On the way back to the embassy, Lu Ye and You Heng were of course secretly happy in their hearts at this time.

"General Gao Lan, the Jizhou soldiers in his hands should be the best army under Yuan Shao. If we can have a complete understanding of the overall combat effectiveness of the Jizhou Army, then if a war breaks out as you said, we will be able to occupy an advantage more or less. "Actually, You Heng didn't find out that he is completely thinking on Cao Cao's side when he does a lot of things now.

Lu Ye nodded: "It's really fate, we made so many preparations before, begged so many people, and gave so many gifts, but we didn't expect to achieve this in the end, and the previous arrangements were useless." ”

You Heng nodded: "Actually, this is a good thing, right?" ”

"Of course."

"Zihang is very grateful to Yuan Gong for his love...... It's just that Xu Du is still tied up and can't walk away. When Lu Ye said this, his face deliberately showed a flush, and he seemed to be a little embarrassed.

Yuan Shao didn't seem to care much about Lu Ye's words, he just smiled.

Xu You said: "At the beginning of the separation, I still remember the skills in Zihang's hands. Now I didn't expect to be able to meet again in Yecheng. Maybe this can be regarded as a godsend. ”

Of course, Lu Ye was very disappreciative when he heard this, thinking to himself what kind of heaven-given fate this was. It's not like you deliberately rushed back from the front.

"At the beginning, I heard that Zihang you have improved the art of papermaking. I thought to myself that this can be regarded as a great ability, so I thought of inviting you from Xu Ducheng, but I didn't expect that at that time, Zihang was still full of reluctance. Xu You seemed to be talking casually, but no one knew what kind of sinister thoughts were in him.

Lu Ye didn't want to think about this, but he still felt a little embarrassed.

Xu You doesn't have a good impression of himself, this is not a difficult thing to guess. The current Lu Ye is not a little chick who has just arrived at this era.

A lot of things are already well understood.

"At that time, I was young and frivolous and ignorant...... Lu Ye can't be stupid and say that he doesn't look down on Yuan Shao at all. Of course, Yuan Shao can be called a hero, and to be able to achieve such achievements and status in such a chaotic era, Yuan Shao's ability is absolutely undoubted.

It's just that compared with that traitorous male, Yuan Shao is still a lot worse.

A single way of the royal family can be seen.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao confronted each other, Cao Cao was at a disadvantage, and then Cao Cao's soldiers, led by Xun Yu, firmly believed that this battle would be won. And Yuan Shao's subordinates, before the war started, someone poured cold water.

After that, his general Zhang He demoted Cao Cao before he fully showed his disadvantages.

As soon as Zhang He fell, Yuan Shao was gone.

Yuan Shao obviously has some optimism about Lu Ye, but if he is really very optimistic, so that he has to keep Lu Ye, then it will not be.

In fact, after Xu You came back, he had already stated to Yuan Shao something about Lu Ye, but Yuan Shao obviously didn't care much about this matter.

For Cao Cao, whether it was the improvement of papermaking or the invention of the Quyuan plow, Lu Ye gave Cao Cao a great help. But for Yuan Shao, this kind of help is good, but it doesn't have to be so.

Of course, the reason is also very simple, what Cao Cao is short of, Yuan Shao is not lacking.

What is Cao Cao missing? Lack of money, lack of food.

Papermaking can help Cao Cao solve such a problem, and so can Quyuan plow. But is Yuan Shao missing? Yuan Shao is not lacking, places like Jizhou and Qingzhou have had bumper harvests in previous years, and the money and grain in Yuan Shao's hands are not much more than Cao Cao's.

reputation, of course, this is also one of the benefits that Lu Ye brought to Cao Cao.

But in the same way, Yuan Shao is not short of fame.

Who is Yuan Shao? Born in the fourth world and the third duke, and he was the leader of the alliance of the princes of the Eighteenth Road to crusade against Dong Zhuo, although that matter was not a glorious thing, but in general, Yuan Shao's reputation was cultivated early. He has no shortage of these things.

There is no shortage, which means that there is no urgent need.

It is precisely because of this that the icing on the cake is something that is icing on the cake, and there is nothing if there is none. Although Xu You tried his best to explain to Yuan Shao what Lu Ye could bring him, Yuan Shao had made up his mind and didn't want Lu Ye to stay under his hands very much.

Xu You's flattering eyes are not very different from throwing them to the blind in the end.

Yuan Shao said with a smile: "I think, it must be that you didn't know much about us in the past, and now I think it's time to take you to see the demeanor of our Jizhou Army, and at that time, hehe......." ”

Lu Ye smiled: "Yuan Gong said so, that kid can only wait and see." ”

Yuan Shao and Lu Ye had a good conversation, but they suffocated Xu You and You Heng on the side.

Speaking of Xu You and You Heng, the temperament of the two is actually somewhat similar. There's arrogance. The previous You Heng can be regarded as not afraid of heaven and earth. If he was still the same as before, he would definitely be mad if he was treated so slowly by Yuan Shao.

The experience in Wuyang County some time ago, as well as some of the things that Lu Ye said to him, made You Heng's temperament change a lot, at least he knew some measure.

At such a time, he would not come out to add trouble to Lu Ye.

Xu You was also panicked at this time, he had a lot of things in his heart that he wanted to take out to satirize Lu Ye, and he also had a lot of things to say to Yuan Shao, but at this time, it didn't seem to be a good time to interject.

Knowing that the conversation between Yuan Shao and Lu Ye was over, in the end, Xu You and You Heng did not interject.

At the end of the conversation, Yuan Shao and Lu Ye explained some things, and Lu Ye also engraved it deeply in his mind. Then, he and You Heng left the General's Mansion.

It was also at this time, looking at the backs of You Heng and Lu Ye leaving, that Xu You was finally able to speak.

"Lord, why did you let them go like this?" Xu You looked a little puzzled, but there was more anger in his heart, but it was not revealed at this time.

When Yuan Shao heard this, a smile appeared on his face: "Why, Ziyuan still wants to leave them behind?" ”

Xu You was a little unwilling: "That kid, even if I don't want to admit it, I have to say that he really has the ability." Even if you don't want to accept him, then at least you can't let Cao Mengde get it. ”
