Chapter 16 The consequences are very serious
While Zhuge Jin arrived in Jianye, Xu Zhu also rushed back to Fuchun. He had a secret mission. As soon as he returned home, he rushed to visit his grandmother Sun. After sending a piece of Xuanhu Qiu and several old ginseng and a large number of Liaodong specialties, Xu Zhuo put Sun Shao's handwritten letter in front of Sun.
As a woman of the Sun family, Aunt Sun is not very shrewd. In those years, Xu Xun's father, Xu Kun, assisted Sun Ce in conquering Zhang Ying, who was a sharp mouth. Because there were few boats, Xu Kun planned to wait and find more boats to cross the water. At that time, Aunt Sun was in the army and said to Xu Kun, "What kind of boat to wait for at this time?" Cross the river immediately before the enemy arrived. The boat was not enough, just use reeds. Xu Kun listened to her words and crossed the river to defeat Zhang Ying as soon as possible. Shortly after the victory, Zhang Ying's reinforcements arrived. Seeing that Xu Kun had taken advantage of the opportunity, he had to return in no way.
Aunt Sun's knowledge can be seen from this.
"What does he want to do?" Aunt Sun looked at Xu Zhu unhappily, "Do you also take such a task?"
"Mother, here's the thing." Seeing that she was unhappy, Xu Zhu quickly explained the matter. Sun Shao was very dissatisfied with Sun Quan's hostage. Although he also detained Sun Deng, he just hoped that Sun Quan could let go and not tear his face. Unexpectedly, Sun Quan was hard-hearted. After Sun Deng landed on the battlefield, he was very uncomfortable. Sun Shao was also very nervous, afraid that in case of a mistake. Taking advantage of the victory this time, he hopes to exchange 2,000 horses for the bridge and his son. In order to ensure everything, Sun Shao hopes that his aunt can come forward to give Sun Quan a face. Let's talk about it and solve this matter. Everyone has the blood of the Sun family. It is natural to work together. Honesty is the right reason. It is uncomfortable to take hostages, and this is not humane.
Aunt Sun listened and sighed. She saw sincerity from Sun Shao's behavior. What a gift 2,000 war horses are for Jiangdong, who is short of horses. It is unreasonable for Sun Quan to take Sun Shao hostage. Sun Shao can still restrain himself at this time and ask Sun Quan in a low voice. With his hot temper, he is also full of benevolence and righteousness. In addition, she also felt sorry for Sun Deng. She was worried that his granddaughter, Mrs. Xu, was completely hopeless. After thinking about it over and over again, she decided to help Sun Shao. She wrote a letter to Sun Quan, saying that she wanted to see Sun Shao's son and asked Sun Quan to open his kindness and allow the bridge and the child to come to Fuchun.
Of course, this is a step. If Sun Quan knows it, send people here and accept 2,000 horses, they will be happy, and this matter will be over.
However, unexpectedly, this letter went into the sea like a mud cow, and there was no more news.
Aunt Sun couldn't calm down. She was extremely disappointed with Sun Quan. The Xu family made great sacrifices for the Sun family. Her son Xu Kun fought with Sun Ce from a young age. He made great achievements and was awarded the title of Marquis of Guangde. Unfortunately, he died in the battle against Huang Zu. Sun Quan succeeded to the throne and only appointed Xu Jiao as a marquis, but did not grant troops. This was the first place that made Aunt Sun unhappy. Mrs. Xu married Sun Quan and was very favored at first. Later, Sun Quan fell in love and ignored Mrs. Xu. This was the second unhappy place for Aunt Sun. Now Sun Quan doesn't give her face and doesn't even have a reaction. This is the third time that Grandma Sun is unhappy. Compared with Sun Shao's gifts to the Xu family, Aunt Sun was angry.
Sun Shao's matter of exchanging 2,000 war horses for hostages spread in Vietnam at the fastest speed, and then radiated to the neighboring Wu County and Danyang County. In the first month of the lunar year, everyone rushed to pay New Year's greetings to each other. This news became the hottest topic, and Sun Quan became the most ignorant. The evil people, and Sun Shao has become the most aggrieved sufferer, and the tendency of public opinion is very obvious. It is strange that Gu Lu, Zhu and Zhang, who are related to Sun Shao, coincidentally expressed their silence. They and even Du Men Xie Ke resolutely did not participate in the discussion of similar topics.
