The Three Kingdoms Voyage

Chapter 220 Pirate Empire Red Apricot Leaving the Wall
"Impossible?" Sun Quan looked at Sun Deng with his lips tightly shut, and asked back.

"Impossible." Sun Deng nodded vigorously: "I feel that this policy is honest and treacherous, and it is suspected of embarrassing the father."

"Oh?" Sun Quan sat up in surprise, raised his hand to let Sun Deng sit beside him, picked up a strand of hair on Sun Deng's shoulder with his thin big hand, handed it to Gu Li, and then patted it lightly. Shooting, as if to dust off Sun Deng.Sun Deng was moved for a while, his mouth moved, and then he calmed down again.

The change in his expression fell into Sun Quan's eyes, and Sun Quan smiled faintly: "Tell me, how can you be honest and treacherous, and how can you put me in an embarrassing position."

"Here." Sun Deng responded respectfully: "In my opinion, this letter of his must not only be given to the father, but also passed to the ears of Zhu Lu, Gu Lu and others through other means. If the father follows the policy, then they are not grateful to the father, but to the king of Yue. If the father does not follow the policy, then the father will become a person who is stingy in the eyes of the Zhu family, and the Zhu family will inevitably envy Kuaiji The treatment of the various families, regardless of the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers. Therefore, no matter what the father and king do, it will cause the monarch and ministers of our Wu Kingdom to renounce."

Sun Quan nodded silently, and looked at Sun Deng full of satisfaction and admiration. Sun Deng's heart felt hot when he saw it, and he couldn't help puffing out his chest.Which son doesn't want to get his father's satisfied eyes?Although Sun Deng has experienced many things, he is still only a 14-year-old boy after all. The reason why he hates Sun Quan is because Sun Quan abandoned him first. He works hard and actually hopes to get Sun Quan's approval.Now that he has got all of this, how can he not make him feel proud.

"Zigao, I am very happy that you are not deceived by him. Zigao, I am not as good as him, but I hope you can surpass him."

"Father..." Sun Deng nodded excitedly, with a nasal voice.Suddenly, he felt a little guilty. He was actually deceived by Sun Shao, and he was an enemy of his biological father. What a stupid move.

"Then how do you think we should handle this matter?" Sun Quan asked calmly. He had been asking Sun Deng how to deal with it. A young man who is strong and competitive, and protects the weak.Once Sun Deng thinks that he is a victim, the influence of all Sun Shao's previous actions will gradually weaken, and even become another kind of reaction.

It's just that Sun Quan felt a little sad. As the king of Wu, many heroes were defeated by him. Even people like Cao Cao and Liu Bei couldn't do anything to him. In the end, he actually wanted to use this method on his son. , the reason is just some random actions of Sun Shao.He was suddenly worried that these preparations he had carefully planned would be easily deciphered by Sun Shao at that time, and then he would fight back and push himself into a deeper trap?

For a moment, Sun Quan lost confidence and was lost in thought.Fortunately, Sun Deng only focused on describing his plan and didn't notice these.

"My son thinks that this strategy can be discussed with the ministers. Firstly, it can test their minds, and secondly, it can also announce his sinister intentions to the public. Jiangdong is full of talents, and there must be many visionary people. If everyone If the ministers think it is not possible, then naturally there is no need for the father to bear the criticism. If the ministers think it is feasible, they can also consider it and weigh each other so as not to lose control. In this way, whether it is successful or not, it will not damage the sageness of the father, but on the contrary. You can open up your voice to identify Jiangdong's people."

"Very good." Sun Quan patted Sun Deng on the shoulder very satisfied: "Zigao, you have really grown up."

"Father, this is Zhuge Jin's father and son's idea, and my son is just relaying it." Sun Deng quickly took a step back and replied with a bow.

"If you have meritorious service but don't live there, you have someone to be your master." Sun Quan nodded again and again, with a smile on his lips. It seemed that it was right to put Zhuge Jin, father and son, by Sun Deng's side.From the very beginning, he expected that Zhuge Jin and his son would not agree to this plan-obviously, this plan was very unfavorable to the Huaisi courtiers. "I'm very happy that Zhuge Jin taught well. Zigao, how about letting you be your young master?"

