We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?
Chapter 289 Sun Shangxiang, steal your wife?
As a result, the coalition forces of Sun and Liu defeated Cao's army in Chibi, and from then on, the three kingdoms were established.
After the Battle of Chibi, Lu Su was often compared by Sun Quan to Deng Yu, the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty! The post of Zan Military Colonel was also specially created for him.
After Zhou Yu's death, Sun Quan adopted Zhou Yu's advice during his lifetime and ordered Lu Su to lead an army of 4,000 men on Zhou Yu's behalf. Because of his good command of the army, the army soon grew to more than 10,000 men.
Then, according to the needs of the political and military situation at that time, he appointed him as the prefect of Hanchang and granted him the title of partial general.
After Lu Su followed Sun Quan and captured Wancheng, he was awarded the title of General Hengjiang and guarded Lukou. After that, Soochow captured the three counties of Jingzhou. Lu Su led his troops to resist Jingzhou's defender Guan Yu and invited him to meet him.
When attending a meeting alone, he was eloquent and left the other party speechless.
Facing such a talent, Xi Yu was naturally happy.
In fact, he had invited Lu Su to come to Qingxu in his early years, but the other party did not seize the opportunity, and he never experienced the scene where literati gathered together to express their opinions on the affairs of their country, country, and world, and they often became red-faced.
In addition, it was learned that this person did not live long and would die within three years at most, so he gave up his thoughts.
Of course, no one can say for sure about lifespan.
Just like Sun Bofu right now.
Because of his own existence, part of the trajectory of this history has changed. Even if Sun Boxu is still alive today, he is not surprised.
However, perhaps because of his age, Sun Boxu has become more reserved and calm compared to his previous behavior.
If not for this, Lu Su would not have been sent to Xuzhou as a guest.
As for the purpose of being a guest...it's not that difficult.
Mainly because Sun Quan wanted to expand the business routes in Jiangdong.
As we all know, Jiangdong has been a land of wealth since ancient times, but this does not mean that the wealth here can be compared with that of Qingxu today.
Under the governance of Xi Yu, Qingxu has the richest product resources in the world.
In addition, it attaches great importance to commerce and explores trade routes. It has already had close contacts with neighboring Jingzhou, Yanzhou, and Yangzhou... and even some of their distinctive products from Jiangdong are relatively common here.
In addition, commodities and specialties from barbarian lands such as Xianbei, Qiangdi, Nanman, and Wuhuan can also be found everywhere.
Lu Su was amazed and envious, but also a little embarrassed.
I have never been to Qingxu before, and everything I know about this place is hearsay, so I always think one-sidedly that no matter how rich this place is, it will only be slightly better than Jiangdong.
After all, it was prejudice that killed people. Now that he was in Qingxu's land, he could see clearly that there was no comparison between the two places. They, Jiangdong, really had no right to talk about being rich.
Thinking about it, it was because the Lord understood this that he sent himself here as a guest.
Lu Su, who just saw Qing Xu's words, felt deeply embarrassed at the moment. He felt that he was about to be picked up by everyone.
There is no other reason than that I can’t understand what the people around me are saying!
Yes, I think Lu Su is also the most trusted and important counselor around the lord. He may not be as famous as Zhuge Kongming and others, but he is more than enough. However, when he arrived in Qingxu, Jiang Ran could only listen to what the other party said. A little knowledge.
This was the result after he frowned and thought for a long time.
In desperation, he could only smile and look for help from the Jiangdong officials and even the merchants who came with him.
However, besides toasting each other with a few people around him, there seemed to be nothing else he could do.
Soon, after three rounds of wine and five dishes, the original laughter and laughter at the banquet began to fade away. Everyone gradually lost the intention to talk to each other. Instead, their words became more inquiring and probing.
Listening to the occasional business-related topics coming from below, Xiyu, who was sitting in the first place, remained silent.
He had already made arrangements before the banquet started. There was no need for him to come forward personally for such small matters, Kong Ming could make the decision himself.