Sun Quan was furious, and the angry roar could even be heard on the bridge next door.
Mrs. Bu was ordered to go through the government to appease the bridge. With a weak surname, she did not dare to disobey Sun Quan's orders, but in fact, she was also uncomfortable. Recently, Mrs. Wang has been very favored, and there is a faint tendency to suppress her. Dahu cleaned up Sunlv because he couldn't like Sunlv's proud appearance. As a result, Sunlv did not dare to speak, but was sued by Mrs. Wang. Sun Quan, who had never been embarrassed by the big tiger, called her over and scolded her, saying that she was not strict. It's a pity. Who is used to the surname of Big Tiger? Mrs. Bu has words of suffering, and she is not used to confiding in others. She can only keep her own stomach of bitterness.
A Yu was wearing new clothes and was playing with Qiaoyue in the yard. As soon as he saw the big tiger and the little tiger, he opened his two small muddy hands and rushed up. His mouth kept cooing. The big tiger turned around and ran away in fear. A Yu followed him fiercely. He was only one and a half years old and now walking steadily.
Looking at the happy smiles of the children in the yard, the brocade bridge showed a gratifying smile. Mrs. Bu looked at it with a smile for a moment, and then said, "There are some rumors in the city recently. Did you hear it?"
"What rumor?" The bridge turned its head and looked at Mrs. Bu quietly. There was still a quiet smile on her jade-like face.
"That's... I'm going to exchange the war horse for your business." Mrs. Bu blushed a little by the bridge and gave way to her eyes with a guilty heart, "These..."
"Aren't these all facts?" The bridge interrupted Mrs. Bu's words, "I heard that my aunt has written a letter, but is there such a thing?"
Mrs. Bu is speechless. The bridge even knows this. What else is there to say?
"Do you have the heart to let Zi Gao fight outside?" The bridge turned its head and no longer looked at Mrs. Bu. "He is only fourteen years old after the Spring Festival, and he has been a motherless child since he was a child. What will it feel like? Madam, would you like to watch Mrs. Wang become the empress dowager of the State of Wu?
Mrs. Bu frowned and had a feeling of heartache. The words of the bridge suddenly hit her heart knot. Yes, Sun Quan still spoils her now. Although Mrs. Wang is also favored, with her surname, it has not posed a threat to her actual surname at present. However, if Sun Xie becomes the prince of the State of Wu, the matter will be different. To establish a crown prince, she must stand up, and she has no son, which is fatal. If she wants to stand up, she still has a chance. If she thinks about it, she can only watch Mrs. Wang come to the top and become the queen of the State of Wu. Sun Quan is 40 years old, and many men in the Sun family are short-lived. Who knows how many years or ten years he can live? Twenty years? As soon as Sun Xie succeeded to the throne, Mrs. Wang was the Empress Dowager. At that time, what good result would she have?
This is why the bridge said that Mrs. Wang became the empress dowager of the State of Wu, not the queen.
Mrs. Bu was so sad that she couldn't speak. She hated herself. Why didn't she even have a son for so many years? If she had a son, how could she fall to this point?
"Zigao is a poor child. If you can treat him better, he will appreciate you." The bridge said lightly, "As for me, it doesn't matter whether it's rumors or not. You have to deceive yourself and treat these as rumors. I can't help it. However, justice is in the hearts of the people, and nothing should be done. As the Lord of Jiangdong, don't you have this heart? If you really want to argue with him, it's not enough for me and me. The bridge turned his head and looked at Mrs. Bu, and said, "If you seize your mother and daughter first and ask him for territory, will he agree?"
Mrs. Bu didn't say anything, her nose was sore, and tears almost came out. The eldest son and grandchildren didn't work, not to mention their mother and daughter. It is estimated that Sun Quan would not pay attention to their life or death at all. However, on the scene, she still had to keep calm and couldn't lose her composure. She could only hold back her tears and forced a smile and said, "Madam, it's a joke. How can't it be so serious?"
The bridge curled its lips, smiled silently, and no longer spoke. The whole body was like a jade sculpture, exquisite and cold, making it inaccessible.
