That afternoon, Sun Ce came to visit Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong carrying a lot of things. Now that the identity of the other party was known, Sun Ce immediately packed two jade bis, two jade tripods, and brought a few large pearls.
After packing up the simple gifts, Zhou Yu and I went together.
Speaking of which, Sun Ce had already prepared for a direct war with Liu Bei. After all, Yuan Shu's anger was obvious to all, and even the opponent's favorite screen was chopped into pieces. How could Sun Ce not prepare in advance under such circumstances?
As a result, Yuan Shu did not order the troops to be sent out. He just found a bunch of old things from home, and then sat there and looked at them quietly. Those things were Yuan Shu's playthings when he was young and things he and Yuan Shao played with.
Since Yuan Shu didn't speak, Sun Ce was just preparing for war. After all, his territory was also in a mess, and many troublesome things had not been dealt with. Although the previous battle was not considered a defeat, after all, the biggest hidden danger Liu Biao was eliminated, but to say
Yes, the current floods and refugees in Jingzhou have not been dealt with yet.
"Are we going like this?" Zhou Yu also frowned and felt a little headache when he saw Sun Ce carrying two jade tripods filled with various things. He had never done anything like soliciting strangers in person.
"Don't I go?" Sun Ce asked in confusion.
"I just feel a little ostentatious." Zhou Yu said with a headache looking at the two jade tripods held up by Sun Ce.
"Shouldn't I bring some gifts?" Sun Ce rolled his eyes.
"Then let's go." Zhou Yu didn't say anything else. Inexperience means inexperience. No matter how smart he is, there is no good way.
After that, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu came to visit directly with gifts. To be precise, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong knew that someone was coming to visit them before Sun Ce and Zhou Yu arrived.
"It looks like it's Sun Bofu and Zhou Gongjin." Zhang Zhao smiled and said, "Young men seem to be energetic when doing things, and this Sun Ce has a handsome face and a handsome appearance, and he does have the appearance of a hero."
"..." Zhang Hongli ignored Zhang Zhao. How could he not know what the other party was thinking? Isn't it because Liu Bei didn't give him a step and didn't want to go to Mount Tai?
"I went to greet them." Zhang Zhao twitched his lips. He had only learned about Sun Ce before, but had never seen it with his own eyes. But this time he actually saw it. What should I say? I just felt a sense of overlord's aura.
, there is a sense of walking like a dragon and a tiger walking, and it seems to be a good choice.
Well, the above are all Zhang Zhao's conjectures. In fact, he just likes Sun Ce and understands that Sun Ce captured Jing Xiang in a short period of time. He also has enough judgment on the opponent's ability. In addition, Sun Ce inherited Yuan Shu's legacy.
, the foundation and reserves are very strong.
Zhang Zhao really didn't want to go to Liu Bei's place. After Zhang Hong proposed to go back to Xuzhou, he had the idea of picking a taller one among the dwarfs. In the end, he actually met a person who seemed to have the temperament of a hero.
"What should I do next?" Sun Ce also visited Xian for the first time. Zhuge Jin had at least one acquaintance Pang Tong that time. It was not a visit to Xian. He could only visit his friends and ask about their current situation. Sun Ce didn't say anything.
That’s it.
As for the previous ones, they were all civil servants and generals who bowed to him when they met him, and even brought troops to surrender. This kind of visit with gifts has never happened before. Sun Ce is still wondering why the other party doesn't come to him...
"First give gifts to show our admiration, and then talk about topics that everyone is interested in." Zhou Yu thought for a while and said.
"I thought of Ziyu, let's go straight to the point." Sun Ce thought of the time Zhuge Jin talked about him, leaving you speechless, and finally he came on the stage with a domineering attitude and won instantly.
Zhou Yu was also helpless. He was not familiar with this kind of work, but if he wanted to invite such a big-name civil servant, he had to have someone with status. The problem was that he was really uneasy about Sun Ce coming, so he came himself.
Zhang Hong stared at Sun Ce downstairs. He also heard what Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were muttering, and there was a smile on his face. He had a great impression of the two people below, but it did not shake his determination.
Zhang Zhao opened the door and invited Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to come in. The three of them became lively after just a few words. Now, even if Sun Ce was stupid, he understood that he had done nothing and yet another capable minister was impressed by him.
"You two are invited, my brother Zhang Zigang is inside, but he has a bad temper, please forgive me." After Zhang Zhaosan made the relationship closer with a few words, he began to introduce Zhang Hong, what is going on with Zhou Yulian and the two of them now?
All understood.
"I've met Mr. Zhang." After the door was opened, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce came in and gave Zhang Hong a gift, while Zhang Hong bowed casually.
Afterwards, the exchanges between the four of them, excluding Sun Ce who didn't talk much, Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao had a great time chatting. Zhou Yu's half-full level of government affairs suddenly became clear under Zhang Zhao's explanation, and many of the government affairs that had been a headache were suddenly sorted out.
Come over, but Zhang Hong is obviously a little absent-minded.
As time went by, Sun Ce finally figured out that Zhang Hong was clearly out of touch and didn't even bother to say anything.
Zhou Yu didn't care at all. When it was time to add tea, add tea, add water, add water, he didn't show any cold treatment to Zhang Hong. In his opinion, if they could get Zhang Zhao today, their power would have grown explosively.
Although I feel a little sorry for the other person, it is better not to offend him at this time.
"Mr. Zhang, you see they are chatting so happily, why don't you speak?" Sun Ce also felt drowsy after listening to it. In order to cheer up, he started teasing Zhang Hong as if he was seeking death. It is said that Sun Ce had a death-defying spirit.
"I don't want to say it." Zhang Hong said coldly.
Until now, Sun Ce has not shown anything that shocked Zhang Hong. Naturally, he has no interest. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong have nothing to persuade. Every top wise man has his own beliefs, although not like Li You.
For the sake of his ideal, he is willing to kill himself, but it is difficult to waver.
"Oh, come with me." Sun Ce went straight to the point. For some reason, he suddenly felt that Zhang Hong's old face was a bit handsome.
Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao almost didn't know what to say. Did they invite people like this? Why don't they say this?
"Give me a reason." Zhang Hong looked at Sun Ce, slightly interested.
"I think you're quite pleasing to the eye." Sun Ce told the truth directly.
"I don't think you are pleasing to the eye." Zhang Hong is also a wonderful person and gave such a direct answer.
"It doesn't matter. I think it's fine as long as you like it. Anyway, it's you who do it with me, not me with you." Sun Ce directly rejected Zhang Hong's proposal.
"That's a good reason, but I don't think there's any point in doing it with you." Zhang Hong drank a bottle of wine, then looked at the clouds outside the window and said slowly, his flat tone full of rejection.
