Chapter 281 Jiangnan Chapter (2) Dongwu Chapter 7

Chapter 281 Poor Gong Jin schemed in vain, and forbearance conspired to be suspicious

The book said that Zhou Gongjin finally captured Jiaozhi after some strategy and bloodthirsty hard fighting. This can be regarded as a complete victory, and it has earned a large area of land for the expansion of the territory of Soochow, and it should be happy.

Who knows, Jiuzhen County, one of the two northern counties in Jiaozhou, was captured by Liu Biao, the king of Jiangling in Jingzhou, and then the holy decree arrived, and he actually sent troops to escort Shixie and others into Beijing.

It turns out that all this is in someone else's plan, and he is just a chess piece.

Within two days, Zhou Gongjin was injured twice in a row, and the latter time he was so angry that he vomited blood.

took over Jiaozhi, and Zhou Yu recuperated for a few days.

On this day, Jian Yong came to see him.

"Gong Jin, how is your body recovering?" Jian Yong asked.

Zhou Yu looked at Jian Yong, who was smiling, and knew that this was to urge Shixie, so he pretended to be still sick and said, "Hey, it's still not any better!" ”

Jian Yong scolded secretly in his heart, but he said casually: "Gongjin's body is like this, you should rest more!" Fortunately, Your Majesty did not hand over the affairs of the northern part of Jiaozhou to King Wu, otherwise it would really exhaust you! ”

"Huh?! What the? As soon as he heard this, Zhou Yu immediately became smart, and he didn't look sick at all.

"Ou, Gongjin, ......" Jian Yong deliberately looked at Zhou Yu with wide eyes.

Seeing Jian Yong's surprised look, Zhou Yu realized that he had missed the horse's feet, hurriedly put it back, and hurriedly said, "Ah, it's okay, it's okay!" What did you mean, sir......"

From Jian Yong's words, he heard that something was wrong.

Jian Yong naturally knew that Cheng Pu and everyone took care of Zhou Yu's body, and no one dared to tell him that Cangwu County had fallen into Liu Biao's hands. But he's different! He originally came to Qi Zhou Yu, so naturally he wouldn't take care of this.

But he heard him say: "Your Majesty takes into account that you are not in good health and it is inconvenient to work, so you ordered Cai Mao, the general under the command of King Jiangling, to pacify Cangwu. Now that the whole territory of Jiaozhou has been pacified, you can also escort the Shi family and other rebels into Beijing! ”

Zhou Yu's face twitched fiercely, don't turn around, and then said: "Doctor Jian, don't worry, tomorrow Yu will arrange it, and you will definitely not miss your trip!" ”

Seeing that the goal was achieved, Jian Yong laughed and said, "Since Gong Jin said this, naturally he won't be wrong again!" I also hope that Gongjin can recover soon! Farewell! ”

……

After Jian Yong left, Zhou Yu didn't hold back again, spurted out a mouthful of blood with a "wow", and crawled weakly on the table. After a while, he shouted: "Come on, please General Cheng and Lu Zijing." ”

"No!" The guards outside heard him before entering.

After a while, Cheng Pu and Lu Su arrived.

"Ah, ...... you, Metropolitan Governor?" Lu Su saw that Zhou Yu's face was pale and there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and asked worriedly.

Zhou Yu waved his hand and asked, "Is Cangwu also occupied by Liu Biaojun?" Didn't you already know?! ”

Lu Su glanced at Cheng Pu, hesitated for a moment, and comforted: "Dudu, the most important thing at the moment is that you should take care of your body with peace of mind, these things are handled by me and the old general!" ”

"Hey! It seems that what Jian Yong said is true! After all, I still fell for Zhuge Liang's plan, and I lost a move! Zhou Yu sighed and sat down slowly, his loose hair covering his sadness.

