After Zhuge Jin sat down and saluted with a smile, Guan Yu nodded slightly while stroking his long beard, still not changing his previous aloof style.

"The military advisor is far away in Chengdu, why did Ziyu come here?" Guan Yufeng's eyes were bluffing.

Zhuge Jin put his hands on his legs and said with a smile: "I am here today for two reasons. One is that Governor Zijing died of illness in Jiangxia a few days ago..."

"Zijing died of illness? When did it happen?"

Guan Yu was quite surprised after hearing this. Lu Su was the only person he liked in Jiangdong, so his sudden death shocked him a little.

Because Sun Quan raided Jiangxia a few years ago, the Sun and Liu families had an irreparable rift, so there was not much contact between the two parties, and the news of his death came a little late.

Last year, Lu Su sent envoys to express goodwill to Guan Yu, allowing the two families to resume trade and promote people-to-people exchanges. Unexpectedly, the yin and yang were separated so quickly.

Before Lu Su's death, he was worried that Cao Ren or Guan Yu would attack Jiangxia, so he ordered the defenders of Lukou and Jiangxia to patrol Lukou and Jiangxia without announcing the funeral secretly. Moreover, they secretly transported the corpse out of Jiangxia and back to Jianye at night, so Guan Yu had no idea about Lu Su's death.

"It's been two months..."

Zhuge Jin pretended to be careless, but in fact Lu Su had died four or five months ago.

When Guan Yu heard this, he suddenly frowned, thinking that the people in Jiangdong were very secretive about their affairs, and no news of such a big matter had ever been heard.

"Lu Zijing is magnanimous and forthright, but it is a pity that God is jealous of talents. I wonder who you would choose to replace him?" Guan Yu asked with a sigh.

"General Huwei Lu Ziming."

After Zhuge Jin finished speaking, he watched Guan Yu's expression closely and saw a look of disdain on Guan Yu's face when he heard Lu Meng's name.

"This man is far inferior to Zhou Gongjin and Lu Zijing. He can be regarded as embarrassing Sun Chaqi." Guan Yu shook his head.

Zhuge Jin knew that Guan Yu was arrogant, but he did not dare to get angry and refute easily. After all, Guan Yu was known to be arrogant.

"The first is to report the news of Zijing's death, and the second is to have a happy event for the prince." Zhuge Jin forced a smile.

"What a happy event?"

Guan Yu frowned, his face full of confusion.

Zhuge Jin smiled and said: "I heard that your beloved daughter is nine years old this year, and my lord's legitimate son is about the same age as her. The Sun and Liu families are already allies against Cao Cao, and your Jingzhou and Jiangdong are close neighbors. I will be the matchmaker."

The two families have a good relationship between the Qin and Jin Dynasties. In the past, Duke Xuande married the wife of the Sun family, and later the daughter of a monarch married the heir apparent of the Sun family. If this marriage came true, wouldn't it be a beautiful story for the ages?"

"Is Ziyu too impatient? The children are still too young." Guan Yu neither agreed nor refused, because he instinctively felt that Sun Quan's proposal for marriage had bad intentions.

"Both parties only need to decide on their birth names. Children grow up very quickly. Look how tall Mr. Guan is." Zhuge Jin pointed at Lan Ji with a smile on his face. He mistakenly thought Lan Ji was Guan Xing.

In addition to being excellent in martial arts, Guan Yu was also very experienced in politics. If he thought about it carefully, he would understand Sun Quan's intentions. He wanted to use the relationship between his children to drive a wedge between himself and his eldest brother? That is simply a fantasy.

"Ziyu, you have recognized the wrong person. This is not my son Guan Xing, but Lan Ziyu's young master." Guan Yu's face was as serious as water and he shook his head gently.

Zhuge Jin was very surprised after hearing this. He heard that Lan Tian's eldest son, Lan Yuan, was only twelve years old. How could he be so tall now? Aren't all Jiaozhou people short in stature? Why did this child grow so exaggeratedly?

Zhuge Jin took another closer look and found that Lan Tian's son was very talented and would definitely not be a talent in the pool in the future, so he had a very favorable impression of Lan Ji.

"What about the marriage between the two families?" Zhuge Jin continued to ask.

