The noisy banquet hall was completely quiet because of Sun Ce's words, and of course the envoys of the Sun family had already known about it, so they all responded calmly, silently looking at the majestic body sitting on the top. Although Jingzhou Wenchen was a little stunned, he also reacted quickly, and after a little calculation, he showed joy, just because this was a good thing with all benefits and no harm. can not only add a wife for their father-in-law, but also get strong support, in their eyes, this is a good thing.

Seeing that Wang Xu was silent in the face of such a good thing, everyone was very anxious, if it weren't for the atmosphere at the moment, I am afraid that one by one would have rushed to play and persuaded them to agree quickly. But this decision really can't be made for Wang Xu, no matter what, at least he must pass Xu Shu's level first.

As he was silent for a long time, Sun Ce's face gradually showed a suspicious look, obviously dissatisfied, and Sun Jian's secret confession when he was leaving sounded in his heart.

"Ce'er, my grandson family seems to be powerful now, but if the shape changes extremely quickly today, the princes of all parties are eyeing each other, and they are actually in danger. Yuan Shu on the north side of the Yangtze River has annihilated Zheng Bao and other rebel main forces, the suppression of bandits in the Huainan region is nearing the end, and its account is full of soldiers, although it was defeated by Cao Cao a few years ago, but the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, it is sitting on the rich land of Huainan, and there are natural danger barriers in the north and south, which must be guarded against.

Moreover, the relationship between him and Xuzhou Tao Qian is irreversible, and it is extremely difficult to differentiate. Even if the provocation is successful, but after several battles between Xuzhou and Cao Cao, it is still difficult to protect himself, how can he be contained? Therefore, he is the person who has the least worries, and he is afraid of Cao Cao, so if he is stable, he will definitely desire to take the land of Jiangdong. Now that Liu Miao can't attack for a long time, I am most afraid that he will unite with Liu Xuan, and we will be struggling at that time! And the north is a melee. They can't count on it. Only Wang Xu of Jingzhou can deepen his friendship. lest he also plot against my Jiangdong. However, Wang Xu is very smart, he knows that if he wants to take Jiangdong, even if he Jingzhou is strong now, he definitely doesn't want to take it lightly. My grandson's family is deeply rooted here, and even if it loses, it will outweigh its losses, so there is no need to worry too much about it for the time being.

This time, I married Shang Xiang to him, one is to deepen the relationship between the two families and become lips and teeth. The second is to show it clear proof of recognition of its hegemony. After all, my Sun Jian's beloved daughter is not something that anyone can marry as a side room. The third is to test his attitude and conclude this family business, as long as we don't provoke, Shang Xiang has absolutely no intention of fighting with my grandson family within a few years of marriage, Wang Xu is determined to be in the world, regards the people's heart and fame as the top priority, and will not go against the grain. ”

When he said this, Sun Jian's eyes showed essence, and he was silent for a long time before he said word by word: "If he refuses to get married, it is enough to prove Wang Xu's heart." Most importantly. I have some doubts about the origin of Jiang Wu in Liu Xuan's office, because according to the information in my hands. No one in this man's hometown had ever heard of him. And his whereabouts are secretive, and he lives in a shallow way, except for Liu Xuan, it is difficult for others to see him, and he never appears in public. What's more, I was lurking on Liu Xuan's side, and I had already vaguely discovered that there was something wrong with this Jiang Wu. ”

Sun Ce was extremely surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask, "Father suspects that this person is related to Wang Xu?" ”

"Hmm!" Sun Jian nodded, narrowed his eyes, and the light flickered. "But I'm not sure, it's possible that Yuan Shu is also possible, and of course it may indeed be a personal behavior, it's just that he has a strange personality. But everything has to be prevented, so if Wang Xu is willing to marry this time, it means that he really has no intention of plotting Jiangdong in recent years, then this person must have nothing to do with him, after all, there is no plot, why did he go to great lengths to obstruct me from succeeding? ”

Sun Jian thought badly about this, of course he didn't think that Wang Xu was a person of later generations, although he didn't have the intention of plotting Jiangdong at present, but he was afraid that he was very afraid, and he tried his best to obstruct it, of course, he was not afraid of him, but Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Zhou Yu and countless other capable people associated with him.

