Chapter 42

: Tool man becomes father-in-law

Author: Yang's Good Son

: Tool man becomes father-in-law

Danglikou, where Zhang Ying stationed his troops, is an important place on the riverside on the north bank of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

The purge of Sun Ce here means that Liu Yao's Yangtze River defense line has completely collapsed, and then Sun Ce's army entered the stage of conquering the city and territorial territory.

At this time, as long as Sun Ce does not encounter major military setbacks and has a steady stream of army replenishment, he will inevitably push his sphere of influence eastward.

And this trend can be seen clearly by all forces in Danyang County.

So after Sun Ce defeated Zhang Ying, he led his personal guards to the south and arrived at Wanling County, the capital of Danyang County.

Wu Jing's army had quelled the rebellion in the south of Danyang County and was returning to the north, and was stationed in Wanling County.

Sun Ce came to the army in person to meet with Zhou Shang, the prefect of Danyang.

In this situation, how could Sun Ce not get the strong support of the Zhou family?

Whether it is for public or private, Zhou Shang, the prefect of Danyang County, should fund him a large amount of troops, horses, money and food to help him expel Liu Yao's power and expand the territory of Yuan Shu's power.

The Sun family and the Zhou family had a family friendship, and Sun Ce even went to the church to worship his mother. In this era, he was already a loyal relative.

This meeting was both a public meeting and a private visit. Zhou Yu led his troops to set up Qinglu outside Wanling City, and Zhou set up a curtain, and the two sides attended the talks.

Zhou Shang, the prefect of Danyang, wore a soap suit, paired with silver seals and green ribbons. He was elegant and elegant, and was a typical scholar-official.

Sun Ce was even more fond of Zhou Shang because he was a generous person. He would not have to hand over the entire Danyang County to Yuan Yin by the end of this year, and then successfully fell into Sun Ce's hands.

So after the ceremony, Sun Ce made a generous promise: "Shi Bo, I was taken care of by the nobles for a long time when I was in Shu County. If I had not been to the help of Shi Bo, it would be even more difficult to succeed. I have no choice but to lead the army to help Shi Bo clear away all the powerful Liang Xiaoxiao in Danyang who is disrespectful to the county government, and help Shi Bo completely control the entire Danyang."

Zhou Shang was shocked when he sat opposite Sun Ce for a moment. He really didn't expect Sun Ce to speak so heroically and generously, and came just to repay his kindness.

Sun Ce made a promise with confidence: "Shi Bo can rest assured that after I capture Danyang, as long as I have enough troops, I will immediately attack Danyang and leave Gongjin to return to Danyang. Even if I have more than 10,000 soldiers under my command, I will all be handed over to Danyang County after the autumn harvest."

Zhou Yu, who was standing by Sun Ce's promise, was shocked and said, "Why is Bo Fu so much? I have never heard of you having such plans before, these are your foundation."

Sun Ce waved his hand and made a generous speech: "The nobles once helped each other, but now it is time for my Sun family to repay me. As long as Shi Bo is still in charge of Danyang, I will fully support Shi Bo to control the entire county. I only want to be Shi Bo's pioneer, help Shi Bo clear the strong enemies in the county as soon as possible, and expel Liu Yao's generals."

Of course, if Zhou Shang handed over Danyang County to someone else and led his Zhou family members to leave Danyang, then this would naturally be a matter of no reason. If someone else manages Danyang, he will take it back this year.

Zhou Shang saw that Sun Ce was full of words and was very generous, and was moved by his aspirations. Funding for Sun Ce was just a convenient move for Zhou. But now the other party has committed life and death and territory. He is willing to lead his army to fight, clear all the unofficial forces in Danyang for himself and resist Liu Yao's persecution.

So Zhou Shang said, "Bo Fu is so kind and kind, he is a hero of the world. Since you want to clear Danyang and drive out powerful enemies for me, I will support you in three thousand soldiers and 30,000 stones of grain. It is not only a plan for General Yuan to explore Jiangdong, but also my support for you as a uncle, to establish your army and establish your own army."

Sun Ce immediately stood up and bowed and said, "I thank the Lord Shi Dao to help me conquer Jiangdong. If I succeed in the future, I will repay the merits and virtues. I will always be good."

Zhou Shang raised his head and looked at the young man who was shocked by the sun. He felt the excitement in his heart. Finally, he understood why General Yuan sighed: "If you have a son like a grandson, why hate if you die!"

Such a heroic figure is not a junior of his own relatives, which is so regrettable.

Zhou Shang said sincerely: "It's a pity that Bo Fu already has a wife, otherwise I will betroth your little daughter to you to make the favor of Qin and Jin."

Sun Ce's smile froze on his face. It's broken, so he won't use too much force, right? This wave of favorable feelings has been too much! He has never thought of turning the tool man into a father-in-law. Then Zhou Yu has changed from childhood to a relative of the foreigner?

