Chapter 1036 Zhou Yu’s jokes never go out of style
Zhou Yu fell ill.
To be more precise, Zhou Yu is likely to become ill.
People with connections quickly spread the news that Zhou Yu was critically ill, and for a while the entire Jiangdong started a very heated discussion on the matter.
The marriage matter has been settled, and judging from the official announcement, it seems that all the charges have been placed on Zhou Yu's head.
Although...even though there was a line of small letters at the bottom of the notice that said Zhou Yu had not yet been completely convicted, it was obvious that not many people would pay attention to this ambiguous statement.
In their view, it was quite reasonable for Zhou Yu to defraud the bride because of her small belly.
After all, a man who can force a married wife away is probably not a good person.
Overnight, the Qiao family disappeared from the land of Jiangdong, but no one would blame Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. They would only think that it was because Zhou Yu, Sun Quan and others did too much -
Da Qiao is Sun Quan’s sister-in-law, and she is also the widow of the late monarch Sun Ce. It’s enough that Zhou Yu didn’t protect Sun Ce’s widow, but he actually had the idea of marrying Da Qiao to Liu Bei in a deceitful way.
Judging from the longing of the people of Jiangdong for Sun Ce, no matter who dares to harm Sun Ce and Sun Ce's family, that person will no longer be able to live in Jiangdong.
Public opinion began to ferment on the day Zhou Yu was arrested, and within one day there was already a fairly unified understanding.
To sum up, it is that Zhou Yu's crime cannot be punished and his death is not a pity.
Poor Zhou Yu himself was lying in prison unable to defend himself. After Sun Quan came back that night and told him some unfortunate news, Zhou Yu was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot. I heard that it was only after Sun Quan begged in every possible way that the court agreed to put him there.
Zhou Yu was transferred from prison to a medical center for treatment.
But...it's now this time, and it seems that everything is already too late.
——
Jianye City continued as usual, without any noteworthy changes due to Zhou Yu's critical illness.
On the streets, people were coming and going, and restaurants and teahouses were bustling with people.
The only difference that can be said is that the content of people's chats has changed from speculating on the conspiracy behind the marriage to criticizing Zhou Yu and exposing Zhou Yu's dark history.
"I have known for a long time that this boy Zhou Yu is a man with different appearances. Judging from the incident when he forced people to kneel down and apologize because a passerby accidentally stepped on him on the street, there is no room for sand in his eyes.
His temper will cause problems sooner or later."
"Isn't that right! Haven't you heard that Xiao Qiao, who married into the Zhou family, said something that Zhou Yu didn't like to hear? Since then, she has been hated by Zhou Yu.
Everyone’s status is much higher than Xiao Qiao’s.”
Someone in the restaurant gossiped about this, and as expected, within a few words the gossip meeting turned into a critical meeting of Zhou Yu.
I don't know where they heard the news from. It's hard to tell the truth from the lies, but everyone is still willing to listen to it.
When they heard someone talk about the injustice Xiao Qiao suffered at the Zhou family, everyone shook their heads and smacked their lips with regret.
"Miss Xiao Qiao is really pitiful..."
"Yes, yes, we were lucky enough to meet her when she came from Lujiang to Jiangdong. Such a virtuous woman was so abused by Zhou Yu. It's really... ugh..."
"To say it's a waste, that's not necessarily true - don't you know that Xiao Qiao has never given birth to a child to Zhou Yu for so many years after marrying into the Zhou family... What's the reason?"
"Ah? Are you kidding me... I remember that Zhou Yu clearly had two sons, one named Zhou Xun, and the other named Zhou... What is Zhou?"
"Zhou Yin, right?"
"Ah, yes, yes! Zhou Yin, Zhou Yin! The elder Zhou Xun should be ten years old this year, and the younger one is seven or eight years old, right?"
As soon as they heard the breaking news, everyone stretched out their ears. Even so, many people still held a skeptical attitude. Once there was a rebuttal, many people supported this side.
.
It's just... If Brother Lao knows his words without any basis, how can he be so successful in such gossip on the streets?
A thin man with a crooked melon and cracked dates all his life, and a sparse goatee that looked as if it would fall off if the wind blew, said with a cold snort:
"Hmph... You have all been deceived by this boy Zhou Yu - the two children Zhou Xun and Zhou Yin are the children of relatives that Zhou Yu brought from his hometown in Lujiang in order to carry on the family line."
Seeing that everyone was shocked by his revelation, the thin man continued with great dignity:
"As for why Xiao Qiao didn't give birth to a child for Zhou Yu, the reason is... Zhou Yu hasn't touched Xiao Qiao for so many years!"
"Ah? This... how is this possible? With a beauty like Xiao Qiao by his side, Zhou Yu has never even touched her? This... this is impossible, right?"
With a slightly impatient curve at the corner of his mouth, the thin man walked to the middle of the tavern, stepped on a bench with one leg, blew his beard, and said in an extremely confident tone:
"Is there anything impossible! Zhou Yu is a frequent visitor to Jinfeng Tower and Manchun Courtyard. You only need to ask around to find out, Zhou Yu..."
At this point, the goatee laughed:
"Zhou Yu can't do it, hahahaha..."
"Hahahahaha...and this thing hahahaha, I really haven't heard of it!"
"It's true, it's true! We are also frequent visitors to the Jinfeng Building. We have long heard that Zhou Yu is a famous fast crossbow. If the sisters in the building hadn't kept him a secret, it would have been very difficult for this kind of thing to spread out.
It’s so embarrassing!”
"Hahahahaha! A fast crossbow hahahaha..."
Regardless of the truth, everyone was immersed in Zhou Yu's jokes that never go out of style, and the atmosphere inside and outside the venue was full of joy.
And the same thing happens all the time in all parts of Jiangdong throughout the day.
Zhou Yu's reputation...is completely ruined.
——
Also in Jianye City, in a remote medical clinic, the lights were dim. If you didn't go out, you wouldn't know it was still noon.
The dim light shines on the mottled walls, and the hospital is filled with the smell of corruption.
I am afraid that if it were not for the relatively wealthy Jianye people who were short of money, no one would come here for medical treatment.
After all, even the old doctor in the medical clinic is a consumptive ghost. It would not be strange at all if the doctor leaves before the patient even if the patient comes to see him.
But even so... In the medical center at this moment, there were several people who could not be described as poor in clothing, waiting anxiously.
Because in this dilapidated medical clinic, there is a contradictory character who was once famous all over the world, but now he is criticized by everyone.
"Cough cough cough cough..."
"Vomit... cough cough cough... the patient is awake... come in and take a look... but... cough cough cough... I suggest you make preparations for the funeral. This disease... unless the miracle doctor Hua Tuo comes to treat it, otherwise... cough cough cough...
"
"vomit!"
The old man walked out of the back room tremblingly, looking like he was about to die. He didn't say a few words, but it always made people feel like he was about to cough up his lungs.
But... Sun Quan, Lu Su and others no longer care about this.
"Gongjin! Gongjin! You wake up!"
Taking two or three steps at a time, a group of people hurriedly squeezed into the small back room.
On the bed, the bloodless Zhou Yu was looking at the broken beams with empty eyes. There was no trace of his former glory.
