Chang'an, Situ's Mansion, backyard.

Xun Yu stood quietly at the steps with his hands. The air was filled with a faint fragrance of plum blossoms, but there was no plum blossom in the yard. The corners were clean and there was not even a small tree. It was not a false statement that Yang Situ was so happy that he didn't like these beautiful things.

The plum blossoms were probably planted in the yard next door. Yang Situ could not see them, but could not ignore them. With his temperament, he did not dig up the flowers with his roots. It should be that Mrs. Yuan likes flowers, so Yang Situ could only endure them.

Xun Yu was thinking about his thoughts while sighing secretly. A few days ago, he received a message from Yang Xiu. Sun Ce accepted the edict from Yuan Yao to serve as the prefect of Nanyang, but was very disgusted with Yang Hong. Yang Hong, the county magistrate, probably wouldn't do long. Yang Xiu suggested appointing Yan Xiang as the prefect of Nanjun and Zhang Xun as the prefect of Jiangxia. He jointly controlled the three counties of Jiangbei in Jingzhou with Yuan Yao to provide cover for Yuan Yao. This was indeed a good suggestion. Xun Yu had this intention, so he came to discuss with Situ Yang Biao, but was rejected by Yang Biao.

Yang Biao felt that it was inappropriate to do this. Yan Xiang and Zhang Xun had limited talents, and they had all surrendered to Sun Ce. Even if they were appointed as prefects, they might not be grateful to the court. Instead, they encouraged Sun Ce to control Jingzhou. Xun Yu did not compete with Yang Biao. Yang Biao was a senior minister and a pillar of the court he pushed to the front. He must give Yang Biao enough respect and unite.

A few days later, he came to discuss this matter with Yang Biao again. Yang Biao asked someone to lead him to the backyard, but he never showed up. The backyard was quiet, and the servants and servants were also in a hurry and spoke very little, as if something big had happened.

Xun Yu felt uneasy. Yang Biao was loyal to the court, respected, shrewd and capable, and was a rare minister. He took some effort to make Yang Biao replace Wang Yun and had high hopes for him. If something happened to the Yang family now, it would have a great impact on his plan. In a short period of time, it would be difficult for him to find a similar candidate.

Just when Xun Yu was nervous, a light cough came from inside, and Yang Biao walked over. He was tall, with a straight facial features, a beautiful beard, which was both elegant and majestic.

"Wenruo, come." Yang Biao walked to the steps, waved his hand with a smile, and greeted Xun Yu enthusiastically. He was an elder and was the leader of all officials. It was a great courtesy to be able to do this. Xun Yu did not dare to be negligent, so he thanked him, went to the hall, and greeted Yang Biao again.

"Mr. Yang, I'll come today..."

"Wenruo, I know why you came. However, the message you received last time is incomplete."

Xun Yu was stunned and bowed, "I'd like to ask Mr. Yang for advice."

"Actually, it's nothing, it's a private matter. Dezu broke the military order and was beaten fifty rods. He got along very unhappy with Sun Ce. Alas, I should have thought of this at the beginning and reminded him repeatedly, but he didn't expect that he still didn't take it to heart."

Xun Yu was shocked. He understood why Yang Biao hadn't come out just now.

Yang Xiu is very smart, knowledgeable, talkative, and with his kinship with Yuan Yao's sisters and sisters, he should be able to get along with Sun Ce happily. Sun Ce would definitely not accept Yang Hong, but he should not reject Yang Xiu. Then he would withdraw Yang Hong and appease Sun Ce's emotions. Yang Xiu could stay in Nanyang smoothly and stay with Yuan Yao. After a few years, Yuan Yao became an adult and assembled Yuan Shu's old subordinates, he could form a restraining force within Sun Ce. Nanyang returned to the court and the southeast of the court would be safe.

Now, Sun Ce is unruly, whether to be gentle or coercive has become their differences.

"What Mr. Yang said is reasonable, but it is not advisable to fight easily. If you fight, you will win. Otherwise, you will lose your troops and be humiliated and will be damaged in the face of the court."

Yang Biao looked slightly at the head. "Tomorrow's court meeting, discuss with Huangfu Yizhen to see if he has the power to fight and then make a decision."
