Sun Quan intends to expand the territory, Jingzhou does not need to worry, Yuezhou also belongs to Wang Baoyu, his eyes have been locked on Heqi, as long as he breaks through here, it will open a way for the attack on Xudu. Of course, at this time, Sun Quan didn't want to fight Cao Pi yet, but only wanted to use Heqi as a base to bypass Jingzhou to fight Chengdu, which he thought was already empty.

Zhang Liao held on to Heqi for many years, repeatedly defeated Sun Quan's attacks, and even took away the Lujiang River when he was dying.

Prime Minister Sun Shao was sent back to his home by Sun Quan because of the joint letter asking for Jingzhou, and he was depressed, and soon fell seriously ill and died at home in less than two months.

Sun Quan felt sorry for Sun Shao, and often visited him when he was seriously ill, Sun Shao still stubbornly reminded Sun Quan that he must be more wary of Wang Baoyu.

Sun Quan was very helpless, but he also sincerely said that he had never relaxed his vigilance against anyone, and he didn't just value the love of worship with Wang Baoyu. At this time, it is not appropriate to provoke Wang Baoyu, but also to wait for the opportunity, he is bound to win the land of Jingzhou.

Sun Shao felt a little relieved at this time, during which Sun Quan mentioned that he wanted to attack Heqi again, Sun Shao seemed very happy, and felt that Sun Quan was asking him for advice on everything, which showed that he still had weight in his mind.

Sun Shao finally came up with an idea, it is difficult to attack Hehuai, it is better to unite with Gongsun Yuan, who has been hiding for a long time, to take Heqi, and then destroy Liaodong.

Sun Quan asked Gongsun Yuan if he was credible, but Sun Shao's condition worsened, and he began to get confused as he spoke, and he even forgot who Gongsun Yuan was, and he couldn't remember it for a long time.

After Sun Shao's death, Gu Yong took over the post of prime minister and began his nineteen-year glorious career as prime minister. Regarding the joint attack on Gongsun Yuan to attack Heqi, Gu Yong clearly expressed his opposition, on the grounds that Gongsun Yuan was swaying and vacillating, and could only be used, but it was not enough to jointly do big things.

Therefore, in Jian Yong's view, uniting Gongsun Yuan is tantamount to gambling, how can national affairs be used for gambling?

Sun Quan weighed it again and again, and did not listen to Gu Yong's words, Zhuge Liang won battles in the south one after another, and he had to seize Heqi before he returned, otherwise the army would return to the dynasty, and there would be no need to think about these things.

Therefore, Sun Quan still sent envoys with a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, and made a detour from the sea to Liaodong to see Gongsun Yuan, hoping that he could raise troops to assist in Hexi, and promised to divide the territory equally once he won.

Ten chests of treasures, dazzling to see, and there is also the temptation of dividing the territory equally, Gongsun Yuan was really moved, rewarded and warmly entertained, and soon made a decision to cooperate with Sun Quan, which is called a pleasure.

Gongsun Yuan also wrote a letter himself, expressing his attitude and asking the messenger to bring it back to the messenger. However, at this moment, Gongsun Yuan heard the news that Cao Pi was coming.

Could it be that Cao Pi got the news and wanted to exterminate himself in advance? Gongsun Yuan was a little scared, Cao Pi was about to arrive, and it was too late to unite with Sun Quan at the moment, and finally made something that made Sun Quan very disappointed and extremely angry.

Gongsun Yuan mercilessly killed the envoys sent by Sun Quan, of course all the gold and silver treasures were accepted, and his letter was also burned to ashes, and finally even the ashes were washed away with water, and there was no further evidence.

Subsequently, Gongsun Yuan hurriedly sent a letter to Cao Pi, exposing Sun Quan's conspiracy and denouncing the blue-eyed villain, so as to clear his suspicion.

Cao Pi, who was on the way back, received the letter, couldn't help laughing, was in a good mood, praised Gongsun Yuan's loyalty, and sent someone to give him a lot of rewards afterwards.

Hearing that Cao Pi led the crowd to leave, Gongsun Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that he was very shrewd, and he successfully resolved a crisis with a little trick, and reaped the benefits at both ends. With these jewels, a lifetime of glory and wealth is embraced, and it can also be used to recruit troops and horses, cooperate with no one, and establish himself as a king.

The envoy was killed, the treasure was taken away, Sun Quan lost face, and Cheng Dù, who was so annoyed and ashamed, cursed Gongsun Yuan. Sun Quan immediately ordered the troops and horses to be cleaned up, ready to attack Heqi, and when Heqi was defeated, he sent a team north to destroy Gongsun Yuan, who did not know how to lift.

Sun Quan was intensively planning a new battle of Hexi, Cao Pi of course would not sit idly by, he sent a letter to Sima Yi, asking him to lead an army of 100,000 and the right general Xu Huang to garrison Hehuai and prepare to meet the Wu army.

"Alas, I have been feeling tired and heavy in my limbs lately, as if my destiny was not coming." Cao Pi, who was sitting on the dragon chariot, suddenly sighed and said.

"Holy Blessing Qitian, this is a lot of concern!" Liu Ye, who was accompanying him, hurriedly complimented.

"I remember in a trance that when I was young, a scholar once said that my life expectancy was no more than forty." Cao Pi said.

"This man is a fool of himself, and he deserves a thousand cuts." Liu Ye said.

"It really deserves to be killed." Cao Pi recalled it carefully and sighed: "Alas, I don't even remember whether I killed this person, and I don't even remember his name, why have I been so confused recently." ”

"When I return to Xudu, the minister will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly." Liu Ye took the initiative to ask for help.

Cao Pi didn't speak, looked at a small city not far ahead, and asked, "Where is this place?" ”

"Back to the saint, it is Yongqiu!"

"My brother Zhi'er should be here, send the message quickly, I want to see him." Cao Pi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly ordered.

Cao Zhi was here, when he heard the death of his second brother Cao Zhang, he decided that Cao Pi had killed the second brother, and he was very panicked in his heart, so he took the initiative to resign from the throne and was willing to be a taishou.

Cao Pi suffered a defeat at Wang Baoyu, and his mood was already very depressed, and he also knew Cao Zhi's thoughts, so he felt very cold, so he casually agreed and let Cao Zhi take the position of Yongqiu Taishou.

Cao Zhi came here just to avoid disaster, and he had no intention of managing the affairs of a county, and made a good city depressed in popularity, economically backward, and the population was decreasing year by year, while he himself was still drunk every day and untidy.

"Taishou, the Holy Emperor is here in person, please welcome him quickly." An official ran in anxiously.

"Big brother is here, alas! I couldn't get through it. Cao Zhi put down his wine glass, sighed, tidied up his clothes, led a group of officials, and hurriedly walked out of the city gate.

The colorful flags in front of him, the Jinluo canopy, seeing Cao Pi so honored, Cao Zhi's eyes moistened, he is also Cao Cao's child, one is high, the supreme glory, the other lives in a small city, living in a sloppy life, God is unfair, how can this gap be so big.

Cao Zhi was not allowed to be sad, Cao Pi was wearing a dragon robe and a crown of beads, and walked down slowly from the dragon chariot, Cao Zhi hurriedly ran over, kowtowed, and said: "The minister Cao Zijian greets the arrival of the saint!" ”
