Chapter 79 The Emperor Moves Eastward
Seeing that Zhu Zhi also agreed, everyone followed suit.

"I've also seen that old god, it's so amazing!"

"Not only can you bring the dead back to life, but you can also predict fate!"

"If the general is willing, you can recruit him to escort me in Jiangdong."

When Sun Ce saw the officials talking about Yu Ji, they all became very happy and looked a little unhappy.

Just an old stickman, just showing off!
If he was so powerful and the world was in such chaos, how could he not take action?
It's nothing more than Zhang Jiao and his ilk.

Although he thought so, Sun Ce did not get angry.

In the future, if we have the opportunity, we will see who Yu Ji is and how he dares to dominate in my, Sun Ce's territory!
However, now, he has more important things.

Looking at Lu Yi, Sun Ce said with a half-smile but not a smile: "Wuxian County seems to be developing well. I heard that your Lu family's business is booming."

Lu Yi: "."

This is asking for money again!

Based on the intelligence he had received previously, Sun Ce captured Kuaiji, carried out a bloody purge of some stubborn local families, and confiscated a large amount of supplies.

The last time he and the Gu family turned over [-]% of their apparent family property was not long ago.

Under normal circumstances, Sun Ce would not rush for supplies so quickly.

Could it be that something else happened?

Suddenly, Lu Yi's heart lit up.

It is now the beginning of winter in the second year of Xingping.

Judging from the time, at this time, in addition to taking over Kuaiji, another major event happened in the world——

That is the emperor's eastward movement.

After the emperor Liu Xie experienced the rebellion between Li Jue and Guo Si, he was kidnapped out of Chang'an by Yang Feng and others, fled to Hongnong, and issued the Qin Wang Order to all the princes in the world.

Sun Ce should have also received the news.

Although Sun Ce was ambitious, in the original history, he regarded himself as a Han minister from beginning to end.

At this time, he should also want to go to King Qin.

Of course, Jiangdong is obviously not a suitable place.

However, Lu Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Sun Ce is indeed not suitable for King Qin.

However, it is possible to completely and formally oppose Yuan Shu.

Neither Yuan Shu nor Sun Ce had any intention of attacking each other before.

And now, current events finally push the two to fight.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi pretended that he still didn't know anything and said to Sun Ce honestly: "It's not bad to entrust General Hongfu. If the general needs anything from our Lu family, our Lu family will do our best."

Zhu Zhi has always had a good impression of Lu Yi and the Lu family.

Not only his brother-in-law Shi Huan was in the Lu family.

This is especially because the Lu family has been conscientiously doing business and learning in Wu County, and they have not made trouble.

At this moment, seeing that Sun Ce seemed to want to collect grain from the Lu family again, Zhu Zhi asked Sun Ce: "Young General, is something big happening?"

Everyone also looked at Sun Ce.

Sun Ce was also very satisfied with Lu Yi's attitude.

Walking up to Lu Yi, patting him on the shoulder, Sun Ce said: "The emperor has recently come out of Chang'an and was taken to Hongnong."

"Along the way, Li Jue and Guo Si's followers pursued and drove away the emperor in every possible way."

"Now, the Emperor has issued the Qinwang Order to all the princes in the world."

"This is a God-given opportunity."

"If the emperor can come to Jiangdong, we will have the justice to help the Han Dynasty."

Everyone immediately started talking.

Sun Ce continued: "So, this time I asked Old General Cheng Pu and others to continue attacking near Kuaiji, while I led part of the army to rush back."

"Now, we have an army, but we still lack food and grass."

Looking at Lu Yi, Gu Yong and others, Sun Ce said with a smile on his face: "In today's Jiangdong, I heard that Wu County is the richest. So, I wonder if all the family heads are willing to help me help the Han Dynasty and save the building. About to fall?"

The family heads suddenly fell silent.Everyone was just bleeding.

Now, bleeding again?

When Sun Ce saw the reactions of all the family heads, his face instantly darkened, and he snorted and said: "Family heads, you are here when the court is there. If the court is gone, who are you?"

Zhu Zhi sighed secretly and did not dare to speak.

Seeing this, Lu Yi on the side said, "If the general wants to serve the king, we can only support him. But, general, I have a few questions, I don't know whether I should ask them."

Everyone saw Lu Yi speaking and heaved a sigh of relief.

If someone takes the lead, that's the best.

If the Lu family is willing to give up everything, no matter how unwilling they are, there is nothing they can do.

Seeing that Lu Yi was willing to come forward, Sun Ce was very happy and said: "Master Lu is really considerate. I didn't misjudge the person. Tell me, what's your problem?"

Lu Yi said: "If the general wants to serve the king, in what capacity?"

Sun Ce said: "The governor of Kuaiji is under Yuan Shu's tent."

Lu Yi asked back: "Has the general informed Yuan Shu? Now that the general has captured Danyang County, Wu County and Kuaiji County, will the army and territory be handed over to Yuan Shu? If not, as far as Yuan Shu is concerned, the general may want Qin Wang. No."

Sun Ce frowned.

Lu Yi said again: "If you really want to be the King of Qin, if the general claims to be under Yuan Shu's account, how can Yuan Shu give up this credit to the general?"

"Not to mention asking the emperor to move to Jiangdong."

"Once the emperor moves to Jiangdong, what will be Yuan Shu's identity?"

"If the general does not consider himself to be under Yuan Shu's tent, then Yuan Shu would be even less likely to let you, general, leave Jiangdong and go north to King Qin."

Zhu Zhi echoed: "Young General, Master Lu's words make sense."

"Now that the emperor is suffering, everyone can serve the king, but we cannot."

"After all, we have Yuan Shu suppressing us."

Lu Yi said: "Not only that, I heard that Yuan Shu is very ambitious."

"There were even rumors circulating in Shouchun before that Tu Gao was going to replace Da Han, and Tu Gao was closely related to Yuan Shu's cousin."

"Now that the emperor is suffering, I'm afraid Yuan Shu has other plans."

Looking at Sun Ce, Lu Yi said: "If the general wants to help the king, but we really can't do it, we can ask Yuan Shu as a Han minister to send troops to help the king. If instead of sending troops, he takes other actions——"

Sun Ce asked: "How?"

Lu Yi said: "This is the perfect time for the general to break away from Yuan Shu."

"The general now controls Danyang County, Wu County and Kuaiji County."

"Even if you are separated from Yuan Shu, there is no need to be afraid."

"Besides, the general holds great righteousness."

Everyone also looked at Sun Ce.

indeed.

These people were either the former generals of Sun Ce's father Sun Jian, or they were soldiers recruited in Danyang with the help of the Zhou family, and had nothing to do with Yuan Shu.

They certainly didn't want to continue to suffer under Yuan Shu's hands.

When Sun Ce heard what Lu Yi said, he started to murmur in his heart.

Yuan Shu has never looked at him!

He has been looking for an opportunity to break away from Yuan Shu.

Now, does it seem feasible?
However, Sun Ce did not respond immediately.

Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong were rushing over from Ou A with their mother.

These two are the capable officials named by Zhou Yu's father Zhou Yi.

After discussing with them, it is not too late to make a decision.

Thinking of this, Sun Ce smiled and said to Lu Yi: "Master Lu is right, this matter still needs to be discussed. I am also a little tired today, so I will stop here for now. When I have a good rest, I will call everyone to discuss it."

After that, he walked straight down to the north gate tower of the city.
