Chapter 767 Admiration
In Jianye City, blood flowed all over the ground.

The heads of Yu Fan and Zhu Xuan were hung on the gate of the city. Only Gu Mu found out that the situation was not good, so he left the city early and fled back to his hometown in Wujun.

Batch after batch of small tyrants were pinned down on the long street.

"cut!"

The long knife fell, and the heads rolled.

"The parents who gave birth to me, the prime minister who lived me!" The hatred in the eyes of the people gradually evolved into gratitude to Zhong Hui.

Wherever Zhong went, he knelt down.

In the past, his reputation was only spread among scholars, but now he has become the savior of this city.

"Prime Minister! Prime Minister!"

Countless people were shouting loudly.

It was Chung who would save them from the knife's edge.

It is Zhonghui who will help them avenge their revenge and save this prosperous city from the disaster of swords and soldiers.

Even if the clock announces succession to the emperor, I am afraid there will not be many people who oppose it.

Some old people burst into tears.

Zhong Hui hurried forward and helped them up one by one, "Hui is incompetent, if I had discovered the ambitions of these thieves earlier, I wouldn't have let you suffer such a catastrophe!"

Expressions, movements, and tone of voice are all perfect.

"The prime minister's kindness, I will never forget it!" The people were more and more moved.

Lu Kai standing behind Zhong Hui felt like falling into an ice cave.

"Big Sima, please!" Zhong Hui made a "please" gesture to Lu Kai.

Lu Kai's heart trembled, walking in the blood, he wanted to ask for mercy, but he couldn't open his mouth.

Even if he spoke, Zhong Hui would definitely not agree.

The young emperor Sun Jin looked at the heads of people all over the street, clapped his hands and applauded, "Good job, good job, these thieves dare to disobey me and the prime minister!"

Zhong Hui bowed his hands humbly at the side and said: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, you must not be disrespectful in front of others, and you should not show your anger or joy. What I have done today is out of necessity. If you don't kill them, they will kill you in the future." , Abolish Your Majesty."

Sun Jin immediately sat upright on the imperial chariot, "What the prime minister said is true."

Lu Kai sighed, "I understand, Your Excellency is neither Sima Yi nor Zhuge Liang."

Zhong Hui laughed and said, "Could it be Dong Zhuo?"

Lu Kai stared at him, "Wang Mang!"

When Wang Mang was humble and humble, who would know the authenticity of his life?

Compared with Wang Mang, Sima Yi's usurpation of the throne seems too lacking.

It cost nothing to win the world of the Han family.

Zhong Hui said with a smile: "I am me, neither Wang Mang nor Sima Yi, so the Lu family should think clearly whether they want to help a certain person in the same boat, or part ways?"

"The Lu family will never be a traitor!" Lu Kai maintained his demeanor as a scholar.

"It seems that Da Sima still hasn't seen the general trend of the world clearly." Zhong Hui took out a letter and handed it to Lu Kai.

Lu Kai took it, and after reading it, his face turned blue and white, and his eyes were filled with anger. The letter was written to Lu Kang. In his name, his handwriting...

"What did your Excellency do different from Sima Yi's Luoshui oath? It must be cast aside by the people of the world!"

"You are wrong. I have good intentions. Since the Lu family is hesitant, I will help you make a decision! Jiangdong has been in chaos for so many years, and you should not fight with each other. The name of Lu Youjie has been admired for a long time. Fengyi, you can live up to your life!" Zhong Hui raised his head with a look of intoxication, took the letter from Lu Kai, and handed it to the messenger beside him.

All news of Jianye going west was blocked by Zhonghui.

So Lu Kang didn't know what happened to Jianye.

The messenger got on his horse, reined in the horse's head, and galloped westward.

Lu Kai shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, don't be fooled by your cleverness. I'm afraid you won't be able to hide it from the general with such a small skill."

"Thank you, Da Sima, for reminding me, a certain piece of sincerity, I just want to see Lu Youjie's demeanor!"

In less than ten days, this letter appeared in Lu Kang's hands.

However, Lu Kang was full of doubts, "The chief commander met at Xiakou in Zhonghui to conspire to attack Xiangyang."

