Chapter 28: Confusion

Let's not talk about whether I want to marry him or not, just because he saved my life in the first place.

This time he came to Soochow, I should also help him get through the difficulties, and repay him this love, this love.

This is what I owe him, and he shouldn't have died at the hands of his second brother......

And I don't like the second brother to kill him by such a despicable means and take all of Jingzhou.

Today's Jingzhou is divided into three parts of the world, even if the second brother kills him and wins Liu Bei's share of Jingzhou.

And Cao Cao's point!

And Cao Cao's point must be difficult for the second brother to win.

If Liu Bei dies, Jingzhou, which has no barrier to check and balance, let alone whether Jingzhou will be seized or not, will be in danger at that time......

Doesn't the second brother know these truths, but he is still confused by people and lost his way by Jingzhou today.

Or maybe someone induced the second brother's thoughts, making him bent on killing Liu Bei.

Who the hell is it, I thought about it left and right, and after a long time, I finally figured it out.

It was he who wanted me to marry, and he wanted him to die, and only he could shake the second brother's thoughts.

Zhou Yu recommended Lu Su to go to Jingzhou to talk to Liu Bei in the court, but Lu Su initially refused......

Zhou Yu said: "Zijing and Liu Bei have some friendship, when Liu Bei fled Jingzhou, he was about to cross the Yangtze River in the south, and happened to meet Zijing, so there is today's coalition army, this beautiful thing, Zijing personally went out, twice the result with half the effort, Liu Bei also trusted Zijing more, is bound to break through the defense line, personally come to marry the girl." ”

There was a lot of discussion in the Jingzhou military camp, discussing whether to go to Soochow or not to marry the bride.

Liu Bei listened to the argument in the hall and felt a little embarrassed......

At first, he was very happy, remembering the scene when he saved Sun Ren that night, thinking that Sun Ren was handsome, talented, and heroic.

His sister must also be a beautiful girl in the world.

Thinking of this, he was overjoyed, with Sun Ren's benevolence and kindness, he must also go to Dongwu to marry his sister.

He secretly made up his mind in his heart, just because his bride was Sun Ren's sister, he wanted Sun Ren to be his uncle and brother.

Thinking of this, he was a little embarrassed, Sun Ren was young after all, and he was still a child.

He, an old man who is nearly half a hundred years old, has such a brave and resourceful uncle......

He was very embarrassed, and unconsciously muttered, "Sun Ren's sister is far from me in age, so it must be a little inappropriate." ”

When Lu Su presented the post, he was a little confused, and he even asked Lu Su in a daze, "Sun Ren is with his opinion?" ”

The first thing he asked was not Sun Quan's objection, but directly asked Sun Ren, and Lu Su, who asked, was stunned at first.

Lu Su reacted very quickly, thinking, Liu Bei is asking the fifth prince Sun Ren!

This is asking his girl Sun Shangxiang......

The fifth son is good at writing, but the girl often pretends to be the name of the fifth prince to go out to fight with the army.

During the Battle of Chibi, the girl was under Gongjin's tent.

In this way, Liu Bei must have met the girl on the battlefield, otherwise how could it be mentioned.

Lu Su smiled embarrassedly, "The fifth prince admires Jingzhou Mu very much, and often praises you for your courage and resourcefulness in front of the little lady, and often mentions in front of us that you are kind to him, and when you arrive in Dongwu, he will definitely greet you in person and be his family's fast son-in-law." ”

Liu Bei listened to Lu Su's words, and his face flushed.

For some reason, every time he thought of Sun Ren, he was in a very good mood, and his heart unconsciously bloomed.

It seems that his love affair with Sun Ren is not shallow......

There was still a lot of noise in the hall, and Liu Bei was a little impatient by their arguments.

Half of the people here hope that he will go to Soochow to marry, just because he can consolidate the state of the sexes and consolidate his strength.

Being able to retain this fertile land and solve the problem of combat readiness is conducive to later operations, storing strength, and preparing for action.

Soochow, a scorched earth that is temporarily quiet, has passed through peace and is not at war.

The other half of the opposition was afraid that he would go to Soochow in person, and that he would never return.

In this way, Jingzhou is bound to be in a mess, and that would be self-defeating.

At that time, it was meaningful to gain Jingzhou and lose Jingzhou.

Liu Bei was very happy at this time, he slowly got up and walked out, leaving behind him a dispute.

They were so noisy that they didn't even know that Liu Bei had walked out, only to hear someone shouting: "Stop arguing, the lord has already left." ”

Liu Bei only heard a shout behind him: "Lord, lord, lord...... ”

He strolled the streets alone, and at this moment it was already curfew.

The vendors on the street are moving tables and chairs into the house, eating, cloth, grain and oil, and all kinds of food ingredients.

Today's Jingzhou is very prosperous, because of the shortage of grain, oilseed and rape products in the counties due to the perennial war, the people have frozen to death due to the war, and countless people have died of starvation.

Looking at all this hectic everything, he smiled, he had already made up his mind that he must go to Dongwu to marry Sun Shangxiang.

Not for anything else, just for Jingzhou, which is so busy, to have a quiet and war-free paradise.

Today's Jingzhou is not easy to come by, and he can't be greedy for life and afraid of death and lose Jingzhou.

If he didn't go to Soochow to marry Sun Shangxiang in person, Sun Quan would lose face, and there would inevitably be a vicious battle to be fought.

In this way, Cao Cao has been fulfilled, and now Cao Cao dominates the three-point world.

