Koto.
Jianye.
In the palace study, Sun Quan summoned a small number of his cronies to discuss peace negotiations with Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong.
"Alas~"
Sun Quan sighed. Over the past few days, he had lost a few pounds.
His father and brother handed over the inheritance to him, but now he has a feeling that it is difficult to grasp it.
"Lord, these are the conditions we need to negotiate and the parts that can be fought for."
Zhuge Jin handed the form to Sun Quan.
Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong and others were also standing by.
Opening the book, the contents inside made Sun Quan frown tightly.
Negotiate peace, send food and people, and renew alliances.
One after another, the more Sun Quan looked at it, the more angry he became.
"Let's do it this way, Ziyu. You will be the envoy on this mission."
"promise!"
Zhuge Jin accepted the order, but there was still hesitation on his face.
"My lord, since we are going on a mission, what should we do about Mrs. Sun and the marriage?"
I want to go on a mission, and if I can't even meet the conditions in the form, how can Liu Chan believe in their sincerity?
How can this negotiation for peace and alliance be accomplished?
Sun Quan naturally knew the meaning of Zhuge Jin's words.
"Don't worry, I have told Mrs. Sun the news. If she understands the truth, she will come back to Jianye Palace tonight. As for the marriage, I will also give you an answer tonight."
These terrible things really made Sun Zhongmou very angry.
At that time, he could still use the engagement to trap Liu Bei in Jiangdong, but he had learned from the past and it might not be that easy to lure Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong, into Jiangdong.
There is no such stupid person in the world as falling down twice on a rock. At least that little fox Liu Chan is not such a stupid person!
"In this way, I will feel relieved."
Zhuge Jin looked at the depressed Sun Quan with some distress, and comforted him: "My lord, Mencius says: Therefore, when Heaven is about to assign a great responsibility to a person, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, and deplete his body." The body and actions mess up what it does, so tempting the mind and forbearance has benefited what it could not do.
If the Lord can learn from the setbacks he suffered and turn it to his own advantage, then why worry about failing to achieve his royal career? "
"I appreciate Ziyu's good intentions."
Sun Quan stood up from the cushion. His eyes were still full of fighting spirit, but there was no trace of decadence.
"If such a mere setback can make me, Sun Zhongmou, crumble, how can I be a hero? How can I be the master of Jiangdong?"
Seeing such a heroic Sun Quan, Zhuge Jin's eyes also lit up.
"What my lord said is absolutely true. Victory or defeat is nothing to worry about. Only the one who laughs to the end is a hero!"
good!
The last laugh!
Sun Quan's eyes were dark, and I lurked secretly to watch Liu Xuande and Cao Mengde come out of their shells!
With such a wretched development, I still don’t believe that I can’t win!
"Please take this trip to Jiangling!"
Sun Quan bowed his hands in greeting to Zhuge Jin.
"Jin Ding has lived up to his lord's trust!"
Although his missions rarely succeed, this time, he must succeed!
"I'll take my leave!"
Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong and others followed Zhuge Jin out of the study.
After everyone left, Sun Quan slumped down on the deerskin cushion in the study room.
"Alas~"
In front of his ministers, he naturally has to pretend to be ambitious, but when he is alone, who knows his suffering?
"Call Mrs. Bu to come over."
Sun Quan shouted to the waiter outside the door.
"No!" The waiter outside the door took the order and left.
Not long after, Sun Quan felt a burst of fragrant wind.
Not far away, Bu Lianshi slowly walked into the room. She was dressed simply, with a green skirt covering a purple shirt. However, the simple clothes fully displayed her mature female charm. She was dignified and generous, yet still mature and charming, just like It looks like a delicate and ripe peach, so mouth-watering that you can't help but want to take a bite.
When you come closer, your face is like a peach blossom, your body is like a weak willow facing the wind, your eyebrows are like a spring mountain with rain, your eyes are like autumn water with affection, your brows are frowning, and the room is filled with brilliance.
