Zhang Miao personally rushed to Xiangben and met Sun Ce. Faced with Sun Ce's accusations, he was very frank and was very frank. Attacking Suiyang was an orderly act and had to go. It was not my intention. Yuan Tan was the governor of Yanzhou, and He Yong was a friend of that year. I could not refuse it because of my feelings. Yuan Tan and He Yong were all in your camp, so you can ask them. If there is any falsehood, I would rather accept any disposal. If you want Chen Liu, I will give Chen Liu to you. If you want my life, I will be here and deal with it.

As soon as Zhang Miao said, Zhang Chao's expression changed.

Sun Ce smiled. He looked at Zhang Miao for a moment, stood up slowly, walked to Zhang Miao, and circled around him for a while. "Who gave you the idea?"

Zhang Miao was very calm. "Zheng Georgia."

Sun Ce had long guessed that it might be Xinpi. He just asked by the way to see if Zhang Miao had other counselors. Zhang Miao had average abilities, but he had a good character. Eight chefs have a reputation, not many enemies, and many friends. Han Fu was excluded from Jizhou by Yuan Shao and came to join him as soon as possible. Cao Cao was fighting outside and entrusted his family to him. It can be seen that he still has the loyalty of helping the world.

It is really unnecessary to seize such a person's territory, especially when he has already admitted defeat. Zhang Miao is more beneficial to him as the prefect of Chenliu. He can act as a strategic buffer zone to protect Yingchuan and Chen State, and to the west, and to protect Luoyang. If he really wants to seize it, he will be in danger of facing Yuan Shao and forcing Yuan Shao to fight to the decisive battle.

"Where are others?"

"I'm going back to Yingchuan to recuperate, and maybe I'll go to Nanyang to seek medical treatment."

"He is so open-minded that he treats Nanyang Bencaotang as his sanatorium." Sun Ce muttered, waved his hand, and asked someone to invite Yuan Tan and He Yong to come. Zhang Miao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, knowing that he had passed this level, and even admired Xin Pi. He is worthy of being an opponent who has been fighting with Sun Ce for so long. He knows Sun Ce very well.

Sun Ce gently exposed the war between the two sides, and the topic changed. "I want to go and see Xiang Ben's Ligusan and Dyengyan planting, and I also want to see your dye workshop. Is it convenient?"

"It's convenient, you can do it anytime." Zhang Miao smiled and said, "If you can arrange a few people to help us improve the process, I will be grateful. Jingzhou and Yuzhou customers have high requirements. I heard from farmers that they think Chenliu's dye is not pure enough and they are unwilling to pay high prices."

"This is a good suggestion. I will discuss with them to see if there are any talents in this field."

"It is difficult to find ready-made talents, but as long as you find someone who is willing to do this, everything else will be easy to deal with. Chenliu has a ready-made workshop, but he lacks scholars who know how to read the text and write. He doesn't know how to try it. In fact, the most suitable person is Taoist priests. Those Taoist priests who know how to refine alchemy are not only knowledgeable, but also knowledgeable, and are familiar with material nature than ordinary scholars. It is most convenient to improve dyes."

Sun Ce looked at Zhang Miao in surprise and nodded repeatedly. He thought Zhang Miao's suggestion was very reliable, so he immediately asked someone to come to find Yu Jian. Yu Jian once practiced Taoism in Yangcheng Mountain, and had refined elixirs, and was also familiar with Taoist priests who refined elixirs. His wound medicine was the masterpiece of Taoists, and now it is an indispensable medicine in the army. It is perfect for him to preside over this matter. Yangcheng Mountain is in Yingchuan, and it took only half a month to go back and forth.

After listening to Zhang Miao's suggestions, Zhang Miao was not interested at first, but Zhang Miao offered a condition that he could not refuse: if the improvement was successful, Zhuo Jian and all those who helped could share the additional profits. The more they sold, the more they would share. If the calculation was based on the current output, it would be about 100 gold a year. If the quality of dyes is improved and the sales are broadened, the profits would be richer. Alchemy is to burn money, with more than 100 gold a year, and Zhuo Jian would be much more affordable.

It is beneficial to the great cause of immortality, but Jian agreed readily.

Not long after, Yuan Tan and He Yong arrived. They were all surprised to see Zhang Miao and Sun Ce chatting and laughing. After hearing what happened, Yuan Tan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that Xin Pi was in good condition.

——

Wen Chou put his hand on the guard's shoulder, slowly walked out of the big tent, sat on the Hu bed beside him, and watched the attendant knight compete for martial arts.

Xu Shengzheng competes with Liu Hu in spear methods. Liu Hu has a good martial arts skills and is good at using spears. He fights Xu Sheng for more than ten times without a chance to decide the outcome. Some of the others are applauding, while others are scolding, and all the same.

Ma Chao brought Pang De and others to come over. Seeing Wen Chou sitting aside, he rushed over with great strides. He tapped his palm with a horse whip, looked Wen Chou up and down for a moment, and said with a smile: "Your life is so hard, you haven't died after shedding so much blood."

Wen Chou looked at Ma Chao and nodded to Pang De. He was taken out by Pang De from the prisoner camp. If Ma Chao thought, he would have died at that time. Later, he went all the way, thanks to Pang De's care, otherwise he would have been difficult for him to survive.

Pang De's head slightly and did not make a sound.

"Oh, most of them have fought with you, saying that you have good martial arts skills. When your injury heals, will we fight with you?"

Wen Chou frowned. "I heard you were injured too."

Ma Chao didn't care. "That little flesh injury is nothing, it must be better than you."

"Okay, if you have the chance, I want to compete fairly with you." Wen Chou said, turning his head to look at Xu Sheng and others who were competing, showing a bit of ruthlessness and reluctance in his words. He was attacked in a hurry and lost too unfairly.

"There is only one way to compete fairly." Sun Ce walked over from the side and said loudly: "If you play for me, you will have the opportunity to compete fairly with any of them, including me, there is no problem."

Ma Chao quickly stood up straight, put away his hippie smile, and bowed to greet him. "General."

Everyone also came over to salute. Wen Chou was stunned for a moment, and slowly stood up. Sun Ce walked up and looked at Wen Chou up and down. "I looked good, I seemed to have survived it. Why, I was not convinced by losing?"

Wen Chou sneered: "Can you accept the general if you fight one against fifteen? "

"Then we have more than 200 people who have broken you for more than 2,000 riders, and you won't accept it?"

Wen Chou was speechless and his face was a little flushed.

"You are a general, not an ordinary warrior, that is a battlefield, not a school martial arts field, where can fairness come from?" Sun Yi put the Hu bed in his hand and sent it behind Sun Ce. Sun Ce's thighs were injured, and he had not recovered yet, so he could not stand for a long time. He sat down slowly and stretched his legs straight. "There is only one possibility to compete fairly, become my subordinates like them. If you don't want to fight against Yuan Shao, I can arrange for you to another battlefield."

"What if I don't?"

Sun Ce raised his eyelids and glanced at Wen Chou. "Then I will chop you down. Could it be that I spent so much money to cure you with all my efforts and give you the opportunity to be enemies with me?"

Wen Chou's face suddenly became very ugly, and his eyes became vicious. Sun Ce disagreed. "I heard that your great-grandfather, Emperor Ming, was a lieutenant of Wuhuan when he was the emperor. Why did he go back more and more? He actually wanted to follow Liu He, so why would he be afraid of embarrassing his ancestors?"