Zhou Yu, who was standing aside, looked very moved and spoke sincerely to Zhou Shang: "Uncle, Bo Fu values ​​love and righteousness. With the relationship between my two families, my younger sister will never be treated unfairly. My younger sister is in a special situation and is already nineteen years old and it is difficult to meet a good match. Does my uncle want my younger sister not to marry after 20 years old? Or will she marry some villains who are greedy for the reputation and wealth of our clan?"

Zhou Shang's brows were tightly twisted together, and he stroked his chin and beard and thought deeply.

The Zhou family is not an ordinary family or a local hero, but a real family of nobles! Two generations of people in the clan served as the Grand Marshals among the Three Dukes, and their prestige was only slightly weaker than the Yuan family of the Four Dukes.

Even before the great general Dou Xian lent Shi Yanran and the Southern Xiongnu completely surrendered, the ancestors of the Zhou clan had already served as the governor of the state and the prefect of the county. Finally, they served as the Minister of the Emperor of the Two Dynasties, and were in charge of the entire Secretary of the Shangshu.

Later, many talents emerged in the clan, and some people were appointed as ministers and ministers of the court for generations, and they were envoys from the local government for two hundred years.

In such a family of officials, the daughter naturally has no worries about marrying, and it is even more impossible for her to marry someone as a concubine.

Just as Zhou Yu said, those who only want to marry Zhou's reputation and power are like crucian carpies crossing the river, no matter how beautiful or ugly it is.

But Zhou Shang really did not want to marry his beloved daughter to such a person with ulterior motives as his wife.

But if you want to marry the sons of other ministers as your wife, your love for your daughter is really too special, and it is difficult for ordinary men to accept it.

Sun Ce looked at Zhou Shang's frowning and thinking hard, and he felt even more amazed. Zhou Yu, don't you have an ugly sister like Huang A Chou, right?

I am not Zhuge Liang! Kong Ming can ignore the folk songs in the country: "Don't be Kong Ming's choice of a wife, you're the ugly girl." I can't do it! Jiangdong Mei Sun Lang, if he marrys an ugly girl, he will not be laughed to death?

And I am very dedicated and only like various beauties with thin waists and long legs!

So Sun Ce bowed and said, "Why do you want a real man to be a family if he has not made a name for his achievements? And there is no determination in life, life, misfortune and fortune, how can you dare to mislead the ladies of your family?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu sighed regretfully, and felt very regretful: "Oh. My sister's seven feet and six inches tall is really a problem. If Bo Fu is unintentional, it is indeed not advisable to force her. It is just that it will be difficult for her to meet a good match again."

Sun Ce just breathed a sigh of relief and put down his hand suddenly raised it, grabbed Zhou Yu's hands tightly, and spoke righteously and firmly, without doubt: "Gongjin's words are so wrong! How can you say such a cold word with such a warm mouth? What does it mean to force it? You and I have always been divided into flesh and blood, and they are as close as a family. In your home, how can I sit back and wait and see?"

Even if he slapped himself in the face in this wave, Sun Ce would admit it!

Whether it is a lady or not is not important. The key is that a hero like Sun Ce who is grateful for his kindness must not be cold-hearted by nature watching Zhou face difficulties!

A 7-foot-6-inch lady!

This is Sun Ce’s favorite range! He is over 175 and has a floating range of about 2.3 cm per inch, which means she is between 177 and 179. As a result, she is also a 178 cm tall lady. Moreover, she is only 19 years old. As long as she feeds her herself, she may have a second spring, breaking through 180 cm.

This is simply a stunning beauty on earth!

Li Qingzhao got married at the age of 19. Her married life in her twenties was the most beautiful year in her life, and the poems were full of youthful hormones.

Sun Ce didn't care about Zhou's daughter at all, let alone her height of over 175.

This is not that she is too weird, it can only prove from the side that she has a wealthy family and is well-educated and well-educated!

Height is indeed affected by a little genes, but the most important factor is life and diet. Good diet, and people have grown from 1.5 meters to 1.7 meters in a few generations.

The Celestial Empire only used three generations, and the height of men generally increased from 1.6 meters to 1.8 meters or even 1.9 meters.

Unlike the general peasants in the later Celestial Empire, the second generation of people had just initially solved the problem of food and clothing. The Zhou family had been the ministers of the Zhou family, even in this feudal era, as wealthy families, they had no need for food and clothing. They had never had enough meat, eggs, poultry and milk, but they had no food to eat.

That's why aristocratic children like Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are generally over eight feet tall.

On the other hand, some noble daughters are naturally taller. Her 7-foot-6-inch figure may stand out now, but in later high schools and even junior high schools, she is just an ordinary height.

Judging from the handsome appearance of Zhou Shang and Zhou Yu, Sun Ce can conclude that this young lady not only has thin waists and long legs, but also has a beautiful face.