After saying this, Sun Jian sighed, and slowly stretched out his strong and powerful palm and patted Sun Ce's shoulder: "Ce'er! At the beginning, I thought that the Han family could prosper, and the Sun family only needed to keep the state and county safe and do their best. But now it seems that the princes everywhere have already risen to dissent, and it is really difficult to ascend to the sky! Now, regardless of the rise and fall of the Han family, my grandson family must also strive for a broad foothold, and a strong body is. In fact, from this point of view, I am not as good as Wang Xu, he sees farther than me and does it earlier than me, otherwise why would there be today's situation! ”

When the words fell, Sun Jian, Sun Ce, father and son looked at each other speechlessly, and after being silent for a long time, Sun Jian waved his hand and smiled: "Okay, it's useless to talk more, Ce'er must pay attention to safety on this trip, and also bring Wang Xu's attitude back, so that my Sun family can be prepared." ”

"The child shall live up to the father's hope." The firm voice echoed in Sun Jian's study......

Slowly recovering from the memories, Sun Ce's eyes became extremely sharp, quietly watching Wang Xu's every move, and as time went by, the atmosphere in the hall became more and more awkward. Seeing this, Zhou Zhi and Zhang Jing, who understood Wang Xu's heart very well, glanced at each other, and immediately snorted and jumped out: "This is a great thing, but after all, this matter is a matter of importance, I think the lord also needs to think carefully, not to mention having a meeting with his parents and wife's prophet!" ”

"Ahh Wang Xu, who was struggling, suddenly heard these words, breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Zhou Zhi gratefully, and said with a smile: "Zhou Zhi's words are extremely true, the parents at home are alive, and they must report it first." ”

Wang Xu's words can be regarded as reducing the embarrassment in the hall, and the civil and military ministers are also relieved, and the Jiangdong envoys led by Sun Ce have shown smiles, in this era of absolute filial piety, this is an excuse for delay that no one can refute.

Sun Ce immediately saluted respectfully: "Then wait for my uncle's decision." ”

Soon, with the help of the civil and military gags, the matter was finally put aside for the time being, and the atmosphere became active again, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

When the banquet dispersed, Wang Xu, who was worried, didn't have the heart to discuss with any of his subordinates, so he immediately rushed back to the backyard of the general's mansion and went straight to the main courtyard to find Xu Shu. But I didn't expect to see Diao Chan, Cai Yan, and Zhao Yu also gathered together, talking and laughing about something. The most important thing is that the three spy commanders Shan Huai, Liang Rui, and Ling Wanqing are still accompanying each other, which is really something that has never happened before.

"Husband is back!" As soon as the door opened, Diao Chan and Cai Yan heard the sound and immediately got up happily to greet each other.

"Huh! What do you do together? So lively? Wang Xu replied casually. I don't wait for them to reply. He had already turned his head to look at the three Spy Commanders. "You're there too. Is there a hurry? ”

"Hmm!" The three nodded in unison.

The corners of Xu Shu's mouth showed a slight smile, and she didn't interject in a hurry, but turned to Diao Chan, Cai Yan, and Zhao Yu: "A few sisters, can you go get something to eat?" It is estimated that my husband is also patronizing and drinking. ”

Zhao Yu, Diao Chan and Cai Yan all listened to Xu Shu's words, and walked out of the room with a smile in response.

As the third daughter left, Xu Shu closed the door, and then looked over meaningfully, and said with a smile: "The three of them have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

"What is so urgent?" Wang Xu was puzzled.

"Let's tell you about it!" said. Xu Shu looked at the three commanders of the spy shadow.

