.    Chapter 362 Lu Suzhi

    One day later, Mi Zhu walked into the Prefecture Mufu and saw Zhen Yao immersed in handling official documents. He slowly stepped forward and said in a low voice, Your Majesty, your blessing is with you. Also coming with him was Lu Su, the envoy from Jiangdong.  "

    "Who? Who is the envoy from Jiangdong?" Zhen Yao didn't pay attention for a moment, put down his pen and looked up and asked.

    Mi Zhu had no choice but to report again that the envoy from Jiangdong was named Lu Su. It was said that this person was on good terms with Zhou Yu and was highly valued by Sun Jian.  "

    Zhen Yao rubbed his chin and smiled expectantly. Please arrange for Lu Zijing to stay and let Sun Qian come to see me first.  "

    "No." Mi Zhu bowed in agreement, then exited the hall and walked out of the house.

    Sun Qian didn¡¯t let Zhen Yao wait for too long, but he had already appeared in front of Zhen Yao with just half a cup of tea.  He bowed slightly and recounted the story of his trip in detail, and also selectively mentioned a few things he saw and heard in Jiangdong.

    Zhen Yao nodded with satisfaction. "Gongyou, you have had a hard time on this trip. Please rest first. When you summon Na Lu Su tomorrow, you will come again."  "

    When Sun Qian clasped his fists and left, Zhen Yao couldn't help but secretly thought: Sun Jian seemed to attach great importance to this 'deal', and actually sent Lu Su to deal with it.  No, although he and his soldiers were important, they would not cause Lu Su to come to Xuzhou.  Lu Zijing must have other tasks when he comes here this time, and the most likely purpose is to spy on the enemy.

    Thinking of this, Zhen Yao called in the guards standing outside the hall and whispered to them. After hearing this, the latter nodded in agreement. After walking out of the hall, he took ten or twenty brothers with him and put on ordinary clothes.  The clothes came out of the door and they quietly ambush around the post house where Lu Su lived.

    The truth is just as Zhen Yao expected. After several days of hard work, he arrived at Tancheng, but Lu Su did not have a good rest in the post house.  After only sitting for most of an hour, I walked out and wandered around the city aimlessly.

    It wasn't until the sun set that Lu Su returned to the post house, and the head of the bodyguard who was responsible for secretly tracking him also returned to the Prefecture Mufu and reported to Zhen Yao's ear that Lu Su's people's residences and shopping malls in the city were all in one day.  Even in our military camp, he watched from a distance.  "

    ??Zhen Yao frowned slightly, had she ever known that he had met or spoken to anyone?  "

    The guard shook his head in annoyance and said that he was not following him too closely and did not hear what he said clearly.  There were far more than a hundred people and merchants who had conversations with him that day, and it is really difficult for us to know them all.  "

    "Forget it, let's go down." Zhen Yao immediately waved his hand and did not blame these soldiers. After all, the person they were following was the rare wise man in Jiangdong. If he really got the message from him, then Zhen Yao would feel strange.

    From the moment Lu Su entered the city, the contest between Zhen Yao and him had actually begun. The envoy did not summon him immediately when he entered the city. It was Zhen Yao who wanted to cool Lu Su.  Zhen Yao was also frustrated when Lu Su spent the day trying to find out all sorts of news about Tancheng.

    On the first day of the confrontation, Zhen Yao and Lu Su were victorious. When the sun rose in the east on the second day, when Sun Qian and Mi Zhu led Lu Su to the Prefectural Mufu, Zhen Yao could not help but curl up the corner of his mouth. He was Zhou Lang's best friend.  Jiangdong Lu Zijing?  "

    "Su, I have met General Zhen." The name Lu Su is quite interesting. Everyone knows that Zhen Yao is the lord of Jizhou, and they usually call him Zhou Mu.  However, Lu Su used the title "general" to secretly remind Zhen Yao that in terms of military positions, he and Sun Jian were on the same level.

    Hearing this, Zhen Yao raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing here?"  Could it be that we also know that Wentai is a tiger general in the world and not the emperor of the world, and he wants to surrender to Xuzhou?  "The meaning of these words is also very obvious, that is to say, I am not a simple general, but a great prince who controls the three states. I am not comparable to Sun Jian, a fierce man trapped in Jiangdong.

