Everyone has their own selfish motives, and Mrs. Ding, including those who support Sun Yi, must be thinking about themselves. However, if Sun Yi could be incited by this group of people, he must also be moved.

Guangling,
Sun Quan and his party arrived here. If they wanted to, they could cross the river that day. but,
"Zhongmou, I heard that Shubi (Sun Yi) is 'greeting' us on the opposite side."
After Wu Jing came back from inquiring about the news, he said with a serious face.
Looking at Wu Jing's expression, Sun Quan also knew what this so-called "greeting" meant. Across the Yangtze River, Sun Yi obviously led troops!
Sun Quan was a little troubled. He didn't expect that when he came back, he would actually face the situation of fighting between brothers. Otherwise, why would Sun Quan not want to come back in the first place. For his own sake, Sun Quan really doesn't want to take this step, but now, Sun Ce will return sooner or later. In order to ensure that Jiangdong will not be split into two in the future, Sun Quan can only bite the bullet!
"How about we bring Zhang Xun's team with us?" Wu Jing suggested in a low voice. Wu Jing's own troops are currently staying in Huaiyin to guard, and the remnants of Yuan Shu's army that Zhang Xun collected from Huainan may not be that elite. But the numbers are quite impressive.
Faced with this situation, let alone whether there will be a fight, at least we must ensure our own safety and build up our momentum so that even if people have ideas, they will not hesitate to do so.
Sun Quan hesitated for a while and before he could make a decision, Mrs. Wu also came over after hearing the news.
"Quan'er, let me cross the river and have a look first." Mrs. Wu said straight to the point. Sun Yi is also her biological son, what else can she do to her?
As a mother, the last thing she wants to see is for her children to kill each other. Instead of watching the conflict between the two brothers Sun Quan and Sun Yi intensify, it is better for Mrs. Wu to go over and persuade Sun Yi.
It is not that Mrs. Wu had not expected this kind of situation where the children of big families would fight for power. But probably because Sun Quan did not fight for it in the past, and Sun Yi and others were too young, Mrs. Wu once thought that this kind of thing was not possible. It will happen to the Sun family.
But now, as a mother, she is really sad.
"Mom, you also know?" Sun Quan frowned, and then glared at Wu Jing fiercely. Is this kind of thing something he should tell his mother?
Wu Jing quickly shook his head and denied,
"I didn't say that! This matter is not a secret at all now. Any kid on the street probably knows about it."
"Is that so?" Sun Quan's eyes flashed, and then he didn't know what he thought of. He suddenly smiled and said to Mrs. Wu,
"Mom, don't worry too much, my third brother is just joking with me."
"Are you kidding?" Mrs. Wu shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Mom is not a fool, Quan'er doesn't need to comfort me like this."
"I'm not joking." Sun Quan said immediately, and turned to Wu Jing, "Uncle, there is no need to inform Zhang Xun for the time being. If nothing else happens, we will cross the river directly later."
"What?!" Wu Jing almost jumped up, thinking that Sun Quan was crazy and went to face thousands of troops without anyone. Are you brave because of your skill, or are you throwing yourself into a trap? You said that Liu Bang went to the Hongmen Banquet because Xiang Yu was powerful at that time. Now it is you, Sun Quan, who is powerful. Why would you risk your life?
Not to mention that Wu Jing thought so, even Mrs. Wu, who never believed that her son would turn against her, couldn't believe it in her heart. She was a womanly person, and at least she still maintained some sense.
Mrs. Wu opened her mouth and quickly remembered Sun Quan's always extremely accurate judgment. In the end, she did not say any words to dissuade her.
"Anyway, you should think it over yourself." Mrs. Wu said. The child has grown up and has his own opinions. This applies not only to Sun Quan, but also to Sun Yi. If Sun Yi really wants to do something, the current Mrs. Wu may not be able to play a big role.
Think it through? Just kidding, before making such a huge decision, Sun Quan thought more clearly than anyone else.
Although he had already made a preliminary judgment in his mind, Sun Quan did not dare to take risks without thinking twice about the situation. This was not out of distrust of his brothers, but out of a habit that Sun Quan had developed over a long period of time.
Therefore, without final confirmation, Sun Quan did not dare to boast about his analysis and judgment. It would be funny if he was slapped in the face later.
Fortunately, finally using skills to confirm, Sun Quan's judgment was correct. Fortunately, after the system update, I was allowed to think twice about upgrading my skills, otherwise this one hour of fantasy time would obviously not be enough. Fortunately, the Sun brothers were united and harmonious and did not fight each other!
••••••
The sky was already dark, and above the Yangtze River, a gloomy wind blew, making many people feel chilly from head to toe, from body to heart.
Sun Quan was alone on the bow deck of the ship, standing in the wind and looking toward the east of the river. The people behind him looked at Sun Quan's back, their eyes full of complexity and admiration.
Looking at the rows of Sun family flags on the opposite shore. Looking at the groups of iron-blooded soldiers under the flag. There are probably not many people in the world today who have the courage of Sun Quan to cross the river without anyone else!
As the distance got closer, Sun Quan soon found his target on the opposite bank. Of course, with so many people on the opposite side, Sun Quan's ability to find his target at once was entirely due to the illusion of thinking twice just now.
Compared to Sun Quan's side, the other side had obviously noticed Sun Quan a long time ago. After all, it was too obvious that Sun Quan was standing alone on the bow of the ship.
Sun Yi looked at the second brother he had always admired, with mixed eyes, which seemed to be regretful, admirable, and relieved.
Soon, as if he had made up his mind, Sun Yi suddenly raised his hand,
"Bang the drum!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Drums sounded from the riverside, and each beat seemed to hit everyone's heartbeat.
"Is this a drum of welcome? Or a drum of welcome?" Many people on the big ship whispered softly. Of course, no matter how nervous they are at the moment, there is no turning back now.
Sun Quan on the bow of the boat still stood upright as before, without wavering at all from beginning to end. Invisibly, Sun Quan, who returned from Xuzhou this time, brought a domineering aura that had never been seen in him before!
One hundred meters! Fifty meters! Thirty meters! Ten meters!
The big ship slowly docked, surrounded by countless soldiers, and dropped its anchor. At Sun Yi's signal, the drumming stopped abruptly. Immediately, a hanging ladder was lowered from the ship, and Sun Quan took the lead and went ashore first.
Sun Yi looked at his familiar third brother and Sun Quan who was walking indifferently, and took a deep breath.
"Welcome my lord back to Jiangdong!" Sun Yi shouted loudly.
"Welcome our lord back to Jiangdong!" the soldiers on both sides shouted.
"Welcome our lord back to Jiangdong!" Tens of thousands of soldiers roared in unison. The sound resounded through the top of the clouds, and countless birds and animals were frightened so that they flew up from the forest. Even the huge waves on the river seemed to become more violent due to the vibration of the sound.
Sun Quan stepped forward and gave Sun Yi a heavy hug.
"I'm back!"
