Chapter 0725 - State Affairs Must Be Managed, and Revenge Will Be Avenged
Lu Kang and Lu Jining are the oldest in Jiangdong, nearly seventy.
The Lu family of Wu County has lived in Wu County for generations.
When Lu Kang was young, he had a fierce temperament. is old, although he is no longer young and vigorous, but his nature is difficult to change.
Seeing that Liu Bowen's words were sharp, and Jiangdong talents were speechless, Lu Kang couldn't help but be annoyed and reprimanded: "Since Bowen is a bureaucrat in the Shogunate of Taiwei Liu, how can he not know the truth that the guest does not deceive the master. ”
Liu Bowen saluted and said: "Lu Gong is an elder, and the younger generation dares to be disrespectful." It's just that Liu Ji feels that everyone here is talented and virtuous, and they are all leaders of Jiangdong. But in terms of position, vacillating, Liu Ji is deeply afraid of you, misleading himself and others, General Bo Fu, and the people of Jiangdong. ”
Lu Kang was even more angry, rubbed the ground with a cane, coughed a few times, and said: "My Jiangdong people and others, although they are stupid, they know righteousness!" Luoyang and Shouchun, which is right and which is wrong, how can you not distinguish between them? And you are the envoy of the imperial court, but in the land of my Jiangdong, you blindly preach and take advantage of your tongue, is it to force me Jiangdong to issue an order to expel guests? ”
Liu Bowen was trembling with anger when he saw Lu Kang, and he was overjoyed in his heart.
Before Liu Bowen came to Wu County, he had a full understanding of the situation in Jiangdong.
Although Sun Ce is the lord of Jiangdong, his foundation is still shallow. In order to secure Jiangdong, Sun Ce had to win over the Jiangdong family and reach a compromise with it.
According to Sun Ce's personality and Liu Bowen's eloquence, it is not difficult to convince him.
However, the family has a great influence in Jiangdong affairs, and can even influence Sun Ce's decision.
It is difficult to convince Sun Ceyi and convince the family.
Most of the Jiangdong people here are from famous families, and they are all arrogant.
Although they admit that they are vassals of the Han Dynasty, in their hearts, they do not take the declining Liu Han court very seriously.
To deal with such people, good words and persuasion can usually only hear their high-sounding and polite responses.
On the contrary, Jiangdong people who are agitated by words and are high-minded, although they will be angry, they will also hold their breath and prove themselves.
And sarcasm and harm are Liu Bowen's natural skills.
Seeing that Lu Kang was angry, Liu Bowen smiled instead. "Lu Gong has learned a lesson. However, when Liu Ji came to Jiangdong, he didn't feel that he was a guest. We are all subjects of the Han Dynasty, and Jiangdong is also the territory of the Han Dynasty, so how can we say that we are the host and the guest? Of course, if Jiangdong has the heart to call himself a vassal to the Shouchun puppet Han court, it is another matter. ”
"Liu Ji, you!" Lu Kang was trembling with anger. "You are so arrogant, don't blame the old man for being polite!"
Liu Bowen still had a wicked smile on his face. "As the saying goes, the old don't bully the young. Lu Gonggaojie elders, how can they deal with arrogant juniors? ”
Liu Bowen is thick-skinned enough, so Lu Kang has no way to take him.
Lu Kang was so angry that he coughed violently. made Old Man Lu angry like this, and everyone in Jiangdong looked at Liu Bowen angrily.
Liu Bowen stopped talking.
When Lu Kang's condition stabilized, Liu Bowen said again: "Lu Gong's health is not safe, there is a miracle doctor Li Dongbi in Luoyang, and when the younger generation returns to Luoyang, go to Mr. Dongbi to ask for a good prescription, and give it to Lu Gong to recuperate." ”
Lu Kanggan glared and snorted, he really didn't have a problem with Liu Bowen.
……
Jiangdong talents, almost all of them were derogatory by Liu Bowen.
Zhang Zhao and others were very annoyed, but they couldn't help but taste Liu Bowen's words carefully.
Although Yuan Shu's power is great, the righteousness is in the hands of the Luoyang Imperial Court and Liu Mang.
If Jiangdong is inclined to Shouchun Yuan Shu, Jiangdong scholars will definitely bear the infamy of the world!
Zhang Zhao and others will meet with Liu Bowen's situation and report to Sun Ce urgently.
Sun Ce quickly replied and asked Liu Bowen to go to Lou County to meet.
……
Lou County, east of the sea.
