Chapter 1154(2/2)
Most of the leading and powerful figures in the Wu dynasty have some relationship with local powerful people.
The same goes for the Liao brothers.
They have some relationship with the Liao family in Jingzhou.
In other words, they are a branch of the Liao family in Jingzhou.
Although the Liao family in Jingzhou is not as powerful as the Huang family, Cai family, Xi family, etc., it can still be regarded as a local wealthy family.
Back then, Wu State stabbed its allies in the back and launched a surprise attack on Jingzhou, which resulted in huge immediate benefits.
But what is lost is long-term credibility.
In this era of keeping promises, many people are deeply despised by what Sun Quan did.
As the saying goes, if something is good above, it will be effective below.
What Sun Quan did not only affected the entire Wu Kingdom, but Jingzhou, which was the center of the incident, set an extremely bad example:
In Wu State, there is no need to talk about etiquette, benevolence, justice and morality. As long as the interests are in place, there is nothing that cannot be done.
If the benefits were greater, stabbing Da Wu in the back would not be a problem at all. For example, Brown Tang?
In the view of the Liao brothers, the benefits of being the second scholar in Jiaozhou were enough to stab Wu in the back.
So Liao Shi took the opportunity to kill Yan Gang, the prefect of Linhe (later Hezhou City), and called himself General Pingnan.
Then he, together with his brother Liao Qian and others, attacked Lingling and Guiyang. The turmoil spread to Cangwu and Yulin counties in Jiaozhou.
However, in January, tens of thousands of people gathered and the momentum was huge.
Lu Dai, who was stationed in Wuchang, received news of the unrest in southern Jingzhou and Jiaozhou earlier than Jianye.
He was so anxious that he went directly to see Lu Xun:
"The matter is urgent! If we report it to the imperial court and wait for His Majesty to issue an edict to quell the chaos, I am afraid that Jingnan and Jiaozhou will already be in chaos."
"In my opinion, it would be better if you let me lead the troops to go south first while making an appearance. Your Majesty is wise and will not blame me in the future."
Lu Xun had guarded Wuchang for many years. Although he had become estranged from Sun Quan over the years, he was still nominally the general in charge of half of the Wu Kingdom.
Lu Xun heard Lu Dai's words and solemnly said:
"Old General Lu said this too much! When His Majesty moved the capital to Jianye, he once said that everything west of Wuchang would be left to full-time officials."
"Now there are thieves causing trouble in Jingnan, which is under my jurisdiction. State affairs are of paramount importance. The old general only needs to lead the army, and I will take care of the rest."
After the two men had finished their discussion, Lu Dai led the army to march day and night, constantly gathering the officers and soldiers along the way.
Lu Xun personally wrote a letter to Sun Quan, explaining the reasons. At the same time, he also petitioned Lu Dai to be the shepherd of Jiaozhou to correct his name.
Lu Xun's memorial was sent to Jianye. Sun Quan did not blame Lu Xun and Lu Dai in the court, but instead praised their decisiveness.
At the same time, he also issued an edict to send generals Tang Zi and others to continuously reinforce Lu Dai.
However, after going to court, Sun Quan's face immediately became extremely gloomy when he returned to the harem.
In his hand, he held tightly the memorial Lu Xun sent from Wuchang.
The veins on the back of his hands have popped out.
Seeing His Majesty's appearance, everyone in the palace lowered their hands and lowered their eyebrows, not even daring to breathe.
When Queen Bu was still here, she could often persuade His Majesty. Even if His Majesty was angry, Queen Bu could quickly calm him down.
Since the death of Queen Bu, His Majesty's temper has become increasingly irritable, and the lives of the people in the palace have become increasingly difficult.
It happened that at this time, Lu Yi, the school secretary of the school affairs office, came to report:
"Your Majesty, Zhou Yin, the Marquis of Duxiang, was taught by Your Majesty before, but now he still does not repent, indulges in drunkenness, and indulges in debauchery. Please let Your Majesty decide what crime he should be punished for."
Zhou Yin, the Marquis of Duxiang, was the second son of Zhou Yu. He had the highest title among the descendants of the heroes. In the early years, he led thousands of people to garrison the public security of the important town of Jingzhou, and was highly appreciated by Sun Quan.
Unfortunately, according to the report from the school affairs office, Zhou Yin's actions in the police department failed to live up to Sun Quan's expectations.
Sun Quan, who had no place to vent his anger, immediately cursed:
"What are you talking about? That Shuzi still doesn't know how to repent? Shuzi is young and has no achievements at the beginning. He has received elite soldiers and been given the title of marquis and general, so he is thinking of Gong Jin and him."
