Chapter 256: The human heart is unpredictable

Sun Quan returned from inspecting Jiangbei, and saw Liu Qi taking Hanzhong and entering Bashu, but Huainan never moved, seeing it in his eyes and anxious in his heart.

The Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was also sullen, the family accompanied Wu Guotai, who was sick in bed, and Sun Quan stood by the window looking at the moon, full of sadness.

Sun Kuangyan said: "Brother is worried about the affairs of Huainan? ”

Sun Quan said angrily: "Cao Cao blocked Ma Chao in Chencang, I expected that he would be pacified in the near future, but Gong Jin did not move, if Cao Cao broke Ma Chao first, and then took Huainan, it would be difficult to climb to the sky, how could I not worry?" ”

Sun Kuang said with a smile: "There is no news from the Metropolitan Governor so far, which is not a good thing!" ”

Sun Quan frowned and said, "How can you see it?" ”

Sun Kuangyan said: "The Metropolitan Governor knows the strategy very well, and the soldiers are like gods, and there has been no movement so far, which shows that everything is under control, and the Cao army is hidden from the top and bottom, like a fierce beast hunting food, if it does not move, it will be hit." ”

"That's the best!" Sun Quan sighed lightly:

While chatting, Mrs. Wu came over and handed a piece of moon cake to Sun Kuang: "Fourth, this is a moon cake made of pineapple crisp, specially left for you, eat it!" ”

"Thank you, Mother!" Sun Kuang took it with both hands and handed it to Sun Quan: "Second brother, or ......"

Mrs. Wu smiled: "Zhongmou's has already been eaten, and this piece is for you!" ”

Sun Kuang thanked him again, knowing that the second lady had a heart, and it was not easy to eat the pineapple cake she made, so he took it aside and ate it.

Sun Quan didn't eat moon cakes at all, shook his head and sighed: "Why do parents always prefer small ones?" ”

Mrs. Wu chuckled and said, "As an elder brother, I should have taken care of my younger siblings!" Leave your share in the garden and get it after the feast. ”

Sun Quan reined in his thoughts, put aside his worries for a while, reunited with his family, and sent Mrs. Wu to the backyard after the banquet.

Mrs. Wu motioned for Sun Quan to sit down and asked, "I've been depressed and unhappy lately, but you're thinking about Huainan?" ”

"There is Gongjin in Huainan, so I don't need to worry about it," Sun Quan said angrily: "It's just that I didn't expect Liu Qi to enter Shu so easily, in the land of Xuzhou, why don't you see Liu Zhang and others?" ”

remembered that when he led the troops for the first time, he was frightened away by Chen Deng's fire, and his face was a little hot!

If the opponent at that time was like Liu Zhang, he would have already entered the Central Plains at this time, and there would be no more assassination of his brother!

Mrs. Wu seemed to see through Sun Quan's thoughts, and said: "Liu Qi and Cao Cao are all in charge of the army, but my son stays in the rear, this is not a long-term solution, Jiangdong can't rely on Gongjin alone!" ”

Sun Quan's face was feverish, and he said helplessly: "Why don't you want to lead the troops, but ......"

Mrs. Wu said with a straight face: "My son has a firm heart, how can he retreat after a slight setback?" Gaozu has been defeated repeatedly, but he has never been discouraged, he has this great man's foundation for hundreds of years, but you have collapsed, this is not a hero's doing! ”

Sun Quan said: "Gaozu has Zhang Liang as a plan, Xiao He and Han Xin as assistants, I compare Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong, and Zhou Yu to the three of them, and appoint major events, what's wrong?" ”

Mrs. Wu said lightly: "What about my son not seeing the King of Sanqi?" ”

"This ......" Sun Quan's face changed slightly, and he shook his head and said: "Gongjin is a person of faith and righteousness, and he is dedicated to planning for Jiangdong, and he will never disagree. ”

Mrs. Wu sighed: "Although Zhou Yu is loyal, he is a foreign surname after all, but have you ever thought that under Zhou Yu and after Zhou Yu, who can rely on him?" I don't know that Zhou Yu worked hard for Jiangdong, but it was also a fellowship with Bo Fu's confidant, following his will, and following his will, not for you, the lord of Jiangdong. ”

"Huh?" Sun Quan's face changed greatly, and he looked at Mrs. Wu in astonishment under the flickering candlelight, and suddenly felt a little strange.

