Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 317 Scapegoat

"Ling Tong has offended you a lot before. I heard that Governor Fu has a large number of people. Tong salutes you as an apology."

After Ling Tong finished speaking, he picked up the wine jar and drank it. He looked at Fu Shiren next to him in a daze. The guy in Ruxuwu didn't look good. Could it be that he is overwhelmed by his own charm now?Or what did Sun Quan tell them?

Fu Shiren looked at Lu Meng in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, the other party said forcefully: "How can Governor Fu live up to the sincerity of the public achievement? Is he still holding grudges?"

"Uh, how come... okay." Fu Shiren bit the bullet and picked up the wine jar.

Ling Tong was in the prime of life, and his alcohol capacity was among the best in Jiangdong. Fu Shiren became dizzy after drinking a pot, and then Ling Tong continued to fight with wine, and Fu Shiren soon became very drunk.

After Fu Shiren was drunk, Lu Meng took away the army transfer token from him, and easily controlled Jiangxia's defenders. Then he sent someone to report to Chaisang, and at the same time took over Jiangxia's city defense. Because he acted secretly and quickly, the whole process seemed smooth And natural.

After Fu Shiren woke up, he found that he was in the familiar prefect's mansion. Lu Meng was sitting in his seat very presumptuously. He was about to get angry but found that his hands were tied.

Fu Shiren broke out in a cold sweat instantly, wondering what the hell is going on?
"General Lu, what do you mean?" Fu Shiren struggled to stand up.

Before he could stand still after he finished speaking, Fu Shiren felt the strong pressure on his shoulders, and then he was pressed to the ground abruptly. He turned his head and found that it was Ling Tong who was fighting with him yesterday.

It could be seen that Ling Tong's complexion was very bad, and it was not the expression of letting go of the past with him. Fu Shiren felt a chill in his heart and knew that something was wrong, and he must have been tricked by Lu Meng.

Is Jiang Xia lost just like that?When Fu Shiren was still considering how to explain, Lu Meng's deep voice came: "Fu Dudu is a hospitable person, he likes to send wine and meat to his allies, he is really a model of a good neighbor."

"Lu Meng, do you still know that we are allies? Do you know that Sun Cheqi is doing this? General Guan will not spare you." Fu Shiren gritted his teeth.

Lu Meng sneered: "Really? Fu Shiren poisoned Zhou Dudu to death, so what should the lord do if he knows? Guan Yunchang can't protect you, can he?"

Fu Shiren was sweating profusely. Lu Meng was trying to kill himself. He was like a goat with his hands and feet bound, spinning and struggling frantically on the ground: "Lu Meng, you are spraying people with blood. I, Fu Shiren, have never done it. Zhou Dudu's death cannot be done. rely on me, ah"

Ling Tongtong kicked Fu Shiren's abdomen, and Fu Shiren stopped pleading in pain.

Lu Meng tapped on the case and said meaningfully: "Is it true that you must admit everything you did, or the whole Jiangxia will be buried with you, including Fu Dudu's wife and children. I am very good at Tu Jiangxia."

Fu Shiren's eyes were bloodshot. Sun Quan slaughtered Jiang Xia twice. He then cursed: "Traitor, why are you plotting against me? I have no grievances or enmity with you."

Lu Meng walked up to Fu Shiren and knelt down, slapped his face with his hand and said contemptuously: "Maybe it's because you are not smart enough, now you have no choice, I will give you a little time to think about it, otherwise I will start with your son. "

Fu Shiren swallowed his saliva, knowing that he was going to die this time, he just closed his eyes and sneered presumptuously: "What's the point of admitting it? You charged me with such a heinous crime, and Jiangdong's officials still flayed me alive? It's better to die for the whole of it."

"As long as Fu Dudu is obedient, not only will he not die, but he will also be rich and prosperous." Lu Meng continued to explain.

Fu Shiren opened his eyes, and stared at Lu Meng sideways, "Could it be that you are entertaining me? Can you still live after poisoning the governor of Jiangdong?"

Lu Meng put his hands behind his back, looked out of the door and replied in a deep voice: "Fu Shiren was ordered by Liu Bei to murder the governor of Zhou with poisoned wine in the name of a labor force. Now he regrets and dedicates Jiangxia to Jiangdong to make amends. My lord is grateful for your sincerity. Treat it kindly."

Fu Shiren shook his head quickly: "You want me to frame the lord, this is absolutely impossible, even if I die, I will not agree."

