Chapter 401: Pride
Yang Xiu had a firm thought in his heart,
His eyes gradually brightened,
The warm smile on his lips again,
Clasped his hands into fists and saluted respectfully again, saying:
"Wen Hou's clever calculation, I really admire it!"
Yang Xiu took the initiative to bow his head,
On the contrary, everyone present looked down on him,
This person is also neat,
It's not like other poor and rotten people who want to die to save face and suffer crimes,
This trick seems to be showing weakness,
In fact, it is extremely clever to retreat into advance,
Now that Lu Bu has guessed his intentions,
In this way, put down the posture,
On the contrary, it is easier to gain the favor of the other party,
At this time, Yang Xiu achieved such an effect.
The faces of the people changed,
was also in full view of Yang Xiu,
At this time, although the smile on his face was still very restrained,
But there was a hint of pride in the depths of his eyes,
He finally felt the initiative begin to return to his hands,
However, at this time, this kind of initiative and talent are completely different.
If it is said that Lu Bu seized the strategic initiative,
So now what Yang Xiu has gained is the tactical initiative,
Yang Xiu stood up straight,
looked at Lu Budao with burning eyes:
"What Wen Hou said just now is true, and the purpose of coming here is to hope to be able to make friendship with Wen Hou on behalf of our Hongnong Yang family."
Lu Bu's face was slightly straight,
This Yang Xiu was still unwilling to be led away by Lu Bu like this,
I also want to fight for the interests of my family,
But Lu Bu won't get into Yang Xiu's set so easily,
He met Yang Xiu's gaze,
Seriously:
"Young Master Yang, I don't think you seem to have figured out a thing."
The expression on Yang Xiu's face was slightly stiff,
As smart as he was, he naturally guessed the meaning of Lu Bu's words,
Shut your mouth tightly,
Looking directly at Lu Bu on the main seat,
In this way, the protest was carried out in silence.
The corners of Lu Bu's mouth are obliquely hooked,
A playful smile appeared on his face,
He didn't care about Yang Xiu's performance at the moment,
However, he also very much hopes to form an alliance with the Yang family.
After all, the other party is a behemoth whose reputation is not weaker than that of the Yuan clan in Runan.
But Yang Xiu is too arrogant,
If you don't give him a little hardship,
I'm afraid he won't be able to figure out his position and identity,
In the original history,
Yang Xiu has been clever many times,
guessed Cao Cao's thoughts,
And in public,
In order to show their ability,
And he said it,
Provoked the disaster of death.
This is naturally just the perception of ordinary people,
In fact, for the kind of people who specialized in history in Lu Bu's previous life,
And those who are very interested in the history of the Three Kingdoms know that
Yang Xiu's real cause of death,
It was when Cao Cao was still in the prime of life,
Yang Xiu was arrogant and arrogant and mixed into Cao Cao's school heirs,
This is obviously a taboo against Cao Cao,
He who appears before men will be envied by men;
Self-righteousness will be displeased;
If you do something else, you will not be tolerated.
All these three points,
That's what makes this talented young man,
was directly beheaded by Cao Cao,
And at the same time,
No one has yet come forward to intercede for him.
You know, in the era of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty,
All pay attention to the friendship of comrades,
If relatives and friends are in danger,
The sword will be inserted in both ribs to repay,
This is a value of this era,
But Yang Xiu, as the most important child of the Yang family,
And at the beginning,
is also deeply trusted and loved by Cao Cao,
Give him the important position of the chief bookkeeper,
But he turned out to have a good hand,
Played a stinky game,
In the end, it ended up miserable and desolate,
After his death, when his father Yang Biao met Cao Cao,
can only say that sentence,
"I am ashamed of the foresight of the sun, and I still cherish the love of the old cow licking the calf."
But he didn't dare to accuse Cao Cao at all.
For the Son is better than the Father,
How could Yang Biao not know some of his son Yang Xiu's problems?
Saying this,
In fact, it is a sigh of helplessness and guilt.
Today, Lu Bu saw Yang Xiu with his own eyes,
At this time he was still very young,
Although it is not as exaggerated as described in the history books,
But that arrogance is not comparable to ordinary people,
Lu Bu still cherishes this talent,
If it is an alliance with the Yang family,
Lu Bu really wants to keep this Yang Xiu,
But, no matter what,
The heavy pride in him,
But it must be suppressed all at once.
