Chapter 762: Taihu Lake

Xu Chun was paralyzed. He no longer has the capital to bargain, so he can only be slaughtered by others.

Wei Teng was not interested in interceding for Xu Chun, but he was a little touched by what Sun Ce had just said. He originally thought that Sun Ce wanted to seize the Xu family's property and land, but now he felt that this might not be the case. Sun Ce collected a lot of land in Nanyang and Runan, and he didn't hear much of the backlash. Regardless of whether he deliberately designed a frame-up or not, after all, the teacher is famous and will not be talked about.

He had a feeling that Sun Ce's words were meant for him. Xu Chun is already a fish and meat, and it is not worth his explanation at all. Killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, Xu Chun is the chicken at best, and he and the Huiji family are the monkeys. In other words, if they weren't as stupid as Xu Chun, Sun Ce was willing to cooperate with them and didn't want both sides to lose.

Sun Ce once said that he was willing to let him try to defend a county. He has cooperated with Ge Sheng to recruit new recruits these days, and Sun Ce is basically satisfied. I went to Wu County to take him with me this time, maybe I wanted to give him the opportunity to be a county magistrate or something.

He wouldn't want me to be Wu Ling, would he? Wei Teng was suddenly startled. According to the convention, Sun Ce is a native of Wu County, and he can't be the Taishou of Wu County, even if he takes Wu County, he must arrange for someone else to be the Taishou of Wu County, or act as a Taishou of Wu County. Sun Ce has a lot of warriors, but there are not many who can manage the government, and when he takes Danyang, he can only let Chen Zhi, who is just in his early twenties, be the Taishou. If he takes Wu County, he will need a Wu County Taishou or County Cheng. Sun Ce has a good relationship with Lu Kang and others, but Lu Kang is a Wu person, and he can neither be the Taishou of Wu County, nor can he be a county or Wu Ling, only he Wei Teng is suitable.

Wei Teng glanced at Sun Ce, just in time to meet Sun Ce's gaze. Seeing the corners of Sun Ce's slightly raised mouth, Wei Teng knew that he had guessed correctly. He was excited, and then he felt ashamed. It's just a Wu Ling, it's not a big deal for a Wu County Taishou, as for being so excited?

Wei Teng adjusted his mood and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "General, although you may have some disagreements with the Emperor of the Mansion, it is still inconclusive whether the assassin was sent by the Emperor of the Xu, maybe it was just a misunderstanding, so you sent troops to attack Wu County, I'm afraid it's not good." ”

Sun Ce rolled his eyes, noncommittal, and after a while, he said again: "Even if the matter of the assassin is inconclusive for the time being, then it is always a fact that he sheltered the Xu family, right?" The Xu family colluded with the thieves and wanted to be unfavorable to me, so I took Xu Chun down, and he actually sent someone to ask for it. What does he want to do? ”

"It's understandable that the general is angry, but he won't send troops to attack, and if this spreads, it will be detrimental to the general's reputation."

Sun Ce smiled secretly in his heart. Wei Teng can think about him, which means that his attitude has been loosened, which is a good start and should be encouraged. He wanted to take Wu County, but he couldn't rush it, especially when Tai Shici might be in Tongguan Mountain. Withdrawing from Tongguan Mountain is just a false shot, Zu Lang still has to wait for an opportunity in the mountains, if Tai Shici, Chen Wei and others want to go out of the mountain to recapture Yangxian, Zu Lang will take the opportunity to take their old nest.

At this time, he needed to go to Wu County alone to meet Xu Gong, and Wei Teng was a good candidate.

"What do you think you should do?"

"If there is a conflict that can be mediated, if the general believes me, I am willing to go to Wu County to meet Xu Fujun and express the general's intentions."

Sun Ce pretended to hesitate and muttered for a long time before he reluctantly nodded. "Then trouble sir. I will send you there personally, and if Xu Gongken is reasonable, Sir will reason with him. If Xu Gong wants to use force, I will use force with him. Salute first and then soldier, don't say anything unpredictable. He said hatefully: "I am also a reasonable person, he should not force me to be ruthless." ”

Wei Teng endured his stomach and bowed down to receive the order.