At that time, the so-called Liu clan will be destroyed, and Cao Cao will coerce the Son of Heaven to make the princes punishable.

He can't get everything that is hard-won for his own selfishness, greedy for life and afraid of death.

Now that he is no longer young, he can't hesitate, he has been wandering and fighting everywhere in the past few decades, for what!

He knew that he didn't have the strength, so he avoided the edge, and endured the humiliation and threw himself into other accounts......

Isn't it just to wait for the opportunity to rejuvenate the country and restore the Han clan and the Liu family!

Thinking of this, he sighed and walked to the front of the stall, "Isn't it a pity that you don't buy this package of wontons, brother, what are you stuck in this wonton, are they all cooked?" ”

"Oops! This guest officer, this is already a curfew, and he doesn't dare to sell it anymore, if the guest officer wants to eat, he can come back tomorrow morning. ”

Liu Bei smiled, "It's okay, brother, let's cook it!" ”

"Guest, let's go! If the official family comes, not only will I not be able to open this store, but I am afraid that I will be imprisoned. ”

At this time, Zhuge Liang walked over from behind Liu Bei, and he smiled: "Lord." ”

At this time, the old man who sold wontons knelt down immediately, "It turned out that the master of Jingzhou was here, and it was the little old man who had no eyes and offended the adult." ”

Liu Bei stepped forward to help the old man who sold wontons, "Brother don't have to pay much attention, it's a pity that you have the rest of the wontons that can't be sold, now that food is in short supply, you can't waste it, you cook it." ”

As he spoke, he took out some broken silver from his bosom and gave it to the old man.

The old man was so frightened that he waved his hand again and again, "Adults don't have to pay, it's a little old man who gives it to adults, but the rest of today is wild vegetable wontons, lest adults can't get used to it." ”

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang looked at each other and smiled, Zhuge Liang said: "Brother said that he laughed, my father-in-law's favorite food is this wild vegetable wonton." ”

Liu Bei nodded, "You cut and cooked, but it's late tonight, so the two of us won't bother to eat here, I want to borrow your bowl and chopsticks, and it's okay to return tomorrow." ”

The old man bowed his head again and again, and replied very embarrassedly, "Okay, good, when you didn't come before, those military masters didn't give money when they came, and they left after eating, but now with this silver, I am a little uneasy." ”

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang sat at the table, waiting for the old man to cook wontons......

"We are the ones who keep Jingzhou safe, how can there be a reason not to give money for dinner! In the future, there will be no food in Jingzhou without paying, and you will not close your door at night, so that pedestrians can eat, and you can earn money, isn't this beautiful, this is the Jingzhou I want. Liu Bei said.

The old man nodded again and again, and after a while, he cooked four bowls of wontons, and Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang had two bowls of wontons in their hands.

As soon as the two of them walked around the corner, they saw Guan Yu and Zhao Yun coming over.

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Did you two smell the wontons?" It was such a coincidence, I originally thought that I would have two bowls with Kong Ming, but it seems that I can't eat alone, come, you can taste it too. ”

So Guan Yu and Zhao Yunle took the bowl, and the four of them sat on the ground and ate it.

The wontons were about to be eaten, and Guan Yu asked Liu Bei, "Big brother has a choice?" ”

Liu Bei finished the last wonton and drank the soup in the bowl before putting down the bowl.

"This wild vegetable wonton is very delicious."

When the three of them heard Liu Bei speak, they all put down the bowl and chopstick, stopped eating, and waited for him to continue.

I only heard Liu Bei continue: "I am already this age, I am already not confused, it is not easy to marry a young woman, besides, she is also the sister of Sun Quan of Dongwu, Jingzhou is not easy to come by, we can't lose Jingzhou, if I go to Dongwu this time and don't return, you don't have to think about avenging me, no matter what the circumstances can't lose Jingzhou." ”

Guan Yu listened to Liu Bei's words, and felt very uncomfortable......

"Big brother, now that Jingzhou is in our hands, what can he do with Dongwu, he will be waiting for him at any time."

Liu Bei knew that Guan Yu was worried about him, but he had to take care of the overall situation and couldn't give up this opportunity for his own life and death.

"Second brother! Today's Jingzhou is not easy to come by, and I can't go different ways with Dongwu for my personal safety, and Sun Quan doesn't dare to really let me die, after all, he has already decided to marry his own sister to me, isn't it! At least, he doesn't want to fight me now. ”

Zhuge Liang thought about it, he knew what Guan Yu's intentions were, and he knew that Guan Yu didn't want Liu Bei to go to Dongwu to marry Sun Shangxiang.

He knew that this was a beauty trick and knew that it was a trap, but for the sake of the future, for the sake of the Han family.

In order for Liu Bei to restore the surname Liu earlier and faster, he must support the lord to facilitate this marriage.

Only in this way can Jingzhou develop better, and they can walk longer, farther and longer side by side with Jingzhou......

"What the lord said is that in this view, Dongwu is already very sincere, if we resign, wouldn't it hurt the face of both parties, besides, the lord and the sister of Dongwu are not a good match, the lord is already over half a hundred years old, and the sister of Dongwu is twenty-nine years old, we have to refrain from such a marriage, it will inevitably attract Dongwu's hatred. And we are also the side that does not stand on the side, it is bound to attract everyone to besiege, and at that time, Jingzhou will be lost, so that all these years of hard work will fall short, and it will not outweigh the losses. ”
