Chapter 925 [Step-King]

Speaking of this, Sun Jian let out a "wow", another mouthful of blood, he endured the huge pain in his body, and continued: "There is still ...... This attack on the State of Chu was planned by me and the military advisor Zhang Hong, and there were some confidential things that only he knew, after you go back, please ask Zhang Hong to make the secret of Wu State public, and remember not to be ......the enemy of the Yan State."

"Great King......" Ling Cao, Chen Wu and the others shouted together.

"Ling Cao, Ce Yujun, you are the oldest, Bo Fu is not here, and you are under full authority for the time being. In addition, let the three armies of the governor of Huang Gai slowly withdraw and give up attacking Jiangxia. ”

"The last general has written it down, the king, you don't have to say anything......"

"If I don't say it, I'll never be able to say it. Bethfu...... Bo Fu should not be dead, if he can return to Wu State, let him succeed to the throne, if he is indeed no longer alive, you will let Zhong Mou succeed to the throne, but whether it is Bo Fu or Zhong Mou to succeed him, you must follow my will, so that they must not be enemies of Yan State, at least ...... Absolutely not for at least 10 years...... As for the ten years from now, I can't predict ......"

"King, the last general has written it down, and the last general has remembered it in his heart......"

Sun Jian suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed it in the air, and asked, "Where is my knife...... Take the ancient ingot knife to ......"

Chen Wu hurriedly sent the ancient ingot knife and said with tears in his eyes: "The Great King's Treasure Knife is ...... here."

Sun Jian grabbed the ancient ingot knife, handed it to Ling Cao, and said slowly: "Bring this knife back, bring it to Jianye, and put it in the main hall of the Wu Palace, and ask all the military ministers to remember to form an alliance with the Yan State in the north." Deal with the state of Chu together and avenge me within ten years. Don't be an enemy of the Yan Kingdom, otherwise the Wu Kingdom will suffer from the enemy...... Bo Fu has a frivolous temperament, and someone needs to persuade him, Zhou Gongjin, the general of Pingnan, can take on this great responsibility, and when he returns to Jianye, he will transfer this knife to Zhou Gongjin. Seeing this knife is like seeing me, and if necessary, let him show it. Whoever does not obey the command will be beheaded......"

"No!"

After Sun Jian confessed his last words, he looked up at the sky and the blue sky. It was as if the face he was most familiar with had appeared. The person who lived and died with him and taught him to occupy Jiangdong seemed to be smiling at him.

A smile appeared on his face, and he thought slowly, "Brother Zinan, God won't bless me...... In the past, I will let my heirs continue our agreement, and I hope that you can keep your vows in this life. Never betray the alliance. The Sun family and the Lin family have repaired the ...... for generations."

Suddenly, a cloud of white clouds floated in the sky. The white cloud turned into a person, and the figure was so familiar that it stabbed Lin Nan's smiling face, and Lin Nan's smiling face also disappeared at this time.

When Sun Jian saw this scene, the smile on his face suddenly stiffened, and he secretly thought in his heart: "Is it all the will of heaven?" Could it be that Wu Guo is bound to clash with Yan Guo? Bo Fu, Bo Fu, I hope you can follow your father's will, and don't be an enemy of Yan Guo, otherwise, Wu Guo will be wiped out......"

A gust of wind blew, blowing away the white clouds in the sky, and the floating clouds that turned into Sun Ce gradually disappeared, replaced by Lin Nan's smiling face hanging in the air, Sun Jian couldn't see the future, and his prediction could only last for ten years, as for ten years later, he didn't want to know anymore.

Gently, Sun Jian closed his eyes and left this earthly world with a faint smile......

Ling Cao, Chen Wu and the others couldn't help but be sad when they saw Sun Jian stop breathing, and at the same time they wailed, and the young men beat their chests and feet, crying heartbroken.

After a while, Ling Cao wiped away a handful of tears, held an ancient ingot knife, stood up from the ground, and shouted, "Cry!" What to cry about! Cheer me up, no one is allowed to cry until the king's body is returned to Jianye! The pursuers will come at any time, and they will stay here for a long time, so they will all give me a horse and return to Wu. ”

When the young Erlang of the Ce Yu Army heard Ling Cao's words, they all wiped away their tears, turned their grief into strength, and all turned on their horses, took Sun Jian's body, and galloped towards the road of Wu State.

……

In Chen Liucheng, the people have been pacified, and the prisoners of war have also enjoyed their due treatment.

