Lujiang County, Wan County.
In front of Qiao Mansion.
Sun Ce stopped his black horse and bowed to the middle-aged man in white robe on the doorstep:
"Sun Ce, Jiangdong, pays homage to Duke Qiao."
Duke Qiao quickly walked down the steps and helped Sun Ce up.
He said with a smile:
"Bo Fu is indeed a talented person, I really like him!"
"A few days ago, I heard that Brother Wentai suffered an accident, and I felt extremely sad. Today I saw Bo Fu safe and sound, which can be regarded as a great blessing among misfortunes."
"Okay, okay, don't talk about these unhappy things. Let's go home with me!"
The middle-aged man who pulled Sun Ce to the mansion was Mr. Qiao of the Qiao family.
Big Joe's father.
Knowing that Sun Ce was about to arrive in Wan County today, Duke Qiao specially put on a white robe.
Come to the door early and wait.
Qiao Gong is not Qiao Xuan as misrepresented in the novel.
Qiao Xuan was a famous official in the late Han Dynasty.
As early as the period of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, he served as the general of Liao Dynasty and guarded the northern border of the Han Dynasty.
It once defeated the intrusions of Xianbei, Southern Xiongnu, Goguryeo and other foreign tribes.
Later, he became a Taiwei and became one of the three princes.
The father of Big and Little Qiao, Duke Qiao, had never held any official position.
However, in Lujiang County, Duke Qiao's reputation was very great.
The Qiao family is a well-known local family.
The Sun family has been a member of the Qiao family for generations, and Sun Jian had already decided to marry the Qiao family.
I also want Sun Ce to get rid of the inherent label of being a general and a tiger.
Paving the way for Sun Ce's future development.
Entering the house, Sun Ce found that everyone in the Qiao family had changed into white clothes.
Apparently worn for Sun Jian.
Duke Qiao took Sun Ce to the main hall, pointed at the white clothes that had been prepared and said to Sun Ce:
"Brother Wentai, he... still needs to be laid to rest as soon as possible. It's inconvenient to wear Bo Fu's armor, so he'd better change his clothes first."
Sun Ce took off his armor as instructed and put on the white clothes he had prepared.
"Uncle, I plan to bury my father in Wan County, and I will also trouble my uncle to find a Feng Shui land."
Hearing this, Duke Qiao nodded sadly:
"Falled leaves cannot return to their roots, so that's all."
The Sun family's hometown is Fuchun, Wu County.
Nowadays, in troubled times, the princes are rising together.
The ground in Jiangdong is not peaceful either.
Yuan Shu occupied the northwest of Jiangdong, and Liu Yao, the newly appointed governor of Yangzhou by the imperial court, occupied the northeast.
Xu Gong, the governor of Wu County, Zuo Rong, the governor of Danyang, Wang Lang, the governor of Kuaiji...
And Yan Baihu, who gathers in the roaring forest...
These forces divided Jiangdong into several parts.
With the current strength of Jiangdong Army, it is simply impossible to penetrate the territories of all parties.
Transport Sun Jian's coffin to Wu Commandery.
Even once they discovered that Sun Ce appeared on their territory.
I'm afraid troops will be dispatched immediately to encircle and suppress them.
There is already a situation where there are too many monks but too little food. Who wants to have new people take a share of the pie?
After all, Lujiang is considered safe for the time being.
Lujiang County nominally belonged to Yuan Shu.
But the prefect Lu Kang was born in the Lu family, one of the four major families in Jiangdong.
The power is deep-rooted.
Yuan Shu could not really bring Lujiang under his control.
Lu Kang and Qiao Gong had a good personal relationship.
For Duke Qiao's sake, he shouldn't embarrass Sun Ce.
The reason why Sun Ce decided to rest in Lujiang was for this reason.
2 days later.
In the north of Wan County, in front of a new tomb.
Sun Ce was dressed in white and wore linen and mourning.
Two lines of hot tears slipped gently from his face.
