Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1591 A Begonia Tree
In Jiangdong, although the spring has warmed the south of the Yangtze River, there is still not much temperature in many places. The rain is like a lingering sadness, which makes people think of the pain of the past.

Counting the fast horses, they galloped on the official road outside Wujun City like flying.

The knight covered his mouth and nose with sackcloth, on the one hand to resist the still cold air, and on the other hand to resist the dust that came along the way.The originally ecru-yellow cloth strips had become a little gray and black, filthy and filthy.

Although Jiangdong has few horses, it is not without horses, especially those families who have been in Jiangdong for a long time. There is still no shortage of more than ten or twenty war horses, but there are not enough numbers to form an army.However, there are still some differences among the war horses. The war horses that galloped towards Wu County are obviously the best among them. They are tall and have long legs, and their fur is soft and shiny, but now they are glued together because of the mixture of Han water and dust , as embarrassing as you want.

Wu County didn't have such a wide cobblestone road before, but in the past two years, another section has been paved, and it looks decent.The horse's hooves knocked on the stone slabs and made a clicking sound. The pedestrians and soldiers on the side of the road had already moved out of the way without shouting.These days, there are no traffic lights, but no one dares to break through, and all pedestrians are obediently walking on both sides.

The soldiers guarding the city gate were waiting to step forward to intercept them, but when they saw the token held up high by one of the cavalry, they hurriedly removed the horses blocking the way, allowing these cavalry to enter the city.

The leading knight, sitting on the horse, did not speak, but had a sullen face, and the eyes exposed on the sackcloth showed deep tiredness and eagerness. forward.

Entering Wujun City, it used to be a bustling street, but now there are only a few pedestrians, and some distance away there are armored guards standing guard. Everywhere is quiet, only the sound of horseshoes passing by.

Looking north, the original Sun Mansion, those overlapping eaves and building corners, those red walls and blue tiles, for some reason, is a little less prosperous, but a little more decadent. The smell emanating from his brother.

This mansion, like Sun's foundation, is anxiously waiting for the final decision.

Several guards surrounded the silent Sun Quan and dismounted at the gate of the government office.

Soldiers were standing outside and inside the gate, and when they saw Sun Quan coming, the military marquis who led the team gave an order, and all the soldiers hurriedly greeted Sun Quan.At this moment, the city of Wu Jun has been completely controlled by Sun's soldiers, monitoring and controlling everyone's every move in Wu Jun to avoid any unexpected problems.

Especially after Sun Quan left.

But now, after seeing Sun Quan's smooth return, Junhou was obviously slightly relieved.

However, the Marquis Jun could also see Sun Quan's unwavering expression, so he didn't say much, and asked someone to open the door of the Sun Mansion, while sending someone to pass the message inside, while letting Yu aside, to welcome Sun Quan into the mansion.

Sun Quan just strode forward, and several guards followed him closely, his boots trampled on the ground, and the scales of his armor jingled together. bye.

Sun Quan tore off the robe that was mixed with muddy water and Han water, revealing his armor that was also covered in dust. He prevented the old steward from asking someone to come forward to serve him, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where is Mrs. Tai?"

The old steward said: "Still in the backyard..."

Sun Quan stepped forward quickly, and when he passed through the corridor, he didn't have the patience to wait for the servants who came to get out of the way. He frowned and pushed away the palm blocking the way, and went forward.The servants, big and small, who had come to change Sun Quan's clothes quickly prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to make a sound.

The mansion of the Sun family originally belonged to the Xu family.Relying on the relationship of the Yuan family in Nanyang before, the Xu family was like a strong dragon crossing the river. With the position of the prefect, it was also prosperous in Jiangdong. The business was doing a lot, and the mansion was naturally built magnificently. , but unexpectedly, a catastrophe fell on Xu's head, and then the Sun family was taken advantage of.

However, perhaps until the end of Xu's death, it is not clear who betrayed him...

