On the city wall, Xu Shu saw four soldiers carrying a sedan into the city, and followed them with everyone.

When the soldiers saw Xu Shu and others coming down, they stopped.

Xu Shu walked over, opened the curtain of the sedan, and looked inside.

Looking at Zhou Yu who was lying quietly in the sedan chair, Xu Shu said: "Come here, hurry up and deliver the letter to Wu County and report it to Wu Hou."

A soldier responded.

Xu Shu lowered the curtain and said to Zhang Zhao: "Mr. Zhang, please handle his posthumous affairs. It's a long way to go back to Wuxian from here."

Zhang Zhao's eyes were red and he nodded.

Xu Shu then looked at Lu Su, Pang Tong, Zhao Yun, Zhang Xiu, Lu Bu and others and said: "Everyone go to the government office immediately and hold a meeting immediately to discuss strategies to defeat the enemy!"

Everyone immediately cheered up and responded in unison.

Wu County Wu County.

Lu family.

Lu Yi was walking in the garden with Xiao Qiao, who was pregnant with Liujia.

Not far away, Qiao Hao was playing with Lu Yi's eldest son, Lu Xian.

Zhuge Liang was sitting in the pavilion, holding a baby in his left hand and reading a bamboo slip in his right hand.

Lu Qiling was at the weapon rack, looking at the weapons on the weapon rack with bright eyes, looking eager to try.

Liu Yu followed suit from the side, looking wary.

Seeing Lu Qiling suddenly reaching out and touching a halberd, Liu Yu hurriedly said: "Oh my God, can you calm down a little? You are pregnant, can you please stop tossing it?"

Lu Qiling begged, "Just for a moment?"

Liu Yu supported Xiao Qiao in the distance, and Lu Yi, who was looking over, pursed his lips and said, "Look there."

Lu Qiling then let go of her halberd angrily and glared viciously at Lu Yi in the distance.

At the entrance of the hall, Huang Yueying sat on her knees next to Xu Shu's mother, holding a bamboo tube in her hand, with a bright glass piece in one end.

Shake the bamboo tube, as if to shake out the glass pieces.

Seeing that she failed, she picked up the bamboo tube again and glanced at Xu Shu's mother beside her.

Xu Shu's mother looked at Huang Yueying with a strange expression on her face.

Beside Xu Shu's mother, Cao Jie and Gu Hui, the eldest daughter of Xu Shu's fiancée and the younger brother of Gu Yong, the head of the Gu family, were sitting together, looking at a paper book with enthused eyes.

Zhuge Jun, on the other hand, was helping Grandma Lu Su to feed the fish next to a water tank.

Behind the two of them, a pretty young woman with a slightly bulging belly was holding fish food.

This young woman is none other than Zhang Ying, who had an affair with Lu Su.

Back then, after Lu Yi, Liu Ye, and Lu Su worked together to kill the bandit commander Zheng Bao in Lujiang, Lu Yi took Zhang Ying to Wuxian.

Because Lu Su's grandmother disliked Zhang Ying's background and did not allow Lu Su to interact with her, Lu Yi arranged for Zhang Ying to live in Gu Yong's Gu family and become Gu Yong's adopted daughter.

Although Lu Su's grandmother disliked Zhang Ying's background, that was limited to Zhang Ying's interactions with Lu Su.

Now that Zhang Ying was just here to see Lu Yi and help Zhuge Ruoxue by doing things like being a maid, Grandma Lu Su didn't have much objection.

Originally, Lu Yi did not approve of Zhang Ying's appearance in the Lu family, fearing that Lu Su's grandmother would resent Zhang Ying.

But Zhang Ying is already pregnant with Lu Su's child.

Now that she was left alone in the Gu family, she would inevitably feel a little lonely, so she did not continue to object.

Grandma Lu Su is also old.

Especially in the past year, my appetite has been greatly reduced and I am often bedridden.

