Chapter 282 Lu Meng's Plan (3)
Sun Shangxiang’s marriage to Liu Bei was a result of good things and many twists and turns.
First, Sun Shangxiang was unhappy because she was used as a tool for political marriage by her family. In addition, Liu Bei was too old and was very resistant, but she had no choice but to ask her younger brother Sun Lang to inquire about Liu Bei's news.
Fortunately, the Sun family has strict tutoring, and Sun Shangxiang has a high vision. She is in the boudoir, but she does not have anyone she likes. She is still a little curious about the famous Liu Bei. By chance, she met Ma Su who accompanied Liu Bei at her younger brother Sun Lang's house.
Because Ma Su and Sun Lang were good friends, under his deliberate fooling, Sun Shangxiang's heroic complex was touched, and she was the first to fall in love with the tragic hero Liu Bei who was defeated repeatedly.
After the two got married, Liu Bei deliberately catered to him. With his charm as a middle-aged uncle, he easily captured the heart of Sun Shangxiang, who had an Oedipus complex.
Sun Quan was going to put Liu Bei in disguise in Jiangdong, but Sun Shangxiang should have cooperated with Sun Quan.
But Liu Bei won the favor of Sun Shangxiang. They were one husband and wife. In order for their husband to return to Jingzhou safely, Sun Shangxiang did not hesitate to rebel with his brother Sun Quan, and also wanted to return to Jingzhou with Liu Bei, showing his "girl outgoing" nature!
After returning to Jingzhou, Liu Bei was still quite fond of Sun Shangxiang at first, but later he was busy with business and was a little wary of Sun Quan's sister. He gradually became a little distant from Sun Shangxiang, which made her feel a little disappointed.
Fortunately, Liu Bei was quite self-disciplined and did not mess with other women.
Moreover, Liu Bei's son A Dou is quite attached to Sun Shangxiang.
Although Sun Shangxiang was plotted by Lu Meng and could not conceive of Liu Bei's child, it did not affect her maternal nature. She regarded Adou as her own child.
Adou became a bond that connected Liu Bei and Sun Shangxiang's relationship. Although their relationship was not strong, their life was normal for a blessing, and there was no major problem.
But Sun Shangxiang is a hero among women after all, and she is unwilling to be unknown. After being dragged into the water by Lu Meng, she asked Liu Bei for 200 female guards in Chanling to ask for thousands of acres of military land.
The female guards' families were all in Jiangdong, and a small number were coming here. Sun Shangxiang built a farm there, mainly resettled the female guards' families, and hired some tenants, helpers, etc., and gradually formed a large-scale town.
When Sun Shangxiang was free, she often went there and lived there for a short time, and was called "Madam Sun City" by the locals.
When Liu Bei went to Xichuan, he handed over his son A Dou to Sun Shangxiang to raise him. Only then did Sun Shangxiang take over Liu Bei's governor's residence and become his veritable mistress.
Because this is a political marriage, although Liu Bei did not treat Sun Shangxiang as an enemy, he was obviously not relieved to hand over his only son to her to raise. He also made arrangements in secret. The guards and maids in the mansion were almost all Liu Bei's eyes.
Here, Sun Shangxiang wrote a letter. Before the person left, there was a spy who had already reported to Zhuge Liang, who was in charge of Jingzhou affairs.
When Zhuge Liang heard this, he immediately understood what Sun Quan meant and quickly notified Zhao Yun to go to the riverside to stop him.
Zhuge Liang was doing things safely, afraid that Zhao Yun would make a mistake, so he sent someone to notify Zhang Fei, who was patrolling the river, and led his army to intercept him downstream.
Even so, Zhuge Liang was still worried. He was afraid that Jiangdong would send a naval army to the naval army camp himself, and set up thousands of naval troops, and went downstream to prepare to pick up Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei, and intimidate Jiangdong's men.
Seeing that it was Mrs. Sun's trip, no one stopped him. Sun Shangxiang and his party quickly came to the riverside. Zhou Shan's men responded to everyone on the boat. They were about to drive the boat, but someone shouted on the shore:
"Don't start the boat and let me and my wife have a farewell!"
Zhou Shan looked up and saw that the visitor was Zhao Yun, the commander of Jiangling.
After Liu Bei left, Zhao Yun sat in Jiangling and patroled himself every day. After receiving the general order from military advisor Zhuge Liang, he had no time to reorganize the army and came with only four or five cavalry, and rushed along the river like a whirlwind.
Zhou Shan naturally refused to dock, held a long sword in his hand and shouted on the boat:
"What is your identity and is qualified to be practiced by the mistress? This is to stop the mistress from acting!"
After Zhou Shan finished speaking, he ordered his soldiers to drive the boat together, and the rest of them took out their weapons from the cabin and placed them on the deck, clearly trying to force them to walk.
