The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 51 Planning a trip
After Wang Meng came forward, there were obvious results immediately, and the four teachers who had good friends with Wang Meng all agreed to enter Shu.The remaining two teachers also agreed under Shi Guangyuan's persuasion.So, under the persuasion of the eight teachers, the students of the School of Economics finally stopped making trouble, and finally nearly 300 people agreed to enter Shu.

Among the more than a hundred people who disagreed, there were about 50 children of local tyrants who were reluctant to leave their homes and go outside to suffer.The remaining 60 people were all unable to relocate due to financial constraints at home.

Liu Chan is unwilling to pay attention to the former type of people, no matter how much he persuades, it is useless.But Liu Chan couldn’t ignore the latter kind of poor students, so he asked Zu Wen to check the funds of the National Academy of Medicine, and found that over the past year, some wealthy businessmen sent their children or servants to the accounting department for training, so they received a lot of funding. The National Academy of Medicine is fully capable of subsidizing their travel expenses to Sichuan.

Three days later, Zhang Fangping finally gave Liu Chan a letter of approval, and he was willing to bring his clansmen to Shu together.Liu Chan was overjoyed, and immediately convened a board meeting, and invited Zhang Fangping and Shi Guangyuan to discuss all the specific matters of the relocation.

After discussing and discussing behind closed doors for two days and nights, they finally decided on the time of relocation, the route to take, and the placement of students after they passed.

After returning home, Liu Chan finally let out a long breath, as if he felt relieved all of a sudden.He looked around, he had lived in this house for several years, and suddenly felt a little bit reluctant.

Only then did Liu Chan realize that it must be very sad for someone like Zhang Fangping who has lived in the same place for decades to move thousands of miles away at once.After I left Jiangling this time, if I want to come back here in the future, I don't know that it will be a matter of the year of the monkey.

Liu Chan suddenly thought of Sun Shangxiang—the mother who married Liu Bei at a young age and was tricked back to Jiangdong by Zhou Shan.Liu Chan's eyes couldn't help turning red.

An idea came to Liu Chan's mind, he was going to Jiangdong to meet Sun Shangxiang, otherwise in the battle of Yiling in the future, after Liu Bei was burned by Lu Xun for 700 miles, she would really commit suicide by throwing herself into the river as recorded in history, so what should I do?Then I will never be able to meet her again!
Early the next morning, Liu Chan called Zhuge Qiao and Deng Ai.Liu Chan then asked Zhuge Qiao: "Ah Qiao, do you want to go back to Jiangdong to visit relatives? You haven't seen his biological parents for two years. If you come to Sichuan with me now, if you want to see them again in the future, I'm afraid It's going to be very difficult."

Zhuge Qiao froze for a moment, then shook his head sadly.But seeing his melancholy eyes, Liu Chan knew that Zhuge Qiao must really want to go back.Liu Chan expressed his desire to see Sun Shangxiang.

Both Zhuge Qiao and Deng Ai were frightened by this crazy idea, it would be too bold to call you son directly!Zhuge Qiao even persuaded Liu Chan, "My lord, you can't take risks so easily. Have you forgotten the story of General Zhao Zilong cutting the river to save you? Soochow has always been eyeing Jingzhou. If you fall into their hands, The consequences are unpredictable!"

Deng Ai blushed, and advised Liu Chan in relatively fluent sentences that he must not go. Now that Liu Shijun has newly acquired Yizhou, his foundation is not solid. If something happens to the young master at this time, he will be powerless to rescue him.

Although Deng Ai's speech is still squeaking now, under Mr. Hua's years of treatment, the symptoms have been alleviated a lot, so the sentences he speaks sound fluent.

How could Liu Chan not know these things?But he knew better that if he didn't go to Jiangdong this time, he might regret it for the rest of his life in the future.So he had already decided in his heart that no matter how the two men persuaded him, he would definitely go to Jiangdong.

Seeing that Liu Chan didn't speak, Zhuge Qiao thought that his heart had loosened up, and said, "If you just leave, my lord, what will happen to the relocation of the Medical and National Academy?"

Liu Chan is actually just three directors of the board of directors, and it is not that the National Academy of Medicine cannot do without him.Coupled with the presence of a shrewd and capable old man like the dean Zhang Fangping, he doesn't need to worry about the relocation at all.

Seeing Zhuge Qiao and Deng Ai obstructing him like this, Liu Chan knew that it would be impossible for him not to be overbearing, so he said to them: "Don't persuade me anymore! I have made up my mind that I must go to Jiangdong. Are you going to follow me or not?" ?”

