Sun Quan got the answer he wanted from Mrs. Wu, and waited for his mother in the room for a while before leaving.

During the period when Sun Quan went to meet Mrs. Wu, Peng Tuo sent Xiang Lang to the post house and instructed Xiang Lang to be cautious, because Nanchang City was full of Sun Quan's eyeliner.

Xiang Lang nodded, and Peng Tuo left the post house and went back to report to Sun Quan.

After Peng took off, Xiang Lang lay alone on the couch, full of tasks given to him by Zhang Fei and Fa Zheng, when he met Sun Quan today, although Xiang Lang was nothing unusual on the surface, but in fact, when facing Sun Quan, his heart was still up and down.

At this time, Peng took off and left, and only Xiang Lang was left in the room, he let out a sigh of relief, and secretly thought: "I don't know what kind of choice Sun Quan will make......

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, the sound was very slight, but in Xiang Lang's ears, it was very clear, after all, being a thief is weak, and it is inevitable that he will be a little nervous.

Xiang Lang heard the knock on the door, immediately got up from the bed, walked to the edge of the bed, stretched out a short sharp knife under the pillow in his hand, quietly pulled it out, and asked, "Who?" ”

"Mr. Xiang, it's me, Chen Dao!" A faint voice came from outside the door.

Chen?

Who is Chen?

When Xiang Lang heard this name, he didn't even remember who it was for a while.

Chen Zhi saw that there was no reaction for a long time, so he immediately said: "Mr. Xiang, I am General Guan's subordinate!" ”

Xiang Lang walked to the door in disbelief, holding the handle of the short blade in his right hand. Backed behind his back. The left hand has a slit. Seeing a familiar face, he was stunned for a moment, and thought for a long time before remembering who the person standing in front of him was.

"Is that you?" When Xiang Lang saw Chen Zhi's face, he suddenly remembered that he had a relationship with Chen Zhi before, and he was impressed, but he didn't know who Chen Zhi was at that time

At this time, Chen Dao, dressed as a post guard in the post station, looked left and right, and after making sure that no one was following and monitoring, he entered Xiang Lang's room, and then quickly closed the door in Xiang Lang's room.

The two of them immediately talked to each other about the current situation, and Chen Zhi told Xiang Lang about the preparations to save Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei's families, but because there was no good way, they couldn't do it for a long time. For fear that he would startle the snake and anger Sun Quan. And then let them suffer the catastrophe of destruction.

Xiang Lang heard Chen Zhi say this, and found that his mission was actually the same as Chen Zhi's mission, although Guan Yu was dead, but Chen Zhi still insisted on his mission, which shows Chen Zhi's loyalty to Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei. So, Xiang Lang and Chen Zhi made a plan in the house, and Xiang Lang also said his mission, so that Chen Zhi could wait with peace of mind, and when he went to Sun Quan's mansion for a banquet this afternoon, there would be a result.

Chen Zhi nodded, not daring to stay here for a long time, for fear of revealing his feet, so he left in a hurry.

After Chen Zhi left, Xiang Lang began to calm down, carefully thinking about how he should deal with Sun Quan, and whether Sun Quan was willing to let Zhang Fei leave was still unknown. If Sun Quan is willing to let Zhang Fei leave, then this matter will be much easier, if Sun Quan is not willing to let Zhang Fei leave, then he can only think of another way.

Before I knew it, it was almost noon, and someone knocked on the door, saying that Sun Quan had sent him to invite Xiang Lang to the banquet. Xiang Lang then went out of the room, followed the man, left the post station, sat in a soft sedan chair, and went directly to the mansion.

In the hall of the palace, although it was full of people, these people were not guests, but musicians and dancers who were waiting for Xiang Lang's arrival, they stood neatly on both sides of the hall, Sun Quan sat in the middle, and there was a table in the hall, which was already full of all kinds of dishes, just waiting for him to arrive.

As soon as Xiang Lang arrived at the door of the hall, the guest standing at the edge of the hall shouted: "Mr. Xiang of Jingzhou has arrived!" ”

With this loud shout, Xiang Lang had not yet stepped into the hall when he heard someone in the hall shouting: "Play music!" ”

At the sound of the order, the musicians who had already prepared used a variety of instruments in their hands to play a beautiful piece of music, giving people a peaceful atmosphere.

Xiang Lang was also a little surprised when he saw this formation, he didn't expect Sun Quan to welcome him so grandly. He raised his legs, stepped over the high threshold, stepped into the hall of the mansion with one foot, took three steps forward, and then clasped his fists and said to Sun Quan: "Xiang Mou is just a village man, how can he afford such a grand banquet from the general?" ”

"Mr. Xiang is a famous man in Jingzhou, and he is also a person I respect, and when he treats a national soldier, in terms of etiquette, he naturally has to treat it with the courtesy of a national soldier." Sun Quan said.

"The word Guoshi, Xiang Moushi can't afford it, General Sun has an overreputation." Xiang Lang said modestly.

Sun Quan said: "In my eyes, Mr. Xiang is a national soldier, why should I treat him with the courtesy of a national scholar?" Mr. Xiang, you don't have to be modest, please take a seat! ”

Xiang Lang doesn't care so much, in short, in a word, Sun Quan values him too much. Xiang Lang was a little embarrassed, if he hadn't met Zhang Fei first, it is estimated that he would definitely be moved by Sun Quan's enthusiasm, and he would have helped him.

