688 Generous dowry
No wonder Yu Ji said that he had no return, it was because of this matter, Wang Baoyu stabilized his mind and said: "Brother, I really like Xiang'er, but it's not appropriate to marry her now." ”
As soon as he heard Wang Baoyu call his brother, Sun Quan's face was much better, and he sighed: "Baoyu, I have always regarded my sister as a pearl in the palm of my hand, how can I have let her be wronged since I was a child?" Alas, for you, she first married an old man like Liu Daer, and today she is still struggling for your youth. After you left Yiling, I sent people to pick her up many times, but she was bent on waiting for you and refused to come back. ”
Sun Quan's heart-wrenching words made Wang Baoyu's heart also rise a trace of sourness, and tears instantly wet her eyes, Sun Shangxiang has the face of an old man, and it is needless to say that her feelings for herself are more than Jin Jian, in the final analysis, she still bears her.
"Brother, I can understand your feelings, thinking of Xiang'er, I feel very uncomfortable, but going north to the Xianbei wilderness is my greatest wish in this life. If her wish is not fulfilled, she is afraid that life will be boring, and she will barely be with Xiang'er, presumably she will not be happy. Wang Baoyu rubbed his moist eyes and said sincerely.
"Marriage is the life of your parents, how can you be unhappy when you two have love for each other?" Sun Quan frowned, he really didn't understand Wang Baoyu's strange emotional theories.
"Brother, anyone can make do with it, and it is precisely because I respect and love Xiang'er that I will not let her be hurt needlessly."
Sun Quan stared at Wang Baoyu with a pair of blue eyes, this kid is really difficult to fiddle with, Xiang'er is noble and beautiful like a fairy, but Wang Baoyu pushes three and four, as if begging him!
In the final analysis, it is his sister who is dead-hearted, otherwise Sun Quan has the heart to kill Wang Baoyu, he is patient and beckons: "Baoyu, let's talk while drinking!" ”
Sun Quan ordered someone to serve wine, drank two glasses with Wang Baoyu, and then said: "Baoyu, I don't know why you have to go to that wild place, but Xiang'er is not young, and my mother worries about it day and night, and often tells me about it. In my opinion, it would be okay to get married first, and then go north. ”
"Brother, can you let Xiang'er wait a little longer, I will definitely come back." Wang Baoyu asked tentatively.
"Wait again!" Sun Quan slapped the chopsticks on the table unhappily, "How young can a woman be?" Xiang'er has you in her heart, naturally she doesn't care about staying together for a long time, you two have a marriage, you are a husband and wife who share hardships, do you want to go north, Xiang'er is willing to let you go, you discuss it yourself, and you will never participate as a brother, so don't wait any longer! Now that Guan Yu is eyeing Jiangdong, I am ready to move the capital to Moling. Chaisang County and Chaoyang Palace will give it to you and Xiang'er, presumably Guan Yu has affection for you and should not come to attack. ”
Taking a prosperous county as a dowry was unprecedented at that time, and Sun Quan's conditions were extremely generous. If you are an ordinary person, you must be moved to cry bitterly, kowtow to thanks, take some vows, and so on.
But Wang Baoyu is a future person who wants to go home, although he is also excited, you must know that Chaisang County is stronger than Yiling from that point, but going home is the strongest call in Wang Baoyu's heart, and he still doesn't plan to accept it.
Seeing that Wang Baoyu was silent, Sun Quan gritted his teeth and squeezed out a smile, and discussed: "Why don't you set the wedding date today?" ”
Wang Baoyu still didn't speak, "Then bring Xiang'er here, how about you two discuss?" Sun Quan asked again with a smiling face.
Wang Baoyu still didn't squeak, but Sun Quan couldn't help it, his face suddenly sank, and he said, "Baoyu, don't you think I'm not doing enough as a brother?" If you have any other requirements, I will agree! ”
Wang Baoyu has only one request, that is, to let Sun Quan let himself go, but it can be seen from Sun Quan's eyes that if he insists on this point of view again, he is afraid that it will be difficult to get out of this big tent.
Wang Baoyu suppressed all the reasons in his stomach, and nodded reluctantly: "Then do it according to my brother's wishes!" ”
Sun Quan suddenly laughed, seemed to let go of a matter of concern, and said sincerely: "If you can get Baoyu's help, why worry about the world?" When the time comes, I will not treat my family badly. ”
"As Cao Cao's envoy, can I not go back?" Wang Baoyu asked.
"It's okay, the thief Cao sent you, it's nothing more than a matter of retreating, and I will send someone to explain." Sun Quan waved his hand indifferently.
Wang Baoyu didn't speak anymore, and he knew in his heart that no matter what, he had to return to Cao Ying, Fan Jinqiang and the others were still in Xudu, and if they didn't return, they would definitely be affected. Moreover, if you want to go north, you can't do without Cao Cao's help at all.
Subsequently, Sun Quan was quite interested and asked about Cao Cao's side, Wang Baoyu didn't hide it, anyway, there were no military secrets, so he told him how to take Cai Wenji back, and how to help Cao Cao defeat Ma Chao, etc.
Sun Quan listened to it with relish, no wonder his sister has a soft spot for this kid, it seems that he is really capable. While Sun Quan praised it again and again, he was even more determined to leave Wang Baoyu's idea.
Subsequently, Wang Baoyu was arranged by Sun Quan to live in a big tent, and his eating and drinking consumption were on par with the first-line generals, and he was even better.
However, Sun Quan also knew Wang Baoyu's thoughts, and was worried that he would leave without saying goodbye, which was not without precedent, so he sent hundreds of soldiers to guard the big tent impenetrable, and forgave him for being unable to fly.
After Sun Quan prepared to withdraw the army, he first brought his sister from Yiling, and arranged the marriage between Wang Baoyu and his sister.
Let's not talk about how Wang Baoyu got out of trouble, just when Sun Quan and Wang Baoyu met again and drank and chatted together, in Fucheng in the west, Liu Bei and Liu Zhang, who were brothers of the same clan, also met at this time.
Liu Bei was invited to Sichuan, in order not to arouse Liu Zhang's suspicion, under the construction of Pang Tong, he changed the army flags to bright colors, the purpose of which was to let Liu Zhang understand the march route and appear to be above board.
When Liu Zhang learned about Liu Bei's arrangement, he was very happy, and felt that this brother was very particular about his work, so he immediately ordered to go down, and whenever Liu Bei's army arrived, he must supply money and food, and fully support Liu Bei's northern expedition to Zhang Lu.
Speaking of Zhang Song, after returning from Liu Bei, he showed Liu Zhang the mouth with his teeth knocked out and the scars on his body, crying that Cao Cao was cruel and rude, saying that Cao Cao had long coveted Yizhou. He also said that fortunately, the lord was wise and invited Liu Bei to Sichuan, and for failing to complete the task of uniting Cao Cao, Zhang Song hoped to ask for the crime with death.
Liu Zhang still didn't bother with Zhang Song in the end, but rewarded him, but because of this decision, he completely lost Xichuan.
