Chapter 98 Sun Ce and Zhou Yu
When Jia Xu heard that someone from the palace went to the General of Cavalry's residence, he couldn't help but smile. He had already grasped Liu Hong's mind.
The character he created for Guo Hao really satisfied Liu Hong, although Guo Hao was playing the role in his true colors.
This kind of completely realistic character cannot be broken.
Jia Xu worked non-stop for three days and finally got an answer that satisfied him.
Jia Xu held the information in his hand and gave a sinister smile.
The aura of reducing intelligence is really a surprising ability.
The intelligence showed the information of Zhou Yi, the governor of Luoyang, and the one marked in red was Zhou Yi's son, Zhou Yu.
At the age of eighteen, the same age as Guo Hao, he has already awakened his spiritual talent. He is truly a hero of the time.
If it weren't for the discrepancy between this and Ma Chao's age, he really would not have been able to trace the crime to Zhou Yu.
There is an unclear period in the lives of Ma Chao and Zhou Yu. According to their confessions, the two should have been children, but they reached adult age.
Jia Xu was not sure what the reason was for this kind of time correction, but he was sure that anyone who encountered this kind of situation was an outstanding person and should not be ignored.
Jia Xu quickly handed the visiting card to the residence of Zhou Yi, the magistrate of Luoyang, and soon Zhou Yi came in person with his housekeeper to greet him.
Although Jia Xu was only a minor official, he was indeed the General of Cavalry's real aide. As the saying goes, a seventh-rank official is the prime minister's door. Zhou Yi did not want to offend the General of Cavalry who was at the peak of his power.
"Jia Wenhe, the staff member of the General of Cavalry."
Jia Xu did not make any other introductions. He came to Zhou Yi just to bring him to justice, so naturally he had to use the most appropriate identity.
"Luoyang Magistrate Zhou Yi, please."
Zhou Yi warmly welcomed Jia Xu into the mansion. Although he didn't know what had happened, Zhou Yi still showed the magnanimity of a noble family and invited Jia Xu into the hall.
"Master Zhou, it's a pity that we didn't have the chance to meet before. It's a pity to think that we will never see each other again in the future."
Jia Xu said calmly, but his words made Zhou Yi's hair stand on end.
Zhou Yi's mind raced as he analyzed the meaning of Jia Xu's visit. It certainly couldn't be as simple as coming here just to give him a heads-up just to kill him.
"What does Mr. Jia mean?"
Jia Xu was a little surprised. As expected of the head of a great aristocratic family, he could maintain such a refined demeanor in the face of life-and-death threats. Should it be said that the aristocratic family is truly worthy of being called an aristocratic family?
"Master Zhou, I'm sure you've heard about what happened on the street a few days ago . The adults who got into the conflict weren't very rational. What do you think?"
Jia Xu nodded lightly, Zhou Yi understood immediately, and then his face turned pale.
Others may not know about Zhou Yu's spiritual talent, but as his father, it is possible that he does not know about it. However, this matter should not be known by a third person.
"Master Jia, what do you want to do?"
"I should be the one asking Lord Zhou this question. What do you want to do?" Jia Xu waved his hand and said.
“Huh~”
"Go and ask the young master to come over."
Zhou Yi let out a long sigh and asked the housekeeper to find Zhou Yu.
There was a glimmer of surprise in Jia Xu's eyes, but he was not too surprised. It was only human nature to sacrifice the chariot to save the king.
Since Zhou Yi is the head of the Zhou family, he is destined to give up everything for the Zhou family.
"As expected, the noble families in the world are not simple characters. In order to protect the family, they can even abandon their own sons. Is this the price to pay for a prominent status?"
"Lord Zhou, you are worthy of being the head of a noble family!" Jia Xu said with a hint of sarcasm.
"Every family head has moments when he or she is forced to do things against their will. Once you gain status and enjoy power, you must shoulder responsibility."
Zhou Yi felt a little distressed, as he knew that Zhou Yu’s life or death would be uncertain after he left. What made matters worse was that he was the one who handed Zhou Yu over to Jia Xu personally.
Soon, the housekeeper came in with two young men.
"Father"
"uncle "
"This is Lord Jia, the staff member of the General of the Cavalry."
Jia Xu looked at the two young men with great interest. The handsome one was Zhou Gongjin, and the other one with extraordinary bravery seemed to be Sun Jian's son Sun Ce, also a talented person whose age had been corrected.
"You should know why I came here. Is there anything you want to say?"
Zhou Yu frowned, not expecting that he would be exposed so quickly.
"I am Zhou Gongjin of Jiangdong, this is my sworn brother Sun Bofu." Zhou Yu introduced himself with a normal look on his face, as if he was not the one who committed the crime.
"Liangzhou Jia Wenhe"
Jia Xu didn't care. As Zhou Yu was a person with spiritual talent, he could give him this respect.
"I'll give you one stick of incense to convince me, and you can survive. You should know what your spiritual gift means."
Jia Xu stared at Zhou Yu for a while, then spoke slowly.
Sun Ce was furious when he heard this and wanted to kill his brothers in front of him, totally disregarding him.
Before Sun Ce could make a move, Wang Yue appeared behind Sun Ce and sealed Sun Ce's internal energy with one move, then returned to Jia Xu's side again.
"Young man, you have good strength, but unfortunately you are still a little bit behind me."
Wang Yue was also a little surprised. With his internal energy leaving his body at half a step, his strength was actually almost the same as Ma Chao's. What a scary young man.
"Well, Zhou Gongjin, I forgot to introduce you, this is the world's number one swordsman, Wang Yue."
Zhou Yu's expression finally began to become serious. He thought that no one could discover what he had done secretly, but now someone came to his door and it seemed that this would not end well.
"Please ask Lord Jia to introduce the General of the Cavalry to me."
After just a moment of hesitation, Zhou Yu made the most correct choice.
He did not try to activate his spiritual talent. He understood that the person who knew that he had this ability and still came to him must be a wise man who had made all the preparations.
I'm afraid that the next second after Jia Xu is tricked out, the Zhou family will be in danger of being wiped out.
Jia Xu was very satisfied with Zhou Yu's answer. If he had not wanted to recruit Zhou Yu for Guo Hao, it would have been the Yulin Guards who came today.
Openly instigating fights among high-ranking officials in the imperial court is simply lawless and disruptive to the imperial court. It would not be excessive to execute the entire nine generations of the family.
Although it was the result of their own ulterior motives, Zhou Yu only added a little push.
But since the handle is in Jia Xu's hands, naturally whatever Jia Xu says is what matters.
Today, except for Zhou Yu who is willing to surrender, no matter what Zhou Yu says, he will surely die.
It is really too terrible to lower one's IQ. If Zhou Yu was not one of his own, it would be really difficult for him to survive. Jia Xu did not want Guo Hao or even himself to become a different person one day and die unclearly.
"Sun Bofu, do you want to go with Zhou Yu to meet the General of Cavalry?" Jia Xu extended an olive branch.
Zhou Yu's face turned pale. He didn't expect to pull his brother into the water.
But on second thought, Zhou Yu's face looked a little better. The General of Cavalry was a good candidate for surrender. Moreover, if Sun Ce didn't go with him, it would be easy for him to act recklessly. With him around, he could help out.