Sun Deng was very happy. Zhugejin and his son were his confidantes, and rewarding Zhugejin as the prince's young assistant was tantamount to strengthening his strength.

"Zhuge Ke is talented, but unfortunately he is too young. Let him go out to practice in a few years." Sun Quan twisted his beard and nodded frequently: "Zigao, you should pay more attention to talents. Both sons are good, and you have the opportunity to get in touch with them more.”

Sun Deng understood and knew that it was false to say Bu Zhi's son, and it was true to let him get along well with Bu Zhi.Like Zhuge Jin, Buzhi is from Huaisi. After making great contributions in Jiaozhou, he now has more than 1 elite soldiers stationed in the border of Jingjiao. Mrs. Bu has no sons. This is a force worth wooing.More importantly, Sun Quan asked him to make friends with Bu Zhi, which was purely for him, and it can be considered that Sun Quan was paving the way for him to succeed.

Sun Deng left happily.He told Zhugejin and his son what Sun Quan meant, and Zhugejin and his son were also very happy. Obviously, in order to prevent the Jiangdong family from growing up, Sun Quan began to reuse them, the outsiders from Huaisi.

Sun Quan entrusted Sun Deng to summon a group of ministers and published Sun Shao's letter. The ministers had their own concerns and discussed a lot, but the Gu family and the Lu family who were on the cusp of the storm were reluctant to say anything. On the contrary, they could only avoid suspicion. It's hard for everyone to say anything, especially Zhang Wen, who was criticized by Sun Shao by name, and it's even harder to say anything at this time.Of course, with his intelligence, he knew Sun Shao's intentions well, so he was not excited at all, but quietly waited for Sun Quan's result.

At this moment, he met Zhuge Jun.

When Zhang Wen was on an envoy to the Kingdom of Shu, he hit it off with Zhuge Liang. In his words, if anyone in the Kingdom of Shu can be called a capable minister, then Zhuge Liang must be ranked first.This sentence actually offended both Liu Bei and Guan Yu intentionally or unintentionally, because the one Liu Bei trusts most now is not Zhuge Liang, but Guan Yu.Guan Yu, as the general of the Shu Kingdom, can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand people. Although Zhuge Liang is the prime minister, he is still under Guan Yu in his seat.When Zhang Wen later met Liu Bei, he intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the heroic deeds of Guan Yu and Sun Shao teaming up to destroy the army in Nanyang. After that, Liu Bei hesitated for a long time and made a decision to let the prince Liu Chan marry the former general Zhang Fei. daughter.

Although Guan Yu was very nervous, he could still understand the meaning of this move. He couldn't blame Liu Bei, but his relationship with Zhuge Liang became worse because of it. In his view, it was Zhuge Liang's influence on Liu Bei through Zhang Wen.This move can only make the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Zhang Wen closer, so this time Zhuge Jun was ordered to go to Yue State, and when he passed Jianye, he specially came to visit Zhang Wen, and his biological brother Zhuge Jin was still behind.

Zhang Wenwen and Zhuge Jun were very affectionate as soon as they met.After Zhuge Jun explained his purpose, Zhang Wen was very curious: "Do you have cooperation between Shu and Yue?"

"That's right." Zhuge Jun said with a smile: "The King of Yue has a plan to develop a powerful machine. He is short of manpower, so he wants to join forces with me in Shuzhong. They pay for the land, and we pay for some people and money." After success, dividends will be distributed according to the amount invested." He paused, and then said: "We have received news that Wei Guo has also received an invitation and is selecting talents and sending them to Yue State soon. Why, Wu Guo did not Invited?"

Zhang Wen shook his head, thinking that the Sun family's uncle and nephew almost got into a fight a while ago, how could there be such cooperation.However, Wei and Shu both sent personnel, and if Wu Guo stayed out of the matter, not to mention the future dividends, it would be a very bad thing for outsiders to see that the Sun family's uncle and nephew were at odds.The last time the Sun family's uncle and nephew turned against each other, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were all frontier soldiers. Their sinister intentions are self-evident. After the first time, how do you know there will be a second time?

"What kind of machine is it? It can make your Shu and Wei countries fall in love with each other?"

