I really can’t blame Kou Feng for being so confused.
The Emperor of the Han Dynasty also had a habit of cutting off his sleeves. In these days, there are not a few people who have this hobby.
This kind of thing, in this era, or even a few hundred years later, is not a new thing, it is just a hobby.
Kou Feng immediately understood why Sun Shangxiang just kept emphasizing "old friend", but even if he didn't explain how he met his brother, he had been quarreling for a long time. It turned out that he was his brother's child molester.
Well, it's hard to say anything about his brother's "preference", but Kou Feng will never have a good look towards Sun Shangxiang anymore.
Hobbies are hobbies, but if you look down on them, you really look down on serious people who act like pedophiles.
Kou Feng instantly lost interest in entertaining Sun Shangxiang, but at any rate, he arranged a place for Sun Shangxiang to live. Then the next day, he sent two of his close guards to send Sun Shangxiang to the ferry, intending to send Sun Shangxiang to Xiakou. Go and reunite with your brother.
Then he happened to meet Sun Qian who was returning from a mission to Jiangdong.
"Where are you going, Gongzhong?!" Sun Qian smiled and greeted Kou Feng.
Kou Feng quickly clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "I'm back to work with Sun. Today, my old friend came to join me. I didn't expect that my brother has already returned to Jiangxia, so I sent my old friend to Xiakou to meet my brother."
Sun Qian didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded.
It was just a conversation to greet each other, with no special purpose.
But when Sun Qian saw Zhang Xi's "old friend" in Kou Feng's mouth, he was suddenly stunned.
Feel like you've seen it somewhere? !
But then, Sun Qian also shook his head and laughed at himself.
As Liu Bei's envoy, I often travel to various places and meet many different people, so I feel familiar with everyone I see. This is an occupational disease.
Sun Qian didn't say much. He said goodbye to Kou Feng with a smile, and then went to report to Liu Bei about his visit to Jiangdong and his interview with Sun Quan.
But before he reached Liu Bei's mansion, Sun Qian was suddenly stunned.
He suddenly remembered that Zhang Xi's old friend looked familiar.
He looks very similar to Sun Quan, the leader of Jiangdong.
At this time, Sun Quan didn't have "green eyes and purple beard" appearance. He had a square face and had only grown a short beard in the past few years. He was not the image in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
As for the man just now, apart from his face shape and temperament, he was really similar to Sun Quan in his facial features. It was just that he was not as strong as Sun Quan's facial features, but a little softer.
Are there really such similar people in this world? !
Or, what is the relationship between that person just now and Sun Quan? !
Of course, even if Sun Qian was killed, he would never have thought that it was Sun Shangxiang.
After all, these days, it is unimaginable for a noble lady from a prince's family to run away hundreds of miles over a disagreement.
Since Kou Feng said that he was Zhang Xi's old friend, let's put it aside for now and wait until the report is over before asking Kou Feng for more information.
Therefore, Sun Qian first went to Liu Bei's residence and reported the results of this mission to Liu Bei.
I can't say it's good, but I can't say it's bad either.
Liu Bei had tactfully rejected Sun Quan's marriage proposal, but the "incompatible age" argument was still questioned by Sun Quan.
"Is there any reason why a hero and a beauty should not be matched by their age?!"
Although Sun Quan said this with a smile, Sun Qian could not think that Sun Quan was joking.
This matter, most likely, is still a bit troublesome. Is it possible that Sun Quan is determined to marry his sister? !
Liu Bei also had a gloomy look on his face.
If Sun Quan gave up, Liu Bei might still be a little embarrassed, feeling that he had refuted Sun Quan's face.
But the more determined Sun Quan was to force his sister over, the more Liu Bei felt that things were not simple.
If there were just multiple head wives, Liu Bei really wouldn't be that troublesome. After all, in this day and age, with Liu Bei's status, if he married a 20-year-old head wife at the age of fifty, no one would say whether he was worthy or not.
But the problem is that this wife is Sun Quan's sister, and Zhang Xi's life was in vain for a while, which made Liu Bei realize the problem of heir.
Now Liu Bei was already wary of Sun Quan's idea of a marriage. He didn't believe that Sun Quan planned to marry his sister just to consolidate the alliance.
Therefore, the more Liu Bei thought about it, the more he felt that his official wife could be anyone, but it must not be Sun Quan's sister.
Even if you marry a daughter of the Jiangdong family who is related to Sun Quan, you cannot directly marry Sun Quan, otherwise it will be easy for others to interfere with the issue of heirs in the future.
But how to deal with this matter appropriately is also a troublesome matter.
