Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 995
In the residence of Zhou Yu in Wu County.

Because Zhou Yu was in a dilemma of loyalty that day, he did not join Yuan Tan.

Instead, he and Xiao Qiao lived an ordinary life.

However, Yuan Tan never gave up on recruiting Zhou Yu, so he wrote to Zhou Yu frequently, hoping that he would change his mind.

Even though Yuan Tan offered better treatment every time, Zhou Yu was not moved by it.

Until today, when she received another letter from Yuan Tan, Zhou Yu's expression also changed slightly.

Seeing this, Xiao Qiao asked with concern: "What's wrong, husband? Has King Qi recruited you to work under him again?"

Zhou Yu also shook his head and said: "Madam, you should not know, but this letter is not about this matter."

"What is it that can make your husband so difficult?"

Zhou Yu also heaved a long sigh and said, "Oh, what the letter said is that the descendants of the Sun family appeared in Yizhou, and it is said that they rebelled."

After hearing this, Xiao Qiao was also surprised and said: "What? Has the Sun family risen again? What does the king of Qi mean? Is it because he is worried that the husband will turn against them and be disadvantaged by the king of Qi?"

"That's not enough."

"Then what happened, I really don't understand."

Zhou Yu also explained immediately: "King Qi's intention is to entrust me with the full power to deal with the suspected Sun family's rebel army, whether it is peace or war."

After hearing this, Xiao Qiao said, "Isn't this embarrassing your husband?"

Zhou Yu said with a smile: "This is embarrassing me. King Qi just wanted me to establish a reputation in Yangzhou County. It seems that his desire to recruit me has not diminished in the slightest."

"My husband has seen King Qi's original intention, so why don't you accept this order?" Xiao Qiao said.

"But it involves the Sun family at this time, that's all. If I don't accept the conspiracy of King Qi, it will not work." Zhou Yu smiled wryly.

Then he asked Xiao Qiao to prepare clothes for him, and then went to the county magistrate to discuss it.

Xiao Qiao saw that Zhou Yu had already made a decision, so she didn't say any more.

After a while, after getting dressed, Zhou Yu bid farewell to Xiao Qiao, and also left the house.

The current governor of Wu County is Gan Ning.

However, although Gan Ning, a martial idiot, has the reputation of being a sheriff, he never does what the sheriff should do.

He also stays in the military camp on weekdays.

As for the internal affairs of counties and counties, Zhang Zhao and others were to handle them.

Zhang Zhao didn't have this plan at first, but he saw that Gan Ning had no talent for internal affairs.

It was a last resort to take up these chores.

The purpose is also to prevent unnecessary turmoil in Wu County.

It was Zhang Zhao who Zhou Yu came to find this time.

Zhang Zhao was also surprised when he first met Zhou Yu.

He really did not expect that one day he would see Zhou Yu in this county guard's mansion.

Then he also greeted: "Is Gongjin okay these days?"

Zhou Yu also returned the courtesy and said: "It's okay, Lao Zibu is concerned."

Immediately Zhang Zhao asked Zhou Yu to sit down and poured tea for him, "What's the matter with Gong Jin coming here today?"

Seeing that Zhang Zhao didn't know his reason, Zhou Yu immediately asked, "Didn't King Qi tell you?"

Zhang Zhao immediately said with a smile: "Gong Jin was joking, what is your status now? Why did the King of Qi send me a letter? I think the news should have reached General Gan. What is going on with Gong Jin? Let's talk about it." Listen."

It was only then that Zhou Yu realized that Zhang Zhao was only handling the affairs of the county on Gan Ning's behalf, but did not take over the real power of the county guard.

Then he told Zhang Zhao about the Yizhou incident mentioned in Yuan Tan's letter.

After Zhang Zhao heard it, he was shocked, and then said, "How could this be?"

Seeing that Zhang Zhao seemed suspicious, Zhou Yu asked, "Zibu, is there something tricky about this?"

Zhang Zhao then thought to Zhou Yu and said, "The king of Qi told me that day, the descendants of the Sun family had changed their names and surnames, and lived a life without worrying about food and clothing. If so, how could there be any descendants of the Sun family suddenly What about raising the banner of rebellion?"

At this time, Zhou Yu also smelled the abnormality, and asked: "According to what Zibu said, is it possible that the rebels are not the descendants of the Sun family?"

Zhang Zhao nodded and said, "It's probably true. Since the King of Qi made his descendants have no worries about food and clothing, why didn't he send someone to monitor him? Even so, how could the descendants of the Sun family have the opportunity to escape and rebel? It must be so. Someone is just using this reputation."

After hearing this, Zhou Yu felt a little angry at the person who rebelled under the pretext. After all, the world has just been peaceful, but now that he is doing this, isn't he putting the blame for disrupting social order on the forgotten Sun Wu.

Even Zhou Yu, who has been cultivating his body and mind for a long time, is showing a little killing intent at this moment.

Then he said to Zhang Zhao: "If this is true as Zibu said, then this rebel must die for the truth."

Zhang Zhao then said, "Then how does Gongjin plan to deal with this matter?"

Zhou Yu then said: "I want to borrow some soldiers from you, just to find out who this person is. If this person is really a descendant of the Sun family, I will patiently persuade him to give up resistance. If this person is not, then I will Let him know what kind of price he has to bear for pretending to be the Sun family."

Zhang Zhao also understood Zhou Yu's feelings for Sun, so he knew that he would not give up on this matter easily.

But for Zhou Yu's proposal, he couldn't satisfy himself.

Because I was just helping Gan Ning handle internal affairs.

The actual power of Wu Jun is still in the hands of Gan Ning.

Zhang Zhao said helplessly, "Gongjin, it's not that I won't help you, it's because I have no right to lend you the soldiers and horses!"

Seeing Zhang Zhao's appearance, Zhou Yu also saw the clues.

I have already discovered the problem since I came in here.

At this moment he also smiled and said: "I know, if you want to borrow troops, you need to ask General Gan to nod for this matter, does Zibu know where General Gan is?"

"General Zhou, are you looking for me?" A strong man walked in from the door of the speaking room.

Who is it if it is not Gan Ning?

After Gan Ning came in, he smiled at Zhou Yu and said, "General Zhou, you can do whatever you want. I have also received the letter from the King of Qi. Now Wu County's affairs, including military power, are all in the hands of the generals. You rule, including me."

Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao were also taken aback when they heard this. Who would have thought that Yuan Tan would be so relieved of Zhou Yu. This move can be said to have given the entire Wu County to Zhou Yu!

Once Zhou Yu really wants to rely on the so-called descendants of the Sun family, then the entire Wu County will be completely supported by the enemy.

Therefore, the two felt that Yuan Tan's move was too bold.

Zhou Yu also appreciated Yuan Tan's kindness, and said, "General Gan doesn't have to be like this, after all, I..."

Gan Ning smiled and said: "General Zhou, you don't need to evade. I know what you are worried about. But the king of Qi used to say that he always doubts people and does not use people. So Zhou General, don't disappoint King Qi's kindness."

Seeing that Gan Ning was so persistent, Zhou Yu said helplessly, "Well, if King Qi really has this intention, then I, Zhou Gongjin, will not shirk any more, and I will definitely not let him down this time."
