"Where is my lord?" Cheng Pu asked.
"gone."
"gone?"
"Where are you going?"
"It seems that he is going back to Jiangdong." Xiao Bing replied.
"Going back to Jiangdong?" Everyone looked at each other in confusion. After a moment of silence, someone smarter contacted Sun Quan's reaction and understood.
"Is it possible that the Lord still doesn't know about Dan Yang?"
"Damn it! What did Cao Cao write in his letter!"
"No matter what, the lord has ordered that the entire army rest and recuperate. At least until the lord comes back, we will ensure that none of the existing territory is lost!" Cheng Pu said loudly.
"yes!"
????????????
At the same time, Xiangyang,
At Liu Biao's house, Mrs. Cai walked out of the room and immediately closed the door.
Cai Hao, who was waiting outside the door, had his eyelids twitching and asked in a low voice,
"How is the situation, my lord?"
Mrs. Cai shook her head slightly and didn't say much, but her action said everything.
"Everything here must not be spread out." Mrs. Cai said solemnly.
"Of course!" Cai Mao nodded quickly and joked. Once word spread that Liu Biao was seriously ill, wouldn't people in Jingzhou become panic? By then, it is estimated that many people will defect to Jiangdong immediately. Once Sun Quan leads his troops to invade, Xiangyang City without a backbone will simply not be able to defend it!
"In addition, find a way to keep Liu Qi outside and don't let him come back." Mrs. Cai winked at Cai Mao.
Liu Qi is Liu Biao's eldest son. Logically speaking, after Liu Biao's death, Liu Qi should succeed him. But Liu Qi was not born to Mrs. Cai, so Mrs. Cai naturally had to find a way to put her own son Liu Cong in power.
Cai Mao nodded. He and Mrs. Cai are siblings, so naturally they have the same purpose.
To be honest, Sun Quan would definitely find it ridiculous when he saw everything happening here. The entire Jingzhou was about to be conquered by him, so he was still fighting for power and engaging in internal fighting here? Does it make sense? But the Cai family is in the middle of the situation, so they can't avoid it. Not only is this the case in Jingzhou now, but after Yuan Shao's death, Yuan Shao's sons fought among themselves and were eventually easily taken over by Cao Cao. Isn't it also the case?
Most people in the world only care about immediate benefits, and those who can transcend the world are always in the minority.
????????????
Here, on the Yangtze River, Sun Quan quickly came to the riverside, took a small boat and went down the river. Soon, a military ship from behind caught up.
"Lord!"
It was Zhou Tai and his party who came.
"Who asked you to follow?" Sun Quan said with a stern face. He did not give an order, and all these people left their posts without permission.
"I will go wherever your lord goes. I will fight and punish you, but it will be at your lord's command." Zhou Tai replied on the spot.
Sun Quan knew that Zhou Tai came to protect him out of good intentions, so it was impossible for him to punish Zhou Tai. Seeing that Zhou Tai's warship was faster than his own boat, Sun Quan responded to Sun Quan's eagerness to return to Jiangdong. Sun Quan jumped onto Zhou Tai's boat without saying much.
"How much do you know about Danyang?" Sun Quan immediately asked Zhou Tai after boarding the ship.
Sun Quan was indeed affected when he received the news on the first day, but after it was determined to be a "rumor", Sun Quan never cared about similar information, so that to this day, Sun Quan still does not know the details of the Danyang Incident.
"My lord, you really don't know about this." Zhou Tai, who usually rarely talks, couldn't help but sigh. This is the Sun Quan in his mind! Seeing Sun Quan's expression change, Zhou Tai quickly replied,
"My subordinates actually don't know much. I only heard that Master Sun Yi was killed by a guard named Bian Hong. Mrs. Wu was struck by this and fell ill in Danyang."
Hearing this again, Sun Quan's heart still couldn't help but ache.
"This is the earliest news, what about the rest?" Sun Quan endured the pain and asked.
"After that, Bian Hong was found from the mountains by Danyang's defenders and executed. Mrs. Wu was treated by Zhang Zhongjing sent by the Lord. I heard that the situation has improved a lot." Zhou Tai replied.
"What a mistake." Sun Quan sighed silently. He happened to get Zhang Zhongjing back to Jiangdong. He was really lucky among misfortunes. His mother's condition was stable, which somewhat alleviated Sun Quan's guilt for not returning home. Otherwise, Sun Quan really would not be able to forgive himself! Blame Zhu Ran? Of course Sun Quan was very angry with Zhu Ran, but if he really wanted to blame him, Sun Quan really couldn't blame him. After all, in the final analysis, the culprit of this incident is probably Sun Quan himself!
What Zhou Tai knew was only superficial. Cao Cao's letter made Sun Quan understand that Danyang's matter might not be that simple.
Therefore, Sun Quan must rush back to Jiangdong immediately! One is for my mother, and the other is to avenge my third brother! Sun Yi probably died because of Sun Quan. Sun Quan would never allow the real murderer to go free!
Therefore, even if the situation in Jingzhou is particularly good, even if Sun Quan has killed Liu Biao to a minimum in the poker game, Sun Quan now has to give up this great situation that he created!
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from a small boat facing us:
"I'll tell you everything about Danyang. I just came from there."
Zhou Tai frowned, but the person who spoke had jumped directly onto their warship.
"If what I expected is correct, you should have just found out about this." Diao Chan jumped on the boat and looked at Sun Quan and said.
Zhou Tai watched coldly from the side. Although he shouldn't care about Sun Quan's emotional affairs, Diao Chan's purpose of appearing here was very obvious. Diao Chan guessed that Sun Quan must not know what happened to Dan Yang, so she deliberately told Sun Quan about this. thing!
This woman is not out of good intentions, she is here to stop Sun Quan from continuing to attack Jingzhou!
It's one thing for Sun Quan to give up on his own, but it's another thing to be stopped. No matter how much Diao Chan had helped Sun Quan before, her behavior this time was enough for Zhou Tai to blacklist her.
"Mrs. Wu hasn't woken up yet. I've already informed the master of the restaurant, please send the best doctor from Jingzhai. We must get to Danyang as soon as possible. Your true energy may be able to help." Diao Chan continued.
In an instant, Sun Quan's heart, which had just been soothed, immediately became clenched again. Even the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing is helpless? How seriously ill is your mother? At this time, Sun Quan wanted to fly to Danyang immediately, and he was extremely anxious in his heart.
"Besides, your third brother's death may not be that simple. I heard a lot of rumors in Danyang, and many people suspected that Bian Hong was the scapegoat." Diao Chan said.
Zhou Tai next to him suddenly became anxious and rushed to say,
"You woman! Don't confuse the public with your monstrous words! You are also making nonsense of unfounded rumors. Do you think it is not chaotic enough now?"
"General Zhou Tai." Diao Chan turned to Zhou Tai, "I understand that you have considerations as subordinates, but please believe that I will not say nonsense without any basis. Besides." Said Diao Chan. Turning back to Sun Quan, "These are what Zhongmou wants to know most urgently. If I don't tell him, he will ask me."
The person who knows Sun Quan best in the world today, Diao Chan can definitely be ranked in the top three. Of course, in a sense, this is what Zhou Tai and others think is the most threatening.
