Chapter 2546: Sun Jian’s death, Ying Sun’s marriage


    Chapter 2543: Sun Jian’s death, Ying and Sun’s marriage


    After hearing Sun Quan''s hypocritical words, Xiang Tiao couldn''t help laughing and said meaningfully: "As far as the officials know, this may not be necessary. Your Highness should not be willing to accept it. Just treat it as a tool to save the deposed prince Sun Ce."


    Sun Quan heard the mockery in Xiang Tiao''s words, his face changed instantly, and he said coldly: "Mr. Xiang, please tell me if you have something to do. I am very busy and don''t have time to guess your purpose."


    Xiang Tiao couldn''t help looking at Sima Yi when he heard this.


    Seeing this, Sima Yi immediately bowed to Sun Quan and said, "Your Highness, the prince, please avoid it."


    "No need, Mr. Zhong, you are the prince''s planner. There is nothing in Wu that needs to be concealed from you."


    Sun Quan said in a deep voice, his words were full of trust in Sima Yi.


    When everyone was not optimistic about him and left him, only Sima Yi, who was named Zhong Da, supported him as always, and even if he left him, he would still plan for him.


    The reason why Sun Jian had the idea of ??deposing the crown prince was Sima Yi''s plan, and later he even planned to seize power.


    It can be said that everything Sun Quan has now was planned by Sima Yi. Without Sima Yi, there would be no Sun Quan now, so Sun Quan was sincerely grateful and trusted to Sima Yi.


    Hearing Sun Quan say this, he waved his hand to Tiaoze and said, "Mr. Zhong doesn''t have to leave. What I said below has something to do with Master."


    Sima Yi looked puzzled when he heard this, but his heart skipped a beat.


    Although his actions in Eastern Wu were extremely hidden and he never showed any flaws, it was still possible to see through his intentions in the eyes of top wise men such as Jia Xu and Zhang Liang.


    Sun Quan was also a little curious about what Xiang Tiao said and what had something to do with Zhong Da, so he asked, "Please tell me a long story."


    "This is a handwritten letter from our country''s Taifu."


    As he said that, Xiang Tiao took out a letter sealed with wax from his sleeve. The envelope was quite thick, indicating that the letter had a lot of contents.


    Seeing this scene, Sima Yi had sweat on his forehead, and his heart was even more nervous, so he couldn''t help but be nervous. After all, the Qin Taifu was the old poisonous substance Jia Xu.


    Jia Xu contacted Sun Quan privately and was also related to himself, which means that his new identity has entered Jia Xu''s sight. Will he see through his disguise?


    Sima Yi didn''t know either, but he hated Jia Xu to the core.


    In the Luoyang coup, he thought there was still a possibility of success, but he ended up falling into the trap set by Jia Xu.


    Sima Yi and Jia Xu lost too much in this fight.


    What he saw was just what Jia Xu deliberately exposed him to see, and he paid a heavy price for his own conceit.


    Liu Ping, a good brother who grew up together, died to save him.


    His biological father Sima Fang was implicated and committed suicide because of him.


    The Sima family suffered heavy losses due to suppression. Unable to recover.


    The eldest brother Sima Lang was exiled to an isolated island thousands of miles away as the prefect.


    And all of this is because of two people, one is himself, and the other is Jia Xu.


    If it weren''t for Jia Xu, the Luoyang coup would not have failed, and naturally there would be no nightmare that happened later.


    Since then, Jia Xu has become a shadow in Sima Yi''s heart, and even hearing this name will make him lose control.


    Sima Yi suppressed half of his heart and hid his emotions, but his unnatural facial expression still aroused Sun Quan''s curiosity.


    In Sun Quan''s mind, Sima Yi always looked calm and composed, as if nothing could cause his emotional fluctuations.


    Now that Sima Yi just heard Jia Xu''s name, he had such a big reaction, which made Sun Quan feel a little curious about what kind of grudge Sima Yi and Jia Xu had.


    After opening the letter, Sun Quan saw the beginning and couldn''t stop ecstasy, because Jia Xu clearly stated in the letter that the Qin Dynasty was willing to support him in the position of King Wu.


    Later, Jia Xu also said in his letter that the State of Chu had too high demands on releasing Sun Ce. If he really ceded the three counties of Yuzhang and Lujiang County, the Eastern Wu would be the lamb to be slaughtered.


