Driven away by Uncle Liu, Cao Cao worshiped me as a military adviser!

At that moment, the young Sun Shao poked his head out from the cabin.

Sun Shao is the only male among Sun Ce's four children.

It can be said that it is Sun Ce's only incense.

He is also Da Qiao's most beloved child.

Just because Sun Shao inherited the blood of her husband Sun Ce, he must be well protected.

The forces in Jiangdong are intricate and complicated. On the surface, they are of one heart and one mind, but in fact they have their own ghosts.

It was because of knowing this that Sun Ce passed the position of commander-in-chief to his younger brother Sun Quan before his death in 773, instead of the still young Sun Shao.

Because Sun Ce knew that if the seat was passed on to Sun Quan, the six counties in Jiangdong would still be stable.

If it is passed on to his own son, there is no guarantee that Da Qiao and Sun Shao, orphans and widowed mothers, will not become pawns of people with ulterior motives.

Therefore, not passing on the position to his son Sun Shao is the last tenderness left by Sun Ce to his wife and children.

Da Qiao once swore an oath before Sun Ce's deathbed.

No matter what, he will raise Sun Shao to a healthy adult, and he will not lose to anyone else.

Sun Shao poked his head out and asked suspiciously:

"Mother, where did my aunt go?"

Seeing his son's immature and lovely appearance, Da Qiao felt warm in his heart.

She hugged Sun Shao into her arms, rubbed Sun Shao's head and said:

"Your aunt went to find her own happiness."

"Mom, can I find my own happiness when I grow up?"

Da Qiao heard this and said with a smile:

"Yes, my Shao'er will definitely be able to!"

Although he said so, Da Qiao was still worried in his heart.

However, who can say what will happen in the future?

Furthermore, my uncle, Sun Quan, is also very kind to our mother and son.

I just hope my uncle can remember my husband's achievements in Jiangdong, and give Shao'er a fulfilling life.

"Mom, I'm hungry and want to eat the roasted hare my aunt sent me."

"Okay, mother feeds you."

"Mom, I miss Daddy."

Da Qiao sighed sadly, and it took a long time before he said:

"Mother misses your father too..."

"Shao'er, you must never forget that your father is a great hero!"

"Yes! Mother, I know, my father is a very powerful hero!"

…………

Jiangdong, Wuhou Mansion.

Is there any distinguished guest coming to the house today.

The Lu family of Wujun brought a thousand taels of gold, twelve boxes of jewels and emeralds, and one hundred bolts of silk and satin.

Mrs. Lu came here for no other reason.

This time, they are here to hire, and they want to match Lu Xun and Princess Sun Shangxiang!

……

There are few flowers, everyone sees how you work so hard, let's vote for a wave of flowers, thank you.

Chapter 82

Outside Wu Hou's mansion.

Carriages and horses were on the road, and the gifts from the next hire alone took up more than ten carriages.

It was Lu Xun and his father Lu Jun who came to propose marriage today.

Although Lu Jun is not a great talent, he is honest and trustworthy, and he is cherished by the nation.

In the six counties of Jiangdong, it has a high reputation.

Since this time was to propose marriage to the Princess of Jiangdong, the Lu family made it very grand.

For fear that others will not know their actions.

Zhu, Zhang, Gu, and Lu, the four major gentry families in Jiangdong, each had a great family and a great cause.

The power in Jiangdong can be said to be deeply rooted.

Similarly, they are also loyal supporters of the Sun family.

The Lu family where Lu Xun belongs is one of the four great noble families.

In terms of background alone, this marriage is a good match.

Lu Xun and his father Lu Jun went to the gate of Marquis Wu's mansion.

The two bowed and saluted, and presented a bright red and gold-plated post to the gatekeepers.

After the soldier took it, he walked quickly to the inner court.

The people from the Lu family came in too much haste, so there must be no delay in this matter.

After entering the inner court, soldiers dare not neglect in the slightest.

