Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

"Furthermore, in the future, Yuan Shu will have Yangzhou as his foundation. It may be difficult for Jingzhou to stop Yuan Shu's advance again."

Zhuge Xuan couldn't help but nodded, Liu Biao couldn't beat Yuan Shu before, and he couldn't beat Yuan Shu in the future.

Li Yi glanced at Zhuge Xuan, and said again: "Yuan Shu has caused a lot of trouble in Nanyang, and I am the new Nanyang prefect. This relationship can be described as sharp, but I went south alone, and along the way, Sun Ce was eliminated because of personal grudges. There was no more embarrassment, after that, outside Xinye City, Ji Ling ián zhàn won consecutive victories, and the situation was very good, but because he saw me, he immediately withdrew his troops."

Li Yi sighed, shook his head and said, "I have a certain relationship with the Yuan family, but Mr. Zhuge thinks that Yuan Shu really did this only for the so-called relationship?"

Zhuge Xuan was also considered a smart person, and he immediately understood what Li Yi was referring to. He felt bitter and couldn't open his mouth to speak nonsense, so he could only say in a slightly hoarse voice, "This is to make friends with Marquis Xiang so that he can plot Jingzhou in the future?"

Li Yi smiled, neither affirming nor denying, and continued to say: "No matter what Yuan Shu intends, but the clean is self-clear, and all the previous things are just Yuan Shu's wishful thinking."

"However, if I ask him to send someone to me, Yuan Shu will definitely agree. This will become a relationship, and the relationship is really unclear."

Zhuge Xuan opened his mouth, but didn't say a word, and his face gradually darkened. From what he heard, Li Yi almost clearly refused, telling him that this matter was impossible.

Just when Zhugexuan felt that the sky was dark and he was about to be completely desperate, he heard Li Yi say: "So, sir, if you want to save people, you have to think about a more proper regulation. I don't want to let people talk about it."

Originally, Zhuge Xuan seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and his body collapsed, but when he heard Li Yi's words, he turned his head violently, and even the joints made a creaking sound of interlacing friction. Li Yi's teeth were sore for a while, but Zhuge Xuan didn't seem to notice it, his eyes were filled with anticipation, surprise, and trepidation as he asked, "Xiang, Lord Xiang agrees?"

Zhuge Xuan's voice trembled, and his tone was extremely unconfident. He was afraid that he was hallucinating, and he was also afraid that Li Yi would reject him again.

Li Yi smiled slightly, that smile was as gentle as the sunrise, nodded and said: "Yes, I agreed?"

"what?"

Zhuge Xuan exclaimed, and sat up directly, holding Li Yi's arm tightly with one hand, looking at Li Yi in disbelief, as if he was afraid that Li Yi would run away.

It's no wonder that Zhuge Xuan lost his composure, it was just a short conversation, but accidents happened one after another, and his heart couldn't bear it anymore.

Li Yi patted Zhuge Xuan's arm lightly, signaling him not to be nervous, and then repeated very intimately: "I agree."

"This, this, ah! No, the lower official has lost his composure, return it, please forgive me, Marquis Xiang!"

Zhuge Xuan finally came back to his senses this time, and hurriedly let go of Li Yi's arm, but he still had mixed feelings in his heart.

Before that, Li Yi's attitude had been unclear, and Zhuge Xuan's heart was hanging up and down, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit of resentment.

Just now Li Yi said the biggest embarrassment again, which in Zhuge Xuan's view is completely useless, but Li Yi pulled him back when he was "near death", so ups and downs, Zhuge Xuan hadn't collapsed yet, he could already be regarded as having strong nerves.

Fortunately, the final result is still acceptable, and Zhuge Xuan's thoughts have also changed somewhat.

Originally, this was a helpless, even humiliating transaction to send a daughter away for survival. Even if Li Yi agreed, Zhuge Xuan might remember the favor, but he would not feel much gratitude from his heart.

But now, when even Zhuge Xuan couldn't find a reason for Li Yi to agree, Li Yi unexpectedly agreed. Under such circumstances, Zhuge Xuan felt that if he was not grateful, he would be no different from a beast ?

"Xiangxianghou"

Zhuge Xuan thanked Li Yi again, because he was so choked up that he couldn't speak, Li Yi stretched out his hand to help, but took the opportunity to look at Dian Wei, Dian Wei thought Li Yi was praising his previous speech, and couldn't help but Secretly proud, he straightened his chest muscles to Li Yi proudly.

Li Yi frowned, very speechless, this guy couldn't see such an obvious wink, if it was Guo Jia, he would definitely stand up at this time and shout "My lord must not", and then there are a lot of blah blah The reason directly made Zhuge Xuan feel guilty to death.

Failing to get an assist from Dian Wei, Li Yi had no choice but to give up. Anyway, he had already gained a lot. He helped Zhuge Xuan, and two lines of tears were already hanging on the latter's face.

Li Yi said in relief: "Don't be impatient, calm down first."

"Yes"

Zhuge Xuan choked up, wiped the corners of his eyes again, and tried not to ask Li Yi how he planned to ask Yuan Shu for someone, but said: "Xianghou takes good care of my Zhuge family, but afterwards, what should Xianghou do? ?”

