Lu Su got off his horse, raised his head, looked at the door of the King Chen's mansion, and praised: "Good calligraphy."

Liu Hao, who was ordered to go out to greet him, smiled and explained: "The governor has eyesight, this is written by Zhang Wenshu (Zhang Chang)."

"Is that so? I heard that Zhang Wenshu's cursive script is outstanding for a long time, but I didn't expect that the regular script is so calm and generous." Lu Su turned around and said to Jia Xu: "Military advisor, there are talents in Liangzhou."

Jia Xu twisted his beard and smiled. "Although brothers Zhang Boying's calligraphy is good, how can they compare with Guandong? Not to mention Cai Boyi, Zhong Yuanchang's calligraphy is the best in the world. Even the king's pen is a top-notch masterpiece." He looked at Liu Hao and said, "Jun Liu can ask the king to write a new title to change the atmosphere."

Liu Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "If I could get the handwriting of the king, then my father and son have been drought and rain for a long time. Governor and military advisor, please wait in the hall."

Lu Su smiled and entered the gate with Jia Xu. The slaves in the palace stood solemnly on both sides, the guards were wearing armor and holding halberds, and bows and swords on their waists, as if they were facing a great enemy. Lu Su glanced at him and saw him disappearing, and chatted and laughed with Liu Hao all the way. Liu Hong stood in front of the middle gate and bowed to greet him, and entered the atrium. Liu Chong stood at the steps in a red dress and stood without a crown. As soon as he saw Lu Su, he lifted up his hem and was about to bow down.

Lu Su didn't dare to neglect, so he quickly stepped forward and held his hands. "Mr. Liu, why are you?"

Liu Chong shed tears and sighed. "The governor entered Chang'an, and he was waiting for his sinful family, and he was worried about his return. If he advances, he would betray his ancestors and his descendants. If he retreated, he would betray the governor. It is really a dilemma. Life and death cannot be achieved, so I can only ask the governor to give up."

Lu Su laughed loudly, his eyes inadvertently paired with Jia Xu, showing a knowing smile.

When Lu Su entered Guanzhong, the royal family in Guanzhong had not made any statements and was watching. As a representative of the Liu family, Liu Chong did not take the initiative to visit, and even the plaque at the door of the royal palace was not removed. The confrontation was very obvious. Lu Su asked Jia Xu for advice, and Jia Xu said that this was not Liu Chong's original intention, but the collective attitude of the Liu family. They had military power in their hands and were unwilling to give up, so they naturally wanted to bargain. Liu Chong was the representative of their introduction. Guanzhong's interests were complex and they could not rush to achieve success.

Lu Su accepted Jia Xu's suggestion and did not make any noise for most of the month. Until Luoyang heard news that the old ministers of the former dynasty headed by Sun Rui were properly placed, some were retained, and some were decently retired. Sun Shangxiang successfully attacked the Tianjing Pass, Zhao Ang's wife Wang Yi made contributions and was appointed as Sun Shangxiang's army. The interests of the upstarts in Liangzhou were guaranteed. The royal family of the previous dynasty had become an isolated army. Only then did he personally visit Liu Chong.

Liu Chong was free from a slug dress and regarded himself as a sinner, and his attitude was very clear.

Both sides took the seat, Liu Hao accompanied Liu Chong in to change his clothes, and took this opportunity to pass on what Jia Xu said just now. Liu Chong understood it. Sun Ce had no intention of dealing with him. If he could assist Lu Su in handling this matter properly, he might even retain Fugui and just change his title. King Chen would definitely not be able to do this.

Liu Chong was relieved and returned to the hall to greet Lu Su again. The two of them did not mention official business, but just chatted. Lu Su told him about Sun Shangxiang's surprise attack on the Tianjing Pass and congratulated Liu Chong. The brothers and sisters of Wu's feelings for Liu Chong's teachings were always engraved in their hearts, and Sun Shangxiang even took Liu Chong as his teacher and never forgot about it. This time, the surprise victory was also due to Liu Chong's teachings.

Liu Chong said he didn't dare to take it. After a few words of humility, he praised Sun Shangxiang for being extraordinary. It was his luck to teach her craftsmanship, but he did not dare to make merit. The topic naturally turned to Sun Ce's teachings to his younger siblings. Liu Chong was very moved. Sun Ce was open-minded, protected his younger siblings' talents, and each made his strengths. The Sun brothers and sisters all had the ability to support themselves. Since ancient times, few monarchs have been able to do this.

After the remarks, Lu Su conveyed the meaning of King Wu and sincerely invited Liu Chong to Luoyang to discuss the plan.

Liu Chong agreed with the promise.

The host and the host were all happy. After Lu Su said goodbye, Liu Chong ordered people to take off the plaque of the Chen Prince's Mansion. As soon as the news came out, the royal family flocked to inquire about the situation.

All this naturally cannot escape the eyes of Lu Su and Jia Xu, but they did not express their opinions. They only strengthened the defense of Chang'an City and ordered Zhao Yun, Yang Fu and others to be prepared for response. If the Liu clan members do not know how to politely and insist on taking risks, they will be completely solved by force.

