Two days later.

Zhou Yu led his army back to the capital together with Lu Su.

Although Zhou Yu said that he didn't need to care about it at all, it wasn't until Lu Su told about the state of the people in Jiangdong when Zhou Yu just came back.

Now Zhou Yu had to come back next time.

Although Zhou Yu is conceited, he is also well aware of his current situation.

Although this estrangement plan is not shrewd, but his position in Jiangdong seems to have surpassed the lord's, which is not a good sign!

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu had to simply arrange some drills, and then returned to Jiangdong with some soldiers and Lu Su.

As soon as he entered the city, Zhou Yu noticed something was wrong.

Jiangdong has always been a prosperous place, far from the people living in the north of the Yangtze River.

Here anyway, the streets have always been very bustling downtown.

But right now, there was no one on the street, but there were many soldiers in full armor, guarding the sidelines. Some people who entered the city from outside were strictly censored. If there was anything wrong, they would not be allowed to enter the city.

"Zijing, how could this be?"

Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes, and his face became gloomy.

Lu Su let out a long sigh:

"Oh, it's still too late..."

"Anyway, let's go to see the lord first, and remember not to go to the palace with a soldier of arms!"

Zhou Yu nodded, then got off his horse and went straight to Wuhou Mansion with Lu Su.

At this time, Lu Su was very uncertain.

Taking Zhou Yu back to Jiangdong this time, what Lu Su was most worried about was that Sun Quan would be punished with death when he was angry.

The battle is imminent, killing the general in the army, if this kind of thing happens, it will really follow Mr. Bai's way!

Zhou Yu didn't bow his head like Lu Su did, even though all the officials around him were talking about him, he walked forward with his head held high.

Zhou Yu firmly believes that as long as he has a clear conscience.

However, at this time, Sun Quan was not in the hall.

"Brother Zibu, why hasn't my lord gone to court?"

Lu Su was impatient, and slowly approached Zhang Zhao, whispering.

Zhang Zhao stroked his beard, sighed helplessly, and did not answer Lu Su.

This made Lu Su even more anxious. Just as he was about to speak again, he saw a figure appearing above the hall.

The lord is here!

Lu Su hurriedly pulled Zhou Yu who was beside him to kneel down.

Unexpectedly, Sun Quan did come slowly and helped them up:

"Gongjin is back? Don't be too polite! Just come back!"

"Recently, Liu Bei sent Zhuge Liang to join forces with our army to fight against Cao Cao. I'm not sure what to do. Gong Jin, let me tell you what you think."

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar!

Even Zhou Yu looked at Sun Quan in disbelief.

This... didn't mention the secret letter at all!

Lu Su's eyes widened even more, but the stone in his heart slowly fell.

It's okay, it's okay, the worst plan I made didn't appear.

The lord is still a Mingjun, and he did not pursue the matter at this juncture.

If not, Jiangdong will not be guaranteed!

Zhou Yu was ready to explain, and he really had a clear conscience, but Sun Quan didn't even ask, what's going on?

But now that Sun Quan asked the question, Zhou Yu didn't think too much, and bowed:

"My lord, according to my continuous observation on the front line, the Yangtze River is a natural danger for Cao Jun. Although Cao Jun is very powerful and says he wants to destroy me in Jiangdong, he doesn't have that ability!"

"If all the best soldiers are ambushed in the dangerous place of the Yangtze River, and there is a desperate fight with that Cao thief, Gong Jin will definitely kill Cao Cao and retreat to Jiangbei!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Zhang Zhao and others turned ashen.

What do you mean by that, isn't it just a fight?

In other words, Zhou Yu advocated an alliance with Liu Bei!

However, Zhang Zhao and other veterans, or most of the veterans in Jiangdong, are inclined to surrender to Cao Cao, so that the people will not suffer from the war.

Zhou Yu's words are tantamount to slapping these old officials on the face!

"Okay! As expected of Gongjin, she really has momentum."

Sun Quan laughed, then turned slightly sideways, no one saw him, a trace of coldness appeared in his eyes.

"My lord, I have one more thing to say, I hope my lord will accept it."

Zhou Yu cupped his hands.

Sun Quan waved his hand:

"Gongjin, but it doesn't matter."

Zhou Yu said:

"I heard recently that Zhuge Liang has been in Jiangdong for a few days, but no one cares about him at the station. This Zhuge Liang is an envoy after all. I think it's inappropriate to do this."

"If it gets out, I'm afraid it will be criticized by the world."

Lu Su on the side quickly tugged on Zhou Yu's clothes corner, screaming inwardly.

What do you mean by that? Isn't that a lesson to Sun Quan?

Sun Quan is the king, you Zhou Yu is the minister, how can you speak so bluntly? !

Hearing this, Sun Quan's face gradually darkened, but it was only fleeting.

Regarding Zhuge Liang's arrival, Sun Quan naturally knew about it, but something happened in Jiangdong, and Sun Quan really had no time to summon him.

Sun Quan laughed and said:

"I already knew what Gong Jin said, and I have already sent someone to invite Mr. Zhuge..."

"Report!"

At this moment, a soldier rushed into the hall in a hurry and nearly fell in panic.

Sun Quan's face became more and more ugly, and he said in a low voice:

"What is it?"

The soldier didn't dare to delay, and said out of breath:

"Report to my lord, that Zhuge Liang is not at the inn! The guards he carried with him also disappeared, and there is no trace of him!"

"What?!"

Sun Quan slapped the table and stood up straight away, his green eyes widened and he looked at the soldier.

The soldier didn't dare to raise his head, he bent down and wanted to bury himself in the ground.

Zhou Yu's face also became ugly.

Although I look down on Zhuge Liang, this coalition is a good thing, Zhou Yu is behind it, and now I have made a special trip to advocate the coalition, and others are gone? !

The soldier faltered and said:

"I searched the whole house and found only a note, but the person disappeared."

Sun Quan shouted in a low voice:

"Submit it!"

"Here!"

Seeing that the soldier was flustered, Lu Su quickly took the note from his hand and presented it to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan opened the note and frowned.

The ministers below immediately talked about it.

Especially Zhang Zhao and others who advocated surrendering Cao were filled with righteous indignation.

"This Zhuge Liang just left when I, Soochow, said it? What did you think of me, Soochow?"

"When I look at Zhuge Liang, I'm not sincere, I'm afraid it's just to test us!"

"Right now, the main task is to preserve Jiangdong..."

"..."

Zhou Yu, Lu Su and other main fighters remained silent, watching Sun Quan's expression quietly.

Lu Su whispered:

"Gongjin, Liu Bei needs this coalition more than we do. Why do you think Zhuge Liang left suddenly?"

Zhou Yu frowned and said:

"Could it be that we have neglected him?"

Lu Su quickly waved his hand:

"No, I know Zhuge Liang quite well. He definitely doesn't care about these people. In my opinion, something happened to Jiang Xia..."

"Hahahahahaha!"

Just as everyone was discussing the matter, in the hall, Sun Quan closed the paper and laughed.
