Chapter 42: I see

"You mean, someone said a year ago that Sun Ce was the master?"

After listening to Chen Wu's narration, Yuan Yao couldn't help but confirm again.

Chen Wu recalled: "It's been almost two years. ”

“……”

Yuan Yao was shocked by the news and was a little speechless.

"Lord, this is someone building momentum for the Sun family again, and this Lu Su must be involved." Liu Ye said to Yuan Yao seriously.

Lu Su and Sun Ce had already colluded with each other, and Yuan Yao had already guessed it, but he didn't know what he had done, and now he finally heard that someone could clear the fog.

"What is the momentum, Ziyang, you say it in detail. Zishan, you don't have to worry, looking at Lu Su, I have already handed over this task to him, and I believe that he will not let me down. ”

"No, my subordinates understand." After Liu Ye responded, he began to explain in detail, "The so-called momentum is a means for families or celebrities to manipulate public opinion in order to achieve a certain goal and shape the situation. It is usually the case that something is justified at the beginning. For example, in order to prove that Sun Ce was the master, a few eloquent people discussed some unassailable arguments in advance, and then visited famous individuals or families to begin to elaborate their arguments. Because of the preparation in advance, most people can successfully convince each other. Moreover, these people who are selected to visit are themselves people of a certain reputation, and there will definitely be many people who will visit them, or they will also visit others, so these prepared statements will be disseminated, and slowly a stream of public opinion will be formed to control the form. Just like Zilie's Chen family, they didn't participate in it, but they were also misled by this public opinion, which is one of the roles of the momentum. ”

Ziyang means that two years ago, there were a bunch of people who had plans and preparations for Sun Ce...... Got momentum? All of this is man-made and planned? And it was planned two years ago? Yuan Yao asked in disbelief.

Liu Ye nodded and explained with a wry smile: "It can be understood in this way. However, the subordinates do not know what the ultimate goal of the plotters behind it is, so it is impossible to judge what the specific plan is, but it is certain that the momentum is only the beginning of the plan, and there must be more important actions hidden later, because the means of building momentum is usually the first step of a big plan. ”

"And the plan, are you sure?" Yuan Yao was startled and said.

"The subordinates are sure, but unfortunately, it is not possible to know what the ultimate purpose behind it is. However, his subordinates guessed that Lu Su must know, so he chose to run away at this time, if he can be caught, he can find out the answer, or ......" Liu Ye paused, hesitated and continued, "Or immediately arrest Sun Ce and interrogate him strictly, now it can almost be concluded that Sun Ce's heart can be punished." ”

"Almost certainly?" Yuan Yao repeated Liu Ye's words and expressed doubts.

Liu Ye nodded and said: "Yes, Zilie's confession alone can't convict Sun Ce, he can find a lot of excuses to clear his name, for example, it was just a spontaneous public opinion among the people, or someone maliciously separated the relationship between the Yuan family and the Sun family, etc., because we can't prove that someone is deliberately building momentum, unless Lu Su is caught and gets his confession or there can be key evidence." However, there is no excuse for the crime that you want to add, as long as you win Sun Ce, how to convict is not up to the lord! ”

"Nonsense!" Yuan Yao was stunned when he heard this, and said unhappily, "What is the crime of wanting to add to it, where does this kind of disregard for the law put people's hearts?" In order to avoid a trouble, we lose people's hearts, isn't it because of a small loss, and it doesn't matter how important it is? Don't talk nonsense in the future. ”

"No, my subordinates know their mistakes." Liu Ye hurriedly saluted and bowed his head to admit his mistake, but secretly showed a relaxed smile on his mouth.

"Hey, Ziyang, your tone is wrong!" Yuan Yao suddenly reacted and said, "Listening to your tone, it seems that you are talking the opposite!" Are you testing whether I will engage in favoritism and ignore the laws of people's hearts? ”

"This ......," Liu Ye said awkwardly, "the subordinates are clever and let the lord see the joke." ”

Unexpectedly, Liu Ye opened his mouth to admit it, Yuan Yao helped him up with a smile and said: "You strategists, you come to a temptation or something at every turn to show that you are smart, you are stupid to me?" ”

Seeing that Liu Ye was already embarrassed and at a loss, Yuan Yao stopped teasing him, and his expression began to return to seriousness: "What does Ziyang mean, does he support me in dealing with Sun Ce?" ”

Liu Ye got rid of his embarrassment and nodded cautiously: "At this time, if you want to deal with Sun Ce, you really need to be cautious, otherwise it will be unfavorable to the lord's established strategy." First, because of insufficient evidence, Sun Ce could not be nailed, and the Sun family was a Jiangdong family, so if he was not careful, he would miss the hearts of the Jiangdong people; The second is that there is a shortage of generals under the lord's account, especially the lack of generals who can fight in water, and even there are no good water fighters under the account of General Zuo. Therefore, his subordinates suggested that before he figured out what Sun Ce's intentions were, he should not startle the snake for the time being, since he has not made any changes so far, there should be no trouble in the short term, but in order to avoid accidents, the lord still needs to pay more attention. ”

Yuan Yao nodded in approval after listening to Liu Ye's analysis: "Don't worry, I am measured and will not be impulsive." Now that Lu Su has become the key, then you immediately go back to the city to explain to Zishan the situation that Lie has mastered, and then assist him in the search. As for Sun Ce's side, as you just said, don't startle the snake until you find Lu Su. I will go back to the county guard office to wait for your good news, and if you need help, go to the county guard office to find me. ”

"Subordinates receive orders." Liu Ye arched his hand, then ran to the horse and jumped up, and ran towards Shu County with a loud shout.

Seeing Liu Ye leaving, Yuan Yaocai turned back to Chen Wu and said: "Don't procrastinate in doing things in the future, if you think something is important, do it immediately, ask if you don't understand, don't be smart." You have the credit for providing important information this time, but you also have the sin of not reporting it. If the merits and demerits are offset, there will be no reward or punishment for you. But you have to know that this time you had the opportunity to make a great contribution, but because of caution and mistaken a big thing, but it is understandable that you have just done something unclear, so pay attention next time. ”

Hearing this, Chen Wu hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you for the grace of the lord." ”

"Get up, follow me back to the county guard's mansion, maybe I will be busy at night." Yuan Yao helped Chen Wu up, patted the dust on his knees, and said.

"No." Chen Wu didn't dare to move nervously, until Yuan Yao turned around and rode towards the seat.

When Yuan Yao returned to Shuxian County, he thought it would be a series of arrests, but it turned out to be quiet and silent, as if nothing had happened, but it was indeed different from before, there were no pedestrians on the street.

Yuan Yao was curious, but he didn't ask anyone to ask anything, but returned to the lobby of the county guard mansion as promised to wait for news.

At this time, thirty miles away from Shu County, two figures were taking advantage of the rugged terrain to move forward cautiously. Even though the sun was setting at this time, it was dim and uncertain, but the two were still cautious and did not dare to make too obvious movements.

If Yuan Yao is here at this time, he will find that one of them is Lu Su and Lu Zijing. It's just that no one can imagine that Lu Su, who had just escaped in the city, not only managed to escape from the city within an hour, but also ran so far away.

At this time, Lu Su's elegant robe was gone, but a short dress like a farmer, but it was very suitable for running.
