Xun Yan left the tent, stood for a moment, suppressed his surging passion, and then took a step forward and walked towards his camp.

Shi Sun Rui stood in front of the map and blinked when he heard the long-suppressed breath outside the tent.

Shi Sunmeng walked over from the side, glanced at Xun Yan's back as he gradually moved away, and looked at Shi Sun Rui, and couldn't help asking: "Aweng, are you a little unlucky in your decision? The Northern Army is an imperial guard

, it is not the division of our scholar Sun."

Shi Sunrui's eyes flashed and he looked at Shi Sun Meng. "Can you draw such a map?"

Shi Sunmeng laughed awkwardly. "Aweng, I'm not jealous of him. I admire his outstanding talent."

"Yes, he is talented and well-known. Since that's the case, why not?" He paused and said, "There are no wise men in the wild, which is not a sign of prosperity. The Xun brothers in Yingchuan are both heroes. This is The family should prosper, and it cannot be stopped by human power. Using people is like controlling water, and blocking is worse than diversion. Rather than being an enemy, it is better to use it for me."

He turned around and paced back and forth a few steps, and added. "I think the emperor should think so too, so he is so attentive to Xun Yu."

"Aweng isn't worried that Xun's situation is difficult to control?"

"Worried." Shi Sun Rui smiled. "But that happened decades later, and it has not reached that point yet. The emperor is young and has a high understanding, so he will understand this."

Shi Sunmeng wanted to say something else, Shi Sun Rui raised his hand and waved it lightly. "Okay, these things are not something you can understand, so don't worry about it. For the map, you should pay more attention and arrange for someone to copy a few copies. Don't forget

I sent a copy to the trip, and it was marked as Xun Yan, which took a year to draw it carefully."

"Aweng is really attentive." Shi Sunmeng couldn't help but curl his lips.

"Zhuzi, if you can be better than him, Is it necessary for Nai Gong to do this?" Shi Sun Rui spat angrily. "I shouldn't have let you go to Jingzhou at the beginning. I'm not very capable, but I have developed a scholarly temper. Isn't it a good person?

If you are low, you can only be a civil servant in Naigong. If no one helps you in the future, what can you do? If you can't do it well, you won't even be able to keep Naigong's title."

Shi Sunmeng was caught off guard and blushed, but she also understood Shi Sunrui's good intentions. She couldn't say anything else. She responded stammeringly and turned around and went out.

Shi Sunrui stood in the tent, looking at the map, and a trace of regret flashed through his heart.

If I had known this, why should I be there?

If he had not sent his son to Jingzhou, but had him experience it with him, he would be at least a captain now.

But who knew the situation would become so fast? In a blink of an eye, famous scholars not only lost their place to use their skills, but also became a symbol of high-mindedness and low-keyness.

But the famous scholar's habits of Shi Sun Meng can no longer be removed. Even if his soldiers Sun Meng are brought to the army and into the dense forests of Yizhou, they cannot polish away the weak aura.

Maybe, this is fate.

"Shisun Gong." Wang Ling broke in from outside, and the sound was like a bell, and the wind was coming from his feet. He saw the map at a glance and couldn't help but exclaim: "Has Xun Xiuruo finished?"

"Yeah, look at it."

Without waiting for Shi Sun Rui's order, Wang Ling had already walked to the map, approached and looked closely, and was amazed while looking. "I have to say that Xun Xiuruo is really capable, but he has actually finished drawing this map.

This map will be much more convenient to enter in the future.”

He turned around and looked at Shi Sun Rui, his eyes shining. "Is it going to march into the Longbian? Shi Sun Gong, it should have been like this long ago. If he doesn't march, his credit will be snatched away by Ding Chong and Sun Ce."

Shi Sun Rui frowned slightly. "Yanyun, the world is big, and you are young, don't be limited by this little military achievements."

Wang Ling smiled awkwardly and raised his hand to touch his head. "Shisun Gong has taught him the right lesson. After walking in this mountain for a long time, I have become the frog that is watching the sky in a well. I have no time to think about the sea thousands of miles away. But I can't blame him.

I, I am not a poor child like Sun Ce, who is pleased by the emperor. I missed this time and had the next time. After Jiaozhou was pacified, Shi Sun Rui could return to the court and retire, but I had no other choice."

Shi Sun Rui wanted to speak but stopped, so he had to change the topic. "Where is Huangfu Jianshou?"

Wang Ling looked back and was also a little surprised. "He told me that he would come soon, why are you so slow?"

Shi Sun Rui waved. "Don't worry, I'll tell you something."

Seeing that Shi Sun Rui looked serious, Wang Ling did not dare to be careless and put away his smile. "Please teach Shi Sun Rui."

"You don't want to follow the army to go to Longbian, go to Yongchang to be a captain."

"Yongchang?" Wang Ling's face changed slightly.

"I just received the news that Sun Ce had captured Panyu, and Shiwu fled without fighting. Shi Xie should have received the news, and he may not have the fighting spirit to stick to the Dragon Emblem, and the possibility of surrendering is greater. This time, there may not be a Dragon Emblem.

The opportunity to make meritorious service may be in vain. Once Jiaozhou is pacified, I will soon return to the court to report my life. It will not be so easy to arrange for you. Before you set out, you can go to Yongchang to be the commander of Huangfu Jian

If you go to Yizhou, you don’t have to follow me to go back to the court.”

Wang Ling's face changed a few times, and he wanted to speak but stopped.

He knew that this was Shi Sun Rui's wish, but when he thought of staying here for several years or even decades, he was a little unwilling to accept it.

Just because I am Wang Yun’s follower, I can only watch others make achievements?

"Look at the map carefully." Shi Sun Rui reminded.

Wang Ling hesitated for a moment, looked at the map again, but was a little absent-minded.

After a while, Huangfu Jianshou walked in and saw the map, he couldn't help but praise him.

Shi Sun Rui didn't say much, and told him to look at the map with Wang Ling and leave the bill to change his clothes himself.

Taking this opportunity, Wang Ling and his soldier Sun Rui said the arrangement. Huangfu Jianshou was not surprised at all after hearing this. He stretched out his finger, found Yongchang on the map, and then clicked gently.

"Yanyun, look here."

Wang Ling turned his head and looked over, but saw Huangfu Jianshou's fingers slowly heading southwest along a line, dragging longer and longer until the edge of the map.

"Do you know where this path leads?"

Wang Ling pondered for a moment. "Tianzhu?"

"That's right, it's Tianzhu. Then do you know where Tianzhu leads to the west?"

"have no idea."

Huangfu Jianshou continued to retreat, his arm drew an arc in the air, and finally pointed it in the void. "Rome."

Wang Ling was surprised. "The Rome that the emperor is going to conquer?"

"It is. From Tianzhu, there are two roads, one water road, one by boat, one by land, and one by horse to head north. No matter which road it is, it matches the emperor's journey to the west." Huangfu Jianshou patted the map lightly."

This road may be closer than Sun Ce’s departure from the South China Sea.”

Wang Ling suddenly realized. "So, Mr. Sun arranged for Xun Yan to draw this map not for the war in front of him, but for the future?"

"Can you say that." Huangfu Jianshou hugged his arms. "The Central Plains have been settled, and the brothers of the Jiaozhou are about to collapse. The Northern Army will follow the Scholar Sun Gong back to the court. The Western Expedition to India will naturally fall on your and me.

.But, you and I should be just the deputy general, not the main general.”

"Who will be the main general?"

Huangfu Jianshou picked up his chin. "Of course he is the person who is most familiar with the terrain."