Lin Nan was still injured, but after Hua Tuo's treatment, he was able to move, and with good food and drink, in just two days, he recovered his old spirit and began to deal with some military and political affairs.

Within two days, it can be said that the Yan army was overjoyed, first of all, there was good news from the Tiger Prison Pass, Ma Chao and Cao Cao were subjected to Xun Chen and Chen Zhi leading troops to attack the Tiger Prison Pass, and they resisted for a day, and then took the initiative to give up the Tiger Prison Pass. The Qin army retreated on all fronts, and after learning that Hangu Pass and Hongnong County were occupied by Xu Huang, they diverted to the south and returned to the pass through Wuguan. Chen Zhi led his army to chase all the way, and fought several battles with the Qin army, with casualties on both sides, and finally Chen Zhi successfully occupied Wuguan after Ma Chao and Cao Cao retreated from Wuguan.

The second is that there is good news from Wancheng, hiring 3,000 light cavalry from Yangzhai to attack Wancheng for a long time, the Chu army was caught off guard, and the city has no generals, and the troops stationed in the city were originally surrendered from Yuan Shu, so Wancheng Ling only resisted for half an hour, and after losing the offensive of the enemy, he took the initiative to open the city and surrender. He then occupied Wancheng and surrendered several other cities near Wancheng.

Again, the Chu army suffered a joint counterattack by Jia Xu, Zhang Liao, Wei Yan, Chu Yan and others in Yingchuan, and the news of Wu's all-out attack on Chu came out, the Chu army retreated without a fight, and wanted to retreat to Wancheng, but how did they know that it had been hired to occupy, and as a last resort, the Chu army had to continue to retreat south, retreated to the line of Jianyang, and formed a confrontation with Wancheng.

Finally, there is good news from Runan, when Liu Bei, the king of Chu, heard that the Wu army attacked Jiangxia, he led the army to retreat from Yingchuan, and wanted to enter Jiangxia through Runan, but he knew that he was ambushed by the Yan army led by Huang Zhong halfway, although the loss was not large, but it made the Chu army change its itinerary and had to return to Nanyang. Liu Bei heard that Wancheng and several surrounding counties were occupied by the Yan army, so he pulled his troops to Jianyang, set up heavy defenses in the area of Jianyang, and formed a confrontation with the Yan army, and because Guan Yu was injured, Zhang Fei lost his fighting spirit and was forced to withdraw. Leaving Du to attack and defend Jianyang, the three brothers all retreated to Xiangyang.

At this point, the Yan army finally completed the strategic goal of occupying the original.

The good news kept coming. Let the injured Lin Nan also speed up his recovery. Early this morning, he got up, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Bian Xi running over in a panic, and the two of them almost collided.

"What's the matter, so flustered?" In Lin Nan's opinion, Bian Xi has grown into a very stable scout commander. Generally, they don't show such a panicked expression, and if there is, it can only explain one problem. That's something very serious.

"My lord, Wu Wang Sun Jian failed to sneak attack Jiangxia, but was stabbed by Tian Yu and seriously injured, and finally escaped on the way. He died of his injuries. Bian Xi didn't have time to pay homage. hurriedly told Lin Nan the news he had just gotten.

"Boom!"

Lin Nan only felt that his heart was hit by a heavy hammer, his body weakened, and he fell directly to the side, hitting the door with a loud sound, and his brain exploded with a buzz.

Fortunately, Bian Xi was by his side and helped Lin Nan. so as not to let Lin Nan fall to the ground.

"Message...... Is the message reliable? Lin Nan asked in disbelief.

"Absolutely reliable, it was the subordinate An Thorn who made a detailed report in the Chu army and Wu Jundang. The two confirmed this at the same time, and Sun Jian was indeed dead. ”

"Providence...... Could it be that this qiΔ“ is all providence? Jiangdong Tigers died in Jingzhou, why can't they always jump out of this strange circle? Brother Taiwan, where will you leave me now? Is the oath of the past going to come to an end here? Lin Nan looked up at the sky, his heart was overwhelmed with sadness, and he said to himself, "Jiangdong has changed hands, and the era of the little overlord is coming......"

Ten days later.

There was a haze in the sky above Jianye City, and it had been rainy for the past few days, just like the mood of all Wu Guowu's ministers and people, it was so desolate.

