After Cao Cao had seized Jingzhou, Sun Quan in Jiangdong was worried that Cao Cao would attack his land. He sent Lu Su to Jiangxiao to look up Liu Bei and discuss joining forces to fight Cao Cao.
At the same time, Zhuge Liang was also suggesting an alliance to resist Cao Cao's attack. He went to Jiangdong together with Lu Su to discuss their plans.
When Sun Quan received Cao Cao's letter to meet at Jiangxia to discuss wiping out Liu Bei, Sun Quan was at a loss as there was no consensus among his ministers.
The following day, Zhuge Liang had an intense debate with the scholarly ministers who proposed submission to Cao Cao. He skillfully refuted the ministers claims one by one, and left.
