"The reserve position is related to the foundation of the country. Protecting the foundation of the country means protecting Jiangdong. Don't worry, Boyan. As the prime minister, I will have a sense of proportion."

Seeing the struggling look on Lu Xun's face, Gu Yong comforted him:

"Listen to what I say. When you go back, just focus on your duties and don't get involved in this matter easily."

After hearing Gu Yong's words, Lu Xun let out a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Xun understands."

This was said, but Lu Xun returned to Wuchang and after telling Sun Deng the news that the prime minister had taken over the matter, he still secretly inquired about the news about Jianye.

Gu Yong acted very quickly. After a few days, he reported to Sun Quan, saying that Sun Liu was "intelligent in nature, intelligent in body, and up to date in his pursuits." It was appropriate for him to be promoted to a noble title and become king as usual.

Sun Quan unexpectedly refused.

After hearing this news, Lu Xun's heart skipped a beat, and then thinking about what Gu Yong said, his heart began to sink.

But as the prime minister, how could Gu Yong give up so easily?

Soon, the second important minister in the court, Shangshu Pushe, continued to play:

"When an emperor rises, he must pay tribute to his closest relatives and honor his descendants. Therefore, Lu Wei was placed in the Zhou Dynasty, favoring the princes, Gao Di and the five kings, and conferring titles to the Han Dynasty. Therefore, the imperial guard of this dynasty served as a guard for the country."

First, it lists the practices of the ancient emperors Zhou Tianzi and Han Gaozu, explaining that this is an act of respecting their relatives and promoting the virtues of the palace.

"The Marquis of Jianchang is intelligent in nature, talented in both civil and military affairs, and in the classical system, it is appropriate to correct his name. Your Majesty is humble and unwilling to remain as before. The size of the group of residences is not suitable for the city."

Then it is said that Sun Lu was both civil and military, and according to the regulations, he was to be crowned king. However, His Majesty was relatively modest and did not want to follow the old rules. That is understandable.

"Nowadays, the traitorous bandits are indiscriminate, and the golden drum has not been extinguished. They only have relatives and virtuous people. They often discuss with Prime Minister Yong and others, and they consider it appropriate to be the general of the army, and to be appointed with folk remedies to promote the great cause."

Finally, the conversation changed: It's just that the world is in chaos now, traitors are everywhere, and wars are endless. The only people who can be fully trusted are family members, virtuous ministers and good generals.

If your Majesty is not willing to make Sun Lu king, you will still give him the title of General of the Army, and then appoint him to a place to glorify his great cause.

Sun Quan did not agree to Prime Minister Gu Yong to grant Sun Lu the title of king. If he continued to refuse the proposal of Shangshu Pushe, it would not only arouse the suspicion of the officials, but even his son would be dissatisfied.

So he had no choice but to relent and agreed to appoint eighteen-year-old Sun Liu as the general of the Zhenjun Army. He was granted a leave of absence, opened a separate government office, moved out of Wuchang, and took up his post in Banzhou (that is, near Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province).

Lu Xun found out, but still couldn't let go.

It is a bit strange to confer a title of general of the town army instead of the king.

However, the second prince's decision to move elsewhere was considered an opening.

It is only reasonable and reasonable for His Majesty to make the second prince the king and half the state as a kingdom when the time is right.

Sun Quan had no idea that his prime minister and general had teamed up to play a trick on him.

Compared with this, his attention has turned to Hefei, and his thoughts have become more and more intense.

Because after the news of the Battle of Xiaoguan came, Sun Quan recalled the Yinfan Rebellion and the Wuxi Barbarian Rebellion in Wuling, and he still couldn't guess that this was a conspiracy designed by Cao Rui.

The purpose is to hold back Jianye and Jingzhou, preventing him from going north to support Shu at the critical moment.

But the other party actually succeeded in designing it!

How can you tell him to swallow this breath?

At this time, people between Jianye and Hefei were fleeing from each other every day, otherwise there would not have been Han Zong before and Yinfan behind.

Sun Quan then began to send people north to inquire about news about Hefei to see what arrangements the Wei State had made in the Jianghuai area after Cao Xiu's death.

I don't know if he was really lucky, but one piece of news that he carefully sent back aroused his great interest.

That is, Man Chong, the general who conquered the East, had a bad relationship with Wang Ling, the governor of Yangzhou. Wang Ling's colleagues often made slanderous remarks about Man Chong.

After learning about this, Sun Quan was overjoyed and began to make plans.

