Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

Li Yi immediately took the letter from Dian Wei, took off the seal, took out a piece of cloth from it, and put it in his hand to examine it.

When Li Yi was reading the letter, Zhou Yu shook his head and sat up slowly, his slightly hazy eyes gradually became more clear, and then he waited for a while, and then he seemed to understand what Li Yi and Dian Wei were talking about. Then when he looked at Li Yi, there was more curiosity on his face, and because of being drunk, Zhou Yu's curiosity seemed very pure, just like a child, and it would not make people feel that he was in Li Yi's hands. What bad idea does the letter have.

There is not much content in the letter, so Li Yi finished reading it soon, and then saw Li Yi laughing, and said, "Sun Ce!"

Zhou Yu was startled in his heart, but on the surface he just blinked his eyes, a little more curious, and asked directly with the strength of wine, "Xianghou has another trick?"

Li Yi shook his head with a smile, and said, "It's not a clever plan, it's just some random arrangements earlier, but I didn't expect it to work now, haha."

Zhou Yu also showed a smile on his face when he heard the words. He seemed to be happy about Li Yi's affairs, but he was very disturbed in his heart. He didn't know where Li Yi had plotted against Sun Ce again.

At this time Zhou Yu really wanted to know the specific content of the letter, but Li Yi just said one sentence, and then kept quiet. Zhou Yu could ask a few more questions by being drunk, but he was worried that his performance would be too obvious, which would arouse Li Yi's anger. Suspect.

Just when Zhou Yu was hesitating how to inquire, Li Yi suddenly thought of something, turned to Zhou Yu and said, "Gong Jin is new here, and I don't know the rules in our army. Although I am not harsh on the soldiers, the rules are still there." Some, so, what is stated in this letter, except for me and the military adviser, and the chief generals of the various ministries, other people cannot know. Although I can trust Gongjin, the rules are not bad, so I hope Gongjin will not To blame."

"Oh, what is the word of the Marquis Xiang?"

Zhou Yu patted his head, and said with some embarrassment, "How can Yu be someone who doesn't know the importance, let alone such an important military matter? Of course, Yu is indeed very curious, but she is not drunk yet, but she will not ask Xianghou Inquired."

Li Yi laughed and said, "You must ask me to get you drunk. Well, I'll see how Gongjin drinks today."

Forget it, Li Yi turned around and put the letter in a wooden box in the corner of the carriage, and then continued to exchange glasses with Zhou Yu. Li Yi drank happily, and Zhou Yu could only risk his life to accompany the gentleman. But his eyes looked at the wooden box from time to time, hesitating whether to wait for Li Yi to get drunk, open the wooden box to take a look, but Li Yi's alcohol intake really exceeded Zhou Yu's estimate, even if Zhou Yu secretly He tried some tricks, but in the end Li Yiguan was so dizzy and dizzy that he couldn't sit still, so he just lay down on the side and snored.

Seeing Zhou Yu's appearance like this, Li Yi ordered someone to send Zhou Yu down to rest, and as soon as Zhou Yu left, Li Yi's not much drunkenness dissipated immediately, his eyes were bright and his expression was calm, if it wasn't for the smell of alcohol on his body that hadn't dissipated No one would have guessed that he just drank more than three catties.

When Li Yi became "awake", Wei Yan and Dian Wei, who had been guarding not far from the carriage, immediately came over. Knowing what they were thinking, Li Yi beckoned and said, "Don't be so outspoken, come up and talk."

"Here!"

The two jumped into the carriage in response, looked at each other, and neither of them spoke first, but the curiosity that was almost overflowing in the eyes of the two basically poured out their thoughts.

Li Yi poured them two glasses of wine and asked, "You all want to know why I treated Zhou Yu so politely?"

The two nodded like chickens pecking at rice. Li Yi smiled, looked at Wei Yan deliberately, and asked, "Are you still a little unconvinced?"

Wei Yan wanted to nod subconsciously, but as soon as he moved, he immediately shook his head like a rattle, and hurriedly said, "I don't dare, I just don't understand, I don't dare to question my lord's decision."

With so many generals under Li Yi, Wei Yan was the one who was beaten the most, so that this guy had zero shadows, for fear that Li Yi would find another opportunity to educate him, and more importantly, he was really dissatisfied with Zhou Yu.

A white face, isn't it because he looks better and has a good family background? Just here, he didn't have any credit at all, so why can he eat with Li Yitong?

Even, Wei Yan once complained, did Li Yi fall in love with him? After all, Zhou Yu was indeed beautiful, and it is not uncommon for Long Yang to be good.

Of course, he only dared to think about this in his heart, and he absolutely didn't dare to say it, for fear that Li Yi would beat him to death.

Li Yi waved his hand and said comfortingly, "Don't panic, Zhou Yu is just here, it's only natural that you are dissatisfied in your heart, it's not a fault."

Wei Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked inwardly, "Then why is the lord so polite to him?"

"Ugh!"

Li Yi sighed, and looked out through the car window, and in the distance was Zhou Yu's resting carriage.

After watching for a while, Li Yi said to them, "Because he belongs to Sun Ce."

"what!"

Both of them were shocked, especially Wei Yan. He was still a little confused yesterday. Even if he wanted to recruit the people brought by Zhou Yu, he could arrange it slowly. Why should he be in such a hurry and have to let him finish the job overnight? Listen now. Li Yi's explanation was understood at once.

After a short period of surprise, the doubts on the faces of the two became even worse. Since Li Yi knew that this person belonged to Sun Ce, why should he be polite?

