, indeed. "

Xun Yu frowned, but said nothing.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu asked, "Is there a problem with this time?"

Xun Yu smiled wryly and said, "It's true, it's true. The prime minister told me that he will have a big banquet for the generals at Xushi tomorrow and ask them to wait."

Time hit?

How is this going?

"Did the Prime Minister say what you want me to do?"

Xun Yu shook his head, "No, he didn't say it. It seems that he didn't write it in the letter to you either?"

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Then are you ready to go?"

Zhou Yu lowered his eyes and sighed, "I haven't made a plan yet."

"That's right." Xun Yu smiled wryly, "You think this is a grand banquet, right?"

Zhou Yu said, "Isn't it?"

Xun Yu looked at him and said, "Yes."

Zhou Yu was surprised that Xun Yu answered "yes" so neatly.

That is to say, Cao Cao will do something at the banquet?

"But who can say for sure?" Xun Yu took a sip of hot tea and said, "I don't know who is feasting whom."

A word to wake up the dreamer!

How clever Zhou Yu was, he immediately understood what Xun Yu meant!

But then he frowned again and asked, "Xun Ling...why?"

Why are you here?

Why are you telling me this?

Is it a scam, or is it real?

"It's inevitable that you have such doubts." Xun Yu smiled faintly, "Of course I have a few questions to ask Gong Jin when I come here."

Xun Yu gave Zhou Yu some advice first, and Zhou Yu naturally couldn't refuse.

But what if this is a play by Cao Cao and Xun Yu?

Zhou Yu lowered his eyes and replied, "Xun Ling, please tell me."

Xun Yu's eyes darkened, and he asked, "Gong Jin, do you still remember the silk script?"

silk book!

He knows about it!

Zhou Yu immediately raised his guard and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I know you remember it." Xun Yu didn't seem to care that Zhou Yu didn't answer his question directly, and said, "I don't mean any harm. I just want to ask, the silk book in Gongjin's hand, the first Which two words?"

Which two words?

After thinking for a while, Zhou Yu chose to answer truthfully.

For some reason, he felt that Xun Yu could be trusted.

Although Xun Yu was very likely to join forces with Cao Cao, he still chose to believe in Xun Yu.

He had already felt, in Xun Yu's seemingly unintentional tone, the... hatred for Cao Cao.

Bet once.

He opened and closed his lips, lowered his voice, and said, "'Bing Dao'."

The way of soldiers is the way of marching and using soldiers.

Xun Yu looked into Zhou Yu's eyes for a while, as if confirming.After a while, he suddenly smiled, "Since Gong Jin is so honest, then I will reciprocate and tell you something."

Zhou Yu said, "Yu listens attentively."

"I think you have figured it out. This silk book belongs to the Sun family." He said softly while drinking tea, "Sun Jian and Sun Wentai divided this silk book into three, one for Sun Bofu and one for Sun Bofu. I gave it to a close friend, and a copy was hidden somewhere in Jingzhou, and I wanted to leave it to his descendants in the future.

"Unexpectedly, something happened, and now they are scattered and cannot be collected."

Zhou Yu looked at him and asked, "Xun Ling, do you have a share?"

Xun Yu looked at him and shook his head.

"No."

Zhou Yu's gaze sank.

"You may not believe it, but I don't have any in my hands, or the entire prime minister's camp."

Is that so...

"Back when Feng Xiao was in danger, he came to Nanyang for the silk book written by Sun Wentai's close friend in Nanyang... Unfortunately, he failed." When Xun Yu mentioned Guo Jia, his expression seemed a little painful.

"Where is the silk book now?"

Xun Yu was startled, "You don't know?"

Zhou Yu felt something was wrong, "I don't know."

Xun Yu frowned, and said helplessly, "I think so too...otherwise, how could you join forces with Liu Xuande so neatly?" After speaking, he looked at Zhou Yu and said, "In Nanyang back then, it was Xu Shu who stole the share in the end. silk book."

