Lu Kang is old, and his ambition is not as good as before.

Defending Anhui City can keep Lu Kang's reputation.

In the future, on the history books, Lu Kang can also be given a name of loyalty.

Therefore, Lu Kang was not very interested in the alliance of the three counties that Hua Ji said.

Even if he learned that Yuan Shu was captured alive, it couldn't make Lu Kang make up his mind.

But Lu Yi and Zhuge Liang are both Kunzhong and have become protégés jointly cultivated by Liu Bei and Zheng Ping, so this nature is different.

The most important thing for the Maison is inheritance.

No one wants to die and fall into the middle of the family.

And now, the interests of the Lu family of Wujun are tied to Liu Bei and Zheng Ping.

Helping Liu Bei is helping the Lu family of Wu County!

This had to make Lu Kang consider the future impact of the alliance of the three counties to resist Sun Jian's future impact on the Lu clan of Wu County.

Thinking that if Sun Jian returned to Jiangdong, he would inevitably attack Anhui City again, Lu Kang hesitated again.

Long.

Lu Kang said slowly: "The son of Kang Chenggong is indeed the dragon and phoenix among people. With such a layout, the old man couldn't even find a reason to refuse. ”

"Ah Yi can become a protégé of the Zheng family, which is his blessing."

"Old man, how can you not help Ah Yi."

Hua Ji bowed: "In this way, I will go to Yuzhang first and persuade my brother to form an alliance with the three counties." ”

After Hua Ji left, Lu Kang couldn't help but sigh again: "There are so many heroes in the world." Although Ah Yi has met a nobleman, it is difficult to determine what his future achievements will be. ”

"The old man is nearly seventy years old, and he doesn't have many years to live, so he probably can't see Ah Yi's growth."

"Ah Yi's personality is jumpy, although he is smart but his precipitation is insufficient, it is difficult to compete with the world's best men."

"When you have humility and accumulation, you can achieve great things."

Thinking of this, Lu Kang replied with a letter and handed it to his eldest son Lu Jun: "Ah Jun, you go to Linzi City for the old man and hand over this letter to Ah Yi in person." ”

"In the name of the elders, let's change the name of Ah Yi."

Lu Jun said: "What does my father want to change the name of Ah Yi?" ”

Lu Kang said: "Shangshu. "Da Yu Mo" has a saying: full of losses, humble benefits, time is the way of heaven. It can be renamed Xun, and I can become a big tool only if I save my body three times a day. ”

Yuzhang County.

Hua Ji met his brother Hua Xin, who had been separated for several years.

When he was in Nanyang, Hua Ji heard that Hua Xin was detained by Yuan Shu and went alone, but he failed to see Hua Xin.

Now goodbye, but I was ordered to lobby Hua Xin.

The impermanence of the world made Hua Ji feel a little emotional.

Suddenly hearing that Hua Ji was coming, Hua Xin was also overjoyed: "Zicheng is doing things under Xianmou, how can he have time to come to Yuzhang today?" ”

Hua Ji couldn't hide the joy of the reunion, and said with a smile: "I came for private affairs, and I came for official business." ”

Pleasantries for a while.

Hua Xin invited Hua Ji to come to the inner courtyard for a drink.

Looking at the turbid wine prepared by Hua Xin, Hua Ji took out his own Qingzhou wine, and the word "immortal brewing" was also pasted on the wine jar.

"Brother, don't blame, this stupid brother can't get used to drinking it."

"When I came, I brought a few jars of immortal brew and drank it with my brother."

Hua Xin originally wanted to say that this turbid wine tasted delicious, but before he could open his mouth, he smelled the unique mellow aroma of the immortal brew, and when he saw the clear wine like mountain spring water, he immediately swallowed the praise of the turbid wine back to his stomach.

"Zicheng, where did you get this wine? If the spring is clear and mellow into the spleen, this altar will have at least a thousand gold! "Hua Xin is not an alcoholic, and occasionally drinks two bottles.

Hua Xin has to invite or go to banquets on weekdays, and he has a lot of knowledge about various wines.

Hua Ji smiled: "Except for Brother Xianmou, who else can make such a fairy wine?" ”

The wine is in my throat, and the cold in this winter day has also been reduced a lot.