Zhuge Xuan was really worried. He was afraid that Li Yi would be suspected by Liu Biao afterwards, and he was also worried that Li Yi would really be colluding with Yuan Shu. However, if he had to say it, he was more worried about the former. After all, it was Li Yi who actually rescued his family. Yi, not Liu Biao.

Li Yi pondered for a moment, shook his head and smiled wryly, "I can only act as secretly as possible, and then take a step and watch, alas."

Zhuge Xuan's heart sank, there was nothing he could do.

Ordinarily at this time, he should say something, so that Li Yi should protect himself and not do anything for his family, but he really couldn't say that. As for pretending, Li Yi has treated him like this, so how can he cheat? ?

As a result, Zhuge Xuan felt more and more guilty, and wanted to make up for Li Yi, but then remembered that he really had nothing to repay Li Yi except those two nieces.

While Zhuge Xuan was still struggling, Li Yi had already made a decision, and said, "Well, tomorrow I will write a letter to Yuan Shu, just say cough cough, I have an appointment with the two Miss Zhuge, right? Those who planned to go to Yuzhang to meet them in person, but unexpectedly, there was an accident, fortunately, Yuan Shu protected them well, and I sent a thousand gold to express my gratitude, how do you think this is?"

Zhuge Xuan nodded again and again. Li Yi said this very much to Yuan Shu's face, and he didn't mention at all that he was kidnapped by Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu would definitely agree.

As for the brothers Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Xuan's family members, although Li Yi didn't mention it deliberately, as long as Yuan Shu's brain is not out of his mind, he will not deliberately keep Li Yi's "brother-in-law" on hold.

In this way, Zhugexuan knew that the matter of saving people was settled, and he bowed to Li Yi again: "The arrangement of the Marquis Xiang is very appropriate, and I have no objection at all, but I just made it difficult for the Marquis Xiang. The official doesn't know how to repay Xianghou in case, and I feel really ashamed!"

Li Yi laughed, pulled Zhuge Xuan's arm and said, "Don't mention the word repayment, after all, you and I are considered a family."

Zhuge Xuan was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he realized that he cupped his hands in embarrassment. He didn't want to borrow the two nieces at all, and then he really meant to be the elder Li Yi.

In Zhugexuan's eyes, Li Yi's character has been infinitely improved, but he himself used his niece to lure Li Yi to help. This method is really not up to the table.

Even, Zhuge Xuan felt that Li Yi hesitated for so long at first, probably because he despised his way of doing things. If he had asked directly without mentioning his niece, Li Yi probably agreed a long time ago.

Fortunately, the end result is not bad.

Although the two nieces promised to Li Yi and lost a chance to marry, but for Li Yi's dedication to this matter, one must not complain!

Moreover, Li Yi is such a righteous person. Even if his two nieces are with him, even if they have no status, Li Yi will definitely not bully them. If his brother is alive in heaven, he will be relieved by this, right?

Chapter 238 Brother Zhang, What's the matter with you?

Although Li Yi was smudged when he faced Zhuge Xuan at the beginning, but after finalizing the matter, the specific work was done very quickly.

Early in the morning of the second day, he personally asked Huang Yueying to write a "personal letter", and then chose a more exciting guard to send it to Shouchun.

Originally, Li Yi considered whether to wait until Wancheng, and let Xu Shu or Shi Tao take the letter. After all, although these two are not well-known for the time being, they are still scholars at any rate, and they can be used as envoys of Li Yi who have eight classics. identity to meet Yuan Shu.

But after thinking about it for a while, Li Yi decided not to use them this time.

For people like Yuan Shu, don't say that Li Yi is just a prefect now. Even if Li Yi gets Jingzhou in the future, in Yuan Shu's mind, Li Yi is at most a cunning upstart, and his status still cannot be compared with him.

As for "unknown pawns" like Xu Shu and Shi Tao, in Yuan Shu's eyes, they are probably no different from ants.

It's fine for them to simply send letters, but if they put on the stance of envoys under the banner, Yuan Shu will not only not look at them directly, but will secretly despise them in his heart, and even sneer at them face to face, and it is not impossible for the matter itself to change.

Therefore, in the case of unequal status, it really doesn't make much political sense to send envoys to support the facade.

In addition to considering Yuan Shu's character, Sun Ce also had to guard against it. The ghost knows whether the little overlord will see Li Yi's banner and his eyes will turn red, and he will make a white knife in and a red knife out at Xu Shu or Shi Tao.

Although the possibility of this happening is unlikely, Li Yi must take it into consideration, otherwise something unexpected would happen and he would have nowhere to cry.

After weighing things up, Li Yi decided to send a guard over there. Yuan Shu and his subordinates might laugh at Li Yi for being shabby, but neither they nor Sun Ce would take it seriously, otherwise it would be too bad up.

Moreover, if all of this goes well, Li Yi can use this to achieve another purpose to show weakness!

Li Yi specifically mentioned in the letter that because he first arrived in Nanyang, all kinds of things were in a mess, and he couldn't handle it by himself, and there was really no one available under his command, so he could only send letters between martial arts. Please forgive me His difficulties, and in addition, if possible, I hope that envoy Yuan can help send troops to escort his family for a while, that would be even better.
