The Three Kingdoms of Navigation

Chapter 39 There is a lot of tolerance

Sun Shao nagging and tirelessly listed the tragedy that talented women had no place to use and could only be reduced to the victim of favor. He made the bridge unreasonable. It seemed that it was not only wrong for Sun Shao not to wear this swimsuit to swim, but also simply misunderstood the saint's scriptures. But looking at the light swimsuit, I couldn't help but hesitate at the thought of wearing such revealing clothes in broad daylight.

"Mother, people come from the water, and then go back to the water, which is the best way to exercise in line with the heavenly way." Sun Shao twisted one after another, and the bridge was moved: "My mother is just too little activity, so she is weak. You just need to keep swimming in the sea for half an hour every day like your aunt to ensure that you are younger and younger year by year. Look at your aunt. She is standing with Yin Ping. Who can tell that they are two generations? I don't think it's any different from my sisters.

"Can I compare with her?" The bridge gave Sun Shao a ridiculous look, but his mind couldn't help but come alive. She is a few years older than Sun Shangxiang, but she looks much older than Sun Shangxiang. Sun Shangxiang is like a female leopard, full of vitality, but she is a little old and tired. If it can really be the same as Sun Shangxiang, it's really worth a try. Anyway, there are female guards, and you don't have to be seen by other men.

Sun Shao looked at the flashing eyes of the bridge and was proud. Finally, he found a pastime for the bridge besides reading books, drums and pianos. At the critical moment, he had to rely on deception.

"So, I misunderstood you." The bridge smiled apologetically.

"Of course." Sun Shao nodded repeatedly: "Mother, think about it, if I'm really a silver king, why bother me? Just find 500 women to strip naked and dance in front of them. Mother, I grew up under your teachings. How can you distrust me so much? You know, I really want to work for the welfare of the people in the world. I have no idea about these women. I am..."

"Okay, I know you're a good king. You don't have to boast so much, do you?" When the bridge saw Sun Shao's words, she couldn't help interrupting him with some fun. In an instant, she seemed to forget that the young man in front of her was not the king, or the naughty boy who laughed in front of her.

"Hee hee, I'm wronged." Sun Shao smiled dryly: " By the way, why did aunt come to thank you?"

"It's nothing. She came over the other day and asked me if I had any soup to nourish my body, so I gave her some of the prescriptions you made for me." The bridge said doubtfully, "I think she looks like a tiger. What are you doing with these?"

Sun Shao is also very puzzled. Is Sun Shangxiang sick? It doesn't look like it. She has been very angry recently. What's the prescription for recuperation?

" By the way, A Man, isn't it too risky for you to invite the Prime Minister to Zhu Ya this time, leaving only Yinping and the children in Qian Tang? In case the State of Wu comes to attack, isn't Qian Tang too few people?

"Hehehe..." Sun Shao smiled and said nothing. He got up and looked outside. He waved his hand to let the maids stand farther away. Then he returned to the bridge and whispered, "Mother, don't worry. If King Wu attacks Qian Tang before this, I will be a little worried, but now, he is too busy and has no ability to enter at all. Attack Qian Tang. Think about it, who is he in now? Where is it arranged? To the west is the State of Shu. Yinping's father is the general of the State of Shu. Now the holy family is in Zhenglong. Last time, the State of Shu was the first soldiers to come to the city, and to the north is Qingxu. Zang Ba and Sun Guan are my partners. Once the State of Wu wants to have something to do with me, they will not sit idly by. In addition, I arranged for Su Yu, the governor of the East China Sea in Lianyungang. If he is in the south Next, the coastal area of the State of Wu will be the target of his attack.

"Oh." The bridge breathed a sigh of relief, and the tightly clenched hand slowly loosened.

"I let the silver screen stay in Qian Tang. It seems very dangerous, but in fact it's nothing." Sun Shao smiled and said calmly, "I hope that the State of Wu will attack. In this way, the silver screen will not be too boring. It can also make contributions. Not only is her position of queen as stable as Mount Tai, but she can also be an official for women. Unfortunately, the king of Wu did not come."