——

A day later, Sun Ce crossed the Taihu Lake and set up camp at the foot of Da Lei Mountain.

Wei Teng took a child and rushed to Wu County by a flat boat. He was very confident and calm, but Sun Ce was a little worried, not knowing if Wei Teng would come back alive. Don't look at Xu Gong from the Pingyu Xu family, and Xu Shao and Xu Jing are of the same clan, but he is not a scholar like Xu Shao and Xu Jing who can only move his mouth, he is a ruthless character, and if he disagrees, he may cut Wei Teng. This is not harmful to him, if Xu Gong really wants to kill Wei Teng, the Wei family will not take revenge on him, and his reasons for killing Xu Gong are more sufficient. Just borrowing a knife to kill someone, your conscience will hurt a little.

Alas, I am kind, but this world is too chaotic.

"Brother Dezu, this is the Big Thunder Mountain, and the one opposite is the Little Thunder Mountain. Yes, yes, if you look closely, you can see a little shadow, about sixty miles away from here. Shen You enthusiastically became a tour guide and introduced the scenery and long history of Taihu Lake to everyone. Therefore, the old legend says that this is the place where Shun avoided fishing and hunting when Danzhu was avoided, which was much earlier than Taibo Ben Wu, and decades earlier than Dayu's water control. ”

"Really?" Yang Xiu disagreed. "It's all word of mouth, right?"

"What's wrong with the word of mouth? How to write the ancient text of the holy word, the left ear and the right mouth, below is a king, you can't see such obvious evidence, it's not that I said you, Brother Dezu, you, you can guess the word puzzle, and you don't understand the gist of the saint's man-made words at all. ”

Sun Ce turned his head to look at Shen You, he really saw the same thing as a hero. However, Shen You just wanted to squeeze Yang Xiu, and he didn't realize the secret contained in it. Compared with the archaeology of later generations, which spoke with evidence, the readers of this era did not have the concept of archaeology, and what the books said was true, even if the words were not created by Cangjie, they were created by a certain sage, and there is no such thing as slow evolution. Therefore, for two thousand years, ancient history has been revolving in these classics, especially the Han people, who not only believe in the ancients, but also create the ancients, and many myths in later generations were created by the Han.

For example, Pangu turned heaven and earth.

Pangu was a great god that existed very early, but Pangu's cultivation of the world was only a matter later, and the Three Kingdoms era really took shape. In the minds of intellectuals in this era, everything in the world was created by a certain god, and writing is no exception. Of course, they don't believe that there is a slow evolution process of writing, nor do they believe that there was no writing in the era of Yao Shunyu that they yearn for.

Even the most learned paleographers of this era knew only the golden inscriptions, not the oracle bone inscriptions. Gold inscriptions can be seen on some ancient bronzes, and those carved with oracle bones are still sleeping under the Yin Ruins, and they will not be born until 1,800 years later. Of course, they will not know that there are other ways of recording in addition to ancient books, and they do not know the double evidence method, let alone the quadruple evidence method, which is an important method of archaeology in the mythological age.

Sun Ce didn't plan to talk about this for the time being, he knew that his knowledge was average, and he could only be a guide, not a master. The specific things are still left to the really smart people to do, and there is no need to do everything yourself, making yourself very tired. The foreshadowing has already been buried, and it will naturally work when the time comes.

Yang Xiu suddenly said: "Zizheng, you are from Wu County, do you know what ancient jade there is in Wu County?" ”

"Gu Yu? How ancient is it, does Wu Wangfu's bad time count? If you want to see it, I'm ......."

"What's so beautiful about the ancient jade of the Spring and Autumn Period, didn't you say that Shun avoided Danzhu, I want to see that era."

Shen You was speechless. Yang Xiu snorted and glanced at Sun Ce intentionally or unintentionally. Sun Ce smiled, disdainful. Shen You saw it clearly, blinked his eyes, thoughtfully, and the corners of his mouth provoked a touch of pride.
