Xu Du, Prime Minister's Mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After Lu Bu's trouble, although Lu Bu still compromised in the end, Cao Cao was holding back the fire in his heart - Cao Cao's wife, Mrs. Ding, heard that Cao Cao actually married Cao Zhi to Lu Bu, a person who can be Cao Zhi's father, especially because the fuse turned out to be Cao Cao's fornication with Lu Bu's concubine Chen Yuanyuan, and what is even more special is that Cao Zhi's brother just died in Hongnong a year ago because of Cao Cao's flowery heart, and Mrs. Ding and Cao Cao have been arguing.

Although Mrs. Ding is now old and decrepit, Cao Cao's feelings for Mrs. Ding are indeed true, so no matter how Mrs. Ding makes noise in his ears, he has always endured it. In the end, Mrs. Ding put forward the final condition: no matter what, Chen Yuanyuan could not be allowed to enter the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and if Chen Yuanyuan entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, then she would have to go back to her mother's house to live. Cao manipulated all kinds of good words, but he still couldn't change Mrs. Ding's determination.

Cao Cao had no choice but to compromise, but he was reluctant to leave behind such a charming beauty as Chen Yuanyuan, and spending so many ecstatic nights with Chen Yuanyuan made Cao Cao have endless memories. Cao Cao asked people to find a house not far from the Prime Minister of Xudu's mansion, and let Chen Yuanyuan live there temporarily, in order to appease Mrs. Ding's anger, Cao Cao did not immediately look for Chen Yuanyuan, but let people take care of him.

Just when Cao Cao was very depressed and had nowhere to vent, Cao Cao received a secret letter that made him feel happy all of a sudden-Sun Jing wrote that Sun Ce was about to die of illness and hoped that Cao Cao could help him take the throne.

Cao Cao immediately ordered Cao Ren and Cai Mao to lead an army of 10,000 each to enter Changsha, thinking that Sun Jing would be the backup. Once there was a change in Changsha, Cao Ren and Cai Mao would be able to detect it as soon as possible and take the most beneficial action for Cao Cao.

It's just that Sun Ce in Changsha didn't know anything about this at this time.

Sun Ce's body was not as good as day by day at this time, coughing up blood every day, and the blood was dull, Sun Ce knew that he had no more days, so he dragged his body and gathered all the civil and military and clan under his command together, and finally determined the position of the heir.

At this time, the Sun clan had Sun Jing, Sun Quan, Sun Yi, as well as Sun Ce's mother Mrs. Wu, his wife Fang Jinzhi, civil officials such as Kou Zhun, Er Zhang, Lu Fan, etc., military generals Zhou Yu, Fang Wending, Lu Su, Gao Changgong, Gan Ning, Cheng Pu, Zhu Zhi, Zhang Yu, and Han Dang and Liao Li, who rushed back from Guiyang.

"Princes, some of them are old ministers who followed their father to fight in the south and the north, and some are wise men and talents who were personally recruited by Ce. I thought that with the assistance of the public, I would definitely be able to make a contribution in this troubled era and make you famous in history. It's just that I didn't expect that Ce was unfortunately victimized by a traitor, and time was short, although I had hatred in my heart, I also knew that the overall situation was important. There is no successor this time, so I summoned all the princes to come and discuss it together. ”

At this time, everyone was silent, no one knew what to say, Kou Zhun took a look, and took the lead in replying: "This is a family matter of the lord, and it is inconvenient for me and other foreign ministers to discuss it in vain." ”

Kou Zhun's words made Sun Ce a little dissatisfied, but Sun Ce didn't say it, but at this time, Zhang Yu looked at Kou Zhun and said, "Master Kou's words are wrong!" Sun's foundation, is the late Sun Taishou and many veterans together, if you can't choose a suitable successor, if you lose the foundation in the future, which one of me has the face to see the lord of the spring? This is not a family matter, it is really a major event related to the foundation of the Sun family! ”

Kou Zhun looked at Zhang Yu and sneered: "I and the other old ministers still dare not discuss this matter, could it be that General Zhang thinks that he can still be qualified to see the old master when he arrives at the spring?" ”

Kou Zhun's words suddenly made Zhang Yu's face turn red, and he was speechless, so he had to retreat, but Sun Ce coughed twice, and then said: "General Zhang's words are quite reasonable, and this foundation has the credit of the princes, so the heirs and the princes also need to participate in the discussion." ”

At this time, Mrs. Wu on the side took the lead in breaking the deadlock, looked at Sun Ce, and then looked at everyone, "The foundation of the Sun family was laid down by my husband and my son and all the civil and military together. Originally, the father died and the son succeeded, but it was a pity that my son did not have a son yet, so he could only die as a brother. The second son Sun Quan, smart and benevolent, and the lord of the eloquent strategy, the old man thinks that he can inherit the foundation of the Sun family, expand the territory, and maintain the prosperity of the Sun family forever! ”

Although Mrs. Wu privately mentioned to Sun Ce that she wanted to establish Sun Quan as the master, Sun Ce only excused herself and said that she was afraid that everyone would not accept it, so she would discuss with the civil and military forces before making a decision. So Mrs. Wu was the first to mention Sun Quan's name, and at this time, Zhang Yu, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Zhu Zhi and others, and even Gan Ning, all bowed their hands to Mrs. Wu and said: "What the old lady said is in line with heaven and people, and we are willing to serve the second son!" ”

When Sun Ce heard this, he didn't feel surprised, many of these people were Sun Jian's old subordinates, and they supported themselves at the beginning, also because they were the eldest son; Now that the eldest son is gone, it is reasonable to continue to postpone and support Sun Quan.

At this time, Sun Ce looked at Sun Jing, but Sun Jing still looked light, but at this time, Zhao Yi stood up and arched his hand: "The last general has a word: although the second prince is the second brother of the lord, but when the lord ordered him to lead the troops to garrison Nanjun, because of his wrong actions, Jingzhou fell into the hands of Cao thieves, so that the lord's years of hard work were ruined, and the sacrifices of many soldiers were in vain, and even General Fang La, the commander of the naval army at that time, was killed for some reason. This made the officers and soldiers of the three armies have a lot of complaints about the second son, so the last general thinks that if the second son is the main one, it will be difficult to convince the public, and I hope that the lord will think twice! ”

As soon as these words came out, Cheng Pu was immediately angry, "The defeat of Nanjun and the loss of Jiangxia, how can it be the responsibility of the second son alone?" General Zhao's words like this, could it be that he has different intentions? ”

Zhao Yi smiled, "General Cheng, don't get excited, I'm just talking about things; Moreover, the Sun family is not just a second son. ”

The corner of Sun Ce's mouth sneered, although Sun Jing did not stand up, it was obvious that the person Zhao Yi was referring to was him, but he didn't know what benefits Sun Jing gave Zhao Yi to make Zhao Yi so desperate to speak for him.

"General Zhao thinks that there is anyone else in the Sun family who is more popular?" Sun Ce asked quietly.

Zhao Yi took a deep breath, now he is standing on the cusp, but he has already made up his mind, looking at the civil and military people around him: "Everyone, there is a person who has followed my lord since the day he sent out his army, and devoted all his family resources to help the Sun family establish a foundation; After the misfortune of the lord, he assisted the lord in the southern and northern wars, and no one knew the great credit. Zhao Yi is not meritorious, not famous, what he said is only for the sake of the Sun family's foundation to last for a long time, in order to repay the grace of the lord's knowledge, and hope that the lord will be clear! ”