Hua Xin asked about the matter: "Zicheng, what are you coming to Yuzhang County for this time?" ”

Hua Ji said: "Brother Xianmou has the intention to prompt Lujiang County, Yuzhang County and Huiji County, the three counties to form an alliance against Sun Jian. ”

"The foolish brother has gone to Wancheng, and the Duke of Lujiang Taishou Ji Ning has agreed to form an alliance, if the elder brother is interested, the foolish brother will go to Huiji County to find Wang Lang with the two books."

Hua Xin didn't answer immediately, and after a moment's consideration, he said: "Yangzhou has its own imperial assassin history, if you want to fight against Sun Jian, you only need to listen to the order of Yangzhou assassin history, why do you need the three counties to form an alliance?" ”

Hua Ji chuckled: "How can my brother not see the situation clearly?" If Liu Miao really had the ability to pacify Yangzhou, how could he be expelled by Sun Jian from Wu County? ”

"Liu Miao didn't know the overall situation, because he was selfish and abolished the public, he even seized the warship purchased by Qingzhou in Wu County without authorization, forcing Kong Beihai's righteous brother and former Wu County Taishou Sheng Xiaozhang to abandon his official position and flee."

"Liu Xuan's lack of ability, and he aroused the resentment of the people, and he has already betrayed his relatives."

"This Yangzhou needs a famous and popular celebrity to appease the counties."

"If my brother is interested, he can serve as the assassin of Yangzhou."

Hua Xin shook his head: "Liu Envoy Jun is still here, and I can't be ordered by the emperor, how can I be the assassin of Yangzhou?" This matter cannot be discussed again. ”

Hua Ji said with a smile: "Brother Xianmou knows that his brother is upright, and he didn't let the foolish brother bring the appointment. ”

"Although my brother can't serve as the assassin of Yangzhou without the emperor's order, this Yuzhang Taishou is appointed by the Son of Heaven."

"The food of the king, the matter of loyalty to the king."

"My brother can't bear to see the traitor Sun Jian wantonly set off a military disaster in Yangzhou, so that the people of Yangzhou are in fear of military disasters."

"So the alliance between the three counties, my brother must have been ready to agree."

Hua Xin looked at Hua Ji again, as if he wanted to get to know Hua Ji again, and couldn't help but feel a little more relieved in his heart: "Zi Cheng is a good man, far better than in the past." ”

"Brother Fool can't argue with you anymore."

Hua Ji bowed: "The foolish brother is just doing what he is ordered, and it is the elder brother who is humbling the foolish brother." ”

Hua Xin laughed: "Zicheng is too modest, with your performance today, it is not in vain that you have studied hard for many years." ”

"It's just that the foolish brother is good at government affairs, and he is not good at the military, even if he allies with the three counties, he may not be able to resist Sun Jian's soldiers in a hundred battles."

Hua Ji shook his head lightly: "Brother, don't worry. Calculating the time, the Fei military camp in Qingzhou had already arrived in Huiji County with the salt merchant's ship. ”

"The brother of the chief general of the Fei Military Camp also knows, it is the sworn brother of Brother Xianmou, Donglai Tai Shici!"

"The military advisor of the Fei military camp is a famous man in Hebei."

"At the same time, the warships in charge will also stay in Huiji County."

Hua Xin was shocked: "This is a conspiracy to Yangzhou?" Even if there is no response from the foolish brother, it will not affect the layout of the conspiracy in Yangzhou. ”

Hua Ji nodded: "Brother Xianmou is thoughtful, no matter whether the three counties are allied or not, it will not affect the layout of the core." The alliance of the three counties to resist Sun Jian is just to make Brother Xianmou's layout more meticulous and perfect. ”

"Those who mess with Yangzhou are headed by Yuan Shu and Sun Jian."

"This time, Brother Xianmou wants Yuan Shu and Sun Jian to have no place to stand in Yangzhou."

Hua Xin got up.

The news brought by Hua Ji was too shocking.

Hua Xin's news in Yuzhang County is closed, and it is difficult to look at the changes in the situation in Yangzhou.

If it weren't for Hua Ji's arrival, Hua Xin wouldn't have guessed that Zheng Ping would plot against Yangzhou!

