The situation has completely returned to how it was before.
What did it look like initially?
The streets were overcrowded and noisy. Although it was not festive, the atmosphere finally became lively.
Hearing the noise coming from behind, and the voices of suspicion and speculation that could be heard from time to time... Even Zhou Yu was extremely anxious now.
He now wants to yell:
"Who the hell is calling the people here again!"
But when he thought about it, he realized that the situation had developed to the current level. One coincidence after another made him unable to rule out the possibility that the man named Lu Qinghou or Zhantang was peeping at everything in the crowd.
sex.
"Sure enough, he was still calculated! Why...why did it become like this? Who is this Lu Qinghou?"
A deep feeling of powerlessness emerged from the bottom of his heart, which made Zhou Yu suddenly recall some experiences that he didn't want to remember.
At that time...when I faced him, I was also so powerless and pitiful, right?
Distracted thoughts entered Zhou Yu's mind, which made Zhou Yu even more confused.
"It can't really be him, can it?" - Once this thought came up, no matter what details Zhou Yu thought about, he felt that everything could be connected.
Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang, after experiencing the "disaster" in Chibi, most of them have now returned to their original state, especially Zhuge Liang - in Liu Bei's army, Zhuge Liang's status is increasingly moving towards the status of the second person.
, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other senior brothers who had a famous friendship with Liu Bei have also been suppressed by Zhuge Liang.
But... if they were really asked to recall that person, they would still show their true colors, right?
"Hey...what happened?"
"Why don't you leave when the wedding is already underway?"
"Hey! Then... aren't those Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao? They... why are they here?"
"Hey...please keep your voice down! Didn't you see that everyone in the pavilion pulled out their knives?"
The people were talking a lot. They just heard some people saying that the marriage could not be completed. People are gossips. If everything in this world really goes smoothly, how can the people have the capital to gossip on weekdays?
Just out of curiosity, more and more people gathered on the street.
As for if there are some people wearing ordinary clothes mixed in, it would be difficult to distinguish them, right?
"Hey! You really don't know what happened?"
"Huh? What's going on? Can you tell me what you know?"
When there are more people, there will be a mixed bag of good and bad people. Of course, there will be some who are uninformed and some who are "informed".
Let’s not talk about the truth or falsehood for the time being. The principle of old friends is that even if you don’t know, you still have to know——
"Harm! Isn't it just what happened two days ago!"
"I heard that the Sun family's youngest daughter had already run away - it was because Guota let her go that he was imprisoned by Sun Quan, the unscrupulous son -"
"Oh! So that's what happened! Lin'an Street, I live very close! At that time, our neighbors could clearly hear Guotai's voice scolding Sun Quan!"
"Yes, yes, but guess what? Sun Quan was also afraid that the matter would be exposed. Yesterday, he gave us a hush-hush order from door to door. Hey, there were many military masters outside the door at that time, which scared us.
"
"Huh? That's not all I've heard - look at the big Qiao at the head of the house, it means that the person who just visited Uncle Liu Huang was none other than her!"
"Ah? Is there still such a thing?"
"Don't you know that it was said before that the Governor wanted to marry off Da Qiao? After all, you think, after the monarch has been away for so many years, Da Qiao has been a widow since he married into the Sun family. One is a widow.
One is Guotai’s own daughter, there’s no need to say which one to marry!”
"So...so after Sun Shangxiang ran away, the Grand Governor and Sun Quan pretended to marry Sun Shangxiang, but actually wanted to replace him with Da Qiao?"
"Hey! Stop... stop talking! The officers and soldiers are coming! The officers and soldiers are coming!"
Zhou Yu was really angry. When the common people behind his back kept spreading certain rumors that he considered "baseless", he hurriedly asked Pan Zhang, who had retreated, to find officers and soldiers to maintain order.
He originally wanted to drive people away, but Liu Bei gave him a "concerned" look, which meant:
"If you dare, I will start a war!"
In the end, Zhou Yu could only use a small number of people to find out the bad guys who spread rumors among the crowd, instead of simply driving them away.
Liu Bei's spirit of not caring about anything, as long as Sun Quan and Zhou Yu dared to make a move, he would dare to fight against him. To a certain extent, it really made Zhou Yu think that Liu Bei was on the same side as Lu Qinghou.
——
After Lu Su’s proposal, the situation at the venue was as follows:
Sun Quan still stayed together with the uninformed ministers. He was not as bold as the common people, but the officials were also human beings and would be curious about the truth. However, Zhang Zhao, Gu Shao and others secretly played the role of Brother Dong.
Characters - Anyway, when these two people talk, their logic is clear and their sentences are concise, which always gives people the feeling that they are extremely experienced.
But no matter how you say it, people's hearts are difficult to control. Once suspicion arises, it will be as unstoppable as the tide. In just a short while, the atmosphere of public opinion among officials will be extremely close to the atmosphere of discussion among the people outside the court.
On Liu Bei's side, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan retreated to Liu Bei's side, but they were closer to Da Qiao than Sun Quan's side. It seemed that under Liu Bei's instructions, they were determined to let Da Qiao explain everything.
The last group of people stood not far from the door. Lu Su panicked and comforted Zhou Tai who was sitting on the ground. Pan Zhang scratched his head anxiously. Zhou Yu folded his arms and stood in front of everyone like a door god, seemingly shocked.
In fact, everyone can see that he is haggard, and he is pretending to be calm.
"Zhou Tai! Explain clearly to me what exactly you discovered..."
Zhou Yu glanced at him and took advantage of this fleeting gap to keep asking Zhou Tai.
As a result, Zhou Tai burst into tears, and his huge face wrinkled up under the grievance, which was as ugly as it could be.
Fortunately, it seems that because of Zhou Yu's reprimand, Zhou Tai finally organized his language a little and told Zhou Yu what he saw and heard.
"Grand...Grand Governor...it's not that I don't want to say it...it's that I really didn't know him at the time!"
Zhou Tai, who was crying, hugged Zhou Yu's thigh. Zhou Yu was so disgusted that he couldn't get rid of him, so he could only listen to Zhou Tai's words in such a weird posture.
"Do you recognize him or not? You mean Zhao Zilong? I remember that you were at the battlefield in Hefei, and it seems that you have never met Zhao Yun. Is this what you are talking about?"
"Yeah!"
Zhou Tai nodded like a fool, the first thing he wanted to say was this.
Then…
"Just nod your head and continue talking. What next?"
Zhou Yu was so anxious that he slapped Zhou Tai on the head and asked angrily.
"Lin Lishan...Lin Lishan, Governor, I told you...at that time, there were not only a few thieves in Shanyue's team, but also a man and a woman who followed Lu Qinghou——"
"Huh? I think you said that...you said that the man and the woman were highly skilled in martial arts and came out from behind you, and you were finally defeated..."
Zhou Yu murmured to himself, recalling impatiently.
Zhou Tai pointed tremblingly at Zhao Yun in the distance and cried out:
"Grand Governor... I really didn't lie to you... I really didn't recognize him at that time..."
Zhou Yu was stunned at this moment, and his brain seemed to have really stopped thinking.
——Zhao Yun is the man following Lu Qinghou? Are you kidding?
