show_read);
Outside the mansion of Zhou Yu, the Grand Governor of Jianye.
"Brother He, please go!" The guard with a knife shouted at Yang Chen and others with a flattering look. The intimacy made people who didn't know think that the two were sworn brothers.
Yang Chen waved his hand and said he knew that the frame was getting further and further away.
Seeing Yang Chen and others leaving, the leader of the guard with swords put down his hand.
"I'm talking about it, what's the matter? Isn't it just a trait?" The guard with the knife next to him asked his boss hesitantly. He was also a little captain, and that person was just a servant.
"What do you know? Although that guy is just a dog, you have to remember that he is also a dog that can see his master or a dog that can see his master. If you are kind to this dog, it is equivalent to pleasing the master. Only by pleasing the master can we have a way out! Do you really want to watch the door here for the rest of your life?" The leader of the guard with sword asked his subordinates next to him.
"Of course I don't want to do it anymore!" Who would be willing to be a guardian for the rest of his life? This job is not easy to do? It sounds better than the one who is so ugly. Not only does it have no oil and water, but it also needs to have a good eye and insight. Maybe if you are like a sinner like today, who would be willing to do it here?
"Then we have to please him and let him take him out and enter the army!" said the leader of the sword guard with his eyes full of longing.
"Yes, yes!" The subordinate next to him looked like he was being taught.
"What's the noise? It's early in the morning." A middle-aged man walked out with an unhappy look on his face.
When he saw the visitor, the leader of the guard with swords hurriedly looked smiling again, "Butler Zhou, it's so early!" The middle-aged man is Zhou Yu's housekeeper, this person is an old man from the Zhou family. After Zhou Yu came to Jiangdong, he let this person manage the Zhou mansion. These guards with swords belong to the military on the surface, but in fact they are under the control of this manager Zhou.
"Butler Zhou, in the morning, it was because the head of the He family sent some fresh fruits and vegetables to say that he wanted to give the governor a try. The subordinates asked them to go through the back door and delivered them directly to the kitchen. Unexpectedly, they were shocked by Butler Zhou, you, the old man." The leader of the guard with a knife said with a smile on his face.
"He family head?" He quarreled with him, butler Zhou. He was originally dissatisfied, but when he thought that this was He Rui's person, the butler Zhou put away his anger and nodded, "This brother He is really interested."
He Rui is very good at being a human being. Although he is a family friend of the Zhou family, he condescends to associate with the butler peers in Zhou Yu's mansion. In this way, He Rui has a deep connection with the Zhou family. As the saying goes, the King of He is easy to mess with the little ghosts! He Rui gives this butler Zhou really much filial piety to this butler Zhou every year. So he did not continue to look angry.
"Have you gone to the kitchen?" Mr. Zhou continued to ask, because every time He Rui came, it would be beneficial to him Mr. Zhou.
"Yes!" The leader of the guard with sword nodded, "The King of Shu sent someone to send them!" The guard with sword was also showing his contribution.
"Well, you have a good job and you always have a chance to enter the military camp. I'll go and see!" Butler Zhou nodded and said, and was about to head towards the mansion. He wanted to meet the person sent by Brother He, because this means that the money was coming.
"Yes, yes!" The leader of the guard with swords was so happy that he received praise from Butler Zhou. He said to his subordinates next to him, "How about it, learn a little. It is because of them that we can really make a name for themselves!" The leader of the guard with swords was also complacent about sending people to Yang Chen and others.
"Boss is wise!"
When Mr. Zhou entered the mansion, he thought about heading towards the kitchen there. When he arrived at the kitchen, he naturally felt filial piety. Because of the difficulties in Jiangdong over the years, Mr. Zhou's income has been reduced by more than half. Now that the person who gave the money is here, he is naturally happy.
"Butler Zhou, Butler Zhou, Governor Zhou is looking for you!" A servant hurriedly ran over and said to Butler Zhou.
"The Grand Governor is looking for me?" Butler Zhou frowned and said, "What did the Grand Governor say he wanted to find me?" Butler Zhou was anxious to collect the money, but at this time his boss was looking for him.
"No, but the Grand Governor asked you to go quickly!" said the servant to Butler Zhou.
"I understand, I'll come soon!" Butler Zhou nodded. It seemed that he might not be able to collect money in the first place. However, butler Zhou was not worried. He could not escape the money there. If He Rui wanted to have a good relationship with the Zhou family, he had to handle some of it for him.
