Liu Xun spoke, and the four staff members didn't dare to say more.

At this moment, everyone chose to stand in line, and no one wanted to cause too much trouble for themselves.

Knowing that there was no result, Liu Xun waved his hand: "You all retreat." ”

The people got up and took their leave.

When they left, they glared at each other resentfully, and several people already had a mustard in their hearts.

Liu Xun knew that Cao Cao's arrival scared the courage of many people.

At least three of the four staff members present just now were inclined to defect to Cao Cao, but two of them did not say anything.

When he left the study, Liu Xun was very depressed.

Shouchun City's high pond was still deep and could not resist Lu Bu's attack.

Lü Bu was besieged by Cao Cao in Xiapi at the beginning, and if it hadn't been for the last moment to turn things around, he would probably have been killed.

The Huainan army couldn't even resist Lu Bu, so how could Lujiang resist Cao Cao?

Full of thoughts, Liu Xun didn't even know how to return to the bedroom.

Liu Xun's wife saw that he was depressed, so she came up and asked, "My husband is depressed, is there anything to worry about?" I wonder if the concubine can share some of it? ”

"What can a mere woman share?" Liu Xun sighed: "Cao Cao led his troops to camp in Yijing, and he may come to Hefei at any time. I'm thinking, Shouchun has many soldiers and horses and can't resist Lu Bu. How can Lujiang compete with Cao Cao? ”

"Does the husband plan to live and die with Lujiang?" Madame's eyes turned red for a moment: "If the husband has three longs and two shorts, how can he live with the concubines and the children?" ”

Mrs. cried, which made Liu Xun even more upset: "The women's Taoist family knows how to cry and cry all day long, what is it like?" ”

Liu Xun's reprimand did not prompt his wife to stop crying.

She sobbed and said, "The concubine just doesn't understand, the husband can obviously live, but I don't know why I have to choose a dead end!" ”

was in an irritable mood, but Mrs. woke up Liu Xun with a word.

He looked at his wife in astonishment: "Do you think I still have a way to live?" ”

"It is said that Cao Mengde has the capacity to tolerate people, as long as his husband is willing to serve, he will definitely not do harm." Madame said: "Looking at the general trend of the world, the Cao family has been in full swing recently, and even Lu Bu is not their opponent. Why should the husband be his enemy? ”

Liu Xun didn't say anything, but what his wife said made him unmoved.

Judging from the current situation, serving Cao Cao is indeed his only way out.

His mind was already a little moved, Liu Xun was frowning and weighing what to choose, when a maid came in outside: "General, there are people outside the gate who ask to see you." ”

"Who?" was thinking about what to do, Liu Xun asked absentmindedly.

"It's a merchant, and he says he's coming from the north." The maid replied.

"What can I see from a mere businessman?" Liu Xun waved his hand angrily: "Send him away, let him go quickly!" ”

The maid did not retreat immediately, but said: "This person said that he has a way to relieve the general of the Lujiang River." ”

was worried about this matter, and someone actually came to visit and said that he could help relieve the difficulty of Lujiang, Liu Xun paused and instructed the maid: "Invite him to the front hall." ”

It was Jia Xu who met Liu Xun.

He dressed as a merchant and came to the front hall.

Liu Xun has already arrived.

Although Jia Xu is famous, Liu Xun has never seen him, and from his demeanor and bearing, it can be seen that this person is definitely not an ordinary businessman.

Looking at Jia Xu, Liu Xun asked, "Who are you?" ”

"I'm just a businessman, why does the general ask that?" Jia Xu smiled indifferently.

"I don't think you look like a merchant at all." Liu Xun stared at Jia Xu's face: "You have a very heavy killing aura on your body. ”

"In troubled times, in order to survive, who can not kill people?" Jia Xu responded very plainly: "If I don't kill people, I will be killed by others one day." ”

"When you come here, aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" Liu Xun's tone was even colder than just now.

"The general won't kill me." Jia Xu replied confidently.

Liu Xun was suddenly puzzled: "Why do you say that I won't kill you?" ”

"Kill me, and the general will be cut off from life." Jia Xu said: "Is the general willing to die with me?" ”

"What do you mean?" Liu Xun frowned.

"I couldn't have understood what I meant." Jia Xu smiled: "The general should understand that judging from the current situation, if you don't find a way as soon as possible, once the Cao family's army comes to the city, the general and the Lujiang army will definitely be killed by the chaotic army." There are only two ways to survive in front of the general, one is to repel the Cao family to keep the Lujiang River, and the other is to serve the Cao family in order to obtain the capital to settle down. ”

The head of Jia Xu's analysis is Dao, and every sentence he says is indeed bothering Liu Xun.

Liu Xun's eyes lit up, and he suddenly changed his tone: "Does Mr. have a way to break the enemy?" ”

"Defeat the Cao family?" Jia Xu asked.

"Exactly." Liu Xun replied: "Mr. also said that the only way to survive in front of me is to break the Cao family......"

"I'm talking about two methods, but when it comes to the general's mouth, how did it become one?" Jia Xu asked: "Could it be that the general really plans to take the Lujiang River to die together?" ”

"What do you mean......" Hearing something from Jia Xu's words, Liu Xun's face was much uglier than just now.

"I should know what I mean." Jia Xu said: "The Yuan family in Huainan has declined, Yuan Shu is dead, and whether Yuan Yao's ability can revive Huainan is presumably very clear to the generals." ”

"Your Majesty may be young, but he will always have an adult." Liu Xun said: "The first emperor treated me well, is it possible that I want to turn my back on his descendants?" ”

"The First Emperor? Your Majesty? Jia Xu asked with a smile: "The first emperor that the general said was the Ling Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the thief Yuan Highway?" The said majesty is the emperor who is now in Xudu, or Yuan Yao who is in Hefei? ”

"What do you mean?" When Jia Xu asked, Liu Xun's face suddenly became a little ugly.

"There cannot be no king in the world for a day, but there can only be one emperor." Jia Xu replied: "The Han is still there, who dares to be the emperor in the whole world?" Let's ask the general, Yuan Shu is the emperor, how many people agree and how many people agree? ”

Liu Xun was speechless when asked by Jia Xu, and he didn't know how to answer.

Jia Xu continued: "The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." Yuan Highway was favored by the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and he did not want to be grateful, but he rashly claimed the emperor, which can be described as a traitor. I have heard of the general's loyalty, is it possible to be a traitor and rebel with him? ”

After all, Liu Xun has followed Yuan Shu for many years, and Jia Xu said in front of him that Yuan Shu was a traitor and a rebel, and his face suddenly became very ugly: "Mr. said so, aren't you afraid that I will kill you before Lujiang is broken?" ”

"The general may think that killing me will show his loyalty." Jia Xu said: "But you didn't expect who is Zhongyi? For the sake of a traitor and the enemy of the world, how many people dare to ask the general's loyalty and righteousness? What is loyalty that is not recognized? ”
