Chapter 389: Er Qiao's Worries
"I'll definitely get you! Haha......"
"Ahh No! With an exclamation, Xiao Qiao, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly got up like a conditioned reflex. Although she soon realized that she had just had a nightmare, she still couldn't calm down when she came back to her senses, and even she could hear the sound of her violent heartbeat.
It's so strange that her husband has been dead for five years, and she has been widowed all these years, but she often dreams of her husband Zhou Yu's voice and smile, but tonight Xiao Qiao dreamed of Liu Cong, the "evil man of Jingzhou". In the dream, this Liu Cong was not only swept away, but Sun Quan's family was killed.
But this wicked road never stopped there, but gathered his sister and himself together, intending to occupy it! Xiao Qiao naturally didn't obey, but he didn't expect this wicked man to want the overlord to bow hard, which scared Xiao Qiao from his dream!
It's so weird! How could I dream of this wicked man? Although Xiao Qiao has never met Liu Cong, the dream is only a vague image. Touching his back behind him, he was already soaked, and he was afraid that he couldn't sleep.
"Mother, what's going on?" Zhou Yu's eldest son, Zhou Xun, who could hear the movement, got up from the next room and came to visit his mother. Zhou Xun is a dutiful son, his father died of illness when he was young, and his mother often missed his father and woke up crying in the middle of the night. This week, he didn't dare to sleep at night, for fear that his mother would have an accident.
"Nothing?" Little Joe shook his head and replied.
"Remembering your father again?" Zhou Xun also knows that his father and mother have a very good relationship, and after so many years, his mother has not been able to let go. It's just that the mother and sisters married Jiangdong Erjie, but they were envious of others.
But a few years have passed in the blink of an eye, but they are both widowed, so that no matter how strong a woman is, it will be difficult to accept it for a while. Fortunately, Zhou Yu left Xiao Qiao a son and a daughter, the eldest son Zhou Xun and the second son Zhou Yin.
Especially the eldest son Zhou Xun has been smart and studious since he was a child, Zhou Yu was only seven years old when he died, but now he has the demeanor of Zhou Lang when he was young, which also made Xiao Qiao secretly determined to live well and raise these three children to adulthood.
"Xun'er, is Jiangdong at war with Jingzhou?" Xiao Qiao was no longer sleepy at this time, so he casually asked about his son's outside.
"Yes, I heard Brother Sun Shao say that this time we may have ** annoyance. Lu Dudu has repeatedly asked Wu County for help. LΓΌ Meng will bring 20,000 elite soldiers, but he will not be able to break the siege. Now the old general Cheng Pu has brought 20,000 sailors to support Chaisang.
In this way, there are only a few county soldiers left in Danyang and Wu counties, not to mention Cao Cao's sudden attack, I am afraid that if someone in that county makes a rebellion, it will cause a catastrophe......"
"My son has grown up and knows that he cares about the affairs of his family and country." Xiao Qiao was very pleased to take Zhou Xun, touched the little guy's head and continued to ask, "Then what did Brother Sun Shao tell you?" β
The elder brother also said that this was the retribution of heaven, and Sun Quan had no way, went against the sky, and claimed to be the king in vain, which led to the revenge of the whole court. I'm afraid that Cao Cao will also sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight this time......"
"Yellow-mouthed child! How can you call the lord by his name? This is a great rebellion! Xiao Qiao looked at Zhou Xun with great relief just now, but Zhou Xun's words just now startled him. This is obviously not something that Sun Shao, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child, can say.
There was no respect for the elders and the lord in the words. Xiao Qiao thought that Sun Shao must have heard it from Zhang Zhao, and told his cousin Zhou Xun as it was. I couldn't help but complain to Zhang Zhao in my heart, how can I tell the children about this thing in the court?
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xun said seriously: "It was Sun Quan who rebelled, he first murdered his uncle's good father. Now it is also the king and hegemon! β
"Xun'er! Don't talk nonsense! Regarding the deaths of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, Xiao Qiao had also heard some gossip, but she didn't believe that Sun Quan would do so. And his husband did die of illness, but the child was young and didn't know it, and he was easily bewitched. She had heard her sister complain before, saying that someone had passed these rumors to Sun Shao.
Now it seems that Sun Shao is convinced, and passed these rumors to his cousin Zhou Xun! Zhou Xun is only twelve years old, and his mind is far inferior to Sun Shao. Naturally, it was my cousin who said what it was. That's why we have today's wrath! not only called Sun Quan famous, but also dared to say that he was rebellious!
"Mother, it's all spread like this outside, and it's a big rebellion for him to kill his brother! If the son is still alive today, he is still not satisfied with the imperial court appointing him as a captain, and he wants to be the king, which will bring unwarranted disasters to the people of Jiangdong! If Jiangdong is defeated, the Xiangyang Imperial Court will definitely not be spared, and our Zhou family is afraid that he will also be affected
"Shut up! These are the words of the villain, that is, to divide my Jiangdong during the war, you have also read a lot of books, why is it so unclear! In the future, my mother doesn't want to hear this kind of rebellious words again! Go down! β
"Mother......" Zhou Xun saw that his mother was angry, and he softened suddenly, and then he remembered that he was here to endanger his mother, but how did he make his mother angry, so he looked at Xiao Qiao cautiously on his knees: "Mother, don't be angry, the child is wrong!" β
"Hey...... You go back to the room to rest first, my mother is also tired. Xiao Qiao knew that the root of the disease was not in his son, nor in Sun Shao, but in Sun Shao's teacher Zhang Zhao. I have to go to my sister's house tomorrow to talk to my sister, and I can't let Sun Shao and Zhang Zhao go back and forth like this anymore. Especially now that Jiangdong has started a war, the children are still young and easy to be bewitched!
