Although Lu Su was exiled, his rank was not completely cancelled. It was just that his position as a disciple of the Third Company was over. He was still a real two thousand stone, just like those guys who were called out outside Donghua Gate in the Song Dynasty. No matter what he committed, even if it was After being demoted again and again, he is fundamentally different from others.
The situation of Lu Su is roughly the same. Although he was exiled, when he arrived at the Ganges River, basically all government affairs would be handled by Lu Su. After that, Lu Su would be fully responsible to Liu Bei. After all, the next thing to grab was the King of Jin's. manor.
Therefore, when Lu Su went to the Ganges, he could transfer someone back from the Ganges. Jia Xu's situation was more complicated, and the internal affairs of the Ganges would have a great impact on the subsequent situation, so Jia Xu could not move. Sit on the Ganges.
Then the only important ministers who can be transferred are Fazheng, Xu Shu, and Zhong Yao. Choose one of the three.
As for Dong Zhao, Dong Zhao is still in the state of committing crimes and making meritorious services. Does he still want to come back? Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by Li You? He did good things back then, he was a fifth-level spy. Now, even if he has a place to recruit him, he is very capable, and there is still a trap to be found, otherwise, he would have been killed long ago.
Zhong Yao didn't want to get involved in a place like Chang'an. He could serve the country and run his own family at the same time. It was the best of both worlds. As long as he didn't make money like Sima Lang, no one would say anything, so the final candidate was Fa Zhenghe. Xu Shu chose one of the two.
Fazheng doesn't care. He knows very well that if Lu Su is gone from Chang'an, then he must return a big boss with enough status, and there are only so many big guys working in the four directions with enough status, so it's either him or Xu Shu.
Although Xu Shu is a new boss, he is 002 if he can't resist the talent. The others are all juniors who jumped in and bullied Yuan Zhi for joining the job late. To be honest, Xu Shu was the first civil servant recruited by Liu Bei himself. He only went to study for a few years. Failure to obtain the most sufficient qualifications at the best time.
But now that he had made a big fortune in the Ganges River and filled the final gap, Xu Shu quickly became the first choice for ministers in China and North Korea.
"Staying in Chang'an allows me to take care of my mother, and life is relatively easy. The advantage of staying in Ganges is that I can make contributions. I was still considering it before, but my mother wanted me to stay in Ganges and contribute to the Han family. ." Xu Shu said with a somewhat complicated mentality.
When Chen Zichuan gave them some notices before, Xu Shu actually wanted to return to Chang'an because his mother was worried about his son traveling thousands of miles away. Xu Shu was a very filial person. He had not been in front of his mother in these years, and his mother was getting older. How old was Xu Shu? Somewhat worried.
However, when she went back and told her thoughts to her mother, Xu Shu's mother said that the man's ambitions are everywhere and he should serve the world. She is a bad old woman who has someone to take care of her, and there is no need for a hero to run back and forth. Xu Shu was silent for a long time. His mother was in many places. Very stubborn about things.
"Then I'll stay in Chang'an. I've been in trouble these past few years." Fazheng naturally chose to stay. One of them had to go to Ganges and the other to stay in Chang'an, otherwise they would have to find someone else.
"If anything happens in Chang'an, remember to inform me. Don't let it happen again. I'll know at the end." Xu Shu warned Fazheng. The two of them had cooperated well in the past few years, and their relationship was naturally quite good.
"I'll let you know when I get there, and after you go, you may take over as the general staff. Master Jia can take care of you at most. That guy has other things to do. Your strength lies in breaking moves, so you should think more about how to adjust the structure of the legion. "The ones I left behind may not be suitable for you." Fazheng warned Xu Shu, "Don't worry about face, it's not important."
"If you don't tell me, I will pay attention to it. I am not easily influenced." Xu Shu said with a smile, "But as the chief military advisor, I have exceeded expectations to some extent."
"Everything has a first time. In short, you will know when you take over. The subsequent situation may not be better than before. Just be prepared. Master Jia is actually a cover-up, but don't put your expectations on that person. Sometimes you don't know Why did you start? Just hitting it directly is a bad move." Fazheng informed Xu Shu of his experience.
"What did Mr. Zijing do in the past? Didn't he replace Mr. Wenhe?" Xu Shu frowned and said, although at Xu Shu's level, he also knew what Lu Su had done, but since he was not executed, then he should still If you know how to use it, it is impossible to let a powerful person like Lu Su go without using it in the Ganges River.
