Chapter 46: Wishful Thinking

"I'm going, I'm going!" Sun Luban tugged on Sun Shao's sleeve, pouted his buttocks, kicked his legs hard on the ground, and was dragged forward by Sun Shao to slide, it looked like a new type of plow, and the ground in the Yue Palace's palace was almost shoveled up by her, how ugly and ugly the image was, anyway, it had nothing to do with the noble princess.

Zhou Xun's face was as red as a monkey's buttocks, and he followed behind awkwardly, not knowing whether to come forward to persuade or just look at it. He went home and said that Sun Shao might send troops to the South China Sea, but Sun Luban came to the spirit, pulled him to the Yue Palace, and asked to follow Sun Shao to the South China Sea to see and understand. Zhou Xun also wanted to go, he hoped that Sun Luban could say a few words to Sun Shao for him and let him follow behind to fight a few battles, but he never expected Sun Luban to use such a method, stalking Sun Shao's sleeve, Sun Shao would not let go if she didn't agree.

God, that's what a princess should do. Zhou Xun was embarrassed, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Zhou Boying, do you still care about your wife?" Sun Shao couldn't bear it anymore, and yelled with a white face: "You're not afraid of being embarrassed, I'm still afraid of being embarrassed." ”

"Who are you throwing away?" Sun Luban took advantage of Sun Shao's stand, jumped up, threw himself on Sun Shao's back, put his arms around Sun Shao's neck with both hands, wrapped his two legs around Sun Shao's waist, and said viciously: "If you don't agree, I will entangle you for the rest of your life." ”

Sun Shao was strangled by her, and wanted to break her away with his hands, but he didn't dare to use force, for fear of breaking her little arm. With this hesitation, he was already a little out of breath. Zhou Xun saw his staggering appearance, for fear that he would be strangled to death by Sun Luban, so he rushed over and wanted to pull Sun Luban away, but Sun Luban glared: "You dare!" Frightened, he retreated.

"Big ...... Big Tiger, you ...... You come down first, okay? Sun Shao opened his mouth wide, his tongue was about to spit out, this little girl didn't look very good, but she really had strength, and she didn't know how heavy she was, these two little arms were like iron, and he was about to suffocate.

"If you promise me, I'll let you go." Sun Luban said uneasily.

Sun Shao's legs trembled, he didn't care too much, he nodded again and again, Sun Luban was not at ease, and confirmed it again, and then let go of his hand. As soon as she jumped down, Sun Shao sat on the ground with a plop, covering his neck and coughing.

"Ahh You want to strangle your big brother, don't you? ”

Sun Luban turned to Sun Shao, and saw that Sun Shao's face was purple, and he looked like he was about to lose his breath, only then did she realize that the situation was serious, she looked at her arm, and said suspiciously: "No, do I have so much strength?" ”

"You-" Guan Feng was so angry that he couldn't speak, bent down, dragged Sun Shao on his back, and threw off his stride into the apse. Sun Luban didn't think too much, and followed him into the hall, and saw Sun Shao leaning on Guan Feng, Guan Feng gave him a smooth breath. Sun Luban stuck out his tongue, cautiously approached Sun Shao, tried his best to pretend to be very quiet, did not speak, and blinked his eyes first: "Big brother, you ...... You okay? ”

"Uh......h cough cough cough ......" Sun Shao coughed a few times, his face was a little better, and he stretched out his hand to point at Sun Luban: "You...... Bring me a knife! ”

Sun Luban was so frightened that he jumped back, and shook his two hands continuously: "Big brother, I really didn't mean to, I didn't want to strangle you." ”

"Bring me a knife!" Sun Shao patted the case and screamed. A Lang official with angry eyebrows immediately ran next to him, took out a long knife and sent it to Sun Shao, Sun Shao took the knife in his hand, and threw it in front of Sun Luban. Sun Luban's face turned pale suddenly, looking at Sun Shao at a loss, Guan Feng was a little surprised, and was about to speak, Zhou followed three steps and made two steps to rush in, plopped down in front of Sun Shao, and kowtowed again and again: "The king, the king, the princess is young and ignorant, she has offended the king, please forgive the king, spare her life, and the minister is willing to take it on her behalf." ”

"Huh? It's not that you don't like the big tigers, do you? I'll kill you for you, won't I just give you back your freedom? Sun Shao burst out laughing, raised his leg and kicked Zhou Xun gently. Zhou Xun didn't care about joking at any time, but he only knew that he begged again and again, and he saw blood on his forehead in a few clicks. Sun Luban only then knew that things were getting bigger, her mouth was flattened, and tears slipped down, she stepped forward, knelt down side by side with Zhou Xun, and helped Zhou Xun up: "Husband, it was me who caused the trouble, the eldest brother wanted to kill me, so I took it myself, I looked down on you before, I was wrong, woo woo woo ......"

