In Moling City, since the end of Sun Ce's funeral, Sun Quan has been waiting for news from Lu Meng in his study. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info but Lu Meng's movements were very slow, and he did not return to the city until late at night. Sun Quan had never been so impetuous as he was today, he paced around the study, and even regretted not going in person. Finally, when Sun Quan couldn't bear it anymore, a small school knocked on the door of the study.

"What's the matter?" It was already late at night, and apart from Lu Meng, Sun Quan couldn't think of anything else. However, in order not to let others see through it, he still asked knowingly.

The junior colonel said: "Lord Qi, General Lu Meng asked to see him, and he said that there is something important to report." Subordinates don't dare to specialize, so I came to ask for instructions! ”

"Let him in!" Sun Quan's heart settled, and he sat back in his chair and waited for Lu Meng's report.

"See the lord!" Lu Meng knelt on the ground and lowered his head, for fear that when he was telling a lie, Sun Quan would see through it!

"Get up!" Sun Quan asked lightly, "How are things going?" ”

"This..." Lu Meng hesitated, he didn't know whether to tell the truth or tell a lie.

"What, it's a mess?" Seeing that Lu Meng didn't speak, Sun Quan's face sank, and a fierce momentum pressed over, making Lu Meng almost out of breath!

"The subordinates are incompetent! During the pursuit, Pang Tong was answered, but his subordinates failed to kill him! Lu Meng knelt on the ground in great fear, and the cold sweat on his head was like a stream!

"Hmm!" Sun Quan snorted noncommittally, he didn't blame Lu Meng, with Pang Tong's ability, it was not strange to run away. After thinking for a while, Sun Quan asked, "Pang Tong ran away, what about sister-in-law and Shao'er?" ”

"They..."Lu Meng wiped a cold sweat and said, "They were slashed a few times and fell into the river, so..."

"I don't know if I'm alive or dead, right?" Sun Quan's face was still indifferent, but he had some doubts in his heart. One or two can be said to be accidental, but Sun Ce's family doesn't know life and death, so there is a problem! However, Lu Meng is already destined to get no answer here, and Sun Quan will not ask again!

"Yes!" As the saying goes: be a thief with a weak heart. Lu Meng hadn't practiced to the point where he could talk nonsense with his eyes open, he didn't dare to look at Sun Quan, so he naturally didn't know that Sun Quan already suspected him!

"Forget it, it's providence! Ziming, get up! Sun Quan smiled and asked, "How did those soldiers deal with it?" ”

"Lord Qiqi, I have already killed!" Since he told the first lie, the following lie was naturally untrue, only to hear Lu Meng laugh and say: "How dare I not be unsatisfied with what the lord ordered?" Those soldiers will never appear again! ”

"That's great!" Sun Quan nodded with great satisfaction and said, "If there is nothing else, you can go back and rest first!" ”

"Thank you, my lord, my subordinates are retiring!" Lu Meng's clothes were already soaked, and after listening to Sun Quan's order, he hurriedly left the study as if he had been pardoned.

Looking at Lu Meng's figure of fleeing, Sun Quan felt a haze in his heart, although he didn't believe that Lu Meng would betray him, he knew that there must be something wrong with Lu Meng. However, he was not worried, because he bribed some people around each general to keep an eye on those generals. Of course, the veteran and the people around Sun Ce, he can't buy it!

Lu Meng left, Sun Quan was still sitting in the study, he was still waiting, if Lu Meng really had a problem, someone would definitely come to report it! I don't know how long it took, but I heard a banging sound outside the door, Sun Quan knew that it was a code, so he said in a deep voice: "The door is not closed, come in!" ”

"See the lord!" A dark shadow flashed into the study, and this person was a corpse crawling up from the shore. It turned out that he was slashed by Chen Wu, but he narrowly escaped the key point, and he was the hidden stake that Sun Quan was ambushing beside Lu Meng!

"Are you hurt? Lu Meng cut it? Seeing that the person who came trembled all over, and when he knelt down and saluted, there was still blood dripping on the ground, Sun Quan couldn't help frowning, he thought that Lu Meng's performance just now was because he had discovered a secret pile!

"It's not!" The dark pile said: "I was cut by the person who answered Pang Tong!" Someone came with a sharp knife and attacked behind me, and I narrowly escaped! ”

"Lu Meng really has a problem!" Sun Quan's heart sank when he heard this, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you see clearly who the person who answered Pang Tong is?" ”

"This..."The dark pile hesitated for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "Lord, if it is General Chen Wu, do you believe it?" ”

"Zilie?" Sun Quan groaned: "Since Zilie has appeared, presumably the eldest brother is not dead, no wonder Pang Tong wants to take Shao'er away!" But why did the mother let Pang Tong take the sister-in-law away, did the mother also know that the eldest brother was not dead? Lu Zijing..."

Thinking of his mother, Lu Su, Pang Tong, and Lu Meng uniting to deceive him, Sun Quan's heart ached. Although he was unfavorable to Sun Ce, he was for the foundation of Jiangdong and the great cause of the Sun family, never for himself. Sun Jian taught him since he was a child that for the sake of the family, any child of the family must be ready to sacrifice at any time! But now Sun Ce's sacrifice has made him feel betrayed and separated, can't Sun Ce be sacrificed, only their younger brothers are the objects of sacrifice?

