Zhao Yun and Ma Su stayed in Jiangdong together, leading 500 troops to station in the military camp outside the city. The two often practiced shooting skills together.

In his spare time, Ma Su often gathered with Sun Lang and other new friends, and lived a very fulfilling life. He also often went out to make some commercial layouts in Jiangdong for his third brother, Uncle Ma, and had personally established an inconspicuous commercial fleet.

This fleet mainly uses Jiangdong waterway to transport goods. Although the personnel and ships are invested by the Ma family, because the Ma family does not have a reliable official background in Jiangdong, it cannot ensure the safe operation of the fleet.

Therefore, when Ma Su took charge, the Ma family only occupied 30% of the fleet's shares, while Sun Lang was the major shareholder of the fleet, accounting for 40% of the shares.

The remaining 30% of the shares were the wedding gift given to Liu Bei by Ma Su, but it was recorded in Sun Shangxiang's name.

Originally, Zhao Yun wanted to protect Liu Bei's safety in person, but after Liu Bei got married, he was inseparable from Sun Shangxiang, so it was very inconvenient for Zhao Yun to be around.

It was Sun Shangxiang who took over Liu Bei's security work with the two hundred female guards, so it would be difficult for Zhao Yun to stay in the East Mansion again.

After Zhao Yun moved into the military camp, he did nothing all day long. Apart from practicing shooting skills with Ma Su, he just shot archery outside the city and went to Dongfu to dig Mao every morning.

Because of Sun Shangxiang's deliberate arrangements, the military camp provided a lot of food, and Zhao Yun's life was also very comfortable.

Time flies so fast. In a blink of an eye, the year is over, and the Chinese New Year is about to be celebrated. The soldiers from Jingzhou missed their families and asked for leave to go out to buy small gifts for their families. Zhao Yun suddenly came over and thought:

"Before leaving, the military advisor gave me three tips and taught me that after I arrived in Jianye, I opened the first one. I lived until the end of the year and opened the second one. When I was in danger and had no way out, I opened the third one. I had a plan to be invisible inside, so I could ensure that the lord would go home safely. At this time, the lord was greedy for women and went to Dian Mao every day, so I didn't meet each other. Why not take apart the second tip and go to see the plan?"

Zhao Yun took apart the second secret bag and looked at it. So that's it! He then went to the East Mansion to ask for a meeting with Liu Bei.

When the maid saw that it was not the time for Damao, she went in and reported to Liu Bei:

"Zhao Zilong came to report to the nobles if there is an emergency."

Liu Bei and Sun Shangxiang got married for several months, and Zhao Yun was steady and never disturbed for no reason.

Liu Bei knew that Zhao Yun would have something important to come here, so he did not dare to neglect him. He hurriedly called Zhao Yun in for inquiries. Zhao Yun pretended to be panic and reported:

"The lord lives in the painting hall. Don't he care about the safety of Jingzhou?"

When Liu Bei heard something in Zhao Yun's words, his old face turned red and replied:

"How can I not care? Jingzhou is my foundation! But there is a military advisor and two younger brothers guarding me, which is as solid as a god. Because I had an agreement with Zhongmou, I didn't want to break my trust from Mrs. Wu, so I didn't return to Jingzhou for the time being. Could something big happened in Jingzhou that made you so panic?"

Zhao Yun replied:

"This morning, the military advisor sent someone to report the message, saying that Cao Cao wanted to report the hatred of the fierce battle in Chibi. He raised hundreds of thousands of elite troops and rushed to Jingzhou. The situation was very critical. The military advisor asked the lord to return to Jingzhou as soon as possible and presided over the plan."

Liu Bei was not a foolish person. He had long discovered that Sun Quan kept him in Jiangdong because of a ill intention.

But he thought that Jingzhou was not a problem for the time being, so it was not difficult to get Sun Shangxiang pregnant. He did not have the intention of disobeying Mrs. Wu and Sun Quan. In addition, he was also a little greedy for pleasure, so he delayed it.

Now that he heard Zhao Yun’s report, Liu Bei was anxious, but he still calmed down and told Zhao Yun:

"Sun Quan's original intention was to not let me return to Jingzhou. If you want to ask Sun Quan to say goodbye and go back openly, it will definitely not work, but instead reveals our thoughts! After living together for these days, my relationship with my wife has become increasingly deeper and rarely separated. I am afraid it is difficult to hide it. We must discuss with our wife before we can get off. You go back and let You come to discuss and make plans. You must first reorganize the army in the military camp and be prepared to leave."

