Jiang Wan said that she was under a lot of pressure about this, but Liu Yan also had Liu Yan's reasons, but her reasons always sounded like bullying honest people. Her reason is that her current identity is a royal princess, so she naturally wants to pose as a royal princess. Unless she is a figure of the level of Sima Hui, Huang Chengyan, and Pang Degong asking to see her, she naturally has to stand up in front of ordinary small characters.

Also, Jiang Wan is now equivalent to the prime minister of Jingzhou. Many things should be given to him to do, the more powerful he is, the more Liu Yan knows people and is good at his duties, and other talents who are ready to move will take him as an example and come to defect.

In the selection of talents, Liu Yan has always been suspicious of employing people, and suspects are not used. The person she believes in is naturally good at everything, and she is willing to give him power and fully trust him. First, because she is a girl, many things can't be done on the stage, and she wishes that there were a lot of people to help her run all the military and political affairs, so she is responsible for playing prestige when she has nothing to do, holding a conference when she has something, and the rest of the time can be spent playing in the mountains and sleeping in the mountains.

However, everyone knows that this is not possible. It's nothing to become a princess, but becoming a Jingzhou pastor is equivalent to truly becoming the lord of Jingzhou, no longer limited to Changsha, she is now going to work for the benefit of the entire Jingzhou people, and the pressure is huge!

As soon as the news of Liu Yanfeng's princess and Jingzhou Mu came out, the most shocked was of course the Jiangdong Sun family. After Sun Quan's great victory in the Battle of Chibi and the complete defeat of the Northern Expedition, the whole person became suspicious again.

The Battle of Chibi was obviously fought vigorously, and Cao Cao threw away his armor and fled, and Jingzhou was about to be included in the bag. turned out to be such a dismal ending, the old general Cheng Pu died, and his head was in a different place. The soldiers of Jiangdong fought in Jiangling, and there were countless casualties. How many people buried their bones in other places, but in the end, Jiangdong didn't catch anything, and even lost the Jiangxia that Liu Bei sent to him, which was really aggrieved!

Now, Jiangdong's strength has been greatly damaged, but the Changsha Kou clan has soared into the sky. The goddess prodigy of the Kou clan was actually given the surname of the country and named the princess. Jingzhou pastoral. Jingzhou became the possession of a stinky female doll. How can you be willing to call Sun Quan?

But what can you do if you are unwilling? Zhou Yu is injured, and she has been sick and crooked. Although the other generals under his command were not damaged, the experience of fleeing back from the Northern Expedition was originally a psychological injury, wasn't it?

In addition, Sun Quan has always had a pimple in his heart. That is, Sun Shao is still in Changsha now. Let him be like a bone in his throat. Many times when making certain decisions, this factor will always be influenced. For example, his attitude towards Zhou Yu. Attitude towards Lu Xun.

Now, General Zhendong's big seal is on the table, and Sun Quan can't be happy at all when he sees it. Because this was canonized by Cao Caoze. This guy is still vigorous on the front foot, leading the so-called million heroes to attack Jiangdong. Now he has been crowned the general of Zhendong again, and it is really a weasel to give a New Year's greeting to the chicken. Not well-intentioned.

Sun Quan was originally a general, but now he has just changed his title, and his territory has not expanded, so what is the point of just changing his title? You must know that the holy decree in Cao Cao's hand is about the same price as the newspaper on the wall in the people's homes, and he can write it casually, tear it up casually, and regret it casually.

The only change is probably that he has changed from a former enemy to a temporary ally. Sun Quan looked at the big seal on the shore and thought with a wry smile. The old mother of the inner house has been annoying him about Sun Shao recently, which makes him upset and hates Da Qiao even more, and he really can't wait to break her body into pieces.

It's a pity that since Sun Shao went to Changsha, Da Qiao has suddenly become well-behaved, and he has been in front of the old woman all day long, serving the old lady like a little slave, and the old lady also understands her mind and intends to protect her, so that Sun Quan has a fire in his heart but has nothing to do.

According to the current situation, it is a sure thing that Liu Yan will be a princess as Jingzhou and have made great progress. It is almost impossible for Jiangdong to want to fight Jingzhou again, and it seems impossible to create trouble for Liu Yan. Judging from Liu Yan's methods of governing Changsha, Jingzhou under her governance will definitely be impregnable, and there will be no opposition at all. Instead of having that unrealistic dream, Jiangdong should think about how to make his plate solid, restore his strength, and prevent Jingzhou from coming to Jiangdong for trouble.

Thinking like this, Sun Quan suddenly became a little discouraged. Since Sun Shao appeared, his mentality has undergone subtle changes that he has not even noticed. His original mentality of seeking stability became much more radical, and he began to be eager to expand his territory, and began to be eager to prove his ability to prove that he was indeed the most suitable candidate for the lord of Jiangdong.