Xu Shu? !

"After Xu Shu stole the silk book, he gave it to his lord, Liu Bei."

Zhou Yu couldn't help but gasp.

Liu Bei, sure enough...hidden!

"The silk script in Liu Xuande's hand is 'Governmental Way', which talks about how to govern the country and secure the country. I'm afraid his purpose is not pure when he joins forces with you this time...you have to be careful."

Zhou Yu looked at him and said, "Yu understands."

"Your is the 'Bing Dao', Liu Xuande's is the 'Government Dao', there is still one left, where in Jingzhou... I don't know. A few months ago, the prime minister sent troops south to occupy Jingzhou... To grab this silk book, It's one of the reasons."

Zhou Yu was startled. Is this silk book really so important? !

He can control the situation of the world!

Xun Yu looked at him, then stood up.

"What I said today is from the bottom of my heart." Xun Yu said, "I don't know how much you can believe, but I ask Gong Jin to think carefully."

Zhou Yu nodded.

Xun Yu looked at him, smiled faintly, and then turned around.

This is the meaning of leaving, Zhou Yu immediately got up to see him off.

After taking a few steps, Xun Yu suddenly asked, "Gong Jin."

"Ok?"

"... General Sun Bofu, what kind of person is he?"

Zhou Yu was taken aback.He never thought that Xun Yu would ask such a question.

Bofu...

Domineering, arrogant, frivolous... These words swayed in his head over and over again.

But he finally said softly: "Bo Fu...he is my monarch, and even my good brother."

Xun Yu carried him on his back, his thin body covered with a thick robe.Light as a lotus.

After a while, Xun Yu asked softly, "Is he gentle?"

"Ah."

"Does he smile a lot?"

"Ah."

"Does he believe you no matter what happens?"

"Um. Whatever."

"That's it," Xun Yu raised his head, sighed and smiled, "...that's great."

Zhou Yu couldn't see Xun Yu's expression, but he could hear his sad voice.

"Gongjin's life is really good... If only Feng Xiao had such a good life." Xun Yu muttered, whispering to himself, "Everything will be different...it's all my fault."

"Xun Ling..."

Before Zhou Yu finished speaking, Xun Yu asked again, "Gong Jin, do you still remember Fengxiao?"

"...It's only natural." Zhou Yu said, "Brother Feng Xiao is extremely intelligent, how can he forget?"

Xun Yu glanced at him and said, "Do you know how he died?"

Zhou Yu was puzzled and said: "It is said that... the climate is not acclimatized, and he died of illness..."

"...died of illness?" Xun Yu smiled, his eyes looked like a withered lotus, "'He' is still so good at finding reasons."

"he"? "who is he?

Is it Cao Cao?

"I hate him."

Xun Yu never expressed his feelings so bluntly, but these three words really made Zhou Yu feel the deep hatred.

"So..." Xun Yu suddenly turned his head, looking at Zhou Yu with moist and clear eyes, "I don't want him to win."

——This has completely exceeded Zhou Yu's expectations.

"I'm about to die." Xun Yu's eyes were sad, but he forced a smile and said, "I'm too sick, and the cold air from snow lotus seeds has already damaged my internal organs... Actually, I should have died a long time ago."

"Xun Ling—"

"Gongjin, this may be the last time you and I meet." Xun Yu's thin figure seemed to collapse in the next moment, "I know what I say, but you may not believe it...you think I'm cheating on you. Regardless of Liu Union, I have to say this. If I don’t say it, I will definitely regret it.” He said sadly: “I have regretted it too many times...so this time, I will take a gamble.”

Zhou Yu looked at Xun Yu and said, "I believe in the bet."

Xun Yu met his eyes, "Besides, you can win the bet."

Zhou Yu gritted his teeth and looked back at him.

"I will definitely win."

Xun Yu finally smiled in relief.

