Jingzhou, in Xiangyang City, in front of the Kuai family's mansion, Xu Shu looked at the messy gate smashed by vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, especially the red paint splashed on the plaque, and frowned slightly.

"Governor Yang, the Kuai family is a meritorious minister to Dayan, even if there are some unfortunate fates, then it can be taught" Xu Shu said solemnly, he knew very well that Yang Yi was born in the military department, and his loyalty to the king had reached the point of madness, and the Kuai family was impacted, far from what Yuan Xi knew in Yecheng, and he had already been demoted from the first family in Jingzhou to a person who did nothing evil, and the Cai family was okay, because of Huang Zhong's brother-in-law, so that ordinary people did not dare to move.

"The lower official knows his mistake, and he will personally send someone to repair it later" Yang Yi immediately replied, he didn't dare to be disrespectful to Xu Shu, that was a sentence, it was possible for the king to withdraw his existence, not to mention that his former Shangguan was Pang Tong, and Pang Tong and Xu Shu could be friends in the same door.

"Go knock on the door," Xu Shu commanded.

"No!"

A soldier knocked lightly on the door, and after waiting for a while, the door opened gently, only to see a timid servant, who asked a little uneasily, "What is the matter?" ”

"The deputy of the Privy Council, the general of the Wu Army, Xu Shu, has been ordered by the king to come and see the Hou Ye," the soldier said.

After the servant was stunned for a moment, he said with some unease: "Then you wait a minute"

Immediately, the door was closed again, and the soldier looked back at Xu Shu in some surprise, and the Kuai family was scared like this.

Xu Shu shook his head and sighed, who would have thought that after the New Year, in less than five months, the once brilliant and proud major scholars have become like this, this incident also made him understand that the terrible control of public opinion, the propaganda department recently formed by the king, which is personally controlled by the right minister Lianglu, is based on the students of the poor family, and completely controls the ideas of the people at the bottom, the most in the world is not the officials, not the scholars, but these ordinary people, these people are combined, plus the support of the king, the support of the army, The result is devastating and uncontested by anyone.

Soon after, the door was opened again, and Kuai Liang and Kuai Rou walked out with their families with tired faces.

"Kuai Liang, Kuai Rou meets Vice President Xu," the two of them said respectfully.

Xu Shu immediately took a few steps forward, grabbed Kuai Lang's hands, and said ashamedly: "Master Hou, you have been wronged during this time, the king asked Shu to come to see you, and at the same time tell everyone that the Kuai family has made great contributions to the elimination of Cao Cao and the unification of the world, and no one can erase this."

When Kuai Liang heard this, tears instantly appeared in his eyes, and he choked up: "Thank you, thank you for your love."

In fact, he had long expected the wind and rain to come, but he didn't expect it to come so violently and so desperately.

"Master Hou, please rest assured, the imperial examination system has been determined, and the world will soon be peaceful again, and at the same time, the king asked Shu to tell Hou Ye that the imperial examination system is fair and just to everyone in the world" Xu Shu said softly.

"Vice President Xu, my Kuai family absolutely supports any decision of the Great King," Kuai Liang immediately announced.

"Good, good," Xu Shu smiled.

。。。。。

In the afternoon, Xu Shu came to Cai's house again, and saw that Cai Mao's face was much better than Kuai Liang's.

"Deputy Yuan Xu, Cai has been really tired recently, and it is estimated that he will not be able to lead the naval army in Jingzhou" Cai Mao said with some trepidation, although their family was saved from being besieged because of Huang Zhong, but seeing the tragic situation of the Kuai family, he really decided to go into seclusion and enjoy his old age in peace.

"Master Hou, the matter will soon pass, the battle of crossing the river will break out soon, Dayan needs Lord Hou to complete this last step" Xu Shu said softly, Cai Mao may be in general land warfare, but the water war does have its own achievements, otherwise Jiangdong will not be under Jingzhou all the time.

"But" Cai Mao still refused.

"Hou Ye, as long as you obey the king's orders, such a thing will not happen again, the king is nostalgic for the old love, the Cai family has suffered a lot of losses for the sake of Dayan, how can the king not care, Hou Ye is at ease" Xu Shu comforted.

Cai Mao was stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "So Cai will do his last little bit for the king!" ”

"Haha, that's right," Xu Shu said happily.

Late at night, Xu Shu returned to Guan Yu's temporary mansion.

"Yuan Zhi, how is it" Guan Yu asked with concern, of course he was very clear about the big turmoil this time, but because Yuan Xi had issued a strict order, no one was allowed to harass the army, so he didn't care very much, what he cared about now was whether Cai Mao could defeat the Jiangdong Navy and cover the army across the river.

"Guan Shuai is relieved, the Kuai and Cai families have stabilized, and Marquis Cai will rush to Jiangxia tomorrow to personally control the water army" Xu Shu smiled.

"Okay, great, as long as my army can cross the river, the state of Wu will perish" Guan Yu said confidently, not only because of his martial arts and his arrogance, but also because of the control of the three legions, the Eight Banners of the Grassland.

"Guan Shuai, the speed must be fast, the reason why the king has not yet been called the emperor is actually waiting for the completion of the renovation of the divine capital, and now it has been five months, and nearly 400,000 migrant workers have been mobilized, and the speed over there is very fast, at most one or two months, the king will officially ascend the throne, we must rush ahead of this time" Xu Shu reminded solemnly.

"Ben Shuai will set off tomorrow, and after ten days, he must launch a battle to cross the Yangtze River, cross the Yangtze River, and complete the unification of the world" Guan Yu said firmly.

"Kwan Shuai Yingming"

。。。。。

On the other side, in Wu County, Jiangdong, inside the Wu Palace.

"King, the world is determined, Jiangdong is unstoppable" I saw a side hall, Zhang Zhao, the left minister of Wu State, looked at the main seat, with a strong unwilling Sun Quan, and said with a sigh.

"Gong Zhang, I heard that Yuan Xi decided to cancel the inspection and implement the imperial examination system, which is the foundation of the Broken Shi Clan, aren't you afraid" Sun Quan said solemnly.

Zhang Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "Great King, but there is a slight possibility, and the minister will also swear to resist Dayan to the death."

"Why not, there are still 30,000 sailors and hundreds of warships, and he wants to cross the Yangtze River in a big way" Sun Quan said in a loud voice.

"King, although there is an army, there is no general!" Zhang Zhao said sadly.

Sun Quan's pupils shrank, and then tears flowed down his eyes, and he said bitterly: "Could it be that the great cause of Jiangdong that my father and brother have worked so hard to build are going to be defeated in the hands of Lone?" ”

"King, this is the mandate of heaven, not man-made, the king has insisted to the last step, enough" Zhang Zhao also said with sadness.

"No, I'm not reconciled, even if I want to descend, it depends on whether he Dayan has the ability to cross the Yangtze River," Sun Quan said firmly.

"King, General Zhendong asks to see" At this time, an attendant rushed in with a surprised face.

"What" Sun Quan immediately stood up, and then said excitedly: "Lone personally greets"

When Sun Quan came outside, he saw a general with a majestic figure, seven feet and seven inches, bronze complexion, clear and deep contours, calm and calm eyes, wearing a silver robe and a blood-red cloak on his shoulders.

"Brother Ziyi" looked at the figure who had re-put on his armor, and Sun Quan shouted tremblingly.

The person who came really helped Sun Ce sweep away Jiangdong, promised a confidant with his will, and died not to lose the first master of Jiangdong, Tai Shici, and also the last general of Jiangdong.
