Chapter 189 Walking on Three Eggs

Guan Ping’s papermaking technique requires retting bamboo for a long time. Unfortunately, Qiu Shan didn’t know how many days it would take. Fortunately, there is no shortage of bamboo in Jingxiang. Lime and so on are collected slowly.

I heard that after retting, it needs to be manually crushed, then boiled into pulp, and finally uncovered layer by layer. Many Jingzhou soldiers thought it was very interesting, and they came to watch it one after another to see if they could have a chance to be a craftsman—— I know, as soldiers, the treatment of artisans in the army is always a little bit higher. Since this is specially supervised by General Yun, it must be important in the future. Everyone is looking forward to learning a thing or two early, so at least they don’t have to fight in the future .

Le Jin is also very interested in this matter.

As a Jingzhou pastor who aims at being a cultural person, Le Jin is now very interested in all the work that can promote the development of Jingzhou's literary affairs. I heard that this move can greatly promote the development of Jingzhou's culture, and he can earn a lot of money if he succeeds in papermaking in the future. Benefit, Le Jin nodded again and again, smiled and said:

"I didn't expect Tanzhi to have such a skill besides the method of fighting. This makes me underestimate Tanzhi."

Guan Ping said with a smile:
"It's all about the general's scheduling. If this papermaking is successful in the future, this paper can be called Le General Paper, and its name will be left in history."

Le Jin looked up to the sky and laughed, feeling indescribably benefited.

He looked at the green bamboo in the pool with a smile, and suddenly lowered his voice and said:
"Tanzhi, I heard that you have some business with Liu Bei?"

"That's right." Guan Ping said sincerely, "Don't dare to lie to the general, the rewards of our soldiers are all bought and sold with Liu Bei and Sun Quanjiang."

Guan Pingcheng was collaborating with the enemy himself, but Ke Lejin was not displeased at all, instead he smiled.

"Back then, the big men were able to reward soldiers generously, so they were invincible.

Tan Zhi's skills are really good—you guys, can we have a good talk about the matter with Liu Bei...? "

Le Jin is now more and more claiming to be the lord of Jingzhou, he is still a bit close, knowing that he can't beat Sun Liu with the three counties of Nanyang, Xiangyang, and Nanjun, so he started to make peace with Liu Bei.

Let's not fight, let's make a fortune together, what can't we talk about?

Guan Ping smiled and said: "If the general is willing, the subordinates are willing to discuss it carefully with Liu Bei. It's just that Liu Beizhi is helping the Han Dynasty, and he has to go to the north. If he goes to Jingzhou..."

Liu Bei is now in Jingnan, and the Northern Expedition will definitely enter Le Jin's territory, and it will not be the case if Le Jin fights or does not fight.

"Hmph, I'm standing on three eggs now, and even Sun Liucao can't be offended, so what should I do?"

Guan Ping said in a low voice:
"The subordinate has a way, but I don't know..."

"Report!" Guan Ping hadn't expressed his thoughts yet, he only heard the loud sound of gongs in Xiangyang City, and the ear-piercing exclamation spread from the city to Lejin's mansion.

This is Le Jin's method of reporting urgent military information. Only urgent and imminent events can be communicated in this way.

Surprised, he quickly stood up and ran out of the house with Guan Ping.

I saw everyone on the streets of Xiangyang disperse together, and the soldiers carrying the report galloped all the way, and hurriedly delivered an emergency report to Le Jin.

With a cold face, Le Jin slowly opened the military newspaper, read the words on it, and immediately widened his eyes.

"This..." Le Jin's palm trembled violently, and he quickly stuffed the general newspaper into Guan Ping's hand.

"This, this is really a big deal!"

Cao Pi was sulking in Wancheng, and has been drunk and dreaming of death these days, ignoring political affairs.

The weather was hot, and he couldn't sleep lying on the couch after drinking. He heard a burst of footsteps coming from a distance, sat up bored, and roared:
"What to do? Why are you so impatient!"

After a while, Ma Su's voice came from outside the door:

"Young master, something serious happened."

"What's the big deal? Is it okay if Liu Bei calls?"

"It didn't come to us." Ma Di said dryly, "But Liu Bei personally led the army to the north, Liu Ba opened the city and surrendered, and Nanjun has already fallen into Liu Bei's hands."

·
Xu Du, Xun Yu walked into the Prime Minister's Mansion slowly. Along the way, everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion hurriedly bowed and saluted, while Xun Yu kept nodding his head with a smile on his face to signal everyone to avoid the ceremony.

Xun Ling Yixiang.

Xun Yu, who likes to be tidy and fragrant, carries an elegant fragrance wherever he goes, which makes people feel refreshed.

The noble incense is paired with a flawless Confucian robe, and the calm and calm smile on Xun Yu's face is full of noble spirit, giving people a sense of control over the overall situation.

"See Lord Xun Ling." Sima Yi bowed and bowed down.

Xun Yu nodded with a smile, looked at Sima Yi who was quite tired recently, and couldn't help shaking his head slightly:
"Zhongda, the state affairs are difficult, so don't forget to study.

Have you carefully studied the scriptures I gave you before? "

The beads of sweat on Sima Yi's forehead slowly flowed, he smiled wryly and shook his head, saying:
"Recently, I have been busy lately..."

Xun Yu nodded, and solemnly patted Sima Yi on the shoulder:

"Forget it. It may be difficult for Zhong Dazhi to achieve success in classics, but Confucianism and Taoism are pure, and Zhong Da must be tied to him after all."