Butler Zhou changed direction and walked towards Zhou Yu's room.
...
"You guys are the back door here, and after entering, you will be the kitchen!" This sword-bearer was very enthusiastic. It was his head who asked him to come. And seeing his head looking at them, these people are noble people. If they serve them well, they will naturally have a great future.
"Okay, please trouble me!" Yang Chen thanked the sword guard who led the way.
"No trouble, no trouble. If nothing happens, I will go back first!" He still has to work there.
"By the way, how should I go to the place where the governor lives in the kitchen?" Yang Chen suddenly called out to the sword guard over there.
"Go to the place where the Grand Governor lives?" The guard with the sword repeated it a little hesitant.
"Yes, after we have sent the fruits and fruits, we have to obey the instructions of our head of the family to meet the Grand Commander." Yang Chen was dispelling the vigilance of the guard with swords.
"So that's how it looks. From the kitchen and then to here, it's hard to turn around. After walking here, you'll be here just by walking down here!" The guard with sword explained to Yang Chen and others.
"How can we understand that you have said so much? Please give us a picture!" Zuo Jie next to him made a bad thing again. As soon as he opened his mouth, the guard with a knife became professionally alert. He asked for the terrain map of the mansion, what did he want to do?
"No need for brother. If we can't find it, I'll just go find someone to take us there!" Yang Chen smiled and said, "You go and do your business!"
"Oh, then I'm leaving, goodbye to everyone!" The guard with the sword nodded. Although he was strange, he left without thinking too much.
"Young Master Zuo, will you use your brain to do things?" Yang Chen said to Zuo Jie a little angrily. In front of a guard, you want the topographic map of the entire mansion. Are you looking for death? Just like in front of the security personnel, you want the topographic map of the bank, wherever you put the vault and wherever you put the cash, there will be a ghost. At most, he can tell you that the front desk is there.
"Why don't I use my brain? You are just a servant. You dare to point fingers at me!" Zuo Jie also said with an unhappy look on his face.
"Enough is OK!" Lu Su stopped the two from continuing to quarrel. "We have something to do now, we are not here to quarrel, we will talk back when we have to quarrel! Mr. Zuo, have you forgotten your father's words?" Zuo Li said to Lu Su before leaving, asking Zuo Jie to obey Lu Su's words. If there is any violation, let Lu Su deal with it. In this way, the two did not continue to speak.
"Get the things on, it's time for us to take action!" Lu Su said to the two of them.
"Master, should we ask someone?" Yang Chen meant to catch someone and ask wherever he wanted.
"No need, I already know the way!" Lu Suke remembered all the words of the personal guard just now.
"Yes!" Very many fruits and fruits were cleared out, and from below these fruits were bright swords.
"Get to act!"
...
"Grandmaster, Governor, are you doing anything to me?" Butler Zhou came to Zhou Yu's door very soon. For Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou Yu was all about him. Zhou Yu's wound was scarred and someone needed to take care of him. As long as Zhou Yu was in one day, he, Mr. Zhou, would be filial to him for a day.
"Zhou Yi, what do you think of He Rui?" Zhou Yu sat in front of the table and asked Zhou Yi next to him with a frivolous Guzheng.
"He Rui? Head of the He family?" Butler Zhou looked at Zhou Yu's expression and couldn't help feeling a little panicked.
"The head of the He family and the chief governor are family friends, and the young ones dare not judge easily." Butler Zhou said carefully. No matter what, He Rui calls brothers and brothers to Butler Zhou, butler Zhou didn't dare to say that in the open. After all, He Rui and Zhou Yu are family friends. Zhou Yu sometimes calls He Rui Brother He. Do you, the servant, dare to call brothers and brothers to your master?
"If you tell me, just say, what's the use of me if you don't tell me!" Zhou Yu lowered his body and listened with his ears.
"This He Rui and He family head is loyal to the Grand Governor Youjia, and he is dedicated to Jiangdong and Wu Hou!" Butler Zhou said to Zhou Yu.
"Haha!" Zhou Yu smiled softly, but it made Butler Zhou unable to get the score. Although a smart master can make you have great benefits, he is also worried all day long because you have been seen through by others.
"It seems that my brother He has given you a lot of benefits. Zhou Yi, so that Zhou Yi can also say such good things to him!" Zhou Yu said with a smile to Butler Zhou.
