Hearing this, Deng Zhi in the embassy couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, no matter what, as long as King Wu is willing to see him, then there is still a chance, what he is afraid of is that King Wu has always been unwilling to see him.

What's more, when he came, he encountered a large number of Wu troops advancing westward, and the westward advance must be aimed at Shu Han, which undoubtedly made Deng Zhi even more worried.

However, after the battle of Yiling, the relationship between the two sides can not help but be a lot more delicate, although Zhuge Kongming has reconciled many times, but now the ancestor Liu Bei is dead, His Majesty is young, and the attitude of Dongwu will not change, and the purpose of Deng Zhi's trip is to improve the relationship between the two sides, relieve the worries of the east and west of the two sides, and work together to resist Cao Wei in the north!

After a while, the simple but atmospheric carriage drove out of the embassy and slowly drove towards the palace of King Wu.

Entering the palace of King Wu, in order not to be rude, Deng Zhi immediately stepped off the carriage, walked a kilometer long road, climbed a hundred steps, and finally appeared in front of the main hall.

Looking at the main hall, Deng Zhi couldn't help but look serious, and only after dressing properly did he start to enter the main hall.

Entering the main hall, what appeared in front of Deng Zhi was a spacious gilded hall, sixteen jade-inlaid gold pillars were arranged on both sides, supporting the top of the thick hall, thirty-six gilded copper lamps, but also the hall was brightly lit, like daylight, the red carpet dozens of meters long was laid down from the first place, until the door, dignified atmosphere and revealed luxury, although it was the throne of Wu, but it was no less than the Shu Palace.

On both sides of the red carpet in the hall, there are sixteen cases corresponding to each other, I am afraid that it is for the gathering of the monarchs and ministers of Wu State, at this time, there are several people kneeling in it, seeing Deng Zhi enter the hall, everyone has turned their eyes to the door, looking at the Confucian general man who is dressed in white, his face is angular and angular, and he is full of fortitude, or curious, or plain, or disdainful.

Seeing this, Deng Zhi smiled slightly, and after bowing to everyone from afar, he stepped on the red carpet again, and walked towards the hall. ”

Hearing this, Deng Zhi turned around and saluted, "Your Excellency?" ”

"Lu Ju!"

Deng Zhi then said indifferently: "Your Excellency's words are wrong, the first emperor is newly dead, His Majesty has succeeded to the throne at the beginning, although he is young, he is diligent, and there are prime ministers in the court, and the governor of the central part of the country assists each other, the monarch and the ministers are united, the government and the opposition are stable, and the state affairs are not chaotic, although there are small troubles, there is no need to worry, so Zhi came this time not to ask, but to conspire!" ”

"Your Excellency is afraid that the small trouble is the matter of Yonghong in Nanzhong, and now Yonghong has descended to Wu and was appointed by the king as the Taishou of Yongchang, I don't know if for you, this is an external trouble or an internal worry?" The middle-aged man, who was sitting opposite Lu Ju and looked somewhat similar to him, slowly got up and said.

"Your Excellency?" Deng Zhi still bowed down.

"The father of Lu Yi, General Jianwei, and Lu Fan, Marquis of Wanling!"

"Haha, Your Excellency's words are so strange, Yonghong was originally a Shu minister, but now he has not been ordered by the king, and he has raised troops privately, which is regarded as a rebellion, and he is also a traitor, which is naturally an internal trouble, what are the doubts? As for King Wu's appointment as Yongchang Taishou, it is even more funny, now Yongchang is Shu, Yongchang Taishou is Lu Kai appointed by His Majesty, Lord Lu served, when did he become a chaotic minister to serve as Taishou, Zhi I don't know where Yongchang is in your mouth, isn't there two Yongchang in the world? Deng Zhi said righteously.

"Humph!" Hearing this, Lu Fan shook his sleeves, sat down immediately, and stopped talking, as Deng Zhi said, although Yonghong was named Yongchang Taishou by Sun Quan, he was blocked by Lu Kai outside Yongchang City, and he has not yet taken half a step.

"In the battle of Yiling, the Metropolitan Governor broke your army, and he gained countless burdens, which can be said to have gained a lot, I don't know if he is tough to return to the army now?" Seeing that he was deflated again and again, and then looking at Deng Zhi's face, the Jiangdong ministers present couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied, and then saw one person get up and sneered.