"Within half a month, there will be a big battle at Chibi." Xun Yu collected his emotions, turned around, and said, "I heard that the Prime Minister has already figured out a way to deal with the northerners who are unsuitable for water warfare. Please Gongjin make plans early."

"Thank you Xun Ling."

"Thank you for your clothes." Xun Yu handed the thick robe to Zhou Yu who was seeing him off, and said, "It's really warm."

Zhou Yu pushed his hand back and said, "Xun Ling, take it."

Xun Yu understood what he meant, but just smiled lightly, "It's not good for people to see."

"Just say it was a gift from a friend." Zhou Yu forced the clothes on for him, saying, "Take care of yourself."

Xun Yu looked at him and said with a smile, "Yes."

Xun Yu is like a lotus flower.

Zhou Yu didn't know why he thought so, but seeing Xun Yu standing there, he felt very similar.

It's the same when you're laughing and when you're sad.

Zhou Yu didn't know what Xun Yu had suffered, nor how Guo Jia died.In this era, there are too many such things.He and Sun Ce are not one of them?

He sent Xun Yu to the bank of the river, where there was already a waiting boat.

The river wind blows Xun Yu's black silk and Zhou Yu's sleeves, and the little lights of fire reflect the stars in the sky.

They shook each other's hands, and Zhou Yu watched him step onto the boat.

Farewell today...

Never see you again.

39.

At this moment, Xun Yu swayed.

Zhou Yu was startled, and before he could yell "Xun Ling", he saw Xun Yu's body fall down!

The boat was not far away, Zhou Yu yelled "Come back!", but he rushed over in a hurry through the water that was not yet deep.

Xun Yu's complexion was like paper, and he had already passed out.

"What's going on here!" Zhou Yu looked at the other person on the boat, and the boatman turned pale with shock, "I, I don't know, I was just called by him to row the boat temporarily!"

Zhou Yu cursed secretly, just as he was about to pick him up, Lu Su also walked over in the water, and put his right hand on Zhou Yu's arm that was about to pick him up.

"Captain," Lu Su said, "Think twice."

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Yu's heart moved.

"What is this person's identity? He fell ill in our camp and then rested. What's going on?" Lu Su lowered his voice. "Once he was discovered, why was he on our side? Why did he get sick? Why didn't we Deliver him to the opposite side in time?"

Lu Su looked at Zhou Yu, and continued to say word by word: "I don't know what he said to the governor just now, but the governor, once, is this a scam?"

——It was arranged for him to come to you, it was arranged for him to fall ill and faint, and it was also arranged for him to stay in our camp.

"Then Cao thief can seize this point and attack us. Say we caught him and abused him, so I say..." Lu Su paused, his face ugly, "We're not The charge of the minister's crime is confirmed.

"He Cao thief is famous for his mentor, and we have become rebels and traitors!"

Zhou Yu's heart skipped a beat when he heard Lu Su's words.

Why hasn't he thought of what Lu Su said?Why doesn't he know what the consequences will be if this thing is done?

but--

"I don't know how much you can believe, but I ask Gongjin to think carefully."

"... General Sun Bofu, what kind of person is he?"

"Gongjin's life is really good... If only Feng Xiao had such a good life, it would be great."

"I don't want him to win."

"I've regretted it too many times... so this time, I'm going to take a gamble."

……

Is it real or fake?

Is it a scam?

Zhou Yu slowly closed his eyes.

He understood Xun Yu's thoughts too well.I'm afraid his illness didn't last a day or two, and he had already suffered from it just now, but he persisted.It wasn't until he got on the boat that he breathed a sigh of relief when the suppressed pain surged up his whole body.

Zhou Yu understands because Zhou Yu has also done such a thing.

In such an era of war and chaos, there is always some sympathy among fellow heroes.

Should you trust him?

The sky was full of stars, and the wind from the river shook Zhou Yu's clothes.

After a while he said, "He believed me once, and I believed him once."

Lu Su said in shock: "The governor——!"

