Chapter 868: Lian Heng Dongwu

Inside Sun's mausoleum, a figure stood in the wind, staring closely at the stone tablet in front of him, his face full of grief.

"Brother, sister-in-law."

This person was none other than Sun Quan, the new lord of Jiangdong, and after several months, the situation in Jiangdong was finally completely stabilized.

Although Sun Shao was Sun Ce's son and should inherit the position of the lord of Jiangdong, Sun Quan received the support of the whole of Jiangdong and eventually became the new lord of Jiangdong.

After Da Qiao killed himself, Sun Quan directly killed the chef in order to maintain Da Qiao's reputation, and then exterminated his clan.

In fact, Sun Quan knew in his heart that Da Qiao would never poison Sun Ce. Not only that, Sun Quan also ordered that Sun Ce and Da Qiao be buried together.

Sun Quan's approach was grateful to Xiao Qiao, and after Zhou Yu returned to Liyang, he also had a good impression of Sun Quan because of this matter.

Moreover, before Sun Ce was alive, he revealed his willingness to pass on the position of the lord of Jiangdong to Sun Quan after his death.

Zhou Yu also knew that it was a troubled time, and it was far better to let Sun Quan ascend to the throne than Sun Shao, so after careful consideration, he decided to support Sun Quan.

With Zhou Yu's support, coupled with Sun Quan's good friendship with Lu Su and Tai Shici, no one objected to him becoming the lord of Jiangdong.

Before that, there were still many people who supported Sun Shao, and after Sun Quan took the throne, these people were panicked and worried that Sun Quan would settle accounts after the autumn.

However, instead of retaliating against these people, Sun Quan repeatedly appeased them and entrusted them with heavy use.

Sun Quan's approach was quickly supported by those people, and from then on, Jiangdong immediately became a monolith.

Sun Quan also became friendly with the Jiangdong scholars, and after seeing Sun Quan succeeding to the throne, these scholars offered their loyalty one after another, and let the children of the clan come to serve under Sun Quan.

Among them, the most talented person is Lu Xun and Lu Boyan.

The summer sun was very scorching, but Sun Quan stood in front of the grave, oblivious to the red sun overhead.

The tomb has been erected for several months, and summer is the season when the vegetation is luxuriant, and a lot of grass has grown on the bare grave.

A touch of green decorates the grave, as if in the dead silence, suddenly has some vitality.

Sun Quan looked at the tombstone and thought of his heroic brother, and suddenly sighed deeply, his eyes full of gloom.

"Big Joe."

Putting his eyes on the other name on the tombstone, Sun Quan's heart suddenly twitched violently, and he felt an inexplicable pain.

When Sun Quan was very young, his father died, and Sun Ce and Da Qiao were very good to him.

Vaguely, Sun Quan still remembers when he was a child, when he was taken by Da Qiao to play, they ran, jumped, and laughed on the grass together.

In my mind, the beautiful and moving shadow cannot be erased no matter what.

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to be like this, it's really not necessary."

Sun Quan and Shuangquan clasped tightly together, remembering Da Qiao's voice and smile, and his eyes suddenly became a little moist.

"Quack!"

Sun Quan, who was falling into his memories, suddenly heard a crow chirping, and Sun Quan, who was not prepared at all, was suddenly startled in his heart, and a cold air rushed to his head from the soles of his feet.

"Come on, come on, come on!"

Sun Quan didn't know why, he felt a chill that penetrated deep into his bone marrow, and he actually yelled loudly.

"Lord, lord, what's wrong with you?"

Zhou Tai, who was guarding the door outside, was immediately shocked when he heard Sun Quan's shout and hurriedly ran in.

Behind him, the guards were also heavily armed and looked on guard.

Sun Ce had already been assassinated before his death, and if Sun Quan had any more accidents, it would definitely be a heavy blow to Jiangdong.

Sun Quan covered his chest with a look of horror, and when he saw Zhou Tai and the others, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Trying to calm down, Sun Quan said: "I miss my brother too much, I just seemed to see my brother walking towards me, and it happened that there was a crow chirping at that time. ”

"Because I was a little distracted, I was frightened."

When Zhou Tai heard this, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief, originally he thought that there were assassins lurking in the mausoleum.

Zhou Tai raised his head, looked at the crow hovering in the branch, and after snorting coldly, he immediately bent his bow and shot in the direction of the crow.

"Chirp!"

The arrow is like a meteor, with a chilling killing intent, unstoppable.

However, those crows seemed to have spirituality, and they actually deftly dodged the arrows, and then as if provocative, they croaked a few times at Zhou Tai and the others.

Seeing this, Zhou Tai couldn't help but be furious, and once again bent his bow and arrows to shoot at the crows, but the crows flew high and left the mausoleum with a croak.

