"Not suitable? How do you know if you haven't tried it?" Sun Quan replied. He knew that Diao Chan meant that Sun Yi might not be suitable to be the lord, but no one could say for sure. Not to mention that there was no reference here, even the original There is no reference in the history of
"Maybe he can do better than big brother and me? If you don't give him a chance, you will never know whether he is suitable." Sun Quan said.
"You are gambling!" Diao Chan shook her head repeatedly, "You are gambling with the fate of the Sun family, the fate of Jiangdong, and even the fate of the entire world! Why should we gamble when there is obviously the best choice?" Diao Chan tried her best to persuade. .
However, Sun Quan continued to accept his death.
"I said, he may do better than my eldest brother and me, but I am not the best choice. Even if it is a gamble, but I have better expectations, why can't I gamble?"
Of course, that's what they say, but this reason doesn't make sense here with Diao Chan, and it doesn't even make sense in this era! Confucianism is today's universal value system and emphasizes moderation. It's best if you can be peaceful and stable. If you are too radical and risk going bad in pursuit of better, this is very undesirable.
"Ask yourself, why do you dare to say such things? What does Sun Yi have? At his age, your eldest brother and you have never seen anything! And what about Sun Yi, what has he experienced?" Diao Chan shouted, Her mood fluctuated so much that she completely abandoned her modesty as a woman,
"Sun Zhongmou! Please wake up! You are not helping him, you are harming him! You are not generous, you are evading! Did your eldest brother's death shock you? Okay, I am not alarmist, like you As it is now, you will soon be hit one after another! If you are a man, take responsibility for me, wait until the world is at peace, then retire, resign and retire. At that time, I will accompany you on your travels in Xizi. Wandering around the world!"
After finishing speaking in one breath, Diao Chan was panting, without any shyness on her face, and she looked directly into Sun Quan's eyes. Sun Quan couldn't avoid even his eyes.
Outside, Wu Jing, who had not gone far, suddenly stopped and smiled,
"This woman has the air of a phoenix to grace the world, which is really rare, rare."
Immediately, Wu Jing continued to lift his legs and left, no longer listening to the final result.
"Send the order and ask the generals from Xiapi, Beihai and Langye to clean up as soon as possible. We are ready to leave at any time."

On this day, no one knew what Diao Chan said to Sun Quan, and no one knew how much they said. They only knew that Diao Chan was always with Sun Quan, never leaving him. She followed Sun Quan wherever he went and could not get rid of him.
Of course, for Wu Jing, the process is not important, as long as he knows that the result will not change. For someone as stubborn as Sun Quan, Diao Chan might be the only one who can deal with him.
I have to say that women are really scary. No wonder there are witches in every era who bring disaster to the country and the people. If Diao Chan encouraged Sun Quan to do bad things, I don't know if Sun Quan could withstand it.
"You will regret it." Sun Quan finally said to Diao Chan. These words revealed Sun Quan's helplessness and also represented his compromise.
"I won't!" Diao Chan was determined, she believed in her own vision.
In response, Sun Quan just shook his head without comment. If that day comes in the future, will we retire after our success? Resign and go into seclusion? It's not as simple as Diao Chan thought. Of course, as long as Sun Quan is really willing, no one can stop him, but Sun Quan like that is probably not much different from Cao Cao in history. How could anyone in the powerful Sun family want to usurp the throne? The difference is whether Sun Quan will be the emperor or his descendants will be the emperor.
By then, I'm afraid Diao Chan will have already forgotten what she said today and will worry about other things.

Liu Bei,
Sun Quan didn't know what Liu Bei was like when he was young, but he only knew that Liu Bei was really scary now.
After going through so much, the current Liu Bei can no longer be described as humble and low-key. In Taoist terms, it means restraining the essence and returning to nature. Or, like a lurking python, it may launch a fatal blow at any time and directly devour the opponent!
You know, Liu Bei is also a prince. Although he is in decline at this time, whether it is his reputation or some hidden helpers such as Cihang Jingzhai, Liu Bei's status is enough to be on an equal footing with Sun Quan. No matter how bad he is, he is definitely not one of Sun Quan's subordinates.
As a result, when facing such a junior and rising star like Sun Quan, Liu Bei's attitude was as low as when he met Cao Cao.
Liu Bei expressed his great gratitude to Sun Quan for his kindness. He promised that Xiapi and other places would always be under Sun Quan's rule. Sun Quan was still his governor of Xuzhou, and Liu Bei managed Xiapi as a prefect or prime minister. In short, Liu Bei did not say that he and Sun Quan were allies. He even directly claimed that he was a subordinate of Sun Quan, the governor of Xuzhou.
Liu Bei agreed to all the conditions proposed by Sun Quan without any bargaining.
However, Liu Bei only had one request, that is, Sun Quan must always be loyal to the Han Dynasty. Once Sun Quan becomes disloyal, Liu Bei will immediately tear up the contract.
To put it simply, as long as you, Sun Quan, are loyal to the Han Dynasty, then I can work for you as your subordinate. But if you, Sun Quan, have the ambition to become king and emperor, then don't blame me for turning your back on him and turning him into a bastard.
In this regard, no matter what Sun Quan's true thoughts were, it was impossible for him to say no to his face.
As a result, the so-called negotiation ended without any twists and turns, with almost no delay, and the two parties happily reached an agreement.
Soon, under the witness of Yuan Xi, the representative of Yuan Shaoyang, Sun Quan and Liu Bei formally signed a loan contract and completed the military and political handover in Xiapi. The details after that are not what Sun Quan worries about. Doing all this delayed him for several days, and Sun Quan was still in a hurry to go to Huaiyin to visit his mother.
However, Sun Quan wanted to leave, but someone wanted to hold him back.
"Brother Sun, after we say goodbye this time, I don't know when we will see each other again. Why not take this opportunity and let's have a few more drinks." Yuan Xi pulled Sun Quan and said.
"Since Brother Yuan is so reluctant to leave me, why don't you come with me to Huaiyin for a walk? We've already arrived at Xiapi, Huaiyin isn't far away, right?" Sun Quan said with a smile.
Yuan Xi's face stiffened and he smiled apologetically,
"I've been out for so long, it's time to go back. Next time, I will definitely come when I have time."
If he really dared to go to Huaiyin with Sun Quan, even if his motives were suspicious, Sun Quan might not let him go so easily.
"In that case, brother Yuan, let's meet again by fate." Sun Quan cupped his hands at Yuan Xi, turned around and left.
As a result, to Sun Quan's great surprise, Yuan Xi did not call out to him in the end. This guy can really endure it. What on earth did he do?