"Crying fart?" Sun Shao rolled his eyes and knocked on the shoulder of the big tiger with the back of the knife: "Get up, let the eldest brother see how your sword skills are, if you have the strength to stay in the air, it won't work, if the martial arts are really good, I will consider whether to take you to the South China Sea." ”

Sun Luban looked at Sun Shao in surprise, unable to believe his ears. Zhou Xun was also stupid, Mu looked at Sun Shao in a daze, even Guan Feng didn't bother for a while, looked at Sun Shao with an impatient face, and then looked at Sun Luban with tears on his face, but couldn't help but smile.

Sun Luban was the first to react, she jumped up, picked up the knife, put on a posture, and practiced in the palace. In order to satisfy Sun Shao, she did everything she could to show all her abilities, and for a while, she was coquettish and drunk.

"How?" Sun Shao smiled, stabbed Guan Feng on the side, and squeezed his eyes: "My Sun family also has a tiger girl." ”

"It's not today that I only found out that your grandson family has a tiger girl." Guan Feng glared at Sun Shao angrily, and touched his neck distressedly: "But this is too tiger, it almost broke your neck, will you still laugh when the time comes?" ”

Sun Shaohou stroked his neck in fear, and said to Sun Luban, who was panting and standing in front of him with a proud face: "Big Tiger, why is your strength so great?" ”

Sun Luban stuck out his tongue embarrassedly: "My aunt taught me, I have to practice handstand every day, and now I can hold on to a quarter of an hour." ”

Sun Shao was dumbfounded. Sun Shangxiang once asked him, saying that no matter what, women's strength is smaller than that of men, and they suffer a lot of losses when fighting, so how can they train their strength a little more? Sun Shao taught her a trick, static training, especially handstands, leaning the body against the wall, supporting the ground with both hands, and staying still, this method is the most significant move to train the strength of the upper limbs, but the training is very boring, very hard, and there are not many people who can persevere. Sun Shangxiang practiced it later, and felt that the effect was indeed obvious, and now her Flying Tiger Battalion regards this as basic training. Sun Shao didn't expect Sun Luban to do the same, and he could hold on to a quarter of an hour. A quarter of an hour in this era is equivalent to half an hour in later generations, not to mention a woman, even a strong man can hold on to a quarter of an hour.

No wonder her arms, though not thick, were as strong as iron rods. Sun Shao glanced at Zhou Xun with pity, can this body and bones be able to eat?

"Big brother, how is my knife technique?" Sun Luban jumped and looked at Sun Shao with three points of expectation.

"Skilled is very skilled, but it is useless, luck and strength are not understood, and it is blindly practiced by myself at a glance." Sun Shao nodded appreciatively, reached out to call Sun Luban to him, and pinched her shoulder. Sun Luban's shoulders are very strong. Sun Shao looked her up and down again, and finally said: "You kid, if you train well, you will definitely be a tiger again when you go to the battlefield." ”

"That'...... Will you take me to the South China Sea? Sun Luban's eyes lit up, and he pulled Sun Shao's sleeve and begged: "Big brother, you can train me." ”

"Uh-" Sun Shao rolled his eyes and said with a wry smile: "I can teach you martial arts, but it's not up to me to decide whether I can take you to the South China Sea." It's not that I won't take you there, but you must first ask your father for his wishes, right? It's very dangerous to start a war, no matter how high your martial arts are, you can't be invincible, maybe a stray arrow can kill you. If you have three long and two short, how can I explain to your father and mother? ”

"They don't care about me, I am a father at home, and a husband at home." Sun Luban squeezed his eyes at Zhou Xun with a big grin, and said, "Husband, oh?!" You must have my back. ”

Zhou Xun smacked his lips helplessly, how dare he say a word: "If Your Highness agrees, I am willing to protect the princess and follow His Highness on the expedition." ”

"You want to go too?" Sun Shao was surprised.

