Those who are capable work harder and do their part.
Lu Su saw that Long Xiang was a little proud, and suddenly thought of Yuan Shu's family members, and reminded him in a low voice: "By the way, Yun Qi asked Feng and Cao, the two governors, to be responsible for the security of the city. What is the plan of the Prime Minister's Office? If they don't send someone to take care of it, they may not be able to do it.
appropriate"
The Prime Minister's Mansion is the residence where Yuan Shu's family is housed. The real meaning of "care" in Lu Su's words is surveillance.
There are talented people in the government such as Yang Hong and Lu Mian. They had a good impression of Sun Ce in Shouchun. If they ignore it at this time, there will be hidden dangers, which will make Feng Zhong and Cao Xing's work difficult.
Long Xiang frowned and explained: "I originally wanted Hao Meng to serve as a guard, but after much thought, I always felt that it was inappropriate. Firstly, Hao Meng is familiar with city defense affairs and should not waste his talents in the Prime Minister's Office. Secondly, after all, I
Having served as soldiers under Yuan Shu, it is inappropriate to blatantly place them under house arrest."
"That's true, outsiders will say you deceived the Lord." Lu Su nodded in agreement.
Long Xiang shook his head gently: "I am a nobody, so I will scold others if they are scolded. I just don't want to waste a general, so I will guard it like a guard against thieves. I will let Uncle Zhong work harder later."
"What about Luo Yicheng, who was under the command of the Governor of the Tang Dynasty? I remember you said that this man is very smart. Why not transfer him to be in charge of the Prime Minister's Office?"
Long Xiang did not expect that Lu Su would think of him. Although Luo Yicheng was indeed a good choice, it was a pity that he had not returned from Xuzhou.
Since his whereabouts could not be exposed at this time, Long Xiang found an excuse: "Now the Huai River line is controlled by Yan Xiang. I was worried that Cao Cao would be unfavorable to Hefei, so I asked Luo Yicheng to sneak into Shouchun and work carefully. As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger in a hundred battles."
"Yunqi knows how to make good use of people."
Lu Su nodded in affirmation and said: "It seems that I can only work hard for Governor Feng."
Long Xiang and Lu Su had just reached a tacit understanding, and Liu Ye, who was listening on the side, suddenly spoke.
"If Sima Long is trustworthy, I can recommend a general worthy of an important task."
Long Xiang was overjoyed: "Oh? How can I not trust Mr. Ziyang's recommendation? You just praised me for being trustworthy in employing people. Please tell me quickly."
Liu Ye cupped his hands and replied: "Ye has a nephew-in-law, whose surname is Qin and whose name is Yilu. He is an honest and loyal man. He once commanded Yuan Shu's imperial army, and he is currently at home."
"Qin Yilu? Hao Meng actually mentioned it, but I was worried that your husband had ulterior motives, so I didn't call him to do the work. Can it really be used?"
Long Xiang looked at Liu Ye sincerely and said in his heart that Cao Cao and I had a grudge against killing his father, and Qin Yilu had a grudge against Cao Cao for taking his wife. If he sincerely stayed and worked, he might be able to conquer Xu Capital in the future and help the cuckold realize his dream.
"Liu Ye's family stayed here as guests, and Sima Long treated them with courtesy. He didn't think about where to go for a while, so he simply stayed with his son to accompany him. We will discuss it two years later. During this period, we must do something to help Hefei."
Liu Ye narrated with a bitter look on his face, but Long Xiang was elated when he heard it. He said to himself that as long as you are willing to stay, our contract will be renewed after it is signed. If you don't want to extend the contract, it will be three years and three years.
Long Xiang said happily: "Very good, the craftsman camp is quite hard. Looking at Ziyang's face, I will put him in the cavalry camp first. Cao Xing and General Qin are in the same robe, so they should get along very well."
"Thank you, Long Sima, for taking care of me."
Liu Ye bowed his hands, and then sighed leisurely: "I think Liu Zitai didn't listen to me and was instigated to get the grain for the sake of food. Now Sun Ce has stolen his home. He is out with 30,000 lone troops. He may not be able to fight back to Lujiang."
"
Long Xiang smiled and joked: "Mr. Ziyang's words are nice. It's his loss if Liu Xun doesn't listen. Not only do I like to hear what you say, but all the generals also seem to like it."
