In the hall, everyone fell silent immediately after listening to Cheng Yu's words.
Even the brave and fearless Dian Wei and Xu Chu understood half of it, with confused looks on their faces.
Guo Fengxiao frowned even more and looked at Fang Guang worriedly.
Such a top-level political contest has nothing to do with bravery or wisdom, but only matters about stance. If you make one wrong move, it may be difficult to make great progress in your official career.
No matter how much Cao Cao loved Chong Fang Guang, he would not act rashly under the umbrella of a noble family.
Cao Mengde's line is about to rise, and the family's gates have already begun to be laid out, and they are beginning to act like either my kind or the enemy.
Cheng Yu's meaning is very simple. After all, Fang Guang was born as a Yellow Turban Colonel and a native of Baiding countryside.
At this time, we must avoid openly making enemies of Kyushu and thousands of aristocratic families!
When it comes to building Xuchang, it is the best choice to tolerate the Yingchuan and Chen family for once.
If they were ordinary people, even Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Zhou Yu would probably be able to be patient under such a big situation. As for Da Er, he had long thought about how to share the cake with the big families.
After all, based on history, after the founding of the Shu Han Dynasty, Zhuge Kongming handled the dispute between the Conglong faction, the Yizhou faction, the Dongzhou faction, and the Jingzhou faction very smartly, but not forcefully.
This also planted the seeds that when the Shu Han Dynasty was destroyed, the Yizhou lineage would sit back and watch Liu Chan disappear into ashes!
As for Pang Tong, he died too early and did not catch up with this level of political game.
And Zhou Yu himself was the spokesman for the Lujiang family and the warlords jointly owned by Sun Ce.
Fang Guang was different from them all. He was from the Yellow Turban Army, which destined him to have much less room for maneuver.
Either just obey the turbulent flow at the gate of the aristocratic family, or fight to the death against the behemoth that has shrouded Kyushu for hundreds of years.
For a moment, everyone in the hall looked at Fang Guang.
However, Fang Guang raised the corners of his mouth, showing his signature disdainful smile, and his eyes gradually turned cold.
"I know that to build the Xuchang East City and the West City for the benefit of my lord and the people of the world is the foundation for my lord to be powerful in the world from now on!"
"Is there any reason to give in just because the Chen family has a monopoly on merchants in a state?"
"Whether it's Yingchuan, fields, or markets, as long as the Lord orders me to coordinate this matter, I will naturally respect my heart!"
Fang Guang's words were almost uncompromising to the Yingchuan family.
Everyone in the hall, including the generals of Qiao County, who doesn't like brave and unyielding people, looked at Fang Guang, and everyone's eyes were filled with admiration and even reverence.
Cheng Yu was having a good time today. Even after saying so much, he failed to persuade Fang Guang. He could only lower his head, sigh softly, and say nothing more.
Guo Jia's eyes lit up. Although he came from a noble family, he didn't like the big umbrella above Kyushu.
Fang Guang did not disappoint Guo Fengxiao. Guo Jia personally poured the wine in front of Fang Guang. The two of them looked at each other and drank together, both seeing each other's intentions.
In the back tent, Xiao Qiao, who was full of curiosity, heard that there were delicious food in Fang Guang's residence. He originally wanted to take a look first, but he happened to see the scene in front of him.
Although the girl is naive, she is not a fool. As a member of the Kodong family, she naturally understands how the Kyushu family exists.
Looking at Fang Guang's star-like eyes, Xiao Qiao's heart trembled violently as if being hit by something heavy. The girl's cheeks instantly turned red.
Xiao Qiao covered her face as if she had glimpsed some big secret, and ran back to the backyard.
Eat chili and read Fang Guang’s battle message.
At this time, Xuchang City, Xun Yu's mansion.
Beside a pond in the backyard of Xunzhai, next to a white crane standing on one foot, two men in long robes and high crowns were having a heart-to-heart talk.