"I'm not too sure about this." Zhuge Jun smirked and shook his head. If Wu Guo also sent someone to participate, of course he could reveal some news. If Wu Guo did not participate, he would not be interested.Originally, Sun Shao invited his sister-in-law to go, but Zhuge Liang thought it was inconvenient for women to go out, so he sent him instead.According to my sister-in-law, this machine is very difficult, but if it can be successfully developed, the impact will be huge, and it is worth investing considerable manpower and material resources.

Zhang Wen knew that Zhuge Jun was lying, so he didn't want to ask again. He changed the subject and talked about the clairvoyance developed by Zhuge Liang.Zhuge Jun is an honest man. He said honestly that the clairvoyance developed by Zhuge Liang was inspired by Sun Shao, and the clairvoyance developed by Sun Shao is much better than that developed by Zhuge Liang.Judging from the comprehensive news from various channels, in the next few years, the Yue Kingdom will still maintain considerable advantages in these aspects. It is precisely because of this consideration that Zhuge Liang suggested that Liu Bei and Sun Shao cooperate and send them to participate in this project. Mechanical research and development.

Zhang Wen didn't say a word. He knew about the clock sent to Sun Quan by the Yue Kingdom. Although he didn't see the clock with his own eyes, he heard people say that the timing of this clock was much more accurate than that of a clepsydra or an hourglass. The mechanism is very complicated. Sun Quan sent Shang Fangling to study it for a long time, but he still didn't understand the reason behind it.

"Go see your brother and tell him the news." Zhang Wen said to Zhuge Jun.

Zhuge Jun agreed, even if Zhang Wen didn't take care of him, he would tell Zhuge Jin.Before coming, Zhuge Liang told him that this matter was not only related to profit, but also related to reputation, and Zhuge Jin would come forward to inform Sun Quan of this news, which would make Zhuge Jin's status in Sun Quan's mind even higher.

After Zhuge Jin heard the news, he quickly understood the meaning. He immediately found an opportunity to tell Sun Deng about it, and then Sun Deng passed it on to Sun Quan.Sun Quan gritted his teeth with hatred, and said nonchalantly, since this is the case, you should discuss it with King Sun Shao of Yue to see if our country of Wu can also join in, and if possible, send a group of craftsmen nearby Bar.

Sun Deng immediately complied and discussed the matter with Zongzheng Sun Song and Changle Weiwei Zhou Yin who were on a mission in Wu.Sun Song admitted that there was indeed such a thing, but the reason why Wu Guo was not invited was because the two sides were at odds with each other at that time, and there was no possibility of cooperation at all.Sun Deng didn't say anything, but expressed his willingness to join the cooperation.Sun Song agreed to go back and ask for instructions, but the King of Yue went out to conquer the sea, and there might be no reply for a while. The state of Wu can select personnel first, and participate as soon as there is a reply.Finally, Sun Song comforted Sun Deng, saying that this matter cannot be completed in a day or two. You can know how difficult it is from the fact that he mobilized so many people, and it will not be too late even if you wait another half a year.In any case, if you can't write two grandson characters in one stroke, Wuyue is still a family after all.

Sun Deng smiled.

Then Zhou Yin quickly stopped him from laughing, and he told Sun Deng that Zhou Yu was ill, very seriously ill, and the marriage probably won't work out for a while.

Sun Deng was in a hurry.Ever since he saw Zhou Yu in Sun Shao's mansion five years ago, he has been attracted by Zhou Yu. At that time, he didn't understand the relationship between a man and a woman. In the story, I like Zhou Yu's poems and essays. As he grows older, his feelings for Zhou Yu gradually change, from pure liking to desire to possess.He had always hoped that he would grow up faster, be able to perform the coronation ceremony earlier, and be able to marry Zhou Yu sooner. This was finally on the agenda. Why was Zhou Yu sick again?
Facing Sun Deng's questioning, Zhou Yin murmured and talked about him, but the second monk Sun Dengzhang couldn't figure it out, so he had to hide his anxiety in his heart, and went back to report the result of the discussion with Sun Song to Sun Quan.Sun Quan saw the clues from his expression, cross-examined, and Sun Deng, who was absent-minded, showed his flaws in a few words. Sun Quan rolled his eyes, and then he had an idea. He said to Sun Deng, I will ask someone to ask, Don't be in a hurry.

