Chapter 1067: Bribing Jia Xu
Entering the room where Jia Xu stayed, Yuan Tan first looked around the furnishings in the room, and then said to him with a smile: "Zhonglang is really a little shabby when he stays in this kind of house, why don't you go to the mansion with him and stay in the house for a few days?" ”
Smiling slightly, Jia Xu clasped his fists and arched towards Yuan Tan, and said to him: "Son's kindness, I understand it in my heart." It's just that Duke Yuan has already been settled, and if he goes to the prince's mansion in the next place, it won't look good on Duke Yuan's face......"
When Jia Xu said this, Yuan Tan suddenly thought that he was competing with Yuan Shang for the position of Yuan Shao's successor at this time, and it would be really inappropriate not to give Yuan Shao face at this time.
Grinning, Yuan Tan said to Jia Xu: "If it weren't for Zhonglang to mention it, it would be really careless!" ”
"Zhonglang!" Beckoning to the guards who followed the house, and when the guards approached, Yuan Tan stretched out his hand and twisted the corner of the brocade covered on the tray, and said to Jia Xu: "Zhonglang came from afar, and there is nothing to give it to below, I got two beads earlier, and today I gave it to Zhonglang, and it is also a fellowship with Zhonglang!" ”
As he spoke, Yuan Tan reached out and lifted the brocade covering the tray.
When the bright yellow brocade was lifted by Yuan Tan, two bright night pearls appeared in front of Jia Xu.
It's still daytime, and the brilliance of the night pearl looks much dimmer in the sun, but even so, the smooth surface of the two beads still makes Jia Xu secretly praise in his heart.
These two beads are not very large, each is only the size of a thumb's finger, and the surface is smooth, and you can see the rare masterpiece at a glance.
Raising his hand to gesture towards the two beads on the tray, Yuan Tan said to Jia Xu: "These two beads were obtained by accident earlier. The father was very strict in discipline, and such luxurious things were never allowed to play with his brothers. It's also bad to put them in the lower house, so I'll send them to Zhonglang today! ”
"The eldest prince gave such a valuable gift, how dare his subordinates accept it?" He had already seen that Yuan Tan must have come here to bribe him, but Jia Xu still pretended to be surprised, and said to Yuan Tan with both hands: "Such a valuable thing, I don't dare to accept it!" ”
"Zhonglang!" Jia Xu refused to accept the pearl sent by Yuan Tan, Yuan Tan was suddenly anxious, and hurriedly said to him: "This is a good friend with Zhonglang in the next, Zhonglang can't look down on it?" ”
"This ......" Yuan Tan said this, Jia Xu pretended to hesitate, looked at him with an embarrassed face, and then nodded after a while and said very entangledly: "Since Childe said so, I will accept it!" ”
Hearing that Jia Xu was willing to accept his benefits, Yuan Tan was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly said to the guard holding the pearl: "Hurry up for Zhonglang!" ”
The guard holding the tray received Yuan Tan's order, hurriedly answered, strode to a low table in the room, squatted in front of the low table, and put the tray on the table.
First, he picked up a small wooden box on the side of the tray, opened the wooden box, and the guard carefully put the two pearls into the box, and then took the empty tray and stood sideways.
"I just came to visit Zhonglang, and since Zhonglang is inconvenient to go to the house with him, I will say goodbye first!" didn't say too much to Jia Xu about the benefits of the two beads, and when the guard put the beads into the box, Yuan Tan hugged his fists and told Jia Xu to retreat.
"There is Lao Gongzi coming to visit!" hugged his fist and gave Yuan Tan a salute back, but Jia Xu did not keep him and sent him to the door.
It was only after Yuan Tan left under the escort of several guards that Jia Xu returned to the house.
"Zhonglang!" As soon as he entered the house, one of the guards who was in charge of protecting Jia Xu clenched his fists and said to him: "Yuan Shao's two sons are fighting for the right to inherit, and this morning is in dire trouble. Zhonglang accepted the benefits of Yuan Tan at this time, if His Royal Highness knew about it......"
"Inform Your Highness!" With a grin, Jia Xu said to the two guards in the house: "Even if His Highness knows, he won't blame Yu!" ”
After listening to Jia Xu's words, the two guards glanced at each other, both of them at a loss.
"Yuan Shang will definitely come later!" Seeing that the two guards were dazed, Jia Xu smiled and said to them: "The reason why Yuan Shao's son wants to befriend Yu X is because X is an envoy of His Royal Highness. They gave a certain benefit in order to ask His Highness to intervene when Yuan Shao decided who would inherit the inheritance! ”
Jia Xu said something, the two guards could also understand it, but they couldn't figure out the key for a while.
Seeing that they were still a little dazed, Jia Xu said: "His Royal Highness's interference in Hebei's affairs will definitely not be too obvious. The dispute between Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang is insignificant to His Highness. What His Royal Highness wants is that Yuan Xi can go to Luoyang and support Yuan Xi to stabilize the overall situation in the future! As for Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, give some benefits to a certain person, how can a certain person not accept it? ”
Speaking of this situation, if the two guards don't understand it anymore, then they are stupid to the extreme.
The two looked at each other, but neither spoke.
Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang will come to get closer to Jia Xu, maybe Jia Xu didn't guess wrong, but King Qin would ignore the conjecture after learning that he had benefited, in the eyes of the two guards, it was really Jia Xu who was too confident.
Liu Wei, the king of Qin, has been in control of the Great Qin Prefectures since he sat in Luoyang and controlled the lands of Great Qin, and has always had strict control over his subordinate officials.
Anyone who cheats for personal gain, once it is verified, no matter what happens in the background, King Qin will severely punish him, and he has never been soft.
Jia Xu's behavior of accepting benefits was undoubtedly intolerable to King Qin in the eyes of the two guards.
But Jia Xu said that King Qin would not pursue the matter, so that the two guards couldn't figure it out anyway.
Soon after Yuan Tan left, Jia Xu was just about to order the guards to retreat, he wanted to rest in the room for a while, when a voice came from outside the door: "Dare to ask Jia Zhonglang if he is there?" ”
Hearing the sound coming from outside the door, Jia Xu grinned at the two guards and glanced at one of them.
The guard, who saw Jia Xu's eyes, nodded, turned around and walked to the door.
The door opened, and in front of the guards appeared a young man in his twenties.
The young man was not followed by heavily armed guards, but two gorgeously dressed and stunningly beautiful women.
Those two beauties, both of whom are no more than twenty-eight years old, are born like blooming begonia flowers, pure and seductive.
The guards didn't recognize the young man, but Jia Xu did.
Jia Xu in the room saw the young man standing outside the door, and immediately arched his hand towards him with a smile on his face and said, "The third prince is coming, and the subordinates are really scared!" ”
The young son who led the two beautiful characters was Yuan Shao's third son, Yuan Shang.
As soon as Jia Xu greeted him, he hurriedly returned the salute with his fists, and said to Jia Xu with a smile: "I learned that Zhonglang is staying here, and I came to visit here!" ”
"Childe, please come in and talk!" Putting down his hands, Jia Xu gestured to Yuan Shang.
Leading the two pretty little beauties into the house, Yuan Shang, like Yuan Tan who had come earlier, looked around at the furnishings in the house, nodded and said to Jia Xu: "It's also suitable here, but Zhonglang stays alone, it's really deserted!" ”
When he first saw Yuan Shang, Jia Xu already knew what he had sent.
Two young and beautiful girls stood behind Yuan Shang, Jia Xu didn't look at them much, but asked Yuan Shang: "Gongzi is here, I don't know what happened?" ”
"Zhonglang!" Striding in front of Jia Xu, Yuan Shang held his hands, looked at him very affectionately and said, "Zhonglang still remembers, when we were waiting to crusade against Gongsun Zhan, the friendship? ”
Back then, Liu Wei crusaded against Gongsun Zhan, although Jia Xu and the Yuan brothers had also met, they did not have a lot of intersections with each other.
If you talk about friendship, the friendship between Jia Xu and the Yuan brothers is not as deep as Liu Wei and them.
When Yuan Shang said such a thing, Jia Xu understood that he just wanted to use the events of the year to get closer and talk to each other.
Seeing Yuan Shang's intentions, Jia Xu simply came down the slope and got off the donkey, and said to Yuan Shang: "What did Gongzi say, when we were waiting to crusade against Gongsun Zhan, how could we forget the friendship on the battlefield?" ”
When Jia Xu said such words, Yuan Shang was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Zhonglang is really a person who is really affectionate and righteous!" If it were someone else, I am afraid that this kind of friendship would have been forgotten a long time ago! ”
The hand was held by Yuan Shang, Jia Xu just smiled and did not speak.
Yuan Shang saw that the words had already been picked, and Jia Xu was also speaking according to his intentions, and hurriedly said to Jia Xu: "When Zhonglang came to Yecheng, he must have brought his female dependents. How can we survive this long night, we are all men of flesh and blood? ”
"Childe, isn't ......?" As soon as Yuan Shang's words fell, Jia Xu, who had already seen his intentions, blinked his eyes twice, pretended to be blank and asked for half a sentence, his eyes glanced at the two ****** behind him, and then he hurriedly withdrew his gaze and said to Yuan Shang: "The subordinates are panicked!" ”
Finding that Jia Xu was looking at the two ****** behind him, Yuan Shang grinned and said to him: "These two daughters were raised in the mansion, and they originally intended to be taken as concubines in the future. In the next and Zhonglang is an old friend, Zhonglang is alone in Yecheng, how can you see it in the next? How about giving this child to Zhonglang as a concubine today? ”
When Yuan Shang's words fell, the two beautiful women standing behind him saluted Jia Xu in unison.
Although the two women did not speak, they could show endless charm and enchantment.
"How to make it!" Yuan Shang wanted to give the two women to Jia Xu, but Jia Xu hurriedly withdrew the hand he was holding and said: "The son originally wanted to accept him as the daughter of the concubine, how dare the subordinates accept it, this matter must not be!" ”
"Zhonglang!" As soon as Jia Xu's words fell, Yuan Shang pretended to be unhappy, and said to him: "We are old friends, just two women, why did Zhonglang refuse?" ”
"This ......" Yuan Shang said to this point, Jia Xu looked at him with embarrassment, then looked at the two women, hesitated for a moment, and then bowed to him with his fists and said: "The son is generous, and the subordinates have received it!" ”
