Chapter 0757: Sun Quan's Ambition
The self-proclaimed orthodox Shu State of the Han Dynasty would not agree to his proposal to respect the two emperors, and Sun Quan was not very sure in his heart.
Even he was ready to turn his face with Shu.
Anyway, in his opinion, Wei suffered two defeats in a row last year, coupled with Cao Xiu's death, Wei was unable to go south in a short period of time.
It can be seen from the arrangement of the Wei army in Hefei that the Wei State has even shrunk its defensive line and only holds the key passes.
There is no longer the pressure of wanting to cross the river and go south from time to time.
In the end, if it really doesn't work, it is not impossible to make peace with Wei again.
Anyway, with the current appearance of Wei State, coupled with the unstable foundation of Emperor Wei Cao Rui and his young age, I believe that he will not refuse his kindness.
At that time, Wei State can attack Longyou and Hanzhong with all its might, if he increases his troops in Baqiu and increases the pressure on Shu, what is the difference between this situation and when Liu Bei's army was defeated a few years ago?
If it really comes to that point, Shu will naturally recognize the reality and obediently send someone over again to make peace with him.
Therefore, Shu not only sent people out to congratulate him on his ascension to the throne, but also made it clear that the alliance between Shu and Wu was officially announced to the world.
It was really unexpected.
This is an alliance in the name of the state, and it is no longer a verbal covenant of the past.
If you betray the alliance again, you will be abandoned by the people of the world.
Sun Quan thought a lot in a short period of time.
"What does Your Majesty think of this proposal?"
Chen Zhen at the bottom opened his mouth and asked.
Sun Quan picked up the national letter and read it carefully from beginning to end.
Judging from the current situation of the three countries, the formal declaration of the alliance between the two countries is actually more beneficial to the state of Wu.
Because if Wu wants to go west into Shu, not only will he have to go upstream, but the terrain of Yong'an is dangerous, and he can't get around.
But if Shu wants to go east, it only needs to go down the river.
After the formal alliance in the name of the two countries, it also meant that Shu recognized Wu's ownership of Jingzhou.
It's just that Sun Quan survived Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Cao Pi to death, and he can be regarded as a tolerant character.
How can it be so easy to make a statement?
I saw him pretend to mutter for a while, and then he spoke, "Han and Wu are allies, and everyone knows about it. Now, if you want to officially announce the emperor to the queen of heaven, it will take some time to prepare. ”
"And the matter of dividing the world between China is related to the national fortunes of the two countries, and in a hurry, Wu Guo is not prepared, so he must discuss it carefully."
Chen Zhen nodded, "This is natural. Then the minister waited for the good news from His Majesty. ”
Sent someone to send the envoy of Shu out of the court, Sun Quan dismissed the court, and ordered the chamberlain to summon Lu Xun, Gu Yong and other important ministers into the palace to discuss.
After handing the letter of Shu to a few people to read, Sun Quan asked: "What should you think of this matter?" ”
"For example, today, the three-legged stand, Wei occupies eight points in the world, and Wu Shu is an alliance to resist Wei together, which is natural."
As the prime minister of Wu State, Gu Yong took the lead in speaking, "And Wu Shu has already had an alliance, and the two countries have officially sworn an alliance, but it is just a real name." ”
"And Your Majesty ascended the throne of Dabao and swore an oath with Shu, which just shows that Wu is standing side by side with Shu."
Sun Quan listened and nodded secretly.
Even if he didn't admit it on the surface, in his heart, he had to admit that among the Three Kingdoms, Wu lacked the legal principle of being the emperor.
Otherwise, it would not have been repeatedly emphasized in the enthronement edict that the Han family did not exist.
Because the monarchs and ministers of the Wu State were nominally the courtiers of the Han family.
If the Han family still exists and rashly proclaims to be the emperor, what is the difference between it and the Cao thief who he claims to be crusading against?
So now the Han family must no longer exist.
Although the Shu Kingdom in the west is named after Han, it is based on only a state, how can it be regarded as a Huanghuang Han Dynasty?
Now that Shu has officially recognized the two emperors of Wu, no matter what, they finally have some confidence.
"What about Bo Yan's opinion?"
Sun Quan asked Lu Xun.
Lu Xun agreed: "The prime minister is right, the oath of the alliance on the altar is just to add a name to the alliance of Wu Shu." ”
"Since the prime minister and the general are in agreement, then the matter cannot be wrong."
Sun Quan nodded, there was some hesitation on his face, "It's just that this division of the world, what do you think of this division?" ”
In the national book of Shu, the world is about divided, Shu takes the Yongliang land west of Hanguguan, and the three states of Merge, Hebei and Youyou north of the big river.
And Wu took the Han Guguan to the west, south of the river of Henan, Qing, Xu, Yan four prefectures.
If they can really join forces to destroy Wei in the future, this division is very reasonable.
Even Wu took advantage.
Because even if Shu took the land of Yongliang, it would be far more difficult to cross the Great River to the north and take the land of the three states of Hebei than the Wu State to the north from Jingzhou and Yangzhou.
