Thirty miles north of Shouchun City, on the bank of Yingshui, Lu Bu's soldiers and horses were stationed here, waiting for news from Yuan Shu.

Zhou Yu received Yan Xiang's order, representing Yuan Shu's side, and comforting Yuan Shu's army at Lu Bujun before his accurate order was issued.

Although Lu Bu had not heard of Zhou Yu's name, he also knew it after hearing that he had reported to his home.

Even though Lu Bu was born in Jiuyuan, he also knew that the third and second dukes of the Zhou family in Lujiang were really wealthy families, and to a certain extent, they could barely be on the same table as the Yuan family of Runan.

Even if Zhou Yu is not famous now, but if he rushes to the four words of Lujiang Zhou, he will be given a little thin face wherever he goes.

Lu Bu immediately set up a banquet in the tent to invite Zhou Yu.

Lu Bu's background is very ordinary, and deep in his heart, he has always longed for the support and friendship of the scholars.

He was born at the bottom and wanted to break into the aristocratic circle, which is a very normal psychological phenomenon.

The problem is that some things are not as simple as he thinks.

In the eyes of most of the scholars, Lu Bu is just a brave man, and he is still a slave with three surnames, such a barbarian is only worthy of being in the company of soldiers and ruffians and big bosses, he is capable of fighting and killing, and he still leans aside for the high-end activities of the upper class.

Most of the scholars disdained to associate with Lü Bu.

For the matter of not being able to break into the Shi clan, Lu Bu has always been haunted in his heart, and even hated from love, for many years, he has always had resistance and disgust to the Shi clan group in his heart that cannot be described in words.

At the beginning in Kyoto, Dong Zhuo repeatedly ordered Lu Bu to slaughter the officials and nobles of the dynasty, which really choked Lu Bushuang.

Let you bastards look down on Bensho?

is very unrestrained in behavior, but in fact, he has low self-esteem in his heart, and Lu Bu's subconscious still wants to be recognized by the scholars.

But today, Zhou Yu, who is a child of a wealthy family, is very face-saving to Lu Bu, and between communicating with each other, Zhou Yu is very enthusiastic and honest with Lu Bu, and his elegance and kindness unknowingly infected Lu Bu.

Lu Bu's self-esteem was suddenly returned!

It turns out that Lao Tzu is not unpopular with the scholars.

Isn't this a young talent who will be in the middle of this?

Who said that Ben would not be able to mix with the second generation of officials!

In the tent, Lu Bu and Zhou Yu chatted extremely speculatively, and he also called the important people under his command to introduce his right-hand men to Zhou Yu one by one.

Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Chen Gong, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hao Meng, Hou Cheng, Cheng Lian and so on.

Zhou Yu is very elegant, acting with both grace and backbone, after greeting everyone one by one, the generals under Lu Bu are surprisingly unanimous in their affection for this young man.

The main reason is that Zhou Yu is too dominant.

The handsome and chic ones are too handsome, and the big bosses in the state are exposed to the wind and sun all day long, when have you ever seen such a handsome guy?

Lu Bu ordered someone to send wine and meat, and had a banquet with Zhou Yu.

Except for Chen Gong, who was born in the Yanzhou clan, the other military generals present were not reserved figures, and they were all big and rough.

For a while, the cup was changed in the tent, eating and drinking, and the toasts and shouts were endless.

Halfway through the banquet, he saw Zhou Yu taking advantage of a little drunkenness, and suddenly got up to salute Lu Bu with a jue of wine: "In the next generation of Confucianism, I have long admired the prestige of Wenhou, like thunder, I have the honor to meet today, it is really as powerful and majestic as rumored, and it is really a heavenly posture!" Yu respects the Marquis Wen's wine, and congratulates the sincerity of the prestige of the Marquis Wen. ”

Lu Bu gave Zhou Yu a lot of face, so he also stood up and drank with Zhou Yu.

"Ben will be fortunate to meet Gong Jin, and it is also a great joy in life, come! You and I drink this knight to my heart's content!. ”

After the two sat down, Chen Gong, who had been quietly observing Zhou Yu, suddenly spoke.

"I heard that Gong Jin was in Lujiang in the past, and the general Hou was repeatedly summoned but did not come, but at the beginning of last year, he was attached to the account of the general Hou with Sun Ce of Wu County...... Doesn't that seem inappropriate? I Guan Gongjin is a young man, such a simple Taoist ideal must be understood, I don't know what Zhou's plan for this matter, or what other thoughts? ”

Lu Bu was very unhappy when he listened to it.

Chen Gong's words are really unpleasant!

We just met Zhou Yu, and you asked each other such a sensitive question, is it too much to slap each other's face?

This is my brother I just had, who are you questioning there?

It's not easy to make friends with a wealthy family of three generations and two dukes, don't mess with me you bastard!

At that moment, Lu Bu said to Chen Gong: "Gongtai, this is a private matter of the Zhou family, and it seems to have nothing to do with us." ”

Chen Gong smiled and turned his head to look at him, and said very gently: "The Lujiang Zhou clan is a rare noble family in the dynasty, and the style of acting has always been rigorous, and sometimes its actions even represent the direction of the wind, and the deep meaning contained in it is probably not known to Wen Hou." ”

Chen Gong said this very politely, but in Lu Bu's ears, it meant something else.

