"Mister Yang Hong, this way, this way! This way, please! " The prison warden politely invited Yang Hong out of Xiangyang Prison. There were not many people in Jingzhou who dared to offend Yang Hong. If Yang Hong was offended, Liu Biao might tie him up and send him to Yangzhou. Yang Hong's eyes were filled with disdain. Yang Hong's eyes were filled with disdain.
"En!" Yang Hong seemed to have something on his mind and only nodded along the way. When they were about to leave Xiangyang Prison, Yang Hong suddenly asked the prison commandant beside him, "General, has this madam been in the prison for a long time?" Yang Hong asked.
The prison officer paused for a moment before nodding, "Madam Cai has been in the prison for more than a month!" “
"Then what does she like to eat?" Yang Hong asked as he looked at the prison officer who was delivering food to Madam Cai.
"It's all normal food. Madam Cai likes to eat plums and oranges sometimes, so I brought some for her."
"Plums? Oranges? " Yang Hong thought for a moment. Plums and oranges had one thing in common, they were both sour.
"I understand! Thank you, General! I, Yangzhou, will never forget the General's kindness! "Yang Hong cupped his fist and bowed to the prison officer.
"You're too kind." The prison officer was a little flustered.
Once they were out of the prison, there were naturally officials from Jingzhou who welcomed them to their residence. After a bath and a change of clothes, Yang Hong came out in a new set of clothes.
"Lord Yang Hong, please. Our Lord invites you to a meeting." After Yang Hong was done tidying up, someone came forward to lead him out.
"Lead the way!" Yang Hong nodded and followed the person who led him out.
"Governor Yang, Lord Yang Hong Yang has arrived." Yang Hong stepped into the Jingzhou Conference Hall. All the civil and military officials in the Jingzhou Conference Hall were present. Pairs of eyes looked over as though they were waiting for him, the true leader.
Yang Hong did not care about these gazes and strode into the hall. He represented Yangzhou and the Prince of Shu, Liu Mang. Therefore, Yang Hong was confident that he would be able to enter the hall.
"Governor Yang greets Lord Governor of Jing Province!" Yang Hong cupped his fists towards Liu Biao.
"Cough cough, Envoy Yang, my lord is no longer the Governor of Jing Province!" Wen Wu reminded Yang Hong.
"Not the Governor of Jingzhou?" Yang Hong was taken aback. If he wasn't the Governor of Jingzhou, then what was he?
"Thanks to His Majesty, the Han Emperor, my master, Duke Jing Sheng, is now the Great Han Dynasty's East Suppressing General, in charge of the affairs of Jing Province and Yi Province. If there are bandits causing trouble in my Jingchu region, then I, the East Suppressing General, will have no choice but to lead the Jiangdong Conquering General to exterminate the bandits! "His tone seemed to be implying something.
"East Guarding General!" Although Yang Hong was shocked on the surface, he was laughing coldly in his heart. As expected, this Cao Cao wanted to use his Yangzhou to attack Jingzhou and then give Liu Biao an official position so that he and Jiangdong could work together to resist Yangzhou.
Yang Hong sneered in his heart. However, he still did a good job on the surface. "If that's the case, then I must congratulate the East Suppressing General. Congratulations to Duke Jing Sheng for his promotion!"
Yang Hong's compliment made Liu Biao nod his head contentedly.
"Envoy Yang, my lord has already sent people to count the wealth your lord left in my Jingzhou. The 90,000 gold has also been prepared and is waiting for Envoy Yang to come over and take it back." This side was really polite. Ninety thousand gold didn't even blink when he agreed. Even Yang Hong, who had followed his corrupt lord and scraped three feet from the ground, couldn't help but sigh at Jing Province's wealth.
Yang Hong could not help but think that if he had directly let Yuan Shu attack Jingzhou, it would not have ended up like this.
"Then I will have to trouble East Guarding General. My lord will definitely remember your kindness and let the Jingyang generation have a good relationship!" Yang Hong also returned the favor.
Liu Biao wanted these words. As long as Yangzhou did not attack again, the 90,000 gold would be worth it. As long as Jingzhou was given enough time, they would be able to protect themselves.
"Envoy Yang, my lord still has one more thing to ask." Huang She's subordinate said.