Sun Quan has never given a positive response. On the third day of the first lunar month, Sun Quan sent Zhang Wen to the State of Shu. On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Zhu Cai, the eldest son of Zhu Zhi, a lieutenant of Wuwei, came out of Zhen Jiangxia. More than ten related personnel were transferred, and Zhu Zhang Gu Lu's four families were the top priority. Then an invisible force spread in Jianye City, slowly suppressing these comments.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, on the Shangyuan Festival, Sun Shao held a banquet in the palace and invited the ministers to have a banquet. Mrs. Bu entertained the wives of the ministers in the harem. The bridge was invited to attend, and everything seemed very peaceful. Sun Quan was unhappy in the first month of the lunar month, and there were a lot of troubles. He couldn't help but also had some meaning of drinking to drown his sorrows. He not only drank by himself, but also forced the ministers to drink. If he didn't drink, he let Lang Zhong pour it hard, which made everyone miserable, but he laughed happily. Just as the room was drinking, Mrs. Wang stumbled in.
Sun Quan, who was already half drunk, was very unhappy. He stared at Mrs. Wang when she was about to get angry. Mrs. Wang grabbed Sun Quan's sleeve and screamed, "Your Majesty, save our son."
Sun Quan was stunned, and then he was shocked. He threw away the cup, took Mrs. Wang's arm, and said in a hurry, "What's wrong with worry?"
"The worry was robbed..." Mrs. Wang sobbed. Her legs were weak and she fainted to the ground before she finished speaking. Sun Quan was furious and immediately called the official in charge of defending the harem to ask. When he asked, he knew that when the ladies were drinking and banquets, Dahu and Xiaohu took Sun Shao's son Ayu to play in the court. Sun Kui was rejected alone and was quite lonely. He took a few bodyguards to the backyard to have a walk. As a result, he went there for a long time and did not come back. Mrs. Wang felt uneasy and sent someone to check. She found that several bodyguards had been killed in the backyard, and Sun Wei was missing.
Sun Quan took a breath of cold air, and the wine he had just drunk turned into sweat. The magnificent Wu Wangfu was actually broken in and the prince was robbed? That's okay. Sun Quan immediately asked people to call Zhou Xun, the partial general responsible for the safety of Wu Wangfu, and scolded him. Zhou Xun had just learned the news before he could report it. He was scolded by Sun Quan in front of his ministers. He was ashamed.
The Wu Palace was suddenly in a mess. The fully armed soldiers soon surrounded the Wu Wangfu, and Jianye City was also under martial law in the whole city. Just when Sun Quan stepped on the thunder, another big thing happened: A Yu was gone, and the big tigers and little tigers who played hide-and-seek with him came and found it. Looking for him, he finally found the collar that A Li was wearing in a corner, and then he knew that A Li had also been robbed.
As soon as he heard the news, the bridge fainted, and Sun Quan was furious. He ordered Jianye's defenders to go out to dig three feet of the ground and find the two children.
This Shangyuan Festival is doomed to be peaceful. Jianye City, which was originally peaceful and peaceful, was suddenly full of fully armed and cold-faced warriors. A team of people rushed into the people's homes, rummagaging through boxes and cabinets, and thoroughly searched. Among them, it is inevitable that there will be opportunities for extortion and private revenge, which makes all the ministers jump, even all ministers. The house was not spared. One was the son of the king of Wu and the other was the son of the king of Yue. No one could bear this responsibility. The people in charge of the search couldn't wait to dig up the land of all the people's homes.
In the early morning, Lu Yi, a school officer, first found the target. On a ship outside the North Gate, they found a guest room with a closed cabin door. Two soldiers came forward to search and were killed as soon as they entered the door. Lv Yi made a quick decision and asked people to surround the ship. While reporting to Sun Quan, he shouted to the people inside. The idea was that you had been surrounded. Come out and surrender quickly, or you would be killed.
The people inside were silent for a long time, and finally said that they were willing to hand over a child to make a living. In addition to being overjoyed, Lv Yi further asked for the release of two children at the same time. The people inside sneered and said, "It's polite to kill the murderer". It's already polite to release one. I'm in a hurry. I'm fighting for my life, and I won't let go of the two children.Lv Yi didn't dare to force him again. On the one hand, he asked people to surround the ship, and on the other hand, he rushed back to the palace to see Sun Quan.
