Night fell quietly, and the street outside the window was already full of people walking back and forth.

Standing facing the window, Jia Xu put his hands behind his back, as if waiting for someone to come.

Standing behind him were not the two ****** given to him by Yuan Shang, but the two guards who were responsible for protecting him.

Eight white candles were lit on the menorah in the house.

The flames jumping on the white candle lit up the room, and Jia Xu's back was also projected on the windowsill, shaking with the flames.

"Zhonglang, the night is deep, it's time to rest!" Standing behind Jia Xu, a guard clenched his fists and bowed down to remind him.

"It's not here yet!" Jia Xu didn't look back, just said leisurely.

The two guards glanced at each other, both at a loss, not knowing who he was talking about.

"Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan have already come to visit!" Looking at the dark street outside the window, Jia Xu opened his mouth and said softly as if he was explaining to the two guards: "If Yuan Shao is already hostile to His Highness, how can the two of them dare to visit in private?" Yuan Xi will definitely come, but I'm afraid it will be ...... tonight."

As he spoke, Jia Xu shook his head, turned to the two guards and said, "Call the two beautiful girls sent by Yuan Shang, and ask them to sleep tonight!" ”

"No!" Clenching his fists, the two guards responded in unison, and then exited Jia Xu's room.

At the same time, Yecheng Yuan Xi Mansion.

Yuan Xi, who learned that Jia Xu had come to invite the couple to Luoyang, walked back and forth in the back garden with his hands behind his back, with an entangled look on his face.

"Husband!" was walking back and forth, Yuan Xi heard a sweet female voice behind him.

This female voice was as crisp and graceful as a nightingale singing, and Yuan Xi, who was full of annoyance, suddenly felt a sense of comfort all over his body after hearing this soft call.

Turning around and smiling at the woman who walked towards him, Yuan Xi asked softly, "Why hasn't Madame rested yet?" ”

"The concubine saw her husband walking back and forth in the courtyard, as if she was restless, and she was quite uneasy in her heart, so she came to take a look!" When he arrived in front of Yuan Xi, the woman Shi Shiran gave him a salute.

The woman was wearing a moon-white Luo skirt, her hair was pulled up high, and her snow-white face was as crystal clear as the bright moon.

The night is hazy, and her graceful posture, in the misty night, is like a white lotus in a lotus leaf, fresh and elegant, revealing the enchantment of continuing to be elegant.

She is not another person, it is Zhen Mi who Liu Wei said earlier that she wanted to meet.

Holding Zhen Mi's fragrant shoulder, Yuan Xi looked up at the starry sky, sighed softly, and said to her: "King Qin wants you and me to go to Luoyang, and I don't know how many accidents will happen when I go......"

"The husband and the king of Qin are old friends, could it be that the king of Qin will still harm the husband?" Being held in Yuan Xi's arms, Zhen Mi whispered quietly.

Looking up at the night sky, Yuan Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, as if talking to himself: "Madame is naturally beautiful, I'm just worried about ......"

Only halfway through the words, Yuan Xi sighed softly and said to Zhen Mi: "That's it, my father has already sent people to give an order, asking you and me to go to Luoyang, and go to Luoyang to do some more things!" ”

Snuggled up to Yuan Xi's chest, Zhen Mi didn't say anything.

She also knows that she is naturally beautiful, and since she married Yuan Xi, she has been coveted by many heroes.

If it weren't for marrying Yuan Xi, I'm afraid that some heroes would have come to the door a long time ago.

married Yuan Xi, and the friendship between husband and wife was also quite compatible, snuggling in Yuan Xi's arms, Zhen Mi also sighed softly in her heart.

In Yecheng, Jia Xu was busy welcoming Yuan Xi and his wife to Luoyang, and Liu Wei in Luoyang City, since Jia Xu left, also gathered with Tian Feng and others every day to discuss how to keep Hebei.

The night was dark, and in the main hall of the front yard of the palace, Liu Wei sat in the first seat, and there were no generals of the Qin army sitting in the hall, just a staff member under his command.

"The Yuan army was defeated in the first battle of Guandu!" Furrowing his brows and looking around at the people in the hall, Liu Wei said to them: "This king intends to summon Yuan Xi and his wife, explain to Yuan Xi that Yuan Xi, and wait until Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan compete for Hebei in the future, and ask him to raise troops to mediate in the middle, so as not to take advantage of Cao's army to enter, what do you think?" ”

"Your Highness!" As soon as Liu Wei's words fell, Pang Tong stood up, clasped his fists and bowed to him and said: "In the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao's army was defeated, which is not a good thing for His Highness!" ”

Pang Tong's words made Liu Wei feel a little puzzled in his heart, looked at him and asked, "Why did Shi Yuan say this?" Yuan Gong sits in Hebei, and this king can be wholeheartedly careless, if it is ......"

