Inside the mourning hall.
A generation of Confucian general Zhou Gongjin completely left the dazzling heroic drama.
As an ally, Liu Mang attended the memorial ceremony, accompanied by Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun.
"Gong Jin, it is enough for you to be so respected by Master Changqing in this life!"
Xiao Qiao was dressed in plain clothes, not as beautiful as before, and her eyes were swollen from crying.
"Sister-in-law, please take care of yourself."
Liu Mang helped him personally, then bowed and said: "If Gong Jin's son wants to be an official in the future, he can come to Jingzhou!"
As soon as these words came out, Sun Quan felt very uncomfortable.
As a master of power manipulation, after the death of his brother Sun Ce, he united with the Jiangdong gentry to suppress Sun Ce's veterans.
Now that the power is finally in hand, the Jiangdong nobles have also received generous rewards.
Whether they are Zhou Yu's son or Sun Ce's son, they will only become rich men and will not be reused in their lives.
But Liu Mang's words were like a nail pierced into Sun Quan's heart.
"Thank you, sir!"
Xiao Qiao covered her face and cried. Liu Mang's words were undoubtedly supporting her.
Even if Zhou Yu dies, Jingzhou will not forget their orphans and widowed mothers.
"Back then, if the governor of Zhou Dynasty did not burn Red Cliff, how could my father control the four counties of Jingnan?"
"It's human nature to be grateful! Anyone who dares to forget such a great favor is a fool!"
"Wu Hou, am I right?"
Liu Mang seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and looked at Sun Quan and his other accomplices.
"Haha! What Chang Qing said is true! Please move to the central hall!"
Sun Quan is in front and Liu Mang is behind.
Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Pan Zhang and Ding Feng were all eyeing Liu Mang.
Guan Yu squinted his eyes and looked at the four people. In his opinion, they were just four people who wanted to sell their heads.
Zhang Fei's eyes widened in anger, and his aura alone was enough to completely overwhelm the four of them.
Zhao Yun, on the other hand, has a restrained aura, heavy sword without edge, large skill and lack of skill. Once it is unsheathed, it will kill the enemy.
"Rat, what are you looking at?"
Guan Yu sneered: "Where is Lu Ziming? Did Guan understand the Spring and Autumn righteousness that he taught him before?"
Lu Meng was humiliated that day, and now he directly chose to avoid Guan Yu when he saw him.
It’s a beautiful name, don’t be afraid!
"Second brother, you Lu Meng rat, were you scared to death, hahaha!"
Zhang Fei laughed heartily, but Zhou Tai and others dared not move even if they were in trouble.
"It's a pity that now in Jiangdong, only Ziyi is outstanding in martial arts."
Zhao Yun secretly sighed, "If we can take Taishi Ziyi under his command, it will be a great help!"
Seeing that there was no one around, Sun Quan smiled and said: "Chang Qing, now that Gong Jin is dead, there is no danger to defend Jiangling."
"If your father likes it, I will lend him this place, how about it?"
Still borrowing?
Liu Mang chuckled and said: "Wu Hou said that wrong! My father doesn't really need Jiangling!"
"If Marquis Wu is not happy, just throw it to Cao Jun."
"On the contrary, there are 30,000 households in the city, and my father is willing to take over on their behalf."
Thirty thousand households!
When it comes to population and resources, Sun Quan is so angry that his back molars are almost broken!
In troubled times, population is extremely important, it represents tax revenue and military resources!
After discussing with Zhuge Jin, Lu Su and others, Sun Quan suddenly discovered that although Liu Bei provided money and military rations.
But it was Jiangdong who consumed the soldiers, it was Jiangdong who helped Liu Bei resist Cao Cao, and it was Jiangdong who finally gave away 30,000 households to restore production in Jiangling!
"Liu Changqing, don't bully others too much!"
"I, Jiangdong, have already suffered a loss, are you still not satisfied?"
Sun Quan's green eyes looked at Liu Mang, as if he wanted to tear him alive!
"Sun Zhongmou! You are plotting against heroes and manipulating power. These tricks are not enough for me!"
Liu Mang retorted: "Jiangling, you can give it away for free, but we will never borrow it!"
you……
Today's Jiangling is nothing more than a piece of chicken ribs to Sun Quan!
It's tasteless to chew, it's a pity to throw it away!
Sun Quan understood the importance of Jiangling, but other Jiangdong nobles did not want to continue fighting.
They hope to maintain the basic foundation of the six counties in Jiangdong. Wouldn't it be nice to plunder Shanyue and rob the population if they have nothing to do?
Why go north and fight to the death with Cao Cao?
Today's Jiangdong nobles are more like Sun Quan's allies.
As smart as Sun Quan, after cleaning up Sun Ce's old troops, his next goal is to surrender the Jiangdong nobles!
"But... for the sake of Ren and the trainer, I can borrow Xiangyang from Wu Hou."
Liu Mang smiled and said: "In the future, if we capture Xiangyang, according to the previous covenant, I will hand it over to the Marquis of Wu!"
Xiangyang!
This place is rich and prosperous, and it was the seat of Liu Biao's rule.
If Xiangyang can be captured, it will further threaten Cao Cao.
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Sun Quan smiled and said: "Changqing, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you!"
Looking at Sun Quan's extended hand, Liu Mang reluctantly gave it a high-five.
"Wu Hou, please listen to my advice and don't fight anymore in Hefei!"
"Haha! Sir, do you think I don't know how to fight?"
Sun Quan said disdainfully: "I, the Marquis Shehu, have the blood of tigers, and I am the younger brother of the Overlord. How can I be stumped by a little Hefei?"
Out of the benevolence of his allies, Liu Mang reminded him again: "Then Marquis Wu, you must avoid Zhang Babai!"
Sun Quan laughed and said: "Zhang Babai? Who is that? I am Sun Shiwan!"
Seeing that the other party was so swollen, Liu Mang said he had nothing to say.
After paying homage to Zhou Yu, Liu Mang left some gold and silver luggage for the two Mrs. Qiao.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu died, leaving Er Qiao orphaned and widowed. Life was not easy.
As the saying goes, when people leave and the tea cools, Zhou Yu is reincarnated. He is the governor of Jiangdong that everyone respects.
Now that he is dead, how many people will remember his old love?
"Changqing... thank you very much!"
Da Qiao felt deeply that Sun Ce's biological brother treated them worse than an outsider in the end.
"Changqing, come to Jiangdong to visit us often from now on!"
"Sister-in-law Xiao Qiao, if your stay is not comfortable in the future, I will find a way to send you to Jingzhou."
Liu Mang smiled warmly, comforted Er Qiao, and planned to leave.
"My dear nephew, I still want to see the true face of Wu Hou."
Taishi Ci recovered from his injury and did not agree to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's solicitation.
"Uncle has thought about it, and Chang Qing will naturally not stop him."
"However, I hope that my wise nephew will allow my son Tai Shiheng to accompany you to Jingzhou."
Taishi Ci's face turned red, "My request may be a bit excessive, but Heng'er is my only relative!"
call……
Liu Mang sighed: "Uncle, don't worry, Tai Shiheng will be my official from now on!"
"Uncle, please listen to my nephew, if Marquis Wu sends you to fight, you must not agree!"
Taishi Ci nodded blankly. As a military general, perhaps dying in battle was his only fate.
"Bo Fu, I have given my life back to your Sun family."
"But Heng'er is still young, he shouldn't be like me..."
"Chang Qing, I leave everything to you."
Taishi Ci looked at the ship heading to Jingzhou and waved goodbye to Liu Mang and his son.
When we meet again, we still don’t know whether they are enemies or friends!
