Who is not Cao Cao?

Chapter 133

It doesn't matter how the generals of the Sun family think of He Yan.

It still doesn't matter if Sun Quan and Zhou Yu think of He Yan in this way!
He Yan's trip was for Cao Cao's benefit at a small scale, and it was the majesty of the central government at a large scale.The meaning contained in this cannot allow He Yan to show his weakness in front of Sun Quan and Zhou Yu!
Stepping at a pace of disapproval among his relatives, He Yan followed the disgruntled crowd to his seat, raised his fiery cloak, and sat directly in the tent. His arrogance made the generals of the Sun family feel annoyed again.

Sun Quan and Zhou Yu also entered the tent at this time, they were as eager as before, and accompanied He Yan, just like a happy scene.

"Shenhou, this is the perch from the Yangtze River. It tastes very delicious. Eat as much as you can."

Sun Quan ordered the waiter to put a sea bass on He Yan's table. He Yan put a piece of sea bass into his mouth with chopsticks and his eyes lit up: "It's really delicious! This kind of sea bass is probably only available in Jiangdong."

"But it's a pity that this perch cannot be transported to the north alive, so that Sikong can taste it."

He Yan's provocation again really made some people lose their temper and retorted face to face——

As the oldest person in the army, Cheng Pu couldn't bear the insult of He Yan, a junior, and immediately taunted him: "Live fish can't go to the north, but dead fish can! If you really can't get used to it, you can come here in person." Taste fish with Jiangdong!"

He Yan blinked: "If this living person really came to Jiangdong, I'm afraid there will only be dead fish left here."

Cheng Pu immediately looked at He Yan when he heard the words, but He Yan was still smiling and unmoved.

"Shenhou, this is a little ignorant. How many fish are there in the Yangtze River? Even fishing with a net is not enough to catch all the fish. Instead, be careful that the fishing net for catching fish is broken!"

He Yan said disdainfully, "Why use fishing nets to kill fish?"

"Fish can't live without water! Just burn the sky and boil the sea to evaporate all the rivers and lakes, and no matter how many fish there are, they will be turned into flying ash!"

"What a big breath!"

"Do you want to give it a try?"

While He Yan was speaking, he slapped the chopsticks on the table, and it seemed that he was going to have a fight with Cheng Pu.

This time, He Yan didn't come here to play a verbal war with everyone in the Sun family.

Even if it's a war of words, Mrs. Sun should have licked it herself!

Among the princes in the world, except for Liu Yan and Liu Zhang's father and son in Yizhou, no one dared to directly pass on the foundation to his clan!

It was Liu Zhang, the patriarch of the Han Dynasty, who had to make superficial articles so that the court would recognize his identity as "Yizhou Mu" in order to continue to manage Yizhou.

But what about Sun?
Will Sun Quan succeed Sun Ce after he dies?

Have you asked the court?

This untruthful inheritance relationship only needs a few edicts issued by Cao Cao, which can completely make many Sun clans in Jiangdong out of their minds.

And don't forget, there is also an old enemy of the Sun family in the west-Jingzhou Mu Liubiao.

Cao Cao was held back by Yuan Shao, so he couldn't go south in a big way, but what if he added Liu Biao?

Send troops from the north and west together, so what if Tai Shici and Zhou Yu can do it?

So, now it's not that He Yan is asking Sun Quan, but Sun Quan is asking He Yan!
"you!"

Cheng Pumo said that he was in Jiangdong, that is, when he joined Yuan Shu's tent in the past, who didn't respectfully call him "Cheng Gong"?
But now he was insulted by He Yan, a child of his generation. This made Cheng Pu, who has a bad temper, to fight the case immediately. He wanted to compete with He Yan, and even more wanted to divide life and death with He Yan!

"Mr. Cheng!"

It was Zhou Yu who let Cheng Pu sit down with a sullen yell, otherwise Cheng Pu might really rush up to disrupt the situation.

After Zhou Yu scolded him, he bowed slightly to He Yan: "Marquis Shen is laughing."

"Since He Yan is here to appreciate the rhythm, then I'll go down and get ready."

When Zhou Yu was about to leave the camp gate, he shook his head slightly at Cheng Pu again, signaling him to calm down.

At this time, Sun Quan also used words to draw He Yan's attention elsewhere, barely suppressing the conflict that was about to erupt.

After a while.

Zhou Lang had already removed his armor, came to the position of the musician with the harp in his hands, and started to play slowly.

Gently flick your fingertips, and the music of the Guqin will enter your ears leisurely.

What Zhou Yu is playing at this time is "Jiangnan", a famous piece in the Han Yuefu.

Jiangnan can pick lotus, lotus leaves He Tiantian.

The fish plays with lotus leaves in the east, and the fish plays with lotus leaves in the west.

The fish play with the lotus leaf in the south, and the fish play with the lotus leaf in the north.

