Chapter 614 Sun Jian’s Choice
Gu Rubing smiled awkwardly and hurriedly covered up.
"Well, you don't understand. I'm going to help you screen. Those who are brave are dead. Isn't it better to leave this timid person?"
Zhang Fei nodded aside. He felt that what his elder brother said made sense and was simply the embodiment of wisdom.
"Brother is right!"
Everyone looked at Zhang Fei like a fool.
"Okay, okay, go."
Gu Rubing was puzzled along the way that his way of surrender should be fine, so how could such a big loss occur?
After pressing the person into the cell, the man spoke not long after.
After understanding, Gu Rubing realized that this person was one of the dead soldiers of the Kong family. The five people who died before were from the Kong family and the Yu family.
Obviously this is the cause of the aristocratic families in Kuaiji.
Gu Rubing did not expect that there would be so many troubles in Yangzhou.
What made him even more confused was how could this intelligence network of aristocratic families be so strong? They could even know what the three of them were talking about, and they could spread it at such a fast speed. Wouldn't the march and dispatch be exposed to those two big families?
Gu Rubing had already decided to send Zhao Yun to him as Wei Yan said and destroy the other two big families directly. Even if they were not done cleanly, it didn't matter, at least they did not dare to show up.
However, when Gu Rubing expressed his thoughts, Zhuge Liang directly denied it.
Even if Wei Yan can find out the head of the Kong Yu family and let Zhao Yun kill him, how effective it will be? The foundation of the person is in Kuaiji. At most, they will only lose one head of the family. For the aristocratic family, the head of the family is the least important. Just change it if you die.
Unless we can rush into Kuaiji, pull these families out of the roots, and swallow their industries, this is obviously impossible.
In the following days, Zhuge Liang began to search for people from the Kong family and the Yu family in the city according to Gu Rubing's orders.
Zhuge Liang took action himself, and in just three days, he found more than 20 eyeliners of the Kong family and Yu family.
In the past three days, Sun Shangxiang has been by Gu Rubing's side and refused to leave no matter what.
Gu Rubing was also a little embarrassed about this.
During this period, Gu Rubing watched Sun Shangxiang with his own eyes, from his initial lively appearance to his current words, no matter who saw it, he would not feel good.
Looking at Sun Shangxiang in front of him, without saying a word, Gu Rubing finally put down the pen in his hand.
"You really don't want to leave?"
Sun Shangxiang still didn't say anything, just nodded.
Gu Rubing didn't say anything else.
The next morning, Zhuge Liang rushed over and Cao Cao's messenger arrived.
Soon Zhuge Liang took out a letter.
Gu Rubing opened the letter and saw that Cao Cao was urging him to return Sun Shangxiang to Sun Jian.
After sending the messenger, Gu Rubing turned his head and saw Sun Shangxiang walking out.
"Do I go?"
Gu Rubing nodded, and was about to say something, but found that Sun Shangxiang had turned around and left.
"Lord, Liang has a word, don't know if he should say it?"
"Prime Minister, who did you learn this problem from? Just say whatever you want."
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, and the feather fan in his hand gently incited.
"Lord, everyone now knows that you and Cao Cao and Sun Jian use the agreement reached by Sun Shangxiang."
"I xx..."
Gu Rubing didn't expect that Zhuge Liang would say such words. The soldiers in his hands were desperately snatched by Ba County. Sun Shangxiang was just Cao Cao wanted a step. When did he exchange women for peace? Isn't that a beast?
Zhuge Liang found that Gu Rubing was too dirty and hurriedly waved his hand to stop him.
"Lord, what I am talking about is not my thoughts, but the people's thoughts."
Gu Rubing suddenly became quiet when he heard this.
The Kong family and the Yu family, with bad intentions, released the news this time just to force themselves to make a choice. As long as they send Sun Shangxiang out, they may be considered a waste of their reputation, but if they don't send it out, Cao Cao will definitely If you won’t give up, you won’t even have the last steps. Wouldn’t you announce that you were defeated?
"What do you mean by Prime Minister?"
"Sun Shangxiang can't be given away!"
After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he stared at Gu Rubing, wanting to see Gu Rubing's reaction.
Sure enough, Gu Rubing's reaction relaxed without leaving any trace, and then deliberately pretended to be embarrassed.
