Behind Sun Ce, the people who spoke were naturally Huang Gai and Han Dang.
The two of them jumped off their horses, rushed to the Xuchang envoy in a few steps, took out the good wine from the bag, opened the cork of the porcelain bottle, smelled the smell, and started laughing together.
Zhou Yu also jumped off the horse, took out the new chapter of Red Mansions from the goods sent by Fang Guang, glanced at it greedily, and then stuffed it into his arms.
Lujiang Mei Fangguang glanced at the dumbfounded Hua Xin with some embarrassment, covered his mouth and spoke.
"Mr. Hua, I made Hua Gong laugh. The thing Datong sent me is exactly what my lord and I love the most. This is how I revealed my true feelings."
"Yes, Gong Jin is right. Since these people are from Xuchang, they are our guests from Jiangdong. The gifts from the valley that day should be claimed from the people from Yuzhou today!"
"Come, come, come, follow me into the city. The banquet in the mansion has been prepared, just waiting for you to sit down and sit down!"
Sun Ce was bold, Zhou Yu was considerate, and everyone in Jiangdong was so enthusiastic that the old comrade felt the warmth of the spring breeze, plus an inexplicable tremor.
On that day, Hua Xin followed Sun Ce and went directly to Sun's mansion. Sun Ce's younger brother Sun Quan and Jiangdong generals were already waiting in the mansion.
When Hua Xin was in Guanzhong, he was used to seeing Xiliang soldiers oppressing aristocratic families. How could he know that Sun Ce, who was even more temperamental than Xiliang, could be so humble and polite?
He knew that this was all for Fang Guang's sake, so he couldn't help but look up to Fang Guang in the yellow turban.
Hua Xin received courtesy from Jiangdong, so he naturally had to repay Datong's debts.
That night at the banquet, none of the four or five people at the table in Xuchang could see Wu Jun's world-famous fish soup!
Hua Xin didn't even see the hot dishes, so he was overwhelmed by Sun Boxu and his generals!
For several days after that, the people of Soochow received warm receptions. Hua Xin, who was born in a high-ranking noble family, felt like a spring breeze every day. In his heart, Sun Ce also transformed from a southern barbarian tiger to a sunny young man.
Sun Bofu received the seal of Yangzhou Mu, which naturally meant that he recognized Cao Cao as the emperor who used the emperor to command the princes.
He will attack Liu Biao and contain the southern enemy of Yuzhou.
Hua Xin got everything Cao Mengde wanted, and even Sun Ce gave him what he didn't expect.
Jiangdong Tiger General also meant to contain Yuan Shu in his words, which made Hua Ziyu overjoyed.
You must know that Sun Ce borrowed all his songs from Yuan Shu. This kind of kindness was really sufficient.
Hua Xin stayed in Kuaiji for a full ten days before he returned home satisfied. Before leaving, people from Jiangdong asked him to bring back to Xuchang, which was filled with more than a dozen oxcarts.
Four or five of them were sent by Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao's mother to Sun Ce to Jiangbei.
The old lady was angry for several months because her daughter was not allowed to live in the family. She still missed her daughter after all, even though in the eyes of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, Fang Guang was the most virtuous son-in-law and a good man in the world.
Mrs. Qiao is still afraid of living empty-handed in other people's homes and being seen clearly.
The things sent to Xuchang this time were just like dowry, full of colorful silks and satins, and they brought fifty pieces of them.
The envoy from Xuchang just left, and Sun Bofu was about to order his troops to march westward.
After all, he felt sorry for Sun Quan. In his heart, Sun Ce thought that Minzhong had been transferred away by his younger brother without permission, as if it had been lost in half and left it to his younger brother to do whatever he wanted.
This western expedition used the songs Lu Su trained in Chaisang.
Even though we have the troops, we still don't have enough food and fodder.
Some time ago, the Wujun family, especially the four families, had confiscated all the property they had plundered from Baiyue. Not only did they spit it out this time, but they even put some extra stuff on the bottom of the box.
