Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 298 Lu Su
Lu Su is 24 years old, and he is still a young man.His father died when he was born, and he lives with his grandmother.The family is very rich, but because no one of his ancestors has been an official, Lu Su's family property is rich in wealth.But it does not belong to the gentry class, but the kind of wealthy family with some power in the local area.

In today's words, Lu Su is a real rich second generation.But this rich second generation is completely different from those of later generations, and he is not at all the honest, loyal or even cowardly guy in the novel.When he was young, he had great ambitions, was good at making tricks, and loved fencing, riding and shooting.He has a bold personality and doesn't value money.Because of his rich family, he often recruited young people to teach soldiers and practice martial arts together.On a sunny day, we went to Nanshan to shoot and hunt together.When it is rainy, gather people to teach the art of war and practice martial arts.

According to the information obtained by Liu Xie a few days ago, Lu Su was still serving as the mayor of Dongcheng under Yuan Shu, but unexpectedly, he became Sun Ce's envoy in a blink of an eye.But it's normal to think about it carefully. In history, Lu Su saw Yuan Shu's perverse actions, and he resigned from office after not working for a long time.

It is estimated that in the past two days, Lu Su received a letter from Zhou Yu, and then decided to start following Sun Ce.He hadn't received any information from the Black Ice Terrace, that is to say, Lu Su had just entered Sun Ce's tent at this time, had at most one interview with Sun Ce, and then took over the duties of an envoy and came to Chang'an to congratulate him.

Looking at the radiant jade seal in the brocade box, Liu Xie's thoughts not only did not stop, but diverged even more.This time, Sun Ce's actions were very obvious. He just wanted to use the jade seal, which is an important weapon of the country, to ease his relationship with the Han Dynasty.If Sun Ce had only one person, according to his willful and unrestrained temperament, he would definitely not make such actions that he could not accept at all.From this, it can be inferred that Sun Ce has already received advice from famous advisers such as Zhou Yu, Lu Su, and even Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong.

It can be said that Sun Ce's strategic decision is very correct.Yuan Shu, a seemingly strong listed stock, has fully exposed its essence as a junk stock in the Kanto War. If you follow Yuan Shu, Sun Ce will never be able to break out of his own world.However, at the time of the chaos in the Kanto, it was of great help to Sun Ce's future aggressiveness to whitewash his identity and establish a good and orderly relationship with the Han Dynasty, at least not to attack each other.

The young lion of Jiangdong has finally begun to grow wings like a tiger, ready to show his fangs to the land of Jiangdong with his complete and ferocious posture, and roar to make all animals tremble with fear.

It's a pity, after all, I'm young, and I'm just starting to get involved in politics for the first time... Liu Xie looked at the second governor of Soochow Wu who offered to send him to his door, his face was full of shock after the fading, the kind of fox looking at a fat chicken. Dese, couldn't help muttering to himself: "What a gift, a great gift... Hahaha."

Poor Lu Su, at this moment, he still doesn't know that he has become Liu Xie's prey. Seeing Liu Xie is so happy, his face can't help but relax, and he said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the jade seal is the most important weapon of the country and the place of the Han Dynasty. Undercover traitor Yuan Shu's account was for this day to return to Zhao. The battle of Wancheng was also caused by a misunderstanding, so he had to meet with the Han army. However, the Lord's loyalty to the Han family can be learned from the sky, the sun and the moon can prove it, and the ten thousand I hope that Your Majesty will turn the clouds to see the moon, and return my lord's innocence."

After saying these words, Lu Su bowed again and did not dare to get up for a long time.His patriotic true feelings of enduring humiliation and fighting hard, moved all the ministers in the hall, and they were all indignant and eager to speak.

However, Liu Xie looked at Lu Su very delicately at this time. Although he knew that Lu Su was not that kind of pedantic person, he never thought that the real Lu Su would be so... so unreasonable. Face.

Not bad, but shameless.

What was undercover under Yuan Shu's tent, what was the last resort to fight the Han Dynasty, all bullshit!Is a hero like Sun Ce the material for an undercover agent?You, Lu Su, can really say that Sun Ce is Yu Zecheng without blushing or panting?Zu Mao, the four great tiger generals in Jiangdong, died at his own hands, and Sun Ce wanted to cramp and skin himself when he left. Just such a bloody enmity, in your mouth, Lu Su, has become an act of enduring humiliation and rejuvenating the Han Dynasty Sacrifice?

But, having said that, such a Lu Su... I like it!

As a result, Liu Xie, who was holding the jade seal, smiled more and more intensely on his face, and his voice seemed to be whispering tenderly to his lover: "What the county magistrate Lu said is very true. The sincerity of the general! Come, issue an edict!"

Li Yan, the man of five senses, immediately stepped forward. Although he is no longer Huang Menlang, what is interesting is that Liu Xie still retains the right to report to the counselor as an attendant.After Li Yan studied the ink well, Liu Xie's draft had already been prepared, and he said casually: "Pursuing Sun Jian, the former Polu general, as General Pingnan, he is allowed to be buried in Chang'an Zhonghun Tomb, and enjoy the honor of the people of the Han Dynasty paying respects and offering sacrifices. Sun Ce, the son of General Pingnan, is the captain of Zhechong, who is in charge of General Pingnan's former troops and patrols Jiangdong."

