Chapter 1342 Government and Opposition

Of course a man with a lot of money would know.

This is a coin that was passed down from Shu in the early years.

He had seen it when he was young.

At that time, this kind of coin was still criticized after it flowed into Jingzhou.

Finally, there were rumors that Liu Bei intended to mint such large sums of money in Jingzhou.

The man remembered clearly that at that time, his family had some wealth, and his parents were privately resentful of it.

Everyone said that Liu Bei was a hypocrite and didn't care about the lives of his people.

Therefore, the Wu people came from the south a few years later and were welcomed by many people in Jingzhou.

I just thought that I finally escaped Liu Bei's evil rule.

Who would have expected that within a few years of taking control of Jingzhou, the Sun family would have not only one hundred yuan, but five hundred in Daquan.

Then came the big spring of one thousand, the big spring of two thousand...

The Zhibai coins spread from Shu have become second only to banknotes and five-baht coins.

Even over the years, it has become increasingly rare.

Because the Shu people came to Jingzhou to do business, they could only collect hundreds of coins but could not get out.

So when the store said they charge 100 yuan, that's just an excuse.

Nowadays, hundreds of dollars are much harder to find than five baht dollars.

Although the big money in his hand could not buy food, the man still held it tightly and was unwilling to let go.

They were already his, and asking him to abandon them would be like abandoning his last hope.

But he took them and walked out of the grain store in a daze, but also with despair.

It was obviously a sunny summer day, but the man felt that the sky was dim and dull, and everything he looked at was dark.

The big iron coin was squeezed tightly in the palm of my hand, causing my palms to ache.

If he had known this, he might as well have had Liu Bei cast hundreds of coins in Jingzhou!

Thinking of his wife and children who were looking forward to him at home, the man felt even more sad, angry and hateful:

Everyone said that Liu's casting of hundreds of coins was exploiting the people, but what about Sun's casting of large springs?

Quan Qian Quan Qian, isn't it the name of the coin coined by Wang Mang when he usurped the Han Dynasty?

This Sun family is exactly the same as Wang Mang.

A thief!

National traitor!

The great thief of the country!

Wang Mang is a Han thief, and Sun is also a thief!

Thief Sun!

The turbulence that had just arisen in Nanjun did not affect Jiangdong at this time.

Because Jianye, the center of Jiangdong, is brewing a bigger storm.

After the ancestral temple sacrificial incident broke out, Mrs. Wang, the mother of the crown prince Sun He, was so frightened that she died.

The most important figures in the princelings, Gu Tan, his brother Gu Cheng, and Zhang Xiu were slandered by Quan Cong and others and exiled to Jiaozhou.

Lu Xun, the acting prime minister, was reprimanded by Sun Quan in public before the ancestral temple sacrifice incident and fell ill on his bed.

As for the prince himself, he was hated by Sun Quan, and his favor and trust gradually declined.

Especially when Sun Quan was ill, the prince's behavior in offering sacrifices in the ancestral temple really made Sun Quan very angry.

Even in the deepest part of Sun Quan's heart, there was a fear that even he himself might not be aware of.

It is not that he is afraid of what the prince will do, but that when he gets old and sick, everyone under him, including his biological son, will have different aspirations.

Even doing things that go against the wishes of the emperor himself.

So the more times like this, the more eager he is to take control of the situation in his own hands.

Under this mentality, Sun Quan's suppression of the prince and his party members was extremely harsh.

Nangong was under palace restrictions, so Sun Quan asked the prince to study behind closed doors without seeing any guests.

The prince could only stay alone in the Nangong Palace, and guests were not allowed in or out.

Under this situation, coupled with the fact that his mother was forced to die and His Majesty's attitude towards him became increasingly bad, Sun He could not help but feel a little anxious all day long.

But King Lu, who was originally forced to move outside the palace, was a blessing in disguise.

Although Lu Wang Sun Ba was also banned like the prince.

