Uncle, please help the Han family

"What else does Xiangguo prepare?"

"Ah, get ready..." His cheeks blushed unconsciously, staring at the other person's pupils, Liu Yu said slowly, "Anyway, you go back and discuss it with your parents, it's not a small matter."

"No, my parents have already agreed, they all agree."

The more he talked, the more excited he became, Kong Rong wished he could get into Liu Yu's eyes.

"Eh? Just entrust you to me like this, they decided?"

"Yes, handing me over to Xiangguo is..."

In the middle of speaking, Kong Rong suddenly stopped, then frowned slightly, lowered his head, thought for a while, then raised his head: "Xiangguo should mean accepting me...my idea of ​​governing the country, right?"

"???"

The air seemed a little awkward at the moment.

In the eyes of the two of them, there was a confusion of 'something wrong with you'.

In the end, it was Liu Yu who chose to break this pattern.

"You want to change places with Zhuge Liang, what do you want...for what?" Liu Yu said uncertainly, "Could it be that you just want to show your idea of ​​governing the country?"

"..." Looking at Liu Yu, Kong Rong paused for a moment, then nodded, "Ideology and culture are the foundation of a country. In the early Han Dynasty, Huang Lao's theory of governing by doing nothing prevailed, and then Dong Zhongshu deposed a hundred schools of thought. Confucianism has gradually become orthodox. However, with the decline of the country and the collapse of rites and music, the status of Confucianism is now nothing. Xiangguo, don’t you need a descendant of Confucius like me? , come to revive the country?"

Kong Rong was very serious when he asked, as if Liu Yu should think so.

But where does this start?

"Oh... yes, of course." Liu Yu didn't want to offend him while hanging on to him, so he nodded with a smile.

"During the Eighteenth Route Princes' Alliance, I was the weakest and smallest branch, but Xiangguo was the closest to my ministers. Isn't it because... does this approve of me?" Kong Rong was originally determined, but Liu Yu's hesitant attitude made her Suspicious.

Chapter 422 Like a Fish in Water... Cough, Like a Fish in Water

Ah, this... isn't it because Yuan Shu rebelled against me, and then you rebelled against Yuan Shu?

isn't it? isn't it?

"Xiangguo said that I feel like a fish in water, just because..." His brows were slightly frowned, his eyelids drooped downwards, and the confidence in Kong Rong's tone became less and less, "Do you want me to help the Allied forces transport food?"

The metaphor of being like a fish in water is very important to Kong Rong, because Xiangguo's name is 'Yu', which obviously refers to something.

But, does he deny it now?

Thinking of this, Kong Rong gradually had some subtle feelings about Liu Yu.

Ah hey, don't look at me with that look...

I have indeed said these words, when the Eighteenth Route princes met, they were indeed the closest to you, but this... what can this explain...

OK, let's think about it differently.

I am a small vassal, with the weakest army, I joined the alliance of the [-]th Route vassals, and through the introduction of an old friend, I got in touch with the lord. You originally thought this was a very serious and noble But after getting in touch, I found that the other party's attitude was very good, and even took the initiative to hold your hand when we met for the first time, saying that I am a fish and you are water, and we can enjoy the joy of fish and water together.

So, you desperately worked for this lord, hoping that he could see your efforts, and even encountered threats to your life. Standing in the team, you want to go to the imperial capital together, or simply give up your territory to the leader, but the leader gave Yao an official position in order to appease you, and promised to take you back one day.

Then, when you offended everyone, you waited for the lord's army to go south to pick you up and return to Ye, and waited and waited...

"You must be my water... there is no doubt about it!"

After thinking about it in this way, he realized that he was indeed a scumbag, and he was too scumbag to understand. Liu Yu quickly reined in the precipice, put his hands on Sister Rangli's shoulders, and cast a sincere and enthusiastic look at her .

Damn it, if I were Kong Rong, I would definitely feel that I am already like this at this moment, then my position in Xiangguo's heart is guaranteed to be in the top five, and I hope to sprint to the top three.

But apart from Zi Yu, Gongsun Zan, and Liu Bei whom she knew, Zhang Liao and Sun Ce whom she didn't know... Oh no, there are already more than five!

(Why Mao Sun Ce can also enter this sequence? Don't reveal the surname too blatantly!)

"Ah..." Kong Rong's body trembled when Liu Yu shook his hands, and she looked at him cowardly. She said slowly, "I'm not jealous of that girl named Zhuge Liang, it's just...it's just that I think Master Xiangguo and I are the same. The two hearts are close to each other, and should be closer than they are now."

