After hearing this suggestion, Zhao Yu nodded repeatedly.

"Mr. Zheng makes sense. In this way, even if the civil servants are unwilling to do so, they will definitely agree to cooperate with me for their own wealth and life."

On the same day, Zhao Yu wrote a letter, ordering Zheng Dong to go to Moke City in person.

Zheng Dong went with a letter.

But after he arrived at Moke City, the scene in front of him shocked him.

The Moke City, which was famous for its prosperity in the past, became a deserted city in the blink of an eye. The people here either fled or died. Those who could not escape were numb and allowed to be trampled and humiliated by the mountains.

Zheng Dong's mood suddenly became heavier, and his steps seemed to be injected with lead and mercury, walking step by step.

Soon, he was seen by the Shanyue Army wandering on the street. They surrounded him, grabbed Zheng Dong, looked at him with a sneer, and said, "Looking at how well you dressed, you should be a rich man. If you want to survive, take out all the valuable things on you. If you dare to hide a little, the man will definitely cut off your brain."

Zheng Dong looked at their vulgar appearance and turned his face dark.

"I am Zheng Dong, a general Zhao Yu's adviser. This time I came here to discuss matters with General Zhao's orders. You should lead me to see your king."

When the Shanyue Army heard that it was sent by Zhao Yu, they did not dare to take action.

"Okay, come with us to meet our king."

A Shanyue soldier led the way in front, and Zheng Dong followed him to Tianlong Academy in Moke City.

Zheng Dong glanced at this academy that had been around for nearly a hundred years. At that time, there were many talents here. The collection of books was the largest library except the capital. It was a classic book that has been passed down from the Han area for a hundred years. It has everything here.

Now all these classical books worth a thousand gold coins have been discarded on the ground and allowed to be trampled by the Shanyue army, and even used to make fire.

Zheng Dong is also a person who reads the books of sages. Seeing such scenes, he naturally felt uncomfortable.

But now these are no longer what he can control, and you can sigh silently in your heart.

The soldier led him to the main hall of the academy. The King of the left guard sat in the seat of the Master, holding a book of "The Analects of Confucius" in his hand, laughing while reading: "This old master is too pedantic and wants benevolence, righteousness and morality. But how many people with benevolence, righteousness and morality in this world can have a good ending, and live happily according to what they think in their hearts. Even if they don't have a good ending in the future, at least there are no regrets in this life."

When Zheng Dong heard the left guard belittle his master so much, his face changed slightly. Although he was very unhappy, he still endured it.

"King, Zhao Yu sent someone to find you."

The soldiers reported to King David on the left.

The left guard looked up, glanced at Zheng Dong, and smiled coldly: "Another scholar came. Recently, this king captured a thousand scholars in this Moke City. I want them to serve this king. But I don't know if the brains of these scholars are broken. It's really stupid to rather die than serve this king. You are also a scholar. Can you tell this king why they are unwilling to serve this king?"

Zheng Dong knew in his heart that even a cruel person like the King of Left Guard would not be willing to serve him. However, due to Zhao Yu's kindness of knowing his grace, he had no choice but to plan for him and come to negotiate with the King of Left Guard in person.

"This villain doesn't know."

"You don't know? You don't want to say it, are you?"

The left guard smiled slightly, but Zheng Dong's back was sweating coldly.

He saw a trace of murderous aura and a trace of mockery in the eyes of the left guard.

The atmosphere suddenly became serious, and time seemed to stop at this moment.

"Since you don't know, I won't force you. Tell me, what did Zhao Yu ask you to come here to do?"

The left guard smiled contemptuously.

Zheng Dong was unwilling to say that he didn't know what was going on in his heart.

These scholars never looked down upon him as a barbarian chief. Working with him would lose their identity as a student. On the contrary, against him, you can not only gain reputation but also respect.

But the King of the Left Guard is not a person with open mind. For him, anyone who is unwilling to cooperate with him and who looks down on them has only one way, and that is death!

Zheng Dong bowed: "My General Zhao Yu is about to succeed to the throne, but there are still many civil servants in the capital who are unwilling to surrender, so General Zhao wants to ask the king for help. Pretend to attack Nanyue, which will cause a sense of crisis in Nanyue, so that my general can protect Nanyue and succeed to the throne smoothly."

As soon as these words came out, the left guard laughed and shook his head again.

"I thought Zhao Yu had something important and important to send you here. It turned out to be such a small matter. The civil servants are unwilling to surrender, so it's easy to deal with. Isn't it over to kill them? Why are you so troublesome?"

"Oh, I understand. Zhao Yu wants to ascend the throne to the King of Nanyue, but he wants not to leave a bad reputation. As a wise monarch in times of danger, this move is very high, but should he give me some benefits?"

The King of the left guard stared at Zheng Dong, his eyes full of mockery.

Zheng Dong was silent. They did not expect this step before coming.

"Why don't you talk?"

"King, General Zhao has reached an agreement with you before. You will help him ascend the throne as King of Nanyue. He will give you the land in the west, as well as several iron ore and copper ore. Now you have obtained the land in the western region, and you can also go and mine this copper ore and iron ore nearby. It can be said that General Zhao has met your conditions, but you have not helped him ascend the throne yet. Now you have to make the conditions again, which seems unreasonable."

As soon as these words came out, the left guard's face turned dark.

The deployment behind him stood up at this time and pointed at Zheng Dong.

"What's your thing? You dare to bargain with our king!"

"That's right, let alone you, even if Zhao Yu comes in person, he will not dare to talk to my king like this."

"Zhao Yu wants our king to help, so he shows some sincerity. If not, you should go whatever you should do. Our Shanyue is not just making clothes for others in vain."

Zheng Dong's face became very ugly, Shan Yue was really greedy!

Seeing that the time was almost right, the King of the left guard waved his hand to stop arguing, staring at Zheng Dong and said, "You heard it very clearly just now. Without sincerity, we will not send troops. So you can go back and tell Zhao Yu now, is he going to be the King of Nanyue or to go against us?"

Zheng Dong frowned, and after a long time he sighed and said, "I dare to ask the king, what sincerity do you want to help us General Zhao?"