After Wang Yi was appointed as Sun Shangxiang's army, Yang Fu and others were relieved and willingly supported Lu Su and served Wu. It was precisely because of their support that Lu Su had the confidence to complete the final blow to the Liu clan.

On the tenth day of August, Liu Chong set off for Luoyang. Xu Sheng was ordered to lead a building boat to escort him and went downstream. On August 14th, he arrived in Xiaopingjin.

Sun Shangxiang has received orders to greet Liu Chong on the sandbank and hold a banquet to welcome Liu Chong. When the master and apprentice meet, there are endless things to say. After a few years, Sun Shangxiang is already tall and graceful, practicing martial arts and commanding military battles all year round, giving her a unique heroic spirit. In front of Liu Chong, she was both the lively and the indescribable confidence and calmness in her every move, which made Liu Chong feel deeply moved.

If he praised Sun Shangxiang in front of Lu Su, he felt that he was not praising him enough when he saw Sun Shangxiang in front of him. Sun Shangxiang was far better than he thought. A girl of fourteen or fifteen years old could have such ability and demeanor, and her future achievements can be imagined.

Sun Shangxiang revealed a news to Liu Chong: She is just practicing now and will conquer overseas in the future. The world is very big, and Brother Wang is too busy alone. She and her third brother Sun Yi will become Brother Wang's right-hand men, expanding their territory together and spreading the Chinese civilization of clothing.

Liu Chong was enlightened.

The next day was the Mid-Autumn Festival. King Sun Ce of Wu was going to hold a banquet in Shouyang Mountain on the side of the camp, and drink with civil and military officials to enjoy the moon. Liu Chong was also invited. He did not dare to neglect and rushed to Mengjin Camp early in the morning.

Sun Ce was very busy and had no time to meet Liu Chong immediately, so he sent a special accompanying party: Chen Xiang Luo Jun. Luo Jun was commended for his outstanding political achievements for several years and was recommended by the Prime Minister's Office to serve as Jingzhao Yin. He is about to take office. This time, Luoyang came to work as a plan and report on his duties, and handed over official duties, and soon took office. When he learned that Liu Chong was approaching, Sun Ce entrusted him to receive Liu Chong.

When the old friend met, Liu Chong was in a good mood and traveled to Shouyang Mountain with Luo Jun.

After a few years of seeing each other, the two of them changed a lot. Liu Chong had a lot of affairs in the court and suffered huge changes. His body and mental pressure was very high. His hair was half white, and his face had several wrinkles. He had almost no elderly spots. In contrast, Luo Jun did not change much, but his body became stronger.

After communicating the experiences of the years after the farewell, the two of them felt deeply moved and sighed continuously, as if they were yesterday.

"Although Liu Gong, Bo Yi and Shu Qi are virtuous, they are not worthy of imitation. It would be a pity that the king is just using martial arts to shoot birds and birds." Luo Jun laughed loudly, laughing echoed between the pine and cypress, and several birds made crisp chirping responses.

Liu Chong also smiled. When he heard Sun Shangxiang's ambition yesterday, he was mentally prepared. Seeing Luo Jun, he had already clearly understood Sun Ce's thoughts, and his feelings could not be concealed. Walking on this Shoalang Mountain, he had no intention of imitating Boyi and Shuqi.

"Xiaoyuan, I appreciate your kindness, but I am old and don't have that ambition. I just want to find a quiet place to live this life."

"Mr. Liu, you can not be tired of ordinary things and have the intention of being out of the world, which is admirable, but you must think about it for young people." Luo Jun smiled faintly and said, "Young people are full of energy and have military power. How can you be willing to be idle? It is not a bad thing to go out to explore while you are young. Of course, this is just a choice, not a force."

Liu Chong was slightly slight. He also knew this. He was willing to support his elders, but the young Liu clans might not be willing. If Sun Ce was willing to give them a chance to conquer, they might not be able to create a world. As the saying goes, it is better to be out of order than to block. Those who are willing to support their elderly care, and those who are unwilling to support their elderly care will go to fight.

"Xiaoyuan, are there any other choice besides this choice?"

"Of course there is." Luo Jun smiled and said, "To be fair, it sounds majestic to make achievements and expand territory, but not everyone can be competent. The soldiers are fierce and dangerous, and the left guardian is good at fighting. It is so difficult to attack Yibi City. Others can imagine how many of the Liu clan members are like the left guardian? People are more conscious. According to my opinion, they are the generals under the command of the King of Wu, and are ordered to conquer and be named marquis. It may be more suitable for them."

Liu Chong remained silent. He believed in Luo Jun and Sun Ce, but he could not believe in others. Whether the Liu family's children were generals in the Wu army would be excluded and whether they could be treated fairly is really hard to say. Liu Chong has experience in commanding troops and knows that the generals in the army are not scholars. They will directly kill people when they attack. On the battlefield, if they cannot trust each other, how can they make contributions? It would be great to save their lives.

