Jiang Wei wanted to explain something more, but Yu Yi walked over with a smile and said, "Why don't you become the prime minister, and I will give way to you!" Jiang Wei was very surprised after hearing this, and he bowed and said, "In the past, I was here Kong Ming studied under Prime Minister Kong Ming. Kong Ming spoke highly of you, but he always had some grudges about your becoming emperor. Before his death, he knew that you were not a firm minister to the Han Dynasty, and he only hoped that you would take it for the sake of your elder brother. , shoulder the heavy burden of the Han Dynasty."

After hearing this, Yu Yi looked at the north and sighed: "Now I don't know what I should do!" After saying that, he asked his entourage to dismiss everyone, and he seemed to be lost in thought.

It is said that during Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition, as Yu Yi's children, Yu Sisi and Yu Yongqi also put forward different opinions and hoped to launch an attack on Wu and Wei. Yu Yi agreed under Zhugeshan's persuasion. To let the younger generation grow up, they each arranged 10,000 troops.

Yu Sisi insisted that Wei was always the target of the key attack, so he brought his soldiers and horses to the new city, preparing to join forces with Jiang Wei to facilitate the reception and go to Luoyang together. However, before the soldiers and horses arrived nearby, they encountered each other one after another. Strange things happened, either it rained heavily or the roads were blocked. The most outrageous one was that the soldiers encountered hallucinations and disappeared for no reason. At the end, Yu Sisi recalled the battle. Hundreds of thousands of troops marched to Luoyang, but they didn't know what happened. They returned with a disastrous defeat and have been unable to recover since then. Do these phenomena today corroborate with what happened back then? What exactly are they? With this question in mind, Yu Sisi ordered everyone to retreat and started walking towards Xiangyang.

As for Yu Yongqi, after Yu Daye's death, he was the leader among the descendants and had the best chance to inherit Yu Yi's position. He was also very smart at the time and did not let people's compliments confuse his mind. He has always maintained a solid and simple style. , he believed that Soochow was greatly weakened after Sun Quan's death, and Wei had attacked Soochow again, so it was a good time to attack Soochow again. However, Soochow and Xiangyang had always concluded an alliance, and if they launched an attack rashly, it might cause the relationship between the two parties to deteriorate. They were at odds with each other, so although he sent troops to Jiangxia, he never launched an attack.

After the death of Zhuge Ke in Soochow, the Lord of Wu also matured a lot. He was very frightened when he learned that Yu Yongqi was leading 10,000 troops in Jiangxia, so he convened everyone for discussion.

Some ministers suggested: "Zhuge Ke belongs to the Zhuge family. You must know that the wife of Prime Minister Yu Yi of Shu is Zhuge Shan. As far as I know, Zhuge Ke is Zhuge Shan's distant relative. Now although we have moved Zhuge Shan Ke, but he also has enmity with Xishu, and now Yuyi is sending troops to attack us!"

After hearing this, Lord Wu looked very panicked and said: "The Prime Minister of Western Shu, Yu Yi, is very strategic and knows how to use troops. If he leads troops to attack Soochow, even if the late emperor is still alive, I am afraid he will not be able to resist it."

At this time, a woman came out and said, "Why don't you send someone to Xishu to inquire about the reason?"

Everyone looked and saw that the woman looked very similar to Xiao Qiao. Her surname was Zhou and she was the daughter of Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao. It turned out that after Zhou Yu passed away, Xiao Qiao was heartbroken and found a place to prepare for suicide. However, she found out that she was pregnant. Pregnant, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he concealed his name and came to a remote mountain village by the Dongwu River. He settled down and gave birth to Zhou Qiao. When Zhou Qiao came of age, his intelligence and martial arts skills were inherited from his father's genes. She often solved problems for everyone in the village and had a high reputation. Later, after Lord Wu ascended the throne, he heard about her reputation and went to the village to recruit her. Zhou Qiao knew that Lord Wu was interested in her, so she proposed to go as long as she didn't become his wife. , willing to provide advice for Soochow, so Lord Wu agreed.