In a cemetery thirty miles southeast of Jianye City, Sun Ce, who had just returned to Wu State, was galloping in the rain non-stop, his face was sad, the rain wet his whole body, tears mixed with the rain, and his mood was terrible.

"Drive!"

Sun Ce raised his horsewhip and struck him the horse under his seat, and the horse carried Sun Ce with a pain, and on both sides of the road stood soldiers in clothed and sackclothed clothes, and they were both excited and sad when they saw Sun Ce returning.

Just half a month ago, Sun Jian, the king of Wu, was angry about Sun Ce's death and launched a nationwide army to attack Chu, who knew that Sun Ce was not dead, and came back from the sea unharmed, but in exchange for the death of Sun Jian, the king of Wu.

Sun Jianxu, the king of Wu, Ling Cao returned to Jianye with Sun Jian's will and corpse, and the ministers were stunned at that time, and the whole country was in mourning. So, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong and others imprisoned the country according to their will, waiting for Sun Ce's return. However, they could wait, but Sun Jian's body couldn't wait, so they had to announce a national funeral and bury Sun Jian in a pleasant area thirty miles outside Jianye City.

"Father...... Father ......" Sun Ce shouted hysterically as he rode his horse and galloped.

Finally, he saw Sun Jian's mausoleum, due to the hasty burial, the mausoleum was not built very magnificently, but this was also done according to the meaning of Concubine Wu, because Sun Jian personally advocated frugality. On the second day after Sun Jian's body was transported back to Jianye City, Concubine Wu was so sad that she was bedridden, and she visited famous doctors, but the doctors were helpless, and she died on the third day.

Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong immediately buried the two here together in accordance with Concubine Wu's wishes.

The rain is endless.

In front of the mausoleum, a noble lady in mourning clothes knelt down with several young boys and girls, and the Qingluo curtain held up a piece of the sky above their heads, so that they would not be invaded by the rain. However, it has never been able to stop the rain of sadness in their hearts.

Beside the noble lady knelt an eight-year-old boy, although the boy was not tall, but he was wearing an iron armor and an iron helmet on his head, which looked extremely powerful.

At this time, he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Sun Ce's screams continued, his face was happy, he hurriedly stood up, shook the arm of the noble lady next to him and said, "Auntie, my brother is back, my brother is back......"

After speaking, he ran out, raised a pair of small hands, waved vigorously at Sun Ce, and shouted, "Brother! Brother! Brother! ”

Sun Ce got closer and closer, and when he saw the boy waving his arms to greet him, he reined in the horse, turned over from the horse, jumped down, picked the boy up, and walked straight under the Qingluo curtain without saying a word. His face was also gloomy.

"Bo Fu ...... You're finally back...... "The noble lady is the sister of Sun Ce's biological mother, Sun Ce's aunt, and the two sisters have married Sun Jian. Therefore, the people of Wu are called Wu Erfei.

Second Concubine Wu led several children, and she was still holding a baby girl in her arms, crying on her back, crying silently.

At this time, three boys of different sizes all hugged Sun Ce's legs and cried together, "Brother...... My father is gone...... Brother, my father can't play with us anymore......"

This is the case. Teach people how not to weep?

With tears in his eyes, Sun Ce put the eight-year-old boy in his arms on the ground, and knelt on the ground with a "plop". He kowtowed more than a dozen times to the mausoleums of Sun Jian and Concubine Wu until his forehead was bleeding.

"Brother, people can't be resurrected after death, please mourn my brother. The man who killed his father. It is Liu Bei, the king of Chu. When my brother returns, he should immediately lead a large army, pour all the troops of the whole country to destroy Chu, and avenge his father! "The eight-year-old boy was born with purple hair and blue eyes, heavy pupils, and a dazzling light in his eyes. In addition, he is open-mouthed, although he is not as graceful as Sun Ce, he is handsome and chic. The appearance is wonderful, but it is also different from ordinary people.

After hearing this, Sun Ce caught a glimpse of the boy. frowned and asked, "Zhongmou, aren't you going to go into battle with me to kill the enemy in this dress?" ”

"Exactly! If revenge is not avenged, it is difficult to exist between heaven and earth! "The boy is Sun Ce's younger brother, Sun Jian's second son Sun Quan, although he is seven years younger than Sun Ce, he still has Sun's blood in his bones.

And the three boys of different ages who surrounded Sun Ce and Sun Quan were also Sun Jian's sons, Sun Yi, Sun Kuang and Sun Lang. It's just that the three boys are too young and don't know much, and they are not as insightful as Sun Quan.

