"How can a certain virtue be able to let Zijing treat me like a countryman?"

Hearing that Lu Su said that he was willing to become his own merchant and bear all the charges and revenge for changing the law, Yuan Yao was moved, and finally asked a sentence that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.

Since the last time Yuan Yao faked his death and Sun Ce took the opportunity to seize power, Lu Su had preferred to die and swore to protect Yuan Yao's "deathbed" wish, showing loyalty that moved but surprised Yuan Yao.

He can't run to Lu Su and ask bluntly, "Why are you so loyal to me", which inevitably seems to be too low in emotional intelligence.

But not long after the last incident, Lu Su once again touched Yuan Yao with his sincerity, so that he finally couldn't help but ask this slightly idiotic sentence.

Lu Su was slightly stunned when he heard this, but immediately solemnly saluted Yuan Yao and said: "The king treats me as a countryman, and I will repay him as a countryman." ”

"......" Yuan Yao looked puzzled.

Seeing this, Lu Su explained: "The subordinates have not been in the lord for a month, but they are already in a high position, and it is not an exaggeration to say that under one person, above ten thousand people, how can the subordinates not repay the heart of 'the death of the person who is a confidant'." ”

Yuan Yao's face was stunned when he heard this.

Although the Lu family has a lot of assets, because no one in the ancestors became officials, it can only be regarded as a strong party, which is far from the family.

Lu Su has great ambitions, and he is not satisfied with just being a country tyrant with a lot of money, but wants to step into the career to show his strengths, in order to be famous for a hundred years.

Yuan Yao, as the son-in-law of the Yuan family, is in a high position, but he is not like the ordinary "second generation" who looks at people with his nostrils, not only does he not care about Lu Su's background, but he doesn't even mind the "black history" that he secretly did right.

According to the pre-Qin legacy, the relationship between the monarch and the minister is relatively equal, and how the monarch treats his subordinates, the subordinates will repay the monarch. If the treatment of subordinates exceeds the normal courtesy, the subordinates should repay with death, forming the so-called style of raising soldiers.

It is also known as "the death of a confidant." ”

The reason why Yuan Yao reused Lu Su so much, if it was a later generation, it would be easy to understand, it was nothing more than an obsessive compulsion to collect talents.

Among the people of Jiangdong, the most popular are the four major governors.

Zhou Yu was the first governor of Jiangdong in history, and during his tenure commanded the Battle of Chibi and defeated the peerless hero Cao Cao.

And Lu Su is Zhou Yu's successor, and he once presented Sun Quan with a "collapse strategy" comparable to "Longzhong's pair", Wen Taowu is the top, and he is not just the image of a "good man" in Romance.

But now that Zhou Yu is nowhere to be seen, and he still belongs to the category of dark enemies, who else can Yuan Yao use without Lu Su.

People who are familiar with history may not have any doubts about Yuan Yao's approach, but the "locals" of the Three Kingdoms will inevitably be a little surprised, especially Lu Su, who is the party concerned, will naturally be moved to a mess.

"I see......"

Just when Yuan Yao thought he had got the answer, Lu Su suddenly said a sentence:

"However, in addition to being grateful to the lord for his kindness, his subordinates do still have some selfishness, and this selfishness is related to one person's ......."

These words made Yuan Yaogang's heart not only lift it again......

"Who?" Yuan Yao couldn't help but ask.

"Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin."

Lu Su suddenly said the name word by word, and there seemed to be a look called "fighting spirit" in his eyes, which made Yuan Yao a little surprised.

“……”

In the past, when Yuan Yao talked to Lu Su about Zhou Yu, there was obvious admiration and admiration in Lu Su's eyes, but now there was a sudden change.

In Yuan Yao's amazement, Lu Su seemed to fall into a memory, and slowly explained: "My subordinates used to be young and shallow, and they thought very highly of themselves, but since I met Gong Jin, I knew that there was a sky outside the sky, and there were people outside the world.

Gong Jin, whether it is Wen Tao Wu Luo; is still a gifted family background; Even in terms of fame and bearing, he was superior to me everywhere, and convinced me that I voluntarily followed him to conspire with him.

Gong Jin is also a teacher and friend to his subordinates, and has always been my goal and role model, and I never thought that I would one day surpass him.

But since he took refuge in the lord, his subordinates suddenly found that in his official career, his subordinates had left Gong Jin far behind, and they were about to complete the business that Gong Jin had not yet completed - to unify Jiangdong.

The love of the lord made his subordinates have confidence, realized that Gongjin is not unsurpassable, and has the opportunity to compete with one of them in the land of Jiangdong and surpass himself!

And all this is thanks to the lord, otherwise there will be no possibility of progress in this life......"

