Uncle Emperor, I am really not Wolong Zhuge!

Chapter 150: The Merit of Military Advisor

Chapter 150: The Merit of Military Advisor
Zhou Yu stood blankly for a while, then his expression suddenly changed, his body swayed, and he almost fell into the water. He hurriedly bent over and squatted in the cabin. After a long time, he returned to normal.

A wave of water disappears in a moment.But the uproar left behind can last for a long time and spread far and wide!

What's more, the Jiangdong clan is all in Chaisang. Last time, he strongly opposed Cao Cao and killed Lu Ji, which greatly offended the Jiangdong clan. If he used this to create a quarrel, the three of them would become tigers, and I'm afraid Sun Quan might not be able to do so. Getting suspicious...

……

Chaisang, the residence of Lu Su.

"Kong Ming, I missed you so much when we said goodbye to Xiangyang last time. I didn't expect you to come to Jiangdong and see each other again. It will comfort my longing thoughts."

Lu Su and Zhuge Liang sat opposite each other under the moonlight, with a pot of tea and two thin bowls. The friendship between gentlemen was as light as water.

"The alliance between Sun and Liu was hard-won. My lord and military advisor often mentioned Zijing. He once said that if there was no Zijing in Jiangdong, the alliance would be destroyed."

Zhuge Liang gently picked up the tea bowl and said with a smile.

"Is Kong Ming's visit to Chaisang this time a business matter or a private matter? If it is a business matter, Lu Su would not dare to abandon the public affairs for personal reasons."

Zhuge Liang took a sip and praised: "Good tea! It is really good tea! Does this tea have a name?"

When Lu Su saw Zhuge Liang talking about him, he had no choice but to tell the truth: "The name of this tea is Gongfu Tea!"

Zhuge Liang said softly "Oh" and looked up at Lu Su: "Is this tea related to Huang Gai Huang Gongfu? Or is it a coincidence?"

Lu Su said: "A few years ago, Gong Jin led the generals to put down the rebellion in the mountains. Marching day and night, the soldiers were thirsty and tired and could not hold on. Huang Gai took out the homemade tea and distributed it to everyone to drink. The smell was fragrant, soothing and refreshing. The three armies were invigorated. Spirit, finally a great victory came. The mountain rebellion was put down."

"After my lord Sun Quan found out about it, in order to commend the merits of the soldiers, he named this tea Gongfu Tea. It is the most popular in our land east of the Yangtze River."

After hearing this, Zhuge Liang took another sip and sighed: "It's a pity that such a good tea has to be renamed sooner or later. Maybe it should be called Gongming Tea!"

Lu Su was shocked and said in amazement: "Why is it called Gongming Tea? Kongming's words must have a profound meaning! Please tell me clearly."

Zhuge Liang put down his tea cup, put his hands on the table, his eyes fell on Lu Su's face, and said calmly: "Cao Cao pretended to be suspicious of his troops in Wancheng, but he has already moved most of his troops to Hefei. But your heavy troops in Jiangdong have already moved to Hefei. Still stationed in Poyang. If Cao Cao's bandits suddenly send troops from Hefei to attack Chaisang, I'm afraid your lord will become a prisoner overnight. If Jiangdong doesn't exist, what's the value of this public tea?"

"I heard that Xu Huang and Xu Gongming are now the commander-in-chief of Hefei. Does Gongfu Tea have to be renamed Gongming Tea?"

Lu Su was shocked, his arms trembled, and he knocked the tea bowl in front of him to the ground, smashing it to pieces!
"Since there is such an important matter, why didn't you tell me earlier? I also ask Kong Ming to take the trouble to follow me into the palace immediately to see Wu Hou and state the facts."

Zhuge Liang laughed loudly, picked up the teapot again, poured himself a full bowl of tea, and said leisurely and contentedly: "No hurry! No rush! How can such good tea be wasted? It's tasteless to me. It's not too late to go see Wu Hou again. Zijing, please bring another bowl and I'll fill it up for you."

Lu Su was extremely anxious. He stood up and took Zhuge Liang's arm: "The army is like a huge force. A quarter of an hour can decide the life or death of the country! How can we delay? When this matter is over, I will treat you to a drink for three days and three nights." , so why not!”

"No matter what happens at this time, please Kong Ming follow me into the palace, meet Wu Hou, and state my interests!"