"Zhongmou...... It is worthy of my Sun's male ......" Sun Ce was moved and hugged Sun Quan tightly in his arms.

"Brother, let go, let go, you hugged me so tightly, I couldn't breathe......" Sun Quan said with difficulty, and tried to break free from Sun Ce's embrace.

At this time, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Zu Mao, and Lu Fan, who were standing on the other side, all walked over together, and at the same time bowed to Sun Ce and said, "Ministers, see the young master!" ”

Sun Ce wiped the tears from his face, looked at the ministers, and asked, "Fortunately, thanks to all the lords and generals, the state of Wu will not be in turmoil, I want to know, who killed my father?" ”

"Chu Jiang Tian Yu!"

"General Cheng and General Han, please reorganize your troops and horses, I will personally lead the army to attack, attack Jiangxia again, and pour the whole country's troops to destroy Chu!" Sun Ce said with an angry face.

"Brother, I'll go with you!" Sun Quan also stood up and shook the short sword hanging from his waist, also with a murderous face.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other. In the end, Zhang Hong persuaded: "Young master, the king has a will, once the young master returns to China, he will immediately succeed to the throne, and instruct the young master to handle government affairs carefully, and only after the Eastern Wu armament is neat and the soldiers and horses are strong, can he send troops to attack and destroy Chu ......"

"The country cannot be without a king for a day, it is imperative to ask the young lord to succeed to the throne and take charge of the country, as for the destruction of Chu, you must not be in a hurry. The matter of exterminating Chu is a matter of great importance, and it is absolutely not hasty, and it is necessary to achieve the unity of troop dispatch and grain and grass support. Young master, destroying Chu is the top priority of our army, but please put yourself in the shoes of the young master, with the current strength of our army, how can it be possible to defeat the Chu army? What's more, the Jingzhou Navy is famous all over the world, and our army doesn't even have a decent navy......" Lu Fan said with his fists folded and righteous.

Sun Ce glanced at Lu Fan and felt that what Lu Fan said was very reasonable, so he nodded and said, "Then choose an auspicious day, succeed to the throne, and rule the whole country." ”

Lu Fan smiled very calmly, he and Sun Ce were good friends, and he had a good relationship with Zhou Yu, so Sun Ce was generally able to listen to his words, and he was also arguing on the basis of reason, starting from the current situation of Wu State, which successfully persuaded Sun Ce.

Sun Ce paid homage to his father and mother, and then returned to Jianye with his ministers and royal families.

On the way, Sun Ce called Lu Fan to his side alone and asked, "Ziheng, if it weren't for you today, I would definitely have a hot head and rush out with my army, and it is estimated that no one can stop me." Thank you so much. ”

"Where did the young master say, the minister followed the young master, just for the sake of the young master, now the pros and cons of Wu are in front of the young master, even if the minister doesn't say it, the young master will figure it out."

LΓΌ Fan is a native of Xiyang, Runan, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he migrated to Shouchun with his father to avoid the chaos, and when Sun Ce led the Ceyu army to attack Shouchun, LΓΌ Fan took more than 100 diners to join Sun Ce, although he failed to join the Ceyu army. But it didn't stop his friendship with Sun Ce. And Lu Fan is very good at observing words and feelings, and he is also very good at speaking, so he has won Sun Ce's trust.

"Ziheng. In your opinion, what if our army wants to build a real naval army? Sun Ce thought for a while and asked slowly.

"In the opinion of the minister, you should follow the example of Yan Guo."

"Yan Guo?" Sun Ce had a headache when he heard this name, and as soon as he returned to the country, he knew what had happened before. also met Kan Ze and figured out the truth about Sun Jian's troops. Liu Bei would never set himself on fire, the one who passed the news of his death to Sun Jian. It must be Lin Nan. Therefore, there is also a fire buried in his heart. It's just that because the Yan army is strong, he hasn't vented it all the time, and he is ready to lie down and taste his courage. Slowly.

"Is the young master still haunted by what happened before? The military advisor Zhang Hong has explained the matter clearly. The first king sent troops, not because of the young master's death, but because he did see the empty opportunity of the Chu army......" Lu Fan didn't say anything more, for fear of arousing Sun Ce's disgust, he jumped over directly and continued, "The big ship of the Yan Kingdom must have been seen by the young master before, such a big ship. It is by no means comparable to the Jingzhou naval army. Although the ship was a sea ship, it was only suitable for swimming in the sea. However, since Yan can build such a large sea ship, it must be able to build other kinds of ships, which also shows that Yan Guo's shipbuilding technology is no worse than that of people in the south. ”

"What do you mean......"

