Xing Daorong escorted Sun Ce back to Changsha, and at this time, Sun Jing, Sun Quan, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, and Cheng Pu and others in Changsha had also heard the news that Sun Ce was assassinated on the way, and they went out of the city dozens of miles away to greet them early.

Sun Ce asked Fang Jinzhi to be sent to his home to recuperate first, and then Sun Ce summoned Sun Jing, Sun Quan, Cheng Pu, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong and others to discuss matters together.

Everyone was naturally very angry about Sun Ce's assassination, and Cheng Pu was even more angry, and when he came to Sun's mansion, he immediately asked: "Lord, have you found out, who did this?" The last general is willing to lead the army to ask for it and avenge the Lord! ”

Sun Ce's face was expressionless, motioned for everyone to sit down, and then said quietly: "I have caught a live mouth, he has already confessed." ”

After speaking, he glanced at everyone's reaction at this time, and everyone was shocked, and asked in unison, "Who is it?" Lord, please speak clearly! ”

Sun Ce still said lightly: "The assassin he caught, he confessed that he was instructed by the prime minister. ”

Sun Jing, as Sun Ce's uncle, heard that it was Cao Cao, and immediately gritted his teeth and replied: "Cao Cao's husband!" My grandson's family is inseparable from it! ”

Sun Ce ignored Sun Jing's words and continued: "From that group of assassins, such a waist card has been found, and you can take a look. ”

After speaking, he took out a copper brand, handed it to Sun Jing, and then passed it to each other. The bronze medal is cast with a tiger-like pattern, and there are two small words the size of a fingernail on the tiger's head: Tiger Guard.

In the end, it was passed into Cheng Pu's hands, and Cheng Pu looked at Sun Ce and said: "The Tiger Guard Army is the elite division under Cao Cao's account, so it seems that the mastermind must be Cao Cao." ”

Sun Ce didn't reply to him, and then looked at Sun Quan and said, "What does Zhongmou think?" ”

At this time, Sun Quan seemed a little surprised when he heard Sun Ce mention his name, and then thought about it and said, "Big brother, I thought there might be something else hidden in this matter. Cao Cao is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and he is also a hero, if it is really Cao Cao who sent people to assassinate the former dead, how can he not let them disguise it, such a grandiose assassination, if something goes wrong, wouldn't it be one more mortal enemy? ”

"How can Zhongmou talk like this, the lord has the blessing of God, such a killer, naturally he can't help the lord in the slightest."

As soon as Sun Quan finished speaking, he was reprimanded by Sun Jing, "If something can't be done", it sounds like something else, Sun Jing can think of it, and naturally Sun Ce also wants to think of it.

"It doesn't matter, there is nothing wrong with what Zhong Mou said, and it is quite reasonable. Zhongmou, you continue to analyze, who will be the real master. ”

Sun Quan was reprimanded by Sun Jing, and his face was suddenly a little aggrieved, and when he heard Sun Ce continue to let him analyze, he hurriedly replied: "My brother really doesn't know, and I hope that my eldest brother will forgive me." ”

Sun Ce was silent, as if he was thinking about something, and at this time Zhang Zhao got up and replied cautiously: "If the lord wants to see who the mastermind is, you have to see who will benefit if the lord has any accident." According to the opinion of his subordinates, now that Jingzhou is about to be broken, if there is anything unexpected for the lord, Wu Ming will definitely take the opportunity to become bigger in Jingzhou, one of them; Second, it is naturally Liu Biao, if our army retreats, it will be extremely difficult for Wu Ming to capture Jingzhou with his own strength. Therefore, the second beneficiary is Liu Biao. ”

Sun Ce nodded, "It's just that now Liu Biao himself is difficult to protect, and Xiangyang can be said to be surrounded by water, how can he still send so many killers and blame Cao Cao?" It doesn't make sense, it seems that Wu Ming is the most likely. Besides, Qi Jiguang's army is in Jiangxia, and he can accurately detect the itinerary of our army, if he wants to ambush and assassinate, he is naturally the only one. ”