After Zhou Xun left, Xiao Qiao couldn't sleep! It seems that his worries are not unnecessary. Jiangdong originally had an advantage in the naval army, but that was relative to Cao Cao, who was powerful in the north. Now Liu Cong is in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and goes down the river......
Just because Liu Cong sent people to win over Jiangdong celebrities some time ago, it led to a serious split in the Jiangdong group. Now is a troubled time, and the war is together, and there must be many people who see the wind and turn to Liu Cong with their families and mouths.
Early the next morning, Xiao Qiao took his eldest son Zhou Xun to his sister's house. Xiao Qiao explained the reason, and Da Qiao was also very anxious, and sent someone to find Sun Shao for culture as soon as possible.
Sun Shao naturally denied that Zhang Zhao told him.
"Mother, aunt. Now there is more than one gentleman in the entire Wu County who says this. At first, Mr. was just angry in the court, and then he closed the door. My uncle also sent someone to seal the door of his mansion with earth, and later sent someone to set it on fire......"
"Can't you say anything else? Your brother is still young, and you don't teach him to endorse all day, so why do you tell him this? "The festivals about Sun Quan and Zhang Zhao in Sun Shao's mouth, the sisters and wicked people have naturally heard of them.
However, they are different from Sun Shao, they understand the style of Sun Quan and Zhang Zhao, the more the two of them are so good at making trouble, the more they show that they care about each other, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but after being passed on like this, it is not the same thing in Sun Shao's ears.
In Sun Shao's view, Zhang Zhao was snubbed by his uncle Sun Quan because he was loyal to his father and favored himself, so that he later became troubled, and the two fell out for two years! Of course, Sun Shao didn't want to see Jiangdong fall into the hands of Liu Cong, but he was also unwilling to let Sun Quan be powerful in Jiangdong. The persuasion of the two Da Qiao sisters was effective for Zhou Xun, but Sun Shao couldn't listen to it at all, he was already a half-sized young man, and he had his own opinions!
"Hey, I hope Zijing can resist Liu Cong's attack!" Looking at the two and a half old children, Da Qiao sighed helplessly, she and her sister Xiao Qiao are also Jiang Dongfenghua's peerless women. Both of them are married to good husbands. It's just that the current situation is something they can't think of, and it's not something they can control.
And Da Qiao is even more worried that those big families in Jiangdong will take the opportunity to make trouble! In this troubled era, the family has also begun to take shortcuts. Some of the big families, especially those who had grievances with Sun Ce during the pacification of Jiangdong, would jump out one after another to find trouble.
Da Qiao had long heard that there were some of them, Sun Ce did not kill them in order to win the hearts of the people, but on the contrary, he also gave them a high official position, but now he also used the power in his hands to start making waves.
In addition, the news of Liu Cong's preferential treatment of Zhuge Jin and Lu Xun reached Jiangdong, and he sent troops to Jiangdong in the name of rebellion. Some people even started to move their possessions in case of an emergency! Not only that, Liu Cong also sent the "only surviving" Shiwu of the Shi family to Jiaozhou to build momentum. In this way, Sun Jing and Bulu, who stayed in Jiaozhou, were also a little in a hurry. Regarded as the four counties of Jiaozhou, almost half of the territory under Sun Quan's rule began to be unpeaceful.
But in this extraordinary season, Sun Quan and Zhang Zhao have such a contradiction, what do angry people think? If Sun Shao adds chaos to it, I'm afraid that this Jiangdong will really be in chaos!
Seeing that his sister was also sad, Xiao Qiao knew that he had added trouble to his sister, because he taught his nephew and Zhou Xun a lesson in front of his sister before letting the two out. Seeing that the two brothers were as good as one person, Xiao Qiao seemed to think of her husband and brother-in-law again.
"Sister, what should we do now?"
"Defending the country is their man's business! You and I just have to control these children. Don't let them talk around anymore! At the beginning, the children are ignorant and talk nonsense. If it's bigger, it will shake the hearts of the army......"
"Yes, sister, I think so too. It can be said that I am a little worried, do you think Jiangdong can win this time? Why doesn't Shao'er have any chance of winning at all? And I had a strange dream last night...... "In front of my sister, who is also a mother and has been widowed for many years, Xiao Qiao did not hide anything.
"Sister, what I want to do now is not to cause trouble for Zhongmou. The outcome of the battle is not something you and I can control, and when it comes to that day, we can only resign ourselves to fate...... "Da Qiao doesn't know why his sister has such a strange dream?
Although the two sisters have been widowed for many years, they have been living a peaceful life all these years. Could it be that my sister misses a man? It's not right, she hasn't met that wicked Liu Cong. Maybe it's because of fear. Da Qiao also sighed helplessly. In Jiangdong, they are highly respected, but one day, Liu Congbing will come to the city, maybe everything in his sister's dream will really happen!
But what can they do as women? can only hope for Sun Quan's big victory, if Jiangdong is defeated, they can only resign themselves to fate!
