"The lord must not say this in front of people, the princes are hostile to the lord, and with Yuan Shu's help, the lord occupies Xuzhou." Mi Zhu lowered his voice.

"Zizhong's words, Ben will understand that Wen He is responsible for entertaining the envoy, and there will be no mistakes, how has Xianyu been recently?" Lu Bu asked.

"Merchants have a great demand for immortal jade, but the speed at which the lord provides immortal jade can barely keep up." Mi Zhu said excitedly.

Lu Budao: "Although we let go of the business, but in the recent past, we can buy more grain, grass and materials from nearby states and counties, and secretly hoard them for emergencies. ”

"My subordinates understand." Mi Zhu arched his hand.

Xianyu has provided a lot of help for Lu Bu to gain a foothold in Xuzhou, and after the success of Xianyu, Lu Bu is also full of confidence, if he produces more things that are not available in this era, after proper publicity, the profits will be far beyond imagination.

In this era, most of the wealth is gathered in the hands of wealthy families, relying on the power of the people, it is more difficult to buy these luxury goods than to ascend to the sky.

However, if you want to take the money from the hands of the family, it is not a simple matter, in the past, Emperor Xiaoling exterminated the Yellow Turbans and fought against the Qiang people in Liangzhou, which required a lot of materials, and it was clear that the hands of the family did not lack these things, but they were unwilling to help the imperial court, could it be that these officials were not loyal to the monarch and patriotic?

After many years of development, the wealthy family has today's heritage, they will not easily give up the interests of the family, as for what kind of means the monarch has, in order to get benefits from these families, it depends on the level of means.

The appearance of Xianyu allowed Lu Bu to get a lot of money from the hands of rich people, and it also made many families grow because of it, Lu Bu got benefits, and so did the family.

Yuan Shu wants to get benefits from his hands, Lu Bu will not let go of such an opportunity, Jianghuai is rich, if Yuan Shu promotes immortal jade on his behalf, then immortal jade will definitely be able to sweep the land of Jianghuai in a shorter period of time.

At this time, Yuan Shu solved a lot of problems for Xuzhou.

In fact, this is also inevitable, Yuan Shao is in the limelight, as the sister-in-law of the Yuan family, how can Yuan Shu be willing, naturally he doesn't want to let Yuan Shao get any benefits, Sun Jian's death makes Yuan Shu's camp lack a fierce general, and it is a good thing for Lu Bu to fill the vacancy.

The princes of the world are still more concerned about the movement of Xuzhou, and the position of Lu Bu Xuzhou Mu was taken from Tao Qian's hands, such a situation must be stopped, otherwise, the princes will not be uneasy in the future.

Yuan Shu sent an envoy to Xuzhou at this time, so that the princes could see Yuan Shu's thoughts.

Yuan Shao's reaction was particularly fierce, and he sent a message to various states and counties, once again denouncing Lü Bu's crimes, from betraying Ding Yuan outside Luoyang City to leading a large army to attack Pengcheng.

Shi Taoqian, the assassin of Xuzhou under the fence, shouted that Lu Bu's behavior was shameless, not only lost Xuzhou, but even his family was controlled by Lu Bu, and his resentment towards Lu Bu can be imagined.

Lu Bu turned a deaf ear to all this, as if he was not talking about it.

The officials in Xuzhou who supported Lu Bu were secretly anxious, but Lu Bu did not say anything about this, but only ordered the soldiers in the army to step up training.

In terms of righteousness, it is indeed difficult for Lu Bu to compete with the princes at this time, but if he wants to gain a foothold in the troubled times, the most important thing is to have strong strength, so that it is difficult for those who come to attack to have a good result, and win one battle after another, so as to protect everything.

The princes scolded very happily, and so did the literati, and Lu Bu at this time was the wicked person in their eyes, and he should be cut by a thousand knives.

Even Yuan Shu, who had just formed an alliance with Lu Bu, realized that something was wrong, followed the advice of the strategists, and did not stand up to speak for Lu Bu, Lu Bu was the person at the top of the wicked, and whoever spoke for Lu Bu would be spurned by the scholars of the world.

Many princes secretly sneered, feeling sad for Lu Bu's fate, the rejection of the Shi clan made it difficult for Lu Bu to get the support of more Shi clans.

Without the support of the family, it is simply impossible for a monarch to want to do more, and they have even seen the decline of Lü Bu among the princes.

The rumors intensified, and all kinds of things about Lu Bu gradually spread in Xuzhou.

Lu Bu immediately ordered the arrest of the person who secretly publicized the matter, in Xuzhou, he is the master, even the family in Xuzhou, must respectfully act according to his orders, and want to have other small actions in secret, which Lu Bu does not allow.

These things can be circulated under the rule of the princes, but not Xuzhou.

For several days in a row, Lu Bu's mood was a little solemn, and the mouth of the people was more important than the defense of Sichuan, and it was not a matter of arresting a few people to let these rumors be dismantled.

Moreover, Yanzhou and Qingzhou are ready to move, and they have the heart to invade Xuzhou.

When night fell, in the governor's mansion, Lu Bu discussed with Jia Xu and Mi Zhu in the room.

"Wen He, Zizhong, the actions of the princes of the world, you must have seen it, the reason why they are doing this is to take Xuzhou away from the hands of the general." Lu Bu said slowly.

Mi Zhu got up and said: "The subordinates will definitely do their best to assist the lord to stabilize Xuzhou, so that the young people will not dare to make trouble." ”

Lu Bu nodded slightly, but set his eyes on Jia Xu.

In Xuzhou, Mi Zhu is the person he trusts more, Jia Xu's strategy is high, Lu Bu admits it, and his development is inseparable from the power of strategists.

"Marquis Wen, I think that the princes secretly spread unfavorable remarks against Marquis Wen in preparation for the attack on Xuzhou, once such remarks are widely spread in Xuzhou, the stupid people will definitely believe it, and the princes' army will come at such a time, isn't it overwhelming?" Jia Xu said.

Mi Zhu's complexion changed slightly, Xuzhou is the most important place for the Mi family, and the Mi family's support for Lu Bu is also the greatest, Xuzhou is broken, which means that the Mi family will decline.

"What about Wen He's opinion?" Lu Bu asked.

Jia Xu pointed to the topographic map hanging on the wall and said: "From the humble point of view, Wen Hou might as well lead the army to take the initiative to attack, Kong Rong, the minister of Beihai State, and Liu Dai, the pastor of Yanzhou, have a lot of insults to Wen Hou, and after beating the two of them painfully, the rest of the princes dare to be presumptuous to Wen Hou?" ”

"Although there is some truth in this statement, Liu Dai and Qingzhou Kong Rong have a lot of soldiers and horses, and it is said that Liu Bei, the prime minister of the plains, also led a large army to Beihai, and there seem to be signs of alliance with Kong Rong." Mi Zhu said.
