Zhou Yu, after the Zhou clan of the Lujiang clan, the son of Luoyang Ling Zhou Yi, his cousin Zhou Jing, and his cousin Zhou Zhong were all officials to Taiwei. To put it simply, Zhou Yu is at least a second-generation official, or a third-generation official. In the Lujiang realm, Zhou Yu is definitely one of the best sons. has a good family background, is talented, and the key person is handsome, so good that he has no friends. It wasn't until that year that the Sun family moved from Wu County.

In the first year of Zhongping (184 AD), Sun Jian was recommended by Zhu Jun to attack the Yellow Turbans as Sima of the Zuo Army, and Sun Ce and his mother and younger brother stayed in Shouchun to live. Sun Ce has a handsome appearance, a broad personality, and strong martial arts, and is known as the "Little Overlord of Jiangdong", and his reputation gradually spreads from Shouchun to the surrounding areas. Shu County is not far from Shouchun, and Zhou Yu heard that Sun Ce, the "little overlord of Jiangdong", made a special trip to Shouchun to visit. Zhou and Sun are the same age, and they are both young and ambitious, and Yingda is long-aspiring. Therefore, when Yu Shouchun saw it, he treated each other sincerely.

This is a folk rumor, a story made up to beautify the friendship between the two. In fact, Zhou Yu ran to Shouchun to see Sun Ce, not because of admiration, but not because he was not convinced! What do you think, originally in the Huainan area, when people talked about the handsome and chic, both civil and military, the first thing that came to mind was Lujiang Zhou Yu! Now that Sun Ce is here, Zhou Yu, the former first choice, has become Sun Ce. Who can bear it, who can't bear it! Zhou Yu, the local little overlord, of course, has to meet Sun Ce, the "little overlord of Jiangdong", for a while!

As a result, the two are more poetic and poetic, and more talented and martial. Overall, Sun Ce's poetry and poetry are not as good as Zhou Yu's, but his martial arts are several grades higher than Zhou Yu's. More importantly, Sun Ce is open-minded, extraordinary, and extremely free and easy. If you lose, you lose, and you don't care. Win and win, and don't be arrogant. In the words of modern people, it is the temperament of a big man. So, Zhou Yu was finally convinced by Sun Ce, bowed to the wind, recognized Sun Ce as his eldest brother, and followed Sun Ce from then on.

Soon after, Sun Jian was recommended by Yuan to become the county guard of Changsha, and Sun Ce went to Changsha with his father. The two could not meet, but they were in contact by letter, and their friendship continued.

In the sixth year of Zhongping (189 AD), Sun Jian responded to the call of the Kwantung princes and went to defeat Dong Zhuo through Jingzhou. Zhou Yu wrote a letter to persuade Sun Ce to move to Lujiang Shu County with his mother and younger brother, and Sun Ce agreed. So, Zhou Yu gave up the mansion on the side of the road for Sun Ce's family to live, and ascended to worship his mother, communicating with each other, and was known as "the good of the total horn".

This time, Sun Jian attacked Jiangdong. Sun Ce's first thought was to summon his righteous brother to come and join in the great cause.

At that time, Zhou Yu was serving under his father, Danyang County Shou Zhou Shang. Yuan Shu found that Zhou Yu was talented, so he wanted to accept Zhou Yu as a general. But Zhou Yu thought that Yuan Shu would not achieve anything in the end, and he didn't want to have too much to do with him, so he invited himself to be the magistrate of Juchao. After hearing Sun Ce's call, Zhou Yu disregarded the opposition of his family, gave up the county magistrate of Juchao and joined Sun Jian's command.

"Zhuji, the history is the place where Dayu gathered the princes and discussed the great cause of water control. Therefore, on Zhuji Ramie Mountain, there has always been a big Yu Ding. The tripod has three legs, engraved with nine five-clawed nine dragons, and it is rumored to have the magical power to stabilize the world! Yu thought that Yuan Shu would be very fond of this gift! Zhou Yu said confidently.

