"Liu Bei has passed away, and the news from Luoyang says that Cao Pi is also terminally ill, and the crown prince Cao Rui has become a director of the dynasty, and it seems that he has not much to live, and I am really lonely." Sun Ce scooped up a glass of wine and said seemingly unintentionally.

When Qiao Ren hurried back to Jianye, the dust had already settled, although Qiao Ren didn't understand why Sun Quan would recommend Sun Song and Zhang Wen as the chief and deputy envoys to Shu Han, but this arrangement was still reasonable in Qiao Ren's mind. Sun Song didn't say it, but now he is also a miscellaneous general; Zhang Wen also sent an envoy to Shu in his previous life, of course, Qiao Ren also told him not to mention those strange questions, so as not to be embarrassed.

However, after Qiao Ren arrived, Sun Ce left him for dinner regardless of it, and called His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to accompany him, saying that it was a family banquet. Speaking of such words between the banquets, Qiao Ren would inevitably think of what Jiang Jibai said to Qiao Ren.

"Haha, brother is not alone." Even if it is a family banquet, the title cannot be formal.

Sun Ce raised his head and stared at Qiao Ren like a torch: "Liu Bei is still a lot older." Cao Pi seems to be a little smaller than Ziyan, right? ”

"Really?" Qiao Ren pinched his fingers and counted it, it seemed that he was born in the spring of 183 and was forty and forty this year, while Cao Pi was born in the winter of 187, and now he is only less than forty. "Wei Wu has a long life, but he didn't expect Zihuan to die young."

"Some people persuaded me to take advantage of the new mourning of Wei to lead the army to the Northern Expedition in order to plot the world." Sun Ce pinched the wine bottle in his right hand and kept playing with it, "But I refused." ”

Qiao Ren was puzzled, isn't this a good time? "Why?"

"Haha, Ziyan and Emperor Wei are worldly friends, Emperor Wei died, how can I take advantage of the danger of others?" Sun Ce said a ridiculous reason nonchalantly.

Sun Shao on the side listened to it, and Qiao Ren always felt that Sun Ce had something to say recently, so he could only laugh and accompany the wine. However, Sun Ce did not stop and continued:

"How's the old man doing?"

Since the beginning of winter last year, Qiao Guolao's body has aged at an extremely fast rate, and because Zhang Ji has passed away, although the imperial doctor Ling Huang Xu has superb medical skills, he is powerless, as for Yu Ji, Zuo Ci and others, it is difficult to find a fairy trail. So according to Huang Xu's words, Qiao Guolao will find it difficult to last until next summer.

"There is no skill to return to heaven, and the younger brother can only do his filial piety."

Sun Ce lowered his head and was silent, only to raise his head again after half a sound. "I am also the son-in-law of the old man, don't let the queen go home to save her relatives! Shao'er, you also go to your grandfather to fulfill your filial piety. ”

"Wow!!"

"Your Majesty!!" Qiao Ren's voice changed, "I'm afraid that my brother will be entangled in housework in the past few months, and Zitong can still help me deal with political affairs and the affairs of the Taiwei Mansion, but if I manage the four armies again, I will have no skills." Therefore, the younger brother implored His Majesty to appoint another person to supervise the four armies. ”

"Doesn't the Fourth Army have a Grand General of the Overseer? Why do we need another person? Sun Shao asked puzzled.

"Ziyu is only the director of military discipline, not a direct commander." Qiao Ren explained, and then turned to Sun Ce and said, "According to the order of the general without leading the army, there should be a general of the army, and he should command the four armies. ”

"You mean, Jiabu Qi is the general of the army and the governor of the fourth army?" After speaking, he didn't wait for Qiao Ren to speak, and said to himself: "It is true that the merits of the step can get the position of a general of the army, but it is not impossible to add the authority of a governor to Ziyu. ”

Above the four armies, there are positions such as the general of the overseer, the left and right military divisions, and the left and right guards, and the functions of commanding the generals, supervising military discipline and promoting military generals, among which the latter four are responsible for the leading general and the general of the overseer at the same time. If Zhuge Jin is given the authority to lead the four armies, it is equivalent to combining the leading general and the overseer general into one, and his power is too great.

"This?!"

"Not suitable! I don't think it's appropriate! Before Qiao Ren could answer, Sun Ce started to take care of himself again. Then add Bu Qi as the general of the army, and lead the four armies. Ziyan said that in the past few months, you can get things done at home with peace of mind. ”

"Whoa!" Qiao Ren is still very glad that Sun Ce himself has said everything, Bu Qi and Zhuge Jin are his own wife and brother and the other is his own children and in-laws, so it's not easy to say that he is not suitable! If Qiao Ren personally said that Zhuge Jin led the four armies with too much power, wouldn't this offend people?????????????????????????????????????????