"General Xie!"

Xiang Lang sat down slowly, but seeing Sun Quan waving his hand, the dancing girl standing on the side began to dance to the music, Sun Quan personally held a bowl of tea, walked to Xiang Lang's side, and toasted Xiang Lang with a cup.

Xiang Lang was deeply moved, and Sun Quan treated him with the courtesy of a countryman, which made his heart shake a little. But in the end, Xiang Lang still came to his senses, and was not moved by the beautiful sound and those dancing beauties, and asked directly: "General, about Zhang Fei, I don't know what the general will decide?" ”

Sun Quan said: "I'm going to listen to Mr., since Zhang Fei wants to seek death, then let him fend for himself, I will allow him to attack Yizhou with the remnants." ”

Xiang Lang said: "General Gaojian! That way, I can go back to my life, and my family won't have to be blackmailed. However, the general did not do it thoroughly enough, although Zhang Fei was going to attack Yizhou, but his family was still in Nanchang, it was inevitable that he would have worries, and Zhang Fei also took the general as a backing, once the attack on Yizhou was blocked, he would inevitably retreat. In addition, when Zhang Fei attacked Yizhou, he would definitely use the banner of the general, so that he would be making enemies for the general. ”

Sun Quan hurriedly asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Xiang Lang said: "If Zhang Fei can capture Yizhou, it will naturally be a good thing, he will inevitably attack Zhang Yan and contain Zhang Yan's troops, which is not a good thing for Jiangdong." But if Zhang Fei can't attack Yizhou, it will be equivalent to setting up an enemy like Liu Zhang for the general, which will be a great disadvantage to the general. However, there are many passes in Yizhou, Shu Road is difficult to travel, the river is even more turbulent, and it is also difficult for ships to go upstream, Zhang Fei only has a few hundred people, just because he listened to Fazheng's slander, he wanted to hit the stone with an egg, which was simply impossible. Therefore, the general does not have to worry about Zhang Fei capturing Yizhou, but has to worry about the consequences of Zhang Fei not capturing Yizhou! ”

Sun Quan thought about it carefully, and felt that what Xiang Lang said was reasonable, so he asked, "Mr. Xiang is resourceful, don't you know what to do?" ”

Xiang Lang said: "There is a way, but I don't know if the general will use it!" ”

"As long as it is beneficial to my Jiangdong, I will adopt it, and I will ask Mr. for guidance!" Sun Quan said modestly.

Xiang Lang said: "Zhang Yanqin led the army south, not to pacify the entire south, but to capture the entire Jingzhou, with the help of Jingzhou's extensive water and land transportation, stationed the army here, and trained it to prepare for the future." And Guan Yu and Zhang Fei captured the four counties of Jingnan, which happened to anger Zhang Yan's sensitive area, so they sent troops to exterminate Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Now that Guan Yu is dead in battle, Zhang Fei is defeated, and Zhang Yan is offering a reward of thousands of dollars to buy Zhang Fei's head, and he will also add officials to the knighthood, Zhang Yan does this for only one purpose, that is, to Zhang Fei's death. In other words, now Zhang Yan's goal is only Zhang Fei, if he wants to attack Jiangdong, he must cross the Yangtze River, but the Jiangdong naval army is invincible in the hands of Zhou Yudu, which is what Zhang Yan taboos. That's why Zhang Yan gathered a large army and trained a naval army in Dongting Lake to deal with Jiangdong. But the navy army is not something that can be trained overnight, and before the navy is not trained, Zhang Yan will never start a war, otherwise, he will definitely be the one who suffers. Coupled with the fact that Zhang Fei was not extinguished, Zhang Yan had some worries in the rear, and he would definitely not dare to start a war lightly. Therefore, Jiangdong still has some time to arrange defensive forces, and it would be extremely unwise for the general to meet Zhang Yan because of Zhang Fei's affairs now. It's better to send Zhang Fei's family members to Zhang Fei even together with Liu Bei and Guan Yu's family members, and then send him some money and food to fund his attack on Yizhou's baggage, and then allow him to attack Yizhou with high-ranking officials, so that he can rest assured that he will attack Yizhou, and after the matter is completed, he will be the lord of Yizhou, in this way, Zhang Fei will definitely be fooled, and when he attacks Yizhou, he will definitely use his own banner, so that the general will not be implicated again. ”

After listening to Xiang Lang's words, Sun Quan savored it carefully, but it was really such a courtesy. And what Xiang Lang said about Zhang Yan's practice of the navy in Dongting Lake was also something he heard early on, which is enough to prove that what Xiang Lang said is true.

Moreover, Zhang Fei kidnapped Xiang Lang's family and used it to blackmail, which also made Xiang Lang very unhappy, so he would be disrespectful and have the idea of putting Zhang Fei to death.

Sun Quan sneered, feeling that Xiang Lang was really a bit sinister and cunning, this was borrowing his knife to kill Zhang Fei. However, Sun Quan also wanted Zhang Fei to fend for himself, after all, Zhang Fei was not his loyal subordinate, and he would not share weal and woe with him at all, so he agreed with Xiang Lang's words and said directly to Xiang Lang: "What Mr. said is very true, I will let people do it, and do it according to Mr.'s wishes, let Zhang Fei fend for himself!"
