Sun Quan smiled wryly, and looked at the loyal general Zhao Yun: "It wasn't that Zilong came in time, I am already a bone of bones!"

"It is said that Zhao Zilong is His Majesty's most loyal general, but I can't see it all. I'm afraid he is still His Majesty's blessed general!"

Xun Yu squinted at Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun looked indifferent, like an iron tower, with a pair of sharp eyes scanning the four directions, very focused on safety.

"Of course!"

Sun Quan nodded: "He is my lucky general, with Zilong around, God can't bear my life!"

"But since His Majesty is alive, why..."

"By the time we were able to return from the sea, the news had already spread, so I will be wrong and I will be wrong. I just have to give it a try. What would the Great Wu court be like without Sun Zhongmou!" Sun Quan said frankly.

"Your Majesty, you know how much damage you have caused the Great Wu court!" Xun Yu's eyes were gloomy.

This time the imperial court must be in frequent turmoil.

Even if Sun Quan cleans up the mess in the end, it is inevitable that people's heads will roll and blood will flow into rivers under the purge.

"Know!"

Sun Quan said indifferently: "But if you don't do it, you can do it, or I will issue a crime against myself!"

Guilty edict.

This is a form of the emperor admitting his mistakes.

"Hehe!" Xun Yu laughed, ironically.

"Well, I was really wrong. I thought everything was under control, but some people still exceeded my expectations, which caught me by surprise!" Sun Quan sighed and said helplessly.

"You underestimate Sun Bofu!" Xun Yu hit the nail on the head.

"En!" Sun Quan nodded without denying it.

He underestimated Sun Ce too much. He thought that it would be difficult for Sun Ce to ascend the throne in a short period of time due to the trouble. At most, he would seize the power of the court in the name of the regent.

But the news fed back from the Central Plains made him a little helpless.

"Then what are you going to do now?" Xun Yu asked.

"The situation in Jinling City has been suppressed by Sun Bofu. Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Cheng Pu and the others have clearly supported Sun Bofu. From this point of view, Sun Bofu's ascension to the throne is inevitable!"

Sun Quan said calmly: "In that case, I will fulfill him!"

"Pity!"

Xun Yu glanced at Sun Quan, and suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

"This is the path he chose!"

"Your Majesty, in fact, Sun Bofu did nothing wrong. Maybe he has some selfish intentions, but facing the current situation, I think he is more trying to stabilize the court situation, and this situation was created by His Majesty..."

"He's right, that means I was wrong, but I can't be wrong, so he must be wrong!"

Sun Quan went around in a circle, but he made his confession very clear.

"The cabinet's military office must be cleaned up!" Xun Yu sighed. What Sun Quan said was the truth. There are some things that the emperor cannot be wrong.

"Cleaning is inevitable!"

Sun Quan nodded. There were too many people on Sun Ce's side. Cleaning up was a must-do thing. Pulling out the radish with the hole in it would inevitably lead to an earthquake in the court.

As he said that, Sun Quan stared at Xun Yu's two white hairs. The old Wang Zuozhi was a little old, but his eyes were still burning like fire: "Wen Ruo, it seems that you have done a good job in the west all these years. !"

"Thanks to Your Majesty's blessing, there is still a place to show your talents!" Xun Yu smiled.

These years in the west, he worked hard and did not dare to relax for a moment. He felt very satisfied watching the six states in the west begin to change from poor and miserable small villages and towns into bustling and prosperous cities under his command.

"Do you want to change places!"

Sun Quan asked.

"For example?" Hearing this, Xun Yu's eyes flickered brightly, and he looked at Sun Quan.

"For example, the cabinet!" Sun Quan replied calmly.

"cabinet?"

Xun Yu's heart moved. He knew that Sun Quan was planning to change the cabinet.

"Your Majesty believes in this humble minister. Your Majesty should know why this humble minister came out of the mountains to become an official. In fact, this humble minister..."

"You are a minister, I am a king, no matter what the reason is, this is now a fact!"

Sun Quan interrupted Xun Yu's words: "Trust does not happen overnight, but it is undeniable that your actions have already gained my initial trust. It is a pity that you are so talented that you cannot manage the overall situation but waste it in a local area. So I think you should return to the court center!"

"Since Your Majesty is willing to trust me, I will not be polite to Your Majesty!"

Xun Yu readily agreed.

People's hearts can change.

These years in the west, he has been trying to tell himself that he is only for Cao Zhang's forgiveness, only for the people of the west, not for the Great Wu court.

However, before he knew it, he suddenly integrated into the imperial court.

As a tour envoy to the west, he not only managed the six western states including Mesopotamia, but was also responsible for communicating with the imperial court. Without the full support of the imperial court, it would have been impossible for the Silk Road and the western border to have such rapid progress. develop.

Now he is already a member of the imperial court.

So he has the idea of ​​not wanting to be inferior to others. Talented people are proud. In the past, he was the prime minister of Cao Wei. He was under one person and above tens of thousands. But now, even a casual cabinet minister They can tell him what to do, and his aggrieved breath has been suppressed for too long.

Sun Quan was a little surprised. He thought it would take some talking, but he didn't expect Xun Yu to agree so smoothly.

"Don't look at me, I'm not a saint!"

Xun Yu said indifferently: "Of course I don't mean to be extraordinary. I didn't want to in the past because I couldn't live up to myself. Now that it's done, I naturally live up to Duke Ming and Cao Wei. Naturally, I don't need to be too concerned. As a prime minister, I manage a lot of people, and I don't really want people to point fingers in front of me. If there is a chance, I will naturally climb up, such as the position of the chief minister of the cabinet!"

"Hahaha!"

Sun Quan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly laughed: "Xun Wenruo, did you say that you are actually an arrogant and coquettish man!"

Xun Yu didn't quite understand this popular phrase from modern times, but it didn't hinder his superficial understanding of this sentence, and his face suddenly turned dark.