Beside him, there were several grief-stricken faces.
The two women kneeling on the ground sobbing uncontrollably were Sun Jian's wives and concubines.
They are sisters from the Wu family, a wealthy family in Wu County.
He stayed with Sun Jian for half his life and helped the Sun family flourish.
Sun Ce and Sun Quan, Sun Yi, Sun Kuang and Sun Shangxiang standing behind him were his elder sister, Mrs. Wu.
Sun Lang, the youngest among the brothers, is the daughter of his sister, Mrs. Xiao Wu.
Before Sun Jian led the Jiangdong Army to conquer Dong Zhuo.
Sun Ce suggested that Sun Jian move his family to Shu County and let Zhou Yu take care of him.
Shu County is the northernmost county in Lujiang County and the hometown of Zhou Yu.
There is only Juchao County between Anhui County and Anhui County.
After Qiao Gong selected the feng shui place for Sun Jian to be buried, Zhou Yu took the Sun family's young and old over.
Sun Ce personally placed a handful of soil on his father's new tomb.
In front of two mothers and many brothers and sisters.
He said firmly and unquestionably:
"The child made an oath in front of his father's grave today: He will definitely restore the glory of Jiangdong Army and avenge his father with his own hands!"
"Father, please rest assured that the child will be filial to his mother, be kind to his brothers and sisters, and do his best to protect his family! He will never let the Sun family shed another drop of blood!"
The two Madam Wu looked at Sun Ce with tearful eyes, hope reappearing in their sad eyes.
The brothers and sisters Sun Quan and Sun Shangxiang hugged Sun Ce's thigh one after another.
He regarded Sun Ce as his last resort.
Sun Quan, who ranks second, is only 10 years old this year.
The other brothers and sisters are even younger.
Given their age, it is indeed difficult to bear such bad news.
But with their eldest brother Sun Ce here, their hesitant hearts.
Finally there is a little more comfort.
His big hands, roughened by years of martial arts training, were stroking the heads of his younger brothers and sisters one by one.
Sun Ce had no brothers or sisters in his previous life.
Since I have this family love in this life, I will definitely protect it to the end.
After conveying the warmth in your heart to your brothers and sisters through actions.
Sun Ce pointed at Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang with his other hand.
He said to the younger brothers and sisters around him:
"Gong Jin and Kong Ming are my sworn brothers, and they will be your brothers from now on. As long as we brothers work together, we will be able to cut jade and gold!"
Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang stepped forward.
Silently joined the ranks of the Sun brothers.
The Sun family's six brothers and sisters have since become eight.
This touching scene.
The big and small Qiao in the funeral crowd were moved.
Especially under the effect of Sun Ce's Jiangdong Little Overlord skill, Da and Xiao Qiao were irresistibly attracted to Sun Ce.
In this era, women should not be exposed to the public.
Because the Sun family and the Qiao family had an engagement relationship, Mr. Qiao brought them over.
Da Qiao and Sun Ce are similar in age, both 17 years old.
Xiao Qiao is 1 year younger than his sister Da Qiao, and is 16 years old this year.
Plain white clothes cannot hide their proud figures.
She wore no makeup because she was attending a funeral, but her beauty still captivated all sentient beings.
Jiangdong Erqiao, bright and beautiful.
In terms of appearance, she is not inferior to Diao Chan next to Sun Ce.
If we say Diao Chan is a peony that combines beauty and luxury.
Da Qiao is a fresh and refined Narcissus.
We can't hide our ladylike temperament.
And Xiao Qiao is like an orchid in an empty valley.
Elegant and quiet, floating out of the dust.
Like a fairy who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world.
The two sisters looked at Sun Ce affectionately, and their hearts broke instantly.
You know, Sun Ce is only 17 years old this year.
He has endured a heavy burden that should not be expected at this age.
But he did not bow to fate, but stubbornly carried forward the burden.
A lone brave man who explores the light in the darkness.
The most touching.
Isn't it?