This is a cheerful song, coupled with Zhou Yu's superb skills, it is undoubtedly the most vivid interpretation of the lightheartedness and joy of the lotus pickers.

But the strange thing is, except for He Yan, almost no one present can immerse themselves in this relaxed atmosphere...

After the song was played, not to mention laughter, there was not even a single applause, and the entire military tent looked lifeless.If someone who didn't know broke into this tent, he might have thought Zhou Yu was playing a sad music.

"it is good!"

Fortunately, there was also the pistachio He Yan, who clapped his hands happily after Zhou Yu finished playing: "It's really good! This song should only exist in the sky, how many times can we hear it in the world? Zhou Lang's demeanor is really extraordinary!"

Seeing He Yan like this, Zhou Yu was also surprised.

After all, in Zhou Yu's view, He Yan was humiliating him by asking him to play, and the after-the-fact flattery was probably unnecessary.

"As long as Marquis Shen likes it."

After Zhou Yu sat down again, another beautiful dancer came forward to perform.

Under the influence of etiquette and music, the atmosphere in the banquet was finally lively, and it would not be as lifeless as before.

Seeing that the time was right, Sun Quan raised his glass to invite He Yan: "Is Marquis Shen still satisfied today?"

"Naturally satisfied, Jiangdong really looks good! Jingmei is even more beautiful!"

Seeing that He Yan's words softened a bit, Sun Quan also saw the needles: "If Marquis Shen likes it, he will take these dancers back."

"That's not necessary."

He Yan still doesn't know Sun Quan's little thoughts?
If these dancers are accepted, then everything just now becomes a joke.

Seeing that He Yan was so cautious, Sun Quan stopped probing, but chatted with He Yan about Hua Xin who had returned to Xuchang from Jiangdong.

"Hua Gong studied heaven and man, and actually wrote "New Interpretation of the Book of Changes", creating a new study, which is really admirable."

Although Sun Quan used Hua Xin to draw closer to He Yan, the envy in Sun Quan's words was also true.

Even in addition to envy, there are so many complaints.

In his view, since Hua Xin created a new study as soon as he returned to Xuchang, he must have had a draft as early as in Jiangdong.

But with the belly draft, Hua Xin didn't reveal half of it to herself... This is somewhat meaningless.

"New learning?"

He Yan didn't understand the meaning of Sun Quan's words, but warmly invited Sun Quan and said, "Since you admire him, why doesn't Sun Qiulu follow me to study in Hua Gong Xu Chang?"

As soon as these words came out, Sun Quan's expression became stiff.

To Xuchang?Who is going to Xuchang!Can I come back after that?
Reluctantly, Sun Quan had no choice but to apologize: "I really want to learn from Duke Hua, but now there are still mountains and more unclear, so I can't return to the court to return."

Fearing that He Yan would continue to pester him, Sun Quan asked about Xinxue again: "Marquis Shen is in Xuchang, do you have any research on Xinxue?"

"no!"

He Yan shook his head resolutely: "I'm not familiar with Xinxue!"

"So it is."

Sun Quan shook his head slightly, with some regret and some joy.

It is a pity that the news of the new school cannot be found.

I am delighted because He Yan is unwilling to even study new learning, which is enough to show that he is a brave and foolhardy person.Negotiating with such a person, then one's own side can undoubtedly grasp more initiative.

The two continued to chat without saying a word until the banquet was over and the guests dispersed.When only He Yan, Sun Quan, and Zhou Yu were left in the tent, the leisurely conversation was cut off.

He Yan poured himself a glass of Jiangnan specialty rice wine, and the slightly turbid wine made a small splash in the glass, and then slowly returned to its place in the light and shadow.

"You two, I have listened to the music, watched the dance, and eaten the food. The only thing missing now is the fine wine."

"Before you drink this glass of wine, if you have anything to say, say it as soon as possible, otherwise I will leave."

Putting down the jug, He Yan lifted the wine glass under his nose and took a sniff, an intoxicated expression appeared on his face.

The wine glass moved down slightly, and when it reached his mouth, He Yan raised his head slightly.

Just as he was about to pour the wine down his throat, Zhou Yu finally said, "Marquis Shen, this matter in Wan County..."

"Wan County?"

He Yan's arm paused, and after putting down the wine glass, he looked at Zhou Yu with interest: "This Wan county was naturally brought down by me, does Gongjin have any objections?"

Zhou Yu chuckled lightly: "Marquis Shen, if you say that, it will be difficult to talk about it."

"If we can't talk about it, then we won't talk about it."

He Yan shook his head, as if he was amused by the stupidity of Zhou Yu's words: "I've been thinking about what your chips are, but I didn't expect that apart from one "dead fish and broken net", there is only Wan County that is not in my hands. .”

Seeing that He Yan made his words clear, Sun Quan also joined the negotiation: "Why does Marquis Shen do this? Since you have experienced the battle of Guandu, you must understand the general trend of the world."

