With a lot of thoughts on his mind, Li Li suddenly asked, "By the way, Zijing, where did you plan to go this time?"

"Oh, I wanted to go to Juchao with my family to join Zhou Yu." Lu Su responded.

"Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin?" Li Li's expression was shocked, and he muttered in surprise.

Lu Su nodded in response, and said in surprise, "Elder brother has also heard of the name of Gongjin? Could it be that elder brother is going south to Yangzhou to find talents and visit sages?"

"Oh, I've heard of Zhou Yu's name before." Li Li nodded with a strange expression, "I heard that Zhou Yu was very smart since he was a child, and he was called a 'Luoyang prodigy', so I've heard of it too. As for him What will happen to him when he grows up is unknown. Since Zijing knows Zhou Yu, he must know something about him, but what is he like?"

After finishing speaking, the corners of Li Li's mouth twitched involuntarily, and his eyes were a little erratic.

Obviously, it doesn't feel good to talk nonsense with your eyes open. He obviously knows Zhou Yu very well, but he has to pretend not to know at this moment. Otherwise, if Lu Su asks, he won't be able to give a reasonable explanation.But this feeling of deceiving his brother was so uncomfortable that he even despised himself and used the corners of his mouth to twitch to cover up his guilt.

Chapter 512 Ice Fire Tempering Sees Real Gold

The night is getting darker.

The bright moon hangs in the sky and the sky is full of stars, and the clear water is clear and dyed the world of mortals.

Among the green mountains and clear water, beside the bamboo forest beside the river.

Li Li and Lu Su held a jar of wine each, looked up at the night sky, looked down at the green water, and had a heart-to-heart talk.

"Gongjin is a tall man with a suave appearance, a mind as broad as a river, and talents as overflowing as a lake."

When Li Li asked about Zhou Yu's talent, Lu Su spoke highly of him, as if Zhou Yu was a rare outstanding person in the world.

This shows that Lu Su admired Zhou Yu very much, and at this moment he really intended to recommend a talented person to Li Li.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Su continued to say: "Zhou Yu was born in the Zhou family, a powerful family. Although his ancestors are not as good as the Yuan family in Ruyang, they are not much inferior. The family is well-off, and I am actually one of the few noble families in Yangzhou.

In detail, Gong Jin and her elder brother are still the same age, 21 years old now.He is familiar with ancient and modern historical books, well versed in the art of war and strategy, proficient in the six arts, both civil and military, especially good at rhythm;Now, he has taken the position of the chief of the nest for several years, hibernating and waiting, sitting and watching the changes in the current situation, with lofty ambitions in his heart,,,,,,"

"Zijing, I can tell that you admire Zhou Gongjin very much. Are you two familiar?" Li Li suddenly interjected.

Lu Su didn't care about Li Li's interruption of his speech, and nodded happily after hearing the sound, "A year ago, when Gong Jin was the head of the nest, because of the rampant banditry in the territory, he organized the young and strong to train into an army to attack Robbers. There was a shortage of food and grass on the way. He heard that Yudi’s family was rich, so he took people to Yudi’s house to borrow food. At that time, Yudi saw that he was tall and handsome, and his equipment was extraordinary, so he readily lent him two warehouses of grain at home, worth about three thousand shi. Since then, Gongjin and I have often exchanged letters, and we have walked around a few times.

This time, I moved my family away from Yuan Shuzhi, and I planned to go to Juchao to live temporarily, and I will make further calculations after I find the Ming Lord.I didn't expect to meet my elder brother as soon as I got out of danger. Yesterday my grandmother said that after arriving at Bufu, everything will be arranged by my elder brother.However, Brother Yu still wants to visit Gongjin.I wonder if my brother can go with me? "

Li Li looked slightly startled, then turned his head to look at the graceful and calm river, and asked softly: "I understand Zijing's intentions, but I don't know how Zhou Gongjin's talent compares with that of a virtuous brother?"

