The small soldiers on the frontier at the beginning killed Liu Ye, the Han God of War, and Lu Lingqi

"The last general, Liu Ye, has met the governor."

Liu Ye was not surprised at all that Ding Yuan wanted to see him.

Not to mention that the other party is likely to know the identity of his Han clan clan, even if he saved his son's life last night, it is impossible for him to remain indifferent.

"Haha, General Liu, no courtesy. I have long heard that General Liu is young and promising. When I saw him today, he really lived up to his reputation."

Ding Yuan personally stepped forward to help Liu Ye up, acting very cordially.

"Your Majesty, the governor, has given you too much praise. I wonder if you have asked the general to come here. What are your instructions?"

Liu Ye said modestly and asked Ding Yuan about his intention.

"I didn't dare to take the order seriously. I just heard Quanzi say last night that General Liu had saved his life. As a father, I naturally couldn't help but express my gratitude.

Here is one thousand taels of silver, which is my gift. General Liu, please accept it. "

Ding Yuan took a wooden box from the scribe on the side and opened it.

"This... Sir, you don't have to be like this. When the road is rough, draw your sword to help.

When your noble son is in trouble, I will naturally not stand by and watch.

Therefore, I cannot accept this money. Sir, please take it back. "Liu Ye refused righteously.

In fact, this is just a formality.

Neither he nor Ding Yuan would take this mere 1000 taels seriously.

The reason why we still do this is to establish a deeper connection.

Liu Ye wanted to make acquaintance with his apparent immediate boss through Ding Chao, so as not to put him in the wrong shoes in the future.

Ding Principle wanted to express his position to the Han Dynasty through Liu Ye, and he would never collude with the Wang family.

After all, after what happened just now, he was completely on the opposite side of the Wang family.

If you are still just a wallflower at this time, you will really die without knowing how.

As for whether the person who assassinated his son last night was from the royal family, it was no longer that important.

Not to mention that his son was not dead, even if he was really dead, he could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Just because he is a minister of the Han Dynasty, the royal family really wants to see him unhappy, and the next imperial edict is enough to deprive him of everything he has now.

Even though he is a fifth-grade scribe in the realm of meritorious service, it is because of the blessing of national destiny.

Without the status of governor, he is nothing.

This is also the biggest difference between him and the children of the aristocratic family.

People have their family's destiny to support them, and whether they have the blessing of national destiny has little impact on them.

And he followed the path of Confucian officials pioneered by Dong Bansheng.

As long as the official position is high enough, the realm will naturally rise.

The disadvantage is that once the blessing of national luck is lost, the cultivation level will return to before liberation.

As the saying goes, there are gains and losses. It all depends on personal choice.

It has to be said that it is not unreasonable for Dong Zhongshu to become a semi-saint.

The mere act of tying the cultivation of Confucianism and Taoism to the destiny of the Han Dynasty is enough to be called a stroke of genius.

It not only greatly strengthened the centralization of power and maintained the stability of the country, but also reduced the difficulty of Confucianism and Taoism. Promotion can increase the level of cultivation.

This is also the fundamental reason why Confucian practitioners can stand out among hundreds of scholars.

However, Dong Zhongshu had good intentions, but he underestimated human nature.

When Confucians no longer focus on cultivating the mind and only focus on promotion and wealth, they are destined to push Confucianism and Taoism into another abyss.

This is why Mr. Meng, as a descendant of Mencius, chose to break away from Confucianism, which was so disappointing.

Ahem, the topic has gone too far.

In short, after some friendly and cordial exchanges, Liu Ye and Ding Yuan have reached a preliminary strategic cooperation.

At least in this three-thirds of an acre of land in Bingzhou, Liu Ye would not have to walk sideways in the future, but he would not have to worry about being overpowered by some blind thing.

The biggest official in Bingzhou is his backer, who dares to suppress him?

After all, the Han clan clan could only make him not afraid of the Dragon Qi suppression, but they could not prevent the other party from using official positions to suppress others.

This is the truth behind the so-called official rank that kills people.

If it weren't for Zhang Liao's support, he wouldn't even be qualified to talk to Wang Qiu. This is the importance of the right to speak.

"It seems that Ding Yuan is not the kind of person who is jealous of talents, right?"

After this conversation, Liu Ye did not dare to say that he knew Ding Yuan particularly well, but he could basically see Ding Yuan's character.

How should I put it? I can't say that I am a virtuous person, but I am not even close to being a villain.

Such a person should not deliberately suppress him because he is afraid that Lu Bu will steal his military power.

Moreover, if we really want to suppress him, we should not give Lu Bu the status of Bo.

In modern times, this status is equivalent to the secretary of the provincial party committee and an absolute confidant.

It can be seen that Ding Yuan still values ​​Lu Bu very much, but at most there is something wrong with the direction.

"Sir, Governor, I have something that I don't know whether to say or not?"

