Going down the river, Sun Yue hugged his beautiful wife and concubine, sat and watched the beautiful scenery on the shore of West Lake, and the green mountains and buildings outside the mountains.

It is said that Sun Yue can definitely be called the four words "Southern and North Battle" in the past decade, but fighting the Northern Han Dynasty was a bitter and cold place, the Later Han Dynasty was a place of heat, fever, and the Later Shu Road was difficult to reach the blue sky.

Finally, the battlefield has been moved to Jiangnan. No matter how the battle is fought, at least the beautiful climate is very enjoyable. In addition, Sun Yue is here to be a salted fish this time, which is really warm and intoxicating. He has no idea about fighting. He is thinking in his mind, should he go to West Lake first tomorrow, or will he take his wife to Qiandao Lake?

Until the ship was docked, King Qian Chu of Wuyue personally brought all civil and military officials to greet him. Only then did he remember that he was carrying official duties, which seemed to be a major national event.

After getting off the boat, Qian Chu politely led all civil and military officials to pay tribute to Sun Yue. Sun Yue hurriedly returned the gift to Qian Chu, but it was a long time of busy work.

"I don't think it was Mr. Sun who came to supervise the army in person. I, the whole country of Wu and Yue, are so flattered. Mr. Sun has his own orders and follows them all."

"Master Qian, you're ruining me. How dare you call me a husband in front of you? This time I'm just here to visit, and I don't dare to point fingers at you. However, if there are any beautiful scenery and food in Hangzhou City, please introduce it to you, hahahaha."

"Mr. Sun is joking. Come on, let's not stand on the dock. Go to the palace to have a banquet quickly, please."

"Please."

"Please please, Mr. Sun."

"No, please, lord."

As he said that, Qian Chu and Sun Yue pushed and shoved.

At this time, a rather harsh voice beside him said, "The king of the country is the lord of a country, how can there be a reason to let others take the lead? If Mr. Sun doesn't mind, it's better to follow me."

Sun Yue turned his head curiously and saw the burly old man with black hair behind Qian Chu, staring at Sun Yue without fear.

Looking behind this person, it seems that most of the officials, standing behind this person, seemed to look directly at themselves without fear.

It seems that all officials in Wu and Yue do not welcome them.

Qian Chu scolded, "Shen Xiang stopped, since Mr. Sun has come to Wu Yue, it means the Song Dynasty of the Supreme Kingdom. As a minister of the Song Dynasty, I should naturally let the envoy go first. Mr. Sun, please."

Sun Yue looked at the man with a smile for a long time. Shen Xiang said, it should be Shen Huzi. The famous leader of the anti-Song faction did not say anything. Instead, he laughed and said to Qian Chu: "The king of the country is not just the king of Wu and Yue, you are also the Grand Marshal of the Song Dynasty. I am a deputy envoy of the Privy Councilor, how dare I walk in front of the Grand Marshal of the Army? Please ask first, lord."

"No, no, no, please, Mr. Sun first."

"Please ask first."

...

After another quarter of an hour, the two of them laughed and walked shoulder to shoulder. Wu Yue's civil and military officials followed behind, but Shen Huzi looked at Sun Yue with a bad look, like a knife, but Sun Yue was unaware of it.

What is Wu Yue’s specialty? It’s no big deal.

Speaking of which, just in terms of the country's destiny, the Wu and Yue Kingdom was definitely the longest-winning one of the entire Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Even the Qian Liu, the Taizu of Wu and Yue, was not the world that was conquered, but was conferred by Zhu Wen, the Taizu of Later Liang.

Then the five dynasties of Liang, Tang, Jin, Han and Zhou dynasties passed in the Central Plains, and the people still had their surname Qian.

The reason for this is of course not because of the stability and strong domestic strength of Wu and Yue. This is due to the national policy of Wu and Yue: descendants are good at serving China, and do not use the ritual of abolishing the Grand Master for different surnames.

