My husband Zhuge Kongming

In mid-April, Wu County.

Sun Quan was speechless when he saw Zhou Yu who was exhausted.

He was very happy that Zhou Yu could come back. Originally, he thought... Zhou Yu would never come back.

However, the news the other party brought back really made people unhappy.

The assassination failed. Although the other party did not have enough evidence to identify Zhou Yu, it also angered the other party and threatened to ask them to send a proton.

This news was extremely humiliating for Sun Quan, who only had half of Wu County left.

Next to him, Lu Xun could only sigh, the situation was not at all up to him.

"Okay, Gong Jin will go back to the mansion to rest first." Sun Quan did not scold Zhou Yu in person, because he knew how much risk Zhou Yu had taken.

Zhou Yu sighed, "No, it's just that Chu An has designated a candidate for the proton he wants."

"Who?" Sun Quan's eyes widened.

"Shaoer!"

"What! Shao'er!" Sun Quan slammed the table, "She, how dare she!"

Zhou Yu was silent and didn't answer.

The world in Chu'an is much larger than half of Jiangdong in Wu County.

Lu Xun was also stunned. He knew that this meant that he could not refuse at all.

However, Sun Shao's special status is that he is Sun Ce's only bloodline left in the world. If Sun Shao is sent away, then those veteran generals will probably go crazy.

"Yu thought a lot along the way. If this mission fails, it will definitely end like this. Moreover, I, Jiangdong, cannot refuse Chu An's request, otherwise Gan Ning and Huo Jun's army will invade the border." Zhou Yu smiled bitterly, "In this case, Not to mention recuperating, whether we can hold on to the remaining areas is a matter of debate."

Sun Quan gritted his teeth and veins popped out on his forehead.

He became the state shepherd, and nothing went as planned.

Now, he actually wants to send his brother's child as a hostage?
However, Zhou Yu was right, if there was a fight, he would have no chance of winning.

Furthermore, he couldn't count on Cao Cao now. Cao Cao's brother Xiahou Dun was still in his hands.

Then Sun Quan gritted his teeth and said, "Do you really want to send Shaoer there?"

Zhou Yu closed his eyes and sighed, "I have to give it away."

Sun Quan was furious, "Gong Jin!"

"General, don't be anxious." Zhou Yu organized his words, "This time I went to Chu'an to arrange the assassination. Yu stayed in Jingzhou for nearly two months and saw a lot of news."

Sun Quan was sullen and did not answer.

Lu Xun below was also very curious and wanted to know what Zhou Yu's so-called news was.

"In the entire Jingzhou, all the aristocratic families are very convinced of Chu Anjun, even more than Liu Biao, the pastor of Jingzhou." Zhou Yu said, "This is one of them."

Sun Quan frowned even more. Since Chu Zhi, the Jingzhou family has received a lot of benefits from Chu Anjun. Not a lot of benefits, but benefits that can increase the family's wealth many times!Therefore, it is understandable that various aristocratic families believe in the female child.

"Secondly, the land of Chu'an has the appearance of a prosperous age." Zhou Yu said again, "its laws and regulations and land grant system can also be the foundation for our Jiangdong to strengthen the people and the army!"

"what!"

"Thirdly, a large part of the reason for the battle between Xiahou Dun and Liu Bei's army was their defeat in armaments. The Jingzhou army's armor was much better than that of Cao's army, and the method of manufacturing this armor was invented by Chu Anjun. Han merchants control it.”

After Zhou Yu finished speaking, he mentioned what he asked Xiahou Dun again, and Sun Quan's eyes widened even more.

He didn't quite understand before, Xiahoudun was a veteran at any rate, how could he be captured alive?Now there is an explanation.

The benefits of armor are so terrifying.

"What the governor means is that we should learn these manufacturing techniques from Chu An?" Lu Xun easily understood what Zhou Yu meant.

"Yes." Zhou Yu nodded, "On the way back, Yu also thought about it for half a month. If you lose, you are defeated, but you have to know where the defeat is. Only in this way can you turn the tide of the battle around in the next battle. In the past, Gou Jian was lying on his back to taste his courage. , endured for several years, and only then did we have three thousand Yue Jia to destroy Wu."

