Chapter 625 Zhang Yun invites Zhu Zhi to surrender to Cao Cao

When Zhang Yun saw Zhu Zhi coming in the living room, he immediately stepped forward and said, "General Zhu's visit really makes this humble house shine!"

"Master Zhang is just joking. How can I deserve Master Zhang's praise if I speak so humblely?"

The two exchanged some pleasantries, and Zhang Yun asked Zhu Zhi to sit down.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Yun said: "General Zhu Zhi, I wonder how you are doing recently?"

When he suddenly heard this, Zhu Zhi looked confused because he had no idea what Zhang Yun meant.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Yun immediately began to ask Zhu Zhi's opinion on the situation in Soochow.

After all, Zhu Zhi was a military general. How could he guess the thoughts of a civil servant like Zhang Yun, so he truthfully told Zhang Yun his opinion.

After Zhang Yun thought about Zhu Zhi's words, he suddenly thought to himself: 'It seems that I have found the wrong person. This Zhu Zhi also wants to surrender to Cao Cao.'

Thinking of this, Zhang Yun exchanged a few words with Zhu Zhi.

Suddenly, Zhang Yun asked Zhu Zhi what he thought of Cao Cao.

Zhu Zhi was even more shocked when he heard this, because this topic is quite sensitive now.

Zhang Yun saw that Zhu Zhi was a little surprised, and he immediately said: "General Zhu Zhi, there are only you and me here now. No third person will know what you said. I want to know your true thoughts."

Zhu Zhi thought about it for a moment and then asked: "The meaning of Master Zhang's question is a bit subtle. Could it be that Master Zhang intends to surrender to Cao Cao?"

Zhang Yun thought about Zhu Zhi's question and immediately replied: "Yes, I do have this intention."

After Zhu Zhi heard this, he was stunned for a moment and then laughed.

"I wonder why General Zhu is laughing?"

"Master Zhang, you told me that you wanted to surrender. Aren't you afraid that I would report you?"

"I believe that General Zhu will not act like this, because you also have the intention to surrender to Cao Cao."

Zhu Zhi was stunned for a moment and then replied: "Master Zhang, where do you start with these words?"

Zhang Yun then told what he had observed.

After listening to Zhang Yunzhi's words, Zhu Zhi immediately clapped his hands and applauded.

"Master Zhang is really powerful. I didn't expect that he could read my thoughts from just a few words."

"General Zhu Zhi, do you admit that you intend to surrender to Cao Cao?"

"Yes, now that the lord has not shown up, we are also very worried about this. For the sake of the family, I did have the intention to surrender to Cao Cao, but in this situation, I am powerless."

"General Zhu Zhi, this is exactly why I called you here."

"Oh? What does Mr. Zhang mean by this?"

"To be honest, I have sent a dog to get in touch with Prime Minister Cao."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhi jumped up in surprise because the news was too surprising for him.

Zhang Yun saw Zhu Zhi's surprised look, and he immediately began to wait patiently.

After a short while, Zhu Zhi finally came to his senses and said, "Master Zhang, do you really mean what you said?"

"This is true. Prime Minister Cao has promised to lead his troops south immediately, but now he is faced with a difficult problem, that is, he cannot lead his troops across the river."

Zhu Zhi thought for a while and then replied: "It is indeed very difficult for Prime Minister Cao to cross the river. After all, our Soochow navy is enough to block the Northern Wei army north of the Yangtze River."

"General Zhu Zhi, that's why I asked you to come over. I hope General Zhu Zhi can instigate a naval force to help Prime Minister Cao cross the Yangtze River."

Zhu Zhi fell into deep thought after hearing this, because Zhang Yun's proposal would risk his life.

Zhang Yun saw Zhu Zhi thinking deeply, and he patiently waited for Zhu Zhi's reply.

After a long time, Zhu Zhi finally said: "Mr. Zhang, your proposal carries great risks. If the Northern Wei army does not appear, then I will be in danger."