"Hm? What else does Liu Zhendong want to ask? "
"I don't know when Miss Wu will leave Jiangling for Yangzhou after bringing her cousin and a group of guards to visit her relatives." Huang She's subordinate emphasized the guard's tone.
Visit her relatives? Miss Wu? Guard? Yang Hong's eyes turned. He naturally knew of the Wu family of Jiangling. The young miss of the Wu family wasn't going back to visit her family, but to seek revenge. Now that Jing Zhou was asking when she was going back, and the guard's tone was heavy, Yang Hong quickly understood.
Miss Wu's cousin was Lu Xun. Miss Wu was Lu Xun's cousin. This guard was naturally Lu Xun's Yangzhou troops. Jingzhou wanted Yangzhou troops to leave Jiangling and wanted to redeem Jiangling? Could it be that this matter was settled?
Yang Hong looked at Huang She. The Huang Family wanted Jiangling. Yang Hong had heard from Xu Shu that Yangzhou wanted to sell Jiangling. Because Yangzhou was currently building cannons and ships, Yangzhou was short on money. Naturally, they would need to give Yang Hong some change. Because of this, Yang Hong came to Jingzhou to extort money from Jingzhou. Unfortunately, Xu Shu inadvertently mentioned Jiangling. Jiangling was of little value to Yangzhou, it was a pity to throw it away.
Jiangling's defense was good compared to Yangzhou because of Huarong Dao. But at the same time, Jiangling also had its drawbacks. That was the communication between Jiangling and Yangzhou. If the Yangtze River's waterway was not dredged, Jiangling would become an isolated city.
It was not worth it to station troops in an isolated city. So Xu Shu wanted to sell it and the seller seemed to be the Huang family.
The Huang Clan was not stupid. It would be impossible for them to fork out the money. However, if Liu Biao were to fork out the money, it would be different. Jiangling was at the border of the five counties of Jingzhou. If it were to be recovered, the Huang Clan would naturally be in charge of it. Spending the Lord's money would increase the Huang Clan's influence. However, they did not expect that it would be so fast.
"Miss Wu and her cousin were about to leave Jiangling. But for some reason, Miss Wu's main residence and family business in Jiangling need someone to take care of it. Otherwise, it will be ruined sooner or later." Yang Hong said with difficulty.
"Those main residence and family business can be sold. Miss Wu is no longer living in Jingzhou. She has no time to clean up those ancestral properties." The Jingzhou civil and military officials could not help but roll their eyes. The Wu family's property was either burned to ashes or taken away by Liu Pan. How could there be any ancestral properties?
"Envoy Yang, I wonder if Miss Wu's ancestral properties are worth a few hundred thousand gold." Liu Pan mocked. Liu Pan could not wait for Yang Hong to raise the price. If the price was too high, then Liu Biao would not redeem it.
One must know that Liu Biao's wealth was now his. So what if Liu Biao used his own money to buy a city for the Huang family?
Huang She also looked at Yang Hong nervously, hoping that Yang Hong would not ask for too much.
"Last time, someone offered 150,000 gold, but Miss Wu was not willing to sell it." Yang Hong started to raise the price again. 150,000 gold? The entire Wu family might be worth that much, but the Wu family was now in ruins. But thinking about it, 150,000 gold was not much. Compared to the King Of Shu, Liu Mang, who asked for 90,000 gold for a house, it was much better.
"150,000?" Huang She and Liu Pan were both stunned. Huang She was first shocked, then overjoyed. As for Liu Pan, it was the opposite. He was first shocked, then furious.
"What's wrong? Is it too much? Or does Jingzhou not have enough money? "Yang Hong thought to himself. He wanted to ask for less. However, he did not expect that Liu Biao would agree to it.
"Alright, 150,000 gold it is. I will definitely prepare enough money for Envoy Yang to send to Yangzhou." Liu Biao thought about it, then clenched his teeth and agreed. Originally, they had planned to spend between 200,000 and 300,000 Gold. However, Yang Hong had set the price at 150,000 Gold. Thinking about it, they had actually made a profit.
"Oh?" Yang Hong was also stunned. Why was it so straightforward? Originally, Yang Hong wanted to bargain with Jing Zhou for a while. He didn't think that Jing Zhou would be so straightforward. Yang Hong immediately regretted it. If he had known earlier, he would have asked for more. But since he had already said it, it was hard for him to take it back.
