The potter wasn't in a hurry to enter Danyang County, he just waited for Wu Jing to arrive, and then designed a bunch of them to clean up the two of them, so as to achieve the effect once and for all.

But the plan did not change quickly, and the pottery merchant was not in a hurry to go to Danyang County to meet Zhou Xin, but Zhou Xin came to him in person.

What surprised Tao Shang was that Zhou Xin did not come here with an army. He only brought dozens of horses to meet Tao Shang, and he also brought something unexpected to Tao Shang.

The seal and ribbon of Danyang County Sheriff.

Seeing Zhou Xin put the sheriff's seal and ribbon in front of him, the pottery merchant couldn't help being messed up.

How is this going?

This guy, doesn't he play his cards according to the routine?There must be a conspiracy!

Meeting the potter's suspicious eyes, Zhou Xin smiled sincerely.

"Mr. Tao, don't get me wrong. This is not a trick, it's a real handover. The governor of Danyang County, Mr. Zhou, will not sit down and let you. Don't be surprised, Mr. Zhou. What Mr. Zhou said is from the heart. If there are false , you must die from the bombardment of the sky."

The potter didn't dare to say that he was a god-given talent who could see through the sincerity or falsehood of everyone in the world.

But when he faced Zhou Xin's clear gaze, Tao Shang could clearly feel that what the other party said was indeed the truth, the truth from the heart.

"Mr. Zhou, why is this?" The pottery merchant couldn't understand, how could Zhou Xin, the head of a county, give up his foundation so easily?

For a person who has been in a high position for a long time, what is the difference between killing him and killing him?

Zhou Xin laughed when he heard this, and said, "Young Master Tao, do you want to hear my truth?"

The pottery merchant nodded heavily and said, "I think so."

"It's very simple. I just don't want the people of Danyang County to suffer war for no reason because of our fight."

The potter was dumbfounded.

It's a very simple truth, anyone can tell the truth when the upper lip touches the lower lip.

But how many people in high positions can really do it?

Standing in front of him is a person who truly deserves the respect and admiration of potters.

"The high righteousness of Zhou Fujun really makes Shang feel ashamed." The pottery merchant saluted Zhou Xin deeply from the bottom of his heart, and then asked: "It's just that I don't understand. Since Zhou Fujun doesn't want to cause war and implicate the people, , then why did you let Danyang County belong to me instead of Wu Jing?"

Zhou Xin laughed when he heard the words, and told the truth: "First, Zhou doesn't like Yuan Shu's behavior. I am on good terms with Yuan Benchu ​​and Cao Mengde on weekdays. A while ago, when Meng De came to Yangzhou, I also helped him recruit four thousand Danyang elite soldiers to go back. "

Upon hearing this, the potter's smile became a little stiff.

No matter what you say, your kindness and good intentions may cause Cao Cao to run naked in the end. When those thousands of Danyang soldiers rebelled that night, Brother Meng De would probably lose his underpants.

Will your elder brother Cao hate you to death?

Zhou Xin didn't seem to notice the change in Taoist's expression, and continued: "And you are a vassal of the original, and I heard that you are more close to Meng De, so, from the perspective of someone Zhou, I hope you can Take over Danyang County, second, in name, you are the governor of Danyang County appointed by the imperial court after all, in name you are more justifiable than both me and Wu Jing, third."

Zhou Xin paused, showing an appreciative smile.

"The name of Mr. Taiping, no one in the world knows it now? You can take over Danyang County to ensure the peace of the people in one side, so Zhou is really relieved."

After hearing Zhou Xin's three reasons, the potter's heart was greatly shocked.

Even after hearing the name of Mr. Taiping from his mouth, the potter didn't feel so harsh anymore.

The plan is not as fast as changing. The Tao merchant came to Danyang County this time, and he wanted to win Zhou Xin and Wu Jing in one fell swoop, but judging from the current situation, the prefect Zhou Xin and Zhou seemed to be unable to touch him anymore.

No matter how thick-skinned the pottery was, he was too embarrassed to act against such a generous and selfless person.

People, after all, still have to show some face.

"Mr. Zhou gave Danyang County to me, but where are you going?" The pottery merchant asked Zhou Xin concerned.

Zhou Xin pondered for a while, then smiled and said, "Kaiji is my hometown. I heard that when you came to serve as governor of Danyang, Wang Lang also served as prefect of Kuaiji. Since you are familiar with Wang Lang, why not take this opportunity to go back to your hometown in Kuaiji, and see how you can be a helper for Wang Lang, so that you can spend your days leisurely, wouldn’t it be beautiful?"