Outside the gate of the palace city, the leading lieutenant on duty, Chen Xiu, accompanied Jia Hua to talk, Jia Hua originally with his identity and qualifications could find a room in the front hall of the palace to squint and wait, but he was cautious and thoughtful, and never fell into the hands of others. Therefore, whenever Qiao Ren entered the palace for a banquet, Jia Hua drank tea and played farts with the people of the fifth lieutenant on duty at the palace gate.

"Uncle Jia." Chen Xiu is not a young official, he is quite tall, but because he trained under Jia Hua in his early years, even if Jia Hua's official position is lower now, he has maintained the respect he deserves, and when it comes to Qiao Ren's personal guard generals, no one has to give three points of thin face. "I heard that the Metropolitan Governor is seriously ill, but there is such a thing."

When it comes to intelligence, the Taiwei Mansion is no worse than the Zhonglang General with five senses, especially this kind of domestic general's matter, and they have to report to the Taiwei Mansion when they are sick.

"Yes! Brother Lu, he is not too young, when he used to protect His Majesty with his old husband, he often charged into battle, and he suffered a lot of injuries on his body, and he suffered when he was old. Jia Hua is still quite nostalgic for those old times.

Chen Xiu then handed over another plate of side dishes, and asked Jia Hua with a wink, "Then does my father have a chance to move it!" ”

Lu Meng is seriously ill and either dies directly, or he has to go back to Jianye for treatment, and if he is well treated, he may not be able to return to the front line. And although Chen Xiu's father Chen Wu is the same age as Lu Meng, his health is still much better, and sure enough, according to the historical trajectory, people who do not die will always be in better health.

Once Lu Meng is transferred back to Jianye, it is a sure thing for Lu Xun to become the governor of the capital, and the candidate for this deputy governor is debatable. Zhu Ran, Chen Wu, Pan Zhang, and Sun Yu all have a chance, but as for Zhou Shao (Zhou Taizi), Sun Huan, Zhou Xun, and George, these are all small characters who are not possible. Then it is very likely that the candidate for deputy governor was produced among the first four people, and of course it is not ruled out that Jianye sent a deputy governor and transferred one from Huainan with the possible surname. However, there are few generals in Jianye, and the surnames sent may not be large. As for Huainan Sun Shao, Zhu Huan, and Xu Sheng, they all have the ability, but Dai Gang is reluctant.

"The Metropolitan Governor is Zhu Ran, Zhu Yifeng." Of course, Jia Hua knew what Chen Xiu was planning, but Chen Wu was also his elder brother, of course he knew that Chen Wu was a good hand at fighting, but as a governor, he was not as good as Zhou Tai.

"I see, is Wen Ao still used to it in the Taiwei Mansion?" Chen Xiu's voice changed, and then it was pulled to his younger brother Chen Biao, who is now a military adviser in the Taiwei Mansion, studying under Jiang Ji, who joined the army and sacrificed wine.

"Well???

Before Jia Hua could hear anything, he saw that Qiao Ren was accompanied by Sun Shao in addition to the palace gate, and when he saw this, he hurriedly pulled Chen Xiu to greet him.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the King"

"No courtesy. Uncle, the child was sent here. "There is a reason for Sun Shao to call his uncle instead of his uncle, this is Qiao Ren's order, his uncle is too much of a relative, and his uncle is Princess Shang belongs to the royal family, the concept is very different.

Seeing off Sun Shao, Jia Hua also said goodbye to Chen Xiu and Qiao Ren and went home.

"Zi Xia, this is the first time that I have a feeling of facing a king when I face Your Majesty?????????????????????????????????????????."

Lin Ji's bedroom, Lin Ji, who was ** all over her body, was lying on Sun Ce's chest with disgust, and a pair of skillful hands kept teasing Sun Ce's ???? Whiskers. "Beauty, this word is still trustworthy, don't you think this is handing over the military power?"

"Your Majesty, Bu Qi is Uncle Qiao's brother-in-law, what is the difference between him in charge of the military and Uncle Qiao."

"Haha!" Sun Ce's fingers gently scraped Lin Ji's nose, and said with a smile: "Little fool, Ziyan is not my brother-in-law, and he is still my brother-in-law, and there is no difference between his military power and my own control." (To be continued.) )
