Yan Xing came in from outside. The two hugged each other quickly separated.
Yan Xing rarely joked: "I didn't bother you, did I?"
Zhao Yun smiled and said sincerely: "General Yan, thanks to you, we can get out of trouble!" Yan Xing said calmly: "General, don't be polite! In fact, you don't have to thank me. I'm just carrying out your Majesty's orders!"
Zhao Yun said seriously: "No matter what, I owe General Yan! General Yan, are there any rumors outside?"
Yan Xing looked at Zhao Yun, then looked at Julia who stood quietly behind him, and smiled and said, "It has spread outside now. His Majesty the Emperor of the Roman Empire would rather follow an enemy general!"
Zhao Yun and Zhu Liya looked at each other, and everything was indifferent.
Yan Xingdao: "In addition, I also heard a rumor that the imperial army won a big victory in the east! The main force of the 300,000 Roman army was annihilated! At present, the entire Roman Empire is in panic!"
Zhao Yun couldn't help but feel happy. Seeing that Zhu Liya had a complicated look on her face, she tightly held her palm. Zhu Liya's chaotic mood couldn't help but calm down and looked back at Zhao Yun with affectionateness.
Yan Xing joked: "Should I go out?"
Zhu Liya has a beautiful face and Zhao Yun laughs.
His eyes turned to the Roman intelligence department. Since Seth seized power, the intelligence department's attitude has been very ambiguous. He seemed to recognize Seth's status, but he did not cooperate with Seth's actions against Julia, Zhao Yun and others. This is also the main reason why Seth has not discovered Julia's whereabouts so far. However, Yushenko's intelligence department is very cooperative in military intelligence targeting the Qin people.
Youxianke looked at the Feige's letter he had just received. After hesitating for a moment, he threw the letter into the fireplace beside him, and the letter turned into ashes in an instant.
The confidant on the side said with some concern: "Sir, if Seth knows, we will be in trouble!"
Yushenko glanced at the situation, "Unless someone reported it?"
The confidant was shocked and hurriedly said, "Sir, your orders are above everything else in my heart!"
Yushenko nodded with satisfaction.
The confidant said worriedly: "Sir, the power of the empire has fallen into Seth's hands now. If we cannot cooperate fully with him, he will definitely get rid of us!"
Yushenko frowned and said, "This is certain! But it is not entirely true that the power falls completely into Seth's hands! Many generals holding heavy troops will not submit to him, and Her Majesty's influence in the nobles and the people is not something he can replace overnight!"
The confidant smiled bitterly and said, "My lord's words are correct! But only Her Majesty the Queen can integrate these powers, and Her Majesty the Queen now only wants to be the wife of the general of Qin!"
Yushenko frowned.
At this time, another confidant came in to report: "Sir, the Prime Minister is here!"
Youshenke's eyes lit up, "Please hurry!"
The Prime Minister walked in quickly, and the two bowed to each other. Yushenko said to his confidant, "You go down!" The confidant responded and retreated.
The Prime Minister took the others away and asked anxiously: "Is there any news about Your Majesty?"
Yushenko nodded, "In a small fishing port in the south of Thrace Province, they are preparing to leave in a fleet sent by the Qin people!"
The prime minister asked again: "You didn't tell Seth about this news, did you?"
"Of course not! What qualifications does Seth have to let me report these things to him?" He looked contemptuous.
The Prime Minister nodded and said, "That's good! That's good!"
"Prime Minister, we should convince Your Majesty!"
The Prime Minister shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Although Your Majesty is a genius in both military and internal affairs, he has a very fatal weakness. Alas! This may be a common weakness of a woman! In her heart, love is much more important than country and responsibility! Once the two conflicts, she will choose the former without hesitation!"
Yushenke University was disappointed, "So, don't you have to admit Seth's status?"
The Prime Minister said firmly: "No! Seth is not qualified to lead Rome!"
Yushenko asked in confusion: "Then you said just now~~?"
The prime minister asked, "What if His Majesty's love does not conflict with her responsibilities?"
Youshenko was stunned, "Is this possible?" He thought this idea was too ridiculous.
The Prime Minister said confidently: "It's not impossible! But it's too early to say this now. Let's contact Your Majesty again after His Majesty escapes! Now we have three things to do, one, stabilize Seth, two, ask for peace from the Qin people, and three, secretly contact the power to support Your Majesty!"
Youshenko frowned and said, "The first point is okay, but the last two points are probably not easy! If the Qin people regard our peace as weak, they are afraid that the situation will be worse!"
Thomas shook his head and said with great certainty: "No! The Qin people now have no energy to maintain this hasty battle!"
Youshenko asked in confusion: "Since that's the case, why should we seek peace? Isn't this a humiliation?"