Zhou Xun hesitated for a moment: "Zhuge Ke has already rushed to Qian Tang. ”

Sun Shao nodded, he understood. Sun Deng was going to Jiaozhou, but the opportunity to lead the troops was not given to Zhou Xun, but to Zhuge Ke. He sat up, pondered for a moment, raised his head again, and looked at Zhou Xundao: "You are still the general of the Wu State now, it doesn't seem appropriate to follow me on the expedition, right?" Did Sun Deng agree to your accompaniment? If you don't ask King Wu, no matter what, Dahu is also a princess, this is not a trivial matter. If something happens, I don't care, I'm just afraid that your future in Wu will be ruined. ”

Zhou Xun was silent, he had already anticipated his future in the Wu Kingdom. Now Sun Quan is not in good health, and Sun Deng has been in charge of the main government affairs, and Sun Deng, the crown prince, is actually half of the king of Wu. It was his idea to cooperate with Sun Shao to go to Jiaozhou, but Sun Deng gave Zhuge Ke the opportunity to lead the troops, obviously excluding him from his cronies. Although he didn't have time to understand why Sun Deng did this, but the facts were in front of him, and he couldn't help but be a tiger more, if he couldn't catch Sun Shao's line this time, then he would really fail at both ends. Although he felt ashamed, he still expressed his intention to move closer to Sun Shao.

However, Sun Shao didn't know whether he didn't see his situation, or didn't want to accept him, in short, he seemed to politely refuse his request.

Zhou Xun is not the kind of person who is so thick-skinned that he is fearless, he still has the arrogance of a scholar more or less, as soon as Sun Shao revealed this meaning, he didn't know how to say it anymore, so he had to sit there silently. Sun Luban didn't care, she pestered Sun Shao, pouted and said: "I don't care, you promised me just now, you are the king of Yue, you can't talk and don't count." ”

Sun Shao was helpless, he scratched his sideburns: "You don't care?" You don't care anymore, you have to ask Zigao's opinion, right? ”

"Will he just say yes?" Sun Luban's eyes rolled.

"He just said yes." Sun Shao nodded and said, "From now on, you can go to the Flying Tiger Camp to participate in training, as long as Zigao promises you to go with the army, I will take you to war." However, I can say ugly things in front, if you can't pass the assessment of the Flying Tiger Battalion and become a qualified female pawn, I won't take you there, just like Bo Ying did in the Destruction Battalion. ”

"You can rest assured." Sun Luban clenched his fist confidently: "If I go to my aunt, I will definitely be able to pass the assessment of the Flying Tiger Battalion." ”

"Not necessarily." Sun Shao smiled sinisterly: "It's not that you can become a qualified warrior if you have a lot of strength." ”

"Humph!" Sun Luban's ignorant man fearlessly raised his chin, disdainful, threw down Zhou Xun and walked away, and went straight to Sun Shangxiang's mansion in a hurry.

Zhou Xun and Sun Shao sat opposite each other, silent and silent, and the originally lively hall suddenly became unusually quiet. Guan Feng saw that they seemed to have something to say, so he retreated with someone in a witty way.

Changle Palace, the bridge held a fan, slowly walked along a bay of clear ponds, the small bridge followed closely behind, with tears on his face, looking at the bridge with blank eyes. Neither of them wore clogs, but only thick foot clothes, and walked slowly along the clean and round cobblestone path. These stones are different from ordinary stones, not only smooth and round, but also colorful, as if intentionally or unintentionally put together a pattern of different colors, but if you look closely, it is chaotic.

"Ayu, that kid still can't turn the corner?" The bridge was tired of walking, sat down by the pool, picked up a little fish food from the basin in the hands of the palace maid, and with a wave of his wrist, the fish food floated into the water, causing a circle of ripples on the calm water. A few leisurely little fish quickly swam over, spit out a few bubbles, swallowed the fish food into their mouths, and then flicked their tails, made a few splashes, and dived into the shade again.