After waiting for a long time,
Yang Xiu still refused to speak,
Lu Bu turned his head not to look at him,
Fang Lin suddenly asked:
"Follow up the affairs of the three major families in Hedong as soon as possible, especially the Pei family, but give them more benefits appropriately, Pei Ji, this kid is very good, and he actually made the family completely throw himself into us, so we can't lose our courtesy."
Fang Lin is also a smart person,
Hearing this, he immediately stood up,
Lang Sheng replied:
"No, my subordinates will go and arrange it, and they will definitely settle the three major families properly."
The three major families in Hedong?
The Yang family in Hongnong County,
For the neighbors next to him, it is naturally very familiar,
Hedong Pei's, Liu's, Xue's,
The strength of the three families is not weak,
Most importantly,
These three families are still in the same spirit,
It has greatly increased its power,
Even if they are as strong as their Hongnong Yang clan,
Or the Yuan clan of Runan,
I don't dare to easily underestimate these three families,
Listen to Lu Bu's meaning,
These three families have now caught up with Lu Bu's line,
And the Pei family, who is the leader of the three major families,
Ran completely defected to Lu Bu,
This blockbuster news,
But it really shocked Yang Xiu.
But he didn't dare to question the truth of it,
After all, such a thing,
Lu Bu had no need and could not deceive him,
This Yulu County is one of the important strongholds of the three major families.
Yang Xiu is naturally very clear,
As early as when he learned that Lu Bu was staying here,
I have already guessed,
The reason why Lu Bu came here on purpose,
I'm afraid it's to fight for the three families,
After all, among the wealthy families in Guanzhong,
Hongnong Yang is too far away,
Jingzhao Merriam-Webster is deeply rooted,
None of them are the best options for alliances,
In comparison, the three major families in Hedong,
This unified but independent group organization,
On the contrary, Lu Bu is now allied,
And the best choice to stabilize the situation in Guanzhong,
Yang Xiu hurried here quickly,
A large part of the reason,
is also hoping to be able to catch up with the alliance between the three major families,
Negotiate cooperation with Lu Bu first,
But the reality is very cruel,
I didn't expect Lu Bu to be one step faster,
If he knew,
Just before he came,
The alliance between the two sides has just begun,
I'm afraid that this son of the Yang family,
The bowels will immediately turn blue.
Even so,
After hearing the news,
Yang Xiu was still very surprised,
However, Lu Bu still didn't pay attention to him,
deliberately left him aside,
It's just that out of the corner of his eye, I saw his appearance at the moment,
I felt a burst of darkness.
After Fang Lin was ordered to exit the room,
Lu Bu turned his head to Lou Gui and said:
"Uncle Zi, the placement of the Yingchuan Zhong clan and the Jingzhao Du clan will cost you a lot of trouble. They must be able to completely settle down in Guanzhong in the shortest possible time. Now that Guanzhong is in a depression, there are still so many official hats. Xianzhong, Zibo, whose head these official hats are put on is completely up to the two of you to decide, and I will not interfere in any way. ”
Lu Bu's words fell,
The two hurriedly got up and answered,
Turning around, he also walked away quickly.
The corners of Yang Xiu's eyes kept twitching,
He didn't dare to look up at Lu Bu at the moment,
The lowered eyes kept turning,
Lu Bu obviously said these words to him,
But even if Yang Xiu knew,
But I had to listen to it,
It's just that the bitterness and discomfort in my heart are getting thicker and thicker.
Lu Bu looked at Zhang Jidao, who was still sitting in the room:
"De Rong, the stability of Yulu County depends on you, not only Yulu County, but also this Fufeng County, even including most of Guanzhong, now that the army is about to be used, although we have enough strength, but if there is no stable rear, everything is empty talk. Your task is also very heavy, not only do you need to support the Western Regions Expeditionary Force, but also to stabilize the situation in the south, and you also have to coordinate the relationship between the three major families. ”
Zhang Ji stood up and said with a hearty smile:
"Hahaha, it is the luck of Derong that the lord trusts Derong so much, and he will definitely repay the favor of the lord for knowing the encounter!"
After speaking, he arched his hand towards Lu Bu,
Then he turned to Yang Xiu and nodded slightly,
Then he turned around and left here.
Now, in the whole empty house,
There were only two people sitting and one standing,
Lu Bu finally moved his gaze back to Yang Xiu's body,
Yang Xiu also happened to raise his head and look at Lu Bu at this moment.
Lu Bu's smile was relaxed and proud,
The smile on Yang Xiu's face was full of bitterness,
Shook his head with a wry smile,
Whispered:
"Wenhou, why bother."
"Treat others the way they do."
