The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 866 Chaos

The actions of Zhang Zhao and others were so sudden that everyone who learned the reason afterward was extremely surprised.Of course, the effect of this matter is still there.

But this needs to be looked at from two aspects.

The first effect is that this matter has greatly deterred Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong's political opponents, forcing them not to act rashly anymore.At the same time, in this way, the obstacles encountered by the two of them in promoting the renewal of the new lord have been alleviated.

At least like Yan Yan's group of people, if they want to fight against Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong now, they have to consider the blow they will face next.

The second effect is not what Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong hoped to see.That is, with the occurrence of this incident, the contradictions in the officialdom and the internal contradictions among the dignitaries of the Sun family were all exposed to the eyes of the world at once.

The consequences of this are absolutely fatal.Because power struggles are brutal, even ordinary people are well aware of it, but it does not mean that the people will be willing to witness great shocks within the country due to power struggles.This is why, even if politicians fight to the death every day internally, they still have to maintain a seemingly harmonious situation externally.

Therefore, when this matter was spread, people's hearts became turbulent, and it was obvious that they were extremely disappointed with the Sun family.Of course, from a historical point of view, even if there was no such means as public opinion surveys at that time, it would take time to regain the hearts of the people after major changes in the political situation.However, now that the Shu Han army is all pressing in, does the Sun family still have that time?

This is absolutely in doubt.

These two effects, for the Jiangdong regime, one is good and the other is bad. The good side can obtain short-term benefits, and the bad side will affect the long-term rule.And from the decisive means used by Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong, it can already be seen that they chose this short-term benefit, trying to solve the most important thing at the moment.

However, the influence of the above two effects can spread to the entire Jiangdong now and even the future.However, what followed was the emergence of a third influence.The scope of this influence will not be too large, and it is even unlikely to be known to the general public, but it is also a short-term effect.

That is, with the occurrence of Sun Hao's incident, the impact it caused also appeared.

Before this incident happened, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong had already started to guard against Sun Jing, but they took action without any discussion with Sun Jing.

In this case, Sun Jing's emotions will be very hurt, because Zhang Zhao and Gu Yongming no longer trust him;
Second, Sun Jing's situation has become extremely embarrassing.His eldest son was a figure who tried to launch a coup d'état. As an old man, how could he still have the right to stand up for a new lord?It is impossible for anyone to believe such a thing.

Therefore, under such double pressure, there is actually only one way left for Sun Jing, and that is to give up participating in the action of forcing Sun Deng, and immediately withdraw from this matter!

Sun Jing is now a highly respected figure in the Sun clan, and it was definitely a big plus for Sun Deng that Sun Jing would take the lead in the situation.But as Sun Jing was about to withdraw, it caused a very bad negative impact on Sun Deng, making it difficult for Sun Deng to explain to the Sun clan.

Therefore, even though Sun Deng didn't trust Sun Jing much in his heart, he still tried his best to comfort Sun Jing.However, Sun Deng's move was purely for show. For Sun Jing, the matter was irreparable and he had to get out.

It should be said that Sun Jing still regrets it very much now.It's not that he regrets why he got involved in this matter, but that he regrets why he didn't even stop Sun Hao's evil deeds.Therefore, quitting is probably a self-punishing confession made by Sun Jing to the members of the Sun clan.

And this incident also had a certain impact on Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong.They lost an otherwise good collaborator.Now it was time to find another person who could replace Sun Jing, and it was more difficult in a hurry.

Thus, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong suddenly discovered that they used strong means to settle the obstacles in the officialdom, but suddenly they wanted to personally take action to settle the members of the Sun clan!It's just annoying!

What's more, among so many members of the Sun clan, maybe because of Sun Jing's withdrawal, they will follow Sun Hao's bad thoughts again, and it is not certain.Will there be another thunderous action at that time?

Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong had to admit at this time that the current political situation is really chaotic, and it is completely different from when Sun Quan was still there.

