    Sima Lang looked at Sima Yi and smiled slightly: "Liu Biao is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and the prime minister represents the court. If there is no other reason, rashly dealing with Liu Biao will only arouse opposition from the people of the world."

    Sima Yi understood that this was because he was too young and did not see things comprehensively.

    "Then why did the Prime Minister ask Jiang Dong to deal with Gongsun Zan?"

    Sima Yi didn¡¯t understand again and said: ¡°Sun Quan in Jiangdong has just come to power and his foundation is unstable. If there is external force at this time, it will make Jiangdong unite and allow Sun Quan to come to power smoothly.¡±

    "It was Sun Quan who had just ascended the throne."

    Sima Lang said: "Sun Quan is young and lacks knowledge. At this time, there is an imperial edict from the imperial court. Maybe Sun Quan will lead everyone to seek refuge with Prime Minister Cai."

    Sima Yi understood again that this was trying his luck.

    "What if Sun Quan refuses to surrender?" Sima Yi asked.

    "If you don't come to vote, there will be no loss for the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister can use this as a reason to send troops to attack Sun Quan."

    Damn, it¡¯s so dark. Sima Yi despised Cao Cao in his heart.  At the same time, he deeply felt his own shortcomings. His vision was lacking in these major national affairs.

    "Brother, what do you think Jiangdong will do?"

    Sima Yi humbly asked Sima Lang for advice. Sima Lang had worked in the Prime Minister's Palace for a long time. He might be smarter than Sima Yi in terms of intelligence, but he definitely had a more comprehensive view of these national affairs than Sima Yi.

    ¡°What else can be done?¡±

    Sima Lang said: "Sun Quan is newly established. Facing the prime minister, he is naturally afraid in his heart, but it will not be so easy for him to surrender."

    "Then why does the Prime Minister still do this?"

    Sima Yi said: "If you want to find an excuse to send troops to Jiangdong, you can just find any one."

    Sima Yi did not just say this casually. Cao Cao had a criminal record, like Zhang Xiu, Liu Bei and even Gongsun Zan. Cao Cao accused them of a crime and then sent troops.

    "Jiangdong is far away."

    Sima Lang said: "There is also a natural chasm on the Yangtze River. It is not easy to attack. Let's find an excuse now for later."

    ¡°It¡¯s really despicable,¡± Sima Yi complained again in his heart.

    "Furthermore, a new lord of Jiangdong has been established. There are many nobles in Jiangdong and the new lord is young. The people below will inevitably compete with each other for power. At this time, the prime minister may take action and maybe he can win over a group of nobles in Jiangdong."

    Sima Lang saw that his younger brother was confused about these things, so he patiently taught him.

    After hearing this, Sima Yi nodded. He began to understand. These things were far from being as simple as they seemed on the surface. This made Sima Yi become interested in his heart.

    ¡°It¡¯s so interesting!¡± Sima Yi murmured to himself, his eyes starting to darken.

    Jiangdong!

    It has been more than a year since the little overlord Sun Ce was attacked by Shan Yue and fell into the Yangtze River and disappeared. Jiangdong has changed a lot in this year.

    As the younger brother of Sun Ce, Sun Quan successfully became the new generation master of Jiangdong with the support of his mother Wu and a large number of civil servants and generals.

    But things were far from smooth.

    Because Sun Ce had just unified Jiangdong not long ago, local scholars and people who stayed there still had dissent. Therefore, when Sun Quan first took charge of Jiangdong, the situation was turbulent.  Li Shu, the governor of Lujiang, openly rebelled and led tens of thousands of rebels to start a rebellion.

    What¡¯s more, Sun Jian¡¯s nephew, Sun Ce and Sun Quan¡¯s cousin Sun Fu, the prefect of Luling, openly questioned Sun Quan and was eyeing the position of the lord of Jiangdong.  Sun Hao, the eldest son of Sun Jian's younger brother Sun Jing, even reorganized his troops and sent troops to Kuaiji, hoping to capture Kuaiji and become independent.

    At the same time, because Sun Quan claimed that Sun Ce was killed by Shan Yue in a sneak attack, and at the same time sent Zhou Yu to prepare to deal with Shan Yue, Shan Yue, who was not willing to sit back and wait for death, began to cause rebellion in Yuzhang, Kuaiji and other places.

    Faced with such a chaotic situation, Sun Quan, who had just taken over, almost cried. If he didn't operate well, Jiangdong would become a mess.

    But after all, Sun Ce was a good big brother and left him a group of loyal subordinates.

    At the same time, his mother Wu also gave Sun Quan advice, asking Sun Quan to worship Zhang Zhao as his teacher, and personally come to invite Zhou Yu. With the help of a group of veterans such as Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and others, the situation in Jiangdong began to gradually stabilize.

    Cheng Pu led his troops to attack Lujiang, defeated Li Shu, and pacified Lujiang. Now Sun Quan did not dare to call Cheng Pu back, so he directly appointed Cheng Pu as the prefect of Lujiang again and asked him to take charge of Lujiang.

    Sun Quan again followed the advice of his teacher Zhang Zhao and recruited talented people and famous people, most of whom were from the local gentry. With the support of the big family, the voices of dissatisfaction from the following families begangradually disappear.

    Zhou Yu led his troops to the Yuzhang and Kuaiji areas, scared Sun Hao away, and began to deal with Shanyue.

    In short, with everyone¡¯s help, Jiangdong finally began to stabilize, and Sun Quan began to breathe a sigh of relief.  He even felt that the most difficult period was over.

    After heaving a sigh of relief, Sun Quan began to think about what he had always been most concerned about.

    "Teacher," Sun Quan said to Zhang Zhao humbly. Ever since Zhang Zhao helped him stabilize Jiangdong, Sun Quan had to discuss many things with Zhang Zhao.

    "You see, I'm not young anymore. Can I get married?"

    "My lord," Zhang Zhao said seriously, "you are now the Marquis of Wu, you can't call yourself like that anymore." (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
