The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 806 Inside Jiangdong ([-])

Since Gu Shao came back alive, why didn't he get any report before.Even when he entered Moling, the captain of the city gate would definitely report to the higher authorities because of the seriousness of the matter.

Therefore, Gu Yong didn't go back home immediately, but immediately went back to see Mo Ling Ling and asked if there was any news of Gu Shao's entry into the city.Mo Ling Ling felt very puzzled at the time, and didn't understand why Gu Yong suddenly asked this question. Gu Shao served as Sun Jiao's army, and after the defeat, his life and death were already unknown!

After Gu Yong received the reply from the Moling Order, his face suddenly became gloomy.He already had a premonition in his heart that there must be something strange about Gu Shao being able to come back alive this time.

Therefore, Gu Yong hurried back home, and after some inquiries, he finally found out the specific circumstances of why Gu Shao was able to come back alive.

Gu Yong's mood suddenly became very complicated. On the one hand, he learned the news that Sun Jiao had really died, and he felt both sad and helpless.After all, it's only been a long time, and the Jiangdong Army has lost another coach.At the same time, Gu Yong felt a little bit sorry for Gu Shao's indisputability, he didn't make much achievements, but he fled back in despair.Not to mention that he escaped back, how dare he abscond?This made him Gu Yong, where did he put the face of the Gu family!Therefore, Gu Yong was actually angry in his heart.

Gu Shao was in front of Gu Yong, a strict father, of course he couldn't get good results this time. Even though he was not young, he was immediately reprimanded by Gu Yong. I dare not say a word.

In the end, of course, it was impossible for Gu Yong to agree to Gu Shao's departure, but he strictly ordered his family to keep Gu Shao and Sun Shangxiang in prison and not allow them to leave the mansion.Then, Gu Shao met Sun Shangxiang immediately, and told Sun Shangxiang everything about Liu Chan.

When Sun Shangxiang met Liu Chan earlier, his personal temperament has become less staunch and active than before.Ever since she married into the Gu family, coupled with the strict family style of the Gu family, Gu Yong is extremely serious, which made her restrain her character even more.So much so that today's Sun Shangxiang doesn't look like the Sun Shangxiang when he followed Liu Bei, but more like a wealthy lady with a weak temperament.

After listening to what Gu Shao said, Sun Shangxiang felt a burst of sadness in her heart, and she began to sob unconsciously.

She then asked Gu Shao, "Since that child, Adou, has put in so much effort, should we go or not?"

Gu Shao hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said, "Oh, ma'am, my father... this matter is really difficult!"

Sun Shangxiang's face darkened, and his brows were raised, showing a trace of sullenness which was extremely rare.

At this time, Sun Shangxiang suddenly revealed the staunch character that had been suppressed for a long time, and immediately said: "Hmph! If you want to leave, with the sword in my hand, no one in your family can stop me of!"

But even if Sun Shangxiang said so.Gu Shao, who has always been quite decisive, is still hesitating at this time, and still cannot make a decision immediately.It seems to be reasonable for an upright official to decide housework.

One day later, the news that Gu Shao returned to Moling City alive was leaked by someone.

At this time, even if Gu Shao and Sun Shangxiang wanted to leave, they couldn't do it anymore.One, they have already been highly concerned by others at this time, and two, even if they leave, they must think about the consequences for the sake of the Gu family.

This matter has definitely put a lot of pressure on Gu Yong, at least he has to face the questioning of many ministers in the court.In order to calm the situation, he had to immediately send a letter to Sun Quan in Qu'a, explaining the whole story.Of course, no matter how loyal he is, he must conceal the fact that Liu Chan deliberately let go of Gu Shao and let Gu Shao go back to Moling City and take Sun Shangxiang away from home.

On the other hand, Zhuge Jin's rapid defeat once again greatly shocked the nerves of Jiangdong people.Many people have begun to realize that the crisis of Cao Cao's leaping horse along the Yangtze River is now being played out again.It's just that the situation this time is probably even more critical than before, because the enemy attacking Jiangdong came from Jingzhou, and there is no Yangtze River to block the enemy in that direction.

What is even worse is that their Jiangdong army has lost control of the Yangtze River waterway long ago, so much so that their lord, Sun Quan, hastily jumped the wall and went to Qu'a to find Quan Cong himself.

Therefore, these news must first be spread to Wu County, and then to Kuaiji County.In order to save the crisis in Jiangdong, some people of insight began to act spontaneously.In fact, most of these people were prominent figures at the time, or local wealthy families. The reason why they did this was that they did not want the Shu Han army to get involved in their territory. But if they want to have appeal, they must hold high the banner of righteousness.

The people in Wu Jun are indeed very positive about this matter.Because this is the territory of the four major families in Jiangdong!They are the veritable rulers of Soochow.However, Kuaiji County responded relatively coldly to this.

The reason for this is quite complicated to say, but it seems relatively simple to focus on the key points.That is the relationship between the big clan in Kuaiji County and the Sun Quan regime, which is much more distant than the relationship between the big clan in Wu County and Sun Quan. They are not in power in Jiangdong, and they are even deliberately suppressed by Sun Quan in many cases.

The two largest wealthy families in Kuaiji County are Yu Fan's family and Wei Teng's family.Yu Fan became an official very early, and he was well-known in Sun Ce's time. In addition, he is indeed versatile. He is a master of Confucian classics and medical skills.

But this Yu Fan was too upright, and he seemed a little proud. He often tried to admonish Sun Quan face to face, which aroused Sun Quan's extreme disgust. None of the admonishing officials in history seemed to have a good ending.

Let’s just say that the famous Wei Zheng was well. After he died, Li Shimin regretted his marriage with his family.Therefore, it is said that the king is good at listening to admonishment, it is all fake, it is just to gain a good reputation in history, in fact, he has always hated admonishment in his heart.

Therefore, Yu Fan was almost beheaded by Sun Quan several times without changing his mind.Fortunately, there are people like Lu Meng or Zhuge Jin who can save him from death.However, in history, the ending of this Yu Fan was indeed not very good. He was sent to Jiaozhou to die of old age in a foreign land.

But it can be seen from here that at that time, no one from Wu County, who was also a big family in Jiangdong, came forward to speak for Yu Fan.What's more, in fact, the people of Wu County don't think highly of the people of Kuaiji County.

Wei Teng's official position was not small, but his character was still very rigid, and he was almost killed by Sun Quan, and his family was later ransacked.

And from the situation in the court, we can also see that the children of the big families in Wu County have a large number of high-ranking people. As long as they want, many people can say a lot casually.But looking back at the big families in Kuaiji County, there are very few people who become high officials, and they are despised by the people of Wu County.

Like He Qi, he is indeed a high-ranking general and also holds military power, but if he returns to Moling, he will not be welcomed by Zhang Zhao and others.

Therefore, because of the difference in treatment, the active performance of people from Kuaiji County and Wu County will of course be completely different.
