These old ministers are all talented people, so they don't know how to exercise power in court.
Once Zhou Yu died, the military power naturally returned to Sun Quan's hands.
How could it be possible for Sun Quan to send troops to fight against Liu Bei now? Liu Bei's move to force Zhou Yu to death actually helped Sun Quan.
What's more, now that the military power has just returned to his hands, it is impossible for Sun Quan to hand them over.
Lu Su knew this, and so did Zhang Zhao.
But Lu Su knew in his heart that he must not say this.
Zhou Yu was already dead, if he told Huang Gai and other old ministers about Sun Quan's thoughts, Jiangdong would be even more chaotic.
They all have military power in their hands and prestige in the army.
If they are dissatisfied with the lord, Jiangdong will be finished!
Hold on, now I can only do everything possible to stabilize the situation!
……
A moment later, in Sun Quan's study.
In the study, there are only Sun Quan and Zhang Zhao.
"What are your orders, my lord?"
Zhang Zhao said dully.
Sun Quan stood with his hands behind his back, looked at the bamboo slips on the case, and said slowly:
"Zhou Yu finally died, Zibu, are you happy?"
Zhang Zhao was taken aback for a moment, then said in a deep voice:
"Zhou Gongjin's death is my Jiangdong's misfortune."
Sun Quan sneered and said:
"Jiangdong's misfortune is luck for you and me."
"Zhou Yu has so much power in his hands that I can't tell who is the master of Jiangdong, he or me."
Zhang Zhao nodded and remained silent.
Sun Quan wanted to weaken Zhou Yu's power earlier.
Zhou Yu is too conceited, and after he has power in his hands, no one cares about him.
Even Sun Quan, the lord, seemed to be ignored.
After leading troops without authorization and disobeying orders to attack Jingzhou this time, Zhang Zhao understood that Zhou Yu could no longer settle down in Jiangdong.
Jiangdong, either there is no Sun Quan, or there is no Zhou Yu.
The two have reached a point where fire and water are incompatible.
However, this is a good thing for Zhang Zhao.
Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong believed that it was enough to guard the Jiangdong foundation, but Zhou Yu was different.
Zhou Yu tried every means to expand Jiangdong's territory and compete in the world.
In the eyes of Zhang Zhao and others, this is to harm Jiangdong Foundation.
Now that Zhou Yu is dead, his followers are also scattered. The conservative faction of Zhang Zhao and others finally has no strong opponents.
That's why Sun Quan came to Zhang Zhao.
"Since Zhou Yu is dead, there is no need for the remaining person to live."
"If someone with ulterior motives jumps over the wall in a hurry, it's hard to say."
"Zibu, we must put an end to all hidden dangers."
Hearing this, Zhang Zhao looked at Sun Quan in disbelief:
"My lord, this..."
"I'm afraid it's not right."
Sun Quan glanced at Zhang Zhao, narrowed his eyes and said:
"What's wrong?"
"Do you know that those who follow Zhou Yu occupy the majority of the court?"
"If after Zhou Yu's death, they join forces to overthrow me, do you think it's impossible?"
Hearing this, Zhang Zhao remained silent.
"Go, send some good hands, remember, don't let the wind out."
"After the matter is completed, all people who know the truth, except you, will be eliminated."
"Leave not a single trace."
Sun Quan waved his hand and said.
The tone was extremely calm, as if it was a trivial matter.
But Zhang Zhao's heart was full of turbulent waves.
Everyone except yourself is left alive?
It seems that Sun Quan has become determined after eating the weight!
That person must be eliminated!
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhao could not help but break out in cold sweat.
He never expected that Sun Quan would change so much.
Compared with the time when he just took over Jiangdong Daye from the ancestor Sun Ce, Sun Quan seemed to be a different person.
I don't even know myself anymore.
It even made Zhang Zhao feel that if he was not careful and walked on thin ice, it might be his turn next.
Right now, it's better to follow Sun Quan first.
The remaining hidden dangers mentioned by Sun Quan are actually no one else.
It was Sun Ce and Da Qiao's son - Sun Shao.
Da Qiao is not sure if he is still alive, then Sun Shao must die, there is no doubt about it.
No matter how reluctant Zhang Zhao was, since Sun Quan said it, he still had to do it in the end.
Zhang Zhao understood that this was an opportunity Sun Quan gave him.
A chance to trust yourself and not touch yourself.
Right, really can change everything.
The two brothers had such a good relationship before, but in the end, because of power, Sun Quan actually wanted to kill his own nephew.
Really ironic.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhao left Sun Quan's residence without looking back.
No one in Jiangdong would have thought that within a few days, the situation in Jiangdong would undergo a shocking change.
Sun Quan was not the only one who wanted to do something.
What he wants to do is to reshuffle the entire Jiangdong.
After Zhou Yu's death, he was still thinking about Zhou Yu's tricks, and he would win over if he could.
If you can't win over, there's no need to keep it.
Sun Quan wants to concentrate all the power in his own hands.
In Jiangdong, there can be another governor.
However, it is only the governor.
There can only be one Lord of Jiangdong in Jiangdong, and that is Sun Quan himself.
After the Battle of Chibi, Cao Jun withdrew.
The catastrophe that belongs to Jiangdong has just begun.
Although Sun Quan knew that it might not be a good choice to clean up the officials at this time.
But at least, it can eliminate internal worries.
Chapter 174 Hurry back to Tongguan!
Five days later, in the direction of Xiliang.
For five whole days, there was no news from Tongguan.
Bai Chuan was not in a hurry, and invited Ma Chao to have drinks and chat with Ma Chao every day.
No matter how wary Ren Machao was towards Bai Chuan, after getting along with him during this period of time, he was also shaken by Bai Chuan's words.
The first thing to bear the brunt is the attitude towards Liu Bei.
Who is Liu Bei? Ma Chao had seen it a long time ago.
Ma Teng didn't trust Liu Bei very much, he just joined the army because he thought it would be profitable.
Now, according to what Bai Chuan said, how much Liu Bei took pains to do this, this made Ma Chao even more defensive towards Liu Bei.
"General, this Ma Teng can really sit still."
"It's been five days, it's been five days."
"He still can't think of a way to rescue Ma Chao."
Cao Chun murmured, puzzled in his mind.
"No hurry, we have plenty of time."
"For the past five days, our army has practiced every day, and we are refreshed every day. There is no battle, isn't it good?"
Bai Chuan stretched his waist, and said quietly.
Cao Chun laughed dryly:
"It's nice to be so good, but..."
In the middle of speaking, Cao Chun pursed his lips, wondering if he should continue talking.
But Bai Chuan signaled:
"Zihe, but it's okay to say."
"Between you and me, why is this so?"
Cao Chun gritted his teeth when he heard this, and said:
"Forgive me for speaking bluntly, General."
"After all, our army is 30 troops, and now all the troops are stationed outside Tongguan."
"The consumption of food and grass is very high."
"I heard that many ministers in the DPRK are already dissatisfied with the general's failure to send troops, and some people want to impeach the general."
"If this continues, it will be fine for the last general to wait for others, but you, the general..."
Having said that, Cao Chun sighed helplessly.
Bai Chuan is good everywhere, but this background drags him down.
If Bai Chuan came from a famous family, or the Cao family, how could these nobles dare to say anything?
They are all bullying Bai Chuan, who has no background and is just a poor boy who fights the world with his bare hands.
Thinking of this, Cao Chun became furious and said:
"These gentry are simply too much."
"If you don't accept it, let them try to fight Xiliang!"
