"Not feasible?" Sun Quan looked at Sun Deng, who had his lips closed, and asked rhetorically.

"Not feasible." Sun Deng nodded vigorously: "Erchen feels that this strategy is faithful and suspicious of putting his father in an embarrassing place." ”

"Oh?" Sun Quan sat up in surprise, raised his hand to let Sun Deng sit beside him, picked up a hair on Sun Deng's shoulder, handed it to Gu Li's hand, and then patted it gently, as if to dust off Sun Deng. Sun Deng's chest swelled with emotion, his mouth moved, and then he calmed down again.

The changes in his expression all fell in Sun Quan's eyes, and Sun Quan smiled faintly: "Tell me, how do you look faithful, and how do you put me in an embarrassing place." ”

"Whoa." Sun Deng replied respectfully: "According to the opinion of the sons, his letter must not only be given to his father, but also to the ears of Zhu Lu, Gu Lu and others in other ways, if the father acts according to the policy, then they are grateful not to the father, but to the king of his Yue, if the father does not follow the policy, then the father will become a person who is stingy in the eyes of the families, and the families will inevitably envy the treatment of the families, regardless of the righteousness of the monarch and the ministers." It is that no matter how my father disposes of it, it will cause the monarch and ministers of my Wu State to be separated. ”

Sun Quan nodded silently, looking at Sun Deng's eyes full of relief and appreciation, seeing that Sun Deng's heart was hot, and he couldn't help but puff up his chest. What son doesn't want to get a satisfied look from his father? Although Sun Deng has experienced a lot of things, he is only a fourteen-year-old boy after all, and the reason why he hates Sun Quan is because Sun Quan abandoned him first, and he works hard, in fact, he still hopes to be recognized by Sun Quan. Now that he's got it all, how can he not be proud.

"Zigao, I am very happy that you were not deceived by him. Zigao, I'm not as good as him, but I want you to surpass him. ”

"Father......" Sun Deng nodded a little excitedly, with a somewhat nasal voice. Suddenly, he felt a little guilty, he was actually deceived by Sun Shao, and he was the enemy of his biological father, what a stupid move.

"So what do you think we should do about it?" Sun Quan asked quietly, he had been asking Sun Deng how to deal with it, and pretending to be a loser easily aroused Sun Deng's competitive and protective young man's heart. Once Sun Deng thinks that he is a victim, then the influence of what Sun Shao has done before will slowly weaken, and even become another reaction.

It's just that Sun Quan feels a little sad, as the king of Wu, how many heroes and heroes have been defeated under his hands, even characters like Cao Ying and Liu Bei can't do anything to him, in the end, he still has to use this method on his son, the reason is just some of Sun Shao's very casual actions. He was suddenly a little worried, would these preparations he had been planning about be easily cracked by Sun Shao at that time, and then he would fight back and push himself into a deeper trap?

For a while, Sun Quan was not confident and was dazed. Fortunately, Sun Deng only cared about his plan and did not notice this.

"The ministers think that this policy can be handed over to the ministers for consultation, one can test their minds, and the other can also make his sinister intentions public, I Jiangdong is full of talents, there will be no shortage of far-sighted people, if the ministers think that it is impossible, then naturally there is no need for the father to bear the criticism, if the ministers think it is feasible, then they can also consider it, weigh each other, and not get out of control. In this way, success or failure will not affect the sage of the father, but can open up the way to identify the hearts of the people in Jiangdong. ”

"Good." Sun Quan patted Sun Deng's shoulder with great satisfaction: "Zigao, you have really grown up." ”

"Father, this is the idea of Zhuge Jin's father and son, and the son is just relaying." Sun Deng hurriedly took a step back and bowed in reply.

"There is merit but not residence, and there are people who are the appearance of masters." Sun Quan nodded again and again, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, it seemed that it was right to put Zhuge Jin, the father and son, by Sun Deng's side. From the beginning, he expected that Zhuge Jin's father and son would not agree to this plan - obviously, this plan was very unfavorable to the Huaisi courtiers. "Zhuge Jin taught me well, and I am very happy. Zigao, how about letting you be your young master? ”

Sun Deng was very happy, Zhuge Jin's father and son were his cronies, and rewarding Zhuge Jin as the prince's young master was equivalent to enhancing his strength.