Both Zhuge Qiao and Deng Ai became silent at the same time.Among the three of Liu Chan, Deng Ai was the oldest and had the most experience, but his mouth was a bit clumsy, so he secretly pulled Zhuge Qiao's sleeve, telling him to say something quickly.But Zhuge Qiao ignored it.

Seeing the two of them like this, Liu Chan planned to express another plan in his heart: "Since this is the case, I don't want to hide it from you two anymore. I actually have another purpose for going to Soochow this time."

Zhuge Qiao and Deng Ai, who were a bit sluggish, suddenly became energetic and looked at Liu Chan curiously.

"You all must know about Lu Su and Lu Zijing, right?"

Zhuge Qiao immediately said: "Of course I know. This person is one of the three great counselors of Eastern Wu. He is honest and upright. He once proposed a strategic plan for Sun Quan to dominate Jiangdong. After the unfortunate death of Governor Zhou Yu, all his old troops were handed over to Lu Su. .Now guarding Lukou for Soochow, the official worships General Hengjiang."

Liu Chan secretly admired Zhuge Qiao's understanding of Soochow's situation, and he was right.Moreover, in the territory of Jingzhou occupied by Liu Bei, Nanjun, the richest place, was only borrowed from Soochow after Lu Zijing's mediation.

In fact, what Zhuge Qiao didn't even know was that for the past two years, Liu Chan had been sending people from the National Academy of Medicine to treat Lu Su, so that Lu Su, who had already died of illness, should still be dying.But a few days ago there was news from Zhuge Military Adviser that Lu Zijing was very ill this time, and I'm afraid he won't last long!If Lu Su dies, then the person who will replace him to guard Lukou will be Lu Meng Lu Ziming who will cross the river in white clothes, attack Jingzhou, and ambush Guan Yu!

Liu Chan himself is currently weak, and may not be able to prevent the fall of Jingzhou, but he has a lot of medical experts in his hands. If he brings people there now, he may be able to let Lu Zijing live for another two years.Then when I am a little older, I may have the ability to turn the tide!

It was precisely because of this thought that Liu Chan said: "Lu Zijing has a very close relationship with my father and Zhuge Junshi, and it is a link between us and the Soochow Alliance. However, I heard that his health is getting worse and worse recently. Worse."

Deng Ai suddenly asked: "Then... so what?"

Liu Chan said slowly: "Think about it, if Lu Zijing is too ill to be a director, or simply dies of illness, then Soochow will definitely press for the Nanjun loaned to us immediately?"

Zhuge Qiao and Deng Ai nodded at the same time.In fact, Soochow has been sending people to urge Nanjun over the years, and among them is Zhuge Qiao's biological father Zhuge Jin.Now that Liu Bei has gained all the land of Yizhou, they will definitely step up their efforts to reclaim Nanjun.According to intelligence, Soochow is already secretly preparing to launch an offensive against Jingzhou.But as long as Lu Su is in charge of Soochow's army, the possibility of them wanting to attack Jingzhou will be greatly reduced.

"So, in order to continue to keep the territory of Jingzhou, we can't let Lu Su die easily now."

Zhuge Qiao was startled and said, "Young master, are you going to treat Lu Zijing?!"

Liu Chan smiled and said, "Exactly!"

Liu Chan's affirmative answer immediately made them feel that Liu Chan's brain must be broken, but his words sounded reasonable.

Therefore, Liu Chan asked Zhuge Qiao to write a letter to his biological father Zhuge Jin, telling him that he was going back to Soochow to visit his relatives, and please give him convenience when he cleared customs on the way.But Liu Chan concealed any information about himself in the letter.

Next, Liu Chan himself wrote a letter to Han Long and sent it directly with a carrier pigeon, asking him to go to Jiangdong with him.After getting along for so long, Liu Chan and Han Long have become close friends, and he has absolute trust in Han Long.Han Long himself is a local tyrant and knows Jiangdong affairs very well. With his help along the way, Liu Chan feels that he will definitely be safer.

However, these are actually Liu Bei's superficial reasons for inviting Han Long.His trip to Jiangdong this time actually has a third purpose that cannot be revealed.He wanted to ask Han Long to help him investigate the activities of the bandits in Jiangdong and the various ethnic groups in Shanyue, as well as the routes they used to collude with merchants to smuggle goods.These will be the first-hand information that Liu Chan will need to use after he takes over the power of the Shu Kingdom in the future.