"Hmm." Xiaoqiao replied vaguely, and said to himself: "It's all because I was confused for a while, so many disputes have happened, and I still regret it when I think about it." Sister, I know it's wrong, so help me. ”

Daqiao glanced at her: "Am I not going to help you?" But who would have thought that Aman's child had always listened to me, but this time he was a little screwed, so he could talk badly, but he refused to let go. Alas, I see, he is so angry that he can't figure it out for a while, you give me some time, I will persuade him, it should be useful. She looked around, lowered her voice and persuaded again: "Don't you know him yet, if you don't care about it, how can you be so angry?" Now although he has two women, Guan Feng and Xiahou Hui, how can these two women be compared with Ayu? Whether it's Guan Feng or Xiahou Hui, they all came from marriage, what kind of relationship did they have, how could it be compared to Ayu growing up with him? It's just, alas, what a good thing to grind. ”

Ohashi sighed and shook his head helplessly.

Xiaoqiao Dai frowned, and said tentatively: "Sister, do you mean that Aman still has feelings for Ayu?" It's just that I like it tightly, so I hate it deeply? ”

"That's what I guessed, but I really don't know what he thinks." Daqiao stepped on the multicolored stone under his feet, and sighed again, "No matter how difficult it was before, as long as I said it, he would do it, but this time ......" She shook her head, and the golden step in her hair sparkled in the sun.

"But, sister, if we can't get a letter of approval, we can only go back to Jianye." Xiaoqiao turned to the bridge, knelt down in front of the bridge, pillowed his head on the bridge's lap, looked at the water that gradually calmed down, and said worriedly: "We came to Qiantang on the grounds of Zhongying's wedding, and now that the wedding is over, we should also go back." If we don't return within the time limit, the king will inevitably be suspicious, and if Aman still refuses to forgive us, we won't be able to rely on Yue Guo, wouldn't it be ......?"

"You're still worried about your property in Jianye?" Daqiao glared at her unhappily: "You, you can't forget the calculation at any time, but the calculation comes and goes, what do you end up with?" Don't worry, even if Aman doesn't accept you, it won't make you lose money. My annex in Zhuya is several times larger than here, so I'll give you half of it when the time comes. ”

Xiaoqiao laughed awkwardly: "Sister, I'...... I don't think so, I just think Lai is a little boring in Yueguo. ”

"It's boring, I think you're very interesting." Ohashi snorted and turned his head away, no longer understanding the small bridge. Xiaoqiao was very embarrassed, and lay there, saying no, and not walking.

"If you really want to go south, I will tell Aman to go to Zhuya, and you will go with me when the time comes." Daqiao didn't look at Xiaoqiao, and said lightly: "After living in Zhuya for a while, slowly, he will probably be able to untie the knot." ”

"Ugh." Xiaoqiao was relieved, since Daqiao invited them to Zhuya, she didn't have to worry about staying or going.

"Let Ayu accompany me, I'm always stuffy in the house, and I'll get sick." As soon as Daqiao thought of Zhou Yu, his thin eyebrows trembled, "Let's just say that I miss her." ”

"Whoa." Xiaoqiao nodded happily. Daqiao summoned Zhou Yu into the palace, and there will naturally be more opportunities to meet Sun Shao in the future, which may be beneficial to untie the knot between them.

Zhou Yin strode over, stood on the opposite side of the pool and took a look, then laughed loudly: "Mother, auntie, where are you here." ”

Xiaoqiao glanced at him, and saw that his eyebrows were dancing, looking very excited, not as solemn as his identity should be, so he lowered his face and reprimanded unhappily: "What are you doing with your eyebrows, this is Changle Palace, not the streets and alleys of Jianye, let you come nonsense." Your aunt can tolerate you, but when others see it, won't it make your aunt despised? ”

Zhou Yin was angry when he saw Xiaoqiao, and suddenly became a little more disciplined, he walked quickly around the pool, and saluted respectfully to the bridge: "Changle Weiwei Chenyin, meet the Queen Mother." ”

Looking at Zhou Yin's serious appearance, Daqiao couldn't help laughing, glanced at Xiaoqiao and said: "Okay, you want to train your son to go back to your own house to train, is it comfortable to make my palace lifeless?" Zhongying, don't pay attention to your grandmother. Come, sit down beside me, and tell me what pleases you, and make you happy. ”

Zhou Yin glanced at the small bridge timidly, went around to the other side of the bridge, and didn't dare to sit, but his body was obviously much more relaxed. He leaned into the ear of the bridge and said excitedly: "Auntie, I may be going on an expedition." ”

"On the march?" Daqiao raised his eyebrows, his eyes flowed, and he showed a naughty look in an instant: "Who did you deceive?" ”

"What do you mean by cheating?" Zhou Yin stiffened his neck: "This Changle Guard is greedy for many people." ”

"In that case, why wouldn't you want to do it? Isn't it too much? Ohashi quipped.

