The ensuing negotiations seemed to have gone much smoother, with both sides taking a big step towards their respective goals and reaching a preliminary consensus. However, the cumbersome details also made this marathon-like negotiation continue for a few more days, and the two sides are still fighting over trivial matters, and it is not suitable to be happy, and in order to maximize their own interests, the two sides can be said to rack their brains and use all their scheming,-for-tat, and not give up an inch of land.

In the end, after the timetable for the withdrawal of the Jing army and the timetable for the transfer of Xuzhou were finalized, the dust finally settled on this arduous negotiation. Of course, at the same time, the wedding date of Liu Ze and Sun Shangxiang was finalized.

At the negotiation table, Chen Deng proposed that since King Jing took out two counties as a dowry, should the Eastern Wu side also show its sincerity and take out a piece of land as a dowry for the county lord.

Chen Deng's words made the atmosphere on the spot suddenly tense, the Soochow side had already lost a lot of money in this negotiation of losing power and humiliating the country, and Chen Deng had to make inches of progress, and wanted to extort and extort again, but he could not let the Jiangdong envoys accept it no matter what. However, Chen Deng's final request was nothing more than a remote mountain col two hundred miles east of Poyang County, Yuzhang County, with a radius of no more than 100 miles, poor mountains and bad waters, and few people lived there except for a few Shanyue people.

This made the Jiangdong envoys puzzled, this place is neither a military stronghold, nor an economic town, what is Liu Ze's intention to ask for it so forcibly? Zhou Yu was puzzled, but he didn't deal with Liu Ze once or twice, since Liu Ze wanted this place, he definitely had a plan, but Zhou Yu just broke his head and saw through the map, and he couldn't think of Liu Ze's real plan.

In fact, it is no wonder that Zhou Yu was a wild place in the Three Kingdoms era, and it didn't even have a name, but it was very famous in later generations. It is called Jingdezhen and is known as the porcelain capital of China. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Liu Ze closed the Quyang porcelain kiln, and most of the potters were placed in Mangdang Mountain, and later moved to Xiapi, where there was no good kaolin. Naturally, the best porcelain can not be fired, in Xuzhou, although there is a porcelain kiln, but also can only fire some civilian porcelain, for these top craftsmen, it is simply a waste of resources. With the capture of Jiaozhou and the acquisition of the southern outlet to the sea, it has long been within Liu Ze's plan to open up the Maritime Silk Road, firing high-quality blue and white porcelain. It was already an imminent matter, Liu Ze naturally thought of Jingdezhen, which was well-known in later generations, but although Jingdezhen was still a poor mountain and bad water at this time, it was east of Ganshui, in the hinterland of Dongwu, how to willingly let Dongwu give up this land, Liu Ze still thought about it a while. In the end, he thought of a way to ask for a dowry and take the land from Soochow.

Zhou Yu really didn't understand the value of this land. Liu Fang insisted again and again that this place had to be the place. After some discussion with Lu Su, Zhou Yu finally handed over the land as Sun Shangxiang's dowry, but in the supplementary agreement between the two parties, it was stipulated that Liu Fang was not allowed to station troops on this land, and could only enter and exit the area by water through Guò Poshui, and was not allowed to take land routes. Zhou Yu handled the matter very carefully. In a deserted mountainous area, as long as the Jing army is not allowed to be stationed here, there must be no worries, and as for Liu Ze's true intention to ask for this land, it will only be known in the future.

After the end of the negotiations. The official text of the treaty was also released, Zhuge Liang on behalf of Liu Ze, Zhou Yu on behalf of Sun Quan, signed the treaty, and stamped the seals of King Liu Ze and Marquis of Wu Sun Quan, and the treaty officially entered into force. Because the signing place of the two sides is at the mouth of the Qinhuai River, it is known as the "Jingwu Qinhuai Treaty" in history.

When the first rays of sunlight in the early morning shone on the head of Jianye City, the soldiers and civilians of Jianye City were pleasantly surprised to find that the Jingjun camp that was originally besieged outside Jianye City was gone, the fierce and vigorous Zhu ironclad cavalry in the south of the city was gone, and the warships with gloomy muzzles moored on the Qinhuai River were also nowhere to be seen, and the haze of war that was suppressed in the hearts of the soldiers and civilians in Jiangdong finally disappeared.

