"The second son is virtuous!" Zhang Zhao didn't directly say whether the second son is suitable to be the lord, but from the side. What is virtue? There is a good saying that those who are virtuous live in the world, and there is another saying that those who are virtuous are equipped with talents. Are you saying that the second son is a talented person, or are you saying that the second son is a person who lives in the world? .
Zhang Zhao spoke vaguely, but the people below understood it thoroughly. Why did Master Zhang Zhao get angry with the lord Sun Ce, and was sent away by Sun Ce to Xudu? Isn't it because his heart is for the second son, Sun Quan, and he knows Sun Quan If you have a plan but don't report it, and wait and see how the situation develops, you are looking for death, so Zhang Zhao was not wronged by Sun Ce's rejection. Now when it comes to the Second Young Master, Zhang Zhao Zhang Changshi naturally has his eyes on the Second Young Master's new lord.
"I think, this second young master is a great leader!" Zuo Li pointed out directly that they had no choice. If they did nothing and let Yangzhou annex Jiangdong, then they should not only worry about Liu Mang's liquidation , but also to redistribute the cakes that I have swallowed to others, maybe the first-rate gentry can become second-rate, the second-rate can become third-rate, and the third-rate may even be kicked out of the ranks of gentry. And which of these gentry has no enmity with Liu Mang, the king of Shu? The expedition to Linhuai, the chaos in Wancheng, all of these are the gentry from Jiangdong.
So each one of them absolutely dare not let Jiang Dong fall into the arms of Yangzhou. Originally, Zhang Zhao didn’t speak out, and this group of people wouldn’t say so, but now it’s too late. If you don’t say anything, once the raw rice becomes mature up. You just wait to cry.
"You all think this way?" Zhang Zhao narrowed his eyes and looked at the patriarchs of the noble families. He wanted to confirm whether what these people said was true. Especially one person.
"We all think so, the second son is worthy of great responsibility because he is only virtuous and virtuous!" said the Patriarch of the Zheng family.
"That's right, the second son has blue eyes and purple hair. It's a natural phenomenon. I think he was nothing more than Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, but Wang Zhi." The Patriarch of the Hao family also spoke.
"The second son is our master." The Cheng family also expressed their opinion.
"Then Patriarch He, what do you think!" Zhang Zhao was still dissatisfied with the expressions of these Patriarchs. He turned his head and looked over there at a man named He Chen. This man is the head of the He family in Jiangdong. He has been in Jiangdong for several generations. He is very familiar with his family. That is our Governor Zhou Yu. , this He family is because they are more familiar with the Zhou family, so they got closer, which led to the change from an inconspicuous third-rate family in Jiangdong to the few big families in Jiangdong.
Now Zhang Zhao needs the attitude of Patriarch He, because he is a pawn that Zhou Yu placed in Jiangdong's gentry.
In the past, Zhang Zhao didn't care about the He family leader because he didn't have to turn against Zhou Yu for a He family, but now it's different. Zhang Zhao used to be the banker and the spectator. He can do whatever he wants because no matter who wins or loses, Zhang Zhao is good for him, and Sun Ce wins. He, Zhang Zhao, was the number one civil servant under Sun Ce. Sun Quan won, and he was the same. Sun Quan could not do without the support of his Zhang family.
So there is no need for Zhang Zhao to move Zhou Yu's pawn, but it is different now.
He, Zhang Zhao, changed from a banker to a spectator to a gambler. He participated in the gambling, so he won or lost. Zhang Zhao was dismissed by Sun Ce in this way. He will be willing to go to Xudu! His Zhang family was not originally a noble family in Jiangdong. Their Zhang family came to Jiangdong to escape the war. The Zhang family has such a large family business under Zhang Zhao's management for so many years. You How could Zhang Zhao be willing to give up listening to Sun Ce's words and leave Jiangdong
This time, if he wins the bet, then his Zhang family will continue to be the No. 1 family in Jiangdong, and even grow stronger with the help of Sun Quan. If he loses, then the Zhang family will lose everything. Although the price is a bit high, it may be different if you leave Jiangdong.