He could even imagine the reaction of the Liu family's children when they heard this choice. Although this choice was good, it was not feasible.

Seeing that Liu Chong didn't speak, Luo Jun smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, this is just one of the choices, not the only one. If Mr. Liu has any worries, he might as well speak out when he interviewed the king. The King of Wu is open-minded and grateful to Mr. Liu for his kindness in his teachings. I guess there will be no grudge. Isn't it beautiful to seek benevolence and seek righteousness?"

Liu Chong felt it was reasonable, laughed twice, and said, "Xiaoyuan, yesterday I heard Zuo Dupu say that their brothers and sisters will go out to sea to conquer in the future. With their strength, will there be a chance for me, Liu's children?"

Luo Jun laughed. "Mr. Liu, the world is so big that it is far beyond your imagination. If the Liu family members can shoulder heavy responsibilities, let alone establish a country, it is possible to create a great man again."

"Take it seriously?" Liu Chong was skeptical.

Luo Jun nodded solemnly. "Mr. Liu, you can trust me as much as before."

Liu Chong quickly apologized, but his mind became alive.

Sun Ce crossed his fingers and clenched his fists, pressed his chin, looked at Liu Chong for a while, and smiled.

"Get the map."

"Here." Zhang Wen changed Liu Chong's teacup to another place and took a map to spread it on the table. Sun Ce stared at Liu Chong's eyes and picked up the corners of his mouth. "Liu Gong, please choose a place. If you have anything to be puzzled, just ask."

Liu Chong was skeptical, but he still looked down at the map. This map was different from what he had seen, and he couldn't find the direction for a while. Seeing this, Zhang Wen pointed to the map and explained it to him. This is the Great Han Dynasty, this is the East China Sea, this is the South China Sea, this is the North China Sea, this is the Western Regions, and each explanation is made one by one.

After hearing this, Liu Chong looked embarrassed and his face became a little hot.

Is the world so big? He originally thought that Luo Jun was just talking and playing, but now when he saw Sun Ce taking out this map, he realized that Sun Ce really had this plan. According to the markings of this map, it is not difficult to leave a piece of land for the Liu family's children. As long as the Liu family's children are successful, it is possible to build a great man. The world is too big, even greater than he imagined. Not to mention that Sun Ce cannot be fully equipped in this life, even his descendants may not be able to do it. Under normal circumstances, it is no problem to maintain the expansion of three or five generations. What is the point of leaving a little opportunity for the Liu family?

Liu Chong was confused and didn't know how to choose.

Sun Ce smiled without saying a word. Without listening to Luo Jun's reply, he could guess the thoughts of Liu Chong and the Liu clan members. Who would like to admit his failure? As long as there is a glimmer of opportunity, even a straw, they would try their best to seize it and never give up easily.

This is human nature.

Therefore, to peacefully resolve the hidden dangers in Guanzhong, the best way is not to conquer by force, but to replace it, and use a larger cake to exchange for the straw in their hands. Even if not everyone is willing, it can at least destroy a person's fighting spirit and show his sincerity.

"King... do you have any good suggestions?" Liu Chong was struggling for a while, but decided to ask Sun Ce for advice. He had no idea about the situation in those places, so how could he make a choice?

Sun Ce did not refuse, and reached out to click on the map. "If it is based on distance, this land is closest. It can be reached in a few days from Liaodong to cross the sea. This land is not small, but it is mountains and some barbarians live in it. It is said that the boys and girls brought by Xu Fu, who was looking for the medicine for immortality for Qin Shihuang, were here. If Liu Gong was willing to go, he might be able to hear some local accent."

Liu Chong smiled and did not accept Sun Ce's topic. This narrow and long land is too northerly and is probably not suitable for farming. It is also in the sea and has limited room for development.

"If you are not afraid of being far away, this land is also very suitable. First of all, the place is very large, nearly ten thousand miles from north to south and five thousand miles from east to west, which is larger than the Central Plains. The land is fertile, with mountains and forests, plains, and there is a lot of room for development, but it is farther away." Sun Ce changed to another place. "I heard from the old man in the sea that during the reform of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the remnants of the Shang and Shang dynasties went to the sea and went to their place. If Liu Gong was willing to go, he might have seen the classics of the three generations."

Liu Chong shook his head with a smile. "Thank you, the king, but I am knowledgeable and have no knowledge of the classics of the Three Dynasties."

"Mr. Liu won't think about it anymore?" Sun Ce smiled and said, "I'm going to hide it from Mr. Liu, I originally planned to leave this land for Shutong. It's a pity that he died young and could not wait for this day."

Liu Chong was stunned for a while before he realized that what Sun Ce said was Shutong refers to the late emperor Liu Xie, and he couldn't help but feel sad. Among the Liu family's children, the one with the most heroic appearance was Liu Xie. Unfortunately, he died in a battle, which was simply the abandonment of Liu by God.