The meaning of these words to Lu Bu is: This is a matter of our cultural circle, you blind scoundrel don't understand it, so don't mix it up!

Lu Bu's heart was not big, and after pondering for a while, his face turned red with anger.

What he hates the most is that these noble families put on a sense of superiority in front of him at every turn, as if they can't understand the affairs of their aristocratic circle, and a low-level martial artist like himself can't understand it at all.

It's so fucking arrogant!

In fact, Chen Gong didn't mean this at all, but it was not easy to say it in front of Zhou Yu, and he would mention Lu Bu on the side, but Lu Bu himself was thinking about it.

Zhou Yu looked at Chen Gong quietly, and there was a wave in his heart.

This person is not simple, he seems to be asking about his career on the surface, but in fact, he is using words to probe his own intentions.

Among the generals of Lu Bujun, only this person saw that he had other intentions under Yuan Shu.

It seems that there are some things that can't be clarified with Lu Bu today, and they need to be infiltrated in the future.

Zhou Yu, the name of Chen Gong, had also heard a little, and knew that he, like Zhang Miao, was an important figure in the Yanzhou scholar clan.

Some time ago, the two of them instigated the Yanzhou scholars to lead the Xiliang army and the Bingzhou army to fight against Cao Cao. Although he was slightly inferior to Cao Cao and ultimately failed, he still saw that Chen Gong was capable after hearing about it.

After the failure of the matter, Zhang Miao fled with Li Dao, and Chen Gong took refuge in the south with Lu Bu.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu smiled politely, bowed and said: "Brother Gongtai's words are also true, but things are not as complicated as my brother thinks, Yu devoted himself to the command of the general, because the righteous brother Sun Lang was mourning, and before he returned to Huainan to defect to Yuan Gong, he had written to Yu, Yu remembered the friendship when he was young, so they followed each other and took care of each other, that's all. ”

Chen Gong is not an idle person, Zhou Yu's perfunctory words were quickly grasped by him.

"Oh! It turned out to be because of Sun Lang. ”

Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Yes, my brother Sun Bofu is a young hero, the year before last, he turned to Huainan and replaced his cousin Sun Ben to take charge of the late Wentai Gong's old department. Brother Bofu has long admired the name of Wenhou, and knows that Wenhou is the first famous general in the world, and he has long wanted to meet and ask for advice, and now he finally got what he wanted. ”

Lu Bu was very satisfied when he heard this.

"The son of Sun Wentai, the Jiangdong Tiger...... Jing Wu is the world's number one general? ”

Zhou Yu smiled and bowed: "Exactly, Brother Bo Fu has a saying, today, the only people who can be called famous generals are Wen Hou and General Sun Wentai." ”

Lu Bu was very happy to see Zhou Yu talking like this.

Regardless of whether this is true or not, with the power of the Sun family in the south, Zhou Yuken compares himself with Sun Ce's father, which is really highly respected.

Lu Bu couldn't help laughing.

After the banquet was over, Lu Bu personally sent Zhou Yu out of the camp.

Looking at Zhou Yu's disappearing back, Lu Bu's heart felt satisfied.

For the first time in his life, he was touted by the sons and daughters of the Shi clan, which was indeed unprecedented.

Zhou Yu, this kid really has vision, he must be a promising person in the future!

Chen Gong stood behind Lu Bu, looking at Zhou Yu's back as he faded away, with a contemplative look on his face.

"Can Wen Hou see what Zhou Yu is here for today?"

Lu Bu didn't even look at Chen Gong, and said lightly: "For what?" As the envoy of Yuan Shu, he was ordered to come to appease us and others...... Perhaps, it's also because I look forward to the general, so I want to meet my true face for a while, hahahaha. ”

Chen Gong rolled his eyes when he heard this.

"Wen Hou, things are like this on the surface, but in fact, it is not so simple, according to the following, Zhou Yu is representing Sun Ce this time, and he is here to explore the details of Wen Hou."

"Dig into my bottom line?" Lu Bu was puzzled: "What did he do to find out the general?" ”

Chen Gong sneered: "This Zhou Yu is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and he is a character who does not leak between his words, and his righteous brother Sun Ce must not be an idle person...... Come to think of it, the son of the Jiangdong Tiger must not be a person who has lived under the people for a long time. ”

At this moment, Lu Bu somewhat understood the deep meaning of Chen Gong's words.

"The meaning of Gongtai is that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu have no intention of serving under Yuan Shu for a long time...... But to be self-reliant? ”

Chen Gong nodded and said, "Other than that, I really can't think of any reason for Zhou Yu to refuse Yuan Shu first, and then return to serve." ”

"Then what you said in Shicai, he observed Yu Benjiang, didn't he want to ......?"

Chen Gong nodded affirmatively and said: "Although the soldiers and horses of the Sun family are strong, they have not been expanded since the death of Sun Wentai, if Sun Ce wants to stand on his own, I am afraid that his strength is insufficient. ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he couldn't help but feel a thrill.

"Gongtai, is this matter possible?"

Chen Gong waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, let's watch while walking, and follow Zhou Yu's example, and stand by under Yuan Shu's account, if there is a chance in the future, it may not be impossible to seize the foundation of Huainan." ”
