Facing Liu Chan's clear and cute eyes, Mi Yang stood up and bowed to him and said:
"The reason why Sun Quan's son is so sure that our court will accept Sun's body is all because of the so-called integrity."
Since Sun Shangxiang and Liu Bei had long been at peace with each other in the official Han Dynasty, Mi Yang called Sun Shangxiang the Sun family.
Mi Yang's words revealed that Sun Quan thought he could control the Han Dynasty.
After all, the Han Dynasty has always flaunted the orthodoxy of the world, and the founder of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei, is also famous for his benevolence and righteousness. This is why "a gentleman can bully others."
This was also the reason why Zhuge Liang couldn't make up his mind for a while.
But Mi Yang's firm tone and wise eyes made Zhuge Liang realize that Mi Yang must already have a way to unravel Sun Quan's sinister intentions.
Therefore, the next moment he looked at Mi Yang with an expectant look.
Under the gaze of Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang, Mi Yang expressed his views on the matter:
"Our dynasty will never welcome Sun's body into Chang'an in the name of the late emperor's wife."
Regarding this, Mi Yang's attitude is very firm.
Because if this was not done, it would undoubtedly be fulfilling Sun Quan's wish and giving Liu Bei a hard slap in the face.
After hearing Mi Yang's firm attitude, Zhuge Liang nodded slightly. He had the same attitude as Mi Yang.
It's just that attitude is easy to come up with, but proper solutions are more important.
What did not disappoint Zhuge Liang and Liu Chan was that Mi Yang's next answer made Mr. Zhang stand up with joy.
"Sun Quan wants to use the word "jieyi" to control our dynasty, but doesn't Sun Quan know that "jieyi" can be divided into big and small?"
“The righteousness between husband and wife is a small thing, but the righteousness between a monarch and his ministers is a great thing.
There is a saying in "The Book of Songs": In the whole world, is it the land of the king; on the shore of the land, is it the minister of the king?
Although Sun Quan braved the disgrace of the world to proclaim himself emperor and establish a country, wouldn't there be only one loyal minister in Jiangdong?
I believe that the Sun family did not follow the late emperor because of the love between husband and wife, but because of the righteousness of the emperor and his ministers who have been frightened for four hundred years, and because of the Sun family of Wu County who has been loyal and loyal for hundreds of years and disdains Sun Quan's behavior, and is angry and throws himself into the river."
As soon as Mi Yang finished speaking, Zhang Fei's loud laughter suddenly appeared in Chaoyang Palace.
"Wonderful, wonderful."
While praising Mi Yang, Zhang Fei walked straight up to Mi Yang, patted his shoulder and continued laughing:
"How could I forget that when we were in Jingzhou, you had the ability to be cunning and glib."
Zhang Fei's compliments to Mi Yang can be said to be without any pretense, but when Zhang Fei's compliments fall into Mi Yang's ears, why does he always feel a little weird?
Third Uncle, sometimes it’s nice if you just smile and don’t brag.
While Zhang Fei laughed, Zhuge Liang also had a smile on his face - it was indeed wonderful.
Mi Yang's words fundamentally solved Sun Quan's worry about using Sun Shangxiang's body to discredit the Han Dynasty.
The most important thing is that if everything is done according to what Mi Yang said, then it will only be Sun Quan who will be embarrassed in front of the world.
Even his own sister disdained his betrayal of the Han Dynasty, and even resorted to a vehement act of committing suicide by throwing himself into the river as a revolt. Under such tragic and tragic colors, the Wu Dynasty established by Sun Quan would only arouse disgust and disdain in the hearts of most people in the world.
.
In this way, it can also invisibly deepen the concept in the minds of the world that the great Han is the orthodoxy of the world.
Killing three birds with one stone, why not?
Liu Chan, who was sitting on the throne, did not expect to be as profound as Zhuge Liang, but when he saw that Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang both agreed with Mi Yang's words, he knew what he should do next.
"It is exactly what the Great Sima said. I will prepare an edict and declare it to the world according to what the Great Sima said."
Liu Chan, who felt that he had handled a difficult matter, was in a particularly good mood.
Mi Yang then made a suggestion:
"According to what General Zhendong said in his memorial, in a few days at most, the anti-Wu mission will arrive outside Chang'an City.
I would like to take charge of all matters related to welcoming the anti-Wu mission."
Mi Yang's sudden request was beyond Liu Chan's expectation.
According to the rules of the past, when envoys come to visit, they are usually responsible for such matters.
As for Mi Yang, being the great Sima of the Han Dynasty, it doesn't mean that he can't take care of such things. It can only be said that he is responsible for such things, and he looks down upon the envoys sent by Sun Quan.
"The Great Sima takes care of many things every day, and only a few messengers will not tire the Great Sima."
