Chapter 286 Lu Su's Condolences

Childlessness has always been the biggest worry for the couple, and the pressure on Tao Zhan is even greater. Childlessness is one of the seven out of seven. Zhan was under great pressure. During the three years of her marriage, she did not know how many temples she visited and how many famous doctors she visited, but none of them worked.

But Zhang Ji, the prefect of Changsha, said it was the man's problem, and cured her husband's illness with a strange prescription, which took just over a month.

It's just that the effect of this prescription is too unacceptable. It requires couples to have intercourse every night. The more times the better, although Tao Zhan is very reluctant, but in order to conceive an heir, she has to endure it. Now she is pregnant. The omen, in a way, also gave her a long sigh of relief.

Although Tao Zhan was very happy in his heart, he still deliberately stretched his face and said: "The eunuch Zhang said at the time that if Yuehong doesn't come, he won't be able to have sex within three months. I want to protect the child, so just bear with it! "

Liu Jing smiled wryly, wondering what aphrodisiac was in Zhang Ji's prescription, which made her lust so high for a month, even if she stopped taking the medicine, it would be difficult to return to normal in a short time, but she repeatedly told her to stop when she saw redness Fang, this is a bit of a deception, do you want to make yourself a concubine?

But there is one thing that must be told to his wife, Liu Jing pondered for a moment and said: "I may go to Jiangdong to see Sun Quan, and I will not be able to return until two or three months later. If the lady is really pregnant, I can use this time to rest. "

Tao Zhan is a reasonable person, knowing that her husband's going to Jiangdong must be a big deal, she nodded silently and said: "My husband is going to Jiangdong, I naturally have no objection, but I am a little worried that Jiangdong will be bad for you. I have a deep hatred with Jiangdong."

"One moment and another moment! And Sun Quan will guarantee my safety. The Jiangdong envoy arrived yesterday and gave me Sun Quan's personal letter."

"When is your husband going to leave?"

Liu Jing thought for a while, "Leave in three days!"

. . . . . . . . .

Jiangdong's envoy is still Lu Su, and the news of Liu Biao's death has spread to Jiangdong. Liu Biao's death is a big news for both Jingzhou and Jiangdong.

If a few years ago, Jiangdong people would celebrate Liu Biao's death with their foreheads and dances in the streets, but today, although Liu Biao's death still makes Jiangdong's monarchs and ministers secretly happy, this kind of joy will not be superficial.

At least the officials pretended to be somewhat sad and sympathetic on the surface, and Sun Quan also specially ordered Lu Su to come to Wuchang as an envoy to express his condolences.

Lu Su can't remember how many times he came to Jiangxia. In the past three years, he came to Jiangxia several times as an envoy to invite Liu Jing to go to Jiangdong, but Liu Jing declined all of them. heart, but did not want to offend Liu Biao.

Liu Biao regarded Jiang Dong as his lifelong enemy until his death. Although he was unable to conquer the East, he would never reconcile with Jiang Dong. He also forbade anyone to secretly communicate with Jiang Dong.

Now that Liu Biao passed away, not only did Liu Jing lose the most critical shackles, but also enabled Liu Jing to communicate with Jiangdong in an open and honest manner, and even Liu Bei was quietly seeking Jiangdong's support.

In the hall of the county government office, Lu Su was chatting with Xu Shu and Dong Yun, intentionally or unintentionally revealing to them the information that Liu Bei secretly communicated with Jiangdong.

"The two of you don't know that at the same time Jiangxia's envoy arrived in Soochow, Liu Qi also sent someone to Jiangdong to contact the condolences. I hope Jiangdong can send an envoy to Jiangling to express condolences. To be honest, there are differences of opinion within Jiangdong."

Xu Shu was secretly surprised that Liu Bei had also secretly contacted Jiangdong. Why?Xu Shu didn't ask about Jiangdong's internal differences, but asked quietly, "Who did Liu Qi send to Jiangdong?"

"I heard that Pang Tong was sent to Soochow."

Lu Su sighed and said, "Right now, there are differences of opinion within Jiangdong. Some people claim that Jiangdong should recognize Liu Qi as the shepherd of Jingzhou, and ask my lord to form an alliance with Liu Qi."

At this time, there was a burst of hearty laughter from the gate, "I don't know who advocates forming an alliance with Jiangling?"

I saw Liu Jing walking into the lobby quickly, followed by his staff member Jia Xu, Jia Xu had a wry smile on his face, he didn't want to come to see the Jiangdong envoy, but Liu Jing repeatedly invited him, so he had no choice but to come with him.

Jia Xu felt that once he showed his face, he would be tied up by Liu Jing. After a year, even if Liu Jing let him go, he would have nowhere to go. However, Liu Jing grasped a principle, that is, his dealings with Cao Cao were not allowed. Participating and showing up made Jia Xu secretly happy.

It's a little embarrassing to be an envoy from Jiangdong today, but it's okay.

Seeing Liu Jing walk in, Lu Su and Xu Shu quickly got up and saluted. Liu Jing smiled and introduced Jia Xu to Lu Su, saying, "This is Jia Wenhe, who was murdered by his enemies and came to Jiangxia to take refuge temporarily."

Lu Su was in awe, this unremarkable black and thin old man turned out to be the famous Jia Xu, he hastily saluted, "Su has heard of Mr. Jia's name for a long time, today we meet, Su Sansheng is lucky."

Jia Xu also responded with a smile and said: "Zijing has worked tirelessly for the Sun Liu Alliance, which is admirable. I hope Zijing can complete his mission and live up to Marquis Wu."