    The Qin Dynasty did not want the Chu State to continue to grow, nor did he want to see the imbalance in the situation in the Jiangnan region. The interests between the Qin and Wu countries were consistent, so Sun Quan did not have to doubt the sincerity of the Qin Dynasty supporting him.


    Sun Quan originally suspected that Jia Xu was not planning to plot against him. After all, the name of the poisonous warrior Jia Xu is too loud. No one can be ignored by him. He will definitely doubt whether he has any other calculations.


    But after seeing this, Sun Quan''s suspicion was mostly gone. After all, in dealing with the State of Chu, the interests between Qin and Wu were indeed consistent. Apart from this, he did not see that Jia Xu had other intentions to use him.


    Of course, this is just the content at the beginning, and when he saw the middle, Sun Quan immediately began to frown because Jia Xu vaguely speculated in the letter that he had a connection with Chu State.


    Sun Quan was extremely shocked at this. After all, he left no traces when doing those things. So how did Jia Xu, who was thousands of miles away, know?


    Is it because he has the undercover agent of Daqin around him?


    Or did Jia Xu analyze it himself?


    Sun Quan felt that the former was unlikely. After all, he had no chance of succeeding to the throne before. It was impossible for Daqin to send an undercover agent around him in advance. Even if he wanted to send him, he would send him to his elder brother Sun Ce, so the possibility of the latter was obviously greater.


    In this regard, Sun Quan was also extremely shocked by Jia Xu''s wisdom, but he was not worried that Jia Xu would use this to threaten him.


    If Jia Xu used this news as a threat before he took power, Sun Quan might be threatened by him.


    Now that Sun Quan is in power, Jia Xu can''t produce any evidence. Even if he really exposes these things, he cannot shake his status.


    Jia Xu is the most top wise man in the world. He has never used this to threaten Sun Quan before, so he will definitely not use this as a threat in the future.


    Thinking of this, Sun Quan was not worried much.


    Although Jia Xu pointed out in the letter that Sun Quan might have a connection with Chu State, he had no intention of exposing him. Instead, he urged Sun Quan to be cautious and not let someone catch a handle when he went there.


    In addition, Jia Xu also reminded Sun Quan in his letter that the State of Chu was just using him. His collusion with the State of Chu was to have a trick on his skin, and his most trusted planner Zhong Da was a spy of the State of Chu. Zhong Da''s true identity was most likely Sima Yi, a traitor to the Qin Dynasty. Seeing this, Sun Quan suddenly widened his eyes, his eyes full of disbelief, but he still held back the uneasiness in his heart and looked on.


    After reading it, Sun Quan''s eyes were full of murderous intent and said coldly to Xiang Tiao: "Please come back with your envoy, Grand Tutor Jia said, this prince needs to think carefully."


    Xiang Tiao looked at the uneasy Sima Yi jokingly, clasped his fists and said, "The foreign minister gave up."


    After Xiang Tiao left, Sun Quan stared at Sima Yi, held the hilt of the sword around his waist with his right hand, and said coldly: "Are you Mr. Zhong or Mr. Sima?"


    Hearing this, Sima Yi''s pupils shrank suddenly, and three words appeared in his mind: It''s over.


    In an instant, Sima Yi had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and he also had the idea of ??hijacking Sun Quan as a threat to escape from the Wu Kingdom.


    However, this method obviously doesn''t work. After all, although Sun Quan''s war is not very good, his own strength is not weak, and he is stronger than Sima Yi anyway.


    If Sun Quan was not prepared, Sima Yi would still have the possibility of hijacking him, but Sun Quan was obviously already prepared and it would be impossible to hijack him, let alone other guards in the hall.


    As soon as he thought of this, Sima Yi gave up his resistance. Instead, he calmly unbuttoned the mask of human skin and said bitterly: "Sima Zhongda, see Your Highness the Crown Prince."


    When Sun Quan heard this, he closed his eyes in pain, his heart full of disappointment and anger. He hoped that Jia Xu''s words were false, but the facts were what he wanted.


    Sima Yi, who was named Zhong Da, had no loyalty to him at all. The reason why he helped him plan so much was that he took the mission of Chu and achieved the goal of splitting Wu.