"No!" Sun Quan clasped his hands tightly, his face was hideous, he looked at the dark pile on the ground and said: "Tell the whole story carefully, there must be no omission!" ”

"Yes!" Although his body hurt a lot, the dark pile still started from Lu Meng leading them to find Pang Tong until he was knocked down. It's just that he took Chen Wu a bit, and Sun Ce didn't hear the conversation between Lu Meng, but he didn't dare to add fuel and vinegar to frame Lu Meng!

"Are you saying that the more than 100 dead soldiers brought by Lu Meng did not die, but surrendered?" After listening to the narrative of the dark pile, Sun Quan's eyes were introverted, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Yes!" "When I woke up, there were several more boats by the river, and the people on the boats were wearing the costumes of Jiangdong dead soldiers, and they should have been persuaded by General Chen Wu!" ”

"Nope! Chen Wu doesn't have such ability! Sun Quan sighed: "There is only one person in the world who can make the dead soldiers of Jiangdong willing to serve, and that is Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong!" ”

"The eldest prince? Isn't he dead? After becoming Sun Quan's person, he gradually entered the core of power and knew a lot of secrets. But the whole Jiangdong knows that Sun Ce is dead. If it is said that Sun Ce is not dead now, there will be a huge turmoil in Jiangdong, and Sun Quan's status and prestige will be gone!

"How can my good brother die so easily?" Sun Quan stood up and walked to the side of the dark pile, patted him on the shoulder and asked with a smile: "How is it, General Chen Wu's sword skills are good!" Are your injuries serious? ”

"Thank you for your concern!" Although he was a little unable to adapt to Sun Quan's sudden change of topic, the dark pile still said very gratefully: "My subordinates have been stabbed, and they will be fine after a few days of cultivation!" ”

"Good!" Sun Quan smiled: "If there is nothing else, go back first!" Remember, don't leak a word about what you saw tonight, otherwise your whole clan will be destroyed, understand? ”

Seeing Sun Quan say Sen Ran's words with a smile on his face, he secretly said: "My subordinates understand, I was patrolling the riverside tonight, and when I met a water bandit, I was slashed, and that group of water bandits has been wiped out!" ”

"Clever!" Sun Quan said: "You have a meritorious service in exterminating the water bandits, and I will send someone to send the reward to your house later!" ”

"Thank you, my lord!" The stake bowed, opened the door and prepared to leave. Suddenly, he felt a pain behind him, and saw a knife tip exposed in his chest. He looked at his chest blankly, then turned his head again, looked at Sun Quan and asked, "Lord, why?" ”

"Only the dead don't divulge secrets! I'm telling you so much just to make you die blindly! Hasn't anyone ever told you that if you know too much, you're easy to be killed? Sun Quan held the hilt of the knife with a hideous face, but his tone was very indifferent.

"Heh... cough..."The dark pile was speechless, but his eyes were full of nostalgia for the world! Sun Quan slowly pulled the long knife out of his body, the glint in his eyes gradually disappeared, and the person fell to the ground, but his eyes were still wide open, and his face was hideous.

"Don't blame me, blame you for knowing too many things you shouldn't know! However, don't worry, you died for me, and I will settle your family properly! Go with peace of mind! Sun Quan squatted down and brushed his hand over the eyes of the dark pile. Not to mention, the hideous expression of the dark pile really eased, and the unwilling eyes were closed!

"Someone!" Sun Quan suddenly yelled, and several guards hurriedly rushed into the study.

"Lord, what's wrong?" Seeing the corpse on the ground, several guards were shocked, they could see that this person was killed by Sun Quan, and they thought that this person was an assassin!

Sun Quan said lightly: "This general was patrolling the riverside tonight and met a water bandit. His small group was all killed, and he was the only one left to report it. Now he is seriously injured and dead. Carry him down and prepare him for a thick burial! ”

"Yes!" Although it is suspected that this person is Sun Quan's murderer, as a guard, he naturally knows what to ask and what not to ask. A few people carried the corpse and left the study! Sun Quan ordered someone to prepare a reward and a bereavement pension and sent it to the house of the dark pile!

The night was so deep, and the sky was as dark as ink, and the stars were shining. Standing in the courtyard, a cold wind blew, Sun Quan felt that he was so lonely, maybe this is the so-called high place is unbearable! However, there was a trace of warmth in his heart, because he found that he still had some human touch, not a cold-blooded beast, even if he didn't know his human touch, and even everyone thought he was a beast!

"Big brother, for the sake of the family, for the great cause of Jiangdong, the younger brother can only do so much for you! I hope you can be happy and happy, and you won't waste the hard work of your little brother..."Sun Quan stood with his sword in his hand and sighed to the sky. It wasn't until the sky gradually turned white and a round of red light slowly climbed into the sky that he strode out of the courtyard, and with the fatigue of a sleepless night, he summoned everyone to deal with government affairs. A new day has begun again, and no one has mentioned last night's events again, and even the names of Sun Ce and Sun Shao have gradually been forgotten by Jiangdong people...
