Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

However, when Liu Bei went to bed, Li Ji was still standing on the deck of the "Yingzhou" looking up at the night sky, calculating the changes in the weather.

It is related to the safety of the army, and even though the shipbuilding factory has made many improvements to the sea-going ships, it is obviously far from being as stable as Mount Tai.

Therefore, Li Ji hardly dared to relax at all, and was always paying attention to weather changes, lest a violent storm send this fleet into the seabed.

Suddenly, a gentlemanly voice sounded behind Li Ji.

"Zi Kun has been standing here for a long time, but he feels uneasy?"

Li Ji didn't need to look back, he knew who the familiar voice was and asked. "Why did Wen He say that?"

"People's hearts are unpredictable, let alone someone like Zikun who holds most of Wu County's troops and ships as well as expeditions overseas. Even if Zikun becomes independent overseas, it is not difficult. But Zikun has no such idea."

Jia Xu walked slowly to Li Ji's side and continued. "There may not be people around my lord who would make such remarks. As time goes by, I can't tell... Hehe..."

Li Ji glanced sideways at Jia Xu and said. "Does Wen He not believe the Lord, or does he want to test Ji's thoughts?"

Jia Xu didn't say anything, just looked at Li Ji with a smile.

After a pause, Jia Xu turned to look at Li Ji and replied in a serious tone.

"The lord trusts Ji so much, how can Ji betray the lord?" Li Ji responded lightly, without showing any wavering in his tone.

Under Jia Xu's secret manipulation, Guo Yi almost took the initiative to kill corrupt officials and wealthy families in Jiangji County one after another.

Maybe Jia Xu doesn't understand what "Stockholm Syndrome" is, but Jia Xu, who is good at people's hearts, almost completely plays with Guo Yi, causing Guo Yi to develop a similar mentality, and he is comparable to a loyal dog in front of Jia Xu .

Jia Xu's eyes flickered slightly, and then he replied. "Zikun, please don't talk nonsense like this. I will always do my best to assist the lord."

As early as in the past, Jia Xu had always felt that Li Ji was a person with an extremely flexible moral bottom line.

"In terms of knowledge and employment, Ji is actually far inferior to the lord. With Zibu, Zizhong, Xianhe and others on his side, and the Rende Academy training a large number of scholars, as long as the lord knows the direction of governance, there will be no mistakes. "

"On the contrary, Zikun should not stay away from the Wuhui Land. Without Zikun sitting in the middle, there is no doubt that something would go wrong in the Wuhui Land."

If Li Ji hadn't been very aware of Guo Yi's mental state, there's no way Li Ji would have believed Jia Xu's one-two punch.

At this point, Li Ji is particularly confident.

Li Ji's ability to know people well was more of a prophetic advantage, but Liu Bei indeed had a unique vision for employing people.

Being able to employ people is the most important ability as a master.

"Wu Hui's place is still too small. There is no stage for Wen He to show off. Doesn't Wen He want to show off his talents?" Li Ji asked with a smile.

Li Ji smiled and shook his head and said.

Jia Xu replied calmly. "Recuperate? Zikun, please don't slander me. I am working hard in Kuaiji County to persuade the governor Guo Yi to be kind and protect the people."

"Wen He has been recuperating in Kuaiji County for so long. Don't you want to move?" Li Ji asked.

Jia Xu was not surprised by Li Ji's answer.

Internally, Li Ji's high moral standards made Jia Xu ashamed;
Externally, Li Ji's low morals often made Jia Xu dumbfounded.

"Wen He, you are underestimating my lord."

At this point, Kuaiji County is undoubtedly completely under Liu Bei's control, otherwise Li Ji would not be able to safely take Jia Xu with him.

"Actually, Zikun shouldn't have brought me with him. If I stay in Wuhui, I can always say a kind word to the lord for Zikun." Jia Xu said, stroking his beard.

In addition, Li Ji left Guo Jia in Wu County. Even if there was an emergency, Guo Jia's quick wit and ability would definitely be able to provide considerable help to Liu Bei.

With the Liu Bei Group's current team remaining in Wu County and the current overall stable situation in the Han Dynasty, the possibility of any major changes is slim.

However, Jia Xu did not fully believe Li Ji's statement.

This is all because in the past, Liu Bei's abilities were almost overshadowed by Li Ji's light. In addition to his benevolence and trust in his subordinates, Jia Xu really did not notice Liu Bei's outstanding abilities.

For a wise man, Jia Xu will not easily believe what others say, but will always maintain his own judgment.

Even if this person is Li Ji, there will be no exception.

However, Jia Xu would not argue with Li Ji on this issue, but asked in a low voice.

"Zikun, when you go to Yingzhou, what are your goals and bottom line?"

"If there is a chance, Wenhe can just play freely, there is no need to ask more questions."

After Li Ji said this, he patted Jia Xu on the shoulder and walked into the cabin.

Jia Xu, who had his back turned to Li Ji, considered the meaning for a moment and suddenly understood Li Ji's purpose of bringing him along.

As the coach, Li Ji represents a big man, so some things cannot be overdone.