Zhuge Liang half refused and murmured: "I'm afraid that the Marquis of Wu will be suspicious and refuse to believe it. Instead, he thinks that I, Jingzhou, are plotting to trap Jiangdong!"

As Lu Su dragged Zhuge Liang out, he said anxiously: "I have everything to do with you. Just speak truthfully."

Zhuge Liang looked helpless and followed Lu Su in his car to drive to Wuhou Palace at starry night.

……

It was already time to hand over the child, and the car was driving. Looking from a distance, it was dark inside the Wuhou Palace. The towering palace stood in the dark night, like a ferocious beast, sleeping with its eyes closed, waiting for the prey to pass by and choose to bite it. .

Lu Su immediately dismounted and opened the palace door.When the gatekeeper saw that it was Lu Su, he did not dare to delay and quickly reported into the inner palace.

In a side hall, Lu Su and Zhuge Liang sat down for only a moment. The door curtain opened, and Sun Quan, the Marquis of Wu, with a purple beard and a gray beard, walked in wearing hemp shoes.

It must have been an emergency, with his hair disheveled and his clothes disheveled. However, Lu Su and Sun Quan had known each other for many years and did not mind each other. Precisely because of this, Sun Quan heard Lu Su Qi's request for an audience at night and did not dare to do so, fearing that it was an extremely urgent matter. It's the delay that makes you so confused.

"Oh!"

"Is this Mr. Kong Ming?"

Sun Quan walked in and saw Zhuge Liang sitting upright. He was slightly surprised and said calmly.

He came straight to Lu Su's single bridge, so he dressed up like this. When he saw Zhuge Liang, he felt a little embarrassed, but if he went back to tidy up his clothes, it seemed too fake and wasted time.

"My lord, Kong Ming has just arrived in Jiangdong. There is something urgent, so I brought him to see you at night."

Lu Su did not dare to mention the fact that Kong Ming came to his home first. He only said that as soon as Kong Ming arrived in Jiangdong, he came to see Wu Hou.

"Oh? Why are you so panicked? Could it be that Fancheng still doesn't have enough food and grass, and does it need additional support?"

Sun Quan originally thought it was Lu Su who was meeting in an urgent matter, but when he saw it was Kong Ming, he felt much more relaxed. Since it was a matter in Jingzhou, the priority had nothing to do with him!
Kong Ming saw Sun Quan's lazy look and immediately understood what he was thinking.He looked back at Lu Su and said with a smile: "Zijing, you are so anxious that you insist on bringing me here to disturb Wu Hou's dream, but you don't know that Wu Hou is not in a hurry. We will talk in detail after waking up from the dream." , wouldn’t it be good?”

While talking, he bowed to say goodbye to Sun Quan and then left.

"Wait!"

"Kong Ming, don't do this!"

Lu Su hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Kong Ming's sleeve with one hand to stop him.

"Lord, Cao Cao's 30 troops are stationed in Hefei and attack Chaisang day and night. Our Jiangdong is in danger!" Lu Su turned his head and said anxiously to Sun Quan.

"what?"

Sun Quan was shaken and knocked the bowl of ginseng tea that the waiter had just brought to the ground with a clang.

Lu Su appeased Zhuge Liang, bowed before Sun Quan, and kowtowed: "Cao Cao secretly built a plank road to Chencang, under the pretext of stationing troops in Wancheng to attack Jingzhou. However, he secretly sent half of his troops to Move to Hefei, plan to attack from the east and attack from the west, launch an attack suddenly from the east, and defeat in one battle, it will be detrimental to the lord! Kong Ming came here overnight to report the news to the lord!"

Sun Quan's color changed. Unexpectedly, Chai Sang was already at the enemy's bloody mouth, but he didn't know it. He was content all day long, thinking he was safe.

But he was also a hero of the generation. After pondering for a moment, he immediately straightened his mind, walked a few steps forward, came to Zhuge Liang, bowed and saluted, and said apologetically: "I don't know that Mr. Wolong came all the way to Chaizhou." Sang, it was for the sake of me, Jiangdong, that I was a bit rude just now, and I hope Mr. Wolong will be lenient!"

As he spoke, he bowed deeply and begged for forgiveness.

