In the big tent, Changmu Xiu picked up the scroll on the case and flipped through it casually. Sun Ce lifted the curtain and walked in, and said to Changmu Xiu with a radiant look: "Yo, what kind of wind blew Zhang Gongzi here again?" ”

Changmu Xiu put down the scroll and bowed: "Hearing the young general say this, it seems that Zhang is not very welcome." ”

Sun Ce snorted and said, "Every time Zhang Gongzi comes, there is nothing good, Sun really can't think of any reason to welcome you." ”

Changmu Xiu smiled lightly and apologized: "Don't blame the young general, Xiu came here today to supervise the army on the order of General Yuan, since he is an overseer, even if he has nothing to do, he has to inspect it, otherwise wouldn't he be derelict in his duties?" ”

Sun Ce didn't care about what Yuan Shu did, he leisurely stacked the scrolls on the case, and raised his eyes: "I don't know what Zhang Gongzi can find out?" ”

Nagaki Xiulang laughed a few times, lowered his voice and stepped forward, "This time, Zhang has a big gift", as he spoke, he took out two silk books from his arms and handed them over with both hands.

Sun Ce opened all the letters, only to see one of them, which was written by Yuan Shu to Qiao Rui, ordering him to recuperate with peace of mind, while the other letter was written by Qiao Rui to Da Qiao, telling her that she was fine, but the old illness had not been cured, and she was recuperating in the station fifty miles south of Xuzhou, and asked her to stay at Aunt Jiangdong and not go back to her hometown.

"Zhang did what he said, especially for the major general, I think Miss Da Qiao should be at ease, and Major General Sun can also concentrate on crossing the river to fight, but it's just ......"

Sun Ce was a little pleased, and when he saw that Changmu Xiu wanted to speak and stopped, he immediately smiled: "It seems that Zhang Gongzi is going to make a move again." ”

Nagaki Shushu said "don't dare" as he took out the third silk book and handed it over. Sun Ce took a look, and it was actually a letter written by Yuan Shu to Changmu Xiu, in which he was very clear about the whereabouts of the jade seal, and ordered Changmu Xiu to quickly ask for it for him.

Zhang knew that the young general didn't like to listen, but if the young general wanted to keep General Qiao safe, he should still take out the jade seal and present it to General Yuan. After all, General Yuan's methods, you and I are not ignorant", Changmu Xiu said, reaching out and pulling back the brocade silk in Sun Ce's hand.

The pain on his back pierced his heart like a thousand arrows, but Sun Ce couldn't notice it, he only felt the blood rushing to the top of his head, he clenched his hands into fists to restrain his emotions, laughed a few times and asked Changmu Xiudao: "Is Zhang Gongzi helping me or harming me?" ”

"Of course I'm helping you," Changmu Xiu was not afraid, slowly got up, and stared at Sun Ce coldly, "The jade seal should have been owned by the current saint, what is the position of General Sun Shao to keep the jade seal private?" Even if Ling Zun was afraid of Dong Zhuo's comeback, he took it into his pocket, but now that the thief is dead, keeping the jade seal is only harmful to the young general! Even if there is no General Yuan, there will still be people in the world who covet it. Since General Yuan knows the young general's thoughts about Miss Da Qiao, how can he let General Qiao go? Please think again! ”

Sun Ce was noncommittal to Changmu Xiu's generous statement and asked, "Where did you learn about my father?" ”

"There have long been legends about the jade seal in Jiangdong. Ling Zun led the crowd to break through Luoyang City, and was the first to enter the palace, and then the jade seal disappeared...... However, as long as you know Ling Zun's deeds, you will not doubt his heart to support the Han family. It's just that time has changed, and with General Sun's situation today, if he doesn't hand over the jade seal, he will definitely fall into a situation from which he will never recover......"

This jade seal is indeed like a hot potato, and every time Sun Ce wakes up in the middle of the night, he doesn't know what to do with it. But at this moment, is it really the best choice to hand him over to Yuan Shu? Sun Ce pondered for a moment, and then ordered his subordinates outside the tent in a deep voice: "Someone! Arrange a place for Zhang Gongzi to live! ”

Changmu Xiu bowed his hand and walked out of the big tent with the soldiers. Needless to say, although Sun Ce seems simple and direct, his mind is deep and difficult to fathom. Today, he did not dismiss it on the spot, and the matter was half the battle.

The plan is in the making, and Sun Ce's handing over the jade seal is a small but crucial step. Thinking of this, the corners of Nagaki Xiu's mouth rose slightly, revealing an intriguing smile.

After Changmu Xiu left, Sun Ce was relieved, and gently stroked his shoulders and back, the scars on his back were like fire, and he trembled in pain.

