The moon is swaying, the world is lingering. The breeze is coming, and the water waves are not stirring. The night in Penglize is quiet and charming.

Sun Ce walked slowly along the lakeside with his hands behind his back. Zhou Yu followed, smiling and calm. Penglize was the Poyang Lake in later generations, but the specific location was a bit off and did not completely overlap. Penglize's location is northerly, connected with the Yangtze River. In winter, the water is shallow, the area is much smaller, and there is no wind and waves. In summer, a large area here is full of water, and Penglize is only a part of it.

Sun Ce visited the famous Lushan Mountain in his previous life and also saw the river here. Looking at the strange scenery in front of him, he couldn't help but feel emotion.

"Gongjin, Xun Gongda is a talent." Sun Ce said, turning his head to look at Guo Jia and Xun You not far away. Guo Jia changed into a feather fan and said something with forehand. Xun You arched his hand and stood silently, and returned to his immortal appearance. But Sun Ce knew that this seemingly silent man had a fire in his heart, and once it burst out, it would be amazingly powerful.

Zhou Yu turned his head to look at Sun Ce with clear eyes. "Bo Fu, Xun Gongda's talent is more than a counselor, he is enough to take on the responsibility of one side."

Sun Ce nodded. He knew that Xun You was not only a strategy, but also a good martial arts. Xun You had never shown martial arts, but his martial arts was definitely not bad. Otherwise, he would not be an assassin and wanted to assassinate Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo was born in the army and had a strong martial arts skills. Before him, Wu Fuxing assassinated Dong Zhuo and was killed by Dong Zhuo on the spot. He heard Zhou Yu say that Xun You had decided to move his family to Wuhui, which meant to rely on him. Now that he encountered Yuan Shao's Hu cavalry trampling on Yuzhou, he was invited by Guo Jia to plan a battle for hegemony for him.

The core of fighting for hegemony is four sentences, two steps: respect the emperor, dominate the Central Plains, hold on to the ears of the cow, and open up a new trend.

Sun Ce's origin was not enough to resist Yuan Shao, but the court could. With the help of the court's morality and the authorization of the court, Sun Ce could become the strongest prince in Shandong except Yuan Shao, gathering the power of everyone, and having a full chance to defeat Yuan Shao. This is to respect the emperor and dominate the Central Plains. The overlord is not a domineering person. Xiang Yu is called the overlord, which refers to him as the leader of the kings, not to him being extremely powerful and domineering.

By defeating Yuan Shao and becoming the leader of the princes, he could use his power and strength to implement the new policy, implement his new policy in Nanyang to the world, and benefit the people. He could change the world according to his own ideas, which was easier than now.

Xun You did not say what to do next. He may still be in love with the court and was unwilling to say that, but with Xun You's IQ and insight, he should know what the result was. He was not Cao Cao, and he hid it and finally showed his intention to be unjust. His actions have surpassed the duties of a minister, so he did not expect Xun You to give advice for him, just as he knew that Xun Yu was unlikely to serve him.

So, he was actually very surprised today.

But he still doesn't want to give Xun You the opportunity to stand alone, especially now. People's ideas match their strength. Now Xun You has no military power, and he is one idea. When he has military power and can control the situation in the world, it may be another idea. From another perspective, he took the initiative to offer advice, which seemed to be forced by Guo Jia, but it was impossible to take advantage of the situation and do this on purpose.

It is not a particularly clever theory to take the lead. The reason why he did not break the window paper was perhaps because he was deliberately misleading. What do you think is your business? Anyway, I have never said that I support you in rebellion and there is no such thing as breaking my promise.

He can be used, but he must be within the range he can control. Sun Ce shook his head and rejected Zhou Yu's suggestion. Zhou Yu is very smart, but he is too young after all, and he is still a little teenager. He advocates the style of ancient straightforwardness, and is very enthusiastic when he is like each other. In front of a cunning and extremely cunning person like Xun You, he may not be his opponent.

Xun You is 37 years old this year. He is not as easy as Guo Jia and Yu Fan. He is not so easy to change. He can use the plan, but he must be guarded against what he should be guarded.

"Gongjin, if I go north, will you be responsible for the war in Chaisang alone? "

Zhou Yu patted his palm with Yu Ruyi. "Liu Yao was isolated and helpless, and Chaisang will be broken sooner or later. It's just a waste of time, and it's not difficult."

"If you delay, just delay. Don't be anxious. We may lack a lot of things, but we don't lack time."

Zhou Yu pondered for a moment, couldn't help laughing, nodding in agreement. They were only nineteen years old, and there was no shortage of time. "Don't worry, you should worry about Yuan Shao." Zhou Yu sighed softly. "I know it is impossible. What I see is not heroic, but embarrassment."

——

"Gongda, you will definitely regret it in the future." Guo Jia shook the feather fan violently, looking a little anxious. "The situation is like this, why are you still hesitating? You have lived in Nanyang for so long, don't you know what the world belongs to? If you miss such a good opportunity, you will definitely regret it in the future."

Xun You squinted his eyes slightly when he faced the lake. After Guo Jia finished speaking, he said slowly: "Fengxiao, you and General Sun are together day and night. Don't you think there is anything strange about him?"

"I don't think he is anything strange, I think you are strange. I've reached this point and I still say a little bit. I really don't understand what you are talking about."

Xun You raised his lips slightly. "You are just too close to you, and the authorities are confused. This is not the duty of a strategist. As a strategist, you should make up for the shortcomings and be vigilant at all times in order to correct them. How can you turn a blind eye?"

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Xun You, and wanted to say something, but when he said something, he gave up again.

"I'm right? You have the same feeling, but you haven't thought about it seriously, or you don't want to think about it. Just like people are dreaming, they know that it might be a dream, but this dream is too beautiful, so they deceive themselves, addicted to it, and don't want to wake up."

Guo Jia's eyebrows trembled slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He understood what Xun You wanted to say, but that was Sun Ce's secret. He would not tell anyone, even if this person was Xun You. Suddenly, he felt an indescribable pride, as if standing on a high place, watching Xun You groping in the maze, struggling to find a way out. Even though the exit was right in front of him, he missed it.

"Who can tell whether Zhuang Zhou dreams of a butterfly or Zhuang Zhou dreams of a butterfly dreams of a butterfly dreams of a Zhuang Zhou? Isn't it boring to think about these issues every day?"

"If you don't do anything boring, how can you live a life?" Xun You turned around and walked forward slowly. "When you reach my age, you will know that sometimes it's better to be slower. You may have regrets when you are slow, but you won't regret it. Although Yima Chikai is happy, it is easy to lose his or her feet and cause unpredictable disasters."

"And——" Guo Jia blew the feather fan and didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. He speeded up and caught up with Xun You. "General Sun went north, and you and Zhou Gongjin were responsible for the war in Jiangnan. You can't be so slow. Jiangnan should be pacified one day earlier, so General Sun would be able to fight for the Central Plains sooner."
