Chapter 428 Su Yu: Kongming, brother-in-law will definitely treat your sister well!
"Ah Jun, your sister will definitely protect you."
Zhuge siblings' residence
Zhuge Qi said to Zhuge Jun, who was standing anxiously to the side.
After Wei Yan, along with Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, Zhang Yun, and others, took control of Xiangyang, the Zhuge siblings were imprisoned by Wei Yan's soldiers.
Of course, Wei Yan, as Jia Xu's apprentice, and knowing that Jia Xu and Su Yu were in cahoots and treacherous, knew Su Yu's nature very well.
Therefore, although the Zhuge siblings were imprisoned, they were not short of food, drink and other necessities.
Unlike Zhuge Liang, who followed Liu Bei and went hungry nine times out of three days.
If Zhou Yu hadn't sent a physician to treat him in time, he might have died prematurely.
"Sister, I'm a little adult now, I can protect you."
Zhuge Jun is two years older than Zhou Buyi, and is currently eleven years old.
Zhuge Qi smiled helplessly at what Zhuge Jun said.
She was a smart woman and knew how critical the situation was.
The eldest brother, Zhuge Jin, and the second brother, Zhuge Liang, were both people who opposed Cao Cao's camp.
She and her younger brother Zhuge Jun fell into Cao Cao's hands; what good could come of it?
To put it nicely, they are the family members of hostile forces.
To put it bluntly, even if they were executed outright, nobody would care.
suddenly.
Footsteps could be heard outside.
The guards stationed at the gate quickly saluted the visitors.
"Your subordinate greets Your Excellency, Commandant of the Guards."
Su Yu nodded, signaling the guards to leave, leaving only Xu Chu and Zhou Buyi, who had just joined the group.
"No doubt about it. I'm giving you a task: take care of Zhuge Jun."
"Leave it to the kid!"
Zhou Buyi has the potential to be a lackey.
On his first day as a member, he had already gradually become "Su-ified" and took on the task of talking Zhuge Jun on behalf of Su Yu.
As for Zhuge Qi, he was naturally entrusted to Su Yu to persuade and win him over.
"You are……?"
Upon seeing Su Yu and the other two enter through the door, Zhuge Qi shielded Zhuge Jun behind her.
"You're that Zhuge Liang's brother?"
Zhou Buyi pointed at Zhuge Jun and asked.
Zhuge Jun mustered his courage and glared at Zhou Buyi, but Zhou Buyi didn't care at all.
"To tell you the truth, your second brother doesn't want you anymore!"
"It's because your second brother doesn't want you that you've been forced into captivity!"
Zhou Buyi crossed his arms, perfectly portraying the villainous character.
Zhuge Jun, like a naive young Sasuke, ran over to Zhou Buyi and accused him:
"You bullshit!"
"My second brother is so smart, he would never abandon me! He must be trying to find a way to save me!"
Zhou Buyi clicked his tongue a few times, thinking to himself:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Kongming, but this is for your brother's own good. You certainly don't want him to become a fugitive like you, do you?"
"To prevent him from becoming like you, the only way is to make him hate you! To make him ashamed of you as his brother!"
Zhou Buyi's inner monologue is quite dramatic.
Soon, he sent guards to take Zhuge Jun away and persuade him privately in another place.
As for Zhuge Qi, she couldn't protect Zhuge Jun and sat helplessly on the bed to the side.
"Kongming's sister, you didn't want Kongming... Bah, it's all Zhou Buyi's fault for leading me astray."
Su Yu adjusted his wording and changed his approach.
"Don't worry, Kongming's sister. That young Kongming is arrogant and insists on following Liu Bei."
"Once I bring him back to my brother-in-law's house, I'll personally break his legs!"
Zhuge Qi's CPU is almost burning out.
Wait a minute... Kongming only had one older sister, right?
If you're his brother-in-law, then who am I?
Realizing the hidden meaning in Su Yu's words, Zhuge Qi's pretty face quickly turned red.
Upon closer reflection, it seems that the young master before me isn't entirely repulsive...
No! What am I thinking?
Zhuge Qi felt extremely confused.
On the one hand, as Zhuge Liang's sister, she felt that she should not have even the slightest affection for Su Yu.
But on the other hand.
It seems that Su Yu didn't offend her.
On the contrary, it was Zhuge Liang himself who wanted to oppose Cao Cao's camp.
Su Yu gave Zhuge Qi a hug, which made her lower her guard.
As for Xu Chu, who was just standing in the background, he had already wisely closed the door and was waiting at the entrance.
"Don't worry, Kongming's sister. As Kongming's brother-in-law, I will definitely teach that brat a lesson for you!"
Silence is better than sound here.
Poor Kongming, he had no idea that Su Yu had already stolen his entire home!
On the other side, Zhuge Jun was also completely fooled by Zhou Buyi.
It seems that defeating Onii-san (meaning older brother in Japanese) Zhuge Liang has become his target for revenge!
"Second brother, it's all your fault."
"As your brother, I will make you feel pain!"
From that moment on, Zhuge Jun worked hard and made great efforts to improve himself.
Because of his sister, he avoided being sent to the Minister's residence and became Zhou Buyi's follower.
Zhou Buyi is Su Yu's follower.
This is equivalent to Zhuge Jun being Su Yu's follower's follower.

Liangzhou
Wuwei
In the council chamber
Ma Teng coldly stared at the gray-robed scholar in front of him.
"Aren't you afraid that Ma will drag you away and chop you up?"
Faced with Ma Teng's threat, the gray-robed scholar laughed:
"Cut me off?"
"Hahaha, General Ma is quite the joker."
"After you kill me, who will help you deal with Cao Cao?"
"No way, no way, does anyone really think that surrendering to Cao Cao will exempt them from punishment?"
"General Ma, General Ma, should I say you're getting old, or just getting stupid?"
"you!"
Ma Teng flew into a rage, his eyes gleaming with murderous intent.
Chen Gong, however, remained completely calm and continued to express his views.
"General Ma claimed to be a descendant of General Fubo."
"Before the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao, in order to appease you, specifically acknowledged your identity as a descendant of General Fubo in the name of the imperial court."
"But don't forget, Cao Cao also acknowledged that Han Sui was the son-in-law of Duan Jiong, the Grand Commandant!"
"His purpose was to make the two of you check and balance each other, so that Liangzhou could not be unified."
"Humph!"
Ma Teng gave a cold snort.
He was naturally able to see through this open scheme.
After all, none of the warlords who managed to gain a foothold in the late Han Dynasty were easy to deal with.
People like Ma Teng and Han Sui, who were "evergreen rebels," were extremely clever.
But what good is understanding the open scheme?
Can Ma Teng and Han Sui truly cooperate?
Undermining each other and stabbing each other in the back is the rhythm these two should be in.
If these two could ever truly cooperate, it must be because their souls have been swapped; there is no other possibility.
"General Ma, how can a descendant of General Fubo spend his days loitering in a frontier place like Liangzhou?"
"Don't you want to see the prosperity of the Central Plains? Don't you want to possess the prosperity of the Central Plains for yourself?"
Chen Gong intensified his persuasive efforts.
Ma Teng remained unmoved.
Next year, he will be fifty-two, which is not young anymore, and he can no longer do all the fuss.
If Ma Teng could be offered amnesty by Cao Cao, it would undoubtedly be in his best interest.
but……
That's what Ma Teng thought, but some "filial sons" might not think that way!
