The knives and axes who were ambushing around stood up one after another.
Seeing this, Guan Yu got up quickly, grabbed the big knife with one hand, and pulled Lu Su with the other.
"Zijing, if you dare not make a decision, you can report back to your master Sun Shao!"
"Okay!" Lu Su nodded.
Guan Yu said again: "I'll go ahead, Zijing please send me aboard!"
"Okay!" Lu Su still nodded, and accompanied Guan Yu out of the gazebo.
The two came side by side, and none of Jiangdong's swordsmen dared to move rashly.
After Guan Yu boarded the boat, Zhou Cang immediately ordered the boat to go away.
Jiangdong chased to the shore with swords and axes, watching the boat and sighing.
Lu Meng was filled with righteous indignation: "Great Governor, Guan Yu is shameless, Jiang Dong should kill this man!"
Lu Su waved his hand: "Zi Ming don't want to hate Guan Yu. At the beginning, Gong Jin bullied Guan Yu without food and forced him to cede the three counties. Now it is reasonable to ask for it or not!"
Lu Meng shook his head: "How can we explain to the Lord?"
Lu Su waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about this, I will personally repair a book and send it to Jianye City!"
"Yes!" Lu Meng cupped his fists and said no more.
A few days later, Lu Su's letter was sent to Jianye City.
Zhang Zhao personally sent it to Sun Shao.
Sun Shao opened the letter to check it, and was suddenly annoyed: "Guan Yu is too deceitful!"
Zhang Zhao checked the letter and his expression changed.
Sun Shao shook his head and complained to Zhang Zhao: "Cao Cao wants me to pay tribute every year, and even Guan Yu asks me for money, food, soldiers and horses. Is Jiangdong so humiliated?"
The negotiations between the Cao and Sun families were finalized half a month ago.
Jiangdong paid tribute to the imperial court every year, which made Liu Xian and Cao Pi retreat.
To Sun Shao, this was already a great humiliation.
Now that Guan Yu didn't return the three counties, he actually asked him for soldiers and food. It was clearly a boulder falling into a well.
"My lord, calm down!" Zhang Zhao comforted Sun Shao and said, "Jiangdong is poor now, but there is no shortage of food, grass and military equipment. If Guan Yu wants to give it to him!"
Sun Shao shook his head: "I'll give it to him if he wants it. How can I save face?"
Zhang Zhaodao: "My lord, you can first accept Guan Yu, and then send someone to Xudu to tell Cao Cao truthfully. In the coming year, Cao Cao will attack Nanzhong Guan Yu, and then I will enjoy the rewards in Jiangdong!"
"That's a way!" Sun Shao's anger was reduced by half.
Zhang Zhao said again: "A man can bend and stretch, why should my lord care about the momentary success or failure?"
"Well said!" Sun Shao nodded: "I just follow Zibu's opinion, but Lu Su is not here, who can go to Xudu?"
Zhang Zhaodao: "You should send Hua Xin there. This person has a lot of respect for Cao Cao. Maybe he can stay in Xudu and be my answer in Jiangdong!"
"Okay, then let Hua Xin go!" Sun Shao nodded heavily.
"Obey!" Zhang Zhao signaled with clasped fists, and went to look for Hua Xin immediately after leaving the mansion.
Hua Xin was born in Xiaolian, and he worshiped Taiwei Chen Qiu as his teacher in his early years.
He came from the same school as Lu Zhi, Zheng Xuan, Guan Ning and others.
The three of them called a dragon together, with Hua Xin as the head of the dragon, Bing Yuan as the belly of the dragon, and Guan Ning as the tail of the dragon.
During Dong Zhuo's rebellion, he went to Jiangdong to join the little overlord Sun Ce and became a guest of honor.
After Sun Ce's death, Sun Quan took over Jiangdong.
Hua Xin was not reused, and now that Sun Shao succeeded, Hua Xin was basically forgotten.
When Zhang Zhao came to the door, Hua Xin was very surprised.
After learning about the new lord Sun Shao, he wanted him to be sent to the imperial court.
Immediately excited.
Zhang Zhaodao: "You are Ziyu, and Liu Xian is also Ziyu. When you arrive at Xudu, you will be your confidant. Don't disappoint the lord's expectations!"
"Definitely, definitely!" Hua Xin cupped his hands.
He packed his bags overnight and set off from Jianye City the next day.
A few days later, he entered Xudu, first stayed at the posthouse, and then sent someone to assassinate him to the prime minister's mansion.
Since Cao Cao was a class teacher, he held a banquet at the mansion every day, which was very lively.
He had no time to meet Hua Xin, so he asked Liu Xian and Cao Pi to handle the matter.
Liu Xian has always disliked official accents.
He directly held a banquet in the brothel, and asked Cao Pi to invite Hua Xin to the banquet.
As soon as he entered the brothel, Hua Xin saw countless Yingying and Yanyan, and immediately froze: "Master Jijiu, what is this?"
"Hahaha!" Liu Xian laughed loudly: "This brothel, today opened its doors for Ziyu!"
Hua Xin laughed too. He was named Ziyu, and Liu Xian was also named Ziyu.
Both of them are Ziyu, opening the door for Ziyu is opening the door for him and Liu Xian, a pun intended.
"The envoy is welcome, please take a seat!" Cao Pi hurriedly invited Hua Xin to take a seat.
"Thank you, my lord!" Hua Xin clasped his hands and sat down.
Liu Xian filled a glass of wine for Hua Xin himself.
"You are welcome, Ziyu, we will be family from now on!"
"A family?" Hua Xin was stunned.
"Hahaha!" Cao Pi and Liu Xian laughed loudly.
Then Cao Pi explained: "Master said, Mr. Ziyu is my nobleman!"