Under Xi Yu's guidance for many years, even if Zhuge Liang has never eaten pork, how can he never see a pig running?
In addition, he is quite smart, and he is really impeccable in handling such matters.
Based on their understanding and trust of him, Guo Jia and others sat aside without saying a word. They poured wine and chatted with each other, which was not very comfortable.
"Why is it so quiet all of a sudden? Come on! Keep drinking!"
“That’s right, it’s a rare time for you all to come here, so be sure to drink a few more drinks and try this Xuzhou delicacy on the way!”
"······"
"That's right, you guys, our mutton in Xuzhou is one of the best!"
Everyone spoke to me to comfort the many guests from Jiangdong.
One of the generals, while speaking, decisively pulled out a dagger from his waist, and then in front of everyone, stabbed it into the plate of mutton.
He cut the whole plate of mutton into two with a slight cut in the middle of the meat, and one could even see clearly the smooth surface of the cut bones.
this······
Lu Su and the people around him looked at each other, and the same words couldn't help but flash through his mind - this knife is a bit sharp!
No!
It should be extremely beneficial.
After all...as the meat is split into two, the scratches on the plate are clearly visible!
This was the result of the general's caution.
Yes, military generals have always been heroic and don't care much about many things. They don't know what it means to chew slowly when eating. But such a being actually behaves as gracefully as a scholar-strategist when cutting meat. This That speaks for itself.
From this point, we can also see from the side how sharp the dagger in the general's hand is!
When they were in Jiangdong, they had never seen a neat and smooth dagger that could cut flesh and bones effortlessly without any hindrance.
Lu Su was extremely shocked.
He never imagined that even after arriving in Qingxu and seeing the prosperity of this place with his own eyes, there would still be things that surprised him.
The wealth in Qingxu is far more astonishing than what he saw just a second ago!
Yes, he now has the feeling that Qingxu Erdi is refreshing his knowledge of it every moment.
Even a dagger casually hung on the waist of a general can be so sharp and hard, which shows how rich its physical resources are.
In his opinion, these daggers can no longer be regarded as mortal objects!
Of course, having seen some big scenes, he didn't show much surprise. He just wrote it down secretly and planned to talk to his lord after he went back.
Now that we are here, we can’t just talk about business. We must know everything that we should understand and pay attention to!
"Thank you for your kindness. We have been in Guibao Land for a few days. I have been deeply touched here and learned a lot, especially how to do business, how to set up a chamber of commerce, select shareholders, how to invest in shares... None If you don’t tell me, I will be amazed and amazed!”
"Who would have thought that the two places are just across the sea from each other, but they seem like two different worlds. Such a huge difference is really disappointing."
After saying that, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Kong Ming sat opposite, picked up the wine cup, and took a sip.
Guo Jia and others didn't even care about this situation.
Each one of them only cared about drinking and having fun, showing a carefree and carefree attitude.
With Kong Ming in charge, they don't need to worry.
"Zijing is serious."
Zhuge Liang replied with a smile, then stood up slightly and leaned forward. The feather fan in his hand stirred up the breeze under his moderate rhythm, making him look elegant.
"Since you are here, it means that Jiangdong's wealth is not far behind Qingxu's."
"But then again, to be honest, the ways of doing business that you have learned in recent days are only superficial. This is not because we don't want to teach you everything, but because we are not sure about Jiangdong's position."
"If Jiangdong is willing to treat each other sincerely, then I, Qingxu Land, will naturally do my best for my friend!"
"You know, this is a place where even the emperor praised it and settled down. If you really learn the essence, you will have a promising future!"
When Lu Su heard this, his face stiffened slightly, and he felt extremely uneasy in his heart.
I have to say that this person spoke very rigorously, but with profound meaning.
It seems that it hopes that the two places can live in harmony and make progress together, but in fact, they are trying to unite -
No!
To be more precise, it should be that he was thinking of getting Jiang Dong to surrender.
Moreover, as long as they can submit, they will definitely teach you everything they know, and they will tell you everything they know!
If not, I don't think the other party would mention the emperor's name on such an occasion.
