Chapter 145: Sun Quan's persuasion
Now that he has not met with Liu Xun after agreeing to surrender, Sun Quan can't help but feel a little worried.
Next to Sun Quan, there is also the company of his wife, and now it is only this lady who accompanies Sun Quan, which is already a good treatment. Of course, this person is not the future queen step trainer.
"General Sun, my lord is here. Please also move to the lobby. At this time, the guard who was one step ahead hurried to the courtyard and said to Sun Quan.
"Is it finally here" Sun Quan said to himself with a hint of apprehension, fear, and eagerness, a variety of complicated emotions were intertwined.
Finally, there is also a judgment on whether it is life or death.
"Husband." Mrs. Sun was mostly afraid, pulled Sun Quan's sleeve, and cried.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's safe." Sun Quan patted the back of his wife's hand, and then straightened his clothes, trying to make himself as crisp as possible, he didn't want others to see his jokes.
Today is nothing more than two situations, one is his death, obviously this probability is very low, after all, his sister Sun Shangxiang has married him, not to mention that he didn't say that he wanted his life before. The other is the good news that you can continue to live and have a better environment and a little freedom.
After finishing the tidying, Sun Quan strode forward and walked towards the hall without hesitation.
When Sun Quan came to the hall, he saw two people sitting in the hall, one of whom he was very familiar with, wasn't this his first minister Zhang Zhao?
Seeing this scene, Sun Quan was both sad and helpless in his heart. But then, he laughed at himself, he is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself, so why do he need to ask others for loyalty?
Soon, Sun Quan put away his thoughts. looked at Liu Xun, who was sitting on the side, that is, at the top position.
It was this man who took away his inheritance and put him under house arrest.
In the past, Sun Quangong dared to compete with Liu Xun, one of the reasons was because the Jiangdong waterway was dangerous, which was very difficult to overcome. The second is also self-confidence, he always feels that there is not much gap between his eldest brother and himself.
However, today, when I saw danger, I sat in the top position, whether it was the sitting posture, appearance, and momentum were very atmospheric, with both the grace of the superior and the majesty of the general.
Of course, he wouldn't know, but this was Liu Xun's usual pretending posture.
Now seeing Liu Xun who appeared as a winner, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of himself.
Sun Quan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
"Meet Liu Taishou," Sun Quan still raised his fist to say hello with mixed feelings.
"You're welcome." Liu Xun nodded.
In fact, he is also looking at Sun Quan, who is in a state of surrender, who will be praised by Cao Cao in the future as a son who should be like Sun Zhongmou. In fact, Sun Quan only inherited the property of his eldest brother, and with the full support of Zhou Yu, he stabilized Jiangdong. In Liu Xun's eyes, the gap between Sun Quan and his brother is still very far.
But no matter what, it is rare that he can not surrender in front of Cao Cao's army, and finally settle down.
Seeing Liu Xun reply, Sun Quan couldn't help but raise his fist again and said: "So far, I don't know how Taishou will deal with it." ”
"He Xiang had promised to protect Zhongmou's safety before, and now he naturally won't regret it. Zhongmou, please be relieved, I won't do anything to you. Now it's just going to arrange for Zhongmou to live in Lujiang. Seeing Sun Quan ask about his future, Liu Xun couldn't help but say with a pleasant face.
It is true that Sun Quan and Liu Xun will not be good, one is that Sun Quan has surrendered, and the other is because Sun Quan has no ability to lead the generals to rebel, after all, he is not as attractive as his brother Sun Ce, if it is Sun Ce who surrenders, Liu Xun will not be at ease anyway. Third, this Sun Quan is now his brother-in-law, no matter what, he is a relative, so there is no need to kill them all.
However, although Sun Quan is incapable, he still has some appeal in Jiangdong.
Liu Xun is not a fool, so naturally he will not let him stay in Huiji, but plans to arrange for him to go to the base camp Lujiang. Lujiang, Liu Xun's old base camp, is full of people and soldiers who are loyal to Liu Xun. Sun Quan went there, and he definitely couldn't afford to stir up any storms.
Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this, as if the shackles on his body had been removed. He was finally able to live a little free.
Sun Quan didn't think that Liu Xun was perfunctory to him, because with his current identity and status, Liu Xun didn't need to perfunctory him at all.
"Thank you for being generous." Sun Quan bowed to Liu Xun and said.
Zhang Zhao saw it in his eyes, couldn't help but close his eyes slightly, and sighed in his heart, "Zhongmou is really not a hero." ”
Liu Xun nodded, and accepted Sun Quan's worship with peace of mind. Immediately, he pondered for a moment and said: "This matter is settled, in fact, I came to seek Zhongmou because of one thing, and I want to ask you for help." ”
"Taishou, please give orders." Although Sun Quan already knew Liu Xun's intention in his heart, he still asked in a deep voice.
"Zhongmou's old department, Zhou Yu, and Lu Su have the style of the ancients, although they were captured by me, they are loyal. I want to accept him as a general, and I ask Zhongmou to help me. Liu Xun said very politely.
Sun Quan sighed when he heard this, his Wenchen was really not as dignified as the generals.
