Chapter 148 The so-called friendship
(Thank you for Xiaomo's reward)
When Liu Feng was at the edge of the Wangjiang Pavilion, before the beautiful woman, a meeting of kings and ministers was taking place at the same time in the military palace of Muling City.
"Zi Jing, I called you here in a hurry. Thank you for your hard work all the way."
Wuhou Sun Quan did it himself and added a cup of hot tea to Lu Su, who looked dusty, to show his honor and favor.
Lu Su did not dare to be a favor. He hurriedly bowed and said, "Why do you work hard for the host?"
A sigh and a warm question, a gratitude, and a polite performance between the ministers.
With a cup of hot tea, Lu Su said, "After Su returned to the mausoleum, I heard that the master actually arranged the two Lius in the same restaurant and let them live door to door. I don't know if there is such a thing?"
Referring to this matter, Sun Quan looked a little proud, stroked the purple beard and said, "It's true."
"Master, the two Liu are sworn enemies. The Lord knew this and deliberately arranged them like this. I'm afraid that the two people will feel that the Lord is deliberately playing a trick on them." Lu Su frowned, and there was worry in his eyes.
Sun Quan sneered and said disapprovingly, "Er Liu are all under my fence. I did this to let them understand that no matter which one of them, I can easily play with them in the palm of my hand."
Lu Su immediately understood Sun Quan's intention. He was indirectly demonstrating against the two Lius, using this almost humiliating means to let them understand who was the real hegemon of Jing Yang.
However, in Lu Su's view, Sun Quan's method is completely unnecessary except to show his power to Er Liu Yaowu.
"Lord, what happened when Liu came to the mausoleum? When he was in Baqiu, he also knew a little about it. I don't know how the lord planned to deal with what they asked." Lu Su put the topic on the right track.
Sun Quan's face immediately surged with a little embarrassment, and there seemed to be hesitation in his expression. "I have also discussed this matter with Zibu and others. I feel that no matter how to deal with it, there will be advantages and disadvantages. It is difficult for me to make a decision for a while, so I urgently called Zijing back, just to hear your opinion."
When the critical moment came, Lu Su suddenly had an illusion, as if the fate of Zhou Yu, Liu Bei, Liu Feng and others had been completely in his own hands at this moment. His next words would affect the situation in the whole world to a large extent.
Those are not the key points. The point is that Lu Su felt that until now, his fate was really in his own hands. Whether to continue to succumb to others or take advantage of the situation, it was all in one thought.
Friendship? Humph!
After the thought had been decided, Lu Su's expression immediately became solemn. After pondering for a moment and pretending to think about it, he said seriously, "This matter is related to the overall situation of the lord's operation of Jingzhou, and it should not be easily dealt with. As for how to deal with Er Liu, Su has some opinions, but I don't know whether to say it or not.
Sun Quan was refreshed and waved his hand and said, "You and I are infernal, and Zi Jing can say it."
Lu Su took a deep breath and said slowly, "I, Dongwu, can't fight on the two lines of Jingyang. This is for sure. On the side of Jingzhou, although Gong Jin has won more than half of Jingzhou, he can't win people's hearts. This is also true. Therefore, I thought that I would use Liu Bei's hand to stabilize Jingzhou and share the pressure on our western line. In the compulsory line, this southern county can be lent to Liu Bei.
Lu Su put the overall situation first and firmly expressed his attitude. When he spoke, his eyes had never left Sun Quan. Seeing that he nodded slightly, he knew that he had touched Sun Quan's mind.
"In fact, I have always thought so, but Nanjun was beaten by my Jiangdong Erlang in blood. Even if I borrowed it to Liu Bei for the overall situation, I'm afraid that the soldiers can't take care of the overall situation as much as Zi Jing. If they are dissatisfied, what if they shake the military heart."
Sun Quan's concerns are not unreasonable. In fact, this is also an important reason why he is slow to make a decision.
Lu Su smiled faintly, "This matter is easy. Doesn't Liu Bei want to borrow Nanjun? OK, let's make a request for him to exchange Jiangxia County. When Jiangxia is in hand, the Han River and the Yangtze River are all controlled by my Eastern Wu. I think such a great interest is enough to calm the dissatisfaction of the soldiers.
"Jiangxia for South County!"
The most important thing about Jiangxia lies in Xiakou. Once Xiakou is obtained, it is equivalent to controlling the intersection of Hanshui and the Yangtze River. As Lu Su said, it is equivalent to controlling these two most important water systems. The strategic significance is extraordinary. Moreover, getting Jiangxia is equivalent to connecting the eastern part of Jingzhou with Jiangdong, which is more in line with Sun's strategic plan to gradually eat Jingzhou.
"Jiangxia for Nanjun, Jiangxia for Nanjun, good, good..." Sun Quan suddenly realized, and his whole body suddenly became excited.
"However, Liu Bei is a generation of heroes. Although he used land to contain Cao Qian, he could not be guarded. The lord should use Liu Feng and put a nail in Liu Bei's back to clamp Liu Bei, so that he did not dare to be at different intentions. Therefore, Su Yi's father-in-law should promise Miss Sun to Liu Feng. Once this marriage is concluded, firstly, he can ensure that Liu Feng is loyal to the master, and secondly, give Liu Bei a clear signal, so that he dares not to treat Liu Feng's opponent again. In this way, Jingzhou can form a balanced system completely under the control of the Lord.
Lu Su said the layout in his heart in one breath. In fact, this layout was also a consensus reached between him and Pang Tong when he was on the ship.
After hearing these words, Sun Quan's whole body seemed to be enlightened, and he was extremely refreshed. At present, he said happily, "Zi Jingzhen is my son's room. What you said is in line with my heart. It's very good, very good."
When he moved Sun Quan, Lu Su breathed a sigh of relief, but said worriedly, "From the overall situation, this may be the best choice, but I'm worried that Gong Jin may not be able to turn this corner. In the future, he will guard Jiangxia and rely on Gong Jin to monitor Er Liu. If Gong Jin is always dissatisfied, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to the stability of Jingzhou.
Sun Quan nodded slightly. After thinking about it again and again, Fang said, "Gong Jin has worked hard and has been injured and sick on his body. It is not appropriate to work too hard. In the future, it is better to return to Yangling to recover from his injuries. As for Jingzhou, I'm afraid I have to rely on you to preside over the overall situation.
Sun Quan's hint is already very obvious. He intends to hide Zhou Yu and hand over the power of the Eastern Wu Western Line to Lu Su.
Sun Quan has no other choice. If he makes a decision according to Lu Su's advice, then Lu Su is the hero of uniting Er Liu to maintain the stability of Jingzhou. Naturally, only Lu Su can handle the relationship with Er Liu and ensure the situation of Jingzhou Alliance's resistance to Cao.
If Sun Quan wants to abandon Zhou Yu, he must reuse Lu Su.
'Pang Shiyuan is really expected to be like a god. It would be great if he could use this person for me.'
When Lu Su thought in his heart, he said generously, "If the Lord can believe in Su, Su must do his best to share the worries of the Western Front for the Lord."
"Okay, Zijing, I'm sure you won't let me down."
Sun Quan nodded repeatedly with a gratifying look on his face.
