At the same time, Yuzhang County.

At this time, Lu Su had already arrived in Yuzhang County and headed straight to the prefect's mansion.

"Lord Governor?"

When Taishi Ci saw Lu Su, he was surprised and quickly ordered someone to pour tea.

Lu Su waved his hand and said:

"General Ziyi, no need."

"I'm here this time because I want to ask you and General Gongji something."

Taishi Ci patted his head and said with a smile:

"Master Governor, isn't this a joke?"

"I'm fine with that, but General Gongji is currently fighting with Shanyue with his troops."

"The fighting is getting more and more fierce now. Those Sanyue are almost desperate for their lives, and they are launching suicide attacks on us."

"I can't stand the performance anymore. I'm about to lead troops to help."

"Master Governor, why don't you wait until we finish defeating Shanyue?"

How could Taishi Ci not know why Lu Su came here this time?

Then you must run if you can!

Lu Su seemed honest and honest, but Shi Ci knew very well that this man had a lot of eyes.

What if he discovered any clues?

Taishi Ci never expected that Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, who had always been at odds with the army, could actually move the giant Buddha of Lu Su here.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Taishi Ci would never have believed that Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong would actually have contact with Lu Su.

Lu Su was speechless for a moment and said hurriedly:

"General Ziyi, General Ziyi, please calm down!"

"This battle can take a break before starting again, but I'm here this time to talk to you two about something important!"

At this time, no matter what Tai Shici said, he could no longer find excuses to refuse, so he had to sit down and said calmly:

"Since the Governor said it is an important matter, you must listen to it."

"Please tell me, Lord Governor."

Lu Su frowned and said:

"It's about Zhang Cheng being killed by Shan Yue."

"Zhang Zhao was furious and went to the court to find various officials, trying to get them to find out the truth about the matter."

"No, just find me here and ask me to investigate. I just want to see how the battle in Shanyue is going so that I can report to Marquis Wu."

Hearing this, Taishi Ci's face suddenly turned ugly:

"What do you mean, Lord Governor, that Gongji and I killed Zhang Cheng?"

Lu Su quickly waved his hand and said:

"No, no, no, I never meant that."

"I have great faith in the two generals, and Shanyue killed more than one Zhang Cheng."

"In fact, many other officials were unwilling to let me investigate."

"But after visiting these few days, I found that the activities in Shanyue are getting more and more rampant."

"Now that 50,000 Soochow soldiers are fighting desperately on the front line, the Shanyue people actually come to Yuzhang to burn, kill and loot."

"It can be seen that there is no suspense about this matter at all."

"There's just one thing I'm curious about..."

Taishi Ci did not let down his guard at all and said:

"Please tell me, Lord Governor."

"This kind of thing is no joke. We are both generals. How can we attack the soldiers under our command?"

"If others hear it, how can we and I lead the army in the future?"

Taishi Ci did not try his best to draw a clear line, but pretended to be angry, hoping to fool Lu Su.

Lu Su is a typical person who doesn't like to cause trouble.

If it were Gong Jin, he would probably get to the bottom of it, but Lu Su would not.

Just give him a reasonable answer and a reasonable attitude.

As long as Lu Su's investigation yields no results, the matter may be dropped.

Moreover, after what Lu Su said, Taishi Ci finally understood the current situation in the court.

It was obvious that Sun Quan had already started to attack the nobles. Otherwise, how could Zhang Zhao go around asking for help instead of directly sending people to question him.

With the power of the Zhang family, isn't it easy to find an outlet?

Lu Su was silent for a moment and said:

"That's all, I don't have any worries anymore."

"At first I thought this matter was suspicious, but after a few days of investigation, I have a general understanding."

"I also ask the two generals to seek justice for the people of Yuzhang. I will take my leave now."

Taishi Ci breathed a sigh of relief:

"Then I won't send you off, General. The Governor will go slowly."

"Now that the front line is tight, I hope the Governor will send a message to Wu Hou."

"I hope Marquis Wu will send more troops to help. Besides, food and grass are also extremely scarce."

"For some reason, the Shanyue people are like crazy. Instead of defending, they come out to attack."

"Gongji is in terrible pain right now, and I hope the governor can help me. I am begging the governor on behalf of the people of Yuzhang."

After saying that, Taishi Ci quickly saluted.

Seeing this, Lu Su hurriedly waved his hand and said:

"The general can't do it!"

"I have also seen the situation in front of me. I will tell Wu Hou truthfully."

"It's just that now Wujundu only has city defense troops guarding the city. General, you also know this."

"Whether Marquis Wu will dispatch troops or horses, I can't give you a guarantee on this matter. I can only say that I will do my best."

Taishi Ci cupped his hands and said:

"Then there will be Governor Lao."

After saying that, Lu Su left in a hurry.

Taishi Ci breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the chair, and drank the wine in front of him.

After a long time, after confirming that Lu Su had left, the young general next to him said:

"The general is really good at acting! I think Na Lu Su believed it!"

Taishi Ci frowned, shook his head and said:

"I think it's not that simple."

"Even if Lu Su believes it, Zhang Zhao will never give up."

"In other words, even if I really didn't do this, he would definitely find a reason to come to us to vent."

The young general suddenly said in confusion:

"Why? Shouldn't we put all our hatred on the Shanyue people?"

Taishi Ci shook his head heavily and said:

"No, they are in the court, how can they not be clear in their hearts?"

"Today's Shanyue will not be defeated at all for a while, because Wu Hou's mind is not on Shanyue at all."

"If you want to find an outlet, Ling Tong and I are probably the most suitable ones."

The young general immediately frowned and said:

"Then what should we do next?"

"Do you want me to go find Mr. Bai and inform him about this?"

Taishi Ci shook his head and said:

"No, absolutely not!"

"There is no need to panic about this matter. As long as Mr. Bai can take over Shan Yue's lair and control Shan Yue's territory, even if Zhang Zhao wants to seek revenge from me, it will not matter at all."

"The capabilities of the Shanyue people are far inferior to those of our sergeants. As long as we have control of Shanyue's resources, we can use them as a base to start a war with Sun Quan."

"When the time comes, who cares about his bullshit Zhang family!"

After saying that, Taishi Ci placed the wine glass in his hand heavily on the table, making a loud noise.

Zhang Zhao wants to find a scapegoat to relieve his hatred? Don't look anywhere to see who you're looking for!
