Chapter 303: Toast, do not eat, eat, drink, ask for a monthly pass)(1/2)

Chapter 303: If you don’t eat toast, please give me a penalty (first update, please give me a monthly ticket)

Soon, the official boat that Jiang Wan was riding arrived at the ferry located on the shore of Piling City.

Wujun was a fief of the kings of Wu in all dynasties, and the place was noble. However, the place where they were located was a little far from the Yangtze River. Therefore, Jiang Wan had to get off the boat in Piling first, and then take a carriage to Wujun.

On the shore, the prefect of Piling, who had already received the news, personally went to the ferry to greet Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan exchanged greetings with the prefect for a while before boarding the carriage prepared by the prefect and heading to Wujun.

The next day, the team arrived near Wuxian.

"There are beautiful mountains and rivers here, and it is not unreasonable that the Kings of Wu have been granted this place in history." On the carriage, Jiang Wan looked up at the beautiful scenery not far away, and was quite amazed.

As the team approached Wuxian, this noble city gradually came into Jiang Wan's gaze.

"It is worthy of the Sun family who runs the second generation's city." Jiang Wan exclaimed again.

I saw that the walls of Wu County were tall and far more prosperous than most cities in Jingchu, which were no less than Jiangling and Xiangyang.

Coupled with the majestic city gate tower, the momentum brought by the name Wuxian. It is a place where dragons and tigers are lying.

The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the place is noble, and the city is tall and thick.

As an important official under Liu Feng's account, Jiang Wan naturally had a desire to take it for himself.

If Taiwan goes well, it will be possible to form a naval army of 30,000 to 40,000 people in five or six years, attack the coast, break the Songjiang City, and then quickly enter Wu County.

This Wu County is the hinterland of Jiangdong, and I am afraid there will not be too many defenders, at most three or five thousand people, so be prepared for Shanyue.

In other words, the possibility of breaking is very high. Even if it cannot be broken, the substantive capital of Jiangdong is a matter of great increase in one's own morale and destroying the other's morale.

Under the city, Lu Su came to greet Jiang Wan in person with some followers.

Of course he couldn't guess what kind of thoughts Jiang Wan had in his mind at this moment. He saw Jiang Wan's team getting closer and closer, and he walked forward with a smile.

Jiang Wan also saw Lu Su, but she didn't know who this person was. But she got off the carriage politely.

"But Mr. Gong Yan?" Lu Su bent over and bowed to Jiang Wan.

"That's right." Jiang Wan responded, then asked with a smile: "I wonder if sir?"

"In Lu Su, he is the minister of the tent of the Marquis of Wu. He was ordered to come to greet the sir." Lu Su introduced himself with a smile.

"It turned out to be Mr. Zijing." Jiang Wan said with a smile and clasped her fists.

When Lu Su was ordered to go to Jiangxia to ask for Zhou Yu's eldest son, Jiang Wan was not the prefect of Liu Feng's tent. However, he knew Lu Su's mission.

Because that matter can be used as a bargaining chip for this negotiation.

The two of them exchanged greetings under the city gate for a moment, and then Jiang Wan asked: "The business of the merchant ship is of great importance. Please take me to see the Marquis of Wu and discuss this matter."

Lu Su suddenly looked embarrassed, and Jiang Wan was shocked. This was a bad signal. I was probably because he was self-reliant and did not want to discuss the matter of the waterway.

"Hey, this matter is probably not easy to deal with." After a moment, Lu Su sighed.

"Liaodong is vast, and with Gongsun Kang and the Wuhuan people, most of the war horses are countless. We can completely allow the two of us to trade with them together. As long as the Marquis of Wu returns our caravan first, the war horses. Jiangxia can join forces with Jiangdong and go to Liaodong to trade. Why is it not easy to deal with?" Jiang Wan asked frowned.

He was making this final effort. Although Jiang Xia was not afraid of starting a war, he did not want to start the war easily.

"As the gentleman said, this matter will benefit both sides. But now that Wu Hou is sick, General Jiang Qin, who seized Jiangxia merchant ships, believes that seizing the merchant ships and seizing the war horses is a merit, and he refuses to release the people." Lu Su explained.

Even Sun Quan was sick. If Jiang Wan couldn't understand it, Sun Quan was delaying time and had no intention of discussing major issues. Jiang Wan would just hit him and die.

My face turned cold.

Lu Su quickly realized that something was wrong and immediately said, "This matter needs to be discussed for a long time." As he said, Lu Su looked around and saw that there were many people around him. He couldn't help but say, "This place is not a place for discussion. Please go to the humble house to discuss."

I already knew Jiangdong’s plan and Sun Quan’s irrationality. Jiang Wan could actually leave without a smile.

But Jiang Wan still wanted to argue with reason. Liu Feng was unwilling to suffer any grievance, so he had to suffer some grievance.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wan raised her fist and said, "It should be like this."

Seeing Jiang Wan's attitude change, Lu Su felt relieved and immediately smiled and bent over and said, "Sir, please get on the carriage."

"Yes." Jiang Wan nodded and got on the carriage. Lu Su also turned over the horse.

The group entered Wucheng.

A moment later, the team stopped outside a rather grand mansion. A plaque with the words "Lu Mansion" hung on the gate of the mansion.

