Chapter 38
At night, the candles in many places in the mansion have been extinguished, and it is quiet everywhere, only a dozen or so guards on duty in the mansion are still standing inside the gate, patrolling back and forth cautiously.
In Qinghe Hall, the candles are still bright.
Yuan Langlang walked in slowly, "Master Hou!"
Sun Ce said "Yes", "Thank you for your hard work, and you are still taking care of me back and forth while pregnant."
"Second Madam has always treated concubines leniently, and what happened now can only repay one or two, which is not considered hard work."
Sun Ce was very satisfied with Yuan Langlang's sensibility and consideration, "How about my sister-in-law?"
"Second Madam was a little confused at the beginning, but she got better later. She said that Lord Hou must be trying to rescue the second son at this time, and she can't add trouble at this time. Let my concubine come and talk to Lord Hou to rest assured."
Sun Ce nodded, "I'm relieved that she is so sensible. She handles Li Shu's affairs very well, and she is the one who can take charge. It's just that you have to serve her more recently."
You Ye has already told him the cause and effect of the matter, and he has more plans in his mind, but now that the battle is still going on, he can't take care of Li Shu, so let him stay in this position for now.
He looked at Yuan Langlang's slightly protruding belly expectantly, "With a biological mother like you, if he is a man, he must be a good son of my grandson's family."
There was a faint smile on Yuan Langlang's face, "I am satisfied to gain the trust of Lord Hou. I will definitely raise the child in my womb well and live up to Master Hou's expectations."
Sun Ce is already in his twenties, and has two daughters under his knees, but he has not had an heir so far. This is indeed a heart problem for him.Among his several wives and concubines, only Yuan's family is decent, and his temperament and conduct are also good. If his heir can be born from Yuan's family.
Sun Ce left for Xunyang early the next morning, but Sun Quan's whereabouts were unknown, so he was really anxious, but he was worried that things in Wancheng would change, so he came back to inform Qiao himself.
But Qiao Wei was waiting at the door early, "I have something to say, I want to ask Lord Hou whether Huang Zu is related to the kidnapping of Zhongmou by the Jinfan bandits."
Sun Ce was taken aback, "Why did you say that?"
"It's just a feeling. I once heard Zhongmou mention Gan Xingba. Zhongmou and Youping fought against him before, and they just repelled them. I heard that the Jinfan thief didn't attack him again for a long time, but Lord Hou, you When sending troops to intimidate Huang Zu, Gan Xingba suddenly strikes again, I have to think a little more."
Sun Ce nodded, "A few years ago, the Jinfan bandit defected to Liu Biao, and then to Huang Zu's command. In recent years, he has returned to his old business, always causing trouble on the river. This time..."
There was inevitably a bit of worry in his eyes, he was afraid that Sun Quan was not in Gan Ning's hands, but Huang Zu's.
Huang Zu dared to kill Sun Jian back then, but now he has nothing to worry about killing another Sun Quan.
Thinking of this, the murderous intent in Sun Ce's eyes was even worse. If Huang Zu dared to kill his Sun family again, he would definitely come out and trample Jiangxia down. Only by cutting Huang Zu into pieces can he vent his hatred.
Qiao Wei said, "In this case, Zhongmou should still be in the hands of Gan Xingba."
"Why do you dare to be so sure?"
"Gan Xingba is rebellious and rebellious, but Huang Zu has no virtue of subduing others. How can he use someone who can't even be used by Liu Biao. Gan Xingba's troubles in the Jianghuai area must be Huang Zu indulged.
I heard that Gan Xingba also robbed Huang Zu's grain ship, Huang Zu pursued him afterwards, but Gan Xingba just apologized hastily, and afterwards he still went his own way.The two must have been at odds, and Gan Xingba will definitely not hand over Zhongmou to Huang Zu.
Second, if Zhongmou was killed or kidnapped by Huang Zu, there should be some explanation, whether he wanted to suppress the morale of Sun's army or exchange territory to force Sun's army to retreat, but now there is no news, it is really wrong. "
Then Sun Quan could only still be in Gan Ning's hands. Gan Ning robbed Sun Quan not for war, but for personal enmity.
Sun Ce originally thought that Qiao Wei's words were just self-comforting, but he didn't think what she said was quite reasonable.
"You're right. Gong Jin searched the river for many days but couldn't find him. This man is cunning and elusive."
"I heard Zhong Mou say something. Gan Xingba seems to recognize Zhou Youping and General Zhou. Although he doesn't know the origin of the two, Gan Xingba doesn't seem to want to hurt General Zhou. Maybe Gan Xingba really dare not think about it. The person we are looking for is not Zhongmou, but General Zhou."
Sun Ce suddenly thought of something, and couldn't wait for a moment, got on his horse and galloped away with his entourage.
-
Qiao Wei's guess was also correct. Although Gan Ning was moody, he would never do anything to Zhou Tai, the person who had saved his life.He once thought about taking Zhou Tai away alone, but Zhou Tai always followed Sun Quan, almost inseparable.
He couldn't find a chance to take Zhou Tai away, so he simply took Sun Quan and his party away.
During the few days when he was taken away, Zhou Tai kept thinking about what kind of enmity he and Gan Ning had, whether it was some kind of deep hatred forged in the riots on the river back then.
But back then, he had killed so many people that he really couldn't remember which group Gan Ning belonged to.
"It seems that you still don't remember it." Gan Ning came to see Zhou Tai with the meal in person, "After the meal, I will take you to see a place."
Zhou Tai did not doubt that he was there, if Gan Ning wanted his life, he would have done it long ago.
He was also a water thief back then, Gan Ning was the first to notice something was wrong with this method of leading people to sneak underwater, but it was too late to turn around and return.
Gan Ning came prepared, he drilled a hole in the bottom of the boat, pulled Zhou Tai and others into the water to make them unconscious, and then left quickly under the cover of the fishing boat.
This set of procedures was originally invented by Zhou Tai when he was a thief on the river, but in the end he was still in the hands of Gan Ning who also used this method.
It's really the reincarnation of heaven, and the main thing is a shame.
Gan Ning did not break his promise, Zhou Tai put the empty bowl on the table, Gan Ning led him out of the cabin and stood on the deck.
At a glance, the surface of the river is as calm as a mirror, and the mist is rising. The two sides of the river are full of overlapping mountains, as if there is no end in sight.
But Zhou Tai still recognized this place at a glance. He had set up ambushes on both banks of this place, and robbed passing ships of wealth.Even with his eyes closed, he would know where and when he should choose to do something if he wanted to.
Not far away, there is a small fishing boat. There are several men casting nets on the boat, and a half-grown child is following behind.
It's just that the child is very thin, and the exposed arms and legs are covered with many wounds, most of which are old, but there are also new wounds.
The child accidentally lost his foothold and almost tore the net in his hand, and a man directly beat and scolded him.
Zhou Tai couldn't bear it very much, he was about to speak to stop him, but he heard Gan Ning's voice, "So, do you remember?"
I received a notice from the editor, saying that I have not tested the waters, please allow me to emo for a while