Liu Jing asked everyone to sit down with a smile, and ordered tea to be served again, and then asked with a smile: "I wonder if Zijing can get used to the sweltering heat in Jiangxia?"

Lu Su smiled wryly and said, "Jiangdong is also hot and sweltering. I thought I could come to Jingzhou to escape the heat, but I just ran from one steamer to another."

Everyone burst into laughter, and the atmosphere in the lobby immediately became more relaxed. Liu Jing then changed the topic and asked with a smile, "Who is in Jiangdong who advocates dealing with Jiangling?"

Lu Su was silent, he knew in his heart that if he said it himself, he would have leaked Jiangdong's internal discord to Liu Jing, and the lord Sun Quan did not agree that he could speak it out, but Lu Su thought that sooner or later he would not be able to hide it from Liu Jing, so it would be better to tell Liu Jing Jing told the truth, so that he had a clear understanding of the situation.

After a moment of silence, Lu Su said slowly: "At present, there are two opinions in Jiangdong. One opinion is to support Liu Qi and Liu Bei, with Zhang Changshi and Zhuge joining the army as the main advocates. The legal successor of Jingzhou Mu, and at the same time greatly appreciate Liu Huangshu's fame in the world."

"What is the attitude of Marquis Wu and the military?" Liu Jing asked quietly.

"Marquis Wu's attitude is ambiguous, and the military also agrees with Zhang Changshi's opinion, mainly some veterans headed by Cheng Pu, and those who support the alliance with Jiang Xia are headed by Governor Zhou."

Speaking of this, Lu Su smiled wryly again and said: "The world is often unpredictable. I thought the military would hate the Chaisang War, but the fact is the opposite. The military mostly supports the alliance with Jiangxia, but the civil servants are biased towards Jiangling.

Except for some local prefects who support the alliance with Jiangxia, most of the civil servants in Jiangdong are biased towards Jiangling, probably because of the influence of Zhang Zibu, so I hope that your son and I can set off as soon as possible to Jiangdong to persuade Marquis Wu to support Jiangxia. "

Liu Jing smiled slightly, "Who does Zijing prefer?"

"Of course I firmly support the alliance with Jiangxia. Before I left, Zhang Changshi suggested that I go to Jiangling at the same time. I did not agree, so the Marquis of Wu had to appoint Buzhi to Jiangling to express condolences. When I left for Wuchang, Buzhi also We set off for Jiangling, and if I guessed correctly, Uncle Liu Huang is already on his way to Jiangdong."

. . . . . . .

Lu Su went down to rest, and Liu Jing, Xu Shu, Jia Xu, and Dong Yun continued to discuss Jiangdong affairs. Dong Yun got up and said angrily: "This is really a bit baffling. We are the main force in Jingzhou's fight against Cao's army. In the future, when Cao's army invades south, we will still be the pillars." Liang, Liu Bei retreated without a fight in Fancheng, and now Xiangyang and Jiangxia are separated, how can they resist Cao? They even want to recognize Liu Qi as the shepherd of Jingzhou, is this the so-called sincerity of Jiangdong?"

Xu Shu said with a smile: "Don't be angry with Xiuzhao. The present matter has nothing to do with resisting Cao Cao for the time being. In fact, the internal divisions in Jiangdong are due to their internal factions fighting. As far as I know, there are many factions in Jiangdong, and the interest pattern is very complicated. The Wu faction, the Northern faction, the Kuaiji faction, the Anhui faction, and the Veteran faction and the Young and Strong faction, the struggle is extremely fierce, but in terms of the big factions, they are actually the two factions of Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao. Obviously, Zhou Yu is advocating resistance. Cao, and Zhang Zhao advocate seeking Jing, so there will be disputes between Jiangxia and Nanjun."

Liu Jing nodded, although he was as dissatisfied with Jiang Dong's ups and downs as Dong Yun, but he also agreed with Xu Shu's analysis that this matter did involve Jiang Dong's internal factional struggle.

Liu Jing glanced at Jia Xu again. He really wanted to hear Jia Xu's opinion. Jia Xu smiled slightly and said, "It's normal to have disagreements within Jiangdong. After all, Cao Jun is still far away in Liaodong. I don't know when he will go south. At one point, I thought about forming an alliance with Jiang Xia to deal with future crises, and at the short-sighted point, I considered taking advantage of Jingzhou's three-point opportunity to seek more benefits, but the key is actually Sun Quan."

Liu Jing asked again with interest: "I don't know what Mr. Jia thinks Sun Quan is up to?"

Jia Xu chuckled, "I think forming an alliance is the same as buying and selling. There is also bargaining. If Sun Quan wants to form an alliance with the son, it is normal for him to bring Liu Bei in in order to gain more dominance. The purpose! Just like Xu Chang As Shi just said, pursue the greatest interests."

After listening to Xu Shu and Jia Xu's analysis, Dong Yun was secretly ashamed, and he realized that he was still too immature in his strategy, and he didn't see through Jiang Dong's plan.

But Dong Yun didn't want to be a spectator either, so he asked Jia Xu cautiously, "Does Mr. Jia think that Lu Su knows the real intention of Marquis Wu?"

Jia Xu stroked his beard and squinted his eyes and smiled, "He is Marquis Wu's confidant, so how could he not know what the Lord intends? Even if he didn't think of it, Sun Quan would hint at him, otherwise he would spoil things if he went to Jiangxia as an envoy. Going to Jiangdong is the biggest task of his trip, you might as well take advantage of this, beat Lu Su hard, and let Marquis Wu understand that he is not the only one who can do business in the world."
