In June, the news of the fall of Han Dynasty had reached Jianye of Soochow!
When Princess Zhu Sun Luyu came to the courtyard of the Zhang family's inner house, she heard the cry of Zhang Bu's youngest daughter Zhang Yao as soon as she entered the gatehouse. Then her sister Zhang Ao's voice said: "Cry, or cry again and ask Qin Liang to take you away."
! Hold the jade in your mouth and go to herd the sheep."
Zhang Ao is also young. Although her normal demeanor is a bit feminine, she is also a very well-behaved girl. She actually used a sinister tone to scare her sister.
Xiaoyao stopped crying and looked at Zhang Ao with big tearful eyes, feeling very pitiful and still very stubborn even though she was angry. She was young, so she probably didn’t quite understand why Qin Liang was scary. Others told her that he was scary, but she
Or as a child-eating monster.
But Sun Luyu didn't expect that the news would spread so quickly, and even the children would know about it! Of course, Zhang Bu is the captain of Changshui School after all, so it's not surprising that his family would hear about it quickly.
Not to mention children, even adults like Sun Luyu found it scary! It is said that Qin Liang only set out from Luoyang in March. In less than six months, he traveled two thousand miles, breaking through the dangerous sword pavilion in the middle, and defeated the main force of a hundred thousand Han army!
Yesterday, Sun Luyu went to Taichu Palace, and when he saw his father, he also showed a vague expression of panic. Although his father was lying on the bed due to illness, he had always been respected and feared by Sun Luyu in the past.
Because of the demise of the Han Kingdom, his father was very worried about the future of Wu. At that time, Zhou Gongjin once advocated dividing the world into two parts, because he believed that the upper reaches of Yizhou was very important and wanted to control it in the hands of the Wu Kingdom. Later, the Han Kingdom occupied Yizhou and
The situation is acceptable if we are allies to fight against Cao Wei. Now that Yizhou has fallen into the hands of the Wei people, how can my father feel at ease?
Sun Luyu thought silently for a while, and suddenly realized that Mrs. Zhu, Zhang Bu's wife, turned her head and glanced at him.
Mrs. Zhu looked a little embarrassed and said: "When my husband talked about Qin Liang at home, he was so arrogant that the children listened."
Sun Luyu pretended to be disapproving and said: "Madam, don't worry about what the children say."
Sister Zhang Ao also heard the voice, and turned to look at Sun Luyu and Mrs. Zhu. Xiaoyao immediately ran over with Quju in hand. Instead of looking for her mother, she fell to Sun Luyu and spread her hands. Sun Luyu immediately squatted down and hugged Xiaoyao.
In my arms.
Xiaoyao immediately leaned against Sun Luyu's chest with peace of mind and said aggrievedly: "Sister Princess, she bullied me and scared Xiaoyao."
Sun Luyu is probably a little older than Xiaoyao's mother, but the child loves to call her sister! Sun Luyu thinks that calling her sister is quite good. Why should she care about her seniority with children?
Madam Zhu's voice said: "It's such a hot day, don't stick to Your Highness the Princess."
Secondly, Sun Luyu felt hot, but mainly because Xiaoyao loved rubbing against her skirt, which felt a bit strange.
Usually the two sisters liked Sun Luyu very much, but Sun Luyu came to Zhang's house today not actually to see the Xiaoyao sisters. Sun Luyu wanted to find out whether his two stepsons Zhu Xiong and Zhu Sun were here.
Because when Zhu Xiong and others went out in the morning, Sun Luyu asked them where they were going, and they said they were coming to see Captain Zhang Bu of Changshui. However, Sun Luyu learned from a maid that the two brothers had secretly discussed that they were going to see Zhuge Ke today!
To verify who is telling the truth, it is very simple. Sun Luyu and Zhang Bu's two daughters get along very well. Come over to visit them, and then ask the Zhang family to find out.
As expected, Zhang Bu was not at home. Just now, Sun Luyu met Zhang Bu's wife, Mrs. Zhu, and immediately learned that Zhu Xiong and others had not been here at all today!
Sun Luyu has indeed been a little sensitive recently, because she vaguely heard that Zhuge Ke was willing to pull the strings, and her second son Zhu Sun actually intended to marry Sun Jun's sister!
The things these people do for profit or self-protection are simply unbelievable.
Sun Luyu guessed that her stepson might surrender to Zhuge Ke; because both the Zhu family and Zhuge Ke supported the former crown prince Sun He. But she did not expect that Zhu Xiong and Zhu Sun's father had just been sentenced to death not long ago. It was obvious that he was
Conspiracy by Princess Quan and others, Zhu Sun actually intends to marry Sun Jun's family at this time?
And when did Sun Jun and Zhuge Ke get together? In the past, one of these two people clearly supported King Lu and the other supported Sun He.
Sun Luyu suddenly realized that in the end, it seemed that he was the only princess who was abandoned by others, and faced a situation where everyone was betrayed and separated from their relatives. Could it be that all this was because he was a noble and indifferent person?
People may be like this. Only when they find that they are about to lose it, will they realize that a stable and simple life is actually not easy!
... Brother Zhu Xiong and Zhu Sun did go to Zhuge Ke's house. When they were going out, they happened to meet Shi Bao, who came with a tall man with a long face.
Zhuge Ke was defeated at the hands of Qin Liang in Xianxi, and his strength was greatly reduced. He was demoted from the position of general to general of Weibei. But now there are still people coming and going in front of the mansion, and he does not show any signs of neglect! After all, Zhuge Ke
She has been loved by Emperor Sun Quan since she was a child. In order to maintain trust with the emperor, she once even poisoned her son. At this time, she still has an important place in the court.