The bridge took a look at Sun Shao and was very satisfied. She has been worried that Sun Shao will lose Guan Feng after marrying more women. Now it seems that this worry is completely unnecessary. Sun Shao had realized the possible battle in the harem, so he laid out for Guan Feng in advance. He thought that many of Sun Shao's soldiers from the Guan family had now become the backbone of the army, and Guan Feng's throne was unshakable. In fact, she doesn't care much about Guan Feng's status, but her feelings for Guan Feng's son A Yi are extraordinary. In Jianye's period, she had regarded A Li as Sun Shao's stand-in, and injected all her efforts into A Li. A Li was robbed. She seemed to have been pulled out of her spine, and her whole body collapsed.

"Yes, it's time for A Yi to make a name." The bridge reminded me.

"I've thought about it. It's called Feng. In the future, I'll call it Yuan Si." Sun Shao smiled and said, "He is the prince of my country, and he will inherit my foundation in the future."

"This is good, this is good." The bridge was happier than getting any baby when he heard this.

"However, the prince is not so easy to be." Sun Shao's words turned around and became serious: "It's not easy to be a good king. Mencius said that the sky will give a great responsibility to the Si people. They must first work hard, strain their muscles and bones, starve their skin, and empty their bodies. A Li is a good boy, but he is still far away from the king of a country. Before I hand over the throne to him, I have to let him suffer a lot of hardships, and sometimes it may even be very dangerous. Mother, I don't know if you and Yin Ping can understand this. If you protect your calf deeply, you may not understand what I do at that time.

As soon as the bridge heard this, she couldn't help wrinkled again. However, after all, she was a book-reader. She knew that Mencius's words were reasonable. If she wanted to become a powerful king, she would inevitably suffer. Her mother was defeated. Her heart was too soft-hearted, which was not the way of upbringinging, but everyone knew that she really wanted to see her heart suffer. Whether you can be ruthless, and whether you can persist in being ruthless all the time, that is the difference between success and failure.

Sun Shao looked at the bridge, and the bridge was also looking at Sun Shao. She recognized Sun Shao's meaning. In the past, when Sun Shao asked A Li to start practicing martial arts, she always loved her children and blamed Sun Shao for being too cruel. Now, in fact, Sun Shao loves children no less than her.

The bridge nodded, but the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily and muttered, "You didn't start practicing martial arts so early. Isn't your skills still good now?"

Sun Shao was stunned for a moment, but he did not consider this problem. According to the bridge's doting on him and the family conditions at that time, it seemed that he really didn't have many opportunities to practice martial arts, but his skills were really good. Not the memory he brought, but only his previous body, he seemed to be a master.

Am I a natural master?

When the bridge saw Sun Shao's face with doubt, he thought he was still thinking about how to explain him, so he said impatiently, "Well, the child is yours. You can toss it as much as you want. I won't care about it in the future."

Sun Shao was a little sad when he heard this. He sighed, sat by the bridge, took her hand over the palm of his hand, stared at the bridge's eyes, and whispered, "Mom, how can you say that? Yin Ping and I have never thought like this. You must not misunderstand us."

The bridge also regretted that this sentence was a little too much, but she didn't know how to explain it. vaguely, she seemed to have some regrets. A Yi is good at everything, only a little bad, that is, it is not her child, or she lacks nothing now, but a child she gave birth to, and she always feels a little short in her heart.

However, how can she have another child? Is it possible that a woman has never had a child in her life, so she is not a complete woman?

"Alas--" The bridge sighed, held Sun Shao's hand with his backhand, and gently stroked it: "A Man, I'm just an unintentional word. Don't remember it in your heart. I... I don't mean that."

