"What do you mean?" Liu Xie looked at Guo Jia in surprise. In his impression, Xun Yu should be loyal to the Han Dynasty. Although he is currently under Cao Cao, if he issued an edict himself, he might not be able to attract Xun Yu.

But looking at Guo Jia's words, it is obviously unlikely to attract Xun Yu through this method.

"Some people of the great clan sometimes have many things that cannot be controlled. If Your Majesty issues an edict, I guess that Wen Ruo will probably be grateful to Your Majesty for your appreciation, but they will find reasons to refuse or delay, and will not have a quarrel with Your Majesty directly. But as long as Cao Cao is still there, Wen Ruoduan will not come to sue." Guo Jia looked at Liu Xie and shook his head.

He knew Xun Yu, just as Xun Yu did not mention asking him to serve as Cao Cao after learning that he was loyal to the court. Now Xun Yu will not come to the court.

Of course, if one day Cao Cao was defeated, even if Liu Xie didn't say it, he would help Liu Xie give advice and poach Xun Yu, but it was definitely not now.

Liu Xie did not ask any more questions when he heard this. Although he was a little regretful, he knew that top talents like Guo Jia and Xun Yu had a strong subjective view and had their own unique views and ideas about the world, and could not be forced.

The first year of Xingping is not very meaningful to the princes in the world, and at most it is just a beautiful thought. However, the imperial court conquered Xiliang, which is a dangerous signal for the princes in the world, which means that the court has already had a certain ability to attack the princes.

The court has mastered great justice, which is something that no princes have. Once the court attacks the princes of Guandong, they will be at a disadvantage in terms of great justice.

More importantly, although Lu Bu has not returned to the court yet, the extinction of the Hu people has begun to spread throughout the world to the west of Yinshan Mountain by eight thousand iron cavalry. There are mixed praises and criticisms about Lu Bu's behavior. Some people think that Lu Bu is the reincarnation of the champion Hou, while others think that Lu Bu's killing is too heavy and will not be able to end well. However, in any case, this battle completely launched the banner of the court and proved the military power of the court to the world.

However, the court's actions made these princes relieved. The court began to farm with great fanfare. Hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep were distributed to various places, either rewarding meritorious soldiers or using them to plow oxen, but most of them were kept in captivity. As an animal husbandry, it provided a steady stream of meat for the army. If there was a surplus, it would be sold to the people. If anyone could see the business opportunities, the court would not mind encouraging them.

In addition, the court also encouraged private workshops to develop ploughs, water wheels and other things. The entire Guanzhong and Xiliang area are vigorously encouraging workers and peasants. It seems that the court currently pays more attention to people's livelihood than military affairs, which also makes the princes in the world breathe a sigh of relief. After all, once the court begins to conquer the world, the current situation of separatist vacancies may have to be reorganized.

But immediately afterwards, all the princes began to speed up their pace.

Everyone can see that once the rear of the court is stable, it is almost a foregone conclusion that it is necessary to expand yourself as much as possible while weakening the influence of the court.

After the beginning of spring, Yuan Shao in the north began to turn defense and attack, and began to covet the land of Youzhou. In the Central Plains, Cao Cao pressed forward step by step. Even with the support of Taishi Ci, he still could not defeat Cao Cao, who was unstoppable. The situation in Pengcheng was becoming more and more dangerous.

After learning about the court, Yuan Shu, who was entrenched in the south, began to increase his control over the Jiangdong area.

Jiangdong, Danyang.

Sun Ce bid farewell to his uncle Wu Jing and came out of the prefect's mansion and returned to Qu'a. He had just entered the city, but he heard a tiger roar, like a tiger. The whole Qu'a could hear the violent sound in the sound.

Sun Ce's expression changed, and he quickly accelerated his horse and ran towards the mansion. As soon as he arrived outside the mansion, he saw his second brother Sun Quan and his clan brother Sun He stumbled and rolled out of the mansion in a mess.

"What's wrong with the third brother?" Sun Ce turned over and dismounted, looked at the two brothers and said with a wry smile.

"Brother, the situation is not good." Sun Quan stepped forward and looked at Sun Ce with a wry smile and said, "The third brother has been crazy more and more recently, and even the doctors he invited have been beaten to death by him. Now, the doctors in the entire Danyang are like avoiding the tiger and leopard when they hear the third brother's medical treatment."

"Forget it, some quack doctors can't see him well," Sun Ce sighed and waved his hand.

"Brother, you'd better go and see him. In this world, no one can get close to him except you, your younger sister and your aunt." Sun He looked at Sun Ce with a wry smile and said, "If you start crazy now, even if you are a younger sister, you can't do anything to him."

"Yes." Sun Ce nodded, handed over the reins to his family, and brought Sun Quan and Sun He into the mansion.

With the death of Sun Jian, the Sun family gradually declined. Although Sun Ce was gradually being valued in Yuan Shu and now it has been restored, the mansion is not big. Deep in the mansion, Sun Ce asked someone to open a courtyard and specially hired craftsmen to use iron to create a solid and huge cage with wooden boards around it. In addition to the door being locked, it looks more like a wooden house.