Sun Quan's face was pale and he was anxiously beating back and forth in the room. The harem was in a mess. Mrs. Wang and Daqiao cried as soon as they woke up. They cried until they fainted again. When they woke up, they cried again. Mrs. Bu and Yuan Fu were afraid that they would have an accident, so they were inseparable from a group of maidservant. Sun Quan waited for the news in the front hall. He didn't know how many people he scolded and beat. Finally, he was relieved to hear that Lv Yi had news. As he asked people to report the news to the harem, he reassured the bridge and Mrs. Wang, and rushed to the river with Lu Yi.
The ship has been surrounded by sailors who have heard the news. If it hadn't been for the two children in the hands of the robbers, the ship would have been smashed to pieces. Sun Quan ordered people to shout, put down the child, and spare you a way to live.
The robbers seem to have been ready for a long time. Again, murderers, people are always killing. If you want to let them go, you can only put one. Don't think about the two. I'm here to take revenge this time. I can't go back empty-handed. Please ask Sun Quan to make a choice as soon as possible. Before the first ray of sunshine appears on the ground plane, if Sun Quan hasn't chosen it, then two one To die. Next, the robbers did not reply again. Sun Quan sent several warriors to try to raid, but they were killed on the ship without exception. The robber's martial arts skills were very skillsome. Sun Quan saw him waving a long sword with his own eyes and killed two elites in the blink of an eye.
Sun Quan was forced to a dead end. He was furious, but he had no choice. He felt that this matter was a little strange. The robbers were so familiar with the situation in his palace. He unconsciously robbed the two children. His martial arts skills were so skillful. At first, he assassinated several officials who protected Sun Xie without a sound, and now he easily killed dozens of elites. What's the hatred between him and the Sun family? Would he rather have his own surname and life than rob a child?
The last question is not important. There are too many people killed by the Sun family. It is estimated that there are not one or two people who want to seek revenge, but they don't have the courage and ability. Sun Quan sometimes wondered whether the robber would be sent by Sun Shao. He couldn't exchange horses, so he simply sent an assassin to take action. Now he uses two children to force him to make a choice and choose A Yu. His son Sun Xu died, and Sun Deng pinched it in his hands. He not only couldn't control him, but also had to suffer from him. The control of. Choosing Sun Xie is even more troublesome. Sun Shao will definitely come to revenge. It is his specialty to shout that the thief catch the thief. If there is such an opportunity, it is definitely not his style.
However, although Sun Quan is so suspicious, he has no evidence. Unless he catches the robber and gets a confession from his mouth, it is okay if there is no confession. This can be made up, but the premise is that you have to catch the robbers, so that the confession can be convincing. If the robbers are not caught, you say that he was sent by Sun Shao, who will believe it?
The sound of water droplets in the leaking pot was monotonous and rigid, like the blood in Sun Quan's heart. He bit his teeth tightly, and his lips bit out blood, but he didn't notice it at all. He hated Sun Shao. He was sure that this was Sun Shao's trick, but he couldn't say that before there was evidence, others would only say that he had planted it, but not I will agree with his speculation.
Time is like a river under a boat. Slowly passing, no one dares to say anything, waiting for Sun Quan's choice.
... "He finally chose his own son and gave up my son?" Sun Shao sneered: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill his son too?"
Zhuge Jin sweated like rain, took a look at Sun Deng, who was pale, and quickly persuaded him, "Your Highness, the king of Wu does not pity your highness's son. That's not what he chose. That's... God's will."
"God's will? Oh, my God, your mother's will. Sun Shao jumped up and shook his hand in the face: "I think he will throw five baht a hundred times, or choose his son. Do you think I'm a stupid pig? How dare you use the bullshit of God's will to blind me? Believe it or not, I will go back to the division now and fight to the death with him. It's the real God's will to let him see him.
Zhuge Jin's eyes were hit with stars by his slap in the face, and he couldn't say anything about it. At that time, he was standing beside Sun Quan. Of course, he knew the so-called divination selection. According to God's will, as Sun Shao said, it was all bullshit, but he could not admit it. If Sun Shao really wants to go back and fight with Sun Quan now, won't he become a sinner?
"Your Highness, stop your anger, Your Highness, stop your anger." Zhuge Jin repeatedly persuaded, "It was Wu Fan who calculated that Ling Lang was thrilling, so..."
"Wu Fan?" Sun Shao stopped his hand in the air and stared at Zhuge Jin: "What is Wu Fan?"