Sun Shao blinked his eyes, and he was a little overwhelmed by the complicated eyes of the bridge at this moment. In recent years, especially after his marriage, the bridge has rarely been as close to him as before, and rarely shows such a look in front of him. In a trance, he was used to treating the bridge as a mother, not like when he first came to this world, he often blurred the boundary between his stepmother and sister. At that time, although the bridge looked bad, he was still very young, at least in his eyes, and in the past two years, he obviously felt The bridge is aging at a faster rate, especially after the hostage incident.

Sun Shao felt a burst of guilt in his heart and sighed silently. Although the matter was handled successfully, the damage to the bridge was always that he could not forgive himself. He thought for a moment: "Mother, there are many hot springs in Zhuya, which is very good for your health. In a few days, I will accompany you to look around and choose a place with good scenery. Fang, I'll build a manor for you.

"Why build a manor for me alone?" The bridge said puzzledly, and the colors were a little nervous: "Isn't it inconvenient for me to be with you?"

"What's the matter?" Sun Shao smiled and said, "Isn't your mother not used to swimming in front of outsiders? I'll build a separate manor for you. You are free, and you don't have to worry too much about what you want to do. Hot springs are good things. They can not only heal the disease and strengthen the body, but also nourish the face and beauty. Such a creation of heaven and earth was originally born for a beauty like my mother. Isn't it a waste?

The bridge was relieved and said anger, "There are not many serious words. Is it a joke on my head?"

"Uh--" Sun Shao's face was bitter: "I'm a piece of filial piety, okay?"

"Filial piety?" The bridge suddenly remembered something and glanced at Sun Shao: "If you really think of me, invite your aunt to stay here for a few days. I have only one sister left. If I can see her, even if she eats bran, I will be happy."

"Hey hey..." Sun Shao straightened up, touched his chin and said with a bad smile, "Mom, is that Zhong Ying's little vertical thinking about something again? I haven't figured out with him about Ah Yu. So is the silver screen. I left the secret soldier to her to prevent it. In case, she will use it to do this?

The bridge smiled awkwardly. This matter started with her. If she hadn't forced Guan Feng to do it, how could Guan Feng have used secret soldiers? However, judging from Sun Shao's expression, he did not mean to blame.

"This is not easy to do. Bo Ying is now a general of the State of Wu, and A Yu is an unexplored crown princess. Zhong Ying came to me again. My aunt is the only hostage. In any case, she can't leave Jianye and come to Zhu Ya. Mother, you can make it difficult for me to do this.

When the bridge heard it, it was also a little difficult. After thinking about it, there was no good way, so I had to shake my head and stop forcing it. However, when she thought of the current situation of Xiaoqiao and Zhou Yu, she was very concerned.

"Mother, I have a way." Xiahou Hui's petite figure appeared at the door. Seeing the bridge and Sun Shao sitting on their knees and holding hands together, he couldn't help but hide it. Then he hid it, reached out and held a strand of hair on the side of his temples, and said, "I just saw my aunt busy making soup in the kitchen. When I came back, I happened to hear my mother's words. I have a way to let my mother see it. To my aunt."

The bridge pulled back its hand awkwardly and forced a smile: "You should talk about it."

Xia Houhui walked to the other side of the bridge, fell affectionately beside the bridge, and muttered a few words. The bridge was a little unaccustomed to it, but after listening to her words, her eyes immediately lit up. She looked at Xiahou Hui's blown little face in surprise and praised, "Yuanrong, you are really a sweet person. How can I do with such a good idea? I didn't expect it." She turned her head and looked at Sun Shao reproachfully: "Aman, don't you want your aunt to come?"

"What is this? How can I have this idea?" Sun Shao was puzzled.

"Why don't you use such a good way?" The bridge pressed forward step by step and suddenly became in high spirits. Sun Shao was very confused: "What good methods do you have? If you can do it, of course I welcome you. Although I'm still very poor, there should be no problem in entertaining my aunt. Not to mention inviting her to accompany my mother, even if I build a manor for her alone, I can afford it.

