Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 379 Poor Taishi Ci

Tai Shici of Runan, Yuzhou, did not smell the aroma of wheat.On the contrary, compared with Liu Xie, who caused another storm in Hanoi and attracted the attention of the world, Tai Shici's life in Runan was very pitiful.

The weather in May is the season when it is easy to rain here in Runan.Tai Shici, leaning against an ancient tree, quietly looked at the distant city of Runan, where the sky was low and the clouds were dark, and the continuous spring rain was falling continuously.The fields, mountains and rivers are all covered under a thin silver thread like cow hair.

If Tai Shici was a literati, he would definitely concoct a sad and graceful poem amidst the hazy summer rain and the sound of frogs protruding from the new lotus.However, after all, he was not the kind of literati who felt sorry for the spring. Looking at the soldiers behind him who were as confused as himself and who were about to catch lice in the rainy day, Tai Shici suddenly punched the old tree and was shocked. The whole tree couldn't stop his tiger's power, and it kept shaking.

"The man was born in troubled times, and he should hold a three-foot green blade to stand up to the world, but why sit in the rain?!" Tai Shici yelled loudly, and his resentment spread throughout the mountain.

"Ahem...you're still a young man, so angry...have pity on my old bones. I wanted to live my life in Wancheng, but I didn't expect to be dragged into this rainy land by your majesty, to endure the dampness and poison. harm..." Tai Shici's words alarmed the old man in coir raincoat not far away from him, he seemed to complain that Tai Shici had disturbed his interest, and complained a bit.

After Tai Shici turned around and saw the old man, his sullen face became even more helpless.This person is none other than Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe of Nanyang County, led by General Xuanyi of the Great Han Dynasty.

At the beginning, when Tai Shici was in Beihai, he had already heard Jia Xu's name like thunder.This well-known think tank, with a few words to disrupt the country, almost caused a hundred thousand Xiliang iron cavalry to destroy the century-old dynasty flame on the top of Chang'an City.Fortunately, this person had the Han family in his heart after all, and secretly conspired with the emperor to divide and transform the [-] Xiliang iron cavalry.When the Han Dynasty was in turmoil, it kept the last incense hope of the Han Dynasty.

After that, the rumors about this person seemed to be in the air.Some people say that the secret planning of this person is also indispensable in His Majesty's great achievements in sending troops to the Kanto and defeating Yuan Shu.Tai Shici clearly remembered that even if the emperor himself mentioned Jia Xu, he still had a complicated look on his face...

Therefore, when he entered Nanyang to meet Jia Xu with the emperor's secret order in his arms, Tai Shici thought that he would usher in the peak of his life.Unexpectedly, the first time he saw Jia Xu, he only saw that the old man had already packed two cars of luggage, with a miserable expression on his face, as if he had been exiled by the emperor.

Even at that time, Tai Shici still had a glimmer of hope for Jia Xu.After all, a single sentence almost destroyed a dynasty, and someone who could secretly tease Yuan Shu's 30 troops like rats and ants, wouldn't it be easy to deal with a small Runan County?

But after a month passed, Tai Shici felt: the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

This old man was in the forest of Runan, just like those literati outings, he didn't have any comments on Tai Shici's actions of subduing those bandits.In addition to eating, eating and sleeping every day, I just collect some herbs and cook a pot of herbs that smells very bad at night.Or, simply disappear from time to time, and don't know where to do what.

"Mr. Jia, are you willing to spend time like this when you come to Runan?" After all, Tai Shici did not dare to offend Jia Xu, and still maintained basic respect when speaking.However, judging by the throbbing veins on his face, this trace of respect was no longer sincere.

Jia Xu raised her eyelids, as if she didn't hear Tai Shici's words.But at this moment, Tai Shici's figure suddenly froze, and his whole body tensed up like a cheetah, but after feeling the familiar aura, he restrained his murderous aura again.

Duanmu Zhengshuo emerged from behind an old tree, glanced at Tai Shici who made his hair stand tall, and then showed a strange smile, then leaned over to Jia Xu's ear, and said a word.

After Jia Xu heard this, a gleam of light seemed to flash through his cloudy eyes.Afterwards, he stretched his body a long way, stood up and said, "God bless me, I don't have to be a savage in this forest at last..." After saying this, Jia Xu also looked at Tai Shici, revealing a look of indifference. Weird smile.

Even if Tai Shici was a fool, he knew that things were turning around.To be precise, he knew it after seeing Duanmu Zhengshuo—because Tai Shici knew that Duanmu Zhengshuo did not belong to Jia Xu's trilogy.

