Chapter 319 Liu Yu Proclaims Emperor (3)

After seeing Sun Shangxiang, the envoy of the Eastern Wu said to Sun Shangxiang: "Madam, the country is too critical to be ill. I want to call you to take the prince and the princess out of the way back to meet for the last time!"

When Sun Shangxiang heard this, he did not doubt that he was there and immediately said anxiously: "What, my mother is critically ill!"

"I will tell my husband now and then go back to Dongwu with you." After Sun Shangxiang said that, he was about to get up.

The envoy of the Eastern Wu Dynasty could not ask Sun Shangxiang to inform King Liu Yu of Qin, and quickly stopped him and said, "Madam, no!"

Sun Shangxiang frowned and said inexplicably, "What's wrong?"

The envoy of the Eastern Wu explained: "The King of Qin wants to unify the world and want to destroy the Eastern Wu. At this time, the two countries are no longer intimate in-law alliances. If the wife informed the King of Qin about this and wanted to return to the Eastern Wu, how could the King of Qin allow it, let alone the wife would take the Prince of Qin and the Princess with her."

Sun Shangxiang felt extremely painful. Although she was straightforward and didn't like to think too much, she was not stupid. Since Liu Yu returned from the southern expedition to destroy Chu, only the Eastern Wu was not destroyed in the world, and her husband Liu Yu's next step would be to destroy Wu and unify the whole world.

She also went to express her mercy and hoped that her husband would not use troops to the Eastern Wu. She would definitely write to the Eastern Wu, asking her brother Sun Quan to bow down and submit to her, just to retain Jiangdong as a fief and become a vassal state.

Of course, Liu Yu could not agree to such a thing. If the Eastern Wu did not destroy and retain its vassal states, even if Sun Quan surrendered, how could he talk about unification? Moreover, the vassal states were a long-term problem and he would never allow it to exist.

Sun Shangxiang was extremely disappointed if she failed to plead.

In fact, from one day to now, Sun Shangxiang has been angry with Liu Yu.

At this moment, the envoy of the Eastern Wu asked not to say goodbye. Sun Shangxiang, who was still angry, was quite moved, but she said worriedly: "If you leave without saying goodbye, there are many obstacles along the way, and it is difficult to reach the Eastern Wu."

Chang'an is thousands of miles away from Jianye, and there are dozens of counties and counties alone. Without Liu Yu's documents, there will definitely be many obstacles along the way.

The envoy of the Eastern Wu laughed and said, "As long as the wife is willing to return to the Eastern Wu, there is a way. The King of Wu has sent 300 soldiers to pretend to be a caravan, all waiting outside Chang'an. As long as the wife and the prince and the daughter leave the city, they can sneak back to the Eastern Wu all the way."

Seeing that Sun Shangxiang did not make a decision immediately, the envoy urged: "Madam, when I came, Guotai's condition was getting worse. If I delayed, I am afraid that Guotai would not see his wife and grandson for the last time and would not be able to rest in peace!"

After hearing this, how could Sun Shangxiang not panic?

Immediately, I didn't care much, so I took my son and daughter out of Chang'an City, and then took the carriage prepared by the Eastern Wu people in the suburbs. After I was about to leave Tongguan, I took the Yellow River waterway, went straight to the coast, and then went south to the Eastern Wu with the coast.

This route was decided after Sun Quan and Lu Xun's discussion. They expected that even if King Liu Yu of Qin found out, he would have sent someone to chase him, but they would have thought that Sun Shangxiang would take this route.

However, Sun Quan and Lu Xun obviously underestimated Liu Yu.

The information of the Qingyiwei guards under Man Chong has developed so strongly. After seeing the envoy of the Eastern Wu, Sun Shangxiang left without saying goodbye with the prince and daughter. As soon as he left the Qin Palace, someone told Liu Yu about the news.

Long before Sun Shangxiang left Chang'an City, Liu Yu could stop him, but Liu Yu wanted to catch all the people sent by Sun Quan to pick him up, so he allowed Sun Shangxiang to leave the city.

Just now, Sun Shangxiang had just arrived in the suburbs to meet with the people of the Eastern Wu. He was surrounded by Liu Yu and two thousand iron cavalry less than two miles away.

"King of Qin!" The envoy of the Eastern Wu was shocked.

