Chapter 415 Zhuge Liang's tongue fights against his opponent
After Zhuge Jin told Zhuge Liang the actual situation of Jiangdong, he said worriedly, "Kong Ming, at this time, Sun Hou is sending people to search for your traces around Jiangxia County and Chibi Ferry... Hey, now, you visit Sun Hou on behalf of Liu Bei. Isn't that a trap? ..."
Zhuge Liang didn't think so. He shook his fan and whispered to Zhuge Jin, "Brother, it's reasonable for Sunhou to hate Uncle Liu, but this does not mean that Sunhou does not have the possibility of alliance with Uncle Liu... According to Liang's speculation, there are also many benevolent people around Sunhou who suggest that Sun Hou resist Cao Cao, right? ...For example, Zhou Yu, the governor of the Jiangdong Water Dragon Army! If Zhou Yu is not the main war party, he will inform Sun as soon as he learns the whereabouts of Uncle Liu, and even directly lead Jiangdong soldiers into the mountains to encircle and suppress Uncle Liu and his army without even waiting for Sun Hou's order..."
Zhuge Jin was inspired when he heard Zhuge Liang's unique remarks and seemed to think of something. He almost muttered to himself, "Oh, that's right. There are indeed some people in Jiangdong Group who suggest that Sun Hou relies on the Yangtze River to fight against Cao Cao, such as Ganning, the governor of Jiangxia County... The attitude of Huiji County is not clear at present..."
At this time, Tai Shici's official position was deprived. Only the rank and treatment of the general are retained. Even so, Lu Jing, who presided over various affairs in Huiji County at this time, did not dare to express his position casually, because Taishi Cihui did not recognize his relatives and turned ruthlessly. At the beginning, Tai Shici even dared to kill Sunhou's cousin in public!
Zhuge Liang saw that his brother's position and attitude had also changed, and his confidence was more sufficient. Zhuge Liang firmly believes that there is nothing difficult in the world, only for those who have intentions. Through a conversation with his brother Zhuge Jin, he basically figured out the current situation of Jiangdong Group. The result was gratifying to him that the current situation of Jiangdong Group was not as expected - the whole group was afraid of Cao Cao. After all, there are still some brave generals who are not afraid of Cao Cao.
Zhuge Liang said goodbye to Zhuge Jin and returned to the post station. At this time, the veteran Cheng Pu was still waiting for him in the room. Cheng Pu calmly told him: Mr. Zhuge, Sun Hou promised to meet you tomorrow... I hope you are well prepared to fight against some civilian generals who tend to surrender to Cao Cao...
Cheng Pu's attitude told Zhuge Liang that he was the main war faction, not the capitulation faction. Zhuge Liang showed gratitude and bowed to Cheng Pu. Cheng Pu smiled and then turned around and left Zhuge Liang's room.
Zhuge Liang didn't rest like a normal person. He was meditated. For monks, meditation is rest. The next day, I just had breakfast. Accompanied by the veteran Cheng Pu, Zhuge Liangjiu went to Sun Quan's mansion.
At the gate of Sun Quan's mansion, Zhuge Liang saw all kinds of sedan chairs and horses. In this way, Sun Quan summoned many officials to participate in today's event. This position is Sun Quan's attitude to Zhuge Liang: as long as Zhuge Liang can convince these civilian generals, he will not care about the consequences and allied with Liu Bei to resist Cao Cao's invasion...
Zhuge Liang's footsteps came to the bluestone road leading to the living room hall. He heard the noisy sound of the living room hall, which was more noisy than the vegetable market. This situation is also expected by Zhuge Liang: at this time, in the Jiangdong boundary, due to Sun Hao's domineering and squeezing Sun Quan, the personnel in Jiangdong have been divided into three obvious factions: one faction is Sun Hao's supporters, the other faction is Sun Quan's confid civilian generals, and the other faction is neutral.
In the "welcome" of everyone's collective attention, Zhuge Liang followed the veteran Cheng Pu into the living room. According to the etiquette, Zhuge Liang just looked at the three meters in front of him and walked slowly. At this time, everyone had stopped talking and paid attention to Zhuge Liang as if they were looking at a monster.
In the center of the living room, the veteran Cheng Pu nodded to Sun Quan, who was kneeling in the main seat, introduced Zhuge Liang to Sun Quan in just a few words, and also frankly told the purpose of Zhuge Liang's trip.
Cheng Pu just finished his words. Before he got up, Zhuge Liang did not officially visit Sun Hou, and there was a boo from the second row of seats. Some officials who were good at bullying the weak and the strong have spitting saliva to Zhuge Liang regardless of etiquette.
Zhuge Liang bowed to Sun Quan without changing his face. At the same time, he said loudly, "Jingzhou Zhuge Liang pays homage to Sun Hou!"
Sun Quan frowned slightly and said to Zhuge Liang in a low voice, "Mr. Zhuge does not need to be polite. Please take a seat!" As Sun Quan spoke, he raised his finger and pointed to an empty position next to Zhuge Jin. Sun Quan's arrangement is quite meaningful: if he doesn't give face to Liu Bei, he should give his teacher Zhuge Jin some face.
After Zhuge Liang sat down, he was about to analyze the current form to Sun Quan. An official near Sun Hao began to point to Zhuge Liang and ask, "Zhuge Liang? You are Liu Bei's messenger, right? Why did Liu Bei have the face to send you here... Zhuge Liang, do you know that Cao Cao has been led to our doorway because of your incompetence and cowardice! You have the kind to fight against Cao Cao. Why don't you fight to the death? Why did Liu Bei send you here..."
