Chapter 609: Internal and External Difficulties

The news that the Koto envoy was humiliated and committed suicide spread wildly.

Under the impetus of well-intentioned people, the news on the border of Jiangdong is even more so.

Coupled with those forces who were thinking about rebellion all the time, Jiangdong fell into a situation of internal and external difficulties for a while.

Wu Wangfu.

This is the third time in the past ten days that the security has been strengthened.

Regarding Sun Quan's laughter, Wu Wangfu tried his best not to leak it.

Therefore.

There is any news about Sun Quan, and the outside world knows nothing.

this day.

Zhang Zhao got up from the bed very tired, looked around, and the guards were all outside the house.

Fortunately, he specially ordered that no one should come in without his order.

He's been living here for almost half a month since he passed out last time.

It's not that his condition is serious, it's Sun Quan's order.

He still remembered that it was already the fifth day, and he knew that all of Sun Quan's performances were acting.

Even the chaotic situation outside now, he wants to see the Tao.

Even, including the secret passage in the room where he is!

If it weren't for Sun Quan personally coming to find him, Zhang Zhao wouldn't have known that even Sun Quan, where he lived, had been arranged.

Slowly getting up, Zhang Zhao got out of bed with some difficulty.

Although his health is fine, he is old after all.

After such a big emotional change, the body is always a little uncomfortable.

Glancing around again, Zhang Zhao slowly came to the bookshelf in the room.

Gently tap twice on a book, then twist it firmly.

Forthwith.

On the side wall, a secret door opened through one person.

After a little silence, Zhang Zhao stepped forward, and the secret door closed.

After less than a quarter of an hour of dim progress, another secret door appeared in front of Zhang Zhao.

This was the first time he had walked here, and he was inevitably a little flustered.

After looking around, he finally found an inconspicuous rope in the secret door.

Reaching out and pulling gently, there was immediately a crisp sound of bells.

"Jingle bell...."

I don't know why, when he heard the sound of the bell echoing in the dark passage, Zhang Zhao had a creepy feeling.

After waiting here for a long time, it wasn't until Zhang Zhao was about to pull the third time that the secret door made a dull sound and opened faintly.

With the opening of the secret door, Zhang Zhao saw Sun Quan sitting at the desk not far away.

His face still didn't look very good, but his spirit was unusually active.

I can't tell that this is a person who has just recovered from a serious illness!

"Meet the King!"

After Zhang Zhao came to Sun Quan's face, he respectfully clasped his fists and bowed.

"Gong Zhang has worked hard!" Sun Quan put down the book in his hand, raised his head and smiled slightly.

It seems that there is no change in him.

In fact, Zhang Zhao himself knew that Sun Quan had long been extremely disappointed in himself, but he didn't want to show it now.

It's like now.

If Zhang Zhao had come in the past, Sun Quan would have gotten up and politely invited him to sit aside.

Whether he really wants to or not, at least he will.

But.

Now it's different, he doesn't even have the idea of doing it.

Zhang Zhao sighed secretly, but he didn't have any thoughts.

If Sun Quan didn't change anything for him now, he wouldn't be used to it.

"King Lone asked you to come today, please leave it to Zhang Gong to do if you have something, and I hope that Zhang Gong will work hard!"

Sun Quan stretched out his hand and motioned for Zhang Zhao to sit in front of him, and said with a smile.

"The old minister doesn't dare! If the king has anything to ask, please tell me! Zhang Zhao slowly sat opposite Sun Quan, feeling apprehensive in his heart.

The more polite the other party was to him, the more panicked he was now.

He really knows Sun Quan too well, if the other party wants to clean up someone, it will be like this.

The more polite you are and the more generous the treatment, it means that you may be unlucky!

"The reason why the Lone King is like this has been fully informed to Zhang Gong, I don't know what you think now?"

After Zhang Zhao sat down, Sun Quan asked.

Zhang Zhao was silent.....

In the previous meetings, Sun Quan told Zhang Zhao all his thoughts.

Today's Koto is an unprecedented time of crisis.

Whether it is the state of Chu or the state of Wei, they are all eyeing them.

And now Jiangdong, whether it is Chu or Wei, has no chance of winning!

Especially the state of Chu.

Many of the fortresses in Koto have fallen into the hands of the other side.

Despite all these years, Sun Quan has not given up for a moment the struggle for these places.

But things didn't work out as expected.

Koto has not won a single war against these places.

As a result, as long as Chu Guo wants to, they can launch a surprise attack on themselves at any time.

This is also what worries Sun Quan the most.

Therefore, he wanted to take this opportunity to take advantage of his problems and try to break free from the gap between Chu and Wei.

Only in this way will Koto have a glimmer of vitality.

"The old minister thinks that only by agreeing to the conditions of the Chu State can he truly realize the idea in the king's heart!"

When Zhang Zhao said this, he was extremely careful.

He didn't know if this would stimulate Dao Sun Quan.

Fortunately, when he said this, Sun Quan was not abnormal.

"This matter, King Gu has already thought about it, you are right, only by agreeing to the request of the King of Chu will Wei feel that we are united with Chu State.

It even made them feel that we had been protected by the Chu State!|"

When he said these last words, Zhang Zhao obviously felt that Sun Quan's tone was unusually low.

Zhang Zhao understood that it was not easy to get Sun Quan to say such things.

"The old minister understands!"

"After that, you can do this, not only to do what King Chu asks, but also to add some more!" Sun Quan picked up a book again and said lightly.

"Huh?" Zhang Zhao was obviously stunned, and he didn't understand what Sun Quan meant.

The reason why Sun Quan became like this was because of the unreasonable demands of the king of Chu.

Now Sun Quan has to increase, which makes Zhang Zhao a little incomprehensible.

"Best, double...."

Sun Quan said another sentence before Zhang Zhao could react.

"What does the king mean?" Zhang Zhao finally couldn't help but ask.

"King Chu means to send it once a year, so let's send it twice this year!" Sun Quan turned the page leisurely and said very casually.

"Hurry up and do it, your illness should be cured!"

When Zhang Zhao wanted to speak again, Sun Quan waved his hand.

Although Zhang Zhao still had a stomach full of questions to ask, seeing that Sun Quan didn't want to talk anymore, he still hugged his fists and left.

It wasn't until Zhang Zhao left here in confusion that Sun Quan slowly closed the book in his hand.

"Every year... Who knows what will happen next year? ”

Sun Quan's deep voice echoed in the room......