Kong Rong has never served anyone in his life.

Dong Zhuo?Even if labor and capital are weak, they must send troops to wipe out the trash of usurping the Han, so as to revive the glory of the Han!

Yuan Shu?Trash from a good family background, short and thin, with acrimonious eyes, what big things can this kind of person do, with an anti-thief look on his face.

Cao Cao?Grandpa is the eunuch's rubbish, domineering and cruel, smug and defiant, sooner or later the labor and management will point their noses at her and scold her.

Yuan Shao?It's not bad, the personality and family background are not bad, and they can get along with each other, but that's all.

As for Tao Qian, Han Fu, and Liu Biao, let's not talk about those random, insignificant idiots.

Only Xiangguo is her imperial lord, a loyal minister, a wise man who understands etiquette and Confucianism, and a bold hero.

So, for a wise man like Xiangguo to become a close friend like Boya Ziqi with a passionate patriotic young man like himself, shouldn't it?

He...why doesn't he seem to think so?

Could it be that my position on his side is not as good as that of Sun Ce, Zhang Liao and the others...

"My sincerity is here." Grasping Kong Rong's hand and letting it rest on his chest, Liu Yu seriously promised, "I don't have an exact image of how the world will look like, but it must be that we will unite together." , to build together.”

Let's become the successors of the strong man together.

"Xiangguo." Feeling the pounding heartbeat, Kong Rong also raised his head, "Xiangguo, my sincerity is also..."

"Ah, there's no need for this, I can feel it."

Before committing the crime of public obscenity, Liu Yu returned to normal quite sensibly, and then promised Kong Rong: "In order to take back those military power and the city, I have always followed the principle of fighting first and then talking. Now, Zhang He Gao Shun It's already been fought, and all the tasks for the second half will be handed over to Wen Ju. After Qingzhou returns to the imperial court, Wen Ju, like Gao Zhang and the others, will take the lead. After the end, I also promise to take you Go back to Ye City, and entrust you with a heavy responsibility, so that your talents and ambitions can be fully displayed."

Confucianism pedantic?

so what.

This thing can last for thousands of years, and the Confucius family can be passed down to modern times, which shows that it is still a capitulator who is easy to compromise in essence. Making this thing an official unified thought will definitely do more good than harm to the stability of Liu Yu's court.

Of course, it is enough to cover the outside with a Confucian skin. If you want to make the Han Dynasty a stable dynasty, the core "laws" must never be discarded, and these core things should be implemented by the slowly growing Zhuge Liang.

"really?"

Although Liu Yu's words were quite sincere, Kong Rong was still quite vigilant in his heart.

I still have some reputation in Qingzhou, so it is the best candidate to stay and manage this place, and I only need to cooperate with a strong general in the court.

So Xiangguo won't just promise me verbally, but actually trick himself into being the governor of Qingzhou at that time, right?

If it's a promising governor of Qingzhou, that's fine, but anyone with a discerning eye understands that as a front-line state, Qingzhou will soon be under complete military control, and a governor who is not good at military affairs like himself will be completely ignored here, without any funds for thinking Education and cultural creation.

Kong Rong is ambitious, she knows exactly what her development path is, so naturally she doesn't want to be a beautiful mascot, transporting food for Gongsun Zan, Guan Yu and others throughout the war.

"Then, let's make this bet." Liu Yu continued the initial topic and said, "If you win, replace Zhuge Liang. If you lose, just be yourself."

"What does it mean to be myself?" Kong Rong didn't understand, and continued to ask, "It means that if it rains, I will..."

As soon as the words fell, a transparent filament fell from the sky and passed by Kong Rong's eyes. Immediately afterwards, the drizzling sound began to linger in his ears.

Within half an hour, it really started to rain.

"Obviously there are no dark clouds gathering at all, and it really is raining!" Kong Rong was surprised by this scene, with an unbelievable expression on his face.

Is this little girl really that witch? !

"You lost." When Kong Rong was surprised, Liu Yu bent his finger and hit her smooth forehead, "It's raining."

"Yes, I lost."

Kong Rong originally wanted to find fault with Zhuge Liang, but he didn't expect that the other party was really a farmer uncle, so he was willing to admit defeat and lowered his head: "Then I will, just be myself."

But what does it mean to be myself?

It means, continue to stay in Qingzhou, and be this idiot governor who can't help even if there is a war?

"Being yourself means doing what you want." Liu Yu stretched out his hand and said to Kong Rong, "From now on, follow me."

