"Zhou Gongjin, the envoy sent by Sun Ce?"

Peng Cheng

Inside the Provincial Governor's Mansion

After Gu Yi heard the news of Zhou Yu's visit, a smile that was hard to detect appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He originally thought that with Sun Ce's reputation, which was now rotten to the streets, Zhou Yu would not join Sun Ce again.

Unexpectedly, the story went around and around and still returned to a certain turning point.

But thinking about it, this was also within reason.

After all, with the fall of the three provinces of Yan, Yu, and Xu, the Guandong aristocratic group had further entered a state of low health.

Under such circumstances.

The aristocratic families in various places in Guandong, in order to survive, had to change their original high and mighty posture.

Smart people, such as the Xuzhou aristocratic families led by Chen Deng, Mi Zhu, and Cao Bao, chose to offer the entire Xuzhou to Gu Yi to preserve their own families.

The Lujiang Zhou family was also a top-tier aristocratic family of the time.

In a chaotic world, if a family wanted to survive and further develop, it ultimately had to choose a warlord to invest in.

Investing in Gu Yi, the return and risk were not proportional.

But if they invested in Sun Ce, it would be "hoarding goods for a high price."

This feeling was similar to Lü Buwei investing in Ying Yiren during the Warring States period.

Although Ying Yiren was not the first heir to the Qin throne at the beginning, the probability of becoming the King of Qin was not high.

Looking at the entire Qin state and even the six eastern states, no faction was willing to support Ying Yiren.

Under such circumstances, Lü Buwei choosing to help Ying Yiren would naturally make Ying Yiren full of gratitude, like "sending charcoal in the snow."

Now.

Zhou Yu and the Lujiang Zhou family behind him betting on Sun Ce was the same principle.

For Sun Ce, who was known as the "executioner of the aristocratic families."

Being able to obtain Zhou Yu's assistance was truly a matter of great joy.

After clarifying the ins and outs of this, Gu Yi chose to meet Zhou Yu.

……

Zhou Yu was worthy of being the handsome man known as "Beautiful Zhou Lang."

Although his appearance could not compare to Gu Yi, and even less to the handsome readers who were reading this book.

But one had to say, his appearance was truly not low.

After seeing Gu Yi, Zhou Yu bowed according to the rules.

Subsequently, Gu Yi signaled for him to find a seat and sit down.

Only to see Zhou Yu speak slowly:
