Lu Su continued to laugh.

He was the first Jiangdong strategist who proposed the Sun-Liu alliance during the Battle of Chibi. He was always considered close to Xuande Gong and had the reputation of being generous. At this time, he could not hear the meaning of it, and Jian Yong had no choice but to smile like this for a while, and his cheeks hurt.

Not only did his face hurt, but his heart was also panicked.

Just now, he talked with Lu Dai and said that the problem is now in Duke Xuande, and the Marquis of Wu can wait for Duke Xuande's decision to weigh the plans proposed by the Cao and Liu families, including the actual benefits.

However, Duke Xuande suddenly made such a move, which seemed to have nothing to do with the envoy Xu Du, but in fact he kicked the problem back to Jiangdong. He also sent Jian Yong to take a special trip. If he held the problem high, he would show it to everyone in Jiangdong first, and then kicked it back to Wu Hou’s face!

He is worthy of being Xuande Gong! This king shows that he is kind to the world, but in fact he is proficient in the means of power change, so no one can easily gain his advantage.

What the Marquis of Wu always valued was practical interests, but the Cao and Liu families did not give any actual interests at all. Cao Gong instigated the envoy of Xu Du to go south, and at least took out the positions of Duke Wu, Duke Yangzhou and Duke Jingzhou; and what about Duke Xuande? He only said one thing, when my wife was pregnant, Jiangdong was in a dilemma.

Once Jian Yong arrives in Jiangdong, Jiangdong will be in chaos. Lu Su is sure of this.

The Jiangdong regime is essentially a alliance between the Sun family, the Huai and Si martial people and the Jiangdong clan.

When Sun attacked the rebellion, the former two were powerful, while the Jiangdong clan was in a dominant and suppressed position. However, when Wu Hou succeeded to the throne, the situation continued to change.

Many generals below Zhou Lang were gradually fading away. Even if Wu Hou tried his best to promote his new position, everyone had no record of fighting, and the power of the Huai Si Wu people was weakening. The Sun clan power also frequently appeared. There were Luling Prefect Sun Fu, the Luling Prefect Sun Fu, the Nei-joined Cao Cao, the Dingwu General Sun Yang tried to seize power, Danyang Prefect Sun Yi, and Lujiang Prefect Sun He was assassinated one after another.

As a result, the Jiangdong clans occupied more and more military and political positions, and their influence became increasingly greater. How could these Jiangdong clans have great ambitions? What they thought was to maintain their original life as much as possible, expand their clan power, and after the world was pacified, they would rely on their deep roots in the local area to welcome the New Year's reunion. As for whether the new year's surname was Sun, Cao or Liu, it was not bad.

Since this is the case, these characters are as timid as rats to expand to the outside world, and are as fierce as tigers to attack mountains. When the wind blows, they all hope to push Wu Hou to cover up and give themselves room to gain profits.

At this moment, Lu Su thought with some sadness:

Those who encourage Wu Hou to take the blame for the title of Wu Gong and accept the title of Wu Gong may not consider the pros and cons of this title for Wu Hou. Instead, once Wu Hou is called Duke, the situation will rise and the countless officials and clans under him will gain more land, regain guests and slaves.

It is impossible to say that the people who suggested that Wu Hou refuse Xu Du's title and do their best to safeguard the Sun-Liu alliance. But I hope that when Wu Hou plays his status as a relative in the future, they can rely on this general of the relative in the foreign country to achieve success.

With Jian Yong's verbal skills, people will be excited about this bright future wherever they go. So they will argue with those who support Xu Du's envoy, and they will attack each other in the Jianye court, all for the selfish interests of the clan, and have nothing to do with the future of the Sun regime.

The ambition of Wu Hou was not only Wu Duke, but also just foreign relatives and important officials. But Wu Hou also had to use them to coax them, and sometimes it even reached the point of compromise.

At this time, it doesn't matter how to make a choice in the end. So many people hesitate between the two envoys, like dogs excited for bait, but Wu Hou had to rely on them... Once this situation occurred, Wu Hou was already at a disadvantage, so the choices he could make were very limited and the benefits he could get were very limited.