Suddenly, as soon as the curtain was lifted, Sun Ce hurriedly sat up straight, and when he saw that it was Lu Meng, he was angry, and scolded him: "Stinky boy, why don't you come in without reporting!" ”

Lu Meng was so frightened that he didn't know how to advance or retreat, and said: "Wanling is in a hurry, I thought that the young general would be in a hurry, so I rushed in." ”

Hearing that it was Zhou Yu's letter, Sun Ce got up and dragged it over and hurriedly opened it. Zhou Yu wrote down what he saw in Huashan, and after Sun Ce read it, he was full of doubts, and he thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of a reason. There is such a hidden mystery cave in Huashan, I don't know what kind of force created it, and it is no accident that he and Zhou Yu were attacked by birds on the same day. Sun Ce was afraid that he would have a long night and many dreams, so he asked Lu Meng: "This place is only three or five miles away from the Wujiang River." ”

Lu Meng said yes, and said: "Although it has not reached the rainy season, there have been several heavy rains in the spring of this year, and the runoff on the river is very large. In the evening, I had already taken some of my brothers to clear the area, and had set up a sentry by the river. ”

In the end, Lu Meng was still much more refined than before, and Sun Ce nodded in approval: "Liu Miao must have thought that I would cross the river from Dangli, go to my uncle to meet, and then try to do anything else, so he did not have a heavy army here." What's more, this place was the place where the overlord Xiang Yu killed himself, and Liu Miao thought that I would avoid taboos...... By the way, I heard Gongjin say that you are also from Wu County, so follow me to the riverside and take a look at our hometown across the bank. ”

"However, the major general's wounded ......"

Sun Ce's handsome cheeks were pale, his smile was a little weak, but his eyes were still as bright as stars: "There are many people who see me injured today, and if I don't go out again, they will definitely rumor that I am going to die." Stop talking nonsense and let's go! ”

The continuous spring raindrops fell into the Qingshui River, and the mist on the water surface dispersed, and the clouds of smoke and fog hid the outline of the city.

In the south of Wanling City, in the white-walled house, Xiao Qiao woke up from his nightmare and shouted: "Zhou Lang! ”

The mother-in-law on duty, Mari, stepped forward to help Xiao Qiao: "The girl is awake?" What Lang Zhong said was right, the girl was really only in a coma for most of the day......"

Xiao Qiao's memory is still stuck in the Huashan cliff, seeing this woman, she looked in a trance, Mu Mu asked, "What about Zhou Lang?" What about the birds? ”

Xiao Qiao really remembered Zhou Yu's whereabouts, and the mother-in-law smiled meaningfully: "Don't worry, girl, although Lang Jun is also injured, there is no major problem in the end, and he will rush back to the nest early this morning." The adult and the lady asked the old body to tell the girl that she didn't have to think about anything, just stay and recuperate in peace. ”

Hearing that Zhou Yu threw himself down and returned to the nest, Xiao Qiao didn't mention how lost and uncomfortable: "Did he leave anything behind?" ”

The mother-in-law shook her head: "Juchao has an urgent matter, Lang Jun left in a hurry, and only ordered us to take care of the girl, and did not say anything else." ”

I thought that after experiencing life and death, there would be a difference between them, but I didn't want to be Zhuang Sheng's dream butterfly, and everything was like smoke. The headache was unbearable, Xiao Qiao choked in his throat, pretended to be calm and said to the woman: "My throat hurts a lot, can you please pour me a glass of water?" ”

"You're welcome, girl."

While the mother-in-law turned around to make water, Xiao Qiao raised her hand to wipe away the rolling tears, but the mist in her heart was like smoke and rain outside the window, and she couldn't get rid of it no matter what.

On the side of the Wujiang River, the stars were brilliant, and Sun Ce led his horse to stand by the river, letting the east wind blow the broken hair on his forehead.

Sun Ce has been familiar with "Zuo Chuan" since he was a child, and he understands the truth in "Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan" that "if the son wants to kill him, he must first indulge it". This jade seal is really useless to stay on his side, if it can be used as a sharp blade to eradicate Yuan Shu, it can really be regarded as a good use.

But this jade seal is considered a relic of his father, and he handed it over like this, I don't know what his mother will think, and whether Zhou Yu will understand him, but neither of them is by his side, and the opportunity is fleeting, and he can't hesitate anymore.

Lu Meng stepped forward to put on a cloak for Sun Ce, and persuaded in a low voice: "It's windy here, and the major general Fang is seriously injured, so it's better to go back early." ”

Sun Ce was wearing a red cloak, pointed to the side and said, "Send the order to go down, find some craftsmen, and build a pavilion here." ”

"What?" Lu Meng looked dazed, and was about to ask again, when he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, he vigilantly blocked in front of Sun Ce, only to see that the person who came was none other than Han Dang and Da Qiao.

"Ying'er!" Sun Ce immediately stepped forward in three or two steps, grabbed Da Qiao's bridle, made it stop slowly, and then hugged her off the horse.

Before going out, Sun Ce ordered someone to send Qiao Rui's letterhead to Da Qiao, and she couldn't wait to come this time, it should be for this matter. Sun Ce had a smile between his eyebrows and eyes, and quipped: "Why did Ying'er come in a hurry? Did you read your father-in-law's letter and know that he agreed to marry me, so he came to meet me? ”

Da Qiao's cheeks turned red, and he feigned anger: "No, I'm here to see which commander of the First Army is seriously injured and running around." ”

Sun Ce hugged Da Qiao into his arms, looked at the vast rushing river, and whispered, "Ying'er, let's get married here." ”
