The Three Kingdoms Voyage

Chapter 65 Zhang Zhao
"Hehehe..." Sun Quan smiled, feeling much better.After a while, he said again: "If your new wine can be used this time, at least our casualties will be much smaller. Aman, if you really win, you are also a meritorious minister."

Sun Shao thought, I know it's a minister, so I don't need you to remind me.

"Aman, you can't slack off these days, you have to work with your heart." Sun Quan warned again: "Don't be careless, if you miss something, it will be serious."

Sun Shao hesitated for a moment, raised his head and said, "Uncle, I have already arranged everything. I believe that with Zhang Wenwen and Jiyan around, this matter will be done safely."

"They?" Sun Quan looked at Sun Shao in surprise, "What about you?"

"I want to study." Sun Shao rubbed his head and made an embarrassed look: "I used to only know martial arts, but I haven't studied hard. This time I come to Jianye, I want to find a good teacher and read some classics." .”

"Study the scriptures? Do you want to be a doctor?" Sun Quan couldn't help laughing. He thought about it, but he didn't object. As long as Sun Shao didn't lead soldiers to fight, he could agree to everything else: "Study is a good thing, but you You can't let go of the things around you. Can you guarantee that Zhang Wenwen and Jiyan can do well?"

"I also have confidence in them." Sun Shao chuckled, feeling a little rascally, "I wrote down the steps in detail, and then Ji Yan was in charge of the production process, and Zhang Wen was in charge of personnel deployment and finished product inspection. Mistake, first blame Zhang Wen, they dare not be careless."

As he said that, he explained the quality management measures formulated for Zhang Wen and the others.Sun Quan heard something fresh, so he actually asked a few words, and felt that although Sun Shao's method seemed to be a laziness, it was actually good, and Sun Shao didn't want to seize power, so it might be a good thing for him.Thinking of this, he nodded with a smile and said, "Since you have made arrangements, then it's up to you. It's just that I'm going to put my ugly words up front. If something goes wrong, Zhang Wenjiyan will definitely not be able to escape, but You, the school lieutenant, can't get away from your responsibilities, so don't say that I, as an uncle, don't show respect."

"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely not run away." Sun Shao said with a smile.

"Well, that's good." Sun Quan laughed twice, and asked again: "What scriptures do you want to read, and which erudite Confucianist do you like?"

Sun Shao said hesitantly: "I don't know much about the Analects of Confucius. I heard that Mr. Zhang is good at the Analects. I want to learn the Analects from him first to lay a solid foundation. If Mr. Zhang thinks I'm not too stupid, Just read Zuo Zhuan Chunqiu with him again. I don’t know if uncle thinks it’s appropriate.”

Sun Quan frowned and didn't speak for a long time.Zhang Zhao's knowledge is nothing to say, and it is more than enough to teach Sun Shao, but Zhang Zhao was the confidant of his elder brother Sun Ce, and Sun Ce called him Zhong's father. Sun Shao wants to study with Zhang Zhao now, is there any other reason? Thoughts?He was about to refuse, but after thinking about it, Zhang Zhao is too pedantic, relying on himself as an old minister and his achievements in helping others back then, he is quite proud of himself, and has made himself unable to step down in front of everyone many times.Sun Shao has a rough temper and asked him to learn from Zhang Zhao. It would be interesting for the two stubborn heads to be together.Even if Sun Shao had some thoughts, it would be safer to let him express them to his heart's content rather than keep them in his heart.The current Jiangdong is no longer the Jiangdong when his brother was alive. He has enough confidence to control the situation.

"Mr. Zhang's knowledge is nothing to say, but he has a bad temper. You have to be mentally prepared, and don't regret it later. This apprenticeship is not a joke, it should not be a joke."

Seeing that Sun Quan agreed, Sun Shao heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Thank you uncle for reminding me, nephew has made a note."

