Chapter 059
Huang Chengyan's arrival made Sun Jian's excitement reach the extreme. He was about to go down to greet him in person, but Zhou Yu took the lead.
"General, I'll go and welcome Mr. Huang."
Sun Jian would feel sorry for it and nodded quickly. "Gongjin, you don't have to go. Boyang, Huang Jun is not only a famous scholar in Miannan, but also a relative of my family. You can go and welcome him."
Before Sun Ben could react at first, he heard Sun Jian say this, and then he remembered that his younger brothers Sun Fu and Huang Chengyan were already brother-in-laws. He quickly volunteered to go down to welcome Huang Chengyan. When he saw Huang Chengyan, he reported his name. Huang Chengyan immediately knew his identity and felt a little aggrieved.
Cai Ke is a little older and is a widow who has married even more than anyone else, otherwise she could marry Sun Ce instead of Sun Fu. Although Huang Chengyan looked down on Sun Ben, he politely told Sun Ben a few gossips, followed Sun Ben to the city and came to Sun Jian.
"General, Miannan Huang Chengyan, on the order of the emperor, came to congratulate the general for his victory."
When Sun Jian heard this, he immediately understood. Huang Chengyan had decided to assist Sun Ce. He was overjoyed, but he didn't think too much. Pang Degong, who was beside him, was shocked and winked at Huang Chengyan. Huang Chengyan shook his head calmly. Although Pang Degong had a lot of questions, he had to hold it down temporarily. Huang Chengyan reported Cai Zhou's situation to Sun Jian and Sun Ce's question to ask for instructions, so he had the opportunity to go aside with Pang Degong.
"Chengyan, what's going on?"
In front of his old friend, Huang Chengyan did not hide his feelings and failed to lobby Xi Yang's family. Sun Ce also asked his heartfelt words to tell him what he had assisted, but he just covered up the fact that his daughter Huang Yueying had become Sun Ce's attendant. After hearing this, Pang Degong was amused and crying. He regretted it a little. If he had known this, even if he had not left the mountain, he would have asked his son Pang Shanmin to follow Sun Ce first. Now the latecomers are above, but Huang Chengyan is the first. At this time, even if he comes out of the mountain personally, it will be difficult for him to occupy the first place in Sun Ce's mind.
It seems that Pang Tong had to be brought into the curtain in advance. One person may be at a loss, and the possibility of two people being misleading at the same time is too small. Moreover, Sun Ce's methods within half a month have proved that he is not the courage of a man like Sun Jian. Not only is he capable, he has scheming, but more importantly, he has ambitions. Even if such a young man cannot compete for dominance in the world, he is enough to control one side. It is almost inevitable that the Sun family will rise in his hands.
"Chengyan, have you ever thought that Sun Bofu is very compatible with your little Achu?"
Huang Chengyan was stunned and then smiled and said, "Mr. Pang, why are you kidding? My Achu is only eleven and is not as old as a marriage."
"Although the marriage is a little smaller on the 11th, the engagement is not small at all." Pang Degong showed an inappropriate smile. "Sun Bofu's young hero has made a big splash. I don't know how many aristocratic families want to marry your daughter to you in the future. If you don't hurry up now, you can only be a concubine at that time. Are you willing to let it go? General Sun is here, this is a great opportunity."
Huang Chengyan's heart moved and immediately understood Pang Degong's intention. He chuckled: "Pang Gong, this may not work? My wife and sister married Sun Guoyi, but my daughter wanted to marry Sun Bofu. Isn't this a wrong generation?"
Mr. Pang De stroked his beard and pretended to be suddenly enlightened. "Yes, I was negligent. Unfortunately, it seems that you can only choose a good son-in-law. Chengyan, do you have a favorite candidate?"
Huang Chengyan smiled and shook his head. "My daughter is still young, so there is no need to be so anxious about this matter. It is not too late to discuss it after a few years. Mr. Pang, if you have a son and follower, you can send one or two young talents to do it for you, and you can continue to be free. I only have one daughter, so I can only make it difficult. When we meet in the future, I hope Mr. Pang will not think that I am vulgar."