Many properties of the Xu family in Wu County, like this mansion, fell into the hands of the Sun family. Of course, this became a clear proof that the Sun family occupied the Xu family's foundation.Someone talked about this issue with Sun Ce before, but Sun Ce didn't take it seriously...

What's interesting is that Xu Gong crossed the river and died in the hands of Sun Ce, and Sun Ce was assassinated by Xu Gong's disciples.Of course, there is no need for Mrs. Sun to say anything about this matter, it has already spread throughout Jiangdong.

Several guards stayed outside the gate of the inner courtyard, and only Sun Quan entered the inner courtyard, walked through the middle hall in a few steps, and as soon as he entered the inner courtyard, Sun Quan saw Mrs. Wu standing in the courtyard with her back turned and her head raised. , looking at the crabapple in a corner of the courtyard.Sunlight shone in from the courtyard wall on one side, and the dividing line happened to fall obliquely on Mrs. Wu's body, making it look half bright and half dark.

The crabapple has sent out many new shoots, which seem to be full of new hope.

"Master!" Sun Quan lowered his eyes, took two steps forward, and bowed down.

Madam Wu didn't turn around, she didn't seem to hear Sun Quan's voice, she waited for a long time before she asked calmly: "...things...are all done?"

"It's all done..." Sun Quan kowtowed.

Before Sun Ce died, Sun Quan ran out of Wu County under Madam Wu's instigation and contacted all over the world. Not only did he get the support of Wu Ben and other Madam Wu's family members, but he also got the support of Zhou Yu and Huang Gai. The acquiescence of the new and old generals of the Sun family has basically completed the power transition of the Sun family and rushed back to Wu County.

There are some exchanges of mutual interests among them, but more of them are still holding together to keep warm, because the Sun family, Wu family, Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, and even Zhang Zhao and others actually don't want the Sun family to fall like this, but The various ethnic groups in Jiangdong also don't want the Sun family to be cornered, and the whole Jiangdong will be completely destroyed by jumping over the wall in a hurry.

Sun Quan was not the first choice of Jiangdong gentry.

However, with the support of Zhou Yu, Huang Gai and other generals of the Sun family, as well as the endorsement of the Wu family such as Wu Ben, and Zhang Zhao and others intervening in it, the original wound was stitched up, and Jiang Dong seemed to be able to reopen Melted into one complete piece...

Of course, there is a price to pay.

"Phew..." After exhaling in one breath, Mrs. Wu's body trembled, and her whole back was obviously hunched over, and she was a little stooped, "It's done... let's send... a funeral..."

In fact, not only Mrs. Wu, but also Sun Quan and others knew what the Jiangdong gentry did or did not do during Sun Ce's assassination. Mrs. Wu even persuaded Sun Ce at the beginning, but Sun Ce was helpless. Not one to follow the advice of others.

Sun Ce subconsciously chose the simple and rude way. Anyway, he has killed all the way, so why not kill all the way back?The world is so big, how can there be a knife that can't cut it?Even if a knife is not enough, then add a gun!If you can't kill one person, then kill a group of people!

Ever since, when Sun Ce was about to be in danger, even though some people knew about it first, no one reminded him.

At some point, Mrs. Wu was already in tears.Although the relationship between Mrs. Wu and Sun Ce is not very harmonious, after all, it is the flesh that fell from her body, especially after Sun Ce's death, all the shortcomings and unhappiness disappeared, and only the shining points of Sun Ce in the memories remained. It kept pricking Mrs. Wu's heart.

Because of the seriousness of his injuries, Sun Ce's wounds were able to heal all the time, but in the end he couldn't survive and died.Mrs. Wu has been guarding the backyard for the past few days, in order to delay Sun Quan to deal with the interpersonal relations of various factions, so as not to cause any major problems when the power is handed over.

Whether or not to fully develop with the Jiangdong gentry was once a choice for Mrs. Wu and Sun Quan, but in the end they chose to give in for the time being.Because if you make a move, you will definitely move your whole body. The manpower and material resources accumulated by the Jiangdong gentry for a hundred years cannot be completely resisted by the two families of the Sun family and the Wu family...

