There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Mrs. Huang jumped her feet angrily, and she slapped Huang Zhong fiercely: "Damn old man, what are you doing in front of outsiders?"

Huang Zhong's temper also came up: "Don't stop me...you just do it, let the old man see! Show your strength as a real man, and let the old man see you."

Huang Xu stopped crying all of a sudden.

He squinted at Huang Zhong, then picked up the simple knife, and slashed at his neck for a while, seeing that Madam Huang's face was pale and her lips were trembling.

"Forget it." Huang Xu casually threw the simple knife on the ground, and then leaned his head against the soft bed: "Today is an auspicious day, so it is not suitable to see blood. After today is over, I will put my head in the water basin and suffocate myself tomorrow." .”

After finishing speaking, Huang Xu waved at the maids and asked them to carry him into the house.

Mrs. Huang hurriedly followed Huang Xu in, not knowing what the two of them were going to whisper.

Huang Zhong cupped his hands at the potter, and said: "I made the Prime Minister laugh, this old man's son... Alas, he has been acting like this since he was a child, and he behaves like a little girl all day. He doesn't look like a man at all."

The pottery merchant tried his best to hold back the feeling of wanting to be happy, and said: "Every family has its own difficulties. General Huang, don't be too anxious, just adjust it slowly in the future."

Huang Zhong shook his head helplessly, and said: "I'm afraid I can't continue to train him slowly. If this continues, this child will probably be useless...Prime Minister, I would like to ask you for a favor, may I?"

After saying this sentence, the pottery merchant suddenly coughed a few times.

With his eyes closed, he also knew what Huang Zhong wanted to say.

"Well, before I came here, Guo Jia seemed to say that he had something important to discuss with me? Didn't he?" The pottery merchant asked Ah Fei.

Ah Fei is not slow to react now, he nodded hastily and said: "That's right, there is such a thing."

The two turned around and ran outside, but Huang Zhong didn't give it in vain after living a long time.

He suddenly stretched out his pliers-like palm, and firmly grasped the potter's wrist, preventing him from moving half a step.

"The old man has already agreed to the prime minister. From now on, I will serve the prime minister, but I really lack experience, so I ask the prime minister to recruit him into the account, and experience with him with the old man, so as to help him change. This bitch has a chirping personality!"

The potter turned his head wanting to cry, but said, "Is this really necessary? Is it necessary!"

Huang Zhong nodded vigorously: "There must be."

……

After leaving the Huang's mansion, as soon as he went out, he saw Guo Jia standing under the steps, looking up at the sky, as if he was thinking about something.

The potter asked Guo Jia strangely, "What are you doing standing here?"

Guo Jia turned to look at the potter, and said with a smile, "Of course there is some information that needs to be notified to the Prime Minister."

"what news?"

Guo Jia cupped his hands and said, "You donkey sent a message from the north, it's about Yuan Shao's side."

As soon as he heard that it was about Yuan Shao, the potter immediately regained his spirits.

Guo Jia began to report for Tao Shanghui: "Tai Shici was stationed in Pengcheng and led the Xuzhou army to resist the attack of Yuan Shao's generals Jiao Chu and Zhang Nan. machine."

Tao Shang nodded. Although Yuan Shao was wise, he still lacked courage at the critical moment. Confronting Liu Biao himself was, in a certain sense, the best chance for him to go all-in on Xuzhou.

Since he didn't seize this opportunity now, the next step is to take the lead and win Hebei.

After thinking clearly, the pottery merchant asked Guo Jia again, "Apart from this incident, is there any movement in Hebei?"

Guo Jia said to the potter: "You Lvzi asked him not only to investigate the military and political changes in Hebei, but also to investigate the movements of the Yuan family. The current Yuan family is extremely turbulent. It is reported that Yuan Shao's body It's not very good, besides, his eldest son Yuan Tan has already arrived in Bingzhou with Gao Gan."

