The Nameless of the Common Clans

Chapter 267 Another Hidden Dragon

Hedong, Anyi.

Only a few people knew about Chen Mo's expedition at the beginning. Even the troops and horses mobilized were two thousand people mobilized directly from Yong'an. In addition, some of the servants of the wealthy gentry made up a total of three thousand people. It can be said that it was kept secret. It was not until Chen Mo forced Hu Cai to surrender and killed Li Le that Zhongdu, Wu County, Jiexiu, and Qi County were defeated one after another, that the news from Hedong gradually spread.

"Nonsense!" Cai Yong slammed the table with a livid face: "The wedding is coming soon, and many guests are here. If something happens to him, how will he explain it? What if the fighter plane is delayed?"

"Cai Weng, calm down, calm down!" Zang Hong on the side quickly comforted him: "This soldier is deceitful. It is precisely because no one expected it that he had this unexpected effect."

"But if there is any mistake, my son will be widowed before he even enters the house?" Cai Yong puffed his beard and glared. He was really angry this time, and said that he had not seen Chen Mo much during this period.

"Good news has come from the front line. Taiyuan has been leveled, Hu Cai and Yang Feng have surrendered, Li Le has been killed, and all the Baibo thieves are gone. This is a good thing." Zang Hong persuaded Cai Yong while helping Cai Yong calm down: "Besides, Uncle Dao didn't do anything wrong, he just took a trip to Taiyuan before getting married, and Duke Boji thought he was just visiting a friend, so he took the opportunity to defeat the Bai Bo bandit. "

Cai Yong looked at Zang Hong: "Ziyuan, are you also involved in this matter?"

"I only found out yesterday that Bo Dao was very strict about the news this time and didn't even transfer troops, horses, food and grass from Hedong. Moreover, Duke Bo Ji thought about it, Bo Dao did this to eliminate harm for the people and to help the court. Begging for thieves, in fact, it is also I don’t want to bring shame to Duke Bojie. You are a great scholar in the world. After all, Bodao’s reputation is not enough. So now that he has captured Taiyuan, he is also showing his ability to the world. It is enough to be worthy of Zhaoji. This child has been very popular since he was a child. To be strong.”

"I also know that although Bo Dao looks gentle, he is quite proud at heart, but I have never despised his origin." Cai Yong lost some of his anger and shook his head.

"This is natural, and Bo Dao must be aware of it in his heart." Zang Hong nodded, knelt down again and said with a smile: "But in this life, sometimes it is just for fame, wealth and face. Bo Dao does not want Bo Ji Gong Face is dull, recklessness is recklessness There were some collisions, but he was still full of filial piety. Let the world know that Duke Bozhe chose Bodao as his son-in-law because he really knows people with a keen eye. If this had not happened, you would say that if outsiders mentioned it, Bodao would be able to achieve what he is today. What will you do if your fate changes?"

The look on Cai Yong's face had already improved a lot. Hearing this, he couldn't help but snorted coldly: "Bo Dao is a genius, how can he compare with those ordinary people? They are only qualified to talk about people behind their backs."

My son-in-law, I can say that he is not, but others cannot!

"Of course Bo Jiu Gong is thinking about Bo Dao, but why is Bo Dao not thinking about Bo Jiu Gong?" Zang Hong was relieved and a little tired. According to the news, Chen Mo will be back tomorrow, and then he will It's time to talk about this disciple. Although he won the battle and moved to the county in half a month, it sounded very glorious, but Cai Yong and Zang Hong were more concerned about Chen Mo's safety.

"When Bo Dao comes back, ask him to come see me immediately!" Cai Yong looked at Zang Hongdao. Although his anger subsided, he still had to say that it is understandable that he is young and energetic, but after all, Chen Mo is not an ordinary young man. He is still from Hedong. How could the Lord, the pillar of the imperial court, be in danger so easily?

"Definitely." Zang Hong nodded, then pointed to the silk on the table and said: "Weng Cai, let's talk about the wedding arrangements first. Now the decorations in the city have been completed, and the Chen Mansion is large enough, but the seating of the guests still needs to be discussed. Although Cao Mengde is a good friend of Bo Dao, it is only his son who is here. I think we should sit in the back row this time, otherwise it would not be good to let him sit at the same table as Xu Ziyuan, who is also an old friend of Cao Cao and an envoy of Yuan Benchu. "

"Bo Dao has many friends." Looking at the arrangement of seats on the silk cloth, Cai Yong couldn't help but shake his head and said with a smile. Chen Mo had just entered Luoyang, and Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Yang Xiu all sent congratulatory gifts, as well as Cao Cao, Xun Among the disciples of Pei and Lu Zhi, Cai Yong also saw many celebrities from Luoyang in the past, both high and low, as well as some scholars from Qingzhou, not to mention those from Hedong. His son-in-law was really not picky at all in making friends. .

"Bo Dao grew up in the market since he was a child. He is different from ordinary scholars, but I don't think it is necessarily a bad thing." Zang Hong said with a smile: "He is not humble when dealing with superiors, and he is humble towards subordinates. He does have the appearance of a master."

Cai Yong nodded. This was true. No matter who he came up with, at least he wouldn't hate him.

"It's a pity that Ciming passed away and Ziqian is now living in seclusion in Youzhou. Otherwise, if they could come, it would be a prosperous time." Looking at the name of Lu Zhi's disciple, Cai Yong sighed and said, "But when did Liu Bei How could I not know about the disciples you have accepted?”

