Yan Lianghui recited "Ode to the Goddess of Luo". The peerless appearance and magnanimity of the Goddess of Luo described in the poem are so fascinating. It is said that the Luo Shen described by Cao Zhi is based on his sister-in-law Zhen Mi. Zhen Mi in history was originally the wife of Yuan Xi. After Cao Cao captured Yecheng, in order to win over the Hebei family, he forcibly betrothed Zhen Mi to his son Cao Pi. As a result, after Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor, he neglected Zhen Mi, causing this beauty to pass away sadly. It is a pity that such a stunning beauty ended up like this. Now that Yan Liang has the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, how can he not save Zhen Mi from danger? As a modern person who traveled through time, Yan Liang's images of Zhen Mi all came from the memories of this body. Naturally, he wanted to see with his own eyes whether the legendary Luo God was as described in Cao Zhi's poem.
It’s so shocking to heaven. The condition Yan Liang proposed to Yuan Shang is naturally beneficial to both public and private interests. "Yuan Shang agreed to this condition of my lord. Although it can alleviate the pressure for a while, sooner or later he will be in trouble again, and the world will not be ashamed of his behavior of offering his wife. If he does not agree, he will have to face Yuan Tanhe alone.
Liu Bei attacked from both sides, but the predicament remains. It seems that whether he agrees or not, he will always be a different person inside and out." Xu Shu didn't know Yan Liang's selfish intentions, so he just stroked his beard and smiled. Yan Liang calmed down and sneered: "Let's let the Yuan family fight for a while, and then we can take advantage of it when they both lose." Xu Shu also nodded and said: "What my lord said is true. In my opinion, we can't be idle during this gap. We should wipe out Liu Qi as soon as possible and pacify the four counties in Jingnan." Yan Liang was convinced, and immediately discussed with Xu Shu about using troops southward. ###### Jiangdong, Moling. Sun Quan's administrative seat was originally located in Wu County, Wu County. In recent years, with the capture of Hefei, the territory to the north suddenly expanded a lot. In order to facilitate his rule, Sun Quan moved the administrative seat from Wu County to Moling. The lanterns are hung high, and the military mansion is brightly lit. In the study room, young Sun Quan was stroking his purple beard with his hand, his brows furrowed as he looked at the pieces of information in his hand. Dramatic changes in the Northern Kingdom, internal fighting within the Yuan family, Liu Bei's northern attack on Qingzhou... Among all the changes, the one that caused Sun Quan the most headache was naturally the news that Yan Liang had captured Jiangling and Liu Qin had fled south to Changsha. Three generations of the Sun family have dreamed of it. No matter how many attacks and how many lives of soldiers were sacrificed, Jingzhou could not be captured. But now it is about to fall into the hands of that common man from the north. It felt like a bone that was already in your mouth, but was suddenly and inexplicably snatched away. Sun Quan was very unhappy, very unhappy. "Yan Liang, you have robbed my Sun family of what they deserve. How can I, Sun Quan, swallow this tone of voice——" Sun Quan clutched the silk book in his hand tightly, his joints creaking. The sound of footsteps interrupted Sun Quan's thoughts. The soldiers outside the hall came to report that it was Zhuge Jin, the commander-in-chief, who was outside asking for an audience. "Tzuyu, why is he here so late?" Sun Quan was startled for a moment, then waved his hand and said: "Please come in and meet Zhuge Sima." Not long after, the door of the study room opened, and a man with a horse-faced face walked in, bowed his hands and came forward to greet him. Sun Quan smiled and said: "Ziyu, you come to the military mansion so late, I think you will have some advice." "I don't dare to teach you anything, but Jin came here because he wanted to share the Lord's worries." Zhuge Jin smiled humbly, with a very gentle look on his face. Sun Quan's heart was slightly shaken, but he said calmly: "How does Ziyu know what worries I have in my heart?" "Yan Liang captured Jiangling, and except for the four remote counties of Jingnan, he has occupied most of Jingzhou. I think my lord has been worried about this matter recently." Zhuge Jin didn't mince words, he spoke frankly and made Sun Quan's thoughts clear. There was something strange in Sun Quan's blue eyes, as if Zhuge Jin had seen through his thoughts. "Yan Liang has captured Jiangling, and sooner or later there will be disaster in Jiangdong. Now that Shanyue's rebellion has been suppressed, I am considering launching another army to conquer Jiangxia in the west. Since Tzuyu knows what I am thinking, I don't know what he has to say about the western expedition." Sun Quan did not hide anything and stated his intentions. Zhuge Jin said: "Taking Jingzhou from the west and occupying the entire Yangtze River is our Jiangdong national policy. My lord should use his troops against Yan Liang. But Jin thought that before my lord goes west, he might as well do one thing first." "What's the matter?" Sun Quan suddenly became very interested. Zhuge Jin slowly said: "Jin thinks that my lord should declare Liu Qi to the court as the shepherd of Jingzhou, and at the same time write a letter to Yan Liang, asking him to stop using troops against Jingnan, and use the Yangtze River as the boundary to divide Jingzhou into two parts, and no more military wars between the two."
." "You want me to declare Liu Qi as the shepherd of Jingzhou?" Sun Quan was startled and seemed a little surprised by Zhuge Jin's proposal. The Sun family and the Liu family in Jingzhou were feuding, and Sun Quan wanted to behead Liu Biao and his son in order to honor his father Sun Jian's spirit in heaven. But now Zhuge Jin wanted to persuade him to confess to Liu Qi as the shepherd of Jingzhou, and to help Liu Qi stop Yan Liang's murder.