Zhuge Jin was so scared that he shivered. This pirate Yuewang was unreasonable. Your uncle and nephew were angry. Why did you do anything to me? But Sun Shao wanted to beat him, and he couldn't do anything about it. That's why Xiucai met the soldiers, and it was reasonable. When Sun Shao was puzzled, he took a breath and quickly told the rest of the story.
In the face of this dilemma, Sun Quan wanted to choose his son, but he was afraid of leaving a notoriety. Finally, Lv Yi came up with an idea and asked Wu Fan to calculate it to see what the fate of the two children was and make a decision with God's will. As a result, Wu Fan calculated that the effect was surprisingly good. Sun Wei had a disaster. Today, if he couldn't pass, he would die. A Yan also had a disaster, but there was no danger and good luck. As soon as this result came out, of course, the interesting person would not miss the opportunity. He persuaded Sun Quan to leave Sun Xie for a good reason. A Yan was shocked and turned bad luck into good luck.
"Fone to your mother." Zhuge Jin didn't finish his words. Sun Shao slapped him in the face again and said ferociously, "You think I'm two hundred and fifty. Let me tell you, Wu Fan's old man is dead. If I don't kill him, I will never stop."
Zhuge Jin was depressed. After living for most of his life, he had never been slapped in the face like this. This time, he made up for it with Sun Shao. He was ordered to come to Sun Shao to explain, and he knew that it was a troublesome job, but he thought that Sun Shao would give him some face. Who would have thought that when he heard the news, Sun Shao went crazy. He slapped him in the face and slapped him in the face, which was worse than Sun Shao at the beginning.
"Drag down and fight until you die." Sun Shao was furious.
"Your Highness, my father is just a messenger. What's the use of beating him?" Zhuge Ke couldn't help it anymore. He rushed over and stopped in front of Sun Shao and scolded angrily. Sun Shao stared: "Little vertical, do you dare to stab in front of me? Get out of here, or I'll clean it up with you.
"Your Highness, the hexagram is Wu Fanbu's, and the decision was made by the King of Wu. What does it have to do with my father? Why does Your Highness have to bully the weak and be afraid of the strong? Zhuge Ke clenched his neck, didn't give in an inch, and clenched his fist. When Sun Shao did it again, he wanted to fight with Sun Shao.
"This has nothing to do with General Zuo." Guan Feng, with red eyes, came out from behind and knelt down in front of Sun Shao: "Husband, since he can't protect A Li's safety, please allow me to kill Sun Deng and avenge my A Li."
Zhuge Jin was shocked and quickly got up from the ground and protected in front of the pale Sun Deng. Weiwen and Zhuge Zhi were also shocked. They quickly surrounded Sun Deng in the middle. Without saying a word, Deng Ai, Shi Bao and others came forward and surrounded them all together. The sound of "clicking" was endless, and the sword was drawn in the big tent. Zhang.
Sun Deng pushed away Zhuge Jin's hand and slowly walked to Sun Shao. He bowed to the ground without saying a word, but tears dripped on the ground. When he heard the news, he was more nervous than Sun Shao. Sun Quan gave up Sun Shao's son for Sun Wei, which was equivalent to pushing him to death. If Sun Shao wanted to kill him, could Zhuge Jin and others protect him? Instead of this, it's better to die honestly.
At this moment, he hated Sun Quan to the bone.
"You're right. It has nothing to do with your father." Sun Shao walked to Zhuge Ke and gave a salute to Zhuge Jin, who was red and swollen cheeks: "Shao Fang is in chaos and disrespectful to General Zuo. Please forgive me."
Zhuge Jin's teeth, what can he do if he doesn't have permission? At this moment, he can only put up with it.
"This has nothing to do with you." Sun Shao turned around and pulled Sun Deng, stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears: "I'm going to war with your father. It's not appropriate for you to stay here. Leave first."
"What?" Zhuge Jin was shocked. Does Sun Shao really want to fight with Sun Quan?
Sun Shao didn't even look at Zhuge Jin. He turned around and walked to the tent and shouted, "Generals, the army will set off immediately and drive to Jianye."
"Oh." Guan Feng stood up and hugged her fists and shouted loudly.
"What's going on?" Sun Shangxiang broke in angrily, blushed and shouted, "What's wrong with A Li?"
