Wu County was the capital of the Sun regime in the Eastern Wu Dynasty, which is today's Suzhou City. It was built by Wu Xu, and the city lasted for 2,050 years until today in later generations.

On Lingyan Mountain outside the west city of Wuxian, an exquisite and elegant building complex was built, covering an area of ​​about acres, with jade pavilions and jade pavilions, which complement each other with the mountains and forests, and are extremely elegant.

This is the Li Palace of the Wu mother of Sun Quan. It was originally the Guanwa Palace built by Fuchai for the beautiful girl Xishi. It was later burned down by a fire. However, Wu liked the scenery here, so Sun Quan rebuilt the Li Palace on the basis of the original Guanwa Palace to live in for his mother.

Shortly after the New Year, Wu fell ill and asked famous doctors to delay treatment on many occasions, but no results were found. The disease became worse and worse. Several doctors said clearly that the old lady could not survive today's summer.

Sun Quan was not untied and served his mother day and night. As his mother's condition deepened, he felt particularly heavy.

A courtyard not far from Wu's ward was set up as Sun Quan's temporary home. This small courtyard, which covers less than acres, became a gathering place for the military affairs of the Eastern Wu regime. Every day, servants would come to report various letters from the city.

In the study on the second floor, Sun Quan was sitting behind several desks and writing quickly, stopping his pen from time to time and thinking deeply.

Sun Quan is twenty-one years old today, and is the youngest lord among all the separatist princes. He has purple beard and blue eyes, bright eyes, square chin and big mouth, and a strange appearance that is different from ordinary people.

When the imperial envoy Jia Xi Sunce, he asserted that although the Sun brothers were all talented and wise, they all had their fortunes and fortunes. However, they were only filial and honest, with a magnificent appearance, and were not constant in their bones and bodies, and were ashamed of great honor.

Sun Quan took over his brother Sun Ce's Jiye two years ago, and he was worried about internal and external troubles. Sun Fu had ambitions to seize the throne. His colleague Sun Fu wanted to seize Kuaiji and establish himself, and Li Shu, the guard of Lujiang, even publicly rebelled.

However, Sun Quan was pacified and safe from the inside and outside, suppressed the rebellion, and selected talents to appoint talents, pacified Shanyue, and opened up territory. Not only did he completely control the power of Jiangdong, but he also had sufficient soldiers and enough food to use his lives.

Last autumn, Cao Cao's army attacked Liu Bei in Runan, and Jingzhou was shocked. Liu Biao mobilized 100,000 troops to guard Xiangyang, resulting in insufficient troops in Jiangxia, which made Sun Quan have an idea in his mind.

At this moment, Jiangxia, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were dissatisfied with Huang Zu and wanted to claim to be a rebellion. They specially sent someone to send a letter to Jiangdong. Under Lu Su's persuasion, Sun Quan resolutely decided to send troops to Pengze to watch the situation.

If Liu Biao was unable to quell the Zhang Wu and Chen Sun's rebellion, he would take the opportunity to conquer Jiangxia. If Liu Biao's army arrived westward, the Jiangdong army would not move.

But Liu Biao ordered Liu Bei to lead his army to the west and quickly quell the Zhang Wu and Chen Sun rebellion, and did not give Jiangdong army any chance.

Just as Sun Quan was considering whether to increase his troops to Peng Ze and took Chaisang as the bridgehead to attack Jiangxia, his mother unfortunately fell ill, which forced Sun Quan to stop fighting and pray that his mother would recover from illness.

At this moment, footsteps came from the door, and then a crisp voice of a girl sounded, "Brother, can I come in?"

It was the voice of his sister Shangxiang. Sun Quan's father, Sun Jian, married the Wu sisters together. The eldest sister, Sun Quan's mother, gave birth to four, while the sister only gave birth to one daughter, named Sun Ren, whose courtesy name was Shangxiang.

Although they are half-brothers, the Sun brothers have treated her as a treasure since childhood and taken care of her as a treasure. She was called Princess Jiangdong by the people of the Eastern Wu.