"That's not necessary. Just let her live with me." The bridge squeezed his mouth and smiled. In an instant, he showed a playful smile, which made Sun Shao stunned. Zhong Ying is not young anymore. Pay attention to which daughter is suitable and help him. Can't you let your aunt come then?

Sun Shao suddenly realized that this is indeed a good idea. No matter how serious Sun Quan is, Xiaoqiao will not be allowed to attend Zhou Yin's wedding, but what about Zhou Yu? He didn't know that it was empty for the bridge to come, and the real purpose was to get Zhou Yu over. He scratched his head and had to answer vaguely, "Let me have a look first. It's not a trivial matter. You have to agree with Zhong Ying."

"As long as you have the heart to do it, you can always do it." The bridge smiled and said, "I believe you."

"Uh-" Sun Shao's eyes swept at Xia Houhui, made a fierce look of going back to clean up you later, and then nodded and said, "I must do it with my heart."

"What to do?" Sun Shangxiang strode in. Behind her, two women held a steaming clay pot and the other held several bowls. Sun Shangxiang motioned them to put the clay pot and bowl carefully on the table and raised her eyebrows proudly: "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, I'll treat you to drink soup. I've been up all day and night. How about it? It smells good, right?

"Can you make soup?" Sun Shao and the bridge looked at each other and opened their eyes wide at the same time.

"What? Can't you?" Sun Shangxiang was a little embarrassed by them. She stalked her neck and shouted, "I'm a female hero in the battlefield and the kitchen. What's the point of cooking two soups?" Zhu Ya is rich in ingredients, and there is the advice of Dong Feng's magic doctor. My soup is definitely a great tonic. You try it, you try it, let's see how it tastes?"

As Sun Shangxiang spoke, he personally put two bowls of soup in front of Sun Shao and Daqiao, and enthusiastically invited them to drink soup. The bridge picked up the bowl, pinched the spoon with two fingers, scooped some soup and took a sip to his lips. He frowned, glanced at Sun Shangxiang, and stopped talking. Sun Shangxiang's smile suddenly stiffened. She quickly packed a bowl and took a sip. Her face changed sharply. She quickly waved her hand to let people pick up the pottery pot and bowl and leave. She came and went quickly. Before Sun Shao could taste it, she disappeared outside the door.

"What, it doesn't taste good?" Sun Shao asked the bridge curiously.

"Others are okay, only one is wrong." The bridge said solemnly, "She probably used the wrong water."

"Use the wrong water?" Sun Shao is inexplicable. He has only heard of using the wrong materials, but he has never heard of using the wrong water. The bridge is really incomprehensible.

"Well, it's bitter and astringent. It should be boiled from the sea."

"Poo--" Sun Shao couldn't help laughing, and Xia Houhui couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing. With a bang, Sun Shangxiang appeared outside the door again and shouted to the bridge with a red face, "Sister-in-law, you are an empress dowager now. How can you talk like this? It doesn't save face at all. Isn't it just a little salty? As for the seawater, it's boiled out of seawater?"

Sun Shao couldn't help holding his stomach and falling to the ground with a smile. Sun Shangxiang blushed with shame. He stamped his feet and ran away like flying.

"Why is this tiger obsessed with soup?" The bridge smiled and asked puzzledly, "In the past, it was a person who didn't help when the oil bottle was poured down."

Sun Shao was confused, and Xia Houhui also shook his head with a smile.

After talking and laughing for a while, Sun Shao returned to his room and sat down. Xia Houhui made tea for him with his own hands, and then sat opposite him obediently and listened quietly. Sun Shao siped tea and glanced at her. After a moment, he said, "Yuanrong, what are you worried about?"

Xia Houhui was a little nervous. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head: "I'm not worried about anything."

"Alas--" Sun Shao sighed, "Yuanrong, I know you are used to competing for favor between wives and concubines, but I tell you that you are you, you are not your mother, and I am not your father, okay?"

