Two big men pinned their safety on a woman for the safety of going to the enemy. Sun Shangxiang thinks it makes sense.

Just these two goods, a typical helpless chicken, who else can you rely on if you don't rely on yourself?!

But there is one point, Sun Shangxiang is very unhappy, no matter how Brother Gongjin changes, he is still the same Brother Gongjin.

On the grounds of an invitation, he was detained and framed, that is what the elegant and elegant brother Gongjin can do? !

Therefore, Sun Shangxiang was very dissatisfied with the small belly chicken intestines of a certain two men, and when he went to the appointment, Sun Shangxiang directly wore his daily clothes, and he didn't even wear a strong suit.

It's impossible to fight, what are you wearing it, it looks like we're being cautious and embarrassed.

When the time for the appointment is up, and the people who have gone to the appointment are also gathered, then let's go directly.

Zhou Yu ordered someone to set up a temporary pavilion under Jiangling City, set up a banquet, and did not wear armor, and Lu Xun and Lu Xun both attended the banquet in regular clothes.

Zhang Xi actually wanted to wear an inner armor in his clothes just in case, but after being scolded by Sun Shangxiang, he finally changed his mind and went to the appointment in regular clothes.

The two sides met and saluted.

Zhou Yu and Zhang Xi, Sun Shangxiang, and Wang Ji are ordinary peer greetings, and the unlucky Lu Xun has to give Sun Shangxiang an extra junior gift.

There is no way, who let Lu Xun's wife be Sun Ce's daughter, although the two are about the same age, they are different.

After greeting each other, the guests and hosts sat down, and then began to chat.

To be precise, it was Sun Shangxiang who was chatting with Zhou Yu, and Wang Ji was having a relationship with Lu Xun, so Zhang Xi had nothing to do.

According to etiquette, Zhang Xi is the guest of honor, and the matter of entertaining him should be the business of Zhou Yu, the initiator of the banquet. But Zhou Yu, the initiator of the banquet, was busy chatting with his sister who he hadn't seen for a long time.

Brother-in-law or something, let's stay cool first.

At this time, Lu Xun, as the deputy, should theoretically take on the task of accompanying the guest of honor, but Lu Xun really didn't want to do it.

After all, if you strictly want to talk about it from Sun Shangxiang's point of view, Lu Xun still has to call Zhang Xi uncle. It's a bit of a loss of face.

Today's theme, after all, is not a real private banquet, but a public matter, strictly speaking, it is still the Eastern Wu side looking for an opportunity to persuade Zhang Xi. The persuasion hasn't started yet, so what's the matter if you're a generation shorter first?!

And secondly. Doesn't Lu Xun still have a Wang Ji to accompany him?

You can't snub people, can you?!

If you want to persuade Zhang Xi to surrender, then Wang Ji is also an important link, and if Wang Ji is unwilling to surrender, this is also an unstable factor. Well, Lu Xun admits that this is just an excuse, he mainly doesn't want to get involved in the matter between Zhou Yu and Zhang Xi.

These two people, rumored in the market, say that the two are "friends of Zhou Zhang", even if they really quarrel, they will leave a love for each other.

If Lu Xun inserts it without a head or brain, it will be a little difficult for Zhou Yu to do, and with Zhang Xi's identity, I am afraid that in front of the Supreme, Lu Xun may not be able to please him.

Therefore, Lu Xun was just as if he didn't see Zhang Xi and no one to take care of him, and chatted with Wang Ji in front of him.

Coincidentally, Wang Ji actually has the same idea as Lu Xun, he doesn't want to get involved in the matter between Zhou Yu and Zhang Xi, and even he came this time, just out of etiquette, you Zhou Yu brought Lu Xun, so according to etiquette, he Wang Ji must also accompany him.

To put it bluntly, Wang Ji's mentality of coming to the appointment to see the excitement is far greater than the mentality of the so-called formal negotiation.

Let Zhou Yu and Zhang Xi settle the matter between the two armies, anyway, these two people can't be the kind of people who betray their own monarch, and the rest is nothing more than to see who can convince whom, whether they can avoid a war.

One more. Between Wang Ji and Lu Xun, the more they talked, the more they found that each other's knowledge, character, and personality were very temperamental.

Originally, they were just chatting with each other on business, chatting and chatting, but the two of them were actually very engaged in chatting, and slowly began to discuss the scriptures.

Of course, it does not involve the military, only the Confucian classics, one is a child of a family, and the other is a closed disciple of Zheng Xuan, and there are still a lot of common words between the two in the classics.

In this way, the dignified Han Jingzhou Mu, the former general, and Zhang Xi, the Marquis of Bolu, has now become an ornament, and no one cares about it at all.

In the end, Sun Shangxiang couldn't stand it anymore, glared at Zhou Yu, took the initiative to stop the reminiscence between the brother and sister, and began to push his husband forward, while he took the initiative to move his cushion back half a step.

Zhou Yu looked at Sun Shangxiang helplessly. After this private chat, I am afraid that there is no room for continued chatting between the two people.

But. No way, it's a matter of time.

The purpose of today's banquet is to persuade Zhang Xi, this kid, after all.

Therefore, Zhou Yu looked at Zhang Xi, who was still studying the pattern on the wine glass in front of him, whether it belonged to the cloud pattern or the tiger pattern.

Well. It's not like four!