Lu Su smiled and continued to answer with Jian Yong, as if he met his close friend. And his palm tightly held the hilt of the sword around his waist, and almost blue veins burst out from the back of his hand. Deep in his heart, a voice kept shouting at himself: Is the ambition of Wu Hou a separatist? How could the power of the tripod be obtained by others?

A real man like Wu Hou should take Jiangdong as the basis to achieve the cause of the emperor. Even if he is patient and wait for a while, he must work hard to compete with the heroes in the world!

Jian Yong was still talking and laughing in his ears, and his witty words were like beads, as if he was really just a person who went to Jiangdong to announce the good news.

This is not the first time Jian Yong has reported good news.

The last time was two years ago. When Zhou Lang led the navy in Baqiu and fought with Xuande Gong's troops for Jingzhou, Jian Xianhe came to report the good news from the police. Then he said that because of the strong wind and high waves, thousands of people and boats floated to the city of Gong'an, and were taken in by the Jingzhou army. As a result, Zhou Lang was furious at the good news and died of illness soon after.

This person is just a close minister under Duke Xuande who is playing tricks. With Duke Xuande's power, his mouth and tongue are as scary as a sharp blade!

Thinking of this, Lu Su suddenly felt a little lucky. Fortunately, heroes like Cao Gong and Xuande Gong are already old. No matter how powerful they have or how clever their means, how long can they last? Ten years or twenty years?

After all, Wu Hou was only thirty years old and had a land of thousands of miles east of Jiangdong. In the next few decades, when Cao and Liu were gone, how long could the powerful regime they created last?

Lu Su couldn't help but think randomly, and was a little distracted for a moment.

Perhaps Jian Yong was tired of speaking, so he took a short rest. Lei Yuan's peaceful voice came from his ears. He was introducing to Lu Dai that Yufu County had been expanded and could accommodate the troops of both sides. You might as well rest in the county for a day. Tomorrow, there will be ships coming from the direction of Yidao, and everyone will cross the Meixi River and continue to go east.

Lu Su suddenly thought again that although Duke Xuande was already fifty years old, his body was obviously strong. Kong Ming and others, as well as generals like Lei Xuzhi, were still young. His thoughts were just absurd...

At this time, Liu Bei, who was hated by Lu Su, was watching the military horse training outside Nanzheng City.

The outer city of Nanzheng, which originally seemed abandoned, has now been repaired very well. Several collapsed city gates that could not be restored were simply demolished, and the road through the city gate became much wider.

The road extends all the way, and there is a high platform built by rammed earth at the end.

Liu Bei stood on the platform with his long sword and looked out. He saw the sky was high and the air was clear. There were towering mountains in the distance, and there were surging Han Rivers near. Among the mountains and rivers, a majestic city stood. On the open ground in front of the city, countless soldiers were lined up everywhere, and the army was in full swing. The soldiers raised flags like forests, and there were sometimes drums and moustaches and strings to stop the clouds. Some people dressed in civil servants were running back and forth, correcting something.

This is not a military and political exercise during wartime, but a preview of a specific ritual.

What kind of ritual is it and what purpose it is to achieve through this ritual, it still needs to wait for Xu Du and Yecheng's reaction to confirm. It does not need to be made public at the moment. But the soldiers have to practice in advance so as not to make any omissions and be laughed at by others.

Zhao Yun was still standing behind Liu Bei with calmness.

He just returned from Qiang yesterday and ran a thousand miles, which was very hard. Pang Tong, who was with him, directly asked for leave and said he would take a few days off to nourish his vitality. However, Zhao Yun was as usual, as if he had not gone out this time.

As for Ma Mengqi's reaction and promise, Pang Tong has already reported it specifically, and Zhao Yun needs no need to say much.

At this moment, the two of them stood on the high platform and were talking about another matter.

"Zilong, what you said is very reasonable. But the situation in front of you is like this, so you have to be a little lenient and put the overall situation first. As for the important officials around me, if you have any doubts..."

Liu Bei was silent for a while and continued, "Zilong, you have worked very hard for a while, so go back to Chengdu to rest. A Dou has been fond of swordsmanship recently. In his spare time, you might as well teach him a few skills, just try to sharpen his character."