Gu Yongzheng, who didn't think there was anything wrong, wanted to nod, but Lu Xun suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, what else do you think?" ”
Sun Quan looked at Lu Xun, his eyes flashed very vaguely, but there was no change on his face.
"Yes. Since Bo Yan can see that I have something else in mind, he may guess what I am thinking? ”
Lu Xun didn't notice it, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty doesn't want Youzhou?" ”
Sun Quan finally had a shocked face: "How do you know?" ”
Lu Xun smiled confidently: "Since Gongsun Yuan seized the position of his uncle last year and ruled the land of Liaodong, he has secretly sent people to contact my Wu State. ”
"In Your Majesty's palace, there are still a few good horses from Liaodong. Therefore, I think that the king is afraid that he has already borrowed the power of Liaodong to try to kill the heart of a thief. ”
Sun Quan's face changed slightly, and then he smiled: "Sure enough, Bo Yan knows my heart!" Na Boyan thinks, is this method possible? ”
Lu Xun seems to have thought about this issue a long time ago: "Your Majesty is very worried. I, Wu Guo, am long in boats, and can travel north by sea to connect with Liaodong. ”
"Gongsun's family, who have been in Liaodong for a long time, inherited the third generation, although they are obviously subservient to Wei, but they are actually self-appointed officials."
"And since Gongsun Yuan was in charge of Liaodong, he took the initiative to send a good horse to His Majesty, which is enough to show his will, and he will not be under the Wei State for a long time."
"That's why it's called a long-distance and close attack. Your Majesty's plan is far-reaching. ”
Sun Quan listened to Lu Xun's words, and his heart was overjoyed.
The little bit of dislike that was just peeped at was also dispersed.
"Since Bo Yan said so, then I will give Gongsun Yuan a heavy gift, in order to make friends, and then I can buy a good war horse from Liaodong, how so?"
As soon as Lu Xun heard Sun Quan's words, he hurriedly dissuaded: "Your Majesty, induce Gongsun Yuan to rebel against Wei, but also; But if you treat it too much, don't do it! ”
When Sun Quan heard this, he frowned a little: "If you don't treat him with great courtesy, how can people from afar seek great things with me?" ”
"Your Majesty, Liaodong is close to Wei and far from Wu. Once there was an incident, it was impossible to save it, and Gongsun Yuan was suspected of repeating between Wei and Wu. ”
"If you give them a great gift and buy horses from there, the treasures and money of the fleet will be incalculable."
"At that time, Gongsun Yuan really wants to repeat himself, and the treasures, money, and grain will no longer be owned by Wu State. Why don't you just send an envoy with an edict and give him a knighthood. ”
"After seeing what he did in the future, if it is true that he really rebelled against Wei and returned to Wu, he will discuss it separately."
Lu Xun suggested earnestly.
Sun Quan was a little unimpressed by this.
Gongsun Yuan is also a hegemonic figure, if he really wants to surrender to him, wouldn't his empty mouth and white teeth make people feel that he is insulting him?
What's more, I am also a dignified emperor now, and if I am knighted and not rewarded, the world will only say that I am stingy, how can I accept the hearts of the people of the world in the future?
It's just that at the moment, Liaodong and Wu have only tentatively communicated with each other, and it is far from the time to talk about this matter.
So Sun Quan was noncommittal to Lu Xun, and turned the topic back to the most important thing in front of him: "What does Bo Yan think about Shu Kingdom's desire to divide Youzhou?" ”
This time it was Lu Xun's turn to disagree.
If you really want to wait for the Shu State to obtain Youzhou, I am afraid that the Wei State will also perish long ago.
Does Your Majesty really think that the two kingdoms of Shu and Wu can divide the world safely?
It's just that he knows that Sun Quan has just ascended the throne, and it is when he wants to do something, and he has the heart to swallow Wei, which is understandable.
"If Your Majesty has such great ambitions, then it is better to let the Shu envoy divide Youzhou to Wu State, I think he should not have any opinions."
Lu Xun suggested.
"Good."
Sun Quan's head.
The next day, Sun Quan sent the palace attendants with gifts to Zhang Zhao's house, who was idle, to greet him.
"Father, father, the palace has sent someone over."
Zhang Zhen, the grandson of Zhang Zhao, ran into the house in a panic and shouted loudly.
Zhang Zhao, who had white hair, was sitting in the room annotating "The Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period", when he heard his grandson's shout, his face was first happy, and he was about to stand up.
But suddenly he remembered something, and sat back down, as if he hadn't heard anything.
"Father, someone came to the palace, saying that His Majesty rewarded something."
Zhang Zhen ran into the house, but repeated it again in a hurried tone.
After Zhang Zhao finished writing a paragraph, he raised his head and reprimanded: "It's just someone from the palace, what are you panicking about?" ”
"The gentleman has a moderate amount of words and deeds, what do you think you look like now?"
