Chapter 600

Cao Cao adopted Sima Yi's suggestion and sent people to Jiangdong to discuss the alliance and marriage.

Cao Pi found Sima Yi,

"Zhongda, I heard that Sun Quan's younger sister Sun Shangxiang dances with swords and spears and is quite hot-tempered. She also has over a hundred maidservants by her side, all of whom carry swords to guard her. Why should I marry her?"

Cao Pi did not want to be stabbed by Sun Shangxiang while he was sleeping soundly!

Or, he wouldn't even dare to enter the room.

Sima Yi cupped his hands,

"Young Master, Sun Shangxiang is Sun Ce's younger sister and Sun Jian's legitimate daughter. In the future, when Lord Cao enters Jiangdong, it will be justified."

"The Sun family's civil officials and military generals are extraordinary; Young Master can also make good use of them."

Cao Pi thought about it, and it seemed to make sense.

Sima Yi added,

"Young Master, Sun Shangxiang is as beautiful as a flower, has national beauty, has practiced swordsmanship for a long time, and has an excellent body. Her birth is also high; she is a perfect match for you."

Cao Pi nodded,

"Thank you, Zhongda, for this."

Sun Gao had gathered several thousand troops and was heading south to Kuaiji Commandery.

Lujiang Governor Li Shu had even more openly accepted many scholars who opposed him and had fled!

His third brother Sun Yi was also restless; the person he had just become engaged to was focused on recruiting troops and buying horses.

"Hmph, do you all think I'm easy to bully?"

Sun Quan's eyes were fierce. When it came to forbearance and power politics, these people couldn't catch up to him even if they whipped their horses.

What Sun Quan feared most now was Liu Bei suddenly attacking; then no matter how well he planned, it would be useless.

He still had to resolve the conflict of interests between the Jiangdong powerful clans and the old generals of Huai and Si, and recruit talent.

He first showed respect to the talented, entrusting government affairs to Zhang Zhao and military strategy to Zhou Yu.

He also made Zhu Zhi the Governor of Wu Commandery, tying the Zhu family to his chariot, wanting to govern Jiangdong together with the Jiangdong powerful clans.

He also promoted a group of talented people, such as Zhu Huan and Zhou Tai, and also recruited Zhuge Jin, who was Zhuge Liang's older brother.

"Since that village rustic Zhuge is so amazing, his brother must not be bad either."

Zhang Zhao entered,