That's all for the Sun family, even if the Sun family worked together, the Wu family did not agree to push the whole family to fight for the death of Sun Ce alone.

Reconciliation has become an inevitable choice.

The Jiangdong gentry knew this, and they also understood that the Sun family and the Wu family would eventually choose this.

However, reconciliation requires some sacrifices...

Sun Quan kowtowed again, and made a "boom" on the bluestone board with his forehead: "Master, please wait a moment... I must kill the murderer first, so that my brother can rest in peace..."

The murderer, of course, was not those assassins.

"You want to kill again?!" Mrs. Wu turned around abruptly, although she still had tears on her face, her eyebrows were already raised, "You brother is like this, why don't you teach me a lesson! You want to die here Almost!" Mrs. Wu thought that something had changed, and she was exhausted and could hardly suppress her emotions.

Sun Quan was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said, "I have to kill!"

Madam Wu was very angry and laughed back: "Who said you have to kill? It's that Zhou Gongjin again?"

Sun Quan was silent.

"With Zhou's wisdom, he must know who the real culprit is, but why didn't he do it!? Huh?" Mrs. Wu said angrily, "You are forcing me to do this!"

Sun Quan was silent again.

"Zhou Gongjin!" Mrs. Wu yelled angrily in a low voice, and after panting a few times, she stopped, remained silent for a moment, and asked, "What did he say?"

"This matter is not resolved, Jiangdong is restless..." Sun Quan replied in a low voice.

"Humph! Ha, ha..." Mrs. Wu looked up at the sky, the tears on her face gradually drying up, "He's thinking about 'Ning' now...Why didn't he think about it before...Ah?! Of!"

"Zhou Gongjin invites Baqiu, the outer town, to be the Sun Clan forever..." Sun Quan bowed his head and said.

"Good! I don't want to see him again in this life!" Mrs. Wu lowered her head, stared at Sun Quan, and said, "...So when you saw Zhou Gongjin performing the courtesy of a monarch and minister, you didn't understand what he meant? You must know Zhou Gongjin's strategy , its use is five! It may not all be for the Sun family!"

Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "Its use is five? A certain one only knows four..."

Mrs. Wu snorted coldly, not bothering to explain.

"Master..." Sun Quan kowtowed again.

Killing the so-called murderer means closing the case, and Mrs. Wu doesn't want to close the case now, but wants to leave a hole and wait until the Sun family survives this catastrophe before slowly cleaning up...

However, it is obvious that the Jiangdong gentry naturally knew this.So they asked to close the case, even if they handed over a few people, they were unwilling to leave a clue in the hands of the Sun family.

You are dead, and I am also dead. Everyone returns to the original point, and there is no one who owes whom.

Unless Sun Quan doesn't want to be the Lord of Jiangdong...

Mrs. Wu gave a deep sigh: "Tell me... who do you want to kill?"

Sun Quan set his sights on the crabapple tree in a corner of the courtyard.

"..." Mrs. Wu looked over, "Flower Fairy? Huh? Fairy?"

Sun Quan nodded.

Mrs. Wu shook her head and said, "No. Ge... um, could it be... Yu?"

Sun Quan nodded and said: "Yu Ji is a thief, he cursed his elder brother, and he committed evil and chaos, which is an unforgivable crime!"

Was assassinated by a few ants like thieves, wouldn't Sun Ce's reputation on the battlefield all his life be wiped out?How can the two generations of the Sun family, Sun's father and son, have made great military exploits on the battlefield, be tarnished by a few thieves?
Because of being cursed, his personal ability declined, so he was taken advantage of by Xiao Xiao, so that Sun Ce's reputation could not be damaged.

Mrs. Wu narrowed her eyes and said, "Is it Zhou Gongjin's intention again?"

Sun Quan replied: "Zhang Zibu can do it too..."

"Zhang Zibu..." Mrs. Wu groaned for a moment, then sighed, and said, "So... it's more or less... alas... but it's just for Taoists..."