"Zhuge Ke is talented, but it's a pity that he's too young, let him go out to practice in a few years." Sun Quan twisted his beard and nodded frequently: "Zigao, you have to pay more attention to talents, I heard that Buqi's two sons are good, you have the opportunity to have more contact with them." ”

Sun Deng understood and knew that Buqi's son was false, and it was true that he should deal with Buqi. Bu Qi and Zhuge Jin are the same as Huai Si, after making meritorious contributions in Jiaozhou, now there are more than 10,000 elite soldiers in their hands, stationed in the border of Jingjiao, and Mrs. Bu has no son, this is a force worth wooing. What's more, Sun Quan asked him to befriend Bu Qi, which was purely for him, and it can be considered that Sun Quan was paving the way for him to take over.

Sun Denggao left happily. He told Sun Quan's meaning to Zhuge Jin and his son, and Zhuge Jin and his son were also very happy, it was obvious that Sun Quan began to reuse them, the outsiders of Huaisi nationality, in order to prevent the Jiangdong family from becoming big.

Sun Quan entrusted Sun Deng to convene the ministers and published Sun Shao's book, the ministers had their own hearts and discussions, but the Gu family and the Lu family, who were on the cusp of the storm, were not easy to speak, on the contrary, they could only avoid suspicion, and the Zhu family and the Zhang family were not good to say anything, especially Zhang Wen, he was criticized by Sun Shao, and it was even more difficult to say anything at this time. Of course, with his cleverness, he knew Sun Shao's intentions, and he was not excited at all, but waited for Sun Quan's result very quietly.

It was at this time that he met Zhuge Jun.

When Zhang Wen went to Shu State, he and Zhuge Liang hit it off at first sight, in his words, if there is anyone in Shu who can be called a capable minister, then Zhuge Liang must be in the first place. This sentence actually offended Liu Bei and Guan Yu intentionally or unintentionally, because now Liu Bei's most trusted person is not Zhuge Liang, but Guan Yu. Guan Yu, as the general of Shu State, can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand, although Zhuge Liang is the prime minister, he is still below Guan Yu. When Zhang Wen later met Liu Bei, he intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the heroic deeds of Guan Yu and Sun Shao joining forces to break the army and behead the generals in Nanyang, after which Liu Bei hesitated for a long time and made a decision to let the crown prince Liu Chan marry the daughter of the former general Zhang Fei.

Although Guan Yu is nervous, he still understands the meaning of this move, he can't blame Liu Bei, but because of this, the relationship with Zhuge Liang has become worse, in his opinion, this is Zhuge Liang influencing Liu Bei through Zhang Wen. This move can only make the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Zhang Wen closer, so this time Zhuge was ordered to go to Yueguo, and when he passed through Jianye, he specially came to visit Zhang Wen, and his biological brother Zhuge Jin was still behind.

Zhang Wen and Zhuge Jun were very affectionate as soon as they met. Waiting for Zhuge to explain his intentions, Zhang Wen was very curious: "You Shu and Yue have cooperation?" ”

"yes." Zhuge Jun said with a smile: "King Yue has a plan, to develop a very powerful machine, he is short of manpower, so he wants to join forces with my Shuzhong, they contribute money and land, we contribute a part of the people and money, after success, according to the amount of dividends invested." He paused, and then said: "We have received news, it seems that Wei Guo has also received an invitation, and is selecting talents, not to mention sending them to Yue State." Why, Wu Guo didn't receive an invitation? ”

Zhang Wen shook his head, and said in his heart Some time ago, the uncle and nephew of the Sun family almost fought, how could there be such cooperation. However, Wei Shu sent personnel, and if Wu Guo stayed out of the matter, not to mention the dividends in the future, it would be a very bad thing for outsiders to see that the Sun family's uncle and nephew were not compatible. Last time, the uncle and nephew of the Sun family turned their faces, Cao Ying and Liu Bei were all in the Chen Bian military realm, and their sinister intentions are self-evident, with the first time, do you know if there will be a second time?