    When Lu Su heard this, he tilted his head and said, "The general is joking. Don't you know that 'a loyal minister will not serve the two masters'?"  What's more, my Lord governs Jiangdong and the people live in peace and unity. How can he not be a wise Lord?  "

    Seeing that Lu Su was talking about the situation where Xuzhou had just been conquered and had not yet been able to unify the people, Zhen Yao coughed and frowned, saying that with think tanks like Zijing in Wen Tai, there was indeed hope for hegemony.  { Hands, fight {{Bar.First.post} But today** I don¡¯t want to talk about these, let¡¯s talk about something practical. Since Brother Wentai agreed to my request, I don¡¯t know when will it be fulfilled?  "

    Lu Su shook his head and said, "Su has not seen my young master and the general, how can I give you an answer?"  What's more, the general was the first man to redeem his captives with money. If my lord cannot pay for the money and food, I wonder what the general will do to me, Jiangdong's son?  "

    "In that case, let's go see Sun Ce first before talking about anything else." Zhen Yao couldn't answer easily. Who said Lu Su was honest? His language was sharp and aggressive, and he was digging holes everywhere, just waiting to jump down.

    Since Zhen Yao ¡®played¡¯ Huang Gai once in the military camp, he arranged for people to invite these two important guests out of the military camp.  Just like when Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were placed in Wuji, they were trapped in a small courtyard.  But as a prisoner, to have this kind of treatment is to stand in a smallLu Su, who had not yet entered the house outside the courtyard, couldn't help but nod secretly. At least Zhen Yao was very proud in this regard.

    "Zijing?" When Lu Su entered the room, Sun Ce was competing with Huang Gai in the courtyard. When he saw the person coming, he immediately looked happy. How could Zijing be here?  Come on, please sit down." He stepped forward and pulled Lu Su to sit on the wooden bench in the courtyard, but he regarded this courtyard as his own home.

    "How?" Zhen Yao followed Lu Su and walked in, smiling at the same time and saying that the general said that if the two of them lost a pound of meat, they would not be abused.  You see, Bo Fu is in such good spirits now that even the soil and water of Jiangdong cannot support him.  "

    Lu Su wisely chose to ignore Zhen Yao's innuendo, secretly hiding his inner emotions, and said to Sun Ce, "Young master, it is the master who ordered Su to take you back to Jiangdong."  "

    Sun Ce and Huang Gai were both happy when they heard that they could return to Jiangdong. Although they had nothing to do, they had made plans. If Zhen Yao didn't kill them, there would definitely be a chance.  Now that the opportunity has come, how can Sun Ce not be surprised that what Zijing said is true?  Did father really send you to pick us up?  "

    Although it seemed like a question, it was actually just a sigh of disbelief at the news. At this moment, Huang Gai was quite calm and asked in a low voice: Master, did you agree to Zhen Yao or pay a price to let me have a relationship with you?  Opportunity?  "

    Lu Su didn't want to answer at first, but Zhen Yao smiled and said, "Gongfu has a quick mind, so it's okay for Yao to tell you."  "Immediately he told me about the 'deal' with Sun Jian, but after saying it, he evoked a smug smile.

    The content of this transaction is really unbelievable. Sun Ce immediately shouted in shock, how could this happen?  How can I let Xuzhou know the secret of Jiangdong?" But he didn't care whether Zhen Yao was around.

    There are some things that Lu Su cannot say in front of Zhen Yao. Compared to Sun Ce, who was a young man, Huang Gai knew better. He pulled Sun Ce's arm, shook his head and said, young master, don't worry, the master has his own plan.  "

    Zhen Yao didn't pay much attention to these small actions, but he looked at Lu Su with a hint of compulsion. Now that people have seen it, can they also give me a guarantee?  Otherwise, it would cost a lot of money to feed them every day, and Yao might have to raise the price again."

    Lu Su nodded in disbelief and asked General Zhen again, where is my son Jiangdong now?  Can Su go and have a look?  "

    "That's what you said," Zhen Yao shook his head and smiled. Yao will accompany you for a walk around the city today, so that you can know the difference between me, Zhen Yao, and Sun Wentai.  Bo Fu, Gong Fu, you two should just stay in this room and have a good time. Goodbye."

    After saying that, he turned around and left with a puff of his sleeves. His expression and actions made Sun Ce hate him, but he had nothing to do with Zhen Yao.  Even though Zhen Yao did not bring an entourage with him when he entered this small courtyard, in fact, the moment he stepped into the courtyard, dozens of crossbowmen hidden around him silently aimed their weapons at Sun Ce.  As long as a person is slightly biased, he will definitely be in a situation of death and no life.

    Just like Sun Ce and the two who were isolated, in order to facilitate the transfer work in the near future, these Jiangdong Erlangs who were captured on the battlefield were all set up in separate camps by Zhen Yao to guard them.  When Zhen Yao brought Lu Su to the prison camp, a trace of disappointment flashed across Lu Su's face. He originally thought he could take this opportunity to walk around Zhen Yao's military camp, but he didn't expect Zhen Yao to be wary of even this.