"The former king once had his last words, to always maintain friendship with the Yan country, and some of the trade contracts signed with the Yan country before must be maintained in the original state. The shipbuilding technology of the South Ship and the North Horse, the shipbuilding technology of the Wu Kingdom is not bad, but what is lacking is the vision, the last time the big ship of the Yan Kingdom sailed into Qu'a, the fishermen along the river were shocked, they had never seen such a big boat. The minister thought that he should send craftsmen to Yan to learn shipbuilding technology. ”

"Southerners learn shipbuilding technology from northerners? Isn't that a great irony? ”

"Young master, don't you understand? Yan Wang Lin Nan is by no means an idle person, some of his ideas are completely different from ours, Tiefutu swept the plain, and now the Yan army's sea ships are so majestic, plus some governance policies, are worthy of our army's learning. ”

Sun Ce thought about it, and felt that it did make sense, he also brought back carrier pigeons and repeaters from Yan Kingdom, and it was because of this seemingly small thing that the Yan army increased their strength. He nodded and asked, "Then who do you think should be sent as an envoy to Yan Kingdom?" ”

"It has to be Zhou Gongjin!" Lu Fan replied.

"Gong Jin? Hahaha...... It really has to be him, he is the county horse of Yan Kingdom, and with him as his envoy to Yan Kingdom, everything will become relatively easy. ”

After Sun Ce and his entourage returned to Jianye City, under the leadership of Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, the ministers of Wu Guoqun, the succession ceremony that had been waiting for several days was held.

On the main hall of the Wu Palace, the ministers were still immersed in sadness, and their feelings were also very bleak, Sun Ce had already bathed and changed his clothes, and now he was wearing a royal robe, and his whole body was full of nobility.

Sun Ce walked up to the main hall accompanied by several palace people, and saw that the atmosphere in the hall was depressing, all the ministers were depressed, and there were still some ministers who had doubts about his succession.

"Ladies and gentlemen, from today onwards, I, Sun Ce, will take over the throne of my father and lead you to jointly build the hegemony of the Wu Kingdom. My father's will will will be inherited by me, and I hope that all the lords and generals will spare no effort to help me and create the hegemony of the Wu Kingdom. Sun Ce stood on the main hall of the palace, no longer had the sadness in the cemetery just now, he buried the sadness in the deepest part of his heart, turned his grief into strength, and prepared to use his own hands to create an unprecedented situation.

"The king is mighty! The king is mighty! Zhou Tai, Ling Cao, Chen Wu, Lu Su, Lu Fan and others all shouted out in unison.

However, their cries seemed a little insignificant in the empty hall, and the rest of the people looked at each other, and a trace of distrust appeared on the faces of Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao, and other old Sun Jian's old departments, and they were worried about whether Sun Ce, who was only fifteen years old, would be able to support the Wu Kingdom.

Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong stood there expressionlessly, without saying a word, their deep eyes Gu Bo was not shocked, and they couldn't see what they were thinking.

The rest of the ministers present all had ghosts in their hearts, and their faces showed distrust of Sun Ce, after all, Sun Ce was too young, and the burden of Wu Guo was too heavy.

The silence in the main hall was abnormal, and the eyes of the ministers moved to Sun Jian's younger brother, Sun Jing, the Taishou of Wujun from time to time, and the meaning was already visible.

Sun Jing felt pressured, and he stood side by side with the rest of the Sun clan at the foot of the steps of the palace hall. Seeing that all the ministers had their eyes on him, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

Sure enough, Zhang Zhao was the first to stand up at this time. He hugged his fist towards Sun Ce and said: "Young master, the throne of King Wu cannot be underestimated, the young master is bold and brave, but he lacks experience, although he has the last order of the previous king, when this eventful autumn, I am afraid that the young lord is not enough to deter the whole country." Wu Jun Taishou Sun Youtai has been following the former king to conquer the east and west. Being a person and taking into account the overall situation, the ministers plan for the future of the Wu country, and it is better for the young lord to succeed to the throne of King Wu a few years later. For the time being, a regent will be set up, and Sun Youtai will serve as the regent, and when Wu Guo has overcome the difficulties, he will return to the young master. I don't know ......."