Duan is a beauty who can shorten a person's life by ten years!
"Husband~"
Trainer Bu called out softly, and the voice was charming, as if it could penetrate into the bones.
Sun Quan also suffered from numbness in his body.
"I wonder what my husband has ordered me to do when he has summoned my concubine here?"
Although Master Bu has two daughters, he is still in his early thirties and is at his most ferocious age. His eyes are tender and tender, and his fair skin seems to be able to squeeze out water with just a pinch.
Her voice was soft and soothing, like a jade bead compass, her eyes looked at Sun Quan with a smile, her cheeks were as clear as jade, and a few strands of hair were caressed from her forehead, giving her a hint of nobility and majesty.
"That's what I told you about the marriage last night."
"I heard that Liu Chan, Xuande's son, is a great man. He conquered Nanzhong in three months. Now he has become a thorn in my husband's side. With his talents, he is worthy of being a big tiger or a little tiger."
The big tiger refers to Sun Quan's eldest daughter Sun Luban, and the little tiger refers to Sun Quan's youngest daughter Sun Luyu.
"Of course I deserve it."
Although he felt disgusted when he heard Liu Chan's name, he had to say that Liu Chan, the crown prince of Hanzhong, was indeed rare among his peers.
It seems like his son is still walking around like a hawk and fighting dog, having fun all day long, how can he show any signs of being a wise master?
"It's just that this kid is really hateful! He has repeatedly ruined my good deeds, and now it has severely damaged my Jiangdong vitality. Even Ziming has fallen into his hands, alas~"
Sun Quan sighed deeply.
Compared with the ministers, in front of Master Bu, the mask of disguise on Sun Quan's face was obviously removed a few layers.
The look of sadness can also be revealed a little.
Trainer Bu rested his head in Sun Quan's arms and said with a chuckle: "Now that the situation is like this, why is my husband so worried?"
The beauty's lips and teeth were slightly open, with a smile on her face, and she said: "Kang's alliance with Liu Chan should be a good thing for my husband. The Jiaozhou gentry, Guangzhou chieftains, Yangzhou Shanyue, and Changsha barbarians are now disturbing my husband. If we marry Liu Chan, Won’t the trouble in the rear be solved? By then, my husband will raise a large army to attack Hefei. If he can occupy Xuzhou, it is also possible to achieve the foundation of overlordship!"
"What you say makes sense, madam."
A smile appeared on Sun Quan's face again.
"Feeling sad is what a weak person does. I am the Lord, and I shouldn't be like this!"
"It's good that your husband understands."
Trainer Bu's cheeks were rosy and his eyes were blurry.
"It's just... In this marriage, will the big tiger go, or the little tiger?"
Luban, the great tiger's grandson, was twenty-eight years old, the right age for marriage.
And Xiaohu Sun Lu Yu is thirteen years old, about the same age as Liu Chan.
If you want to get married, the older the better, but thinking about the temperament of his eldest daughter Sun Luban, as a mother, Bu Lianshi also frowned.
"Dahu is too upright and overbearing. If we let him get married and go to Jingzhou, what if he offends Liu Chan?"
"Although Xiaohu has a gentle temperament, he is still young and does not have many independent opinions. After going to Jingzhou, if he does not have the love of his husband, he is afraid that life will be difficult."
Poor parents in the world!
Although I had known that my daughter must be used for marriage.
Even if he does not marry Liu Chan now, he will marry his officials and subordinates in the future to win people's hearts.
But when this moment really comes, it is hard to feel happy.
This is where noble ladies belong.
The wealth and glory they enjoy in daily life have to pay a price.
"Husband, do you have any suggestions?"
Big tiger and little tiger?
Sun Quan frowned slightly.
"If I were to make the decision, it would be best for Dahu to do it. But if Dahu offends Mr. Liu, what will happen to him?"
