He had long known that Cao Shuo was going to be assassinated in Jiangdong, but Sun Quan just didn't expect Zhuge Liang to choose the first night of his marriage instead of the same day.

got the news, and heard that Cao Shuo didn't even have a hair hurt, and there was an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

In Jiangdong, someone assassinated Cao Shuo, and Zhou Yu secretly helped him, but he didn't even hurt a single hair of him, Sun Quan was a little more jealous of him than before.

Although he was faintly disappointed in his heart, Sun Quan still took a group of guards and hurried to the pavilion.

When Sun Quan came, Cao Shuo stepped forward with a smile on his face and said, "It's really a shame to delay Wu Hou's rest late at night. ”

"Brother Zirong is so big-minded." Sun Quan pretended to be anxious and said: "I heard about this, but I was not scared, and you can still laugh." ”

"I can't laugh, is it possible that I want to cry like Liu Bei?" Cao Shuo said: "The man's husband, tears flow down his face like a little daughter at every turn, I can't do that kind of thing." Although crying is not exclusive to women, crying when encountering problems is not something men should do. ”

"I didn't let Brother Zirong cry." Sun Quan said: "I just felt that I was assassinated by the assassins, at least I shouldn't be so indifferent. ”

"There are a lot of people who want to kill me." Cao Shuo pursed his lips and said to Sun Quan with a smile: "Actually, even Zhongmou may have such thoughts. ”

Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, and his face changed suddenly: "What does Brother Zirong mean by that?" ”

"I'm just joking, why is Zhongmou still serious." Cao Shuo patted his arm lightly: "After tomorrow, I will be Zhongmou's brother-in-law, will my family still have to intrigue like others?" ”

"Who does Brother Zirong think did this?" Sun Quan said: "As long as you say, I will arrest people immediately, and after I torture them, I will definitely give Brother Zirong an explanation." ”

"Who else can there be besides Liu Xuande." Cao Shuo said: "Each of these people has poison in their mouths, even if I order to stay alive, I'm afraid not a single living person will have it." ”

"Liu Xuande is really hateful." Sun Quan said: "I actually dare to send someone to Jiangdong to assassinate Brother Zirong, does he think that I will not send troops to fight him?" ”

"It's just a broken jar." Cao Shuo said: "Dealing with a mad dog, Zhongmou is completely unnecessary. ”

"What if Brother Zirong really has three long and two short ......," Sun Quan sighed and said, "How do you want me to explain to the Cao family?" ”

"No explanation." Cao Shuo said: "Before I came to Jiangdong, my father gave an order to the navy that if anything happened to me in Jiangdong, the Cao family's army would appear on the Yangtze River early the next morning. That way, there is an explanation. ”

"Brother Zirong, isn't he threatening me?" Sun Quan looked unhappy and asked Cao Shuo.

"Nope." Cao Shuo said with a smile on his face: "Actually, Zhongmou should be able to understand that General Sun was killed by Huang Zu at the beginning. Whether it is Bofu or Zhongmou, after commanding Jiangdong, he continued to crusade against Huang Zu, and finally avenged the old general. The so-called blood is thicker than water, and the love between father and son will never be alienated. If I was really killed by a gangster, and my father couldn't find the culprit, who would he pour out his anger on, I don't need to say, Zhongmou should also understand. ”

"Of course I do." Sun Quan said: "It's just that Brother Zirong's words are so straightforward, it's hard to accept. ”

"Zhongmou also knows that I really don't have any other shortcomings." Cao Shuo said: "He is very honest, always straightforward, and he will say whatever he wants." If there is anything that makes Zhongmou unhappy in the words, please forgive Zhongmou. ”

Sun Quan is full of black lines, and he feels that in the face of Cao Shuo, there is an indescribable powerlessness.

only then made a threat, and then actually said an understatement, which made people not know how to respond.

"Brother Zirong is justified in what he says." Sun Quan said: "There is no need to say much about this matter, I will send more people when I go back, so as not to regenerate." ”

"That's not necessary." Cao Shuo said: "Although Liu Xuande is stirring up everywhere, he never does superfluous things. If one assassination fails, he won't send a second or third group of men. ”

"Even so, it is necessary to send more people." Sun Quan said: "Tomorrow is the wedding date of Brother Zirong and Little Sister, in case something goes wrong again, our Jiangdong Sun family will not have a bright face." ”

"Zhong Mou thinks it's suitable, then it's good." Cao Shuo responded.

Looking at Gan Ning, Sun Quan instructed: "Go and allocate some more manpower, and be sure to ensure that Brother Zirong is thorough." ”

Gan Ning responded with a fist.

"It's not early, so I won't delay Brother Zirong to rest." Subsequently, Sun Quan arched his hand to Cao Shuo.

Cao Shuo returned the salute and said, "I'll send Zhongmou!" ”

Sending Sun Quan out of the building, Sun Quan explained a few words of extreme caution, and left with Zhang Zhao surrounded by the guards.

Walking on the road, Sun Quan asked Zhang Zhao, "Have you informed Gongjin about this?" ”

"I've already sent someone to say it before I came here." Zhang Zhao said: "I also ask Gongjin to be sure to guard against people who come from Jiangxia, so as not to cause further incidents." ”

"That's the right arrangement." Sun Quan said: "Although Cao Zirong didn't say anything, you and I both know that he is not a good person. If it's really too much, it will be affected along with our Jiangdong. ”

"That's what Wu Hou said." Zhang Zhao replied: "The Cao family's hundreds of thousands of troops are in Jingzhou, and at the moment Jiangdong does not have enough military strength to prevent them from crossing the Yangtze River, it is better not to provoke them." ”

Glancing at Zhang Zhao meaningfully, Sun Quan said: "What Zhang Gong said is that I am a little tired, you don't need to accompany me, go home and rest first." ”

Zhang Zhao bowed and saluted: "I'll retire first." ”

Looking at Zhang Zhao's back, the corners of Sun Quan's mouth pulled slightly.

The news of Cao Shuo's assassination reached Zhou Yu, who got up and sat without speaking for a long time.

There are not many guards around Cao Shuo, although Gan Ning leads troops to protect him, but Liu Bei sends all the dead soldiers who have achieved martial arts.

So many dead soldiers failed to hurt Cao Shuo, and Zhou Yu became more and more sure that in order to save Jiangdong, Cao Shuo must be killed first, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble in the future.

As soon as it was dawn, he left the barracks and went straight to Sun's house.

When Zhou Yu came, Sun Quan was also just up.

Since Cao Shuo and Sun Shangxiang got married today, the daily routine court meeting was put on hold for the time being, and he got up early to ask everyone who was planning the wedding how the progress was.

was about to go out, and saw Zhou Yu hurrying over.

"Why did Gongjin come so early?" Seeing Zhou Yu, Sun Quan asked.

"Cao Zirong was assassinated last night, and it was late at night when I got the news, so I didn't come to disturb Wu Hou." Zhou Yu said: "I deliberately got up early in the morning and wanted to ask Wu Hou what his plans were. ”