Zhao Yun replied: "If the lord discusses with his wife, I am afraid that the mistress will reveal the news to the old lady and Sun Quan, and he will not be willing to teach the lord to go back. It is better not to say it for now, leave the letter, quietly leave the East Mansion tonight, enter the military camp and set off immediately, if it is too late, it will be a mistake!"

Liu Bei has been married for several months. Although he was in love with Sun Shangxiang, he was not inseparable from it. The main reason is that Liu Bei cares very much about his reputation. He really doesn't want to do such a thing that he doesn't want to do without saying goodbye, so he waved to Zhao Yun:

"You should leave for the time being, and then make a decision after I discuss with Youchang!"

According to Zhuge Liang's plan, when I returned to Jingzhou this time, I actually had to get the cooperation of Sun Shangxiang to use the plan.

Therefore, when Zhao Yun came in to report, he did not deliberately whisper to avoid the female guards' eyes and ears. It is estimated that Sun Shangxiang was already aware of the situation, so Zhao Yun said goodbye.

When Liu Bei entered the inner room and saw Sun Shangxiang, he remembered their love, and he couldn't let it go, and couldn't help but shed tears secretly.

When Sun Shangxiang saw Liu Bei, she was a little panicked and asked quickly:

"Why are you worried about your husband?"

Liu Bei didn't dare to tell the truth, so he tentatively said:

"The Chinese New Year is coming, and it's time to worship my ancestors again. However, I, Liu Bei, were wandering in a foreign land and could not serve my parents. Now I cannot worship my ancestors. This is a great rebellion and unfilial piety. Could it be that my ancestors blamed me and made my wife unable to conceive for a long time? I was so sad."

As a woman, Sun Shangxiang was not familiar with worshiping his ancestors, but she was also anxious about her delay in pregnancy. When she heard Liu Bei’s words, she believed it a little and she burst into tears:

"Husband, don't hide it from me, I have heard it just now! Zhao Zilong reported the critical incident in Jingzhou. You want to go back to Jingzhou to deal with it, so you mean this."

When Liu Bei heard that Mrs. Sun had expressed her intention and did not stop her from leaving, he gently hugged Sun Shangxiang and said softly:

"Mrs. I will no longer hide it. It is inevitable that I will return to Jingzhou. If I don't go back, if I lose something in Jingzhou, I will be ridiculed by the people of the world and regret it too late! If I leave alone and cannot bear to leave you, Madam, so I am worried. But worshiping ancestors is not a false statement, but also my filial piety."

Mrs. Sun said: "Since I have married my husband, I am a member of the Liu family. No matter where my husband goes, I should follow my life and death."

When Liu Bei heard this, he was quite moved and said to Mrs. Sun:

"Even if the wife is like this, we cannot make decisions in Jianye. The old lady and Zhongmou will be willing to follow me? If the wife loves Liu Bei, we will say goodbye for the time being and think of reunion in the future." After saying that, tears fell like rain.

Mrs. Sun's eyes were also red and she said in a sob:

"Don't worry, husband! My mother loves me the most on weekdays. I should complain to my mother, or leave me with me."

Liu Bei didn't want the old lady and Sun Quan to know about this. It would be difficult to leave quietly at that time! He told Sun Shangxiang the truth:

"Madam, you must have known that the marriage between Sun and Liu was originally Zhou Yu's plan to use you as bait to win Jiangling. Although I was favored by the old lady and had a favor with her, I achieved a happy marriage, but Zhongmou never let me leave Jianye, so naturally he still had the intention of plotting against me in Jingzhou. This time, Cao Cao sent troops, even though he did not conspire with Brother Ling, he would definitely not miss the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. Even if his mother-in-law agreed, Zhongmou would definitely stop him."

Sun Shangxiang is not a lady who never leaves her home. She has two hundred maids who are a master of martial arts. She often goes out and has a very well-informed experience.

She and Liu Bei were in love, but after knowing that Zhou Yu had used the trick, she also had a grudge against Sun Quan in her heart. She pondered for a long time and said to Liu Bei with a determined look on her face:

"It is not a long-term solution for us to live here. I decided to return to Jingzhou with my husband! When we celebrated our mother's greetings on the New Year, my husband said that we would go to the river to worship our ancestors and pray for children. This is filial piety. Even my second brother Sun Quan has no reason to stop you, and then we can leave without complaining. What?"

When Liu Bei was very happy to see Sun Shangxiang expressing his attitude clearly, he said to Sun Shangxiang:
Chapter completed!
