Lu Yi brought the horse and bow. Sun Shangxiang jumped on the horse and held the bow in his hand, very vigorous.
It's a pity that she is old and her legs are too short to reach the stirrups.
Lu Yi didn't say anything. He untied the stirrup straps and fastened them on Sun Shangxiang's feet. Sun Shangxiang was a little embarrassed, so he started to squirm.
Sun Ce could see clearly from a distance and glanced at Yu Fan in surprise.
Yu Fan laughed and said, "It's you he hates."
Sun Ce frowned slightly, and then sighed again. "I was also forced by the situation, and it's too late to regret it now."
"When it comes to controlling people's hearts, the emperor is still smart. He is neither hasty nor slow, and takes steps step by step. It seems slow, but when I look at it after three or five years, I find that it is surprisingly fast."
"Yes, the Emperor is an unparalleled lord, and we can only worship him." Sun Ce thought for a moment and then said, "On the way here, I went to see Zhang Zibu."
Yu Fan snorted disdainfully: "What's the gain?"
Sun Ce shook his head. "If there are no external enemies, it will be a country of gentlemen."
Yu Fan glanced at Sun Ce and laughed. "It's a bit surprising that the Lord can say such things. It seems that he has gained a lot in Liaodong during this period, which is gratifying."
Sun Ce looked at Yu Fan, but stopped talking.
The Battle of Liaodong indeed opened his eyes and gained a lot. However, the process made him very depressed, and he felt embarrassed to even speak out.
This time, he and Liu Bei were the main forces in the siege of Xiangping City, but Liu Bei was better than him in every aspect and always took the lead. He thought it was an accident at first, but later he realized that he and Liu Bei had unknowingly widened the gap.
.
And he had a chance to overpower Liu Bei.
Liu Bei's advantage is not in Liu Bei himself - he is better than Liu Bei in both personal martial arts and battlefield command - but in the well-trained soldiers under his command. Many times, Liu Bei does not need to give orders at all, and those captains and military princes are just
Solved the problem.
Sometimes, even if there are some problems with Liu Bei's command, these middle and lower-level generals who are on the battlefield can turn the situation around.
In comparison, the generals under his command were inferior.
Thinking about it carefully, Liu Bei made full use of Huang Yi's opportunity to help out and learned a lot of training skills. However, when Yu Fan came to help out, he was focused on fighting and did not take the opportunity to learn some skills, let alone let his generals catch him.
Live this rare opportunity.
The opportunity was placed in front of him, but he didn't seize it. He couldn't say such a shameful thing.
This time I came to Xingzai. In addition to asking for an imperial edict from the emperor, I also wanted to ask Yu Fan to give him another chance and teach him how to train a general.
Yu Fan knew it, but he didn't say anything and changed the subject.
"What did you see in the Bohai Sea?"
"Actually, I didn't see much. I just stayed in Nanpi for one night and didn't go deep into the Bohai Sea." Sun Ce suddenly remembered something. "By the way, I met Kong Rong."
"Kong Rong? It turns out that this old thief went to the Bohai Sea. No wonder he can't be found."
Sun Ce was greatly surprised.
Although Yu Fan and Kong Rong had never met each other, they had a good friendship. They often exchanged letters and discussed knowledge. Kong Rong even praised Yu Fan's Yixue, which was regarded as a favor to Yu Fan.
Although Yu Fan was arrogant, he was not so rude as he called Kong Rong an old thief.
"What happened to Kong Rong? Who is looking for him?"
Yu Fan burst into laughter and briefly told the story about Kong Rong's proposal to revise the "Chronicles of Emperor Xiaohuan" and become a public enemy.
Sun Ce suddenly understood, but still had some questions. "Why do so many people oppose the revision of "Records of Emperor Xiaohuan"?"
Yu Fan thought for a while. "Do you know Zhou Jing and Zhou Zhongxiang of the Zhou family in Lujiang?"
"I know, Gong Jin's great uncle."
"He is an old official of the Liang family."
"So what? Liang Shang, Liang Ji and his son have been in power for nearly thirty years, and there are countless former officials of the Liang family."
"Indeed, the Liang family has many former officials, but it is rare for people like Zhou Jing, who had a prosperous official career when Liang Ji was in power, to recover quickly after being imprisoned, and on the grounds that he is a virtuous person."
Sun Ce was stunned.
Being able to have a prosperous official career when Liang Ji was in power naturally gained Liang Ji's trust. It is really surprising that such a person can quickly come back with his talents after being imprisoned.
"This is because someone is helping me."
"Guess who this noble man is?"
Sun Ce shook his head and said with a smile: "How can I, a warrior, know such a secret?"
Yu Fan nodded, very satisfied with Sun Ce's attitude.
After not seeing each other for half a year, Sun Ce has become much calmer and more reserved.
After a while, Lu Yi brought Sun Shangxiang to report the results of the assessment.
Generally speaking, Sun Shangxiang's talent is good, but she is obviously not that strong yet, and she is still a little far away from the assessment standards.
Sun Shangxiang was very frustrated, but Lu Yi emphasized her talent and believed that she just lacked training. If she could strengthen herself in the martial arts hall for a period of time, passing the assessment should not be a problem.
Yu Fan said: "In that case, let's take her under my wing first, and you, the senior brother, can take care of her."
Lu Yi responded and stepped aside.
Sun Shangxiang was surprised and happy. She failed the exam and thought she had no chance.
Sun Ce was not surprised at all, he was just grateful.
Yu Fan took the initiative to accept Sun Shangxiang as his disciple, making it clear that he wanted to repay him for his kindness. By asking Lu Yi to help Sun Shangxiang, he wanted to take this opportunity to resolve the grudge between him and the Lu family of Wu County.
Of course, there may be a little bit of hometown camaraderie.
At lunch, Yu Fan took the Sun Ce brothers and sisters to the restaurant and had a working meal together.
Although the meal was not rich and there was not even wine, the appearance of Yu Fan and Sun Ce together was enough to cause a sensation. Everyone knew that Yu Jijiu was a madman, and most people had no chance to eat with him.
The news soon reached Liu Xie's ears.
Liu Xie was a little surprised.
Although Yu Fan was crazy, he was not stupid. In front of such a person, he expressed his special regard for his old master Sun Ce, and even accepted Sun Shangxiang as his disciple. This was somewhat intentional.
Who is he doing this for?
But Liu Xie didn't say anything.
Yu Fan is not the kind of person who wants to form a party, and Sun Ce is a prince who is scheduled to go to sea for conquest. There will not be much intersection between them in the future.
Moreover, Sun Ce brought his family members to see him this time, which meant that he was asking for a pledge, and his loyalty could still be trusted. Even if Yu Fan wanted to form a party with him, he might not be willing to take this risk.
After much thought, he felt that there was only one possibility: Yu Fan was trying his best to support talents other than Ruying people and Liangzhou people in order to form a new balance in the army.
Wang Duan's wife Zhang is a typical example.
Without Yu Fan's cultivation, no matter how smart Zhang was, he would not have been able to make such rapid progress.
Of course, this is just his conjecture, and may not be what Yu Fan himself thinks.
One day later, Liu Xie summoned Sun Ce to see him.
Sun Ce received the news and rushed to Xingzai as soon as possible.
When the monarch and his ministers met, Sun Ce paid homage with great respect and solemnity, not daring to escape in the slightest.
Liu Xie was very satisfied.
Compared with the previous times, Sun Ce who met him this time was more pure and kind, a bit of a humble gentleman and as gentle as jade.
"The Marquis of Wu is resting from the battle and is not resting in Qingzhou. Why is he making a special trip to see him?"
