Sun Ce left in anger. Only Sun Quan, Sun Yi, and Sun Kuang were left in the house.
After Sun Kuang left, he said to Sun Quan dissatisfiedly: "Second brother, the eldest brother will shout, and he will not tell any truth. I followed the ancient saying and did not dare to surpass my elder brother and inherit the title. What's wrong with this? If this is my younger brother
After passing several brothers, he inherited the title. People outside don’t know the inside story. Wouldn’t they say that the younger brother robbed the title despite his brother’s affection? How can I go out to meet people in the future?”
"Fourth brother, don't draw conclusions so early. Actually, there is a reason for the elder brother to ask you to inherit your father's title." Sun Quan said to Sun Kuang very solemnly.
"Second brother, what's the reason?" Sun Kuang and Sun Yi asked Sun Quan in unison.
"The third brother, the fourth brother. Let me tell you the truth. Now my father is going first, and Liu Bei is chasing us relentlessly and killing us. Now our Sun family is in danger of destruction." Sun Quan sighed.
"Second brother, is it that serious? Governor Zhou defeated Huang Zu's fleet and was back. With Governor Zhou here, can't we still deal with Liu Bei?" Sun Kuang asked in confusion.
"That's right, it's just that. Governor Zhou's masterminds can't solve anything. Governor Zhou can definitely help us defeat Liu Bei." Sun Yi also said from the side.
Sun Quan's mouth moved slightly, and then he said calmly: "Yes. Governor Zhou is indeed a clever plan. He did come up with a way to deal with Liu Bei. This method is for the eldest brother to let the fourth brother inherit his father's title and take on the role of the Marquis of Wucheng.
The reason for it.”
"Me? I have such a great effect? Can I be the Marquis of Wucheng, and Liu Bei will die obediently?" Sun Kuang asked strangely.
Sun Quan smiled and said, "No, don't say you are the Marquis of Wucheng. Even the emperor today will not be able to let Liu Bei die obediently."
Sun Yi and Sun Kuang couldn't help laughing.
But at this moment, Sun Quan restrained his smile, held Sun Kuang's shoulder with both hands, and said with a solemn expression: "Fourth brother, let's smile. But, only the fourth brother, you are the Marquis of Wucheng,
Only Governor Zhou’s planner can implement it better. Therefore, Brother will let you take on this important task.”
Sun Kuang saw Sun Quan's seriousness and didn't laugh anymore. However, Sun Kuang was still a little confused about the relationship between this and looked at Sun Quan in confusion and asked, "Second brother. Why is this? You just say it.
.I am also a member of the Sun family. When it’s time for me to do my best, I will never be a coward!"
"Okay. I am worthy of being the man of our Sun family. Fourth brother, second brother, let me tell you plainly today. Now our Sun family is facing the most dangerous desperate situation. With the current strength of our Sun family, we will definitely not be able to deal with Liu Bei alone.
If Liu Biao and Liu Bei jointly attack our Sun family, then our Sun family will be no match for us. In order to deal with such a situation, we can only seek other forces to join our Sun family.
Our Sun family provides assistance. For the sake of alliance and to show our Sun family's sincerity, this requires a proton. And Wu Chenghou is also a bargaining chip to raise the identity of this proton. Now, second brother, I have already made the words clear.
4. Are you willing to make such sacrifices for our Sun family?” After Sun Quan said that, he looked at Sun Kuang.
At this time, Sun Yi and Sun Kuang felt the seriousness of the matter. Especially Sun Kuang, the psychological pressure was even heavier. Although Sun Kuangsheng was precocious in this chaotic world.
The pressure of protons is still too great for a thirteen-year-old child.
However, Sun Kuang looked at Sun Quan's expectant gaze at him, and felt excited and said excitedly: "Second brother, don't worry. I am also a member of our Sun family. For our Sun family, I am willing!"
"Okay, good brothers, I blame my second brother for being incompetent and can't protect you. I have to do my best for our family so early. But, fourth brother, don't worry, although you are a host, you have your brothers here, your safety
There will definitely be no problem." Sun Quan hugged Sun Kuang with tears in his eyes and said.
"Second brother." Sun Kuang and Sun Yi also hugged Sun Quan and shed tears.
However, when Sun Kuang's weak heart was inspiring his brotherhood with his second brother Sun Quan, he couldn't help but feel cold to his elder brother Sun Ce to take the role of Wu Chenghou as a hostage.
Sun Quan comforted Sun Kuang, stood up and informed Sun Ce.
When Sun Quan arrived at Sun Ce, Sun Ce had been waiting for him anxiously. When he saw Sun Quan coming, Sun Ce hurriedly asked, "Second brother, how is the fourth brother? Have you told him all?"
"Brother, don't worry. After all, the fourth brother is also a descendant of our Sun family. He is not a coward. He is willing to do his best for our Sun family."
"Well, it's really hard for the fourth brother. It's all my fault that I am a brother is useless. I have to let the fourth brother serve our family at such a young age. I can only use my father's title to compensate him.