"I never thought that he was so arrogant that he relied on favor and refused to change despite repeated admonitions. He was so disappointed in me! He was sent an imperial edict and was demoted to a commoner and moved to Luling!"
He was probably very angry, but when he saw Sun Quan talking, he smashed the memorial to the ground.
Zhou Yin's eldest brother Zhou Xun, who rose to the rank of Cavalry Commander, married the princess Sun Luban. Unfortunately, like his father Zhou Yu, he was unlucky and died young.
So Sun Luban remarried General Wei Quan Cong.
Probably because he and Zhou Xun were on the same path, Wei General Quan Cong had always taken good care of Zhou Yin.
After the generals at home and abroad learned of Sun Quan's decision, Quan Cong, Zhuge Jin, Bu Zhi, Zhu Ran and others submitted memorials one after another to plead for Zhou Yin:
Therefore, the general Zhou Yu Ziyin was whitewashed in the past and was appointed as a general. He could not nourish him with blessings.
I hope Sun Quan will forgive Zhou Yin for Zhou Yu’s mistake.
Sun Quan didn't listen and just said:
"I am alone in Gong Jin, and my righteousness is like that of all the princes. How can I be happy with Yin's achievements? He forced Yin to commit crimes and repaid them before they were expedient, and he wanted to suffer them so that he could understand them. With Gong Jin's son, and all the princes in the middle,
If you can change it, why bother!"
It means that my friendship with Gong Jin is the same as that of other princes. Naturally, I hope to see his son achieve success.
It's just that this child has done too much evil, so it's not appropriate to let him come back immediately. We still need to torture him and temper his temper.
With his body as the son of Gong Jin and the protection of all the kings, if he is allowed to correct himself, there will be nothing to worry about.
The brilliant words, the sincere words, the longing for Zhou Gongjin and the love for his descendants are beyond words.
When everyone heard what His Majesty said, it was indeed reasonable, so they had no choice but to send a letter to a certain unlucky kid named Zhou:
You just have to be patient. After a period of time, His Majesty's anger subsides, and we, the old ministers, will try to persuade His Majesty. Also, during this period, remember that you have behaved better recently, and you will naturally be able to come back then.
What could Zhou Yin do? Naturally, he could only stay in Luling obediently.
Probably because he felt that he had not taken good care of Zhou Yin, Quan Cong felt a little guilty, so he thought of another unlucky child named Zhou, Zhou Hu.
Zhou Yu's elder brother had a son named Zhou Jun, who was Zhou Yin's cousin. He died not long ago and left behind a son, Zhou Hu.
Quan Cong went to the table again and suggested that Zhou Hu should be allowed to lead the troops left by Zhou Jun.
This has always been the practice of Wu State.
But Sun Quan didn't know why, but he didn't agree:
"In the past, when Cao Cao left Jingzhou, he was the leader of Gongjin, and he never forgets it. When I first heard about Jun's death, I still wanted to use it. I heard that it was dangerous to use it, and it would be dangerous to use it, so I stopped it. I miss you Gong
Jin, how can you be so alone!"
The defeat of Cao Cao and the expansion of Jingzhou in the past were all due to Gong Jin, and I have never forgotten it.
Although I also wanted Zhou Hu to lead the army, I heard that he had a violent character and if I used him, he would cause trouble, so I didn't let him replace Zhou Jun.
Finally, Emperor Sun looked sad: I have never stopped missing Gong Jin!
Zhou Yin:???
Zhou Hu:???
Quan Cong:???
In the school affairs office, all the school officials praised Lu Yi:
"Lv Zhongshu's plan is really wonderful! In this way, the Zhou family's land in Jingnan over the years may not be preserved, and the school office's sugar cane land will be able to increase a lot."
Lu Yi smiled slightly, but there was a cold light in his eyes:
"This is just a small trick. The one I want is the Crown Princess."
The Crown Princess of Wu, surnamed Zhou, was the daughter of Zhou Yu.
Lu Yi has always remembered the incident when the East Palace secretly sent people to speak greedily for His Majesty, which almost caused the destruction of the school affairs office.
When the news about Wu State reached Chang'an, Zhu Ju hurriedly asked Feng Duhu to resign:
"Big events happened one after another in Dawu. I was worried about my lord, and I missed my hometown. I wanted to go back to Jiangdong."
Feng Duhu was naturally unwilling to let him go:
"What about the internship camp?"
"It has been nearly two years since the trainee camp came to Dahan, and I have not been following him since. Moreover, it has already entered winter. There are not many things in the army in winter, so there is no need to worry."
Feng Duhu took a deep look at Zhu Ju and finally nodded:
Chapter completed!
