Chapter 693: Taking pleasure in this and daring to be the pioneer
Seeing Zhou Qian almost collapsed, Jiang Ji secretly worried for himself.
Fortunately, when he was captured, he did not put on any airs in front of Mi Yang, otherwise he might have had to experience the torture that Zhou Qian suffered today.
Just when Jiang Ji was secretly feeling lucky, he saw Mi Yang waving at him.
After seeing Mi Yang's actions, Jiang Ji did not dare to delay at all. He hurried to Mi Yang's side.
When Mi Yang saw Jiang Ji standing beside him, he leaned forward slightly and said to Zhou Cang:
“What I want is very simple.
I want the world to be unified, and I also want Ziyu to go down in history."
“If Ziyu can agree to my request, he will be my internal supporter after returning to Jiangdong.
I can guarantee that what will be presented to the world will only be the first confession you have just seen.
Of course, Ziyu would not worry too much. I know Ziyu's current importance in Jiangdong, so I would not let Ziyu do something beyond his ability.
I can also guarantee that most of the things I ask Ziyu to do in the future will be things that go with the flow.
how is it? "
Is Mi Yang's guarantee effective?
Of course there is.
Just as Zhou Qian thought just now, Mi Yang was the one who inherited Liu Bei's hopes.
Although the four words "Liu Bei's last hope" will bring a lot of constraints to Mi Yang, they will also bring him many hidden benefits.
Will people believe that Liu Bei went back on his word?
But it was precisely because Zhou Qian had no doubt about Mi Yang's words that he found it even more incredible.
It's like a skilled hunter who takes great pains to lay an impenetrable net, but when it's time to draw the net in, all he gets is something that seems insignificant.
The previous brilliance and the current restraint form a sharp contrast.
This sharp contrast made Zhou Qian's thoughts a mess.
Seeing that Zhou Qian was slow to respond, Mi Yang couldn't help but snort.
Mi Yang's hum sounded like thunder to Zhou Qian's ears.
The thunder made Zhou Qian raise his head and look at the man who was looking down at him.
He put his hands behind his back, looked down at the opponent, and had an expression that showed he was sure of victory.
At this moment Zhou Qian suddenly came to his senses.
What are you still hesitating about?
What right do I have to hesitate?
If he did not agree to Mi Yang's words, it would not be long before the confession that would destroy his family would reach Sun Quan's hands.
In fact, the moment I stepped into the Sima Mansion today, I had already lost the power to say no.
Thinking of this, Zhou Qian laughed at himself.
With a self-deprecating laugh, Zhou Qian tried to support himself and stand up.
But perhaps his emotions had not yet calmed down, and Zhou Qian just stood up a little before he fell back to the ground.
Zhou Qian's reaction was enough to show how much of a blow Mi Yang's words had just dealt to him.
When Mi Yang saw Zhou Qian's helplessness, he, who was always good at caring for others, quickly looked at Jiang Ji standing aside.
The alert Jiang Ji saw Mi Yang's eyes and understood Mi Yang's intention after a little thought.
Jiang Ji, who understood Mi Yang's intention, quickly bent down, held Zhou Qian's hand, and helped him up from the ground.
Mi Yang knew that Zhou Qian had no choice but to agree to his request, so after Zhou Qian was helped up, he smiled and said to him:
"Zi Tong is currently serving as the Commandant of Siwen under my command, in charge of all intelligence matters for me.
When you return to Jiangdong in the future, if I have any orders or you have any reports, they will all be passed through Zitong."
Mi Yang's words entered Zhou Qian's ears without missing a word.
When Zhou Cang saw that Mi Yang was still able to act harmless at this moment, he felt so sad that he couldn't help but say:
"Is Da Sima enjoying this?"
Zhou Qian’s words made Mi Yang a little confused.
"what?"
“The world is like a chessboard, and all living beings are like chess pieces.
Is Da Sima enjoying the pleasure of playing chess?"
Zhou Qian’s words left Mi Yang silent for a moment.
But soon, Mi Yang gave his answer:
"So what?"
So what?
So domineering!
It seemed that he didn't expect Mi Yang to answer so straightforwardly and frankly. Zhou Qian was a little overwhelmed.
But soon, Zhou Qian put away the confusion and fear on his face, and bowed deeply to Mi Yang.
