No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

In the Wu Palace, Ou Mengmeng also knew that Zhuge Liang had entered Nanxu City, and she couldn't help but smile. She absolutely believed that she had only come up with the first plan, and Zhou Yu and his men would be able to pile up their plans and throw them at Mr. Kong Ming. They would really want to smash him to death. I'm afraid that Jingzhou has been surrounded by water and before they finish talking, Jingzhou will be surnamed Sun.

"Why are you laughing, mother?" Sun Shangxiang saw that her mother, who rarely came out to bask in the sun, actually laughed when she heard the news outside. Although she also wanted her mother to be happy, she did not dare to make her sad.

"I'm laughing. Zhuge Liang has never met a wise leader." Ou Mengmeng still sighed softly. So who said that was right. It took ten years for a scholar to rebel. Zhuge Liang was still a scholar. In fact, he was cruel and ruthless. He was really not as good as these killers.

"Hasn't it always been said that Uncle Liu is a man of both talent and virtue, and is deeply loved?" Sun Shangxiang asked casually. She didn't really care about these people, she just wanted to chat with her mother.

"This person, let alone being inferior to your eldest brother, is definitely not as good as your second brother." Ou Mengmeng shook her head. She couldn't remember who had talked about the three leaders of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan. How should we describe these three people? They represent the heroes of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Cao Cao was really a treacherous hero, but time did not wait for him. He experienced Dong Zhuo, foreign invasions, and warlord separatism. In fact, his life was just patching up. Whether he held the emperor hostage to control the princes was actually not important, because if he was not there, there were others. At that time, Emperor Xian was like a son of gold holding a busy city, and whoever robbed was robbed.

Again, from the Huang Chao uprising to the unification of the country by the Jin Dynasty, to be honest, in this period of nearly a hundred years of history, there were no good people worth mentioning. So, at least Cao Cao still played a certain positive role in history.

What can I say about Liu Bei? The hero of this book has the background of Liu Xiu, but not his fate. Moreover, he is not the kind of person who really cares about the world. Before he met Zhuge Liang, he was like a lost dog, taking his brothers to eat at this restaurant today and that restaurant tomorrow. How can I say it, do people really give him face? Not really. In fact, everyone is waiting for an opportunity, and his last name happens to be Liu. They will kill him and push his son onto the self-made dragon throne. They are also the king's army, and they can also fight against the treacherous prime minister and the false emperor!

When he met Zhuge Liang, he finally looked like a leading actor. He had a territory, but he was always wavering between politics and friendship. Just like the matter of Jingzhou this time, although Zhuge Liang was given full authority, he did not restrain Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. It is estimated that deep in his heart, he did not trust Zhuge Liang that much. He did not care whether Jingzhou was lost or not, but the soldiers and horses they had with great difficulty could not be coaxed away by Zhuge Liang. This is a problem of overall view! Liu Bei did not have the qualities of a mature politician.

Sun Quan is actually the future, why did he persist the longest in the Three Kingdoms? Because he is the youngest now, he outlasted Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and he faced Cao Pi and Liu Chan in his mature period. Cao Pi was okay at palace fighting, but he was not a little bit inferior to Cao Cao in terms of war. In addition, he was the first to proclaim himself emperor, and legally, he became the target of public criticism and lost his heart. Although behind Liu Chan was the mature Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang was surrounded by the old man Liu Bei, so how could he accumulate prestige and concentrate power like Sun Quan in his prime?
Again, why do history teachers make you memorize years? Why do you think they do this? They want to tell students that time points are really good things!

Sun Shangxiang had no idea that her mother's thoughts were so far away. Upon hearing this, she also burst out laughing, "Mother, you are my son, so you are good no matter how you look at it. My aunt said at the beginning that heroes are emerging in the world, and it is the time for good men to strive for fame before and after their death."

"So your aunt is a man of great talent and strategy, but I am not. I am just a spectator. I dare not look down on anyone, but I like to watch the fun." Ou Mengmeng shook her head and thought about it. "Also, actually, I don't like troubled times. Look at the best history of the Warring States Period, the Four Gentlemen of the Warring States Period, the Heshi Bi, and the bearder of a thorn tree to ask for forgiveness. Which one of them is not thought-provoking and makes people's blood boil. But have you ever thought about the common people? In fact, they would rather not have those amazing smart people, just one, just a slightly smart one, to unify the six countries and let the common people recuperate. They don't ask for much, just don't fight each other." "Mother is really kind-hearted." Sun Shangxiang also sighed faintly. When she was young, she moved several times with her mother and aunt. They were fine and their lives were stable. And she was not the kind of girl who was raised in the boudoir. She knew that in places she couldn't see, there were stories that people dared not think deeply about.

"Fake compassion!" Ou Mengmeng shook her head. She didn't dare to accept compassion. Bodhidharma crossing the river with a reed and Vajra subduing the devil were true compassion. But she was just sitting comfortably in the warm room, drinking precious tea with her daughter and talking about the world situation. What kind of compassion was that?
"Mother." Sun Shangxiang didn't like to hear this, so she gently stopped him and returned to the previous topic, "Let's talk about Zhuge Liang and Emperor Liu. Do you think Mr. Kong Ming shouldn't have come, or do you think Emperor Liu didn't employ the right people?"

"You said, when your father and brother went out to fight, they left the affairs of state to your aunt. At that time, would your aunt easily leave Wu County?"

"Of course not. At that time, my aunt still has to protect us!" Sun Shangxiang said hurriedly.

She knew how to answer this question. Just like that day, when her mother talked about how they, the little ones, could no longer remember what their father looked like, she thought about it carefully and felt sad. As long as she could remember, her mother and aunt had taken care of them. Her father really didn't even leave a trace of his back.

The ones who protected them were their aunt and eldest brother. However, their aunt and eldest brother were always busy, especially after their father passed away. The eldest brother went out to fight, while their aunt stayed in their hometown to consolidate the power of the Sun family and deal with all parties. That was the stable rear base for their father and brother. She knew very well that protecting them from harm was an important part of allowing their father and brother to fight with peace of mind.

"Not only that, your aunt was the backer of your father and brother at that time. She was protecting the house for them. If I didn't trust your aunt and made trouble for her at that time, what would she do? What would your father and brother do?" Ou Mengmeng shook her head again.

"How could you?" Sun Shangxiang shook her head firmly. Her mother was the most obedient person. She would strictly follow whatever her aunt said. If her aunt was the rear support for Sun Jian and his son, then her mother was the rear support for her aunt.

"The best thing about Dongwu is this. We are fighting internally, but when something happens, we are united against the outside world. But Liu Bei is a person who doesn't know the importance of things. He clearly asked Zhuge Liang to guard the house, but he left Guan Yu and Zhang Fei behind. Zhuge Liang is young and has just followed Liu Bei. The Battle of Red Cliffs alone cannot completely consolidate his position in Liu Bei's army. Do you think Liu Bei's words about letting the military advisor take charge of the overall situation are just polite words?" Ou Mengmeng smiled and nodded. (End of this chapter)
