Chapter 116 Sun Quan Gives Food, Sisters, and Daughters (Subscribe!)
Three days later.

Jiangdong.

Jianye.

Lu Xun sent messengers down the river in a boat, and arrived at Jianye last night.

After Sun Quan got the news, he kept silent, just walked into the trainer's room silently, and stayed up all night.

In the early morning of the next day, he called a group of ministers to the main hall of the palace to ask questions.

The courtiers who are still in Jianye are basically present

of course
Even though his body was sluggish, the anger in his heart was still there.

Lu Ziming.
You have failed my trust in you!
and also
Why is it Liu Gongsi again?
Liu Chan Liu Chan!

The more he heard the name, the angrier he became, and the more he looked at it, the angrier he became.

He Liu Bei can give birth to such a good son, why can't his Sun Zhongmou make a living?
"Everyone, the police report urgently, everyone, just wait and see."

Lu Xun wrote the memorial table, as well as Liu Chan's table letter and alliance letter, in triplicate, and all of them were distributed to the officials.

Zhang Zhao was already old, and he was short of breath at the moment, his face was frightened, and his skinny figure made people think that he might go to see Lord Taishan in the next second.

"My lord, Jiangdong is in danger!"

Hearing Zhang Zhao's words, Sun Quan frowned.

I think back then, before the Battle of Chibi, he was the one who said these depressing words. I didn't expect that after so many years, the problem of saying depressing words still hasn't changed!

"My lord, you should seek peace with Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong. What he said in the form means that you agree to everything, and it doesn't matter!"

Yes to all?

Then am I going to be a dog for Xuande?

His face was livid, and his tone was filled with anger.

"Everyone, do you have any ideas?"

Zhuge Jin observed Sun Quan's angry appearance, and holding a wat board, he stepped forward and said:
"My lord, in the opinion of my servants, it is an extravagant hope to seek Jingzhou. It is reasonable to seek peace with Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong. I'm waiting for a discussion, then there's still something to talk about, but if we can't discuss it, what can I do if I wait to die? Is my Jiangdong man not bloody?"

"Not bad!"

Sun Quan nodded heavily upon hearing this.

"That's what a courtier said!"

He glanced at Zhang Zhao and said, "Although we are weak now, we are not in a desperate situation. We are just retreating to Xiakou. Cao Cao has already raised his army to suppress Jingzhou, and Guan Yunchang has no time for him. We have to face Cao Wei's army, why should I worry about it?"

As the lord, he cannot be chaotic first.

Morale is very important, popular support is very important, military spirit is very important!
His words set the tone for the duet between the monarch and his subjects.

That is not pessimistic surrender, but perseverance. It is okay to seek peace, but you must have backbone!
"Liu Chan's child is hateful, but he is a smart man. Cao Wei is powerful, and his family can't match him. That's why he asked us for an alliance, in order to fight Cao Cao together."

Sun Quan's words made him forced to form an alliance after losing the battle, and Liu Chan begged him to form an alliance.

At the very least, it sounds good.

"Since he has something to ask for, he must not dare to be too presumptuous. Besides, I saw that there is room for tact in the contents of his written statement and alliance letter. In today's palace, you and my monarch and ministers will discuss one or two things. , which ones need to be changed, which ones can be promised, and which ones must not be promised.”

After losing a battle on the battlefield, it is undoubtedly a dream to get it back at the negotiating table.

But fortunately, the opposite side can be regarded as asking him for an alliance, right?

You, Liu Gongsi, show some sincerity.

The benefits have been brought out, and my Sun Zhongmou can let the past go, you and my uncle and nephew joined hands and beat Cao Mengde hand in hand.

Isn't it beautiful?

After Sun Quan finished speaking, His Royal Highness and his officials knew what they should do.

Zhang Zhao had been cast a cold look by Sun Quan earlier, and knew that he could no longer speak in frustration. He honestly checked the form and the alliance letter, thinking about which of the above conditions needed to be changed and which ones did not.

But in fact, for him, what if these conditions are agreed?

Will the interests of his Zhang family be harmed?
Anyway
It's all because the Sun family is in a hurry!
After a while of deep thought and discussion by His Royal Highness and his ministers, Gu Yong stood up holding the wat board, and said: "If you are determined not to agree, for example, you are making a confession to Liu Xuande, this is definitely not allowed."

Jiang Dong was a minister to Cao Cao Nabiao before, and he was also a minister to the Han Emperor. He was originally a minister of the Han Dynasty, so why not?

But you, Liu Bei, are not the Emperor of Han. If you surrender to you, Liu Xuande, then what is Sun Quan?
Han Chen or your Liu Bei vassal?
"Yes, this item must not be agreed."