"It's a total of two hundred and forty thousand gold. Envoy Yang, don't worry. I will definitely arrange it for you. Envoy Yang, you can stay for dinner tonight. "Liu Biao waved his hand.
"Then I will respectfully accept your invitation."
That night, the two hosts of the manor seemed to have left early. Liu Biao left because of his health, while Yang Hong left because he had something on his mind.
The next day, Jingzhou's speed was not bad. It didn't take long for the two hundred and forty thousand gold to fill dozens of ships and head for the Yangtze River's northern shore.
Liu Mang was overjoyed. With this money, he would no longer have to see Xu Shu and Mi Zhu's bitter faces. Mi Zhu and Xu Shu were also happy to have so much money in their treasury. But when they thought about how this money would soon be used to build ships and cannons, their happiness faded.
"Uncle Hong, you did a good job." Liu Mang was not stingy with his praise.
"This is what I should do." Yang Hong bowed and said to Liu Mang.
"Jingzhou is really rich," said Ye Futian. Liu Mang looked at the jewelry and couldn't help but sigh. Two hundred and forty thousand gold was not a small amount. It was enough to buy five or six hundred thousand dans of provisions. But Liu Biao quietly took out this much money. This was just a drop in the bucket for Jingzhou.
"The land of Jingchu was originally a wealthy place. In addition, after the Yellow Turban War, nearly half of the nobles in the Central Plains moved to Jingzhou in order to avoid the chaos of war and protect their family properties. That's why Jingzhou was so lively and became the richest place." Xu Shu also sighed. When Xu Shu was in his hometown, those who were rich were considered rich. But in Jingzhou, they were only slightly better off merchants or commoners. Just by eating, one would be able to earn that much. Even commoners were like this, let alone nobles. Liu Biao was the master of Jingzhou.
"If we take over Jingzhou, then we can be as rich as a nation." Liu Mang could not help but become interested in Jingzhou. Xu Shu who was beside him quickly went forward to dissuade him. "Milord. Although Jingzhou is rich, it has been depleted over the years. The remaining wealth is in the hands of the nobles of Jingzhou."
"Nobles?" Liu Mang thought for a moment. "Since it's in the hands of the nobles, then let's take it!" Liu Mang didn't care about the nobles.
"Milord, you can't do that." Most of the nobles in Jingzhou were nobles. If Liu Mang cleaned up these nobles, then no nobles in the world would support Liu Mang, and no one would surrender to Liu Mang. Liu Mang killed the nobles of Wancheng City and was almost ostracized by the world's nobles. If Liu Mang didn't marry Yuan Shu's daughter, Yuan Fang, and get the support of the Yuan family, then no one in Jingzhou would be willing to make friends with Liu Mang.
"Milord, you just made an agreement with Liu Biao. If you attack Jingzhou after getting the money, you will be laughed at by the world!" Xu Shu tried to dissuade Liu Mang from the side. He was afraid that if Liu Mang couldn't figure it out, he would immediately attack Jingzhou.
"Just don't kill them!" Liu Mang waved his hand. He knew that Xu Shu was determined not to let him attack Jingzhou.
Seeing that Liu Mang didn't have the urge to attack Jingzhou, Xu Shu was relieved.
Yang Hong looked at the two on the side and stopped talking. He didn't know what he was hesitating about.
"Uncle Hong, you must be tired from going to Jingzhou. Go back and rest early!" Liu Mang shouted to the guard on the side. "Someone come and prepare a gift to send Uncle Hong back. Also, go to the treasury and take hundreds of gold coins to Uncle Hong's residence."
"No need, no need, this old minister is only a son. I don't have many servants. My salary is enough. Milord should keep this money for your great cause." Yang Hong declined. "This old minister is just …"
"En?" Seeing that Yang Hong was hesitating, Liu Mang felt a little strange. "Uncle Hong, there are no outsiders here. Just say it!"
"Alright, this old minister will be frank!" Yang Hong thought for a while and finally spoke. "Milord, this old minister wants to know about Milord and Madam Cai in Jingzhou."
Liu Mang's smiling face suddenly froze. "Uncle Hong, you must be tired. Go back." Liu Mang's expression was very ugly.
"This old minister just wants to tell Milord."
