After Sun Quan became emperor, Zhuge Liang sent Chen Zhen, a guard commander, to celebrate Sun Quan's accession to the throne, and reached further cooperation with Wu, and the two sides agreed to share the world. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After Sun Quan was crowned king in Jian'an, he began to take Sun Shao as the prime minister, and then replaced him with Gu Yong, that is, there was no Zhang Zhao, who had the highest voice, and soon after Sun Quan became emperor, Zhang Zhao began to retreat.

【Divide the world】

After Sun Quan became emperor, many people in Shu Han were dissatisfied, believing that Sun Quan was disobedient and should sever relations with him, but Zhuge Liang was determined to recognize Sun Quan's status and divide the world with him.

According to the record of the Spring and Autumn Period of the Han Dynasty, in this year, King Wu sent an envoy to Shu to inform him that he had ascended the throne and proposed that the two countries should respect the two emperors. Shu Han believed that it was not beneficial to make friends with Wu and that the name system was not good, so he should show justice and break the friendly alliance.

Prime Minister Zhuge Liang said: "Sun Quan has been a usurper for a long time, so our country does not pursue his lack of righteousness and unkindness, because he has the help of his horns." Now, if we openly sever relations, Wu's hatred of us will surely deepen, and we will inevitably divert our efforts to strengthen our defense in the east. To confront the state of Wu, it is necessary to annex the territory of the state of Wu before we can talk about advancing the Central Plains. However, there are still many talented people in Wu State, civil and military generals, unity and harmony, and it is impossible to calm down all at once. If the soldiers are defensive, the veteran soldiers of the division are tired, so that the northern enemy can succeed, this is not a strategic strategy. In the past, Emperor Xiaowen was humble to the Xiongnu, and the first emperor was tolerant and generous to form an alliance with the Wu State, all of which weighed the situation, changed at any time, and pondered long-term interests. Now the people who are talking about it think that Sun Quan's interests lie in the full momentum, and he cannot join forces with us, and he is already full of ambition and has no desire for the Northern Expedition, so this inference is all specious. Why? It was his resourcefulness and strength that were not enough, so he used the Yangtze River as the boundary to protect himself; Sun Quan can't cross the river and go north, just like the Wei thief can't cross the Han River and go south, it's not because he has more power, and he doesn't take it if it's advantageous. If our army invades Wei, Sun Quan's best policy should be to occupy Wei's land first and then make plans, and if not, it should be to plunder the people to open up the territory and show force in the country, and he will never sit still. Even if he does not move and live in peace with us, we will not have to worry about the east from the north, and the troops south of the Wei and Yellow River will not all be mobilized to the west in order to guard against the state of Wu. Sun Quan's crime of usurping by false name should not be publicly stated. ”

So he sent the guard captain Chen Zhen to celebrate Sun Quan's accession to the throne. Sun Quan then negotiated with the Shu envoy to divide the world equally, and the two sides signed an alliance (Note 1), and the four prefectures of Yu, Qing, Xu, and You of Wei belonged to Wu; The four states of Yan, Hebei, and Liang belong to Shu. The land of Sizhou is divided into two countries by Hangu Pass.

After this meeting, the alliance between Shu Han and Sun Wu was further strengthened, and there was basically no more internal fighting between the two forces, and Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang also began to fight together, while the Cao Wei forces were forced into the defensive.

【Prime Minister Wu Guocheng】

Although the position of prime minister was high and powerful, Sun Shao, the first prime minister of Wu State, was basically unknown, and the later Gu Yong also had a limited reputation at the beginning, both of which were similar to Sun Quan's puppets and did not have much actual power. This is very different from the Zhuge Liang family of Shu Han.

In his early years, Sun Shao was the Gong Cao of Kong Rong, who called him "Lang Miaocai" (a person who can be appointed to an important position in the imperial court). Later, Sun Shao followed Liu Xuan to Jiangdong, probably after Liu Xuan was defeated, he was attached to Sun Ce, and later assisted Sun Quan, Sun Shao is said to have made several statements to Sun Quan, thinking that he should pay tribute to the imperial court and send letters, and Sun Quan adopted his advice. Sun Shao was appointed as the Taishou of Lujiang, and was later promoted to the chief of the chariot cavalry.

Sun Quan was called Queen Wu, Sun Shao was the first prime minister, and was crowned as General Weiyuan and Marquis of Yangxian. Zhang Wen and Ji Yan played to impeach him, Sun Shao asked for resignation to apologize, Sun Quan released him, and still made him prime minister.

Sun Shao was followed by Gu Yong, Gu Yong's reputation was not high at the beginning, and it may not even be as good as the original Sun Shao. Although Gu Yong was born in the Gu family of Jiangdong clan, and once studied in Cai Yong, his qualifications are shallow, and after being recommended by the state and county, he served as the mayor of Hefei when he was weak, and successively served as the county magistrate of Lou, Qu'a, and Shangyu, and he had achievements everywhere. After Sun Quan inherited his brother's throne and comprehended Ji Taishou, he did not go to the county, and took Gu Yong as the county leader, acting as Taishou, and Gu Yong begged to get rid of the thieves, making the county boundary tranquil, and the officials and the people submitted. A few years later, he entered the shogunate of Sun Quan as Zuo Sima.

