Chapter 2188: Blaming Jiangdong
Zhao Zhuo frowned and said in a deep voice: "Of course Sun Quan would not send someone to catch us blatantly! Because we just talked a little, there is no sin at all. Isn't it a joke to catch us in a clear canon?
Instead, it will make the ministers dissatisfied and make him unable to come to Taiwan. So he did this assassination to vent his personal anger!
Sun Quan, I originally thought, thought,...ah! It was me that I was naive, how could a cold-blooded man who killed his father and brother, treat us kindly!"
Zhao Fu couldn't help but look pale and asked, "Sir, then, what should we do?"
Zhao Zhuo frowned and said nothing.
Ah!! A shrill scream suddenly came from outside.
Several people in the study were shocked, and the servant who came to report the news shouted in panic: "No, it's not good! They must be here! I, I want to leave here immediately!" As he said that, he turned around and fled outside.
...
Sun Quan sat on the bed, and two beloved girls stood in front of him, and they stepped down their gauze skirts as shyly and charmingly, revealing their bodies that made any man crazy.
However, Sun Quan's eyes were not as hot as he imagined, and he seemed a little cold. It turned out that when he thought of Mr. Bu, his mood became a little depressed.
"King, I have an urgent matter to report!" The shouts of personal soldiers suddenly came from outside.
Sun Quan frowned, immediately waved his two beloved girls away, stood up, picked up the cloak, walked quickly to the door, and opened the door. He saw a captain of the Jiefan Guard standing at the door and asked immediately, "What's the matter?"
The captain immediately clasped his fists and said, "Governor Zhou came just now and said that something big happened in Yuzhang City. Come and report to the king!"
Sun Quan knew that Zhou Yu was a person. If it weren't for the kind of urgent matter that was very important, he would never have disturbed him at this time!
As soon as he thought of this, he immediately asked, "Where is the Grand Governor?"
"Waiting in the main hall."
Sun Quan immediately walked towards the hall, and the captain and the guards guarding at the door immediately followed.
Sun Quan walked into the hall and saw Zhou Yu who was waiting anxiously. He immediately walked up and asked, "Gongjin, what happened? What made you so anxious?"
Zhou Yu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "King, I just received an urgent report. Just tonight, there were consecutive assassinations in the city, killing two officials, seriously injuring three people, and the rest of the servants and servants were killed and injured countless times!"
Sun Quan was shocked and shouted, "How could this happen? Could it be that it was someone sent by Liu Xian?"
Zhou Yu said: "It should be so. Otherwise, where did the assassin come from? My subordinates were worried that the assassin would threaten the king, so they have strengthened the guards of the palace just in case. At the same time, they sent troops to guard all parts of the city to prevent similar things from happening again."
Sun Quan nodded and praised, "Gongjin did a good job!" Then he frowned, showing an annoyed look, and said, "Liu Xian is really too bullying! Gongjin, immediately send orders to send additional officers and soldiers to search from house to house. I don't believe I can't catch them!"
Zhou Yu clasped his fists and said, "Master, it may be a bit inappropriate for this. Now we are already panicked because of the previous defeat. If we search from house to house, it will probably make the already uneasy hearts even more turbulent.
If people are panicked to a certain extent, they are afraid they will do many unpredictable things, and then it will be a big trouble!"
Sun Quan felt that what Zhou Yu said made sense, nodded, then frowned and said, "If you don't search from house to house, you're afraid you won't be able to catch them at all! Could it be that you just let them go?"
Zhou Yu said: "These people will definitely not be able to stop here, they will inevitably act. If they act, they will never be during the day, but will definitely choose at night.
So during the day we only need to guard the streets and city gates and walls, and at night we will arrange ambush by officers and soldiers. The target of the other party must be officials, and it is not difficult to ambush them!"
Sun Quan nodded and said, "Just do it according to Gongjin's wishes. Gongjin, you should be fully responsible for this matter."
Zhou Yu held his fists and agreed and hurriedly retreated.
Sun Quan walked to the entrance of the hall, looked up at the stars and moon in the sky, and couldn't help but frown. An invisible heavy pressure seemed to be pressing down from the starry night sky, which made him almost breathless.
...
The next morning, the guests in the tavern and tea shop were whispering and talking, and a depressing atmosphere filled the air.
"Have you heard it? Last night, many officials were assassinated, two were killed and three were seriously injured, and countless servants were killed or injured!" A middle-aged man said to his companion next to him.
The tall and thin companion frowned and said, "It must be the assassin sent by Liu Xian! It's so despicable and shameless to actually use this method!"
The fat middle-aged man wearing silk and satin next to him lowered his voice: "I'm afraid that's not the case? I heard that some servants and servants escaped, and that they heard that some of the assassins said that they were sent by the king..."
The tall and thin man glared and shouted, "How is this possible? Don't say such words nonsense! How could the king send someone to kill his officials?"
The obese middle-aged man said, "You don't understand this. Are there few emperors who killed their subordinates in history?
I heard that it seemed that those officials said something bad to the king behind their backs, which made the king furious, so they sent these killers to take their lives!"
When the people present heard this, they were silent. After a while, a middle-aged man sighed and whispered: "Now that the storm is so turbulent that he has done such a ridiculous thing, he is really, really..."
He didn't continue to say it, but what he meant was nothing that anyone present didn't understand.
In the Palace of the Eastern Wu Royal Palace, Sun Quan sat in the study after washing up, enjoying breakfast while watching the various reports and official documents delivered early this morning.
At this moment, Zhou Yu quickly stepped in, clasped his fists and said, "King,..."
Sun Quan raised his head, saw Zhou Yu, and smiled and said, "It's Gongjin! Did Gongjin have breakfast?"
Zhou Yu said, "Thank you for your care, I have eaten it." He raised his head and looked at Sun Quan with a serious expression: "King, now there are many rumors that are not conducive to the King in the market,..."
Sun Quan frowned and sneered: "Are there still few rumors about me recently?
Liu Xian and the others used all kinds of means to spread rumors under my rule! But he wanted to shake my people's and the morale of the army through this point, that was a dream!"
Zhou Yu was very impressed when he saw Sun Quan's demeanor. However, when he thought of the current rumors, he could not help but take it seriously.
