After discussing the business of Wu County with Xiao Gu and Wang Fu, they each acted separately.

Sun Yang did not hesitate, and asked Xi Zhicai to start contacting Yuan Shu's envoy who stayed in Wu County, ready to talk to Yuan Shu about the jade seal again, but this time Sun Yang's conditions were about to change greatly; Xiao Gu did not go down to Jiangdong to inspect the business situation first, but began to set up a department in charge of commercial affairs with Sun Yang's order, after all, sharpening knives is not a mistake to chop wood, and he is also easy to do things if he sets up the department first; As for Wang Fu, in order to express Sun Yang's sincerity, he personally rushed to Xuzhou to meet Mi Zhu, hoping to get good results.

After dealing with the business, Sun Yang felt like a perpetual motion machine that couldn't be stopped, and there were still many things waiting for him, but the most important thing now was that Li Ru and the others who came from Chang'an arrived!

It is impossible for Sun Yang not to attach importance to Li Ru's arrival, because his trip is not only the identity of a messenger to send relatives, but more importantly, he is also the proclaimer appointed by the Han Emperor and the negotiator sent by Dong Zhuo! Sun Yang knew very well that Li Ru must have something to talk to him about when he came to Jiangdong, otherwise with the importance of Li Ru by Dong Zhuo's side, Dong Zhuo would not let him come!

Just like welcoming Xun Yu at the beginning, Sun Yang also greeted Li Ru and others at the city gate, and after greeting each other for a while, Dong Zhuo's daughter and the team sent by the Han Emperor were arranged by Sun Yang to go to the post station, and Li Ru's entourage was invited to the Taishou Mansion of Wu County, because Li Ru wanted to read the holy decree of the Han Emperor first.

"Wu Hou Sun Yang listens to orders!" Li Ru opened the holy decree of Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty.

Sun Yang knelt down on one knee, even if he only knelt on one knee, but Sun Yang was extremely unhappy in his heart, but there was no way, although the world was now a chaotic situation, but the majesty of the Han family was still there, and Sun Yang could only pretend to be a loyal minister.

"On the seventh day of the fourth month of the year of Xinwei, the emperor said: Sun Jian, the former Marquis of Wu, unfortunately passed away, and the second son Yang was naturally intelligent, so that he succeeded to the position of Marquis of Wu......" Li Ruyang read a lot, but the most useful information was to announce Sun Yang as the legitimate heir of Marquis Wu.

After Li Ru finished reading, Sun Yang also thanked the emperor for his will.

"Hehe, Wu Hou, please get up." After handing over the emperor's decree to Sun Yang's hands, Li Ru helped Sun Yang up with a smile, but Sun Yang only felt that Li Ru's smile was very ugly, after all, although Li Ru's appearance was not ugly, but the narrow eagle eyes and hooked nose looked like that kind of fierce person, and the insidious taste of laughing was even more obvious.

"Hehe, thank you for giving birth to Wen." Although Sun Yang's impression of Li Ru is not good, and even a little disgusted, this does not become a reason for Sun Yang to despise Li Ru, after all, Li Ru's ability is there, if it is not for Li Ru's advice, I am afraid that Dong Zhuo is still nesting in that place in Liangzhou now, instead of becoming the prime minister of the Han Dynasty now!

"It's better to be famous than to see it, Wu Hou is really a young hero, and he admires him!" Li Ru also hugged his fists and smiled, after finishing the business, his expression was also relaxed, in fact, Li Ru admired Sun Yang very much, not only because of the previous Tiger Prison War, but also because of the Luoyang catastrophe a few years ago and the current crisis to stabilize Jiangdong.

"Wen Xiansheng laughed, Wen Xiansheng's talent is known to everyone in the world, and Yang has long wanted to get to know Mr.!" Who wouldn't say good and obedient, since Li Ru said flattering words, Sun Yang also paid homage to him, but Sun Yang's words were not exaggerated, whether the name Li Ru was hated or appreciated, I am afraid that it would have long been famous among the princes of the world.

"Wu Hou, your words are very confucian!" The smile on Li Ru's face became even brighter, a strategist like them, in addition to making a career, I'm afraid the most important thing is fame, Sun Yang's words can be regarded as speaking in Li Ru's heart!

But even so, Li Ru didn't show any arrogance, he still behaved very humble, which made Sun Yang look at Li Rugao again, he knew that this Li Ru should be more powerful than the legend, if it weren't for Dong Zhuo's arrogance behind him, ignoring Li Ru's advice, maybe he would really be surnamed Dong in this world!

"Hehe, Wen Xiansheng, today you and I hit it off at first sight, Yang has prepared good wine and tea, why don't you ask Mr. to move and have a drink with Yang?" Since he was dealing with Li Ru, Sun Yang also learned about some of Li Ru's habits, and when he drank, he would also drink tea, so Sun Yang also prepared these two things in advance.

"There's Lao Wuhou!" Li Ru had no reason to refuse Sun Yang's proposal, after all, he came this time with the intention of having a good relationship with Sun Yang, and he was also happy to see that he could contact Sun Yang alone.

"Wen Xian, please!" As soon as Sun Yang raised his hand, he led the way for Li Ru......

Soon Sun Yang and Li Ru arrived in the study room that Sun Yang usually used, but there was already fine wine, some food, and of course, good tea!

"Wen Xiansheng, come, I salute you!" After Li Ru took his seat, Sun Yang took the lead in raising the wine glass in his hand and saluted Li Ru.

"Wu Hou, please!" Of course, Li Ru also raised his wine glass.

……

After three rounds of drinking, Sun Yang put down the wine glass, smiled at Li Ru, and said: "Wen Xiansheng, Yang has a question, I wonder if Mr. can solve Yang's doubts?" ”

Li Ru was obviously a little surprised by Sun Yang's sudden change in words, but he quickly reacted, and also smiled: "I don't know if Wu Hou has any questions?" ”

"Wen Xiansheng's status next to the prime minister, everyone in the world knows everything, Yang wants to ask, I don't know why you personally led the team this time? The prime minister is not afraid, will you have any accidents? After all, Wen Xiansheng is a thorn in the eye of many people, a nail in the flesh! Sun Yang said with a smile, he wanted to see how Li Ru would deal with it?

Hearing Sun Yang's suspiciously threatening words, Li Ru didn't panic, just lowered his head and groaned for a while before smiling and said to Sun Yang: "Wu Hou said that he laughed, Confucianism is just an ordinary strategist under the Prime Minister, even if Confucianism leaves, the Prime Minister will not have any accidents, as for the danger you said, you haven't encountered it yet, what's so terrible?" ”

"Oh? Wen Xian, are you so confident? Sun Yang's smile did not decrease, but there was a faint threat in his words, he did this, naturally he would not want to turn his face with Li Ru, the purpose was just to find out more news from Li Ru's mouth, so as to have some upper hand in the subsequent negotiations.

"Hehe, Wu Hou, Confucianism is not self-confidence, but self-knowledge, I'm afraid Confucian's little life is not worth someone to take it with great fanfare!" Li Ru hugged his fists and calmly responded to Sun Yang's aggressive words.

"Old fox!" Sun Yang sighed in his heart, sure enough, this Li Ru is not easy to deal with, these words are even more slippery than loaches! However, Sun Yang naturally wouldn't give up like this, and asked again: "Wen Xiansheng, you haven't answered Yang yet, why did you come to Jiangdong in person?" ”