Hua Xin pondered: "Sun Jian is brave, even if Tai Shi Ci has management and help, he may not be Sun Jian's opponent." ”

"Zicheng doesn't know, except for Lu Taishou's soldiers and horses, Brother Yu's soldiers and horses and Wang Taishou's soldiers and horses are all embarrassing."

"Moreover, the situation in Jiangdong is complicated, there are too many forces entrenched, and there are Shanyue people who often intrude on the place."

"If you want to compete with Sun Jian, it's still too difficult!"

"If you annoy Sun Jian, this Yuzhang County, the foolish brother can't protect it."

Hua Xin is cautious, but also lacks courage.

After all, Hua Xin majored in civil affairs and government affairs, and was good at civil affairs rather than military governance.

If it is in the prosperous era, Hua Xin is a very qualified Yuzhang Taishou, but in the troubled times, Hua Xin's cultural governance is more than enough.

Hua Ji drank a bottle and said with a smile: "Brother is too timid." ”

Hua Xin frowned: "Zicheng, the foolish brother is Yuzhang Taishou, and he wants to protect the safety of a county." ”

"If you are not well equipped and use swords and soldiers, you are bringing disaster to Yuzhang County."

"If you can protect the people of a county, even if you are timid, what's the matter?"

Hua Ji has been following Zheng Ping for a long time, and he does not agree with Hua Xin's idea: "Under the nest, how can there be eggs?" The elder brother wants to protect the people of a county, but there are still tigers and wolves in Yangzhou. ”

"If you don't get rid of the tiger and wolf, even if you try to take refuge in the tiger wolf, it will only delay the disaster."

"To protect the people of this county, only by getting rid of the tigers and wolves can we ensure the safety of one party."

Hua Xin talked eloquently, and the bursts of defense made it difficult for Hua Xin to resist.

Looking at the high-spirited Hua Zhi, Hua Xin couldn't help but sigh: "If the foolish brother is unwilling to form an alliance with the three counties, what other tricks does the conspiracy have?" ”

Hua Ji stared at Hua Xin and said without thinking: "Probably, there will be a change of Yuzhang Taishou." ”

Hua Xin's eyes widened suddenly, and his eyes gradually became serious: "Change Yuzhang Taishou?" Why? ”

Hua Ji said in a condensed voice: "With Qingzhou Liu Envoy, he has the right to fake festivals; Those who do not obey the order are regarded as Yuan Shu's party. ”

"Yuan Shu's party supports the Son of Heaven in Zhuocheng, so for the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, it is rebellion."

"Crusade against rebellion is the Son of Heaven of Chang'an, giving Liu Envoy the power to make Jun!"

There was a pause.

Hua Ji sighed lightly: "Brother, originally this errand was done by you Zhengping. But the foolish brother was worried that You Zhengping would have a verbal conflict with his brother, so he asked to come here. ”

"Brother, Brother Xianmou is fully assisting Liu Yuanjun, in order to support the Han family."

"On this road of the Kuangfu Han Chamber, Brother Xianmou will not tolerate someone blocking the road."

"Even if the elder brother has an old relationship with Brother Xianmou, if he blocks the path of Brother Xianmou, the future of the elder brother will be unpredictable."

This slightly threatening remark made Hua Xin frown a little when he heard it.

If You Heng comes, Hua Xin may not be able to beat You Heng out of the stick.

But it was Hua Xin who came, but Hua Xin had to think about it more.

Long.

Hua Xin looked at Hua Ji with a complicated expression: "The three counties formed an alliance to resist Sun Jian, so that the three counties should listen to Tai Shici's orders." ”

Hua Ji didn't hide it, nodded and said: "Brother Ziyi is a person who can be absolutely trusted by Brother Xianmou, and he is also a key person in pacifying Yangzhou. ”

"Although Brother Ziyi's current ability is not enough to be in charge alone, the help of Mr. and Mr. is enough to help Ziyi win over the famous heroes in Yangzhou."

"In other words, Brother Ziyi will eventually serve as the pastor of Yangzhou with the credit of pacifying Yangzhou."

Let Tai Shici be in charge of Yangzhou, not let Zhang Fei be in charge of Yangzhou.

This is essentially a balanced distribution of common interests between Liu Bei and Zheng Ping.

Although Tai Shici voted for Liu Bei early and was Zheng Ping's righteous brother, his status in Qingzhou has never been high.