How the emperor arrived at Xiapi may not be clear to ordinary people, but he knew it clearly.
However, this is not the time to talk about this now.
After all, he came here with the intention of making good friends with the other party.
But it's limited to friendship. As for submission, it's obviously not up to you.
But what the other party said was very clear.
If you want to learn how to do business, you can, but if you are just a friendly army, then you will only be able to learn superficial things. This may be because you have never fought with the north since Hefei, Jiangdong.
Back then, Xiyu's bank had just been established and there were only a few dozen ships. It was extremely difficult and dangerous to go to other vassal states.
At this time, the first person to stand up and agree to open the pass and allow the banker's ships to pass was Bo Fu!
It was also from that time that banks slowly opened up water trade, which led to today's glory.
If not, it is still unclear what Lu Su's trip will be like.
Not to mention Xi Yu's face, it is estimated that this banquet may not even be held now!
And Lu Su also visited Taixue as early as the first day he came here.
Only then did he suddenly realize that Xiyu was not only extremely reassured about Qingxu and Qingxu every time he went out to fight, but he also had other things on his mind.
He clearly remembered that in the past two years, while Xi Yu was fighting Cao Pi, he also went south to sell grain and grass.
At that time, I didn't understand why the opponent's Qingxu Land had so much food, and how he ensured the stability of the rear while fighting.
Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I understand how quiet and peaceful this place is, how united and friendly it is, and how convinced Xi Yu is of each other's words!
With the visit of just a few days, the more Lu Su understood the grand scene of this place, the more he felt that this place was unfathomable.
Therefore, after listening to Kong Ming's words, he did not dare to say a word "no".
Especially when the other party mentioned the word "Emperor", he already regarded Xiapi as the capital of the country. With words, the status of the entire Qingxu area rose, becoming something they had to climb up to in Dongjiang.
At the same time, Xi Yu's identity also rose to a higher level, becoming a person in the world who, besides the emperor, even the lord had to look up to.
As expected of Zhuge Kongming, he is really powerful!
"I already know what Kong Ming said, but I am not the one who can make the decision on this matter. When I return to Jiangdong, I will definitely tell my lord, and it will be up to him to decide the outcome."
"Before coming down, my lord had mentioned the matter of asking for the post of Grand Sima several years ago. I wonder if he can do so now?"
"Now that there is civil strife in Jingzhou, my lord also wants to pacify Jingzhou and fight Liu Bei in a battle!"
"Hahaha, whether it's the Grand Sima or the Grand General, aren't they both the official positions in charge of the world's troops? If we really want to say the difference, it's just the division of labor."
Zhuge Liang looked up to the sky and smiled, and then said: "I think that instead of focusing on these so-called false duties, we should think about how to bring peace and security to the people in the territory."
"When we live in troubled times, what we should really do is to maintain our territory in this turmoil and at the same time establish a good political power. This can not only ensure our own prestige, but also rely on it to expand our territory and make achievements."
"Liang thinks that compared to a mere great Sima, this is the right path!"
"Of course, my lord also knows the situation in Jiangdong and knows that you are in trouble, so he asked the emperor for instructions early and specially made Bo Fu the Marquis of Wu. I wonder what Zijing thinks?"
"Don't dare!"
Lu Su waved his hands repeatedly, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Sheng Guogong is righteous and righteous. He has made great contributions to the Han Dynasty. He also single-handedly developed Qingxu and Qingxu. It is well governed and the people live and work in peace and contentment. It is really impressive." admire!"
“There are three reasons why I was ordered to come here this time. First, I wish to witness with my own eyes the chaotic world that was about to fall apart with my own efforts, and then re-glue it back together, making it glow with little sparks, waiting for the majestic appearance of Lord Sheng Guo who set a prairie fire! "
"Er Yuan can learn the bank's business strategies, even if they are just superficial, it will be of great benefit to the entire Jiangdong."
"As for this third one... I didn't dare to speak until today, I don't know..."
Lu Su did not say what it was about, but left it in suspense and asked Zhuge Liang to blink, wondering whether he should continue to ask.
