Chapter Thirty-Nine: Tolerance is Great
Sun Shao chattered, and tirelessly listed the tragedy that talented women have no place to use and can only fall victim to the favor, and said that the bridge is reasonable, as if he did not wear this swimsuit to swim is not only to blame Sun Shao, but also to misunderstand the meaning of the sage. But looking at the light swimsuit, I couldn't help but hesitate a little when I thought that I was going to wear such revealing clothes in broad daylight.
"Mother, people originally came from the water, and returning to the water is the best way to exercise in line with the way of heaven." Sun Shao reasoned one after another, and said that Daqiao was excited: "Grandma is too little activity, so she is weak, you just need to follow your aunt and insist on swimming in the sea for half an hour every day to ensure that you are younger and younger year by year." You look at my aunt, she is standing with Yinping, who can tell that they are two generations? I don't think it's any different from a sister. ”
"Can I compare to her?" Daqiao glanced at Sun Shao with a smile, but his mind couldn't help but come alive. She is not a few years older than Sun Shangxiang, but she looks much older than Sun Shangxiang, Sun Shangxiang is like a female leopard, full of vitality, but she is a little old and decrepit, and her fatigue is gradually appearing. If it can really be the same as Sun Shangxiang, then it is really worth a try, anyway, there are female guards to protect it, so it is not afraid of being seen by other men.
Sun Shao looked at Daqiao's flashing eyes, and was proud in his heart, he finally found a pastime for Daqiao in addition to reading books and playing the piano, and he had to rely on flickering at the critical moment.
"So, I misunderstood you." Ohashi smiled apologetically.
"Of course." Sun Shao nodded again and again: "Mother, do you think, if I really want to be a silver king, why bother with this?" It's not enough to find five hundred women to strip naked and dance in front of them. Mother, I grew up under your teachings, how can you distrust me so much? You know, I really want to work for the welfare of the people of the world, I don't have any thoughts about these female pawns, I am ......"
"Okay, okay, I know you're a good king, you don't have to boast so much, do you?" Seeing that Sun Shao couldn't hold back his words, Daqiao couldn't help but interrupt him a little funny, and in an instant, she seemed to forget that the young man in front of her was not a king, but the naughty boy who was laughing and laughing in front of her.
"Hehehehe, I'm wronged." Sun Shaogan laughed twice: "By the way, why did my aunt come to thank you?" ”
"It's nothing, she came to me two days ago and asked me if I had any soup to nourish my body, and I gave her some of the recipes you made for me." Ohashi said suspiciously: "I see that she is as angry as a tiger, what are you doing with this?" ”
Sun Shao was also puzzled, Sun Shangxiang was sick? It's not like, she's been so angry lately, what is she doing with the prescription to recuperate?
"By the way, Aman, you invited the prime minister and them all to Zhuya this time, but it was too risky to leave Yinping and the child in Qiantang? In case Wu Guo comes to attack, is Qian Tang's manpower too small? ”
"Hehehe......" Sun Shao smiled and said nothing, got up and looked outside, waved his hand to let the maids stand farther away, and then returned to the bridge and said softly: "Mother, don't worry, if King Wu attacked Qian Tang before this, I was still a little worried, but now, he was too busy to take care of himself, and he had no ability to attack Qian Tang at all." Think about it, in whose hands is he now? And where is it arranged? The west is the Shu State, Yinping's father is the general of the Shu State, and now the Holy Family is Long, the last time there was something, the first soldiers of the Shu State came to the city, the north is Qingxu, Zang Ba, Sun Guan is my partner, once the Wu State wants to have something to do with me, they will not sit idly by, and there is also Su Yu, the governor of the East China Sea who I arranged in Lianyungang, if he goes south, the coastal area of Wu will become the target of his attack. ”
"Oh." Ohashi breathed a sigh of relief, and his tightly held hand slowly loosened.