When he first came out of Nanyang, Jia Xu did bring 300 elite members with him.Although these people are Kansai men, they don't know how to ride.Under Jia Xu's teaching, these people are proficient in foot combat, bow shooting, and whistle detection. It is because of this elite team that Tai Shici has built up the power of 2000 people under him at the moment.

But Duanmu Zhengshuo gave Tai Shici the feeling that he was much more elite than this elite team.But at the same time, Duanmu Zhengshuo is the kind of guy who restrains his edge, like a sharp edge stuck in a sheath.From the analysis of the phenomenon that Duanmu Zhengshuo brought Jia Xu a sliver of information that would make Jia Xu smile knowingly every time he appeared, Tai Shici knew that he might have encountered the most mysterious Jinyiwei under His Majesty.

"Mr. Jia, is there something we can do?" Tai Shici stepped forward, and Jia Xu was crushed by his powerful body like a ball of toddlers.

"Young man, you are so impatient." Facing Tai Shici's aggressive aura, Jia Xu was still indifferent, but there was still a smile on his face like an old orange peel: "However, it has been silent for a month. , you should really loosen your muscles and bones. I really don't understand that His Majesty sent you such a fierce tiger to deal with a mere Runan."

Finally hearing Jia Xu's affirmative answer, Tai Shici was so excited that he just wanted to punch the old tree again.But after all, he is a general with both wisdom and bravery. After he was happy, he couldn't help asking Jia Xu: "Sir, today is not different from usual. Why did you not let the last general do anything before?"

"Because, Your Majesty, the Battle of Hanoi is over." Seeing Jia Xu nodding and smiling at him, Duanmu Zhengshuo stepped forward and reported the situation to Tai Shici.

But Tai Shici not only didn't understand, but was even more puzzled: what does His Majesty have to do with his here in Runan?
"The relationship is getting bigger..." Jia Xu laughed and said, "Ziyi, you also know that this Yuzhou is the heart of the world, and Runan is the heart of Yuzhou. From this, it can be seen that Runan can be called the 'heart of heaven'. Such a top priority, who doesn't want to get involved?"

Tai Shici nodded, he naturally knew the importance of Runan.But the problem is that this still seems to have nothing to do with the battle of the emperor in Hanoi.

Jia Xu ignored Tai Shici's doubts, and continued to say to himself: "Runan has outstanding people and talents, not to mention the Yuan family of four generations and five princes. There are Xu family, Chen family, Lu family, and so on here. The He family and other well-known families. The Xu family has such famous figures as Xu Jing and Xu Shao. The Chen family has Chen Wen, the governor of Yangzhou who died of illness at the end of last year, and Chen Yu, the governor appointed by Yuan Shu. The Lu family also has Lu Fan and others. , As for the He family, although it is comparable to the first three families, it is also a world-class family."

"These big families, they guard their homes and lands, and the time of countless lives has made them form a piece of Runan. It is difficult for you to make them bow their heads and obey orders just by holding the emperor's edict. Not to mention, now the Quartet is watching. , this Runan has even infiltrated Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao and other forces, and it is intricate. If we act rashly, won't the Han Dynasty be placed on the cusp of the storm?"

Cold sweat broke out on Tai Shici's back, he really didn't consider this point.Indeed, the local aristocratic families in Runan are intertwined, and if there is any trouble, the world will look at it.At that time, the emperor was conspiring against Hanoi. Seeing that the emperor was attacking the north and the south at the same time, the princes had a huge plan, and it was hard to guarantee that they would not feel the same hatred and jointly constrain the Han Dynasty.

The best thing to do is to wait until Hanoi in the north has been settled, and then slowly map it here.On the one hand, the emperor's great victory can be used here to get twice the result with half the effort; on the other hand, if something goes wrong in Runan, the emperor in Guanzhong can adapt to the situation and help.

Having figured this out, Tai Shici looked at Jia Xu's eyes, and began to be truly respectful.The old man seems to be doing nothing, but he has already taken the current situation of the world into his chest.The delicacy of his mind and the keenness of his insight are really breathtaking.

However, the better Jia Xu is, the better he is, the luckier he is?

Thinking of this, Tai Shici couldn't help but asked eagerly: "What should we do, sir?"

"What should I do?" Jia Xu chuckled, "Your Majesty said it well, cold salad! What did you do before, and how do you do this time. But, just make a big one..."