Thomas explained: "That's right! If there is no clear ceasefire message, the forces of all parties are dissatisfied with Seth, but they will not cooperate with us. After all, in front of the enemy, internal struggle is very inappropriate and despised! So only by reaching a peace agreement with the Qin people can we proceed to the next step!"
Yushenko nodded clearly, "Contact the power of Seth, how can we determine the other person's true thoughts?"
Thomas smiled and said, "It depends on you!"
Youshenko was stunned and laughed, "That's right! I did this!"
Thomas frowned and said, "The only general who can fully believe in it is Yusufu!"
Yushenko nodded and said, "From the fact that he withdrew from the middle of the journey not long ago, he will definitely not obey Seth's command!"
Thomas nodded, "Although Yusuf is reckless, he is loyal to His Majesty, and he has 300,000 heavy troops in his hand! We should contact him first!"
Youshenko said: "Let me do this!"
Thomas nodded and said, "You and him are brothers, and it is indeed more suitable than others! Remember, you must remind him not to openly use the banner of opposing Seth at this time!"
Yushenko nodded and said, "I know how to do it!"
Zhao Yun, Julia and the others were anxiously waiting in this small town south of Thrace for a few days, and finally arrived at the fleet that left Jerusalem.
The group hurriedly boarded the fleet and headed east.
The sight turned to the Red Sea.
Gan Ning and Zhou Tai originally planned to launch a surprise attack on the Roman naval base, but the sudden hurricane forced the plan to stand. After the hurricane, they were ordered to stop the action from Luoyang. This made the two very depressed.
Ma Chao looked at the person in front of him and was stunned, "Zijing, why are you here?" It turned out that the person coming in was Lu Su. He actually felt Assyria thousands of miles away from Luoyang!
Lu Su half-jokingly said, "If I don't come again, I'm afraid someone will go hungry!"
Ma Chao asked in surprise: "Did Zijing come from placing grain?"
Lu Su nodded and sighed, "Eight million loads of food and grass! This is all the food and grass that can be raised in the Central Plains at present! I have transported it to you!"
Ma Chao was very happy, "That's great! With these food and grass, we can support until the harvest next year!"
Lu Su nodded and said seriously: "Meng Qi, you must take advantage of the fact that there is no war and you must cultivate fertile fields as much as possible!"
Ma Chao nodded.
Lu Su smiled and said, "I have brought you all the technicians who are best at water conservancy and military farming in the Wuhan Institute!"
"Great! Where are they now?"
“Rest below!”
"That's it! Well, then wait until they have a rest!"
Lu Su nodded, looked around and asked, "Why are there only Meng Qi?"
Ma Chao explained: "Bo Fu went to pick up the Roman envoys, and the rest of the generals were in their own defense zone!"
"messenger?"
"Oh, that's right! The Romans sent their prime minister as the special envoy for peace!" He smiled proudly, "They are afraid that we will continue to attack!"
Lu Su nodded and asked, "Have you reported this to Your Majesty?"
"That's sure! The relevant documents were issued two days ago! Zijing, let's go and see the food!" Ma Chao couldn't wait to say authentically.
In the evening of that day, Sun Ce brought Thomas, the Romans's summoner, to return to the barracks. As soon as he returned to the barracks, an officer reported to Sun Ce: "General, Lord Lu Su is here!" Sun Ce nodded. After arranging Thomas and his group, he immediately came to the tent. Lu Su was talking to Ma Chao in this matter.
"Zi Jing!"
Lu Su quickly came up and said excitedly: "God General, are you okay?"
Sun Ce nodded, patted Lu Su's arm, and laughed and said, "I will definitely not return drunk tonight!"
Lu Su asked with a smile: "I heard that the messenger of Rome is here?"
Only then did Sun Ce think of the Roman envoy and slapped his head, "I almost forgot him! It seems that I can't drink tonight!" It looked very regretful.
Lu Su smiled.
Sun Ce asked, "Zijing, don't you know how good my little sister has been recently?"
Lu Su smiled, "Of course! You don't know how much Your Majesty is to favor Concubine Gong!"
Sun Ce nodded and smiled bitterly: "Sometimes I really worry that she will make His Majesty angry!"
Lu Su, Ma Chao laughed, and Ma Chao said with a smile: "I heard that Ling Mei often wants to compete with Your Majesty!"
Sun Ce shook his head with a wry smile.
Lu Su said: "Actually, Bo Fu doesn't have to worry at all! Although Concubine Gong is like a fire, she is also a person who knows the general, and His Majesty also loves her very much!
Sun Ce nodded and waved his hand in annoyance, "Okay! I won't say it anymore!"
