Wen Zhao saw everyone saluting, and hurriedly waved his hand, signaling that there was no need for more courtesy.

Then he personally stepped forward to hold Lu Su's arm, and said eagerly: "I have heard that Zijing's name has been around for a long time, but I only hate the mountains and the long roads, and I can't see them." Today, I am fortunate to be able to see Mr.'s face, which is really a great blessing in my life. ”

Although Lu Su is famous in the local area, he is not narcissistic and thinks that he is really famous all over the world. Therefore, I felt a little flattered by Wen Zhao's eager praise.

Lu Su was stunned and asked, "The general also knows that there is Su Ye in the world?" ”

Wen Zhao's face was solemn, and he said: "Mr. is anxious and righteous, generous, and praised by the neighbors, I have already been like thunder!" ”

At first, Lu Su thought that what Wen Zhao said was just polite words, but now that some of his deeds have been mentioned, Lu Su believed that Chen Xu had really heard of his reputation, and he was immediately moved in his heart.

Lu Su sighed: "It's just a thin name, and I am very ashamed to be able to enter the ears of the general." ”

Wen Zhao still grabbed Lu Su's hand tightly and said, "Mr. is unknown to others, but I know it in my heart. If Zijing is willing to come to Guanzhong to give in, I will definitely be on the table to the Son of Heaven, a high-ranking official, and let Zijing choose. ”

Lu Su was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that Chen Xu would be so blatantly recruiting himself.

Lu Su immediately shook his head slightly and said, "My lord treats me very well, how can I covet the general's high-ranking officials?" Please ask the general to mention this matter again! ”

Wen Zhao not only did not get angry, but looked around at everyone, clapped his hands and sighed: "The Lu of the Eater, the matter of loyalty to the King, Zi Jingzhen is a loyal minister." ”

The greetings have ended, and Wen Zhao naturally has a big feast and treats Lu Su well. During the banquet, he did not take the initiative to ask Lu Su about his intentions, but only persuaded him to drink.

It wasn't until late at night that the banquet dispersed, but Wen Zhao secretly asked someone to call Lu Su into the bedroom.

Seeing Lu Su, Wen Zhao immediately said apologetically: "There are many people in the banquet, and it is not a place to discuss important matters. If the gentleman does not give up, he and I can sleep with me tonight and discuss great matters. ”

Lu Su thanked him, and he was extremely grateful in his heart, and secretly thought: "I usually only heard that the general is broad-minded and thirsty for talent, and I still have doubts in my heart. Looking at it today, I know that the rumors are true. ”

"The fact that the general can lay such a family business with a small body must have its merits. It's just a pity that it's too late for me to meet the general! ”

Wen Zhao naturally didn't know Lu Su's thoughts, and after the two of them sat down on the bed, he couldn't help but say, "I heard that Mr. came this time to discuss the alliance with the two sides, but right?" ”

Lu Su bowed his head lightly and said, "Yes." ”

"Now that the Han family has been robbed, the world is constantly fighting, the people are displaced, and the princes have cut the land to stand on their own, and they often have a heart of disobedience. The general served the Son of Heaven to conquer the Quartet, occupy the righteousness, and the heavenly soldiers were invincible. ”

"However, today, the weak princes have almost been wiped out, like Yuan Benchu, Cao Mengde, Liu Jingsheng, Liu Jiyu and others, all of whom are tigers and wolves, and the general must not be guarded against."

"Among the princes, only my lord is far away from the general, and he respects the Han family in his heart, and is willing to look at the general. If Chen Sun formed an alliance, even if the general and the princes of the world were at odds together, what would the general be afraid of? ”

Wen Zhao also said: "Sun is loyal to the heart of the Han family, heaven and earth can be learned, and I often have the heart of alliance with Wu Hou. Since Zijing came here in person today, how could I refuse this matter? ”

Speaking of this, Chen Xu's words changed: "Although I serve the Son of Heaven to please the ministers, but the princes are powerful, and it is extremely difficult to figure out, I don't know if Mr. can teach me how to act in the future?" ”

When Lu Su heard this, he bowed his head and was silent.

Chen Xu treated him extremely warmly, and he couldn't help but answer when he asked him about Celusu; It's just that he is now Sun Ce's subordinate, and if he gives advice to Chen Xu, it is a little inappropriate.

Therefore, Lu Su was very entangled in his heart.

Wen Zhao secretly looked at Lu Su's face, knew his thoughts, and immediately said: "If I form an alliance with Wu Hou, I will be both prosperous and lossy." Sir, you might as well talk about where the Chen-Sun Alliance should go in the future. ”

This time, Wen Zhao changed his words, but it meant the same thing, and it was also a step for Lu Su.

Lu Su's heart moved, and then he said slowly: "For example, among the princes today, except for my lord and general, the strongest ones are none other than Yuan Benchu and Cao Mengde. ”

"These two people are the heroes of the world, with many generals and talents, and it is extremely difficult to figure them out in a short period of time."

In addition to these two people, there are still Liu Jiyu in Yizhou and Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou. Although these two people occupy the country of abundance, they have no enterprising heart, how can they gain a foothold in the troubled times? ”

"In the world of great strife, if the general wants to make a difference, he should join forces with my lord."

"The general can cut Yizhou, and my lord can take Jingzhou; Defeat the weak with the strong, and make the strong always strong; If the weak do not want to forge ahead, the weak will always be weak. ”

"If the general takes Yizhou, then my lord should be the general to contain Liu Biao in Jingzhou and Cao Mengde in Xuzhou; If our lord takes Jingzhou, he still needs the general to help my lord. ”

"At that time, the general and my lord have already accounted for two of the world, even if Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu are united, what can the general do? These two people were also captured by the general sooner or later. ”

"In this way, the general and my lord divide the world, and they can follow the example of Duke Qi Huan and Duke Wen of Jin to become a hegemon; Isn't it beautiful to enter the Ninth Five-Year Plan and become the supreme? ”

Chen Xu stared at Lu Su tightly, but was silent.

He was silent for a long time before laughing and said: "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years; However, I want to support the Han family, and I have no intention of being subordinate, and I will not mention this matter again. ”

After finishing speaking, Wen Zhao moved to Lu Su's side, took his hand and said: "Zijing's talent is rare in the world, I want to get Mr. but can't, I can't sleep day and night." I begged again and again, and I hope that Mr. can stay in Guanzhong and help me support the Han family. ”

Looking at the ardent hope on Chen Xu's face, Lu Su was also restless in his heart.

He held Chen Xu's hand with his backhand, and said with some regret: "I didn't come when you started, and I met you when I had the master; It's too late to meet and hate you, and you can't help but sigh in vain? ”

Lu Su didn't say it explicitly, but he also rejected Wen Zhao's re-solicitation in disguise.

As he said, although Lu Su and Chen Xu met late, but now that Lu Su is famous, he can no longer switch to Chen Xu.

Moreover, among the princes of the world, Chen Xu is not the only one who is the master of the Ming, although Sun Ce is younger than Chen Xu, he also has the style of a hero. Even if it is not good, it can also be divided into kings in troubled times.

Scholars are the most loyal, and although Lu Su defected to Sun Ce not long ago, he also won Sun Ce's trust. If he abandoned Sun Ce just because of Chen Xu's solicitation, he would definitely be spurned by the people of the world.

Therefore, Lu Sucai said: It is too late to meet and hate you, and you can sigh in vain.