The wind was smooth and the water was fast, and the riverside ships all followed the flow. Zhao Yun chased him on the shore, and was very anxious. He rode his horse and chased him along the river, shouting:
"How dare the last general stop the mistress? It's just that the lord came from Xichuan and needed to report to the mistress in person, please stop the boat to the shore for the time being." Zhou Shan just ignored it and urged his soldiers to row hard.
Zhao Yun rushed along the river for more than ten miles. Although he was not pulled down, he was unable to get on the boat and was helpless. Suddenly, he saw a fishing boat on the slanted cables on the river beach.
Without too much thought, Zhao Yun abandoned his horse and held a gun and jumped onto the fishing boat. He only brought two guards to the boat and chased after him as the big boat where his wife was riding.
Zhou Shan finally tricked Sun Shangxiang into the ship, so he naturally didn't want to fail, so he taught the soldiers to shoot arrows to stop Zhao Yun from getting closer.
Zhao Yun was very skilled in martial arts, and his gun was used to spread the gun, but he couldn't pour it in. He used his gun to push it, and all the arrows fell into the water.
The small fishing boat was still more than meter away from the big boat. Zhao Yun made a move and wanted to jump. Zhou Shan ordered his soldiers to stab him with guns, so he did not let Zhao Yun approach the side of the boat.
Zhao Yun abandoned the gun on the boat, and put the blue sword he wore in his hand. He separated the gun and rushed. He saw Wu's boat jumping. With a thud, he had already boarded the big boat. The soldiers on the side of the boat were unstable and were all shocked.
Zhao Yun entered the cabin and saw Mrs. Sun hugging Adou in her arms with her hands, and asked Zhao Yun:
"Why is Zilong rude?"
When Zhao Yun heard Mrs. Sun's reproach, he was not timid. He inserted the Qinghong sword on the deck, clasped his fists and saluted:
"If the general is not given the order of the military advisor, come and ask where the mistress wants to go? Why don't the military advisor inform you?"
Sun Shangxiang replied with confidence:
"My mother is in danger of illness and has no time to report it."
Zhao Yun did not dare to be too rude to Sun Shangxiang, so he had to change the topic:
"My mistress went to Jiangdong to visit her. The journey was long and the wind and waves were high on the boat. Why did she take her little master with her?"
Mrs. Sun said angrily:
"A Dou is my son. He stayed in Jingzhou and no one looked at him. How could the mother leave her son alone? "
Zhao Yun retorted:
"My mistress is such a bad word. The master has only this little bit of bones and blood in his life. The young general was rescued from the millions of troops in Changbanpo, Dangyang, but today his wife wants to carry her to Jiangdong. What is the reason?"
When Mrs. Sun heard Zhao Yun's voice getting louder and louder, she couldn't help but say angrily:
"You are just a martial husband under my husband's tent. How dare you take care of my family affairs!"
After getting Kong Ming's instructions, Zhao Yun had to keep Adou, and could not retreat, so he replied with a tough bullet:
"I dare not stop my wife from returning to Jiangdong to visit her, but I dare not violate the order of the military advisor. I must leave my little master."
Mrs. Sun cursed: "You intercepted me on the boat halfway and forced me to commit an offense. Are you going to rebel?"
Zhao Yun was unmoved toward Mrs. Sun's exaggeration and insisted:
"If I don't leave my little master, even if I die, I will not dare to let my wife go."
Mrs. Sun ordered her female guard to pull her forward and try to drive Zhao Yun out of the cabin, but Zhao Yun pushed the female guard to the ground. Then Mrs. Sun snatched Adou from her hand and took it out of the bow of the boat.
Zhou Shan was on the ship, afraid that Sun Shangxiang and Adou would be injured by accident, so he did not fight with Zhao Yun. He just commanded the soldiers to row the boat and quickly headed towards Jiangdong.
When Zhao Yun captured Adou, Mrs. Sun also realized that it might be her brother Sun Quan who used him again, so she stopped talking and allowed Zhao Yun to take Adou away.
But Zhou Shan refused to stop the boat, Zhao Yun could not stand by the shore, the small fishing boat had been pulled down by the big boat several miles away, and there was no helper beside him. He wanted to kill the soldiers who were rowing boats, but he was afraid that due to reason, it would cause Jiangdong and Jingzhou to rebel, and he could not advance or retreat on the boat.
Zhou Shan knew that Adou was Sun Quan's bargaining chip for Jingzhou. When he saw that Sun Shangxiang had given up, he asked his soldiers to go for the battle. Zhao Yun held Adou with one hand and blocked it with the other hand, cutting off several weapons, and everyone did not dare to approach.
When Zhou Shan saw that he could not do anything to Zhao Yun, he turned to the back end and held the rudder, just to let the boat go down. The wind was smooth and the fleet was flowing away. Zhao Yun could not whistle, so he could only protect Adou, and he saw that the fleet was getting closer and closer to the Jiangdong territory.