Sun Quan looked at the departing crows, but his face was a little pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down his face.

Seeing this, Zhou Tai no longer thought about the crow, but asked Sun Quan with concern: "Lord, are you well?" ”

Sun Quan smiled reluctantly: "I was frightened in a trance just now, and the weather is too hot today, I have been here for a long time, and I have collapsed." ”

"When you get back, you'll be fine after a while."

After speaking, Sun Quan bowed to the tombstone, and then left with Zhou Tai and others.

Liyang City, in the past few days, has been chaotic again, because the new lord of Jiangdong, Sun Quan, can't afford to be sick.

Zhou Yu stood outside the door, his face full of anxiety.

If Sun Quan has three longs and two shorts, it will be a big blow to Jiangdong.

"Crunch!"

The door finally opened, the medical worker walked out of it, and Zhou Yu hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is the lord's health?" ”

After the medical worker saw Zhou Yu, he hurriedly saluted, and then said: "The lord is fine, he is just frightened, and there will be no major problem after resting for three or five days." ”

When Zhou Yu heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

But Zhou Yu was still a little puzzled, he called Zhou Tai and asked, "Youping, you have been guarding the lord's side, why did you let the lord be frightened?" ”

Zhou Tai couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, and said: "The lord misses his brother too much, so much so that he is in a trance, and he never thought that a few crows suddenly chirped loudly, and the lord was frightened. ”

Zhou Yu's eyes condensed slightly, his brows furrowed, and then he looked at the door.

"Stomp, stomp!"

At this moment, a rush of footsteps came, and Zhou Yu turned his head to look, only to find that it was the guard at the door.

"Why are you so flustered?"

The guard replied, "General Qiyu, Your Majesty has sent an envoy to meet the lord. ”

Zhou Yu's heart moved, waved his hand, and said, "Settle the angel first, and I'll go and report this matter to the lord." ”

After receiving the order, the guard bowed down and saluted Zhou Yu, and then turned to leave the place.

Zhou Yu stroked his beard, pushed the door and entered the house, and whispered to Sun Quan, who was lying on the hospital bed: "Lord, the angel has arrived in Liyang, and he has something to see." ”

Sun Quan, who had his eyes closed, hurriedly opened his eyes when he heard Zhou Yu's voice, then sat up and said, "What is the angel doing here?" ”

Zhou Yu thought for a long time and said, "If what I expected is correct, the angel must be here to win over the lord." It is very likely that the angel will bring an edict to canonize the lord as the new lord of Jiangdong. ”

Sun Quan was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, and the pain on his body seemed to dissipate in an instant, and he said excitedly: "Really? ”

Zhou Yu said: "If what I expected is correct, it should be so. ”

Sun Quan immediately got up and got dressed, and said to Zhou Yu: "The angel came to Jiangdong, how can he be lazy, I will go to meet the angel now." ”

Zhou Yu couldn't help but smile when he saw Sun Quan's body.

It's no wonder that Sun Quan is so excited, although Sun Ce has been crowned king, he has not been recognized by the Son of Heaven, after all, he is a little incorrect and unspeakable.

Moreover, Sun Quan inherited the foundation of Jiangdong, and after the imperial court, he has not waited for the news, and now the angel is coming to Jiangdong, which is definitely excellent news.

In the palace of King Wu, a scribe stroked his beard and carefully examined the layout of the palace.

"Stomp, stomp!"

Suddenly, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps, and the scribe hurriedly turned his head to look, only to find several people coming out of the house.

The first person has fine eyes, Fang Yi is big-mouthed, and his appearance is strange, which is different from ordinary people, and it is Sun Quan.

He was followed by two others, one handsome and heroic, and the other burly and imposing.

When the scribe saw the three of them, he immediately smiled and said to Sun Quan: "I look at Your Excellency's walking steps, and at first glance, you are very human, but Your Excellency is the new Lord of Jiangdong, Sun Zhongmou?" ”

Sun Quan looked at the scribe carefully, and saw that this person was magnificent, wearing a green shirt, and there was occasionally a wise light flashing in his eyes, and he was also secretly surprised.

He nodded and said, "Lone is the new lord of Jiangdong, I don't know what to call Mr." ”

When the scribe heard that this person was Sun Quan, he couldn't help bowing slightly, and said: "No, it's Jiyin Dong Zhao is also, according to the edict of the Son of Heaven, he came to Jiangdong to convey the holy will." ”

Dong Zhao originally served in Yizhou, but since the situation in Yizhou stabilized, Chen Xu transferred him to Chang'an, and this time he sent Dong Zhao out of Jiangdong.

Dong Zhao did not pay a big salute, but it is reasonable, because he represents not only Chen Xu, but also the Han family.