Zhang Zhen didn't expect his eldest father to react to the people in the palace, but scolded himself.
At the moment, I don't know what to say.
Seeing that the eldest father finished scolding himself, and then lowered his head again and continued to write, Zhang Zhen was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, but he didn't dare to say more.
It wasn't until Zhang Zhao finished writing the last sentence that he put down his pen, then stood up and walked slowly to the front house.
Zhang Zhen beat a drum in his heart, secretly saying that the eldest father was originally ordered by His Majesty to live at home, and now he neglects the angel like this, will he cause any trouble?
Thinking like this, he followed his eldest father all the way to the vestibule, but when he saw his eldest father, he actually saluted his eldest father first: "I have seen General Fu Wu." ”
Zhang Zhao turned sideways and stepped aside, with a sneer on his face: "I'm just an idler, how can I afford this big gift?" ”
The palace attendant laughed with him: "General Fu Wu said that he laughed, before the slave maid left the palace, His Majesty personally ordered it." ”
"It is said that General Fu Wu is His Majesty's mentor, and when the slave and maid see General Fu Wu, they must salute and greet him."
There was an "ah" from the side, and it was full of disbelief.
It turned out that Zhang Zhen, who had been responsible for a long time, saw the attitude of the waiter, and when he heard these words, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide and screamed.
Zhang Zhao turned his head and glared angrily at this uncompetitive grandson.
The chamberlain who can come out of the palace, which one is not good?
He just pretended not to hear anything, not to see anything, and only passed on the emperor's attitude and dictation to Zhang Zhao:
"General Fu Wu, Your Majesty said, he hasn't seen the old general for a long time, and he is very thirsty in his heart."
"Your Majesty now regrets what you did before, if the old general is free, you might as well enter the palace to see Your Majesty, and comfort Your Majesty's longing."
Zhang Zhao's face was finally moved this time: "Your Majesty really said so?" ”
The chamberlain said with trepidation: "The old general's words, should it really torment the slave and maid, and the slave and maid dare to falsely convey His Majesty's intentions?" ”
Zhang Zhao sighed: "With the respect of Your Majesty, you can actually do this, as a courtier, I dare to delay a while?" ”
"Please ask the envoy to go back and spread the word, the old minister is waiting for His Majesty's summons all the time."
When the chamberlain heard this, he hurriedly said, "Don't dare to hide it from the old general, the car sent by the palace is already waiting outside the door." ”
"If the old general is willing to enter the palace immediately, Your Majesty will not be happy."
When Zhang Zhao heard this, he was even more surprised, and at the same time, he was very moved.
Before Sun Cexu, the king of Changsha Huan, entrusted His Majesty to himself.
In the past thirty years, I can be regarded as doing my best to assist Your Majesty.
watched him take over Jiangdong from immaturity, to go through all things, and finally grow into a generation of emperors.
In my own opinion, there is no difference between myself and His Majesty, as if it were a loving father and a son.
Although after His Majesty ascended the throne, he broke his heart for what he said and did.
But who of the loving fathers in this world would really blame their children?
Zhang Zhao, who was driving in the car, was churning all the way, thinking of what Sun Quan had done before and now, and his heart was sad and happy.
Until the car stopped, I could only hear a voice outside: "Old general, it's here." ”
Zhang Zhao woke up in shock.
He rolled over the curtain and got out of the car, only to see a small yellow door carrying the chariot, waiting there.
The chamberlain helped him up to sit on the chariot and went all the way straight into the palace.
"Zhang Gong, you're finally here!"
Sun Quan personally stood at the door to greet Zhang Zhao, and before the little yellow door stopped, he personally helped Zhang Zhao into and invited him to take a seat.
Seeing Sun Quan like this, Zhang Zhao's eyes were hot, and he saluted Sun Quan deeply: "Your Majesty is the co-lord of the world, how dare the old minister sit on His Majesty's seat?" ”
After saying that, he wanted to sit down.
Sun Quan knelt down and stopped, "Back then, I treated Zhang Gong like a teacher, and Zhang Gong regarded me as a son." If the son is at fault, the father scolds him or beats him, but he always has to regulate his words and deeds. ”
"Now that I'm wrong, does Gong Zhang want to give up on me?"
Sun Quan's words and deeds forcibly pressed Zhang Zhao on the upper seat.
After Zhang Zhao sat down, he looked up to the sky and sighed:
"In the past, the Queen Mother and King Huan all handed over Your Majesty to the old minister, not to your Majesty, so this old minister wants to be thrifty and want to repay his kindness."
"However, the old minister is shallow and thoughtful, and there are many omissions during the period, so there are many acts of disobedience to His Majesty, not intentionally, but really the old minister is showing loyalty."
"Now Your Majesty does not think that the minister was wrong before, and then reinvigorates the call, and has to be left and right, and the old minister can only be loyal and die."
When Sun Quan heard this, he thanked him.
Sun Quan told the envoy of Shu again, and asked Zhang Zhao to formulate the process and rules for setting up an altar and vowing alliance.