Zhang Zhao's mansion is near Sun Quan's chariot general's mansion, just around the corner when he goes out.Zhang Zhao is eight feet tall, with a national face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a long beard. He is not angry but powerful.His face became even more ugly when he was upset about the discussion today. His eldest son, Zhang Cheng, saw it and rushed to greet him, let him sit down in the hall, and asked someone to bring tea, and then asked cautiously: "Father , what are you worrying about?"

Zhang Zhao sighed: "Mr. Cao will face internal and external troubles in Jiangdong in the future, and people's hearts will be uneasy. Why don't you worry about being a father?"

Zhang Cheng frowned and thought for a moment: "The ministers disagree?"

"Yes." Zhang Zhao sighed, very unhappy.Today's military meeting, Sun Quan wanted everyone to speak freely, but he was obviously very indifferent to him.Zhang Zhao knew in his heart that since Sun Quan violated all opinions and defeated Cao Cao in Wulin in the 13th year of Jian'an, his reputation is no longer comparable to that of when he first succeeded to the throne. Now he is even worse than Sun Ce back then, and Zhang Zhao Zhao had already lost Sun Quan's favor because he advocated surrendering to Cao back then. In the past few years, it was obvious that Sun Quan only respected him superficially, and he was no longer obedient to what he said before. Sun Quan's current cronies are Zhuge Jin and Lu Meng. People, his former veteran has been marginalized.

"What are the opinions of all the ministers?" Zhang Cheng thought for a moment, then asked again.

"Some want to fight, some want to make peace, and some are silent." Zhang Zhao said impatiently: "Even among the generals, there are quite different opinions. Lu Meng and others want to fight, but many people say that Cao Jun The situation is strong, so it’s better to make peace first, I think they were shattered by the battle in Hefei last year.”

Zhang Cheng saw that Zhang Zhao looked disdainful, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he recovered his calm face, looked at Zhang Zhao and said, "Then what is father's opinion?"

"What can I say?" Zhang Zhao became excited. This was what annoyed him the most. Although he was not as good as he used to be, he was still a veteran of Jiangdong after all. Sun Quan shouldn't ignore him no matter in terms of seniority or knowledge. What's more, he is still a legitimate military adviser, but Sun Quan didn't ask him a word from the beginning to the end today, as if he, an old minister from Jiangdong, didn't exist. This made Zhang Zhao feel disappointed and angry.

Zhang Cheng understood at a glance that Lao Tzu was left out in the cold again today.He smiled wryly to himself, wanting to comfort Zhang Zhao, but he didn't know how to start, and he felt a little at a loss.The Zhang family left their hometown and lived in Jiangdong for more than 20 years. It is said that Zhang Zhao's prestige and qualifications are second to none in Jiangdong, but because Zhang Zhao's temper is too rigid, the situation of the Zhang family is not optimistic now.Zhang Zhao is respected but has no power, he has been neglected for many years, and he is almost [-] years old, and has a good reputation among scholars, but he has not been able to become an official.Zhuge Jin, Bu Zhi and others who were friendly with him all have their uses, but he is still white now.

A domestic servant hurried in with a famous thorn in his hand. Seeing the oppressive atmosphere of Zhang's father and son in the hall, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment. Zhang Cheng saw him, waved his hand, took a look at the famous thorn, and was stunned. : "Sun Shao?"

Zhang Zhao, who was on the fire, frowned when he heard this, "Who?"

"Father, he is the son of the general who seeks rebellion, Sun Shaojun." Although Zhang Cheng said this to Zhang Zhao, he was still a little unconfident, took another look, and then nodded affirmatively: "Yes, it is him. Good calligraphy! "

Zhang Zhao was attracted by his last compliment.He himself is good at clerical script, and Zhang Chengyou inherited his family education, and he is also quite accomplished in calligraphy. It is rare for others to appreciate Sun Shao's calligraphy today, which is rare for him, not to mention that Sun Shao has always been fascinated by martial arts. I have never heard that he is good at calligraphy.He took a look at the famous thorn from Zhang Cheng's hand, and couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "It's really good calligraphy!"