Liu Chan expressed his concern for Mi Yang in a timely manner - what kind of ox and horse are worthy of his Grand Sima to greet him?
Facing Liu Chan's concern, Mi Yang smiled and told Liu Chan the reason why he invited himself:
"The child Sun Quan used to eat flies in the toilet, and the flies were like dogs and dogs. He drove them away and returned them. He always thought about despicable and disgusting plots in his heart.
Once or twice is fine, but if you let him do it all the time, it will disturb my great man's purity!
I am willing to serve your Majesty once and for all."
Mi Yang has never been a good-tempered person, especially towards Sun Quan.
Once and for all?
Mi Yang's metaphor of Sun Quan aroused the same sentiments among Liu Chan, Zhuge Liang, and Zhang Fei.
But what method should be used to completely get rid of Sun Quan, this annoying big fly?
Liu Chan, Zhuge Liang, and Zhang Fei all had deep expectations in their eyes.
At this moment, the three of them vaguely remembered that before ravaging the Wei army, ravaging Jiangdong was Mi Yang's specialty!
Thinking of this, Liu Chan couldn't help but get a little excited.
"Da, Da Sima, just do what you can, I'll wait and see."
...
On the vast land of Guanzhong, there is a team of envoys, numbering around a hundred people, marching slowly.
Leading this envoy team was Zhang Wen, who was sent to Chang'an as an envoy on the order of Sun Quan.
Being appointed as an envoy by Sun Quan, Zhang Wen was naturally highly valued by Sun Quan.
In terms of reputation, Zhang Wen was not only the leader among celebrities in Jiangdong, but also had a great reputation throughout the world.
As for eloquence and culture, Zhang Wen, who was smart and well-educated since childhood, often performed surprisingly well.
But Zhang Wen, who had high hopes for Sun Quan, saw a look of wonder on his face from time to time when he opened the curtain and looked out while sitting in the carriage.
In Zhang Wen's eyes, the newly cultivated fields were exuding a joyful brilliance under the sunlight.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In the seemingly endless vast fields, many old farmers in brown clothes are working hard sowing seeds with their families in the fields.
Being exposed to the sun for a long time will inevitably make people feel hot.
But even though his face was dripping with sweat, in Zhang Wen's sight, he could not see the tired look on the faces of the people working in the fields.
On the contrary, almost every working person has a happy smile on his face.
Of course, what can prove the happiness of the people in Guanzhong is not only the smiles on their faces, but also the songs of blessing for a good harvest that fill the world from time to time.
As he got closer to Chang'an City, Zhang Wen saw more than that.
Zhang Wen could vaguely see that among the crisscrossing fields, there were some strong men running and supervising from time to time.
Those strong men were all physically handicapped, but their faces had a perseverance that could only be seen on the faces of elite soldiers. This made Zhang Wen realize that these people were probably the "three leaders."
Jiangdong has always regarded Mi Yang as his number one enemy, so all actions related to Mi Yang have always been the top priority of Soochow intelligence.
In this case, it is natural that Zhang Wen, as an important minister in Jiangdong, would not know about the "Three Chiefs System" that originally caused the turmoil in Liangzhou.
As a member of a wealthy family, Zhang Wen instinctively had an aversion to the "Three Chiefs System". When he was in Jiangdong, Zhang Wen often heard friends ridiculing Mi Yang's "Three Chiefs System" as a means for him to seek power and gain.
The three chiefs who directly control the grassroots are all served by disabled Han soldiers.
As Mi Yang, who has an unparalleled reputation in the Han army, couldn't he just use this move to let his authority penetrate into all aspects of society?
All Jiangdong celebrities who thought they had seen through Mi Yang's plot once ridiculed Mi Yang's wolfish ambitions.
But as he entered Guanzhong in person, Zhang Wen could clearly sense that the "Three Leaders System" was not as scourge as rumored.
Otherwise, as a common man at the bottom, why would he show no fear at all when he was "reprimanded" by the Third Chief?
What Zhang Wen didn't know was that the three chiefs walking between the fields were not scolding the people working in the fields, but teaching them.
Guanzhong had been in turmoil for many years, and there were tens of thousands of refugees in various places. After the Han army entered Chang'an, Zhuge Liang began to plan the resettlement of the refugees.
Refugees have been on the run for many years, and farmland has always been a luxury for them. This has resulted in many young refugees not knowing how to work at all.
And in this world, not in future generations, crop yields at that time placed great emphasis on the experience and skills of cultivators.
Therefore, in order to cultivate the farming skills of young refugees as soon as possible, Zhuge Liang ordered the three chiefs to teach them in the fields every day.
No matter how low the official position of the Third Chief is, he is still an official.
In the past, it was fine if officials did not harm the people, not to mention that they would not avoid hardships to teach the people?