Later, Master Wu wanted to go against his promise and take Zhou Qiao as his concubine. Zhou Qiao also lived in depression and tried to find a way to escape. Now the opportunity came.

Wu Zhuzheng was at a loss. When he heard Zhou Qiao's suggestion, he sighed: "Zhou Qiao's words are exactly what I meant. I wonder which lover is willing to share my worries?"

Lord Wu was very young and had a poor lifestyle, so not many people in the court were convinced by him. At this time, Zhou Qiao came out to pay homage and said, "I hope you can send me there!"

Everyone followed suit and put forward suggestions one after another. Lord Wu had no choice but to agree to the request, so Zhou Qiao went on a mission to Xishu on behalf of the state of Wu.

Zhou Qiao knew that although the emperor of Shu was Liu Chan, the person who really meant what he said was Yu Yi in Xiangyang, so he went directly to Xiangyang.

It is said that Yu Yongqi has been guarding the border and is hesitant. If he enters, it will break the existing balance between Shu and Wu, and he may also confront Soochow. Ten thousand troops are slightly insufficient. If he does not enter, his father has already expressed his determination. , will be regarded as a laughing stock by everyone.

At this moment, soldiers from Shu suddenly came to report that a ship was floating on the river, and the flag of Soochow was on the ship. Yu Yongqi quickly went to see it, and found that there was indeed a ship, and there was a woman on the bow holding an umbrella.

The woman was obviously not a mortal creature, and her appearance was outstanding, which prompted the defensive soldiers to come out to check. Yu Yongqi was also a little moved, and quickly stabilized everyone, and asked the archers to prepare in case the enemy ambush.

Soon the boat approached, and the woman shouted: "I am an envoy sent by Soochow, please let me pass!"

Yu Yongqi replied: "We were ordered to prepare to attack Soochow. Now that the arrow is on the string and we have to fire it, you should go back!"

Zhou Qiao didn't feel scared at all after hearing this. With all the archers around him ready to attack, he walked up to Yu Yongqi without changing his expression. He put away his umbrella, bowed and said, "Your Excellency, Chen Bing is near Jiangxia." It’s been more than a month, I’m afraid I have some scruples, otherwise I’m afraid the troops would have been used without waiting for me to come, so why don’t you let me come and advise the general?”

After hearing this, Yu Yongqi felt a little guilty and secretly sighed that the envoy who came this time was not an ordinary person, so he took her into the camp.

Zhou Qiao saw that the other person's eyes had not left her, and she was not shy. Instead, she looked relaxed and generous. She was used to being looked at by men like this. She had no choice but to look too beautiful.

Yu Yongqi found that Zhou Qiao was looking at her with a smile. She must have noticed her behavior and seemed a little embarrassed. She praised: "I didn't expect someone like Soochow Huanlai. It's really amazing."

Zhou Qiao said: "Thank you for the compliment, General. I don't know your name."

Yu Yongqi told her situation. Zhou Qiao was surprised after hearing this and said: "So you are Yu Yongqi. I heard about you in Soochow!"

Seeing that the other party seemed to admire her, Yu Yongqi became even more interested and said, "I am an unknown person, how come this girl has heard of me!"

So Zhou Qiao told the rumors and introduced himself without any concealment. It turned out that these were some of Yu Yongqi's heroic acts in Jingzhou. When word spread to Jiangdong, they changed their taste and became all kinds of exaggerations.

When Yu Yongqi learned that Zhou Qiao was the descendant of Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao, he was also surprised. He knew the importance of this messenger. When Zhou Qiao was about to persuade Yu Yongqi to retreat, Yu Yongqi just stood up and said: " Please report this matter to my father!" After saying that, he handed over the power to the deputy general and personally escorted Zhou Qiao to Xiangyang with his troops.
