There seemed to be a little silence in the tent.

Li Er secretly glanced at Zhang Liao, carrying a raw leg of mutton, Zhang Liao, who was instructing Xiaolang how to make a fire, was in a trance, looked left and right, and lowered his head again.

"I went down the river." Zhang Liao said suddenly.

…… She scratched her head.

Lu Bai looked at her, then looked back at Zhang Liao, and then turned his head to look at her.

"Sister, I mean Jiangdong sent an envoy to ask for the title of Marquis of Wu, what is Sister talking about?"

Chapter 604

Jiangdong sent an envoy to please seal Wu Hou.

Although it seems a bit strange for a courtier to ask the Son of Heaven for a knighthood under normal circumstances, it is not a normal situation after all, and after experiencing the challenge of Yuan Shu, who openly called the Zhong family, the imperial court is actually very tolerant of this.

But at the same time as asking for the title of Marquis of Wu, Zhang He sent a letter: Qu'a, which is across the river, there are fishermen who have seen traces of dispatching troops.

Lonely evidence does not stand, Zhang He, who is bent on making meritorious contributions, has checked in many ways, Wu Di is more mountainous and more bandits, will those soldiers go to suppress Shanyue?

Soon, a merchant from the Chaisang department went down the river to the east to bring news, saying that there was a naval drill in Poyang Lake, and the military appearance was neat, which was daunting.

But this is still not enough to prove what Jiangdong has planned, especially since Liu Bei has just finished a big war, and anyone who starts the war lightly will be attacked by a group.

What made Liu Bei finally suspicious of Jiangdong was Liu Biao's letter.

As we all know, because of Sun Jian's death, the Sun Ce brothers had a great enmity with Liu Biao in Jingzhou, and even had a very cold attitude towards the entire Jingzhou Shi clan.

But recently, Sun Quan not only sent an envoy to Xiapi, but also quietly sent an envoy to Jingzhou, and gave Cai Mao a generous gift, wanting to ease relations with Liu Biao.

The death of his father is said to slow down the cheeks, this amount of gas is not something that ordinary people can imagine, and the opposite side is not the stupid white sweet Liu Xun, but the scheming Liu Biao, who will naturally be suspicious.

Does Sun Quan really want to belong to the imperial court?

This question was raised in the court, and soon some courtiers gave their opinions: A loyal Hanchen will not refuse the summons of the Son of Heaven, and the next edict will let him come to Xiapi.

But immediately some people objected: if Sun Quan had the idea of rebellion and did not have the courage to rebel, the edict would only startle the snake, making him think that he could only raise an army.

As soon as the army was mentioned, someone glanced at Lu Lian, Marquis of Leling.

…… Lu Lian lowered his head and slept soundly.

Look at Yang Biao again.

Yang Biao also looked at Lu Lian, and then shook his head slightly.

Whether in terms of size or politics, Jiangdong could not compete with the imperial court, and in terms of military level, it was a world of difference. Sun Ce is good at fighting, but he is the best at water warfare, he conquered Hefei back then, and was beaten back into the water by Lu Lian in less than ten days, which can be called a big hate in Sun Ce's life.

If Jiangdong Sun Lang is still alive, revenge may not be known.

But he is no longer here, leaving behind a Sun Quan who has just turned eighteen years old this year, under the shadow of his father and brother, and has obtained the foundation of Jiangdong, if he can defend Jiangdong in the difficult situation of many families, it is not easy, if he still wants to defeat Lu Lian in the war, unless he is the son of the plane of two hands and a meteorite falling from the sky.

Although it is not clear for the time being what Jiangdong's attitude of being polite on the surface and making small moves behind the scenes is, there is no need to involve Lu Lian. She is already a county marquis, and there is no seal, even if she really wants to fight with Jiangdong, she doesn't have to be the master, leading to a bunch of troubles in the court that are difficult to clean up.

Under the incomprehensible gaze of the court officials, Yang Biao touched his snow-white beard incomprehensibly.

If she wants to sleep in the court, let her sleep, you see that she doesn't say a word when she sleeps, and she doesn't make a sound when she snores, it's very decent! A general who obviously has the capital to be arrogant and domineering, and to cause chaos in the dynasty, did not say a word when he went to the court, and slept silently, this is not a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, what is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty!

It was enough for her to sit there and snore.

Snoring, proving that she is still alive.

What does it mean to be a living Lu Lian?

Let Sun Zhongmou and the group of Jiangdong families around him weigh it themselves, the court doesn't care about them anymore.

Liu Bei also turned his head and glanced at Lu Lian.

Hands are itchy.

He did not agree entirely with the imperial court.

Although these ministers closed the city gates and loved to intrigue, they did not have a strong and clear sense of war, nor could they perceive the importance of timing.

In the eyes of the courtiers, as long as Jiangdong does not rebel openly, it is fine, but in Liu Bei's opinion, it is far from enough.

The previous Jia Xu used a trick to get rid of Sun Ce, and temporarily stopped the idea of fighting for hegemony in the Central Plains in the northeast of the Yangtze River, but now it is only a few years, and the behavior of asking Wu Hou on the surface and secretly fighting hard means that Sun Quan has completed the integration of the inheritance left by his brother?