Sun Quan also loved this sister. More than once he told his young generals that those who can marry my sister must be the greatest husband in Jiangdong.

However, last fall, the fourth brother Sun Kuang took Shang Xiang to Jiangxia with his uncle Wu Jing, and something almost happened. While Sun Quan blamed himself, he also severely punished Sun Kuang and his sister Shang Xiang and was jailed for two months.

"Come in"

Sun Quan's tone was very gentle. Shang Xiang's punishment period had passed, so he loved her even more, as if he wanted to make up for the shortcomings of these two months.

A slim figure entered the room. It was the princess Sun Shangxiang of Jiangdong. A trip last fall brought her unforgettable memories.

She also brought her severe punishment for two months of confinement, but even if her brother couldn't help but take a step forward, she wouldn't go out. The few blood marks on her face made her depressed and refused to go out to meet people.

She also hated Liu Jing in her heart. She later learned that the young officer who kidnapped her was actually Liu Biao's nephew. This surprised and annoyed her. She also promised to make him a tooth general, but she didn't know how he laughed at her at that time.

However, as the bloodstains on her face gradually disappeared and her beautiful face was restored, her annoyance towards Liu Jing slightly faded. After all, she was just a twelve-year-old girl. Although she was a little precocious, her essence was still innocent and could not tolerate much hatred in her heart.

The aunt was seriously ill in the past two months, and Sun Shangxiang cried many times. Although she was not her biological mother, the aunt loved her since she was a child. Every time she bullied her brother naughtyly, the aunt always favored her.

When Sun Shangxiang heard that the aunt had not been cured and had to prepare for her funeral, she felt even more sad and shed tears every night.

"Brother is looking for me?" Sun Shangxiang asked sadly with his head down.

Sun Quan shook his sister's hand and felt her hands were cold. When he saw her eyes crying like Tao'er, he felt pity in his heart and said with a forced smile: "You have been serving your mother these two days. You didn't seem to sleep last night. You are still young and weak. You should pay attention to rest. Don't stay up late tonight, we will serve your mother."

"Brother hasn't been asleep for two nights. He has to be busy with military and government affairs during the day, so you need to rest even more. I have nothing to do. If I am sleepy, just take a look. Brother, don't worry about me."

Sometimes Sun Quan was worried about his sister dancing swords all day long, but this time his mother was seriously ill and his sister showed the unique gentle and considerate side of a girl. He was relieved. After all, he was a girl and her gentle sex would never be lost.

Sometimes he also considered finding a husband who would be satisfied with his sister, but when he thought that she was just twelve years old, he suddenly burst into laughter. It was still early in the future. I don’t know who would be worthy of his sister.

At this time, Sun Quan unexpectedly found that there was a little bloodstain on his sister's neck, and he couldn't help frowning, "Shang Xiang, your neck..."

At that time, Liu Jing left four blood marks on Sun Shangxiang's face and neck, and now the rest have faded, but a little blood mark on her neck has left her, which makes her feel depressed.

Unexpectedly, she was caught by her brother. She was so scared that she hurriedly covered her neck, "It's nothing, it'll be fine in a few days."

Sun Shangxiang was afraid that her brother would be angry, so she would not allow her to go out from now on. Although she hated Liu Jing in her heart, she didn't want to make trouble at this time. She would rather bear this annoyance than her brother would mention that matter again.

Sun Quan's face turned gloomy. He didn't hate Liu Jing. Liu Jing even let them go even though he knew their siblings. This surprised Sun Quan, and even felt a little grateful.

He was angry about his brother and sister's adventure. When he thought of this, he would blame him a few words. Sun Quan complained again: "It's just a horse. If you hurt your life, how can I explain it to my mother?"

Sun Shangxiang pouted, shook her brother's arm and said coquettishly: "I understand. Last time it was just an accident. I promise not to make the same mistake again. Brother, don't mention this matter again."