"I let Yinping stay in Qiantang, it seems to be very dangerous, but it's actually fine." Sun Shao smiled and calmly: "I hope that Wu Guo will attack, so that the silver screen will not be too boring, and he can also make meritorious contributions, not only her queen's position is as stable as Mount Tai, but also can open up the atmosphere for women as officials and generals, but unfortunately, King Wu did not come." ”
Daqiao glanced at Sun Shao and was very satisfied. She had always been worried that Sun Shao would lose Guan Feng after marrying more women, but now it seems that this worry is completely unnecessary. Sun Shao had already realized the possible battles in the harem, so he was arranging for Guan Feng in advance, and then thinking that many soldiers from the Guan family under Sun Shao had now become the backbone of the army, and Guan Feng's position as queen was unshakable. She actually doesn't care much about Guan Feng's status, but her feelings for Guan Fengsheng's son Ah Yu are extraordinary. In Jianye's time, she had already regarded Ah Yu as Sun Shao's stand-in, and poured all her efforts into Ah Yu, Ah Yu was robbed, she was like someone had her backbone removed, and the whole person collapsed.
"By the way, it's time for Ah Yu to give a name." Ohashi reminded.
"I thought about it, my name is Feng, and I will take the word Yuan Hei in the future." Sun Shao smiled: "He is the prince of my Yue Kingdom, and he will inherit my inheritance in the future." ”
"That's good, that's good." Ohashi was happier to hear this than to get any treasure.
"However, the crown prince is not so easy to be." Sun Shao's words changed and became serious: "It is not easy to be a promising king. Mencius said that the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their skin, and empty their bodies, Ah Yu is a good boy, but he is still far from the king of a country, and before I hand over the throne to him, I have to make him suffer, and he will suffer a lot, and sometimes it may even be very dangerous. Mother, I don't know if you and Yinping can understand this, if you are deeply affectionate, you may not understand my approach at that time. ”
When Daqiao heard this, she couldn't help frowning again, but after all, she was a reader, and knew that Mencius's words were reasonable, if you want to become a promising king, this hardship will inevitably have to be eaten, a loving mother is a defeated child, and being too soft-hearted is not the way of parenting, but everyone knows the truth, if you really want to see your heart and endure, whether you can be ruthless, whether you can always insist on being ruthless, that is the difference between success and failure.
Sun Shao looked at Daqiao, Daqiao was also looking at Sun Shao, she heard what Sun Shao meant, when Sun Shao asked Ah Yu to start practicing martial arts, she always felt sorry for the child and blamed Sun Shao for being too ruthless, now look, in fact, Sun Shao's love for the child is not less than her.
Daqiao nodded, but the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he muttered: "You didn't start practicing martial arts so early, aren't you still good now?" ”
Sun Shao was stunned for a moment, he hadn't considered this aspect of the problem. According to Ohashi's doting on him and the family conditions at the time, it seems that he really didn't have many opportunities to practice martial arts, but his skills are really good, not counting the memories he brought, just counting his previous body, it seems that he is also a master.
Am I a natural master?
Seeing Sun Shao's puzzled face, Daqiao thought that he was still thinking about how to explain him, so he said impatiently: "Okay, the child is yours, you can toss as much as you want, I don't care about it in the future." ”
Sun Shao was a little sad when he heard this, sighed, sat beside Daqiao, took her hand and covered it in his palm, stared at Daqiao's eyes, and said softly: "Mother, how can you say that, Yinping and I have never thought like this, you must not misunderstand us." ”
Ohashi also regretted a little, this sentence was inevitably a little too responsible, but she didn't know how to explain it, faintly, she seemed to have some regrets. Ah Yu is good at everything, only one thing is bad, that is, it is not her child, or rather, she lacks nothing now, just lacks a child born by herself, and she always feels a little deficient in her heart.
However, how can he have another child, could it be that a woman who has never given birth to a child in her life is not a complete woman?