"Prime Minister, what do you mean? If this person is not sent out, it will be difficult for us to explain to Cao Cao!"
Zhuge Liang smiled, and then talked about his plan in Gu Rubing's ear.
"The Prime Minister's method is very good! It's really a dog!"
"Um?"
After Sun Shangxiang prepared, he went straight to the carriage at the door.
Gu Rubing took Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and Zhang Fei and the other two, and the convoy, and rushed directly to Nanhai County, Jiaozhou, which is also where Sun Jian is currently stationed.
Nanhai County is the only connection point between Jiaozhou and Kuaiji County in Yangzhou. Sun Jian understood that once the war begins, Nanhai County will definitely be the first place to be attacked, so Sun Jian placed the main force in Nanhai County.
As soon as Gu Rubing entered Nanhai County, he saw Zhou Yu, Gan Ning and others staring at him.
"Are you a few unsatisfied? If you have any dissatisfaction, you can say it directly, of course I may not necessarily change it."
Zhou Yu sneered and brought everyone to Gu Rubing.
"King Lie, my lord is waiting for you."
After saying that, Zhou Yu also glanced at Zhao Yun and others behind Gu Rubing.
Under Zhou Yu's leadership, Gu Rubing came directly to Sun Jian.
"You are here, King Lie."
"Cao Cao urged me to come and return it to others. I can't do it if I don't come."
After Sun Jian brought Gu Rubing into the house, he arranged a seat for Gu Rubing.
"King Lie, don't know where my daughter is?"
"Just on the carriage outside, I have brought Sun Zhoumu here. As for what you plan to do in the future, I won't care. But I still want to advise you that sometimes, this person must take sides, and You have to make a good choice! Otherwise, this kick might be a cliff.”
Sun Jian looked at Gu Rubing and was immediately embarrassed. How could he not understand Gu Rubing's meaning? But he and Cao Cao are in the same camp, so how could he stand on Liu Bei's side? But now he has something to ask for Liu Bei and among the people. Many people have already had opinions about them. In the eyes of the people, they are the governor of Yangzhou and have no right to occupy Jiaozhou.
Even some people promoted from Yangzhou were a little dissatisfied with themselves.
So Sun Jian urgently needed this title of Jiaozhou Governor.
"I don't know what King Lie planned to let me do?"
"I don't know this. Sun Zhoumu should understand what to do."
After Gu Rubing finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave, but when he reached the door, Gu Rubing suddenly stopped.
"Mr. Sunzhou, if you do it to satisfy me, you will soon see the results you want."
After saying that, Gu Rubing walked outside and got on the carriage.
Sun Shangxiang was in the carriage and watched Gu Rubing come in with her eyes slightly red.
"Do you really want to send me away?"
"I just sent you back, whether to go or stay, and you make your own decision, your father should not stop you. As for Cao Cao's side, you don't need to consider it."
After leaving this sentence, Gu Rubing turned around and left.
A few days after returning to Guiyang County, Gu Rubing received news that when Cao Cao sent someone to Sun Jian to take Sun Shangxiang away, he was rejected by Sun Jian.
Cao Cao immediately sent a messenger to Gu Rubing's side, wanting an explanation.
But Gu Rubing's answer was that he had sent the person to Sun Jian's side, and he didn't know the rest.
Yizhou Chengdu.
Cao Cao looked at Gu Rubing's reply in his hand and slapped the wine glass on the table.
"Liu Bei is too bullying. I have given Ba County. What else do you want me to do? Now I don't even leave anyone behind."
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Xun Yu, who was standing beside him, felt Cao Cao's anger and stood aside, suddenly hesitating.
Xun You looked at Xun Yu, kept signaling Xun Yu with his eyes, and stepped forward to stop Cao Cao.
But Xun Yu seemed to have not seen it.
After Cao Cao vented for a while, Xun Yu suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Tell me, what should I do?"
"Lord, if Sun Jian doesn't give it to others, we have no choice. If anyone asks about it, they will say that Sun Shangxiang doesn't want to leave home and wants to stay in Sun Jian for a longer time."
When Cao Cao heard this, he could only nod. At least he could hear this self-deception.
