Chapter 275 Lu Su Meets Xun Yu

The soldiers guarding the gate refused to report, and the guards brought by Lu Su all showed angry faces.

It had been several days since he followed Lu Su to Xudu, and the guard had long been aggrieved after seeing him being neglected in various ways.

Looking back at the guards, Lu Su winked and signaled them to hold back.

He said to the two soldiers: "I have something important to tell Duke Xun about the Cao family. If it is not urgent, I will choose to come to see Duke Xun at night? You are blocking me, maybe it is because you want to delay the matter ? It caused trouble, but I won't bear even a little bit for you."

The status of the two gatekeepers was humble, and Lu Su's words were harsh, leaving no room for maneuver.

They glanced at each other, and one of them said: "You wait here first, I will report to the lord and come back to you."

One soldier was left to block Lu Su and the others, while the other turned around and entered the courtyard.

Not long after, the soldier came back and said to Lu Su: "My lord invites you in, but the guards have to wait in the front yard."

As long as Xun Yu was willing to see him, Lu Su would be able to speak out. He bowed his hands and thanked the soldiers, and led the guards into the courtyard.

The guards waited in the front yard, while Xun Yu's guards led Lu Su to the back yard.

Xun Yu worked under Cao Cao, and Cao Cao respected him very much, and arranged many things for him.

At this hour, it was impossible for Xun Yu to fall asleep.

He was flipping through the recent news from various places in his study.

When Lu Su arrived, the soldiers reported, and Xun Yu raised his head to say hello, "Mr. Lu, please come in and talk."

When Lu Su entered the room, Xun Yu got up to greet him: "I don't know Zijing's visit, so please don't blame me if I miss you."

"Yuan Ying doesn't dare to think about it anymore, as long as Brother Wen Ruo doesn't block me from the door, so that I can't say anything, that's all." Lu Su returned a salute.

"Zijing's words really scare me a lot." Xun Yu said with a smile, "Zijing, please sit down!"

Asking Lu Su to sit down, Xun Yu asked, "I heard from the guard that Zijing came to me for something important?"

"It's been a few days since I came to Xudu, and Mr. Cao still refuses to see me. Is there something secretly planned that I can't see?" Lu Su asked Xun Yu.

Cao Cao sent Guo Jia and Xu Chu to Yecheng. Even in Xudu, only a few people knew about it, and Xun Yu was one of them.

When Lu Su asked this question, Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I don't understand what Zijing said. What can my lord do, I need to keep Zijing from you." of?"

"Did Duke Cao plan to attack Marquis Wen?" Lu Su lowered his voice, "If not, why didn't even the envoy sent by Marquis Wen refuse to meet?"

"Zijing said that, but he was thinking too much." Xun Yu quickly replied: "My lord is in charge of military and government affairs in various places. He has too many things to deal with, and he is always busy with affairs every day. Please ask Zijing to come to Xudu It is a last resort to stay longer today."

"You and I are both sensible people, and we also know that the current situation is delicate." Lu Su said: "Marquis Wen crusaded against Lujiang, but took Jiangdong, if brother Wen Ruo was Cao Gong, would he be too strong? What are you afraid of?"

Cao Cao felt uneasy because of Lu Bu's rapid growth, so he sent Guo Jia to contact Yuan Shao, hoping that the Cao and Yuan families would unite to destroy Lu Bu first.

Now I don't know what Yuan's family means, so of course Xun Yu couldn't admit it in front of Lu Su.

He chuckled, and said to Lu Su: "If Zijing thinks so, he really has wronged my lord."

The topic has always revolved around these things. After all, it is not easy to tell a lie if you say too much. Xun Yu, who understands this level very well, asked Lu Su: "Zijing came to see me at night, is it just to talk about these things? Is there anything else? "

"I just want to tell Brother Wen Ruo." Lu Su said: "If Mr. Cao intends to be unfavorable to Marquis Wen, in order to protect himself, Marquis Wen will definitely rise up and resist. But now Marquis Wen wants me to come, but to ask Mr. Cao It’s all about some military merit. As long as Duke Cao is willing to give these false names earned by military merit, he will definitely follow Duke Cao. Even if he does not follow for his own benefit, he will definitely not be an enemy of Duke Cao.”

"May I ask what Lu Fengxian really wants?" Xun Yu asked.

"Now Marquis Wen occupies Pengcheng, which used to be the former capital of Western Chu. Because of Pengcheng, he wants to ask Duke Cao to change his title." Lu Su said, "I wonder if Duke Cao will give him the title of Marquis of Chu. "

"That's all?" Xun Yu asked in surprise.

"Other than that, what else can I ask for?" Lu Su said: "The imperial court conferred Wen Hou as General Zuo, and now his official position is still there. He won't ask for too much. He is already satisfied if he can be given the title of Marquis of Chu."

"Is there anything else?" Xun Yu always felt that Lu Su had something else to say, so he asked again.

Lu Su smiled indifferently: "Even if there are only these requests, Mr. Cao has already avoided seeing them. Do I dare to ask for anything else?"

"Tomorrow morning, I will go to see the lord and mention this matter to him." Xun Yu said, "As for whether the lord will have time to meet Zijing, it depends on whether he still has so many affairs in hand."

Xun Yu didn't finish his words, but Lu Su knew that with his permission, the meeting with Cao Cao was probably done.

He then said: "Marquis Wen's matter has been settled, and I have some private matters to discuss. I wonder if brother Wen Ruo can help realize my wish."

"Private affairs are always easier to handle than public ones." Xun Yu said with a smile, "If Zijing needs my help, just bring it up."

"Brother Wen Ruo, if I work under Marquis Wen, am I considered a Han minister?" Lu Su suddenly asked Xun Yu.

Xun Yu was stunned for a moment: "Lu Fengxian is Marquis Wen, the leader of the left general of the great Han Dynasty. He is a Han minister. If you work under him, of course you are also a Han minister."

"Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the first emperor ordered local bravery to be recruited from all over the country to fight against rebellion, and there have been heroes from all over the place." Lu Su said: "Nowadays, all over the country are supporting themselves, and the Han Dynasty is also declining day by day. As a Han official, every time I think about this place, I They are all heartbroken. Since I came to Xudu under the order of Marquis Wen this time, I want to see His Majesty, although I can't do anything for His Majesty, I can always say a few words of relief and express my heart to my subjects!"

The reason why Xun Yu worked under Cao Cao was precisely because he felt that Cao Cao was a person who could accomplish great things, and it was probably up to Cao Cao to achieve the restoration of the Han Dynasty.

Xun Yu, who was loyal to the Han Dynasty, felt a sympathy in his heart when he heard Lu Su's words.

But he wasn't sure if what Lu Su said was true or not, so he asked, "Zi Jing really thinks so?"