Although Sun Shao is young, and he has been running Jiangdong for many years, the two are not comparable at all. But the human mind is the most complicated, especially for a superior like him. That's why he supported the Northern Expedition so actively, helping to run before and after, recruiting soldiers and raising money, and helping Zhou Yu to get the source of troops and military funds. I really hope that Zhou Yu can prove to him with facts that he is Jiangdong's minister and can clear the obstacles on Jiangdong's way forward.

However, Zhou Yu disappointed him again. Now he is recuperating from his injuries in Chaisang, and the doctor sent by Sun Quan reported that he seems to have used a very serious internal injury in addition to the arrow in the shoulder, although the wound on the shoulder is healing well, but the internal injury is very serious, and the whole person is very weak at the moment, and it is estimated that the possibility of healing is there, but it needs to be carefully recuperated.

Sun Quan was deflated when he heard this, Zhou Yu seemed that he could not be the governor of the capital, where was the governor of the capital who was a fragile glass man? But looking at the current Jiangdong, as soon as Zhou Yu fell, who could stand up to the top? It seems that the junior generals below are still young and cannot take over Zhou Yu's class, but the hostility between Jiangdong and Jingzhou has become clear, and there is no possibility of peace talks. If you don't recover your strength in time, maybe Jingzhou will come and destroy Jiangdong.

Sun Quan's mood was extremely gloomy, but Liu Yan's mood was as good as ever. Since becoming a princess, I feel that everything is much smoother than before. Liu Biao's general's mansion was changed to the princess's mansion, and all the princess's retainers were served by her personal guards, the Kou clan of Yishui. Liu Yan selected a group of young girls from the Kou family and handed them over to Yaoqin to manage and teach, and in the future, she will be responsible for Liu Yan's daily life as the maid of the princess's mansion.

As for the outer guard of the princess's mansion, the wounded and discharged soldiers were in charge, although they had retired from the battlefield. But all of them used to be brave and good at fighting, and the deterrent power is not covered. Compared with other security guards, Liu Yan still believes that she has more soldiers.

Sister Kou Rong moved into the princess's house as Miss Kou's to reunite with her sister, and her sister became a princess, and it didn't change much for Kou Rong from before, the little girl was very happy to come to the lively and fun Xiangyang, and lived with her sister, and her sister would still spoil her and protect her. Moreover, now my sister has a lot of time to play with her, unlike before. Leave her at her uncle's house in the countryside and ignore her.

With my sister by my side. The uneasiness in Liu Yan's heart was instantly remedied. Not long after, Huang Chengyan sent his daughter to the princess's mansion as agreed, and Liu Yan also took advantage of the situation to seal her to be engaged in engineering construction and inventions. And that's not all. She was also given a special studio to set up. Gather the top craftsmen in Jingzhou to form a research and development team to help her realize her wonderful ideas. Let Huang Yueying be like a fish in water. Gradually, the mood improved, the person became cheerful, and the veil that was originally covered by the head and face was changed to a decorative tulle that only covered the mouth and nose. Fair skin and yellowish hair with large wavy hair are exposed.

In addition to Huang Yueying, Liu Yan also ushered in a group of unexpected helpers. It turned out that the civil officials under Liu Bei didn't plan to use those people and deliberately let them go to Changsha to guard the tombs of Liu Bei and Guan Yu, but they didn't expect that not long after the news of her princess reached Changsha, they collectively ran to Xiangyang.

Led by Yin Guan, the original Liu Bei's main book, Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Xiahoulan and a group of people all came. There are only two people who have been personally received by Liu Yan, one is Yin Guan recommended by Xu Shu, and the other is Xiahoulan recommended by Zhao Yun. At first sight, I felt that although Yin Guan's talent was not as good as Jiang Wan's, he still had some strategies and was suitable for Liu Yan's private placement. However, Xia Houlan gave Liu Yan a deep impression during the first interview.

The first is because his surname is Xiahou, and at a glance, he knows that he is a general from Cao Cao's side. Second, according to Zhao Yun's recommendation, this person is proficient in the law and is good at investigating some criminal cases. And in Liu Yan's Jingzhou Mu Mansion, there is just a lack of a person in charge of the prison.

Liu Yan exchanged views with him repeatedly, and became more and more aware that this person was a treasure, so she appointed him as an official in charge of criminal and prison proceedings. As for the rest of Jian Yong, Sun Qianzhi and others, who had not even seen him, directly asked them to report to Jingwu General Zhang Fei and joined Zhang Fei's command, anyway, Zhang Fei, as a general, also needs a set of leadership teams, and it should not be a big problem for him to control Liu Bei's old generals.