One of them had gentle eyes, but when he occasionally turned his eyes, he revealed a serious aura. He seemed to be Xun Wenruo, the leader of a famous and famous family.
There was a person next to him with a pale face, pale eyebrows and narrow eyes. He walked side by side with Xun Yu. He didn't look embarrassed at all, but he was a rare smart man in the world who had recently joined Cao Cao. Yang Xiu, Yang Dezu, a descendant of the Hongnong Yang family, and the son of Yang Biao
.
Yang Biao was the son of Taiwei Yang Shi and the head of the Hongnong family.
Cao Cao became more and more powerful, and some high-ranking families who had been waiting to make bets also took a fancy to Ah Ma. Yang Xiu's investment in Xuchang was naturally a sign that the Yang family of Hongnong was willing to invest in Cao Cao.
Yang Xiu was a smart man and had more deceitful ways than Xun Yu.
It was natural for the high-ranking officials to stand together with the high-ranking officials. They used Chen Chen to test out Fang Guang's qualities, putting Fang Guang in a dilemma and putting himself out in front of the world. This was Yang Xiu's plan.
Tomorrow was when Cao Cao summoned his civil and military officials to discuss matters. Xun Yu felt uneasy, so he called Yang Xiu again.
"Dezu, Fang Guang should not be underestimated. If he tolerates Chen Chen this time, Dongjun's hair will grow so well. As long as there are some chemical fertilizers, farm tools, and paper, they are all rare things that have been around for hundreds of years, and he may not be able to grow hair."
Win over the scholars!"
"In this way, this boy has become the co-head of the family. Do you think those who are only interested in profit will take it to heart when the Yellow Turban is born?"
"Didn't all the butchers and thieves under the command of Emperor Gaozu of the previous dynasty become the masters of powerful clans? The clans and clans are just the same thing for one moment and the other!"
Although Xun Yu was a top scholar and had a sharp vision of things, he still hit the nail on the head.
Yang Xiu looked at Ling Jun's hand touching the back of the crane, a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes, and a trace of smile couldn't help but flash in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, do you think that Fang Datong is a man who is patient and seeks power? I have already carefully considered how this child will grow when I was in Hongnong!"
"But the Yellow Turbans do things casually, so how do they know the political strategy? They only rely on the magic skills of the pre-Qin Dynasty to stand under the command of the lord!"
"I conclude that this boy will not hold back. He can accept Jiang, thieves, and mountain bandits as his subordinates, but he has never thought of establishing an official position based on his reputation. This boy is in Dongjun, and everything is inseparable from money and food!"
"He is so eager for quick success and reeks of copper that he can't let go of this treasure land of Xuchang!"
"Don't worry, Wen Ruo. My plan is to identify the little thief Fang Guang's lifeline and leave. When your majesty gets it for the Lord, under the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, Fang Datong will no longer be able to stretch his hands and feet!"
"Okay, very good! Brother Yang, you really have given birth to a good son. You are so smart, so it is not in vain for me to recommend you to the lord as the scribe!"
"Huh, Zhongde and I have been friends for so many years, but he was dragged to Fang Datong's mansion by Fengxiao!"
"How important is what my lord thinks and sees every day? Zhongde has too many things to do. I will take care of them. From now on, only Dezu will be in charge of the lord's account!"
Yang Xiu worked so hard, Xun Yu naturally wanted to give him something to eat.
The chief secretary next to Cao Cao is the life secretary next to the leader, which can be said to be the golden starting point for career advancement.
When Yang Xiu heard Xun Yu's promise, a greedy look flashed in his eyes, and he quickly lowered his head and thanked him repeatedly.
Xun Yu tilted his head, glanced at Yang Xiu, and then spoke slowly.
"My lord is the most suspicious. It is taboo for people around you to interact with a counselor like me."
"From today on, unless it's an important matter, you don't want to see me. Do you understand? When talking about me in front of the Lord, you must always have a sense of contempt. Only in this way can you, the chief clerk, be able to do a long-term job!"