Sun Quan's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

His father and brother founded Jiangdong's foundation, but he lost it and only half of the county was left. How should he explain to his father and brother?
"What the Governor said is true." Lu Xun sighed and said sincerely to Sun Quan, "The Qin State was not strong in the pre-Qin period. Only after Lord Shang's reforms did the Qin Dynasty become strong. Now that Jiangdong is weak, it has reached its most critical moment. At this moment, we need to endure the changes to have a chance of survival."

Sun Quan still didn't speak.He knew that what Zhou Yu and Lu Xun said were right.

The situation in Jiangdong is so bad now, so we can only send Sun Shao there as a hostage in exchange for time for peaceful development!

But, how should he explain to his elder brother!

How to explain to his mother!

How to explain to Jiangdong’s old ministers!

So what, he has to explain it to himself!

"Zijing is now working under Chu Anjun and is the chief executive of Xinghan Commercial Bank. Shao'er will not suffer in the past." Zhou Yu added, "Besides, Shaoer is very talented, and Yu will find a way to ask Zijing for help." , let Shaoer become the disciple of Mr. Chu An, if so, you can get all Chu An’s things."

Sun Quan opened his mouth and then asked, "Can this be done?"

"Zijing said that most of Chu Anjun's apprentices today are the children of Liu Bei and his generals. There are some who are talented, but there are only a few of them. Then Chu Anjun has inherited the learning of others, and he always thinks about it. We need to pass on these skills.”

Lu Xun started planning, and then said, "If it really succeeds, even if Jiangdong ceases to exist one day, Mr. Shao will revive the Sun family."

Sun Quan was moved.

Yes, someone from his family was already serving as a hostage for Cao Cao. It would not be a surprise to send another one to Jingzhou at this time.

But this person is Sun Shao.

But if Sun Shao could worship Lord Chu An as his teacher and learn the strange people's inheritance, the land of Jiangdong might have a future.

"Furthermore, Jingzhou is about to undergo great changes. If we show weakness and pretend to be friends with Chu An, we can buy more time for Jiangdong." Zhou Yu added weight.

Jiangdong's foundation was lost and fell into the hands of Sun Quan and him.

Sun Quan was naturally tormented in his heart and wished he could cut the Jingzhou people into pieces.

But he understands that one day, Jiangdong will be able to restore his foundation, but it will be a completely different foundation from today.

At that time, even if Sun Quan wanted to conquer Jingzhou, he would probably not be able to do so.

On the throne, Sun Quan was dejected. He could not refute Zhou Yu's words at all.

So he waved his hand and motioned for Zhou Yu and Lu Xun to go down first, and he wanted to think about it for himself.

The two of them resigned.

"Thank you for the hard work this time, Commander." Seeing Zhou Yu's frosty face, Lu Xun also sighed.

Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "For Jiangdong's sake, it is imperative to implement reforms in the future, and Boyan needs to work hard to do so."

"That's natural." Lu Xun nodded.

In the past few days, he had seen Sun Quan go step by step with difficulty, but Sun Quan still treated him very well and made him a confidant. His desire to be a counselor and realize his ambition became stronger and stronger in his heart.

"Okay, Yu is going back first, so Boyan should go back too."

"Ah."

……

Chuan.

A group of people were walking on the road, but it was Zhang Xiu, the envoy sent by Cao Cao.

It was Zhang Xiu's first time here, and he was stunned when he saw that the wheat in Chu'an was growing much better than what he had seen along the way.

Is this Chu An so powerful?

Until he saw Xiahou Dun, who had gained a lot of weight, and began to wonder whether Xiahou Dun was suffering or enjoying happiness.

"General!" Zhang Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Xiahou Dun was alive and well. At least, he was not suffering.

Xiahou Dun saw Zhang Xiu and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work. What do you want me to say, my lord?"

Chapter 2, as titled.

See you tomorrow.
