Sun Quan completely admired Zhang Zhao's plan, so when the two of them discussed some details, they immediately took action.

According to Sun Quan's idea, the faster the matter is, the better, because the longer it takes, the less it is easier to complete, and it is also easy to cause disgust among the civil and military ministers of Jiangdong.

The most important thing now is to stabilize the civil and military ministers in Jiangdong, and they must quickly get back their brother's body, so he can't wait to pull the army to the riverside to negotiate with Lu Bu.

Under such circumstances, no one is sure whether Sun Quan has other ideas, but in this case, other people can only let Sun Quan do it. If Sun Quan does not do it well, everyone will naturally support Sun Ce's son.

It is because of this that Sun Quan was so anxious and desperate to regain Zhou Yu's ice spring.

On the other hand, Zhuge Liang, who had been waiting for Jiangdong's action, and Lu Bu finally got their action plan.

According to their ideas, they had to wait for some days, but Zhuge Liang was afraid that Chi Zhe would be sick, so he took the initiative to reveal to Jiangdong that they were ambushing Sun Ce, and now Sun Ce's body is in their hands.

After Zhuge Liang burned all the letters in his hand, he turned to look at Lu Bu, and then said with a smile: "As we expected, Sun Quan couldn't help it. He had already led his troops across the river and wanted to negotiate with his lord."

Lu Bu nodded with a smile, and then took the initiative to seek Zhuge Liang's opinion, "So what should we do? Should we dry it first or take the initiative? If we meet them, we will ignore them and directly send troops to the expedition."

Zhuge Liang thought for a while, and then said, "This time they mostly wanted to delay our time. It was best to be able to negotiate."

"There has been letters from Jiangdong, explaining Sun Quan's current situation. He can't wait to compete for the main attack position, so he must succeed and not fail. We can use this to let him know that we will not give him a little chance now."

"So I think I should first contact the other party and see what conditions the other party can offer. If the conditions offered are better than we imagined, then we can try to make a deal with the other party."

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Then everything is left to the teacher. I am not suitable for negotiations. I will do it all according to the teacher's wishes. That is, if I need to come forward, the teacher only needs to inform me."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said that he understood that he had no objection to his lord being a hand-off manager. Instead, he was 10 minutes happy because everyone hoped that his boss would like him very much.

So Zhuge Liang directly represented Lu Bu to negotiate with Sun Quan, and the two sides agreed to negotiate at the riverside.

Zhuge Liang seemed to be 10 points casual about Sun Quan's solemn affairs. He only brought Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's entourage, but no one else brought him.

Sun Quan was stunned when he saw this. He didn't expect that the other party didn't seem to see him. This made him feel a scene, but when he thought of his purpose today, he had to greet him with a smile.

After seeing Sun Quan, Zhuge Liang walked up without taking off his airs, then bowed his hand and said, "The Nanyang savage Zhuge Liang came to visit the son of Jiangdong Gong with the order of my lord."

Sun Quan had never heard of Zhuge Liang's name before, but saw three visitors, two of whom were led by Zhuge Liang, so now he could understand that this matter must be decided by Zhuge Liang.

Thinking of this, Sun Quan also laughed, then bowed his hand and said, "I have met Mr. Zhuge."

After they met each other, they sat directly on the table next to them.

When Sun Quan faced Zhuge Liang, he didn't have much implicitness or other thoughts, and said straight to the point: "I think Mr. Zhuge should understand what the purpose of our meeting this time is."

"I won't make any mistakes for Mr. Zhuge. I hope General Lu Bu can return my brother's body."

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he nodded and had a very sympathetic look, "The ancients said it well, and it is safe to be buried. Even if the general doesn't say it, we will definitely return the body of your lord."

When Sun Quan heard this, his face was happy, but he soon discovered something was wrong, because although Zhuge Liang said he wanted to return his brother's body, he did not move at all and sat there as firmly as Mount Tai.

The other two were the same. Zhang Liao and Gao Shun. They were like two pillars, standing there without any expression. No matter how the other party said, they did not move at all.

Sun Quan didn't understand where he saw this. Even if the other party wanted to return his brother's body, he had to pay a certain price.

However, this was the same as they expected before, and the other party's attitude was beyond their reach. They expected that under such circumstances, they could still take the initiative to say that the return of Sun Ce's body could make them feel that it was hopeless.

Therefore, Sun Quan also appropriately put forward his own conditions and negotiated with the other party. "I am very grateful to General Lu for his carelessness. If I can return my brother's body, then the people of Jiangdong will never forget General Lu's kindness, and in certain aspects, they can also give the general some necessary help."

Upon hearing this sentence, Zhuge Liang showed an interesting look on his face, and then he smiled and said, "How do you want to help us?"

Sun Quan knew that if he didn't say something practical, the other party would definitely not be so easy to let go, so he said directly according to his previous thought: "Since everyone is discussing so friendly, then everyone is very good comrades-in-arms. We in Jiangdong can guarantee that we will not participate in the alliance between Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and will never help them."

If Sun Quan really withdraws according to this agreement, it will be a huge blow to the alliance between the three families of Cao, Sun and Liu, and it will be a very convenient method for Lu Bu.

But under this situation, Zhuge Liang could not agree to the other party easily, and then said with a smile:

"To be honest, the young master should be a smart person. You should also understand what my lord wants. He has now unified the north and costs millions. Whether it is a soldier or a general, it is several times the Cao, Sun and Liu families. Even if you three families compete, they cannot cause any harm."

“So your friendship doesn’t seem to matter to us.”
