As a political leader, Sun Quan's obedience and listening are the basic qualities.

But he pretended to be stupid twice in front of Mrs. Wu, and temporarily trampled the quality of a political leader under his feet.

As the saying goes, again and again, Sun Quan knows that the next time he doesn't express his position, maybe it will rise to the level of filial piety.

Recently, Mrs. Wu often mentioned Sun Ce's last words: ask Zhou Yu if you don't decide on foreign affairs, and ask Zhang Zhao if you don't decide on internal affairs.

Sun Quan looked at the ministers in the court, and only Zhang Zhao could balance Zhou Yu.

Although Zhang Zhao once supported Sun Yi, Sun Quan had no choice at this time.

One day in July, Sun Quan left Zhang Zhao after the dispersal of duty.

Sun Quan took all the attendants away, leaving only the master and servant in the back hall.

In the middle of summer, the doors and windows are closed.

Zhang Zhao kept wiping his sweat with his sleeves, he knew Sun Quan's intentions, but as a mature politician, he knew that silence was gold at this time.

The first battle of Huainan was won and defeated.

The key is the two teams of Wu Jing and Zhou Yu.

But it was Wu Jing who was beaten, it was Zhou Yu Xiaosheng who regained face, and it was Zhou Yu who forced Cao Cao away.

No matter who commanded Yuan Shu's old department, Sun Quan was the commander of this team, and Wu Jing was only the general in charge of execution, so it was difficult for Sun Quan to get rid of the pot.

At this time, Zhou Yu was in full swing, and even Mrs. Wu was willing to give him a platform, and Zhang Zhao asked himself if he couldn't compete at this time.

Seeing that Zhang Zhao didn't speak for a long time, Sun Quan finally couldn't stand the stuffiness, came to Zhang Zhao's case and sat down cross-legged, and moved out Sun Ce's last words in the first sentence.

"Gong Zhang, do you remember my brother's deathbed entrustment?"

"Zhao never dares to forget."

Zhang Zhao's face was sincere, but Sun Ce's sentence 'If Zhongmou does not do anything, you will take it yourself', he still rots in his heart and dare not say it.

Because Sun Quan succeeded to the throne until now, he still respects himself, on the contrary, Zhou Yu led the troops to be a strong Qinwang, just under the banner of supporting Sun Quan.

If he took the liberty of taking out his last words and replaced Sun Quan with Sun Yi or Sun Kuang, he was afraid that Zhou Yu would not be able to pass that level, and it would cause turmoil in Jiangdong at that time.

Sun Quan stared at Zhang Zhao and bowed slightly: "It's good that Gong Zhang remembers, I still have to rely on you, at present, the generals of Danyang Taishou and Huainan are undecided, these two appointments are both foreign affairs and internal affairs, why don't you see Zhang Gong say a word?" ”

Zhang Zhao explained: "Guangdehou has the merits of the Kelujiang River, and now he is recommended by the governor of the capital, and the third prince is recognized by the ministers, I think they are all competent, I don't know why the lord hesitates?" ”

"I also know that they can do it, but my mother's health is deteriorating, and there is not much time left, I want to leave Shubi (Sun Yi) at home to do his filial piety, he is still young anyway, and he will have the opportunity to show his strength in the future."

In order to persuade Zhang Zhao, Sun Quan had already prepared a reason that he could not refuse, and then continued to add: "My uncle's prestige in Danyang is very high, and it is his credit to drive away Yuan Yin before, and he is the best candidate to serve as the Taishou of Danyang.

"If Guangdehou is allowed to take over Danyang, I don't know who the lord plans to send to Huainan? Since the third prince wants to be filial at home, he can't keep him guarding, right? Zhang Zhao took Sun Quan's words against the army.

Sun Quan replied: "Huainan, I still plan to hand it over to Bohai (Sun He), after all, he has been in Lujiang for so long, he must be familiar with it, and now he will wait for Cao Cao to give Zhang Liao an order."