What does it mean? That is to say, descendants, you must do your best to serve the upper country in the Central Plains. No matter whether they change the emperor or not, how many emperors they change, they will be the surname of whatever they like. Anyway, your position is your younger brother, and you will firmly support whoever is the best.

The Qian family always put themselves in their position as a younger brother, always respectful, and not to mention becoming emperor, if they were not enthroned by the Northern Central Plains, they would never be able to even be praised. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the Qian family's later ending was really good. I heard that it was prosperous until the 21st century.

In the eyes of the upper country of Central Plains, Wu Yue did have an irreplaceable role, that is, to restrain the Southern Tang. The Qian family of Wu Yue always remembered their mission. No matter how the world changes, they only knew one thing: to fight the Southern Tang. If you can beat the Southern Tang, you will fight the Southern Tang even if you can’t beat the enemy. If you are hungry, you will fight the Southern Tang even if you have nothing to do.

The Southern Tang at that time was not the current Southern Tang. At least before Chai Rong, the national strength of the Southern Tang was not inferior to that of the upper Central Plains. Even now, in terms of economic strength, they are actually not much weaker than that of the Song Dynasty. Can such Wu Yue not be liked by the upper Central Plains?

But now, the situation of Wu Yue Kingdom is actually very subtle.

Because anyone with long eyes can tell that the Song Dynasty's unification has become a thing of the past. The Central Plains powers needed Wu and Yue because of the Southern Tang, but what after the Southern Tang was destroyed? Could it be that Zhao Kuangyin destroyed Later Shu, Southern Han, and Southern Tang, might have left Wu and Yue alone and let them control the country?

Just kidding, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't even stand his own military governor.

So from some unknown time, there was a sudden voice in Wu Yue's court that united the Tang Dynasty to resist the Song Dynasty, and this political power became increasingly powerful. Until now, most of the court officials were actually anti-Song factions, but they gradually became silent after joining the Song faction.

Of course, this is easy to understand. For example, Shen Huzi, who is now the prime minister in Wu Yue, can be said to be less than one person, but if he surrenders to the Song Dynasty, what official can he become? I guess he must be at least two or three levels younger than Sun Yue. Who can stand it?

Besides, those who are willing to vote for Song, dare you make a sound? Apart from Qian Chu himself, who says that anyone is treason? Do you know what Qian Chu thinks in his heart? There are so many officials, can you shout first? He is powerful and doesn’t spend money. If you really fight, it’s not the turn of those who are officials to go to the battlefield. At worst, the great Song Dynasty soldiers are coming to Hangzhou. Why don’t I continue to be an official as soon as I change my official uniform?

For various reasons, Wu Yue’s court is very strange now. Qian Chu himself joined the Song sect, and the others are all anti-Song sects.

Sun Yue was sent to Hangzhou and Zhou at such a turbulent time, so this position is actually quite important. It is really not possible for anyone to come. What if there is a lunatic in the Wu Yue court who wants to learn Ban Chao and kill Sun Yue directly?

More importantly, the destruction of the Southern Tang Dynasty has never been a military issue, but a political issue. First of all, it is difficult to be famous for the army. I lie on the side of the bed to sleep soundly. This is indeed domineering, but if I weren't really able to find a decent reason, would Zhao Kuangyin say such words similar to rogues?

If Wu Yue and Southern Tang can be confronted first and the Song Dynasty sends troops to "mediate", it would be perfect.

If Wu Yue could also surrender after destroying the Southern Tang Dynasty, it would be even more perfect.

After all, even if you can't find any decent reason to beat Nan Tang, Wu Yue? I guess Zhao Kuangyin couldn't even take action.

And this is Sun Yue’s real task, which is capable of fighting, understanding politics, and having a sense of prowess. There are actually not many such people who are both civil and military in the Song Dynasty, so from this perspective, it cannot be said that they are useless.