This sentence scared Zhou Yi all over, "Grandmaster General, that is not a slave who wants to accept those gifts, it is Brother He. No, no, it is the master of He who is forced to put the jade antiques in the slave. I don't want that master He, and he will throw those jade antiques. So, the slave, and I have to accept it. I am loyal to the governor. I also ask the governor to understand." Zhou Yi was trembling. It is not a good job to serve others. If Zhou Yu really cares about it, Zhou Yi would not be able to take it away, so Zhou Yi kowtowed and shouted loudly.
"I don't want to deal with you, why are you kowtowing!" Zhou Yu shook his head. "Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi, sometimes you are smart, so I can take care of the Zhou family tutor for you with confidence. It's been pretty good over the years, but why did I find that you are a little stupid too! You don't think about not asking for my tacit approval, then He Rui dares to give you something, and he doesn't want my tacit approval. Can you accept those gifts? The big fish from the Shang and Zhou dynasties are beautiful, and it has been a history of thousands of years. It's worth hundreds of gold if you sell it." Zhou Yu said to Zhou Yi.
The more he talked about it, the more frightened Zhou Yi was. The last time He Rui gave him, he wrapped it in black cloth and put it in a box. The gift was very hidden. When the two met, they came from He Rui's hand to Zhou Yi's sleeve, but they didn't expect that the Grand Governor even knew this. However, Zhou Yi was also relieved, at least he didn't mean to do something to himself when he heard the Grand Governor's tone.
"Get up!" Zhou Yu said to Butler Zhou.
"I dare not!" Butler Zhou said in panic.
"What are you afraid of? You dare not listen to my order?" Zhou Yu asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes!" Zhou Yi hurriedly stood up. If he kneeled down again, he would be disobedient.
"I asked you to come not to tell you how many gifts He Rui has given you, but to ask how long it has been since He Rui's gift?" Zhou Yu asked Zhou Yi. He Rui gave Zhou Yi something to Zhou Yi. Zhou Yu saw that. He did not stop Zhou Yi from refusing. That was to give He Rui a chance to be attentive. People are a wonderful thing. If you are kind to a person and do not ask for rewards, then this person will be uneasy all day long, and it can even be said to be frightened. But if you accept his gift and go to help him, he will naturally feel at ease. Zhou Yu asked He Rui to help him with his work with peace of mind.
"This, this has been nearly half a month!" Zhou Yi said to Zhou Yu awkwardly.
"Half a month? It shouldn't be!" Zhou Yu frowned. Logically speaking, He Rui would not miss this opportunity to please Zhou Yi. Isn't he afraid that Zhou Yi will be angry if he doesn't give gifts for half a month? If you are used to giving gifts by one person, you will suddenly not give them, then this will offend people. Zhou Yi may not be able to help He Rui succeed, but there is still more failure.
He Rui, who had been giving gifts, suddenly stopped coming to show his attention for half a month, which made Zhou Yu feel strange. The documents sent by Zhuge Jin, Bu Lu and others said that some of the heads of the gentry were not coming forward, and they were all replaced by relatives in the family. Zhou Yu originally thought that this group of Jiangdong gentry was guilty and a little scared. After all, when the second prince attacked the lord Gongsun, they did not help but chose to stand by. They were afraid that the lord Gongsun Ce would settle them. But now it seems that this is not the case. Zhou Yu is understandable if others don’t come forward, but He Rui doesn’t come forward, which makes Zhou Yu feel something wrong.
You should know that He Rui is his confidant Zhou Yu. Even if the Zhang family is cleaned up, he cannot clean up his He family. He Rui is even an undercover agent who was involved in Zhou Yu's invasion into the gentry, but even He Rui will not appear. What is the reason?
"Young Master Zuo, please remember your father's words!" The man in black robe's voice was cold.
"Zuo Family, who are you? There are a few more families. I should have thought of it long ago. How could He Rui, such a diligent person, not come to my mansion for so long?" Zhou Yu said with a little laugh and cry. He Rui is a person who likes to show his presence in front of Zhou Yu. How could he suddenly disappear for ten days and half a month? To be honest, Zhou Yu is really a little uncomfortable without He Rui in front of him.