"No." Fazheng shook his head, feeling somewhat sad when he thought of Lu Su. If there hadn't been such a big basket, Lu Su would definitely be eating and drinking with Chen Xi and Liu Bei today.
"Anyway, don't think about good things. There is only one military advisor. If you become the military advisor, everyone else will have to step aside. It's as simple as that. Others only have the right to make suggestions to you, and they are the type that you want to listen to or not." Fa Zheng He warned Xu Shu again, "The military advisor of the Ganges Military Region is not only a gold-plated resume, but also a fatal position. Helping Xu Shu up is both training and polishing."
"I always feel that this matter is a bit mysterious." Xu Shu was somewhat aware of what was going on. "It's okay. As long as you knock down the opponent, you can end in peace. Look, I will end in peace." Fazheng said very confidently.
"Wait, does that mean that I will be the one to make things right with Zhu He personally?" Xu Shu finally realized what was wrong. This was not something humans did.
"Well, it's not a big problem. Just make him tired with your powerful output. We used this method before to make him have no time to plan seriously." Fazheng is very confident in Xu Shu.
"It seems that Yuan Zhi and Xiao Zhi have a very good relationship." Liu Bei, who was leaning on the window sill, looked at Fazheng and Yuan Zhi, and greeted Chen Xi with a smile.
"How can it be bad for a relationship that has truly carried a gun together?" Chen Xi said casually.
It was only the Han Dynasty. At any other time, so many civil servants and generals would gather together for a meal, and the emperor would have to seal the four gates at night and mobilize all the imperial guards to prepare for rebellion.
"You have to do this kind of thing more often. I think if you do this a few more times, it won't be so troublesome." Liu Bei felt a little distressed when he said this.
"It costs a lot of money to hold a banquet like this. The food alone is enough to eat up a big family." Chen Xi shook his head repeatedly, "It's okay to hold two occasionally, but it's too expensive if it happens more often. I can’t afford it, I can’t afford it.”
"Hahaha, there are still times when the God of Wealth says he can't afford it." Liu Bei said with a smile, "I hope it can be like today in the future."
After finishing speaking, Liu Bei looked at the sky and said, "It's time for the banker from Jiangdong to arrive."
"Well, it's almost time to come, and we've packed up." Chen Xi smiled and said, "We won't miss them at the main dinner tonight."
"Sun Bofu is a hero." Liu Bei suddenly said.
"I know." Chen Xi nodded, somewhat unclear. "Other Jingchu people may not understand." Liu Bei said slowly.
"Who can the Jingchu people harm? Sun Bofu or me?" Chen Xi said with a chuckle, "Actually, no one can harm anyone, at most they can only beep."
"Flies don't bite, but the buzzing sound is still annoying." Liu Bei said very cautiously, "Give them too much opportunity, and it will only make them unnecessary ambitions."
Chen Xi nodded slowly. He was considered easy to bully because he was easy to talk to.
It was already midnight, and the guests from Jiangdong were already arriving one after another. Sun Ce, who had always looked very dissolute, also changed into a robe this time and drove up straight. Although Chen Xi, who saw this scene on the top floor, , I feel that Sun Ce in this scene is really stupid, even more stupid than usual.
However, when a group of people are like this and arrive in a huge team, it is still a bit rustic to the extreme, which means tide.
To put it simply, it was too awkward, so awkward that it had the opposite effect, so that when the other party appeared in such a posture, Chen Xi was embarrassed not to run down from the top floor to greet him.
Since Chen Xi went to greet him, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others could not pretend not to see him, so a large group of people went to pick up Sun Ce.
As a result, when the two sides met, how can I describe the feeling? Sun Ce and his men were like high-ranking people in formal attire attending the meeting, while Liu Bei's side felt like they were eating barbecue and drinking beer in the streets of Northeast China in vests and big slippers. Liuzi.
The gap between the two sides was so obvious that after meeting, there was a collision of styles. "Bo Fu, did you inform me wrongly?" Zhou Yu, who was wearing a moon-white Confucian shirt and looking heroic, sent the message to Sun Ce. The group of people opposite looked like streetwalkers.
"Something is not going well. Did our style of painting lose to the other side? How do we feel that compared with the other side, we are just like the Caotai team? Shouldn't we be regular troops?" Fazheng sent a message to others to ask, and his morale suddenly improved. Down three points.