Zhang Zhao frowned and shook his head: "Cao Cao is in a hurry to go back, it must be because of Yuan Shao's harassment, I'm afraid that he won't reply so quickly, and besides, the lord wants to get through with him with a few underwear, isn't it too child's play?" ”

"Everyone in the world knows that Cao Thief is lustful, those sets of underwear will be able to do what he likes, he sees the underwear sewn by the second bridge, maybe he will think about it, this is my plan to kill two birds with one stone." Sun Quan looked smug after speaking.

Zhang Zhao said bitterly: "Our army has just lost in Huainan, the lord should befriend Long Xiang, and it is right to contain Hefei, you use the name of his wife to deceive Cao Cao, how can Long Xiang rest?" ”

"It's none of my business, Erqiao sewed underwear by himself and sold it publicly in Yao Ji Trading House, ranging from 200,000 yuan to 1 million yuan, Long Xiang used his wife's reputation to make money, and it is understandable that I will sell it to Cao Cao."

Seeing that Sun Quan didn't think so, Zhang Zhao reminded earnestly: "But it can be sent to Shouchun is an ordinary model priced at 20,000 yuan, Long Xiang has neither a name nor a profit, and the lord has exaggerated the value, I think it is really a little inappropriate, I am really afraid of hurting Sun Bohai."

"How does Zhang Gong know that it is an ordinary model?" Sun Quan looked puzzled.

Zhang Zhao shook his head bitterly: "Since Yao Ji opened the store, the dignitaries and dignitaries of Wu County are all proud of buying underwear, and the dog has recently set a set of vassal elegance, and at that time, he asked the shopkeeper Yao a few words, and learned that no one has ordered Erqiao to sew those few now."

"Hiss, that's it."

Sun Quan gasped, and said in his heart that he was still careless, knowing that he was going to block Long Xiang's mouth, and he actually forgot that Wu Jun still had Yao Xuan, but this kind of deception can only be done once, so he didn't feel annoyed.

He gently tapped on the table in front of him, and explained confidently: "Zhang Gong rest assured, I understand that the rain and dew are all stained, when Zigang went to deliver underwear through Hefei, I asked him to meet Long Xiang, so that we can temporarily unify the caliber between us, and wait until Bohai is redeemed from Shouchun, and Ren Longxiang can talk back as much as he wants." ”

Zhang Zhao hurriedly asked: "What benefits did the lord promise Long Xiang?" ”

"I know that I can't hide it from Zhang Gong." Sun Quan smiled and said: "I recognize Long Xiang as the Taishou of Lujiang, anyway, Lujiang is now barren, and it is better to give him a name than to give money and food in kind." ”

Zhang Zhao frowned and brushed his beard, and muttered to himself: "Long Xiang was born in Qingping, he rarely suffers losses in his work, and the lord gives him a false name, and he actually agreed?" ”

Sun Quan replied: "Lujiang Taishou didn't say anything, which means that he wants this county guard in his heart, and he clearly agrees that he doesn't ask about underwear." ”

Zhang Zhao still stared at the gray eyebrows, and reminded: "I'm afraid that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will hold each other for too long, and there will always be no one to wear underwear to admire him on the front line. The lord should have an alternative plan. ”

Sun Quan heard what Zhang Zhao said, and suddenly leaned forward with both hands on the case.

"Could it be that Zhang Gong has a new candidate?"

"The lord has not yet become a father, I don't know how deeply parents care about their children, if the third son can be entrusted with important tasks, I believe the old lady will be more comfortable, and she will also feel the filial piety of the lord."

Zhang Zhao looked at Sun Quan meaningfully, and said in his heart I have already prompted it obviously, don't be stupid because of this matter, if you are named unfilial, you are afraid that the position of Wu Hou will be even more unstable.

"Gong Zhang's words are reasonable, since Uncle Bi is expected to return, I will let him govern Danyang, and there must be Lao Gong Zhang to go to the court, but."

Sun Quan made this decision with difficulty, he couldn't give in to both appointments, so he said toughly: "Since Shu Bi is appointed as the Taishou of Danyang, my uncle is still staying in the rear of Wu County, I originally wanted Bohai to stay in Huainan, but I am afraid that Cao Cao will not reply for a long time, and Zhang Gong must recommend a talent today." ”