He trotted all the way to Wu Guotai's room.

"Reporting to the old lady, the Lu family Lu Jun and his son Lu Xun have come to propose marriage. This is an engagement invitation!"

Wu Guotai, who was resting in the room with her eyes closed, opened her eyes suddenly upon hearing this.

She immediately ordered someone to bring in the employment stickers.

Opening the engagement post, there are quite a lot of gift lists recorded on it.

One thousand taels of gold, twelve boxes of jewels and emeralds, one hundred bolts of silk and satin, and so on.

However, this is no more than a dowry.

There will be more betrothal gifts at the time of the big wedding.

Seeing this posture, the Lu family has made up their minds to marry Shang Xiang.

Sun Shangxiang is Wu Guotai's own daughter.

Wu Guotai knows her daughter's temperament best.

Although Lu Xun's family and talents are very good.

But the only downside is that it is too weak.

Although he is proficient in the art of war and strategy, he can't carry a knife and is not good at bowing a horse.

For this alone, in the eyes of his daughter Sun Shangxiang, he, Lu Xun, is just not popular.

Hey, what should I do about this marriage?

If he refuses immediately, it will refute the Lu family's face.

The Lu family has a great career in Jiangdong, and this time they came to propose a marriage with great momentum. If they refused immediately, it would spread to the ears of other gentry, and it would cause many unnecessary troubles.

But if she didn't refuse, with Shangxiang's character, she would never marry Lu Xun.

This is not a promise, nor is it not a promise.

Wu Guotai was caught in the middle and didn't know what to do.

In fact, Wu Guotai himself wanted to refuse.

After all, she already had a candidate for a good son-in-law in her heart.

Zhixing Chen Fan, he is the best candidate to be worthy of Sun Shangxiang.

Although Lu Xun is also very talented, compared with Chen Fan, he is still much inferior.

However, Chen Fan seemed to have evaporated from the world, and he could not be found anywhere.

There were even rumors that Chen Fan was dead.

Hey, if this is the case, then God is really jealous of talents.

If Chen Fan can't be found in a short time, why not just settle for the next best thing and accept the Lu family's marriage proposal?

After careful consideration, Wu Guotai finally decided to ask Sun Shangxiang personally.

If Shang Xiang refuses to agree, then it is better to persuade her.

If it doesn't work, then you can only take one step at a time.

With this in mind, Wu Guotai leaned on a cane, stood up and said:

"Help me out〃'."

…………

Outside the gate of Marquis Wu's Mansion.

Lu Jun and his son Lu Xun have been waiting for a while.

However, no one responded for a long time.

Lu Xun was puzzled, and he asked:

"Father, after such a long delay, could it be that the old lady did not agree to this marriage?"

Lu Jun shook his head and said:

"Based on the words and deeds of the princess, I am afraid that no one in Jiangdong has come to propose marriage."

"My Lu family is a famous family, and you have a strategy in mind."

"The old lady has no reason to refuse."

"Furthermore, my Jiangdong Lu family is also one of the four great gentry families."

"If you can form a family with my Lu family, then the power of the lord in Jiangdong will not be what it used to be."

"Son, don't worry, this marriage will definitely come true."

The two were talking, when Wu Guotai's voice suddenly came from the house.

Lu Jun and his son Lu Xun hurriedly shut up and waited quietly.

Not long after, the door opened.

Wu Guotai came to the door with the help of the maidservant.

Lu Jun and Lu Xun hurriedly saluted:

"Minister Lu Jun."

"Minister Lu Xun."

"I met the old lady."

Wu Guotai nodded.

She returned the engagement sticker in her hand.

This move stunned the father and son of the Lu family.

Refund the offer?

Is this a public refusal?

When the Lu family father and son were puzzled, Wu Guotai said:

"Jiangdong's Lu family is a rich family of scholars, and we, Shang Xiang, are well-matched."

"Lu Xun is a young talent with a strategy in his stomach, and he is also a rare talent."
