Huihe County

The night was faint, Sun Quan stood alone in the courtyard, looking at the starry sky, and there was a sense of loneliness in his heart, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Alone in a foreign land as a stranger", I missed my mother and brothers and sisters in Wu County. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Childe", Zhou Tai walked forward from the back, holding a shirt in his hand and draped it over Sun Quan.

"Youping", Sun Quan comforted in his heart, lined his shirt, and said, "Tomorrow, you will escort Qiao Lu Qiaoshuang to Wu County with a team of soldiers."

"Yes," Zhou Tai replied in a low voice.

"Tell Brother Ce about this matter, and send her two into the house to be taken care of by my mother", I can't help but think of my mother Wu, that day I didn't come to Shouchun as a hostage, my mother cried quite poignantly, hey, I don't know if Kuang Xu's two younger brothers have grown taller, whether Shang Xiang is still dancing with knives and guns all day long, heh. I don't want to get moist from the corners of my eyes.

With that, he turned away, put on his shirt, and wiped away the tears that had just come out of the corners of his eyes.

Entering the room, he picked up the lamp and candle, the faint candle shook and brightened, and Sun Quan picked up the candlestick and put it on the bookcase. Unfolding a roll of bamboo slips, he wrote:

"Mother's own enlightenment

The child is all right,......".

Writing and writing, I couldn't help but redden, got up and closed the door, sat back in front of the bookcase, continued to pick up the pen, the candlelight became more and more blurred, and after a few strokes, I told the story of Qiao's house in two or three words, and asked my mother to treat Qiao Shuang and Qiao Lu's second daughter.

Sun Quan rolled the bamboo slips and put them on the case, got up to wash his face, sorted out his clothes, sat in front of the case to calm his emotions, got up and took a cloth belt to tie the bamboo slips after a while, and got up to find Qiao Lu and Qiao Shuang.

After knocking on the door, he waited for a while, and the person who opened the door was Qiao Lu, who bowed politely.

"Childe"

Sun Quan nodded and smiled, "What about Shuang'er?" ”

"Shuang'er is young, and she is quite tired in the past two days, so she fell asleep."

"You are only one year older than her, I have worked hard for you", Sun Quan saw Qiao Lu's tired face, and handed over the bamboo slip in his hand, "This is a letter from home, tomorrow you will return to Jiangdong Wu County with Youping, and after seeing my mother, I will hand it over to her, my mother is very kind, and will treat you and Shuang'er well."

Qiao Lu took the bamboo slip, Sun Quan turned around and wanted to go back, Qiao Lu opened his mouth and said:

"Childe"

Sun Quan turned around, "Huh? ”

"Childe is in Jiangbei, be careful, I hope Zhongmou can return to Jiangdong as soon as possible", Qiao Lu said softly.

"I know", Sun Quan smiled and turned to leave.

......

Early tomorrow morning, Sun Quan and Yuan Yao will personally send Zhou Tai and Er Qiao off.

"It will take more than 20 days to go back and forth, and Tai will return as soon as possible", Zhou Tai said.

"En", Sun Quan waved his hand, "Let's go, Youping"

"Yes", Zhou Tai got on his horse and led a team of soldiers to escort the carriage away.

"Zimin, have you ever found any traces of the assassin?" , Sun Quan watched the people leave, and turned his head to look at Yuan Yao.

"I found some Cao Jun scout waist cards, but it is difficult to check the details, and I have entrusted Zitai to check them carefully," Yuan Yao replied.

"Leave tomorrow and return to Hexian?"

"Well, I have collected more than ten good craftsmen, and I want to come to Shouchun The military craftsmen have arrived in He County, and they can set up eight bull crossbows after returning", Yuan Yao replied.

"Okay", Sun Quan said softly.

Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Xun sent off, Yuan Yao, Sun Quan, and Liu Ye led more than 50 people to leave Anhui City, and went to He County, all the way to Hexian, and returned to He County after five days.

Now it's August, the rice in the field is still breaking through the soil, full of greenery, the children are climbing mulberry leaves and mulberries among the mulberry forests, and the laughter is everywhere, and the corners of Sun Quan's mouth are laughing.

A group of people came from the riverside, urging two ox carts, one of the people on the car saw that it was Sun Quan, and hurriedly beckoned his partner to come forward to salute, "Lord", "Lang General", "Lord Sun", everyone took a big carp from the car and offered it to Sun Quan.

"The catch is good", Sun Quan said with a smile, the person who came was a team of people who had built a boat and fished with the farmers before, everyone was carrying fish in their hands, and the fish that should be caught with nets in the ox cart, Sun Quan stepped forward to see, they were all big fish, weighing three or four catties.

