Chapter 206 Mysterious Guest

,,,,,,,,,,,,

Cai He's face turned pale, and he felt vaguely that what he did was wrong, but he didn't realize it clearly. Cai Mao's words made him suddenly understand that his identity was low, and going to find Liu Biao instead made this matter backfire and wasted a great opportunity.

He was frightened and knelt down with a pounce, repeatedly accusing him, "I'm stupid. I've ruined a big deal, please punish me."

Cai Mao walked a few steps behind his back. It was useless to blame him. He sighed in his heart and said slowly: "This matter should not be said by the Cai family. If others say it, Liu Biao will feel guilty and ask us to comfort him. At that time, I will talk to him deeply about this matter, and if you rush to complain to him, you will not show the grievances suffered by the Cai family, and even make him disgusted. In the end, this matter is left unresolved. Sixth brother, you are not wise."

Cai He was extremely ashamed, "I am very regretful, please punish me."

"Forget it, just remember this lesson. Liu Jing used to be very scheming. Now Jiang Xia has been in trouble for two years and has become more scheming. You have to be extremely careful when dealing with him."

Cai He nodded silently, "Brother's teachings, I will remember them in my heart."

At this time, Cai Yi hurried into the room and whispered to Cai Mao. Cai Mao's eyes showed surprise, "Is it really him?"

"It's him, the child has gone out to see it."

"Strange, why did he come now?"

Cai Mao didn't think about it, so he immediately ordered the boss, "Take him to see me."

Cai Yi left in a hurry. When Cai He saw that his elder brother had something secret, he bowed and slowly retreated.

Soon, Cai Yi brought a man in black, with a medium figure and a strong body. He only wore a big hat on his head to cover his face. It was not until he entered Cai Mao's study that he took off his hat. It turned out that Huang Zu had a yellow ejaculation.

Huang She stepped forward and knelt down, "Little nephew Huang She, pay homage to Uncle Cai Shi"

Cai Mao hurriedly helped him up, "Nephew, I finally hope for you."

Cai Mao's words are not hypocritical. He and Huang Zu have had friendship for many years. Huang She asked in Xiangyang when he was a teenager and often came to the Cai family. They are very familiar with each other. This time Huang Zu died and Huang She disappeared, which made Cai Mao feel guilty. After all, his rescue failed.

At this time, Huang She finally appeared, which surprised Cai Mao. He quickly asked Huang She to sit down and ordered Cai Yi to "go and have someone to have tea."

Huang She quickly waved his hand, "No need, it's better not to let outsiders know that I'm coming to Xiangyang."

Cai Mao was stunned, "Why is this?"

Huang She sighed, "It's hard to describe it, I'll say it slowly."

Cai Mao gave Cai Yi a wink. Cai Yi understood and sat down next to him. After all, the conversation between the elders and younger generations required Cai Yi to accompany him. Huang She didn't care. He took out a letter from his arms and presented it to Cai Mao with both hands, "This is a handwritten letter from Prime Minister Cao to Uncle Shi."

"What"

Cai Mao's father's face changed drastically at the same time, and they looked at each other in a flash. Only then did they realize that Huang She did not hide in Jiangxia, but went to Xudu.

Cai Mao was nervous and expectant in his heart. He slowly took the letter, opened it tremblingly, and read it quickly, and suddenly felt ecstatic. Cao Cao said it clearly in the letter, hoping that Cai Mao would inherit the aspirations of his father and uncle Zhang Wei, be concerned about the Han Dynasty, and be loyal to heaven.

Of course, this is a euphemism. In fact, it is to ask Cai Mao to turn his loyalty to him, Cao Cao, to ensure the family's glory and wealth for thousands of years. Cai Mao read this letter and remembered every word of Cao Cao in his heart.

At the end of the letter, Cao Cao proposed to let Cai Mao and Huang She join hands to eliminate Jiangxia and Liu Jing, which surprised Cai Mao. Did Cao Cao pay attention to Liu Jing?

At this time, Cai Yi couldn't help but ask, "I don't know if Brother Huang is in Xudu official position."

Huang She smiled proudly, "I am not worth mentioning, and I was named the Shuiwu Captain by the Prime Minister."

"It's actually a lieutenant"

Cai Yi exclaimed, and a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes. Huang She was just a defeated general. Jiang Xia was completely defeated. What kind of virtue is there? He was actually appointed as a captain by Cao Cao.

Cai Mao's heart began to heat up, and he was so excited that he was restless that even a person like Huang She could be named a captain. Then he was the military advisor of Jingzhou and the number one powerful minister under Liu Biao's seat. His status was many times higher than that of Huang She. Then wouldn't he be appointed as the Nine Ministers?

Cai Mao secretly made up his mind. At this moment, his second uncle's advice had already been thrown away by him.

...........

Huang She did not live in Cai's Mansion. Today he had just arrived in Xiangyang and had a lot of things to do. After leaving Cai's Mansion, Huang She took two followers to the north of the city again. On a small street, they quickly found a house covering an area of ​​about seven or eight acres.

A follower went up and knocked on the door. The door opened a crack. The follower whispered a few words. The door opened. The follower turned around and said to Huang Qiu: "Please come in, please come in."

Huang She was surprised. Next door to this house is Li Gui's mansion guarding Xiangyang. Unexpectedly, this place was the stronghold where Cao Cao collected intelligence in Jingzhou. He couldn't help but look at Li Gui's dark mansion and thought to himself, "Can this Li Gui surrender to Cao Cao secretly?"

