Compared with Sun Ce, he is really far behind.
"Well, I'll write a letter to my sister to see if she can make Wei Guo retreat."
"Queen, you mean, my aunt is in Wei?"
Mrs. Wu said earnestly: "You will know about this sooner or later. In fact, I sent her out at the beginning."
Sun Quan asked in bewilderment, "Why did the queen mother do this?"
Sending my aunt to the state of Wei, isn't this like a sheep going into the mouth of a tiger? My aunt is only in her 20s. With her appearance, is it possible that Cao Shuo is not attracted to her?
Mrs. Wu didn't answer Sun Quan's question. Why did she do this? It's not Sun Ce's problem. She didn't want Mrs. Wu to stay in Wu, because she had a son by her side.
"Don't ask that."
Madam Wu took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter, handed it to Sun Quan and said, "Send some reliable men to send this letter to Longteng Chamber of Commerce."
Sun Quan was horrified again. Instead of sending it directly to Wei State, he actually had to go through the hands of the Longteng Chamber of Commerce?
After Sun Quan left with the letter, Mrs. Wu looked at Sun Quan's back and shed two lines of tears.
"If my husband is here, how can I allow that old Liu Biao to be arrogant."
The news of Liu Biao's increase of troops in Changsha soon spread to Zhou Yu's army. Zhou Yu hurried back to Nanchang City without stopping, fearing that if he came back too late, Sun Quan would do something irrational.
"Report to Your Majesty, the chief inspector is asking to see you!"
Governor?
Sun Quan was horrified, what would happen to the navy when Zhou Yu came back at this time.
"Let him in!"
Zhou Yu came to Sun Quan's residence alone, and Sun Quan asked eagerly, "Governor, why are you back?"
Zhou Yu said, "Your Majesty, Liu Biao sent an army here to attack Yichun. How can I not come back?"
"Can……"
Just as Sun Quan was about to speak, Zhou Yu said, "I heard that your majesty wants to seek asylum from Wei?"
Sun Quan nodded, there is no need to hide this matter from Zhou Yu.
"Your Majesty, absolutely not. This is seeking skin from a tiger. In the end, it is our country of Wu who will be injured."
Sun Quan asked, "Does the governor have a good strategy to retreat from the enemy?"
"This…… "
Zhou Yu was silent. If he had a good plan to retreat from the enemy, why would he rush back to persuade Sun Quan?
"Since the governor has no good strategy to retreat from the enemy, do you want to watch the country of Wu perish?"
"But the Kingdom of Wei will never treat the king kindly."
Once Sun Quan professed his vassal to Wei Guo, it would be difficult to say whether he would take the position of King Wu.
After thinking for a while, Zhou Yu suddenly said, "I have a plan, which may solve Wu's current difficulties."
"The governor, tell me quickly." Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu eagerly, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
"If Liu Biao defeats us, with Liu Biao's strength, he can't stop Cao Shuo's navy at all. Why don't our two families discuss peace here and jointly resist Cao Shuo."
Sun Quan was speechless. He thought that Zhou Yu would have some clever tricks, even though he knew that he would make him surrender to Liu Biao.
"Governor, our grievances with Liu Biao are even deeper than Cao Shuo. Isn't it a little unwise to choose to negotiate peace with Liu Biao?"
Zhou Yu explained: "As a king, Cao Shuo will definitely not treat the king kindly to Wei Guo. Don't forget, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao's fate, the two of them were sent to Xianbei directly by Cao Shuo."
"Furthermore, Yuan Shu is Cao Shuo's nominal father-in-law, so with this kind of relationship, he can be assigned directly. How does Your Majesty think Cao Shuo will treat you?"
Sun Quan wiped off his cold sweat. Zhou Yu's explanation made him feel that he might be able to save Wu if he took refuge in Wei, but his life would be at stake.
"However, to make peace with Liu Biao, you can't talk empty words. How could Liu Biao give up this great opportunity to destroy us?"
"Your Majesty, I heard that Xu Kun has a daughter. She is thirteen years old and just about to marry. Why don't you give it to Liu Biao's eldest son, Liu Qi?"
"This……"
Sun Quan's heart aches, he and Xu Yuan grew up together, he has been envious of Xu Yuan's beauty for a long time, how can he give it away directly?
"Your Majesty, isn't it worth it to exchange a woman for Sun Liu to rebuild the alliance?"
