"It is said that running a newspaper is very complicated. It not only requires many paper mills, but also requires a large number of people to transcribe. We in Jiangdong do not have the financial resources and energy." Sun Quan acted relatively calmly at first, and then asked in surprise: "Is it possible? Wei Guo did not flow into the Yangtze River?"
"It turns out that Liu Bei often sent people to slander Wei and Jiangdong in the Yangtze River Newspaper in Jingzhou. It was forbidden to spread it during the reign of the late Emperor, so it has not been seen in the court for a long time. It can be seen occasionally among the people. It seems that King Wu's You have a good mind, and you can share such disgusting words with the ministers..." Xing Zhen shook her head and replied, not forgetting to tease a few words at the end.
Sun Quan smiled lightly. He deliberately did not remove the newspaper just now. It was Xing Zhen who took the initiative to ask. He wanted to use the Yangtze River Newspaper to express his attitude to Cao Pi. Jiangdong was nominally a vassal of the Wei State, but in fact they did not interfere in each other's internal affairs. The Wei State banned reading the Yangtze River Newspaper. , Jiangdong can’t help but be the proof.
"Liu Xuande worked hard to make paper, write articles, and transcribe it. Why don't we take a look? Besides, it also contains the other party's content. If you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger." Sun Quan stroked his purple beard calmly.
"King Wu is open-minded and Xing Zhen admires him endlessly..." Xing Zhen bowed her hands in salute.
Sun Quan nodded to express his approval, and then motioned to Zhang Zhao and said: "Xing Taichang came from afar to deliver the edict. The poor people in Jiangdong have no treasures to offer. Zibu can sort out the recent issues of the Yangtze River News and ask Taichang to take it back to Luoyang."
"Wei." Zhang Zhao secretly praised his master's good plan. Cao Pi would be furious after seeing the recent issues of the newspaper. He might send troops to attack Liu Bei, and Jiangdong could reap the benefits.
"Is this...appropriate?" Xing Zhen asked awkwardly.
"Xing Taichang first read the eleventh issue of Yankang. These articles are really shocking..." Zhang Zhao handed over the newspaper he had just read.
Xing Zhen's expression changed immediately after she took the newspaper. Zhuge Liang's article was in the most prominent position. Those contents were really confusing, and she thought to herself, "Your Majesty will go crazy after reading this, right?"
"King Wu... this newspaper..." Xing Zhen did not dare to read any more after reading a few lines, and the arrogant attitude on the carriage was not at all retained.
Sun Quan shook his head with regret, "Liu Xuande is a clan member of the Han Dynasty after all. How can he be willing to give up when he sees Han Zuo being replaced by His Majesty? So it makes sense to let the people below write articles to vent their anger. The next few issues of this year will contain content like this. ..”
"How can such a rebellious and unethical thing still appear in the Jiangdong court? Since the King of Wu has accepted your Majesty's grant, he should be consistent with the Wei State..." Xing Zhen stood up and asked with her hands in hand.
"It is better to defend the people than to defend the river. These things cannot be restrained. As Gu said just now, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. If Tai Chang goes back, he should advise your majesty to let go of the ban, otherwise Liu Bei's situation will not be easy. , In addition, we must send out powerful troops early to cleanse the world, and kill Liu Bei before the Yangtze River News can be stopped. I will also send troops to respond at that time..." Sun Quan used the Yangtze News to start to spread the flames.
"Uh... I will tell you what I said..." Xing Zhen swallowed.
"By the way, does your Majesty want to attack Liu Bei? Otherwise, how could he proclaim himself King of Wu without any reason?" Sun Quan pestered Xing Zhen to ask.
Xing Zhen shook her head quickly, "I have no involvement in the military affairs. As for the title of king and the nine bestowals, it is because King Wu asked your majesty to proclaim himself emperor last year. Now it is just a reward based on merit..."
"It's been a long time since we talked about merit and rewards. It took almost a year before I even remembered..." Zhang Zhao teased with a smile.
"It is very tedious to establish a country and build an ancestral temple. Your Majesty also has to take care of domestic affairs..." Xing Zhen responded weakly.
Sun Quan saw that Xing Zhen looked embarrassed, so he signaled to Zhang Zhao not to push too hard. Zhang Zhao understood and led the ministers to toast Xing Zhen. Xing Zhen could only resolve the embarrassment by drinking. Xing Zhen was drunk and was sent to the post house. Zhang Zhao also sent over the compiled newspapers.
