Perhaps, the fat and easy-going Adou only needs to think about how to live every day well, but the precocious Li Xiang has many things to consider and pay attention to.

Ever since Li Ji went to Chaisang to take charge, Li Xiang has been paying close attention to his father's movements, and naturally he also noticed the sensational incident involving Sun Ce.

However, Adou himself didn't know and it didn't matter. In response to Li Xiang's question, he turned to ask the other children around him.

As the other children spoke enthusiastically, Adou soon understood what had happened.

"Brother, do you have a good relationship with General Sun?" Adou asked.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiang nodded slightly.

Sun Ce often visited Li Ji at the mansion, and naturally he would meet Li Xiang.

Sun Ce was a generous and righteous person, and he would often bring a lot of fun little items as gifts for Li Xiang.

Also, since Li Ji would not discuss official business with Zhao Ji and Li Xiang at home, Li Xiang sometimes wanted to know another side of his father, and the easiest channel to contact him was Sun Ce.

After a few interactions, Sun Ce and Li Xiang became familiar with each other.

Now that he heard that Sun Ce was imprisoned by Liu Bei, Li Xiang was naturally in a bad mood.

Just at this moment, a maid led Sun Ren, who had just entered the mansion, to this small courtyard.

When he saw Adou and Li Xiang, Sun Ren's face lit up with joy and he shouted.

"Ah Xiang, young master."

Seeing Sun Ren's first reaction, Ah Dou said with a smile, "Sister Ren, why are you late today?"

Then, noticing Sun Ren's anxious face, A Dou realized that Sun Ce was Sun Ren's elder brother.

At this moment, Sun Ren did not even bother to greet Adou, and hurriedly stepped forward to beg.

"Ah Xiang, Young Master, please save my elder brother."

After these words were spoken, Li Xiang's eyebrows twisted into a ball. A Dou thought about it and looked at Li Xiang again.

Although Sun Ren is a girl, she usually imitates Sun Ce's bold and generous character, and is quite popular in this small group.

Therefore, Sun Ren made this move, and many children gathered around.

Seeing that Adou and Li Xiang didn't say anything, Sun Ren became more anxious.

"Young Master, Ah Xiang, you are the only ones who can save my elder brother right now. As long as you open your mouth, Uncle Liu will definitely reconsider."

Seeing that Sun Renjie was about to cry, but was begging while holding back his tears, some children who had a good relationship with him couldn't help but speak up as well.

"Aren, don't be anxious. You have to let Xiangge think of a solution."

"It may not be effective if Young Master and Brother Xiang ask for help, but it's always a good idea to give it a try."

"Aren seems to be about to cry. Normally, he won't cry even if you spank him..."

……

Seeing that the scene was becoming a little chaotic, Li Xiang clapped his hands, and the children soon quieted down.

Perhaps in this small group, Adou has the highest status, but the precocious Li Xiang is undoubtedly more prestigious.

Immediately, Li Xiang spoke with an embarrassed look.

"Ah Ren, I want to help you too, but even if we want to rescue Bo Fu, the young master and I must not ask for mercy from our uncle, otherwise it will probably backfire."

"why?"

Not only Sun Ren was puzzled, but the other children were also confused. Li Xiang opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to explain the logic.

After all, Li Xiang vaguely realized this, which was an intuition produced by a certain thinking that he unconsciously cultivated under Li Ji's occasional teachings.

But Li Xiang was too young after all, and he had not yet been able to sort out the logical relationship.

Perhaps, it would not be difficult for Li Xiang and A Dou to go to Liu Bei to plead for mercy, but Li Xiang felt that even if Sun Ce was fine in the end, it would likely harm Sun Ren and even more people.

However, Adou answered thoughtfully and said.

"Brother, maybe what you mean is related to what father and uncle mentioned inadvertently, 'The harem cannot interfere in government affairs'? Both father and uncle seem to be very sensitive about this matter, and mother never expresses any opinions on government affairs on weekdays."

"Harem?"

Li Xiang was slightly startled, as if he had caught something, and then his little face couldn't help but blush. He raised his eyes to look at Sun Ren who was about to cry, and quickly retracted his gaze subconsciously.

Hearing this, Sun Ren, whose hopes were shattered once again, sat on the ground in a daze, crying.

This made the children present very anxious, and they all started to comfort Sun Ren.

"Don't cry, Ren. I will never fight with you again."

"This is the candy I brought from home. Eat the candy, don't cry..."

"Aren, my father always said that a real man dies when he dies. Your elder brother is also a real man, and he dies when he dies. Don't cry. We will accompany you to pay tribute to him when the time comes, okay?"

Suddenly, Sun Ren cried even louder.

This noisy scene gave Li Xiang an even greater headache, and he felt that women were indeed troublesome.

Ah Ren is obviously good-looking enough to make people want to look at him more, but he is not as gentle and virtuous as his mother...

But how to save Sun Ce?
Li Xiang racked his brains but couldn't come up with a suitable solution for a while. Instead, Cai Zhaoji was attracted over by the crying.

After Cai Zhaoji learned what had happened, she looked at Sun Ren with a bit more pity. She comforted Sun Ren with a few words, sent someone to send Sun Ren back to the Sun Mansion, and the party disbanded.

After everyone left, Li was able to sort out some of the issues and came up with a bold idea.

That is to let Sun Ce make merit!

Even if the merits and demerits cannot be offset, Sun Ce can still save his life.

Only in this way can Sun Ce be rescued as much as possible without implicating anyone.

But now Sun Ce has been imprisoned in the dungeon. The first problem Li Xiang has to face is to find a way to force Liu Bei to activate Sun Ce from the dungeon so that Sun Ce can have the opportunity to make meritorious service.

This made Li Xiang unconsciously recall some remarks his father had inadvertently made. Sometimes, it is not that talents are recruited when a position is vacant, but that talents exist first and then the position is vacant.

So what is Sun Ce good at?
Li Xiang kept responding to Sun Ce's past experiences...and his ideas became bolder and bolder!

……

Li Ji, who was thousands of miles away, naturally knew nothing about this, let alone that his son, who had only learned to hold his baby to pee for a few years, had already started trying to control people's hearts.

However, on the battlefield in Jingzhou, as the scouts of both sides continued to clash, the intelligence of both sides became clearer and more transparent.

After five days of confrontation across a distance of hundreds of miles, Yuan Shu confirmed many times that Li Ji had about 60,000 available soldiers. He was ecstatic and his confidence increased greatly. He reconvened all the civil and military officials to discuss matters.

As the intelligence about the Yangzhou Army was distributed to the civil and military officials, many of them showed joy on their faces.
