Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 217 The gangster comes from the east
Huang Zu was in a bad mood recently. When Bai Tu appointed Sun Ce as the prefect of Danyang, he expected this day to come, but he didn't expect Yuan Shu to finish his game so quickly!
Sure enough, in the spring of this year, after Bai Tu made a righteous speech to Liu Biao and his troops, he began to mobilize troops and generals against Jingzhou. Among them, Sun Ce led the troops along the Jiangxia route.

Huang Zu never thought of surrender...

It's not that he has much backbone, but that Sun Ce is Sun Jian's son, and Sun Jian died in his hands.

Even if he surrenders, Sun Ce will not let him see Bai Tu!

What's more, Bai Tu's reason for declaring war also included one of Huang Zu's skills in killing court officials - it was Sun Jian who was hiding the jade seal secretly at that time, so he intercepted it halfway, okay?

Huang Zu also understood that talking to Bai Tu about this kind of truth would only be a waste of words, and the right way was to actively prepare for war!
He has been in Jiangxia for so many years, and he has not cultivated his moral character. At that time, Sun Jian, the fierce tiger from the east of the Yangtze River, was here. It was not that easy for Sun Ce to get in.

It's just... Liu Biao's fellow was distracted by him at this time and sent a guy who wasn't troublesome but very annoying - Mi Heng.

Although this guy is famous, Huang Zu always felt that when he talked to him, he seemed to look down on him!

Mi Heng, courtesy name Zhengping, was the number one barrister in the Eastern Han Dynasty and a part-time taunting master.

In the original history, he was a famous scholar recommended to Cao Cao by Kong Rong, and he was very famous in Yunei.

He was proud of his talent, and left behind the allusion of "naked and scolding a thief" - from the perspective of Cao Cao being a "Han thief", Mi Heng scolded him very much. Mi Heng was also praised a lot in the novel, but... What Mi Heng scolded did not make sense.

Normally, it would be enough to scold Cao Cao for his ambitions towards the Han Dynasty, but Mi Heng opened his mouth and said that Cao Cao has no men, Xun Yu is only worthy of mourning, Xun You can only guard the grave, Cheng Yu should go to watch the clock, and Guo Jia can write sour poems. , Zhang Liao is not bad as a drummer, Xu Chu should go to herd cattle, Le Jin can read notices, Li Dian's footsteps should go to deliver messages, Xiahou Dun can only protect himself, Cao Ren is only good at asking for money, and finally there is a sentence - nothing else The ones mentioned are not as good as the above, they only have a mouth to eat!
Moreover, he compares himself to "knowing everything about astronomy and geography, which is comparable to the ancient Mingjun and puts Confucius to shame". In short, he has nothing in common with you common people!

Even though Cao Cao was brave enough, Mi Heng was so angry that Zhang Liao on the side wanted to go up and chop him, but Cao Cao stopped him, but in order to humiliate Mi Heng, he asked him to play drums for fun... Then, Mi Heng escaped. Clothes, beating drums and cursing at the same time, with rhythm.

However, Cao Cao is indeed a person who has suffered losses - because the Yanzhou scholars mocked him as the eunuch's grandson, Cao Cao went on a killing spree in Yanzhou. As a result, the Yanzhou scholars took advantage of his attack on Xu and directly turned against Lu Bu.

Cao Cao remembered this lesson. Even if he was scolded as a grandson this time, Cao Cao didn't do anything to Ni Heng. He just sent him to Liu Biao, apparently to persuade Liu Biao to surrender.

On the one hand, Liu Biao is disgusted, but on the other hand, he also wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife!
To say that Mi Heng is worthy of being a "danger + troll", even the white picture effect did not change his life trajectory much.

It was just that the excuse Cao Cao sent to Jingzhou was changed. When the imperial court granted Baitu the "Marquis of Chu", Liu Biao sent people to Xudu to protest. After that...the envoy Cao Cao sent was Mi Heng!

Ordinarily, if Mi Heng couldn't stand Cao Cao's ambition, he should have some affection for Liu Biao, who was born in a clan?