"Liu Bei has become somewhat famous in recent years. During the Yellow Turban rebellion, he made a lot of contributions to Youzhou. I heard that he and Gongsun Bogui were disciples of Lu Gong at the same time. Now he is the Prime Minister of Pingyuan." Zang Hong said with a smile: "But he I don’t know why he came. He must have been asked by Mr. Lu.” Cai Yong nodded and didn’t care.

The two continued to study the banquet seats. This thing is simple but not simple at all. Seat ranking is also a symbol of status. If the arrangement is wrong, it will offend others, so the two of them are very cautious here.

On April 13, Chen Mo led his troops back and ordered people to arrange accommodation for Yang Feng and others. These people could not leave for the time being. Chen Mo had more than 20,000 soldiers and horses surrendered this time, doubling the military strength. These people still had some influence in the army, but Chen Mo was not going to use them again, at least not for the time being, so these people had to stay in Anyi and consider hiring them after the army was completely incorporated and returned to their hearts.

However, Xu Huang was immediately arranged by Chen Mo to replace Shi Geng as the county lieutenant of Anyi. During his wedding, he was responsible for the security and defense of Anyi. Although the position was not high, it was different from the general appointed by Yang Feng before. Here, Xu Huang, the county lieutenant, had a formal establishment of the court, and it was also a manifestation of trust and closeness. After all, Anyi was now Chen Mo's base camp, and being able to serve as a county lieutenant here was considered a confidant.

From the next day, envoys from various parties came to visit, including Xu You, a counselor under Yuan Shao, Yan Xiang, a counselor under Yuan Shu, Yan Gang, a counselor under Gongsun Zan, and princes of all sizes who had met and had not met. Many of his friends when he was in power also came. Tang Yuan is now well-known in Qingzhou.

These people came here to congratulate him, but more of them were to discuss cooperation. In today's world, Yuan Shao annexed Han Fu and occupied Jizhou this year, and Yuan Shu also took over Runan, Jiujiang, Yingchuan and other places, all of which are rich places. Both sides have a sense of dominating the north and the south.

From the exchanges in the past few days, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shu formed an alliance, while Yuan Shao formed an alliance with Cao Cao, Tao Qian, and Liu Biao. The forces of the two sides are intertwined. Yan Xiang came this time to persuade Chen Mo and was willing to present Chen Mo to the court as the governor of Bingzhou, so that Chen Mo and Gongsun Zan could join forces in Bingzhou to contain Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao hoped that Chen Mo could serve as the governor of Henan and restore the livelihood of the people in Luoyang while restraining Yuan Shu.

At present, Chen Mo has not agreed to either side, but needs to consider it and give a reply after the wedding. Neither he nor Cao Cao has the power to compete with the two Yuans, so Chen Mo wants to form an alliance with Cao Cao, but Cao Cao is sandwiched between the two Yuans, and it is difficult to have both sides. Moreover, Cao Ang did not reveal his intention in this regard when he came this time, which made Chen Mo a little unsure of his brother's thoughts. He could only postpone this matter for the time being and find a time to talk to Cao Ang. After all, although the two Yuans are now powerful, Chen Mo actually does not think much of Yuan Shu. As for Yuan Shao, after experiencing the Luoyang incident, Chen Mo felt that it was not easy for Yuan Shao to achieve great things, but the strength of the two Yuans was there, and neither he nor Cao Cao could afford to offend them now, so Chen Mo's idea was to form a secret alliance between the two on top of the existing alliance!

"My lord, Liu Bei, the Prime Minister of Pingyuan, wants to see you." Dian Wei's voice came from outside the door.

"Please come in quickly." Chen Mo smiled.

Liu Bei was a surprise among the guests during this period. He was also a very good talker. Most importantly, Chen Mo had read Liu Bei's fate. His Hidden Dragon Fate was 5, but his luck was as high as 96.

This was obviously not normal, and it also made Chen Mo very interested in Liu Bei. Although his official rank was the same as his, he was different from Chen Mo, who held military and political power. First, Pingyuan County was relatively poor. Second, Liu Bei was attached to Gongsun Zan and did not have much military power. Whether in terms of official rank or ability, he was not outstanding. But such a person had the Hidden Dragon Fate, which made Chen Mo curious.

You know, so far, Chen Mo has not seen many people with fate. He, Cao Cao, the deceased Sun Jian, Sun Ce, and Yuan Shao all had the Hidden Dragon Fate, Lu Bu had the Tan Lang Fate, and Dong Zhuo's fate later became the Teng Snake Fate.

"Meet the envoy!" Soon, a seven-foot-tall middle-aged man came in. He had a decent appearance, gentle conversation, and a righteous look between his eyebrows, which made people feel that he was a good person.

"You can just call me by my courtesy name." Chen Mo smiled and extended his hand, inviting Liu Bei to sit down, saying, "I have been busy with the wedding these days, so please don't blame me for my negligence."

"How dare I?" Liu Bei smiled and knelt in front of Chen Mo and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, I have to thank you, sir."

"Oh? Thank me? Why?" Chen Mo asked curiously.

"Since my teacher returned to Youzhou, I have visited him several times, but he has always been depressed. This time, I heard that the envoy and the daughter of Bo Ji are going to get married. This is the first time I have seen my teacher happy in these days." Liu Bei sighed, "My teacher cares about the country of the Han Dynasty. Now that the country is falling, my teacher is also..."

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Mr. Lu for a long time. After the wedding, I must find time to visit him." Chen Mo nodded. This topic was a bit dull. The two quickly changed the topic and talked about other things. Time passed quietly as they kept meeting and discussing with people...
