Chapter 375 Return

The liquor brewed by the method of the later generations has a high alcohol content. Although Lu Su has a lot of alcohol, he couldn't stand the battle of the Jingnan officials, and was finally drunk and carried back to the library.

In the next few days, Liu Jing did not hold any receptions. As the New Year approached, it was a busy time, but no matter how busy he was every day, he would spare some time to summon Lu Su to discuss current affairs and talk about the world.

Lu Su was not only the most outstanding diplomat in the Three Kingdoms era, but also one of the most outstanding strategists. Although "The Couch" is too rough and not rigorous enough compared with "Longzhong Dui", it is also a rare strategic plan in the Three Kingdoms era , referring directly to the career of the emperor, Sun Quan compared it to Deng Yu's Yu Guangwu, so we can see.

Originally, Lu Su was very high-minded and thought he knew the general trend of the world. However, after talking with Liu Jing several times, he deeply realized the truth that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside people.

Lu Su had long heard that Liu Jingzhi was slightly above the world, thoughtful like a god, and an extraordinary person, but he felt that Liu Jing lived in the remote Jingnan, so he must not have the same view of the world as he did, but he did not expect the opposite. His views are far superior to his.

Apart from lamenting that Liu Jing was careless and was born in Tianxin, what else could Lu Su say?

On this day, Lu Su, who had been in Linxiang for eight days, formally bid farewell to Liu Jing.

Knowing that Lu Su was going to leave, Liu Jing couldn't help but urge him to stay, saying: "Zijing, why bother to leave, haven't you already sent someone back to Jiangdong to report the letter, and it will be Zhengdan in a few days, why don't you leave after Zhengdan. "

Lu Su politely refused: "Thank you, General, for your kindness, but the captives are still looking forward to my news day and night in Jiangdong, and there are only three months left before the date when the two sides agreed to send troops. The time is quite urgent, and there is really no delay."

Liu Jing held Lu Su's hand tightly, and was unwilling to let go. He said, "Zi Jing has great ambitions, great vision, talent as well as civil and martial arts, and Wang Zuozhi is also talented. Let me know, apart from Zhang (Zhao) Zi Jing In addition to Bu and Zhou (Yu) Gongjin, there is also such a rare scholar as Zijing."

"Thank you, General, for your reputation." Lu Su solemnly thanked him.

Liu Jing is not only the overlord of Jingnan, but also the crown of Jingzhou scholars. If his words are passed back to Jiangdong, Lu Su's worth will double.

At that time, I am afraid that even Zhang Zhao will not dare to slander him wantonly. After all, Lu Su is the "Wang Zuo's talent" that Liu Jing personally judged, and if he continues to target him, he will inevitably feel jealous.

Liu Jing sighed again: "I just wish I couldn't share important events with Zijing."

Lu Su also sighed in his heart, Liu Jing was a nobleman in the Han family, with a profound caliber, aspired to the world, both civil and military, with both ability and political integrity.However, he had already committed himself to Jiangdong, and Sun Quan treated him very well, not only treating him highly, but also giving him property in his mansion, making him as rich as he used to be.When Sun Quan met him as a scholar of the state, he naturally wanted to repay him as a scholar of the state. Apart from that, he had no other thoughts.

Lu Su thanked him again, and then said: "Nowadays, the mausoleum of the Han Dynasty is late, and wolves are in power. The captives and the generals all have the royal family in their hearts. Now they have formed an alliance. In the future, we should work together to destroy the innocence and bring peace to the country. Although it is not under the command of the general, what difference does it make?"

Lu Su probably didn't believe even himself, so Liu Jing shook his head, "I hope it's as Zijing said." Then he took out the bamboo paper, grinded the ink himself, and wrote a letter to Sun Quan.