"Who else! In addition to your lackey He Rui, our Zuo family, Qu'a's family, the Hao family in Wujun, and Zhang Gong's Zhang family. Our Jiangdong gentry all want to rebel. You and Sun Ce and Sun Bofu!" Zuo Jie was very proud of his victory. No wonder Zuo Jie was as old as Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, but in terms of Chen, Zuo Jie, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, was a very different place. Sun Ce founded Jiangdong Jiye, and Zhou Yu was the governor of Jiangdong. In the past, Zuo Jie could only look up to these people. His father
Whenever he talks, he will talk to Zhou Yu and Sun Ce. What the Grand Commander like is like Wu Hou, has planted seeds in Zuo Jie's heart, which is a naked jealousy. If Zhou Yu and Sun Ce have always been arrogant, then Zuo Jie may not be like this, because Zhou Yu and Sun Ce have too many, and he can only look up and envy at most. But now, Zhou Yu has been knocked down from the altar, which is different. Now Zhou Yu has become his prisoner, and Zuo Jie's jealousy will burst out completely.
"He Rui is dead?" Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment. He thought He Rui would rebel with these individuals, but he didn't expect He Rui to die.
‘Yes! He was dead. Originally, He Rui wanted to rebel together, but in the end he actually retreated, so he had to kill him!” Zuo Jie said cruelly.
"Okay, Mr. Zuo, we have no time anymore, so we should hurry up and take Zhou Yu and Zhang Gonghui to get along." The man in black robe also spoke.
"You?" Zhou Yu felt very strange. He seemed to have seen the man in black robe in front of him and seemed to know him. However, Zhou Yu could not tell the name of this person, "We have seen him?"
The man in black robe did not answer.
"Do you want to take me to see the second young master?" Zhou Yu became cold and looked at the group of people.
"No chance!" Zhou Yu shook his head, "The lord now has 30,000 soldiers and horses. The second young master is just a prisoner now. What if he finds it out? The second young master will lose!" There is no chance of winning without soldiers and horses in front of absolute power by relying on conspiracies.
"This is not necessarily!" Zuo Jie said again, "So what about 30,000 soldiers? My uncle Cheng has three thousand elite soldiers in his hands, and Uncle Hao has five thousand soldiers left by General Yan Baihu. We also have two young masters who raise their arms and shout, and naturally Jiangdong and others respond to you. And you are the Grand Commander. I believe Sun Ce knows that you must submit in our hands." Zuo Jie said proudly to Zhou Yu.
"Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zibu! But I didn't expect that you, who have always been steady, will take risks!" Zhou Yu said coldly.
"There is no way, who told you to force Mr. Zhang too much? Just dismiss Zhang Gong's official position, but you have to force Mr. Zhang to go to Xudu. Sun Ce's energy has been exhausted." Zuo Jie sneered.
"Haha, even if I don't force Zhang Zibu, do you think Zhang Zibu will not rebel!" Zhou Yu smiled coldly. My lord treated Zhang Zibu like this, treating him with courtesy and his husband, but their Zhang family, as a foreign aristocrat, could firmly hold the position of the first aristocrat in Jiangdong. However, in the end, Zhang Zibu still wanted to go further. It would be a matter of time before such a person rebels, but he should not have been. I should not have made the lord be kind at the beginning, and should have taken action directly! "Zhou Yu said harshly. Zhou Yu was kind to Zhang Zhao. He wanted to leave a way out for Zhang Zhao. He wanted to leave a way out for Zhang Zhao, but he didn't expect Zhang Zhao to rebel.
"If you say too much, you can use it. Let's go!" the man in black robe said to Zhou Yu.
"You are very wrong to use me to force your lord to submit!" Zhou Yu said disdainfully to everyone, and Zhou Yu took out a dagger from his arms.
Zuo Jie was shocked. If Zhou Yu died, they would not be able to get out of this Zhou mansion, and even everything would be over.
"I want to commit suicide? Hehe, if you die, then Sun Ce will be ruined!" The man in black robe said to Zhou Yu without any panic.
"What does it mean?" Zhou Yu asked coldly.
"You should know why the second young master did not kill the second young master like that. That is because Wu Hou had a brotherly affection for the second young master, and he was reluctant to take action against the second young master. Even Old Lady Wu put pressure on Wu Hou!" The man in black robe said to Zhou Yu that no one would like to kill each other. Old Lady Wu raised the two brothers with great difficulty, so how could he watch Sun Ce kill Sun Quan? So brotherly love and the pressure of his old mother, Sun Ce detained Sun Quan, and even did not treat Sun Quan with the same attitude as an ordinary prisoner when he was detained.
"If your Grand Chief is dead, hehe, it is dead at the hands of the second young master. The Grand Chief follows your feelings for Wu Hou and his feelings for you. Do you think Wu Hou will avenge you?" The man in black robe continued to speak.
To be continued...
