Chapter 136 Meet Jia Xu
Chapter 136
"Well, sir, this plan is really good, but in this way, can't I get any benefits in this war?" Guo Yan listened to Jia Xu's words and said hesitantly.
"Hahaha, the general is wrong. The general should know that the general's general is like a cloud. Niu Fu is the general who trusts the most, and there is no general who leads a state alone like the general. Like the general, Li Wei also holds 100,000 troops, but Li Wei can only walk around in small cities outside Luoyang. The general is now big The status of the general in the army is already the first person. As the saying goes: 'Muxiu in the forest, the wind will destroy'. Does the general know how many people are below, staring at the general's seat? The general was still thinking about the benefits at this time. Isn't the general's strength comparable to that of the general? The general won't think that the general will let such a thing happen. Jia Xu laughed and persuaded Guo Wei.
"Huh? So, my limelight is too strong these days, and it's time to restrain myself. Guo Yan is not a confused person. Jia Xu knows how powerful it is. "Thank you so much for your advice. Do you think Niu Fu wants to suppress me when he comes to Chang'an this time? Guo Yan thought of Niu Fu again and asked inadvertently.
"Hahaha, it's good for the general to have this kind of care in his heart. You should know that the king is like a tiger. Now that the general is in charge of the world, it is inevitable that he will have the heart of the emperor. At the beginning, the general could ascend to today's high position with the power of a state's assassin, and he will naturally guard against those who have the ability to imitate him." Jia Xu nodded and answered Guo Yan's question.
"Mr. Guo really benefited a lot from talking to him. Sir, take a rest. Guo will say goodbye. After getting Jia Xu's opinion, Guo Yan did not stay and turned around and left. He wanted to go back and think about it carefully and decide the next step as soon as possible.
However, when Guo Yan left Jia Xu's station, a pair of eyes made Guo Yu's visit clear. This person is none other than one of the two guards left by Lv Bu.
After Lv Bu returned to the camp, he was not idle. He immediately issued a new military order to Zhang Liao, so that Zhang Liao no longer had to care about the matter of Yongzhou Jianbi Qingye, but rushed directly to the front line of Tianshui. Although Lv Bu had to stay in Chang'an for a period of time for Jia Xu's affairs, the upcoming war in Tianshui also had to be considered. However, since there is Gao Shun over there and Zhang Liao now, I don't think anything will happen. The military talents of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun are only high or low compared with Lv Bu.
And the matter of Jia Xu can only be handled by Lv Bu himself. Of course, it is impossible for a talent like Jia Xu to come and go. Lv Bu can only invite him in person, but even if Lv Bu goes in person, I'm afraid he may not be able to invite Jia Xu.
"General, the two bodyguards you left in Chang'an City have come back. Is the general going to summon them now?" Lv Bu was thinking about Jia Xu when soldiers came in and reported.
"Well, are they back? Well, let them in." When Lv Bu heard the two people coming back, he quickly asked them to report.
After a while, two bodyguards in casual clothes came in, knelt down to Lv Bu, and then told what they had seen and heard.
"General Qi, my subordinates were ordered to follow Niu Fu. After he found that Niu Fu came out, he came all the way outside Chang'an City, approached General Hou Cheng to Chang'an City, and sent General Hou Cheng a good house. The two talked happily, as if there was nothing wrong with him." A soldier said.
"Okay, I know. You go down." Lv Bu had no expression. He just waved his hand and let the soldier leave.
"Report to the general, my subordinates followed Guo Wei, but found that Guo Wei went to a very remote courtyard, and then went back to the house. As for who he met and said, the villain did not know at all. It was really entrusted by the general." Another soldier reported to Lv Bu with some embarrassment.
"Oh, do you remember the location of the courtyard? Take me back tomorrow." Lv Bu ignored the soldier's self-reproach and said.
"Remember, remember, the location of the courtyard is clearly remembered by the villain." The soldier answered immediately.
"Okay, you can go down and come to me early tomorrow morning." After saying that, Lv Bu waved his hand and sent the soldier out.
"General, Hou Cheng can't follow the order. As a general, it seems inappropriate for Niu Fu to treat Hou Cheng so kindly." Seeing that there was no one in the account, Song Xian, who was beside him, came over and said to Lv Bu.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. As the commander-in-chief of the Western Expeditionary Army, Niu Fu is just seeing his generals. I believe Hou Cheng will not do what he shouldn't do. In this way, you can go to the city to meet Hou Cheng tomorrow and see what else he needs. Lv Bu didn't say anything superfluous, but just asked Song Xian to bring a word that was not painful or itchy.
