Chapter 45-Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Chen Peng! (New Book 3/7)
In the hall, Yuan Kui sat upright while Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao stood in front of him.
"Uncle, nephew heard that uncle recommended Chen Xin of the Chen clan as the Youzhou Provincial Governor in the Imperial Court today. Why is that? Do we still need to curry favor with Miss Chen?”Yuan Shu asked.
Yuan Kui took a sip of tea and shook his head gently.
"Of course, the Yuan Family doesn't need to please anyone. But now that the world is in chaos, it's never wrong to make some preparations and make some good friends. Besides, it's just the Provincial Governor of Youzhou. The Yuan Family doesn't care about him.”
"Some things on the road don't just look at the surface, but also the benefits behind it. This is the way to survive.”
Yuan Shu nodded after hearing it.
Soon after, Yuan Kui looked at Yuan Shao at the other side.
"What has that Tu family done recently?”
For example, when talking to Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, Yuan Kui seemed to have changed into a different person.
Yuan Shao, who had his head lowered, raised his head slightly and replied respectfully,""Uncle, that butcher did not do anything.”
Yuan Kui frowned." I didn't allow you to find an opportunity to tell that butcher's son to get rid of the eunuchs around His Majesty. Did you say anything?"”
"This…"
Yuan Shao looked troubled.
Although the Spirit Emperor had lifted the ban on the party in order to suppress the rebellion, allowing the party members to re-enter the court.
However, the eunuchs 'power was still strong.
It was obviously not the right time to speak to He Jin.
Yuan Shao himself was very clear about this point. He did not believe that his uncle, the old and shrewd Yuan Kui, did not know.
The reason why his uncle did this was because of his identity.
Yuan Shu was afraid of the Yellow Turban Army, so he resigned from the position of Changshui Commandant that his family had worked so hard to help him get. He was not reprimanded because Yuan Shu was the son of the Yuan family.
And he, Yuan Shao, was merely the son of a concubine.
Hearing Yuan Shao being reprimanded, a smile appeared on Yuan Shu's face.
"Uncle, please don't be angry. I didn't mean to forget uncle's words, just let him do it.”
Yuan Shu deliberately said that Yuan Shao had forgotten about this matter, while the other side was trying to curry favor with Yuan Kui, which made Yuan Shao even angrier.
It was just that he did not show it in his heart.
"Uncle, please calm down. It's my fault." Yuan Shao lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
Yuan Kui waved his hand impatiently." Alright, go. Remember not to say anything when you're beside that butcher's son. Say what you should say and don't say what you shouldn't!”
Yuan Shao nodded before withdrawing from Yuan Kui's estate.
When he was in front of the door, Yuan Shao stopped and looked inside.
There was a suppressed anger in his eyes.
"One day, one day, I will get everything.”
After swearing in his heart, Yuan Shao walked out of Yuan Kui's mansion's main door and then headed straight for Great General He Jin's mansion.
When they arrived at the entrance of General He Jin's residence, they happened to meet a short and dark-skinned guy.
If it was any other time, Yuan Shao would have greeted him with a smile.
However, Yuan Shao, who had just been reprimanded, lowered his head in a bad mood.
The short and dark-skinned guy saw Yuan Shao first.
"Benchu, Benchu!"
The short black guy waved his hand and greeted Yuan Shao.
"Oh, it's Meng De." Yuan Shao looked up.”
Cao Cao turned his head and looked at Yuan Shao, noticing that there was something wrong with Yuan Shao."What happened to Benchu? He didn't look happy.”
Yuan Shao shook his head.”
"Meng De, why are you here?" Yuan Shao asked Cao Cao.
Cao Cao led the horse and handed the reins to a soldier in front of He Jin's residence. He then lowered his voice and said,""The Great General summoned me. Didn't he say that Chen Xin's son, Chen Peng, became the Changshui Military Minister after he became the Youzhou Provincial Governor?”
"Chen Peng? Was it that Chen Yunqing who suggested a night attack on the Yellow Turban to kill Cheng Zhiyuan?”Yuan Shao raised his eyebrows.
Cao Cao nodded.”
"Today, your uncle bought a big favor for the Chen family. The great general is anxious.”Cao Cao whispered,"The Chen clan of Yingchuan is quite famous, so the general wants to see if there is any way to rope them in."”
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Yuan Shao nodded his head in understanding.
He Jin's background was too poor, which led to the fact that although he was now the Great General leading the world's military forces, neither the aristocratic families nor the eunuch Zhuo Liu took a fancy to him.
He Jin desperately wanted to gain the recognition of the aristocrats.
The best way to do this was to rope in the gentry.
The Chen clan of Yingchuan was the face of the Yingchuan aristocratic families. If they had the support of the Chen clan, they would have to worry about no one helping them.
"So Great General wants to rope in the Chen clan?”Yuan Shao asked.
Cao Cao nodded and said," That Chen Xin is already the Youzhou Provincial Governor and has nowhere to go. However, his son, Chen Peng, has become the Changshui Military Commander. This is under the General's jurisdiction. Therefore, the General wants to see if he can help Chen Peng become the Changshui Commandant."”
"This way, it can be considered as icing on the cake. That's why I was invited to discuss it!”
Now that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were both serving under Great General He Jin, this was normal.
After some understanding, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao walked into the residence of Great General He Jin.
On the other hand, Chen Peng, who was far away in Youzhou Province, did not know that he had already become a popular piece of cake!