Lu Su also followed, saluted Zhuge Liang and said, "Mr. Wolong is a scholar, so he won't mind. I also hope that the friendship between my family, Sun Liu, and my family will be our top priority, and we will work together to defeat Cao Cao."

Zhuge Liang hurriedly returned the salute, bowed to the ground, and said with a smile: "Liang came to Jiangdong to meet Wu Marquis on the orders of my military advisor Zhuge Wende, just to save the crisis. If Zhuge military advisor hadn't sent him, Liang and Zijing would have been close friends. I won’t come to Jiangdong either. This place will suffer the trampling of iron hooves in a short time, and the foundation of three generations will be destroyed in one day. I can’t bear it!”

Sun Quan turned around and ordered his servants to prepare a banquet in honor of Zhuge Liang.Zhuge Liang shook his head repeatedly and said to stop him: "Wu Hou, there is no need to be like this. Let's talk about business first."

After the three of them sat down, Kong Ming first asked: "Can Lu Bu's general Zhang Wenyuan be defeated by the princes?"

Sun Quan shook his head and said sternly: "Zhang Liao is Cao Cao's No. 1 general. He is brave and resourceful, and has magical powers and strategies. If Zhou Gongjin hadn't personally taken action in Jiangdong, I'm afraid no one else could be his opponent. What's more, Chai Sang's army is weak and he has no good generals. How can I defeat him! I also ask Mr. Wolong to give me some advice and help Jiangdong overcome this difficulty."

Lu Su also said: "Earlier, my Jiangdong scout also reported Cao Cao's intention to move to Hefei, but then nothing happened. I didn't expect it to be like this. Cao Cao's thieves were secretive and difficult to predict. If it weren't for Kong Ming's predecessor Come and report, my lord knows nothing about it.”

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "But now Zhang Liao has been captured by Zhuge Military Advisor. Hefei has 30 soldiers and horses, and there is a shortage of food and grass. There are no generals in the army. If the princes want to raise troops to attack, now is a good opportunity. If Cao Cao waits until he has selected good generals, he will be divided. When grain and grass arrive, firewood and mulberry trees will be in danger."

Sun Quan was shocked again that Zhang Liao was captured, he didn't know anything about it!I didn't expect Jiangdong's scouts to be so useless, but deep down, I was wondering, since Zhang Liao was captured, it must have happened in Jingzhou.Why did Zhou Yu station troops in Poyang and know nothing about it?Or did he already know about this but kept it secret?
It also reminds me of Zhou Yu's secret meeting with Chen Qun in the past, which was also kept secret and not reported.So far, Zhou Yu's letters have not mentioned anything about Chen Qun, and he can't help but feel suspicious and confused.

Zhuge Liang saw Sun Quan's surprised look on his face, but his eyes were wandering, so he guessed what he was thinking. He raised his head and asked, "Does Marquis Wu know that a few days ago, Chen Qun went to Poyang to secretly meet with the governor Zhou Lang?"

Sun Quan suddenly woke up and said hurriedly: "I have heard a little bit, but I don't know the details."

Zhuge Liang said: "Cao Cao wants to use Chen Qun as an envoy to alienate the relationship between you and the governor. However, the governor is dedicated to serving the public good. Instead, he conspired with my Zhuge military advisor and used Chen Qun as bait to lure Zhang Liao and hunt for Jiangxia."

"The governor killed Cao Cao's favorite general Xiahou De, while Guan Yunchang captured Zhang Liao."

"So Zhang Liao's capture is also due to the Governor. I expected that the Governor was indifferent to fame and fortune, so he might not report the matter to the princes. I also asked the Marquis of Wu to reward the Governor and the troops heavily to boost the morale of the soldiers."

Zhou Yu had a secret meeting with Chen Qun, but did not report it to Sun Quan. Chai Sang's four advisers, led by Zhang Zhao, were extremely dissatisfied and reported to Sun Quan many times, demanding that Zhou Yu be punished for his disobedience. Even Lu Su had to suspect Zhou Yu's selfish motives. , I don’t take my lord seriously, and if I want to defend him, I can’t do it.

On the surface, Sun Quan supported Zhou Yu and rejected all opinions, but in his heart, he gradually became suspicious. Recently, he even secretly sent spies and scouts to Poyang, intending to monitor Zhou Yu's every move.

