Chapter 122
Guan Yu's itinerary was at this moment related to the situation in almost the entire Jingzhou, and he himself really didn't realize it.
This is not because Liu Bei and Guan Yu are not capable, but because they have just arrived in Jingzhou.
On Liu Biao's territory, their intelligence network has not been established yet, and Cai Mao and Kuai Yue have been operating in the territory of Jingzhou for many years. This experience is definitely not something they can compare with.
Moreover, Guan Yu was all about cleaning up the relationship between himself and Mrs. Mi, so he couldn't take care of other things.
When Guan Yu walked less than halfway, Sun Ce from Wujun also received news.
After Sun Ce received the news, the first thing he thought of was nothing else, but his admiration for Liu Xie, the initiator of this incident.
He had no idea why Liu Xie could judge that Guan Yu would definitely return. Whether it was him, Zhou Yu, or other ministers from Jiangdong, they obviously could not make such a judgment.
After thinking for a long time, Sun Ce resisted the urge to go to Liu Xie in person. He had been crushed by others in terms of IQ. If he put down his figure at this time, it would not be the case. Although he is the emperor, Jiangdong's foundation is his own.
So he found Zhang Hong and Zhou Yu who knew about this matter immediately.
"According to the scout's return, Guan Yu once again went to my Wujun direction from Xinye. He thought he would come back three or four days later. This is consistent with the predictions when His Majesty came up with this idea. You two think, how should we act on this matter? Should we still use His Majesty to help him, or should we just keep Guan Yu this time?"
Obviously, Sun Ce had some ideas in his mind at this time, but these ideas were not yet mature.
"The reason Guan Yu was able to go to Jiangdong alone at this time only shows that he still attaches great importance to Mrs. Mi. At the beginning, since he could put Mrs. Mi here and take Mrs. Gan back, this means that he did not fully gain Liu Bei's trust after he returned. This time, it is a last resort. From this perspective, this is indeed an opportunity for Bo Fu, you recruit Guan Yu."
The first thing that pointed out this matter was Zhang Hong. With his ability and experience, he could naturally see the background of Guan Yu's arrival this time.
Sun Ce nodded, but then said with concern: "Your Majesty once said before that Guan Yu is a man who is rather rude than bent. Liu Bei is in Xinye, so he will not be at ease to defect to me Jiangdong. What do you think?"
Zhou Yu knew that it was his turn to express his opinion at this time, but now he may feel that his opinion cannot be accepted too much by Sun Ce, so he waited for a long time before saying it.
"Your Majesty's analysis of Guan Yu's temperament should be correct. He has proved this before trying every means to return to Xiangyang. However, what I am worried about now is whether Your Majesty still has a way out in this matter. If this is the case, we will act rashly and may miss something!"
Zhou Yu's advice was actually considered to be a painstaking person.
After all, Sun Ce would definitely not be happy when he heard this, but based on Zhou Yu's understanding of Liu Xie, Liu Xie must have a follow-up to Guan Yu, and his follow-up will not only involve Guan Yu.
In fact, the same idea was also found in Sun Ce and Zhang Hong's heads, but Sun Ce was a little embarrassed to say it.
"Since that's the case, the three of us will go to Your Majesty's palace together and tell Your Majesty about Guan Yu's current movements. If Your Majesty really has some backup plan for this matter, we can use the trick. If Your Majesty has no backup plan, our Jiangdong ministers will do the recruitment themselves, what about?"
Sun Ce’s meaning is actually quite obvious, that is, he also wants to find an opportunity to find something to bend, but whether he gives this opportunity or not depends on Liu Xie.
Zhang Hong and Zhou Yu naturally had no objection to this proposal, so the three of them immediately decided to go to Liu Xie's Palace at noon.
As for why this time is set at noon, it is because the three of them tacitly knew that Liu Xie's palace was about to have dinner at this time.
Moreover, since they ate mutton skewers last time at Liu Xie, they have understood even more. Liu Xie thought that eating was really a trick, and his attainment in this regard was definitely not inferior to that in women.
Another reason why Sun Ce was able to fall down and come to Liu Xie's palace was that he heard that his sister Sun Shangxiang had been getting along very well with Liu Xie's queen Fu Shou and Qiao Feng during this period.
Even before, she had a discussion with Liu Xie when she went to the palace for the second time. In the end, Sun Shangxiang brought Liu Xie off the martial arts stage, which was considered to avenge her brother.
Of course, Sun Ce also heard that the reason she could hit Liu Xie was because Liu Xie gave her one hand, and somehow he was careless. It is said that Liu Xie would have punched him and hit a bulge on Sun Shangxiang's chest.
After that, Sun Shangxiang no longer called Liu Xie a puppet without any trouble, and she went to Liu Xie's palace more and more frequently. Of course, she went there to teach the Fu Shou and the Qiao sisters.
However, after she went to Liu Xie's palace for a while, she once looked for Sun Ce, with the goal of wanting a martial arts venue as big as in Liu Xie's palace.
As a result, Sun Shangxiang's request was rejected by Sun Ce on the grounds that her mansion was too small. Of course, Sun Shangxiang didn't know what his brother was thinking.
Now Sun Shangxiang goes to the palace almost every morning, and finally it is said that she usually eats with the queen and the others. As for whether there is Liu Xie, Sun Ce has never asked, so today he chose this time to go by, and he also wanted to take a look at this matter.
When Liu Xie received the news that Sun Ce was about to come, he was indeed preparing his own lunch, and Sun Shangxiang was indeed on the lunch list.
Regarding Sun Shangxiang, Liu Xie did not take any quick success or instant benefits, because he had already touched Sun Shangxiang's temper and character through several previous contacts.
Liu Xie naturally had a good way to deal with her. In addition, he also had an undercover agent like Qiao Feng installed by her side. Liu Xie felt that it was only a matter of time before he took down Sun Shangxiang.
Suddenly, when he heard that Sun Ce was coming, the first thing he thought of was whether he had provoked someone else's sister to be discovered by him. He would have come to attack the enemy and questioned him.