I've already politely rejected Sun Quan once. I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate to reject him a second time, right? !
Yes, this matter needs to be discussed with Zhuge Liang and others.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with Zhang Xi here. After all, everyone has gone back, and it is not convenient to go back and forth.
As for what Sun was doing, he did participate. After all, he had been on many missions to Jiangdong, so he was familiar with the situation there and could have a reference.
After finishing his busy work, Sun Qian returned to his residence and remembered that there was still something about Kou Feng.
There was no rush anyway, and Sun Qian did not send someone to find Kou Feng immediately. Instead, he rested for a day and found Kou Feng the next day.
Just ask about the situation.
Probably just to find out what the surname and name of the person Kou Feng sent away yesterday was, where he was from, and what his relationship was with Zhang Xi.
After all, he looks a lot like Sun Quan. If he is related to Sun Quan in any way, let's not neglect him.
After all, he is a relative of an ally. Even if he cannot be beaten, as a host, he still has to entertain those who should be entertained.
But how could Kou Feng answer these questions?
First of all, when he asked yesterday, Sun Shangxiang only said that his surname was Sun, and didn't say anything else, but he killed Zhang Xi's old friend.
Secondly, Kou Feng guessed that Sun Shangxiang was Zhang Xi's prostitute. Later, he was too lazy to deal with this person, so he did not learn more about it.
Therefore, Kou Feng knew nothing except that his surname was Sun.
But this was enough for Sun Qian to further deepen his judgment.
His surname is Sun, and he looks quite similar to Sun Quan. Maybe he is Sun Quan's cousin.
All of Sun Quan's brothers were dead, but there were a lot of cousins. Sun Qian didn't think there was anything strange about this.
Until now, Sun Qian didn't notice anything wrong. He even thought that when he goes to Jiangdong next time as an envoy, he would go to Xiakou to find Zhang Xi and ask him to entertain Sun Quan's relatives well. Some people went back and said that the people in Liu Bei's group did not understand etiquette.
At this time, Sun Shangxiang, led by Kou Feng's close guards, had arrived at the gate of Zhang's mansion in Xiakou.
Sun Shangxiang took two deep breaths, adjusted his mood, and knocked on the door of Zhang Xi's house.
Soon, a concierge came to open the door, and Sun Shangxiang handed over her identity document and check-in. She had no experience in visiting other people, and she didn't even know that such a thing as a name card existed.
The concierge looked at the things handed over with a surprised look, as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person. I am not a government official here, why are you showing me this? !
But fortunately, Sun Shangxiang finally spoke.
"My dear, Sun Ren, is an old friend of Zhang Yuanchang, so I came here to visit you."
The concierge is not such an idiot that he doesn't know the brand name of his master. After all, Xiao Qibao's management is still very strict in this regard.
Immediately confess to Sun Shangxiang, and then rush to inform the Qibao housekeeper.
Little Qibao quickly came out to greet him.
"You are neglecting your distinguished guest, please don't blame me!" Xiao Qibao greeted Sun Shangxiang with a smile, invited Sun Shangxiang to sit down in the lobby, served tea, and then explained, "My master is on duty today and is busy in the government office. It's official business. Please wait for a while, your distinguished guest, and I will send someone to the government office to inform the Lord."
Sun Shangxiang looked at Xiao Qibao in surprise and nodded slightly.
Sun Shangxiang thought that he was relatively familiar with Zhang Xi. He knew that Zhang Xi came from a poor family, and he had seen many times of the unruly way he and Xiaoba got along. She thought that Zhang Xi was the kind of person who "doesn't stick to trivial matters."
Unexpectedly, the housekeeper in Zhang Xi's house behaved like someone from a wealthy family. He was polite and courteous in his dealings and had the style of a noble family.
So Sun Shangxiang doesn't understand. If a housekeeper can do such an outstanding job, how can Zhang Xi be the only one? Forget it, this is not my home, so why bother with it.
Sun Shangxiang waited quietly until Zhang Xi hurried back from the government office.
Zhang Xi really didn't know where his friend from other places came from. The servant who came to report the news said that the visitor's name was "Sun Ren".
Zhang Xi was so frightened that he almost dropped his pen.
My great master Fuxi finally sent this young lady away. Why did she come back again? !
And this time he actually found his own mansion and came up? !
By the way, who the bastard told her his home address? !
Uh. Well, this is not an important question. You can find out where the Jun Cheng's mansion is by just asking around on the streets of Xiakou.
In fact, none of these are important. The most important thing is - if this girl doesn't stay in Jiangling and harm Zhou Yu, why does she come to Xiakou? !
