Chapter 151 The credit is handed to me, and I still have to say thank you? (Bonus chapter upon release)
Xudu.
The entire city of Xudu was bustling with unprecedented prosperity.
Countless people came out to line the streets to welcome them.
The city gates swung open, and countless Cao soldiers lined up on either side in high spirits.
At the city gate stood two people.
They are Xun or Su Chen.
The military officers stood on either side, their faces filled with joy.
The reason was none other than Cao Cao's triumphant return.
"Jingming is truly a remarkable person."
"In this confrontation with Yuan Shao, we forced Yuan's army to retreat without lifting a finger."
"And they also received such a substantial amount of grain and supplies."
"I truly admire you!"
While waiting, Xun Huo couldn't help but gasp and bowed to Su Chen.
These words truly came from the bottom of their hearts.
Xun Yu knew very well how difficult it was to deal with Biao Shao.
Previously, those responsible for guarding against Yuan Shao were Xun Yu, who was stationed in the rear.
He had never achieved such a brilliant record when facing Yuan Shao.
However, Su Chen did it.
In just a few days, he made one remarkable achievement after another.
To recapture the four occupied cities.
They captured 50,000 elite soldiers alive.
They captured Yan Liang and Wen Chou alive.
These are just proof that Su Chen is an outstanding strategist.
However, that's not all. After Su Chen did all this, Yuan Shao had no choice but to remain silent.
Instead, they obediently delivered so much food and supplies.
Xun was shocked when he heard about Su Chenyan's act of plucking feathers.
The way he looks at Su Chen now is completely different.
It was full of praise and affirmation.
In fact, the ancients' thinking was that simple.
If you have ability, you will naturally earn respect.
Especially people of Xun's status.
"Lord Xun, if you keep praising me, you'll make my face bloom with joy."
"These are nothing."
"When you get to Sikong later, be sure not to say that."
"Just say that Yuan Shao was arrogant and careless, and then you and I joined forces to take back the city."
"We just happened to steal some supplies along the way."
Su Chen immediately waved his hand and said.
Upon hearing this, Xun was dumbfounded.
He looked at Su Chen with a bewildered expression: "Jingming, what makes you say that?"
"This is all your credit; how can I claim any share?"
"Does Jingming perhaps think I'm the kind of person who steals credit?"
Su Chen waved his hand and said, "Lord Xun, I know your character all too well."
"But I really don't want credit."
"It's settled then, thank you so much."
Seeing Su Chen's sincere expression, Xun Huo was dumbfounded.
Having lived most of his life, this was the first time he had ever heard such words.
Don't want credit, so you want to divide the credit equally?
What kind of talk is that?
Many people fought tooth and nail to get it, but couldn't win it.
But when it comes to Su Chen, they keep their distance?
That makes no sense.
"No, Jingming."
"I absolutely dare not agree to this."
Xun waved his hand hastily and said righteously.
Xun Lingjun was an upright and honest man throughout his life.
Even if Su Chen asked him to, he would never do such a thing.
Seeing Xun Huo's reaction, Su Chen sighed helplessly, "Lord Xun, I mean it."
"I really don't want credit, and I don't want an official position."
"This position of registrar is quite good for me now."
"If it works, I'd love to give you all the credit this time."
Xun was completely dumbfounded: "Why? Why on earth?"
He now feels that Su Chen has shaken his entire worldview.
The impact was devastating.
I'll tell you the truth.
Su Chen sighed and said, "I am just a commoner, not even from a poor family."
"If someone achieves great merit in the military, what will others think of them?"
"Lord Xun is upright and would not view me in this way."
"But what about the other aristocratic families?"
"I just want to live a peaceful life as the Cao family's son-in-law and my junior clerk."
"I don't want anything else."
"Lord Xun, please agree, just for the sake of my well-being in my later years."
'
,
Xun was speechless.
Does he only want to be a live-in son-in-law and not want to make any contributions?
What kind of logic is that?
However, Su Chen's words reminded Xun Huo.
That's really how it is, and he doesn't seem to care.
However, powerful clans like the Yang and Sima families saw Su Chen, a commoner, rise to prominence.
How could we just ignore it like that?
Moreover, Xunzi was quite clear about Cao Cao's character.
The greater the merit, the more suspicious Cao Cao became.
"I never imagined Jingming would think that way."
Seeing this, Xun could only shake his head helplessly and give a bitter smile.
Unexpectedly, Su Chen, despite his young age, is so shrewd.
"Does Lord Xun mean he agrees?"
Su Chen said with a sigh of relief.
He was originally thinking about how to avoid taking credit for it.
As soon as Xun Huo appeared, he immediately found the best breakthrough.
If Xun Yu agrees, given his reputation, he will surely overwhelm you.
At that time, apart from Yuan Shao, who had truly fought against him, no one else would know.
Unlike in modern times, in ancient times, news spread entirely through rumors and word of mouth.
As long as it doesn't affect other places, one can hide well.
"That being said, I still can't do this."
Xun waved his hand and said, "At most, I can only say that you and I came up with a plan together."
"This credit must not be entirely claimed by me."
Xun originally intended to firmly refuse.
But after hearing Su Chen's heartfelt words, he couldn't help but relax.
"That's good, that's good."
"Lord Xun, you are truly a good person."
I love you to death.
"6
Su Chen said with a smile.
These words made Xun Huo's face twitch.
This is the first time I've heard of someone being grateful for sharing credit with others.
And what's more—suddenly declaring in public that he absolutely loves himself?!
Who wouldn't find that offensive?
Xun realized that he really couldn't see through Su Chen at all.
However, this is only because of Su Chen; if it were anyone else, Xun Huo would not be able to accept it.
Su Chen often utters strange and obscure words that are difficult to understand.
He's used to it.
"Da da da".
Just as the two were discussing...
Suddenly, the heavy sound of horses' hooves came from not far away.
It's Cao Cao's army!
Immediately, the surrounding soldiers were all invigorated.
The soldiers holding the horns puffed out their cheeks, ready to play at any moment.
Cao Cao has returned to the capital in triumph!
Su Chenxun and the other two were ready to bow.
The entire city of Xuchang awaited Cao Cao's return with utmost anticipation.
The sound of horses' hooves grew closer.
Soon, Cao Cao, wearing a cloak, rode his horse toward Su Chenxun or the other two.
"Hahaha, Lord Xun, Jingming!"
"You two have truly given me a wonderful surprise!"
As soon as he arrived in front of the two men, Cao Cao dismounted and said with a smile.
After winning the battle, the troubles with Yuan Shao in the rear were also quelled.
Cao Cao was overjoyed.
Just then, Su Chen suddenly spoke up: "Sikong, you mustn't say that."
"This matter is mostly due to the efforts of Lord Xun."
"I was merely following the orders of Lord Xun."
Never be greedy for credit!