"Wu Hou, why are you so formal when you come to have a casual dinner?" Chen Xi bit the bullet and got in. What happened to the Caotai team? The painting style on the opposite side overshadowed what happened. I got in. It's his fault!
Sun Ce was also numb at this time. Such a group of barbecue-style characters appeared on the opposite side, which had a great impact on Sun Ce's appearance as a heroic overlord today, making Sun Ce even doubt whether he had made a mistake.
There is a saying that it is not scary to wear matching clothes, whoever is ugly will be embarrassed.
But now, the distortion of the painting style is not a problem. Whoever is not confident will collapse first.
"How many tons of ingredients did I pay for a simple meal?" Sun Ce gritted his teeth and pushed forward. At this time, it was impossible to say that he ran back to change clothes. To change clothes for these, they Jingchu people just threw them away. What I didn't say, forced Come on, I'm not here for a casual meal, I'm here for a banquet.
"This is probably a matter of personal senses and positioning." Chen Xi said to Sun Ce as if sighing, "I don't think this is a big meal. Isn't this just the two of us sitting down and having a light meal to get closer to each other? Really? If you are too particular, the favor will be lost."
"Then this is not a big dinner, and this is definitely not a formal dress, right?" Zhou Yu took over the conversation with a smile. He could tell that Sun Ce had probably heard something wrong again, and ended up like this. As soon as it came out, it was like this, so what else could it do? Of course, I had to bite the bullet, and I couldn't let Sun Ce lose himself here.
Although Sun Ce has been embarrassed more than once or twice, he still has to wear less clothes, so this is not a formal dress.
"That's right." Chen Xi nodded and just gave each other a step.
"Wu Hou, please!" Chen Xi made a gesture of invitation, and then a group of people followed him in. This time, the guests followed the host, and Liu Bei didn't show any special behavior.
As Sun Ce arrived, the scattered guests also came quickly, well, specifically Lu Bu. Among the scattered guests, there was only one Lu Bu with his wife.
Now everyone was almost there, and under the guidance of the maid, Liu Bei's men and Jing Chu's men walked towards the banquet that had been prepared. Different from the previous situation of eating and drinking, this time it was a serious meal sharing. system, where one person has several cases per person.
As for the women, children, etc., they were arranged in another place, and Fan Jian helped to entertain them.
After looking at Sun Ce's subordinates, Chen Xi smacked his lips twice. There weren't many here, but they all could serve as the backbone, and there were several acquaintances among them.
Because it was a night banquet, and Sun Ce was invited, it was naturally impossible for the class to be too low. After Sun Ce took the seat, various music started playing, and then two groups of singers performed two short dances to warm up the atmosphere. After that, various dishes were served quickly, and the venue no longer had the same bullfighting feeling as before.
"Okay, let me toast you all. Let the past go by now. There is no need to chase after you." Zhou Yu stood up and raised his glass to everyone, especially nodding to Lu Bu. He was beaten by Lu Bu before. I feel dizzy and have no room to reason.
In fact, this banquet was just to use Chen Xi's venue to hold an apology banquet for Zhou Yu, otherwise why would Sun Ce have to spend so many precious seafood.
"Commander, wait a minute, I'll go find out." Zhao Yun interrupted immediately. Lu Bu led people to ambush Zhou Yu without Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun's son also suffered from a mental retardation halo. He didn't even know that this was Zhou Yu's apology banquet. .
"I have to go and find out more about it." Zhang Fei said in a muffled voice. No one under Lu Bu's leadership would take care of Zhang Fei, let alone Zhao Yun, who is the elder.
A group of people on the spot started to contact the backyard, and then a group of people came over in the backyard, so there was no need to drink the wine on the spot.
"Is this your preparation?" Sun Ce glanced at Chen Xi and hinted.
"No, I just didn't expect the matter to be so big." Chen Xi said after being silent for a while, and then went off in person. He persuaded a group of old ladies to leave, then wiped a handful of sweat and looked at Zhou Yu. A trace of gratitude appeared in Zhou Yu's eyes. meaning.
After so many years, this time is the most difficult for Zhou Yu, because other people can more or less reason with each other, but there is no way to reason with this group of people, even though Zhou Yu has repeatedly stated that the aura of mental retardation is a continuous innate suppression ability, not a continuous IQ. It has the ability to cause damage, but it can’t stand up to the disbelief of others!