Sun Jian's eyes lit up, obviously very much recognizing the "gift" that Zhou Yu had chosen. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong also nodded their heads and agreed with Zhou Yu's opinion.

"Now that the gift has been chosen, who wants to go to Shouchun to meet Yuan Shu and bring the general's self-incrimination letter?" Sun Jian asked again.

"Father, the child is willing to go!" Sun Ce once again came out to recommend himself.

"You? Reckless! In case Yuan Shu has the intention to make things difficult, I'm afraid that you won't be able to stand that insult and ruin the big things of our army! Sun Jian denied.

"Father! If you don't feel at ease, send Gongjin to accompany me, won't it be over? Gongjin came first to be steady, do you know? Sun Ce still didn't give up and pleaded.

Sun Jian looked at Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong and asked their opinions.

Zhang Zhao replied with a smile: "The trip to Shouchun will not be dangerous, the lord might as well follow the will of the eldest prince and go to experience it!" “

Hearing Zhang Zhao's intercession for Sun Ce, Sun Jian reluctantly agreed, and repeatedly told Sun Ce to control his temper and not act impulsively. Sun Ce agreed to all of them, and then couldn't wait to lead Zhou Yu out of the big tent and go to prepare for Shouchun and his party.

"Bo Fu, come quickly, what is your conspiracy in Shouchun? can make you give up the war in Huiji County, it is definitely not as simple as giving a gift to Yuan Shu! As soon as he came out of the Chinese army's big tent, Zhou Yu pulled Sun Ce to ask him clearly.

Sun Ceyi's face looked confused, and he said mysteriously: "Lu Zijing wrote a letter the day before yesterday, saying that the Qiao family in Wankou County, Lujiang County, moved back from the north to avoid trouble, and it was the son of the former Taiwei Qiao Xuan clan, the former Dongjun County Shouqiaomao. “

"I have heard the name of Qiao Yuanwei. He was one of the princes of the Eighteen Roads and participated in the battle against Dong Zhuo. It is said that he has also made great achievements in the field of scripture and history, and is an elder with high morals and an upright temperament. But what does this have to do with Birfu? Don't you like to hunt and start to like to study the scriptures? Zhou Yu was surprised.

Sun Ce immediately shook his head so unwillingly: "How can I dare to be interested in those pedantic words? Compared to the pleasure of hunting, the scriptures only make me drowsy. “

"This is the real Sun Bofu!" Zhou Yu smiled: "Since you are not looking for Qiao Yuanwei to study scripture and history, what reason do you have to find him?" ”

"It's not looking for Qiaomao, it's looking for Qiaomao's daughter! It is said that Qiaomao has two daughters, both of whom are national! The eldest daughter is alluring to the country and the city, and has a gentle temperament; The little girl is beautiful and eccentric. Now they are all unmarried, waiting for the word boudoir. is the so-called beauty with heroes, the two daughters of the Qiao family, are they a special match with my brother? Sun Ce laughed.

"The phoenix returns to its hometown and travels all over the world to seek its phoenix. It turned out that Brother Bo Fu had the heart of a phoenix! Zhou Yu also laughed and said, "If your Wu family knows the purpose of your trip, they will definitely refuse to take a break!" ”

"Moti Wu!" Sun Ce said angrily: "She relied on my mother's power to look at me closely!" ”

"Anyway, she is your cousin, your mother's niece, and you have known each other since childhood, so it's normal to be arrogant!" Zhou Yu persuaded Sun Ce to open some.

"No matter! This time, our brother not only has to complete the task assigned by his father, but also has to hug the beauty back, so as to not be young and crazy in vain! Sun Ce said in high spirits.

"Stop! It's you who is young and crazy, eldest son! I am a staff member, I take a steady and decent route, and I have won a reputation for being elegant and elegant, but I don't want to get the stigma of a prodigal! Zhou Yu excused.

"The bridge belongs to me, the small bridge belongs to you, you and I are both brothers and brothers-in-law, and it will become a good story in history in the future!" Sun Ce didn't listen to what Zhou Yu was saying at all, and he daydreamed of holding the beauty by himself.