Then his eyes skimmed away to Zhang Zhao, who was silent on the side, and said in his heart: "I don't know how this Zhang Zhao's Confucianism was learned, don't you say that you are loyal to the monarch?" ”
Now that he heard that there were still Zhou Yu and the two who swore not to surrender, Sun Quan didn't expect that Zhou Yu and Lu Su had been captured for so long, and they could still hold on, and they were really loyal martyrs. Thinking of this, Sun Quan couldn't help but be moved. Sure enough, it is the wind that knows the strength of the grass, and the board knows the loyal ministers.
These two people are really loyal ministers, and it seems that they have not lost their lives.
For a long time, Sun's father and son have been entrenched in Jiangdong, and after they took over, there were also military generals who rebelled. Sun Quan was also very jealous of military generals before, so although he knew that Zhou Yu and Lu Su were both loyal and brave commanders, he didn't dare to say that he would hand over all the military power to them, but dispersed.
At this moment, Sun Quan couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart, ashamed. If it had been a little simpler, Zhou Yu had been used to control the soldiers and horses and train them, I am afraid that the outcome would not have been like this. blamed himself for being obsessed with ghosts at the beginning, and was afraid that Zhou Yu would snatch his position, so that now he has become a prisoner.
It's just that it's too late to say anything today, and how to save your life and freedom is the big thing.
Sun Quan knew about this, and he must help Liu Xun complete it, otherwise his free body would become confusing again.
"Please also ask the Taishou to arrange a meeting with the two governors below." Sun Quan bowed.
"Go and get the two generals." Liu Xun was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately turned his head and said to Zhang Zhao.
"No." Zhang Zhao promised, and immediately got up and walked out. Soon after, Lu Su and Zhou Yu were brought by Zhang Zhao.
Lu Su, Zhou Yu, these two are Liu Xun's very happy commanders, of course, the most important thing is Zhou Yu, Lu Su's level is more in diplomacy. But at this moment, these two people are really not the same, the black hair on Zhou Yu's head is the same as the head of a chicken nest, without any luster, where is there still half of what Zhou Lang should be.
Ben's very ruddy and handsome face is also very pale at the moment, and it looks very gloomy.
Lu Su is also the same complexion as Zhou Yu at the moment, his eyes are sunken, there is no spirit in his eyes, and he even has some white hair on his head, which is a short-lived ghost.
Looking at these two die-hard guys, Liu Xun only felt a pain in his head.
With their forced appearance, even if they surrender at that time, it is estimated that they will not be convinced, and if they are not convinced, they will have a lot of things on their minds, and they will die quickly. The lives of the two of them were not very long in history, especially Zhou Yu, who had the talent of heaven and earth, died young.
In such a situation, not only should Sun Quan be relieved of them, but it is estimated that he will have to write a letter to Jingzhou and find Hua Tuo to come over to take care of it. Let's see if we can live a few more years, and if you don't surrender, it's a different story. Liu Xun is likely to make his own side medicine for them.
Now to untie their knots, it depends on Sun Quan's ability.
It's really his grandmother's egg hurt, at the beginning, Liu Xun also used some means to subdue Tai Shici, but it was not unsuccessful.
At this time, Liu Xun admired Sun Quan a little in his heart. Although the level of combat is not very good, but the skill of the royal lord is pole-and-stick.
"Lord, why are you here?" When Zhang Zhao brought Zhou Yu and Lu Su to come, he didn't tell them who they wanted to meet. At this moment, seeing Sun Quan and Lu Su standing in the hall, Zhou Yu couldn't help but show surprise, happy that Sun Quan was still alive to see them. But then he showed a look of shame on his face, and in the end, he burst into tears and bowed down.
As a former commander of the army, he sat in Jiangdong, and was finally captured, and even the lord was arrested together. The two of them really felt embarrassed in their hearts. Now that I see the lord again, I am naturally so shaped.
"Lord, the two of us are really ashamed of their trust in the lord." Lu Su burst into tears and said.
"Zi respectfully, Gong Jin, please get up." Sun Quan was inexplicably moved when he heard this, and hurriedly helped Zhou Yu and Lu Su up.
After helping Zhou Yu and Lu Su, Sun Quan turned his head to Liu Xun and asked, "Can Taishou let Zai Xia talk alone with the two of you for a while, so as to untie the knot." ”
Liu Xun's eyes couldn't help but flicker when he heard this, there is no way, if you want to surrender others, you have to be generous. In the end, he nodded and said to Zhang Zhao: "Zibu, let's step back first." ”
"No." Zhang Zhao promised when he heard this, and immediately followed Liu Xun down. Before leaving, Sun Quan gave Liu Xun a grateful look.
"Lord, just let the old lord and the general get along alone, will anything happen during this period?" Wang Hao, who was sitting next to Liu Xun, couldn't help but ask after all, even a rough person like him, who was not sensitive to politics, felt that this matter was inappropriate.
"Alas, maybe, but Sun Quan is okay to defend the city, if he wants to start a career, he definitely doesn't have the ability. If I can beat him once, I can beat him a second time. And in other words, even if they conspire, what can they do, do they have soldiers and food? Jiangdong has nothing but the three of them, so what is this afraid of Ben Taishou? In the end, Liu Xun said with a smile.
