System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

"For those who are useful to him, he would condescend to his status, patiently recruit them, win their hearts, and make full use of their abilities."

"But if it's useless or can't be used, he will definitely make you live a life worse than death."

"Sometimes, I am also curious about how a man like the Prime Minister could give birth to such a child."

Jia Xu put his hands in his sleeves, with an expression of emotion on his face.

He was also an old man under Dong Zhuo, but he had always been unwilling to reveal his strength, thus keeping himself in a mediocre position in the army.

He is not needed to charge in tough battles, nor is he needed in small battles.

I always thought I could survive like this, but ended up being targeted by Dong Yu without knowing why.

"Having such a person as the master is a blessing for those who follow him."

"The indecisive are not worthy, the brave but foolish are not worthy, and the cruel and merciless are even less worthy."

"Although we've only met once, I can tell that this boy is brutal towards his enemies, but quite lenient towards his officers and generals."

"This is a good thing. With time, you can become a powerful leader."

"Tell me about our business. Where did I lose?"

Ju Su nodded in agreement and then asked about his own concerns.

“When a person is hard to target, find a way to target the people around him.”

“You can be invulnerable, but not everyone is.”

"Although Shen Pei has a strong character and is upright, he lacks any great talent. He can govern a region with integrity and good governance."

"But if you hold a high position, it will be a disaster for your colleagues."

"My lord said this, and I think it makes sense."

“People are always willing to use their power to do their best to embarrass others, thereby demonstrating how authoritative they are.”

Jia Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Sometimes, being too upright is not a good thing.

Especially when this person is a politician.

People who are too upright will definitely have a temper as hot as fire.

If you can't tolerate any grain of sand in your eyes, it will inevitably lead to tragedy.

"Although Shen Pei possesses the demeanor of a famous scholar of ancient times, but... alas."

Ju Su sighed and was too embarrassed to say the rest.

Death is a big deal.

The other person is already dead, and it is not gentlemanly for him to say anything derogatory about him.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, people valued the gentlemanly character and there were many upright, loyal and righteous people.

This is a romantic sentiment left over from the pre-Qin period.

This kind of romance had always been a source of pride and admiration among the ancients before King Xuan of Sima farted.

"Thank you for letting me know, sir."

"Knowing where he lost, Ju Su died without regrets."

Ju Su slowly stood up and bowed to Jia Xu.

"I told you, you can't die."

"If I were you, you might as well take up a sinecure, not for others, but for your family and clan."

"If you are determined to die, it would be like slapping General Dong in the face."

"You were first a minister to Han Fu, then a minister to Yuan Shao. Why can't you be a minister to the Dong family?"

"Even if you don't want to, you can still be a minister of the Han Dynasty."

Jia Xu looked up at Ju Su who bowed to him and persuaded him.

Main Hall

Dong Yu had just dealt with the prisoners and then arranged the important task of city defense.

As for why he didn't immediately capture the rest of the counties and cities in Jizhou, it can only be said that his military strength was a little insufficient.

Although some of the defenders in Yecheng surrendered, he could not trust them too much.

It will take at least some time to digest the results of this battle and resolve all worries before we have the opportunity to fully capture Jizhou.

"My lord, Cui Yan and the others are here again!"

"I can't stop them, and I'm too embarrassed to beat them up."

Dian Wei ran over quickly and clasped his fists towards Dong Yu.

"Why are you here again?"

"Can't you let me take a break?"

"After being drenched in rain for several hours, they went home to wash and change into dry clothes, but I'm still wet."

"Let them wait outside the mansion."

Dong Yu frowned and said impatiently.

Cui Yan and his gang are the key to Dong Yu's next attempt to seize Jizhou.

If we can bring aristocratic families like Cui Yan to our side, the significance will be enormous.