"What kind of machine is it? Can it make you Shu and Wei flock to it? ”

"This ...... I don't know very well. Zhuge Jun smirked and shook his head, if Wu Guo also sent someone to participate, of course he could get a little bit of information, Wu Guo didn't participate, he wouldn't have this interest. Originally, Sun Shao invited his sister-in-law to go, but Zhuge Liang thought that it was inconvenient for the women's family to go out, so he sent him instead. According to my sister-in-law, this machine is very difficult, but if it can be successfully developed, then the impact will be very huge, and it is worth investing considerable manpower and material resources.

Zhang Wen knew that Zhuge was lying, and he didn't want to ask again, so he diverted the topic and talked about the clairvoyance developed by Zhuge Liang. Zhuge is an honest man, and he said very honestly that the clairvoyance developed by Zhuge Liang was inspired by Sun Shao, and the clairvoyance developed by Sun Shao is much better than that developed by Zhuge Liang. Judging from the comprehensive news from various channels, in the next few years, Yue Guo will still maintain considerable advantages in these aspects, and it is precisely because of this consideration that Zhuge Liang suggested that Liu Bei and Sun Shao cooperate and send them to participate in the research and development of this machinery.

Zhang Wen didn't say anything, he knew about Yue Guo sending a bell to Sun Quan, although he didn't see the clock with his own eyes, but he heard that the timing of this bell is much more accurate than a leaky pot and an hourglass or something, and the institutions inside are very complicated, Sun Quan sent Shang Fangling to study it for a long time, but he still didn't understand the truth in it.

"You go and meet your brother and tell him the news." Zhang Wen said to Zhuge Jun.

Zhuge agreed, even if Zhang Wen didn't care about him, he would also say it to Zhuge Jin. Before coming, Zhuge Liang told him that this matter is not only related to interests, but also to reputation, and Zhuge Jin came forward to inform Sun Quan of this news, which will make Zhuge Jin's status in Sun Quan's mind go to a higher level.

After Zhuge Jin heard the news, he quickly understood the meaning, and he immediately found an opportunity to tell Sun Deng about it, and then Sun Deng relayed it to Sun Quan. Sun Quan hated itchy, and said casually, since there is such a thing, you can discuss with Sun Shao, the king of Yue, to see if our Wu Kingdom can also join in, if you can, send a group of craftsmen nearby.

Sun Deng immediately complied and discussed the matter with Sun Song, the head of Zongzheng, who was on an envoy in Wu, and Zhou Yin, the guard of Changle. Sun Song admitted that there was indeed such a thing, but the reason why Wu Guo was not invited was because the two sides were at odds with each other during that time, and there was no possibility of cooperation. Sun Deng didn't say anything, but expressed his willingness to join the cooperation. Sun Song promised to go back and ask for instructions, but the king of Yue went to sea to fight, and there may not be a reply for a while, and Wu Guo can select personnel first, and participate as soon as there is a reply. Sun Song finally comforted Sun Deng and said that this matter cannot be completed in a day or two, you can know how difficult it is from him mobilizing so many people, even if it is not too late to wait for another half a year. Anyway, if you can't write two Sun characters in one stroke, Wu Yue is still a family after all.

Sun Deng smiled.

Then Zhou Yin quickly made him unable to laugh, and he told Sun Deng that Zhou Yu was sick, very sick, and this kiss would probably not be able to get married for a while.

Sun Deng was in a hurry. Since he glanced at Zhou Yu in Sun Shao's mansion five years ago, he was attracted by Zhou Yu, at that time he didn't understand the relationship between men and women, he just liked Zhou Yu, liked to listen to Zhou Yu talk about some stories read in books, liked Zhou Yu to talk about poetry, as he grew older, his feelings for Zhou Yu slowly changed, from pure like to hope possession. He has been looking forward to growing up faster, being able to perform the crown ceremony as soon as possible, and being able to marry Zhou Yu as soon as possible.

In the face of Sun Deng's questioning, Zhou Yin squeaked and talked about him, and Sun Deng's second monk was at a loss, so he had to hide his anxiety in his heart and go back to Sun Quan to report the results of the discussion with Sun Song. Sun Quan saw the clue from his expression, and interrogated him, Sun Deng, who was not guarded, showed his flaws in a few words, Sun Quan's eyes rolled, and then he had an idea, he said to Sun Deng, I will ask people, don't worry about it first.