Although Lu Yi agreed to take Lu Su and Lu Su's grandmother to Qu Anangong's house, he would help Lu Su choose a good girl from the Nangong family to be his wife.

However, now, firstly, Lu Su is leading troops north to aid Xuzhou against the army of Yuan Shao's eldest son, Yuan Tan; secondly, Lu Su's grandmother is obviously in poor health.

Even the elderly cannot support the journey from Wuxian County to District A.

Lu Yi asked Hua Tuo to show it to Lu Su's grandmother. The old man was old and everything was normal.

Hua Tuo asked Lu Yi to prepare the funeral arrangements for Lu Su's grandmother.

It can be as short as half a year or as long as one year.

Grandma Lu Su has always been thinking about having a great-grandson.

After considering all these aspects, Lu Yi agreed to let Zhang Ying come over.

If Zhang Ying could give birth to an heir, especially a son, Grandma Lu Su would not be so resistant to Zhang Ying.

Just as Lu Yi was helping Xiao Qiao for a walk, in the Lu family courtyard, Mrs. Wu was sitting in the sun basking in the sun.

Sun Quan was reading a book on the side.

Sun Quan's two younger brothers and Sun Ce's son were playing not far away.

As for Sun Ren, he was dancing with swords and guns in the courtyard.

Mrs. Wu has aged too much in the past two years.

What was originally a black hair was now completely white.

Deep wrinkles also appeared on the forehead.

Ever since the Sun family was destroyed during the uprising, she took Sun Quan and others to live in the Lu family's mansion.

In the Lu family, although you don't have to worry about food, drink and clothing, no matter where you go, the Lu family will follow you.

She now feels like every day is like a year.

Looking past her second son, Sun Quan, who was reading a book, Mrs. Wu sighed secretly.

The only reason she can still survive now is this time.

She has given up hope of recapturing Jiangdong.

She only has one thought left now, that is, Zhou Yu can take her three sons and grandson far away from Jiangdong.

Zhou Yu actually secretly sent her a letter once, through Zhang Hong's hand.

Although the old ministers in Jiangdong already belong to Lu Yi, they will occasionally help with some private matters about her.

Zhou Yu told her in the letter that he had arrived in Hebei and was under Yuan Shao's banner.

This time, he will go south to Xuzhou with Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan, and then take back Jiangdong and rescue them so that they must endure the humiliation and bear the burden now and not arouse the murderous intentions of people like Lu Yi.

Zhou Yu was confident in winning Jiangdong.

After taking Jiangdong, he will kill Lu Yi and others to avenge the Sun family.

At that time, he will also act as her son on behalf of the eldest son and raise the second son and others to grow up.

Just as Mrs. Wu was watching Sun Quan in a daze, a figure rushed in from outside and rushed straight to Lu Yi's residence.

Mrs. Wu watched the figure pass by expressionlessly and showed no reaction.

The figure drove straight to the courtyard of Lu Yi's residence and said hurriedly: "Marquis Wu, the urgent letter that Mr. Liu just received came from Xiapi and was sent directly to me!"

Xiao Qiao smiled at Lu Yi who was supporting him: "Husband, go and do your work!"

Lu Yi hummed, carefully let go of Xiao Qiao, walked quickly towards the figure, took a bamboo tube, and pulled out a piece of cloth from it.

The cloth was sent by Xu Shu from Xiapi.

There were only two things explained in it: first, Zhou Yu was dead; second, he asked Zhang Zhao to dispose of Zhou Yu's body, and then sent people to Wu County, hoping that Lu Yi could bury Zhou Yu and Sun Ce together.

Lu Yi also let out a long sigh.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu died young.

But this time, he died in his own hands.

He really admired Zhou Yu's military talent. Before he got Chen Deng, Chen Gong, Pang Tong and others, he really hoped that Zhou Yu could help him and conquer the world together.

Who knows we won't be able to get together after all.

Once Zhou Yu died, the original grudges in Lujiang Shu County were completely over.

Lu Yi walked towards the courtyard holding the cloth.