If Sun Ce met such a beautiful woman with thin waist and long legs at the moment, he instantly recognized Zhou Yu as his elder brother-in-law! This is his Wei Qing, Dou Xian!

Seeing Sun Ce so firm, Zhou Shang didn't know how to deal with himself. He hadn't even decided whether to marry his beloved daughter to Sun Ce as his concubine!

But seeing Sun Ce's decisive attitude, he couldn't even refuse, so as not to let down the enthusiasm of such an outstanding junior and to deteriorate the relationship between the two parties.

Zhou Shang had to carefully examine Sun Ce. Although he was not at the moment, he was actually able to inherit Wucheng Hou, but the war caused the court envoys to be blocked. Li Jue, Guo Si and others controlled the government and did not send envoys to enthrone the government.

The fief of Wucheng Hou is in Wucheng County, next door to Wujun, which is the top county marquis in the Han Dynasty!

County Marquis! This is the highest title officially recognized by the Han court, and it is impossible to be granted any further. It is the ultimate goal that the heroes of the Han Dynasty pursue throughout their lives. Even if the world is in chaos, most of the princes and generals are far from this position. There are very few people who can be granted the lowest level of the Tang Dynasty. Guan Yu was proud of his life just by signing the Tang Dynasty Marquis of Han Shou.

If the court restores stability, then Sun Ce will be the noblest monarch, and can be called a lonely man and a noble man to everyone at present.

To be honest, even if the Zhou family has two generations and three masters, no one has ever reached this level, and the highest is the village marquis. Zhou Shang himself was not sure of being a marquis.

But this young man has never complained about injustice. He has always been generous and masculine, and has the confidence to win a higher honor with his own talents.

This is not only admirable, but also amazing, because Zhou Shang has seen the possibility of his success and fame.

This junior is handsome and ambitious, and is even more brave. He is a great army. He is a great army and drives eastward, and no one can stop him. As long as he has sufficient military strength and logistics supplies to continue to fight, he will be able to conquer the entire Jiangdong one day.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shang had to admit that he was a little moved. Because funding for such young heroes was the most likely thing that Zhou was to get rewarded. And it didn't require him to invest much wealth. As long as he slightly changed his governance strategy when governing Danyang, he could convert the soldiers and money and grain of Danyang County into his favor.

How could a hero who is kind and kind in the world not give up on merits and virtues?

Wu County and Kuaiji County were hostile pressure in Liu Yao's hands, but in Sun Ce's hands, it was the place where Zhou's family benefited.

Besides, it is indeed not easy to find a good match for his daughter. If you miss Sun Ce, you will meet the next hero who is compatible. If you want to meet the next compatible hero, you are over 20 years old. At least you will marry Sun Ce at least. For the sake of the friendship between the two families, he will not treat his daughter unfairly.

After thinking carefully for a long time, Zhou Shang solemnly said to Sun Ce: "The little girl is not an ugly girl, but she is extremely talented. She has never seen a hero before and has not been willing to marry an ordinary person easily. Now Bo Fu is so handsome that she is enough to make her love for her. Beautiful women are matched with heroes, which is a beautiful story, which is comparable to the marriage of Queen Pei Guangwu."

"The dowry for King Zhending to marry his daughter was a 100,000 army. I also used this beautiful act, using guests and thousands of people as the dowry for the little girl. I just hope that Bo Fu will keep this beautiful thing going on forever, treat her well, and don't let her be bullied."

Empress Pei was the Empress Dowager Pei Guo Shengtong. This was the third emperor of the Han Dynasty who was promoted to the empress dowager in advance before he died.

Her story is familiar to all the Xia people even after a thousand years. Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu had his wife Yin Lihua very early. In order to win over the powerful Liu Yang in Hebei, he accepted his niece Guo Shengtong, and then made the Guo family in the north and the Liu family in the south and became in-laws.

Liu Yang, the largest tyrant in Zhending, used an army of 100,000 as his dowry to help Liu Xiu compete for the Central Plains and unify the world.

There is still a big difference between accepting and marrying.

Zhou Shang was far away like Liu Yang, but Sun Ce may not be inferior to Emperor Guangwu. If Zhou Shang could help Sun Ce’s 100,000 troops, Sun Ce could unify Jiangnan within one month and go north to participate in the Central Plains’ battle for hegemony within three months.

Zhou Shang naturally could see all this clearly, so he felt that Sun Cena's daughter might not be a beautiful story that would be passed down through the ages like Emperor Guangwu's Guo Shengtong.

Zhou Yu is the one who agrees most. He has been in good faith with Sun Ce since childhood, and knows the heroism and talents of this friendship, and he really hopes to betroth his sister to him. This is definitely a good match, and his sister will never be bullied.

He smiled happily: "Now Bo Fu is waiting to welcome the beautiful woman. In addition to his height, the sister is definitely beautiful and matched with your talent."