"I know it." Xia Houhui made a nasal sound, but he resisted the tears that were about to overflow his eyes: "How can my father be side by side with the king?"

"You..." Sun Shaoben will talk about it later, but when he saw Xia Houhui's aggrieved appearance, he couldn't bear to say it again. Xiahou Huisheng was born in a rich and noble family. When she was born, Cao Zhen's great career had been completed, and Xiahou's family also became a quasi-family. What she heard and witnessed was the open and secret struggle of the rich family. Her biological mother is Cao Zhen's sister, but her father Xia Houshang doesn't like her mother. What he likes is another young and beautiful concubine. When he went on the expedition, he took that concubine. Even if he went home, he rested most of the time in the concubine's room and rarely came to Xiahou Hui's biological mother's room. Xia Houhui hated the concubine very much at that time. She even helped her mother come up with advice to deal with the concubine, but now she has become a concubine herself and feels the rejection between the bridge and Guan Feng intentionally or unintentionally. Only then did she understand why her father's concubine should not compete for favor by all means, because if she does not compete for favor, you will be bullied by others.

She never knew about Guan Feng's sending secret soldiers to help Zhou Yu. Today, she accidentally heard about it outside. She soon understood why Guan Feng did this. Guan Feng did this not because of how much she liked Zhou Yu, but to please the bridge. She knew that although the bridge was a stepmother, in Sun Shao's heart, the status of the bridge was no less than that of her biological mother. She could also guess that Guan Feng did this in the hope of pulling over Zhou Yu and form a common front, because Guan Feng clearly felt that she was plotting in power. She was not her opponent of Xia Houhui, so she pushed the boat to help Zhou Yu. It was done. Not only did the bridge thank her, but Zhou Yu would also thank her. If not, she did her best.

She doesn't want to fight. She is tired of this kind of fight, but she can't escape. This is a bloody battle. She can't be defeated without a fight. However, she also knew that Sun Shao was disgusted with this kind of fight, and he had never wanted to have such a fight around him. She knew that her careful thoughts could not hide Sun Shao. When she decided to say that way, she was ready to face Sun Shao's blame.

"Yuanrong, you know, the world is so big that you can't imagine it." Sun Shao's voice was a little confused and empty. It seemed to be talking about Xiahou Hui, and it didn't seem to be talking about Xiahou Hui: "The East China Sea is as big as the Han Dynasty. The South China Sea is bigger than the Han Dynasty. What about the West Sea? The West Sea is bigger than the East China Sea and the South China Sea combined. What is a Qian Tang, a Zhu Ya, and a Yizhou? There are countless Zhuya and countless Yizhou waiting for us to conquer. You are so smart, why do you limit your eyes to one county and one county? If you have tolerance, you will be strong. If you have no desire, you will be strong. Yuanrong, I hope you can be a celebrity and a tolerant celebrity as your name is. I have told you so many truths and analyzed the reasons for the rise and fall of the world countless times. Don't you understand my intention?

Xiahou Hui couldn't help crying. She bowed down to the ground: "Your Majesty, my concubine is stupid. I didn't understand the king's deep meaning. Please punish me."

"Punishment, punishment, why should I punish you? I asked you to have capacity. Is it possible for me to be a person without capacity? Sun Shao leaned over and pulled up Xiahou Hui, stretched out his hand to wipe the tears on her face, and said with a smile, "Yuanrong, now there is a woman from your Xiahou family in the king's room of Wei, and the crown princess of Shu is also a relative of your Xiahou family. You can't let me lose to Wei Shu. Our Yue country takes the sea as its territory and merchants to establish the country. You should have the same mind as the sea, the shrewdness of merchants, and run the world, instead of focusing on small profits.

Xia Houhui nodded embarrassedly, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes: "Your Majesty, the fifth general seems to be interested in someone."

"Oh?" Sun Shao was very surprised: "Who?"

"Naturally, people who need to drink tonic soup."