Even if it was a recruitment, he was engaged in it as a soldier.

And Tai Shi Ci has never had an obvious positioning.

In the past, everyone was in Qingzhou and was committed to the development of Qingzhou, and there were not many benefits that could be shared, but there would be no contradictions.

And now, Qingzhou has begun the strategic layout of dominating the south of the Yellow River, and this benefit has to be relatively fairly distributed.

Guan Yu is Liu Bei's brother-in-law, and it is understandable to let him make meritorious contributions to serve as the pastor of Xuzhou.

If Liu Bei did not rely on Zheng Ping to establish himself in Qingzhou, then Yangzhou Mu would have to be served by Zhang Fei.

However, Liu Bei has been competing with the heroes south of the Yellow River since he was based in Qingzhou, and Zheng Ping is the biggest hero.

But Zheng Ping can't directly lead the army to make meritorious service and shepherd one side, so Zheng Ping's righteous brother and the chief general of the Fei Military Battalion, Tai Shici, has become the best candidate for meritorious service in Yangzhou.

What Tai Shici represents is the interests of the Qingzhou scholars headed by Zheng Ping!

Therefore, even if Tai Shi Ci does not have the ability to take charge alone, it is still Tai Shi Ci who comes to Yangzhou instead of Zhang Fei.

Ability can be honed.

After Zheng Ping summoned Liu Bei of his plan to lay out Yangzhou, Liu Bei ordered Fu Zhu to assist Tai Shici in going south together.

Ultimately.

Under the persuasion of Hua Xin, Hua Xin agreed to the alliance of the three counties.

However, Hua Xin concealed the information that Liu Miao was now in Yuzhang County.

It's not that Hua Xin has any different intentions, but Hua Xin is worried that Hua Ji will have any accidents after learning about Liu Xuan's information in Yuzhang County.

After all, only when Liu Miao died, Tai Shici could logically temporarily take over the three counties.

Huiji County.

The arrival of Tai Shi Ci and Fu Zhu, as well as the large number of warships docked off the coast of Huiji County, made Wang Lang feel jealous.

Wang Lang, who didn't know what Tai Shici and Frustrated had to do, went out of the city with Yu to see him.

"Wang Taishou, there is a letter from Mr. Yuanda here."

As soon as Tai Shici saw Wang Lang, he presented Zhao Yu's letter.

Wang Lang and Zhao Yu are good friends, seeing that Tai Shici has no malice, and presents Zhao Yu's letter, Wang Lang has a lot less fear in his heart.

After a quick glance at Zhao Yu's letter, Wang Lang's expression gradually became serious: "General Taishi, although Liu Tingshi was defeated, he did not die. ”

"If we recommend you to temporarily take Yangzhou, I'm afraid it will anger Liu Tingshi."

Tai Shi Ci smiled and did not answer.

Fu Zhu retorted: "Liu Miao was ordered to pacify Yangzhou, but he lost troops one after another, so that Wu County and Danyang County fell into the hands of Yuan Shu. ”

"Qingzhou Liu Envoy Jun has a scepter given by the Son of Heaven, which can patrol the hunt on behalf of the heavens and pacify the chaotic parties in the counties."

"Liu Miao is nowhere to be found now, but Yangzhou can't be left without an owner for a day."

"General Taishi temporarily leads Yangzhou, purgizes Yangzhou soldiers and horses, and sweeps away the chaotic parties entrenched in Yangzhou one by one, which is the most important thing at present."

"Wang Taishou is unwilling to obey Liu Yuanjun's scepter order, what does this mean?"

Frustrated with righteousness, Wang Lang with a scepter, suddenly let Wang Lang be on his back.

Wang Lang hurriedly explained: "Misunderstanding! As a Hanchen, how could I not obey the emperor's orders? Liu Yuanjun has the scepter of the Son of Heaven, and I should listen to his orders. ”

"It's just that there is a lack of soldiers and horses in Huiji County, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to compete with Wu County and Danyang County."

Frustrated, he said, "It's okay! Lujiang Taishou and Yuzhang Taishou both have an old relationship with Liu Yuanjun, and Wang Taishou only needs to obey orders. ”

Wang Lang suddenly solemnized: "Did Lujiang and Yuzhang also get orders?" ”
