Under Yuan Shu's earnestness, the army took the county of Qiaoxian with few soldiers and generals in just one day, and then swept through Yuzhou.

The whole process of taking Yuzhou can be said to be peaceful, Liu Bei, who has given up on Yuzhou in his heart, is mostly a remnant of defeated soldiers who stay here, and capable generals and strategists are also taken away, and even a lot of people are coerced. If it weren't for Liu Bei's strong personal charm, there were many die-hard generals and soldiers in the local area, and Yuan Shu didn't even need to spend such a little effort, and the transmission could be determined.

Liu Xuande doesn't talk about ability, Yuan Shu really admires his ability to win people's hearts. However, in the three years in Yuzhou, so many local people and soldiers were loyal to him, and Yuan Shu suspected that he was not selling straw shoes in the past, but engaged in pyramid schemes. can support in troubled times for so many years, and there is really no fuel-efficient lamp!

"Didn't Xun Yue leave with Liu Xuande?" After capturing Qian County, Yuan Shu got the news from the Xun family and was quite surprised.

"Zhong Yu was already in seclusion when Liu Xuande sent troops, and now he lives at home to repair books and annotations, does the lord want to recruit him?" Xun You is very aware of Yuan Shuyan's character of plucking feathers and making the best use of people, and it is impossible to tolerate Xun Yue's talent being so "decadent", so he simply said bluntly.

"Naturally, this kind of thing is left to those boring students. A great talent, who doesn't think about benefiting the community and governing the people, what is the matter of staying at home? Drag him out of my house quickly, or I will set fire to his house. Yuan Shu said viciously.

"Yes!" Hearing Yuan Shu's words, Xun You's eyelids were palpable. You must know that Xun Yue is his uncle, and the place where he lives in seclusion is also the ancestral house of the Xun family, according to Yuan Shu's character, it is estimated that he can really do this, in case the ancestral house is burned down, he has no place to cry.

"Fengxiao, you go out for a walk with me!" After Xun Yu left, Yuan Shu suddenly said.

"Yes!" Guo Jia nodded.

Then the two of them left the city lord's mansion together and went to the city.

Yuan Shu and Guo Jia did not make a big show, but dressed in civilian clothes, like a pair of scholars who traveled the world, talking and laughing around the city. Dian Wei also changed his clothes and followed closely, like a domestic servant, and Xu Chu, the target of this product was too big, and he was directly abandoned by Yuan Shu.

Along the way, looking at the sighs of the people in the city, and the dissatisfaction with the look of his subordinates, Yuan Shu's mood slowly sank. It wasn't until he walked to a small bridge and saw the words engraved on the monument next to the bridge that Yuan Shu's face completely darkened.

"What a Liu Xuande, this ability to win people's hearts may have a fight with Gaozu." Yuan Shu looked at Liu Xuande's exploits engraved by the people on the stone tablet, and his mood was extremely angry.

Guo Jia said with interest: "This Liu Xuande is interesting, he has not done many practical things over the years of occupying Yuzhou, and he has not seen any improvement in the lives of the people in Yuzhou, and even decreased a little due to frequent wars. But the people of Yuzhou just think it's good, and people have erected monuments for the bridge. It's a bit like the group of fanatical believers under Zhang Jiao's command at the beginning! ”

Yuan Shu said angrily: "I don't know what ecstasy soup he poured into the people of Yuzhou, according to his expedition to Yanzhou for only one month, under his raised arms, nearly half of the people of the state have left, it is really evil." What's so good about that big-eared thief? can only draw empty cakes, there is not much ability, and it is a hand to play with people's hearts. ”

Guo Jia chuckled and said, "The lord is jealous?" Playing with people's hearts is also a thing! Liu Xuande's ability to win people's hearts is also extremely terrifying. ”

Yuan Shu glared at Guo Jia hatefully, and complained: "It is said that the homeland is difficult to leave, I gave so many benefits and promises to those people, but there are still not many people willing to relocate." But what about Liu Xuande? With a slight touch of the upper and lower mouths, these people will run with each other, do you think I can not be angry? ”

Yuan Shu felt a little kind in his heart at this time, he was very kind to be treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, he worked hard for the people, and provided so many benefits, but it was not as good as Liu Bei's empty promise, which would not be comfortable in anyone's heart.

