Next, Xu Ding talked to Lu Su about other things, and the two chatted very openly.

The initial trust and goodwill were built.

At the end of the conversation, Xu Ding directly turned to the topic and said: "Zijing, talents like you are indispensable to me, I hope you can go to Donglai, Weiyuan, Pingzhou to develop, I hope to use your talent to benefit more Han people." ”

This is an invitation, the most direct and straightforward.

Although Lu Su intended to move, he thought about it and finally refused: "Junhou, you are a rare hero, unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, invincible in civil and military affairs, I believe that you can only be the last one who can save the Han, but please see the cool of the Junhou, I can't follow you now." ”

Xu Ding was still full of expectations at first, a little happy, but he didn't expect Lu Su to refuse, so he asked curiously:

"Zijing, what does this mean?"

Lu Su said: "Jun Hou, as the saying goes, the closest relatives are here, not far away, Su lost his parents at a young age, and was brought up by his grandmother alone, and his filial piety has not yet been completed, how can he be loyal." ”

"This ......" Xu Ding didn't expect Lu Su to reply to him like this, this era is extremely filial piety, and officials have a chance to be elected only if they emphasize filial piety.

I have to say that there are good things in each era, Xu Ding saw that Lu Su said so earnestly and seriously, thought about it and said: "Okay, Zijing has this filial piety, I should fulfill it, I just hope that one day Jing will be the first to think of me." ”

"Thank you so much, Prince." Lu Su attended respectfully towards Xu Ding, and it was a long one.

It's just that he hasn't finished this ceremony yet, when he saw an old lady rushing in from outside the door, carrying a cane and hitting Lu Su's body.

Xu Ding and the others were stunned, and Lu Su was even more caught off guard.

"Stupid, I'm confused, how can you refuse the invitation of the Hou Ye, how can you miss the opportunity for me, the old woman, and lose the master, you are confused......"

"Grandmother, don't fight, Su'er can not be famous, but I really can't do without you!" Lu Su turned around and looked at the old lady, did not dodge, and replied sincerely.

Xu Ding was also busy attending and came over to help and persuade: "Don't worry, boss! Don't worry, Zijing didn't say he didn't want to, but he needed some time and wanted to accompany you more. ”

"That's right, grandmother! I'm just a little reluctant to let you be at home alone, Su'er is still young, there is time, and you are old, I can accompany you for not too much time, please let Su'er do more filial piety. Lu Su explained.

The old lady dissipated her anger, put away the crutches, coughed, and then said to Xu Ding: "For the sake of the Hou Ye, I tolerate and believe what you said, I have nothing to take care of by the old woman, and there is no shortage of food or clothing at home, let alone people, you can rest assured to follow the Hou Ye, and rest assured to go on a rampage."

When you have a little fame, occupy an important position, and make great contributions, you will be the glory of the Lu family, even if I die, I will have the face to see your grandfather and your parents who went early. ”

"I ......" Lu Su was also a little entangled, and couldn't help but sigh heavily.

Which man doesn't want to be out of the crowd, doesn't want to make a career and achieve his own legend.

Xu Ding saw Lu Su's concerns and the disagreement between him and his grandmother.

Then he said: "Zijing, if not, you can also take the boss to Weiyuan Island, and even the Lu family can take it over, the environment on my island is more beautiful and stable, there is Ziyi's mother, Yunchang's parents, and other civil and military families, and the boss will not be lonely if he goes."

By the way, the head of the Bu family has just gone to the island for treatment, and I have the best medical and surgical miracle doctor in the world, and there is a good treatment environment, and the old man can get the best care of his body when he goes there. ”

Lu Su was a little moved, looked at the old lady, the old lady showed a kind smile on her face, and nodded at Xu Ding: "It's still the Hou Ye who thinks thoughtfully, but I heard that your Weiyuan Island is a fairy island, I never thought that I, the old woman, would also have the opportunity to step on the island to live, according to the old man's words, this is the best." ”

Since his grandmother had said so, Lu Su had no choice but to reply: "In this case, it is all up to grandmother to decide." ”

The old man was satisfied, and then turned to leave, Lu Su sent her back to the backyard, returned after a short time, and then said to Xu Ding: "Lord, please allow me to arrange this side of Dongcheng County, and I am going to Weiyuan Island." ”

There are still a lot of fields in Dongcheng, and there is still a lot of grain in the granary of his Lu family, since he is leaving, it is better to give it all to the neighbors.

