That night, in Qu'a City.

Bu Zhao, as Jiangdong's envoy, was hoisted up the tower in a bamboo basket and escorted to Gaoyi's mansion in the city.

At first, he stood in the back hall, straightened his clothes, and tried his best to explain to Gao Yi the purpose of his visit.

But Gao Yi listened with little interest. He always lay on the main seat, using the dagger in his right hand to eat the cooked beef held in his left hand.

When Bu Zhi said that his mouth was dry and he was ready to take a short rest.

Suddenly, eight burly wolf soldiers were found, struggling to lift a crowbar and carrying a huge cauldron weighing a thousand kilograms to the middle of the back hall.

When the huge cauldron fell in response, the ground shook violently, and Bu Zhi was shocked and panicked.

When he saw someone bringing firewood and lighting a fire, he couldn't help but gasp.

Because he thought of a famous punishment in the pre-Qin period, called the punishment of cooking with a tripod.

Although the two countries were at war, neither of them killed the envoys.

However, there are still cases of envoys being cooked and killed using large cauldrons.

Think back to the time when Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony.

Li Shiqi, an important adviser to Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, volunteered to go to Qi to persuade the King of Qi to surrender.

After some coercion and inducement from Li Shiqi, King Qi knew that the situation was over and agreed to submit to Liu Bang.

However, Han Xin, who was stationed on the border of Qi State, did not follow martial ethics and directly took advantage of Qi State's unpreparedness to invade Qi State's land.

In the end, Li Shiqi served as an envoy to the Han Dynasty and was executed by the angry King of Qi.

"A man cannot eat five pots of food in life, and he will be cooked in five pots of food in death. Although I am a counselor, I am full of arrogance and arrogance. Why should I be afraid of death?"

When Bu Sta was held down by two wolf soldiers and was about to be thrown into the giant cauldron, there was a sound of doubt in his ears.

"Wait a minute, what did you just say?"

Facing Gao Yi with a confused look on his face.

Bu Zhao raised his head fiercely, stubbornly shook off the arms of the two wolf soldiers next to him, and said angrily: "If a man can't live with five cauldrons of food, he will die with five cauldrons of food."

Gao Yi curled his lips and continued a little helplessly: "What did I say next?"

Bu Zhi frowned, but still raised his head and glared: "Although I, Bu Zhi, am a counselor, I am arrogant and arrogant. Why should I be afraid of death?"

After hearing this person's name, Gao Yi immediately sat up straight, put on a smiling face, and hurriedly waved his hands to disperse the two wolf soldiers next to him.

"It turns out that your Excellency is the rumored Mr. Bu Zhi! I have heard about your great talent for a long time, and when I saw him today, he really lived up to his reputation!"

"Why are you two still standing there? Hurry up to the back kitchen and greet the cooks. Hurry up and make some more delicacies."

"By the way, go to the wine cellar and get the jar of 1982 rice wine. I want to have a good drink with Mr. Bu Zhi."

The huge changes in Gao Yi made Bu Zhi a little confused and began to doubt life for a while.

He thought to himself: I am Bu Zhao, am I really so famous?

Today's Gaoyi is in the critical period of the Southern and Northern War, and he really has no idea about Bu Zhi, the later prime minister of Soochow.

But no matter what, He Buzhao has a great niece who is famous in history!

【Empress of Soochow·Bu Lianshi】

Looking at Bu Zhi with a puzzled face.

Gao Yi slowly said: "Does Mr. Bu Zhi have a niece of the same clan, named Bu Lianshi?"

Bu Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly, not knowing what Gao Yi had in mind, and couldn't help but be a little wary.

But people under the eaves have to bow their heads.

Who would want to die if they had a chance to live?

Bu Zhao's originally stern face also showed a smile, and he replied:

"Trainer, she is not my niece of the same race, but my own daughter, Bu Zhao. How did Marquis Shouchun learn my daughter's name?"