Huang She couldn't think too much, so he quickly walked into the gate. The gate creaked and closed again. Huang She walked to the back house. He saw a middle-aged man standing not far ahead with a smile. "Hong Kong, Mr. Huang, Jia Hong, have been waiting for Mr. Gong for a long time."

Before leaving, Huang She learned that the intelligence leader of Cao's army in Jingzhou was Jia Hong, who was a staff member of Cao Cao. It turned out that he was this person. Huang She did not dare to show his arrogance and hurried forward to greet him, "It turns out that Mr. Jia is my foot, and I have been looking forward to it for a long time."

Jia Hong smiled, "Please come in, please come in."

The two walked into the room, Jia Hong asked Huang She to sit down, and ordered someone to serve tea again. Then he smiled and said, "I received a quick report from Xu Du yesterday and learned that Mr. Huang was also working for the Prime Minister. Good things are good. With Mr. Huang's connections in Jingzhou, it will be of great help to us. I hope we can cooperate happily in the future."

Huang She felt a little uncomfortable when he heard that he spoke Huang Gong and did not mention his official position at all. However, he also knew that Jia Hong had been in Jingzhou for many years and had a deep foundation. It is said that his power had reached many key departments in Jingzhou, so he should not be underestimated. Huang She also bowed and smiled: "I would like to ask Mr. Jia for more advice."

After a few greetings, the two gradually turned to the topic. Huang She said carefully: "I chatted with the Prime Minister. I feel that the Prime Minister is very dissatisfied with Liu Jing. I want to eradicate him and then hurry up. Let's discuss how to deal with Liu Jing."

Jia Hong laughed, a hint of undetectable contempt flashed in his eyes, and he felt a little uncomfortable. The prime minister, who was ignorant of the world, actually appointed him as the lieutenant.

Jia Hongxin cursed inwardly and said lightly: "The Prime Minister is not dissatisfied with Liu Jing. On the contrary, the Prime Minister admires him quite a lot. Mr. Huang, you don't understand many things, so you should listen to my arrangements."

Wangjiang Tavern is very famous in Xiangyang. In fact, it did not open for a long time. It opened in the first year of Jian'an. In just eight years, it became one of the big taverns in Xiangfan. It has to be praised for its good operation.

But what is strange is that almost no one knows who the owner of this tavern is. All social engagements are received by the white and fat shopkeeper Wang. However, once, shopkeeper Wang was forced to anger by several distinguished guests, and then he revealed a little bit that their boss was surnamed Zhang and from Nanyang County.

This made many people suspect that the owner of Wangjiang Tavern is Zhang Ji, the guard of Changsha, or the Zhang family, but no one knows whether it is.

At night, the hour of Hai was over, and the drums at the gate of Xiangyang Chengguan were rumbling, and there were fewer and fewer customers in Wangjiang Tavern. The tavern was deserted, leaving only a few Fancheng drinkers on the second floor. The bartenders began to clean up the tables and clean the store, preparing for the closing.

At this time, a large five-stone ship slowly stopped on the dock, and several people came down from the bow of the boat. Their goal was clear and they walked directly to the Wangjiang Tavern. It was a young man with a thin face, and the few people behind him were his followers.

When they appeared at the door of the tavern, a bartender came up and smiled and said, "Sorry, the store is about to close and no longer welcomes drinkers."

At this time, Manager Wang, who was settled in the store, saw the young man at first sight. He was so shocked that his eyes were about to fall off. He shouted repeatedly: "No, no?"

He ran and came out, "The shop is not closed, please come in."

The bartenders were all very surprised. It was the shopkeeper who just now that he had ordered that he would not be entertained by the guests, so why did he regret it again? Could it be that these people are distinguished guests?

Several bartenders looked at the same time, and saw that they were all in a dusty manner, obviously from afar, wearing a white embroidered brocade robe and a flat crown for the young man. Although they were well dressed, they were not a noble person. The bartenders were knowledgeable and almost all the powerful people in Jingzhou knew each other, but they had never seen this young man.

The young man smiled slightly and bowed, "Is there a elegant seat upstairs?"

"If you have any, please follow me."

The young man and Manager Wang went upstairs. Seeing that there was no one around, Manager Wang asked in a low voice: "Why is Mr. Lu coming?"

The young man smiled slightly, "After the order of the Marquis of Wu, he will go to Jingzhou to understand the situation in Jingzhou."

The young man is named Lu Ji. He comes from the Lu family of the Eastern Wu family and is Lu Xun's brother. Speaking of which, he has some relationship with Liu Jing. His uncle and aunt Tao are Tao Sheng's sister and Tao Zhan's aunt.

Lu Ji was outstanding in his talent and had extensive friendships. He was currently appointed as the Jiangdong reporter Cao. This time he was sent to Jingzhou under the order of Sun Quan.

As for the owner of Wangjiang Tavern, it is naturally not the Zhang family in Nanyang, but the Sun family in Jiangdong. Wangjiang Tavern is an intelligence point in Jiangdong in Jingzhou.

As the enemy of Jingzhou, Jiangdong has many detailed works in Jingzhou. These works are distributed throughout Jingzhou to collect various intelligences. Finally, the information is summarized at Wangjiang Tavern. After being sorted out by Wangjiang Tavern, Wangjiang Tavern, and sent to Jiangdong regularly.

Manager Wang's real name is Wang Lin. He is from Sun Quan's shogunate. Although he is not talented, he is versatile and has a good reputation. It was because Sun Quan took this interest in him and ordered him to open a tavern in Xiangyang and be in charge of Jingzhou's detailed work.