But King Lu's palace is not in the palace after all.

The Lu Palace was outside the palace, and guests were obviously not allowed to come and go, but secretly, Sun Ba's contact with the guests became more and more frequent.

Among these guests, the ones who were most valued by King Lu Sun Ba include Quan Ji, the son of the governor, and Sun Hong, Yang Zhu and others from Zhongshu Ling.

Zhongshu Ling Sun Hong is cunning and cunning

He had always been hated by Zhang Xiu, so he always resented Zhang Xiu in his heart.

During Shouchun's merit debate, he saw Zhang Xiu being demoted, so he took the opportunity to add insult to injury.

So he found an opportunity to slander Sun Quan, saying that Zhang Xiu had a similar character to his grandfather (Zhang Zhao).

On the road to exile in Jiaozhou, there were many expressions of injustice and disrespectful remarks.

Although Zhang Zhao ranked first among the civil servants of the Wu Kingdom, after Sun Quan became emperor, he and Zhang Zhao had many disputes and conflicts.

Zhang Zhao has an upright character. When he had a conflict with Sun Quan, he once forced Sun Quan to kneel down and admit his mistake.

Sun Quan also raised a sword against Zhang Zhao, even sealed Zhang Zhao's door with earth, and even burned the door of Zhang Zhao's house.

After Sun Quan, who was lying on the bed to recuperate, heard Sun Hong's words, he immediately remembered the past grudges between himself and Zhang Zhao.

On the spot, he slapped the bed angrily:

"Louhou Wangchen Jianjian is the elder of the country. Zhang Shusi (namely Zhang Xiu) inherited his grandfather's influence and was lucky enough to enter the dynasty."

"He doesn't want to repay the emperor's favor, but he treats me like a grandfather. It can be described as bullying me!"

In anger, he issued an edict to kill Zhang Xiu.

Sun Hongzhi is cunning and cunning, probably like this.

Yang Zhu, on the other hand, is from Guangling County, Xuzhou, and has gained considerable fame at a young age.

Later, he became an official in the Wu Kingdom, and by virtue of his reputation and his own talents, he was highly valued by Sun Quan.

However, after Lu Xun, who was a high-ranking general at the time, learned about this, he disapproved of Yang Zhu and believed that Yang Zhu was not behaving righteously and would eventually cause disaster and defeat.

So he persuaded Yang Zhu's brother Yang Mu to separate his family from Yang Zhu and establish another family.

Therefore, Lu Xun's advice to Quan Cong to kill his son was due to his character and not without reason.

However, as the Grand Governor, Quan Cong still had the confidence to fight against Lu Xun even though his position was inferior to that of Lu Xun.

As a junior, Yang Zhu did not dare to express his feelings towards Lu Xun, so he could only write it down secretly in his heart.

When the dispute between the two palaces arose, Yang Zhu knew that the crown prince's guests, including Gu Tan, Zhang Xiu and others, all had their own backgrounds.

Moreover, Lu Xun and others also had the merit of persuading the establishment.

Even if he supports the prince, he is still at the bottom of the ministers.

Not to mention that he was not favored by Lu Xun. Even if he supported the prince, he might still be ostracized by the prince's party.

It would be better to support King Lu.

If he succeeds in the future, he will not only be ranked first in the Conglong Skill, but he will also have the opportunity to vent his anger in front of Lu Xun.

Therefore, Yang Zhu actively made suggestions in front of King Lu Sun Ba, and soon became one of King Lu's confidants.

As soon as Sun Quan's ban came out, Yang Zhu secretly went to see Sun Ba, King of Lu, and offered advice:

"Now that the prince is living in seclusion in the Nangong Palace, he is not allowed to communicate with outsiders, and guests are not allowed to see the prince. Information between the two parties is blocked. This is our opportunity!"

When Sun Ba heard this, he quickly asked for advice:

"Why do you teach me, sir?"

