Chapter 336 Xu Shu’s Opportunity (Chapter 3)

Xinye, on the avenue near the prefect's mansion.

A carriage was surrounded by numerous guards and drove on the aisle.

On the carriage, Liao Li was sitting.

Recently, Liao Li was very proud and became the chief clerk. Liu Bei was also very polite in his treatment, with many followers and concubines.

Just like now, there are more than ten armored guards around the carriage. A few months ago, Liao Li was just a famous scholar with a reputation and a wealthy family.

Logically speaking, Liao Li should be more satisfied with all this.

But this is not the case. Liao Li was very talented and knowledgeable. He was not inferior to Zhuge Liang, but his position was always under Zhuge Liang.

Under the jealousy and hatred in my heart, I often sing the opposite tune with Zhuge Liang.

Even though he felt that Zhuge Liang was right in his heart, Liao Li said the slander that Zhuge Liang was wrong.

Just like the war between Liu Feng and Sun Quan, Zhuge Liang said that the victory and defeat were difficult to distinguish, but he said that Liu Feng would definitely lose.

It was to meet Liu Bei's preference. However, when news of the current war came back, Liao Li found that the fact was not the case at all.

Liu Feng won, and it was a great victory. The navy rushed straight into the sky, burning dozens of ferries and several cities. What is it if it was a great victory?

The navy, Liu Feng's navy, actually directly attacked Jiangdong.

If it were a few months ago, who would have believed it, but it happened.

Previously, Liao Li threatened that Liu Feng would lose, but in a blink of an eye, Liu Feng actually won. Although Liu Bei didn't say anything, Liao Li secretly suspected that Liu Bei might alienate him.

The only thing that is thankful is that Zhuge Liang was wrong, and Zhuge Liang once said that Liu Feng would tie Jiangdong, which was also wrong.

However, Liao Li still felt that Zhuge Liang's threat was too great and he would eliminate it as soon as possible.

If you want to do it, you must be a confidant. Liu Bei’s special counselor.

With a ruthless heart, Liao Li ordered: "Let's go to Xu Shu's mansion."

"No." The leader of the follower responded to No and turned to the Xu Mansion as Liao Li ordered.

The Xu Mansion is still the same mansion, but it is no longer as prominent as it was before.

Although Xu Shu was still in charge of a military advisor, Liu Bei had completely abandoned Xu Shu in some important matters.

This is all because of the person Xu Shu and Liu Bei hated. Liu Feng had a strong relationship, and teachers and students were almost comparable to father and son in this era.

Liu Bei had to alienate him and beware of Xu Shu.

Now Liao Li wants to unite Xu Shu to confront Zhuge Liang and fight for power and profit. According to Liao Li’s idea, Xu Shu should be a victim of power struggle and should have the ambition to regain his own power.

The carriage soon arrived at Xu Shu's mansion.

Now even during the day, the door of the Xu Mansion is closed, and there is not even a guard standing guard in front of the door, which shows that it is in a downturn.

Liao Li became more confident in his plan.

"Go and knock on the door." Liao Li said to his entourage.

"No." The follower responded and stepped forward to knock on the door.

Soon the door opened a gap. When the gatekeeper heard that it was Liao Li, the chief clerk, came in and reported immediately.

In the study room, Xu Shu sat in the main seat and read a book.

He was wearing a casual outfit and looked very leisurely. He was not as down-and-out as outsiders imagined, but his style of a famous scholar became stronger and stronger.

Only the occasional flash of light in your eyes will make people notice that Xu Yuanzhi is still Xu Yuanzhi.

A man who threatens to help the monarch, establishes a domineering career, and has a peerless and talented personality.

Xu Shu has been neglected for a year, but the reason why Xu Shu did not seem lonely is because of his good mentality. Over the past year, Xu Shu has read a lot.

I feel that my imagination and knowledge have been greatly improved, and I have improved my self-cultivation.

In the past, Xu Shu was not well-educated and could not achieve complete reluctance. When he encountered angry things, he would be angry. However, Xu Shu felt that he could not do anything now.

This is very important.

If I can re-enter the official position one day, my role will be greater. Xu Shu thought in his heart. Since he re-entered his official position, he would not consider Liu Bei again.

Xu Shu is now considering his disciple, Liu Feng.

At present, the news of Liu Feng's victory did not reach his ears, and Xu Shu didn't even know that Liu Feng was fighting with Jiangdong.

No one told him. But he believed that Liu Feng could solve any difficulties he encountered.

During the three years of teaching Liu Feng, Xu Shu developed confidence in this disciple. Over the past year, Liu Feng's almost rocket-like growth rate made Xu Shu trust this disciple.

Liu Bei was alienated from Xu Shu, and Xu Shu was also desperate for Liu Bei.

At this moment, the concierge came to report that Liao Li came to ask for a meeting.

Xu Shu was surprised. Liao Li had heard of him and met him several times, but there was no intersection.

This is nothing strange. His current identity is embarrassing, and Liao Li is Liu Bei's close minister, so he naturally has to draw a clear line with him.

It is strange that Liao Li suddenly came to the door to ask for a meeting.

"Open the middle door, please come in." Although it was strange, Xu Shu didn't want to be rude. Xu Shu said.