"cocoa……"
Sun Quan was still a little reluctant.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Liu Biao's brother-in-law, Huang Chengyan, has a daughter. If your Majesty can marry Huang's daughter, then we are not at a loss!"
"Besides, Huang Chengyan has a very high reputation in Jingzhou, so he might be able to recommend a few students to Wu Guo."
Sun Quan frowned, did he really want to send Xu Yuan out?
"How does Huang's daughter look like?"
"It is said that there is nothing in the world, but there are few in the sky!"
Chapter 503 Marry Huang Yueying as Queen?
Sun Quan thought for a while and asked, "Then I'll let Zijing go to Jingzhou to give Liu Biao a betrothal gift."
Zhou Yu hurriedly dissuaded him, "No, my lord. We should give the dowry first, and then tell Liu Biao about it."
Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu with a puzzled face, why did he do this?
Are you still afraid that Liu Biao will not agree?
Zhou Yu explained: "Your Majesty, if you go to Liu Biao first, there is a high probability that the marriage will not work out. We should start with Liu Biao first, and then go to discuss the marriage with Liu Biao."
"Your Majesty only needs to promise Huang's daughter a queen. As long as the other party is moved, then there will be no problem in our alliance with Liu Biao."
Sun Quan suddenly realized.
If the Huang family is in the middle of reconciling, then it will be a matter of time before he and Liu Biao stop fighting. After all, they are relatives.
However, there is no need to go to Wei to ask for a truce at the same time. He is Cao Shuo's second uncle, so this relationship must not be wasted.
"Governor, where is Huang Chengyan's house?"
Zhou Yu smiled wryly and said, "I don't know. The king needs to send someone to look for it, but the possibility is still very high in Xiangyang."
Sun Quan was speechless, could this strategy work?
He doesn't know where he lives, how do you know he has a daughter, is it really beautiful?
Sun Quan called Lu Su and said, "Zijing, send someone to Xiangyang to find out where Huang Chengyan lives. I want to marry Huang Chengyan's daughter."
Lu Su asked in surprise, "Why did my lord marry Huang Chengyan's daughter?"
"Because he is Liu Biao's niece."
Lu Su immediately understood that Zhou Yu wanted to join forces with Liu Biao to fight against Cao Shuo.
If he could really marry Huang Chengyan's daughter, then the alliance might be much stronger than before.
After Lu Su took the order to leave, Sun Quan looked at Sun Ben and said, "Brother, my mother wrote a letter that needs to be sent to the Longteng Chamber of Commerce. Go and send this letter there."
Sun Ben asked: "Your Majesty, do you really want to marry Xu Yuan to Liu Qi? I heard that Liu Qi is a sick child who spends his days drinking and drinking. His life is definitely not long."
Sun Quan sighed and said, "I don't want to either, but now the state of Wu is in crisis. If we don't do this, it won't be long before our state of Wu will be wiped out by Cao Shuo and Liu Biao."
Sun Ben shook his head and walked out of Sun Quan's palace. He knew that Sun Quan had been coveting Xu Yuan for a long time, so why not him, but for the sake of Wu, they had to make a choice.
The residence of Sima Hui in Xiangyang City.
Sima Hui, Mr. Pang De, and Huang Chengyan were sitting together, discussing the current situation in Jingzhou.
Pang Degong said: "Wei's soldiers and horses have not moved for half a year. I guess Wei will send troops south soon."
Sima Hui said: "I heard from Yuan Zhi that Nanyang County is secretly building ships in the Han River. It is estimated that Zhao Yun's army will attack Jingzhou in less than a month."
Huang Chengyan said: "I'm afraid Xiangyang can't stay here any longer!"
Once Zhao Yun's army crosses the Han River, Xiangyang will be the first to be affected. When the time comes, people will be devastated and corpses will be everywhere, and Jingzhou will be over.
Liu Biao fought on both sides, and the army was transferred away from Xiangyang.
Sima Hui looked at Lord Pang De and said, "How is your nephew Pang Tong now? I heard that he is going to be an official in the State of Wei?"
Duke Pang De replied: "The remaining princes are unlikely to be Cao Shuo's opponents. Except for going to Wei to let him show off his talents, the other princes will not stay long at all."
Given the current situation in the world, even if the three of them go out together, they will not be able to save any of the princes. Cao Shuo has countless capable men, and countless brave generals and advisors.
Moreover, Cao Shuo occupied several important mines in the north, and his equipment was much more advanced than that of other princes. Selling Liu Biao and Sun Quan's obsolete equipment can rapidly improve their strength.