Xu Dingdao: "Zijing, don't worry, I still have important things to go to Lujiang and Anhui County, and I want to go to Shucheng Lu Taishou by the way, and when I return to the north, I will go with you." ”

Lu Su bowed slightly, and said after the banquet: "Lord, you go to Lu Taishou there, but you have to make an alliance with him and help each other." ”

Lu Su knew that Lu Kang was a virtuous person in Lujiang County, and he did quite well, and now that Sun Jian had taken Yuzhang, the next step might be to swallow Lujiang County.

Therefore, there will be a war in Lujiang County next, and it will not be peaceful, especially the ultimate goal of Xu Ding is Anhui County, western Anhui is the bridgehead, the southwest gate of Lujiang, and the location is extremely important.

The land of Yangzhou is the key channel for Xuding to purchase grain and materials, and the stability of Yangzhou is extremely important to Xuding.

It's like a stable Xuzhou.

Xu Ding shook his head and said, "Definitely! I went to Lu Taishou because I heard that there are many talented people in his family, and I want to find out one or two, and it would be a blessing if I could choose one or two. ”

It's going to look for talent again.

Xu Ding is really a person who cherishes talents and loves talents, and he collects wherever he goes, and it makes sense to be really successful.

After a one-night delay here in Lusu, the next day, Xu Ding and the others continued to set off for Lujiang County.

Before leaving, Lu Su sent Xu Ding and others out of the city, and reminded: "My lord, you have to pass through Junxuan, Hefei and other cities, you need to be very careful, there are Zheng Bao, Zhang Duo, Xu Qian and other powerful bandits entrenched in five counties, two rivers and one lake, and the three of them are quite powerful, and there are many mercenaries, so you can't be careless." ”

Yangzhou is the strongest and most powerful state of all the states and counties, large and small, almost every county, every city, or every mountain is entrenched in a force, and the relationship between them is intertwined, and they are both hostile and mutually beneficial.

Therefore, it makes sense why Dongcheng County has not weak armed forces.

Because this place is often threatened by Zheng Bao, Zhang Duo, Xu Qian and others.

With Lu Su's reminder, Xu Ding and the others should be vigilant to move forward, try to take the avenue, and never enter the trail or night road.

Chaohu!

At this time, an elegant scribe was extrapolating the time.

Soon, a general with a knife walked in from outside, clenched his fists and lowered his voice: "Military Division, Xu Ding has set off from Dongcheng County, and he will be able to reach our jurisdiction tomorrow." ”

The scribe smiled slightly: "The Grand Commander has received the news, what are you going to do?" Do you know Xu Ding's identity? ”

"Rest assured, we only mentioned that they were Lu Su's relatives and friends, and did not explain the identity of the promise to the commander, the commander was eager to take revenge and wanted to take down these people so that he could blackmail Lu Su, so he began to gather men and horses to prepare for an ambush." The person who came reported truthfully.

A glimmer of light flashed in the scribe's eyes, and he nodded and said: "That's fine, as long as this thing is done, you will be the master of this Chaohu Lake in the future, and I will recommend you to the envoy, as long as you do it well, the position of Jiujiang Taishou is also within reach." ”

The person who came was overjoyed, and replied with a fist: "Thank you for your support, the villain will definitely go all out, and his liver and brain will be ruined." ”

Then the scribe waved his hand, and the man exited the room, looked around, saw that no one had noticed, and quickly left.

The scribe didn't move, just closed his eyes and muttered to himself: "You shouldn't take the jade seal of the country, you shouldn't leak it out, you shouldn't leave the jurisdiction if you leak it, and you shouldn't be so arrogant when you leave Yangzhou ......