The small aristocratic family has never even tasted the Baiyue soup, and they will use all their strength to support Sun Ce in going west.
The two brothers were completely different in the eyes of the senior members of the Wujun family. For a time, the argument that Sun Quan was more wise and suitable for governing Jiangdong spread throughout the counties in Jiangdong.
Behind this, it was naturally the Gu family and the Zhang family who were gradually becoming more and more dissatisfied with Sun Ce.
Among the four great families, even Zhu Zhi and Sun Ce were very dissatisfied with the Western Expedition. The Lu Xun family had lost their muscles and bones because of the Lujiang War, so they kept a low profile and acted in a low profile.
For a time, the Jiangdong family was in a state of turmoil, and the people were frightened every day and were recruited into the Western Expedition army.
Even the Baiyue slave business in Kuaiji was greatly depressed for a while!
On this day, Sun Ce, who had not had a chance to talk to Sun Quan for a long time, was stretching in the courtyard at the Sun Family Mansion in Kuaiji. He raised his head and was surprised to see Sun Quan, who seemed to have grown up suddenly, right in front of him, Zheng Zheng.
Look at yourself.
"Zhongmou, every time I look for you in the past few days, my mother always says that you are not feeling well. You are feeling better now. How about you go to Jiangxia with me, behead Liu Biao and Huang Zu's dog heads, and sacrifice them to heaven together?"
Sun Ce put down the stone lock in his hand, walked up to his younger brother, and patted Fang Guang and Sun Quan heavily on the shoulder.
Although he was irritable, he did not hold grudges against those close to him. In his opinion, he had already given in to the slight grudge against Sun Quan, and now there were no problems between the brothers.
"Brother, let's talk. Everyone in the city is talking about the Western Expedition. Is now really a good time to conquer Jiangxia?"
"I heard that my brother is going to turn against Yuan Shu. Are you going to shirk the marriage between me and the daughter of the Yuan family that was mentioned several years ago?"
Historically, Yuan Shu's lineage was deeply involved with the Sun family. One of Yuan Shu's daughters became Sun Ce's concubine after the defeat of Yuan Gongli in Shouchun.
In this world, the general situation shows signs of change because of Fang Guang.
"Zhongmou, what's wrong, you can't bear to see that woman? How can Yuan Shu's dog girl be worthy of my Jiangdong tiger brother?"
"In the future, I will find a better one for you. The army can go west for at most ten days. When Jiangxia is captured, if Yuan Shu is still troublesome, it would be best to take back the jade seal left by his father!"
Sun Ce patted his younger brother's shoulder, a stern look flashed in his eyes. Sun Quan gave in to his brother's action, and his eyes avoided Sun Ce's direct gaze.
"Brother, I heard people say that you were deceived by the Yellow Turban Colonel, Cao Cao's favorite Fang Guang, and Fang Datong, and that's why you went to the Western Expedition!"
"Brother, if Jiang Dongfang is determined, we will go to war. What if we lose? My father has been victorious all his life, so he is still defeated, right?"
"Our Sun family has guarded Jiangdong for generations and is called Hanchen. It's okay. When the overall situation of the world is clear and Jiangdong is established, it will not be too late to avenge my father's revenge!"
Sun Ce now no longer treats his brother as just a child.
He knew in his heart that what Sun Quan said was reasonable, and he couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Zhong Mou, a true man stands between heaven and earth, and he speaks the word broad-minded in his actions. Liu Biao is powerful, and I know it in my heart. It's just a hero doing things, how can he do everything properly?"
"When you were young, you followed your mother and me around the world and endured hardships. Brother knows all the hardships you endured. Once Liu Biao is destroyed, Your Majesty, you should remember the good things of the Sun family. You said it is too difficult to permanently hold Jiangdong. Sun Jianchang spent countless
Dai, of course!"
"The general trend of the world will change drastically in thirty to fifty years. What will happen in the future is so deeply calculated that who can say clearly?"
