Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

The noble families were excited before they went in, but looked depressed after they came out.

Xun Gun and Chen Ji looked depressed, as if they had lost their parents.

After they entered the room, they saw Guo Jia. There was no pride on Guo Jia's face, but rather it was full of humility. When he saw everyone, he immediately showed respect to them as a junior. The more Guo Jia did this, the more frightened everyone became.

It was not until they heard that Uncle Liu had handed the matter over to him that they completely lost hope on their faces.

During the conversation, everyone gave Uncle Liu a list of gifts.

The statements were almost the same: the imperial uncle had worked hard and made great contributions, and had led the army on a long expedition, so now he was offering a large amount of money and food as a token of his gratitude.

Guo Jia took it all back with a smile, and finally did not forget to express his gratitude.

After everyone left, Guo Jia looked at the thick gift list and the smile on his face became more intense.

"Yuan Fang, did you see that? From now on, the title of the No. 1 family in Yangdi, and even the entire Yingchuan County, may change hands."

Chen Ji was also an old fox, so he understood what Xun Gun meant.

Uncle Liu asked Guo Jia to meet the heads of the aristocratic families on his behalf, which was sending a clear signal to them.

From now on, no one will be able to shake the Guo family's position in Yingchuan County.

"This matter cannot be blamed on Uncle Liu. We can only blame ourselves for not realizing Uncle Liu's extraordinaryness sooner. Otherwise, we would not have reached this situation anyway."

"At this point, we can only take one step at a time."

The two men sighed. In fact, they both understood that when Liu Yu first entered Luoyang, he wanted to recruit them into his army.

In order to win their support, he gave the glass craftsmanship to the two of them and voluntarily gave up the share of the profits.

At that time, although they had witnessed Liu Yu's extraordinary ability, Liu Yu was weak and did not even have a decent base. He could only lead his soldiers and stay in the ruins of Luoyang City.

Later, when he occupied Chang'an, they still did not look favorably upon him. The situations of Chang'an and Luoyang were very similar. Both were ancient capitals and were almost deserted.

Occupying these two places, the potential for development is very limited.

As far as military rations were concerned, Liu Yu found it difficult to solve the problem.

Things are different now. He conquered three counties in ten days. He is powerful and unstoppable. If he continues at this momentum, Yuzhou will soon fall into his hands.

Yuzhou has been the center of the world since ancient times. The land in its territory is fertile and it is a famous grain-producing area in the Han Dynasty. If Yuzhou is occupied, the food problem will be easily solved.

In this era, food means everything. How much food you have determines how many troops you can have.

Now that Uncle Liu has the emperor by his side and justice in his hands, if he has more food, his future development will surely be limitless.

……

……

Liu Yu stood at the gate of a quiet courtyard, listening to the melodious sound of the piano coming from the courtyard.

The sound of the piano is distant and melodious, making people forget their worries.

After the song was over, a voice came from the courtyard.

"When the sound of the piano suddenly turns high-pitched, there must be a hero eavesdropping."

Liu Yu was very familiar with these words. He heard them when he came to visit Mr. Shui Jing for the first time.

Now that he came here again, Mr. Shuijing still said the same thing.

Liu Yu was very confused. Could it be that standing outside the door could really cause the sound of the piano to change?

Maybe this is his routine. No matter if there is anyone around or not, he will just shout at the slightest provocation.

Of these two reasons, Liu Yu is more inclined to the latter.

After all, this is not fantasy, and super powers should not exist in this world.

If there really were super powers, Liu Yu would give up everything without hesitation and go to learn them.

It is obvious that superpowers are much more attractive to Liu Yu than this.

Liu Yu pushed open the gate, walked up to Mr. Shui Jing and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, sir."

"It turned out to be Uncle Liu." Shui Jing showed a faint smile on her face, "No wonder the sound of the piano suddenly became so loud."

"May I ask, sir, can listening to the piano outside the door really cause the sound of the piano to change?"

"The secret cannot be leaked."

After hearing this, Liu Yu became more certain of his judgment. He believed that all the secrets that could not be revealed were just a means to fool people.

For the four-have young people who have been educated in the materialistic worldview of later generations, they do not believe in the existence of supernatural powers in this world at all.

Mr. Shui Jing seemed to have noticed Liu Yu's attitude. He coughed twice and began to change the subject.

"The emperor's uncle conquered three counties in ten days. Even if you read all the classics, there are few such examples. The emperor's uncle is so young, but he is such a hero. It is a blessing for the Han Dynasty and the people."

Liu Yu smiled faintly and said, "Sir, you are too kind. Although we have taken these three counties, we still have a long way to go if we want to achieve long-term stability."

Shui Jing laughed.

"Yuan Gonglu is a man of few plans and few wisdoms. He was able to obtain his current position thanks to the Yuan family's background. However, even if the Yuan family's background is strong, it is difficult for them to survive in this world. In my opinion, Yuzhou will belong to the emperor's uncle sooner or later."

Liu Yu knew very well that Mr. Shui Jing was not an ordinary person; he was a rare wise man in this world!

No matter how much I preach to others that I need to rest and recuperate, I'm afraid it won't escape his eyesight.

Facing such a powerful figure, any tricks or scheming would be futile and might even backfire.

Only by treating him with sincerity and with the most sincere attitude can you win his heart.

After all, a very smart person like Mr. Shui Jing can see through hypocrisy and affectation at a glance, and only sincerity can win his recognition and appreciation.

"Sir, you have a good eye. I have taken three counties in a row. Yuan Gonglu will definitely gather a large number of troops in Pei State. That is why I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"Uncle, you don't have to be so modest. Your move of showing weakness to the enemy is not a bad strategy. In my opinion, it is not only a good strategy, but also a good strategy."

Mr. Shuijing kept smiling. He looked at Liu Yu and continued, "I'm afraid that the emperor's uncle also cooperated with Liu Jingsheng in this plan."

"That's right." Liu Yu answered slowly. Liu Jingsheng only wanted to protect the territory and stabilize the people. He didn't want to cause too much trouble, which made Liu Yu feel helpless. "Liu Jingsheng will not send troops. He just needs to create momentum in Jingzhou."

"In this chaotic and turbulent era, Liu Jingsheng chose to stick to his own land. This is probably not a wise decision. In my opinion, he is simply unable to hold on to Jingzhou."

"Everyone has his or her own ambitions and pursuits, and no one can change other people's minds." Liu Yu sighed softly, with a helpless smile on his face.

If Liu Biao really had a little bit of ambition and was able to launch an attack with Liu Yu from the north and the south at the same time, it would definitely put enormous pressure on Yuan Shu and put him in a dilemma.

In this way, it is entirely possible to defeat him in one fell swoop and make Yuan Shu leave the stage of history ahead of time.