"I understand what you said, Zijing." Zhou Yu looked at Xun Yu's pale face and said, "It does seem risky, but there is no single-edged sword in this world."

Lu Su was taken aback.

"Even if this is a fraud, it may not be as satisfactory as Cao Cao thought." Zhou Yu hugged Xun Yu and said, "If Cao Cao uses him to deceive me, I will definitely make him pay the price."

As soon as the words fell, he carried Xun Yu to his tent.

Clean and neat, without muddy water.

Lu Su watched Zhou Yu's leaving figure, gritted his teeth, and followed.

It's Yin time.But it was autumn, and the sky was dark.

Zhou Yu put him in his tent, sent Lu Meng to guard him, assigned him to Lu Su, and then raised his worries in his tent.

He was obviously ill, but due to his status, he couldn't call a military doctor.

what to do?If you can't save him and come back, just let him go here and forget about it?

Just then, a person poked his head in.

"Gongjin, Gongjin," Zhuge Liang showed only his head, looked at Zhou Yu, blinked his eyes and smiled, "...Do you want me to go in?"

Zhou Yu's eyelids twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Ziming, kick him out!"

Lu Meng, who was guarding outside the tent, heard the words: "Look, I will say no." Then he really wanted to kick Zhuge Liang away.

"Don't," Zhuge Liang said hastily, "Gongjin, I know medicine!"

Hearing the last four words, Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows.

"Is this true?"

"Absolutely."

"If you don't, I'll kill you." Zhou Yu said solemnly, "Ziming... kick him back for me."

[Here, a brain-dead joke is suddenly inserted~! ]

After getting permission, Zhuge Liang patted on his clothes as soon as he entered the tent, and said to Lu Meng outside the tent solemnly, "Look, I say yes."

Lu Meng glanced at him, and then said: "You should go in quickly."

Zhuge Liang shook his fan and said leisurely, "It's... cold outside, right?"

Lu Meng glanced at him again, with a strange expression on his face, and said, "Your head must have been frozen."

Zhuge Liang was silent for a while, and then said to Lu Meng, "You have failed to learn from that sharp-tongued Lu Zijing."

[The brainless joke is over ==]

Zhuge Liang went to Xun Yu's couch and felt his pulse.

Zhou Yu looked at him, and before he could ask how he was doing, he saw his face gradually pale.

"……What's wrong?"

Zhuge Liang put down Xun Yu's wrist, and said in a deep voice, "...the cold has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and has already damaged the internal organs."

Zhou Yu was startled.

Although he had heard it once from Xun Yu, but now it was another feeling when he said it from Zhuge Liang.

"That--"

"Gong Jin," Zhuge Liang said solemnly, "It's hopeless."

Zhou Yu was shocked and dumbfounded.

"He can live until now because of Cao Cao's good medicine and his life." Zhuge Liang looked at his tongue, then touched his neck, "he should have been poisoned by a strong poison in his early years, although He didn’t die but the poison burned his meridians, so he was seriously injured once. Later, in order to suppress the poison, he took snow lotus seeds again.” Zhuge Liang pointed to Xun Yu’s face, and said: “Snow lotus seeds stay beautiful, that’s why The reason why he is not old at the age of no doubt."

Zhou Yu looked at Xun Yu who was unconscious, and said, "But the coldness of the snow lotus seed also hurt his body, didn't it?"

Zhuge Liang was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Really, the end of life is not long...?

Is that why you're going to gamble one last time?

Zhou Yu looked at Xun Yu and felt a pain in his heart.

Xun Yu, who is as gentle as jade, can't escape such a fate?Is human life really worthless?

But when the two were silent at the same time, Zhou Yu silently retracted his wrist into his sleeve.

forty.

Zhuge Liang gave Xun Yu a prescription, and when he turned around, he asked someone to fry it.

He and Zhuge Liang walked out of the camp.