Taking this opportunity, Liu Ye decided to ask Ding Yuan on behalf of Lu Bu what he thought.

If there is any misunderstanding, it would be better to clear it up, lest Lu Bu would be accused of patricide in the future.

But by the way, Lu Bu seems to still recognize Ding Yuan as his adoptive father, right?

Anyway, Liu Ye had never heard Lu Bu call Ding Yuan his adoptive father.

It seems that because his biological son was not dead, Ding Yuan did not have the idea of ​​adopting an adopted son.

"General Liu, there is no need to be cautious, but it doesn't matter if you talk." Ding Yuan behaved quite freely.

"I heard that General Lu is the most powerful in the world, and he has even earned the title of the Grassland Killer God among the barbarians.

Isn't it a little inappropriate for such a peerless general to hold the civil service of chief registrar? "

Before this, Liu Ye would not have dared to ask so directly.

But since an offensive and defensive alliance had been reached, and Ding Yuan was trying to curry favor with him both inside and outside his words, Liu Ye simply went straight to the point.

I don't think the other party will fall out with him because of this, so this cooperation is too fragile.

After hearing Liu Ye's words, Ding Yuan's face showed a complicated expression.

After a long silence, he slowly spoke: "General Lu is indeed the most amazing and talented person in martial arts that I have ever seen.

However, the long period of killing has also caused General Lu to gradually have the murderous intention in his mind. If he continues, he may die unexpectedly in the future. "

"I made him the chief clerk because I wanted him to calm down his temperament and use his literary energy to cleanse the murderous spirit in his body, so as not to become a reckless man who only knows how to kill but doesn't know how to plan."

Speaking of Lu Bu, Ding Yuan's tone sounded like he hated iron.

After all, manpower is exhausted. On the battlefield, with military formations, no matter how strong a general is, he will become a weakling.

As strong as the overlord Xiang Yu, he ended up committing suicide in Wujiang River.

【I see. 】

Although Liu Ye was a little surprised, he had to admit that what Ding Yuan said made sense.

In fact, if the Golden Wheel of Merit had not been able to eliminate karma, he would not have dared to massacre the barbarians wantonly.

The so-called karma is not some mysterious energy, but a kind of spiritual pressure.

Although killing barbarians has no psychological burden on Liu Ye, killing for a long time will eventually have a certain psychological impact.

This is also the reason why camp roars often occurred in ancient times. After all, there was no such thing as psychological counseling in ancient times.

Of course, people with a strong will may fare better, but they can't bear to kill too many people.

Liu Ye didn't know what exactly Lu Bu had killed the barbarians, but if he thought he could get the title of the grassland killing god, he might not be able to stop him.

After all, he himself had killed more than 10 barbarians and barely earned the title of Night Butcher, which was far worse than the God of Killing.

This shows how strong Lu Bu's will is.

He does not have the golden wheel of merit to eliminate the murderous intention, so he has to resist everything by himself.

But if Lu Bu is really allowed to kill so recklessly, not only will he become obsessed, but at least his temperament will change drastically.

From this point of view, Ding Yuan's transfer of Lu Bu away from the battlefield was not only blameless but also meritorious.

That's right, how could Ding Yuan, who had the magical ability to see the slightest thing, fail to see Lu Bu's problem.

Thinking of this, Liu Ye bowed to Ding Yuan and said, "Your Majesty, the governor has good intentions, and I am deeply ashamed."

Liu Ye did this gift both for himself and for Lu Bu.

"Haha, I just hope General Lu can understand my intention in the future." Ding Yuan smiled and helped Liu Ye up.

Naturally, he had heard about the relationship between Liu Ye and Lu Bu, otherwise he would not have told Liu Ye this today.

There are certain things that he, the client, should not say, lest he be suspected of bragging.

But with Liu Ye as the middleman, that's not a problem.

……

After sending Ding Yuan out of the inn, Liu Ye was about to go to Mi Zhu to learn about the follow-up work of the auction, when Lu Bu's handsome face suddenly appeared in front of him.

Liu Ye was so frightened that he almost took out the euphorbia and gave him a blow.

"Uh, General Lu hasn't left yet?"

"You are very good."

After saying these incomprehensible words, Lu Bu strode out of the inn.

"What do you mean?"

Liu Ye looked confused, and then realized that this person was probably eavesdropping on his conversation with Ding Yuan?

"That's fine, you don't have to repeat it again."

Smiling and shaking his head, Liu Ye found Mi Zhu who was looking through the ledger.

Judging from the joy on his face, you can tell that this auction will make a lot of money.

But these have nothing to do with him. He came here this time just to ask how many people have opened memberships. This is related to whether the auction house can operate stably.

After all, no matter how rich the Mi family is, it is impossible to support one auction after another by itself. After all, other people must participate to form a virtuous circle.

Liu Ye's mental expectation was that more than 10 yellow-level members would be enough. However, the answer Mi Zhu gave made him realize what it means to be rich and not money!
