Just from this aspect, Soochow is indeed not as much as the Celestial Empire.

Seeing that Sun Quan was silent in thought, Sun Shangxiang struck while the iron was hot and said: "This is only in terms of the system, the Celestial Empire is also extremely cautious in the use of officials, with clear rewards and punishments, and vigorously promotes capable meritorious officials, but at the same time, those who are in their positions and do not seek political positions also dare to remove or transfer to idle positions." For example, famous and capable scribes like Guo Jia and Lu Su, peerless generals like Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, which one is not really subservient to the emperor? In contrast, the promotion of officials in Soochow is indeed more senior, although this can play a certain role in stabilizing the situation of the dynasty, but why is it not a sign of conservatism? If you defend the country, there may still be hope, but when it comes to conquering from all sides, there are still too many things missing. ”

"Here, the Celestial Empire has concentrated power on the emperor alone, and under an order, the army will use it in one place and use its strength in one place, which is far from being as difficult to manage as our Eastern Wu has its own careful thoughts. To put it bluntly, the big knife of the Celestial Empire is like a sharp knife, as long as the emperor gives an order, this sharp knife is rushed to stab anywhere, and it is still invincible. In contrast, although the father also had a lot of power, when it came to the use of troops, he really needed the support of many parties. ”

is worthy of being Sun Jian's daughter, perhaps because of the factors of life since childhood, Sun Shangxiang is far more concerned about national political affairs than others, and the above is not a summary of what she usually sees and observes.

Every time Zhang Chao conquers a place, the first thing to solve is the problem of the local family. But for those families who don't understand, they will never be polite, and the land will be confiscated at the least, and the clan will be punished at the worst.

Naturally, there have been some backlashes in this way, but it is much better than appeasing first and then investing a lot of energy to manage.

It is precisely because of Zhang Chao's iron-blooded policy that everywhere he goes, the noble families are all looking down on the wind, and they dare not have the slightest intention of resistance, let alone talk about any conditions.

A large amount of land is in the hands of the royal family, so that more people can be fed, and more things can be done with money and food.

Of course, not everyone will choose Zhang Chao's approach. After all, the rulers of society at that time were still dominated by families, such as when Cao Cao was alive, he rarely offended them, but only gave a certain amount of suppression and blows within the limit. For example, Liu Bei and Sun Quan are trying their best to curry favor with the local families, hoping that they can contribute at a critical time, but it turns out that although this can earn some reputation on the surface, when things reach a critical time, problems will appear, and people who don't listen to greetings are not uncommon.

Zhang Chao's iron and bloody wrists, the new laws formulated, or the care and love for important courtiers, etc., these skills are beyond the reach of others, and it is precisely because of this that the Celestial Empire can develop so strong in a short period of time, even the northern power Rus has been defeated.

Seeing the power and strength of the Celestial Empire, Sun Shangxiang had a sense of urgency, that is, Dongwu would definitely not be the opponent of the Celestial Empire, and once there was a war, it was only a matter of time before he was defeated. And for the sake of her family and loved ones, she must now stand up and say something.

Sun Shangxiang was talking, Sun Quan listened carefully on the side, and continued to analyze in his heart, without the slightest awareness that he was now a prisoner.

He talked for a long time, until Sun Shangxiang felt that his mouth was a little dry, so he stopped, and then looked at Sun Quan and said seriously: "Little brother, you have always been the heart of your father and mother since you were a child, and you must not have an accident." My sister won't watch you have an accident, so for the sake of our family, you really need to think about it now, what should you do next? What is Soochow going to do? ”

"Of course, if you have to go to war with the Celestial Empire, then my sister can't stop you, even if you are my little brother, I will definitely do my best to help you. This time I came in and brought two maids, these are all I can trust, if you still want to be an enemy of the Celestial Empire, then dress up as them, and I will take you out. ”

Seeing that after a long day's work, Sun Quan still didn't say a word, and Sun Shangxiang showed his last hole card.

In ancient times, men were inferior to women, and even the Sun family was not exempt from vulgarity. Sun Shangxiang knows very well that once her younger brother has an accident, it will be a big blow to her father and mother, and in order not to make the old man sad, she will also let it go.

"Sister, if you do this, once the Emperor of the Celestial Empire knows about it and blames it, what can you do? And what about my nephew? When he heard this, Sun Quan finally couldn't be indifferent, although he was proud, and even sometimes a little selfish, he wanted to behave well, but when it came to specific things, he also had his own measurements.

Hearing that Sun Quan would still care about him, Sun Shangxiang's face showed a smile of relief, but then he slowly closed his eyes and said, "As long as the little brother is fine, even if the sister is dead, what's the matter?" As for Ying'er, no matter what he says, he is also the emperor's flesh and blood, so there shouldn't be anything wrong. ”

said so, but when she thought that Sun Quan really escaped, I was afraid that with the laws of the Celestial Empire, she would not be able to get any benefits, at that time, she suffered Xiao Zhang, she had no mother since she was a child, and she didn't know how to live her life.