However, as long as Gongjin's plan is successful, I will definitely work hard to fight the world, expand our strength, and pick up the fourth brother back as soon as possible." Sun Ce said guiltily.
"Brother, don't think so. You can't make a breakthrough in the world. My father, I just suffered this loss. My brother must not make the mistakes of my father again. Besides, the fourth brother is also for our family.
Do your best, I can't blame you. Besides, if the elder brother had not been to go to Yuan Shu's place to follow the plan of Governor Zhou, and I would also go to my uncle to persuade him to help us. The fourth brother is too young, so let's go
After that, I can't control the matter, so I can only let the third brother stick to it. We who are brothers will never let the fourth brother be that host. The fourth brother will understand that the eldest brother is doing his best for our family." Sun Quan looked at Sun Ce
Sad, let Sun Cedao be cleared.
"Well, second brother, stop talking. Brother, I am not a person who can't take it and let go. Since the matter has been done, we will act separately tomorrow according to the plan." Sun Ce cheered up and said decisively.
Sun Quan nodded.
The next day, Sun Ce ordered the Grand Governor Zhou Yu to protect Sun Kuang from congratulations to the emperor and inherit his father Wucheng Hou's title. He ordered the general Huang Gai to lead the navy to guard Sanjiangkou with Zhu Ran to prevent the re-invasion of Liu Biao in Jingzhou.
.Shield his third brother Sun Yi and the rest of the generals to defend Lujiang and resist Liu Bei's attack. He waited for the arrival of reinforcements.
And just when Sun Ce was preparing to counterattack Liu Bei under Zhou Yu's arrangement, Liu Bei, who had a complete victory, did not care about how to defeat all the remaining soldiers and defeated soldiers in Jiangdong in one go. Instead, he was considering how to keep Xu Shu. Xu Shu's ability,
Liu Bei has now deeply experienced it. As long as he has Xu Shu who can win everything, who else can he be afraid of? So, compared with this, the remnants of Jiangdong are no longer so important in Liu Bei's mind.
After all, when Sun Jian was alive, with Xu Shu's help, he was not his opponent. Now there are only a group of defeated soldiers and defeated soldiers, and that's not a few kittens.
However, what upset Liu Bei was that this was the third time that Xu Shu had resigned from Liu Bei. What Liu Bei should say had been almost said. But Xu Shu felt desperate and didn't want to stay with Liu Bei.
here.
There is a saying: filial piety is the first priority for all virtues. In this era, let alone supporting parents, even if they are immortals, they have to keep filial piety for three years. Under such a premise, Liu Bei's words seem so powerless.
Liu Bei himself was not very good at opening this. Liu Bei could only delay and could only hope to use his kindness and power to win over Xu Shu in these few days.
Unfortunately, although Xu Shu was much worse than Liu Bei's political interactions, he had seen storms and experiences when Xu Shu was in trouble. After missing the excitement at the beginning, Xu Shu could still distinguish between Liu Bei's sincerity and falsehood.
Although Liu Bei always talks about the people, he valued Zhang Hong, obviously helping the local wealthy families and winning over the forces of the local wealthy families. This shows that Liu Bei is not a true gentleman with his heart.
Liu Bei deliberately made excuses and did not abide by the previous agreement and delayed Xu Shu's itinerary, which made Xu Shu even more upset and looked down upon. Therefore, Xu Shu's desire to leave Liu Bei as soon as possible became more determined.
On this day, Liu Bei was still planning how to come to entertain Xu Shu, which moved Xu Shu. Suddenly someone came to report that Mr. Xu was seriously ill.
Liu Bei was stunned when he heard this. Why is Xu Shu sick? Is this a real disease or a fake disease?
However, Liu Bei had just a flash of thought. This idea was decided. No matter whether he was sick or not, it was a great opportunity to win over Xu Shu. Liu Bei said nothing and quickly asked the doctor to visit Xu Shu in person.
As soon as Liu Bei entered Xu Shu's bedroom, he saw Xu Shu lying on the kang. He cried with tears in his face: "Brother Yuan Zhi. I'm late." Before he finished speaking, he was crying. The people watching on both sides,
Everyone admired Liu Bei's friendship with Xu Shu, which was really unspeakable.
Liu Bei calmed down for a moment, and while crying, he bowed to the doctor he invited, "Mr. Zhang, my brother, for me, for the sake of our Jiangnan elders, they will be ill due to war. Your medical skills
Gao Chao is the miracle doctor of the world. You want to save my brother. I salute you here."
Liu Bei's words were really from the heart. He could cry and feel sad when he smelled it. And that Doctor Zhang was even more moved by Liu Bei's gift. Liu Bei was just a legitimate Yangzhou master. He saluted himself, that was not Gao.
Do you carry yourself?
Immediately, Doctor Zhang avoided Liu Bei's salute and said, "Duke Xuande. We all know your kindness and righteousness in Jiangnan. Since this gentleman is sick for our Jiangnan people, I will do my best to cure him.
