Lu Xuan's expression was serious, his eyes were more serious than ever before, and he said: "Reputation is very important and is the foundation of life. If an ordinary person is capricious, it doesn't matter, because the scope of influence is very small."
"As the leader of a party, if you have a capricious personality, wanton calculations, wanton betrayal, and unscrupulous means for profit, then it won't work."
"You influence all the generals under your command, all the civil servants under your command, and countless people."
"You can be as cunning as a fox, you can be ruthless and decisive, you can be headstrong, and you can even have small quirks. These are nothing, because they are not fundamental flaws. However, betrayal at every turn, using the oath of a mountain alliance as a fart, and using faith as toilet paper, that's not okay. ”
"As the leader of one party, you are very capable and can suppress all your subordinates."
"But what happens after you die?"
"You yourself are a capricious person. If you ask your old subordinates to be loyal and filial, it will make the whole room laugh. Therefore, you are capricious, and the consequences will be the same for the people below."
"Even though your hands and eyes are all-powerful, you temporarily suppressed everyone. After you die, some of your old subordinates and generals will follow suit."
Lu Xuan put one hand on the desk, his eyes sharp.
That look made Chen Gong's heart tremble.
Kick! Kick!
Chen Gong took two steps back, his mind turbulent, and he did not dare to look directly into Lu Xuan's eyes.
Lu Xuan continued: "The sky is murderous, and the stars are changing; the earth is murderous, and dragons and snakes rise from the ground; people are murderous, and the earth is turned upside down. The world is in chaos, and everyone is fighting for survival."
"Many people know that the Han Dynasty will be destroyed. Some people will choose to endure the consequences and slowly usurp the throne."
"But I won't usurp it."
"The country I want must be captured by me with one shot and one shot."
"This is the right way to win the country."
"Those who usurp the throne will eventually be usurped. Because you have set a precedent for usurping the throne, someone will naturally usurp the throne. So what I want, I will not rely on betrayal to get it. I will not sacrifice my faith in exchange for these things. "
"What I want must be fought for by myself. So I refuse your self-righteous arrangement."
Lu Xuan stared at Chen Gong, his eyes bursting with intense light, and said: "Chen Gong, I say this, do you understand?"
Gudong!
Chen Gong swallowed his saliva.
He looked at Lu Xuan, who was only in his twenties, and was shocked as never before.
He didn't expect that Lu Xuan would say such words.
Surprising.
Surprising.
Chen Gong licked his dry lips, smiled, and said, "Shijun Lu, you are such a fool."
Lu Xuan shrugged, looking indifferent, and said: "Foolish people are lucky to be stupid. God knows whether they are stupid or not."
"It's not mine, what's the use of it?"
"According to your statement, your Yanzhou clan respects me, and Yanzhou belongs to me in name. However, the governance of Yanzhou is in the hands of your Yanzhou clan, and you are the emperor of the land."
"I would rather not have this situation."
"What I, Lu Xuan, want is complete surrender, not betrayal when you feel unhappy and feel that your interests have been harmed. That is impossible. Under my command, it is a dragon and you can control it for me, and it is a tiger. Just lie down for me."
Chen Gong was even more shocked.
At this moment, Chen Gong suddenly understood why Lu Xuan was able to rise rapidly and completely dominate the land of Yangzhou.
Lu Xuan acted on his own.
This is the foundation of Lu Xuan.
Chen Gong's guess at Lu Xuan failed, he smiled miserably and said, "When Lu Shijun rejected my arrangement, did you plan to kill me, or did you plan to hand me over to Cao Cao?"
"If you don't kill, you won't surrender."
An intriguing look appeared on Lu Xuan's face.
Chen Gong didn't understand for a moment and asked, "What does Lu Shijun mean?"
Lu Xuan sat down again and asked: "Now that Cao Cao and I are joining forces to attack Lu Bu from both sides, does Mr. Chen think Lu Bu can stop it?"