Entering into the bet and becoming a gambler, Zhang Zhao, like other gamblers, will get rid of all the bad things that cause him to lose, such as this Patriarch He in front of him. Now he doesn't care if he will offend the governor Zhou Yu.
Zhang Zhao looked at Patriarch He Chen with twinkling eyes.
He Chen's scalp was numb from being nailed by Zhang Zhao, he couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart, he still has a choice now, now that he knows enough, if he doesn't join, then there is only one way left for He Chen can go.
What's more, he, He Chen, is neither a true loyal minister nor a true loyalist. In the past, his He family followed the governor Zhou Yu wholeheartedly. Squeezed to death, so he had to hide behind the governor Zhou Yu and let Zhou Yu protect him from the wind and rain. He naturally obeyed Zhou Yu's words.
Zhou Yu asked the He family to work as Zhou Yu's undercover agent in the gentry circle. He Chen came. Anyway, Zhou Yu took care of him, so he could offend other gentry. Slowly, the He family changed from a third-rate gentry to a first-class gentry now. Among Jiangdong, there are people with reputation.
People's hearts will change. In the past, the He family could share the joys and sorrows with the governor Zhou Yu. It was because he hadn't tasted the sweetness yet, so it was nothing to cry. But now their He family is no longer the original He family. Having tasted the sweetness of being a first-class family, it can be said that he is absolutely unwilling to let the current He family and Zhou Yu live the hard life together.
If you, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, are still the masters of Jiangdong, then He Chen, Zhang Zhaoxu and Wei Snake will report to Zhou Yu, and let Zhou Yu take Zhang Zhao and others out of the pot one by one.
But now it’s impossible, because an envoy came from Yangzhou, and you, Sun Ce, greeted the envoy personally and led him a horse. This shows that Jiangdong is going to be merged into Yangzhou. If Jiangdong becomes a part of Yangzhou, then Zhou Yu Not to mention taking care of his He family, maybe Zhou Yu himself will be in trouble, and their He family may never fall again.
So He Chen wouldn't be with Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, and he, Zhou Yu's spy, the governor of the metropolitan area, would not go anyway.
"Mr. Zhang, please don't worry. The second son has become the lord of Jiangdong, and my He family guards to drive him! On the saddle and on the horse. Sun Ce's son is no longer suitable to be this Marquis of Wu!" He Chen actually called Sun Ce his son in public. This is considered outrageous.
Even the gang who wanted to welcome the second son, Sun Quan, would not dare to be so presumptuous.
"En!" Zhang Zhao nodded. This He Chen seemed to be aware of current affairs. Zhang Zhao didn't want to kill He Chen either, it would be bad to kill He Chen and force the He family to the opposite side.
"However, Master Ambassador, how can we get the Second Young Master to become the Lord of Jiangdong?" Zuo Li who was standing next to him wondered, this Second Young Master Sun Quan is in the hands of Sun Ce, what do we want? Only in this way can Sun Ce not be alarmed. If Sun Ce is offended, Sun Quan will be beheaded directly. Then what the fuck are they doing.
"It depends on our Lord He Chenhe!" Zhang Zhao smiled and looked at He Chen next to him.
As He Chen said earlier, he has a good relationship with Zhou Yu, so in this Jianye, many vacancies are in the hands of the He family's children, and one of them has a place to take care of the second son, Sun Quan.
"He must do his best to let the second son leave the domain smoothly!" He Chen naturally dared not refuse and said hastily.
"It's so good, it's not too late, Patriarch He, you should act quickly." Zhang Zhao said to He Chen.
'yes! "He Chen nodded and left.
Zhang Zhao looked at He Chen's leaving back and then turned his gaze away.