Sima Yi was sweating profusely when he heard it, so he could only nod his head.

Xun Yu didn't ask Cao Cao why he summoned him, and strode into Cao Cao's mansion. The faint fragrance made Sima Yi think that he was in a dream for a while.

When he came back to his senses and wanted to remind Xun Yu, Xun Yu's figure had disappeared from his sight.

Cao Cao's huge study room is full of all kinds of bamboo slips. Cao Cao just sat there in a pile of bamboo slips and slowly looked up at the sky. Slowly nodded.

Wang Bi's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he also nodded to Xun Yu, signaling him to be careful.

"Wen Ruo is here, sit down."

Cao Cao's voice was extremely hoarse, apparently he had roared angrily just now, and the bamboo slips all over the floor just proved this point.

After Chibi's defeat, Cao Cao often fell into rage for no reason, and Wang Bi was obviously used to it.

Xun Yu found a little space and slowly knelt down on the ground, nodded and said:

"Hearing the prime minister's call, I dare not stay."

"Hehe, Wen Ruo, do you know that Chang Wen is back?" Cao Cao asked as if chatting about family matters.

"I've heard about it." Xun Yu said calmly.

"Oh, then did you hear that Liu Bei broke through Nanjun?"

"I...have heard it too."

The surroundings immediately became extremely quiet.

Wang Bi held his breath, looking at the leader of the Qingliu family, he was a little anxious for a while.

Suddenly, Cao Cao quickly picked up a roll of bamboo slips and threw them in Xun Yu's direction.

Xun Yu didn't dodge or dodge, it gradually fell to the ground with a bang, and scattered all over the ground, but Xun Yu's expression didn't change at all.

Cao Cao grinned, sat down slowly again, shook his head and said:

"It's miserable, it's lonely."

"There is nothing I can do to the world if I ask myself in my life. If you want to help the Han family, you have to have great power in your hands. Otherwise, how can you fight against the treacherous and evil people in all directions?

It's just that people in the world... hey, don't understand Gu's painstaking efforts.

This Liu Bei, hey, Gu, how kind was Gu to him before?Gu appointed him as General Zuo and Yuzhou Shepherd, and asked him to help the Han Dynasty together with Gu, but this person, hey, this person just didn't understand Gu's painstaking efforts, and kept fighting against Gu.

Tell me, does this person deserve to die, does he deserve to die! "

fury.

When Cao Cao was furious, he always had a smirk on his face. This hero who could lead tigers and leopards to chase thousands of miles away at an ordinary age had red eyes, and his skinny palms had bulging veins. He stepped on the table in front of Xun Yu, He stared at Xun Yu in front of him.

But Xun Yu still stood still, like a small boat in a storm, despite the wind and waves, he stood still.

"Liu Bei deserves to die." Xun Yu's words made Cao Cao's tense face a little calmer.

But the next words made Cao Cao's blood pressure soar to the peak.

"Liu Bei deserves to die, but in my humble opinion, we are not irreconcilable.

As long as the prime minister is willing to return the power to the emperor, I can guarantee that Liu Bei will come to see Xu Du.

Gather the power of the prime minister and Liu Bei, the Han Dynasty can prosper, and the thieves can be settled. "

"Bullshit!"

Cao Cao never expected that Xun Yu would dare to say such a thing.

He once suspected that he just heard Xun Yu's heartfelt voice, but Xun Yu's voice was unhurried and unusually calm, making Cao Cao feel like a needle had been pierced into his heart, and it got deeper and deeper.

"Wen Ruo, why did you even betray me?"

"Back then, the Yuan brothers were ambitious, one was engraving a seal on their name, and the other was testing the destiny, so I left Yuan Shao's subordinates and wanted to do something again when the Han Dynasty was in decline.

I swear to the prime minister that we will honor the emperor together and be a courtier forever. No matter what the prime minister has done for so many years, I will secretly tell myself that this is what must be done for the sake of the big man.

But now... Prime Minister, tell me, are you still Hanchen? "

The blue veins on Cao Cao's forehead burst out one by one, and his hand slowly pressed the saber at his waist, making no secret of his killing intent.

But a faint fragrant wind wafted into his nostrils, and Cao Cao's mind suddenly became clearer. His eyes lit up, and he said coldly:
"So Wen Ruo already knew."

Xun Yu nodded lightly:
"Know a thing or two."

Cao Cao came to look for Xun Yu today not simply to vent his anger.

Although he is usually ruthless and extremely irritable, he has always been cautious in dealing with Xun Yu's affairs.

Before the news of Nanjun's loss came, Chang Diao used a fast horse to send the news, saying that Chen Qun had joined Liu Bei, and this time he was here to do a death plan to kill Yunshan. Cao Cao didn't believe it at first, but soon the news of Nanjun's loss It was sent to his desk.

In a rage, Cao Cao quickly believed Chang Diao's previous military situation, and he immediately wanted to kill Chen Qun to vent his anger, but considering Chen Qun's identity, Cao Cao calmed down his anger a little, and decided to put pressure on Xun Yu first , on the condition that Chen Qun be spared, let Xun Yu work hard for himself again.

But never expected that this famous strategist would strike first.

Not only did Cao Cao fail to scare Xun Yu, but he was also angered by Xun Yu's few words.

The leader of the Yingchuan literati obviously had a long-standing grudge against him, and now he finally found a chance to express what he wanted to say.

Now, he was smiling all over his face, while Cao Cao was in a dilemma and was at a loss for a while.

"Okay, sure enough, you did it."