"Thanks to the love of the young master, Hua Xin is overwhelmed by the flattery!"
In the original history, it was Hua Xin who led the officials to force Han Xiandi to abdicate to Cao Pi.
As a time traveler, Liu Xian even did this.
Therefore, it is true that Hua Xin is Cao Pi's nobleman.
Chapter 287
After a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere rose.
The blushing Hua Xin poured bitter water on Cao Pi and Liu Xian.
To sum it up in one sentence, if you are not happy in Jiangdong, you will not be happy doing anything.
Cao Pi inserted the needle with his sword, and immediately asked Hua Xin: "In my opinion, how does my father compare to Sun Jian? How do I compare to Sun Quan?"
Hua Xin laughed: "Although Sun Jian is brave, he has no plans. Sun Quan has plans but no courage. The prime minister and his son are both civil and military!"
"Hahaha!" Cao Pi also laughed and turned to look at Liu Xian.
Liu Xian nodded slightly to say yes.
Cao Pi immediately grabbed Hua Xin's arm, and said earnestly, "Sir, you have a great talent. If you don't give up, you can stay in the court. I'll find an official position for you!"
Hua Xin was shocked, put down his wine glass and looked into Cao Pi's eyes: "Young master, are you serious?"
Cao Pi said: "Shang Shulang, would you like to take office?"
The highest official of Shangshutai is Shangshu Ling, who is currently in charge of Xun Yu, who is in charge of the daily operation of the court.
Shangshu Ling's deputy is Shangshu Pushe, and there are Shangshu and Shangshulang below him.
Shang Shulang's official position is not big or small, but it has a special meaning to Hua Xin.
When He Jin was in charge of the government, he appointed Hua Xin as Shang Shulang.
Later, when Dong Zhuo brought chaos to the capital, Hua Xin went to Jiangdong and served as the prefect of Yuzhang.
Now returning to Xudu and serving as Shang Shulang is like returning to his original post.
"Thank you son for your kindness, Hua Xin will never forget it!"
After finishing speaking, Hua Xin drank three glasses of wine in a row, with great momentum.
"Hahaha!" Both Liu Xian and Cao Pi laughed.
"Ouch!" Hua Xin slapped his head and said suddenly, "I forgot something important!"
"But it's okay to say!" Liu Xian stretched out his hand to signal.
Hua Xin said, "I'm an envoy from Jiangdong, and I'm here to see the Prime Minister and report something important!"
"What's the matter?" Cao Pi then asked.
Hua Xin said: "When Guan Yu attacked Nanzhong, he owed money to the three counties in Jiangdong. If Lu Su couldn't ask for it, Guan Yu gave him a hand!"
Liu Xian shook his head: "Zijing has always been kind-hearted, so he will inevitably be manipulated by Guan Yu!"
Hua Xin said again: "Now Guan Yu not only does not return the land of the three counties, but also invites Jiangdong to attack Jingnan together in the coming year. My lord pretends to cater to Guan Yu, and specially ordered me to come here to report to the prime minister!"
"En!" Liu Xian nodded: "I will truthfully report this matter to the Prime Minister!"
Hua Xin cupped her hands: "Thank you, Master Jijiu!"
"Drink!" Liu Xian raised his glass.
"Thank you, thank you!" Hua Xin raised his glasses with both hands, pushing and changing glasses with the two of them.
That night, Hua Xin stayed in the brothel.
Cao Pi then returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion to report to Cao Cao.
After Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't stop laughing.
It is not surprising that Guan Yu attacked Jingnan.
Interestingly, Jiangdong envoy Hua Xin was retained again.
You know, before Lu Su came to envoy, Liu Xian made a plan to keep him behind.
Now that the old trick is repeated, it can be said to be tried and tested!
"Ziyu dug a good corner for me!" Cao Cao sighed.
Liu Xian smiled: "Prime Minister misunderstood Hua Xin, who was originally the Minister of the imperial court. He has been treated coldly in Jiangdong these years, and it is time for him to be reinstated as an official!"
"Well said!" Cao Cao said, "Remove the character Lang and add Hua Xin as Minister!"
"Prime Minister is wise!" Liu Xian hurriedly cupped his hands.
Cao Cao got up, took Liu Xian to a seat, and poured him a cup of hot tea.
"Thank you, Prime Minister!" Liu Xian picked up the teacup with both hands.
Cao Cao grabbed Liu Xian's hand and said earnestly, "Ziyu, recently the ministers intend to invite the court to make me Duke Wei. What do you think of this matter?"
Liu Xian said: "The prime minister deserves this honor for devoting all his heart and soul to the imperial court. If you have repeatedly made contributions to the imperial court but are not promoted, this will chill the hearts of all the people in the world!"
"Haha!" Cao Cao laughed, "But I saw that Fu Wan and Xun Yu were not happy at the banquet!"
Liu Xian said again: "Fu Wan is the head of the state, a relative, no different from Dong Cheng, so naturally he must be afraid of the prime minister!"
Cao Cao asked, "Then why is Wen Ruo like this?"
Liu Xian shook his head: "Xun Lingjun is afraid that you will become the Duke of Wei and become the King of Wei, and become the Emperor of Wei when you become the King of Wei!"
Cao Cao smiled: "After Ziyu is also in the Han Dynasty, is he also afraid that I, Cao Cao, will become the Emperor of Wei?"
Liu Xian asked Cao Cao: "If the prime minister really has this heart, why wait today? If the prime minister doesn't have this heart, why bother to ask me?"
"Well said!" Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction.
Liu Xian said again: "I also ask the prime minister to accept the Duke of Wei's title as soon as possible, so that the hearts of the soldiers and civilians in the world will be at ease!"
"Yeah!" Cao Cao nodded slightly.