"Someone come and see the guest out." Liu Mang's expression became even more gloomy.
"Yes!" A few guards came forward and saluted Yang Hong. "Official Yang, please excuse us!"
"Milord, even if you don't talk about it, you will find out sooner or later. This old minister just wants to tell Milord that there is such a poor woman in Jingzhou. She already has your child in her arms!" Yang Hong said loudly to Liu Mang.
"En?" Liu Mang's whole body was trembling. "That child is not mine. Not mine! He's already dead. He's dead. "His entire face was contorted.
"Ai!" Yang Hong sighed bitterly. "Sure enough! Some lovers would become enemies in the end! Send this old man out. "Yang Hong was carried out.
"Milord!" Xu Shu stood on the side and did not speak. When Yang Hong left, Xu Shu called out softly.
"Yuanzhi, I forgot myself. I made a fool of myself in front of you." Liu Mang finally calmed down and showed an ugly smile to Xu Shu.
"Milord, there is no need to be so distant between us!" Xu Shu said to Liu Mang with a bitter smile. Although Xu Shu did not know what happened in Jingzhou, he knew that there must be something that Liu Mang could not untie.
Xu Shu did not continue to harp on it and changed the topic to let Liu Mang feel better. "Milord, the letter has already been sent to Jiangdong. Military Advisor Chen's men have also been dispatched."
"Good, good! Jiangdong's Sun Ce, whether he lives or dies depends on himself. "Liu Mang also changed his mood and looked at the south bank of the Yangtze River." She is fine. "
Xu Shu did not know whether he was referring to him or her. He could only shake his head with a bitter smile and leave the hall.
…
"They are out, they are out." It was rare for the weather in Jiangdong to be so good. On this day, carriages and horses were gathered in the General's Mansion. There were also many soldiers and horses, all of them ready to go.
"Is there going to be a war again?" The people outside the General's Mansion were puzzled.
"What a sin, what a sin. This chaotic world, I don't know when it will end." The people on the side sighed. "Our family's San Wazi has already passed away. If there is a war again, how many people will die?"
The old man's words made the people on the side sad. In Jiangdong, which family did not have soldiers who had died? Even if they were not direct relatives, they were relatives of seven or eight generations.
"Don't talk nonsense. How can there be a war now? Wu Hou did not recruit soldiers. This time, I heard that Wu Hou is going hunting in the forest. That's why there are so many soldiers! "Someone seemed to know something and said to the people.
"Hunting?"
"Yes! He is going hunting outside the city. That's why there are soldiers following him. "
"As long as there is no war, as long as there is no war."
This commoner guessed correctly. Marquis Wu, Sun Ce, really went out to hunt.
Since the defeat at the Yangtze River, Sun Ce had been staying in his Marquis Wu's mansion and did not go anywhere. All day long, he drank to drown his sorrows. Finally, because of Zhou Yu's words, Sun Ce cheered up a little. In order to show that he was no longer addicted to alcohol, he decided to go hunting.
"Brother, this time I will go hunting with you!" Zhou Yu also stood on the side and said to Sun Ce.
"No need, Gong Jin. This time I am going to relax and want to be alone. If you are with me, I won't be able to let go. "Sun Ce said to Zhou Yu with a smile.
"Brother, are you really okay?" Zhou Yu still looked at Sun Ce doubtfully. Although his arrogant words a few days ago had indeed stunned Sun Ce, he was afraid that Sun Ce would do the opposite.
"Don't worry, your brother is absolutely fine. I will be gone for a day or two and will be back soon. During the time I am not here, I will leave Jianye to you, Gong Jin." Sun Ce still had that kind of warm smile. There was also a kind of confidence that made Zhou Yu feel relieved.
"That's good, that's good. Yu still has matters to deal with, I will not send you off." Zhou Yu was busy with the compensation for the soldiers. Jiangdong had no money, so he still had to pay the families of the soldiers. Therefore, a penny had to be deducted and used for two. This made Zhou Yu so busy.
"You go!" Sun Ce waved his hand and said.
"Husband, can't you bring more soldiers this time?" Sun Ce's wife on the side said to Sun Ce worriedly. Sun Ce was originally a child of a noble family. Generally speaking, the children of noble families would marry concubines very early. It was difficult for them to have a wife later. Originally, Sun Ce's wife should be Big Joe, but Big Joe was gone. Therefore, he could only promote this concubine who had accompanied him since childhood to be his wife.
