Lu Xun was greatly shocked when he heard that although those private soldiers were going to be returned to the public, they were still the commanders in the end. This was almost the same as before, just like the left hand was the right hand. Those families who provided money and food must be willing. Lan Tian's thoughtfulness and caution made him
Lu Xun's admiration continued to deepen.
While Lu Xun was still immersed in shock, Lan Tian's voice came to his ears again: "Yuzhang and Luling adopt the Jiaozhou new system, so there is no need to tilt resources. What I just called unified deployment is between Danyang, Kuaiji, and Wujun."
"Oh? That's preferable." Lu Xun nodded lightly.
"Now that Boyan has figured it out, this matter must be done well. You guys can discuss it with me, Mr. Liu Cao. Is there no problem?" Lan Tianxin said that there were six more county-level carrot pits. It is estimated that no one will stand up and object.
"Yes." Lu Xun nodded slightly, and then asked with a stern look: "The general will come back later. I heard that many officials from the Huaisi line went to Yuzhang with Mancai (Yan Zhen). This move by the governor
Will you be resented?"
Lantian was very pleased after hearing this. Lu Xun was the only one who was worried about him being criticized. He said in his heart that he would recommend him to His Majesty based on this alone. Then he smiled and said: "The sojourner who was born in Huaisi often has conflicts with the Jiangdong scholars. Now we are separated.
In both places, each one relies on their own abilities, and whichever one is better will be judged by their political performance. Don’t you think it’s better this way? Everyone is volunteering, so no one will resent me.”
"Well, the general will not be as considerate as the emperor." Lu Xun thought to himself. About the little Yuzhang, most of the people from the Huaisi sect have gone to Huaisi. If they don't manage it well, people will laugh at it. I don't know what to do with the remaining half.
"Jiangdong has been pacified. I don't know what you will do with the Sun family clan who are trapped in Jianye." Seeing that the official business had been finished, Lu Xun took the opportunity to ask about personal matters.
Lu Xun ostensibly asked about the Sun clan, but actually wanted to know how to deal with Sun Shao. After Sun Ce died, he left behind a son and three daughters. The eldest daughter married Gu Yong's eldest son Gu Shao, the second daughter married Zhu Ji, the second son of Zhu Zhi, an important minister, and the younger daughter married Zhu Ji.
She was given to Lu Xun as his wife because she was close in age to Sun Shao and had a better relationship as brother and sister.
In the capitulation coup launched by Zhang Zhao, the husbands of Sun Ce's three daughters were all from wealthy families and were not implicated in the coup. Instead, Sun Shao had been imprisoned in the mansion. In fact, Sun Shao had been treated as a pet by Sun Quan for a long time because of his sensitive status.
'If you keep him, it's impossible to grant him real power like Sun Song and Sun Lin did.
Through Yu Xiu's information, Lan Tian had already grasped clues that Sun Quan didn't even know about. Mrs. Lu had a good relationship with Sun Shao's brother and sister. Although they had no contact on the surface, Lu Xun was secretly taking care of Sun Shao. So as soon as Lu Xun's words came out, Lan Tian
Then you know what he wants to say.
"Sun Zhongmou is a good or bad prince. How to arrange these Sun clan members is naturally decided by His Majesty. My petition for merit has been written and will be sent to Chang'an soon. I will understand it when the imperial edict is delivered."
"The Lord is His Majesty's right-hand man. Your opinion is very important. Don't you have any suggestions?" Lu Xun asked expectantly.
Lan Tian smiled slightly: "There are quite a few such situations. Couldn't Boyan be so smart and guess it? Jiangdong has been run by the Sun family for twenty years. If he is allowed to stay in Yangzhou, there may be a possibility of a resurgence. There is a high probability that it will be Liu Zhang.
, like Zhang Lu, moved to another place to live in peace for the rest of his life.”
"Uh, Mr. Fu, can you help me leave one person behind?" Lu Xun quickly lowered his head and clasped his fists.
Lan Tian raised his hand to support her and joked with a smile: "I heard that Sun Quan's harem is full of stunning women. Could it be that Boyan fell in love with a certain lady?"
"Fu Jun, you are joking. My brother-in-law has mediocre qualifications and has moved to another place without anyone to take care of him. It really doesn't make people feel at ease. Can Mr. Fu be kind enough to keep Sun Shao? The general can still take care of him." Lu Xun pleads again with his fists clasped.
"Hahaha, I know that Boyan is the head of the Lu family, so I don't want to be so concerned about my wife's family affairs." Lan Tian stroked his beard and laughed.