Li Yi looked at their expressions, and said with some regret, "Although many people were recruited for this trip to Yangzhou, few of them were great talents, and the ones I valued the most were all under Sun Ce's subordinates." , even if not, they have connections with the Sun family, such as Zhu Zhi, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, almost all of these people cannot be used by me, which is really a pity."

"Fortunately, there is another Zhou Yu!"

"Zhou Yu and Sun Ce have a deep personal relationship. Although this trip is called defection, it is actually trying to trick me to Lujiang to help Sun Ce succeed."

"If someone else does something like this, it's just a matter of cutting it off. I'm too lazy to worry about it, but Zhou Yu's talent is rare in the world. Mo Chengpu Han Dang and others are far inferior to him. After several years of experience, it is with two military advisers. Comparing, maybe also between brothers, such a great talent, how can I be willing to miss it?"

Dian Wei and Wei Yan all showed surprise on their faces. Before Li Yi opened his mouth, they guessed that Li Yi would definitely think highly of Zhou Yu, but they still didn't expect that Li Yi would put Zhou Yu and Guo Jia on the same side. That's all. Incredible.

Although Wei Yan's character is a bit jumpy, but the big things are still clear. Since Li Yi made his words so obvious, he directly threw aside the jealousy and dissatisfaction in his heart, and asked after thinking about it, "But since Zhou Yu has a heart Xiang Sun Ce, I'm afraid it won't be easy to subdue him."

Li Yi nodded and said, "This matter is really difficult, but it is considered lucky. Although Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are on good terms now, they are not considered subordinates. There is still a chance. Moreover, Zhou Yu is not Zhu Zhi, even if he is It’s worth the extra effort.”

After a pause, Li Yi said again, "I have tried my best to treat Zhou Yu with courtesy, but at the same time, I have to let him know how good I am, which also requires your cooperation. I will explain the details to you later, but before that , you two need to be careful in the near future, beware of Zhou Yu causing chaos in the army, or even escaping, if that really happens, don't let him come to see me again."

Zhou Yu and Li Yi drank too much, and when he woke up, he was already lying in the tent.

Zhou Yu rubbed his forehead, got up and walked out of the tent, but it was dark outside. Fortunately, there were many soldiers chatting around the campfire in the distance, otherwise he would have thought it was midnight.

A servant guarding the tent saw Zhou Yu coming out, he quickly brought a wooden basin, and said, "My lord is awake, there is clear water here."

Zhou Yu nodded, took a towel and wiped his face, and asked, "When I was drunk, what happened in the camp?"

This servant was brought by Zhou Yu himself. Several generations have worked for the Zhou family. Although he has no status, he is a rare person who knows the purpose of Zhou Yu's trip.

The fellow replied, "After the young master fell asleep, there was no abnormality in the camp. The people found an excuse to go outside and saw the people who were scattered yesterday. No one questioned and tested them. It should be a normal arrangement. "

Zhou Yu nodded, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, not because he was afraid of what Li Yi would ask from those people, but because he was worried that Li Yi would doubt him.

After a brief scrubbing, the man brought Zhou Yu another bowl of water. Zhou Yu took a sip, pursed his lips, and asked strangely, "Where did you get the honey water?"

The servant replied, "After camping, the Marquis of Xiang sent people to look for wild bees in the nearby forest. At that time, people thought that Marquis Xiang wanted to eat honey, but later Marquis Xiang sent the honey to the young master. It was honey water to relieve alcohol. Just let the son drink."

Most people like honey water, and Zhou Yu is no exception. Originally, when he tasted honey, Zhou Yu planned to be bored, but Li Yi specially prepared it for him. Somehow, when Zhou Yu tasted the taste in his mouth again , but felt that the honey water was a bit bitter.

Zhou Yu didn't hide his emotions too much in front of the servant, so when the servant saw Zhou Yu's face changing, he suddenly thought of something, and exclaimed in a low voice, "Could it be that the honey water is poisonous?"

Although Zhou Yu's heart was a little heavy, he was still annoyed by him when he heard the mean words, and was about to reprimand him, but after thinking about it again, he found that he was right. Isn't the honey water Li Yi gave him poisonous?

For a moment, Zhou Yu really wanted to pour out the honey water in the bowl, but he moved his wrist lightly, and in the end he just sighed lightly, then held up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp. The taste was both sweet and bitter. , it is difficult to distinguish.

Handing the bowl to the bewildered servant, Zhou Yu took a cloak and started strolling in this temporary camp as if strolling in the courtyard. When passing by Li Yi's carriage, he noticed that even at night, There were also two of Li Yi's personal guards guarding the carriage, not sure if they were protecting the contents of the carriage or guarding against the carriage being destroyed.

Zhou Yu didn't stay long. Although he was very concerned about the contents of the letter, he didn't want to steal the letter right away. Zhou Yu just wanted to go back and forth and see with his own eyes how the famous Marquis Li Xiang was governing the army.

So, after Zhou Yu walked for a while, he really found something unusual.

The first thing Zhou Yu noticed was the "Military Yuan Coupon". After asking a corporal leader to ask why, Zhou Yu sighed very much. The soldiers of Yangzhou worked hard for him, and treachery was never too much.

However, Zhou Yu cared more about the paper than the military coupons.

Now paper is sold on the market, but the price is a bit expensive. Although it is cheaper than bamboo slips, it is still not affordable for ordinary people.

However, after seeing the military yuan coupons, Zhou Yu found that the paper quality of this military yuan coupons was much better than the ones he had seen.

Ordinary people usually don't think too much when they find this, but Zhou Yu is different. In contrast, he immediately had a guess. The cost of the paper that appears on the market now should be extremely low. As for the high price, it should be Li Yi. It was raised on purpose.