"No, no...... Bo Fu succeeded to the throne of King Wu. It is the last order of the first king, I am shallow in learning, not successful, martial arts, even a too guarded is a little difficult, not to mention that Bo Fu is brave and abnormal, he once led the Ce Yu army to make a lot of contributions, and he has experienced enough. It is enough to shoulder the great responsibility of King Wu. Prime Minister, please do not go against the will of the previous king. Sun Jing hurriedly excused herself.

"Lord Sun. Your merits, the ministers are obvious to all, under your governance, the people of Wu County live and work in peace and contentment, and the law and order are stable, and the first king once said that Lord Sun has the talent to govern the country. Now the people of Wu are panicking, and they need a highly respected person to come out to stabilize the situation, looking at the ancestral royal family, there is only one person, Sun Youtai. Zhang Zhao argued with reason, he was afraid that Sun Ce would be young and vigorous, and once he was put on the throne, he would raise troops to attack Chu as soon as the country was mourned.

Zhang Zhao's impression of Sun Ce is not very good, mainly because Sun Ce has a flamboyant personality, and there are also young and frivolous people like Ce Yujun under his command, out of consideration for the future of Wu State, he still resolutely made this decision, and decided to unite with the ministers to prevent Sun Ce from succeeding to the throne, as long as it is temporarily delayed for two or three years, Wu State can gradually settle down.

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the officials who were close friends with Zhang Zhao echoed the voice, and some generals also followed suit.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao, and Zhang Hong didn't say a word and didn't make any statement.

"Your Excellency! What do you mean by that? The last order of the first king is to let the young master succeed to the throne, if you obstruct it like this, can it be that you can't communicate with foreign countries? Zhou Tai stood up, pointed at Zhang Zhao angrily, and scolded loudly.

"You're spewing blood! I'm just thinking about the future of Wu Guo, so what is my personal relationship? Zhang Zhao saw Zhou Tai jumping out, and pointed at his nose and shouted, so he sneered, "You are a little lieutenant, you dare to talk like this to this mansion!" ”

As soon as Zhou Tai heard this, his face suddenly became angry, and he shouted loudly: "You say it again? ”

"When you become a captain, don't be too aggressive, you have been a pirate, this is a fact, and it can never be changed." Zhang Zhao sneered.

"You ......" Zhou Tai was furious and strode towards Zhang Zhao.

"Youping! Retire! Don't be rude to the Prime Minister! Sun Ce stood on top of the main hall and scolded.

"But the king, the prime minister has no one in his eyes, and he actually ignores the last life of the first king...... Zhou Tai stopped and looked at Sun Ce and said.

"Stand down!" Sun Ce shouted again.

Zhou Tai didn't dare to disobey and retreated to his original position, and Ling Cao and Chen Wu hurriedly came over to comfort him.

Lu Su stood beside Zhou Tai, moved a step towards Zhou Tai, close to his ear, and whispered: "Youping, you did a stupid thing!" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Zhou Tai asked puzzled.

"What the Prime Minister is worried about is the king and the soldiers of the Ce Yu army, who are the soldiers of the Ce Yu army? There are pirates, grass bandits, bandits, and hooligans, although following the queen is no longer the atmosphere of the past, but there is still a sense of barbarism in the bones. I think that the reason why the prime minister prevented the king from taking over the throne was because he was afraid that the king would be hot-headed and would take the army to attack the state of Chu. When the first king was alive, the prime minister of the state strongly opposed the attack on the Chu State, let alone the king? You were provoked by him just now, you can look at it, and after a while, the other adults should also have more doubts about the king's ability. ”

"I ...... I didn't mean to......" Zhou Tai couldn't wait to find a hole to get into, with a look of shame.

"Forget it, the king won't blame you, what should come will always come, it's better to oppose at this time than to oppose after the king takes over the throne, at least the king will know what to do in the future." Lu Su analyzed.

"Then what to do now, if the young lord can't take over the throne, isn't that just to let the prime minister get his wish?" Zhou Tai said worriedly.

"Shhhh Don't make a noise, he's here. Everything can be solved! Lu Fan suddenly stabbed.

"Who?" Zhou Tai, Ling Cao, and Chen Wu asked in unison.

"He's coming." Lu Su and Lu Fan glanced out of the hall together, and a smile appeared on their faces.

Zhou Tai, Ling Cao, and Chen Wu looked outside the hall together, but saw Zhou Yu walking from the rain in military uniform. Hope suddenly ignited in the hearts of the three of them.

