Shu Chen

Chapter 314
The way of lobbyists, words are not amazing and endless.

For example, Zheng Pu deceived Zhuge Rong to report to Sun Quan, claiming that "the wealthy family will rebel", it is not true that there will be a rebellion in the construction industry, but just to let Sun Quan summon him as soon as possible.

Just like Deng Zhi's envoy to Wu in the past, Sun Quan was suspicious and did not see him.

Deng Zhi had no choice but to revise the form and present it with the statement that "the minister also wants to be Wu, not just Shu", before he was summoned.

Seeing that Sun Quan's previous meeting had been rescheduled, Zheng Pu, who was worried that there would be another change at the time of the incident, was cast as a book at the right time, so he made this bad plan.

Yes, he was in a hurry to go home.

Not only was he anticipating that Wei would fight back aggressively after losing Liangzhou, but he wanted to go back as soon as possible to take part in the planning or supervise the defense; he also didn't want to stay in Jiangdong with nothing to do.

In particular, criticisms such as "Scar Pu's arrogance" have already become aroused.

As for Sun Quan, believe it or not, there are wealthy families who will rebel
Impossible!

If he didn't even have this ability to discriminate, then the Sun's Jiangdong Foundation would have ceased to exist long ago.

But as long as Zhuge Rong went to deliver the letter, Sun Quan would definitely summon Zheng Pu.

And it was called very quickly.

Gein's family ugliness cannot be publicized!
An envoy and foreign minister was actually sent a secret letter of treason, which made the whole country of Sun Wu feel ashamed.

Even if Sun Quan knew that this move was someone who wanted to lure Zheng Pu into a trap and destroy it, he still had to file a complaint in accordance with the order, so that Zheng Pu would stop talking about it and prevent Wu from giving the pretext that his governance was unstable.

As it should be.

It was only half an hour after Zhuge entered the palace to have an audience, a man who called himself Gu Li, brought more than ten cars to Zhuge Jin's mansion, and asked Zheng Pu to follow him into the palace immediately.

Gu Li seems to be not well-known in Jiangdong and has few achievements.

But it was the existence that Sun Quan's descendants would talk nicely to Yan Yuese when they saw each other.

Because he is Sun Quan's confidant, no matter where he is, he always supervises and leads the chariots to dismount the tigers and guards.

Therefore, Zheng Pu didn't neglect, he just told Qiyacuo to restrain the other subordinates, and then boarded the car and left.

Brisk all the way.

After arriving in front of the palace, Zheng Pu knew the reason why Gu Li told him not to change into the court clothes and called Chen Zhi, the deputy envoy.

It turned out that Sun Quan was going to hunt in the field, so he took this meeting as an unexpected meeting.

As a ruler, Sun Quan still likes to commit dangerous hunting and shooting tigers. It is not a secret in Jiangdong, and it is inevitable that Zhang Zhao, the mainstay minister, will give a lot of advice. Zheng Pu has heard about this when he was in Bashu.

At this moment, he was sitting on a good horse, walking slowly under the guard of many soldiers.

Seeing Gu Li leading Zheng Pu to him, he didn't say anything, he just waved his hand, ordering the chariots and horses to join the army.

Zheng Pu, who was unable to get out of the car to salute, couldn't help feeling helpless in his heart - he really didn't have that interest in hunting with Sun Quan, nor did he want to see the majesty of ferocious beasts.

Those who often drive away armored soldiers, but show their abilities by attacking cities and conquering land, how can they face fierce beasts to show off their bravery and evil?
To imitate the courage of ordinary people and to do the work of minions will only increase the ridicule of innocence.

No wonder Hefei never broke it!
Slandering secretly, Zheng Pu also secretly looked at Sun Quan in front of him.

Sun Quan's body is not very long, but he is long at the top and short at the bottom. He is especially powerful when he is on the back of a horse, and he is equipped with swords, bows and arrows. He looks like a general and not a king.Compared with Weiwu Cao Cao, who was called by the Huns envoys in the past, "the man who catches the knife on the bed is a hero", the majesty is not the same.

When I was young, I went to the hunting ground.

Quite a few of the soldiers who accompanied them spontaneously carried gongs, golden drums and other things without needing to issue orders, and went into the mountains and swamps in groups of three or five to drive away wild animals; The tiger comes out.