"I can't let go of my in-laws. My wife and brother have not been happy these years, so I will help if I can. If you find it difficult, just pretend that Lu Xun didn't mention it."
Lan Tian stood up and walked to Lu Xun, patting him on the shoulder to comfort him: "Bo Yan is a person who values ​​love and righteousness. I don't have to sell other people's favors. How can I not do something if you ask me? I'll take care of this matter."
It’s all over me.”
"Thank you, Mr. Lu." Lu Xun cupped his fists and thanked him.
"You are of the same age as me, so there is no need to be so polite. I sincerely make you my friend. No outsider can call me by my cousin. What does Boyan think?" Lantian looked at Lu Xun with a sincere expression.
Lu Xun wanted to agree, but his cautious character made him hesitate when he spoke. Seeing this, Lan Tian continued to ask: "Bo Yan is in such a difficult position, is it because he is afraid of my name, Xuan Owl?"
"No, no, I'm just afraid of climbing too high." Lu Xun was still polite.
Lan Tian smiled and teased: "Bo Yan was born in a wealthy family in Jiangdong, so he would look up to me, a farmer from Xiaopei? I should be the one to look up to him, right? After all, I am from a commoner family, so it is normal for me to be looked down upon."
Lu Xun was startled when he heard this, and quickly waved his hand to explain: "Fu Ziyu previously helped General Guan defeat the Wu and Wei coalition forces, and now he will destroy Wu within three months. Who in the world dares to look down upon me? What I call high-ranking is not a family matter, in fact it is just about learning."
"Being able to be called a cousin is progress. Confucius said, 'Three people walking together must have my teacher.' In fact, there is no distinction between talent and learning, but the way of proficiency is different. From today on, we are friends. I came to Yangzhou to serve as an official.
Guest, as a friend, you must remember to help." Lan Tian deliberately joked.
"Don't worry, Ziyu, I will try my best to help you." Lu Xun nodded lightly, wondering why we became friends inexplicably? What exactly does Mr. Fu like about me? He was threatening me not long ago, which is really hard to understand.
"Well, with Boyan's help, Yangzhou will be worry-free." Lan Tian clapped his hands happily. Suddenly he changed the subject and whispered to Lu Xun: "I will write a memorial tonight and send an envoy to the capital tomorrow. The entourage is tentatively scheduled."
Zhong Si (Zhang Cheng) and Hui Shu (Zhang Wen), we had a very good conversation with you just now, why don't I remove Hui Shu and let you go to see His Majesty in his place?"
Lantian was very particular about selecting his entourage. The Huaisi faction and the Jiangdong faction each chose one person. Lu Xun believed that Zhang Cheng was chosen to reward Zhang Zhao, and Zhang Wen was chosen to reward Yu Xiu. The two of them were the two main pushers for Jianye's surrender.
It can also be said that they were the two major contributors to the destruction of Wu, so Lu Xun did not intend to take away their rewards.
"Since Ziyu has selected the people, how can I take them away at will? I'd better meet with Your Majesty later."
"Bo Yan must think carefully. If he wants to achieve success in his official career, the most important thing is to get His Majesty's approval. This time I go to the capital to bring the merits of destroying Wu. This kind of opportunity will never happen again in the future."
Lu Xun reacted very quickly and immediately found a valid reason. He said solemnly: "It will take several months to go back and forth to the capital. Tens of thousands of soldiers outside the city have not yet settled down, and the affairs of Liucao Yamen have not been completed. I
Even if you want to see His Majesty again, you can't delay Ziyu's business. If you treat me as a friend, I have to reciprocate."
"Haha, you are my friend in vain. I also like people who do practical things. If the time is right, I will go to Beijing and I will definitely bring you with me." Lan Tian nodded happily.
Lu Xun cupped his fists and saluted: "Ziyu is interested."
Lan Tian prepared a basin of warm water for the Jiangdong nobles. Boiling it slowly would cause the frogs in the basin to die inadvertently. Now with Lu Xun's help, this time will be greatly advanced.
In early October, Lantian sent Song Chen as an envoy, along with Zhang Cheng and Zhang Wen, carrying gifts and sailing to Chang'an to meet Liu Bei.
The official ship was in the Yangtze River and the Han River was unobstructed. When passing Jingzhou, he learned that Cao Xiu had reduced his defense line and defended Wancheng. Guan Yu also took this opportunity to let his soldiers rest and recuperate.
Song Chenxin said that every time Mr. Song made an attack from the east to the west, the Wei State was very cooperative in deploying and adjusting. They probably felt the pressure from Huainan at this time, and the conspiracy was indeed unsolvable.