The shadows of the whirling trees concealed the killing on the battlefield, the river wind was blowing the stars all over the sky, and the smell of the end of autumn and the beginning of winter became stronger, bringing with it an irresistible chill.

"Xun ordered him...how long?"

Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Yu, but smiled and said, "You care about him so much?"

"...Even if you are not in the same camp," Zhou Yu stood by the river, looking at the endless river, and said, "Seeing him like this, I still can't let him go."

Jiang Feng came head-on, and the broken hair on Zhou Yu's forehead swayed slightly.

Zhuge Liang thought about it for a while, and then said, "Seven months. It will also be under the condition that Cao Cao continues to supply him with the best medicinal materials."

"Okay, a lot more than I thought."

"Don't you think it's a pity?" Zhuge Liang shook his fan, "He is the chief strategist of the hostile camp, you can definitely kill him here." He looked at Zhou Yu who was looking at the river, and said: "Anyway, we have already met with Cao Cao." This situation is over, why not use the trick?"

Zhou Yu knew he was joking, but he also knew he was only half joking.He looked at the stars reflected on the river, and said indifferently: "So what if it's done?"

His eyes flickered for a moment.Like a star that blooms.

"Just because I care about him does not mean that I have forgotten my identity, my mission, and my belief." Zhou Yu said in a single word: "I am from Jiangdong. As long as I have breath, I will do the most correct thing." decision."

His tone was so firm that Zhuge Liang couldn't help but look at him.

"If you talk to him, you will know." Zhou Yu sighed: "His person is still alive, but his heart is dead."

--th.

"Even if we let him go back, he won't pose any threat." Zhou Yu kept his eyes on the river from the beginning to the end, and said, "I have such confidence."

Zhou Yu like this is really irresistible.

If he is in front of the king now, he is a general in charge of his own affairs.In front of the soldiers, he is the leader of the guard.

In front of his friends, he is a trustworthy comrade in arms.

But at this moment, in Zhuge Liang's eyes, he was worth everything.

It's like this is not a battlefield, not Chibi, and Cao Cao's army is not overwhelming, there are only two of them in the world.

But Zhuge Liang also knew that this was impossible.

Like this starlight.

Beautiful, yet out of reach.

sough--

Zhou Yu didn't know how long he stood by the river, the river wind blew on his face, then along his neck and penetrated his whole body, giving him a cool feeling.

"It's so cold outside, let's go back."

A piece of clothing was draped over Zhou Yu's shoulders. Zhou Yu turned his head slightly and saw that it was an outer shirt.

"I took an extra one when I came out." Seeing Zhou Yu's expression changed, Zhuge Liang said, "I didn't wear it."

Zhou Yu didn't make a sound.

Zhuge Liang smiled wryly and said, "Why, do you despise me?"

"No." Zhou Yu shook his head and said sadly, "I just remembered some past events."

Sun Ce also helped him put on clothes many times.

It looks so carefree, but it is so gentle and considerate in details.

Every time, he took off the clothes he was wearing and pressed them on his body with extreme force.

Once I asked him, since I have decided to go out at night, why don't I bring an extra layer of clothing?

Sun Ce raised his eyebrows and said: How can that be done!You must wear the one I just wore!

Zhou Yu jumped up and said: Why are you so bad!

Luckily, Sun Ce insisted on adding, you are wearing my clothes, but I am not, so that others can know that you are mine!

Zhou Yu kicked him.

Sun Ce continued to poke his neck and said: You wear thick clothes, I wear very little, so that others can know that I am your "man"!

... Zhou Yu was speechless at the time.

After so many years, there is no one who will put on clothes for him like Sun Ce.

This is also inevitable.Sun Ce himself is irreplaceable.

"I said why did you come to Chibi?" Zhou Yu turned around and walked side by side with Zhuge Liang in the direction of the tent, "How is the rear?"

"There is a change in the astrology, and it looks like something is going to happen, so I came to the front." Zhuge Liang saw Zhou Yu's ecstasy just now, and he didn't break it, he just pointed to the sky.

