Lu Su and Zhuge Jin still guessed wrong this time. Of course, Lu Xun is not just interesting to Xiao Qiao, but the relationship between these two people is actually childhood sweethearts!

In fact, Master Qiao has not dared to confirm since Lu Xun entered the door, and the personable young man in white in front of him will be the little boy Lu Xun who has been playing with his little daughter all day since he was a child of three or four years old, but disappeared on the eve of the outbreak of the rebellion four years ago.

However, as soon as he heard Lu Xun's voice, Master Qiao was still sure in an instant. The handsome young man in front of him is Lu Xun, the son of Lu Jun, the former captain of Jiujiang and the nephew of Lu Kang, the Taishou of Lujiang! At the same time, he is also the person who thinks about his precious second daughter.

It's just that the Lu clan was wiped out by Zhang Xiujun together with the Zhu clan and the Zhang clan of Wu County when Zhang Xiu conquered Jiangdong, how could Lu Xun stand here intact?

Now that he has lost his temper, Lu Xun can't care about maintaining his previous gentle and elegant image. I saw Lu Boyan take a step forward, making a gesture with his hand, but his eyes looked directly at Master Qiao: "Lu Xun dares to ask Master Qiao, when did Miss Xiao Qiao have a marriage contract with Zhou Gongjin?" ”

It's really Lu Xun!

Master Qiao, who was becoming more and more confused about the situation, couldn't make it up now, so he could only bow his hand to Lu Su and Zhuge Jin: "Two adults, forgive Qiao's offense, dare to ask what is the matter today?" ”

Lu Su and Zhuge Jin were also asked. They were all going to rest at the post station, but they didn't expect that Zhang Xiu would send someone to ask him to accompany him to Qiao's house. When he came, Zhang Xiu only said that he asked for a parchment map, but the others were not to inform them.

glanced at Zhang Xiu, and after getting the confirmed information, Lu Su arched his hand towards Master Qiao, first pointed to Lu Xun and said: "This is Lu Xun and Lu Gongzi of Wujun" and then pointed to the direction of Zhang Xiu's feet: "This is Lu Xun's newly recognized father, and it is also our current Yangzhou Assassin History, and the imperial court has entered the Zhendong General!" ”

……

After getting back the sheepskin drawings from Qiao's house, Liu Ye explained them to Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu immediately decided to allocate a large number of materials and manpower to Liu Ye, and allowed him a lot of power to improve weapons and armor for Zhang Xiujun, and make a large number of sharp weapons.

Later, Zhang Xiu stayed in Anhui City for a few days, on the one hand, to make final preparations for the next southern crossing to the south of the Yangtze River, and on the other hand, he also gave Lu Xun and Xiao Qiao some time to meet, and personally made a marriage contract for him. Just wait for Lu Xun to solve the Shanyue crisis with Zhang Xiu, and when he comes back, he will marry Miss Qiao Er.

Although the danger of Shanyue is quite important, it is not difficult to solve for Zhang Xiu at this time. After all, today's Zhang Xiu has a large group of first- and second-rate ministers who can put forward constructive opinions and can replicate and implement, such as Jia Xu, Liu Ye, Gu Yonglu, Su Zhuge Jin, Yuan Lian, Yan Xiangbuqi, Yan Qi, Kan Ze, etc., as well as Zhang Liaotai, Shi Ci, Gao Shun, Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, Xu Sheng, Lu Meng, Lu Xun, and a large number of cadres who can deal with any sudden military chaos and war.

And in terms of the external environment, Yangzhou, which borders the East China Sea to the east, has a large coastline and rear that is completely unfortified. Cao Cao in the north is recovering his strength and preparing for a decisive battle in Hebei, Liu Biao, the dog who guards the land in the west, and Sun Quanbu, who is in panic all day, don't have to worry about it for the time being, and as for Jiaozhou in the south, there is no need to mention the savage area now.

It can be said that the current situation of internal and external stability is really an excellent opportunity for Zhang Xiu to dismantle the time bomb of Shanyue.

However, what Zhang Xiu needs to make now is whether Zhang Xiu chooses to ease the contradictions between Shanyue and concentrate on resuming production and rearmament for war in this extremely precious period of no war, or whether he chooses to solve the Shanyue issue once and for all and postpone the construction and restoration of Huainan and Jiangdong.

As the saying goes, good things can't be taken over. Zhang Xiu is currently facing this embarrassment of choosing one or the other.

If we choose to solve the Shanyue problem once and for all, then whether it is war or peace, it will take a considerable amount of energy for Zhang Xiu's army in the end, and finally it will take hundreds of thousands or millions of Shanyue to settle in the plain area. As a result, Zhang Xiu did not have much strength to complete the recuperation of Huainan and the new construction of Jiangdong, let alone a large-scale expansion of armaments, which would directly affect the initiative of Zhang Xiu's clique in the main battlefield of the Central Plains for a considerable period of time to come.

However, if Shanyue chooses to take moderate measures, although Zhang Xiu will receive great benefits in the short term, so that the military strength of the Zhang Xiu group has the capital to conquer the world in the Central Plains, but if the war for foreign hegemony cannot achieve the expected results as scheduled, such as falling into a long-term confrontation and tug-of-war or even defeat, then Shanyue will very likely become the last straw that crushes the Zhang Xiu group or directly leads to the collapse of the Zhang Xiu group.

Nowadays, for these two choices, Zhang Xiu Group is also divided into two factions with clear and opposing views. The left-wing radicals led by the great powerful ministers Yuan Lian, Yuan Yaoqing, and the great strategist Chen Gong repeatedly expressed that they would not wait for the Central Plains, and asked Zhang Xiu to actively lead the army to expand the territorial power, and when Yuan Cao fought a decisive battle, he attacked Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other places in the Central Plains, and "rescued" the emperor in Xudu, so as to form the overall situation of the confrontation between the north and the south.

On the contrary, right-wing conservatives such as the great lord Bo Yanxiang and Liu Ye insisted on the ancient adage that if you want to go outside, you must first settle inside, hoping that Zhang Xiu would try to dominate the king after integrating Yangzhou into an iron plate.

In this decision-making contest, there is no doubt that most of the generals are still on the side of Yuan Jian Chen Palace. After all, for military generals, their value can only be reflected in war, and only by leading troops to fight can they obtain the merit of promotion.

But the final decision-making power is still in Zhang Xiu's hands. For this decision, which can completely determine his own fate and the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people, Zhang Xiu had to be as "decisive" as before the Battle of Qiyang, but made an extremely careful consideration.

In the end, Zhang Xiu did not make her decision clear. But now that Zhang Xiu has left Shouchun and come to this Lujiang River to prepare to cross the Jiangdong River to the south, he has clearly expressed his attitude and position.

Of course, Zhang Xiu didn't have to worry too much about the opinions of Yuan Zhuo, Chen Gong and those generals who sought war. Because of the existence of Dr. Jia Xu, this undoubtedly blessed Zhang Xiu with an aura of power.

Although Jia Xu does not seem to have any substantive official position on the outside now, he only has the honorary official title of Doctor Guanglu, and he is not like Yuan Lian, who is not only a county guard, but also several clan brothers such as Yuan Ba and Yuan Min who serve as senior officials in the Zhang Xiu Group, full of power. However, in the system of Wenchen and strategists, no one dared to disagree with the opinions put forward by Dr. Jia Xu.

Even though the Poison Man likes to keep his mouth shut, no one would think that the "occasional" speech of the Poison Man would be the norm. More than once