Sun Ce Liu Ji stood on the shore, looking at the vast sea and listening to the waves crashing on the shore.
Sun Ce said: "I, the Sun family, am a subordinate of the Han Dynasty, and I should be loyal to His Majesty the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty. It's not that Sun Ce has selfish thoughts, but he does have bitter intentions. ”
Sun Ce pointed to the endless sea.
"Serve as a Hanchen and protect the Han frontier. I have a long coast in the east of the river. In recent years, pirates have been rampant, and bandits have been plagued one after another. Sun Ce didn't dare to take it lightly all the time. If the people along the coast are bullied by pirates, how can they be safe? And how can you explain to the imperial court? ”
Liu Bowen twisted his beard.
For Sun Ce, he can't use it to deal with Jiangdong scholars.
Sun Ce is fierce and straightforward, and derogatory treatment can only provoke him into bad things. And proper compliments and praise can be effective.
"General Bo Fu has the legacy of Wucheng Hou, has a broad mind, and is as powerful as the sea. Taiwei Liu believed that General Bofu knew the righteousness, so he sent Liu Ji thousands of miles away. ”
Liu Bowen put a high hat on Sun Ce, but Sun Ce smiled.
He and his father Sun Jian have similarities and are also very different.
Liu Bowen said that the Sun father and son were loyal to the man, and he was indeed right.
But to say that his father and son are as powerful as the sea is really an exaggeration.
As for temperament, the father and son are even more different.
Sun Jian was cold and unsmiling.
And Sun Ce, marching and fighting, was ruthless. And Ping Suri is very casual, and when he has nothing to do, he often giggles and jokes with his subordinates.
After listening to Liu Bowen's compliment, Sun Ce smiled and said, "Mr. Berwyn, don't cover me with a high hat." I, Sun Ce, can see right and wrong clearly, and I also remember hatred clearly. Not as much as Mr. Berwyn said. ”
"General Bo Fu is humble."
"No!" Sun Ce turned his head with a sly smile on his face. But a pair of tiger eyes are full of cold light. "Sun Ce not only doesn't have a lot of energy, but also doesn't read much. But to know, to forget state affairs, is to be disloyal; Forgetting family affairs is for unfilial piety. ”
Liu Bowen is so shrewd, he naturally understands the meaning of Sun Ce's words.
When Sun Ce said about state affairs, he naturally referred to the conquest of Yuan Shu and the Shouchun puppet court.
And the so-called family matter is Sun Ce's father's enmity - Sun Jian's death in Jingzhou!
Sun Ce mentioned these two things together, and the meaning was obvious. If you want me to participate in state affairs and ask Yuan Shu, you can! But the premise is that I want to give an explanation for my family affairs and the future expedition to Jingzhou Liu Biao!
Winning over Sun Ce is a matter of great importance.
Liu Bowen said: "State affairs, world affairs, and the husband is responsible." Family affairs, private affairs, others can only do their best, but it is inconvenient to interfere. ”
Liu Bowen is sleek.
He knew that Sun Ce would have to take revenge on Liu Biao sooner or later.
And Liu Bowen is an envoy of the imperial court, of course, he can't directly express his position, and promised to support Sun Ce and attack Liu Biao. can only vaguely say that Sun Liu's enmity is a personal grudge, and the court will not interfere.
Sun Ce also understood what Liu Bowen meant, and stared at Liu Bowen with a smile. "What Mr. Berwyn said, is it Mr. His's own meaning, or is it Mrs. Liu's idea?"
Liu Bowen once again showed the cunning of the old fritters. "Hehe, Liu Ji has been in my lord's mansion for many years, and I expect that my lord, as the head of the imperial court, has a lot of opportunities, and I am afraid that I will not have time to take care of other people's private affairs."
"Hahaha......" Sun Ce laughed loudly, "Lao Liu, Lao Liu, you don't have to be so cunning to talk to my Sun Ce, right?!" ”
"Hey......
Sun Ce waved his hand haughtily. "Okay, I believe you Lao Liu!"
Sun Ce's face was cold again. "I heard that Lao Liu, you still have to go to Jingzhou. Please bring a message to Liu Jingsheng, just say that I, Sun Ce, will talk to him about private affairs after I finish handling state affairs! ”
Liu Bowen bowed his hand and said: "General Bofu is well aware of the righteousness, and the country is fortunate!" ”
As for seeking revenge for others, Liu Bowen naturally won't do this kind of stupid thing. (To be continued.) )