Sun Ce stood on top of the main hall, squinted at Zhang Hong, and asked, "Is the military advisor the same opinion as the prime minister?" ”

Zhang Hong took a step forward, hugged his fists and said, "It's the opposite. ”

"Zigang, you ......" Zhang Zhao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Zhang Hong's words.

Zhang Hong glanced at Zhang Zhao and walked to the center of the main hall. He bowed his hand to all the martial arts and said: "My lords, generals, the first king has left a will, let the young master succeed to the throne." And let me and the Prime Minister be in charge of supervising the country, and now the bones of the former king are not cold, and the people in the country of Wu are panicking, if we are not united internally. I can't do it as one. No matter who takes over the throne, the state of Wu will not last long. Therefore, I obeyed the last orders of the previous king and strongly supported the young lord to succeed to the throne. I believe in the kings, just as they believed in you. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Hong turned around and knelt down to Sun Ce and said, "Minister Zhang Hong, knock to see the king!" ”

"Wait for the king!" Zhou Tai, Ling Cao, Chen Wu, Lu Su, Lu Fan, Sun Jing, Sun Quan and others knelt on the ground together and bowed loudly.

Followed by. After Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, and Zu Mao looked at each other, they all knelt on the ground together. He bowed to Sun Ce and said, "The ministers are knocking to see the king!" ”

Zhang Zhao and other opponents of Sun Ce still stood there, after all, the number of opponents was the majority, and the number of people who agreed was only a very minority.

"Bang!"

A loud bang came from outside the main hall, and Zhou Yu, who was soaked all over, came into everyone's eyes, and the ancient ingot knife in his hand hung down on the ground, smashing a small pit on the ground of the main hall of King Wu's palace.

Zhang Zhao turned his head and saw that Zhou Yu actually appeared here, so he frowned and asked, "Zhou Gongjin, you can't be summoned by the king's order, how dare you go back to the royal city without permission?" ”

Zhou Yu glanced at Zhang Zhao, ignored it, put the ancient ingot knife on his shoulder, and strode towards the main hall.

At this time, the eyes of the ministers were attracted by the ancient ingot knife, remembering that Ling Cao once said that this knife was specially given to Zhou Yu by the first king, and seeing this knife was like seeing the first king.

Zhou Yu walked to the center of the hall under the strange gaze of the ministers, and with a "swish", he pulled out the ancient ingot knife, and the cold and shining ancient ingot knife instantly deterred the hearts of all the ministers.

Zhang Zhao saw Zhou Yu draw his sword, and hurriedly scolded: "Zhou Gongjin, this is the main hall of King Wu's palace, what is your intention when you enter the main hall with weapons and pull out your blade?" ”

Zhou Yu sneered and threw the ancient ingot knife directly to Sun Ce.

Sun Ce grabbed the handle of the ancient ingot knife and had already started it, and Sun Ce immediately cherished it.

"This knife is the property of the first king, although the dying will was handed over to the minister, the minister felt that it was better to return it to the king than in the hands of the minister, only the king deserved to have this thing, and could inherit this knife. The last order of the first king, seeing this knife is like seeing the first king, plus there is also a will, so that the young master will succeed to the throne, the minister does not dare to disobey, please hold the succession ceremony immediately. After speaking, Zhou Yu knelt on the ground.

Suddenly, outside the main hall, three thousand Ce Yu troops rushed to the square outside the main hall, standing in the wind and rain, neatly arranged, and shouted in unison: "Knock on the king!" Knock on the king! Knock on the king! ”

The sound was like bursts of rolling thunder, shocking everyone in the hall and soaring into the sky.

Zhang Zhao saw that the rest of the ministers knelt down one after another, and after a while, he was left standing there alone, which was particularly eye-catching.

"Knock on the king!" The ministers said in unison.

Sun Ce will be the ancient ingot knife skirt uΓ n cherry blossom squirting snail, bright ship sloppy vinegar rout, filthy squirrel, sloppy squirrel, sloppy squirrel, swagger, slight, sloppy

Zhang Zhao was helpless, sighed, reluctantly knelt down, and kowtowed to Sun Ce: "Minister Zhang Zibu, knock to see the king!" ”

Sun Ce sat on the throne, with a majestic appearance, stood the ancient ingot knife on his chest, and shouted: "From today on, I, Sun Ce, will take over the throne of my father." Everyone, please rise! ”

"Thank you, King!"

