Long Xiang was stunned immediately after hearing this, and at the same time shocked Lu Su's wisdom, and asked the most sensitive topic in one sentence.

The 'honest man' of the Three Kingdoms who was portrayed by the TV series is not a resourceless and unwise person.

When he took over the governor of Eastern Wu, the various factions in Jiangdong were fighting openly and secretly, and the situation was complicated.

Long Xiang was mainly opposed by Lu Su's sharp questions, and he must make a quick decision now, and now he has only two choices: finding a reason to be perfunctory or confessing.

If he finds a reason to be perfunctory, Long Xiang believes that the other party will not continue to ask, and then the two of them tacitly, but the impression that that it brings to Lu Su is that he has become a clever and cunning person.

If he told the truth, Lu Su might be moved by Long Xiang's honesty, but he might also be disgusted with Long Xiang's grain interception, and then completely deny it from his character.

Serving as a soldier for Yuan Shu to calculate his food and grass, if this matter is placed on the moral high ground, Long Xiang's behavior can be regarded as a 'stain on life'.

As a modern person who has traveled through time, Long Xiang just wants to survive in his own way, and as for the so-called moral constraints, he actually doesn't care.

After all, he was born at the bottom, and no one cares whether he has morality or not, even if Long Xiang does good deeds every day, he may not be able to get ahead.

Years of experience have taught Long Xiang that if people are too honest and kind, they must have a very difficult and even miserable life.

Everyone is praising honest people, but everyone is 'bullying' honest people.

In the original world of Long Xiang, those so-called successes who are now in the spotlight, few of them can see the light in the first pot of gold, but in the end they are all packaged as hard work and luck.

Take the end of the Han Dynasty in front of you as an example, how many of the princes who stood at the top of power really adhered to morality and benevolence?

Long Xiang intercepted Yuan Shu's 100,000 grains, and Yuan Shu and the Yuan family intercepted the Han Dynasty, and the scholars represented by them competed with the imperial power for a long time, and finally broke up the dynasty that lasted for 400 years.

Lu Bu killed his father-in-law for profit, Cao Cao slaughtered Chengchi for profit, Sun Ce rebelled against Yuan Shu for profit, Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu for profit, Ma Teng jumped sideways for Li Guan and bandits, and Liu Yan offered advice for Li Zhou Mu...

At the end of the Han Dynasty, everyone had many immoral 'stains', but it did not prevent these people from chasing the world, nor did it prevent capable people from serving them.

Although Liu Bei also had some minor flaws, he was a clear stream among the princes, so Long Xiang chose him without hesitation.

Yuan Shu collected the people's fat and ointment for his own use, and Long Xiang intercepted his grain for the people.

From this point of view, Long Xiang didn't feel guilty, but he was just worried about celebrities like Lu Su.

Since he couldn't escape, Long Xiang had a clear conscience, and he made another big gamble and decided to treat each other with sincerity.

"Since Zijing mentioned it, Long Xiang didn't want to hide it, two years ago, Yuan Shu married Lu Bu and promised to give Lu Bu 100,000 grains as an employee, most of which was intercepted by me privately and transferred to this Hefei City."

"It turned out to be..."

Lu Su was obviously shocked by Long Xiang's honesty, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"At that time, I was serving as Quhou under General Qiao, but I was favored by Han Yin, a close confidant of Yuan Shu, in fact, he took a fancy to me with a simple background..."

Long Xiang saw that Lu Su did not have a look of disdain, so he told the story of the grain interception in detail.

When Long Xiang finished speaking, he picked up the bowl and drank water, and Lu Su muttered:

"I suspected that Surabaya was burning the boat at the time, I didn't want it to be Long Sima who used a clever trick to hide from the world, that is, your status is low and not concerned, and Yuan Shu and Lu Bu are also suspicious of each other, otherwise this matter will not stand up to scrutiny..."