Several people need to be informed about this matter: Mrs. Wu and Sun Quan.

Not long ago, the governor of the residence, Shi Zhanghong, came to him privately to plead guilty.

It turned out that Zhou Yu wrote a letter to him and asked him to help deliver it to Mrs. Wu.

After all, Zhang Hong was not cruel, so he secretly sent the letter to Mrs. Wu without reading the content.

Lu Yi did not blame Zhang Hong and told him not to think so much.

He pretended not to know that Zhou Yu wrote to Mrs. Wu.

Now that Mrs. Wu and her family are locked up in the Lu family's mansion, they are not afraid of causing any trouble.

He would occasionally visit Sun Quan and others on weekdays, but he would not talk about Zhou Yu's affairs. He would only talk about daily life and Sun Ren's affairs.

Now that Zhou Yu is dead, and Xu Shu requested that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce be buried together, Mrs. Wu still needs to be informed about this.

At least, Mrs. Wu, as Sun Ce's mother, still has the decision-making power about being buried with Sun Ce.

When they rushed to the compound, Sun Quan's two younger brothers and Sun Ce's son, who were playing around, saw this and rushed over, laughing and joking.

"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law, play with us!"

"Uncle, uncle, come practice sword practice with us today!"

Lu Yi looked at the three children who were already up to his chest and said softly: "I have something else to do today, so you can go play in my yard."

The three children immediately ran over.

Sun Quan and Mrs. Wu both looked over.

Sun Ren, who was wielding a knife and a gun, also stopped and said with a smile: "Why are you so serious today?"

Lu Yi smiled and said, "Ren'er, I have something to tell my mother-in-law and Zhong Mou. You can go play inside too."

Sun Ren pouted.

Lu Yi touched her head and said, "Be good."

Only then did Sun Ren snort.

Sun Quan looked a little nervous as he watched Sun Ren leave.

Every time he faced Lu Yi alone, he felt like he was being oppressed and out of breath.

It wasn't until Sun Ren disappeared from sight that Lu Yi said: "Zhongmou, there is no need to be afraid. I said, as long as you don't cause trouble, I won't stop you from whatever you want to do."

Sun Quan lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

Mrs. Wu also looked a little nervous, and she forced a smile and said: "Wu Hou, you, you are so serious, what's the matter? I, I am very honest these days."

Seeing Mrs. Wu's appearance, Lu Yi shook his head, handed the cloth over and said, "I'm here to discuss something with you, about the burial of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce together."

Sun Quan's face turned pale.

He knew the content of Zhou Yu's previous letter.

He also counted on Zhou Yu to rescue him.

Facing Lu Yi, he was really scared!

He was so scared that he didn't even dare to fall asleep when he thought about him.

I was afraid that Lu Yi would suddenly send someone over and give him a knife while he was sleeping!

Now, Zhou Yu is dead?

Mrs. Wu was also stunned.

The next moment, she dullly took the cloth from Lu Yi's hand and glanced at it.

Seeing the words "Zhou Yu is dead" in Xu Shu's letter, Mrs. Wu felt like the world was spinning, her eyes went dark, and she fell backwards in a daze.

Lu Yi, with quick eyes and quick hands, stretched out his hand to hold him back.

Mrs. Wu's whole body twitched violently several times and foam came out of her mouth.

Sun Quan was so frightened that he cried and said heartbreakingly: "Mother! Mother!"

When other people in the Lu family's mansion heard the shouting, they ran over.

Mrs. Wu's scene was really beyond Lu Yi's expectation!

He did not expect that Mrs. Wu would react so greatly when she heard the news of Zhou Yu's death!

Seeing her twitching and slowly becoming silent, with her eyes widened, Lu Yi hurriedly stretched out his hand to touch the tip of her nose.

Sun Ren was standing next to him, looking at Mrs. Wu in horror.

Lu Yi looked a little sad and said in a hoarse voice: "Ren'er, your mother is gone."