Although Liu Biao's clan origin is far away from that of the current emperor, and can be traced back to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the Western Han Dynasty, he is still a son of the Liu family.

However, Mi Heng, as a combat troll among trolls, secretly ridiculed Liu Biao and had sarcastic words when he met him. Liu Biao was so angry that he sent him to Jiangxia.

Liu Biao was not stupid. Cao Cao was afraid of killing him and losing his reputation, so wasn't Liu Biao afraid?

Sent to Jiangxia and killed by Huang Zu - this is probably a chain of contempt. Cao Cao despises Liu Biao, and Liu Biao also despises Huang Zu, even though... the latter two have some vassal relationship.

But in Huang Zu's case, Mi Heng said something that really showed his level!

Huang Zu asked Mi Heng what remarkable people there were in Xu City. Mi Heng's answer in the novel is - there is a great talent Kong Rong and a small talent Yang Xiu, but other than that they are all useless...

Tsk tsk, you can probably tell his level by looking at these two people he admires.

As for now, Huang Zu asked Mi Heng the same question at the banquet, and Mi Heng said directly: "After Wen Ju went south, half of the Central Plains Wen Dao also went!"

Huang Zu didn't need to be reminded...where is the other half?The other half is him, Mi Heng!

More importantly, Huang Zu couldn't understand the situation and asked specifically, "How do you think I compare with Prime Minister Cao?" Naturally, he was humiliated by Ni Heng.

"You? You are looking forward and backward when facing a mere white figure. How can you be so aggressive at all?" Mi Heng said directly.

Huang Zu was so angry that he wanted to kill Mi Heng on the spot. Fortunately, there were some differences in history this time. Huang Zu's eldest son Huang She interceded in time to save Mi Heng - he was already Mi Heng's gangmate.

Being stopped by his son, Huang Zu calmed down a bit and knew how to think about the pros and cons.

Think about Mi Heng's journey, from Xudu to Xiangyang, and then to Echeng...Why do you live until now?
Huang Zu felt that he could not be taken advantage of, so he laughed and said: "Hahaha, Zhengping, you are right! In fact, I am testing you... Sure enough, you are so courageous, I will give you an important task! You are not Are you saying that I dare not declare war on Bai Tu? Okay, then I will send you to declare war on the Han thieves who deceive the world and steal their reputation...we will set off tonight!"

Huang Zu said that he had already seen through Liu Biao's little idea, and... he confidently took Bai Tu as the downstream of his chain of contempt.

So, shortly after Sun Ce saw the "Five-Toothed Ship" and its supporting fleet, and was ordering the navy to run in, a scout came to report that there was a small boat coming from upstream, claiming to be Huang Zu's envoy.

Although Sun Ce hated Huang Zu so much that he could eat his flesh and sleep on his skin, since he was an envoy, Sun Ce went out of his way to see him.

"Are you Huang Zu's subordinate?" Sun Ce asked, sitting firmly in the Chinese army's tent.

"Huang Zu is just a clay statue god in the temple, how can he control the sun, moon, dragon and phoenix?" Mi Heng said with a curl of his lips.

Sun Ce: ? ? ?
Sun Ce was thinking about whether to call the military doctor over.

Zhou Yu stood aside and interjected, "Hehe, I've heard the name of Pingyuan Mi Heng for a long time, today...it's better to meet you than to be famous."

Sun Ce thought secretly: Is he famous?Why haven't I heard of it?

However, after working with Zhou Yu for a long time, Sun Ce also knew what Zhou Yu meant. After Zhou Yu secretly urged him with his eyes, he still said: "Ah! It turns out to be Mi Heng, disrespectful."

"It's just... since you disdain Huang Zu so much, why did you send a letter of war to Huang Zu?" Sun Ce asked.

"Haha, I saw through that Huang Zu was fierce in appearance and said that he did not dare to declare war on Duke Bai. Who would have expected that he was not only fierce in appearance but also foolish and irritable, so he actually asked me to send him a letter of war." Mi Heng said disdainfully.

Sun Ce: ...

Are you trying to block both ends?If the other party hadn't been Huang Zu, Sun Ce would have sympathized with him.