Taking advantage of the situation, Zheng Pu got off the carriage, and without waiting for Gu Li to lead him, he headed towards Sun Quan's place, stopped four or five steps away, bowed and bowed in salute, "Foreign Minister Hanzhong Protector Pu, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"No extra ceremony."

Gently nodding his head, Sun Quan smiled coyly, "Let's hunt, Qing and I will enjoy it together."

And he looked at Gu Li, indicating that he would give Zheng Pu the bow and arrows and other things.

But Zheng Pu did not accept the bow as he said, but maintained his salute and confessed, "Although I dare not express your majesty's pleasure, the foreign ministers have been weak since childhood, and it is difficult for them to be capable of martial arts, such as shooting spears and other things." None of them are good at it, let alone field hunting.”

"Hey!"

Hearing this, Sun Quan, who was pulling the string to test the strength of his bow, couldn't help but paused, looked sideways in surprise and said, "I don't think it's difficult for someone who Ni Wei is called "Wei's great patient" to be an evil in martial arts?"

After finishing speaking, before Zheng Pu could speak, he seemed to have thought of something, and his face froze suddenly.

Abandoning the beautifully decorated two-stone bow on the ground, he sighed, "Those who are difficult to be capable of martial arts can restore the country's frontiers for thousands of miles, and make everyone in the Wei Wei fear. I shot countless tigers, but it was difficult to pull out the city of Ni Wei. What joy is there in this place!"

Hey, is he so eager and evil?
As soon as Sun Quan's words fell, Zheng Pu couldn't help asking in his heart.

Yes, without worrying too much, he knew what Sun Quan wanted to do.

Its purpose was nothing more than Zheng Pu's previous words of despising Jiangdong's sizeless expansion of land, so he took this opportunity to pretend to sigh, and then took advantage of the opportunity to ask Zheng Pu to make suggestions for Wu.

After all, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang praised Zheng Pu for his ability to plan, and Jiang Dong also heard about it.

Moreover, since Zhou Yu, Lu Su and others passed away, it has been difficult for Sun Quan to find someone who can give advice.

It's not that Jiangdong is unscrupulous.

It's hard to find people who don't have selfishness or worry about the Zongmen Township Party, and plan wholeheartedly for the rise of Jiangdong.

As for letting a foreign minister seek advice, Sun Quan would not feel ashamed.

This is not a court meeting, but the joy of field hunting!

Why not talk about gossip?

Furthermore, today's Han and Wu countries are in a state of coexistence with the same interests.As long as the state of Wu sends troops to attack the state of Wei, it will reduce the pressure on the deployment of the Han Longyou and Hexi.

Planning for the state of Wu also benefits the great Han, so Zheng Pu has no reason not to do his best.

Or in other words, this is the main reason why the prime minister ordered Zheng Pu to act as an envoy—to make plans for the state of Wu, and must persuade Sun Quan to send troops to contain the state of Wei, so as to win time for the big man to cultivate his health and rest.

Otherwise, with Jiangdong's consistent style, when will Sun Quan send troops to attack Wei?
The prime minister felt that if there were no accidents, it should be after all the troops in Guanzhong of Wei State came to attack Longyou!
This is a matter of mutual understanding.

However, what puzzled Zheng Pu was why Sun Quan was so eager?
Moreover, as a monarch, he did not hesitate to speak carelessly, and did not hesitate to say such despondent words as "It is difficult to undo Wei Yicheng".

Could it be that seeing my great Han regaining Liangzhou, and the whole country looking to the Northwest against the Wei Dynasty, they feel that this opportunity must not be missed, and they are trying to exploit the merits of opening up the territory?

With doubts, Zheng Pu acted proudly, "Why is your Majesty pretending to be humble? Although the foreign ministers are dull, they also know that since His Majesty ruled Jiangdong, he rebelled against Li Shu in Lujiang and punished Huangzu in Jiangxia; there was Chibi in front of him." The first battle ordered Ni Wei to return to the north in a hurry, and now there is Shiting World War II that ordered Ni Wei not to dare to face the river, such a feat is rarely heard of in ancient and modern times, isn't it the majesty of a hero!"