Although after the princes became kings, the majesty of the Han family was swept away, this country still belonged to the Han Dynasty after all, at least no prince dared to stand on his own openly.

Sun Quan was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "I never thought that Your Excellency was Dong Gongren, it's really rude." ”

Over the years, although Dong Zhao has not done anything earth-shattering, he has also made great contributions to Chen Xu.

Moreover, Dong Zhao was born in a famous family, and when he was loyal to Yuan Shao, he was already quite famous, and after serving in Guanzhong for so many years, even Sun Quan had heard of Dong Zhao's reputation.

After the two sides finished the ceremony, Sun Quan suddenly asked: "I don't know why Mr. came to Jiangdong on this trip?" ”

Sun Quan stared at Dong Zhao with blazing eyes, and there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Dong Zhao's face was solemn, and he said: "Guanzhong and Jiangdong have no grudges, and Wucheng Hou is also a person loyal to the Han family, and the King of Qin often praises Wucheng Hou as a hero. ”

"The previous Pang Shiyuan was two-faced and three-sworded, bewitching Wuchenghou to form an alliance with him, and later he offered Liu Xuande, wanting to take advantage of the Jiangdong army to attack Hangu Pass, and come to seize Jiangdong."

"Such a despicable villain, the general must not have a deep friendship with him."

Speaking of this, Dong Zhao looked at Sun Quan's face and continued: "General, just imagine, Guanzhong and Jiangdong are not adjacent. ”

"Even if there is a little border, they are not the primary object of each other's expansion, otherwise even if they have a large territory, they will only lengthen the defensive front."

"In public and private, neither Guanzhong nor Jiangdong should be on the other side."

Speaking of this, Dong Zhao paused, and then raised his voice: "If the general is willing to re-conclude an alliance with my lord, what he said to Wu Chenghou before is still valid. ”

Sun Quan asked with some confusion: "What's the matter?" ”

Dong Zhao said: "My lord is willing to help Jiangdong capture Jingzhou, and then destroy the remaining two princes, so as to share the world equally with Eastern Wu!" ”

Sun Quan's heart was shocked, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.

Dong Zhao still said: "Not only that, as long as Dongwu is willing to conclude an alliance with Guanzhong, my lord will definitely show the Son of Heaven and recognize the identity of the general King Wu." ”

Sun Quan was moved, but he didn't agree immediately, just set his eyes on Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu pondered for a long time, but said to Dong Zhao: "Sir, may he represent King Qin with full powers?" ”

Dong Zhao straightened his chest and said, "Before Zhao left, my lord had already explained that as long as I promised to come down, it would represent his will. ”

Zhou Yu was silent.

In today's situation in the world, although it is true that Chen Xu is powerful, the princes should work together to defeat Chen.

However, as Dong Zhao said, there is no conflict of interest between Eastern Wu and Guanzhong now, but Pang Tong wanted to capture Jiangdong at that time.

Moreover, Jingzhou is located in the upper reaches of Dongwu, occupying geographical advantages, and has always been a big problem for Dongwu.

Zhou Yu didn't understand the strategy of long-distance and close-range attack.

If it weren't for Pang Tong's original advice to Liu Bei, maybe Zhou Yu would have taken the overall situation into account, first weakened Chen Xu's strength, and then it would not be too late to fight with other Jingzhou.

However, that experience made Sun Ce and Zhou Yu feel a little afraid, if Liu Bei really adopted Pang Tong's strategy at that time, Dongwu might have ceased to exist.

In the final analysis, although the princes are all heroes in the world, after all, they all have selfish intentions.

Eastern Wu was originally inseparable from Jingzhou, and Sun Ce reneged on the covenant at the beginning, but he just thought that Chen Xu's strength was too strong.

However, Soochow's efforts were not only not rewarded, but they were almost stabbed in the back by their allies. Once the seeds of distrust are planted, it becomes difficult to mend the relationship.

Over the years, even though the two sides have maintained an alliance relationship, exchanges have not been frequent, but they have been wary of each other.

Therefore, when Dong Zhao once again proposed an alliance with Guanzhong, Zhou Yu and Sun Quan were a little shaken, and the fact that the Son of Heaven personally canonized King Wu was also a great temptation.

Dong Zhao saw that although the two of them were moved, they were still a little hesitant, and couldn't help but say again: "The two of you may not know, after the death of Wuchenghou, that Pang Shiyuan once again offered a plan to Liu Xuande and took advantage of Jiangdong's instability to capture Jiangdong. ”

"It's just because General Sun came out of nowhere and quickly controlled the situation in Jiangdong that Liu Xuande didn't dare to rashly raise troops. If you don't believe it, you can send scouts to Xiangyang to inquire. ”

When Sun Quan and Zhou Yu heard this, they were all discolored.