Sun Quan also knew his daughter's temperament well.
"Then let Xiaohu go?"
"Xiaohu is too young. He may not be able to attract Liu Chan and prevent Liu Chan from becoming my enemy Jiangdong."
Since it is a marriage, it is natural to enjoy the pillow breeze every day.
Compared to Sun Luyu, whose body is not spread out and is still a little lolita, Sun Luban, whose body is spread out and already shows the charm of a young girl, is undoubtedly a better candidate.
If he can win the favor of Liu Chan, and the wind blows by his pillow every day, then the Liu-Sun Alliance will be as stable as a mountain.
Sun Quan stepped forward to train the two trainers, showing hesitation.
"In that case, why not meet them and see what they think."
Instead of wasting thoughts, why not tell the two of them about this and see how they react?
From the reactions of the two people, the candidate can be roughly determined.
"That's fine."
Master Bu stood up from Sun Quan's arms and quickly arranged his clothes and makeup.
Sun Quan dusted himself off.
"Let's go."
Jianye Palace, adjacent to Zhongshan, has a garden that occupies a large area.
The garden is surrounded by high walls, creating a paradise. Not only are there countless flowers and trees, but there is also a meandering stream that divides the entire garden into two parts.
The stream is crystal clear, the lotus flowers are in full bloom, and the green lotus leaves are dotted with pink petals. There is a pavilion by the stream where you can rest and enjoy the shade in the hot summer. The willow trees by the stream hang down their long branches, rippling on the surface of the stream, giving it a unique flavor.
At this moment, there were several bullock carts parked by the garden stream, as well as a wooden carriage, and more than a dozen attendants and maids, each holding feather fans, square mattresses, scrolls, wishful things and other things to wait on them. Two young girls were talking and laughing. Pick flowers in the garden.
The leading woman is twenty-eight years old, six feet tall, wearing a goose-yellow shirt. Her waist is as thin as a willow in early spring. Even at a young age, her figure is plump and graceful, outlining a wonderful arc. Her eyebrows are curved, delicate and beautiful, her long eyelashes flicker slightly, and her bright red mouth is as delicate and attractive as a newborn cherry.
Behind her, followed a little loli who was half a head shorter than her.
Sun Luyu has willow eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes, a beautiful nose and red lips, and peach cheeks. Although she is young, she has already matured. Especially at this moment, her jade is drooping, like a pear-shaped hairtail fish, with an indescribable charm. Pretty taste.
The two of them were walking in the garden, and they were naturally more attractive than the flowers in the garden.
"Little tiger."
Sun Luban turned to look at her little follower and said, "Do you know that Jiangling was defeated?"
Sun Luban was a little older and was good at sneaking into camps, so she knew a little about the news.
"I don't know about this."
Sun Luyu shook his head and said: "Mother said, political affairs in the court and killing on the battlefield are men's business. We can just be husbands and raise children."
"Teaching your husband to your children, taking care of your husband and raising your children, is what ordinary women do. How can you and I not care about the world's major events if we are of high status?"
Sun Luban's chest puffed up. She looked at Sun Luyu and said, "If you really don't understand at all, you won't know how you died in the future."
Seeing his sister's expression of resentment, Sun Luyu stuck out his tongue, but his eyes turned to the flowers in front of him.
"Sister, this is beautiful."
Good-looking? What's so nice about flowers?
Sun Luban stroked his head and said: "Did you know that Jiangling was defeated? All the 30,000 soldiers of our Jiangdong army were missing, and the governor Lu Meng was even captured alive. Once Jiangling is defeated, I, Jiangdong, will no longer be able to plan Jingzhou." , do you know this?"
"If you can't plan, you can't plan. Isn't it great to be in Jiangdong?"
"No ambition!"
Sun Luban snorted coldly and said: "Father wants to achieve the foundation of kingship. How can he dominate if he cannot win Jingzhou?"