"At that time, if Zijing was Yuan Shu's staff, I was afraid that I would not be able to live until now..."Long Xiang shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Looking at Long Xiang's childish face, Lu Su shook his head slightly and quipped: "Speaking of which, a small part of the military rations intercepted by Long Sima is actually mine." ”

"Huh?"

Long Xiang was stunned when he heard this, and frantically used his brain to calculate, and then asked: "Could it be that Zhou Gongjin sent those grains..."

Lu Su nodded slightly, "At that time, Yuan Shu was constantly fighting foreign wars, and the grain required by various counties and counties to hand over kept increasing.

"How much food did Zijing give at the beginning?"

"There is a warehouse of grain, about 3,000 hundreds."

When Long Xiang heard the good guy, he said in his heart that Lu Su was actually an angel investor.

He then got up and strode to Lu Su, and 'threatened' seriously: "Zijing knows my secret in Hefei, and he can't let Mr. go." ”

Lu Su patted his chest and promised: "The person that Long Sima is worried about is none other than Shouchun Yuan Shuer, and now Hefei is only in and out, and I believe that it is difficult for the news to spread north."

Since Lu Su abandoned the official and went south, he has nothing to do with Yuan Shu, and I promise with my own reputation that I will never spread this matter, and I will not say it when I see Gongjin. ”

"Hahaha..."

Long Xiang first looked up to the sky and laughed, then lowered his head and said meaningfully:

"Why does Zijing think this can be done? That's because I'm cautious enough to eliminate all uncertainties.

I believe in Zijing's character very much, but as long as you are a human being, you will make mistakes, in case you get drunk one day or talk in your dreams... So..."

When Lu Su saw that Long Xiang was really coming, he immediately stood up from the seat.

Looking at Long Xiang, who was also tall, Lu Su frowned: "Long Sima wants to kill me?" ”

"Definitely."

Long Xiang waved his hand lightly and said sincerely: "Hefei is on the occasion of employing people, I admire Zijing's talent very much, and I want to ask Mr. to live here for a few years, and wait until Yuan Shu is defeated, and then let you go." ”

Lu Su raised his eyebrows and snorted lightly: "What if Yuan Shu doesn't die?" Won't I be trapped in Hefei? ”

Long Xiang asked solemnly: "Yuan Shu said that the emperor was self-reliant and was not tolerated by the world, so he would die, and the son would abandon the official and leave, didn't he also see this?" ”

"Although Yuan Shu can't make a big deal, Huainan's strength is still not weak, although Cao Cao has the heart of annexing in the south, but Yuan Shao in the north is eyeing the tiger, and Liu Biao and Lu Bu also covet the Central Plains, so Yuan Shu may not die in a short time..."

Lu Su stroked his beard and nodded to analyze, and his excited emotions were relatively stable.

After hearing this, Long Xiang suddenly changed his words: "Zijing went south to find Gongjin, did he intend to go with him to join Jiangdong Sun Ce?" I advised my husband to keep his eyes open. ”

"Long Sima thought about it a lot..."

Although Lu Su's expression was very calm, he was agitated in his heart.

He asked Long Xiang a fatal question just now, and now the other party's question is equally fatal, but he subconsciously chose not to admit it.

Long Xiang did not make useless arguments, but immediately began to analyze.

"Zhou Yu and Sun Ce have a general relationship, in the past, when Sun Ce borrowed troops to fight against Liu Xuan, Zhou Yu accompanied him to fight left and right, and contributed a lot;

At this time, Yuan Shu faced the threat of Cao Cao and Lü Bu, and was no longer able to cross the river and recapture Jiangdong;

Most of the current Jiangdong surnames are Sun, and Gongjin is recommended by Zijing, and I believe that Sun Ce will be reused. ”

Lu Su waved his hand again and denied: "I don't deny that your analysis is good, but I abandoned my official position in Dongcheng this time, but I was advised by a friend to go south to vote for Zheng Bao..."

Long Xiang was stunned for a moment, what is Zheng Bao? The characters who can be favored by Lu Su, why haven't you heard of them?