"No, no, no." Zhou Yin shook his head again and again: "Am I the kind of person who only has money in his eyes?" My eldest brother and aunt rewarded me so much, and with the gifts I received for this wedding, I won't be able to use them up in my next life. I want to make a contribution, a manly man, how can I be with a woman every day......"

Before Zhou Yin finished speaking, he saw that the two women in front of him were wrinkling their eyebrows, and immediately knew that they had lost their words, and hurriedly laughed with a smile: "Auntie, mother, I don't dislike you, I mean that...... The famous saying of Ma Fubo, the husband should fight on the battlefield, how can the horse leather shroud die on the bed, the hands of children, you say? ”

When Xiaoqiao heard this, he took two steps and twisted Zhou Yin's cheek at a lightning speed: "Bah, bah!" Do you know what you're talking about, you stinky mouth? Why are these unlucky words at the beginning of your mouth? ”

Zhou Yin was pinched by her, and quickly broke away from her hand, jumped to the side, covered her mouth and shouted: "Mother, you said that you want this to be Changle Palace, and you want to talk about some rules, but how can you pinch me?" I'm a guard lieutenant, and I have a hundred and ten Lang officers under me, if they see me, how can I get involved? ”

"Hey, you little idiot, now you know your identity?" Xiaoqiao was so angry that her eyebrows raised, and she was about to twist it again, but Daqiao hurriedly grabbed her: "Okay, okay, it's not too late to wait for Zhongying to finish saying and then teach a lesson." Zhong Ying, tell me quickly, who do you recommend to replace this Changle Guard? ”

"I didn't recommend it, I just told my eldest brother that I wanted to go on the expedition." Zhou Yin hid far away and said: "I have already told Ding Feng of the Destroying Blade Battalion that I will be a leader in the Destroying Blade Battalion, and I will be promoted after making meritorious contributions." The eldest brother agreed, saying that after finding a suitable candidate, he would let me go. ”

Ohashichi frowned: "What, there is a big war?" Even the Destroyer Battalion has to go to battle? ”

The Destroying Front Battalion is Sun Shao's Praetorian Guard, Sun Shao has rarely gone into battle in person now, and he is not even on the front line with the Destroying Battalion, and the Destroying Battalion is now more of a reserve and the task of officer training, but listening to what Zhou Yin meant just now, it seems that the Destroying Battalion also has the opportunity to participate in the war, and there must be a big war.

"I'm going to the south." Zhou Yin said excitedly: "Yuenan Taishou Wei Ping was defeated by the attack of Linyi State, and he has given up Yuenan County and fled to Zhuya, the eldest brother wants to take revenge, not only to recapture Yuenan County, but also to seek justice from Funanguo, this battle will definitely not be small." ”

"Get justice?" The bridge and the small bridge are a little surprised, this war is a war, how can there be any justice.

"Not bad." Zhou Yin straightened his chest: "The eldest brother said, the merchant killed by Funan is a merchant from my Yue country, so this matter is not only a matter of Wu State, but also a matter of my Yue country." The eldest brother not only wants to help Nanguo hand over the murderer and compensate for the losses, but also wants them to ensure the safety of the lives and property of the merchants of the Yue Kingdom in the future, if they can't agree, then the army of my Yue Kingdom will take revenge on itself. Zhou Yin stopped and counted with his fingers: "The envoy will set off in these two days, according to the time, if the king of Funan does not agree to the eldest brother's conditions, then the big war should break out between September and October." Hehe, this battle will definitely not end without half a year. I estimate that there will be half a month at most, and the army will be moved to Zhuya to stand by. ”

(To be continued)
