Chapter 280: He still has to thank us

This line was so familiar that Liu Chan knew what he was going to say next as soon as he heard it.

Whenever you have a request from others, and you don't want others to look down on you, resulting in falling into a disadvantage in the negotiation, you always have to make such a move.

Lao Liu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "The widow sits here, there are elite soldiers, wise men and ministers, and there are mountains and dangers outside. But I don't know where the danger is? Hahaha......"

Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng smiled silently, quietly waiting for Zhang Wen to perform.

They didn't intend to expose each other as soon as they came up, and the two naturally knew the purpose of this person's coming west, and they were also happy to see the union with Jiangdong come to fruition.

Although Sun Quan has been behind his back several times and is not a reliable ally, if he fights with Cao Wei, then everything will be different.

"The king's words are wrong." Zhang Wen said unhurriedly, "Don't you hear the "Book" that says: Be prepared for danger in times of peace, be prepared when you think, and be prepared?" ”

Liu Bei was silent, waiting for his next step.

Zhang Wenyao pointed to the north: "Now that Cao thief usurped the Han Dynasty and became emperor, the 400-year-old state of the Han family came to an end...... It really makes us wait for the ministers of the Han family, and our hearts are like knives! ”

Speaking of this, Lao Liu's sad and angry color appeared slightly, and he was obviously aroused again.

Seeing this, Zhang Wen immediately struck while the iron was hot, and arched his hand: "The king is eloquent and strategic, and as the Liu Han clan, at the time of this national crisis, he should hold high the banner of righteousness and lead the world to fight the Cao thief against the Han people!"

"How can you sit back and watch the thief grow in the southwest? If its country is stable, how long can the king support it with the dangerous mountains and majestic passes? In this world, sooner or later, there will be no more Han land! Isn't this dangerous?

"Wen is here to help the king turn the corner!"

"This ......" Lao Liu was enthusiastic for a while, and he planned to go on a northern expedition as soon as possible, which coincided with what Zhang Wen said, and he wanted to say yes when he opened his mouth.

"Hahahaha!" Fa Zheng suddenly burst out laughing, and he leaned back and fell back with laughter, slightly out of place.

Lao Liu was attracted by the laughter, swallowed the words back to his mouth, and said strangely: "Why is Xiaozhi laughing? ”

Fa just couldn't hold back his laughter, and arched his hand and said: "King, isn't it ridiculous that a dying man wants to rescue a strong man?" ”

After saying that, he got up, looked Zhang Wen up and down, and then said with a smile: "I heard that the relationship between Wei and Wu has been tense recently, and Zhang Zhonglang came to my Chengdu at this time to lobby the king to raise troops...... Hehe, but does Cao Pi want to kill Wu? ”

Fa Zheng suddenly accentuated his tone, and pointed at Zhang Wen a little, which immediately made the other party's heart chuckle for a moment, and his face showed a panicked look.

Although Zhang Wen adjusted his expression in time to cover it up, he finally exposed his heart.

Liu Chan looked at Zhang Wen, who was broken by Fa Zheng's words, and was relieved, although this person was a little bold and talented, compared with Fa Zheng and other people who had more holes in their hearts than a beehive, the heat was still too bad.

Zhang Wen suppressed the panic in his heart, and did not deny Cao Pi's plan to attack Wu, this kind of thing people dare to say, naturally there are reliable sources, and denying it will only appear to be insincere.

"Cao Wei was powerful, and King Wu was forced by his power to protect the people of Jiangdong, so he had to pretend to be a minister. However, after all, my heart is towards the Han family, and Cao Pi naturally can't wait for me. Zhang Wen's face was not red, and his heart was not beating, and he put gold on Sun Quan's face.

Fa Zheng sneered: "Hehe, since you have a request for the king, why bother to make a fool of yourself, so insincere, how can we rest assured?" ”

Zhang Wen said: "If Jiangdong is occupied by Cao Wei, Bashu and Hanzhong's Xiongguan dangerous mountains will be useless, and the king of Hanzhong will not be in danger at that time?" How can it be tricky? ”

Fa Zheng wanted to say more, Zhuge Liang had already stood up and persuaded him: "Huh~ filial piety, what Zhang Zhonglang said is also reasonable." Now that Cao Wei is powerful, I will benefit from Jiangdong and fight with both sides, so why bother? ”

"Kong Ming, it's not that I'm forced to speak. It's just that King Wu is obviously afraid that Cao Pi will attack Wu and wants to ask the king, but he says something to rescue, which is really insincere. Fa Zheng waved his sleeves, looking very angry.