Within a few days, the person Sun Quan sent to inquire heard back. It is said that this matter is related to Yue Wang Sun Shao. The evidence is a worn-out handwritten book. The "New Book of Mountains and Seas" is basically the same, the difference is that this book is a manuscript, and the illustrations are also hand-painted.Judging from the degree of wear and tear of this book, Zhou Yu loves this book very much, even to the point of being inseparable.

Sun Quan could recognize the characters in the book, and so could Sun Deng. The father and son were very angry.Sun Deng was annoyed that the eldest brother he regarded as a benefactor actually wanted to rob the woman he liked, and Sun Quan was even more annoyed that Sun Shao not only wanted to rob his son's woman, but also disrespected Xiaoqiao he coveted. Who is the heartbroken man on the last page?Of course it was Sun Shao. He was in Hainan at that time, but it was the ends of the earth.

If this person really knows how to associate, Sun Quan associates the song Tianjingsha with Xiaoqiao, and soon associates Xiaoqiao with Daqiao. He is even more furious. Daqiao would rather die than obey him. For Sun Shao, she saw After passing him a few times, after Sun Shao was safe, she returned to that frosty look.

"Do you still want to marry her?" Sun Quan suppressed the anger in his heart and said calmly to Sun Deng.

Sun Deng gritted his teeth and nodded: "Marry!"

Sun Quan was very surprised. He stared at Sun Deng for a long time: "Zigao, she is very sick. I don't think she has you in her heart. You can read this book. This book is for you. What happened after the marriage proposal..."

"I want to marry her." Sun Deng gritted his teeth, his eyes showed a venomous light: "He can't always get everything he wants."

Sun Quan was stunned for a while, then realized that the two "he" did not refer to the same person.Seeing Sun Deng's undisguised hatred when he mentioned Sun Shao, he smiled gratifiedly: "Okay! Since you like it, then I will marry her back for you."

……

Zhou Yu rushed into Xiaoqiao's room with disheveled hair, his panicked look made Xiaoqiao jump when he was checking the dowry.

"Ayu, what's wrong with you?"

"That book is gone." Zhou Yu's eyes were terrified, and he covered his heaving chest with his hands, looking anxiously at Xiaoqiao.

"What book?" Xiaoqiao looked at Zhou Yu reproachfully: "The New Classic of Mountains and Seas? If you lose it, just throw it away. If you like it, just go to the market and buy another one."

"It's not that book, it's "Southbound Essays"."

"Silly boy, isn't "Southward Journey Essay" the same as "New Classic of Mountains and Seas"?" Before Xiaoqiao finished speaking, his voice lowered, and his eyes showed a frightened light: "When did you find out that it was missing? Would you Where will it be forgotten?"

"I will never forget, I kept it under the pillow all the time." Zhou Yu said out of breath, opened his eyes wide, and looked at Xiaoqiao helplessly.

"There's no reason for that." Xiaoqiao's face sank, her face showing a look of anger, she was about to ask someone to interrogate her, but she was stopped by Zhou Yu: "Mum, do you think it was the secret soldiers under the king's tent who did it? "

Xiaoqiao groaned, walked back and forth nervously twice in the room, sat down on the edge of the bed, and kept stirring his hands together.She had heard from Zhou Xun that Sun Quan had secret soldiers under the command of Hu Zong, Shi Yi, and Xu Xiang, who were responsible for those shady things.In the last proton incident, these three people were also severely punished, because the assassins came and went freely in the Wu Palace, but they, the secret soldiers, didn't get any news.If it is said that they stole the "Southward Journey Essays" from the Zhou family in order to pay off the crime, it is obviously more reasonable.

"Why did they focus on our house?" Xiaoqiao scolded a little irritably: "It must be that Lizi Ayin talking nonsense, call him here, and I will ask him properly."

Zhou Yin came soon, and Zhou Xun also came. When they heard the news, they were all stunned.If this incident was really done by secret soldiers, then the Zhou family would be in danger.

"I never said this, I just said that Ayu is ill, very sick, and may not be able to get married for the time being." Zhou Yin turned pale with anxiety, and vehemently denied: "I never said "Southbound Essays" "things."