"It's right to change, it should be changed." Zhou Yu looked up at the sky and smiled in a good mood.

"Can you tell when it changed?"

"It's not so magical." Zhuge Liang laughed, but he did look up carefully, "Soon."

Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows, "Tomorrow?"

Zhuge Liang nodded, "Very likely."

Tomorrow……

Zhou Yu lowered his eyes, and Zhuge Liang asked, "What happened?"

Now that Sun and Liu are allies after all, Zhou Yu told him about Cao Cao's letter to him.

"Cao Cao invited you to a party? Haha, that's true," Zhuge Liang smiled, "Where's Xun Yu? What is he doing here?"

Zhou Yu hesitated slightly.

Xun Yu came here in a private capacity, and the content of his conversation should not be known to others.

"can not tell you--."

Zhou Yu stretched out his long voice and looked at Zhuge Liang, with a look of joy and helplessness on his face.

"We are allies."

"so what?"

"You should have told me!"

"What he said has nothing to do with this war," Zhou Yu said, "I won't tell you."

Zhuge Liang slapped the fan vigorously a few times with a look of "I don't believe it".

At the door of the tent, Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang stopped.

"Are you going tomorrow? Have a party by the river?"

Zhou Yu was silent for a while, and said, "Go."

Zhuge Liang knew that as long as he said that, he had already made up his mind, so he said, "Be careful."

"I will." Zhou Yu said, wearing the clothes he wore, "I will not let my army be without a commander."

Zhuge Liang looked at his resolute expression and was speechless for a moment.

After a while Zhou Yu raised his head and said, "How many days will you stay here?"

"I ran out secretly." Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Yu and said, "...But it doesn't matter, I have already come out anyway. Do you need me to stay here for a few days?"

Zhou Yu thought for a moment and said, "Three days."

"Okay." Zhuge Liang said without thinking, "Then I will stay for three days."

At this moment, none of them knew that these three days would mean a change in history and a drastic change in the situation.

41.

The next day, you time.

There is still an hour before Zhou Yu's invitation to Cao Cao to "get together in a boat".

"It is absolutely necessary to be fully prepared." Before entering the tent, Zhou Yu looked at Lu Su, "When I am not around, we must pay attention to stabilizing the morale of the army."

"I know." Lu Su looked at Zhou Yu worriedly, and said, "Is there really no problem?"

"No."

"I still feel something is wrong."

"There must be something strange." Zhou Yu smiled reassuringly, then patted Lu Su's shoulder, and said, "Go back and prepare. I've made up my mind."

Lu Su gritted his teeth and turned around to set up the battle.

Zhou Yu opened the tent, and then went in to change into a suit of armor.

While cleaning up the floor rustlingly, I heard a faint voice coming.

"...Are you going?"

Zhou Yu was taken aback for a moment before he remembered that it was Xun Yu.He smiled and said, "Yes."

"Gongjin is thinner than I thought." Xun Yu smiled faintly, and said, "Wearing a battle robe gives off a very strong feeling."

"This way you can look chic in your usual clothes." Zhou Yu bouncing up and down, tied up her hair, looking handsome and neat.

"That's it..." Xun Yu closed his eyes and said with a smile, "If there is a chance, I really want to see it."

"There are always opportunities—" Zhou Yu picked up the knee pads and said while wearing them, "When you recover from illness, I can let you take a look for free."

Hearing this, Xun Yu opened his eyes and looked at Zhou Yu.

But he still smiled lightly and said, "Okay."

Zhou Yu seemed to be in a good mood. He came over and touched Xun Yu's forehead, and said, "Do you feel better?"

With Xun Yu's condition at this time, there is basically no distinction between whether he feels good or not.But Xun Yu still smiled and said, "I feel much better."

"That's good." Zhou Yu helped him tuck the quilt, "Take a good rest."

"……Um."