"So I can write a letter to prevent my elder brother from misunderstanding." Sun Ce said kindly.

It's a pity that he doesn't know Mi Heng yet. When he heard what he said, Mi Heng glared and said, "Send a letter? What kind of letter did you send? If Bai Tu really deserves his reputation, he will naturally tolerate me and recognize me. If he It is difficult to live up to his reputation, let alone a letter of war to Huang Zu. Even if I, Ni Heng, can humiliate him on behalf of all the people in the world, why not?"

Mi Heng is about the same age as Bai Tu and Sun Ce. His clothes and boots look very old, and his long hair is tied behind his back with just an old hairband. However, when it comes to bullying or trolling others, he can stretch his neck as far as he can. It was two fists long and looked...alive.

Sun Ce was also angered by this little brat, and said with a smile: "You are so virtuous and capable, you are worthy of scolding my elder brother, aren't you?"

"Me? I know astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom, but Yao and Shun can't match me!" You Heng said, poking his neck.

"Oh, so... besides sending letters to Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Huang Zu, what else have you done?" Sun Ce dug his ears and blew frivolously.

"You... hum, a blind beggar on the roadside, how can you recognize a precious jade? I wonder if the white picture will be any different. Now seeing how his subordinates are acting like this, I'm afraid they are just trying to gain fame." Mi Heng stretched his neck even more. , there was a look of excitement in his eyes, it seemed...it was very satisfying for him to troll people?
"I don't know if Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Huang Zu are blind beggars, but do you know what is the biggest difference between my eldest brother and them?" Sun Ce calmed down instead, his face and eyes were cold.

"Is it more suitable to be an actor?" Mi Heng and Sun Ce looked at each other, and I have to say that Mi Heng is not weaker than others in terms of courage.

The actor, that is, the old actor...

There are rumors in the Central Plains and Jingzhou that Bai Tu not only indulged himself in watching dances and listening to operas in Jiangdong, he even doted on the actors and officials. He often ignored government affairs and hung out with the actors. Some people have also seen him interacting with the actors in person without cultivating his dignity and morality. Let's sing together!
There will be rumors of this in the Central Plains and Jingzhou. Needless to say, it is known that Cao Cao and Liu Biao are secretly promoting factors. Mutual slander is also a common method among princes. If Bai Tu's reputation is worse, they even dare to say that Bai Tu was born. Eat people's hearts.

However, these words are not unfounded. During the Chinese New Year this year, Bai Tu used the excuse of "having fun with the people" to specially hire actors from Jiangdong, Huainan, and even from Central Plains, Guanzhong, and Jingzhou to go to Jinling. It was indeed true that he had He personally intervened in their rehearsals, and even now there is a play "Peacock Flies Southeast" in Jiangdong and Huaiyang.

At first, Yan Xiang, who had taken refuge in the General's Mansion, went to tell Bai Tu a story about King Zhou doting on Ling Guan...

However, within two months, Yan Xiang apologized specifically to Bai Tu - Lao Yan not only dared to say it, but also dared to admit that he had said something wrong!
He saw the role these actors played among the people, understood that Bai Tu was not for pleasure, and also realized Bai Tu's intentions, so he apologized to Bai Tu specifically.

Not only did Bai Tu not blame him, but instead rewarded Brocade and asked him to continue to "dare to speak" in the future.

But Mi Heng didn't know this, he had only heard some rumors, so he used this matter as a way to ridicule Baitu!

"No, the biggest difference between my eldest brother and them is that they don't dare to kill you because of your reputation, but my eldest brother will only avoid killing you because of the kindness in his heart. Your reputation is worthless in front of my eldest brother, and... ...As long as you dare to say this in front of people in Jinling or anywhere in Yangzhou, the people will beat you to death first." Sun Ce stared at him and said.

"Oh? So the public security in Yangzhou is very poor? That's right. Wang Lang can only talk and talk, and the Ministry of Punishment doesn't know what to say. It's normal for this to happen!" Mi Heng's bar blossomed.

Sun Ce really began to think about whether he should be him here, so as not to go to Jinling, and the elder brother would be even more troubled!