After Yang Xiu heard Lu Bu's answer,
His face fell even more,
At this time, he even had to pump his own heart,
I immediately understood where the problem was.
Remembering before leaving,
My father once told me in every way,
Let him remember not to be mistaken by pride,
I didn't expect to finally meet Lu Bu today,
The first time we met, I made such an impression on each other,
The key also made the other party repair it fiercely,
This immediately made Yang Xiu feel endless frustration.
Lu Bu has been observing Yang Xiu coldly,
After seeing the look of chagrin on his face,
I can't help but feel a little proud in my heart,
It seems that a series of his actions have had an effect,
And it seems that this Yang Xiu has not yet reached the point of hopelessness,
As long as the other party can feel the emotion of remorse,
That means there is still room for turnaround,
Lu Bu said softly:
"Young Master Yang, there is nothing wrong with young people being arrogant, and, from a certain point of view, this is still a good thing."
Yang Xiu looked at Lu Bu suspiciously.
Lu Bu smiled at him kindly,
Stretched out a hand and gestured to Yang Xiu:
"Please sit down and talk."
Yang Xiu saluted respectfully,
Then he walked to the side of the seat,
Kneeling down upright,
Just like a student in front of the teacher,
Seeing Yang Xiu's attitude,
The smile on Lu Bu's face was even stronger,
He picked up the tea on the table,
took a shallow sip,
Then he spoke slowly:
"I'm a few years older than you, so I'll be older and talk to you."
When Yang Xiu heard this, he immediately straightened his body,
Pulled it up again,
Make the appearance of listening attentively.
"Once when I was your age, I was even more arrogant than you, conceited that my force was not weak, and I didn't put the world in my eyes, but once, above my mansion, I was defeated by someone in a few moves, and the other party deliberately let me."
Yang Xiu was immediately stunned when he heard this,
looked at Lu Bu in disbelief,
It is rumored that Lu Bu has won all battles,
There is almost no time to lose,
Even under the Tiger Prison,
In the face of the heroes of the world,
Continuous wheel battles,
Lu Budu rarely meets opponents,
Until the birth of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, the three brothers,
is worthy of fighting Lu Bu to a draw.
How could there be anyone in the situation where they wanted to,
can also easily defeat Lu Bu,
For Yang Xiu,
It's unimaginable.
But this matter came out of Lu Bu's mouth,
There is absolutely no possibility of fabrication,
Yang Xiu swallowed his saliva,
didn't dare to open his mouth to interrupt Lu Bu's words.
"That person is the world-famous swordsman Wang Yue. Now he's in my state too. ”
Yang Xiu's face showed a sudden look when he heard this,
Wang Yue and Tong Yuan are called 'swords and guns',
Fame has long spread all over the world,
If it is said that ten years ago, in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty,
A few of the most familiar people to the common people,
There are Zheng Xuan, Cai Yong and others in the literary world,
In the martial arts,
Wang Yue and Tong Yuan's reputations are the loudest,
And compared to Tong Yuan's divine dragon, he doesn't see the end of the head,
Wang Yue, who is more enthusiastic about being an official,
To be familiar to all,
Therefore, after Yang Xiu heard that Lu Bu was defeated by Wang Yue,
There was no more surprise or doubt.
Lu Bu smiled slightly,
Suddenly asked:
"Young Master Yang, but if it wasn't Wang Yue who defeated me at that time, but someone else, or even my enemy, and the location of that competition was not in my mansion, but in the battlefield, then what would be the result?"
After Yang Xiu heard Lu Bu's question,
Stunned again,
Naturally, he didn't think about the problem Lu Bu said.
But at this moment, he immediately understood the meaning of Lu Bu's words,
I can't help but start thinking in my heart,
If you really say to Lu Bu,
Then the consequences are unimaginable.
It is very likely that Lu Bu will die at that time,
So today's foundation,
Naturally, there is no way to talk about it.
At the same time, Yang Xiu immediately understood,
Lu Bu is going through this matter of his own,
Come and warn him Yang Xiu,
Arrogance is one thing,
But the arrogance of the unseen child must not be allowed,
There are people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains,
This sentence must be kept in mind at all times,
Yang Xiu's eyes changed slightly,
Straightened his sitting posture again,
Respectfully saluted Lu Bu with the etiquette of a disciple,
"Thank you Wenhou for your advice, Xiu Minggan Wunei!"
Lu Bu stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his cheek and beard,
calmly accepted Yang Xiu's thanks,
When Yang Xiu straightened up,
Only then did he slowly speak:
"Alright, now let's get down to business."