Outside the main hall, three thousand Ceyu troops also rose, and they were fully armed, cheering loudly outside: "The king is mighty! The king is mighty! The king is mighty! ”

Sun Ce walked down the steps, took the scabbard of the ancient ingot knife from Zhou Yu's hand, and after returning the knife into the sheath, he handed the ancient ingot knife to Zhou Yu and said: "This is the last order of the first king, since you are in charge of the ancient ingot knife, it must have its deep meaning, and now I will return this knife to you." ”

Zhou Yu smiled, took the ancient ingot knife, and didn't say anything.

Sun Ce also smiled, the two of them only needed one look, and they didn't need too many words, it was enough to know what the other party was thinking.

"Reportβ€”" A scout rushed from outside King Wu's hall, stretched out his voice, and shouted loudly.

Sun Ce walked straight out of the hall, met the scout, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The scout took a breath and hurriedly said: "Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, in the name of continuing the unification of the Han Dynasty, was proclaimed emperor in Chengdu half a month ago, and the country name was Han, and the year name was changed to the first year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty. In addition, the news reached Jingzhou, and Liu Bei, the king of Chu, also called the emperor in Xiangyang in the name of the descendants of the Han family and continued the Han unification, and the country name was Han, and the year name was changed to the first year of Tiantong. ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.

"Liu Zhang and Liu Bei are both descendants of the Han family, I didn't expect to be called emperors one after another, two Han came out at once, plus Ma Teng, there are three emperors in the world, it's really unpre......cedented," Sun Ce said carefully.

"King, now that the Han Dynasty has perished, from the dispute at the end of the Han Dynasty to the current dominance, the next road will be very difficult. Liu Bei and Liu Zhang have both been proclaimed emperors, and we should not be left behind. The minister implored the king to be the emperor on the same day, and I, the army and people of Wu, will surely cheer for it. Zhang Zhao judged the situation and immediately persuaded.

Sun Ce remained silent and asked the scout: "Is there any movement in Yan Kingdom?" ”

"Since the Yan State seized the Yuan, it has concentrated its forces in various important towns adjacent to other countries, and the news that Liu Zhang and Liu Bei are emperors must have also reached the Yan Kingdom. However, Yan Guo has not moved at all! ”

"Even the powerful Yan State did not claim the title of emperor, Liu Zhang and Liu Bei couldn't sit still first, jumping off the beam clown, there is nothing to worry about. If Yan is not the emperor, Wu is not the emperor. Sun Ce said resolutely.

"King Qiyu, the envoy sent by the Yan Kingdom, on behalf of the Marquis of Yan, came to pay his filial piety......" another scout ran from outside the palace and said loudly.

After Sun Ce heard this, he said, "Bring the Yan envoy to the main hall!" ”

On the main hall of the Wu Palace, all the Wu Qunchen stood on both sides, the clan retreated to the apse, and Sun Ce sat on the throne, staring at the envoys of the Yan Kingdom who came from outside.

"Foreign Minister Sima Lang, I have seen His Royal Highness King Wu." The military advisor sacrificed to Sima Lang, who was ordered to envoy Wu Guo, and as soon as he entered the main hall, he bowed to Sun Ce very politely.

"Why don't you kneel when you see this king?" Sun Ce saw that Sima Lang just arched his hand towards him, but did not kneel, so he asked.

"The foreign minister is not a minister of Wu, why do you want to kneel to King Wu? Kneel to the sky, kneel to the ground, kneel between the king and his parents, so, you can't kneel! Sima Lang didn't have the slightest fear, and said loudly.

"With a good mouth, aren't you afraid of angering this king?"

Sima Lang smiled and said, "The king is already angry, and he doesn't need his ministers to provoke him at all. The foreign minister came this time to bring down the anger of the king, and also came to pay tribute to the late king on behalf of my lord, and also brought a generous gift from my lord to the king to succeed King Wu. ”

"Oh? What kind of gifts? ”

Sima Lang immediately took out a gift list from his wide sleeves, held it high with both hands, and said loudly: "The generous gift has arrived in Lujiang by land, and Gu Yong, the Taishou of Lujiang, temporarily detained it in Lujiang County, this is a gift list, please look at it His Royal Highness King Wu!" ”

The palace man took the gift list and presented it to Sun Ce, after Sun Ce opened it, he hurriedly glanced at it, and his eyes lit up at the moment, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Finally, he looked at it again in disbelief, and then closed the gift list. (To be continued......)