Niu Fu must be the commander of the Western Expedition Army. It was not a big deal for him to see Hou Cheng. Although Lv Bu guessed that Niu Fu might have bad intentions, as long as Hou Cheng did not betray Lv Bu, Lv Bu suspected that Hou Cheng would cause bad consequences, but he looked stingy. Therefore, Lv Bu can only let Song Xian bring such a painless sentence. On the one hand, it shows that Lv Bu attaches great importance to Hou Cheng, and on the other hand, he reminds Hou Cheng and tells Hou Cheng that his every move is under Lv Bu's control. This is Lv Bu's way of the emperor, both kindness and power.
"It's the general. I'm going to see Hou Cheng early tomorrow morning." Song Xian looked at Lv Bu and felt a little unnatural. He must have had a good relationship with Hou Cheng, and he didn't know what to say at this time. However, Song Xian felt that he still wanted to have a good talk with Hou Cheng, so as not to be destroyed by others. It must be that Lv Bu brought him and Hou Cheng out of danger.
At dawn the next day, Lv Bu changed into a disguise. Under the leadership of the bodyguard yesterday, he quietly entered Chang'an City and stopped in front of the courtyard where Guo Wei came yesterday.
"General, this is it." The guard leading the way said to Lv Bu gently pointing to a deep courtyard in front of him.
"Okay, you can watch outside. I'll just go in by myself." Lv Bu ordered the bodyguard and walked towards the courtyard.
Lv Bu knocked on the door and saw a young boy coming out to open the door.
"Sir, who are you looking for?" When the boy saw Lv Bu's face, he asked helplessly.
"I'm here to find your owner. Please inform me and say that someone in Luoyang has come to him." With that, Lv Bu took out a few small money from his pocket and handed it to the boy. Originally, Lv Bu wanted to buy something to eat for the boy, but he came too early and didn't open the door, so he had to send money.
Although Lv Bu wants to enter this door, he doesn't need to deliberately please the boy. However, since he is here to visit the master, he still needs to have some posture. He must be able to open the door many times. This stepping stone often plays a very important role.
"So that's it. My husband wouldn't have seen strangers, but since you are so sincere, I'll inform you." When the boy saw that Lv Bu didn't even say his name, he didn't want to talk to Lv Bu, but since Lv Bu sent a little money, it was different. "You go in with me and wait. My husband is practicing boxing inside. Just wait here and I'll report it. With that, the boy waved to Lv Bu, took Lv Bu into the side of the yard, and then reported it alone.
Lv Bu is not an unreasonable person, but he is not a pedantic person. Naturally, he didn't stay here. When the owner here was summoned, he saw the boy walking through a corridor and went straight to the back garden, and naturally followed.
At this time, Jia Xu was strolling in the back garden. Although there was no concept of morning exercise in the Han Dynasty, Jia Xu went to bed early and got up early and insisted on exercising every day. Who made Jia Xu old? The older people are, the earlier they get up, which makes people feel like they are deeply afraid. One day they don't wake up. Therefore, as long as they can get up, they will never fall asleep. Naturally, Jia Xu is no exception.
"Sir, a gentleman came from outside. He said he was from Luoyang and asked to see him. This man is generous. I don't know if he wants to meet him." The boy was also very clever. When introducing Lv Bu, he added that the man would be generous at that time, which already showed the boy's will and hoped that Jia Xu could meet him.
"Oh, someone actually got your good impression as soon as they meet. This person is a little capable. In this case, you can come and let me meet him. I also want to see what kind of talent he is." After listening to the boy's introduction, Jia Xu naturally watched the fire and completely made the boy's mind clear, and he also had some interest in Lv Bu.
"You don't have to go out to invite me. I'm already uninvited." Just when Jia Xu said that he wanted the boy to invite Lv Bu. A figure appeared outside the garden, which was really Lv Bu who followed the boy. Lv Bu naturally heard Jia Xu's words when he appeared, so he came directly.
"Why don't you have any rules? Didn't I ask you to wait for me to report? Why did you come in like this? Seeing Lv Bu coming in like this, the boy was angry. How could he think that Lv Bu came in like this? He didn't take his words seriously at all, so he began to blame Lv Bu.
"Hahaha, the so-called rules are used to restrain those vulgar people. Naturally, the proud sons of heaven like Zai Xia and Mr. Jia Xu naturally don't care about any rules. What do you think, Mr. Jia Xu? Lv Bu didn't care about the boy's duties, but directly faced Jia Xu and said something deviant at that time.