Mr. Pang De glanced at Huang Chengyan and smiled meaningfully, but it was hard to hide his loss. Huang Chengyan saw it and smiled very quickly. Although he was an old friend, he was a human being after all, and he could not help but compete for the best. Mr. Pang De was a local famous scholar and older. He was a guest-resident famous scholar, younger and somewhat weaker. It was rare to have the upper hand of Mr. Pang De.
"Chengyan, the young man next to General Sun was the same age as Sun Bofu, and was a descendant of the Zhou family of Lujiang. Although he was young, he was like Sun Bofu, and he should not be taken lightly." Pang Degong put away his jokes and reminded Huang Chengyan: "Although Sun Bofu does not study, he has an extraordinary vision. Since you decide to assist him, don't stick to the habits of famous scholars, do more practical things, and lead him into the right path, which can be regarded as benefiting the people of the world."
"Thank you for your teachings, Chengyan dares not forget it for a moment." Huang Chengyan said: "I happened to have something that I want to discuss with Pang Gong."
"What's up?"
"The Kuai family's young and old are still in General Sun's general Cheng Pu, Han Dang. Have you made suggestions to General Sun? Ask him to make proper arrangements and not to cause any human life. Too many killings will hinder Tianhe. I think General Sun highly respects Pang Gong. He will definitely listen to Pang Gong's advice."
Pang Degong smiled and glanced at Huang Chengyan. "You are very active. You have just entered the curtain and started planning for the Lord."
Huang Chengyan smiled. "Although he has been idle for a long time, he has been in his position and has been working on his position."
Pang Degong knew very well. Sun Ce had already said that, but Kuai Yue didn't surrender, so he killed Kuai Yue's whole family. He rushed to Sun Jian's camp for this matter. Now the families in Xiangyang still don't understand how dangerous it is and refuse to unite. They can't watch Sun Ce kill the Kuai family. This not only makes a grudge with the Kuai family, but also is not good for Sun Ce's reputation. Since Huang Chengyan decided to assist Sun Ce, he naturally cannot watch this happen. What surprised him was that Huang Chengyan made a quick decision. He was determined to fight against Sun Ce two days ago, but now he is planning for Sun Ce, so he is also decisive and quick to make a decision.
Of course, this is also the opportunity Huang Chengyan created for him. He resolved the crisis for Sun Ce, and Sun Ce will also meet him in the future.
Pang Degong did not refuse and soon found an opportunity to make a comment to Sun Jian. Sun Jianyan followed the plan and immediately asked Huang Chengyan to lead a message to Sun Ce, ordering Cheng Pu and Han Dang to report directly to him and not to privately execute the young and old of the Kuai family. Huang Chengyan did not dare to neglect him, so he immediately returned to Caizhou and conveyed Sun Jian's order to Sun Ce.
Sun Ce felt relieved. It was good to have a strategist. He was still waiting for Zhou Yu to help him solve the situation. Now Huang Chengyan didn't have to speak up and helped him solve it directly. It was really considerate.
Taking advantage of Sun Ce's happiness, Huang Chengyan took advantage of the opportunity to recommend Pang Degong's son Pang Shanmin to Sun Ce. Sun Ce thought to himself that Huang Chengyan's suggestion was half true and half false, and probably had the intention to test him. As Pang Degong's identity, it is unlikely that he would be condescending to be an aide by his father. He was a newcomer and could not rush to build his own personal strength. It is not appropriate to keep all the talents of the Cai Pang family around him.
"Pang Shanmin is young and talented, so he is indeed a talent. However, Pang Gong is idle and wild, and he is afraid he is not used to writing. After all, his father still lacks people. I would rather recommend Pang Shanmin to his father's Yun. I just need to take Pang Degong's subordinate Pang Tong by his side as a scholar. With you instructing him, I feel relieved to come to Pang Gong."
Huang Chengyan agreed happily.
