The Three Kingdoms

He and Sun Ce are blood brothers!

He always thought that he and Sun Ce were very close. He used to think that as long as he didn't fight, as long as he was willing to help Sun Ce for the rest of his life, they could be brothers for life.

However, Jiangdong became bigger and bigger, and many things changed. Zhou Yu's reminder, Zuo Ci's sudden appearance, Sun Jian's helpless choice, Li Nie's insistence on him... In his heart, there was already a trace of fear. Without self-confidence, this brotherhood can be maintained for a lifetime.

As the saying goes, there is no brotherhood in the emperor's family. In Jiangdong, the Sun family's is the emperor's family. How long can their brotherhood last?

Originally, no matter what other people said, he, Sun Quan, always insisted on one point. As long as he didn't fight, Sun Ce would trust him for the rest of his life, but what Sun Ce said yesterday made him feel cold.

Today's Sun Ce obviously has a estrangement from him.

In fact, there is a gap that cannot be said, but Sun Ce still believes in him. All I can say is that now that Sun Ce has grown up, he is beginning to regard him as Jiangdong's only opponent. Where there is ambition, there is always an enemy. Once there is a beginning, there will always be an end. , Sun Quan is no longer sure, this ending will be the ending he wants.

When they grow up, they all have something they want to pursue. People will change, Sun Ce will change, and he will also change.

"Great Governor!" At this time, Li Nie walked lightly into the silent lobby, looking at Sun Quan who was asleep.

"what's up?"

When Sun Quan heard this, he withdrew his disturbed mood, opened his eyes, and a cold light shot out from the amber crystal pupils.

"General Dispute is going on an expedition today. My lord summoned the general's mansion and sent him off ten miles away from the city. Everyone in the city is waiting and watching. Aren't you going?" Li Nie's eyes moved slightly, and a meaningful light flashed across his eyes .

"I want to go too, but I'm afraid that some people don't want to see me." Sun Quan smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said lightly: "Forget it, it doesn't matter whether I go or not, and there is no need to make trouble now. "

If Sun Ce hadn't looked for him yesterday, he would have gone to see him off happily today, but... now everyone in Jiangdong knows that Sun Jian chose Sun Ce, and everyone thinks he feels uncomfortable. Instead, it became a deliberate mess.

"Governor, my subordinates have something to report." Li Nie said in a low voice after pondering for a while.

"Say!"

"When the chief inspector was in Jiangdong Academy, General Dispute also went to the Jiangdong Lecture Hall a few days ago. He selected hundreds of elite martial arts students from the Lecture Hall and brought them into the army to participate in this Jiaozhou battle. war."

Since Li Nie chose Sun Quan and regarded Sun Quan as his lord, even if Sun Quan was unwilling, he would quietly stare at Sun Ce, and Sun Ce's every move was under his nose.

"Teaching martial arts hall? He wants to train his own team?" Sun Quan's eyes moved slightly. He understood that Sun Ce's move, Sun Ce was in charge of it alone, so he naturally wanted to cultivate his own system in the army.

Most of the students in the Jiangdong Lecture Hall are descendants of generals in the army. They are the cleanest and the easiest to cultivate to become their own loyalists.

"should be!"

A cold light flashed across Li Nie's eyes, and said: "Jiangdong Martial Arts Lecture Hall now has only a thousand students, but the elite students are no worse than Jiangdong Academy, and there are a few outstanding students who will definitely achieve great achievements in the future. Let him hold you in your arms, I'm afraid..."

"Afraid of what?"

Sun Quan said in a cold voice: "Li Nie, General Koni is always the first heir to Jiangdong, so don't watch too closely."

"But……"

"No, but, I'll just say it once. You heard me clearly. General Koni is my eldest brother, not my enemy, let alone Jiangdong's enemy. If you have this spare time, put your mind on Xuzhou."

Sun Quan's heart became a little manic, and an inexplicable coldness emerged from his body, which made people like Li Nie, who had experienced many battles, shiver a little.

"promise!"

Li Nie lowered his head and nodded respectfully, but he had another idea in his mind. He didn't mind instigating a few of Sun Ce's use of this group of people. He believed that Sun Quan and Sun Ce would one day fight on the battlefield.

"What else is there?"

Sun Quan knew that Li Nie might be doing it for his own good, but relatively speaking, he didn't want the conflict between him and Sun Ce to expand. If Jin Yiwei stared at Sun Ce too closely, Sun Ce would definitely resent him, and this resentment would only fall on him.