Mrs. Wu's expression was indifferent, and she said slowly: "You have to understand, Zhou Yu is only loyal to Jiangdong, not your confidant, if you want to sit firmly as the lord of Jiangdong, like Cao Cao and Liu Qi, you need to take more military power and promote your cronies, so it is a long-term solution." ”

Sun Quan's heart was awe-inspiring, and he hurriedly got up and saluted: "The child has been taught!" ”

Mrs. Wu took the food box at this time, and said: "Taishi Ci is a general in Jiangdong, no matter what the condition is, it is better to take it back to Jiangdong for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible, people's hearts are unpredictable, and they will change over time." As the lord of one side, no one should be gullible except himself, including ...... Old body inside! ”

Sun Quan was stunned, took the food box and said goodbye, his thoughts fluctuated along the way, and today's conversation touched him greatly.

After tossing and turning all night, he summoned Jia Hua and asked, "General Taishi went to Jingzhou for treatment, how is the situation?" ”

Jia Hua replied: "Since General Taishi arrived in Jingzhou, there has been no news from him, according to the detailed report, he lives in a medical hall, and because of his critical condition, no one is allowed to enter except for his son. ”

Sun Quan frowned slightly: "Tai Shixiang has no news?" ”

Jia Hua said: "Tai Shixiang takes care of his father, he never leaves him day and night, and rarely goes out. ”

Sun Quan's eyes narrowed slightly: "Where is Yu Xuan?" ”

Jia Hua shook his head and said: "Yu turned over to Xiangyang, and he disappeared, I don't know where to go!" ”

Bang –

Sun Quan was furious and took the case: "Yu Zhongxiang took the opportunity to escape, what a boldness!" ”

Jia Hua wanted to say that Yu Quan must have a grudge against being exiled, and he didn't want to go back to Jiangdong, but when he saw Sun Quan's face pale, he stood aside with his head bowed.

Sun Quan wrote a letter to express his condolences to Tai Shi Ci's condition, and ordered Jia Hua to send someone to Xiangyang, so that he must see Tai Shi Ci to see what his condition was.

After a while, Sun Quan called his own soldier Zhou Shan and ordered: "I know that you are quite courageous, and you are the best at penetrating the house and entering the house. ”

Zhou Shan hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The lord is sent, and his subordinates will not give up, how dare they accept the word please?" ”

Sun Quan helped him up, stroked his shoulder, and said angrily: "You have followed my brother since I was a child, and I know that my brother left you by my side because he was worried about my safety, but this matter is extremely confidential, and I have to send you on a long trip." ”

Zhou Shan was greatly moved, and hurriedly said: "Although the lord commands, even if it is a sword mountain and a sea of fire, his subordinates must break in." ”

Zhou Shan was originally an orphan who lived in the rivers and lakes, and he practiced his skills since he was a child, and was taken in by Sun Ce and became the general of the Sun family, mainly responsible for taking care of his family.

Sun Quan said: "Tai Shi Ci went to Xiangyang for treatment, but there was no news of him, it is really suspicious, you secretly went to Xiangyang to secretly investigate this matter!" ”

"Yes!" Zhou Shan was very excited when he saw Sun Quan sending him out to do things.

Sun Quan said in a low voice: "Although Tai Shici and his brother are heart-to-heart, but the elder brother has passed away for many years, and he was originally a general of Liu Xuan, and he is close to the Liu family, I am worried that he will be bewitched again, if his father and son really change their minds, you must try to get rid of him." ”

"Huh?" Zhou Shan was shocked and looked at Sun Quan in amazement.

Sun Quan's eyes were slightly cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Tai Shi Ci is a Jiangdong general, who has mastered the secrets of military information everywhere, especially familiar with the defense of Yuzhang, and has many old departments, do you know the consequences?" ”

Zhou Shan took a deep breath, knelt down and said: "My subordinates don't know anything about military affairs, they only know how to obey the orders of the lord, whether it is right or wrong, they must go all out!" ”

"Good!" Sun Quan was extremely satisfied, thought about it and walked to the back of the bookcase, and took out the ancient ingot knife from the dark grid: "This knife is the heirloom of my Sun family, it can be cut gold and jade, you change the handle of the scabbard and carry it with you, just like a brother, if you see rebellion, don't hesitate, just do it!" ”
