Chapter 296: As You Wish
When Sun Quan said this, the implication was that he had already agreed to Zhou Yu's request to resign as the governor of Jiangdong, and his intention was just to let Zhou Yu not make the matter public for the time being, and give him some time to find a suitable candidate.
Sun Quan was so anxious that he didn't even ask Zhou Yu who could take over the position of Jiangdong governor, Zhou Yu saw it in his eyes, and he was in a trance, and this full twenty years of serving the Jiangdong Sun family finally disappeared at this moment.
At this moment, Zhou Yu couldn't help but admire Liu Feng a little more, this overlord of Jingzhou, who was nearly 20 years younger than him, had already asserted a few days ago that only if Zhou Yu took the initiative to ask Sun Quan to resign, Sun Quan would not do that kind of thing to Zhou Yu again.
Seeing Sun Quan's face, Zhou Yu was very glad that he did not go against Liu Feng's opinion, his original intention was to try again, to see if Sun Quan was really ruthless to him, and did not miss the old love, just because his wife and children were all tied to him, so he chose the advice provided by Liu Feng, and now it seems that this decision is extremely correct.
"I think I Jiangdong is full of talents, young talents are numerous, if you want to find someone to replace me is very easy, since you have to see the lord today, Yu's wish has been fulfilled, now since Yu is a waste, it is even more inconvenient to appear in the Jiangdong court, after the lord returns, he can arrange the position of the governor, and he can clean up in these two days, Yu and his wife and children take a small boat to travel between the rivers and mountains in my Jiangdong, and this life will be happy."
Zhou Yu obviously had grasped Sun Quan's psychology, and naturally knew how to deal with the current situation, so he simply told Sun Quan about his plan, and then didn't forget to cough a few times to show that he was indeed seriously ill.
"Gong Jin don't be so excited, since you need to have a good life and cultivation, I just agree to what Gong Jin invited, if Gong Jin is tired of traveling abroad, and his body is also recovering, don't forget to return here, Gong Jin's money, I will still send it to the house on a daily basis, and it will not make Gong Jin's hands tight."
After making such a trivial promise, the matter of the change of the governor of Jiangdong was settled in Zhou Yu's room full of the smell of herbs.
Sun Quan observed Zhou Yu carefully, and became more and more sure in his heart of what the previous doctors said to him, these several chronic poisons in Zhou Yu's body, if no one treats him for a few days, will cause irreversible damage to his lungs, so Sun Quan is sure that although Zhou Yu has now picked up a life, it is obvious that this so-called irreversible damage has been formed in his body, and because of this, Zhou Yu, the biggest stumbling block to his full control of the situation in Jiangdong, was finally kicked away by him today.
In front of Lu Su, he has already made a sufficient gesture, so that even if he returns to the court today and appoints Lu Meng and Lu Xun as the left and right governors, the ministers of Jiangdong will never say anything, because these are all based on the fact that Zhou Yu is seriously ill and voluntarily gives up his position as governor, not to mention that there is a witness like Lu Su who is very close to Zhou Yu.
"Yu, thank you, thank you, and ask the lord to say goodbye to the ministers of Jiangdong on behalf of Yu, Yu's body is so unbearable, so he will no longer be ugly in front of everyone."
After Zhou Yu said something that made Sun Quan's heart flutter, Sun Quan was finally almost completely sure that Zhou Yu, a generation of famous ministers who had been in the limelight in the Battle of Chibi and who could still perceive and influence the power of the Jiangdong court even though he did not control the military power, would finally retire from the Jiangdong stage at the age of forty.
The vacancy left by Zhou Yu will be occupied by Sun Quan, the real lord of Jiangdong, and from then on, there will never be a situation in Jiangdong where anyone only knows Zhou Gongjin and does not know Sun Zhongmou, Sun Quan can finally carry out an all-round transformation of Jiangdong according to his own ideas, and form an alliance with the people he wants to ally with the people he wants to be enemies with the people he wants to be enemies in his heart.
After deciding this matter, Sun Quan didn't want to stay in Zhou Yu's mansion for a while, so he made an excuse at random and left, as for what he wanted to do, not only did he know it, but Zhou Yu and Lu Su who was standing behind Sun Quan also knew it.
"Zijing, you and Gongjin haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's okay to stay in the mansion to catch up with the past, I still have important things to do in the court, so I went back."
The meaning of Sun Quan's words is very obvious, the important thing in the court must be to discuss the ownership of the position of the governor who has just been vacated, and Lu Su is obviously not among the people that Sun Quan wants to discuss, this is just a disguised drive Lu Su away from his side.
"The lord just goes, it's natural for me to disturb in the Gongjin Mansion for a while." When Lu Su heard this, how could he not act according to Sun Quan's thoughts, he wanted to return to his mansion, but when he looked at Zhou Yu, he saw the imperceptible light in Zhou Yu's eyes, so he changed his mind and stayed in Zhou Yu's mansion along the river.
Xiao Qiao saw Sun Quan proudly lead the guards to leave the mansion, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Zhou Yu had secretly left for two days before, although this matter was very hidden, she was still afraid that someone would see and inform Sun Quan, and now looking at Sun Quan's situation, she naturally didn't know about it, thinking that Zhou Yu had been in the mansion to take care of her body these days.
"Zijing these days, I'm afraid it's hard to sleep, right?" After sending Sun Quan away, Lu Su and Zhou Yu returned to Zhou Yu's room, and as soon as the two sat down, Zhou Yu looked at Lu Su with a smile and suddenly asked.
"Gong Jin almost lost his life, although he is fine now, but I don't know when he will recover, don't make fun of me." Lu Su had a wry smile on his face when he heard this, obviously Zhou Yu's guess was very accurate, and his life was indeed not easy.
"Between you and me, there is no need to hide it anymore, I don't know what Zijing thinks, this time I resigned from the position of the governor, who will the main guild entrust this position to?" Zhou Yu asked with a smile.
"According to the news that has come out of the court these days, when one of Lu Meng and Lu Xun replaces Gong Jin, and the other person will also be greatly used, from today onwards, the wind direction above my Jiangdong court is afraid that it will be very different from the past." Lu Su sighed, but still said the truth.
"Where does that son want to go?"
Zhou Yu's words suddenly moved Lu Su, who was already a little disheartened and wanted to live in this life, he knew that Zhou Yu would never say useless words, since he said so, it must be a plan in his heart, so he asked tentatively: "What does Gong Jin mean by this?" ”