"No." The concierge responded and quickly opened the middle door. Xu Shu walked out of the study and greeted Liao Li outside the door.

After a while, Liao Li walked in. Liao Li first looked at Xu Shu and saw that Xu Shu was not down and had a noble temperament, and his heart became strange.

Didn’t this person lose his power? Logically, a real man should not be powerless for a day. At this moment, Xu Shu should be in a downturn and lonely way.

While Liao Li was looking at Xu Shu, Xu Shu first met him, smiled and raised his fist and said, "Prince Liao is wrong to welcome him."

"Sir, so polite." Liao Li first bent over and bowed, then smiled and said, "Come uninvited and be a bad guest. Don't be a quarrel."

This response made Xu Shu look at Liao Li one point too.

"Haha. Talk inside first." Xu Shu laughed and bent over and led his head.

"Thank you." Liao Li nodded and walked in calmly.

After the two entered the study and sat down with each other, Xu Shu ordered the maid to add tea.

After raising his glass and taking a sip, Liao Licai smiled and said, "This is here to tell sir something."

"Oh? Why do you need to inform Zhuzhu Liao in person?" Xu Shu said in surprise.

"Hehe, this is called the chief clerk, but the gentleman is apart. If Yuan Zhi refused to give up, he would just call me Gongyuan." He smiled first, and Liao Licai said: "Just just heard news that General Yang Wu, Liu Feng, raised an army to attack Jiangdong, and the navy burned countless ferries in Jiangdong and returned with great victory."

"Do you have external help?" Xu Shu frowned.

"No, Cai Mao didn't move." Liao Li said with a smile.

This was really unexpected. Liu Feng occupied Jiangxia for a short time and his foundation was not solid. The navy was not strong and there were not many warships. He could actually suppress Jiangdong.

What's going on?

Seeing Xu Shu being surprised, Liao Li smiled slightly and said, "The benefits of warships."

Xu Shu nodded and felt relieved. Warships are also a kind of external force. If the warships are much more advanced, they can really surprise them.

However, now that Cao *** is heading south, the disciple is an enemy of Jiangdong.

It was very unbeautiful to fight with lips and teeth. Pang Tong did not persuade him. Immediately, Xu Shu became a little complaining about Pang Tong.

After all, Xu Shu has been separated from Liu Feng for a year, and he doesn't know how strong and arbitrary Liu Feng is now.

Fighting Cao *** and attacking Sun Quan. Jiang Wan never persuaded Pang Tong, but in the end, Liu Feng attacked strongly and won.

Liu Feng's confidence and ability were cultivated in this process.

"Now Liu Feng is booming, and he is at the peak of the sky. But his lord is still living in Xinye. I wonder what Yuan Zhi felt?" Liao Li suddenly asked in deep thought.

"The region is not good, and the situation is not good." Xu Shu felt good about Liao Li, and was not prepared and answered casually.

"No." Liao Li shook his head and said he was a little heavy: "The lord was as prestige as the sky, but now the rivers are getting worse. The battle in Wancheng has caused even more loss of troops and generals."

"What does Gongyuan mean?" Xu Shu noticed some differences and frowned.

All of them are so obvious, and they are pretending to be stupid.

Everyone works together to move to Zhuge Liang, and then divide the power into two things. How can they play stupid?

He cursed in his heart, but Liao Li smiled slightly on his face and said, "Zhuge Kongmingzhi's county is not bad, but he will be slightly worse. On the contrary, he will be slightly better."

As he said that, Liao Li paused and said unsatisfiedly: "It was the gentleman who asked Kong Ming to come out of the mountain, but now Kong Ming holds the power of civil and military affairs, and everything has to be passed by him. However, the gentleman was alienated by his lord, as if he was idle at home. It really makes people feel ashamed."

But these words are already very explicit.

Xu Shu frowned when he heard this. Liao Li was right. Zhuge Liang's existence was the reason why Liu Bei was directly alienated, because Liu Bei felt that someone could replace him.

But this does not mean that Zhuge Liang excluded him. On the contrary, Zhuge Liang is a very generous person.

Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang had a good personal relationship.

Everything is still because of Liu Feng.

Liao Li was half puzzled, but he used the heart of a villain to judge a gentleman's adolescent.

Moreover, Xu Shu had already heard that Liao Li was obviously jealous and hated Zhuge Liang, but he knew that he had no strength to compete with Zhuge Liang and wanted to join him to move to Zhuge Liang.

But he had to come up with such high-sounding reasons and slander Zhuge Liang first and provoke his anger.

Being a human being is really shameful.

If it were a year ago, Xu Shu would have been furious and drove Liao Li away. But now Xu Shu's cultivation has improved a lot.

Although he was angry, he had a faint smile on his face and said, "Gong Yuan has found the wrong person. I have no ambitions and think the current situation is also good."

Liao Li touched a soft nail and immediately became unhappy. His face also became ugly.

He needed to pretend to be elegant in front of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, but Liao Li could not pretend to be elegant in front of Xu Shu who had lost his power.

"Since that's the case, I'll say goodbye." Liao Li said coldly, and immediately got up and left.

I feel cruel in my heart, but I am just a military advisor who loses power. Why are you proud? Since I don’t eat the toast and drink the punishment, I will drive you away first.