This is almost something that can only exist in the fantasy of ancient books. Unexpectedly, it actually happened in Zhang Wen's eyes today.
The smart Zhang Wen quickly discovered this through constant observation.
After realizing this, Zhang Wen looked envious and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Because Zhang Wen also understood at this moment why every common person has a happy smile on his face. The reason is nothing more than the "equal land system" that actually grants land.
Zhang Wen was sighing. While the Han Dynasty was booming in people's livelihood and showing a vibrant atmosphere, Jiangdong was still in a state of dissipation and dissatisfaction, unreasonably criticizing the Han Dynasty's "New Deal."
Not only was Zhang Wen on the chariot, there was also a famous scholar sitting next to Zhang Wen.
This famous scholar was Zhang Wen's deputy envoy, named Zhou Li.
Although Zhou Li is not as famous as Zhang Wen, he is still one of the most famous heroes of the Jiangdong generation in recent times.
Sun Quan specifically asked Zhou Li to serve as Zhang Wen's deputy envoy because Zhou Li was more alert than Zhang Wen and could accomplish some things for him privately.
After the alert Zhou Li saw Zhang Wen's contradictory expression, dark lines began to appear on his face.
Has he forgotten his identity?
Out of respect for Zhang Wen, the envoy, Zhou Li felt that he might have misunderstood him, so he couldn't help but ask:
"Why did Mr. Zhang sigh?"
After hearing Zhou Li's inquiry, Zhang Wen, who urgently needed to vent his thoughts to others, immediately answered:
"Earlier, I heard that Kong Minggong's governance was unparalleled in the world. Today, when I see the people's livelihood in Guanzhong, I know that what he said is true.
The Great War in Guanzhong ended only a few months ago. In this short period of time, Kong Minggong was able to not only appease the restless refugees, but also cultivated large areas of barren fields. Such good governance was comparable to that of the sages before him."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Wen seemed to still have something to say and was still thinking about what to say.
But just when Zhang Wen was about to speak, Zhou Li, who really couldn't stand listening, couldn't help but said:
"Zhang Huishu, don't forget why His Majesty sent us here this time!"
"Before you and I left, Your Majesty held our hands and told me what he was saying so many times!"
Zhou Li's two consecutive rhetorical questions instantly choked Zhang Wen.
How could Zhang Wen forget?
"Promote Liu's evil and do not humiliate the country."
Thinking of these two things Sun Quan told him, Zhang Wen immediately became silent.
As a celebrity, it is what he should do to serve the country as an envoy without humiliating the country.
But if given the choice to promote Liu's evil, Zhang Wen really didn't want to do it.
However, those who serve others often cannot help themselves.
Seeing that Zhang Wen finally fell silent, Zhou Li said vigorously:
"After Liu's death, the Mi thieves in the Western Dynasty were the most hated.
In addition, the reputation of thieves is far and wide. When they learn that we are coming, I wonder what evil methods they will come up with to humiliate us.
Although we dare not compare ourselves with the sages Tang Ju and Ban Chao, we should still show our magnanimity as a great nation in Soochow."
"In order not to be humiliated by thieves, why should you fear death?"
I don’t know whether Zhou Li was cheering for Zhang Wen or himself, but Zhou Li’s words were very firm.
Should he say it or not, Zhou Li felt as if his whole body was glowing after he said these words.
Under Zhou Li's influence, Zhang Wen's expression gradually became firmer.
The rising stars all have such courage, let alone myself?
Just when Zhang Wen and Zhou Li looked at each other and smiled, thinking about writing a generous diplomatic example together, the two people sitting in the chariot noticed something strange.
They felt the earth shaking.
At first, they thought it was an illusion. How could the perfectly good earth move?
But as time went by, with their hands trembling slightly, they realized that this was not an illusion.
After realizing this, Zhang Wen and Zhou Li, who were a little panicked, quickly called the parking team, and then they got out of the carriage and looked around.
After the convoy stopped, the vibration coming from the ground became more and more intense. As they observed, Zhang Wen and Zhou Li also discovered where the vibration was coming from.
I saw that from the distance in the direction of Chang'an, a large piece of smoke and dust was emerging, as if it could cover the sky.
The vast swath of smoke and dust was like a demonic barrier that could swallow everything, approaching them quickly with a rumbling roar and unstoppable power.
How had Zhang Wen and Zhou Li, who had rarely been on the battlefield, seen this scene?
Soon, an emotion called fear emerged in the hearts of Zhang Wen and Zhou Li.
And this emotion was aroused to the maximum for a while after Zhang Wen and Zhou Li saw a flag flying high.
That flag was engraved with four characters: dragons and phoenixes:
"Admiral Tiance!"
he came?!
Subconsciously, Zhou Li nervously held Zhang Wen's hand.
At this moment, Zhang Wen noticed that Zhou Li's palms were so wet!