Attack. Obviously, repaying evil with kindness is incompatible with Sun's family style. However, Zhuge Jin said calmly: "If my lord can keep Liu Qi, he can use it to check and balance Yan Liang, so that he will always face the threat of Jingnan. During this time, my lord will lead his army to attack Jiangxia westward, and Liu Qi will contain some of Yan Liang's forces in Jingnan."
Soldiers and horses, the lord can profit from it." After hearing Zhuge Jin's comments, Sun Quan's surprised mood quickly calmed down. After a change of thinking, he gradually realized that Zhuge Jin's words were reasonable. After thinking for a while, he added: "Yan Liang's morale is very high now. I asked him to stop attacking Liu Qi, but I'm afraid he may not be willing to listen." At this time, Zhuge Jin laughed again and said: "If Yan Liang refuses to listen, my lord can even march westward under the pretext of rescuing Liu Qi. If Yan Liang takes Jingzhou by force, there must be many heroes among them who are dissatisfied.
People will rise up and respond to the lord, so the lord can still benefit from it. And what the lord has to pay is just a simple report and a piece of paper to repair the book." Zhuge Jin didn't leave out the word "profit" in every word. After several words, Sun Quan's heart was pounding and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought. "Using Liu Qi's name to win the hearts of Jingzhou, and after losing his appearance, he tried to find a way to deal with Liu Qi. This plan of Tzuyu is really a clever one. It's just that Tzuyu is a simple and honest elder, how could he suddenly come up with such a trick now?
The plan..." The more Sun Quan thought about it, the more excited he became, but he ignored his doubts and said: "Very good, Ziyu's plan is brilliant, let's do it like this." "The Lord is wise." Zhuge Jin raised his hands in admiration, his face full of humility, as if Sun Quan had come up with this plan alone and had nothing to do with him. … After coming out of Wuhou Mansion, it was already dark at night. Zhuge Jin secretly exhaled and drove back to his home. The candlelight in the hall is still bright, and under the candlelight, the young man gently shaking his feather fan is leisurely sipping fragrant tea, quietly waiting for something. "Brother is back. How is it? Has Wu Hou accepted it?" Zhuge Liang stood up and came forward to greet him. Zhuge Jin smiled faintly and said, "Your plan will be of great benefit to me in Jiangdong without any harm. Wu Hou is a wise master, so there is no reason not to adopt it." Zhuge Liang nodded, then cupped his hands and said: "In this case, it's time for me to say goodbye to my brother." Zhuge Jin frowned slightly, and there was a slight haze in his eyes. "Second brother, are you still planning to return to Jingzhou? That Liu Qi is a mediocre person. Even if he can survive for a moment, he will be destroyed sooner or later. Anyway, you have not served him as an official and have no burden of loyalty, so why bother to bury him with him?
." Zhuge Jin sighed earnestly. Zhuge Liang only listened to his brother's persuasion quietly, but he smiled and said: "Brother, I have misunderstood. I have done my best to Liu Qi. I am not going back to Jingzhou when I say goodbye." "If you're not going back to Jingzhou? Then where do you want to go?" Zhuge Jin looked suspicious. Zhuge Liang walked to the door, looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, shook his feather fan, and sighed softly: "After all, the moon in my hometown is rounder. It's time to go back to my hometown to take a look..." ###### Seven days later, Jiangling City. A small boat came up the river, and a letter reached Jiangling. The atmosphere in the military mansion was unusually solemn. Everyone present, whether they were murderous generals or gentle counselors, could feel the fierce murderous aura circulating around them. Looking up, Yan Liang's eyes were as razor-sharp as he stared coldly at the piece of letters spread out on the case. It was an autographed letter from the Lord of Jiangdong. In the letter, Sun Quan almost used an imperative tone to order Yan Liang to stop his conquest against Liu Qi. He, Sun Quan, would hold high the banner of righteousness to rescue Liu Qi and defeat Jingxiang with an overwhelming army. Just a few months ago, Sun Quan asked Yan Liang for peace in such a humble manner in order to put down the Shanyue Rebellion. Now, as the mountains become more level, the green eyes become so arrogant in the blink of an eye. "Sun Quan's ability to bend and stretch is comparable to that of Gou Jian, and he is truly profound in his ability..." Yan Liangzhong was sneering, and murderous intent was flowing on Yingwu's face. Today's Yan Liang is no longer the unknown little man he once was. He controls most of Jingzhou. Even big princes such as Yuan Shang and Cao Cao do not dare to offend him. Now, this green-eyed girl dares to be so arrogant. This is simply a public humiliation. At the bottom of the stairs, all the generals were indignant. Although the counselors remained calm, they also looked a little unhappy. In the center of the lobby, the Confucian scholar in blue shirt stood tall and proud with his hands behind his back, showing no trace of fear. That Confucian scholar was none other than Sun Quan’s envoy Kan Ze. Yan Liang knew that Sun Quan's arrogance was precisely due to his tens of thousands of elite navy troops and a group of generals who were proficient in water warfare. As for Yan Liang, although he has captured Jiangling, his navy only has more than 10,000 people, and his generals are no better than Gan Ning and Lu Meng. The navy has always been his weakness. If you want to dominate the land of Jingzhou, a strong naval force is the way to go. However, Sun Quan obviously didn't understand Yan Liang, and being threatened by others, even in adversity, was not Yan Liang's style. The generals on the left and right held their breath, waiting for Yan Liang to give the arrogant Kan Ze a showdown, just like he did to the other envoys who dared to be arrogant, or simply kill the kid with one knife. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the murderous aura in the lobby reached its peak. At this moment, Yan Liang's cold and razor-sharp face suddenly changed, and he burst into laughter.
