Chapter 16: But for the Sake of the King (1)

From Shouchun City to Lujiang County Anhui City more than 500 miles, Lu'an City is located in the middle of the itinerary, south of the thousand years of heavy snow Dabie Mountain, east of the vast lake of the smoke and waves, by the mountains and waters, the treasure of the world.

Although it is a small city in all directions, it blends north and south, and is a thoroughfare in all directions, with dense business and travel exchanges, and a city like a city. Yesterday night, when the four of them stayed at the city inn, only the last two wings remained.

Sun Ce was in the same room with Zhou Yu, he tossed and turned all night sleeplessly, his mind was full of Da Qiao and happy things, and before dawn, he couldn't wait to wake Zhou Yu up. Zhou Yu thought something was wrong, and got up in a daze and took out a short knife: "But there are gangsters who are killing?" ”

In the early morning, it was extremely cold, Sun Ce sat on the edge of the couch in his dirty clothes, and asked while sneezing: "Gong Jin, I have thought about it all night, but I still don't know what to do, you can help me come up with an idea." ”

Zhou Yu didn't have time to think deeply, and said naturally: "You don't have to worry about the matter of the jade seal, Yuan Shu has no evidence, so he will definitely not dare to act rashly." After your aunt returns to Wu County, there will be people from your uncle on all sides, and there will be no ...... of the pool."

Sun Ce waved his hand and said, "I'm not asking this, I mean Da Qiao...... If that bastard really proposes to General Qiao, and General Qiao agrees in a frenzy, what should I do? ”

Zhou Yu didn't expect that Sun Ce woke him up before dawn, but it was for Da Qiao's business, he lifted the brocade quilt, leaned down and lay down, turned his back to Sun Ce and ignored it.

Who knew that Sun Ce still didn't give up, and went around to the other side of the soft couch: "Gongjin, you have married a daughter-in-law, you know a lot, help me think about it." ”

Zhou Yu was so sleepy by Sun Ce that he rubbed his sleepy eyes, got up and put on his Confucian clothes, and went to the front of the desk to pour tea.

Sun Ce knew that Zhou Yu was very particular, so he had to rinse his mouth first when he got up in the morning, and hurriedly took the teacup and poured tea for him.

Zhou Yu stopped washing, sat back at the desk and said to Sun Ce: "After so many years of messing around, I finally saw that you were a little serious, and even the tea poured today was like vinegar, very sour." It's just that I don't have any clever plan, only the word 'hurry' to send you, if you don't hurry, just wait to drink Miss Da Qiao's happy wine." ”

Outside the window of the inn embroidery room, the yellow orioles are singing green willows. Little Joe sat under the small window, reading by daylight.

Da Qiao packed his bags and stepped forward to gently pat Xiao Qiao's shoulder: "Wan'er is reading a military book again?" If I continue to read it, I will become a great Sima, and I will definitely scare my future brother-in-law away. ”

Xiao Qiao pouted, threw the scroll aside, and said boredly: "What else does my sister say, isn't my sister teaching me to read and write and teach me to read military books?" Why are you teasing me again? ”

Da Qiao raised his hand and brushed Xiao Qiao's horn, and said with a smile: "We only have military books at home, and it is very interesting to read them in our spare time, that is, I teach Wan'er to be like a boy, but I am not the one who is my sister." ”

Xiao Qiaoming's eyes rolled, and he smiled and said: "Sister is not in vain, the art of war is perfect, and one move of 'striking the east and west' will cause Sun Bofu to go crazy, so powerful!" ”

Da Qiao's face was flushed, and he said with shame and anger: "What are you talking nonsense about this girl?" Where shall I use counsel against him? ”

Xiao Qiao stuck out his tongue and replied: "Yes, yes, my sister is in love, so it's not a strategy!" ”

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu cleaned up and walked along the corridor to the door of the big and small Qiao rooms, and when they heard a burst of laughter inside, Sun Ce couldn't help frowning, and muttered in a low voice: "You see that she had such a cold face to me yesterday, and she laughed like this today, it's really ......."