"Are these soldiers not enough?" Sun Ce patted his wife's shoulder. "Now that Jiangdong is exhausted, it is too late for the soldiers to defend the city. There is no need for us to disturb them."
"What about General Lu Meng and General Ling Cao? You have to take them with you." Madam Ping was still a little worried.
"It's fine, it's fine. I still have important matters for the two of them to do. I did not even let Gong Jin accompany them. What can the two of them do?"
"In that case, husband, go early and come back early!" Sun Ce comforted his wife and left with more than a dozen soldiers.
Watching Sun Ce leave the city gate and disappear, Madam Sun Ce returned to Marquis Wu's residence with her servant.
"Second Young Master, Marquis Wu has left." Mrs. Ping was not the only one who was paying attention to Sun Ce's whereabouts. In another restaurant, a man who looked a bit like Sun Ce picked up a glass of wine and listened to a middle-aged man's report. He nodded and said, "En."
"Second Young Master, it's time for us to take action!" The middle-aged man beside him urged the young man.
"Xu Gong, you have been following me for a long time!" The young man put down his wine glass and asked the middle-aged man beside him.
The middle-aged man called Xu Gong thought for a while and said, "Second Young Master, including today, it has been exactly one and a half years!"
"Only one and a half years!" The young man repeated. His repetition made Xu Gong feel very awkward. Normally, the longer you worked under the master, the greater the master's favor towards you, and the more assured the master would be with you. However, Xu Gong had only been working under the second young master for a year and a half at most.
"Xu Gong, do you know why I allowed you to participate in this matter even though you have only followed me for one and a half years?" The young man said while fiddling with his wine glass.
"This, this, is because I am loyal to Second Young Master and pledged my life to you?" The middle-aged man stammered.
"Haha!" The young man chuckled and his voice was full of disdain and ridicule. "Loyal? Pledged your life to me? Haha, Xu Gong, Xu Gong, are you really not telling the truth? Who was the one who went to Envoy Cao's room behind my back? One and a half hours. Haha, you are very familiar with that Envoy Cao! "Every time the young man said a word, Xu Gong's forehead would sweat more.
"Second Young Master, please spare my life, Second Young Master, please spare my life. This subordinate, this subordinate has never been disloyal to Second Young Master." Xu Gong quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Sun Quan. His forehead almost cracked the floor, and blood flowed from his forehead to his face. Very quickly, his face was covered with blood, and it made people feel terrified.
"Spare your life? Haha! " The young man smiled. "When did I say that I wanted to kill you? If I wanted to kill you, I would have thrown you into the Yangtze River when you went back! I would have waited until now. "
Xu Gong was now even more afraid of this Second Young Master. "If you want to have another way, there is no problem. I will not stop you! People walk to higher places, water flows to lower places! "
"This subordinate does not dare, this subordinate does not dare!" Xu Gong stood up again.
"I am using you because I know that you hate my big brother. You can't wait for my big brother to die." The young man said to Xu Gong. Who was Xu Gong originally? He was the head of the Xu Family in Jianye. When Sun Ce first entered Jiangdong, Xu Gong did not put Sun Ce in his eyes. He thought that Sun Ce was just a brute. Therefore, he offended Sun Ce. He did not know that Sun Ce might not dare to offend all the nobles in Jiangdong, but he dared to offend one family.
Therefore, Sun Ce was angry and exterminated Xu Gong's family. According to reason, the Xu Family should have been completely exterminated by Sun Ce. However, the Second Young Master kept them alive. Xu Gong had a deep hatred for Sun Ce, so naturally, he could be used by Sun Quan. As for the others, even if they were Sun Quan's confidants, Sun Quan didn't dare to use them so freely. If he accidentally told his elder brother, then Sun Quan would be finished. After all, if he could give these people things, his elder brother could also give them.
"Get up. If you continue like this, don't talk about me killing you, you will kill yourself!" The young man waved his hand. "This matter is over. Whether you stay in Jiangdong or go to Xudu, I don't care what you do. But there is one thing I want you to do, and that is, you have to do it beautifully. Do you understand? If not, then even if you run to Xu Du, I can still take your life! "Sun Ce's eyes were filled with killing intent. Xu Gong was scared and nodded repeatedly.
