Three Kingdoms: Do you want me to get out of here? Liu Bei, you wait

Chapter 168: The enraged Liu Bei is determined to stop Su Chen from marrying Sun Shangxiang? ?
Jiangxia.

Liu Bei looked at the spirit tablet of Madam Gan in front of him and sighed continuously.

This situation has been going on for almost an hour.

Zhuge Liang, who had been silent, also felt a little uncomfortable with it, so he stood up and took the initiative to persuade them.

"My lord, please be patient and take care of your health."

"We should always think positively about everything. Madam Gan was bedridden and suffered from pain. Her passing away is a relief."

Liu Bei said, "My wife and I have been by each other's side for decades, sharing weal and woe, and now she has passed away just like that... Military Advisor, I am deeply saddened and it is really hard to dispel this sadness.

Right now, there is no one around me to whom I can confide my feelings. The night is long and the light is bright..."

Liu Bei's eyes were filled with tears.

He turned and looked at Zhuge Liang.

Being swept by his eyes.

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but shudder, and a chill surged in his heart.

He immediately bowed and was about to say, "Find another good wife for Liu Bei."

suddenly--

A scholar came running in from outside the government office and interrupted their conversation.

"My lord, urgent news from Dongwu! Urgent news from Dongwu!"

The person who spoke was Sun Qian.

He can be considered an old man around Liu Bei.

Because of this, Liu Bei did not lose his temper directly. Instead, he looked at him and sighed helplessly.

"What does Gongyou mean?"

"Didn't I say that I would not attend to government affairs during Madam Gan's funeral? Why are you bothering me with Dongwu's affairs?"

"Yes, my eldest brother has set his sights on Xichuan. No matter how much the Jiangdong Sun Quan and Cao Cao fight to the death, it has nothing to do with us. Could it be that you secretly accepted someone's benefits to act as a lobbyist, and intend to force my eldest brother to be a scapegoat for his Jiangdong Sun Quan?"

After hearing this, Zhang Fei echoed from behind.

Seeing the two of them like this, Sun Qian hurriedly explained.

"General Zhang, what are you talking about? Gongyou has never had any rebellious thoughts since he followed the lord. The reason why I came here specially to inform you is because of the matter of Qilin Talent."

After hearing this, the people who had looked unhappy just now were all shocked.

asked quickly.

"Qilin Talent? Wasn't it said to be a matter of Dongwu? How did it get linked to Qilin Talent again?"

Sun Qian said, "A secret letter came from the Eastern Wu saying that Sun Quan, Sun Zhongmou, intends to recruit a talented scholar as his son-in-law and marry his younger sister, Sun Shangxiang, to him. This is a delaying tactic to ease the conflict between the Eastern Wu and Cao's camp."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Bei jumped up from where he was.

"What did you say? Sun Quan actually wants to marry off his sister? And he wants to marry her to the traitor Su Chen. Doesn't he know that Su Chen is a pervert? Will there be any good results if he marries his sister to such a man?"

He looked excited.

For some reason, a surge of inexplicable anger surged in my heart.

Although he had never seen Sun Shangxiang before today, it was even the first time he heard her name.

But I just felt that the most important thing in my life was taken away by Su Chen.

Look at how he overreacted.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei standing by naturally misunderstood and immediately started to persuade them.

"Marriage has always been decided by parents and matchmakers. Brother, military advisor, why are you so angry?"

"That's right. The main thing is that there's no point in getting angry. How can we interfere in Dong Wu's family affairs? Su Chen can marry whoever he wants. What does it have to do with us?
Could it be that Big Brother is still obsessed with Mi Zhen?"

"There are always beauties in the world, big brother. If it doesn't work out, I will go and select seven or eight beauties to serve you tonight. This will make up for your loneliness after Madam Gan passed away."

Especially Zhang Fei. He even moved closer to Liu Bei when he spoke, and his voice was even a little teasing.

When Liu Bei heard this, his face immediately turned serious. He was unwilling to admit that he was jealous.

He opened his mouth immediately and said angrily.

"Third brother, who do you think Jiang Bei is?

Do you think I am jealous of Su Yu for enjoying all the happiness? I am worried that Cao Cao and Sun Quan will become friends because of this, which will be troublesome."

Look at him like this.

Zhang Fei was naturally confused.

With some confusion, he asked again.

"Isn't it a delaying tactic?"

Guan Yu said, "Yes, Cao Cao intends to unify the world and has long been eyeing the Jiangdong base. How could he really agree to an alliance between the two families? Sun Quan should also be well aware of this. Otherwise, he would not have allowed Zhou Yu to join us to form the Sun-Liu alliance to fight Cao Cao, right?"

Seeing the two of them like this, Liu Bei was speechless.

Fortunately, before Liu Bei could reply, Zhuge Liang beside him had already asked back,

"We can all see at a glance that this is a delaying tactic. With the intelligence of that talented scholar, can't he see it? Why do you think he would take the risk and go to Jiangdong alone?"

"This……"

Zhang Fei was speechless.

Guan Yu, who had read the Spring and Autumn Annals, finally reacted and said,
"Brother and the military advisor are worried that this talented scholar will take advantage of the situation and win over the hearts of the people in Jiangdong, laying the foundation for the army to march in and unify the north and the south in the future?"

"Is this... possible?" Zhang Fei questioned. "After all, that is Jiangdong, the base of Sun Quan. Moreover, after three generations, the people's hearts have long been loyal to him. If not, there wouldn't have been so many soldiers of the Eastern Wu fighting desperately at Sanjiangkou before, right?"

Zhuge Liang said, "If it was someone else, the possibility would naturally be small. But the person who did it this time is a talented scholar... We must be on guard against this."

"Yeah, this Su thief... is indeed quite quick-witted."

After Liu Bei finished speaking, he sighed deeply.

Although it has been quite some time since the incident in Nanjun.

But every time he thought that the talented Qilin man he admired so much and that Su Chen were actually the same person.

His heart was filled with mixed feelings, becoming extremely complicated.

But this was before he could think about it further.

Kong Ming spoke up and offered him some advice.
"It is precisely because of this that we should stop it. The lord has a history with that old man Qiao. We might as well send envoy Sun Qian to Dongwu and have him pay a visit to old man Qiao and entrust him to mediate..."

"Let Mr. Qiao interfere?"

Liu Bei was moved.

Then he thought of something and became worried, so he asked,

"Will this work? Although Qiao Guolao is the father-in-law of Sun Ce and Zhou Gongjin, the one in power today is Sun Quan, not Sun Ce. Will his words... work?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said with confidence.

“When it comes to national affairs, Qiao Guolao is naturally useless, but the matter of Sun Shangxiang is, strictly speaking, Sun Quan’s family affair.

When it comes to family affairs, even Sun Zhongmou cannot avoid Wu Guotai's arrangements. And Qiao Guolao and Wu Guotai are old acquaintances and relatives, so their words still carry some weight."

"Is this so..."

"Then Gongyou, I have to trouble you with this matter. No matter what, you must not let this Su thief and Miss Sun get married. Oh, no... No matter what, you must not let his Dongwu become famous. That's the truth."

Liu Bei thought it made sense and turned to look at Sun Qian beside him.

His eyes were filled with anticipation.

"My lord, rest assured, Gongyou will not fail in your mission!"

Upon seeing this, Sun Qian bowed.

He then turned around and walked out with big strides.
