The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 390
"Although what you said is not entirely true, there is some truth to it. They are indeed worth wooing, but things don't come in a hurry. I need to test it out slowly. Zhou Yu should come back to me soon. You go down first. Remember today Don't tell others about it, or I will kill you and divide your family." Sun Quan asked Wen Xu to keep today's matter a secret.

"The subordinate will not let the third person know, otherwise he will be struck by lightning!" Wen Xu swore, and then left the room.

In less than a cup of tea, Zhou Yu and others came back, and Zhou Yu looked for Sun Quan immediately after returning.

"Zhou Yu met the Patriarch!" Zhou Yu saluted Sun Quan.

"Hahahaha, why is Gong Jin so polite, get up quickly." Sun Quan greeted Zhou Yu with a smile, and helped Zhou Yu up with both hands, but the more Sun Quan was like this, the more uncomfortable Zhou Yu felt.

After learning that Sun Quan sent someone to follow him, Zhou Yu felt that he underestimated Sun Quan's scheming. In his opinion, Sun Quan was still a 20-year-old young man with few cities, but Sun Quan's performance today was beyond his expectations. He obviously doesn't trust him in his heart, but he is very respectful to him on the surface. This kind of character is completely opposite to Sun Ce.

"Brother Gongjin, today I sent Wen Xu to discuss with you. Just now he came back and reported to me that I sent him to follow you because of your misunderstanding. Please don't have any other thoughts, Brother Gongjin. I, Sun Quan, absolutely treat you. trust." Sun Quan explained Wen Xu's matter, his face was sincere, if Zhou Yu didn't know the truth, he would really believe Sun Quan.

"I didn't take this matter to heart. I don't know what the Patriarch wants to discuss with me when he comes back?" How could Zhou Yu be deceived so easily, but he didn't expose it. It is meaningless to argue with Sun Quan about this matter.

"It's not too important. I want to change all the servants and servants."

"Change the servants and servants?"

"That's right, the current servants and servants are all given by Li Yuan. I am worried about them. There must be people from Li Yuan among them who will tell Li Yuan our information, so these people must be replaced." Sun Quan He is quite cautious, and he is worried about people who are not chosen by him.

"That's very easy, just dismiss these servants and servants and recruit a new batch." Zhou Yu felt that Sun Quan only had to make a decision on this matter, and there was no need to discuss it with him at all. The other party was really looking for an excuse to cover up.

"One more thing. I want to train a group of soldiers who will serve my Sun family. What does Brother Gongjin mean?" Now Sun Quan has only two hundred guards and dozens of personal guards under his command. The number is too small, which makes him feel unsafe.

"Yu thinks it can't be done now." Zhou Yu objected without hesitation.

"Why?"

"I have just arrived in Xiapi for a few days. If I suddenly train soldiers, Li Yuan will definitely notice him. Maybe he will use this as an excuse to deal with us, so we can't expand our recruitment now, let alone in Xiapi now. Even if we train again There are definitely not as many soldiers as Li Yuan, and we need to put this matter aside for now, and it will not be too late to train soldiers when Li Yuan's surveillance on us is not so strict in the future." Zhou Yu explained.

"Well, we will do what Gongjin said." Sun Quan nodded in agreement, but his face was a little unhappy. In fact, he did not agree with Zhou Yu in his heart, but he said so to make Zhou Yu trust him.

Zhou Yu had also seen Sun Quan's dissatisfaction, and the two of them stopped talking suddenly, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. In the end, Zhou Yu was the first to say: "If the Patriarch has nothing else to do, then I will leave."

"Okay, you go down first." Sun Quan nodded.

When Zhou Yu left the room, Sun Quan's face became more and more cold. He could already feel that Zhou Yu was wary of him. Zhou Yu became like this after the meeting with Yuan. He couldn't help but say, "Huh, what a Zhou Yu, I'll let you groan for a while, and I'll take care of you sooner or later."

At night, Zhou Yu drank alone in the house. He wanted to help Sun Quan wholeheartedly, but he didn't expect that Sun Quan didn't trust him, which made him feel very sad. He and Sun Ce would never have such a situation, but Sun Quan is not Sun Ce , although they are brothers, they have completely different personalities. Sun Quan's city is much deeper than Sun Ce's.

"Hahahaha, why is Gongjin drinking alone?" Lu Su's voice sounded outside the door.

Zhou Yu hurriedly went to open the door and asked, "Zijing, why are you here?"

"It was late at night, but Gongjin's room was still bright, so I came over to check it out, and vaguely saw your shadow drinking alone from outside the door. I think you must have encountered something disturbing." Lu Su knew Zhou Yu very well. .

Zhou Yu looked sad and nodded slightly.

"It's so lonely drinking alone, don't you intend to invite me in?" Lu Su walked in before waiting for Zhou Yu's answer. In fact, he and Zhou Yu have a very good relationship, otherwise he wouldn't come to Xiapi with Zhou Yu, he came to Xiapi Not for Sun Quan, but for Zhou Yu.

In the early years, when Sun Ce raised an army in Danyang, the lack of food and grass was entirely dependent on Lu Su's funding, so Lu Su was kind to Sun Ce, and later he defected to Sun Ce. When he fought with Li Yuan, Lu Su was not reused, but Zhou Yu knew this friend well. His ability, so let him go to Xiapi together, intending to assist Sun Quan with him, but Sun Quan made him feel so cold, he didn't know if he would serve faithfully.

"Is Gong Jin troubled by the matter of the Patriarch?" Lu Su sat down and poured himself a glass of wine.

"How do you know?" Zhou Yu sat down opposite Lu Su and looked at him in surprise.

"I heard that Li Yuan asked you to go out today. After you came back, you went to see the Patriarch. After meeting the Patriarch, you stayed in the room and did not come out. I think you must have had some conflicts with the Patriarch." Lu Su guessed.

"Zijing, what kind of person do you think the Patriarch is?" Zhou Yu asked suddenly.

"The head of the family is a very talented person. Even Er Zhang agrees with him very much. However, he has been living in the shadow of Sun Ce, so few people pay attention to him. There is nothing different about him in martial arts, commanding troops, and marching and fighting. Comparable to his elder brother Sun Ce, but Sun Ce is far inferior to the patriarch in the way of the emperor." Lu Su expressed his evaluation.

"Dare to ask Zijing what is the way of an emperor?"

"It is not necessary for a ruler to be proficient in the art of war or internal affairs, and he does not need to charge into battle, nor does he need to be clever, but he must have ambition, foresight, know how to employ people, and know how to balance the power among his subordinates. Although the Patriarch has not had many opportunities to show , but I think he is a very tolerant person and extremely ambitious. To put it bluntly, he should be a person with deep scheming. Such a person is most suitable to be a monarch. Maybe people who really know him will not like him , but he is indeed more suitable than Sun Ce to fight for the world's hegemony." Lu Su said slowly.
