Chapter 077: Census
These days, the four gates of Chaisan City are under martial law, and the streets are empty except for the soldiers who come and go to patrol. Of course, the people in the city don't know what is going on! As the political center of the Jiangdong Group, since the Sun Group established Chaisang, except for the year when Sun Ce was assassinated, there was a martial law for a month, and there has really been no such scene in more than ten years.
Some knowledgeable old people said that this should have something to do with the imperial army's southern expedition. However, more rumors say that there are assassins who want to assassinate Sun Quan, which is why they will mobilize the whole city to arrest the assassins. Up to this time, the news that Zhuge father and son had come to Jiangdong was only known to a small number of high-ranking officials in Jiangdong. Sun Quan did not want this secret to be known to the outside world before the cooperation agreement between Sun and Liu was reached. However, I don't want to return to hope, and it is not particularly difficult for the all-pervasive meticulous workers sent by the powerful forces of the various factions with great powers to obtain this news. That's why there were two previous assassination activities. Although these two assassination activities have been fully prepared, they have also had a relatively comprehensive understanding of the attendants and guards around Zhuge father and son. But what they never dreamed of was that Zhuge Father's six-year-old son, Zhuge Young Master, would have such terrifying combat power. As a result, two assassination attempts that should have been successful ultimately failed.
Of course, this is also what Young Master Zhuge doesn't understand. Because there is no record in history that Zhuge Liang was assassinated when he sent Jiangdong, and the son of Young Master Zhuge was actually born very late in history. So much so that Zhuge Dad once had to succeed Zhuge Qiao, the second son of his eldest brother Zhuge Jin, as his heir because he had no children after marriage.
But in this time and space, the early birth of the eldest young master Zhuge made everything start to be a little different. Young Master Zhuge didn't know if his arrival would trigger what people often called the "butterfly effect". One thing is certain, though, that the history here does not exactly match the history I know. Young Master Zhuge didn't know if this was a change in history, or because of the long history, there was a problem with the record of history.
For such a brain-consuming thing, a lazy person like Young Master Zhuge will rarely make an effort to explore. He prefers to live happily in the present. This guy is a realist!
Since he was assassinated that day, Sun Quan has sent someone to shush the cold and ask for warmth, sending this and that. Sun Quan said that those Jiangdong civil and military officers were willing to lag behind, whether out of politeness or to clear their relationship with the assassination? You come and go, like a marquee, which makes Zhuge father and son too annoying, and the most unbearable thing is that he can't stand it, so he closes the door and thanks! Anyway, Lao Tzu is not a member of your group, who cares if he can't offend you goods!
However, Uncle Zhuge who should have come to visit the most did not show up in order to avoid suspicion. Zhuge father and son became Liu Bei's messengers, came to lobby Jiangdong, and had a very unpleasant relationship with Jiangdong's civil and military forces! In this way, the situation of Zhuge Jin, the elder brother of Jiangdong Changshi, has become very embarrassing. Therefore, Uncle Zhuge tried not to show up as much as possible during this time, so as not to attract any rumors, which was not good for both parties.
However, Lu Su didn't have this consideration at all, after all, he brought the person, and his position was already very clear, which provided him with convenience for him to freely enter and leave the residence of Zhuge and his son. Since everyone knows that they are in a group, there is nothing worth gossiping about.
Sun Quan entrusted the investigation of the assassins to Lu Su, Gu Yong, and Sun Jiao. As a result, these three guys and the Zhonghu Army almost turned Chaisang City upside down, and they didn't find out anything! In fact, this result is also expected. Since people dare to carry out assassinations in front of your house, how can they not leave their own way back? What's more, these guys are still the people of the Black Panther Battalion trained by Guo Jia, the first strategist and ghost talent in the Three Kingdoms period, and this common sense is still there.
However, it is not that there is no gain at all, at least through the investigation of Sun Quan, he learned that there are so many black accounts in Chaisang City. Since Sun Quan ascended the throne, Jiangdong has been busy fighting everywhere and neglecting the construction of civil affairs. Many of the northern displaced people and scholars who have migrated south in recent years have been without hukou. If you don't check it, you don't know what to do, and you will be shocked when you check it! Unexpectedly, even Buqi and Zhuge Jin, who have become high-ranking officials in Jiangdong, and many northern scholars who have moved south for a long time are also in a state of black hukou. This question couldn't help but make Sun Quan very angry, and called Mr. Zhang Zhao, who was in charge of Jiangdong's civil affairs construction, over and scolded him fiercely! The heart said, tell you an old boy to teach Lao Tzu a lesson if you have something to do, but let Lao Tzu seize the opportunity! This is a painful scolding! The scolded Zhang Zhao was bloody, but because it was indeed his own negligence, Zhang Zhao had no choice but to apologize again and again!
After Sun Quan scolded happily, someone still needs someone to do the work. And among the ministers in Jiangdong, if you want to talk about administration, there are only a few Zhang Zhao who have two brushes. So Sun Quan ordered Zhang Zhaodai to make meritorious service and form a Jiangdong Census Committee with Gu Yong, Yan Ji, and Lu Ji to verify the population of the entire Jiangdong area. In fact, Sun Quan's original intention in doing this was not to implement the household registration management of the northern scholars who moved south, this guy was completely using the topic to play and kick out the leaders of these main descending factions out of Chaisang. Out of sight is pure!
However, since Zhang Zhao is the minister in charge, he needs to sit in Chaisang, so this old guy did not leave Chaisang. Of course, Sun Quan actually didn't want this old guy to leave at this time. Because Sun Quan knew that this old guy was still very loyal to himself, although he was now advocating surrender, as long as he made up his mind to fight Cao Cao, then this old guy would still stand firmly on his side.
But there is a special case here, and that is Gu Yong! This guy is clearly not the Lord and the faction! However, he was also sent to census the population with Yan Jian and Lu Ji! There is obviously an intention to send him to monitor Yan Jian and the others.
Lu Su, this guy has been running to Zhuge Daddy for a while. Discuss how to promote Sun Quan to make up his mind to resist Cao as soon as possible. Because since Zhang Zhao's night visit to Sun Quan, Sun Quan seems to be a little hesitant again! It was originally scheduled to hold a meeting to discuss the start of the army the next day, but it was shelved!
News came from Xizuo that the Cao army's attack in Jiangxia did not go well. Although Guan Yu is not as good as Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, after all, he is also a veteran on the battlefield. Relying on the strong city defense of Jiangxia City, the more than 200,000 soldiers and horses of Cao's army were dragged to death in Jiangxia. Zhang Fei was ordered to take 20,000 cavalry to make trouble behind Cao Cao if he had something to do! Cao Cao, who was harmed, had to divide his troops to encircle and suppress Zhang Fei. Don't look at Zhang Fei's rough guy, but he is really slippery when he fights. Cao Cao sent several soldiers and horses, but he couldn't catch this guy. Cao Cao was so angry that he wanted to drop the cup, but fortunately, Cheng Yu hugged the tea bowl to persuade him, otherwise he would have to spend a lot of innocent porcelain bowls!
This news reached Jiangdong and made Sun Quan breathe a sigh of relief! At least he didn't have to make a decision right away! But a few more days to think! Recently, because of whether it was a joint fight with Liu Bei against Cao, Jiangdong civil and military quarrels were inextricable! Sun Quan really didn't want to provoke them anymore! In addition, the current dominant wind in Koto is still the capitulation faction that prevails! So Sun Quan would rather put this matter on hold. He seems to be waiting for something!