Of course, Zhuge Ke's strength was greater in the past. Including the Shanyue people he recruited, there were as many as 40,000 to 50,000 people!
The tall man with a long face who followed Shi Bao to visit was none other than Master Sima! He arrived in Jianye just the day before yesterday because he met with his subordinate Cai Hong in Wuchang. There was a slight delay on the way, so he arrived in Jianye a little late. At that time, Master Sima
Jiang Wei was ordered to come to Soochow to ask for help. Jiang Wei did not say it clearly, but Sima Shi knew what it meant. Of course he would not return to Han again. Han was obviously finished!
After arriving in Jianye, I discovered that Shi Bao recognized Master Sima!
After all, Shi Bao was promoted entirely on the recommendation of Sima Shi. Even now, Shi Bao has gone to Soochow and at least became a general again, and his life is still better than before he became rich! After he ran to Soochow, he seemed to have received several more
A concubine.
Yesterday, Shi Bao arranged a reception banquet for Master Sima. A maid brought wine to persuade him, but Master Sima was absent-minded and did not drink. Shi Bao blamed the maid for raising the glass with one hand and being disrespectful to the guests, so he ordered someone to cut off the maid's right hand. Watch.
In this case, Sima Division would at least have no problem establishing a foothold in Soochow, unless Shi Bao was also unlucky.
After a while, Zhuge Ke met Sima Shi and others.
I saw that Zhuge Ke was tall, wide and fat. He also had a horse face, a broad forehead, but his nose was a bit crooked. In short, his appearance was not bad, at least he was better looking than the bumpy face.
The wealthy families among the Three Kingdoms can often find some kinship ties. For example, Master Sima had a younger brother who married Zhuge Dan’s daughter, and Zhuge Dan and Zhuge Ke were of the same clan as the Langya Zhuge clan. If Ziyuan
It is not wrong to tell Zhuge Ke that they are relatives.
"I have long admired you, General!" Master Sima waited for Shi Bao to introduce him and immediately bowed to him.
Zhuge Ke also returned the courtesy and said kindly: "I also know the name of Ziyuan, but I didn't expect to meet him in Jianye."
Master Sima couldn't help but sigh.
At this time Zhuge Ke also sighed: "I really didn't expect that the Han Dynasty would be suddenly attacked and destroyed! Yesterday I was wondering if the news from the west was wrong, but now that I see Zi Yuan, it seems certain. Jiang Bo
How could a famous general from the Han Dynasty be defeated so quickly?"
Zhuge Ke also suffered heavy losses at the hands of Qin Liang. If not for the Battle of Xianxi, Zhuge Ke would now be the most powerful minister in Soochow.
Master Sima naturally did not mention the battle of Xianxi, and immediately said with a complex expression: "Now that Qin Liang has become stronger and has the national power of Wei, it is not easy to deal with him from the outside."
Several people were speechless for a moment, and then Master Sima said: "The best time is before Qin Liang becomes the county guard. At the beginning, he had no power. In order to compliment him, he deliberately said good things to Gao Rou, and then passed it on to me.
It can be said that I have put a lot of thought into it. I regret that I did not see it at that time. This is a vicious dog with wolfish ambition! Otherwise, getting rid of this person would be as easy as crushing an ant."
Master Sima scolded Qin Liang from the bottom of his heart. His hatred for Qin Liang could not be increased. He scolded Qin Liang in front of Zhuge Ke, but it was intentional.
Master Sima continued: "The next opportunity was before Qin Liang raised troops in Yangzhou to rebel. We plotted against Cao Shuang, but completely ignored Qin Liang, who was born in Cao Shuang's vassal, thinking that such a small person could be dealt with slowly. But
Somehow the secret was leaked, allowing them to seize it for a short period of time. At that time, as long as it was delayed for another half month, Wang Ling and Qin Liang's strength would most likely be wiped out! But since then, Qin Liang's power has rapidly increased.
.”
Zhuge Ke frowned and thought about something. After hearing this, he raised his head and looked at Master Sima, "Zi Yuan just said that it is difficult to deal with this person from the outside?"
Sima Shi said coldly: "My intention is to find a solution from within the Wei State."
"It's too far away to handle." Zhuge Ke muttered, "I'm afraid that if we don't succeed, we will be retaliated against."
Listening to Zhuge Ke's words, the sudden destruction of the Han Dynasty really frightened him!
People like Zhuge Ke have only fought against Qin Liang on the battlefield. They have never seen him in person, let alone interacted with him. On the contrary, it is easier for him to become fearful because of his imagination.
Master Sima is different from Zhuge Ke in this regard. Master Sima has seen what Qin Liang is like. When he is in a disadvantageous situation, he will still be defeated, just like ordinary people!
Zhuge Ke suddenly asked: "Who is the guard of Baidi City in Badong County now?"
Master Sima replied: "When I went east from Yizhou, I met Luo Xian, the governor of Badong County, in Baidi City."
Shi Bao's voice said: "General Zhuge has a clear vision. The most important thing at this time is to write to the court and send someone from the Governor of Xiling to persuade him to surrender. Our army can try to occupy the dangerous terrain between Badong and Bajun.
To resist the Wei soldiers!"
Zhuge Ke nodded and said: "After Qin Liang destroyed the Han Dynasty, he could go down the river from the upper reaches. The situation in our country will be even more dangerous in the future!"
Master Sima was noncommittal, but since Zhuge Ke had spoken, he was unwilling to object. With an extremely uncomfortable mood, he gritted his teeth and said: "Qin Liang will rush back to Luoyang to seek power, and he will not care about the Kingdom of Wu for the time being."
Zhuge Ke said: "Our country has not been very peaceful recently."
