Chapter 773: One wrong step and heartbreak(1/3)
Zhou Li's answer made the light of hope in Lu Dai's eyes gradually dissipate.
Lu Dai would not suspect Zhou Li of cheating on him, and Zhou Li's answer was also consistent with Sun Quan's character.
But before, Lu Dai would inevitably have some hope - hoping that Sun Quan would be more tolerant.
Lu Dai's eyes were fixed on Zhou Li in front of him, with a worried look on his face. He knew that Zhou Li might be the only one who could help him at the moment.
"Ziyu."
Lu Dai first changed his name to a familiar one.
"Chaisang is our army's retreat, and Dai's life is at stake. How can Dai sit back and watch Chaisang be lost?"
From Zhou Li's words just now, Lu Dai thought that Zhou Li was doubting his loyalty.
In order to prevent Zhou Li from further misunderstanding, Lu Dai directly told Zhou Li another reason why he must save Chai Sang.
You can doubt my loyalty to His Majesty, but you can never doubt that I will not cherish my own life.
After explaining the reason, Lu Dai looked at Zhou Li, hoping to see a look of approval on Zhou Li's face.
But Zhou Li has been meditating and doesn't know what he is thinking.
"What is Ziyu thinking about?"
Lu Dai asked puzzledly.
Lu Dai's words awakened Zhou Li from his deep thoughts.
Zhou Li took a deep look at Lu Dai and replied slowly:
"I'm thinking about Han Zong in Yong'an City."
Just after hearing what Zhou Li said, Lu Dai was still a little confused.
Why did Zhou Li suddenly mention Han Zong?
But as soon as she changed her mind, Lu Dai couldn't help but feel depressed.
Good guy, there is something in Zhou Li's words. He is hinting that he may have the same idea as Han Zong.
Indeed, no one would doubt that Lu Dai did not cherish his own life.
However, given the current situation, if you cherish your own life, do you have to rescue Chai Sang?
If you can learn Korean Zong...
Not only can your life be saved, but your prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life may also be guaranteed.
Zhou Li's words made Lu Dai angry and helpless at the same time.
Lu Dai did not dare to explain any more, for fear that the description would get darker and darker.
After seeing Lu Dai's anxious yet depressed expression, Zhou Li rolled his eyes, sighed and said:
"Lü Gong, you and I are related by marriage, how can I not trust your loyalty?"
Zhou Li's wife, Zhang, was of the same race as Lu Zheng's wife.
"But as an envoy, I have just been in front of all the generals. I can't talk about personal affairs."
Zhou Li's words made Lu Dai nod subconsciously.
Then Lu Dai heard Zhou Li continue to say:
"And Lu Gong, think about it, I would have misunderstood you outside Yong'an City, let alone His Majesty who is far away in Jianye City?
In recent years, His Majesty has become more and more jealous. How many ministers have been reprimanded because of His Majesty's suspicion?
You and I have witnessed these things with our own eyes.
What you care about should not be what I think, but what His Majesty will think!"
In private, Zhou Li was not as aggressive as he was in front of the generals just now.
Zhou Li's words made Lu Dai's face become even more ugly.
What Zhou Li said was exactly what he was worried about.
"The reason why Dai has been delaying sending troops is because he is worried that Mi Yang has some backup plans.
In order to prevent being surrounded and calling for reinforcements, even if Dai wanted to send troops, he should do so slowly rather than hastily.
At least it must arrive at the same time as Zi Heng's reinforcements are the best strategy."
Seeing that Lu Dai could think of "it's better to go slow than to rush" even if he didn't warn him, Zhou Li had a smile on his face, but he was filled with fear in his heart.
Don't worry, where did I get my wealth?
Blocking someone's wealth is like killing your parents!
"Lv Gong!
You have always known soldiers, so your concerns cannot be said to be wrong.
But you know soldiers, does your Majesty know that?"
Zhou Li asked a question with a well-known answer.
"In His Majesty's eyes, what he wants is very simple. He wants Chai Sang Wuyou, and he wants to see a loyal and good general.
As for other things, they were not at all on his mind.
If there are still good generals in Jianye City, they may still give advice to His Majesty.
But how many good generals of Wu are currently building Ye City?
If it were Mr. Zhang in the past..."
Mentioning Zhang Zhao, Zhou Li sighed subconsciously.
When Zhang Zhao was in court, as the leader of Huaisi officials, he was indeed Lu Dai's support in the court.
But now in Lu Dai's memory, Zhang Zhao and Sun Quan are still in a state of rupture.
Zhou Li sighed when he mentioned Zhang Zhao, but he had another purpose.
As the saying goes, the fox will be sad when the rabbit dies.
Because your political leader Zhang Zhao offended Sun Quan, he was directly banned from the palace by Sun Quan.
If you disobey Sun Quan again, will your fate be better than Zhang Zhao's?
Zhou Li's verbal hints are useful.
After thinking about Zhang Zhao's fate, Lu Dai couldn't help but shudder.
Although the river breeze in winter is cold, it is not as chilling as Sun Quan's treatment of his old ministers.
Under Zhou Li's temptation step by step, Lu Dai fell into boundless panic.
If there was no precedent, no matter what Zhou Li said, Lu Dai would never feel this way.
But there are too many precedents that Lu Dai can refer to.
After thinking for a long time, Lu Dai seemed to have made an important decision.
Lu Dai bowed deeply to Zhou Li and asked:
"Dai wants to write a letter to His Majesty, and I hope Ziyu can deliver it on his behalf."
Lu Dai knew that the only one who could help him now was Zhou Li, probably because Zhou Li was Sun Quan's envoy.
It would be better if Zhou Li had not arrived in Yong'an, but if Zhou Li had already arrived in Yong'an and he had delivered the memorial to Sun Quan privately, he would undoubtedly be defying Sun Quan's authority.
It is only reasonable and reasonable to ask Zhou Li to forward the memorial on his behalf.
After hearing Lu Dai's request, Zhou Li agreed after thinking about it for a while.
Lu Dai couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Zhou Li was willing to help.
"Ziyu is really a minister of the country!"
Lu Dai and Zhou Li communicated privately for a long time.
Although all the generals were curious about what they were talking about, they could only guess silently in their hearts.
When Lu Dai and Zhou Li returned to the generals, the generals thought that Lu Dai would issue an order to assemble the army and prepare for war.
Unexpectedly, Lu Dai said to the generals:
"The envoy has come from afar. After the envoy has a good rest, we will discuss the strategy of entering the army together."
Lu Dai's words caused quite a commotion among the generals of Soochow.
The generals of Soochow thought that Zhou Li's words just now were so sharp that Lu Dai would not dare to delay any longer.
result...
The generals couldn't help but look at Zhou Li, who looked gloomy at this time, thinking that he had a very unpleasant conversation with Lu Dai in private just now.

Looking at Zhou Li's leaving figure, many Wu generals had a vague premonition in their hearts.