Zhou Yu made a gesture and motioned for Sun Ce to silence: "If you don't want to add a level of guilt, say a few words now." ”

Sun Ce understood: "Then according to the original plan, you use the beautiful man's plan to lead my sister-in-law away, and let me say a few words to Miss Da Qiao." ”

Seeing Sun Ce's frowning like this, Zhou Yu couldn't help laughing, he cleared his throat, knocked on the door, and said, "Miss Xiao Qiao is here?" ”

Hearing Zhou Yu's voice, Xiao Qiao got up, walked to the door and went back to the bronze mirror to comb the broken hair between the sideburns. Da Qiao had never seen Xiao Qiao like this, so he couldn't help but smile and stepped forward to open the door.

Zhou Yu and Sun Ce hurriedly saluted Da Qiao, and Da Qiao also returned the salute to the two, but the expression when they looked at Sun Ce was still cold. Sun Ce's steps moved slightly, and he touched Zhou Yu's shoes, and Zhou Yu immediately said to Da Qiao: "Zhou plans to buy another horse, I heard that Miss Xiao Qiao is good at horses, so I specially invite Miss Xiao Qiao to go with me to have a look." ”

Xiao Qiao naturally knew that Zhou Yu came up with such a clumsy reason for buying a horse in order to create an opportunity for Da Qiao and Sun Ce to speak. Although Xiao Qiao didn't like Sun Ce, he hated the likes of Le Yi even more, not to mention having Zhou Yu as his companion, so he agreed very happily.

Seeing Xiao Qiao and Zhou Yu walking down the attic, Da Qiao glanced at Sun Ce with disgust and wanted to close the door. Sun Ce was quick with his hands, grabbed Da Qiao's slender waist, entered the room, and pressed Da Qiao lightly on the door panel.

Da Qiao wanted to push Sun Ce away, but he couldn't exert any strength: "You get out of the way......"

Sun Ce didn't move, pulled Da Qiao's slender jade hand into a small fist, and hammered twice in his chest. Da Qiao couldn't help but exclaim: "What are you doing......"

Sun Ce looked at Da Qiao, his ink eyes were deep, and his feelings were surging: "Yesterday, you were angry and wanted to beat me, but you couldn't do it." I deliberately didn't wear armor today, and if you get angry, just punch a few more times. ”

Da Qiao's small fist smashed on Sun Ce's body, as if it was smashed on iron. Sun Ce didn't react, but Da Qiao's hand was about to crack in pain. Seeing that Da Qiao was in pain, Sun Ce regretted his recklessness, and his slender knuckles with thick calluses touched her little hand, blowing lightly on his lips, as if holding a peerless treasure.

Da Qiao's heart was moved, and his gaze at Sun Ce softened by three points. Sun Ce sighed in a low voice: "Ying'er......"

I don't know why Sun Ce suddenly called his girlfriend name, Da Qiao's face was hot, and he bowed his head and didn't respond.

In the embroidery room, the atmosphere is warm and beautiful. Who knew that Sun Ce would not die, so he asked: "Are you called Ying'er?" ”

Downstairs of the inn is the Lu'an Guandao Post Station, which is in the midst of war, and horses are especially scarce and expensive. This is the only family in Lu'an City, which naturally attracts people from all over the world. Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao, together with the bustling crowd, carefully selected at the stable.

There are reckless and strong men all around, and sometimes traitors covet Xiao Qiao's beauty and want to come forward to take advantage of the chaos to rub oil. Zhou Yu resisted left and right, taking care of one thing and losing the other, he simply protected Xiao Qiao in front of him, keeping a fist away.

Xiao Qiao snickered secretly, pretended to stumble, and fell backwards. Zhou Yu raised his sleeves to help him, and immediately withdrew his hand when he saw Xiao Qiao standing firmly: "Miss Xiao Qiao, beware." ”

Zhou Yu's carefulness and thoughtfulness exceeded Xiao Qiao's expectations, and she couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect you to be so good at taking care of people." ”

Zhou Yu replied seriously: "To protect the two beauties, it is natural to put more thought into it. Now the world is chaotic, and there are too many disciples, so we have to guard against it. ”

Seeing Zhou Yu say this compliment with such a righteous expression, Xiao Qiao was amused and proud: "If Sun Bofu had half of your spiritual understanding, he wouldn't have made my sister angry like that." ”

Xiao Qiao's words undoubtedly hit the hidden worry in Zhou Yu's heart: I didn't expect that once Sun Ce was emotional, he would have no wrists, if he did something wrong again, he would definitely delay the trip, and if he delayed it like this, when would he be able to get to Lujiang?