It wasn't until Sun Quan became the queen of Wu that Gu Yong became a blockbuster, serving as Dali, Fengchang, and receiving the Shangshu Order, and sealing Yang Sui Township. It is said that after Gu Yong was sealed, his family didn't know about it at all, and they were surprised when they heard about it later.

In the fourth year of Huangwu (225), Gu Yong welcomed his mother to Wuchang in Wu County. After arriving in Wuchang, Sun Quan personally congratulated, worshiped his mother in court, and the ministers attended the banquet, and the later prince Sun Deng came to celebrate.

Gu Yong does not drink, is taciturn, and behaves appropriately. Sun Quan once sighed: "Gu Jun doesn't speak, as long as he speaks, he will be in the middle of his words." "When the ministers were drinking and feasting, everyone was afraid that their drunken gaffes would be seen by Gu Yong, so they didn't dare to enjoy themselves. Sun Quan also said: "Gu Gong is sitting down, so we can't be happy. "He's so awe-inspiring. In the same year, he was reappointed as Taichang, entered the Marquis of Liling, and soon became the prime minister and Pingshang on behalf of Sun Shao.

Sun Shao and Gu Yong's merits and prestige within Sun Wu are actually unconvincing, in the early days, when Sun Quan set up the prime minister, many people nominated Zhang Zhao to serve as the prime minister, but Sun Quan excused himself and said: "There are many things now, and the prime minister has a heavy responsibility, which is not a move to honor him." ”

So Sun Shao was appointed prime minister. After Sun Shao's death, everyone proposed to let Zhang Zhao serve as the prime minister, and Sun Quan said part of the real reason: "Why is Lone stingy with Zibu, just considering the complicated affairs of the prime minister, and his strong temperament, if his words are not listened to, there will be resentment and criticism, which is not beneficial to him." So he appointed Gu Yong as prime minister.

However, what Sun Quan said was actually only part of the reason, the actual reason was that Sun Quan didn't want to divide power, so he chose Sun Shao and Gu Yong, who lacked prestige and were relatively weak, instead of Zhang Zhao, who had high prestige and was very strong. After all, Sun Quan himself is very capable, unlike Liu Chan, who needs to rely on Prime Minister Zhuge Liang.

After all, the prime minister, as the head of the hundred officials, is actually the representative of the ministers, and there is a confrontation between him and the monarch, so Sun Quan has just been crowned the king, and many things need to be done slowly, and he also needs to suppress the power of the ministers as the emperor, and even if Lu Xun became the prime minister, he did not escape Sun Quan's suppression.

Note 1: "The heavens descended on the funeral, the emperor lost his narrative, the rebels took advantage of the provocation, and robbed the country, starting with Dong Zhuo and ending with Cao Cao, who was extremely vicious, covering the four seas, until Kyushu was torn apart, the whole world was unified, and the people and gods were bitter and resentful. and Cao Zipi, rebelled against the ugliness, recommended to be a traitor, stole the heavenly position, and looked for the traces of Pi, blocked the army and robbed the land, and did not ambush and punish. In the past, the co-workers were chaotic and Gao Xin was a teacher, and the three seedlings were dry and Yu Shun was recruited. Today's extermination, the fowl and its disciples, non-Han and Wu, who will be reinstated? If the husband abhors the evil and the violent, he will be guilty of his crimes, and it is advisable to divide the system first, and seize his land, so that the hearts of the people will know where they belong. It is to the Spring and Autumn Jin Marquis to defend the guard, first divide its field to the Song people, Si Qiyi also. And the ancient construction of major events, must first swear an oath, so Zhou Li has the official of the alliance, the book has an oath text, Han and Wu, although the belief is from the middle, but the division of the land and the realm, it is appropriate to have a covenant. Zhuge Prime Minister Dewei is far away, wearing his own country, and he is outside, with a sense of yin and yang, sincerity and heaven and earth, repeated alliances, and a sincere oath, so that the people of the East and the West will know about it. Therefore, the altar was set up to kill the animals, and the gods were announced, and then the book was added, and the heavens were deputy. Listen to the sky, Lingwei is pretty, Si Shen Si Alliance, and the gods are worshipped, all of them are coming. Since today's Han and Wu alliances, they have worked together to fight against Wei thieves, save the needy, share disasters and celebrate together, and have both likes and dislikes. If it is harmful to the Han, then Wu will cut it; If it is harmful to Wu, then Han will cut it. Each guards the territory, and does not violate each other. After passing on the leaf, the end is like the beginning. The Covenant of All Hundreds. It's all like a book. The letter is not glamorous, but it is really good. There is this alliance of Chongqing, creating chaos first, violating the two discords, being slow about the mandate of heaven, the god of God is the governor, the gods of the mountains and rivers are correcting or dying, and they are falling into their divisions, and there is no country of Kezuo. The great god of Yuer, its clear learning! ”