"Thank you", Sun Quan took the fish, estimated that it was more than ten catties, and said with a smile.

"Where is Lord Lang, if you don't teach me to build nets and lead the people to build ships, where will we catch fish?" , the fishermen did not dare to accept it, and said gratefully.

"Let's go back to the city," Sun Quan said with a smile, handing the horse to the soldiers.

"Go together, go together", shouted the fisherman, making room for the ox cart and asking Sun Quan to get on the cart, but Sun Quan insisted on walking with them, and everyone walked forward, laughing all the way, and Sun Quan also asked more about the current situation.

"Childe, Sun Zhongmou is so popular with the people?" , Liu Ye was surprised and asked Yuan Yao.

"You only hear Yang envy Sun Zhongmou, do you know Sun Zhongmou in Hexian County?" , Yuan Yao asked without answering.

"Zimin still wants to say it", Liu Ye asked.

"Do what you say", Yuan Yao urged the horse to leave, Liu Ye followed, the two talked all the way, and everyone walked towards the county government.

......

However, it is said that Zhou Tai led a team of soldiers to Jiangdong, crossed the river, passed through Danyang, adjacent, and arrived at Wu County in seven or eight days, and first sent Er Qiao into Sun's Mansion to meet Mrs. Wu.

When Mrs. Wu saw Qiao Lu, Qiao Shuang's face was tired but it was difficult to hide her beauty, and Wen Zhou Taixu said that she also sympathized with the two in her heart, and took the second daughter's hand to narrate.

"Zhongmou has a letter from the family and wants me to pass it on to Mrs. Wu", Qiao Lu saw that Mrs. Wu was kind, suddenly remembered the family letter, got up to find it, and handed it to Mrs. Wu.

Mrs. Wu Zhanzhu Jian saw it, her heart was sad, and she saw that Er Qiao lost her father and became an orphan, remembering that Sun Quan was still in Jiangbei as a hostage, tears were like springs, and Er Qiao was crying again, and after a long time, she changed her mind and quickly got up and ordered someone to vacate two rooms to take care of Er Qiao.

Zhou Tai rode a horse at a gallop, and after two days, he saw Sun Ce, who led the army back to the north.

When Sun Ce saw Zhou Tailai, he sat down and asked eagerly:

"Youping, didn't I send you to guard Zhongmou, how can I come back?"

Zhou Tai told Sun Ce in detail about Qiao's mansion.

When Sun Ce heard that Cao Jun's assassin had assassinated Sun Quan, Qiao Gong died because of this, kicked over the table, drew his sword, and split it into two sections, his tiger's eyes were red, his pupils were wide, and he shouted:

"Cao Thief An dares to deceive me!!"

"My grandson Bofu visited school at a young age, and the family despised me! Cheap me! Only Qiao Gong respects me! Thick me! I risked my life to fight, take Lujiang, Zhanqu, Hengjiang, and almost die several times, so as to take my family! In order to take the Yu Chapter, Zhongmou is willing to enter Shouchun as a hostage! Now that Jiangdong is peaceful, with 30,000 soldiers, he Cao Cao thinks that the Son of Heaven is in hand, so he can run rampant? ”

Sun Ce was so angry that none of the ministers and strategists in the audience dared to speak, and the veteran Cheng Pu stepped forward and said: "My lord, I think it is better to marry Yuan Shuding first and get back Zhongmou, after all, Jiangbei's safety is unpredictable."

Huang Gai and Han Dang all stepped forward to agree with this, the veteran of Eastern Wu has been fighting with Sun Jian for many years, and Sun Jian's heirs are all regarded as their own, and they are also indignant when they hear this, and they want Sun Quan to return to Jiangdong first.

"The lord is angry for the time being, the matter has come to this, the second prince must get it back as soon as possible, you might as well hold Yuan Shu accountable first, and the son of heaven will ask Cao Cao for an explanation", the mastermind Chen Duan said.

"Xin is willing to ask Cao Cao in Xu Du, and be sure to give an explanation to the lord," Hua Xin said.

When Sun Ce took Yuzhang, Zhang Hong had persuaded Yuzhang to defend Huaxin and surrender the city, and now he is Sun Ce's adviser for the time being.

Sun Ce's anger gradually dissipated, and when he heard this, he felt reasonable, and said, "There is such a Mr. Lao Ziyu."

"The assassination matter, in the final analysis, is just that Yuan Shu wants to be the emperor, Han and Yuan are not separated, and Bo Fu must know his mind early", the strategist Qin Song stepped forward and picked up two pieces of broken wood on the desk and said seriously.

Sun Ce smiled helplessly: "Let me think about it."