"Alas-" Daqiao sighed, held Sun Shao's hand with his backhand, and stroked it gently: "Aman, I just have no intention, don't take it to heart, I ...... I didn't mean that. ”
Sun Shao blinked, he was a little overwhelmed by the complicated eyes of the bridge at this moment. In the past few years, especially after he got married, Daqiao has rarely been as close to him as before, and rarely shows this kind of expression in front of him. In a trance, he has become accustomed to seeing Ohashi as a mother, unlike when he first came to this world, often blurring the boundaries between stepmother and sister, although Ohashi at that time had a bad face, but she was still very young, at least in his eyes she was still young, and in the past two years, he obviously felt that Ohashi was aging at a faster rate, especially after the hostage incident.
Sun Shao's heart swelled with a burst of guilt, and sighed silently, although the matter was handled successfully, but the damage to the bridge was always something he couldn't forgive himself, he thought about it: "Mother, there are many hot springs in Zhuya, which are great for the body, I will accompany you to take a look around in a few days, choose a place with good scenery, and I will build you a manor." ”
"Why do you want to build a manor just for me?" Ohashi said puzzled, a little nervous between the colors: "Me and you...... Isn't it inconvenient for us to be together? ”
"What the hell is there?" Sun Shao smiled: "Isn't my mother not used to swimming in front of outsiders? I'll build you a separate manor, so you can be more free and don't have to worry too much about what you want. Hot springs are a good thing, not only for sickness and health, but also for beauty. This kind of heaven and earth creation was originally born for a beauty like my mother, and it would be a waste not to use it. ”
Daqiao was relieved and said angrily: "There are few serious words, and the joke came to me?" ”
"Uh-" Sun Shao's face was bitter: "I'm a piece of filial piety, okay?" ”
"Filial piety?" Daqiao suddenly remembered something, and glanced at Sun Shao: "If you really think about me, invite your aunt to come and live for a few days, I will have such a sister left, if I can see her, even if it is a bran eater, I am happy." ”
"Hehe...... Sun Shao straightened up, touched his chin and said with a wicked smile: "Mother, is that little vertical son of Zhongying thinking about something again?" Ayu's matter, I haven't settled accounts with him yet. The silver screen is the same, I left the secret soldier to her, just in case, she used it to do this? ”
Daqiao laughed embarrassedly, this matter started by her, if she hadn't forced Guan Feng to do it, how could Guan Feng use secret soldiers. However, judging from Sun Shao's expression, he didn't mean to blame.
"This thing is not easy to do, Bo Ying is now the general of Wu State, Ayu is the crown princess who has not passed through the door, Zhong Ying has come to me again, my aunt is the only hostage, no matter what, it is impossible for her to leave Jianye and come to Zhuya. Mother, you can make it a little difficult for me. ”
When Daqiao heard this, he was also a little embarrassed, and there was no good way to think about it, so he had to shake his head and stop asking. However, when she thought of Xiaoqiao and Zhou Yu's current situation, she was worried again.
"Mother, I have a way." Xiahou Hui's petite figure appeared at the door, and when he saw Daqiao and Sun Shao sitting on their knees, their hands still clasped together, they couldn't help but be stunned, but then they covered it up again, reached out and stroked a lock of hair on their sideburns, and said: "I just saw my aunt busy making soup in the east kitchen, and when I came back, I happened to hear my mother's words, I have a way to let my mother see my aunt." ”
Daqiao withdrew his hand a little embarrassed, and forced a smile: "You should talk about it." ”
Xiahou Hui walked to the other side of the bridge, knelt beside the bridge affectionately, and muttered a few words, the bridge was a little unaccustomed, but after listening to her words, his eyes immediately lit up, and he looked at Xiahou Hui's little face in surprise, and praised: "Yuanrong, you are really a lovely person, such a good idea, why didn't I think of it." She turned her head and looked at Sun Shao reproachfully: "Aman, don't you want your aunt to come?" ”
"What is this, how did I have this idea?" Sun Shao was puzzled.
"That's such a good idea, why don't you use it?" The bridge approached step by step, and suddenly became high-spirited. Sun Shao was at a loss: "What good way do you have, if it really works, of course I welcome it." Although I am still very poor, it should be no problem to entertain my aunt, let alone invite her to accompany my grandmother, even if I build a manor for her, I can afford it. ”
"That's not necessary, just let her live with me." Daqiao pursed his lips and smiled, revealing a playful smile in an instant, and looked at Sun Shao stunned. "Zhongying is not young, you pay attention to which family's daughter is suitable, help him Zhang Luo, can't you let your aunt come when the time comes?"