Lu Meng frowned, and continued to suggest: "Then use Guan Yu's name."

Guan Yu has always been majestic and domineering, and Fu Shiren is trembling under his subordinates. Although he is sometimes afraid of his power, who can tell what will happen in the future, he still shook his head and said: "General Guan and the lord are brothers. Claiming to be jealous of the talent of Zhou Dudu, refused to lend me back in Chibi because of hatred?"

Seeing that the other party had softened, Lu Meng motioned Ling Tong to help Fu Shiren up, then pinched his mustache and said leisurely, "If you don't take two scapegoats, how can my lord keep you? You are a vegetarian when you are an official of Jiangdong?"

Fu Shiren rolled his eyes, realizing that Lu Meng was right, but who was he dragged into the water?He searched for a scapegoat in his mind, and finally said with an idea: "How about Liao Li, the prefect of Changsha? This man mocked General Lu in the Yangtze River News, and he just took this opportunity to get rid of him."

Lu Meng nodded with satisfaction, "Fu Dudu is still very savvy, but Liao Li doesn't seem to be qualified enough, you have to find a decent scapegoat."

Fu Shiren was provoked by Lu Meng, and then blurted out: "What about Lan Ziyu, the prefect of Lingling, and he is the one who runs the Changjiang Daily, and he also cheated Lu Ziheng's property."

Lu Meng was shocked when he heard this, and thought that it would be more convincing to send troops to Lingling like this, and even Lu Fan found a reason to attack from the south, so you Fu Shiren, this is a good way to plant blackmail.

"Is this okay?" Fu Shiren asked.

Lu Meng nodded with a smile: "Lan Tian was jealous of Gong Jin's talent, so he sent Liao Li to send a message to Governor Fu, asking you to poison the Governor in Jiangxia."

"Then me now?" Fu Shiren heaved a sigh of relief.

"First wrong Dudu Fu for two days, and then make arrangements when my lord arrives in Jiangxia." Lu Meng signaled Ling Tong to take Fu Shiren into custody.

Two days later, Sun Quan's fleet arrived at Jiangxia Wharf. Because Lu Su was training against the cold February wind, he was also lucky enough to catch the cold, and fell asleep all the time after boarding the ship.

Lu Su walked out of the cabin in a daze, and found that the scene in front of him was very familiar. Why did tens of thousands of troops come to Jiangxia?

"My lord, what's going on? Isn't it going to attack Wancheng?" Lu Su looked blank.

Sun Quan turned around and called Lu Su to his side, saying: "The murder of Gongjin in the past has been investigated, and now the witnesses are here in Jiangxia City. Let's go and interrogate them together."

"Didn't it mean that the arrow sores broke out?" Lu Su asked curiously.

"The situation is very complicated, we will know at the first trial." Sun Quan shook his head.

Lu Su followed Sun Quan with question marks all over his face, he completely forgot about the attack on Wancheng, walked into the Jiangxia prefect's mansion and found Lu Meng, Ling Tong and Fu Shiren, he had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

When Fu Shiren finished explaining according to Lu Meng's words, Lu Su felt that his world had collapsed.

Seeing the anger on the faces of the generals, Sun Quan said with a serious face: "Gongjin Wushuang, a national scholar, is my pillar of the sky in Jiangdong. It is really infuriating to be murdered by envy. Although General Fu is an accomplice, he is not the mastermind. I can repent and offer the city to apologize, and I decide to absolve him of the crime and not pursue it."

Sun Quan's words were in a falling tone, and there were whispers in the hall.

"However, Lan Tian, ​​the mastermind, and Liao Li, the accomplice, are still alive. Gongjin must avenge his great vengeance. He will send troops to Jiangling today to ask Guan Yu for questioning." Sun Quan said sonorously.

"Wei." All the generals in the hall were excited.

Seeing this, Lu Su hurriedly stopped him, "My lord, you can't. Now that the Sun and Liu are in an alliance, we are attacking each other. I'm afraid Cao will take advantage of it, and General Guan doesn't know about it."

Sun Quan nodded solemnly: "Zijing's reminder is right. Immediately order Cheng Gong (Cheng Pu) to send troops from Jianchang, Ziheng (Lu Fan) to send troops from Cangwu, and Ziqi (Wei Jing) to send troops from the South China Sea. Join forces in Lingling to attack Lantian."