Sun Shangxiang also lifted the curtain and saw her sitting in the carriage with her two children.

"Husband, husband..." Seeing Liu Yu's scene, Sun Shangxiang's face turned pale.

Liu Yu asked with a cold face: "Where is Shangxiang going with the child? Why don't you tell Gu Zhi?"

Liu Yu was extremely annoyed. He would ascend the throne to the emperor in a few days, but Sun Shangxiang took his son and daughter to Dongwu at this time. What was he going to do?

Sun Shangxiang was a little embarrassed, but still said seriously: "My mother is critically ill. She summoned me to take the child back to see her. She did not tell her husband, but was afraid that she would not allow her husband!"

Liu Yu's face was not good-looking, but Sun Shangxiang was his second wife after all. After all, he had been with him for nearly ten years, and had a son and a daughter for him. They had a great relationship with each other. He didn't want to scold Sun Shangxiang. He only said with a stern face: "Mother and daughter are close relatives of human relationships. If the mother-in-law is really critically ill, I would not refuse Shangxiang to see her. However, Gu has his own information. The country is healthy and there is no critical illness at all. This is just that your brother Sun Quan made up a lie and led Shangxiang to Dongwu with a pair of children with Gu to be hostage. He was forced to Gu'er. Shangxiang was not trustworthy and quickly returned to the palace!"

Sun Shangxiang was shocked when he heard this and looked at the envoy of the Eastern Wu.

Although the envoy of the Eastern Wu was also shocked, he immediately reacted and met Sun Shangxiang's inquiring gaze. He retorted angrily: "The King of Qin does not want his wife to return to the Eastern Wu, so he deceived his wife. Please do not believe it. When the wife was in the Eastern Wu, both the Guo Tai and the King of Wu loved her. Could it be that the wife did not want to return to the Eastern Wu to meet the Guo Tai for the last time?"

Regarding his mother's life and death, Sun Shangxiang dared not disbelief, so he said to Liu Yu: "Husband, please allow me to return to Dongwu."

Sun Shangxiang's distrust made Liu Yu angrily rebuke: "You are confused. You can't let the left and right Gu take your child to Dongwu, why should you lie to you? Go back to the palace immediately. With you here, Gu and Sun will always be in-laws. Even if you destroy Jiangdong in the future, you will never hurt your brother and mother's lives!"

After saying that, Liu Yu did not wait for Sun Shangxiang to respond, and was even more lazy to talk nonsense with these Eastern Wu spies, and waved his hand to order a killing!

"Swish! Swish!" The crossbow shot out the arrow, and first killed the Eastern Wu spies around Sun Shangxiang's carriage.

At the same time, Liu Yu also rushed to kill himself.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, more than 200 people from the Eastern Wu gathered here were killed and more than 60 prisoners.

As for the captured people, Liu Yu did not take them back to Chang'an City, nor did he kill them on the spot, but let them go back to Jiangdong. In addition to shocking Sun Quan, his move also brought Sun Shangxiang the promise he said to Sun Shangxiang, "The Sun family of the Eastern Wu will be in-laws after all, and even if Jiangdong is defeated in the future, they will never hurt the lives of Sun Quan, Wu Guotai and others."

Indeed, Liu Yu took the opportunity to give Sun Quan a hope. In order not to let Sun Quan stand to the end, it would be easier to force Sun Quan to surrender in the future, and to take down the Eastern Wu at the lowest cost and unify the world.

After letting the prisoners go and leaving a team of people to deal with the bodies present, Liu Yu took Sun Shangxiang back to Chang'an City with a cold face.

In view of Sun Shangxiang's farewell this time, which almost caused him great trouble, Liu Yu ordered Sun Shangxiang to be banned in the palace and to deal with it after he ascended the throne and became emperor.

Five days later.

In the palace, hundreds of civil and military officials gathered together.

Liu Yu was wearing a dragon robe, and Emperor Liu Xie held the jade seal in Liu Yu's hands.

Liu Yu took over the jade seal and officially called himself emperor. The country's name was still "Han", and the reign was changed to "Shenwu", and the following year was the first year of Shenwu!

Hundreds of civil and military officials, including Liu Xie, who had abdicated the throne, all bowed to Liu Yu.
