Liu Jue looked up at Lu Su and Zhuge Jin, just nodded, hummed lightly, and said,"You two, please sit down first and then talk."

Seeing Liu Jue's attitude, Lu Su and Zhuge Jin felt their hearts pounding. There was a sound.

The last time Lu Su came to Jiangxia, although Liu Jue's attitude was not good, it was not bad either.

But now, Liu Jue's attitude is so cold. You must know that as a host, no matter how displeased the other person is, he still has to exchange a few false words.

Liu Jue, on the other hand, didn't even bother to do superficial things.

Looking at the clothes he was wearing, they looked exactly like the clothes he wore at home. They looked very casual and not at all like what he would wear in a diplomatic occasion.

Compared with the last time we met, it was completely different.

Even though Lu Su was well-informed, this was the first time he encountered this kind of situation, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

But this time, Jiangdong is the weak side.

Moreover, he provoked a war first and asked Lu Xun to instigate the four counties of Jingnan to rebel. He wanted to swallow up the four counties of Jingnan in one go. This was completely to make others take the blame, and anyone else would be angry.

As a result, Jiangdong was defeated and had no choice but to lick his face and sue for peace. It was really his own fault and no one else was to blame.

Fortunately, Lu Su was not an ordinary person. After feeling uncomfortable for a moment, he sat down with Zhuge Jin.

Lu Su took the lead and raised his hand to Liu Jue and said:"Liu Jiangxia must have known Lu Su's purpose of coming. This time Wu Hou sincerely came to seek peace. I wonder what do you think?"

"Sincerely seeking peace? Liu

Jue sneered and said,"You told me the same thing last time when you came here. But in less than a year, Sun Quan did this to me. Do you really want to kill me?""

At this time, Qin Qiong, who was standing behind Liu Jue as a guard, also snorted heavily.

Lu Su and Zhuge Jin's expressions changed, and then they noticed Qin Qiong beside them. They were both shocked and naturally looked at It can be concluded that this man is extremely brave and is probably a rare warrior.

Lu Su had already prepared in his heart and said with cupped hands:"Liu Jiangxia, this time my lord Sun Quan raised an army mainly to recapture Chaisang. The reason why he sent Lu Xun to Jingnan , mainly to attract Jiangxia's troops. Liu Jiangxia should also know how important Chai Sang is to Jiangdong.

Liu Jue said with a smile:"Really?" Then you are quite smart! The 50,000 barbarians plus the armies of the four counties amount to nearly 100,000 troops. Unfortunately, they only attracted 15,000 of my troops. I am really disappointed with you."

Lu Su and Zhuge Jin laughed. To be honest, this was something they didn't expect. How could Liu Jue be so confident and dare to use 15,000 troops to face an army of nearly 100,000. If it were Sun Quan's place , , at least 30,000 troops must be mobilized to suppress it.

There is another point that makes the two of them puzzled. In the battle of Linxiang City, 80,000 rebels were routed thousands of miles away. How did Liu Jue do it? Is it the combat effectiveness of Jiangxia soldiers? So strong?

Lu Su coughed lightly and said:"Liu Jiangxia, the previous war has passed. This time Wu Hou sent me here mainly to make peace, and I beg you to stop your troops. Marquis Wu has prepared generous gifts, and I have brought them to Xiling, hoping that Liu Jiangxia can help him."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Jin took out the gift list and handed it over.

Liu Jue took the list and glanced at it, then put it down and said lightly:"You want to send me away with these? Do you know how much food I lost because of this battle?"

Seeing Liu Jue's attitude, Lu Su didn't care. He already knew that there would be no good things to eat without him this time.

Lu Su's expression did not change, he cupped his hands and said,"These alone are certainly not enough to show sincerity, so Wu Hou has decided to marry his sister to an adult, hoping that the two families will put aside their past grudges and become friends with Qin and Jin forever. Liu

Jue chuckled and said,"I didn't expect Sun Quan to be so willing. You know I'm already married." Lu

Su nodded and said:"This can show our lord's sincerity. Besides, there is Cao Cao in the north. If the two families continue to attack, it will only benefit Cao Cao." Liu

Jue said with a smile:"Since Sun Quan is so sincere, it would be too much for me not to agree, but...……"

Seeing Liu Jue smiling, Lu Su couldn't help but feel refreshed. This was a good change.

But when he heard the word 'but', he couldn't help but feel nervous, and quickly asked:"But what? I wonder what else Liu Jiangxia wants?"

He heard Liu Jue say:"Although we won this battle, But our losses are also huge. The amount of money and food consumed by tens of thousands of troops every day adds up to an astronomical figure. These losses still need to be calculated, right?"

Lu Su was a little angry and said:"Liu Jiangxia, didn't we just make an agreement? , Marquis Wu will marry his sister over, and we will make peace with each other, and we will not go to war again. How can you go back on your word?"

Liu Jue spread his hands and said,"Yes, Sun Quan will marry his sister to me, and I will agree to stop fighting and make peace. This is true. We agreed. But you haven't said how to compensate me for the loss of money and food."

Lu Su was so angry that he almost vomited blood and immediately wanted to walk away. How can a person be so shameless!

Lu Su remembered Sun Quan's order to suspend his relationship with Liu Jue at all costs. He immediately took a deep breath and said,"I wonder if Liu Jiangxia has any suggestions?"

Lu Su didn't even want to laugh, so he simply talked to Liu Jue. Still keeping a straight face

"Let me do the math first! Liu

Jue smiled slightly and said:"In the past two months, my army of tens of thousands has consumed hundreds of thousands of shi of food. But, since Sun Quan and I are about to become in-laws, I don't want him to give me hundreds of thousands." Shi Liang, just send me a hundred skilled shipwrights."

Liu Jue frowned and continued:"Of course, I don't want you to compensate us for the food, but you can't help but express that since Sun Quan's sister wants to marry me, then the dowry should be generous. It's so rich, just give me a few tens of thousands to marry a domestic slave."

"Also, many of our soldiers were injured in this battle, and some even had broken arms and legs. As the instigators, you should make some compensation, just give me five thousand gold."

Shameless! Extremely shameless! So shameless!

After hearing Liu Jue's words, the faces of Lu Su and Zhuge Jin were not only ugly, but also scary.

"correct!"Liu Jue suddenly clapped his hands, as if he remembered something.

Lu Su and Zhuge Jin's hearts trembled, and they stared at Liu Jue, wanting to beg him to stop talking.

Liu Jue pointed at Qin Qiong and said with a smile:" This is my general Qin Qiong. He is as brave as Lu Bu back then. It is a pity that such a fierce general does not have a mount worthy of him. I heard that Sun Quan has two horses named Jingfan and Kuaihang. I asked Sun Quan to give one as a gift. Come here, he and I will become family members soon, he won't be so stingy.

Qin Qiong's eyes lit up when he heard that, and he said quickly:"Thank you, young general.""

Lu Su and Zhuge Jin on the side almost vomited blood and fainted, feeling very uncomfortable.