    After a long silence, Sun Quan waved his hand expressionlessly and said to the guards: "Prepare him to death."


    Two guards stepped forward, one on the left and the other on the right, and Sima Yi did not resist or explain, and allowed the guards to take him away like a fate.


    Sima Yi thought he was dead, but after staying in the death row for three days, he didn''t wait for the order to execute him, but instead waited for Sun Quan who came to visit the prison.


    Sun Quan brought good wine and good dishes this time. Sima Yi thought Sun Quan was here to send him on the way, so he feasted without any taboo. Even if he died, he would be a full devil.


    But what Sima Yi did not expect was that after he had enough food and drink, Sun Quan still did not kill him, but instead asked him a question.


    "Sima Yi, why do you want to join Liu Xiu?"


    Hearing Sun Quan''s words, Sima Yi did not hesitate and replied decisively: "For revenge, whoever can make me revenge on the Qin Dynasty will be loyal to me."


    "What if I, Sun Quan, can help you avenge the Qin Dynasty? Will you be loyal to me wholeheartedly?" Sun Quan asked again.


    Sima Yi showed a look of shock on his face. He never expected that Sun Quan would win over him, but the hope of life was close to him, so he naturally would not miss this opportunity.


    "Yes, as long as His Royal Highness can make me revenge, what''s wrong with selling Sima Yi to you?"


    Sun Quan nodded with satisfaction and said in a deep voice: "Sima Yi is already dead. You are Zhong Da and have nothing to do with Sima Yi.


    And remember, it was me, Sun Quan, who gave you the second life. In the future, you Zhong Da will only be loyal to me, Sun Quan. ”


    "No." Sima Yi shouted.


    Sun Quan did not kill Sima Yi but after careful consideration, after all, he had just taken the position of crown prince and revealed that the think tank around him was a spy from Chu, which was also a huge blow to his prestige.


    Moreover, Sima Yi lurked beside him. Although he had bad intentions, he did help him a lot.


    Everything Sun Quan has now is planned by Sima Yi. He is inseparable from Sima Yi''s wisdom, and no one around him is available now.


    The situation facing Sun Quan now seems to be great, but in fact he is walking on thin ice. If he is accidentally, he will be in a deep abyss. Therefore, he did not kill Sima Yi immediately, but decided to take it for his own use.


    Anyway, Sun Quan could not give Sima Yi any more freedom. As long as Sima Yi was dedicated to giving him advice in the future, Sun Quan would not mind that he was a spy sent by the State of Chu.


    As for the promise to promise Sima Yi to avenge him? Sun Quan was not just talking.


    After he succeeded to the throne, destroyed the Chu State, killed Liu Xiu, and completely unify Jiangnan, the queen would naturally confront the Qin Dynasty and would help Sima Yi to avenge him.


    "Lord, something is wrong, the king has woken up."


    "What?"


    Sun Quan was shocked. One of the prerequisites for his succession was that Sun Jian should not wake up.


    Once Sun Jian wakes up, he will definitely realize that he has been drugged, so he will remain unconscious.


    At that time, Sun Quan, as the crown prince, is the number one suspect. Not to mention inheriting the throne, he may be imprisoned by Sun Jian as soon as possible.


    At this time, Sun Quan didn''t care about Sima Yi anymore and hurried back to the palace to check the situation, but found that Sun Jian had only woken up for half an hour and then fainted and fell asleep again.


    This also made Sun Quan feel relieved. After all, as long as he didn''t wake up completely, everything would be fine.


    But since Sun Jian can come here once, he may be waking up for the second time.


    As soon as he thought of this, Sun Quan had already made a decision in his heart. He said to Sun Shangxiang, who was scrubbing Sun Jian''s body, "Little sister, the father should be about to wake up. Go and call the queen over."


    "Um."


    Sun Shangxiang nodded happily, but when she came back with Princess Wu, her father Sun Jian had turned into a corpse.


    "Father."


    Sun Shangxiang was the first to pounce on Sun Jian''s body and burst into tears. Then the entire Wu Prince''s Mansion also started crying.


    The next day, Sun Quan invited Xiang Tiao, the ambassador of Qin to Wu, expressing his hope to send Sun Shangxiang to Luoyang and that Qin and Wu would marry together as soon as possible to consolidate the alliance.