Cheng Pu persuaded on the side: "Governor, after this battle, we have captured the five counties of Jiaozhou, which is considered a great achievement!" As for the two counties of Jiuzhen and Cangwu, after returning to my king, it is not too late to delay it! ”

"Hey! Maybe. I seek to get Jiaozhou for the lord, but in fact, I have done my duty. If Bo Fu is still there, what if there are only five counties? However, the person in power today is no longer Bofu. And Liu Bei, the Son of Heaven, even sealed me as Jiaozhi Taishou, what does this mean? Don't you know? The rebels in Jiaozhou are also going to enter Beijing and be detained, how can I be allowed to be allowed by the king? Zhou Yu explained his situation in one sentence.

Yes! Zhou Yu's prestige, after this conquest, seems to have surpassed that of Wu Wang Sun Quan.

At this time, Zhou Yu accepted Liu Bei's canonization of Jiaozhi Taishou. How could it not make Sun Quan suspicious?

Someone here has something to say, didn't that Cheng Pu also accept the seal of the South China Sea Taishou?

It's different.

What is Cochin? This is the national capital of Wang Shixie in Hainan!

Zhou Yu's status in Eastern Wu was second only to Sun Quan, the king of Wu, once he accepted the title of the royal capital, imagine what Sun Quan would think?

In this era, I'm not afraid that you are capable, but I'm afraid that your boss will often think about you?!

He knows that you won't be able to rebel, but what he's afraid of is that you have the ability to rebel at any time if you want to. This is where your short life as a subordinate comes in.

Zhou Yu was a smart man, and one of the smartest people of this period.

Therefore, he hated Liu Bei and was angry with Zhuge Liang.

But he didn't have the time to hate them. Because he has to think about his own future.

That's how things are in the world, and that's the rhythm of death.

This was true of the Three Kingdoms, of later dynasties, and even of today's commercial empires.

It's not that you just do it well, you have to learn to master a degree.

If you exceed that, then you're not far from the end.

Smart people tend to grasp this degree very well.

He will take every opportunity to choose himself out of this circle.

It's just that Zhou Yu is such a person.

Although he was injured three times in a row by Zhuge Liang's strategy, and two of them vomited blood, this did not affect him to understand afterwards.

Therefore, he still put on that sick face in front of everyone, and he still looked terminally ill.

The next day, he arranged for Lu Su to escort Shixie and others to the prisoner car, and sent 1,000 elite soldiers to escort Jian Yong back to Kyoto.

Seeing Zhou Yu's performance, Jian Yong was very strange, and after saying goodbye to everyone very politely, he secretly muttered in his heart: Didn't Master Zuo Yushi say that Zhou Yu's illness would not be very serious? Why is it still so serious today, it doesn't seem to be pretended. If you pretend, your face shouldn't be so white!

Of course, with Jian Yong's IQ, how can he figure out what is going on?

Zhou Yu's story, Zhuge Liang guessed thoroughly.

Just as Zhou Yu didn't give up, he still sent people to Jiuzhen and Cangwu counties. The person who went brought back two secret letters and handed them to Zhou Yu.

It is Zhuge Liang's handwritten letter.

Two identical letters.

Zhuge Liang wrote: "Sun Zhongmou's heart is far greater than that of his brother and his father. However, the heavens descended on my lord, and he has ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and he is destined to be unable to achieve anything in his life. It has several counties in Jiangdong, and you can do it! Thou hast great prestige, and thy merits are greater. Liang persuaded his brother as a friend, if you don't go at this time, I'm afraid it's too late! ”

Zhuge Liang's trick is not poisonous!

Sun Quan went to Zhou Yu, like a broken arm!

However, Sun Quan did not think so.

Wu County Jianye City, Wu Wang's Mansion.

Sun Quan was wearing a python robe, sat on the throne, looked at the battle report sent from the front, and asked, "Does Gong Jin have any time to say when he will return?" ”

Standing below is the governor of the navy he personally mentioned - Lu Xun, Lu Boyan.

"My lord, the letter said that the Governor of Dadu had cracked Jiaozhi, captured Shixie and other rebels, and had sent Lord Lu Su to escort him into Beijing! As for when he will return, he doesn't say clearly! Lu Xun replied.

