"What the teacher taught me is that I understand." Sun Quan corrected immediately.

Seeing that Sun Quan was willing to correct the situation, Zhang Zhao was very satisfied. He said, "The lord is right. The lord is not young anymore. It's time to get married."

"I wonder if the lord has a favorite candidate?" Zhang Zhao asked Sun Quan.

"Teacher, do you think Princess Ninghe?" Sun Quan said. He still misses Liu Xin.

Liu Zhe refused his identity at that time. Now he is the lord of Jiangdong and one of the princes in the world. He feels that his identity is enough.

"Princess Ninghe?" Zhang Zhao's thoughts did not float so far. His thoughts were still in Jiangdong. After he thought about them in his mind, he found that Jiangdong did not have Princess Ninghe. Then his thoughts floated to Youzhou. He realized that he was surprised and said, "Is the lord the sister of the Taiwei, Princess Ninghe, Liu Xin?"

"Yes, it's her."

Sun Quan said: "Princess Ninghe has a gentle and virtuous personality, and has a beautiful appearance and a beautiful country. She is a rare and unique woman. Since she met her, she has been obsessed with her."

"Lord, do you still want to propose marriage to the Grand Marshal?" Zhang Zhao looked at Sun Quan in surprise.

Sun Quan had proposed it once for Sun Quan, but was mercilessly rejected by Liu Zhe. At that time, Sun Ce was so angry that he wanted to send troops to attack Liu Zhe, but Liu Zhe attacked first, which almost broke out in rebellion in Jiangdong, forcing Sun Ce to act cautiously.

"What if the Grand Marshal refuses again?" Zhang Zhao asked. The last time Liu Zhe refused was Sun Ce. Now Liu Zhe refuses, Sun Quan is so embarrassed.

“No.”

Sun Quan said confidently: "He refused before because of my identity. Now my identity is enough to be on par with him, and it is considered a match for the same family."

"Lord, this matter must not be careless."

Zhang Zhao advised Sun Quan and said, "If the Grand Marshal refuses, the lord will be ridiculed by the world and loses great reputation."

If Sun Quan’s reputation is hit, then Jiangdong, which had just stabilized, might be in chaos again.

"The teacher is right, you must not be careless about this."

Sun Quan listened to Zhang Zhao's first half, and he automatically ignored the second half. He believed that his identity was enough this time, and Liu Zhe had no reason to refuse.

"This matter is self-disciplined." Sun Quan said. He asked Zhang Zhao because he wanted to see Zhang Zhao's opinion. Now that he saw that Zhang Zhao had no intention of refusing, he thought Zhang Zhao had agreed. He thought that he could handle the rest.

Zhang Zhao opened his mouth. He wanted to persuade Sun Quan not to propose marriage to Liu Zhe, but before he could speak out, someone came in outside to report.

"Report to the lord that the angels of the court have entered Lujiang and will arrive soon."

"Ange?" Sun Quan was surprised. What did the court send people to do at this time?

He hurriedly looked at Zhang Zhao's woolen, and Zhang Zhao was also surprised.

"Why is there no news for Zi Gang (Zhang Hong's name)?" Zhang Zhao said in surprise. Zhang Hong was sent by Sun Ce to Xu Du as the position of censor. On the one hand, Zhang Hong asked Zhang Hong to inquire about the news in the court, and on the other hand, he hoped that Zhang Hong would stay in Xu Du to reduce his hostility towards Jiangdong.

If the imperial court sent an envoy, Zhang Hong had no reason not to know.

"Report, letters from the Censor!" Not long after, someone came to report, and this time he brought Zhang Hong's letters.

"Teacher, look." After Sun Quan finished reading it, he handed it to Zhang Zhao.

The content of the letter is very simple, that is, Cao Cao went past the court and privately used the emperor's name to issue an order to Sun Quan, asking Sun Quan to send troops to attack Gongsun Zan in Guangling.

Because he was bypassing the emperor, when Zhang Hong learned the news, the envoy sent by Cao Cao had set out for several days. This is why Zhang Hong's letters were slower.

"Attack Guangling?" Zhang Zhao became silent after reading Zhang Hong's letter.

Zhang Zhao understood that Cao Cao's purpose was to kill Sun Quan and Gongsun Zan, and Cao Cao could make profits from it.

Guangling is the last county in Xuzhou, but this county is not easy to fight.

All Gongsun Zan's troops were concentrated in this county, which was Gongsun Zan's last chassis. Once it failed, Gongsun Zan had no way to retreat. Therefore, no matter who it was, he had to pay a huge price to attack Guangling County.

Cao Cao did not want to bear huge losses, so he turned his eyes to Jiangdong and wanted to use Sun Quan's hands to deal with Gongsun Zan.

Zhang Zhao could be 100% sure that even if Sun Quan captured Guangling, Cao Cao would definitely send troops to attack Guangling as soon as possible to deal with Sun Quan.

However, knowing, it is not that easy to refuse.

First of all, Cao Cao issued an imperial edict in the name of the emperor. If Sun Quan never accepted it, it would be morally untenable. What's more, Jiangdong has just been stable now and urgently needs to be recognized by the court.

"Teacher, what should I do?"

Sun Quan showed a hint of panic on his face. He had just sat in the position of the Lord of Jiangdong and had no experience. He suddenly encountered such a thing, and he didn't know what to do.

"Don't panic, lord."

Zhang Zhao knew the personality of his disciple and comforted him: "It will take some time for the imperial envoy to arrive here, and it will be enough to find a way slowly during this period."