"Whether you said it or not, it doesn't matter now." Zhou Xun calmed down first, "Ayu, go look for it again. If this book is missing, don't make a fuss. If it leaks out, it will hurt my Zhou family. have a bad reputation."

"Then... what should we do then?" Xiaoqiao panicked.

"Don't worry." Zhou Xun's face turned pale, but he was still calm. He bit his lip and thought for a moment: "If it was really done by secret soldiers, then the king will definitely respond. Prince..." He glanced Zhou Yu, whose face was as pale as Suwan's, said, "I won't marry a woman who has someone else in her heart."

Zhou Yu stared at Zhou Xun in a daze. Zhou Xun's words were like a needle that pierced her heart fiercely. She never expected that she would become a woman who would shame her family.If Sun Quan proposes to regret the marriage now, what will she do with herself?Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xun, and suddenly his throat sweetened, and the people and things in front of him shook.

"Ayu—" Xiaoqiao embraced Zhou Xun and Zhou Yin together. Zhou Yin watched anxiously, picked up Zhou Yu, and sent her back to the room.Looking at Zhou Yu's pale face, Xiao Qiao burst into tears, Zhou Xun remained silent, but Zhou Yin turned back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, finally he stood in front of Xiao Qiao fiercely, and said viciously: " This is the end of the matter, don't think too much, if you don't do it, if you don't stop, I will take Ayu away and take him to the Yue Kingdom."

"Nonsense!" Zhou Xun yelled angrily, "You take her away, how can we explain to the king?"

"Confession, confession, confession?" Zhou Yin retorted, "If you didn't regret the marriage because you saw the danger of the elder brother, how could you have come to this point? Ayu only has the elder brother in his heart, don't you know? It's you, you only care about it. For my own future, I not only wronged myself to marry Sun Luban, who I didn’t like at all, but also wronged Ayu to marry that Shuzi Sun Deng. That Shuzi was only 14 years old and he was hypocritical. Who knows what the future will be like? This kind of life Not long, with too many thoughts, I will definitely live forever!"

"Slap!" Before Zhou Yin finished speaking, Xiaoqiao raised her hand and slapped him. She turned pale anxiously: "Little calamity, you caused the disaster, and you are still blaming others? If you didn't run away If you didn’t tell the prince that Ayu was sick and couldn’t get married, why would the secret soldiers target our family? You’re still talking nonsense and cursing the prince, don’t you think it’s not enough to harm the Zhou family?”

"I harmed the Zhou family?" Zhou Yin covered his burning face, stared at Xiaoqiao, then looked at the silent Zhou Xun, and suddenly let out a wild laugh: "Hahaha... I harmed the Zhou family? I harmed the Zhou family ?Okay, I’m leaving now, I have nothing to do with you from now on, I’ll be my Changle Weiwei, and see what kind of wealth you can have in the Wu Kingdom in the end.” After finishing speaking, he strode out the door and walked away .

Xiaoqiao and Zhou Xun were dumbfounded. After a moment of hesitation, Zhou Xun ran out, pulled him back before Zhou Xun went out, and said in a low voice: "Zhongying, mother is so angry for a while, you won't even kill your own. Your biological mother won’t even forgive me, right?”

"Understand?" Zhou Yinyu was still angry, and said aggrievedly: "When did you take me seriously? If you have credit, it's all yours. If there's a problem, it's all mine. Did I persuade you at the beginning?" ?You just don’t listen, you don’t have any confidence in your elder brother. How are you doing now? You’ve exhausted all your tricks, and you’ve lost Qingqing’s life. You’re just too smart, so smart that you don’t recognize your relatives, so smart that your sisters turn against each other, and so smart that your brothers turn against each other. You You said you stayed well in Wancheng, why did you run back? If you didn’t run back, would you be in such a dilemma now? You deserve it, you deserve it, you deserve it, you can’t blame others.”

It was the first time in Zhou Xunping's life that he was scolded by Zhou Yin and his face was red. He burst into anger, but he didn't dare to explode, so he had to listen to Zhou Yin's scolding.Now he regrets Mo Die. When he was in Wancheng, if he hadn't abandoned Sun Shao and returned to Jianye, he would probably be an important minister of Yue Kingdom now.