Liu Ye shook his head slightly: "Well, this is the gap between Liu Xun and Long Sima. Even if he doesn't fall into Sun Ce's plan, he is destined to lose to you in Huainan."
Long Xiang clasped his fists and said modestly: "Stop boasting. Sun Ce will be here tomorrow afternoon. Sir, please ask General Qin to come quickly."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Liu Ye bowed his hands and saluted, turned around and asked Lu Su, "Do you want to go back, Zijing? You just happen to be riding back home with me."
There were too many people in Hefei at this time and there were not enough houses, so half of Liu Ye's family was placed in the Chief Registrar's Mansion by Lu Su. The two were neighbors in the same courtyard at this time.
"good"
Lu Su was about to agree, but Long Xiang cut him off.
"Zi Yang goes to the car and waits first. Zijing and I still have a few words to say, so we will only be delayed for a moment."
"That's fine."
Seeing Liu Ye walking out of the main hall, Lu Su looked back and saw Long Xiang unloading the pouch, and he smiled and joked: "What a delicate pouch. It seems like a happy event is not far away. Do you want me to find Mrs. Qiao to play matchmaker?"
"Uh-huh?"
Seeing that Long Xiang was suddenly stuck, Lu Su continued to laugh and added: "I heard that Miss Qiao is very smart. Yun Qi has really good vision."
"No, how do you know?" Long Xiang finally smoothed his tongue.
"Yun Qi asked Yuan Shu's daughter to replace him, but he left Miss Qiao Er. Isn't your little thought obvious?" Lu Su smiled leisurely.
Long Xiang scratched his head in embarrassment: "Is it so obvious?"
Lu Su did not comment, he came forward to take a closer look, and exclaimed: "Miss Qiao, who was raised in a boudoir, actually has such good craftsmanship, I can only say that Yun Qi has good taste."
Long Xiang became more and more confused as he listened, and quickly explained: "No. Zijing misunderstood. This is not a gift from the second lady. I just want to ask you, does the woman have any other meaning in giving the pouch?"
"What?"
Lu Su was shocked when he heard this and thought to himself, Long Yunqi, besides Miss Qiao Er, do you have Yanfu?
He stroked his beard, looked at it playfully, nodded, and said thoughtfully: "A woman giving a purse to a man of the same age is a euphemistic expression of love. Yun Qi has already worn it on her waist, and you are testing me in return?"
"ah?"
Long Xiang hurriedly took off the belt and explained with a bitter look on his face: "I really don't know."
Long Xiang actually didn't lie. He lived a long life in the future world, but because he was working as a civil engineer and lacked love experience, he only knew that men gave women bags and perfume, while his girlfriend's gifts were razors, watches and other items.
Traveling back to a poor family in the late Han Dynasty, Long Xiang quickly joined the army and stayed with a group of old men all day long. He had no idea how men and women expressed their love in this era, so he came to ask the knowledgeable Lu Su for advice.
"I really don't know? What is this tiger-striped pouch?"
Seeing Long Xiang's sincere answer, Lu Su continued to ask with curiosity, but he felt something was wrong halfway through.
Long Xiang slapped his forehead and hesitated, and finally had to confess: "It was a gift from the eldest lady. I didn't know it was so serious, and I didn't react at all at the time. Is it okay to go back now?"
"Miss? Go back?"
Lu Su frowned and shook his head. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he said: "Miss Qiao, I heard that she is also stunningly beautiful. Since she is so enamored of her, why would you return her? You just happened to be married."
Long Xiang argued quickly: "How can that be done? I like the second young lady."
"I didn't say that I wouldn't let you marry the second young lady. The legend of Emperor E's daughter is passed down to the world. This reason is just to stop Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. Men in the world will be attracted by the beauty of women. Could it be that the rumors in the market are wrong and that Miss Qiao's appearance is not good?" Lu Su stroked his beard.
rhetorical question.
Long Xiang raised his eyes, shook his head and said, "I didn't take a closer look before, but I think she should be on par with the second lady. That Empress E is just a legend, I have never thought about it."
Lu Su patted Long Xiang's shoulder and comforted him: "Those who are capable work harder and must do their part. You are not even afraid of Sun Ce, so why are you afraid of marrying another woman?"
