The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 394 Continually Probing
Lu Su knew that Sun Quan was already suspicious of him. If Sun Ce was still alive, Li Yuan's plan of alienation would not work at all, but Sun Quan was suspicious by nature, and his personality was completely different from Sun Ce's, so he still fell for Li Yuan's tricks, and they hadn't made a comeback yet. , but internal cracks have already appeared, so it seems that it is almost impossible to defeat Li Yuan.

After Sun Quan returned to his room, his mood became very depressed. He has never been happy since he came to Xiapi. He thought that with Zhou Yu's assistance and a large number of generals following him, it would only take a few years to make a comeback, but now he is the most reliable person But he became someone he couldn't trust, which made him feel a little powerless. This was the first time he discovered how important it is to cultivate one's own power.

"What Wen Xu said is indeed reasonable. It seems that it is time for me to choose the right candidate." Sun Quan said to himself. In his opinion, Lu Su, Zhou Tai and Chen Wu are all people who cannot be attracted. Lu Su and Zhou Yu They are good friends, and today's performance makes him even more suspicious, so Lu Su is not the target of his win-win. As for Zhou Tai and Chen Wu, who are Zhou Yu's subordinates and have followed Zhou Yu for a long time, they cannot be easily trusted by him.

After thinking about it, Sun Quan decided to start with the second Zhang. The second Zhang is Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong. Although they both have the same surname Zhang and similar names, they are not brothers. Both of them have extraordinary talents, and they can even be regarded as Sun Quan's teacher. Trust them.

The next day, Sun Quan met Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong in his room. For Sun Quan, the most important thing at the moment was not revenge, but to cultivate his own power to counter Zhou Yu.

"Subordinates see the Patriarch!" Two Zhangs saluted Sun Quan at the same time.

As the head of the family, Sun Quan lived in the best room, but he was quite simple, without extravagance and waste, and there was no decoration in the room, only two bookshelves, a table and a bed. For him to win the appreciation of two.

"Gentlemen, get up quickly, there is no need to be polite." Sun Quan raised the two with both hands. Both of them are very old, and they are both over 50 years old this year, so even Sun Quan should be respectful to them.

Erzhang is very famous in Jiangdong. Sun Ce personally invited them out of the mountain before the official formation of troops. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu have been fighting all year round, and basically have no time to deal with political affairs, so Jiangdong's political affairs are almost entirely dependent on Erzhang. Their outstanding performance He has made a lot of contributions to Jiangdong. Without them sitting in the rear, Sun Ce would not be able to go everywhere with peace of mind, so they are very important figures to the Sun family.

"I don't know what the Patriarch has ordered?" Zhang Zhao asked, clasping his hands.

"Have you two heard what happened recently?" Sun Quan sat down at the table and poured tea for the two himself.

"Please tell the Patriarch." The two Zhangs glanced at each other, unable to figure out what Sun Quan wanted to say.

"Gong Jin and Li Yuan met a few days ago, and they had a good conversation. Do you two think there is something wrong with it?" Sun Quan reminded.

"Gong Jin met with Li Yuan, why did he meet with Li Yuan?" Zhang Hong couldn't figure it out. They and Li Yuan were enemies, but Zhou Yu went to meet Li Yuan and had a good conversation. There must be something in it. Unknown question.

"It's a fact. My personal guards saw that they had a happy conversation. I also don't understand why Gong Jin met Li Yuan. Could it be that he doesn't want to work for my Sun family?" Sun Quan said deliberately.

It was fine if Sun Quan didn't say anything, but Zhang Hong was taken aback when he said it, and he quickly said: "The Patriarch may have worried too much. Gong Jin made countless contributions with the lord in the early years, and was loyal to the Sun family. The Sun family works, I believe that even if Li Yuan has a good tongue, he will not be able to persuade Gong Jin to betray him."

Erzhang knew Zhou Yu's character very well, not to mention that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce had a very deep friendship, and Sun Ce died indirectly because of Li Yuan. In their view, it was absolutely impossible for Zhou Yu to join the enemy.

Zhang Hong's reversal was beyond Sun Quan's expectation. He didn't expect that even Er Zhang was also speaking for Zhou Yu, but he continued to test: "Hahahaha, of course I know, Gong Jin will not betray us. , but if this kind of thing happens, what do you think should be done?"

Zhang Zhao had already sensed something was wrong. As a subject, he knew how to answer, and said without hesitation: "If this kind of thing really happens, we will follow the Patriarch to the death and will not let him go easily."

Seeing that Zhang Hong didn't respond, Zhang Zhao gently poked him with his elbow.Zhang Hong immediately reacted and said the same thing.

"Hahahaha, the two gentlemen are indeed loyal, and I feel at ease with you here." Sun Quan smiled with satisfaction.

"Dare to ask the Patriarch, is it Gongjin..." Zhang Hong felt that there was a conflict between Sun Quan and Zhou Yu.

"Don't panic, I just asked casually just now, don't take it to heart." Sun Quan signaled Er Zhang not to be nervous.The two looked at each other. Although they both knew that Sun Quan was not telling the truth, they did not continue to ask. If they continued to ask, it would definitely cause Sun Quan's dissatisfaction.

"You two, Zijing has purchased several shops in Xiapi yesterday. With these shops, we will have a source of income and no longer need to be restrained by Li Yuan." Sun Quan told Er Zhang what happened yesterday.

"That's really gratifying, but things are really going well. I heard that the Mi family has established a chamber of commerce in Xuzhou. Anyone who does business in Xiapi must first join his chamber of commerce, otherwise it is impossible to do business in Xiapi and buy Shops also need to be approved by them, Mi Zhu, the head of the Mi family, works under Li Yuan's command and is also Li Yuan's person, I thought Zijing would be blocked in every possible way from buying a shop, but now it seems that things are going very smoothly." Zhang Zhao also I thought it was Lu Su who solved the matter quickly with great powers.

Sun Quan smiled meaningfully and said: "You don't know, Li Yuan not only didn't stop us, but also sold the shop to Zijing at a low price, and gave Zijing countless valuables as gifts after the incident. Jing's ability, or does Li Yuan have ulterior motives?"

"There is still such a thing. Could it be that Li Yuan wants to buy Zijing?" Zhang Hong said casually, but quickly denied this idea. Li Yuan couldn't afford to spend so much effort to buy Lu Su. Lu Su really has the ability. But Lun's reputation is not as great as them and Zhou Yu, so it should not be a target for bribery. If you want to buy, you are also buying them or Zhou Yu.

Sun Quan had his own ideas, but he didn't explain it. He said, "You two, I plan to hand over the shop that Zijing bought to you. Can you take care of it for me?"

"Leave it to us to take care of it? But didn't Zijing buy it?" Zhang Hong hadn't reacted yet.
