what to do?
"No matter what, send people out first, and never let others find my eldest brother." Sun Quan replied. This was half true and half false. To be precise, he was hiding something from Diao Chan.
This was Sun Quan's so-called conventional method, but in fact, Sun Quan did not make this choice in the end. The reason why even Diao Chan kept it secret was not that Sun Quan couldn't trust Diao Chan, but rather that some of Sun Quan's future actions would arouse Diao Chan's displeasure and may even be contrary to Cihang Jingzhai's interests!
"But in this case, your eldest brother's affairs will definitely be exposed to the whole Central Plains, which may bring greater danger." Diao Chan reminded Sun Quan.
"I just talked to her. She is unwilling to compromise. The Demon Sect disciples outside will still continue to search for my eldest brother. In the current situation, I have no choice at all. I can't abandon my eldest brother and have no choice but to fight with the Demon Sect for this one. Time." Sun Quan shook his head and sighed.
Diao Chan looked at Sun Quan, her eyes flashed, and finally she stopped talking.
"Since you have your own plans, then go ahead and do it according to your ideas."
Sun Quan is definitely hiding something from her! But since Sun Quan didn't say anything, with Diao Chan's character, she wouldn't stalk him. In fact, both of them knew the current situation. After all, Sun Quan would not expect him to deceive Diao Chan. Therefore, the two of them just did not tell the truth.
"Anyway, if you need anything, remember to tell me." Diao Chan said seriously.
"Speaking of which, I have something to ask you." Sun Quan nodded, "After this incident spreads, Jiangdong is likely to be turbulent again. I am a little worried about my mother's mood, and maybe someone will take the opportunity to take action against my mother. .”
Diao Chan hesitated for a moment, a woman's intuition made her feel that Sun Quan was deliberately trying to get rid of her, but since Sun Quan was willing to let her protect Mrs. Wu, it meant that in Sun Quan's heart, she, Diao Chan, was still a completely trustworthy partner.
So, what is the reason? What did Sun Quan hide?
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to the family." Diao Chan promised Sun Quan that no matter what Sun Quan was thinking, only by following his thoughts step by step can it be revealed bit by bit.
Hopefully, it won't be a bad outcome in the end.

Xudu,
"Lord, there are rumors recently that Sun Ce is not dead at all!"
"Rumors?" Cao Cao didn't take it seriously. He was worried about Yuan Shao's affairs all day long, and Emperor Xian was stirring up trouble internally. There are too many lice and they are not itchy. It’s not that Cao Cao doesn’t care about it, but it’s just that he can’t take care of it now. Therefore, if there is a situation, Cao Cao would rather think in a good direction, and even take a risk on it. At this moment, if he has to cover everything, then there is only a dead end.
Unfortunately, many times, things often backfire. God is so cruel. The less Cao Cao wanted something to happen, the more it would happen.
"I'm afraid it's not just rumors. Now the people from the Demon Sect and Sun Quan are looking for Sun Ce with great fanfare. Moreover, according to the information I got, the people from the Demon Sect did fight Sun Ce in Huaiyin a few days ago. It was only because of the appearance of Zuo Ci that Sun Ce was able to escape." Guo Jia appeared and said.
Information related to the Demon Sect, when it was told by Guo Jia, immediately gained some credibility. As a result, Cao Cao's face became quite ugly.
"If Sun Ce had not died, even if it was just a possibility, the Sun family would not have held a funeral for Sun Ce with great fanfare. Therefore, Sun Ce was not lucky to have died, but deliberately faked his death. He deceived everyone in the world. He was really ambitious and a wolf of wealth. This generation!" Cao Cao said in a deep voice. This is very bad. What is the purpose of Sun Ce cheating to death? In terms of geographical location, the target is probably Cao Cao, or at least Cao Cao himself. How did Cao Cao respond to this?
Taking care of both sides is a dead end. If you only pay attention to one side, do you really think that the other side is blind and cannot see the opportunity?
"Looking back now, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu immediately led the troops to fight after Sun Ce's funeral in Wu County. These two people were Sun Ce's absolute trust. They may have known that Sun Ce was not dead at that time. If Huang Zu hadn't been in Jiangxia After holding Zhou Yu back, he may have hit somewhere now," Guo Jia said.
"Yes. You said that Sun Ce appeared in Huaiyin. Judging from the time, he should have met Sun Quan at that time. So at least Sun Quan knew about it. And Zhou Yu escorted Sun Ce's bones all the way back to Jiangdong. It's impossible not to see the problem. These two young people are quite good at acting." Cao Cao said, frowning again, "In addition, Zuo Ci is known as the best person in the world. He has always ignored world affairs, and now he actually shows up. Helping Sun Ce is really very bad news."
"But lord, it's not like we don't have good news." Guo Jia suddenly laughed.
"Oh? Is there any good news now?" Cao Cao couldn't help but ask.
"First of all, it is not only the Demon Sect but also Sun Quan who are looking for Sun Ce with great fanfare. Therefore, after Sun Ce escaped, he must have encountered an accident and his whereabouts are unknown!" Guo Jia said.
"Then could this be Sun Quan deliberately acting? Sun Ce has actually secretly returned to Jiangdong." Cao Cao couldn't help but guess.
"No." Guo Jia said categorically, "If the Demon Sect is looking for Sun Ce, less than 10% of them know about it. If Sun Quan remains indifferent, the 'rumors' will be self-defeating. I personally believe the baseless judgment of the Demon Sect. But if Sun Quan also takes action, it is tantamount to directly confirming this speculation. What does it mean that Sun Ce is not dead? It means that Jiangdong will be in trouble again, and Sun Quan's rule will also be shaken. Now Why would Sun Quan give up on such a great situation?"
Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he was finally awakened by Guo Jia.
"That's the truth. If Sun Ce is really not dead and safe, Sun Quan can completely ignore the Demon Sect. At most, there will be some crazy words. With Sun Quan's methods, he can completely suppress it. It seems that Sun Quan is He would rather ruin this good situation than protect his eldest brother!"
"The Sun family's success lies in their brotherhood, and their failure may also lie in their brotherhood." Guo Jia said. Because the brothers Sun Ce and Sun Quan had no suspicion, no internal fighting, and were united as one, the Sun family became what it is today. But at this moment, it was precisely because Sun Quan went to save Sun Ce regardless of the overall situation that he missed the opportunity.
Time is also fate.
"Lord, there is actually good news." Guo Jia suddenly said again.
"Oh? Come on, tell me!" Cao Cao also became a little excited, sweeping away the gloom of recent days.
"According to reliable information, Yuan Shao has also launched an operation. They have sent many people to look for Sun Ce." Guo Jia said.
"Good news! Really good news!" Cao Cao immediately slapped his thigh and laughed.