As soon as the edict came out, Lu Su's face suddenly became more bitter than bitter gourd.What a man with a delicate heart, he couldn't see that Liu Xie's edict was clearly conferring Sun Ce, but in fact, it was trying to demolish Sun Ce!

First of all, there is a lot to be said about the pursuit of Sun Jian.In the Han Dynasty, the generals of Sizheng, Sizhen, Si'an, and Siping were all divided into towns, southeast, northwest, and four directions. Among them, the general with the word "Zheng" was the most honored, followed by the generals of Zhen, An, and Ping.

But how did Sun Jian die? He died at the hands of General Zhennan and Jingzhou Mu Liubiao.If Sun Jian had been that bullshit Polu general under Yuan Shu back then, it would have been nothing more than a civil strife among the generals of the Han Dynasty.However, Liu Xie named Sun Jian as General Pingnan with bad intentions, which shows that he let the world know that Sun Jian suffered a natural disaster because of the following crimes.

Secondly, worshiping Sun Ce as the two of Zhechong's lieutenants is even more sinister.

Ordering Sun Ce to lead Sun Jian's old army is clearly a reminder to Yuan Shu that Sun Ce must fly solo and suppress.Most of Sun Jian’s elite soldiers when he was begging for Dong were the Huaisi elite soldiers recruited after joining Yuan Shu. After Sun Jian’s death, Yuan Shu quickly caged these elite soldiers under his wings like an old hen protecting its chicks, and did not allow anyone to get involved .However, Liu Xie's edict clearly asked Sun Ce to lead this elite army. For Yuan Shu, what is it not to provoke?
Also, is a little Lieutenant Zhechong qualified to guard Jiangdong?No!For such an important task, at least one Zhonglang will come out to be barely qualified.And a school lieutenant has the most qualifications, which is the power to inspect Jiangdong as Liu Xie said.What does inspectable mean?It's just that this place is infested with bandits. You have the responsibility to cooperate with the suppression of the chaos, but you have no right to garrison and guard it.To put it bluntly, it's just work and no fodder!
Of course, the world is in turmoil today, and no one would seriously play word games with the imperial edict.But!Similarly, no one is so stupid as to disregard the imperial edict.The imperial edict clearly stated that Sun Ce is interested in Jiangdong, so those prefects in Jiangdong, why don't you hurry up and send more people to guard against Sun Ce?

Perhaps, for other envoys, exchanging a piece of jade seal for an upright school lieutenant in the imperial court is considered to have completed the task.But for Lu Su, if he got back such an edict, it would be ashamed not to go back to Sun Ce's account.Therefore, after a long while of bitterness on Lu Su's face, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and report to Liu Xie:
"Your Majesty, General Polu's campaign against Dong, with his troops pointing northward and his voice moving across the sea, is to drive out the rebellion for the Han Dynasty. The north is where General Polu's star fell. Li, it is too ostentatious to take charge of a battalion at the beginning of his official career, and I hope His Majesty will not spoil the growth of the young and ruin the uncarved jade."

Lu Su reluctantly said these words, but in fact, he did not have any expectations for these requests of his own.Because ever since he heard this edict, he knew what kind of mistake he had made: negotiating conditions with this young emperor was simply seeking skin from a tiger!This 14-year-old boy seemed to have fully understood his own thoughts from the moment he showed his jade seal.

In the negotiating field, the most fearful situation is that the other party is the first to know their bottom line!

No matter what Lu Su said, he would not believe that Liu Xie had learned of his conspiracy with Sun Ce, and this edict stepped on the edge of his bottom line exactly.This feeling made Lu Su extremely uncomfortable and aggrieved.

Even, for a moment, he really hoped that Liu Xie would just grab Fang Yuxi by force.In that way, I can still be like Lin Xiangru in the planned Warring States period, rushing to the crown in Chang'an and scolding the emperor angrily, leaving a reputation for eternity.But Liu Xie didn't have the slightest intention to be violent, that smiling face... well, Lu Su couldn't help but want to slap him even more.

However, something happened that finally changed Lu Su's face.After Liu Xie heard Lu Su's request, he didn't use Taiji Push Hands. Instead, he thought about it carefully, and then said leisurely: "Your master's plot against Yuan Shu and Jiangdong is just to sneak into the village and shoot. Don't...it doesn't do any harm to me. If County Magistrate Lu is reluctant to be a long history in Chang'an, it's not impossible to discuss it."

The head of Dongcheng is a county magistrate with a salary of [-] shi, and the chief history of the Sangong Mansion also has a salary of [-] shi, and there is no improvement in rank.But for Lu Su, this meant something different. First of all, he was no longer the mayor of Dongcheng at all.In addition, the most important thing is that a small county magistrate, a foreign official, can't compare with a Beijing official who is within easy reach of the emperor-Liu Xie threw out this olive branch, clearly promoting Lu Su!
However, if Lu Su hadn't had an interview with Zhou Yu three days ago, he might have been tempted by it.But today, he just shook his head with a smile, and declined to Liu Xie: "I am a humble minister with little talent and learning, and I am afraid that I will fail the entrustment. Please take your majesty back."

Liu Xie would never think that Lu Su would submit to him like this, so he looked at Lu Su, showed the same smile as Lu Su just now, and lightly parted his lips: "Recently, is the grandmother of County Magistrate Lu still in good health? "
