Compared with Zhou Yu's youth and vigor, Sun Quan prefers the older Zhang Zhao, he picked up a piece of pork and smelled it first, sure enough, it was just a simple meat aroma, and there was no strange taste.

Put it in the mouth and chew it gently, the pork is soft and glutinous, and the saltiness is moderate, except for the simple adjustment with salt, the rest is the original taste of the ingredients.

Ah, it smells so good. Because Sun Quan has a wealthy family, he has created a character that he will enjoy, and spending money is often not enough; When Sun Ce was alive, he asked Lu Fan for money for personal matters, but he was politely rejected and became suspicious; During the period of acting as the county magistrate of Yangxian, he often embezzled public funds for private use, and relied on Gong Cao Zhougu to make false accounts to deal with Sun Ce's audit.

Sun Quan would enjoy it, and his diet was also among them, and he rarely ate pork because of its fishy taste. After tasting the meat sent by Zhang Zhao, Sun Quan changed his opinion on pork.

"It's so good, why is it different? Could it be that the water and soil in Hefei are different? Zhang Zhao said with a smile: "I once asked someone who came over, and I heard that this kind of fragrant pig breeding method was taught by Long Yunqi, and this person is really an all-rounder."

"This guy can always give me something new. It's delicious." Sun Quan was hungry, and he didn't care about eating at all, so he feasted in front of Zhang Zhao.

Zhang Zhao looked surprised: "The lord is so anxious, can't he have dinner yet?" ”

"Meals? I'm full of gas." Sun Quan was eating meat while telling Zhou Yu's behavior, Zhang Zhao's eyes widened when he heard it, and he muttered to himself after a while: "Gong Jin should be an unintentional move, the matter of Long Xiang marrying Erqiao has been spreading in the city recently, and he may be unhappy in his heart."

"Is he unhappy? Running around throwing me food dings? Sun Quan had a blank face, secretly thinking that Zhou Yu would lift a stone and hit himself in the foot, if it wasn't for his suggestion to use Naer Bridge as a reason to take Hefei, he would not be ridiculed by others now.

Zhang Zhao smiled embarrassedly and explained: "Gong Jin and Bo Fu are like brothers, and I didn't say anything about the loyalty of the lord, although he acted recklessly this time, the starting point is also good, so don't be angry."

"You and Gongjin are my right-hand men, who will be angry with me? Just complained "Sun Quan pretended to be very generous, but in his heart he had long regarded Zhou Yu as a powerful minister, how could the powerful minister and the lord become friends?

Seeing Zhang Zhao brushing his beard and head, he couldn't help but tease in his heart, you and Zhou Yu are not all the way, so it seems very fake to help him speak.

Zhang Zhao stayed aside, watching Sun Quan concentrate on 'dry rice', and only after the meat in the dingzhong was slowly emptied did he return to the table and sit upright.

"Hiccups are so full" Sun Quan patted his belly and said with a smile: "This pork is really good, go back to Long Yunqi and ask, how to raise such a fragrant pig, if he is not willing to share, let's buy one or two every month, and let everyone always have a fragrant mouth."

"No problem, I'll do this, if the lord has nothing else to do." Zhang Zhao was about to leave, but before he got up, he was stopped by Sun Quan: "There is one more thing, Gongjin also wants to supervise Shi Shuqu, I don't know what Zibu's opinion is?" Zhang Zhao's face changed, and he said that Zhou Lang's hands were itchy, right?

It's not fun to hold military power, but you also want to meddle in domestic and foreign affairs? He frowned and pondered for a moment, then arched his hand and said, "Gongjin is busy with military affairs, and the rebellion in Shanyue has not been quelled in various places, how can he be of little use?" The construction of Shi Shuqu is normal, so don't bother him to go, right? ”

"What Zhang Gong said is very true." Sun Quan affirmed it, and then sighed meaningfully: "However, no matter how many rebellions in Shanyue are, there will always be a time when peace will end" Zhang Zhao understood the sound outside the strings, and dared to love the lord who was afraid of Zhou Yu's dictatorship, and wanted to keep the other party in the field all the year round, and said in his heart that this is not a hand-held pinch?