Sun Quan had no choice but to sigh and said, "Forget it, let's talk about this later. You go and accompany your mother first. I still have official duties."

Seeing that his brother no longer cared about this matter, Sun Shangxiang became happy again and slipped out like a bird. Looking at her sister's cute back, Sun Quan smiled and shook his head. When will this baby sister really grow up?

Sun Quan took back his thoughts and asked the guard next to him, "What's wrong?"

"Report to the Marquis of Wu, Zhou Guardians asked for a visit"

Sun Quan was overjoyed. He was about to send someone to find Zhou Yu, but he didn't expect that he would come by himself. "Please invite him in."

Soon, Zhou Yu walked in with a majestic spirit. Zhou Yu was only 28 years old this year. He was handsome and heroic, and was particularly good at music. He was famous in Jiangdong. Therefore, there were songs and mistakes among the people. Zhou Langgu said that, so the people in Jiangdong also liked to call him Zhou Lang.

In order to value Zhou Yu, Sun Quan also appointed Zhou Yu as the Central Guardian Army after he inherited his position as his elder brother, and was in charge of the military affairs of Jiangdong with the Chief Secretary Zhang Zhao.

Zhou Yu walked into the room, knelt down and bowed to Sun Quan, "Zhou Yu pays homage to the Marquis of Wu."

"You don't have to be too polite, please sit down."

Zhou Yu sat down, and a guard served tea. Sun Quan took a court edict from the table and said, "A few days ago, I received the imperial edict from the court, asking the Sun family in Jiangdong to send his legitimate to Xudu as a magistrate. I am very embarrassed about this matter. If I do not accept the edict, I will be called a ruthless minister. If I send my brothers to Xudu by the edict, I may be subject to the control of others."

Zhou Yu smiled coldly, "What kind of edict is this? It is clearly what Cao thief means. Two years ago, didn't Cao thief also order Liu Biao to conquer him, but Liu Biao clearly rejected him. He didn't see anyone talking about Liu Biao being a rebel minister, and being fair and free in the hearts of the people. Why should the Marquis of Wu obey Cao's orders?"

Sun Quan nodded, being fair and free, this sentence was very good. In fact, Sun Quan didn't want to send his brother to Xu Du as a hostage, but he was not sure about making up his mind. Zhou Yu's persuasion made him make up his mind.

"The ministers are undecided, which has made me hesitate until now. Gong Jing is determined and I know what to do."

Zhou Yu smiled again and said, "Actually, I came here to discuss the march to Jiangxia with the Marquis of Wu. Cao Cao was focused on pacifying Hebei and had no time to look south. Yangzhou Governor Liu Fu trained troops in Huainan. According to Gu Hui's investigation of the enemy situation, Liu Fu devoted himself to defense and went south. It can be seen that the focus of Cao's army is in Hebei.

Xiahou Dun stationed tens of thousands of troops in Nanyang, threatening Jingxiang, and restraining Liu Biao's main force. Jiangxia only has 25,000 troops of Huang Zu. Why don't we take this opportunity to seize Jiangxia?

Sun Quan sighed, "I don't want to do it, but my mother is seriously ill. I dare not act rashly, for fear of leaving behind the name of unfilial piety."

Zhou Yu lowered his voice and said, "I asked the sorcerer to observe the celestial phenomena at night. Although the wife was seriously ill, there was no sign of falling in the main star. Moreover, I heard that Hua Tuo was accepting disciples in Guangling and ordered someone to invite him. It is coming soon. Perhaps the wife's illness can be cured, but the fighter's opportunity is fleeting. If Wu Hou should break it, it will be cut off."

Sun Quan pondered for a long time and said, "My mother's disease needs to be treated, and the fighter's opportunity must be grasped. Why not do this? Please ask Hua Tuo to treat it first. If you can stabilize your mother's condition, regardless of whether it is cured, we will first capture Chaisang and leave a foothold for the attack on Jiangxia. What do you think?"
