But for such arrogant women as Sanniang and Siniang, they are like honey, making people want to stop.

In August of the seventh year of Jianxing, the Han generals Wei Yan and Feng Yong each led their armies to defeat Jincheng in Yuzhong, and then crossed the river to occupy the city in order to force Wuwei County in Liangzhou.

Xu Miao, the governor of Liangzhou in Cao Wei, hurriedly ordered Lu Pan, the guard general of Xiping County, to lead his army back to defend Xiping and abandon the defense of Xiping.

At the same time, Wei Yan divided his troops and led ten thousand people to cross the river west and go north along the Huang River.

The cities in Huangshui, Po Qiang, Anyi, etc., were unable to resist and surrendered in the hope of wind.

The Han army went directly to Xiping County to govern the Western Capital, officially declaring that Xiping County was once again under the rule of the Han Dynasty.

Successful news spread from the west, and Chen Zhen, the great Han guard who was sent to Soochow, was tasked with allying with Soochow.

However, in the Soochow court, they praised the benevolence of the Han Dynasty in a subtle way to express their dissatisfaction with Sun Quan's proclaimed emperor.

Chen Zhen's words were sharp, and in addition, he extended Han Zuo's words, so he was called orthodox.

Sun Quan of the Eastern Wu Dynasty had just proclaimed himself emperor, but after all, his name was still somewhat unfair.

More importantly, in the edict to proclaim himself emperor, Sun Quan said that the Han Dynasty no longer existed and there was no way to save it. He was very "sad" in his heart:

The Han family is in turmoil and cannot be saved, so why bother competing?

Then he emphasized that the rules of the world were broken by the Cao family and his son, and he just had to be the emperor:

There were four generations in the twenty-fourth year of the Han Dynasty, and there were four out of four hundred and thirty years. The number of Qi and Qi ended, the fortunes of Lu and Zuo were exhausted, the whole world was relaxed, and the earth fell apart.

The evil minister Cao Pi then seized the artifact, and Pi Zirui succeeded him as the emperor, gaining a reputation for lewdness and chaos.

Quan is afraid of destiny and dare not disobey. He chooses the first day to burn sacrifices on the altar and becomes emperor.

First he stepped on the Han Dynasty, then on Cao Wei, and then he said that he was following the destiny of becoming emperor.

Needless to say, Cao Wei refused to admit that Ji Han, his ally in the west, was a Han Dynasty.

Chen Zhen was sent as an envoy to Dongwu. He looked around at the monarchs and ministers of Dongwu and said: "I sent a Han guard to the state of Wu as an envoy. How can I say that the Han family is gone?"

The king of Soochow and his ministers cannot be right.

Sun Quan felt guilty and subconsciously looked down at the front, only to find that Zhang Zhao was no longer in his seat.

Thinking back to the first day when he became emperor, he was so satisfied that he forced his teacher to lie on the ground and sweat.

In the end, he had to use old age and physical illness as an excuse to return his official position and the army he commanded.

Although he was given the honorable title of General Assisting Wu, he actually had no real power at all.

In addition, every time Zhang Zhao went to court, his speech was strict and vigorous, and his righteousness was reflected in his appearance.

He repeatedly said that his remonstrance violated the imperial decree, so in order to save worry, he directly ordered him not to go to court again.

This scene made Sun Quan feel a little regretful:

If Duke Zhang were here, even if his sharpness would not be compromised, his arrogance would be restrained. How could he be as boastful as he is now?

Chen Zhen forcefully defeated the king and ministers of Dongwu and let out a bad breath. Then he took out the document given by the Emperor of Han Dynasty and handed it to Sun Quan. At the same time, he also handed over the letter of the Prime Minister of Han Dynasty.

The Kingdom of Shu sent envoys to congratulate him on becoming emperor. Sun Quan originally thought this was a happy thing, but now he was frustrated.

He opened the credentials given to him by the Emperor of Han Dynasty with some gloominess. He had just read half of it when he immediately sat upright.

His eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Sun Quan's strange behavior made the Wu officials below feel a little strange: What did the Lord of Shu say from above to make His Majesty so happy?

"Good, great!"

After Sun Quan read the letter of credence, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and the sullenness just now was completely gone.

"The Emperor of Han wants to divide the world equally with me, how can I not respond?"

It turns out that this certificate of credence states that the Han Dynasty wanted to formally swear an alliance with Soochow to destroy Cao Cao's traitors and divide the world among them.

After hearing this, the ministers of the State of Wu below all looked at Chen Zhen.

Damn it, you came here to make a pact with us, but you just made a mockery of us?

What do you mean by this?

Sun Quan, who could only listen above, said again, "Han and Wu are already an alliance, so why bother saying this in the credentials?"

Chen Zhen laughed in his heart and said to himself: Soochow, you are like a rat! If you didn't like to take advantage of others, why would the big man do this?

"Back to Your Majesty, this time is different from the past. Since Your Majesty has honored you, Han and Wu are countries of brothers. We should go to the altar to offer sacrifices to the heavens to tell the Emperor and the Empress about the earth, mountains and rivers."

"In this way, everyone in the world will know the intention of the alliance between Han and Wu. In the future, the two countries must not betray the alliance again, otherwise they will be punished by heaven and be spit upon by both humans and gods."

The smile on Sun Quan's face froze.

The officials of Soochow were even more upset!

What do you mean? It’s obvious that you can’t trust us?

We actually asked our boss to go to the high altar and swear an oath in front of the Emperor, the Empress, Tu Shanchuan, and everyone in the world?

Who came up with the idea?

How vicious!

Chen Zhen laughed again, "Your Majesty, after the Prime Minister pacified Nanzhong, he also built high altars in Wei County and Pingyi."

"We made a covenant with the rulers of the southern barbarians, and even set up a monument to remember it, to show that we will never forget it!"

"It is precisely because of this that Nanzhong has been able to gradually establish discipline in recent years, and Han and barbarians can live in peace."

When Lu Xun heard this, he couldn't help but cast a sidelong glance at Chen Zhen: Are you kidding me?

When Zhuge Liang sent troops to Nanzhong, it was when he was the governor of Jingzhou, and he spared no effort to understand the situation in Shu.

So he knew this was just bullshit!

Sun Quan, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Chen Zhen's words: It turns out that Shu people like to swear oaths on the altar, but it's not intentionally against him.

"It is indeed a good idea to go to the altar to sue the emperor, the empress, the earth, mountains and rivers, and everyone in the world, but I don't know who proposed it in the first place?"

"Feng Mingwen, Marquis of Jiequanting."