He is a chess piece, Jiang Ji is a chess piece, and I think many people among the vast number of living beings are also chess pieces in Mi Yang's hands.
And when he was in Jiangdong, wasn't he a pawn in Sun Quan's hands?
The chess game called the world is so big that it can encompass all living beings.
But the chess game known as the world is also very small, so small that there are only three or five people playing the chess.
Since you cannot escape the fate of being a chess piece, why not choose the side that is most beneficial to you?
"If we are to settle in Jiangdong, I will be the vanguard!"
Finally, Zhou Qiang clearly said what Mi Yang wanted to say.
After hearing these words, Mi Yang raised his head and laughed with his hands behind his back.
"good!"
"I was right about you."
After seeing Zhou Qiang off, Jiang Ji returned to Mi Yang.
Seeing Jiang Ji coming back, Mi Yang put down the book in his hand and asked him:
"When Zhou Qian left, was there any strange expression on his face?"
Facing Mi Yang's question, Jiang Ji replied respectfully:
“No.
Although Zhang Wen had doubts, Zhou Cang simply evaded them with lies.
I have observed that Zhang Wen has not shown any suspicion. "
Mi Yang nodded slightly after hearing Jiang Ji's answer.
After nodding, Mi Yang started reading the book in his hand again.
It seemed as if Mi Yang never worried about anything else.
Although Mi Yang was not worried, as Mi Yang's adviser, Jiang Ji felt that he still needed to remind Mi Yang of some things.
"I don't understand why the Grand Marshal chose Zhou Cang today and ignored Zhang Wen?
I also don't understand why the Grand Marshal didn't capture Zhou Cang and Zhang Wen at once?"
After Jiang Ji expressed his confusion, he lowered his head and waited for Mi Yang's answer.
Mi Yang was indeed attracted by Jiang Ji's confusion.
Mi Yang knew that Jiang Ji said on the surface that he was confused, but in fact he was reminding himself that Zhang Wen's existence might be a variable.
And has Mi Yang never thought about this?
Mi Yang slowly put down the book in his hand and said to Jiang Ji:
"Zhang Wen is a gentleman who is inflexible, while Zhou Ziyu is a person who pursues profit."
"What happened today can only be imposed on Zhou Qian."
The first thing Mi Yang said was his judgment on Zhang Wen and Zhou Qian.
This judgment is not groundless, but was obtained by Mi Yang from historical books in later generations.
In history, Zhang Wen was loved by Zhang Zhao for his upright character, but it was also because of this that he offended Sun Quan.
Zhang Wen has a strong character but sometimes he is a little bit stupid.
Zhang Wen knew that Sun Quan was lenient on the outside but cautious on the inside, especially in his later years. However, after completing his mission and returning to Jiangdong, he frequently praised Zhuge Liang's policies.
Zhang Wen is capable of doing such a thing. Let’s not talk about whether he will surrender today. Even if he surrenders, will Mi Yang dare to use him?
But Zhou Qian and Zhang Wen are completely different people.
In history, Zhou Cang was able to cut off his hair to earn Cao Xiu's favor. On the one hand, this shows that he valued interests more than filial piety. On the other hand, it also shows that he had a strong ability to adapt.
Such people can be utilized and can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
As for why Mi Yang let Zhang Wen go, there was another consideration.
"Zhang Wen's reputation in Jiangdong is comparable to Zhang Zhao's, and his appeal is even more incomparable to Zhou Cang's."
"If you were Zhou Cang, do you think you would believe that Zhang Wen had no doubts about what happened today?
If you were Zhou Qian, would you put the safety of yourself and your family on the shoulders of outsiders?"
"Of course not."
Jiang Ji answered with decisiveness.
After Mi Yang's enlightenment, Jiang Ji suddenly realized.
Since that won't happen, it is foreseeable what Zhou Qian will do after returning to Jiangdong.
A gentleman can never defeat a villain.
Once he did those things, on the one hand it might cause civil unrest in Jiangdong, and on the other hand he would inadvertently cut off his own retreat.
Although they are a prominent family in Jiangdong, they have lost the support of the people in Jiangdong.
In this situation, in order to seek the safety and development of his family, how could Zhou Qian have any second thoughts about Mi Yang!
