Jianye City, in the main hall of Wu Kingdom.

Zhou Yugan sat upright on the top seat, his expression was extremely calm, as if there was no change in emotions at all. "I think you already know the news that Liu Bei sent an envoy. Their purpose is very simple, and they want to unite with us to fight against Cao Cao."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man quickly walked out of the line and bowed and said, "Report to the lord, I think this matter is of great importance and must not make a hasty decision. I hope the lord will think twice before doing it."

Zhou Yugan said lightly: "I wonder what Mr. Zhang Hong has to say goodbye. I am preparing to discuss it with you now."

Zhang Hong stood up and replied righteously: "I think this matter must be Liu Bei's ulterior motives. You must know that Liu Bei has no way to heaven and no way to enter the earth. That small Jiangxia City is definitely not a place to live for a long time. Therefore, his purpose this time is not an alliance on the surface, but to take the opportunity to seize our city under the guise of the alliance."

Before Zhou Yugan could speak, someone came out from Zhang Hong. When he looked closely, it was Zhang Hong's brother Zhang Zhao.

After giving a slight salute, Zhang Zhao spoke with a serious expression: "Report to the lord, I don't agree with Lord Zhang Hong's opinion. I believe everyone present knows what kind of character Liu Bei has, and he should not do such a thing. Besides, even if Liu Bei really has this idea, how can he seize a city from our territory with his only few thousand people? I think that Liu Bei's request for the alliance this time is sincere."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yugan nodded slightly: "Did Mr. Zhang Zhao propose to accept the alliance?"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhao shook his head firmly: "No, although Liu Bei does want to join us, he came up with this solution when he was desperate. The purpose is nothing more than to use our strength to compete with Cao Cao so that they can find a glimmer of life. And we have no grudges with Cao Cao, so why should we compete with Cao Cao, the overlord in the north?"

Zhou Yugan held up his chin with his hands and thought to himself, without responding to his proposal positively.

At this time, one person stood up from the team behind Zhang Zhao, but unlike the previous two, this time the general in armor was named Lu Meng. "Lord, what the two adults said before made sense. But the last general believed that we should not only not avoid this battle, but also actively confront Cao Cao. If Cao Cao was allowed to defeat Liu Bei and also take over Jingzhou, it would only make the situation even more unfavorable. Cao Cao's power is now extremely large, and if it continues to develop, we are not his opponent. Therefore, we should give them a big defeat now, just like the Battle of Red Cliffs!"

When Zhang Hong heard this, he was furious: "General Lu Meng! You are trying to push us up the fire pit. Cao Cao's power is so huge. What you said is simple, defeat them like you did. But do you think Cao Cao is a fool? Will the previous methods still work for them?"

Lu Meng looked at Zhang Hong without any concession and said righteously: "Will we be stupid if Cao Cao is not stupid? The previous tactics are not useful, can't we come up with other methods? Or do you think you are not as good as the advisers under Cao Cao?"

"you……!"

Seeing that the two were about to have a big fight, Zhou Yugan quickly coughed and said, "Okay, what you said makes sense, but now is not the time to argue. So, do you have any suggestions for other ministers?"

There was silence in the hall. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and I didn’t know what to say for a moment.

After looking around, Zhou Yugan stopped his eyes on a handsome man in the front of the left. He smiled faintly and asked, "Gongjin? I have been silent this morning. Have you come up with any good ideas?"

Zhou Yu was slightly stunned and bowed and replied, "Report to the lord, the two lords and General Lu Meng have already analyzed it almost. I have no new suggestions. It's just that I was thinking about a question before, so I remained silent."

"Oh? What's the problem?"

Zhou Yu's face shook and said seriously: "Who is the person Liu Bei sent to envoy him?"

Upon hearing this question, Zhou Yugan's eyes lit up and couldn't help but laugh: "Gongjin, Gongjin, your question is critical. This messenger is not a simple character!"

Zhou Yu smiled and said, "Well, I probably have guessed it. I think that instead of blindly speculating and quarreling here, it is better to let this messenger analyze it for us personally. What does the lord think?"

Zhou Yugan stood up from the seat, held his head up and said, "Just do it this way. I will announce that he will enter the hall tomorrow and have a good talk with you. Retreat the court!" As he said that, he took the lead and left and walked out of the side hall.

The ministers were still confused, wondering what Zhou Yu and his lord were selling in the gourd. After leaving the hall hurriedly, they all surrounded Zhou Yu and asked anxiously.

Zhou Yu couldn't help but feel a little angry and hurriedly raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down. After everyone stopped making noise, he slowly spoke: "Don't worry, everyone, I know you are all curious about who that person is, but I'm just guessing. As for whether the person tomorrow is him, I'm not sure. So, let me give you a hint, think about who in history convinced everyone to unite against Cao?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned. Zhou Yu hurriedly took this opportunity to leave the crowd. A few seconds later, everyone slapped their foreheads and a name appeared at the same time.

Mr. Wolong - Zhuge Liang!

Turning his head, Zhou Yugan left the side hall and went straight back to his residence. Sitting on a comfortable wooden chair, Zhou Yugan picked up a letter on the table, and saw that it was Zhuge Liang's name written on it.

Zhou Yu raised his mouth and said that Zhuge Liang was indeed not an ordinary person. The content he wrote in his letter was not bad at all. I still remember that when he finished reading this letter yesterday, he completely disbelief of the content. Because Zhuge Liang actually wrote in detail all his guesses about today's discussion, whether it was Zhang Hong's extreme peace, Zhang Zhao's moderate and moderate; or the full-time battle led by Lu Meng and Huang Gai, he guessed it accurately.

On the contrary, the letter did not mention the specific matters and conditions of the alliance at all, which made Zhou Yugan even more curious. At the end of the letter, Zhuge Liang also wrote a name, Zhou Yukun!

Could it be that Zhou Yukun came to Jianye together this time? If this is true, then Zhou Yu would have to deal with them even more. He hasn't figured out what happened a few days ago, and I don't know if Zhou Yukun can accept Yuan Xinwen's parents?

Thinking of this, Zhou Yugan slowly sat up from the chair. Maybe he should go to Yuan Xinwen to talk about this matter, and by the way, he could also ask her about Liu Bei's situation. Put the envelope in his arms, then got up and headed straight for Yuan Xinwen's residence. (To be continued)
