Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 374 Guilty
In 232 A.D., the first year of Wu Emperor Sun Quan Jiahe, March.

"Snapped!"

Sun Quan closed the memorial and threw it on the ground, with a stern expression, and said in a cold voice: "Yu Zhongxiang (Yu Fanzi) lived in Jiaozhou and died without repentance, lightly discussing state affairs and slandering the king."

Standing at the bottom of the steps, Lv Yi, the school official, said: "My lord, although Yu Fan was exiled to Jiaozhou, there are hundreds of disciples under him, and they live in arrogance, and they criticized the matter of sending envoys to make friends with Liaodong. I hope the lord will punish him, Be positive."

Yu Fan's temperament was straightforward, and he repeatedly violated Yan Yan's remonstrance and disputes, which made Sun Quan very angry, and was often relegated to a barren land.But he was always worried about state affairs. This time, Sun Quan sent General Zhou He and Captain Pei Qian to Liaodong. Yu Fan thought it was inappropriate, but he didn't report it. He only told Lu Dai, but he was accidentally informed by the villain. , to be slandered.

Prince Sun Deng looked at his father, who was getting thinner and thinner, and cupped his hands and said, "I want to report to my father, Duke Yu is old and has a habit of drinking, and his words are mostly absurd. I think a little reprimand is enough to show Supreme benevolence."

In the first month, Sun Quan's favorite youngest son, Sun Li, died. This made Sun Quan cry in grief, lose his appetite, and reduce his meals.Worried about Sun Quan's health, Sun Deng returned to Jianye from Wuchang to accompany Sun Quan.

Hearing this, Sun Quan restrained his expression, and said lightly: "From the words of the crown prince, Yu Zhongxiang can be demoted to Cangwu County. Tell him this is the crown prince's benevolence, and he will be more peaceful in the future."

"promise!"

Zhuge Jin sighed inwardly. Since the Suiyin case last year and the death of Sun Li, the Supreme Being was in a bad mood and was often furious. Fortunately, the crown prince returned to Jianye, and now he can persuade the Supreme Being to do something.

It can be said that Sun Deng, the prince, was trained by Sun Quan. The concubine is the daughter of Zhou Yu, and her left and right arms are the children of Huaisi and Eastern Wu heroes.Sun Deng has been familiar with Confucian classics since he was a child. He has a kind and generous personality and is very friendly to his younger brothers.Zhang Wen, who taught Liu Chan's sons, was Sun Deng's then prince Taifu.

Sun Deng's birth mother, Xu's family, was humble. Because of jealousy, Sun Quan was deposed and abolished in Wu County. Sun Deng was raised by a step trainer.When Sun Quan was canonized as Sun Deng as the crown prince, Sun Quan asked where his mother was?Sun Deng bluntly replied, "Living in Wujun".Sun Quan was silent.

In the end, because of Sun Deng, Sun Quan did not canonize his favorite step trainer as the empress, and the harem has no owner so far.

"Is Zhu Qing still playing?" Sun Quan asked through Mian.

Hu Zong, the attendant, came out, holding a wat board and said: "I will tell you, General Hussars, that the Shu Han may have colluded with the Wuxi barbarians. The Ximan, who joined the defeated Chenxi and Youxi barbarians, entered Han and killed nearly a hundred military archers."

"The hussars thought that the Shu Han seized the land of the two prefectures, or they might have the intention of defeating Wu and seizing Jingzhou. This time, Deng Zhi should be a test. I hope the Supreme will clearly observe and increase troops to support Jingzhou to prevent the Shu Han from attacking."

As soon as this remark came out, the court was in an uproar.Since Liu Chan ascended the throne, Han and Wu have been at peace for nearly ten years. The border between the two countries has been peaceful, with caravans coming and going, and ships constantly flowing. There is little peace. Could it be that this year will be broken?
Sun Quan widened his eyes and stood up. He never expected the big man to act like this.

Xu Xiang, the governor of the right side of the Xie Fan Army, was filled with righteous indignation, and said: "Western Shu has deceived people too much. No wonder the Wuxi barbarians have rebelled these years. It seems that Shu people are responsible. in color."

On the steps, Sun Quan paced back and forth, shaking the crown on his head, and asked, "Wei Ze (Hu Zongzi), Ziyu (Zhuge Jin), what do you two think?"

Zhuge Jin pondered for a while, then came out and said: "My lord, I think you can send an envoy to inquire first to see if there is any deviation, and don't take it lightly to hurt the Wu-Han alliance."

Hu Zong, who was silent for a long time, said: "Deng Zhi, governor of Jiangzhou, is not an ordinary general. He is guarding the eastern frontier of the Shu Han. Unprovoked intrusion into Wuling County may not be a simple way to clear up the bandits, but it can be covered up. The clues are quite deep. , the Supreme must check."