Seeing his sister's indifferent expression, Sun Luban said again: "I heard news that my father is preparing to negotiate peace with Jingzhou. One of the conditions is marriage. Now, under my father's knees, the only people who can marry are you and me. You two, now, do you still think that the defeat of Jingzhou has nothing to do with you?"
Marriage?
Sun Luyu's eyes finally turned from Hua'er to his sister.
"But if it's a marriage, it should be Sister A who is of marriageable age."
Sun Luyu's words made Sun Luban tremble with anger. She turned red and said, "Why should you let me go? You can't go?"
If you go for a marriage, isn't that becoming a political victim?
When she arrived in Jingzhou, she had no one to rely on, so she had no choice but to support her husband and raise her children!
This kind of ending was something she definitely didn't want to see.
Especially when I think of the fate of my sister-in-law Sun Shangxiang. She was originally the apple of Jiangdong's eye, but was promised a husband who could be her father. And because of the relationship between the two families, she returned to Jiangdong and lived a lonely life.
Being completely insulated from politics was definitely not what Sun Luban wanted.
She, Sun Luban, wants to be Queen Mother Dou and Mi Bazi, how can she be a political victim?
"But my sister is older than my sister!"
Is there anything wrong with being old?
Sun Luban's face was blurred with anger, but she soon changed her appearance.
"Good sister."
Sun Luban gently took his little sister's slender hand and said: "Sister already has someone in mind. Besides, you know my ambition. If you go to Jingzhou, you might as well kill me. Good sister, I'm begging you. This time , can"
Sun Luyu was stunned for a moment, with a look of embarrassment on her face.
"It's just, how can my sister help you? Since ancient times, marriage contracts have been made by parents or matchmakers."
"As long as you are willing to help sister!"
Seeing that Sun Luyu did not refuse directly, Sun Luban's face immediately showed joy, and he was also very enthusiastic towards her, the little tiger sister.
"This marriage is definitely a trap for me, but for Sister Little Tiger, it might be a good home! Have you ever heard of Prince Liu Chan's name?"
Prince Liu Chan?
Sun Luyu nodded lightly and said, "During this period, my father has been talking about Liu Chan's name, and many people in the palace have also talked about Prince Liu Chan in private."
"If Prince Liu Chan is my talented man from Jiangdong, and I marry him, I will marry him immediately. Unfortunately, he is not a talented man from Jiangdong, but the prince of an enemy country."
If you think about it carefully, it is almost difficult to find young talents who can compare with the young master Liu Chan. Logically speaking, the young master Liu Chan should be a good match.
It's a pity that she has big ambitions and will never take the path of becoming a political victim!
"In March, the rebellion in Nanzhong was put down. When I came to Jingzhou, I was able to make Jiangdong so passive, cut off my thoughts about Jingzhou, and even want to marry for peace. What is this if I am not a hero?"
Sun Luban's eyes flashed, and she smiled and said to Sun Luyu: "I heard that Prince Liu Chan has sharp eyebrows, a straight nose, and thin lips. He has a handsome appearance and an outstanding heroic appearance. If my sister is promised to him, I'm afraid she will fall in love at the first sight. Fancy it."
"Sister, you're joking again."
Sun Luyu looked down at the tips of his shoes, as if he was shy.
"My good sister, you must help me this time, I beg you."
Sun Luban was in tears, and he looked as pitiable as he could.
"Sister, I."
"If my sister doesn't want to, then forget it. When I get married, I will jump into the river. I would rather die than go to Jingzhou!" Sun Luban had a miserable look on his face, but his eyes were determined.
"Sister, how can you say such depressing words? What if my parents find out about it?"
"Help me, good sister, can you help me?"
Seeing her sister pleading, Sun Luyu felt soft in her heart, but she was not a fool. This matter was related to a major event in her family's life, so she must not be hasty.
"Sister, I."
"You still refuse?"