All the generals were taken aback.

The Lu family and Zhong Hui are divided into rival courts, with the Lu family occupying Jingzhou and Zhong Hui occupying Jiangdong, almost a tacit understanding has been formed.

This is also in the best interests of both parties.

As long as Zhong Hui doesn't go too far, Lu Kang will hold his nose and admit it.

It is not so easy to be a powerful minister in Jiangdong.

Zhuge Ke, Sun Jun, Sun Wei, Zhang Bu, Puyang Xing, all of them have learned from the past.

"With our army alone, I'm afraid it will be difficult to capture Xiangyang. What Da Sima did is justified." Zuo Yi said.

Wu Yan said: "Could it be that Da Sima was made by the Zhonghui? That's why he had to write this letter?"

"The general outline of the Great Sima Festival, how can it be Zhong Hui who has repeatedly admonished the late emperor?" Lu Kang thought about it, and suddenly laughed, "I know that Zhong Hui's calligraphy is famous all over the world, and he is very good at copying their handwriting. , this letter must come from his hand!"

Both Zhong Yao and Zhong Hui's calligraphy were famous for a while.

Zhong Hui has many works in Jiangdong, so Lu Kang will of course pay attention to this opponent, so he knows Zhong Hui's strengths.

Besides, Zhong Hui used this strategy not once or twice.

"So it is!" The generals suddenly realized.

Wu Yan cupped his hands and said: "Could it be that Zhonghui wants to murder the general! This thief is so courageous, we can pretend to be a trick and set up an ambush to capture him alive!"

"I have no intention of plotting against Zhonghui, but Zhonghui has plans for me! These years, if I hadn't worried about Jiangdong's exhaustion and civil strife, I would have led the army to Jianye to get rid of this harm for Jiangdong. Anyway, Zhonghui Since he is here to die, I will give him a ride!" Lu Kang, who was always gentle, couldn't help being a little annoyed.

No matter how you avoid it, Zhong Hui will break with the Lu family sooner or later.

The reason why Zhong Hui forbears it is only because of the existence of Lu Kai in Jingzhou.

Yang Hu in Xiangyang City was rather depressed.

In the past two months, the north and the south were jittery, and Xiangyang was ready to attack Xiangyang at any time.

But after such a long time, the thunder is loud and the rain is little.

To this day, a messenger comes from the north.

"The governor of my family admires you, and specially sent bows and crossbows and armor to help defend the city. If Xiangyang does not support it, my Daqin will rush south to help at any time!"

"I have also admired Du Yuankai's name for a long time. You can rest assured that Xiangyang will not surrender to Qin, nor will it surrender to Soochow!" Yang Hu said in a deep voice.

This is simply sending charcoal in the snow, but it's a pity that no food is sent, otherwise it would be perfect.

But Yang Hu is not a greedy person.

Keep Xiangyang, and keep his reputation.

It is naturally impossible to surrender to Qin State back then.

"In that case, I will take my leave." The envoy bowed and turned to leave.

Army Sima Xu Yin said: "Qin is just afraid that we will surrender to Soochow, so we need to stabilize us first. There must be no good intentions here!"

"It's okay, we may take advantage of the situation, the Great Jin is one day, and you and I are Jin officials one day!"

With the support of Qin State, Yang Hu became more confident in defending Xiangyang.

"What if Da Jin isn't here anymore?" Two balls of fire rose in Xu Yin's eyes.

Everyone in Xiangyang is deliberately avoiding this question.

"The general trend of the world cannot be changed. Hold Xiangyang and wipe out Jiangdong in the future. You have made outstanding achievements, and you can also be promoted in Qin." Yang Hu had already made plans.

Surrendering in vain like this has a bad reputation, and even if you go to Qin, you won't be welcomed.

The family members who stayed in Luoyang might be punished by Sima Yan.

But now, with fame and future, the family can be preserved.

It's just three birds with one stone.

"Governor's advice!" The big stone in Xu Yin's heart fell to the ground.

I am most afraid of Yanghu's foolish loyalty, so let Xiangyang be buried with him.