"Yes, what is the intention of the dog thief Liu Bei..." Another general patted the table and scolded, "Zhuge Liang, tell Liu Bei's hiding place as soon as possible, otherwise, we will kill you as an anti-thief on the spot..."
In the face of the horizontal accusations of the two people, Zhuge Liang was not angry. He just smiled at the two, and then replied softly, "You two are also seven-foot men. Why are you so afraid of the thief Cao Cao? ...Well, even if Uncle Liu leads Cao Cao's army to the border of Jiangdong, Liang is willing to bear this charge for Uncle Liu here! But please take a step back and think about it: even if Cao Cao does not lead the army to invade Jiangdong at this time, what about the future? Jingzhou Liu Biao is an example..."
The two officials were suppressed by Zhuge Liang's remarks. They opened their mouths, but they were speechless to refute. Zhuge Liang's remarks are so compatible with reality that some neutral officials are infected, and their eyes are shining.
Zhuge Liang suddenly stood up. His eyes toured the crowd like a torch, and then looked at Sun Quan. His voice suddenly raised and said, "Prince Sun, if Cao Cao did not attack Jingzhou, it means that he was still loyal to protect the interests of the Liu royal family. Now, Cao Cao just found an excuse to raise troops to invade Jingzhou, so Come on, Cao Cao's wolf heart is clear in the world - he wants to use the name of Emperor Xian to suppress the local princes, and then depose Emperor Xian and claim himself as the emperor... To be honest: Maybe a few years ago, Cao Cao did not have such thoughts, but now he has such thoughts..."
Zhuge Liang's point of view is clear - it refers directly to Cao Cao's ulgarmatism; Zhuge Liang's argument is conclusive - Jingzhou has been in Cao Cao's pocket at this time; Zhuge Liang's argument is sufficient - he evaluates Cao truthfully from the past to the present. Facts speak louder than words.
Sun Quan, encouraged by Zhuge Liang's remarks, his previous sharp eyes suddenly became gentle. He nodded slightly to Zhuge Liang and motioned Zhuge Liang to continue.
And Sun Hao looked at Zhuge Liang with great angrily. Previously, in front of Sun Quan, he did not dare to speak ill of Cao Cao. Now Zhuge Liang evaluates Cao Cao according to the facts, so that Sun Hao himself did not have time to react and refute Zhuge Liang's remarks in time.
Zhuge Liang also nodded slightly to Sun Quan, and then he turned to the crowd and continued to say loudly, "Guys, please put yourself in other' shoes. If you were Cao Cao at this time, what would you do? But I can only have one: by chasing Uncle Liu, I took the opportunity to invade the boundary of Jiangdong... What kind of person is Cao Cao? No matter how fair and wise Cao Cao was before, he was a villain at this time, a thief who did anything to achieve his goal! Liang can talk about the ugliness: At this time, even if you tie Uncle Liu to Cao Cao, after Cao Cao kills Uncle Liu, he will not stop. He will only take advantage of your paralysis and give you a thunderous blow..."
Zhuge Liang's words were like a dagger penetrating everyone's heart, making them feel cold all over. At this time, the whole living room was silent, and a needle fell to the ground, which could be frightening. They all stared at Zhuge Liang.
"The devil's words confuse the crowd! The king of Wei will not invade Jiangdong. After all, our Sun family has a relationship with the king of Wei and in-laws!" Sun Hao also stood up and pointed to Zhuge Liang and said angrily.
Zhuge Liang looked at Sun Hao and said word by word, "General Sun, how did Cao Cao marry the Sun family? Everyone knows the reason... General Sun, don't forget: Liu Biao in Jingzhou is still the uncle of today's son. Did Cao Cao let go of Liu Biao's descendants? Do you know what will happens to Liu Biao's favorite wife and concubine, Fan? Do you know the whereabouts of Liu Biao's son Liu Tan at this time?
Zhuge Liang's words were loud, which immediately made Sun Hao speechless. Sun Hao, who was ashamed and angry, picked up the wine set on the table and smashed Zhuge Liang. At this time, there was no super fierce general present. Some intermediate martial arts generals who wanted to save Zhuge Liang could only watch the wine set hit Zhuge Liang's head. If it is smashed, can Zhuge Liang, dressed as a scribe, stand it? Zhuge Jin, who is beside Zhuge Liang, is also in a hurry and sweatless, even if he is the one who wants to save Zhuge Liang the most!
At the moment when everyone's voice was mentioned, Zhuge Liang's eyes suddenly shot out a light. The light hit the wineware, and the ejaculated wineware suddenly fell to the ground from the air. Zhuge Liang's performance stunned everyone on the spot. They looked at Zhuge Liang one by one. At this time, Zhuge Jin looked at Zhuge Liang like a stranger.
"You know magic..." Sun Hao was afraid that Zhuge Liang would use magic to attack himself. He took three steps back from his seat and pulled out his sword to look at Zhuge Liang warily.
"General Sun, Liang's self-preservation spell is definitely an authentic Taoist spell..." Zhuge Liang looked at Sun Hao with a frightened face and said with a smile.
Everyone heard that Zhuge Liang could also spell, and they looked at Zhuge Liang with admiration. Sun Quan also learned from the veteran Cheng Pukou that Zhuge Liang is proficient in magic and can open roads in the mountains and build bridges in the water. Now, he is also envious of Zhuge Liang's magical spells with his own eyes.
At this time, Sun Hao saw that the civilian generals present were looking at Zhuge Liang with admiration, and he shook his sleeves with a blue face. Sun Quan did not stop him and let him leave.