The pottery merchant was silent for a long while, showing embarrassment for the first time.

"Mr. Zhou, for my sake, I really wronged you."

Zhou Xin laughed when he heard the words, waved his hands, and said, "Young master, what are you talking about? The trivial matters are nothing to worry about. The city in Dahanzhou County does not belong to someone from Zhou. Why are you talking about grievances? If the county treats the people well and protects the peace of one side, it will not be in vain that Zhou has worked so hard today."

The pottery merchant bowed his hands solemnly to Zhou Xin, and said: "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Tao is not talented, so you must remember what you taught me today."

Zhou Xin nodded in relief when she heard the words, and said: "When you are ready, Zhou will explain the affairs of the county to you. On Yuan Benchu's side, Zhou will write a letter to explain it to you. You don't have to worry about him talking to you. Dissatisfied, but Wu Jing is about to lead his troops to Danyang County, when the time comes, the two of you may have to have a good confrontation, alas, but the people of Danyang County have suffered."

Hearing this, the pottery merchant suddenly rolled his eyes, and slightly revised his previous plan in the future.

"Mr. Zhou, the matters in this county cannot be handed over for the time being. You have to help Tao to sit for a few more days for the post of county guard."

Zhou Xin couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words, and said, "My lord, what does this mean?"

The pottery merchant laughed and said, "Master Zhou is afraid that I will fight with Wu Jing and hurt the people of Danyang County, but now Tao has a way to take down Wu Jing without bloodshed and resolve the dispute in Danyang County. Intangible, but I need your cooperation, I wonder if you can play a play with me for the sake of the people of Danyang County?"

Zhou Xin was silent for a while, then thought for a moment and said: "Young master, can you really guarantee that you can take down Wu Jing without bloodshed?"

Tao Shang smiled, shook his head and said: "I'm talking about the basics, there will definitely be some bloodshed, but compared to hand-to-hand combat, it must be much better, at least it will never be a large-scale war confrontation. And Wu Jing should be the only one who was cheated."

"You asked me to cheat Wu Jing for you?" Zhou Xin frowned.

Tao Shang suddenly became nervous. Zhou Xin seemed to be a real gentleman. If he didn't help, if he turned around and confronted Wu Jing head-on, not to mention the damage to the soldiers and horses, he would inevitably offend Yuan Shu again.

Not worth it!Yuan Shu and himself will have a battle sooner or later, but the potter doesn't think it's now.

Zhou Xin closed her eyes and thought about it quietly for a long time.

"Okay, let's make a hole." Zhou Xin sighed and said, "Since Mr. Tao dared to promise Zhou that he would not harm the people, then why not help you deal with Wu Jing when Zhou is about to leave office? It can be regarded as Zhou’s last contribution to the people of Danyang County, but remember not to do too much, son, tell me, what should Zhou do?”

The Tao merchant was relieved when he heard the words. Although Zhou Xin is a gentleman, he is not the kind of stubborn and stupid person who can distinguish priorities.

Stretching out his hand, he pointed at the seal and ribbon of Danyang County Sheriff that Zhou Xin had sent him, and the pottery merchant said slowly: "Please, Mr. Zhou Fu, just like delivering the seal and ribbon to Tao today, when Wu Jing arrives, give this seal and ribbon to Wu Jing again." Send it over, and then hand it over step by step, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

Chapter 186 The New Prefect

Wu Jing's army had already passed Shucheng at this moment, heading straight for Wanling County, the seat of Danyang County.

For taking office this time, Wu Jing is full of confidence, because behind him, there is the support of Yuan Shu, the eldest son of the fourth generation and third lord of the Yuan family, and the later general Yuan Shu.

Wu Jing felt very honored to be able to expand the territory for the Yuan family's son-in-law.

Of course, Yuan Shu is also very interesting to their family. Wu Jing’s brother-in-law Sun Jian has just been played by Yuan Shubiao as the governor of Yuzhou, and he was immediately entrusted by Yuan Shu with the important task of Danyang County Guard to open up the gate of Yangzhou for Yuan Shu. Both brother-in-law and brother-in-law No, such honors are rare.

Yuan Shu even lent him the soldiers and horses to seize Danyang County. If he hadn't known that Yuan Shu loved Mrs. Feng very much, Wu Jing would even suspect that the reason why Yuan Shu used him and his brother-in-law Sun Jian so much was because Yuan Shu had a crush on his sister.

When Wu Jing's soldiers and horses marched not far from Danyang County, they suddenly saw the army Sima behind him and said loudly to him: "Fu Jun, what's going on in front of you?"
