The minister is worried about the king, this is the practice of smart people, you must know that the monarch does not need to do things himself, and many words do not need to be said on the surface, and a qualified courtier must learn to figure out the intentions, everything the monarch can do by himself, what is the use of the courtiers?

It can also be seen from this that it is not unreasonable for Shang Yang to be reused, although he has joined the Chiyou Group for a relatively short time, but it is in such a short time that he can be reused by Chiyou, which is enough to show his superiority, and he can also fully correct his position, know when he should remind, when to oppose, and be stronger than many people in figuring out his intentions, it is because of this that Chiyou's intention to withdraw from the army was the first to know with him, and the purpose is very clear. This is the meaning that cannot be put forward by Chi You, but needs to be said through the mouth of the merchant sheep.

Although he understood what the king meant, but this matter is not very easy to do, others are good to say, the nine brothers of Chiyou are not easy to persuade, each is a patriarch, strong, and also won the trust of Chiyou, in the entire Eastern Regions is the existence of a hegemon, if they all object, then this matter is Chiyou himself said, may fail, so he must be prepared in advance, it is best to persuade one or two in advance, thinking of this, Shang Yang retreated, and Er Chiyou can also rest assured to hand it over to him, Shang Yang is so smart, I believe that this matter can be handled well, don't worry about him, all he wants is that it is okay to retreat, but it is not cute to cheapen the other two countries, and fly to cause them some trouble.

Let's talk about Shang Yang, after retreating, he went directly to the camp of the second patriarch Li Ju, the second patriarch Li Ju, is the biggest brother of Chi You, the two are almost the same, but the personality is completely different, Li Ju has a calm personality, thoughtful, and loyal to his brother, although the ability is not the strongest, but it is deeply supported by the brothers, and is also in charge of the clan children of the entire Jiuli tribe, it can be said that Shang Yang is the first choice to win over, as long as he nods, the other brothers will succeed for the most part, and Li Ju is not stupid, as long as he explains his intentions, then he must not be difficult to convince.

At this time, Li Ju was resting in the camp, and heard that his soldiers came to report, the chief strategist Shang Yang asked to see, shouting surprise, it stands to reason that the two usually have nothing to do with each other, after all, he is in charge of the clan, and he generally does not ask about other things, and Shang Yang is not his own clan, so he is not in his own hands, usually he is a nodding friend, but he is working for his brother Chi You, so he is not an outsider, although he is a little puzzled in his heart, but he still maintains his due demeanor, and personally walks to the door of the tent to greet him, Shang Yang repeatedly said that he does not dare, Keep your posture to the lowest.

This is also another outstanding place of Shang Yang, that is, it is low-key enough, it stands to reason that Chi You attaches so much importance to him, he can be more high-profile, after all, he has this capital, but he doesn't, he is very kind to everyone in Jiuli Ministry, and he doesn't fight with others, he has a master's demeanor, so that every child of Jiuli knows that Mr. Shang Yang is a very good person, not arrogant or impatient, so many people are willing to associate with him, even if some children do something wrong and annoy Chi Youjun, they will think of him for the first time, begging him to intercede with Chiyou, basically every time he can help, he can help, and he has received a lot of people's favor, and only by respecting others can he gain respect, which is his consistent style of acting, and it is also the reason why he can thrive in Jiulibu.

Mu Xiu in the forest, the wind will destroy it, especially in such a special camp as the Jiuli tribe, the difference between the Jiuli tribe and the other two countries in the Central Plains is that the Jiuli tribe has nine masters, the nine brothers have lost their parents since they were young, and they all climbed up from the bottom, and they can have today's status is completely the result of the concerted efforts of the nine people, you can imagine how deep the feelings between them should be, if the merchant sheep only stammers Chi You alone, and treats the other eight people differently, they can't live now, No matter how much he gets Chiyou's trust, it is impossible to compare to brotherhood, and most of the children of the clan are their sons and nephews, although some are not successful, but such a family force, no one can be offended, who knows who is behind it?

Therefore, Shang Yang's current status depends on Chi You's trust, and it also depends on the rich connections of the entire Jiuli tribe, which is very stable and easy to shake, and his strength lies in the subtle infiltration, this method of moisturizing things silently will not arouse Chi You's vigilance, Shang Yang can be said to be the person with the highest status in addition to the nine patriarchs in the Jiuli tribe.

This is also the reason why Li Ju personally greeted him, the two entered the tent, retreated left and right, and were a little polite, and sat down as the guest of honor, and Li Ju spoke first.

"Mr. Shang Yang is here today, I don't know what you are doing?"

"The second patriarch of Li Ju doesn't have to be polite, don't dare to take the word sir, just call me Shangyang."

"I have nothing to do today, I came to see the second patriarch of Li Ju, I don't know how many days are good?"