"There are still external troubles in the pacification of civil strife, Liu Biao in Jingzhou, Chen Deng in Guangling, and even Cao Cao in the Central Plains, the world is so vast, Gongjin has a lot to do."

"Hmm," Sun Quan nodded frequently when he heard this. Regarding Zhou Yu's justification just now, Sun Quan planned to go the other way, so he instructed Zhang Zhaodao: "Since the construction of Shiqi Canal is normal, Zibu should send fewer people to Hefei, so that Long Xiang thinks that we have a plan, and we will go and see it before completion" Zhang Zhao hurriedly reminded: "The lord emptied the Lujiang River last year, and now it is not appropriate for Huainan not to send people, right?" That would cut off the intelligence of the Central Plains."

"It doesn't matter." Sun Quan waved his hand lightly: "I am already preparing with Bohai, and I will lead troops to enter Lujiang in a few days." Zhang Zhao was puzzled: "But why?" Sun Quan explained: "Mei Cheng, Chen Lan and other Huainan bandits, all have the intention of returning to my Jiangdong, sent a lot of letters during the Chinese New Year, I think that their thief nature is difficult to change, moving to Jiangdong will become a disaster, simply stay in Lujiang under the jurisdiction of Bohai, then not only can restrain Long Xiang, but also cooperate with the main force of Jiangdong to go north." ”

"I see." Zhang Zhao suddenly realized, and then admonished: "It's just that these people are thieves and thieves are difficult to change, and they must tell Wei Kou Zhongyun to be careful, and Yan Xiang is a lesson from the past." Sun Quan nodded and replied: "Bohai is reliable, there should be no problems, he knows how to be false." ”

"That's good." Zhang Zhao nodded and reminded again: "Regarding Gongjin's arrangement, please consider it carefully, don't let him feel guilty."

"Zibu, don't worry, I know it in my heart." Sun Quan has succeeded to the throne for half a year, and he has mastered the tricks and checks and balances, especially against Sun Fu's trick, he thinks it is so wonderful that it can be used repeatedly.

Two days later, Sun Quan worshiped Zhou Yu as the governor of the capital, commanded the soldiers and horses of the Jiangdong tribes, and was responsible for suppressing all rebellions in the territory.

Sun Quan's appointment means that Dantu's main force in Jiangdong is also under the command and dispatch of Zhou Yu, but Jiangdong's private military system model is destined to be a metropolitan governor, and the scope of command is also limited.

Even if Zhou Yu was the governor of the capital, he still couldn't command the tribes of the Sun clan and relatives, such as Sun Ben, Sun He, Sun Yi, Xu Kun, and Wu Jing; He also couldn't command Sun Quan's direct subordinates, that is, Yuan Shu, who was used to fight Lujiang, but he had more power than when he was in the middle of the army.

Sun Quan put a burden on Zhou Yu, and his sense of responsibility made him quickly devote himself to counterinsurgency, and he no longer cared about his 'rival in love' Long Xiang.

Jiangdong did not send people to supervise, so Long Xiang organized personnel to open firepower, and from February onwards, it was in full swing, especially in the upper reaches of the water application.

Spring returns to the earth, the craftsmen in Hefei City perform their duties, and the farmers on both sides of the water supply are busy with spring plowing and sowing; Each construction site of Hefei New Town is pouring rubble concrete foundations, so that there is no fear of the city wall being blistered in the future; Since the foundation of the new city has been excavated, the tools that have been 'misappropriated' have returned to the Shiqi Canal project, so the channel excavation has also entered the stage of force.

In mid-February, Long Xiang went to inspect the Shiqi Canal project, and it rained lightly shortly after arriving. In early spring, the temperature is not high, and working in the rain is easy to get cold, and it is also easy to cause diseases.

Because of the incomplete medical treatment in Hefei, Long Xiang strictly ordered the suspension of work during the rain, so when the rain fell, the people who worked returned to the temporary shed to take shelter from the rain.

Long Xiang was also accompanied by Lei Xu and walked to the nearby shed. The spring rain was dripping, and the vision ahead was gradually blurred, and Long Xiang faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves.

Following the prestige, I saw two people riding two horses, running wildly in the rain. Lei Xu pointed to the person who came and reminded loudly: "General, it seems to be General Zhang and General Xu."