Sun Luban’s eyebrows stood up!
"Is it possible that you are willing to have me die in front of you? Anyway, after I die, you have to marry to Jingzhou, why can't you help me?"
Seeing Sun Luban's aggressive look, Sun Luyu could only say: "If my father is willing to let me go, I will naturally go. If my father doesn't let me go, then my sister will go, okay?"
"Okay, okay!"
Sun Luban said three good things in a row.
With her little tiger sister agreeing to this promise, she has passed this test!
"Father is here!"
From a distance, Sun Luban saw Sun Quan and Bu Lianshi approaching.
"Good sister."
Sun Luban took his little sister's thin hand and squeezed it gently.
"We just agreed."
"Um."
Sun Luyu nodded lightly. In her opinion, Sun Luban was older than her, so even if there was a marriage, she would most likely go with it.
"The daughter pays homage to her father and mother."
The two of them saluted Sun Quan and Trainer Bu.
"I came here to enjoy the flowers on an outing again. The scenery here is really nice."
Before in the palace, Sun Quan was still in a depressed mood, but now in the back garden, his mood suddenly became more relaxed.
"No need to be polite, just come to the pavilion."
The pavilion by the stream is very cool, and the servants and servants have already prepared tea and food in the pavilion.
Sun Quan knelt and sat on the main seat, while Bu Lianshi knelt and sat beside Sun Quan, half a body behind him.
"Big Tiger, Little Tiger, you also sit down."
After taking a sip of scented tea and a bite of snacks, Sun Quan looked at Sun Luban and Sun Luyu and said, "I came to see you today because I have something to talk to you about."
coming!
Sun Luban's heart tightened, and his brows frowned subconsciously.
Remembering what Sun Luban had said to her just now, Sun Luyu's palms were already starting to sweat.
"You don't have to be nervous. It's just a matter of marriage. I haven't decided on the candidate yet."
Seeing that the two daughters were nervous, Sun Quan chuckled twice and said, "Sit down."
"promise."
After the two of them sat down, Sun Quan continued: "No matter whether the final candidate is Big Tiger or Little Tiger, there is one thing you need to know. When you go to Jingzhou, you will not be like your parents in Jiangdong. You must behave like a big woman. Feng, on weekdays, I have to take good care of Liu Chan to ensure that our alliance between Jiangdong and Jingzhou is safe."
While talking, Sun Quan was also observing the expressions of his two daughters.
The big tiger Sun Luban frowned, showing reluctance at first glance. The little tiger Sun Lu lowered his head and could not see her expression.
"Then Mr. Liu is not an ungrateful person. What's more, he is talented in literature, martial arts, and is proficient in everything. How many people can't ask for his wife."
Trainer Bu said from the side.
"Father, Dahu doesn't want to marry to Jingzhou!" Sun Luban immediately expressed his stance!
"What are your parents' orders for a matchmaker? Are you saying you can go if you want to, but you can't go if you don't want to?" Sun Quan frowned and his tone became cold.
"Listen to my daughter~"
Sun Luban stood up and said slowly: "First, my daughter has her own ambitions and a perverse temperament. If she goes to Jingzhou, she will inevitably conflict with Prince Liu Chan, which will ruin her father's plan. What should she do?
Secondly, my little sister’s heart belongs to Mr. Liu. She just told her daughter that it would be great if she could marry someone as great as Prince Liu Chan! Moreover, the little sister's gentle temperament and stunning appearance will surely make Liu Chan's heart flutter, and her father's plan will surely come true. "
"oh?"
After hearing what his eldest daughter said, the corners of Sun Quan's eyes lit up a lot.
"That makes sense."
Trainer Bu didn't know what her eldest daughter was thinking. She glanced at her younger daughter who had her head lowered and was silent. She was about to speak, but she seemed to think of something and sat back down.
"Xiaohu, are you willing to marry to Jingzhou and become the wife of Mr. Liu?"