This kind of strength absolutely crushes the heroes, and they also learned that Cao Shuo did not sell equipment to Shu in order to limit the development of Shu, so that Shu has been exhausted with Liu Biao, and Liu Bei is peeping in Hanzhong, and soon It will be collapsed by Wei Guowan.
Huang Chengyan said: "The guard of Xiangyang, Cai Ze, is Cai Mao's cousin, and he is really a waste. Now Cao Shuo only cares about gaining benefits from Jingzhou, and let Liu Biao restrict Sun Quan and Liu Zhang. Otherwise, Zhao Yun would have captured Xiangyang City long ago. gone."
The three of them have a thorough analysis of the current situation. Their students have been paying attention to the movement around Jingzhou. Whoever wants to become an official must consider clearly whether he has the ability to stir up the situation in the world. Wei Guo became an official.
Moreover, the state of Wei has now started the imperial examination. As long as there is real talent and learning, they will be hired, which is far beyond other princes.
Mr. Pang De looked at Sima Hui and said, "Mr. Sima, why don't you move to Nanyang too, and you can move back after Jingzhou is pacified."
Sima Hui is a few years older than the two, and in their hearts, he is the big brother.
Sima Hui shook his head and said, "There's nothing wrong here, but my disciple Xu Shu needs to trouble Mr. Pang De to take care of him so that he can find a good official position in Wei."
Pang Degong said with a smile: "Sir, you underestimate Xu Shu. The results of the imperial examination in Nanyang County will be announced in three days. I am sure that Xu Shu and Pang Tong will definitely occupy the top three positions."
When the three of them were discussing who could win the top spot among the juniors, Huang Chengyan's servant hurried here.
"Master, there is a guest at home, and the other party says it is Wu Guowei Wei Lu Su!"
Huang Chengyan frowned. Lu Su is a great hero of the Wu State, and he is highly respected in the Wu State. Why does he come to his home when he has nothing to do?
Could it be that he invited himself to be an official with Sun Quan?
Before leaving, Sima Hui reminded: "Sun Quan can't control the situation in Wu at present. Under the enemy's back and belly, he has to take an unusual path to keep his foundation. Brother Huang must deal with it carefully."
When Huang Chengyan returned home, he saw Lu Su and asked with a smile, "Master Zijing, what is the purpose of coming to my Huangfu?"
Lu Su said respectfully: "In front of Mr. Huang, I dare not call myself an adult. Mr. Huang's prestige in Jingzhou is a hundred times greater than that of Lu Su."
Huang Chengyan narrowed his eyes, this Lu Su is so polite, he must have something important to discuss with him.
However, he can't get involved in Wu's affairs, and he doesn't have that much face to ask his brother-in-law Liu Biao to strike against Wu.
"Master Zijing, don't be so secretive. If you have something to say, just say it. If the officials in Jingzhou know that Master Zijing is here, there will definitely be a lot of trouble."
Lu Su smiled awkwardly, took out a gift list, and said, "Mr. Huang, this is the betrothal gift from our King Wu to Mr. Huang."
"bride price?"
Huang Chengyan frowned. He thought that Lu Su was targeting him, but he didn't expect that they would target his daughter.
"The king of Wu wants to marry Huang Gong's daughter as the queen of Wu."
Huang Chengyan said with a straight face: "I'm afraid it's not that simple."
Chapter 504 The Importance of Packaging
Lu Su explained: "My king heard that Huang's daughter is dignified and generous, and she is the best candidate for the queen, so he sent her down to give the dowry."
Huang Chengyan was silent for a while, then said: "This matter is very important, I need to discuss it with my wife."
As soon as Lu Su heard that Huang Chengyan didn't directly refuse, he knew that there was hope for success in this matter, so he said: "Huang Gong, my king has admired Huang's daughter for a long time, and I hope Huang Gong can make it happen."
Huang Chengyan was calm on the surface, but he was thinking in his heart, you think my brain is broken.
How long can your country of Wu last?
At that time, my daughter will lose her life if she becomes a subjugated wife.
It's a big joke to talk about admiring him for a long time.
Wasn't it because I was Liu Biao's brother-in-law that I came up with this idea, if we had nothing to do with Liu Biao, would you come here to marry my daughter?
However, in order to dispel Sun Quan's thoughts, Huang Chengyan planned to let Lu Su meet Huang Yueying and let him know first.
"Come on, call the lady!"
"promise!"
