Chapter 2444 Ridicule

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Shen Rong is now the head of the Shen family, and Liu Zhe also has an official position, which is not a very powerful one.

    Maybe everyone doesn¡¯t know Shen Rong, but his uncle is very famous.

    Shen Rong¡¯s uncle is Shen Pei.  Shen Rong was deceived by Yuan Shao and insisted on defending Linzi, Qingzhou, but was tricked by Shen Rong in the end.

    When Jia Xu and Liu Xin's army besieged the city, Shen Rong secretly opened the city gate of Linzi and betrayed Shen Pei.

    Because of his meritorious service, Shen Rong saved the Shen family. However, because of his poor abilities, he could only serve as the governor of a small city under Liu Zhe.

    But even so, Shen Rong also benefited from Liu Zhe's reward. Although his official position did not change, he got rewards.

    Although it is not as good as others, it is much better than Xu You who has not gained anything.

    Seeing Shen Rong, Xu You wanted to turn around and leave the banquet.

    When he was following Yuan Shao, he had dealt with Shen Rong.  At that time, he won Yuan Shao's trust. At that time, he was high-spirited, had a high self-esteem, and did not put others in his eyes.

    Shen Rong was just Shen Pei's nephew at the time and had no real power. Of course, he was not looked down upon by Xu You, and was inevitably despised by Xu You.

    It can be said that Xu You and Shen Rong have old grudges.

    Xu You came to Youzhou earlier than Shen Rong and hugged Liu Xin's lap, and was later trusted and reused by Liu Xin.  He is now the prefect of Ninghe City, responsible for the navy's logistics and equipment, and is considered the number one figure in Youzhou.

    "Compared with Xu You, Shen Rong is nothing to mention. Liu Zhe can remember Xu You's name and knows who Xu You is, but does not know who Shen Rong is.  The two cannot be compared.

    So Shen Rong was very jealous of Xu You, and he was extremely jealous, wishing that he could replace Xu You.

    He also secretly found someone to tear Xu You down and replace him with Xu You's place.  But Xu You has always won Liu Xin's trust, and no one can shake his position.

    Today, Shen Rong felt happy when he saw that Xu You had not received any reward. He thought this was a sign that Xu You was not reused, so he found an opportunity and came over, ready to ridicule Xu You.

    "What are you doing here?"

    Xu You was unhappy when he saw Shen Rong and said coldly: "Is this a place where you can come?"

    No matter what happens to Xu You, he is still the governor of Ninghe City. Compared with the small city where Shen Rong serves as the governor, it is much more important.

    The two have different identities. During the banquet, they could not meet each other even though they were 800 miles apart.

    In other words, where Xu You was staying, Shen Rong was not qualified to come.

    "Haha, Lord Prefect."

    Shen Rong smiled with a smile on his face, his eyes flashed with gloating, and hehehe said: "Now is the time for everyone to communicate."

    Xu You also saw it, it was really true.

    It is now the second half of the banquet. Liu Zhe and his important ministers continue to drink in the hall, while those outside have begun to move around freely.

    This is a good opportunity for everyone to communicate with each other. Lower-level officials can take the opportunity to get to know and curry favor with senior officials, and senior officials can also take the opportunity to expand their influence among lower-level officials.

    After a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere became lively and everyone was happy.  Liu Zhe was crowned king. If they were promoted or made rich, what else could they be unhappy about?

    Shen Rong came to Xu You, making people who didn't know the truth think that the two were having a friendly exchange.

    But in fact, the two of them almost came to a fight.

    Shen Rong was jealous of Xu You's current status, but Xu You didn't like Shen Rong. Shen Rong had spoken ill of Xu You in public several times, showing his hostility towards Xu You.

    Xu You really wanted to deal with Shen Rong, but he didn't dare. Too many people were watching his position, and he would be caught if he made the slightest mistake.

    Xu You doesn¡¯t want to throw away everything he has now for Shen Rong.

    "This prefect has nothing to communicate with you, so get out." Xu You said to Shen Rong rudely.

    "Oh, Prefect Xu is still so arrogant."

    Shen Rong sneered and said, "Don't you take a young eunuch like me seriously?"

    "Humph, don't even think about sowing discord here. I don't mean that. I just don't want to talk to someone like you who betrays my uncle." Xu You said coldly.

    Shen Rong¡¯s words just now can be described as vicious, as he wanted to pit Xu You against the governors of other small cities.

    Selling out Shen Pei has always been a disgraceful thing in Shen Rong's heart. Xu You's words immediately hurt Shen Rong.Shen Rong's face turned red immediately, but he still endured the anger forcefully.

    "Humph, at that time Princess Ninghe once praised me for my righteous action of annihilating my relatives. Is it possible that Prefect Xu has any dissatisfaction with the princess?"

    Xu You was startled, and his words were even more vicious.

    "Your righteous killing of relatives has nothing to do with me. I have nothing to say to you." Xu You didn't want to talk to Shen Rong anymore.

    He knew that Shen Rong came to him to mock him, and he didn't want to give Shen Rong a chance.

    But Shen Rong had already spoken out. He said, "I look down upon you. Such a noble Prefect Xu, I wonder what reward you will get this time?"
