Wuchang City.

Zhang Zhao stepped down from the big boat, stepped on the land of Wuchang, looked up at Wuchang, and snorted coldly.

"The old man wants to understand what kind of ability this Liu Jue has that can make Lu Zi awe-inspiring like a tiger. A gleam flashed in Zhang Zhao's eyes.

Zhang Zhao, known as Jiangdong Erzhang in his early years, one of the most talented people in Jiangdong, Sun Ce was able to pacify Jiangdong, and he made great efforts in it.

In terms of wisdom, Zhang Zhao may not be as good as Zhou Yu and Lu Su, but he is definitely more serious.

However, Zhang Zhao's mood was a little complicated at this time, because he didn't have much confidence in fighting Cao Cao, or he didn't want to take this risk.

Just like Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, in Zhang Zhao's mind, the clan is the first.

However, Zhang Zhao is a little different from Cai Mao and Kuai Yue, after all, he assisted the two brothers Sun Ce and Sun Quan, and he still has some feelings for the Sun family.

So at this time, Zhang Zhao's mood was very conflicted.

But now that it's all here, it is still necessary to get things done, and Zhang Zhao still plans to be loyal to the monarch and negotiate the alliance. As for whether Cao Cao can be defeated, it depends on the will of heaven.

Liu Jue's mansion in the city, he was at Xiao Qiao's place at this time, holding his son Liu Zheng in his arms, walking around the yard, looking very leisurely.

Liu Zheng has a more lively temperament, although he is less than a year old, he is full of curiosity about the food around him.

Xiao Qiao followed closely, dressed as a standard woman, with a face like a flower and jade, dotted with a happy flush, and a graceful and plump figure, like a ripe peach.

At this time, in the hall of the small courtyard, Da Qiao and Xu were here, chatting softly, while looking at the two people in the courtyard from time to time.

As long as there is nothing special, Da Qiao will always run to Xiao Qiao, and usually bring Xu with him, sometimes he stays for a whole day, especially after Liu Jue comes back, Da Qiao comes more often.

Whether it is to talk to Xiao Qiao to relieve boredom, or to take a look at someone, even Da Qiao himself can't tell the difference, but when he sees someone, Da Qiao's mood will always be inexplicably good.

Seeing his sister's happy face, Da Qiao was not only envious in his heart, but also faintly jealous of his sister, having such a man to rely on.

It's like Sun Ce's short-lived ghost.

Every time Da Qiao thinks of Sun Ce, a trace of resentment flashes in his eyes, between her and Sun Ce, there is no relationship at all, just a man's possession of a beautiful woman.

From Sun Ce's forcible acceptance of her as a concubine to Sun Ce's sudden assassination, not even half a year, what feelings Da Qiao can have for Sun Ce, she can't even remember Sun Ce's appearance now.

As for the Xu family, she gives the impression that she is quiet and a woman who knows the rules very well, and often where Da Qiao is, she will follow her.

Xu is very aware of her status, in Jingzhou, she has no relatives and friends except for Da Qiao, so she has always been very careful in what she says and does.

Of course, in Xu's heart, he was also very envious of Xiao Qiao.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and Zhang Sheng, the personal guard, walked in and bowed to Liu Jue: "Lord, Jiangdong envoy Zhang Zhao is here." "

"Zhang Zhao?" Liu Jue was a little surprised, Jiangdong would send an envoy over, which was what he expected, but he didn't expect it to be Zhang Zhao.

Liu Jue thought it would be Lu Su, after all, it was Lu Su several times before.

Liu Jue handed Liu Zheng over to Xiao Qiao, briefly told a few words, and left with Zhang Sheng.

The four major clans in Jiangdong: Zhang Lu Gu Zhu.

Zhang Zhao is the patriarch of the Zhang clan and an important minister of Jiangdong, and when Sun Ce was still there, he began to serve as the chief minister, which is almost equivalent to the prime minister of Jiangdong.

Zhang Zhao, Prime Minister Jiangdong political affairs, Sun Ce told Sun Quan before his death that if he hesitated about internal affairs, he could ask Zhang Zhao, and Zhou Yu was one inside and one outside, which shows his high status.

However, this person is a surrender faction, in history, Liu Cong surrendered, after Cao Cao took Jiangling, Zhang Zhao advocated surrender, and the reason was the same as Cai Mao and Kuai Yue.

Liu Jue soon came to the hall, and saw an old man sitting in the hall, with gray hair, dignified appearance, and extraordinary bearing, which was a typical image of a scholar.

Liu Jue praised in his heart, he is worthy of being an important minister in Jiangdong, this kind of appearance and bearing, ordinary people can't learn it, no wonder he became the minister of Jiangdong.

At the same time, Zhang Zhao was also looking at Liu Jue, for Jiangdong, Liu Jue was a person who could not be ignored, because Jiangdong had suffered losses at Liu Jue's hands twice.

At first glance, Zhang Zhao felt that Liu Jue was very young, and then he felt Liu Jue's might, and in a trance, he had the illusion of facing Sun Ce.

It's just that Liu Jue gives him a better feeling than Sun Ce, Sun Ce is just simple and fierce, as the saying goes, it is easy to break, and Sun Ce died young in the end.

But Liu Jue is a little different, he has a little more softness, few people can notice it, but Zhang Zhao feels it.

The combination of rigidity and softness will not be too rigid and easy to break.

Zhang Zhao thought secretly in his heart, and then bowed to Liu Jue: "Foreign Minister Zhang Zhao, I have seen General Zhennan. "

"Mr. Zibu is exempt!"

Liu Jue knelt on the throne and said to Zhang Zhao with a smile: "Mr. is an important minister in Jiangdong, and it stands to reason that he has a heavy position, how can he have time to come to my Jingzhou?"

"It's just on the orders of Marquis Wu. Zhang Zhao smiled, of course he couldn't say that Lu Su didn't want to come because he was timid, wasn't that a slap in the face?

"In the next intention, I think the generals have already known about it, so that the two families can form an alliance so that they can resist the Cao army together. Zhang Zhao is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Of course, I know this, and the alliance is imperative, but we still have to discuss the details carefully. Liu Jue smiled slightly.

"What do you mean by daring to ask the general?" asked Zhang Zhao.

"Since it is our two alliances to resist Cao Cao together, I don't know how many soldiers and horses Jiangdong will send?" Liu Jue said directly.

Zhang Zhao pondered for a moment and said: "There are a total of 30,000 elite sailors, with Zhou Yu as the left governor and Cheng Pu as the right governor, and they will go to Dongzhi Shuizhai to camp in the near future." "

Liu Jue nodded and said, "30,000 sailors are enough, I have a proposal here, and I want to discuss it with Mr." "

"The general, but it doesn't hurt to say it. In Zhang Zhao's heart, he suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Now I have heavy troops stationed in Gong'an, Xiakou, Wuchang and other places, but the Yangtze River is too long, and I can't take care of it everywhere, so you send at least 20,000 sailors to garrison between Gong'an and Xiakou. "

Liu Jue said unhurriedly, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

Zhang Zhao frowned subconsciously, vaguely understanding why Lu Su didn't want to come to see Liu Jue.