"Can't stop it!"
Chen Gong answered truthfully.
In front of Lu Xuan, there was no point in making excuses, so Chen Gong simply told the truth.
Lu Xuan chuckled and asked, "Since Lu Bu must be defeated, is Mr. Chen willing to die with Lu Bu?"
"I don't want to."
Chen Gong answered again.
Lu Xuan's eyes were deep and he said, "In that case, I'll give you a chance. Will Mr. Chen come and work under me?"
Chen Gong was stunned.
He was even more surprised. He didn't expect that Lu Xuan had attacked him first and had a bone in the back of his head, and now he was recruiting him.
Chen Gong calmed down and asked, "Lu Shijun, aren't you afraid that I will betray you?"
Lu Xuan confidently said: "Betrayal requires a price. If you are willing to pay a sufficient price, you can betray. People like Mr. Chen also have certain value and use. What's more, if you are not in Yanzhou, I will What are you afraid of?"
Chen Gong was still surprised by Lu Xuan's words. After thinking about it, he suddenly asked, "If Lu Bu surrenders, will Lu Shijun use it?"
"Won't!"
Lu Xuan shook his head.
Chen Gong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?"
Lu Xuan said: "First, Lu Bu is a domestic slave with three surnames known to the world. If I take in such a person, I will encourage the people under my command to betray. Therefore, I will not do it. I will even kill Lu Bu and let everyone People know what happens to betrayers.”
"Secondly, while Lu Bu is alive, I cannot recruit his subordinates."
"When Lu Bu is here, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao will be bound by Lu Bu's generals. The dead Lu Bu is the best Lu Bu. Even though he is good at cavalry and very strong, his dead value is greater."
"Third, if Lu Bu is killed, everyone in the world will know about my strength, Lu Xuan, and I will be powerful in the world from now on. If Lu Bu is surrendered, people will think that Lu Bu may not be the one I really defeated. I will use Lu Bu to establish my power."
Lu Xuan said: "It's a very simple truth, does Mr. Chen understand it?"
Chen Gong blinked and said, "I still don't understand. Lu Bu and I both betrayed, isn't it the same?"
"no the same!"
A look of contempt appeared in Lu Xuan's eyes, and he said: "It's not that I look down on Mr. Chen, it's that you left Yanzhou, without the support of the Yanzhou gentry, and with only your own wisdom left, how much trouble can you make?"
"If you follow me and have a future, and you betray me, who can give you these?"
"You betrayed Cao Cao first, then Lu Bu, and you betray me again in the future. Is there any place for you in the world?"
"Lu Bu has martial arts skills and is invincible. Can you do it? When Lu Bu is angry, he can kill someone with blood in five steps. Can you? Lu Bu is a warrior. He is not afraid of death if he is provoked. You are a scholar. What can you do if you are provoked? Woolen cloth?"
"All you can do is be patient. So, why can't I use you?"
Lu Xuan talked eloquently.
For Lu Xuan, Chen Gong has a certain value, so Lu Xuan is willing to keep it.
Chen Gong looked at Lu Xuan with a hint of fear and awe. Lu Xuan had such a terrifying scheming mind.
What a profound calculation.
In other words, Lu Xuan saw him clearly. If he loses the support of the Yanzhou clan, he will lose his reliance and can only be Lu Xuan's sword.
Because no one else will use him.
Chen Gong was still unwilling to give in. He had always been arrogant and refused to admit defeat. He said again: "Lu Shijun, I still have a problem."
Lu Xuandao: "Mr. Chen, please speak."
Chen Gong said solemnly: "Lu Shijun is not afraid of me. What if I go back to see Lu Bu and persuade him to leave Yanzhou? I will leave with Lu Bu. Lu Shijun's idea is to draw water with a bamboo basket but nothing will happen."
Lu Xuan smiled half-heartedly and asked, "Can Lu Bu listen to the advice? Even if Lu Bu listens to the advice, where can he go?"