A few days later, the person sent by Sun Quan to inquire had a reply, it is said that this matter is related to Sun Shao, the king of Yue, the evidence is a hand-copied book that has been worn out, the content is not new, and the "New Classic of Mountains and Seas" that has been selling very well on the market recently is basically the same, the difference is that this book is a written book, and the illustrations are also hand-painted. Judging from the degree of wear and tear of this book, Zhou Yu loves this book very much, even to the point of being inseparable.

Sun Quan recognized the words in the book, and Sun Deng also recognized them, and their father and son were furious. Sun Deng was annoyed that his eldest brother, whom he regarded as a benefactor, actually wanted to rob the woman he fancied, and Sun Quan was even more annoyed that Sun Shao not only wanted to rob his son's woman, but also disrespected Xiaoqiao, which he coveted, and the evidence was the short essay on the last page that was not a poem or a word, who is the heartbreaker? Of course it was Sun Shao, he was in Hainan at the time, but it was not the end of the world.

To say that this person is really good at association, Sun Quan thought of Xiaoqiao from the first day of Jingsha, and soon from Xiaoqiao to Daqiao, he was even more angry, Daqiao would rather die than obey him, for Sun Shao, she saw him a few times, and then Sun Shao was safe, and she returned to that cold appearance.

"Do you still want to marry her?" Sun Quan suppressed the anger in his heart and said to Sun Deng calmly.

Sun Deng gritted his teeth and nodded: "Marry!" ”

Sun Quan was very surprised, he stared at Sun Deng for a long time: "Zigao, she is so sick that she is very sick, I think she probably doesn't have you in her heart." You can read it, this book is after I proposed to the Zhou family for you......"

"I'm going to marry her." Sun Deng gritted his teeth, and there was a resentful light in his eyes: "He can't do everything as he wants." ”

Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that these two "hes" did not refer to the same person. Looking at Sun Deng's undisguised hatred when he mentioned Sun Shao, he smiled with relief: "Okay! Since you like it, then I will marry her back for you. ”

…… Zhou Yu rushed into Xiaoqiao's room with a hairbeat, and his panicked appearance startled Xiaoqiao, who was checking the dowry.

"Ayu, what's wrong with you?"

"The book is gone." Zhou Yu's eyes were frightened, his hands covered his sharply undulating chest, and he looked at Xiaoqiao anxiously.

"What book?" Xiaoqiao looked at Zhou Yu reproachfully: "New Classic of Mountains and Seas"? If you lose it, you lose it, if you like it, just go to the market and buy a copy. ”

"It's not that, it's "Essays on Southward Travel."

"This stupid boy, isn't "Southbound Essays" the "New Classic of Mountains and Seas"?" Before Xiaoqiao finished speaking, his voice lowered, and a frightened light appeared in his eyes: "When did you find out that you were missing?" Have you forgotten somewhere? ”

"I won't forget, I've always put it under my pillow." Zhou Yu said breathlessly, his eyes widened, and he looked at Xiaoqiao helplessly.

"How can it be?" Xiaoqiao's face sank, her face was angry, she was about to call someone to interrogate, but was stopped by Zhou Yu: "Mother, do you think it could be done by the secret soldiers under the king's account?" ”

Xiaoqiao was silent, and walked nervously around the room twice, sitting on the edge of the bed, and his hands kept stirring together. She heard Zhou Xun say that Sun Quan had secret soldiers under him, which were in charge of Hu Zong, Shiyi, and Xu Shen, who were specifically responsible for those unsightly things. In the last proton incident, these three people were also heavily blamed, because the assassins actually came and went freely in the palace of King Wu, but they didn't get any news of it. If it is said that they stole the "Southbound Essays" from the Zhou family in order to atone for their crimes, it is obviously very reasonable.

"Why are they eyeing our family?" Xiaoqiao scolded a little irritably: "It must be Ah Yin's vertical son who is talking nonsense, call him to me, I want to ask him well." ”

Zhou Yin came soon, and Zhou Xun also came, and when they heard the news, they were all stunned. If this matter is really done by secret soldiers, then the Zhou family will be in danger.