But Cao Cao and his team had just released the news for a few days, and they received another news. Sun Jian actually sent Sun Shangxiang back to Liu Bei.
This behavior undoubtedly slapped Cao Cao in the face.
Cao Cao finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Gu Rubing looked at Sun Shangxiang who was back and smiled helplessly.
Sun Jian finally chose himself in this matter. From this we can see how important the title of Jiaozhou Guard is to Sun Jian, and he can even back-slay his allies.
Gu Rubing was too lazy to arrange anything for Sun Shangxiang. His government office was almost as familiar as Sun Shangxiang.
Since Sun Jian has already taken the team, Gu Rubing is not willing to do anything to others. There is no war on the front line now. Gu Rubing decided to return to Sili to meet Liu Xie and deal with Sun Jian’s affairs.
This time, Gu Rubing still traveled lightly and only Zhao Yun was with him.
The two of them were rushing very fast, two days later.
Gu Rubing wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked into the distance.
"Zilong, where are we now?"
Zhao Yun took out the map and looked at it, and said directly: "Lord, we have reached the range of Xudu now. At our speed, we should be able to reach the city in one day at most."
Gu Rubing nodded and dismounted and prepared to take a rest.
The two were about to sit for a while when a noisy sound came from a distance.
"Go away, what are you doing?"
"Go away quickly!"
There will also be whipping sounds from time to time.
Gu Rubing frowned slightly. How could this happen under his own governance?
Soon Gu Rubing took Zhao Yun and arrived at the place where the sound came out.
I saw a group of bandits helping the people one by one, thinking about a place to walk, and several of them were still whipping the people with the whip in their hands.
"A bunch of beasts!"
Gu Rubing didn't expect that there were bandits here. He had already managed it once before, but he didn't expect it to appear again.
"Do it!"
As Gu Rubing finished speaking, Zhao Yun rushed out directly.
After seeing Zhao Yun, the bandits all stopped.
"Who are you? Get out of the way and be careful that I will arrest you too."
"Let people go!"
Zhao Yun's tone was cold and murderous intent appeared on his body.
"If you say let go, let go, let go. If you think you are a thing, since you are asked to leave and you don't leave, don't blame us."
After saying that, a bandit took a knife and walked over to Zhao Yun.
"Boy, you are not lucky and you have to stop us, so you can accompany us!"
However, just after the bandit said this, Zhao Yun flashed a silver spear in his hand.
The bandit's body was directly penetrated by Zhao Yun.
Seeing this, the other bandits drew out their weapons and besieged Zhao Yun.
However, these people, in terms of strength, are not even second-rate generals, so how could they be Zhao Yun's opponent?
With just one move, Zhao Yun killed all the bandits.
Gu Rubing personally untied the rope on the villagers.
"Thank you, the two young masters, for saving us, but you should run away quickly. This group of people belong to Heiyun Village, and that group of bandits are all a group of murderers without blinking. If you kill their people, will they not be able to do so? I will let you go."
An old man said as he pushed them aside.
Gu Rubing smiled, pulled the old man to the stone beside him, and distributed the food they carried with him to everyone present.
"Old man, I heard that King Lie has rectified all the bandits here? Why are there still bandits coming out to rob?"
"Yes, King Lie did rectify and even seemed to have incorporated some bandits. During that period, our place was very safe. Some people were even afraid of rushing to the night, and some bandits came out in person to shine on the road with torches for the people, but the good times In less than a month, the bandits disappeared."
A brave villager went up the mountain to search, but only saw that the entire village was empty and no one saw it.
"All ran away?"
Gu Rubing couldn't imagine how those people would run away? What's wrong with having fun with yourself?
"At first we thought we all ran away, but soon, a new group of bandits came. According to what they said, the bandits were killed, and the bodies were buried in the back mountain. We also asked someone to see them. After all, they were dead. These bandits committed all kinds of evil and arrested many people. They didn’t know what to do. They also went to the village to steal a lot of food and killed people. "
"Huh? Do you care about the government office?"
"Public office? They want to manage it, how do they manage it? The village is far away from the Public office. It will be too late to get the news. Everyone said that King Lie is directing us ordinary people. Humph, I think King Lie is just acting. What's the matter? Any officials care about the lives and deaths of our people?” (End of this chapter)