Ling Wanqing and Liang Rui were silent, and Shan Huai took the lead in speaking: "Back to the lord, Guo Jia appeared, and brought a message with the token of life spy shadow given by the lord." ”

"Guo Jia!" With an exclamation, Wang Xu vaguely felt that something was wrong, Guo Jia was lurking beside Liu Xuan, if there was no major incident, it would never be possible to contact the spy. "What's the message?"

"Six words, game or be cracked!" Shan Huai replied calmly.

"So fast!" Although it is not explicitly stated, the agreed riddle is only a possible expression. But Wang Xu was still surprised. I really didn't expect it to be okay in just a few months, and I thought it would be delayed for at least a year or two. Let Liu Miao and Sun Jian lose both, and when they can't hide it, they will let Liu Jian resist by himself for a year or two, and everything will be enough.

However, Guo Jia's life is absolutely important, since there is already an exposed danger, it is a good result that Guo Jia can no longer be allowed to take risks, and it is a good result to help Liu Jian successfully resist a large-scale attack by Sun Jian, so that the two sides suffer huge losses. Now that Sun Jian wants to launch another all-out attack, it will take several months to prepare, and Liu Jian's own advisers and ministers should delay the joint efforts for another year and a half.

Knowing that the matter was critical, Wang Xu quickly calmed down and said calmly: "In addition to the dead soldiers who followed Guo Jia to protect his safety, does anyone know that it is Guo Jia?" ”

"Nope!" Shan Huai, Ling Wanqing, and Liang Rui all shook their heads.

"That's good!" Wang Xu's heart relaxed a little, and then gave an order. "Ling Wanqing, you immediately send a dead soldier to replace Guo Jia, pay attention to obey Guo Jia's command."

"Liang Rui, you send someone to answer and be responsible for escorting Guo Jia to Hebei immediately, and you must ensure Guo Jia's safety. At the same time, the spy entourage wants to assist Guo Jia in building momentum in the north and arranging a story. The gist of it is: he actually went to Hebei for a long time, and the original purpose was to fake his death in order to confuse Cao Cao last autumn, intending to instigate Yuan Shao to help and solve the danger of Jingzhou. Anyway, you can make up the story, as long as it makes sense, it's better to really catch a few more robbers to coerce them into witnesses. ”

"Guo Jia has already discussed with me at the beginning, so he will cooperate with you in the details. Then he will go to meet Yuan Shao, discuss the alliance with him, and inadvertently tell his own experience, you spy entourage people should also cooperate, to avoid people who have a heart to investigate, they will gang, at that time, Ling Wanqing's side of the dead soldier who replaced Guo Jia will appear at the same time, and the matter can be revealed. ”

"But that dead soldier definitely can't hide it for long, although Guo Junshi rarely sees people on weekdays, but that Liu Miao has seen it. No matter what method is used, after a long time, it will eventually be a goof. Ling Wanqing didn't react for a while, and asked a little strangely.

Wang Xu rolled his eyes and said a little funny: "I just need you to hide and not be recognized for a while, as for how to make him never recognizable, it's not easy?" How simple is it for a dead man to be scratched on his face? Do you, the Shadow Commander, still need me to teach you? As for the murderer, he also committed suicide at the same time, what do you think? You discuss the specific matters with Guo Jia, and he will tell you how to break up the people sent by Liu Xuan to protect him. It is indeed difficult to assassinate a famous minister and a good general, but it is not easy to kill yourself? ”

Being sarcastically ridiculed by Wang Xu, Ling Wanqing was instantly embarrassed, and seemed to be a little infallible, but it made Shan Huai and Liang Rui next to him couldn't help but smile.

Wang Xu shook his head, waved his hand and said, "Okay, go and do it!" The sooner this happens, the better, I don't want Guo Jia to be in any danger! ”

"No!"

"By the way, one more point!" As soon as the three of them stepped out of the room, Wang Xu suddenly spoke. "If those who die on behalf of others are the best corpses, it is not easy for the Spy Shadow Department, if you can not sacrifice, don't sacrifice, I believe you can weigh and arrange it!"