"Sir, please." Lu Su tightened the reins of the horse, turned his head and said to Jiang Wan on the carriage, before turning over and dismounting.

Jiang Wan also slapped it and got off the horse.

Then the two entered Lu Mansion and came to the study together.

After sitting down with each other, before Lu Su could speak, Jiang Wan said, "I wonder what the situation of Wu Hou is?"

"I'm seriously ill. If I want to see a foreign guest, I'm afraid it will take half a month." Lu Su said with a little heaviness on his face.

Jiang Wan's heart sank. If Lu Su said he would see a foreign guest in a few days, Jiang Wan felt that there was still some hope. Sun Quan might be really sick. But half a month.

It was obviously delaying. After waiting for half a month, the news came to Jiangxia for another half a month. A month passed just like that.

After a slump in his heart, Jiang Wan decided to make a last try and said, "Forgive me for taking the liberty. I don't know if Mr. Zijing remembers the last time that my lord swept Jiujiang and plundered Zhou Yu's two sons. Mr. Wu was ordered by the Queen of Wu to ask for it. My lord Kuanren released Zhou Yu's eldest son. He also used gold and silver to help Jiangdong wipe out Shanyue."

"Of course I remember." Lu Su immediately knew what Jiang Wan was going to say, his eyes flashed and nodded.

"My lord acts with lenient and harmony. He has the intention to let go of his past grievances and asked Mr. Zijing to tell the Marquis of Wu, first put the merchant ships, and then the two families discussed trade with Liaodong together." Jiang Wan said sincerely.

"Mr. Wu is seriously ill. Even if I want to see him, it may be difficult. Mr. Wu lives in Wu County for the first half of the month. When Wu Hou is healthy, he will definitely summon him." Lu Su showed a sincere expression and raised his fist.

On that day, Liu Feng released Zhou Yu's eldest son, which was considered to be conditional.

But now, Sun Quan didn't even give up the conditions and directly refused.

He thinks of himself very much, and he will not eat toast and punish him for drinking.

Both of them have high IQs and are good at observing. Although Lu Su is sincere, he is full of ruling words. How could Jiang Wan not know?

The same is true for Lu Su. Seeing that Jiang Wan was speaking in a very organized manner, he knew that he could not hide it.

"Since that's the case, I will return to Jiangxia first, and wait a month later, and come to Jiangdong to meet Wuhou." Without any speculation, Jiang Wan had already given up and raised her fist.

Of course, Lu Su tried to keep him, but how to keep him, Jiang Wan's intention to leave was decided.

Although Sun Quan used the method of dragging the word, he still couldn't do the detention of envoys. Although Lu Su wanted to keep Jiang Wan, he knew it was impossible.

He couldn't help but stand up and said, "Then I'll send you to the sir."

"Thank you." Jiang Wan also stood up and said.

Jiangdong relied on this mission and just wanted to delay it. Jiangxia also had his own trump card and did not intend to seek it from others. If he could not get along, he would disperse quickly.

It's reasonable.

Soon, Jiang Wan got on the carriage and left Wucheng.

On the carriage, Jiang Wan looked melancholy. She wanted to avoid it, but in the end she found that she was really unavoidable.

Standing in front of the city gate and watching Jiang Wan leave, Lu Su was different again. He sighed, it seemed that delaying time would not be possible.

Gongjin, it only takes ten days to prepare at most.

When Jiang Wan's carriage completely disappeared from sight, Lu Su stepped onto the carriage again and came to the Wuhou Mansion.

In the mansion, Sun Quan sat in the study, full of energy.

Seeing Lu Su coming in, his blue eyes lit up and he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Then Jiang Wan was very observant and had a lot of opinions in her words and conversations. She couldn't keep it." Lu Su sighed.

"I left just now?" Sun Quan said with a deep brow.

Logically speaking, the initiative should be in the hands of Jiangdong. The waterway must pass through Jiangdong before entering the sea.

If the war lasted, Liu Feng would not have thought of trading with Gongsun Kang from Liaodong.

Jiangdong has the upper hand and has a strong power. He can eat and live in Jiangxia tightly.

In other words, even if Jiang Wan knew it was a drag, she should have waited for ten days and half a month to meet him and then leave sadly.

But now Jiang Wan left just now. There must be something strange about it.

But what is weird? What else can I do besides raising troops?

Sun Quan sneered, looked up at Lu Su and said, "Start up the delivery of food to Yuzhang and prepare to defend against the enemy."

"No." Lu Su bent over and replied, and slowly retreated.

"Last time, Gongjin led his troops to attack Jiangxia. He returned in defeat. This time, if I were defending the city, I wonder if you could defeat Gongjin's 20,000 elite soldiers just by relying on the treasury under the tent?" Sun Quan faced Jiangxia and sneered.

…………….

Xiling City, General Yang Wu, in the study.

Liu Feng was wearing a casual dress, with a Chu sword hanging around his waist, and knelt on the main seat. His expression was a little ugly, and his eyes were shining with cold light.

This is all because of a bamboo slip on the table.

This is the news that Huang Zhong ordered people to quickly pass on, and the news that Yu Zhang and Zhou Yu were sent.

Training and preparing various cities and guarding equipment.