In addition to these people, the role of the recruitment list is much smaller, there are people who come to defect, but they are all cats and dogs, and none of them are recommended to Liu Yan, which makes Liu Yan heartbroken. I think that there were as many literati in Jingzhou back then, but as soon as Cao Cao came, he didn't do anything good, and the cultural context of Jingzhou was also destroyed, and the talent reserve in Jingzhou is extremely withered, which is a pity!

For this reason, Liu Yan also specifically asked Xu Shu to vent her bitterness, but Xu Shu persuaded her to be patient, she couldn't eat a fat man in one breath, and she had to take her time to recruit talents, none of those hermit masters were not masters of wait-and-see, maybe they were watching you in a corner of Jingzhou at this time! You relax and do what you want to do, and gradually those people will feel that you have a future and come out to join you.

Now, you have been a pastor in Jingzhou for less than a year, so why are you in a hurry! Your current development has been very fast, but what you need to do now is to slow down the pace of development, and do things in a down-to-earth manner, develop Tuntian where you should develop Tuntian, prosper the economy where you should prosper the economy, and do not slack off in the places where you should be vigorous. In short, there's a lot more you need to do, don't just focus on one thing.

Kou Yan listened to Xu Shu's words, and thought that as long as he did his own thing well and made the brand loud, would he still be worried about not being able to find a sponsor? Besides, Jiangdong had been surprisingly well-behaved recently, and there was no sign of retaliation at all, so it was just right for Gan Ning to practice several times from time to time, increase the prestige of Jingzhou's navy, and make Sun Quan even more afraid to talk nonsense.

Gan Ning's current life is nourishing, and he basically belongs to the state of being above 10,000 people under one person. The whole of Jiangxia was his territory, raising his army. Now thinking about his thoughts about wanting to defect to Jiangdong Zhou Yu back then, he can only say that he was young and ignorant, and he almost got on the thief ship, but fortunately he was persuaded by Her Royal Highness the princess to stay in Jingzhou, otherwise it would really be dark and a waste of time.

Didn't you see that Pang Tong, the strategist beside Zhou Yu, had already entered the princess's account, and he still wanted to go to Jiangdong? Unless he went crazy! Now, his days will be as nourishing as he wants, and he will have money and status. He is now like Huang Zu back then, who possessed Jiangxia and resisted Jiangdong with one person.

But he knew that he was not fighting alone. Jianchang is his own territory, and it is also the best stronghold for attacking Jiangdong by land, plus there are so many brave and good land combat masters behind him, he only needs to pose on the river every day, and he can make Sun Quan dare not even let go of a fart.

In terms of the deep hatred between Jingzhou and Jiangdong, sooner or later there will be a war between the two families, and he will definitely have more opportunities to make contributions. Gan Ning was in high spirits, and worked harder to train the soldiers, sharpening his knife and waiting to take Sun Quan to open the knife.

Kou Yan didn't have time to think about encroaching on the land of Jiangdong at all, what she was thinking about now was to take advantage of this short period of peace to let Ma Liang and Deng Ai communicate with the southern Shishi, and it was best to cross Jiaozhou and go to sea to find overseas Yizhou.

However, Jiaozhou is very far away from Xiangyang, and Ma Liang has not heard from him for a long time with Deng Ai, which makes Liu Yan inevitably worried. Fortunately, Ma Liang is okay, his eldest brother and younger brother are very supportive of his career. But Deng Ai is still young, Aunt Deng has not seen her relatives and children for a long time, and she is always depressed, although there are Aunt Xu and a group of maids and Kou Rong to accompany her to relieve her boredom, but Liu Yan is still shocked by her haggard appearance of missing her son, there is no way, her own father does not love her mother, she is very envious of other people's mothers and filial piety. Now that she has gotten out of someone's filial son and won't let it back for a long time, she feels very sorry for Aunt Deng.

But Ma Liang and Deng Ai have not heard any news from the south, and asked the Taishou of Guiyang and Lingling counties, they said that they had sent many people to inquire, but Jiaozhou was remote and mixed, and it was really difficult to find one or two people for a while, so please ask Liu Yan to give him a few more days, and there will be definite news soon.

So, Liu Yan waited, waited, waited, waited, waited until February of the fifteenth year of Jian'an, the year was over for a long time, and there was no news from Ma Liang and Deng Ai. This time, Liu Yan couldn't wait, personally wrote a letter of inquiry, and sent someone to send it to Shi's office, but she didn't expect to get a response quickly this time, and Shi's didn't see the so-called Jingzhou envoy at all! )