"I never said this, I just said that Ayu is sick, very sick, and may not be able to marry for the time being." Zhou Yin was so anxious that his face turned white, and he denied it very much: "I never said anything about "Essays on Southbound Travel". ”

"Whether you said it or not, it doesn't matter now." Zhou Xun calmed down first, "Ayu, you look for it again, if this book is gone, don't make a noise, if it leaks out, it will not be good for the reputation of my Zhou family." ”

"That'...... So what to do? Kobashi panicked.

"Don't worry." Zhou Xun's face also turned white, but he was still calm, he bit his lip and thought for a moment: "If it is really the secret soldier's doing, then the king will definitely react." The prince ......" He glanced at Zhou Yu, whose face was as white as Su Yun: "I won't marry a woman who has someone else in my heart." ”

Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xun in a daze, Zhou Xun's words were like a needle, piercing her heart fiercely, she never expected that she would become a woman who disgraced the family. If Sun Quan now repents of marriage, how will she deal with herself? Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xun, and suddenly his throat was sweet, and the people and things in front of him shook.

"Ayu-" Xiaoqiao hugged Zhou Xun and Zhou Yin together, Zhou Yin was anxious, picked up Zhou Yu, and sent her back to the room. Looking at Zhou Yu's miserable face as white as paper, Xiaoqiao cried bitterly, Zhou Xun was silent, but Zhou Yin turned his hands behind his back and went back and forth in the room, and finally he stood in front of Xiaoqiao violently and said viciously: "The matter has come to this, you don't have to think too much, don't do it, don't stop it, I'll take Ayu away and take it to Yueguo." ”

"Nonsense!" Zhou Xun shouted angrily: "You take her away, how can we explain to the king?" ”

"Confess, confess, confess?" Zhou Yin sneered, "If you hadn't regretted your marriage because you saw the danger of your eldest brother, why did you end up like this?" Ayu only has the eldest brother in her heart, don't you know? It's you, it's you who only care about your own future, not only wronged yourself for marrying Sun Luban, who you don't like at all, but also wronged Ayu for marrying Sun Deng's erector. The shaft is only fourteen years old and looks like a saint's hypocrisy, who knows what it will be like in the future? This kind of person doesn't live long, he thinks too much, and he will definitely die! ”

"Smack!" Before Zhou Yin's words fell, Xiaoqiao raised her hand and gave him a slap, and she turned white in a hurry: "Little disaster, you broke through the disaster, and you are still accusing others?" If it weren't for you going to Yue Kingdom to do what Changle Weiwei was, if it weren't for you and the prince saying that Ayu was sick and couldn't get married, how could the secret soldiers target our family? Now you're still talking nonsense, cursing the prince, don't you think it's enough to harm the Zhou family? ”

"I'm harming the Zhou family?" Zhou Yin covered his hot face, stared at Xiaoqiao, and looked at the silent Zhou Xun again, and suddenly looked up to the sky and let out a wild laugh: "Hahaha...... Am I harming the Zhou family? Am I harming the Zhou family? Okay, I'll leave now, it has nothing to do with you from now on, I'll be my Changle Guard, and see what kind of wealth you can have in the end in the Wu Kingdom. With that, he strode out the door and walked away.

Xiaoqiao and Zhou Xun were dumbfounded, and after a moment of hesitation, Zhou Xun ran out, pulled him back before Zhou Xun went out, and said in a low voice: "Zhongying, my mother is extremely angry for a while, you won't even refuse to forgive your own biological mother, right?" ”

"Understand?" Zhou Yinyu was still angry, and said indignantly: "When did you take me seriously? With credit, it's all yours, and if something goes wrong, it's all mine. Did I advise you at the beginning? You just don't listen, you don't have any faith in your eldest brother, what is happening now? The agency has exhausted its calculations, and it has mistaken Qingqing's surname. You are just too smart, so smart that your six relatives don't recognize you, so smart that your sisters turn against you, and you are so smart that your brothers become enemies. You said you had a good time in Wancheng, why did you come back? Why don't you run back, are you in such a dilemma now? You deserve it, you deserve it, you suffer from yourself, and you can't blame others. ”

Zhou Xun was scolded by Zhou Yin for the first time in his life, he was angry, but he didn't dare to attack, so he had to listen to Zhou Yin's reprimand. Now he regrets Mo Die, when he was in Wancheng, if he hadn't abandoned Sun Shao and returned to Jianye, he would probably be an important minister of Yue State now.
