As there weren't many entertainment activities, Lu Yu thought of his own way. He wrote down the requirements and got someone to get a deck of poker cards. He and Diao Chan and Cai Yan would play Fight the Landlord and eat hotpot when they had nothing to do.
In the blink of an eye, it was the fourth year of Chuping.
Cai Yan came to Lu Yu with a piece of paper with words written on it.
"Boyu, look at what's written on this.”
Cai Yan handed the paper to Lu Yu, looking forward to Lu Yu's reaction.
She thought of the words written on the paper, and her beautiful face was full of smiles.
"What's so funny?"
Lu Yu took it and glanced at the words on it. His expression immediately froze, but he quickly recovered.
"What did Runan Xu Shao say about you?”Cai Yan asked with a smile.
Xu Shao of Runan.
He was the person who commented on Cao Cao as a capable minister in a peaceful world and a treacherous hero in a chaotic world. It had been passed down for two thousand years and was well known by everyone.
At the beginning of each month, Xu Shao would comment on contemporary characters, poems, calligraphy, and paintings, which was also known as the monthly review.
No matter who it was, once they commented on it, their value would be a hundred times higher, and it would spread in the secular world as a beautiful story.
Therefore, it was famous far and near and flourished for a time.
It was rumored that there was a story behind Cao Cao's comment.
Xu Shao originally looked down on Cao Cao and did not want to comment on him. Cao Cao was thick-skinned and pestered him relentlessly. Xu Shao had no choice but to comment on Cao Cao as " a capable official in a peaceful world and a treacherous hero in a chaotic world."
Now, Xu Shao actually took the initiative to write a review for him?
"Boyu, you haven't said what you feel after reading this review!”Cai Yan asked.
"If he wants to comment, let him."
Lu Yu threw the paper aside and did not care.
There were a few words written on the paper.
"A person with a glib tongue and no ambition.”
Lu Yu's appearance made Cai Yan frown slightly, and she muttered,""It's not fun at all. I thought you would be angry after seeing this.”
Lu Yu had known Cai Yan since the first year he came. It had been four years since then, and the two of them were very familiar with each other. Therefore, they did not have any scruples when they spoke.
"When have you ever seen me angry?" Lu Yu pulled Cai Yan into his embrace and allowed her to sit on his lap. He smiled and explained the reason to her.
"When you see through the essence of many things, you will no longer show your emotions on the surface.”"Let me ask you, where is Xu Shao now?" Lu Yu asked.”
"I heard that Xu Shao went there because Xuzhou was relatively peaceful.”Cai Yan said after thinking for a moment. The whereabouts of these celebrities were basically public information, so it was not difficult to know.
"Then who is the person in charge of Xuzhou?" Lu Yu asked again.
"Tao Qian." After Cai Yan said the name, he was somewhat enlightened.
"Then what was the matter between us and Tao Qian in the third year of Chuping?”Lu Yu continued.
The moment he said this, Cai Yan immediately came to a realization!
In the third year of Chuping, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao went to war. Yuan Shu asked Gongsun Zan, a fierce man in the northeast, for help. Gongsun Zan joined forces with Tao Qian to threaten Yuan Shao.
Cao Cao naturally couldn't watch his big brother Yuan Shao get attacked.
As the saying goes, when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao attacked together and defeated Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian.
Lu Yu did not participate in this battle.
Thinking up to here, Cai Yan also understood.
This was a dirty trick.
"You mean Xu Shao is attacking Cao Gong this time? Tao Qian's instructions are inside?" Cai Yan asked.
On the surface, he was attacking Lu Yu.
However, a person with a glib tongue and no ambition was rumored to be Cao Cao's most favored strategist.
In other words, Cao Cao's judgment of people was not good. People of insight in the world had to think twice before they wanted to rely on Cao Cao.
"It doesn't matter if it's Tao Qian or not. Xu Shao probably won't be able to resist a hint from his subordinates.”Lu Yu said.
Lu Yu thought that he had some reputation, but it was definitely not enough for Xu Shao to take the initiative to comment.
I'm afraid that Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is aimed at Liu Bang.
After listening to Lu Yu's analysis, Cai Yan poked Lu Yu's head and asked curiously,""Sometimes, I really wonder if you're different from us.”
Just as Lu Yu was about to say something, someone walked in.
Unsurprisingly, it was Cao Cao and Cheng Yu.
"Boyu is in a good mood."
Cao Cao teased when he saw the two of them being so intimate.
Seeing that the three of them wanted to discuss something, Cai Yan took the initiative to avoid them.
"Yuan Gonglu has come to attack us. He has joined forces with Jin Shang, the governor of Yanzhou appointed by the Imperial Court, the remaining troops of the Black Mountain Army, and Yu Fuluo of the Xiongnu.”
After Cao Cao entered the room and sat down, he took the initiative to speak before Lu Yu could ask.
As if recalling Lu Yu's question at the Yellow Turban Army, Cao Cao continued,""I think Yuan Gonglu's goal is to eliminate us as Yuan Benchu's allies.”
It was different from the purpose of the Yellow Turban Army marching into Yanzhou.
Yuan Shu's goal was even simpler, he wanted to destroy Cao Cao.
It was impossible for them to use the tactics of the Yellow Turban Army.
Lu Yu's eyes lit up when he heard that Yuan Shu wanted to beat Cao Cao.
Finally!
In the past, they fought against the Black Mountain Army and the Yellow Turban Army.
In fact, many people called them Black Mountain Thieves and Yellow Turban Thieves.
These were all raiders, mountain bandits, and refugees. If they were to fight for hegemony, these people would not be able to do so without a guiding principle.
After that, Cao Cao's opponents were all vassals!
The first opponent was Yuan Shu and Yuan Gonglu of the four generations of the three dukes of Runan Yuan Family!
Lu Yu's face showed some interest.
"Yuan Gonglu isn't a threat. We should be wary of Tao Qian.”Lu Yu said.
Hearing this, Cao Cao was slightly shocked.
Tao Qian's Xuzhou was adjacent to Yanzhou.
However, Cao Cao did not hear the news of Yuan Shu and Tao Qian working together!
Could it be that Lu Yu had a source of information?
Both of them looked at Lu Yu with questions.