    Although not all of these Jiangdong men have met Lu Su, many of them still met him during the Battle of Xuzhou, who shouldered the important task of military advisor.  Seeing Lu Su and Zhen Yao walking in together, many people looked at them, as if they were wondering why their military advisor was here.

    After Lu Su walked into the camp, he looked around the perimeter, and then walked into the captive soldiers to ask or chat.  Zhen Yao was just like a bystander, following him as if it had nothing to do with him, but he didn't bother Lu Su at all.

    The small camp was less than half a mile in radius, and Lu Su couldn't walk far even on cat steps.  An hour later, the two came to the general's tent in the camp. Lu Su took the lead and asked, "Dare you ask the general, why are there many soldiers in this camp who are not my descendants from Jiangdong?"  It¡¯s not a Koto accent either?  If it weren't for the fact that they were wearing Jiangdong clothes and armor, Su would not believe that they were my Jiangdong sons.  "

    "This?" Zhen Yao smiled when he heard this. Don't worry too much. Do you remember that your lord integrated the Guangling garrison when he attacked Xuzhou?  Although most of the captured soldiers in the camp were descendants of Jiangdong, there were also soldiers who surrendered from Guangling.  But regardless of whether they are originally from Jiangdong or Guangling, they are all under the Wentai tent. Does Zijing know what I want?  "

    Lu Su's body trembled slightly when he heard this, and his expression changed all over. In the end, he had to cup his hands and say, "The officers and men in Su's lord's tent would like to thank the general for his righteous deeds."  "At the same time, I secretly thought, I don't know if these descending soldiers are a blessing or a curse.

    Of course, apart from the so-called surrendered soldiers of Guangling, among these prisoners, there are also indispensable agents and spies assigned by Zhen Yao.  You and I know these things, but we cannot bring them to the table to discuss.  Zhen Yao got the advantage and laughed secretly in his heart, but Lu Su could only break his teeth and swallow blood. He had to take this secret loss even if he didn't.

      That night, Zhen Yao was in a good mood and held a banquet at the Prefecture Mufu. In name, it was to welcome Lu Su, but in fact, it was to let all the civil and military officials share the joy.  Naturally, Lu Su was not interested in this kind of "Wind Wind Wine". He stuffed some food into his mouth as if chewing wax at the beginning, excused himself from being tired and left, returned to the inn and started writing a letter to his lord.

    In Tancheng, Zhen Yao and the civil and military officials were having a good time, while in Xiapi City, Cheng Hong also held a banquet just to entertain his two daughters, Mi Zhen and Lu Lingqi.  During the most difficult period, because of the material and financial support from the Mi family, he lost a lot of gray hair.

    Now, the harvest time has come, and every family in Xiapi is restless as they see that the Mi family controls more than 80% of the county's business.  People came to me one after another to buy back their shops and land.

    Cheng and Mi originally bought the land for only one hundred gold, but now it has been sold for at least four to five times.  And even such a high price could not stop the enthusiasm of the merchants and scholars. It was true that one was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer.

    After this exercise, Mi Zhen not only learned a lot, but she was also able to take a few sips of even the smallest amount of wine.  Seeing Cheng Hong treating the two of them with such courtesy, he raised a glass and said to his uncle. Tomorrow his niece will leave for Guangling. I would like to toast my uncle and hope that the Mi and Cheng families can continue to cooperate like this for a long time.  "

    "My nephew is very polite, you are very polite." Cheng Hong smiled when he heard this. His uncle is old now. He needs his nephew to take more care of his business affairs in the future. Please"

    Under the peaceful Xuzhou, one person couldn't sleep in a busy man.  who?  Naturally, it was Xu You who was ordered by Zhen Yao to investigate Xia Pi's assassination again.  Although Zhen Yao didn't say much that day, he was so smart that he could naturally hear a lot from it, and his lord did not think that what he found out was correct.

    Out of confidence in his lord's powers of observation, Xu You began to question the captured assassin openly or covertly, directly or aside from the side.  But at this time, half of the assassins who had been very honest after being captured bit their tongues and committed suicide.  Half of these assassins were contacted by Xu You again, which means that they committed suicide decisively after Xu You's second interrogation.

    Why did these assassins not commit suicide when they were first caught, but made suicide attempts when they were tortured for the second time?  Obviously, Xu You first thought that these guys were trying to cover up certain facts, which meant that his previous inference was probably wrong.