"Today Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Shu Han, is attacking the land of the two states. His troops are strong and his horses are strong, and his morale is in full swing. There is also the possibility of offending our great Wu and retaking Jingzhou. Moreover, most of the high-ranking officials of the Shu Han are from Jingzhou, and their relationship is intricate. I am afraid that the words of the Hussars are not True."

"What do you think of Yifeng (Zhu Ran's character)?" Sun Quan asked again.

Regarding the matter of going to war with the big man, Sun Quan had to be cautious and asked the confidants and senior officials of the DPRK and China one by one.

Zhu Ran held the wat board, frowned slightly, and said: "My lord, I think that if the Shu Han wants to offend me, they should first build ships and rebuild the navy. But for several years, I have not heard of the new ships of the Shu Han. My minister I think the Supreme Being can send envoys to the Han to investigate the internal feelings of the Shu Han, and then we will know whether he has the intention to win Jingzhou!"

Sun Quan stopped, looked at Zhu Ran and asked, "What is the meaning of Yifeng?"

Zhu Ran looked at Sun Quan on the steps, and said solemnly: "I thought that Your Majesty led the army to Jingzhou and invited the Emperor of Han to hunt on the border of Wu and Han to congratulate the Shu Han on taking the land of the two states. When the Emperor Han came, the Shu Han did not offend me. Heart; if the Emperor of Han shirks, our Great Wu will need to send more soldiers to guard Xiling."

Sun Quan nodded slightly, Zhu Ran's suggestion is good, it is too extreme to directly ask the teacher for the crime, and it is difficult to find out the Shu people's intentions by sending envoys to inquire about the crime.It is a relatively reasonable strategy to lead the army to Jingzhou and invite Liu Chan to the banquet. At the same time, it can also show the power of the Wu army.

Sun Quan made up his mind, sat down on the couch, and asked, "How is Wuxi Man's peace at present?"

"My lord, according to Lü Inspector Lu and Bu Huuqi, the rebel tribes of the Wuxi Man have been pacified. In this battle, more than [-] people were beheaded, and more than [-] people from each tribe of the Wuxi Man were surrendered. There were more than [-] Wuxi Man. The people of the Ximan tribe were sent to the Han territory by Deng Zhi. After this battle, the Wuxi Man will not be in chaos, and the counties in Jingnan will have peace."

Hu Zong took out the memorial from his bosom, and said frankly and frankly: "Buhushi said, Han Fuling County and Wuling County are separated by Wuling Mountain. The mountain is rugged and difficult. If there is no preparation in advance, it will be so difficult for Deng Zhi to move people. I fear the Shu Han I've been planning this for a long time!"

Sun Quan pondered for a while, and then ordered: "Decree, let the Hussar general guard Xiling and Wuling strictly, and spread scouts to guard against any changes in the Shu Han."

After a pause, Sun Quan continued: "Release the left and right troops and transfer five thousand sailors, and follow me to Jingzhou. Order Lu Xun and Bu Zhi to serve you. I want to see what the big man wants to do!"

"promise!"

"I don't know if He Qing is willing to go to the Shu Han, invite the Emperor of Han to the meeting, and explore the inside story of the Shu Han?" Sun Quan asked.

"The minister is willing to go!"

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see the chubby Zhuge Ke stepping forward and saying: "My lord, I am related to the prime minister of Shu Han and even by blood. The servant Zhuge Qiao is the younger brother of the minister. I am willing to go to Han to visit the Wuxi barbarians this time." For inside information, invite the Lord Han to the meeting."

When everyone heard what a good guy, Zhuge Ke was planning to use his kinship to set up the situation of the high-level inside the big man.

Hearing this, Sun Quan couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, looked at Zhuge Jin, and asked, "I don't know what Ziyu wants?"

Zhuge Jin secretly stared at Zhuge Ke, cupped his hands and said, "This is a matter for my state of Wu, and I have no objection."

"Good, since that's the case. I will use Yuan Xun as an envoy to Shu Han. I don't know if Yuan Xun can ask for anything else?"

With a big belly, Zhuge Ke cupped his hands and said, "I would like to report to my lord, if the minister returns home with success. I hope that the lord can let Ke lead the army to pacify Danyang Shanyue. In just three years, I will be able to win [-] soldiers for my great Wu. Danyang Shanyue Not for misfortune."

As soon as this remark came out, there was another burst of discussion among the people.You must know that Danyang is dangerously situated, and the terrain extends in all directions. The local people make their own weapons, advocate martial arts, and often come out of the mountains to become robbers.

Zhuge Jin's face turned dark suddenly, this brat is going to heaven.Every day I shout to fight Danyang Shanyue. You must know that the people of Danyang Shanyue are courageous and vigorous, which is not comparable to ordinary Shanyue.

But Sun Quan laughed out loud, and loved Zhuge Ke even more, and said, "Well, when you come back after your accomplishments, I will make you General Fuyue, lead the prefect of Danyang, and send troops to challenge Shanyue."

"No! Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhuge Ke responded with a happy smile.
