Chapter 448: Trying to Wear New Clothes
Mrs. Xu is the daughter of her cousin Xu Kun, and she first married Lu Shang (Lu Xun's brother).
It's a pity that Lu Shang died early, and the Xu family was young and widowed.
At that time, Sun Ce was assassinated and died, and Sun Quan's succession to the throne was politically unstable.
In order to consolidate the situation, Mrs. Wu made the decision to let Sun Quan marry Xu, and wanted to make his wife, Mrs. Xie, subordinate to her.
Mrs. Xie was born in a famous family, and her father Xie Xuan was Shang Shulang and the county magistrate of Xu County, she refused to suffer this humiliation, but she was afraid of the Sun family, and she could no longer sit firmly in the position of wife.
Faced with the deliberate estrangement of Mrs. Wu and Sun Quan, Mrs. Xie was finally depressed and died in less than a year.
Sun Quan married Mrs. Xu out of a political marriage, but he did not have much affection for this cousin and niece, and the lord of a young man like him, who had enjoyed endless beauty, offered Xu as a statue at home.
In order to completely grasp Yuan Shu's political legacy, Sun Quan also accepted Yuan Shu's daughter as a concubine two years ago, and also got the approval of his maternal uncle Xu Kun.
Sun Quan cultivated Lü Meng, Ling Tong, and He Qi, and planned to master the army by wooing Zhu Huan; Although Zhang Zhao, the head of the civil ministers, was loyal, he was not liked by Sun Quan because of his uprightness.
Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu are both leaders of the Huaisi faction, but they are outsiders to the local scholars, and outsiders and locals often clash over interests, so they can't help but huddle together for warmth.
As the Sun clan occupied Jiangdong for a longer time, the Huaisi faction that fought the world with Sun Ce spread all over the country, and its tentacles extended to the large and small yamen of various counties and counties.
Although outsiders occupy key positions, because of the large base and wide connections of the locals, it is easy for the adjutant and officials to join forces to overthrow the chief officer, and the internal struggle has not stopped for a moment, depending on which side has the most powerful means.
Zhang Zhao is skilled in politics, and Sun Cetuo likes to cultivate his fellow villagers after he is alone.
In the past few years, Zhang Zhao has successively recommended Sun Quan, Zhuge Jin, Buqi, Yan Jian and other young capable ministers.
As the lord of Jiangdong, Sun Quan naturally wanted to grasp the military and politics with one hand.
Even though Zhang Zhao was loyal to him, Sun Quan couldn't forget that he had supported Sun Yi.
Therefore, Sun Quan secretly cultivated Zhuge Jin and others to fight with Zhang Zhao like he cultivated Lu Meng and Ling Tong, and cultivated henchmen who were absolutely loyal to him.
In contact with a group of young people recommended by Zhang Zhao, Sun Quan unexpectedly learned that the daughter of Buqi's clan was young and beautiful, so he had a plan to recruit a new lady.
Like the purpose of the daughter of Na Yuan Shu, Nabu Trainer is more for political purposes.
Mrs. Wu's mourning period is less than a year, Sun Quan can't be anxious if he has a mind, Xu is nominally his wife, and he needs to inform him if he takes a concubine.
The Xu family was born delicate and jealous by nature, and Sun Quan was quite cold to Xu Kun after his death, and if he wanted to recruit a step trainer, he needed to blow the wind in advance.
Not surprisingly, as soon as the news reached the Xu family's courtyard, it attracted many complaints.
Adjectives such as lustful and Bo Xing, Sun Quan didn't care about it.
However, the Xu family actually attributed the defeat of Yuzhang and the death of Xu Kun to Sun Quan, believing that the logistics supply was not in place at that time, which led to the defeat of Jiangdong soldiers to Huang Zu.
Sun Quan was furious, and summoned the general Zhou Shanqi to ask: "Madame has never talked about military politics, and there has been a lot of discussion in her courtyard recently, do you know why?" ”
Zhou Shan bowed his head and replied: "Back to the lord, the lady held a banquet on her birthday last month, and many officials and wives in the city came to congratulate them, and everyone drank some wine that day, which is estimated to be influenced by her."
"Who are they?"