When everyone heard this, they were first shocked, and then they sneered, aren't you tough, aren't you awesome, isn't Yiling still beaten and lost his armor?

Hearing this, Deng Zhi's face was a little displeased, his hands in his sleeves were slightly clenched, and the green tendons on the back of his hands burst out, and after a while, his hands were slowly released again, and his eyes were fixed on the person who spoke.

Seeing Deng Zhi looking at him, the man's expression became even more proud, and he couldn't help but introduce himself a little loudly: "Quan Cong! ”

"Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the first emperor fought in all directions, defeated many times, but repeatedly defeated and defeated without discouragement, the most difficult time is less than a thousand soldiers and horses, and there is no place to live, but it can still establish the community of Shu Han, turn the tide in the fall, help the general of the Han Dynasty, and now the battle of Yiling, but a small defeat in several defeats, and my Shu Han is now sitting on several counties in Yizhou, hundreds of thousands of soldiers, far stronger than the early years of the first emperor, what are you afraid of?"

Hearing this, Quan Cong couldn't help but turn blue, and then sat down.

After Deng Zhi took a few steps forward, another middle-aged Confucian got up, bowed and saluted: "I'm afraid Your Excellency doesn't know, now Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi has joined forces with Xianbei Wang Kebineng, Southern Barbarian King Meng Huo, Shangyong Mengda, each raised 100,000 troops to attack Shu, and sent Cao Zhen as a general to unify the army to attack Yangping and Hanzhong, and the number of people and horses is not less than 400,000, and now you are afraid that it is not good!" ”

Then the middle-aged Confucian clasped his fists again and introduced himself: "Wu Cang! ”

The other party is rude and doesn't give a good face, Deng Zhi naturally won't take care of the other party, on the contrary, the other party treats him politely, and he is naturally humble to him.

Deng Zhi didn't know what Cao Wei said about Shu, and when he heard the other party say this, he couldn't help but be worried, and a touch of melancholy flashed on his plain face, and he was quickly hidden, and immediately saluted:

"Although the enemy has 400,000, my Shu Han soldiers and horses are invincible, but the world's military affairs are not determined by the number of people, the ancient times to win more battles with less as many as cattle hair, recently there are more battles of Guandu, the battle of Chibi, and now it is the autumn harvest season, our army is safe and secure, this is the time of day; The terrain in Shuzhong is precipitous, the war horse is difficult to walk, easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is geographically advantageous; Although there are 400,000 enemy troops, they are divided into four directions, and they are not one person to lead the army, and there will be a gap in the long run, but my Shu Han is a monarch and a minister, this is a people. ”

"In this way, our side has taken advantage of the time, place, and people, and even if the enemy has 400,000 people, there is no reason to be invincible." Suppressing the worries in his heart, Deng Zhi pretended to be strong.

"Your Excellency's talent, admire it!" Wu Cang admired.

At this time, I saw an old man with white hair and beard walking out on crutches, looked at Deng Zhi and said, "Your Excellency, do you want to follow Zhuge Liang fifteen years ago and fight against my Jiangdong ministers?" It's too arrogant! ”

"Although Zhi has read for a few years, there is a little ink in his belly, but after all, he is only a shallow learner, and I am only the last talent in Shu Han, Emperor Meng and His Majesty will not give up, and serve as a scholar, the official is heavy and light, and he is panicked, how dare he compare with the prime minister, the prime minister is resourceful, and he is the minister of the society!"

"This time, as an envoy, Zhi entered the palace to meet King Wu, but was made difficult by the monarchs in every way, which was rudeness to the monarchs; King Wu personally ordered to summon him, and the monarchs obstructed it in every possible way, which was regarded as contempt for the prestige of King Wu, which was a manifestation of disloyalty, and such rude and disloyal behavior inevitably weakened the demeanor of a great country! ”

"You! You! Cough... Cough! I saw that the old man's face was flushed, and he pointed at Deng Zhi, looking angry.

"Master Zhang!"

"Master Zhang!"

......

Seeing that the old man was unwell, everyone hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.

Deng Zhi only heard the name of the previous four people and did not see him, so he needed to ask them one by one, but he knew and recognized the old man Deng Zhi, this person was the old minister of Eastern Wu, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Zibu!