"There is also this item, returning the land of the three counties of Jingzhou. I originally lent Nanyang County to Liu Bei. If he doesn't return it to me, he wants to cut off my land in Jingzhou? This item is also unacceptable! "

All the ministers, you have a word, and I have a word, and analyze clearly the conditions of Liu Chan's letter and alliance letter, those that can be won, those that must not be agreed, and those that are harmless and can be agreed.

It became clear immediately.

"Fu Shiren was originally a subject of Liu Bei, so why not return him?"

The reason why Fu Shiren was treated kindly before is that Mi Fang has not surrendered yet, and now there is no possibility of Mi Fang surrendering, and it is even more impossible to plan Jingzhou.

Fu Shiren is no longer important to Jiangdong, he is a dispensable person.

Even those who are dispensable, then go back.

"As for Madam Sun"

Zhuge Jin looked at Sun Quan cautiously.

"It depends on what my little sister wants. If she is willing to go back, she might as well not. If she doesn't want to, can I force her?"

"Lord!"

Zhuge Jin knew that Sun Quan didn't like what she said next.

But as a subject, not only should you say what your lord likes, but at critical moments, you must also say what your lord doesn't like.

"We can reject some of the ten conditions of Prince Liu Chan of Hanzhong, but we can't reject all of them. If they are all rejected, what is my sincerity in Jiangdong? For some irrelevant matters, the king must know how to choose."

Irrelevant?

Sun Quan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Little sister is the flesh and blood relative of my mother and compatriots. It doesn't matter where she comes from."

"Compared with the lord's hegemony, no matter how close you are to your blood relatives, it doesn't matter."

Sun Quan's eyes narrowed slightly, he exuded a dangerous aura all over his body, all the officials in the hall held their breath, as if they were afraid that the fish in Chi would be harmed by making noise.

"Zhuge Jin!"

He yelled at Zhuge Jin heavily, took a few deep breaths, then clenched his hands into fists, gritted his teeth and said, "Ziyu, as you say, I will talk to Mrs. Sun."

"My lord is wise!"

Zhuge Jin bowed heavily to Sun Quan.

To become a hegemony, one must endure what ordinary people can't bear. What is the matter of Mrs. Sun?
If he can't even bear this, why should he follow Zhuge Jin?

"There is also the matter of grain and grass. It is said in the form that I want Jiangdong to send millions of stones of grain and grass. In the three counties of Jingzhou, there are [-] to [-] soldiers. In addition, Liu Chan also brought tens of thousands of soldiers. The land of the three counties raises [-] to [-] soldiers and horses, and Jingzhou is naturally short of food and grass. If there is no supply of food and grass, I am afraid that Jingzhou's army will not be able to sustain it in a few months."

This was originally Liu Beifang's pain point, but as a condition of the letter, Jiangdong's side wanted to deliver food and grass to raise soldiers for Liu Xuande!

It just doesn't make sense!
"Can you refuse this?"

Use your own grain to raise soldiers for Liu Bei?
How could he, Sun Quan, do such a humiliating thing?
"This is probably Liu Gongsi's core requirement. If we don't send food and grass, I'm afraid that the alliance will be difficult, and it will be difficult for the governor and tens of thousands of Jiang Dongerlang to send them back."

Sun Quan frowned.

"There is too much food and grass in a million shi, discuss with Liu Gongsi and reduce it to 50 shi!"

"promise!"

Holding a pen in his hand, Zhuge Jin brought this item to an end.

"In addition, it is the matter of the marriage agreement."

Zhuge Jin said one more thing.

"Before, the lord asked to marry Yun Chang's daughter, but was rejected. Now, it is a good opportunity for marriage!"

Marriage?

Sun Quan snorted coldly and said, "Could it be that Yunchang is willing to marry his daughter Yinping to my son?"

Zhuge Jin smiled wryly and said, "Yun Chang naturally doesn't want to marry a daughter."

"Then why bring this up?"

"My lord, Yun Chang doesn't marry a daughter, but Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong, is still young and unmarried. Isn't it a good match for my lord to have a daughter who grows up under his knees?"

Want me to marry a daughter?

Or marry that Liu Gongsi?

Sun Quan refused without thinking.

"Son Liu Chan don't want to marry my Sun Quan's daughter!"

Now that he hears the word Liu Chan, he hates it so much, how could he make Liu Chan his son-in-law!
"There is no need to talk about it, there is absolutely no possibility!"

"Lord!"

Zhuge Jin's eyes were serious, and he said: "It's an alliance, so we have to show sincerity. The marriage between the lord and Liu Chan, in exchange for the return of the governor and my Jiangdong Shang Wanerlang, is it clear at a glance?"

Want to send off my sister again, and send off my daughter?

Sun Quan frowned, clenched his fists, his nails were already deep in his flesh.

"Let's discuss this matter!"

Seeing Zhuge Jin's slightly disappointed expression, Sun Quan said, "Don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion!"

Could it be that if one wants to act as a king and overlord, the first cut must be made on the basis of family affection?

Liu Chan's child?

hateful!