Sun Quan put down the letter in his hand, stood up, and said coldly: "Yes! His Majesty the Son of Heaven personally canonized him as the Taishou of Jiaozhi, how could he easily lead troops back? ”

"Lord, I'm afraid this matter is Zhuge Liang's divisive plan!" When Lu Xun heard this, his face changed drastically.

Sun Quan waved his hand, stared at Lu Xun's face, and asked with a hideous expression: "Bo Yan, now that the people of Jiangdong only hear about Zhou Gongjin, who knows me Sun Zhongmou?" This is my father and brother who have laid down the country?! ”

Looking at Sun Quan, who had become hideous in front of him, Lu Xun hurriedly lowered his head and clenched his fists: "The lord is angry, the minister heard that Gongjin was injured in front of the battle, and I am afraid it will be difficult to command the troops again, why not take advantage of this to cut off his military power?" ”

Hearing this, Sun Quan calmed down, helped Lu Xun's crumpled clothes, and said with a sigh of relief: "Lone is too excited, and he is not too careful." How did you know about Gong Jin's injury? ”

"News from the army major governor Cheng Advisor!"

"Excellent! You're doing a great job! Sun Quan nodded in praise.

At this time, Zhou Yu had already arranged for Cheng Pu and others to be stationed in Jiaozhou, leading the army on the way back to Jianye.

Zhou Yu's second son, Zhou Yin, guarded in front of Zhou Yu's carriage and asked in a low voice, "Father, is there really no room for maneuver?" He still didn't give up, because he didn't want to give up the glory and wealth in front of him!

Zhou Yu has a total of two sons, the eldest son Zhou Xun and the second son Zhou Yin.

The two sons have very different personalities. The eldest son, Zhou Xun, is talented and intelligent, and has the style of Zhou Yu; But the second son Zhou Yin is lazy and chases fame and fortune.

Hearing his younger brother say this, Zhou Xun said in the side: "Not really! My father was seriously ill, so naturally he could not continue to be an official in the royal capital, and he should go back to his hometown in Lujiang to recuperate for some time. I believe that the king can agree, as for you? If you get your aunt's recommendation, you can still keep your position! ”

Hearing his brother say this, Zhou Yin suddenly became happy, and asked Zhou Yu again: "Father, can the child go and ask his aunt for help?" ”

"Hey!" Zhou Yu in the car sighed and said helplessly, "If you want to, when you get to the city, you can go!" Somewhat, the king can give you a half-official position for the merit of his father's conquest for their father and their son! ”

Actually, Zhou Yu knew that Sun Quan would definitely retain Zhou Yin's official position!

Because he has given up his military power, then he has no threat to him. And leaving this lazy guy behind, it was easier for him to control.

To be able to become a monarch, the heart of control is absolute possession of power.

And those who have shortcomings are the ones who can absolutely control it. So what they need are those who have shortcomings, not those who are arrogant.

Arriving at the royal capital Jianye, Zhou Yu did not return to the mansion, but took his eldest son Zhou Xun straight to the palace to resume his life.

As Zhou Yu expected, Sun Quan was already very dissatisfied with him in his words.

Fortunately, he had already prepared and submitted his resignation.

Holding Zhou Yu's resignation, Sun Quan looked at him with interest and asked, "Is Qing really hurt so badly?" ”

"The king, because the ministers didn't check for a while, they fell in love with Zhuge Kongming's way. Caused by a moment of anger and blood, how can the minister bear it three times in a row? I hope that the king will give him permission! Zhou Yu said, another rapid, heart-rending cough, and even coughed up blood again.

"Ahh Quick, call the doctor. Sun Quan was suddenly startled and hurriedly summoned the imperial doctor.

……

After some tossing, Sun Quan got his wish and took back Zhou Yu's weapon; And Zhou Yu also returned to his hometown in Lujiang under the escort of his son Zhou Xun, and also received a large number of rewards.

The military power of Eastern Wu fell back into the hands of Sun Quan, the king of Wu. He divided the army into two parts, one was in charge of Lu Xun, who was the governor of the army; One is the newly promoted general Lu Meng, who is the governor of the army. And the veteran general Cheng Pu was arranged by him to vacate his position.