Sun Shao suddenly realized, this is indeed a good way, no matter how serious Sun Quan is, he will not allow Xiaoqiao to attend Zhou Yin's wedding, but what should Zhou Yu do? He didn't know that the bridge wanted a small bridge to come to the void, and the real purpose was to get Zhou Yu over. He scratched his head, and had to respond vaguely: "Let me take a look first, this is not a trivial matter, how can it be agreed by Zhongying himself." ”
"As long as you have the heart to do it, you can always do it." Ohashi laughed, "I believe in you. ”
"Uh-" Sun Shao's eyes swept Xiahou Hui, making a fierce appearance that he would go back to clean up after a while, and then nodded: "I must do it with my heart." ”
"What to do?" Sun Shangxiang strode in, one of the two female pawns behind him was holding a steaming clay pot, and the other was holding a few bowls, Sun Shangxiang motioned for them to carefully put the clay pot and bowl on the table, and raised his eyebrows proudly: "Queen Mother, King, I invite you to drink soup." I've been up for a day and a night, how about it, it smells good, right? ”
"You know how to make soup?" Sun Shao and Daqiao glanced at each other and their eyes widened.
"What? Can't you? Sun Shangxiang was a little embarrassed by them, and shouted with a stiff neck: "I'm a heroine in the battlefield and a heroine in the kitchen, what's it to make two soups?" Zhu Ya is rich in ingredients, and with Dong Feng's guidance from that miracle doctor, my soup is definitely a big supplement. You taste, you taste, see how it tastes? ”
Sun Shangxiang said as he put two bowls of soup in front of Sun Shao and Daqiao, and warmly invited them to drink the soup. Daqiao picked up the bowl, pinched the spoon with two fingers, scooped some soup to his lips and took a sip, moth frowned, glanced at Sun Shangxiang, and stopped talking. Sun Shangxiang's smile suddenly stiffened, and he hurriedly filled a bowl himself, took a sip, his face changed sharply, and he hurriedly waved his hand to let people pick up the clay pot and bowl and leave, come quickly, go quickly, Sun Shao didn't have time to taste it, she disappeared outside the door.
"What, it doesn't taste good?" Sun Shao asked the bridge curiously.
"Everything else is fine, only one thing is wrong." Ohashi said solemnly: "She probably used the wrong water." ”
"Using the wrong water?" Sun Shao was inexplicable, he had only heard of using the wrong material, but he had never heard of using the wrong water, and the words of the bridge were really incomprehensible.
"Well, it's bitter and astringent, it should be boiled out of seawater."
"Poof-" Sun Shao couldn't help laughing, and Xiahou Hui couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh when he heard it. "Boom", Sun Shangxiang appeared outside the door again, and shouted to Daqiao with a red face: "Sister-in-law, you are now the queen mother, how can you talk like this, you don't save face at all, isn't it just a little salty, as for boiling out of seawater?" ”
Sun Shao couldn't hold back any longer, holding his stomach and falling to the ground laughing. Sun Shangxiang's face was flushed with shame, she stomped her feet, and ran away as if she was flying.
"Why is this tiger obsessed with making soup?" Ohashi smiled and asked puzzledly, "In the past, I was a person who couldn't help the oil bottle when it was poured." ”
Sun Shao was confused, and Xiahou Hui also shook his head with a smile.