"Go! It's time for you to do something! "Sun Quan waved his hand at Xu Gong.
Only then did Xu Gong depart respectfully. Seeing Xu Gong leave with seven or eight armored soldiers, Sun Quan didn't know why he felt so uneasy in his heart.
"Men!" Sun Quan shouted to his subordinates.
"Second Young Master!"
"Prepare a horse and a sword for me. I am going out!" Sun Quan said to the servants.
"Yes!" Soon, Sun Quan disappeared from Jianye.
… …
"Good!" In the dense forest dozens of li outside of Jianye City, a flying arrow flew over. A nimble wild rabbit wanted to rely on its vigorous footwork to dodge, but it did not expect that in front of this flying arrow, its footwork was futile.
A long sword directly pierced through the hare and nailed it to the ground.
"My Lord, good archery!" The hare was already more than a hundred steps away, but Sun Ce was still able to bend down and shoot an arrow. It can be seen that Sun Ce's archery skill is very high.
"Go and get the hare back!" Sun Ce said to his subordinates. One of his subordinates already had seven or eight hares on his horse. These were all shot by Sun Ce.
"They are all hares. This is too disappointing! Let's go hunt in the dense forest. " Sun Ce's expression showed that he was interested in the dense forest.
"My Lord, the road in this dense forest is unclear. I am afraid there will be danger." The knight on the side tried to dissuade Sun Ce.
"Danger? Is it a beast or a snake? " Sun Ce said disdainfully. "I, Sun Ce of Jiangdong, am known as the Little Overlord. When have I ever been afraid of danger? It is fine if these beasts do not come out. If they come out, they will become the prey of my, Sun Ce's, arrow! "
"This!" The knight still wanted to persuade because Madam Ping had instructed them before coming out to hunt outside the dense forest to relax and go back.
"Stop talking!" Just as the knight was stunned, Sun Ce had already ridden his horse into the depths of the dense forest.
When the knights saw that their Lord had entered, they could only chase after him.
"Look, there is a big deer over there!" Sun Ce's sharp eyes were also lucky. As soon as he entered the dense forest, he immediately saw a fat deer eating grass.
I really hate a good deer. Its body is strong and healthy, and its meat is plump. Unfortunately, it met me, Sun Ce.
Sun Ce bent his waist and drew his bow. In one breath, a sharp arrow flew directly towards the deer that was eating.
"Pa!" The arrow fell beside the deer. This was not because Sun Ce lost his aim, but because the deer was suddenly vigilant and dodged by instinct.
The deer also saw Sun Ce and the others. It looked at Sun Ce and immediately turned around and ran in the other direction.
"Don't think of leaving!" When Sun Ce and the others saw such a good deer, how could they give up? So they immediately chased after it with all their might.
"You go over there, you go over here, you two go to the back!" Sun Ce ordered his soldiers to surround the deer one by one. In the dense forest, it was impossible to catch the deer by relying on the horses. If Sun Ce was still riding the Black Dragon, then it would not be a problem. But the Black Dragon had died in the battlefield of Wancheng city. Now, although Sun Ce was riding a good horse, it was not as fast as the deer. To deal with the deer, they could only rely on driving it away and cutting off its escape route. When being chased, the elk would definitely be in a panic and do whatever it wanted to do. As long as they drove it to a certain place, they could naturally kill it.
Sun Ce chased from the front while the knights surrounded the deer from the side.
"How good would it be if this forest was the Central Plains!" Sun Ce chased the deer and could not help but think. Chasing the deer from the Central Plains had always been Sun Ce's idea. Originally, he wanted to rely on Jiangdong, which was also the source of Jing Chu, to enter the Central Plains. Who knew that Jiangdong had the Yangtze River as a barrier, which also became a cage that completely trapped Sun Ce in Jiangdong. Shaking his head, Sun Ce threw away all these unhappy things and continued to chase the deer.
The elk's figure was getting closer and closer to Sun Ce. Sun Ce fixed his eyes on the elk and couldn't help but be happy because the elk was just in front of him. Moreover, it was lying on the ground. Could it be that one of the knights had caught him in advance?
Sun Ce was about to ride his horse, but suddenly a fishy wind blew and a roar shook the sky.