Lu Su said this, got up and came to Yuan Yao, showed gratitude, and said: "The lord has the grace of knowing me, and now he has added the virtue of recreation, how can his subordinates not die in return." ”

After that, he solemnly bowed to Yuan Yaoquan to show his gratitude.

"Hahaha!" Yuan Yao laughed and helped Lu Su up, "Zijing has the best ambition to fight against Zhou Yu, this is better than anything else." ”

Yuan Yao led Lu Su to sit down beside him, and then said: "Speaking of Zhou Yu, Zi Jing thinks where is this beautiful Zhou Lang now, what is his intention, and why has he not seen anyone until now?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Su also replied cautiously: "Since the lord replaced Sun Ce as the commander and sent troops to Jiangdong, Gongjin's plan has been disrupted, and it is unknown what he intends to be a subordinate now, but no matter what his plans are, in the end, he can't get around one point, that is, the family."

The strength of the Sun family and the Zhou family is no match for the lord in any case, so getting the support of the Jiangdong family is an unavoidable link.

If the subordinates can take the opportunity to let the Jiangdong family tie their own interests with the lord, then no matter how much Gong Jin plans at that time, it will be useless. ”

Yuan Yao was surprised: "Oh? Why did I Dao Zijing suddenly become so aggressive, it turned out to be to deal with Zhou Gongjin. ”

Lu Su nodded and said: "This is the main reason, it was not easy to explain to the two Zhang just now, so the subordinates did not mention it." ”

Yuan Yao's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and said, "What do you think is the purpose of Sun Ce's sudden recommendation to me?" ”

Lu Su frowned and thought: "The subordinates didn't know Erzhang before, and I don't know if these two people participated in Gongjin's plan for Jiangdong, but since they were recommended by Sun Ce, the lord naturally can't ignore them."

The subordinates thought that Sun Ce's purpose this time might be to divide power. ”

"Decentralization?" Yuan Yao was stunned.

Lu Su nodded and explained: "The lord is going to unify Jiangdong, which will inevitably increase the authority, and the two Zhang are famous people in the world, and if they take refuge in the lord, they will not be reused, and they will inevitably share the power.

For Sun Ce, it would be the best thing if he could override the lord. ”

"Empty me?" Yuan Yao raised his eyebrows, and his face was full of unhappiness.

Lu Su nodded and continued: "Especially the Wujun family, it is the main target of my previous campaign with Gongjin, it can be said that it is the foundation of Sun Ce, most of them are supporters of 'Jiangdong people leading Jiangdong', and the Sun family is still from Wujun, which is more in line with their interests, if they enter the power center of the lord, I am afraid it may not be a good thing." ”

Yuan Yao's brows furrowed deeply, and he finally gave up: "We will talk about this matter later, and today we will mainly finalize the grain business." Now I already know that Zi Jing's strong push for the grain line is to force the family to stand in line, the purpose is to curb Gongjin, but will this price be a little too big, if it annoys all the Jiangdong families, wouldn't it be bad for us to unify Jiangdong? ”

Lu Su said earnestly: "My lord, no one in the Jiangdong family wants to see the Yuan family enter Jiangdong, the best result for them is that the Jiangdong people lead Jiangdong, and then isolate themselves from the world, so that their interests will not be infringed upon by outsiders, and they will enjoy the undeveloped resources of Jiangdong exclusively."

These people are all potential helpers of Sun Ce and Gong Jin, if we don't coerce and induce them to change their positions as soon as possible, then we will have to harm them sooner or later.

Gongjin is now in the shadows, if there is any plan, the best time is when we unify Jiangdong and disperse the four counties, because he will definitely not give us time to prepare everything, if he succeeds, then all we do is to make a wedding dress for him, and the 'calm first and then change' that Er Zhang said is simply wishful thinking for us. ”

Lu Su paused, and saw that Yuan Yao seemed to listen to it in his heart, so he continued: "As for the matter of hindering the unification of Jiangdong, the lord doesn't have to worry, first of all, we have adopted a strategy of division, using the grievances between the families to pull a group to fight a group, so that the family that takes refuge in us merges the family that does not want to take refuge, so it is just their own infighting, and it has nothing to do with the lord."

If anything goes wrong, it's time for his subordinate Shang Ying to come out. ”

Yuan Yao's face turned cold when he heard this: "Just one Jiangdong wants my Shang Ying, then my lord is too useless."

What I'm worried about is not that Jiangdong can't be pacified, but that I don't want our Chinese sons and daughters to suffer too much damage from internal friction.

But I still understand the truth of not being in charge of the army, if it can't be avoided, I won't die on the tip of the horns, Zijing, you can rest assured. ”

Lu Su's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Did the lord agree to forcibly push the grain?" ”

Yuan Yao said with a ruthless face: "Well, it's up to you to make the decision, and you can do it." ”

"Subordinates take orders!" Lu Su stood up and saluted.