"Hehehe!" Lu Su smiled happily: "Even if the elder brother doesn't ask, the foolish brother will still say it. When it comes to the art of war and strategy, Gongjin is a hundred times as good as me; when it comes to leading troops and making decisions before the battle, Gongjin is a hundred times as good as me; when talking about government affairs and the ability to govern the world Gongjin is also ten times better than me. Therefore, Zhou Gongjin is above me in all aspects of Wen Tao and Wushu. He is really a rare talent in the world. If my brother can persuade Gongjin to serve as an assistant, he is far better than ten Lu Sus. !"

"Zi Jing's words are wrong!" Li Li immediately shook his head, and said decisively: "I have a loyal brother like Zi Jing, even if I exchange ten Zhou Gongjin, I will not change it!"

"Brother!" Lu Su was extremely moved when he heard this.But the expression on his face was very anxious, which could be described as having mixed feelings.

However, before Lu Su could speak, Li Li immediately waved his hand and said, "Zijing, don't worry. Just listen to me. To tell you the truth, Zijing, I have heard of this Zhou Yu before, and I know that he is a genius in the world, and he is also a He is a handsome man with both civil and military skills. This time I am going south to Yangzhou, I really intend to visit Zhou Yu, and if possible, I would like to take him under my command.

However, Zijing should know that I have a bad reputation among the powerful gentry, and I am even regarded as an enemy by them.Zhou Yu did have the ability to manage the world, and I admire his talent very much, but he came from a famous family after all.Even though I invite you with all sincerity, it is still unclear whether he is willing to assist me in my great career.

But things in the world always have to try to know the result, so I will not give up lightly.After we return to Bufu and arrange everything, Zijing and I will go to Juchao to meet Zhou Yu. I hope the trip will be worthwhile! "

"It's so good, it's so good!" Lu Su nodded repeatedly.

After he calmed down a bit, he thought about it and said: "What my brother said is not unreasonable. To be honest, the achievements that my brother has made over the years are enough to be recorded in the annals of history, but the powerful nobles in various places are quite critical of my brother. Consider him the second Dong Zhuo. The reason is that in Xiliang, his elder brother reduced the servants, maidservants and real estate land under the name of the gentry tyrants, as well as the payment of remuneration to retinues and servants, and the clear restriction of the property owned by the major families. The number of servants and retinues. These decrees undoubtedly touched the fundamental interests of the powerful gentry, just like pulling teeth out of their mouths, picking bones and gouging out flesh. This is absolutely unacceptable to them.

To tell you the truth, Brother Yu also had prejudices against this before, because my Lu family can be regarded as a well-off noble family.According to the decree promulgated by my brother, my Lu family will also reduce some retinues and maids, and return hundreds of miles of fields and several houses.But this time the whole family moved away from their hometown, which made me realize that the decree my brother enforced was not wrong.

In this chaotic world, even though the powerful gentry were forced to relocate from their homeland, they could rely on the money and food in their hands to purchase a large amount of land and real estate again, while ordinary people would have nothing if they were forced to leave their homeland.At the same time, the people who are most vulnerable to the impact of the war, and those who suffer the most are the common people, because they have no ability to protect themselves, let alone family guards to protect their existing property.

In this way, the government needs to re-distribute life-saving money and food, corresponding land, as well as matching cattle and farm tools to them, and help them rebuild their homes if conditions permit.Only in this way can order be gradually restored and the troubled times can be put to rest.But to achieve this, the land and houses they wantonly annexed must be taken out from the mouths of the powerful gentry, otherwise the people can only start from scratch, still have no clothes and food, and the world will not be completely stable down. "

What Lu Su said touched Li Li's heart. That's what he thought about when he began to recuperate.

However, in the affairs of the world, there must be gains and losses. Any government order that is beneficial to ordinary people will inevitably damage the self-interests of some vested interests.This is a contradiction that can never be reconciled, and it has been like this since ancient times, unless,,, everyone is a saint who has no desires and no desires.

After the night talk, Li Li and Lu Su went back to the tent to rest together, but he couldn't sleep for a long time because of tossing and turning, so he quietly got up and walked out of the tent.

In fact, without Lu Su recommending Zhou Yu, Li Li would never forget the well-known Mei Zhou Lang.

Although Zhou Yu hadn't made a fortune at this time and was still an unknown person, how could Li Li, who is a descendant, forget the most dazzling wise men in this troubled world!But, so what if I can't forget it, if I'm in a troubled world and can't be used by me, I will become an enemy sooner or later, and there is no third choice.

