Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 442 Shi Xie
There was nothing to say all night, but Sun Quan was tossing and turning, struggling between surrendering and not surrendering, whether he would let Jiangdong's army and people fight to the end, or surrender for the common people to save their lives.

Sun Quan struggled all night, but still did not make up his mind. He watched the dim light outside the window and the sound of cock crowing in the distance.

Compared to Sun Quan's tossing and turning, Li Song slept soundly all night.

"Your Majesty, where are you going today?" Xu Chu, the left commander of Jinyiwei, hurriedly asked when he saw that Li Song was planning to go out.

"Go to the jail!" Li Song said, looking up at the sky.

Xu Chu was taken aback. This prison is a place where prisoners are held. It is dark and humid there, and normal people would avoid it. Only when relatives are imprisoned in it will they visit the prison. Otherwise, whoever is full will run to the prison.

"No! I will order people to prepare." Xu Chu came back to his senses and replied, since the king is going to the prison, of course he must send someone to inform him first, so as not to offend the king.

After Bu Zhi was captured alive, he was ordered by Li Song to be imprisoned in the prison in Wancheng. Submissive post.

"Your Majesty, the car is ready! Do you want to drive now?" Xu Chu asked respectfully when he came back.

"Well! Let's go!" Li Song said, and walked out, followed by Xu Chu, and went out. Li Song got in the emperor's special car——Long Yu, and headed for the prison under the guard of Jin Yiwei. .

The car stopped in front of the gate of the prison. Seeing Li Song get off the car, the cell leader hurried forward and knelt down on the ground, "The villain pays homage to the king."

"Free from courtesy!" Li Song said: "You are the prison boss here."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The jailer thanked him, stood up and said, "My lord, this villain is the prison chief here."

"Lead the way ahead. The lonely king is going to see Bu Zhi who is locked here. Where is Bu Zhi locked?" Li Song nodded.

"Report to Your Majesty, Bu Zhi is being imprisoned in the A-brand Prison." The head of the cell said respectfully.

"Hmm!" Li Song frowned, this prison is usually a place for serious criminals, can Bu Zhi be counted as a serious criminal?Li Song was a little displeased and said, "Who told you to put him in a prison?"

"Your Majesty, it was General Luo who asked the villain to do this." The cell leader was so frightened that he immediately fell to the ground, pouted his buttocks, and sweated profusely.

This Luo Cheng, how can he be unreliable in doing things like this, don't he know what is the use of this step?He still needed his horse to subdue the soldiers and horses in Jiaozhou, and he threw the horse here to refresh his spirit.

In fact, Li Song didn't need to do this at all, Bu Zhi had already seen the situation clearly, and after being captured alive by Luo Cheng, he had the intention to seek refuge with Li Song, and Li Song didn't need to do anything extra.

"Okay, I don't blame you for this matter, quickly take me to see this stallion." Li Song said, there is absolutely no need to make trouble with the little jailer in front of him.

The head of the cell took Li Song to the cell where Bu Zhi was held, opened the chain on the door, and pushed open the wooden cell door.

In the dark and damp cell, a man in white with disheveled hair looked up at the cell door, meeting Li Song's eyes.

Bu Zhi had had enough of being in this dark cell, he didn't want to stay in this place any longer, he could feel the young man in front of him, and he could help him get out of this ghost place.

After the cell door was opened, Li Song came in and stood in front of Bu Zhi. The prison chief brought a chair from somewhere and put it beside Li Song. The prison chief took off his shirt and wiped the chair.

Li Song sat on the chair that had just been wiped by the prison chief, and signaled the prison chief to go out. He wanted to talk to Bu Zhi alone, and the prison chief retreated respectfully.

The attitude of the prison boss made Bu Zhi believe in the guess in his heart, whether he can go out or not depends on the young man in front of him.

"Are you Bu Zhi? How much do you know about Jiaozhou?" Li Song asked straight to the point. He wanted to know whether Bu Zhi could completely control Jiaozhou, or whether the real controller of Jiaozhou was Shi Xie.

"I have been the governor of Jiaozhou for many years, and I can still control the situation in Jiaozhou. These years, the materials and soldiers in Jiaozhou have been sent from Jiaozhou to Sun Quan to support it. Even if the six counties in Jiangdong lose three counties, they can still survive. Keep going," Bu Zhi said.

Indeed, Sun Quan's ability to maintain the remaining territory is inseparable from Bu Zhi's contribution. It can be said that with Bu Zhi's contribution, Sun Quan was able to secure half of the country. Of course, this is not only due to Bu Zhi alone.

There is also Shi Xie and his brothers from Jiaozhou, who are assisting Buzhi in governing Jiaozhou, otherwise, Buzhi would not be able to play around alone.

"Oh! How did I hear that the Jiaozhou aristocratic family was involved? Is it really only you who deserve the credit, and it has nothing to do with Shi Xie?" Li Song laughed.

According to what he knew about Shi Xie, how could it be possible for Bu Zhi to control the power of Jiaozhou alone? After all, Shi Xie came from the largest family in Jiaozhou and was very prestigious in Jiaozhou, so how could he let Bu Zhi mess around.

Bu Zhi shook his head, how could it have nothing to do with Shi Xie, thinking that as soon as he arrived in Jiaozhou, Shi Xie led Jiaozhou to seek refuge, many aspects could not be carried out without the support of Shi Xie and his family.

"Naturally, it has something to do with Shi Xie. Many aspects require Shi Xie's cooperation to be able to run smoothly. Otherwise, it will not be able to gain a foothold at all."

"Shi Xie and his family enjoy many privileges in Jiaozhou, and their children have the priority to be nominated as officials. It can be said that most of Jiaozhou is under the control of Shi Xie and his brothers, nephews." Bu Zhi said.

Li Song frowned after hearing this. Originally, he thought that even though Shi Xie had an unusual status in Jiaozhou, he was slowly weakening him, just like other aristocratic families.

Until the family was completely subdued by him, unable to resist him and threatened the rule, he never thought that Shi Xie's family was beyond his imagination.

Shi Xie's family is already a malignant tumor in Jiaozhou, and it cannot be solved fundamentally with gentle methods. Only the force of thunderbolt sweeping the acupoints can be effective.

Li Song had some exchanges with Bu Zhi, and he had a general understanding of the current situation in Jiaozhou, and he also clearly knew what kind of weight Bu Zhi had in Jiaozhou.

"Are you willing to submit to the lonely king?" Li Song asked, this Bu Zhi is also a talent worthy of a great responsibility, so keeping him will be of great use.

When Bu Zhi heard that Li Song claimed to be the lonely king, he knew that the young man in front of him was Li Song, the king of Tang, and was very surprised!

"Sir, I would like to submit to the king, and I would like to be the king's heart and mind, and let the king drive me." Bu Zhi immediately knelt down and bowed, and without hesitation, he surrendered to Li Song's command, put his head on the ground, and pressed his forehead against the cold cell floor. Bu Zhi's refuge had his own will, but staying in this cell was indispensable.

"Stay flat!" Li Song stretched out his hands to support him.