Yang Zhu replied:

"The prince lives alone in the palace, is disliked by his majesty, and fails to consult with the guests. It is a time of panic. We can have people spread the news to make the prince afraid of being deposed."

"He is afraid of being deposed and has no one to talk to him. In a hurry, he will do something wrong. When the time comes, we will take the opportunity to speak to His Majesty. Even if His Majesty cannot get what he wants, we will definitely make His Majesty worse.

Prince."

Sun Ba was overjoyed and praised:

"Wonderful! Although I am banned at this time, the eldest princess (i.e. the princess) can enter and leave the palace freely. Moreover, she also hates the prince deeply, so she will be willing to do this for me!"

The prince's mother, Mrs. Wang, died of fear because the eldest princess exposed what the prince had done in the ancestral temple in front of your majesty.

It can be said that the eldest princess and the prince have reached the point where they will never stop fighting.

Now that she has the opportunity to attack the prince again, she will definitely not refuse.

After finishing speaking, Sun Ba looked at Yang Zhu again:

"Your Majesty is a wise king. No matter how much he hates the prince, he will still value the opinions of his courtiers."

"Now, although the Gu family has been exiled and the Zhang family has been sentenced to death, the prince still has the support of the general, the prince, and the prince's tutor in the court. What can be done?"

It's okay that Sun Ba didn't mention becoming a general, but as soon as he mentioned becoming a general, a fierce light flashed in Yang Zhu's eyes.

He wrote letters to his family saying that he was a bad person, and even persuaded his brother to separate from him and start a new family.

This is basically humiliating yourself publicly.

I will definitely pay you back in the future!

"Your Highness, if God wishes for his death, he will be driven crazy. The prince and his party, on the grounds that they are 'disrespecting concubines and disrespectful', have forced your highness to move out of the palace. What's worse, they want your majesty to live outside the palace."

Let His Highness leave Jianye and guard the place."

Hearing this, Sun Ba couldn't help but groan.

Look at the prince's Taifu (i.e. Wu Can), who not only insisted on establishing the distinction between direct concubine and concubine, but even requested that he be transferred out of the imperial court and stationed in Xiakou.

Looking at his own Lu Wangfu again, not only did he not turn towards him, but he stabbed him in the back without warning:

"I believe that the King of Lu was very virtuous and possessed both civil and military skills. It is appropriate today to control all directions and serve as an auxiliary to the vassals of the country. Promoting virtues and virtues and shining a bright light are the good rules of the country and are looked upon throughout the country."

"... I am foolish to think that the second palace should have descending and killing, and the order of ascending and descending is the foundation of enlightenment."

Listen!

How nice to say it, "Heaven upholds virtue and possesses both civil and military talents".

If Gu Zhen is so good, as the Prince of Lu, you should do your best to assist Gu in his fight for the position of crown prince.

Instead of taking the initiative as Lu Wangfu to bring out such a big trick on Gu.

Those who knew, said you were Prince Fu of Lu; those who didn’t know, thought you were the Crown Prince and Tutor.

So this time when he moved out of the palace, Sun Ba used the excuse that King Fu Nai of Lu was the minister's servant and was busy with state affairs, so he never invited Shi Yi even once.

When I become a prince in the future, I will definitely humiliate you, an old man!

When Yang Zhu talked about the place where King Lu left the town, he naturally knew what King Lu Fu said, so when he heard Sun Ba's groan, he understood in his heart.

I saw him smiling slightly:

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince is currently incommunicado with the outside world. There is no information from each other. Your Highness has decided to let the eldest princess enter the palace to suppress the Crown Prince's heart."

"And we can also spread some news in the outer court to disrupt the position of the prince's party! If they are in chaos and don't know the prince's news, they will keep writing to your majesty."

"Let His Majesty be in the right place. He is clearly a legitimate concubine. In order to consolidate the position of the Crown Prince, he will even bring up the matter of letting His Majesty leave the town again."