    Half of the assassins died, but half of them were left. Naturally, Xu You would not let them die easily again.  After that, Xu You no longer considered resting. How could Xu You sleep peacefully without finding out more about this matter?

    "Could it be the person behind the last assassination of the lord?" At this moment, Xu You thought of the assassination of Qian Zhenyao in Julu a few months ago.  But after thinking about it, I felt it was impossible, but the methods and abilities of these two groups of assassins were more than a little different.  If these people were the accomplices of the rangers who assassinated Zhen Yao, not to mention one Mi Zhen, even ten of them would have been killed.

    "These are now pretending to be dead soldiers under Cao Cao's tent. It seems that if you want to get rid of them, you have to start with Cao Mengde." Xu You looked at the dagger with the name 'Cao' engraved in his hand. This is the organic weapon of Cao's soldiers.  Not being able to tell the slightest truth from these words at the moment made Xu You think about other things, and it happened that there were many bases for Cao Ying's elaborate operations in Xiapi and Pengcheng.

    " Two days later, Mi Zhu hurriedly arrived at the Prefectural Mufu Mansion. News came from Xiapi that the younger sister and the mistress had begun to leave for Guangling."

    Zhen Yao was naturally very clear about what happened in Xiapi. He originally thought that it would take at least three months for these two girls to achieve anything, but he didn't expect that in only ten and a half months, Xiapi and Pengcheng had already settled down. He immediately laughed and said, "Zizhong has someone?"  imgsrc&39;>risk?br>

    Mi Zhu immediately bowed and said, "My little sister has been used to playing tricks since she was a child. The credit for her success this time is all due to her lord Hongfu."  "

    When Zhen Yao heard this and waved his hand, he could decide for himself whose contribution it was. Zizhong, what¡¯s going on with Na Lu Su recently?  "

    Mi Zhu thought for a moment and replied, "To report to my lord, Lu Zijing has been in the post house for the past two days except for sitting with Sun Ce for a while after lunch every day. He has not done anything inappropriate."

    Zhen Yao nodded slightly, thinking in his mind that Lu Su probably did this because he realized that he couldn't get any more information no matter how hard he peeked.  Calculating the days, he should have sent the news in the city back to Jiangdong. When will Sun Jian send what he wants?  "

    Zhen Yao was concentrating on his thoughts, and Mi Zhu didn't dare to disturb him. She could only stand aside and wait for Zhen Yao to speak.  At this moment, outside Yinling City, a convoy that was one mile long was slowly driving northeast, and the leader was none other than Jiangdong's new general Ding Feng.

    Ding Feng first came to prominence in Sun Jian's camp during the water battle between Jiangdong and Jingzhou Navy a few months ago.  Gan Ning originally thought that Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were the only generals in his tent, but he did not want to face Huang Zu's generals in a water battle again., Ding Feng suddenly emerged and brought a great victory to the Jiangdong Navy.

    Therefore, Ding Feng walked into Gan Ning's eyes, and after some examinations and battlefield training, Gan Ning felt that such a general should be recommended to Sun Jian, so Ding Feng came to Yinling with an uneasy mood.  .

    ?Perhaps it was because of the examination of the new generals, or because he did not want to send out his generals to show that Zhen Yao was weak.  In this case, Ding Feng was appointed by Sun Jian as the Jiangdong representative for this Xuzhou transaction, and his task was to pick up Sun Ce, Huang Gai and a group of Jiangdong soldiers.

    Ding Feng was worried but a little excited when he was favored by his lord Sun Jian for the first time. Therefore, the tragic boy happily accepted the order and led the convoy to Xuzhou without thinking carefully about the twists and turns.  But he didn't want to think about what responsibility he would have to bear if he went on a business trip in the future if he took the soldiers who had Xuzhou's secrets back to Jiangdong.

    Let¡¯s not mention Ding Feng, who is on his way to Xuzhou at the moment, but just say that Mi Zhen and Lu Lingqi, who had just left the border of Xiapi and had not had time to approach any of the cities in Guangling County, received an order from Zhen Yao, ordering the two of them.  When returning to Tancheng, there is no need to go to Guangling.

    Looking at this edict sent by Zhen Yao's personal guard, Lu Lingqi was a little confused. Why don't we go to Guangling?  "

    "Maybe, little sister." Mi Zhen thought for a moment, shook her head and smiled and said that now, except for Guangling, the other counties in Xuzhou are stable.  How can Guangling alone stand against the other four counties?  Now all it takes is an edict from Zhou Mu, and the Guangling Chamber of Commerce will respond automatically, so you and I don¡¯t have to go through all the hard work.¡±