Zhang Hong added at this time: "There are also people loyal to Liu Biao in the four counties of Jingnan, although this matter seems to be very likely to be committed by Wu Ming, but the lord must not be afraid of people with other dissents around him. The subordinates suggested that the lord should not go out alone recently, in case he was found by the villain. ”

Sun Ce nodded, "Even if I know that it was Wu Ming, I won't tear my face with him now, after all, I still have to rely on him to help me defeat Xiangyang to avenge my father's revenge." Therefore, you must remember to keep the matter under discussion today a secret and not let others know about it. ”

The crowd replied in unison, "We will obey the Lord's commands." ”

Although Sun Ce had no expression on his face, he was very angry in his heart, he was not angry about who came to assassinate, but because he lost his child, and he still has no son, which is what he is most worried about. Originally, Fang Jinzhi was finally pregnant with a child, and he had high hopes for Fang Jinzhi, but this hope was lost so quickly like a soap bubble.

"If I knew who it was, I would have torn you to pieces, no matter who you were!"

Sun Ce shouted in his heart, and after everyone retreated, Sun Ce left Zhang Zhao alone, "Zibu, you said in your letter that Liu Biao's sworn friend is about to move, what do you gain now?" ”

"It's just that I heard that people from other counties have come to report from time to time, and some soldiers have mutinied. If there is only one county, it is normal, but if there are several counties together, there must be someone secretly commanding it, so I wrote a book to let the lord return to Changsha to sit in the town, so as to deter Xiaoxiao. ”

Sun Ce nodded, "In this way, there is indeed a problem." In addition to Changsha, the three counties of Guiyang, Wuling and Lingling, where is the most ferocious? ”

"Take Wuling County as the most." Zhang Zhao replied.

Sun Ce sneered, "Okay, then in two days, I will personally lead the army and conquer Wuling again, I want to see who is making waves there." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Zhao hurriedly persuaded: "Just Wuling, you only need a general and thousands of soldiers to stabilize Wuling." Why is the lord so personally in danger? ”

Sun Ce shook his head, "Since I know that Wuling is merely a mere one, I, Sun Ce, lead thousands of soldiers, naturally there is no one to do, what danger is there to make?" No matter what Wuling says, it is also under my rule, Zibu doesn't need to say much, there are some things, I still have to check it in person to rest assured, besides, after the assassination, my heart is even more depressed, and it is good to go out and relax. ”

When Sun Ce said this, Zhang Zhao had no reason to object, and he continued: "Since the lord wants to go to Wuling to find out the truth in person, then bring Cheng Puhan as Xing Daorong and other generals, and his subordinates will dare to rest assured." ”

Sun Ce laughed and said, "Zibu is really cautious! Well, this time it will be according to your words, otherwise if you sue your mother again, you will be reprimanded by your mother! ”

Zhang Zhao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, Sun Ce said this because once Sun Ce was in danger personally, Zhang Zhao didn't listen to it, so he wanted Sun Ce's mother Mrs. Wu to persuade him, but Mrs. Wu immediately criticized Sun Ce. So when Sun Ce said this, Zhang Zhao's face turned red and he smiled awkwardly: "The lord said he was laughing!" ”

Sun Ce accompanied Fang Jinzhi in Changsha for a few days, and after slowly calming down her emotions, he ordered 3,000 soldiers and horses and came to Wuling again.

Since Jin Xuan, the former Taishou of Wuling, was stabbed to death by Cheng Pu with a spear, Sun Ce appointed Gong Zhi, the chief bookkeeper, to take over the post of Taishou of Wuling, and the soldiers and horses of Wuling City were siphoned off by Sun Ce 3,000, and the remaining 2,000 soldiers and horses were handed over to Gong Zhi to let him manage Wuling.

Sun Ce came to Wuling, the time has come to autumn, it is the season of rice ripening, looking at the harvest of Wuling, Sun Ce is naturally very happy. Gong Zhi personally went out of the city to greet Sun Ce, and said guiltily: "The subordinates are incompetent, let the lord come to Wuling again again, please punish the lord!" (To be continued.) )