"This..."Sun Quan was indeed a little moved at this moment. After all, he didn't think from the bottom of his heart that he was really defeated by the Celestial Empire army, but he was captured only by carelessness. Now that I have a chance to escape, it's strange that my heart doesn't move. But when he saw his sister close her eyes, and even tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, he couldn't help but soften in his heart, and changed his words: "No, if I really do this, wouldn't it hurt my sister?" Such a thing is done by the younger brother to come out. ”

Sun Quan did not sell himself because he wanted to live, which made Sun Shangxiang heartfelt comfort. But when she thought of her younger brother's situation now, she really had to say: "Even if you don't want to go out, then surrender to the Heavenly Empire, believe in my sister, this is the best way to save our Sun family." ”

"Wait until I think about it." This time, Sun Quan did not remain silent, but began to pace back and forth in the room, knowing very well how important the next decision was, and how important it was.

Sun Shangxiang was not in a hurry, just waiting for Sun Quan to make a decision. This is how the minutes and seconds passed.

From Sun Shangxiang to death row, two hours have passed, and after such a long time, someone has also reported the matter to Emperor Zhang Chao.

In this regard, Zhang Chao just said that he knew, so he didn't care. In his opinion, the longer the conversation, the better it may be, proving that Sun Shangxiang said that Sun Quan was moved, and if he wants to solve the problem of Eastern Wu, it is not enough to win over some of the courtiers of Eastern Wu, and the attitude of the second prince is also quite important.

On death row.

I don't know how many times he went back and forth, Sun Quan finally made up his mind, that is, he wanted to talk to Zhang Chao about it, and he wanted to see how his brother-in-law, the emperor of the Celestial Empire, could establish such a powerful Celestial Empire in a short period of time.

Sun Quan said that he wanted to meet Zhang Chao to talk, but Sun Shangxiang did not agree immediately, but said that he would give it a try, and as for whether it can be done, it all depends on Zhang Chao's own intentions.

Sun Shangxiang finally left, and when she left, Tie Twenty had already handed over everything to Tie Eleven to deal with, because the previous head of the guard was arrested for provoking Tie Wei, and this time he personally led the team to send Hua Guifei back to the palace.

Sitting in the soft sedan chair, watching Tie Twenty send himself back with a team of brocade guards, Sun Shangxiang couldn't help but feel a lot of feelings, under the system of the Celestial Empire, the soldiers did not show anything, which was far from being comparable to the father's Dongwu. At this moment, she was even more determined to convince her family not to become enemies of the Celestial Empire.

In the palace, Zhang Chao was working in the main hall, and Sun Shangxiang appeared. After reporting that Xiao Xiangzi knew, he came to Zhang Chao.

"The concubine has seen the emperor." As soon as he saw Zhang Chao, Sun Shangxiang saluted very respectfully.

"Haha, Xiang'er doesn't have to be so polite, come, come to my side." Zhang Chao, who was sitting behind the big case, looked up and saw Sun Shangxiang coming, and waved with a smile on his face.

After walking a few steps and coming to the hall, Sun Shangxiang was taken into Zhang Chao's arms.

After Zhang Chao came back, he had not been fortunate to Sun Shangxiang. First, because there are a lot of things that need to be dealt with, secondly, the queen and several other imperial concubines also need to move around, and thirdly, of course, because of Dongwu, this meeting is afraid that Sun Shangxiang is not in the mood, and Zhang Chao will not be bored.

Now holding Sun Shangxiang in his arms and feeling the natural body fragrance, Zhang Chao's body naturally has a little feeling.

Feeling this change, Sun Shangxiang's face immediately blushed, "Don't worry, stay at night, and the concubines will serve the emperor." ”

"Okay, haha, okay." Zhang Chao was overjoyed after hearing this, he didn't want to force anyone, but if someone asks for something, he will still do his best to satisfy it.

Feeling that Zhang Chao's mood seemed to be good, Sun Shangxiang took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, just now the concubine went to see the criminal brother and talked to him a lot, he has been affected and infected, but he also made a request, that is, he wants to meet the emperor, I don't know..."

"Exactly." Zhang Chao didn't say a word, and agreed. This is naturally for Sun Shangxiang's sake, but there is also the reason why he wants to settle Dongwu peacefully.

Just like the analysis of Zhou Yu, the left army division of Eastern Wu. Although the Celestial Empire won against the Rus Kingdom this time, its own consumption was also not small, and now several legions are being rebuilt, which will take a certain amount of time. If he started a war with Eastern Wu at this time, although the victory was assured, the losses would only be greater, and then it would be a problem to conquer Shu and the Western Regions, which was not what he wanted to see. It can also be said that whether the issue of Soochow can be resolved peacefully will have a great impact on the future development of the Celestial Empire.