"Huh~ I have had a lot of contact with Zhang Zhonglang before, if King Wu is really not sincere, with Zhang Zhonglang's character, he will not agree to come to lobby." Zhuge Liang said and looked at Zhang Wen with a smile.

Zhang Wen also looked at Zhuge Liang with a moved face.

Last time he was in Bashu, he was taken care of by Zhuge Liang, and he was very impressed by his noble conduct, profound knowledge, and extraordinary wisdom for his dedication to the public.

At this moment, hearing the words of Zhuge Military Master, it was as dazzling as a beam of light in the darkness.

Those who know me, Zhuge military advisor also!

"Yes, King Wu sent me this time because he really wanted to join forces with the King of Hanzhong to fight against Cao, and this sincerity can be learned!" Zhang Wen pointed out the hall behind him again, "King Wu has specially prepared a generous gift to the King of Hanzhong to show his sincerity." ”

was so excited that Zhang Wen didn't mention who saved who was in danger, and told the truth.

Sun Quan's advice before leaving was pulled by this set of white faces and red faces, and his emotions had been left behind by him......

"Hehe, since my Northern Expedition in Jingzhou before, King Wu has sent a lot of 'generous gifts'." Liu Chan said in his words, "Does Lone still have to say 'generous thanks' to King Wu?" ”

Zhang Wen naturally couldn't understand this cross-language homophonic stalk, but Liu Chan's tone was not good, and he could understand the meaning of the words.

Zhang Wen couldn't help but secretly say that it was dangerous, fortunately he had expected this before he came, and hurriedly said: "Prince, the matter of Jingzhou has been concluded in the public security, and at this time, the enemy is current, and I hope that the prince will focus on the overall situation."

"As for other things, King Wu has also made arrangements, and presumably he will give an explanation to King Hanzhong in the near future."

It is impossible to admit the matter in Nanzhong on the surface, and once it is admitted, it will be a great blow to the reputation of Jiangdong and even Sun Quan.

can only be explained in a tacit way by both parties.

Liu Chan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Liu Bei, both father and son were a little incredible.

can also see the heat in the eyes of the other party.

Sun Quan would actually compromise on the affairs of Nanzhong, which they never expected.

It seems that the situation is more urgent than Liu Chan's previous speculation, if Sun Quan hadn't judged that Cao Pi would definitely send troops, and he would have to pull Lao Liu to carry it with him no matter what, he would never have been responsible for the Nanzhong Rebellion.

Liu Chan deliberately mentioned it, but in fact, he just wanted his family to gain a higher status in the future alliance.

However, Lao Liu has been tested for a long time, so he will naturally not easily show his hole cards.

He twisted his beard and muttered: "Even so, the stakes are very important to raise the army, and it will take time to consider, Zhang Zhonglang might as well stay for a while and wait for the widow to discuss." ”

"Yes." Zhang Wen bowed his hand respectfully.

For such a big matter, he didn't think that he could get a clear answer in a few words, at least today Liu Bei didn't directly reject him.

As a result of the first meeting, he was already satisfied.

After Zhang Wen stepped down, Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng, who were originally smiling and gentle, and slightly resentful, glanced at each other, and suddenly laughed in unison.

They turned to Liu Bei at the same time, and said in unison: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king!" ”

Liu Bei naturally saw this God-given opportunity, and said with a smile at this time: "Cao Pi chose to cut down Wu at this time, and God helped me!" The preparations for the Northern Expedition must not be sloppy, and this time we will definitely win again! ”

The old opponent is really different, he believes that if the north is still Cao Mengde in charge of the overall situation, he will definitely not make such a stupid move.

"Yes." All the ministers bowed down and bowed their hands, all with happy faces.

Liu Chan also smiled: "This time, Sun Quan not only shared a lot of pressure for us, but we can also take the opportunity to knock on him when he asks me, and he will have to thank us then." ”

"Hahaha." This sentence obviously spoke to Lao Liu's heart, and he laughed heartily.

"This is the destiny of heaven in Liu, not in Cao Ye. Yes? Hahaha...... "Fa Zheng said, and the air in the hall became cheerful again......