Timing is an extremely important thing, but not the whole story. If Sun Quan really had the strength to fight again, but he did not make a move, waiting for the opportunity to move, how would Liu Bei go north to defeat the Yuan clan in the future, and then reinvigorate the Yan Han Dynasty?

He needed an open negotiation, and he needed to get clearer and more unambiguous answers, including what was the attitude of the influential people in Jiangdong, Sun Quan's position and his views, the number of troops in Jiangdong, the level of warfare, and the answers summarized by all this information: whether he could rest and recuperate in peace, and wait until the Yuan clan fought until the army and the people were exhausted, and then he could make a profit, or whether he had to take advantage of the Yuan brothers in Hebei to completely solve Jiangdong.

…… But if you have to solve it, how do you solve it?

Lu Hangyu sat cross-legged and sat intently in front of the leg of lamb.

There is a gray-black tanuki that has been hovering around for a long time, eyeing it fiercely. Looking at its smooth fur and vicious eyes, she intuitively thought that it was an opponent worth fighting, so she even missed a few words of what Lu Bai was saying.

"The imperial court wants to send an envoy to Koto-"

She silently turned her leg of mutton.

"Let's take a look at what Sun Ce is capable of now."

The leg of lamb silently exudes its aroma.

"That Sun Quan is just-"

Hearing this name, her whole person seemed to be stunned for a moment, frowning and looking at Lu Bai, just when she wanted to say something, the raccoon dog suddenly took off!

Bang!

She threw her fist!

Cao Zhi and Ah Cao, who were wrapped in blankets, looked at her in a daze.

The raccoon ran frantically with its tail between its legs, interspersed with two cooing curses.

She didn't care, rubbing her nose.

"The leg of lamb is ready," she asked, "is there any wine?" ”

There was a very clear wine that fell from the middle of the air and fell into the bronze knight.

It must have been a wine that had been sifted several times, and it was cold with a luscious aroma.

- very flattering to him.

He doesn't like incense, he only has the smell of grease wiped with iron, and he is wet with blood, he is only in his twenties, but he is more thoroughly infiltrated than many veterans who have fought on the battlefield for twenty years.

But his appearance is so beautiful, as long as the girl sees his demeanor from afar, she naturally feels the fragrance like fine wine.

Shangsi arrived again, and the riverside was much deserted.

He can no longer ride out of the city, attracting the admiring eyes of countless girls.

His demeanor will be forgotten by amorous and ruthless girls, and his deeds will be abandoned by those families.

But there are still people who remember him.

Remember what a lovely friend he was.

After sitting in front of Sun Ce's tomb for a long time, this close friend took out another piano and played it slowly.

He seemed to be in a deep state of distress, which he could not tell to others, but only to him.

"Zhang Zibu wants to vote for Liu Bei."

He said this nonchalantly, and then paused.

"But you value him so much, maybe I'm wrong to blame him."

His friend was silent, quietly listening to the sound of the piano.

"The general is smart, and the weak crown has the ability to see and know how to change, and the Jiangdong family has gradually become convinced."

A girl ran by with a paper kite in the distance, and as if she heard the sound of the piano, she stopped and looked this way.

"If everyone is of the same heart with me, maybe you can keep your foundation, and when the soldiers and horses are well trained, and you will fight the world with Liu Bei, it is unknown."

After he said this, he seemed to feel a little ridiculous, and the sound of the piano turned a corner, and even he himself was amused.

"It's just, how can I beat Lu Lian?"

The girl stared at him curiously, looking very surprised.

- That's also a handsome and extraordinary Lang Jun, looking at his simple and fine clothes, looking at the horses grazing with their heads bowed on the side, no matter how you look at it, he is a person of considerable status.

If he was troubled by a girl from any family, she must tell him that it was not necessary, for who would not be moved by such a melancholy brow?

But he was really distressed by a girl.

She has an iron heart and will not be shaken by the gentle spring breeze of Jiangdong, and the people of Jiangdong whispered that when she opened her eyes and led the army south, the Yangtze River could not stop her steps.

Some people sing, and some people respond.

The stream was stirred up a little muddy, and in a moment it became clear again.

She put the flask down and shook it, and someone took it from her hand.

"Haven't you ever been drunk?" Zhang Liao asked.

This wine was a far cry from the wine she was familiar with in later life, not so much wine as wine mash, and the degree was so low that it was difficult to get drunk.

She thought for a moment and said quite frankly, "It may be a little, but not much." ”

"How boring would it be to drink on a day like this?"

Lu Hangyu looked at him a little stunned, "Then what should I do?" ”

This question seems to stump Zhang Liao.

He had a proposal in his heart, but he just couldn't say it, so he choked there and couldn't get up for a long time.

"It's good to find five friends," he said, "and you have an old friend, if you can invite me to talk about it." ”

"The two of us went our separate ways." She said.

Zhang Liao picked up a bean and stuffed it into his mouth, "I and Wen Hou are the same, but I still go to talk to him from time to time." ”

"It's not very talkative."