"Yuan Shao is powerful, and even Cao Cao is quite jealous of him!" Putting down the fists they were holding, Pang Tong and Liu Wei looked at each other and said: "In the battle of Guandu, the Yuan family is weakened by Cao Cao, as long as His Royal Highness keeps Hebei at that time and does not let that Cao Cao swell too much, it will save a lot of worries in the future to collect the Yuan family!" ”

Staring at Pang Tong, Liu Wei's brows twisted slightly, and he asked: "With Shiyuan's meaning, the battle of Guandu and Cao Cao's growth are a good thing for this king?" ”

"The extremes of things must be reversed!" Bowing slightly, Pang Tong continued: "Yuan Shao is weakened by Cao Cao, if His Highness keeps Hebei, he will attack Cao Cao in the future, although it will take a lot of Zhou Zhang, but it is also much stronger than destroying Cao Cao and then fighting against the powerful Yuan clan!" ”

Pang said in a unified sentence and stunned Liu Wei.

Looking around at the people in the hall, except for the look on Frustrated Professor's face, which was quite unnatural, including Tian Feng, almost everyone was expressionless, thinking about the truth in what Pang Tong said.

"Under Cao Cao, Xun Yu, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others are all capable ministers who govern the world!" Raising his hand and pinching his chin, Liu Wei frowned tightly, and was silent for a moment before saying: "Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Xuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xu Chu, Xu Huang and others are also ten thousand enemies, if you want to defeat Cao Cao, I'm afraid it will not be easy!" ”

"The courage of the horseman should be overcome on the battlefield!" With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Pang Tong hugged his fists again and said to Liu Wei: "The person Cao Cao relies on is the one under his command. If Your Highness ......"

When Pang Tong said this, Liu Wei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "If you uproot all the ministers under his command, why don't Cao Cao break it!" ”

"Your Highness is wise!" Liu Wei said what he wanted to say, but didn't say, Pang Tong hurriedly hugged his fists and bowed in praise.

"Your Highness!" Pang Tong praised Liu Wei, Tian Feng stood up, hugged his fists and said: "Cao Cao's matter should be delayed, but Yuan Xi will be able to reach Luoyang in a few days, can His Highness be sure to persuade him not to participate in the battle between Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan?" ”

"Not sure!" Shaking his head, Liu Wei showed a trace of entanglement in his expression, and said to Tian Feng: "With Yuan Hao's knowledge, is Yuan Xi with Yuan Tan or with Yuan Shang?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness, Yuan Shao's third son, only Yuan Xi doesn't like to fight!" Maintaining the posture of clenching his fists and bowing, Tian Feng said to Liu Wei: "Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are competing for Yuan Shao's family business, which has long been a self-evident fact. So far, Yuan Xi has not shown his intentions, and the two of them are deliberately trying to win over. His Royal Highness invited him to Luoyang, thinking that Yuan Xi would return to Hebei, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang would definitely be more deliberately wooed, and His Royal Highness's move would make Hebei more lively than before! ”

It has been some time since he joined Liu Wei, and Tian Feng's sense of belonging to Yuan Shao is gradually being replaced by the sense of belonging that Liu Wei brought to him.

Nodding, Liu Wei pinched his chin and was silent for a long time before he asked Pang Tong: "Shi Yuan just said that the person Cao Cao relies on is his staff, I don't know what Shi Yuan has to do, how to get rid of his staff?" ”

"Your Highness!" He hugged his fists again and bowed to Liu Wei, and Pang Tong said to him: "There are a few virtuous people in the world, but Cao Cao is full of talents!" If His Royal Highness doesn't talk about Cao Cao's staff being removed, he will compete for the world in the future, and I am afraid that he will suffer a big loss! ”

"How to get rid of it? When to remove? What Pang Tong said was exactly what Liu Bian had been thinking about for many days, and as soon as his words fell, Liu Bian couldn't wait to ask.

"Between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, there must be another battle!" Straightening up, Pang Tong looked at Liu Wei and said, "Guo Jia, Xun You and the others should not be used by His Highness, so why don't they be removed!" But if you want to get rid of them, you can only start when Cao Cao breaks Yuan Shao again! ”

After listening to Pang Tong's words, Liu Wei's eyes narrowed slightly.

Guo Jia, Xun You, Cheng Yu and others acted under Cao Cao, and the Qin army fought with Cao Jun, but it was also because of these people that they never made much achievements.

Even the little Shouchun and Xia Cai have repeatedly gained and lost in the battle with Cao Jun.

But Liu Wei always felt that Guo Jia and others were rare talents, and it would be a pity if they were killed lightly.

Frowning slightly, and after a moment of silence, Liu Biancai waved his hand to Pang Tong and said: "This matter can be discussed later, you wait for a good student to prepare, and when Yuan Xi comes to Luoyang, how to persuade him to mediate between Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang when Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are fighting, instead of supporting one side!" ”