As he said that, he pointed at himself and said, "They may even drive people like me out of the capital."

"At that time, your Majesty will hate the prince even more inside. Outside, the actions of the prince's party will only make your majesty disgusted and will turn his anger on the prince."

"It can be said that if God wants him to die, he will be driven crazy!"

When Sun Ba heard this, he clapped his hands and shouted:

"Okay, okay!"

The plan was decided, and Sun Ba personally wrote a letter asking Yang Zhu to go to the Governor's Mansion to meet the eldest princess.

Princess Quan spared no effort to attack the prince.

Especially after Mrs. Wang's death, she knew that there was no possibility of reconciliation between herself and the prince.

If the prince ascends the throne one day, I am afraid that he will not end well.

Therefore, it is the best way to take advantage of His Majesty's alienation from the Crown Prince and take the opportunity to bring him down.

After receiving Sun Ba's letter, she did not hesitate for a moment and immediately entered the palace in the name of visiting a patient.

"By the way" I met Mrs. Pan who had just given birth to the prince Sun Liang.

Mrs. Pan had always wanted to be the queen, especially after she gave birth to the prince and Mrs. Wang died, her ambitions were even more eager to arouse and somewhat uncontrollable:

If he can be established as the queen, wouldn't his son have the opportunity to be established as the prince?

Although her ultimate goal is different from Sun Ba's, her current goal of overthrowing the prince is the same.

So after she had a secret consultation with Princess Quan, rumors soon spread secretly in the palace, saying that His Majesty intended to depose the Crown Prince.

The harm of Sun Quan not establishing a queen was finally revealed at this time.

Originally, when Mrs. Bu was here, although she did not have the title of queen, she acted as a queen and took charge of the affairs of the harem.

Sun Quan's harem was actually peaceful.

After Mrs. Bu passed away, Mrs. Wang wanted to imitate Mrs. Bu, but she didn't have Mrs. Bu's ability and skill.

In addition, the concubines moved to live outside the palace in the previous period, which caused chaos in the harem.

Now Sun Quan is ill, and no one in the harem can stand up to appease the leader. Not only are rumors spreading, but all the wives are doing their own things, creating chaos.

Over the past few days, Sun He had been hearing some true and false rumors, which made him panic.

At this time, when he heard that the rumors about deposing the prince were getting stronger and stronger, and they were well-founded, he became more and more frightened.

One day, he received news that Yang Zhu was going to the palace to see His Majesty.

This Yang Zhu is a close confidant of his brother. This person will definitely not have anything good to say about him when he meets His Majesty.

In desperation, the prince finally thought of a stupid trick:

He took advantage of the opportunity to visit the doctor and asked his servants to secretly hide under Sun Quan's bed, preparing to eavesdrop on the conversation between Sun Quan and Yang Zhu.

Sure enough, after he came out of Sun Quan's palace, he happened to see Yang Zhu waiting outside.

"Chen Zhu, pay homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."

When Yang Zhu saw the prince coming out, he didn't dare to show any disrespect and quickly saluted.

Sun He, on the other hand, was young and energetic. When he saw King Lu's confidant, he couldn't control his temper:

"I don't dare to accept your courtesy!"

After finishing speaking, he snorted angrily and walked away.

Thinking back to the time when Gu and King Lu lived together in the palace, wore the same clothes and ate the same food, Gu didn't have any dissatisfaction at all, and he didn't even treat him with the slightest slight.

But I didn't expect that he was so dissatisfied that he actually wanted to be the prince himself!

Sun He, whose eyes were filled with anger, inadvertently slowed down and looked back after turning a corner.

I happened to see Yang Zhu being led into His Majesty's palace by the small yellow gate.

Most of the anger in his eyes disappeared, replaced by some gloominess, mixed with a little panic.

Your Majesty, you don’t really want to kill me, the prince, do you?
