The 60th Battle of Eastern Wu and Southern Han Dynasty Drives Cao Wei to the Central Plains Unification (24)
It was precisely because Sun Quan knew Sun Shangxiang's temper that he revealed the danger of the mission. If it was an ordinary woman, she would inevitably retreat when she heard the danger, but Sun Shangxiang was the opposite, the more dangerous she was, the more she took the bait.
In order to get Sun Shangxiang to agree to his plan, Sun Quan said after carefully wording: "My sister should know that my Great Wu Foundation has been lost, Cao Wei has also lost its capital, and the Wu and Wei armies are not opponents of the Nanye army at all. If this continues, we will all be killed by Nan Ye. If my sister wants to marry Nan Ye, then the matter of peace will be successful, and the two armies will be preserved, but I don't know what my sister wants? ”
Sun Shangxiang was surprised and delighted when she heard this, she already liked Nan Ye, and longed for the day when she married Nan Ye and could go into battle like Ma Yunluo to kill the enemy. But since the war between Eastern Wu and the Southern Han Dynasty, Sun Shangxiang has given up this thought, and he didn't expect that Sun Quan would marry her to his sweetheart today.
Although Sun Quan gave Sun Shangxiang to Nan Ye to seek peace, Sun Shangxiang was not disgusted in his heart. Sun Shangxiang, who was born in a family, understood that his marriage was not decided by himself at all, and it was normal for a woman from a family to marry politically for the benefit of the family. Sun Shangxiang felt that it was a very happy thing to be able to marry a man he admired in a political marriage.
Sun Quan was speechless when he saw Sun Shangxiang surprised, and thought that she was unwilling, so he cautiously tested: "For my brother, I often hear my sister mention that she wants to go into battle to kill the enemy and contribute to the country, and share my worries, and now my sister alone can save thousands of troops and horses and solve the crisis of the two countries, is my sister unwilling?" ”
Sun Shangxiang hurriedly shook his head when he heard this, and said with a red face: "It's not that the little sister refuses, but I'm afraid that the national teacher won't accept it." ”
When Sun Quan heard that Sun Shangxiang was willing, he breathed a sigh of relief at that time, waved his hand and said, "There is no need to worry about this." Even if Nan Ye doesn't accept it, his sister can also break Nan Ye's soldiers and make him retreat. ”
Sun Shangxiang was surprised: "The national teacher is unwilling to accept me to make peace, how can the little sister make the national teacher withdraw from the army?" ”
Sun Quan said with a smile: "Don't hide it from my sister, it's a plan to marry and seek peace." If Nan Ye accepts his sister, his sister can find a good opportunity to kill him in the future. Nan Ye didn't know martial arts, and he was destined to die at the hands of his sister, and at that time, the Southern Han Dynasty was in turmoil, and it was the time when my Great Wu revived. If Nan Ye refuses, his sister can take advantage of the time to raise the thunderbolt cart and heavy grain and grass in the camp, so that Nan Ye can also withdraw from the army. My sister is done! ”
After listening to Sun Quan's plan, Sun Shangxiang's face suddenly turned pale, and his liver and intestines were broken, as if the sky was falling. It was hard to grit my teeth and hold back my crying.
Before Sun Quan said that the marriage alliance between the two families was good, Sun Shangxiang did not object, and was even very happy, because Sun Shangxiang knew that he would marry someone sooner or later, if he could marry the person he liked, it would be beneficial to his family and country, Sun Shangxiang was naturally happy. But Sun Quan asked her to assassinate her husband and burn heavy grain and grass, and Sun Shangxiang was sad. Because in this way, it is not a marriage at all, but a poisonous plan, whether it succeeds or not, Sun Shangxiang will definitely die.
Sun Quan used Sun Shangxiang's life and happiness to exchange Nan Ye's retreat, how could Sun Shangxiang not feel pain in his heart? She never expected her brother to be so ruthless, no wonder he didn't dare to let his mother know.
Seeing Sun Shangxiang's face blue and white for a while, and tears rolling in his eyes, Sun Quan knew that it was not good. He said all the plans, also because Sun Shangxiang agreed to sacrifice his life to sue for peace just now. Sun Quan never considered Sun Shangxiang's feelings and life or death, and he thought that Sun Shangxiang was ready to sacrifice for the country by agreeing to sacrifice himself to serve the thief. Now it seems that this is not the case.