"If you don't go all out to deal with the north now, you won't have a chance in the future."

He Yan listened to Sun Quan's words in boredom: "Is there any more? Why is it still this way?"

Seeing that Sun Quan wanted to prove his point repeatedly on this point, He Yan stopped him unceremoniously: "I am more familiar with the affairs in Hebei than you. Even if you want to analyze the situation in the north, I should come to discuss with you. Analyze, not you and I analyze."

He Yan got up and took the wine glass and came to Zhou Yu and sat down face to face with him: "Gong Jin, would you like to play a game of chess with me?"

Zhou Yu stretched out his right arm: "Please be careful."

He Yan took the largest food tripod on Zhou Yu's table and put it on top: "This is Yuan Shao."

"Ah."

Zhou Yu's expression was normal, and he didn't object.

Afterwards, He Yan took another pottery dish that was only half the size of the food cauldron: "This is Sikong."

Finally, He Yan put his wine glass under the pottery dish again: "This is Mrs. Sun."

He Yan put one hand on the food tripod representing Yuan Shao, and one hand on the wine cup representing Sun.

"Gong Jin's meaning is nothing more than the combination of the two, and the north and south attack."

"But it's a pity..."

While speaking, He Yan had already overturned the wine glass, and the wine immediately covered the entire table and flowed down the edge.

"Sun family, it's not the old Sun family anymore."

"The entire Jiangdong is not qualified to participate in this battle now."

"Sun Fu, Sun Hao, Sun Yi..."

"The Sun family today is nothing more than a mess of loose sand."

He Yan stood up and looked at Sun Quan, who was blushing, and immediately revealed all the bad things about the Sun family: "Now, those uncles and brothers of Sun Tiaolu, are they really willing to listen to you?"

"In your eyes, this Jiangdong may belong to your elder brother Sun Ce. But in their eyes, this Jiangdong belongs to the entire Sun family."

"Do they really obey you?"

He Yan's words are heartbreaking, but this is Sun Quan's real situation.

Originally, the Jiangdong aristocratic family disapproved of Sun Shi, but now even Sun Shi himself started to toss, who would mess up if he didn't?
If it hadn't been for Zhou Yu's support, Sun Quan couldn't even gather enough troops to attack Wan County, so why did he say that he went north to attack Cao Cao?
"Shenhou, you are wrong."

Zhou Yu gently wiped off the wine on the table with his hands: "The Sun family is just a little unstable because of the sudden death of Marquis Wu. When the general who seeks captives pacifies Jiangdong, there will naturally be room to go north!"

"And that time must come sooner than Sikong completely wiped out Yuan Shao!"

"So, does Marquis Shen think that Jiang Dong has no ability to participate in the war?"

……

"Yes! I know that!"

To Zhou Yu's surprise, He Yan admitted this point openly.

"With you, Zhou Gongjin, as the general who seeks captives, I'm afraid it will take four years... no! Within three years, Jiangdong can be governed in an orderly manner, and this time is obviously not enough for Sikong to completely take Hebei."

"The issue is……"

He Yan asked the key point: "Does Mrs. Sun really want Yuan Shao to defeat Sikong?"

This question made both Sun Quan and Zhou Yu stunned.

Yes!

If Yuan Shao really wiped out Cao Cao, to what extent would his power expand?At that time, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu can really resist Yuan Shao who occupies the entire north?
Don't forget, Yuan Shao is not Cao Cao.

Yuan Shao's prestige in the aristocratic family is extremely high.If Yuan Shao occupied the north, then the Jiangdong family would definitely throw themselves into Yuan Shao's embrace, crying and abandoning the Sun family.

From Sun's point of view, in fact, Cao Cao occupied the north even if Yuan Shao occupied the north!
It's just that, because everyone is busy with the situation at hand, they ignore it.

"So, it's better to be more frank and don't get entangled in the ownership of Lujiang County."

He Yan finally put the core interests of both parties on the table and no longer concealed them.

"Whether it is the Sun family or Sikong, it takes time."

"Sikong needs to deal with Yuan Shao, and even plot Hebei. But you need to stabilize the internal and eliminate the rebellious party."

"You can't help the former, but Sikong can help you with the latter."

"But you have to get something in exchange!"

He Yan shook his finger: "Don't use Wan County or "dead fish and broken nets" as an issue. If you are so dishonest, then I will leave now."

Sun Quan and Zhou Yu can use Yuan Shao as a tool to threaten He Yan, and He Yan can also use this tool to threaten Sun Quan and Zhou Yu.

At worst, everyone will stop playing, and directly hand over the world to Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao and the Sun family simply died together, it was nothing more than the difference between an early death and a late death.

Isn't it just "the fish dies and the net breaks"?

It's as if no one knows how to play hooligans...

cut!