Just came to visit, Li Juwan didn't believe it, but since the other party cared about him, he didn't want to say it, and he was polite again, but he was a little bad at words, so he could only look at Shang Yang with some expectation.

"Patriarch Li Juer, then I'll get straight to the point."

Li Ju nodded noncommittally and motioned for Shang Yang to continue.

"Hehe, I don't know what the second patriarch of Li Ju thinks about the war so far?"

"This... I don't know what Mr. means, but please explain. ”

"Okay, then I'll make it clear, the war has been fought so far, hasn't the second patriarch of Li Ju thought about the consequences of going on like this, or what should we do next, we can't continue like this, you must know that we have been stationed here for a few months, and the supply of the entire Jiuli tribe is going to have a big problem?"

"Indeed, this is also what I am worried about, I don't know what solution Mr. has."

Originally, the affairs of the army had nothing to do with Li Ju, and he didn't understand any of them, so he couldn't understand why Shang Yang asked him for the time being, but out of concern for the tribe, he couldn't help but ask Shang Yang if there was any good way.

"The second patriarch of Li Ju didn't think about stopping here and retreating to the Eastern Regions?"

"Withdraw to the Eastern Regions? How can it be? ”

Li Juteng stood up, he didn't expect Shang Yang to have such an idea, he was a little anxious for a while, and looked at him with a slight skepticism, but Shang Yang did not shy away from looking at him, with a slight smile on his face, which made Li Ju calm down.

If another person told him this, he would immediately think that this person was a spy sent by the other two countries to disturb the morale of the army, and he would not hesitate to cut off the other party's head, but if it was Shang Yang, he would have to think about it calmly, it stands to reason that Shang Yang would not put forward this suggestion that might be regarded as a traitor, he is so smart, unless his head is not good, he seems to be very sober now.

And his loyalty is undoubted, otherwise it will be unanimously recognized by the Jiuli tribe, so there must be a reason for him to put forward this view, what is the reason? Could it be that it is for the Jiuli tribe, worried about the lack of food and grass, and worried that the war will be bad for their own side? It doesn't seem to be sufficient.

At this time, after calm thinking, Li Ju's mood has stabilized a little, he still believes in Shang Yang very much, Shang Yang doesn't talk, let him continue to think about it, he believes that Li Ju is not a stupid person, he will definitely figure it out by himself, needless to say, they are all smart people, everyone clicks to the end.

Li Ju looked at Shang Yang again, and saw that the other party was still looking at him with a smile, but he didn't explain, which made him a little anxious, which is not like Shang Yang's character, he usually looks kind, so that everyone ignores his resourcefulness, and now it seems that he is really at a certain level, he can only force himself to calm down, and start thinking about the whole incident from beginning to end.

First of all, Shang Yang's coming today must have been planned in advance, and the purpose of looking for himself was to tell himself that he wanted to withdraw his troops, so what was the purpose of telling himself? Is it to let yourself persuade the patriarch? It's unlikely, the eldest brother knows that he is not good at military affairs, so it is better for him to persuade himself? Suddenly something came to him, was it?

By the way, it must be the meaning of the eldest brother, he wants to withdraw from the army, and then let Shang Yang come to find him, revealing this meaning, it must be like this, Li Ju suddenly became a little enlightened, so it is so, inform himself, and then let himself go to inform the other brothers, Li Ju, who figured out what happened, was relaxed for a while, as long as it was the meaning of the eldest brother, he would definitely comply unconditionally, where could he use such a beating around the bush, it was really troublesome, however, he also apologized for his uncalm just now, Mr. has always been thinking about the tribe, I still suspect the other party's intentions, which really shouldn't be.

From Li Ju's expression, Shang Yang has already seen that the other party has figured it out, and the meaning of the patriarch has been conveyed in place, I believe that Li Ju also understands the meaning of the patriarch, so his task will be caused, and he will leave with a farewell and continue to find another brother of Chi You, because he must be cautious about this matter, and he must do it beautifully, in case there is a fork, the patriarch is not easy to explain, maybe it is also a character of his pursuit of perfection.

The second person he found was Chi You's other younger brother, the four patriarch Li Wen, the reason why it was him, not the three patriarchs, was because Li Wen was the smartest among the nine brothers, and some of his strategies were no less than his own, the reason why the nine Chi You brothers were able to dominate the Eastern Regions was inseparable from the advice of the four patriarchs, and the method of dividing the alliance in the Eastern Regions was from this person, and even Shang Yang couldn't think of a way, so you can imagine how powerful this person is.

And Shang Yang also likes to deal with him, maybe it's because of smart people, it's very simple to speak, sometimes you just need to go to visit, the other party may know your intention, and that's true, Shang Yang hasn't said a word, Li Wen has already guessed his intention.