Sun Quan understood that whether it was assassination or burning the camp, Sun Shangxiang had to be voluntary, and at this time Sun Shangxiang was so aggrieved, Sun Quan couldn't do anything, and said in a changed tone: "This is Sima Yi's plan, he was ruthless, and he actually trapped his sister to death." My brother didn't approve of it, so I came to discuss it with my sister. If my sister is unwilling, the matter will be stopped, but it will only suffer the people of the two countries. After saying that, Sun Quan peeked at Sun Shangxiang's reaction.
Sun Shangxiang is a straight temper, and she doesn't have as many fancy intestines as Sun Quan, and when she heard that it was Sima Yi's strategy, she was in a better mood. After all, Sima Yi has no relatives and no reason with him, and it is understandable to use himself to kill Nan Ye, as long as this poisonous plan is not from his brother Sun Quan, Sun Shangxiang will not be sad.
After calming down a little, Sun Shangxiang choked up and said: "What my brother said, the little sister is willing to go, if the national teacher does not accept, the little sister is also willing to secretly burn food, but it is impossible to assassinate the national teacher." ”
Sun Quan was surprised when he heard this: "Why is this? ”
Sun Shangxiang said: "There is a way to follow the father at home and marry the husband." The father has been dead for many years, and it is only right that the younger sister's marriage is decided by the elder brother. The national teacher Ruona's little sister, the little sister is the Nan family, so she should be careful of her husband, how can she assassinate her again? The national teacher does not accept the little sister, the little sister is still the Sun family, and it is indispensable to burn food for her brother, even if she dies, she is willing. ”
Sun Quan didn't expect Sun Shangxiang to kill Nan Ye, as long as Nan Ye was allowed to retreat, Sun Quan would already be very satisfied. If Nan Ye accepts Sun Shangxiang, it will accept the request for peace, and he will naturally withdraw from the army, on the contrary, Sun Shangxiang will burn Nan Ye's grain and grass, and Nan Ye will also withdraw from the army, and Sun Quan will not suffer a loss, so he nodded hurriedly and said: "This is very good!" I ordered someone to prepare to go and propose, and my sister went with me. After finishing speaking, Sun Quan added: "My sister must not let her mother know about this matter, otherwise this matter will be difficult!" ”
Sun Shangxiang nodded gloomily, the only person she admires in this life is Nan Ye, and Sun Shangxiang, who has a strong temperament, is ready to become a benevolent person if she doesn't succeed. If Nan Ye accepts her on this trip, if she doesn't, Sun Shangxiang doesn't want to live, so she agrees to Sun Quan's request to burn grain, and naturally she doesn't want her mother to worry.
Seeing that Sun Shangxiang agreed, Sun Quan hurriedly ordered someone to go down to prepare, so that Lu Fan was the messenger of peace, Sun Shangxiang's maid was the guard, and there were many sesame oil candles in the gifts as the things that ignited the fire.
Lu Fan was ordered to pack up his bags, take hundreds of soldiers as porters, carry gifts in colorful clothes, and beat gongs and drums. Sun Shangxiang led more than 100 maids, all dressed in red, and everyone rode horses and swords, and followed Lu Fan straight to the Nanye camp.
The defenders in the Nanye camp couldn't help but look at each other when they saw a group of men and horses dressed in red and green. Although the discipline in the Nanye army is extremely strict, and the innocent people are never harmed, let alone burned, killed, and adulterous, but the ordinary people hide far away when they see the two armies fighting, and it is impossible for a team to welcome their relatives and marry their daughters-in-law on the battlefield, which makes all the soldiers very strange, and they all gather at the camp gate to look outside.
Gao Shun happened to patrol the camp and arrived at the Zhaimen, and when he saw that some soldiers were gathered in one place, he stepped forward and scolded: "You don't have to train anymore, what are you doing here?" ”
Those soldiers gathered at the camp gate were all resting after training, so they had time to watch the excitement. However, in front of Gao Shun, the iron-masked general, no one dared to speak out to defend themselves, and they all shrank their heads and scattered. Everyone else is gone, and the soldiers who are really guarding the camp gate can't go, and when they saw Gao Shun asking, they replied: "There is a marriage team in the distance, and everyone has come to see." ”
Needless to explain, Gao Shun also saw Lu Fan's men and horses, and what made him feel strange was that this group of men and horses was actually coming in the direction of the camp, Gao Shun simply stood still, wanting to see what this team of men and horses was going to do.
