"Ziyuan, what do you think about this?"

Because of the last war with Cao Jun, Yuan Shao didn't listen to Xu You's words, but suspected that Xu You had contacts with Cao Cao, so he put Xu You in prison.

As a result, the army he led suffered a disastrous defeat, and almost lost Jizhou, which was wiped out by Cao Cao.

In my heart, Tian Feng, Ju Shou and others are not very optimistic about them. Yuan Shaojue's Xu You is a real talent.

So Yuan Shao learned to be smart this time, and he thought it was better to ask Xu You for his opinion before making a decision.

When Xu You heard Yuan Shao's question, he didn't answer immediately, but thought for a moment, and then said:

"This is a good thing for the lord, but for some people, it's not so good."

When Yuan Shao heard what Xu You meant, he seemed to agree with the conditions of the aristocratic family, so he asked:

"Oh~? Who will this matter be bad for? Ziyuan, hurry up and tell me."

Xu You showed a look of embarrassment, and then said:

"My lord, this incident has violated the interests of some people under my lord's command."

After Xu You finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao didn't ask any questions this time, but just motioned Xu You to continue. Seeing this, Xu You continued:

"Think about it, my lord. The counselors and generals under my lord's command are not from aristocratic families. If my lord accepts so many aristocratic families, I will definitely draw out talented people from among them to serve my lord."

"However, if the lord has more counselors and generals, will some people's rights be taken away? At that time, those counselors or generals will definitely not agree with the lord to do so."

Yuan Shao nodded when he heard Xu You's words, and began to think. Before Yuan Shao could say anything, he heard Xu You continue to say:

"If so many aristocratic families can rely on the lord, the subordinates can be sure that even Liaodong Liu Xuan will not be the lord's opponent, and the world can only belong to the lord."

Xu You added another strong medicine to Yuan Shao, because Xu You knew that in Yuan Shao's heart, he actually looked down on Cao Cao, and the only one in the world who could stand up to Yuan Shao was Liu Xuan from Liaodong.

If Yuan Shao could get the chance to suppress Liu Xuan, then Yuan Shao would definitely not let it go.

I was thinking about how to tell the counselors and generals under my command, but when I heard Xu You's words, I said:

"Ziyuan, it's up to you to handle this matter. Tell those families that I have agreed to their conditions. If they can bring other families from other states and counties, then I can assure them that I am ready to attack Liaodong at any time." .”

When Xu You heard this, he opened his mouth and said:

"My lord, why don't you discuss this matter with those counselors and generals?"

Yuan Shao waved his hand directly after hearing this, and said:

"I am the lord. Could it be that I can't be the lord of these things? Why do I have to give them an explanation? Why do I need their consent before I can do this?"

"Today's matter, I personally decided. If what those aristocratic families say is true, then what awaits me is the unification of the whole world."

When Xu You heard this, Yuan Shao was really arrogant enough to think that with the support of the aristocratic family, he could do whatever he wanted and dominate the world, which is simply ridiculous.

But Xu You didn't show anything, he still looked at Yuan Shao with a worried look on his face, and said:

"My lord, what should I do if those counselors and generals don't agree with my lord to do this?"

After hearing this, Yuan Shao laughed, and said:

"Ziyuan, Ziyuan, if you can handle this matter well, I have so many families in my hands, am I afraid that there will be no talents? Is there no one who can lead troops to fight?"

Xu You also smiled after hearing Yuan Shao's words, and said to Yuan Shao:

"What the lord said is that when the time comes, the lord will have a large number of talents who are willing to serve the lord. If the subordinates do this now, the lord will definitely be satisfied."

Yuan Shao nodded happily, and said:

"Okay~! Ziyuan, if this matter can really be done, I will designate you as a military adviser in the future~! Hurry up and get this matter done."

Xu You bowed his hands to Yuan Shao, smiled and said:

"Thank you, my lord~! This subordinate will definitely finish this matter. At that time, the lord can directly destroy Liu Xuan and Cao Cao. The whole world will be in the lord's pocket. The subordinate will go to do things for the lord now." .”

Yuan Shao nodded in satisfaction. The more he looked at Xu You, the more he liked him. Of course, it wasn't that kind of liking. Yuan Shao liked women.

Xu You slowly exited the room where Yuan Shao was, and then returned to his residence.

After Xu You returned to his mansion, he saw Liu Ye. At this moment, Liu Ye was waiting for Xu You to return in the room where Xu You had a drink with him yesterday.

After the two met, Liu Ye saw Xu You came back, stood up quickly, and asked Xu You:

"Ziyuan, what's the matter? Did Yuan Shao fall in love with you?"

When Xu You saw Liu Ye, a smile appeared on his face, but Xu You didn't answer Liu Ye's words, but went straight to his seat, and asked his servants to bring tea quickly.

After Xu You finished his tea, he looked at Liu Ye with an anxious expression on his face, smiled and said:

"I went to Yuan Shao's mansion this time. I discussed this matter with Yuan Shao alone. At the beginning, Yuan Shao was a little hesitant, but when I said that those families who took refuge in him would bring new families from other states and counties to join him, Yuan Shao was tempted right then."

When Liu Ye heard what Xu You said, he didn't quite understand it, because what Liu Ye and Xu You discussed at the time was to make a fuss about these new families from Jizhou, and let them force Yuan Shao to fight Liu Xuan.

How could the plan change after going out for a trip?So Liu Ye hurriedly asked:

"Brother Ziyuan, this remark made Liu a little dizzy. Why did you involve a family from another county this time?"

Xu You heard Liu Ye's question and said:

"Zi Yang doesn't know something. This time I discussed this matter with Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao heard that the aristocratic family asked him to send troops to attack Liaodong immediately. He didn't agree. Let me tell the aristocratic family that he would attack Liaodong, but no. specific time."

"Yuan Shao was just trying to delay the time until he was strong enough to fight Liaodong before sending troops to Liaodong."

Having said this, Xu You drank another cup of tea, and then continued:

"If I don't change the plan temporarily, I'm afraid I won't be able to persuade Yuan Shao to attack Liaodong now, and it's also for the sake of Meng De's great cause."

Liu Ye nodded after hearing this, and asked:

"Brother Ziyuan, how did you plan? Will those aristocratic families listen to you?"