Therefore, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong had to take extreme actions again in order to stabilize the already precarious situation.Of course, they would not send out the army in the city to suppress the people's sentiments in the city at this time. It was purely courting death for themselves, but the Shu Han army was about to come.

Therefore, they must integrate all the military power in the city.In the end, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong handed over the military power of the army in the city to Zhuge Ke!
Originally, at the age of Zhuge Ke who was just in his early twenties, it was already quite an exaggeration to be directly promoted from General Zhaoyi Zhonglang to the leader of the Guards, not to mention that Zhuge Ke was not a confidant of the monarch.And he was the leader of the Central Committee for only a few days, and he was going to gather the military power of all the horses in Moling City, which was unprecedented.

So, judging from the current situation, Zhuge Ke seems to be the only one who has benefited from this chaos!

At this time, in the clan mansion, the situation has also become very dignified.Because this is the place where members of the Sun clan are dealt with, Sun Hao will of course be escorted to the prison here first, and then wait for the clan government to try him.

But this time the Clan Mansion acted extremely fast, not at all as fast as their trial of Lu Xun. It has been several months and no trial has been reached yet.It only took half a day for the Clan Mansion to convict Sun Hao of treason, but he did not convict him because his father was Sun Jing after all.

Moreover, the Clan Mansion did give Sun Jing face.Under the charge of treason, Sun Hao has absolutely no possibility of living, but they can make a fuss about Sun Hao's death.It's like Bao Zheng's guillotines. Although Bao Zheng has to kill any kind of person according to the law, it's up to Bao Zheng whether he should use the guillotine with a dog's head or a dragon's head. .

Therefore, the clan's mansion did not behead Sun Hao, but left him with a whole body, but poisoned him to death.And after Sun Hao died, he immediately returned the body to Sun Jing's family.

What's more strange is that the situation in the clan's mansion seems to be in chaos at this time, so that they didn't deprive Sun Hao of his title during the trial.Did they do this on purpose, or did they really forget it? These things will not be remembered again until the situation stabilizes.

Although Lu Xun didn't meet Sun Hao in the prison of the Clan's Mansion, he quickly understood the ins and outs of the matter through the relationship between the jailer and his family.His mood suddenly became extremely heavy.The current chaos in Moling definitely exceeded his expectations.

Lu Xun couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

He really wanted to revive Jiangdong, but he wrote to his friend Kan Ze, but Kan Ze didn't seem to care.If he had been able to return to Moling from Chen Biao earlier, Yan Yan would not have been hit so hard by masters of power manipulation like Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong, until now he has been completely marginalized, Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong Yong may not have made the situation what it is now.

After Lu Xun thought about it for a long time, even with Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong's true stance now, whether they supported the new lord to continue fighting against the Shu Han army, or just as an expedient measure to preserve their own wealth, there are indeed still considerable differences. doubt.But now he can only think about it from them temporarily, get their help, and get him out of this prison first.Otherwise, all worries are just him asking for trouble.

After experiencing so many failures, Lu Xun seems to have finally come to his senses.

So Lu Xun immediately asked the guards in charge to bring him pens and paper.He immediately wrote a letter to Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong. Apart from asking for help from them, the content in the letter was based on his own understanding of the current situation, and made extreme suggestions to them.

Lu Xun was really lucky at this time.Because Zhang Zhao was the most vehement leader who opposed him being the commander-in-chief of the three armies of the Jiangdong Army at that time.And Gu Yong's attitude at that time was also extremely ambiguous. Even when Bu Zhi swayed Lu Xun and pulled him down from the position of governor, these two people were actually optimistic.

With Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong's attitude towards Lu Xun, it would be very difficult for them to lend a helping hand!For the fierce leader.And Gu Yong's attitude at that time was also extremely ambiguous. Even when Bu Zhi swayed Lu Xun and pulled him down from the position of governor, these two people were actually optimistic.

Given Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong's attitude towards Lu Xun, it would be very difficult for them to lend a helping hand!