I heard that Bu Zhao was actually Bu Lianshi's biological father.

The smile on Gao Yi's face became more sincere, and he slowly explained: "Huaiyin City is an important town in the Xiapi Kingdom. When I followed Wen Hou to conquer Liu Bei, I passed by Huaiyang City."

"I happened to meet a trainer who was out for fun and was robbed by a group of bandits. At that time, I was riding alone and killed more than a dozen bandits in one go, and finally rescued the trainer.

"At that time, I was attracted by the trainer's gentle and virtuous temperament, and I fell in love at first sight. Unfortunately, the military situation was urgent and I didn't have time to communicate with her in depth."

"When I returned to Huaiyin City again, I still couldn't find the trainer. After careful investigation, I learned that because of the war in Xuzhou, the entire Bu family fled to Jiangdong for refuge."

"I originally thought that I would never meet my trainer again in this life, but I never thought that I would meet Mr. Bu Zhi here today. It is really fate!"

Bu Zha suddenly realized it and exclaimed: "Oh! So that's it. I did hear my daughter mention this matter two years ago. I never thought that it was Shouchun Hou who rescued my daughter back then!"

Deep in his words, Bu Zhi actually looked ashamed and bowed to Gao Yi to thank him.

How could Gao Yi accept such a great gift? He quickly got up and walked to Bu Zhao to help him up.

"A man, a true man, should draw his sword to help when the road is rough. In the past, taking action was just a random act."

"But I have a merciless request, and I hope Mr. Bu Zhi can agree to it!"

After thinking for a moment, Bu Zhi nodded and said with a smile: "As long as I don't let you do anything that violates my principles and harms Jiangdong, it's okay for Shouchun Hou to say so."

Gao Yi took two steps back, his face full of true feelings, and he bowed and said:

"Gao Yi has been wandering for half his life, and he only regrets not meeting his beloved wife. If I don't abandon you, I would like to be my father-in-law."

Hearing this, Bu Zhi was both surprised and secretly happy, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

After all, Gao Yixiong lives in Xuzhou, has tens of thousands of wolf soldiers, and has many fierce generals under his command.

Attacked Cao Cao from the west and occupied the entire Pei Kingdom.

He crossed the Huai River to destroy Yuan and captured nearly half of Huainan.

Now, with only 20,000 troops, the entire Jiangdong has been plunged into a quagmire of war.

Even the wise and demonic Zhou Yu could only choose to be forced to negotiate peace with him.

How could Bu Zhi not be surprised that such a mighty young hero actually fell in love with his own daughter?

It's just that he belongs to the Jiangdong camp after all. If Zhou Yu knows about this, I'm afraid his life will not be easy in the future!

Gao Yi was so shrewd that he could see Bu Zhi's concerns at a glance and said with a smile: "Mr. Bu Zhi, although Jiangdong is vast, there are few people and little land, so it is difficult to achieve success."

"Today's lords of Jiangdong are worse than ever. Sun Jian is the tiger of Jiangdong, Sun Ce is the little overlord of Jiangdong, and Sun Quan, the purple-haired kid, is just a rat from Jiangdong."

"In the battle of Hefei, Sun Quan commanded an army of 100,000 people, but my subordinate Zhang Liao only led 800 tiger and horsemen, and he killed more than half of the 100,000 Wu soldiers and returned in fear."

"Instead of following that cowardly Sun Quan, you might as well return to Xuzhou with me. After all, Huaiyin City is the ancestral land of the Bu clan!"

Bu Zhao was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

What Gao Yi said is true. Compared with Sun Jian and Sun Ce in the past, Sun Quan was indeed in a difficult position.

In the Battle of Hefei, Sun Quan commanded an army of 100,000 men, but within five days, they were almost completely destroyed. In several counties in the east of the Yangtze River, every household hung white sails and burned paper money.

How could such a person achieve a great hegemony and lead the entire Jiangdong to become bigger and stronger and create greater glory?