Lu Fanlai dismounted in front of the camp, and when he saw the sergeant of Nanye Village, he was secretly frightened, and came to the camp gate while thinking about his words. Gao Shun saw that these people were really coming to the camp, so he motioned for the gatekeeper to come forward and ask.
Two guards stopped Lu Fan and asked, "Who are you?" What did you do in the camp? ”
Lu Fan saw that the two soldiers were angry and not angry, and said with a smile: "I am Lu Fan, the envoy of Eastern Wu, Ziheng, and I am here today to seek peace, and please be the national teacher on my behalf." ”
Gao Shun had been watching from behind, and when he heard that Lu Fan was coming for peace, he stepped forward and asked, "Since Mr. Ziheng came to ask for peace, why did he bring so many horses?" ”
As soon as Lu Fan saw Gao Shun wearing armor, he knew that he was a general in the army, so he was even more polite and arched his hand: "I don't know what this general is called?" ”
Gao Shun returned the salute and said: "A certain is Gao Shun!" ”
Lu Fan said: "I have heard General Gao's name for a long time. Don't hide it from the general, this time, one is to seek peace, and the other is to be a matchmaker. My lord Sun Zhongmou has a sister, who was born with a beautiful national color, and wants to offer a concubine to the national teacher, marry forever, and turn hostility into jade silk. There are dowry gifts behind me, and the general should not be careful. ”
When Gao Shun heard that Lu Fan came to be a matchmaker, it was really difficult to stop him, he glanced at the people behind Lu Fan, but all the men resisted carrying gifts and did not bring weapons, although the maid wore a sword, Gao Shun did not put it in his eyes. He ordered the gatekeeper to clear the rejection deer, open the gate of the wall, and then said to Lu Fan: "Sir, please follow me into the camp to rest first, and then let me be the national teacher." ”
Lu Fan didn't expect Gao Shun's power to be small, so he followed Gao Shun into the camp. Although Gao Shun let people into the camp, he was not without guard, he led Lu Fan and his party to the open space in the camp to wait, surrounded by Southern Han soldiers. Gao Shun secretly instructed the soldiers to take precautions, and then went to the Shuai tent to report to Nan Ye.
Nan Ye was chatting with Guo Jia and Pang Tong in the tent, and he heard Gao Shun report that Sun Quan of Eastern Wu offered his sister to ask for peace. Nan Ye was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at the two strategists and asked, "What does Sun Quan mean by this?" ”
Pang Tong said with a smile: "This must be Sun Quan's plan to withdraw from the army!" ”
Nan Ye said: "Since it's a plan, I shouldn't be." "After speaking, he will order Gao Shun to drive people away.
Guo Jia said at this time: "Sun Quan sent an envoy to present a beautiful woman, if the national teacher does not see the last side, he will lose his etiquette." Why not call the messenger and listen to what he has to say? ”
Nan Ye smiled when he heard this: "Are there still few beauties around me?" Why bother? ”
Pang Tong said: "It's okay for the national teacher not to see the beauty, but the envoy should see it, otherwise it will not be in line with the etiquette." ”
Nan Ye was right to think about it, so he ordered Gao Shun to prepare a camp tent, first settle the female dependents and rest with their entourage, and then let the envoy Lu Fan come in. After Lu Fan entered the account, he sat down after the ceremony, and Nan Ye asked, "Mr. Ziheng is here, what is his business?" ”
Lu Fan arched his hand and said: "I am here to seek peace!" ”
Nan Ye said: "Sun Zhongmou contacted Cao Pi to attack my ally Liu Bei, and sealed my dart bureau and money village, isn't it too late to sue for peace now?" ”
Lu Fan said: "Even if my lord has been in the first place, the national teacher has already taken away my six states of Eastern Wu, why rush to kill them all?" Today, my lord sincerely seeks peace, in order to express his sincere wish to marry Qin and Jin with the national teacher, I don't know what the respect is? ”