Walking in the bamboo forest, Li Li had many things on his mind, and many troubles that he had no clue about.

The assassination of Bufu caused him to struggle back from the gate of hell once again, and escaped from a desperate situation. Fortunately, it also made him reflect on himself again.

It is impossible for people to be so lucky forever, and everything can happen once and never again, and Li Li already has a deep understanding of this at this time.

In the Battle of Dongshan Pass three years ago, Li Li was killed by five hundred archers under Ma Teng's command, forcing him to turn over and fall off his horse.That time was the first time he had close contact with death after his rebirth at the end of the Han Dynasty. He passed by dangerously and almost died young.

During the trip to Jizhou, he was trapped by Yuan Xi when his plan was successful, and he was exposed to the arrows. In the end, he was able to save his life by relying on the golden dragon soft armor that Li Zhi gave him in the early years.This is the second time that Li Li survived a desperate situation. He was lucky to escape the catastrophe.

The assassination of Bufu this time was the third time that Li Li was in a desperate situation, and it was a real killing blow. There was almost no possibility of surviving. No matter who fell into this catastrophe, it would be very difficult to survive.

But he, Li Li, survived by luck, calling it a fluke is not an exaggeration.And the reason why he was able to escape from death was all due to his ability to learn the submergence technique as a navy in his previous life.It is precisely because he has developed excellent diving skills in his previous life and has been drifting in strong winds and waves all year round, so that after falling into the torrent this time, he was not at a loss, nor was he afraid, nor did he lose his courage and belief in survival.

Trapped in the stormy torrent, Xiahou Dun, who was clinging to his right leg, was beaten by several big waves and disappeared.But he, Li Li, was able to protect his body with the help of the two short daggers in the middle of the boots, avoiding the rocky cliffs in the turning of the river time and time again, drifting with the current, and finally passed out from exhaustion.

As a result, Li Li was lucky.His tenacious fighting spirit and never giving up on life prevented him from being engulfed by the torrent, until he was rescued by Lu Su's subordinates, and he escaped from the gate of hell again.

For the past three days, Li Li has been immersed in the joy of escaping death, glad that he is still alive, and glad that he survived another catastrophe.And this kind of rejoicing is actually the most profound reflection since his rebirth, and it is also the first time in these years that he has comprehensively reviewed the bits and pieces he has experienced before, and why he has repeatedly encountered life and death catastrophes.

Today, three days have passed, and Li Li has also realized some experience and lessons from self-reflection, realizing a sublimation of his own thoughts, making him gradually disappear with a lot of emotional side, and transforming him into a true iron-blooded overlord who looks at everything rationally .

He used to be more or less in awe of the contemporaries and overlords he was familiar with in his heart. Although he himself did not want to admit it, there was always such a subconscious consciousness in his mind.Therefore, he seldom kills these so-called famous generals and celebrities who have left their names in history, and every time he tries to subdue them for his own use. The most typical one is Wen Hou Lu Bu.The reason why he let Lu Bu go was not just to use Lu Bu's hand to disrupt the situation in the Central Plains, because he subconsciously didn't want to see such a powerful man die in his own hands.

However, the joint assassination of Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan brothers made Li Li finally awakened, and deeply analyzed his unknown inner world.

It is also from this moment that the soul from the later generations is completely fused with this body, and there is no afterlife from now on, let alone "Li Zhengfeng", only Li Li and Li Wenchang who are fighting for hegemony in troubled times!

Chapter 513

The night was dark, and the banks of the river were filled with mist.

On the surface of the sparkling river, the mist rises, covering the graceful and quiet river water, like a dream.

After three days of precipitation, the river water has changed from a scourge to a delicate and innocent girl, crystal clear, peaceful and gentle.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!"

In the clear clear water, sleepless Li Li dived nearly [-] meters in one breath, and then floated on his back.After he breathed a sigh of relief, he exerted his strength again and swam against the current to the upstream pool.

In midsummer, it is very comfortable to get rid of the shackles of the whole body and be in the slightly cool water, refreshed physically and mentally, and free.

"call"

When he surfaced again, Li Li took a deep breath and slowly swam to the opposite bank.