"Therefore, Jiangdong is still needed to die..." Sun Quan said, "I heard that Yuji's bandits often come to Jiangdong, and I am very happy to live in Yutangzhuang outside the city..."

Killing Yu Ji naturally couldn't appease the Sun family's anger, but handing over a leading figure of the Jiangdong gentry would more or less reflect the sincerity of the Jiangdong gentry.

Jade is Magnolia, and Tang is Begonia.There is a mountain outside the city, and some magnolias and crabapple flowers are planted everywhere in the mountain. When the flowers bloom, the mountain is full of dazzling beauty, so there is a manor located in it. Live for many days.

"The Lu family is willing?" Mrs. Wu said coldly.

Sun Quan said: "It's up to him... The Zhu family and the Gu family have nothing to blame, only the Lu family has gathered Xu's guests..."

"Lu Jicai is a modest gentleman with a mellow character, loves poetry and books, loves flowers and birds..." Mrs. Wu suddenly laughed, "Those who don't compete with the world will die a bad death, and those who plan hard will live forever... Haha, hahaha... Very good, very good..."

Sun Quan gritted his teeth, kowtowed again and said, "My lord, the family members are also implicated..."

Mrs. Wu was stunned for a moment, she smiled a little bit, lowered her head, and stared at Sun Quan: "The dead of the Sun family are not worth it? What do you want?!"

Sun Quan buried his head on the ground, he couldn't see his face clearly, he could only hear a dull voice that seemed to come out from the cracks in the bluestone slabs on the ground: "If no one in the family leaks the news, how will the thief know where my brother is? "

Here's a reason.But Sun Ce likes hunting, but it is not forced by others.From the Sun Mansion to the mountain, not only the Sun Mansion had the opportunity to pass on the news, but even the people in the city also had the opportunity to pass the news. Sun Quan's reason was not very sufficient.

However, as before, an excuse is actually needed.

Madam Wu walked up to Sun Quan, but she didn't help Sun Quan up, but lowered her eyelids, and stood like that for a long time.

There was no sound in the courtyard, only the whimpering sound of the wind blowing through the treetops, as if someone was sobbing...

"Although Lang'er has a stubborn personality, he has no intention of killing his elder brother!" Mrs. Wu said in a deep voice, "There is no need for this!"

"However, he has a lot of complaints, which is enough to make Xiaoyao..." Sun Quan still fell to the ground, "He made friends with auspicious people, and once asked about his fortune... If the child is spared his crime, how can everyone's hearts be at ease... "

"This..." Although Mrs. Wu still insisted on not giving in, she relaxed a little, "However, this will not lead to death!"

Sun Quan raised his head, and there were tears on his face at some point, and he emphasized again: "My lord, the child is not willing to do this! If you don't blame him, Sun Wu will not be at ease!"

Mrs. Wu sighed for a long time, and said after a long time: "...it's not Sun Wu who is worried, but you are worried... Anyway, let's take a step back, Lang'er is imprisoned in the shade of the mountain... and will never be released... So, okay?" (Note to this chapter)

Sun Quan kowtowed silently.

"That's all..." Madam Wu turned around, hunched over, and moved slowly step by step, moving from the light to the shadow.

Sun Quan stood up, stretched out his hand, and wanted to go up to help, but in the end he couldn't. After bowing his hands again, he turned and walked out of the yard.

Mrs. Wu didn't turn her head, but looked at the crabapple in the yard, looked at the sprouts sprouting from the crabapple, and suddenly shouted loudly after a long time: "Come here! Cut down the crabapple in the yard by its roots! Chisel and burn it!"

　Note: Sun Lang, the son of Sun Jian, is also called Sun Ren by some people, and he is regarded as a child, but the author thinks that Lang and Ren have their own people.After all, the two characters are quite different, so it is not unintentional to make a mistake.

　　Sun Lang appeared in the early period of history, and then disappeared quietly, leaving only Sun Ren, and the concubine Sun Ren was finally convicted of a fire in the army. The accident...
