Chapter 140 stab in the back
Bang!
The door was fiercely closed by Liu Feng's backhand, and the loud voice made the group of people opposite tremble.
Liu Bei's face was red with anger at this moment, and he tried his best to calm down his anger. Looking at the figure shaking in the opposite room, he suddenly had an impulse and couldn't wait to lead his men to rush in and chop the rebellious disciple who repeatedly humiliated him into pieces.
"Your lord, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. This is on the territory of the Marquis of Wu. We must not act rashly." Sun Qian, who followed, advised.
"Sun Zhongmou! What on earth is this boy's mind? Liu Bei was so angry that he turned his spearhead to Sun Quan again.
Sun Qian's expression changed, and he came forward compactly. He lowered his voice and almost reminded him with a whisper: "Master, if you say too much, you will lose it. Be careful that the wall has ears."
After this reminder, Liu Bei suddenly woke up a little. As his anger gradually subsided, Liu Bei's mood calmed down again. After weighing the pros and cons, although the huge scourge was in front of him, in order to take into account the overall situation, Liu Bei still decided to restrain his indignation.
"Well, you should contact me immediately. Please ask Wu Hou to contact me as soon as possible." Liu Bei left such a cold word and went back to the room sullenly.
It is different from the attitude towards Liu Fengshi. Liu Bei had just arrived at Yangling today. The next time, in the early morning, Wuhou Sun Quan sent someone to invite him to the military palace to get together.
On a sunny morning, Liu Bei finally met the Lord of Jiangdong, who had never met him in his twenties, in the same council hall.
In Liu Bei's view, although Sun Quan is also a hero, if he has to be ranked, he is at most a second-rate divider. Compared with first-class hegemons such as Yuan Shao and Cao Jian, he is much inferior in ability and temperament.
Liu Bei is too good at dealing with those people, let alone a Sun Quan.
Sure enough, between the talks, Liu Bei quickly turned a passive meeting of asking for help quietly into a t-talk of the New Year's twilight.
"Governor Zhou once talked to Bei. When he heard that General Bo Fu died young and entrusted the foundation of Jiangdong to General Zhongmou. He originally thought that you were young and difficult to take on a big job. He just remembered the friendship with General Bo Fu that he had to support you. But later, the general worked hard to govern, showing the posture of a clear master everywhere, subdued the governance of Jiangdong, and the country was rich and the people were strong. From then on, Governor Zhou looked at you with new eyes. After listening to these words at the beginning, you admired the general very much. Now I finally see you, which is really lucky for three lifetimes.
Liu Bei touted Sun Quan with the help of "Zhou Yu's words". Zhou Yu didn't say those words to him, which were all made up by himself, and the deep meaning of the words also implied that Zhou Yu was not convinced of your Sun Quan at the beginning, and the provocation was obvious.
Sun Quan is not an idiot. Liu Bei's words are somewhat true and somewhat false. He can still argue. At that time, he smiled and said modestly, "Xuande is too much. In fact, although today's Jiangdong has my painstaking efforts, it is also inseparable from the dedication of Gongjin and other virtuous ministers. It can be said that the strength of Jiangdong is me. The result of one heart."
In the face of Liu Bei's praise and provocation, Sun Quan was unmoved.
"General Zhongmou's words are reasonable. A virtuous minister like Zhou Lang, who has both literature and martial arts, is indeed rare in the world. Thinking of him in the battle of Chibi, Cao Yan was frightened by the wind. In the battle of Jiangling, he killed Cao Ren and fled in embarrassment. Now he is in Jingzhou, which can be said to have a distant reputation in China. I heard that Cao Qian sent Jiang Gan to Jiangling to persuade Zhou Lang not long ago. Although Cao Qian is a hero, he has always known people. Even Cao Qian values Zhou Lang so much. It can be seen that it is really enviable that the general can have such a virtuous minister.
Jiang Gan was Zhou Yu's classmate. He was ordered by Cao Qian to persuade Zhou Yu to surrender. In the end, he was strictly rejected by Zhou Yu. Sun Quan's eyes and ears also reported this matter to him. This was not an unusual thing, but now Liu Bei first praised Zhou Yu, and then said it, which sounded a little unusual.
Sun Quan just took a sip of tea and smiled without saying anything. In Liu Bei's view, this is to imply that what he just said has cut Sun Quan's mind.
Liu Bei got up with tea and moved close to Sun Quan. His expression became a little solemn. He whispered, "General Zhongmou, you and I joined hands to reject Cao thieves. Speaking of which, we are already a family. Since we are our own people, I have to remind the general, and I don't know whether to say it or not."
"It's your own family, and there's nothing to worry about. It's okay for Xuande to say it." Sun Quan also seems to be curious about the mystery of Liu Bei.
Liu Bei took a look at the left and right, and Sun Quan was in mind, so he ordered the people who served left and right to retreat for the time being.
After being deaf and eyesless, Liu Bei coughed softly and whispered, "Zhou Lang's prestige is already prosperous, and his generals and soldiers are all subdued. He has been in more than half of Jingzhou, but now he secretly uses tricks. He doesn't want me to attack Linxiang City. It seems that he secretly wants to connect Liu Feng. If these two people join hands, the whole Jingzhou will be under Zhou Lang's hands. In the middle. Zhou Lang has always been ambitious. If he is not a subordinate for a long time, General Zhongmou must be on guard.
With these words, even Sun Quan, who was extremely deep in the city, couldn't help but flash a trace of horror in his eyes. Obviously, Sun Quan said that Zhou Yu was his most trusted general, but in fact, he didn't think so in his heart.
As an outsider, he took the initiative to say Zhou Yu's "bad words". After saying this, the atmosphere immediately became a little subtle.
Liu Bei felt that he had touched Sun Quan. In order to avoid embarrassment of the other party, he temporarily left the council hall to go to the toilet on the grounds of convenience.
When he turned to the back, Sun Qian, who was waiting outside, quickly followed him. Liu Bei knew that Sun Qian must have something to say, so he stopped at the corner.
"Lord, how's it going?" Sun Qian asked.
Liu Bei's face was a little proud, "I told Wuhou all the words told by my general's division. This man's city is very deep, and the cover-up is excellent, but I can still see that he was moved by me."
"That's good." Sun Qian nodded and said, "We also took the opportunity to inquire about it. Just yesterday, Wu Hou also met with Liu Feng, but the purpose of Liu Feng's coming is not the same as what we speculated earlier."
Liu Bei frowned secretly: "Didn't Liu Feng come to ask Wu Hou to mediate from it?"
"He did not directly ask Wu Hou to mediate, but proposed to marry Wu's sister Miss Sun as his wife."
"What?" Liu Bei was shocked.
Liu Bei is not worried that Sun Quan will mediate from it. Even if this mediation is successful, as long as he can borrow to Nanjun, he can find an excuse in the future, and he can destroy Liu Feng. But if Liu Feng and Sun Quan become relatives and have this relationship, it means that unless Sun Quan nods, even if Liu Bei has a gorgeous excuse, he can't touch Liu Feng's hair.
Thinking of this, Liu Bei realized the serious surname of the problem. After a long time, his expression seemed to have made some kind of decision.
"Since Liu Feng wants to marry Miss Sun, it seems that our plan has to be adjusted."
