Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Theory of the Lord
"Is it about Liu Xuande or Yuan Gongli?" Xun Yu asked in an incomprehensible tone.
Xun Yue's expression changed slightly, and after a long moment, he said three words: "Liu Xuande."
"Then shouldn't you have thought of this a long time ago?" Xun Yu said: "After all, Liu Xuande came from a grassroots background. Although he asked Zhang to help him, it could not make up for his shortcomings. Weren't you still clear about Dong Zhuo at the beginning?"
At that time, Dong Zhuo was really in the right place at the right time. He was sitting on the power of the Western Qin Dynasty. He had more than 100,000 Xiliang soldiers who were like wolves and tigers, and he had as many fierce generals as Lu Bu, Hua Xiong, and Xu Rong.
He is not a strong enough warrior to stand alone.
Especially Xu Rong, his record in history is extremely strong. He defeated Sun Jian and Cao Cao in a row. If Dong Zhuo hadn't been stupid and didn't make good use of this general who is very good at defense, I am afraid that just one Xu Rong combined with Hulao Pass would be enough.
Lu Lianjun had a drink.
As for counselors, although Dong Zhuo lacked backbone counselors, with Li Ru, a monster who single-handedly brought chaos to the world, and Jia Xu, an old fox who secretly helped Li Ru, he really had no one to fear in terms of resourcefulness.
You can win good cards no matter how you play, and Dong Zhuo will be beaten to pieces. Four doubles and two kings come up and go out. How can you win if you play like this?
This is the disadvantage of a grassroots background. You are not determined enough and have never enjoyed anything. Once you live a luxurious life, you may lose your ambition and become content with the status quo.
After the Battle of Chibi, Liu Bei refused to return to Jingzhou. Didn't Zhou Yu use this trick to make Liu Bei submit obediently? If Zhuge Liang hadn't been quick-witted, and Liu Bei had been wandering for half his life and had a relatively firm mind, he would probably be the next Dong Zhuo.
"I have thought about it, so I have been hesitating whether to leave the mountain at that time. The world is tiring and chaotic, how can it be as free and refreshing as focusing on the mountains and rivers?" Xun Yue couldn't help but murmured as he recalled his inner struggle before leaving the mountain.
"But you still came out, didn't you?"
"Yes! After all, I still can't let go of my ambitions. Liu Hong and Liu Xie should not support me. I saw it back then. And among the remaining royal family members, they are all mediocre people. Only Liu Yu can see through it.
Unfortunately."
"Liu Yu is too weak." Before Xun Yue could continue, Xun Yu said what he wanted to say.
Xun Yue sighed and nodded slightly.
"Although Mr. Xuande has a very shallow foundation and many shortcomings, he has a good will and courage. Moreover, with two brothers who are enemies of thousands of people, and Chen Qun and Liu Ye assisting him, it is not impossible to dominate the world and realize my goal.
ambition."
"But he still disappointed you, didn't he? With Chen Qun here, you may not be able to change Liu Xuande's character." Xun Yu said calmly.
The Xun family and the Chen family have always played well, and Xun Yu also knows Chen Qun, the son of the current head of the Chen family, very well.
Although Xun Yue can completely suppress Chen Qun with his single-player ability, after all, Chen Qun came first and won Liu Bei's trust and reliance. Moreover, with Xun Yue's leisurely personality, he would not compete with Chen Qun at all. Therefore, Xun Yue was shaken.
Chen Qun's status cannot be changed, nor can Liu Bei's mind be changed.
Xun Yue was silent, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
"What about you? Liu Xie died, what do you think? Do you still support Cao Mengde as Duke of Zhou, and finally use his hand to revive the Han Dynasty?"
After a long time, Xun Yue came back to his senses and asked softly.
Speaking of this matter, Xun Yu also lowered his head like Xun Yue, and his expression became a little sad.
"The Han Dynasty's orthodoxy has been lost, but the Han Dynasty cannot be destroyed!" Xun Yu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said firmly.
"Xuan Degong may become the second Liu Xiu, but Cao Mengde will probably never become the second Zhou Gong!" Xun Yue shook his head slightly and said calmly.
"It all depends on human effort! Looking at the world now, only Cao Mengde is my last hope. What's more, he once pursued Dong Zhuo after he retreated. I am afraid he is the last hero of the Han Dynasty who is loyal to the Han Dynasty!"
Xun Yu had no choice now. There were only a few heroes in the world, and the ambitions of the Yuan brothers were well known. Among the remaining people, the only one Xun Yu could like was Cao Cao.
"That was in the past. Don't you still know what the situation of the Han Dynasty is now? Duke Zhou spits out his support, so there must be a king! The boy in Chang'an now has an unfair name and is just a puppet. How can he make Cao Cao
Convinced?"
Xun Yu was silent, but there was no despair on his face, but more determination.
"It seems that you still have some backup plans! But I'm afraid the world's famous family won't let you get what you want!" Xun Yue understood Xun Yu's thoughts as soon as he saw Xun Yu's expression, and sighed.
"Everything depends on human effort!" Xun Yu still said this.
"It seems that your worries are no less than mine! Why don't we make a bet?"
The best way to get rid of troubles is to find someone who is worse off than yourself, so that you won't feel uncomfortable by comparison. Xun Yue has this mentality now.
"What to bet on?"
"Bet on who you belong to in the pass." A glimmer of light flashed in Xun Yue's eyes.
Xun Yu frowned: "I bet on my lord Cao Mengde, what about you?"
"Yuan Gongli!" Xun Yue's lips curled up.
"What?" Xun Yu stood up in shock.
He knew very well that Xun Yue's character would never be unreasonable, and such an answer showed that Xun Yue definitely knew some very important things that he did not know.
"Although Li Que and Guo Si are both reckless men, they are not easy to deal with. What's more, with the heroes of Xiliang and Liu Xuande on the side to restrain them, how can Yuan Gongli take Guanzhong? Yizhou is not that easy to get out of!"
After hearing this, Xun Yue smiled casually and said nothing.
"Cousin, do you know any news?" The magnitude of this matter was completely beyond Xun Yu's imagination. Xun Yu still couldn't hold it back and asked.
"It's useless for you to know this, so I don't need to tell you. But you should know who I am. I think Duke Cao of Xuzhou can give more to my master this time!" Xun Yue's tone was slightly frivolous.
.
After hearing this, Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, then he realized and smiled bitterly: "Cousin! If I didn't know who you are, I would really suspect that you are lying to me."
"Okay! Now that things are like this, then Yu will make the decision on behalf of my lord. Pengcheng County in Xuzhou and the two previously occupied counties in Yuzhou will be returned to Liu Xuande! However, I hope my cousin will go back and explain the interests to Liu Xuande. He must keep an eye on Yuan
Highway, we can't let him get stronger. Otherwise, this person will be really hard to deal with!"
Xun Yue showed a satisfied expression on his face and said with a smile: "Of course, my lord also understands that Yuan Jiujiu is a far greater threat than Cao Gong. Naturally, both of us should work together to fight against Jiangdong."
Then the two sides exchanged pleasantries again, talking about past events and governance experience.
When Xun Yue was about to leave, Xun Yu suddenly said: "Cousin! What you are most optimistic about is not Liu Xuande, but Yuan Gongliu, right?"
Xun Yue smiled and said nothing when faced with this question, shook his head and turned to leave.