Zhou Yu was helpless, so he could only cough to remind Zhang Xi of his attention, but he didn't expect that this cough would really cough.

Zhou Yu was also surprised, he just coughed dryly, how did he trigger such a big chain reaction. Is there really something wrong with your body?!

No, I can't. If there's a problem, you should be able to detect it, but it's an old medicine jar.

Zhou Yu's sudden series of coughs not only scared himself, but also scared Lu Xun, Zhang Xi, and Sun Shangxiang, and Sun Shangxiang was even so anxious that he directly crossed the guest of honor position to pat Zhou Yu on the back.

Only Wang Ji looked at Zhou Yu thoughtfully, his eyes flickered, but he didn't say a word.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu's cough didn't last long, and it didn't take a while to calm down.

Seeing this, Zhang Xi rolled his eyes angrily, and said to Zhou Yu, "The Metropolitan Governor can go and take care of his body, if there is another misfortune of Baqiu, I am afraid that no one can cure it now!" ”

If someone else said this, Lu Xun would not be annoyed. Curse whom?!

But Zhang Xi, he has this qualification.

If Zhang Xi hadn't specially invited Zhang Zhongjing to treat the general, I'm afraid the general would really not be able to survive that time. Now that Zhang Zhongjing has passed away, Zhang Xi said this, which can be regarded as a reminder to the general not to overwork.

So, Lu Xun didn't want to get involved in the affairs of these two people, the reason was that there were some things here, others said that they were offensive, but Zhang Xi said that the general could even think that he cared about him.

Sure enough, Zhou Yu didn't mean to be angry at all, but waved his hand and said to Zhang Xi, "In the end, I'm getting old, and my body is not as good as before. But it won't be impossible to bring troops. ”

The first half of the sentence is quite relaxed, but the second half of the sentence is directly sharp.

Sun Shangxiang just wanted to say something, but looking at Zhou Yu's face and her husband's sharp eyes, her mouth moved slightly, and finally she didn't say anything.

And Zhang Xi, looking at Zhou Yu with sharp eyes, sneered, and said, "So, the Metropolitan Governor came to raise troops this time to take away my Dahanzhou County?!" ”

"Yes!" Zhou Yu didn't hesitate, nodded and admitted.

Zhang Xi was also stunned, he didn't expect Zhou Yu to admit it so simply, he said it so bluntly, is it really good? !

"You and I are both generals in the army, there is no need to blame each other like literati to come here, just for Jingzhou, to expand the territory for Dawu, and to set the ears of the world!" Zhou Yu followed closely and added such a sentence.

That means, don't talk nonsense that goes around and around, it's not a debate in the court, it's a battle in the field, and you don't play with flowers.

That being the case

"The general has the ambition to clear the world, and the stream also has the responsibility of defending the land and the country, and I will wait for the battle on the battlefield!" Zhang Xi immediately put on a straight face and responded.

It's not necessary, if you want to attack, if you want to defend, then fight.

But Zhou Yu smiled slightly, and continued, "I besiege the city on three sides with 100,000 people, and the commander of the army is less than 40,000, do you think there is a chance of victory?!" ”

Zhang Xi was stunned, what do you mean?!

"Jiangling is a strong city, impregnable, there are soldiers in the city who wear armor to defend the country, why can't you defend it if there is endless food for ten years?!"

Although he didn't know what it meant, Zhang Xi responded first.

Zhou Yu smiled, and did not refute Zhang Xi's words, but continued according to his own train of thought, "In the past, Liu Xuande was alive, and the heroes of the world were also related, Zhang Zhiyong, like a tiger with wings. The chief is supplemented by wisdom, but it can be regarded as a monarch and a minister. Now Liu Xuande and Guan Yunchang have passed away, and Zhang Yide is old and dying and cannot be used. Moreover, the son of the Liu family is weak, and the foundation is entrusted to the hand of Zhuge Kongming, who is assisted by the head of the Yuan, Liu Shiyan, Zhuge Yan?! ”

Well?! This is what I said. Playing sowing discord?!

Don't talk about Zhang Xi, even Wang Ji, they all want to subconsciously stand up and refute Zhou Yu.

However, Zhang Xi raised his hand slightly, stopped Wang Ji, and thought about it seriously.

Of course, it is not a question of who to assist, but to think about why Zhou Yu asked this.

It is possible for others to ask this kind of question, whether it is with ulterior motives or to sow discord.

Are you Zhou Yu serious about asking this kind of question?!

You don't want to think about who was worried about the damage to Jiangdong's foundation back then, so he actually led his troops to mourn, and after learning that Sun Ce's last life was correct, he was the first to bow down to Sun Quan. Are you embarrassed to ask me this question?!

Therefore, in Zhang Xi's view, Zhou Yu's words are completely unreasonable.

Even Zhang Xi squinted his eyes, probably guessing Zhou Yu's thoughts, he couldn't help but raise his head slightly, looked at Zhou Yu with a sneer, and said, "In the past, when I was in Jiangdong, Xi first saw the Metropolitan Governor, and the Metropolitan Governor once said: The eldest husband meets the master of confidant, and the righteousness of the monarch and ministers is entrusted externally, and the affection of flesh and blood is not known to the monarch that the Metropolitan Governor said, is it Sun Bofu, or Sun Zhongmou?!" ”

When this question was asked, Zhou Yu's face slowly fell.