Wuhou Mansion is even more colorful, clothed in red and green, a festive and peaceful scene.

Today is the big day for the county lord Sun Shangxiang to go out of the cabinet, Sun Quan as a prince, his sister is married, the etiquette can not be shabby, extremely luxurious, Wu Guotai only has such a daughter, love it very much, and now marry Jingzhou, Wu Guotai cried so much that he was sick and intestines, and he was reluctant to let go for a long time holding Sun Shangxiang, who was dressed in pure clothes and newcomer clothes. Sun Shangxiang has never left her mother's side when she was a child, this marriage is far away, and I don't know when we will see each other again, Sun Shangxiang also cried like a tearful child.

Chang Nei Sun Ce's wife Da Qiao, Zhou Yu's wife Xiao Qiao, Sun Quan's wives Xie, Xu, and Bu were all accompanied by the left and right, and they comforted each other.

Sun Quan and Zhou Yu stood side by side, and the crisis of Jianye was solved smoothly, which made Sun Quan feel good and refreshed, but compared to Zhou Yu's face was much gloomy, his eyes were gloomy and unhappy.

"Gongjin, today is Xiang'er's big day, you, a big matchmaker and a great hero of Jiangdong's retreat, should be happy, why are you depressed?" Sun Quan noticed Zhou Yu's gloomy expression and asked.

Zhou Yu's gaze quickly glanced at the hall, his wife Xiao Qiao turned his back to him, Zhou Yu's originally gloomy eyes suddenly became weird, flashing with a terrifying light, hearing Sun Quan ask him, he reluctantly came back to his senses, his expression withered again, and he sighed faintly: "The covenant of humiliation of the alliance under the city, how can you be happy?" ”

Sun Quan was also infected by his sad feelings, and sighed and said: "No matter what, Gong Jin can get the two counties of Xuzhou and Pi Guangling this time, and Gong Jin is indispensable. It's not terrible to lose the battle, it's terrible to lose the morale and military spirit of our Jiangdong, Gong Jin, this time you have to go to Xuzhou in person, handle the handover of the city with Liu Ze, and at the same time deploy the defense of Xiapi, the burden on your shoulders is not light! ”

Zhou Yu did not refuse, as the governor of Jiangdong, he naturally wanted to stick to the first front. "Please rest assured, Yu is the liver and brain, and he will never give up!"

Sun Quan patted him on the shoulder and said: "Gong Jin remember, if Xia Pi Guangling can be defended, it must be guarded, and if it can't be held, it must not be fought hard, and Jiangdong will not be able to leave Gong Jin no matter what." ”

Zhou Yu's heart was awe-inspiring, and he bowed his hand to thank him.

At this time, the attendant said to Sun Quan on the side: "Qiqi Wuhou, the auspicious time has arrived, please ask the county lord to come up." ”

So Sun Quan stepped forward, persuaded his mother to leave, Sun Quan personally hugged his sister, helped her to the phoenix, the drums sounded in unison, the sheng bamboo silk music, in the midst of the noise, Sun Shangxiang's phoenix ran out of Jianye City, came to the ferry by the Yangtze River. Sun Quan prepared a rich dowry for his sister, gold, silver and jewelry, innumerable, just the maid and maid ring to marry, there were hundreds of people. These marrying maids all carry swords and swords, and they are all handmaidens by Sun Shangxiang's side on weekdays.

The Yangwei was moored at the ferry, and this time its task was to welcome the family, dressed in red and colored, and it was also renovated. Liu Ze stood on the side of the boat, watching the maids gather around Sun Shangxiang, who was dressed in new clothes, to get on the boat.

This is the second meeting between Liu Ze and Sun Shangxiang, thinking that a few days ago, Sun Shangxiang, who was a disguised dancer and was about to assassinate herself, actually became her own bride, Liu Ze couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this fate is sometimes so wonderful.

Liu Ze stretched out his hand and pulled Sun Shangxiang onto the boat. Sun Shangxiang smiled and took Liu Ze's hand, at this time, she had no hidden murderous aura when she boarded the ship a few days ago, she was an assassin at that time, and today, she played the role of a bride, she was also difficult to adapt to her identity change so quickly, but she knew that since she had made a choice, she would go on this road without regrets.

Yangwei sailed through the waves, went against the current, and slowly drove towards the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, but the rolling river water flowed inexorably to the east......