Guan Yu didn't want to give Sun Quan a chance to take advantage of him, so he waved his hand and said: "It's not a coincidence that Ziyu came. My daughter Yinping has been promised to someone else, so my daughter cannot marry Quan Zi..."

As soon as Guan Yu finished speaking, Guan Ping and Lan Ji looked at each other. They both wondered when this happened? Guan Yinping was only so small.

"Aren't you joking with me? Which young master is worthy of the general's daughter? Probably not as good as my lord's eldest son, right?" Because Guan Yu's logic was not rigorous, Zhuge Jin felt that the other party was perfunctory, so he wanted to break the casserole.

Ask to the end.

Guan Yu stroked his beard and said slowly: "Guan thinks that the man is talented and the woman is beautiful. He is the second son of Jiaozhou Mu Lan Ziyu."

Lan Ji and Guan Ping's eyes widened at the same time, wondering if he was joking and perfunctory, right?

"Uh... I heard that Second Young Master Lan is only ten years old. How can I tell what he is like now? It stands to reason that General Lan will be granted a title of marquis in the future, but Lan Ji may not be able to get the title. Why?

It's not as good as my heir apparent, right? You might as well consider it more," Zhuge Jin continued to fight.

"Hahaha, I've decided that Lan Ji is my son-in-law, and your master can't even hire him with Jiang Shan." Guan Yu sneered.

Seeing that Guan Yu was so determined, Zhuge Jin thought that Sun Deng's marriage to Guan Yinping would not work. He thought for a moment and saw the immature Lan Ji. Suddenly, hope was ignited in his heart, and he seemed to recruit the young man in front of him to the Sun family as his son-in-law.

Not bad either.

Originally, Zhuge Jin should have said goodbye to Guan Yu, but he thought of Guan Yu's arrogance just now and thought of a plan to regain some dignity.

"It's a pity that my lord can't become a son and daughter with the king. Jin said goodbye and set off south to Jiaozhou. General Lan Ziyu should agree to the marriage, right?"

Zhuge Jin deliberately said this in front of Guan Yu. In addition to responding to the cold reception just now, he also intended to indirectly instigate the relationship between Guan Yu and Lan Tian.

Guan Yu is now on the same level as Lan Tian, ​​so he cannot make the decision for Lan Tian. Regardless of whether Lan Tian finally agrees or not, Guan Yu will definitely report the situation to Chengdu out of loyalty to Liu Bei. At that time, the gap between Guan Yu, Liu Bei, and Lan Tian will arise.

.

Zhuge Jin thought of this and felt that he was too smart. This was a plan to kill two birds with one stone. After being shrouded in Zhuge Liang's halo for a long time, he could finally feel proud for a while.

"Tzuyu wants to propose marriage to Ziyu?" Guan Yu had such a serious face with an exaggerated expression. He thought to himself that Jiangdong doesn't have women or something, even his newborn daughter?

"What? Can't it?" Zhuge Jin looked slightly concerned.

"Ziyu's daughter was only born last year. Could it be that Ziyu is too eager for quick success?"

"Hahaha, General Guan, you have misunderstood. I am not asking for the prince's marriage to General Lan's daughter. In fact, the lord's descendant Lu Ban is cute and well-behaved. I think he will marry General Lan's son. You can't make the decision for General Lan, right?"

Jin pointed at Lan Ji and smiled.

Zhuge Jin amused Guan Yu, "Hahaha, Ziyu, don't be so talkative. I can really make the decision for Ziyu on this matter."

"General Guan is too overbearing. Aren't you afraid that General Lan will find out about his displeasure?" Zhuge Jin frowned.

"Didn't Guan just say that my daughter Yinping is going to marry the second young master of the Lan family, and I'm talking about Lan Zhongling." Guan Yu pointed at Lan Ji and explained.

Zhuge Jin was stunned. He pointed at Lan Ji and asked hesitantly: "He...he is the second son of the Lan family? Isn't he only ten years old?"

"Zhong Ling, tell me." Guan Yu turned around and ordered.

Lan Ji bowed and clasped his fists: "Young Lan Ji has met Mr. Ziyu. I am indeed only ten years old this year."