Kong Ming's words cleared away Sun Quan's doubts, and he murmured unconsciously: "Gong Jin is dedicated to the country, works hard and never complains, and never refutes. If you don't treat him as a brother, and treat him with all your heart, your ancestors will not tolerate it. God bless you!"

Lu Su stood aside, grateful and full of admiration: "Sun and Liu are allied, but Zhou Lang is worried about the strength of Jingzhou, which makes him sick, and wants to plot against Jingzhou every time he gets the chance. However, Zhuge Wende in Jingzhou is the head of the same family. His deputy is broad-minded, does not care about gains and losses, sincerely thinks about Jiangdong, and even takes the initiative to clarify the facts for Zhou Yu and eliminate the misunderstanding of the lord!"

Zhuge Liang suddenly stood up, faced Sun Quan, and said seriously: "Now the situation is clear. If the princes take the initiative to attack Hefei, they can win a great victory. The danger of Chaisang can be solved, and Cao Cao's spirit can be frustrated."

"If it is delayed for a long time, until Cao Cao develops his strength, no matter how determined the prince is, he will be seeking death by hitting an egg against a stone!"

Sun Quan nodded, lowered his head and pondered, walking back and forth, sometimes frowning, sometimes relaxing.Not long after, he suddenly let out a long sigh, but then gradually started to smile. He seemed to be thinking a lot, hesitant and worried.

Kong Ming said nothing and looked at Lu Su, as if to say: "When I come, I predict that your master will not be able to make up his mind. Instead, he probably thinks that I will plot against you Jiangdong!"

Lu Su's face was full of shame, and he was about to say something to persuade. Suddenly, Sun Quan stood still and said, "Mr. Wolong, it's getting late. This is a serious matter. Can I make a decision after I get back to the ministers tomorrow?"

Zhuge Liang smiled faintly, nodded and said: "At this time, the prince's own affairs have nothing to do with me. I am just following orders to complete the tasks assigned by Zhuge Wende's military advisor. As for whether you Jiangdong wants to send troops, it is up to you."

Sun Quan thanked Zhuge Liang again, turned to Lu Su and said, "Mr. Wolong is a rare visitor to me from Jiangdong, so I can't wait any longer. Since Mr. Zhuge has a deep friendship with you, I can invite you to stay at your house for a while. I will come to a conclusion tomorrow." Make an appointment with Mr. Zhuge to discuss important matters together."

Lu Su and Zhuge Liang paid their respects to Sun Quan, left Wuhou Palace, and returned to Lu Su's residence.

"Kong Ming, Jiangdong's stability is all due to you!"

After walking down the steps at the entrance of Wuhou Palace, Lu Su held Zhuge Liang's arm and said gratefully.

Kong Ming smiled: "This is all the result of the military advisor. I was just following orders."

Lu Su frowned and said: "Since Chen Qun entered Poyang, Chai Sang's dirty words against Zhou Gongjin have been rampant. If three people become tigers, it will definitely come true in the long run. But Gongjin has a stubborn character and never defends his actions. . I am really worried that Xiao Qiang and Jiangdong will mess up their position first. If you come here this time, let alone whether the Lord will listen to your idea and raise an army to attack Cao Cao. Simply eliminating the danger of civil strife in Jiangdong is a blessing to Jiangdong. A great kindness!”

When I first came to Wuhou Palace, it was still cloudy and there was no moonlight at all.At this time, they left Wuhou Palace and talked about the bright moon shining on the heaven and earth. The bright moonlight cast their figures long on the ground.

Kong Ming and Lu Su held hands and walked side by side.Kong Ming pointed at the shadows of the two people in front of him who were closely approaching each other, and said: "Before I came to Jiangdong, the military advisor once said to me: 'The alliance between Sun and Liu is a brother. How can we just sit back and watch when brothers are in trouble? Even a drop of grace can't help us. When the gushing spring reports to me that Zijing has given me food and grass in Fancheng, I will give him a complete firewood! 'Tomorrow, it will be a matter of life and death in Jiangdong, so Zijing will be careful."

Lu Su nodded, shocked at Zhuge Ming's benevolence.Fortunately, the Sun-Liu alliance was formed.

Zhuge Wende is as resourceful as the world and has a benevolent heart. Jingzhou is invincible and can only be used as reinforcement!