After laughing for a while, Sun Shao returned to his room and sat down, Xiahou Hui made him tea with his own hands, and then sat opposite him very obediently, listening quietly, Sun Shao sipped tea while glancing at her, and said after a while: "Yuanrong, what are you worried about?" ”
Xiahou Hui was a little nervous, and after thinking for a moment, he shook his head: "The concubine is not worried about anything. ”
"Alas-" Sun Shao sighed, "Yuanrong, I know that you are used to seeing the competition between wives and concubines, but let me tell you, you are you, you will not be your mother, and I am not your father, you know?" ”
"The concubine knows." Xiahou Hui said in a nasal voice, but he forcibly held back the tears that were about to overflow his eyes and said: "How can my father be side by side with the king." ”
"You......" Sun Shao was about to say more, but when he saw Xiahou Hui's aggrieved appearance, he couldn't bear to say more. Xiahou Hui was born in a wealthy family, when she was born, Cao Ying's great cause had been completed, and Xiahou's family had also become a quasi-clan, and all she heard and witnessed was the open and secret struggle in the inner house of the wealthy family. Her biological mother is Cao Zhen's younger sister, but her father Xiahou Shang doesn't like her mother, he likes another young and beautiful concubine, and when he goes out, he takes that concubine, even if he goes home, he spends most of his time in the concubine's room, and rarely comes to Xiahou Hui's biological mother's room. Xiahou Hui hated that concubine very much at that time, and she even helped her mother come up with ideas to deal with that concubine, but now that she is a concubine herself, she feels the rejection between Daqiao and Guan Feng intentionally or unintentionally, and she understands why her father's concubine wants to compete for favor by all means, because if you don't compete for favor, you will be bullied by others.
Guan Feng sent secret soldiers to help Zhou Yu, she never knew about it, but she accidentally heard about it outside today, and she quickly understood why Guan Feng did it. Guan Feng did this, not because of how much she liked Zhou Yu, but because she was currying favor with Daqiao, she knew that although Daqiao was a stepmother, but in Sun Shao's heart, Daqiao's status was no less than that of her biological mother, and she could guess that Guan Feng did this in the hope of winning over Zhou Yu and forming a common front instead, because Guan Feng clearly felt that she was not her opponent of Xiahou Hui in terms of conspiracy, so she pushed the boat down the river to help Zhou Yu, and it became, not only Daqiao was grateful to her, Zhou Yu would also be grateful to her, no, she also did her best.
She didn't want to fight, she was tired of it, but she couldn't run away, it was a bloodless battle, she couldn't lose it without a fight. However, she also knew that Sun Shao hated this kind of fight, and he had never wanted this kind of fight to happen around him. She knew that she couldn't hide it from Sun Shao, and when she decided to say that way, she was ready to face Sun Shao's reproach.
"Yuanrong, do you know, the world is very big, so big that you can't imagine it." Sun Shao's voice was a little confused and a little empty, as if he was talking about Xiahou Hui, but he didn't seem to be talking about Xiahou Hui: "The East China Sea is big, as big as the Han Dynasty, the South China Sea is big, bigger than the Han Dynasty, what about the West Sea?" The West Sea is bigger than the East China Sea and the South China Sea combined, what is a mere Qian Tang, what is a Zhuya, and what is a Yizhou? There are countless Zhu Ya and countless Yizhou in the world waiting for us to conquer, you are so smart, why do you limit your eyes to one county and one county? Tolerance is great, and no desire is rigid. Yuanrong, I hope you are as your name, be a celebrity, and be a tolerant celebrity. I've talked to you so much about the truth, and I've analyzed the reasons for the rise and fall of the world countless times, don't you still understand my intentions? ”
Xiahou Hui couldn't help crying, she bowed to the ground: "The king, it's the concubine who is stupid and didn't understand the king's deep meaning, please punish the king." ”
"Punishment, punishment, why should I punish you? I let you have the capacity, can I be a person without capacity? Sun Shao leaned over and pulled up Xiahou Hui, reached out to wipe the tears from her face, and said with a smile: "Yuanrong, now that the Wei royal family has a woman from your Xiahou family, and the princess of Shu is also a descendant of your Xiahou family, you can't let me lose to Wei Shu in Yueguo." You must have the mind of the sea, the shrewdness of a businessman, and the management of the world, rather than focusing on small profits. ”
Xiahou Hui nodded embarrassedly, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes: "King, the fifth general seems to have an intentional crush." ”
"Oh?" Sun Shao was very surprised: "Who?" ”
"Naturally, it's the people who need to drink tonic soup."