After a moment of silence, Xun Yu suddenly spoke.

"Gongjin, thank you."

Zhou Yu put on the last armor, then looked back at Xun Yu.

"……no need thank me?"

Xun Yu half-closed his eyes, smiled, and said, "Well... a lot. Thank you for letting me stay. I will cause you a lot of trouble, right?"

"If you know you've caused me trouble, get well soon."

"I know." Xun Yu shrank back under the quilt, and then exhaled.

"Gong Jin," Xun Yu's voice was muffled under the blanket, "revenge him."

Zhou Yu was taken aback.

At that moment, Zhou Yu didn't realize who the "he" Xun Yu was talking about was.But the next moment, that lonely and sharp figure suddenly panicked in front of his eyes.

——Guo Jia.

【"If I were you, I would die."

……

"Just because you are worthy of calling our prime minister by his first name!"

……

"Do you know how Feng Xiao died?"

……

"...He is still so good at finding reasons."

...]

To avenge him?really--

According to Zhou Yu's usual habits, Zhou Yu would not ask about other people's injuries.

But at this moment, Zhou Yu opened his mouth.

"What's going on." Zhou Yu looked at him, "Guo Fengxiao's death."

As soon as the words fell, Xun Yu, who was nestled under the quilt, visibly trembled.

"Wen Ruo," Zhou Yu softened his tone, and went to Xun Yu's couch, "tell me."

Before that, only four people in this world knew about Guo Jia's death.

Cao Cao, Xun Yu, Xu Shu, and Guo Jia himself.

After Guo Jia died and Xu Shu had his tongue pulled out, there were actually only two people left.

Cao Cao, who is becoming more and more irritable and ambitious, and Xun Yu, who is as cold as death.

The two of them were silent about this matter, never mentioning it.

This is also inevitable.In Cao Cao's view, it was Xu Shu who killed Guo Jia. He tortured Xu Shu, thinking that this was revenge for him.

Until now, he has not fully realized his responsibility for Guo Jia's death.In other words, he has already realized it subconsciously, but he refuses to admit this established fact and keeps pushing things away to other factors.

And Xun Yu, who had witnessed the whole truth, became more and more desperate and cold when he saw Cao Cao like this.

This is the first time he has told this to anyone other than them.Zhou Yu, who seems to have nothing to do with this matter, is now Xun Yu's only hope.

Xun Yu half-huddled under the quilt, whispering.

He told Zhou Yu completely about the cause and effect of the whole incident.Of course, the bed relationship between Cao Cao, Guo Jia and himself is omitted.

Zhou Yu's face became paler as he listened.

When he heard that Guo Jia was forced to die in the tent at the end, his face was completely drained of blood.

"We've been good friends since we were in Yingchuan." Xun Yu's voice trembled a little, looked at Zhou Yu, and said, "Just like you and General Sun Bofu."

Hearing Sun Ce's name, Zhou Yu trembled.

Good friends like myself and Sun Ce...

Faced with the death of such a friend, Zhou Yu is very clear about the heart-piercing pain.

"I can't forgive him." Xun Yu said word by word, "I can't forgive him.

"In the past, even if some unpleasant things happened or there was friction, I would try my best to convince myself, and then I took it lightly, and it didn't matter.

"But I finally found out that it was my blind retreat that brought Feng Xiao to this end..."

"Wen Ruo," Zhou Yu carefully noticed Xun Yu's emotional instability, "it's not your fault."

"...It's completely pointless to dwell on this issue now." Xun Yu's eyes seemed to have been hollowed out, "Feng Xiao is dead."

Zhou Yu looked at him, and suddenly said firmly: "I will avenge him."

Xun Yu raised his head.

"—Because of Cao Cao, he also owes me his life."

He will never forget that it was Cao Cao who ordered Xu Gong's disciples to assassinate Sun Ce.

But Zhou Yu's words were so endless that Xun Yu might not understand them logically.After all, too many people died at the hands of Cao Cao.

