This can also be regarded as a disguised form of publicity and hype, giving the world a gesture: You see, his loyal subordinate was seriously injured, but Sun Ce never left him, willing to give out important things and help him invite Hua Tuo, the world's miracle doctor, to diagnose and treat him. Sun Ce treats his subordinates so well, why don't everyone come and seek refuge with him!
Soon, Zhou Yu arrived in Wu County. Sun Ce personally went out to welcome Zhou Yu. He appointed Zhou Yu as Jianwei Zhonglang General. He specially equipped him with a band, played gongs and drums, and built a residence. The scale and the heaviness of the rewards were the largest at that time! There was nothing comparable to that formation in the entire Jiangdong and even the entire world.
On weekdays, Sun Ce never pays attention to ostentation when traveling, but on this day, he gave all the ostentation to Zhou Yu. Everyone knows that Sun Ce has always regarded Zhou Yu as a brother, but they have never thought that Sun Ce could treat Zhou Yu to this extent. For this reason, Zhu Zhi tried to persuade Sun Ce for a long time but did not persuade him. In the end, he could only accept it with a wry smile. That's right, this is Sun Ce, Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong. If he wants to be good to someone, he must give the best to the other person. He doesn't care what the world says or what others think!
It was similar to when Sun Ce wanted to make Sun Quan the minister of selection. Even at the risk of offending all the noble families in Jiangdong, if Sun Ce said so, he would definitely make him! Just ask who dares to disapprove!
I wonder how other generals will feel when they see Sun Ce's willful behavior, especially some veterans. It's not that they don't approve of Sun Ce's grand reward to his subordinates, but what has Zhou Yu, a young man, done? How many battles have you fought? Is it worthy of such a reward? It's not that Zhou Yu has no merit, but that rewards are given based on merit. There are many people who have made greater contributions than Zhou Yu. What will you, Sun Ce, do about the others? Is it possible to still treat him like an emperor?
However, it is precisely because of this that Sun Ce treats Zhou Yu unusually. If you really want to operate regularly, if you really have to wait for Zhou Yu's contribution to the sky, then you can do this. Everything is just a matter of course and logical, so what's the point of being different? Sun Ce knows that Zhou Yu is a person who likes to be high-profile. He has been holding back all these years because of Sun Ce. Therefore, when Zhou Yu can finally step up to the stage and work with Sun Ce to open up a future, Sun Ce will give Zhou Yu what he deserves these years. Yeah, make it all up for him!
From this day on, the entire world knew the name of Jiangdong Shulang. And soon, this name will linger in the ears of people all over the world, and it will last forever.
It can be said that it was precisely because Sun Ce treated Zhou Yu this way that Zhou Yu was willing to sincerely do everything for Sun Ce. In modern times, Sun Ce is a standard domineering president. If Zhou Yu were a woman, I believe she would have lost her ability to resist and would have no choice but to commit herself to him.
Along the way, everyone could see Zhou Yu's youth and frivolity, and the good relationship between Zhou Yu and Sun Ce. They were either envious, jealous, loving, or sarcastic. Few people know that as soon as Sun Ce and Zhou Yu returned to the Sun Mansion, the two brothers, who had been so close to outsiders just now, comparable to real brothers, started to quarrel on the spot.
in the hall,
Zhou Yu's voice was loud, as if he had forgotten his usual elegant demeanor. Sun Ce's voice was even louder, as domineering as ever. Everyone, including Sun Quan, was waiting outside the hall, neither entering nor leaving, which was quite embarrassing.
"I have to admit that Zhou Yu came at the right time this year."
On the side, Zhu Zhi sighed in a low voice,
"He is the most sensible one among all of us."
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were arguing so loudly that everyone outside could clearly hear the content of their argument. In short, Zhou Yu believed that Sun Ce should not ignore the overall situation and give up a great opportunity, but should continue to expand westward according to the original plan. In that case, he could also be of great use in Lujiang.
As a result, now, Sun Ce actually retreated because of Zu Mao! If Zu Mao had not lost his memory and revealed important clues, then it would be more or less reasonable for you to withdraw temporarily. But in fact, you gave up one side and gained nothing at all on the other side. What does this mean?
Zhou Yu's arrangement in Lujiang is gone; the excuse he had carefully planned to find for himself when he sent out troops the next time is gone; even if you send troops from Wu Commandery and go all the way west, Lujiang and other places will have already made preparations after receiving the news. Prepare. . . . . By that time, if you want to expand westward, the difficulty will not only increase several times!
Yes, you Sun Ce are willful and you can do whatever you want, but now, are you representing yourself alone? Are you going to burn down the efforts of everyone in Jiangdong?
Since Zu Mao has lost his memory, why not send him to Wu County and hand him over to Sun Quan to investigate secretly? If the extra people are placed here, can they be effective? It can be said that Sun Ce simply made a major decision-making mistake, and in Zhou Yu's opinion, this mistake would not be made by a child or a normal person!
Why is this happening? Because Sun Ce is too strong. In addition, all the veterans, Cheng Pu, Han and Huang Gai, all had inseparable feelings for Sun Jian. As a result, even if their subordinates had different voices, they were completely suppressed and did not even dare to mention them. Who dares to persuade Sun Ce not to interfere with Sun Jian's affairs at this time? Aren't you afraid of being beheaded by the furious Sun Ce?
It was precisely because he saw through all these factors that Zhou Yu knew that he should not leave Lujiang and had to follow Sun Ce's wishes and rush back to Wu County. Zhou Yu is not here to help Sun Ce investigate Zu Mao's case, Zhou Yu is here to wake Sun Ce up, because Zhou Yu knows that at this time, only he dares to say such things, and only he can do such things!
Listen to how furious Sun Ce is now, can others bear it? Only Zhou Yu could not only withstand it, but also shout Sun Ce back even more forcefully.
"When my elder brother calms down later, you can also persuade him. Brother Zhou is right, the good times cannot be wasted. Now, all the princes in the world are rushing away, for fear of falling behind. As long as I, Jiangdong, stagnate If you don't move forward, you will lose the future." Sun Quan said, "Leave it to me. No matter how many people block here, it will be meaningless."
"indeed."
Zhu Zhi nodded. Although others like Cheng Puhan felt a little unhappy, as mature generals, they had to admit that they really should not ignore the overall situation for some uncertain personal affairs. Otherwise, even if Sun Jian does come back in the future, he will point his nose at them and scold them. No matter what, we can't leave Sun Jian in a helpless situation when he returns in the future.
"Then what are you going to do, Second Young Master?"
Zhu Zhi asked strangely. Sun Quan asked them to persuade Sun Ce. Are you planning to wait here any longer? Is there anything more important?
"Heh, it's okay." Sun Quan smiled softly, "I just want to take a stroll."
With that said, he left alone.
At this time, Zhu Zhi had absolutely no idea that the young Sun Quan would actually sigh about life at this moment. The close relationship between Zhou Yu and Sun Ce made Sun Quan suddenly realize that when he came to this world, except for a group of relatives, he seemed to have no real friends at all. Then what's the point of him coming to this world to walk around? Going through history again?
It turns out that what has always bound Sun Quan has never been history, relatives, or responsibilities, but Sun Quan's own heart. Sun Quan always isolated himself and did not really participate in the world!