"Eh?!" Hearing this, Kong Rong's eyes lit up, and he said in disbelief, "That is to say, I can help the big man with Xiangguo?"

"Yes, and as the most important envoy under my command."

There was another reason why Liu Yu kept Kong Rong in Qingzhou instead of bringing him to Youzhou like Sun Ce did, and that was because he was afraid that it would force the scholars to scold him, so he didn't think about how to use it for the time being.

But now, it is time to gradually conquer the hearts of the people of the world, and it will definitely be much more convenient to bring this person with the fruit of face ability.

Although Kong Rong's strength is hard to say, his reputation is really great.

Before everyone knew the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the first character to know was probably Kong Rong of Rang Li.

"Great! I have long wanted to assist Xiangguo with all my strength!"

The rain was getting heavier and wet Kong Rong's pink hair, but she didn't care at all, showing her joy on her face.

No wonder being able to play well with a hanger like Mi Heng is indeed without a trace of restraint.

"Okay, don't get wet from the rain, go in quickly."

Liu Yu didn't want to catch a cold, so he took Kong Rong's hand and led her into the tent that had been set up in advance.

"Xiangguo."

He stopped suddenly and looked at the man's profile from behind. Perhaps Kong Rong had a whim, or perhaps he had been hinting at himself for a long time, but he suddenly asked, "You should, do you really appreciate me?"

"..."

Good question.

What does Liu Yu think of Kong Rong?

He can't fight the Yellow Turbans, he can't cure the army, he likes to sing too much, and he often kidnaps morally and puts hats on him, so he doesn't get along well with many people.

These do exist.

However, when Dong Zhuo abolished the emperor, she was the one who fought hard for reason, and she was the first to respond when the princes formed an alliance. When the princes' alliance fell apart and the world was in turmoil, she was also the one who stood firmly on the court's side.

It can only be said that as a famous official, she may lack some historical opportunities, but as a person, she is really a loyal minister who flaunts herself with morality and can follow this principle at the same time.

Therefore, Liu Yu was able to answer frankly: "Of course, you are the best person I have ever met, and I met you very late."

Obviously, this 'best' is conditional.

Kong Rong knew that what Liu Yu said was that he was the best person in the neutral, non-enemy camp before.

This is compared with people like Tao Qian, Cao Cao, Han Fu and Yuan Shu.

But to be recognized in this way, why not make people happy.

"What Xiangguo said is very true." With a proud smile on the corner of his mouth, Kong Rong replied without humility, "My good, you will see more and more later."

Chapter 423 You Are Xiangguo's Dog

In front is the hinterland of the former Qi State, now Donglai County.

Under the pressure of Zhang He and Gao Shun, Jia Xu was forced to start the Qi State Speed ​​Pass mode with these workaholics, and took down all the cities except Donglai County in less than a month.

"Donglai County has seven princes and six counties. It is the second largest county in Qingzhou after Beihai, and it has a newly built Great Wall defense line. For such a territory, we may suffer a lot of losses if we attack it. Just right, Xiangguo His soldiers and horses have already crossed the river, let's wait for him."

Inside the coach's tent, Jia Xu asked the two generals for their opinions almost sincerely.

I can't do it anymore, my body really can't handle it anymore.

An average of two days to go to the city, and Le Yi was not in such a hurry at the time?

"We've all fought here, and there's only this line left. As long as we cross it, we can conquer the whole of Qingzhou. Why wait for Xiangguo?" Going to the front of the hanging map, pointing to the small peninsula, he said quite proudly, "Listen to me, before Xiangguo comes, we will have already killed it. In this way, the credit is all ours, isn't it beautiful?"

This Qingzhou speed pass mode is much simpler than the Central Plains dungeon and Xuzhou dungeon.

As a general, even if he sacrifices some troops, wastes some time, or even lacks virtue, he still wants to make his military achievements more prominent.

It's like if you get all four kills, why not get five kills?

"This..." After being agitated by Zhang He, Gao Shun didn't know what to say. He sat on the chair with his head down, as if he couldn't make up his mind.

Of course, this hesitation has already explained her tendency.

Otherwise, just follow what Jia Xu said. After all, this is the optimal solution.

"The credit for this battle must belong to the two generals. Even if Xiangguo came and did the finishing touches, he will reward you." Jia Xu persuaded earnestly.

Ren Xiangguo is a big Han Xiangguo, and there is nothing to seal. Does he need to compete with you?

Don't be so horny, it's no better than Dele, and it doesn't make sense to fight any longer.