But what Jia Xu did privately was obviously different.

"Bah, that's true."

Jia Xu secretly spurned Li Ji for a while, and then followed him off the deck and returned to the cabin, but his steps were unconsciously a little brisk.

After all, it is extremely painful to learn something but have no use for it.

'Now seems like an opportunity to have fun...'

Li Ji guessed that Jia Xu's mentality might be a little excited because of this, but when Li Ji entered his room and saw Sun Ce lying on his bed, he could hardly help but let out a sharp roar. Voice.

who? ! Who sent this boy Sun Ce to my bed, Mr. Li? !
No, it should be said that this boy Sun Ce actually secretly boarded the ship without telling him? !

Li Ji's face immediately darkened. He walked over in three steps and then raised his hand and knocked heavily on the forehead of Sun Ce, who was sleeping soundly.

"boom!"

Li Ji suddenly felt as if his fingers had hit the steel plate, causing pain.

On the contrary, Sun Ce opened his eyes drowsily as if he was unscathed, until he saw Li Ji standing in front of him with a dark expression.

The next moment, Sun Ce almost rolled up to his feet and saluted Li Ji, saying.

"teacher."

Li Ji hid his trembling fingers behind his back, and secretly glanced at Sun Ce's forehead, not even a red spot was left.

'Why is this end so hard? '

Li Ji said secretly, and after several years of development, Sun Ce, who was originally just like a calf, was now only twelve or thirteen years old. His physique was not inferior to Li Ji's.

"Why are you here?" Li Ji asked in a deep voice.

"Cer wanted to follow the teacher and listen to the teachings at all times. So he sneaked into the water and got on the boat, and then hid in the teacher's room." Sun Ce said in a low voice.

Li Ji narrowed his eyes and asked suddenly. "Who taught you this sentence?"

"It's brother Quan..."

Sun Ce, who realized what he had said, quickly changed his words. "It's definitely not Brother Quan, it's Ce'er's own idea."

Sun Ce, who had a deep gut, was obviously not suitable for lying. He lowered his head under Li Ji's gaze and said with a guilty conscience.

"Teacher, I also want to go with you to conquer Yingzhou. I have been practicing water fighting at the beach for more than two years. I will definitely be able to help the teacher. However, the teacher did not allow it before, so Brother Quan suggested that I sneak up there first. The boat asked the teacher for permission."

"Does Mrs. Wu know about this?" Li Ji asked again.

"I left a letter for my family. Tomorrow brother Quan will give the letter to my mother, and my mother will know my whereabouts." Sun Ce replied honestly, kneeling down.

……

Li Ji.

This can be regarded as leaving Li Ji speechless. You are really a filial son.

"It is very inappropriate to disrespect your teacher and leave home without telling Gao Tang..."

Li Ji scolded Sun Ce, then waved his sleeves and said. "I will transfer a ship to take you back to Wu County tomorrow morning."

"Teacher, please let Ce'er follow you. Ce'er will definitely obey the teacher's orders in everything." Sun Ce quickly begged.

It's just that even if Li Ji intended to train Sun Ce in the direction of a naval admiral, Sun Ce was still too young after all, only twelve or thirteen years old. It would be a pity if something unexpected happened in Yingzhou.

Moreover, Sun Ce left home without Mrs. Wu's permission, so Li Ji did not dare to leave Sun Ce behind.

"No!" Li Ji refused.

However, Sun Ce held his neck and said.

"But didn't the teacher always say that Gan Luo became the prime minister when he was twelve years old? Now that Ce'er is more than twelve years old, why does the teacher look down on me so much? After making great achievements, becoming a marquis and becoming a general, Ce'er will never lose to others!"

"Even if the teacher sends Ce'er back to Wu County, Ce'er will still swim to catch up with the teacher!"

Suddenly, Li Ji felt a headache.

People become softer and softer when soaked in the sea, but why did Sun Ce become harder and harder after being soaked in the sea for two years? Once he decided to make up his mind, no one could stop his stubborn temper.

Moreover, Li Ji had no doubt that even if he really sent Sun Ce back, he would probably swim after him.

After pondering for a moment, Li Ji asked. "Aren't you afraid of killing people and staining your hands with blood?"

Sun Ce's face lit up and he responded quickly. "Ce'er killed thieves at the age of nine without changing his countenance, let alone the Japanese? Blood staining is the pride of a man."

"it is good."

Li Ji nodded and said.

"I will inform Mrs. Wu of this matter in handwriting. If Mrs. Wu objects, I will send you back by force. Before that, please follow me."

Sun Ce was overjoyed when he heard this and asked quickly. "Can the teacher let Ce'er write in handwriting?"

"What do you think?"

Li Ji asked back, making Sun Ce laugh.

Then, Sun Ce suddenly came to his senses and quickly stood up to tidy up the bed and quilts for Li Ji.

Just looking at Sun Ce's clumsy look, Li Ji couldn't help laughing and scolding, and said.

"Get out and find an empty room to rest."

"is teacher."

Sun Ce, who knew he was in the wrong, didn't care about the teacher's expression of intimacy and walked out with a smile on his face.