Sun Quan remembered that he was chatting with Buqi about county affairs at that time, and he didn't take the time to congratulate Xu's birthday, otherwise he would have known the reason.
"The last general will remember that there are Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Jiang, and Mrs. Lu"
Zhou Shan swallowed, and then snapped his fingers and said seven or eight names.
Sun Quan's originally locked brows, after hearing this, stood tall and huddled together, and said in his heart, why are they all the wives of generals in the army? Could it be that this group of martial artists has some plans that can't be achieved?
"I'll give you half a day to find out what was said at the banquet, and if you can't do it, you can go back to your hometown and farm."
"Don't worry, my lord, the end will be done, definitely."
In order to keep his job, Zhou Shan returned to Xu's residence very quickly, inquired about the maids who served that day one by one, and soon asked the beginning and end of the banquet.
Most of the people who went to congratulate were the wives of military attachés, and Xu's topic has always been close to Xu Kun, like Xianglin's sister-in-law, who said that her father had contributed to Jiangdong, and after drinking two glasses of wine, she complained about Zhou Yu's division of troops, so Xu Kun was shot in the sea dusk.
Zhou Yu's wife Bao was originally low-key at the banquet, but when she encountered Xu's jumping face to herself, she still stood up to defend Zhou Yu after several endurances, and bluntly said that the soldiers who went out at that time were thinly dressed, and because the winter clothes in the rear had not been transported to the front line, they fought hard with Huang Zu's main force.
Bao's heart is also very depressed, his own man has done his best for Sun's family, and he hasn't returned home for more than a year, how can he end up being complained about?
Bao's words were sincere, reasonable, and well-founded, and many family members agreed with them at the scene, and they all explained to Xu that they lacked clothes and wore less clothes last year.
Xu originally just complained a few words, but as a result, he blamed Sun Quan's head.
The topic of clothing did not end with the end of the banquet, and the maids in the Xu courtyard were idle and chattered about it.
This group of little girls who don't understand military politics discussed from clothes to logistics during their work, discussed how much Sun Ben lost in Yuzhang, and then talked about who would use soldiers.
Zhou Shan found out the situation and reported to Sun Quan in time, Sun Quan heard that his heart was nameless, and he said in his heart that the good reputation was occupied by the governor of the capital, but anyone who lost the battle was someone else, right?
And some people began to sympathize with Sun Ben, which is a very bad sign.
Sun Quan pondered for a long time and thought of a plan.
"From today onwards, your captain of the guard will stop doing it."
"Lord, the last general has completed the task, don't drive me to farm"
Seeing that Zhou Shan misunderstood himself, Sun Quan waved his hand to correct: "I didn't say that I drove you to farm, I have a new task for you." ”
"Please let the Lord know." Zhou Shan was overjoyed to hear it.
Sun Quan stroked his purple beard, half-squinted his eyes and said, "I will have people rush to make robes when I go back, and your task is to send them to the Grand Governor." ”
"Oh," Zhou Shan asked, "When will the last general leave?" ”
Sun Quan raised his head and thought for a while: "It takes more than ten days for Wu Jun to go back and forth from Chaisang, and you will keep sending it to the Metropolitan Governor twice a month." ”
"Monthly? Two trips? The"
Zhou Shan swallowed his saliva; There was an unintelligible look on his face.
Sun Quan sneered and explained, "Didn't they say that Yuzhang's failure was due to the lack of timely supplies and lack of winter clothes? I can't make clothes for the whole army, but there is no problem in satisfying the Metropolitan Governor alone, you can send it all year round and every month, and the Metropolitan Governor will do his best for me Jiangdong, and I will let him wear new clothes every day. ”
"The last general can be saved." Zhou Shan hugged his fists and agreed.
Sun Quan waved his hand to Zhou Shanzhao again, and whispered: "You will often go to Chaisang to deliver clothes in the future, and remember to have a good relationship with the attendants and entourage of the Grand Governor, so that you can do things with ease." ”
"The last general will live up to the high expectations of the lord."
Zhou Yu held the male army at this time, and he was in charge of the Jiangdong military power after Xu Kun's death, which was a serious threat to Sun Quan, and it would be very difficult to contain once he had dissent.
For the sake of the stability of his regime, Sun Quan threw out one small trick after another.
