Chapter 145 Zhou Yu is not moved by words
Xu Shu replied: "Xu Shu came over the day before yesterday and presented a letter from my lord.
It's all because my lord is young and drinks too much. After drinking, he often offends the authority of the governor in his letters, which makes the governor angry.
After I went back and reported to my lord, my lord felt deeply sorry, so he sent me to apologize to the Grand Governor. At the same time, I will return the helmet of your lord that was captured last time."
After Xu Shu finished speaking, he ordered his servants: "Present the helmet of the Marquis of Wu."
The servant brought Sun Quan's helmet, and Xu Shu held it with both hands and came to Zhou Yu, waiting for Zhou Yu to take it.
When Zhou Yu saw it, his face turned red and white, and he cursed in his heart: "Little Liu Cong, you are humiliating me! Grandma." He scolded like this, but he couldn't stand up.
Xu Shu smiled slightly when he saw it, and thought to himself: "Zhou Yu still hasn't escaped my lord's expectations. When I came, my lord told me that Zhou Yu is the most jealous by nature. He is talented but narrow-minded."
So this time, Sun Quan will not be able to save face by sending back Sun Quan’s helmet in person. When the time comes, you can just talk about handing over the helmet without being verbose, and just use words to distract him from his train of thought.”
When Xu Shu thought of this, he put his helmet on the table next to him and sat down again without saying a word.
At this time, Zhou Yu looked at Sun Quan's helmet carefully and saw a gap two fingers wide on it. He was surprised and thought to himself: "Fortunately, my lord is wearing this helmet, otherwise, he would be no longer alive now. But it's
I don’t know who caused this wound.”
When Xu Shu saw Zhou Yu's mood, he said: "Oh, the governor is leading his troops to fight. On the battlefield, there are flashes of swords and shadows, and arrows are flying everywhere. If you are not careful, you will be killed or injured. So, you should be careful.
All things? It's best to resolve them through negotiation and avoid going to war.
The last time the two families fought, my lord regretted it very much and deeply regretted that he should not have chased your lord to Niutoushan. Therefore, I ordered you to come over and return your lord's helmet as a sign of reconciliation between the two families."
When Zhou Yu heard this, his mind was aroused, and he felt that Xu Shu's words were very pleasant. If Liu Cong really meant this, it would be a great joy for Soochow.
Then, Zhou Yu's face gradually softened and he replied: "Well, what your ambassador said makes sense. Since your lord is willing to reconcile the two families, he has also returned my lord's helmet. On behalf of my lord, I would like to express my deep gratitude."
After the atmosphere in the big tent calmed down, Xu Shu said: "Actually, our two families don't need to mobilize troops. All matters can be resolved properly through negotiation. Do you think so, Commander-in-Chief?"
"Yes, yes." After Zhou Yu said this, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said: "Since your master wants to make peace again, when will you withdraw your troops from Soochow and return Wuchang to us? Rebirth Everywhere Gold Latest
chapter."
Before Zhou Yu finished speaking, Xu Shu said to himself: "Zhou Yu's ideas are not beyond my lord's expectations at all. Haha. Don't be impatient. Let's read my lord's letter before talking."
After Xu Shu listened to Zhou Yu's words, he stood up and took out Liu Cong's autographed letter from his arms. He stood up straight, held up his hands, and handed over Liu Cong's letter.
Zhou Yu then opened it and read it in his seat.
Liu Cong's tone in the letter was very humble. The letter was written like this, and the general meaning was: "During the rule of Jingzhou, Liu Cong once again paid homage to Duke Zhou, the commander-in-chief of the three armies of Soochow. Since Liu Cong was born, the only person he has admired is Da.
There is only one governor. The great governor is wise, brave and decisive, and versatile in both civil and military affairs. He is unparalleled in the world."
When Zhou Yu read this, he felt numb and comfortable in his heart.
When Xu Shu took a peek, he saw that Zhou Yu's face gradually became clearer, and he felt relieved, thinking that he would not be able to receive another nasty beating today.
Here Zhou Yu continued to read. Liu Cong first gave Zhou Yu a high hat in the letter, comforting him, and then changed the topic and continued, "The governor's belly contains the ambition of the universe, and his chest is all over the world.
Wushuang, when he was born in troubled times, he should have raised his arms and summoned the heroes of the world.
He swept away the heroes, exterminated the rebels, revived the Han Dynasty, and made immortal contributions. However, God never waits for the right time, and time waits for no one. As a result, most of the governors were in vain for their talents, and they were subordinate to the Sun family in Jiangdong.
Servant, I worked hard and devoted my whole life to assist the Sun family for two generations, and finally achieved great success."
After Zhou Yu read this, he unconsciously raised his head and looked at Xu Shu. A feeling of grievance, suppression and helplessness arose in his heart, and he thought to himself: "This kid Liu Cong really knows how to understand people's thoughts."
Zhou Yu thought of this and continued reading. The letter said: "The Sun family has a violent temperament and a narrow mind, and it is difficult for them to achieve great things. The reason why they have achieved such hegemony and occupied Jiangdong is really due to the power of the governor. If not
With the assistance of the Grand Governor, how could the Sun family be as wealthy as they are today?"
Zhou Yu read this and felt more comfortable the more he read. When he hurriedly read down, the letter added: "The Sun family deceives the world and pretends to be the direct descendants of Sun Wu, but they are actually the descendants of foreign barbarians.
Even if the Grand Governor is a talented person, he will not be able to help the Sun family dominate the world.
If you don't believe it, please go back and think about it. Did Sun Jian, Sun Ce and his son die because of their narrow-minded and extreme temperaments?
Let’s look at Sun Quan in the past. He had blue eyes, purple beard, and a big mouth. He was not the heir of a barbarian, so how could he have such an appearance?
Therefore, assisting Sun Quan really failed to live up to the great talent of the governor."
After Zhou Yu read this, he followed Liu Cong's prompts and began to think about Sun Quan's appearance. He said to himself: "What Liu Cong said makes sense. But well, it is said that Liu Cong can predict. It is true."
Perhaps my lord Sun Quan really is the queen of the barbarians. If that were the case, I would be dead. Ah! What a pity. Alas...!"
Zhou Yu continued to read and wrote in the letter: "Grand Governor, I, Liu Cong, admire you as a famous general in the world. The more you can come and assist me, Liu Cong, in taking charge of Jingzhou's great cause, it is still what you said last time... Officials below the governor of Jingzhou,
It’s your choice.”
Zhou Yu thought for a while after reading it, and felt that this letter had the same meaning as the previous one, which was to persuade him to surrender to Jingzhou. He sneered and cursed secretly: "Grandma, do you think I am a three-year-old child? Surrender. It's a joke."
"
Although he was scolding like this, his heart was warmed by Liu Cong's deception, so he did not lose his temper. He turned around and said to Xu Shu: "Please send the envoy back to convey Zhou Yu's message and say that I, Sun Quan, thank Liu Zhizhong for his kindness. Well, as for the world,
The question of belonging, I am Zhou Yu
I only have opinions. Don't come here to use useless rhetoric and waste paper and ink. Hahaha. Besides, my master has gone back to Chaisang to make some concoctions due to the cold. He will be cured soon. We have nothing to rely on here. If you don't have anything else to do, please
This is a negotiation, please come back."
After Zhou Yu finished speaking, he stood up and ordered: "Send off the guests!" After saying this, he spoke his arms with his wrists and sent them out of the tent. He cupped his fists and saluted, saying: "It's not easy for Yuan Zhi to go on an envoy. Go slowly. I won't send you far." After that, he returned to the tent gracefully.