As soon as Yuan Shu was defeated, Jia Xu was ordered to open a warehouse to release grain, give relief to the poor, and send troops to maintain law and order, give porridge and build houses to work for relief, and a series of actions followed. But these hungry people under Yuan Shu's command seemed to be reluctantly taking his benefits, while sighing and thinking about Liu Bei, if it weren't for Yuan Shu's good temper, he would have directly sent troops to arrest them.

When Guo Jia heard this, he smiled and pulled Yuan Shu to a tavern without saying a word, randomly picked a corner against the wall, ordered a pot of good wine and two side dishes, and ignored Yuan Shu's depressed mood.

As the lord of one party, Yuan Shu can be said to be severely victimized paranoia, and rarely drinks and eats outside, especially in this kind of state city that has just been taken, there are many people and mixed mouths, and he doesn't even touch it. His monarchy is gifted with the ability to distinguish between friendly and hateful others, but not poison. Sitting opposite Guo Jia, he watched him eat there unhappily, thinking about how to find some work for this goods after he went back.

The tavern is a place where passers-by rest and pedestrians eat and drink, and everyone has it, and the news is the most complicated. Soon, four big men sat down at the next table on the right side of Yuan Shu, drinking lightly and letting the store serve food and wine.

"Third child, you've made a fortune recently! Wouldn't it be nice to bring us here to eat and have a whole table of dishes at home, so why spend so much? The big man sitting diagonally opposite Yuan Shu said. He has dark skin and a simple complexion, and is about 30 years old, and is supposed to be a local farmer.

"Hey, hey! The dishes at home are not as good as here, not to mention that there is a good Jiangnan Spring, let's try it too. The big man who was sitting in a row with Yuan Shu said with a smile, unceremoniously and directly picked up the wine jug that had just come up, poured it into his cup, and drank it all.

"Second uncle, it's rare for the third uncle to have a treat, don't chatter, eat quickly." The big man with his back to Yuan Shu said, his voice was clear, and he knew that he was not very old when he heard it, and he should be about twenty. While holding the dishes uncontrollably, he picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for the second uncle in his mouth, and then poured a glass himself and drank it all.

"Cool! Sure enough, it's a good wine! After drinking the wine, the big man exclaimed softly.

The young man opposite him, who was also no more than twenty years old, looked displeased, snatched the wine glass from his hand, and poured himself a glass: "Ah Zhan, you are too uninteresting, just pour wine for the second uncle, you don't know how to pour it for me." ”

"You don't have long hands yourself!" Ah Zhan asked rhetorically.

"You..."

"Okay, Ah Zhan, Ah Zhao, you two don't quarrel, eat well." The second uncle saw that the two boys were about to quarrel, so he hurriedly stopped him. Then he drank all the wine in the wine glass, smacked his lips, and said, "This wine is really good." ”

The third uncle poured another glass for himself, and said proudly: "Of course, this is a secret wine from Jiangdong, and only those high-ranking officials and nobles can afford to drink it before." I'm in a treat today, second brother, you can drink as much as you like. ”

"Whatever you want?" The second uncle looked at the proud third uncle in surprise: "Third uncle, you didn't steal any master's money!" Now the street is so strict, be careful of being caught by those Qiu Ba and punished for a capital crime. ”

The third uncle looked at the second uncle with an angry face and said, "Second brother, who do you think of me?" I sit upright, when did I do those things like stealing chickens and touching dogs? I earned all this money. ”

The second uncle frowned when he heard this: "If there is a big flood this year, aren't your acres of land flooded?" I can't afford to pay the rent, where will I get the money? ”

"I earned it by helping the government build a house!" The third uncle patted his chest and raised his head.