"General Zhu Zhi, please rest assured about this. I have sent my dog ​​to contact the King of Wei again. I believe that it won't be long before the Northern Wei army will deploy troops north of the Yangtze River."

"Master Zhang, what you say is unfounded. I wonder if you have a token. If not, please forgive me for not getting involved, but I will not report you. If you have a token, I, Zhu Zhi, will be willing to help Cao Cao even if I risk my life."

The Prime Minister lends a helping hand."

Zhang Yun saw that Zhu Zhi had mentioned this, and he immediately replied: "General Zhu Zhi, I'm afraid it will take some time for me to do this. After all, I have just established contact with Prime Minister Cao."

"In that case, please forgive me for taking my leave first."

After saying this, Zhu Zhi said goodbye to Zhang Yun.

When Zhang Yun saw Zhu Zhi leaving, he immediately thought to himself: 'It seems that we have to find a way to get Huishu to ask for the token. In this way, great things can be accomplished.'

Thinking of this, Zhang Yun immediately wrote a letter and sent his servants to deliver it.

Because Zhang Wen didn't go far, the servant quickly caught up with Zhang Wen and brought Zhang Yun's message.

After hearing this, Zhang Wen immediately expressed that he understood.

The servant immediately set off back to Wanling County.

Immediately afterwards, the servant conveyed Zhang Wen's intention to Zhang Yun.

After hearing this, Zhang Wen also waited for a while.

As for Zhu Zhi, after returning to the military camp, he continued to think about whether he should listen to Zhang Yunzhi.

Time passed slowly like this.

Soon, Zhang Wen met with Cao Cao again and conveyed Zhang Yun's words to him.

After Cao Cao heard Zhang Wen's words, he expressed his willingness to take out the token without hesitation.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Wen immediately thanked Cao Cao.

Cao Cao immediately sent someone to deliver the token to Wanling County.

At the same time, Sun Ce's confidants finally found all the medicinal materials Hua Tuo needed after about a month.

Immediately, Hua Tuo began to detoxify Sun Ce for the last time.

Two hours later, Hua Tuo walked out of the house very depressed and said to everyone: "My lords, King Wu's poison has been completely eliminated, but King Wu's body is a little weak due to the poison, so it is best not to irritate him in the past month.

King Wu, if you rest for a while, King Wu will be able to fully recover."

After hearing this, Sun Quan immediately stood up and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you so much for your wonderful rejuvenation, Doctor Hua. I wonder if you would be willing to stay in Soochow and serve as an official?"

Hua Tuo immediately refused after hearing this, because his next goal was to go to Chang'an. Although he refused Wang Kai's invitation at first, he later heard about Xixia's emphasis on medicine, so he wanted to go to Chang'an to visit

After all, if the rumors were true, he still wanted to stay in Chang'an to discuss and communicate with other medical experts.

Besides, when Sun Quan saw Hua Tuo rejecting his invitation, he did not show any disappointment. After all, he only invited Hua Tuo out of gratitude, not sincerely.

At this time, Zhou Yu asked: "Miracle Doctor Hua, I wonder if we can enter the house now?"

"It doesn't matter, King Wu's poison has been resolved. Now we just need to rest. I will retire here."

After hearing this, Sun Quan immediately shouted: "Come here, give Divine Doctor Hua a hundred taels of gold as a reward."

Upon hearing this, Hua Tuo refused again because he had never charged such an expensive medical fee for treating diseases and saving lives.

When Sun Quan saw Hua Tuo rejecting him again, he suddenly felt ashamed. However, Hua Tuo was Sun Ce's savior after all, so he could only express his dissatisfaction in his heart.

At this time, Zhou Yu expressed that he would pay Hua Tuo's normal medical expenses.

Hua Tuo originally wanted to refuse, but Zhou Yu said that Hua Tuo had saved the hope of the entire Soochow after all. If he did not charge any money for the medicine, the world would inevitably laugh at the officials of Soochow.

Hua Tuo thought about it for a while and finally agreed to accept it.

After Hua Tuo got the money he deserved for the medicine, he said goodbye and left.