Lu Su stared intently at Liu Jing burying his head and brushing his pen. There are many people in Jiangdong who are good at calligraphy, and among them are two Zhangs, Zhang Zhaoneng is good at official script, and Zhang Hong is good at seal script.However, Lu Su privately thinks that both are inferior to Liu Jing. Liu Jing's characters are square, graceful and elegant, as magnificent as palaces and temples, which is unforgettable at first sight.

Bamboo paper is also unforgettable at first sight. Lu Su came to and from the official temple for several days, and naturally discovered that in Jingnan, bamboo paper has replaced bamboo slips as the main writing material for official documents.

It is said that this yellowish, thick and flexible paper was invented by Liu Jing.Bamboo is hard, so Liu Jing can actually use it to make paper, which is unimaginable.Lu Su specifically asked Liu Jing for some, and prepared to bring them back to Jiangdong.

After Liu Jing wrote the letter, he handed it to Lu Su, and held a banquet to see Lu Su off in the afternoon.

The next day, regardless of the cold rain, Liu Jing insisted on going out of the city to see Lu Su off. Lu Su was deeply moved by such a courteous reception and thanked him again and again.

At the time of parting, Liu Jing said: "I hope that soon, I will be able to meet with Sun Qiulu in Hanmian, and then I will have a drink with Zijing."

Lu Su made a solemn promise, and then bid farewell to Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and others one by one.

During this trip to Changsha, Lu Su got to know a lot of talented people from Jingnan, among whom Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu had the best relationship, followed by Jiang Wan.Jiang Wan is Liu Jing's (chief book) butler, and will send him out of the country on behalf of the latter.

Lu Su and Jiang Wan boarded the large passenger boat provided by Jingnan side by side, and sailed to the north under the watchful eyes of Liu Jing, Zhuge Liang and others.

A few days later, Lu Su parted ways with Jiang Wan at the junction of Changsha and Yuzhang Counties, and set foot on the road back to Jiangdong alone.

Compared with the time when he came, the return journey went smoothly. It only took Lu Su a month to return to Wu County.At this time, it was the end of the first month of the seventh year of Jian'an (202 A.D.), and the period for the westward expedition to Liu Biao was approaching. The army of water and infantry scattered across Jiangdong was continuously gathering towards Dantu in the north of Wu County.

Seeing that the dispatch of troops was imminent, Lu Su immediately speeded up, landed from Dantu, traveled all the way, and returned to Wu County quickly to meet Sun Quan.

When Sun Quan saw Lu Su's return, he couldn't wait to ask him.

Lu Su will describe what he saw and heard in Changsha, detailing everything. Liu Jing is the most important person. Lu Su has a very high evaluation of Liu Jing, saying that he is a hero and has the style of an ancestor.Lu Su's original intention was to attract Sun Quan's attention, but he didn't want to make Sun Quan unhappy with this move, and asked, "Is Zijing trying to follow Ma Yuan's lead and convince me to surrender to Liu Jing?"

At that time, Kai Xiao sent Ma Yuan to Luoyang. After seeing the ancestor Guangwu, Ma Yuan was deeply impressed by him. After returning to Liangzhou, he praised Guangwu for his resemblance to the great ancestor, who had the style of a virtuous man and the appearance of an emperor, and urged Kai Xiao to send him away. Son into the pledge.

Lu Su naturally knew this allusion, and he knew that he praised Liu Jing too much, which must have misunderstood Sun Quan, and hurriedly said: "Su is an ordinary talent, but he has a special encounter with the general. How dare you not do everything you can to assist and repay the favor? The reason why Liu Anyuan has many good words is because Liu Anyuan is indeed a hero in the world, far superior to Liu Biao and Liu Zhang, and is the biggest obstacle to the general's unification of the south. The general cannot ignore it. "

"I misunderstood Zijing." Sun Quan hastily stepped forward to hold Lu Su's hand, and said sincerely, "Zijing is my Deng Yu. If Zijing abandons me, no one will be able to make plans for me in the future. , so I lost my composure."