But at this moment, Xun Yu suddenly looked at him in surprise.

"……you know?"

Zhou Yu frowned, "What?"

"You already know?" Xun Yu's expression was full of disbelief, "How did you know?"

Zhou Yu immediately realized that Xun Yu probably knew something about Sun Ce's death.

"you--"

"This is fate." Xun Yu, who understood that Zhou Yu already knew that Cao Cao killed Sun Ce, smiled, "There are so many injustices. No one can blame. I also persuaded him back then, but he didn't listen.

"That's right." Xun Yu's pale lips curled up, "He never cared much about what I said."

Touching on Sun Ce's death, Zhou Yu wanted to ask something more.Xun Yu didn't seem to have heard of it, he just said, "If only I had been firmer..."

He let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile, "You and I are burdened with too many dead things."

Zhou Yu was taken aback.

He suddenly realized that Sun Ce's death was very likely to hide other secrets.

"Captain!" Lu Su's voice came from outside the tent, "It's time to go!"

Damn, is it already this hour... Zhou Yu looked at Xun Yu and said, "Come back, I'll ask you again—"

"Ah."

"Captain, please leave quickly—"

"Here we come!" Zhou Yu stood up, "—please tell me the truth."

Xun Yu looked at him and smiled.

"Well. I promise you."

Zhou Yu got the promise, put on his cloak and walked out of the camp.

The night of the cold river, the green forest of bells and chimes.

Xun Yu's throat sweetened, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

On the snow-white quilt, it looks like a dying lotus.

There is no chance, Gongjin.

I don't have the chance to see you in ordinary clothes, and I don't have the chance to tell you the stories of the past, and I don't have the chance to... tell you the truth.

It would be great if you could talk to Bong Hyo more.Not as tense as last time.Sit together, eat something, talk.He is actually a very nice person, and you will definitely become friends.

...Maybe everything will be different.

But it doesn't make any sense to say that.

He raised his head, as if he could see the clear starry sky.

It's finally coming to an end, Bong Hyo.

Just tonight.

Let the anger of troubled times ignite Chibi.

42.

All the way down the river.

Thousands of miles of boats, thousands of miles of Cangjiang River, flying with flags.

Zhou Yu approached Cao Cao's ship almost without hesitation.

The boat is parked on the shore and is not too big.There is an open space next to it, and even the grass on the land has been pulled out.There was only one person standing there.

"It's quite clean." Zhou Yu smiled, "In this way, people on both sides don't have to hide any hidden tricks."

As soon as Zhou Yu's boat docked, a person came out immediately.It is Xia Houshang.Xia Houshang cupped his fists, "It's Zhou Dudu, please, this way please." His attitude was polite.Zhou Yu nodded, looking at the... "Yiju" boat leaning against the shore.

"There is only the prime minister inside." Xia Houshang said: "The governor can rest assured."

"You said there is only one person?" Lu Su sneered, "How do you prove it?"

"The Prime Minister has already thought of this." Xia Houshang smiled, then approached the boat, and pulled a curtain on the side near the shore.

The straw curtain rose immediately, revealing the inside of the boat.

The boat was not big at first, so when the curtain was pulled up, only a small table was seen, and a person was sitting behind the small table, whose face was covered by another curtain.Nothing else.

It seems to be deliberately avoiding suspicion.

"The prime minister specially prepared this boat," Xia Houshang said, "so please rest assured, Governor Zhou."

Lu Su looked up and down seven or eight times, and then stepped back.

"It should be no problem."

"Yeah." Zhou Yu smiled, then hooked his lips into a smile, and said, "So what? Since you're here, why don't you go in?"

Zhou Yu's words were clear and neat, and his voice was not low, even the people in the boat could hear it.

"We have agreed in advance," Zhou Yu looked around with his hands behind his back, "There is no fifth person except me, your prime minister, you, and Zijing."

Xia Houshang