He turned to look at Xi Yu in the main seat and couldn't make up his mind for a moment.
After all, he couldn't be sure what the other party's request was. Faced with an unknown request, he would naturally not make any arbitrary decisions.
"tell me the story."
Xi Yu played with the wine cup in his hand and glanced at the other party.
Lu Su nodded immediately and said, "Okay, so Zijing will tell you directly."
As he spoke, he did not forget to stand up and bow down to Xi Yu.
To be honest, Xi Yu knew that there were only a handful of words to say at tonight's banquet, so he couldn't figure out the other party's mentality from those few short sentences.
I don't even know if there is anything I said that was not right, which would annoy the other person. I am very worried in my heart.
It’s just that...it shouldn’t be possible, right?
You didn’t say anything particularly outrageous? And since I arrived at Xiapi, my attitude has always been very respectful and restrained.
Thinking about it, the next step should not make the other party dissatisfied.
Thinking of this, Lu Su's body immediately relaxed a lot, and his heart was no longer as nervous and uneasy as before.
"This matter is not a big deal, I just want to ask Sheng Guo to facilitate a good thing!"
Lu Su clasped his hands in his fists, bent down deeply, and continued: "My lord has a direct younger sister, named An, with the courtesy name Shangxiang. She is only eight years younger than the Duke this year, and she is waiting to be married."
"She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She has a strong personality, courage and strategy, and both intelligence and beauty. She is as beautiful as a fairy. She is respectfully called Xiao Ji Empress by the elders in Jiangdong. My Lord believes that only the Duke of the country can match her."
"Furthermore, I heard that Duke Sheng Guo has a wife named Hu Yi, named Lu, whose martial arts are unparalleled in the world. There is also a lady named Cao named Yishui. She is extremely intelligent. I think she is the same as my lord's younger sister."
"I wonder... what does Duke Sheng Guo think?"
After hearing what he said, the eyes of the people around him instantly lit up.
Each of them looked at Xi Yu with a bit of weirdness and smile in their eyes.
Isn't it? Still marry? How many are these?
After everyone counted carefully, they discovered that in just a few years, the lord actually had ten children.
And all of them are boys.
It is also strange to say that I don't know whether it is because the lord's bloodline is too strong or because of other reasons, but there is no girl among these ten children.
Even the gifts they caught at the Zhou Zhou Banquet were either classic Confucian books or ink, or the crossbows and swords that were necessary for military commanders.
The most exaggerated thing is the eldest son Lie, but at the age of eight, he can already draw a bow and shoot arrows. He is not timid at all when sitting on a bloody horse, but looks calm and motionless.
If he hadn't been too young to reach the stirrups, he would have galloped astride the horse.
However, at the age of eight, he could already see some of his father's heroic appearance. When he grows up, he will not know how majestic and heroic he will be.
This is just one of the children, but I know that the talents of the other children must be extraordinary.
As a result, they may end up with dozens more little lords in Qingxu and Qingxu!
Whether he was surprised or amazed, while everyone was thinking secretly, Xi Yu couldn't help but blink his eyes, and his mind wandered.
Sun Shangxiang! Isn't this Liu Bei's real wife?
Are you trying to steal someone else's wife? Not so good?
But that little girl's skills seem to be really good, so it's no wonder Liu Bei has a headache.
Thinking of some of the jokes about Sun Shangxiang and Liu Bei he had seen before, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
Historically, it is said that after the Battle of Chibi, Sun Quan married his sister to Liu Bei.
However, Sun Shangxiang was quick-witted, strong and brave, just like her brothers. She was surrounded by more than a hundred guards and maids, all of whom wielded swords and had extraordinary skills.
Even for a person like Liu Bei, he would feel scared every time he wanted to enter the inner chamber after marriage.
Therefore, Fazheng once persuaded Liu Bei to keep a distance from Sun Shangxiang to avoid being assassinated.
Couple assassination?
The first time he saw this statement, Xi Yu almost laughed out loud.
Could there be anything more ridiculous than this?