"Governor, there is one thing that has something to do with Jin Yiwei, that is, there have been several groups of ghost spies in our Jiangdong recently!" At this time, Li Nie's face became a little serious, and he began to talk about business.

Jinyiwei was established by Sun Quan, but Sun Quan has the knowledge beyond this era, and can grasp the general direction of development, but it lacks a little bit of ruthlessness. Now that Jinyiwei is in the hands of a ruthless person like Li Nie, it has developed even stronger. It only took half a month. In time, the interior was cleaned up abruptly for him, and several thousand households were recovered.

His method was simple and rude, directly in front of thousands of households, stripped their subordinates of their cocoons, and directly cleaned up a group of spies who had different intentions and were buried inside Jinyiwei by various forces.

Today's Li Nie has already established a firm foothold in Jinyiwei and is a sure second in command. Neither Mo Cong nor Han Tao can shake his position.

"Cao Cao's ghost soldier?" Sun Quan narrowed his eyes.

"Correct!"

Li Nie nodded, his eyes filled with coldness, and he reported in a low voice, "At present, the spies of ghost soldiers that we have discovered basically appear in the major families, and among the four major families in Jiangdong, there are ghost soldiers. Figure, if this matter is investigated clearly, it can be big or small."

"Cao Cao wants to use the Jiangdong family to cause our civil strife?" Sun Quan heard the words, a light flashed in his mind, and he pointed out Cao Cao's intentions sharply.

"should be!"

Li Nie nodded, and said: "After all, my lord has a strong personality, and the General's Mansion has always been relentless in suppressing the Jiangdong family. It was the recent marriage between the general and Zhou Shijun that made the relationship between the two parties a bit peaceful. But it is undeniable that Jiangdong's aristocratic families and gentry still have a grudge against the general's mansion, and the ghost soldiers probably want to sow discord."

"Who is the leader of the ghost soldiers?" Sun Quan asked after a moment of silence.

"According to the information we got, it should be Xi Zhicai's younger brother, Yingchuan Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao!" Li Nie said: "This person is a very smart person, and the ghost soldier has been in his hands for a year It is not easy to develop into the hinterland of our Jiangdong."

"Guo Jia, the ghost, is indeed a difficult person. By the way, is there any shadow of ghost pawns in our Jinyiwei system?" Sun Quan's face was a little cold, and a killing intent appeared in his eyes, and said: "We are in the ghost pawns. Introduce people into the system, don't let other people enter our lair, if this is the case, we Jinyiwei will be too dereliction of duty!"

"Don't worry, Governor, I've already cleaned up the Jinyiwei. I haven't found anything about it yet. After all, our Jinyiwei would rather be deficient than excessive. If you want to enter the Jinyiwei, you have to go through multiple assessments." Li Nie replied affirmatively.

"As for ghost pawns, we must not relax. We must remember that Cao Cao will be our biggest enemy in Jiangdong in the future. Knowing ourselves and our enemies is always the most important thing." Sun Quan squinted his eyes, his face stern.

"promise."

Li Nie nodded, Sun Quan's emphasis on Cao Cao was beyond his expectations, but he believed in Sun Quan's judgment.

"I'll leave this matter to you. If there is evidence, find one, kill one, I'll take care of everything. But if there is no solid evidence, even if you are sure that the spy is a ghost soldier, you can't move."

Sun Quan sighed, looked at Li Nie, and said: "At this time, we can't let the relationship between the General's Mansion and the Jiangdong family become rigid."

"My subordinate understands!"

Li Nie naturally understood the importance of this. After pondering for a moment, his eyes flickered, and he asked suddenly: "Governor, there is another question. I have been researching the Jinyiwei's plan in Xu County for the past few days, and my subordinates are a little bit uncomfortable. I understand why Jinyiwei wastes so much manpower and material resources in a small county."

“This place is very important for the future!”

Sun Quan replied lightly.

"The future is important?" Li Nie was puzzled.

"Ok!"

Sun Quan nodded, with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "The layout here can be arranged in advance. For us, the role it will play in the future is immeasurable. You can just follow the original plan and bury it deeper. .”

Cao Cao coerced the emperor to order the princes, and moved the capital to Xu County, which was called Xu Capital in later generations.

"No!" Although Li Nie didn't understand, he did it anyway.

"Old Li, Jin Yiwei still has a lot of secrets that you don't know. Talk to Han Tao more, and you will understand how many games Jin Yiwei has set up in this world." Sun Quan knew the doubts in Li Nie's heart. Who would have thought that Cao Cao would put such a Turning a small county into a capital, he smiled, changed the subject, and said.