"Master Ambassador, is this He Chen reliable?" Hao Liu asked Zhang Zhao next to him, "Isn't he a good guy who just let her go like this? What if it was this person?" Hao Liu was a little hesitant, because this He Chen was Everyone knows Zhou Yu's chess pieces. If you let go of such a hidden danger, will he find Zhou Yu immediately after returning, and finally everyone will be taken over by Zhou Yu.
"Hehe. This He Chen is indeed not a good thing, but he still knows what to do." Zhang Zhao smiled and said to Hao Liu beside him.
"But!" Hao Liu still wanted to argue.
"It's nothing to worry about. Don't worry, Brother Hao, since Mr. Zhang can do this, it means Mr. Zhang must have made up his mind." Zuo Li stopped Hao Liu from arguing, "I'm right, Mr. Zhang."
"Hehe, Mr. Zuo praised someone. If you say you have a plan, who can compare with brother Zuo?" Zhang Zhao really underestimated this old stubborn Zuo Li. He used to think he was stupid, but now it seems that he is really insightful. .
"I don't know if Mr. Zhang has something important for us!" Zuo Li asked Zhang Zhao like a roundworm in Zhang Zhao's stomach.
"Of course there is!" Zhang Zhao nodded, "Brother Zheng, Brother Hao, are the Shanyue you raised in the mansion all these years still healthy?"
"Shanyue!" If Zhang Zhao asked like this on weekdays, Hao Liu and Zheng Shuang would turn their faces, because Shanyue represents riots. This does not mean that the riots in Shanyue in the past were largely caused by their Hao and Zheng families. Play it out.
Every time Shanyue ravages, both Hao Liu and Zheng Shuang can make a fortune. Later, Yangzhou came out with that bullshit 30% tax, so Sun Ce packed up and sent basically all the Shanyue clan to Yangzhou, which made Hao Liu and Zheng Shuang cut off their money.
However, those vicious Shanyue people, the Hao family and the Zheng family, still support them. First, they can serve as thugs for the dead, and second, they are also afraid of being exposed. They didn't expect that this hidden thing would have been covered by our Chang Zhang long ago. The adults saw it.
"This, this, of course it is there!" Zheng Shuang wanted to hide it, but Hao Liu said it directly, "Mr. Zhang, there are more than 3,000 in these mountains, but there are only 1,500 in Jiawei." insufficient."
"Armors are easy to handle!" Zhang Zhao smiled. "There are five thousand pairs of heavy armor in the treasury in Jianye City. You can go and get them together." The heavy armored troops came. After all, Jiangdong is planning to attack the Central Plains in the future. If you are a bunch of light infantry, how can you fight with them.
But I didn't expect that since Lujiang was occupied by Liu Mang's army, none of these heavy armors had a chance to be used, because these heavy armors for water warfare were simply cumbersome. But I didn't expect these Shanyue people to be cheaper now.
"There are five thousand auxiliary soldiers in Kuaiji!" Zuo Li also said, Zuo Li is a good prefect, and he actually has five thousand soldiers under his command.
"Oh? How about these auxiliary soldiers of Zuo Taishou?" Zhang Zhao didn't expect that Zuo Li would have five thousand soldiers at once.
"Hehe, they used to have the surname Yan." Zuo Li said to Zhang Zhao, whoever took out the soldiers and horses this time was the most powerful, and naturally the rewards were high in terms of meritorious deeds in the end, and they all wanted to save face with the new master Label it well.
"Yan?" The families next to him were also at a loss for words, wouldn't they know who the Yan family was? Isn't that the half master of Jiangdong back then, Brother Yan Baihu? This soldier named Yan is the remnant of Yan Baihu,
Well, it turned out that everyone didn't know each other's details, but now they all came out at once, including the Shanyue bandits and the remnants of Yan Baihu.
"The armor of these auxiliary soldiers can also come to Jianye to get them." Zhang Zhao also had money to buy all the armor of eight thousand soldiers and horses at once.
"That would be disrespectful." Zuo Li finally showed a smiling face, this smile involved the wound and couldn't help crying again.