6 Chapter Fifty: The Guardian of the Son of Heaven

"Yuan Shao's health is not good?" The pottery merchant thought to himself for a while: "Yes, the battle of Guandu was a huge blow, and most people would already be depressed and suffocate to death after receiving such a blow. Well, Yuan Shao only affected his health, which already shows that he has a relatively strong will."

The Battle of Guandu was like an ordinary person who suddenly lost all the savings that his family had saved for decades. Once it was fought back to before liberation, and it was easy to die in a flash of fire, it was not alarmist.

But judging from the current situation, Yuan Shao, who was beaten back before liberation, is still quite strong, not only refused to admit defeat, but also has the potential to make a comeback.

If it were Huang Xu, he would have hanged himself to death.

"It seems that it's time to march to Hebei." The pottery merchant thought for a moment, then turned to Guo Jia and said.

Guo Jia also agreed: "Now that Liu Biao has been severely injured, and the forces around Jingzhou are ready to move, it is a great opportunity for the Northern Expedition. The world is suffering more than Hebei. If this gives Yuan Shao a chance to breathe, once he recovers in the future Come on, the land of Xuzhou will have endless troubles."

The pottery merchant nodded in agreement, and suddenly said: "It's just that there is one matter right now, I don't know how to solve it, please give me an idea."

Guo Jia raised his eyebrows: "What shameful things are you doing?"

Tao Shang was so angry that he wished he could kick him away.

Who did something shameful?

"Don't talk nonsense, it's about me fighting Liu Biao this time!"

Guo Jia asked suspiciously: "Didn't you already win the battle? Liu Biao was cooped up in Xiling City and dared not come out. What are you dissatisfied with?"

The pottery merchant shook his head, and said: "Winning is winning... If I were the governor of Danyang, let's finish beating up this turtle son, then go to drink some wine in a leisurely manner, and put the soldiers and horses together." Withdraw, it’s no big deal to come over and beat him up, but now our position is different, I am the prime minister of the new dynasty, you are the Wei Wei, we must act cautiously.”

Guo Jia immediately raised his eyebrows.

"Be...cautious? You?"

The potter's face twitched.

"Okay, I admit that I can't do it, but I still have to perform the superficial work. This time, after establishing the emperor, I was ordered by the emperor to conquer Liu Biao's rebellion and put down the puppet dynasty. Although I have won now, But the puppet dynasty is still alive, but they want to withdraw their troops for no reason. This matter must be explained to the people of the world, after all, it is the first battle after the establishment of the new dynasty. If there is no good reason, won’t it reduce the prestige of the new dynasty?”

Guo Jia looked at the potter in surprise, as if meeting this person for the first time.

"You can think of this level? It's really amazing, amazing."

The chief pottery merchant sighed, and said: "If you are in your position, you have to seek his own government. This is also a helpless move. What can you do?"

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said: "In fact, this matter is also simple. Now that you are the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, you can issue an edict on behalf of the emperor, and you can issue an edict to the world, saying that the new emperor of the puppet dynasty is the younger brother of the emperor. After finishing the control, this happened. Nian Liu Qiong is of the blood of the Tian family, and he can't bear the brotherhood of the Han family, so he has the right to withdraw his troops and announce to the world that this dispatch of troops is a warning. Zhuo ordered Liu Biao and Liu Zhang to take down the ambush immediately. After that, revoke the title of Emperor Liu Qiong and go to Nanchang City to plead guilty."

The pottery merchant understood the meaning of Guo Jia's words.

Although he knew that Liu Biao would definitely not do what he said, but acting in this way not only gave himself a step down, but also showed his kindness and gentlemanly style, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

"As for Yuan Shao." Guo Jia continued: "The hatred between us and Yuan is irreconcilable, and we don't have to be afraid of offending him. Now issue an edict announcing his crime of murdering the late emperor, even if there is no evidence. , but the mouth grows on us, and we can conjure out ten or eight of the people who need to witness, so that we will pave the way for the next plan to attack Yuan Shao."

The pottery merchant nodded in satisfaction, and said, "That's very kind, I'll do it according to your method."

……

After many matters were handed over, the potter and other people returned to Nanchang City immediately.