But at this moment, when Sun Ce arrived, the wooden house had become riddled with holes. There was a beautiful woman and a girl wearing short beatings standing in front of her. At this moment, the girl was pointing at the wooden house with one hand on her hips and scolding: "Okay, three, my mother and I are kind enough to see you, but you are cruel to us."

"I...I didn't mean it, little sister, can you let me out? I feel uncomfortable here." There was a young man locked in the wooden house. Judging from his appearance, he looked a little similar to Sun Ce, but the expression on his face was a little reckless.

"You have killed several people. Isn't it harmful to let you out?" Although the girl is young, she is not afraid of this young man who is as fearful as a tiger for many adults.

"I didn't mean it. Who told them to be so indifferent? I just pushed it a little and the person flew away." The boy scratched his head and said bitterly.

"The child has met his mother." Sun Ce stepped forward and first greeted Mrs. Wu with Sun Quan.

"My son gets up quickly." The beautiful woman reached out to help her, let Sun Ce get up, and looked at the young man trapped in a cage, and looked at the face of a sad look: "My Sun family, I don't know which god I provoked. I thought that the golden sun was born from heaven and was blessed by God, but who thought that my son would become like this."

When Sun Ce heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. When the golden sun came down from the sky, he thought it was a good omen. Who would have thought that his third brothers had become stronger and stronger since that day. However, the ten-year-old boy was so powerful that he was scary. Even Sun Ce was not his opponent with his feet, but in contrast, his intelligence was shrinking. He was already a ten-year-old man, but he was more and more like a child. At the beginning, Sun Ce could barely control him, but as time went by, Sun Ce gradually overtaken his strength. After all, he was his own younger brother. Sun Ce could not really use weapons. In the end, there was no way. After Sun Yi killed a few servants, in order to avoid the restlessness of the family, Sun Ce could only make such an iron cage and lock him in.

"Brother, you are back." Sun Yi tried hard to squeeze his head out in the iron cage. At this moment, he found that many places of the solid iron cage had been bent by him.

Looking at his brother, but he could only be locked in such a cage, Sun Ce felt a little sad and nodded and said, "Third brother, don't mess around."

"Brother, this cage is really uncomfortable. I want to go out. Can you accompany me to practice martial arts?" Sun Yi looked at Sun Ce pleaded.

Looking at Sun Yi's begging gaze, Sun Ce's heart softened and nodded and said, "Come on, open this."

"Bo Fu, this..." Mrs. Wu looked at Sun Ce with some concern. Sun Yi's strength was getting stronger day by day. Sun Ce had already said bluntly that his strength was no longer as good as Sun Yi. Now the two of them were going to practice martial arts. Mrs. Wu was really afraid that Sun Ce would be injured by Sun Yi like those servants.

Sun Ce is now the pillar of the Sun family. If there is anything wrong with each other, then the Sun family may not be able to maintain their current life.

"Mom, it's okay." Sun Ce shook his head and smiled: "Third brother is a human being. He has been locked in a cage all day long. Over time, he will be crazy. Moreover, the third brother has this divine power. In the future, he will be a tiger general for my Sun family."

While speaking, someone had already stepped forward to open the cage. Sun Yi had to get out of the cage and suddenly rushed out of the cage, roaring to the sky with excitement.

"What's the name!" The young girl stepped forward and kicked Sun Yi, but she almost fell down, and her eyebrows stood up: "You scared your mother."

Upon hearing this, Sun Yi looked at Mrs. Wu carefully, and then glared at the girl fiercely.

"Why are you glaring? I'll let you eat next time." The girl was not afraid at all, and put her hands on her waist and said with a crisp voice.

By the way, Sun Yi was not afraid of heaven or earth. Even when he was about Sun Ce, he was more respectful than fear, but he was a little scared of this sister from the bottom of his heart. He immediately shrank his neck when he heard this.

"Okay, third brother." Sun Ce shook his head, turned his head to look at Sun Yi and said, "You can follow me and wait until I finish handling military affairs, and then accompany you to practice martial arts."

"Oh." Sun Yi nodded, and except for the cage, he was much more at peace and stopped talking.

"I'm going too." When the girl heard that the two were going to practice martial arts, she lit up and shouted.

"Little sister." Sun Ce turned his head and looked at the girl, his eyes were full of power without anger.

"If you don't go, don't go, why are you fierce?" The little girl curled her lips. Her tricks were useful to Sun Yi, but they were useless to face this majestic brother. Seeing Sun Ce staring at him, she had to hide behind Mrs. Wu, and poke his head and grimace at Sun Yi.

"Mom, the child still has some things to be busy, so he will leave first. As for the third brother, I will follow him for the time being and be a personal guard." Sun Ce looked at Mrs. Wu and bowed.

"Go to my son. Men should focus on career. Don't think of us, women and children." Mrs. Wu nodded and looked at Sun Ce with satisfaction and said.