The next day when Xing Zhen woke up from alcohol and saw the Yangtze River newspaper, which was like a TV series, she immediately lost her mind to stay in Jiangdong and hurried into the palace to bid farewell to Sun Quan.
Sun Quan saw that he could not keep him, so he asked Zhang Zhao to go to the dock to say goodbye.
Before Xing Zhen left, in order to regain face, she deliberately asked about the case of the Sima family's extermination.
Sun Quan used the facts of the case to prevaricate.
Zhuge Jin suddenly became suspicious. He looked at the retreating figures of Xing Zhen and Zhang Zhaoyuan, and carefully asked: "Master, why don't you continue to delay? The Sima family's case was forced by Cao Pi. You said that there are clues to the case, right?" Don’t you bring it upon yourself?”
"Don't worry Ziyu, Gu Ziyu has his own idea." Sun Quan did not tell Hu Ke's suggestion to others, but Cao Pi really wanted an answer to block the Wei scholars. He didn't mind hiding the dead Lu Ba from the Jiangdong officials. If Cao Pi uses this to commit fraud, he can deny it.
Zhuge Jin nodded thoughtfully, "Cao Pi made my lord king for no reason. I expect that something big will happen in the Wei Kingdom, so I can send someone to Ruxu to ask about the situation. I think General Zhou knows the details, but it is best not to send troops to Jiangdong... .”
"Tzuyu, please relax. Although Gu spoke sincerely in front of Xing Zhen, if Cao Pi wants Jiangdong to send troops, he must at least support him with some money and food, right?" Sun Quan responded with a smile.
Zhuge Jin was shocked and said: "Cao Pi can't even provide money and food. What if we anger Liu Bei too much and he decides to take Jiangdong first? The local nobles may not use all their strength..."
Sun Quan stroked his beard and smiled mysteriously: "Who said that after receiving Wei's money and food, I would immediately send troops? Doesn't it take time to build a ship? When the ship is built, the war will be over. If Cao Pi sends someone to hold him accountable, the worst I can do is to send Wei away. There are a few small boats in the country..."
"This... Your Majesty..." Zhuge Jin was speechless as he heard this, wondering when did the Lord become so cunning?
Sun Quan seemed to have read through Zhuge Jin's thoughts. He raised his head and sighed: "The so-called long-term illness makes a good doctor a good doctor. I have dealt with the 'profiteer' Lan Tian a lot. You have to learn some cunning methods to get around..."
Zhuge Jin shook his head secretly after hearing this. No matter how cunning Lantian is, he is still a minister. Sun Quan is a powerful monarch. If you also imitate his cunning, what will the civil and military officials in Jiangdong think?
At this time, Sun Quan was in a good mood, and Zhuge Jin did not express his thoughts. He planned to persuade Zhang Zhao another day, and he would never let Sun Quan become a person who broke his word.
Zhuge Jin resigned and left, and Sun Quan asked Hu Shi to secretly invite Hu Ke into the palace and ask Cao Wei if anything big had happened.
Hu Ke clasped his fists and complimented: "Your Majesty is really clever. According to the news sent back from Luoyang ten days ago, Liangzhou of Wei State has been uneasy recently, and Cao Pi may send troops to the northwest."
"So that's really the case..." Sun Quan frowned.
"In October, the leaders of Lu Shuihu in Liangzhou, including Zhiyuanduo and Yijian prostitutes, rebelled, and the Hexi Corridor area fell into war. Emperor Wei recalled Zou Qi, the former governor of Liangzhou, and appointed Yin Zhangji of Jingzhao as the governor of Liangzhou. He also sent generals such as Xia Houru and Fei Yao to Li_, Fanhe, Xianmei and other places to quell the rebellion. In November, Zhang Fei's troops from Wudu left the Qishan Road and killed the officers and soldiers between Xi County and Ji County. Unable to resist, Cao Pi deliberately mobilized troops from around Luoyang to suppress the rebellion..." Hu Ke explained in detail.
Sun Quan nodded and said to himself: "It turns out that the north and south of Liangzhou cannot be considered at both ends. Lu Shuihu should not be afraid. Zhang Fei is Cao Pi's biggest problem..."