At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, Jiangnan seemed to have a fiery atmosphere due to the actions of all parties.

But in Longyou, it is the time when the temperature is pleasant.

Feng Junhou stayed in Jicheng for a long time. During the day, he talked about military affairs with General Zhao, and at night he talked about the script with Zhang Xiaosi. It was wrong, but it was about his heart.

It's just that Zhang Xiaosi's physical fitness is not as good as Guan Ji's. When he first encountered the taste, he couldn't bear the beauty, so he started to replenish his body.

Just when Feng Yong was about to leave Jicheng and return to Pingxiang, a person from Pingxiang suddenly came to see him, which surprised him.

"Wei Ran? Why are you here?"

The person who came was none other than Zhao Guang's deputy general and the general who commanded the Yi Cong of the Hu people, Yang Wanwan.

Yang Wanwan’s face looked very bad:

"Brother, I just want to tell my brother that I am going to Yinping."

"Yinping? What happened to Yinping? Don't be anxious. Sit down and talk slowly."

Feng Yong saw the anxious look on his face, so he comforted him with gentle words.

Yang Qianwan picked up the water bowl on the table and drank it. It was obvious that he was in a hurry.

"There is news from Yinping that the Lord has fallen ill."

"You mean Governor Yang?"

Yang Wanwan’s lord is Yang Ju, the second generation White Horse Di King of Yinping Wudu.

During the Battle of Longyou, Yang Ju used his connections to help defeat the powerful forces in the military capital of Yinping. Later, he served as the prefect of Yinping and used his old identity to appease the Qiang Di in Yinping.

At this time, Old Demon Zhuge was carrying out the "last piece of the puzzle" movement in Shu. One was to penetrate Hanjia County from Yuexun to the north, and the other was to go south from Yinping to threaten Wenshan County.

In the end, all the Yi people in these two counties were wiped out.

At this critical moment, Yang Ju suddenly fell ill, which was not a good thing.

"Is Governor Yang's illness serious?"

Feng Yong asked with concern.

Yang Qianwan nodded and said worriedly:

"My lord is in good health, but I didn't expect that this illness will make me bedridden. I have sent people from my tribe over these days to urge me to go back as soon as possible. I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry, I'll send someone to Nanxiang right away and ask them to send out the best medical workers."

Yang Qianwan smiled bitterly:

"To be honest, brother, my sister-in-law has already sent someone there when she found out about this matter. However, judging from the tone of the master, I am afraid that Shouyuan..."

Birth, old age, illness and death are human nature.

According to Yang Wanwan, Yang Ju may be approaching the end of his lifespan.

If this is really the case, no matter how skilled a doctor is, there is no good way.

"It's useless for you to think wildly here. On the contrary, it will disturb your mind and hurt your body. I'll wait until you get to Yinping to tell how Yang Taishou's health is."

Feng Yong knocked on the table, "Okay, I see you are also very tired, so go down and rest first. We will continue our journey tomorrow. I will give you my mount and the journey will be faster."

"Thank you, brother."

"What's there to say thank you to between brothers?"

Feng Yong waved his hand.

After Yang Wanwan went down to rest, Feng Yong turned around and entered the backyard and told Zhang Xingyi:

"Siniang, help me find a map of that part of Jincheng."

Hanjia County and Wenshan County are just west of Shu County.

If the prefect of Yinping County is replaced, he must also make some preparations.

After all, he had driven the twelfth son of the Li family there, intending to force the eldest son of the Li family to spend his money to civilize the barbarians in that area.

"Siniang, do you think the Prime Minister would agree if I recommend Yang Weiran to be the governor of Yinping?"

Feng Yong looked at the map, pondered for a moment, and then asked.

"Yang Weiran also made contributions in the Battle of Xiaoguan. He is qualified to be the prefect."

Zhang Xingyi sat aside, drinking red date soup, "But what about Hu Qiyi from Xiaowei Mansion? Isn't he the arm of the second brother of the Zhao family?"

"It doesn't matter. We only need to stay in Liangzhou for a while. Is it possible that Liu Hun from the Governor's Mansion can escape?"

When Zhang Xingyi heard the name Liu Hun, his eyes suddenly rolled:

Hey, didn’t this little Hun prince just beg me at first and then become Alang’s long-term follower?

If he hadn't been A Lang's long-term follower, he wouldn't have been so lucky in the end to win the identity of a marquis.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaosi suddenly smiled like a little fox, and his eyes began to narrow:

"I forgot about him."
