The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 600 599 The Burning Yangtze River (39)

Sun Quan fully agreed to Xiang Lang's proposal, not only to send all the family members of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei to Zhang Fei, but also to send Peng Tuo to escort several carts of grain, grass, ordnance, money, etc. Capture items from Yizhou.

Before leaving, Sun Quan specifically asked Peng Tuo to monitor Zhang Fei, and to report to him immediately if there was any disturbance.

However, Sun Quan didn't know that Peng Tuo had already turned his heart to Zhang Fei, and that Sun Quan's series of arrangements fell into Fazheng's hands.

Most of what Xiang Lang said in front of Sun Quan was taught by Fazheng, and this strategy was also given to Xiang Lang by Fazheng, so the success of this trip was mostly due to Fazheng.

After Xiang Lang came out of Sun Quan's residence, he immediately contacted Chen Dao, and told Chen Dao the good news. After hearing this, Chen Dao was also very happy, so he and Xiang Lang entered Liu Bei, Guan Yu's house in a legitimate way. The mansion where the family members of Zhang Fei and Zhang Fei lived, took all the family members of these three families away in an upright manner, plus the people who delivered supplies led by Peng Tuo, there were more than 200 people in total, hired a big boat, and all of them were dressed as merchants. He quickly left Nanchang and rushed towards Yuanling where Zhang Fei was.

Xiang Lang, Chen Dao, Peng Tuo and others escorted the family members of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei all the way out of Nanchang. After leaving Nanchang for less than three days, Lu Fan returned from Chaisang and reported the current situation to Sun Quan. When chatting, Lu Fan accidentally mentioned this matter, and Lu Fan was suddenly surprised.

"My lord, you are so confused. That Zhang Fei is the most powerful general in the world. It's fine if you let him go alone. Why do you let him go with his family?" Under any entanglement, if he really captured Yizhou and became the lord of Yizhou, would he still bow his head to the lord? Moreover, the lord actually gave him money, food, and armaments. Isn't this tantamount to funding him? " Lu Fan said angrily.

Lu Fan is Sun Ce's good friend, and his relationship with Sun Quan is also extraordinary. Even Zhou Yu would not dare to talk to Sun Quan like this, but Lu Fan can, because he and Sun Quan have known each other for a long time. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu used to go out together. During the war, Sun Ce always entrusted his family to Lu Fan to take care of. Lu Fan was like a big brother, taking care of Sun Quan, the younger brother. Although they were not brothers, they were closer than brothers.

In addition, Lu Fan also taught Sun Quan many principles of life and made him understand many things. To Sun Quan, Lu Fan is an elder brother, a teacher, and even a family member.That's why Sun Quan and Lu Fan treated each other so frankly. Even if Lu Fan said something that went too far, it wouldn't cause any serious problems, and Sun Quan wouldn't take it to heart.

Lu Fan's blatant words made Sun Quan feel ashamed, with a trace of nervousness on his face, he asked hastily, "Then...then what should we do?"

"How long have they been gone?" Lu Fan asked.

"Three days." Sun Quan said.

Lu Fan said: "From here to Yuanling, we have to pass Jingzhou on the way. Jingzhou is already under the jurisdiction of Zhang Yan, and the guards are strict. They dragged their families with them. They must not be far away. Why don't you send out an elite army to go after them now? ,You still have time."

Sun Quan said: "Okay! I'll send someone to chase after him..."

"Don't chase!" Suddenly, a gray voice came from outside the door, but Mrs. Wu appeared at the door, and with the support of a young and beautiful woman, she stepped into the hall. Besides, Mrs. Wu Behind Madam, Sun Kuang and others followed.

"Mother, you didn't rest in your room, why did you come here?" After seeing Mrs. Wu, Sun Quan immediately went up to meet Mrs. Wu. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the woman supporting Mrs. Wu, obviously resentful.

That woman is none other than Sun Quan's wife, Mrs. Peng, the daughter of Peng Hu, the great chief of Shanshan.

Sun Quan's marriage to Mrs. Peng was just a political marriage requirement, but Mrs. Peng was very beautiful. At first, Sun Quan liked her very much, but as time went by, over time, the friction between the two It also broke out continuously.Mrs. Peng is from Shanyue. She grew up in Shanyue, so she has a bold, cheerful and lively personality. In addition, she is also proficient in martial arts, and it is common to dance with spears and sticks.

However, Sun Quan likes the kind of small and exquisite women who are attached to him, rely on him, and worship him.However, Mrs. Peng is the kind of stronger woman who is unwilling to admit defeat when encountering any situation, and often makes Sun Quan unable to get off the table.

In addition, there is a big difference between the two people in terms of living habits and customs. After all, Sun Quan is a Han Chinese and cannot stand the Shanyue people. Mrs. Peng often shows her face and goes out hunting, which makes Sun Quan I feel very indecent.

Over time, Sun Quan became disgusted with him, and the two often quarreled, and sometimes even fought violently.

However, every time a war broke out between husband and wife, Sun Quan was willing to bow down. Mrs. Peng likes to use double swords, and her martial arts skills are excellent, far more powerful than Sun Quan.Therefore, after several confrontations, Sun Quan didn't dare to provoke this woman again, and simply stayed in the mansion instead of going back to his mansion, and kept Mrs. Peng at a respectful distance.

However, Sun Quan is a man after all and has physical needs, so in order to solve this need, Sun Quan had to find another new love, fell in love with a maidservant, and would sleep with this maidservant every night.

When Mrs. Peng found out about this, she was furious. She carried a pair of knives and broke into the government office. She even chopped the maidservant to death on Sun Quan's bed. It's not a gentle town, but a bloody and cold corpse.

From then on, Sun Quan held a grudge against Madam Peng, and never saw Madam Peng again.

These are family scandals, only a very few people know, and the outside world has no way of knowing, but since then, Sun Quan has also restrained a lot, and Sun Ce also died at this time, he inherited Sun Ce's position, so he put all his thoughts on it. It has been used to deal with political affairs, and gradually has the attitude of striving for strength.

However, when he saw Mrs. Peng again today, Sun Quan would think of all kinds of things before, and he still held a grudge against her.

Mrs. Wu has a unique vision. Naturally, her son's every move cannot be hidden from Mrs. Wu. Seeing a trace of resentment in Sun Quan's eyes, she said to Sun Quan: "You don't have to think too much, I asked her to come with me. After all, you are also husband and wife, but you haven't seen each other for a year, but you hate each other when you meet, is there such a couple in the world?"

"Mother, I..." Sun Quan said hastily.

"Stop talking. If you want to blame, you can blame your mother. After all, I asked you to marry her back then. If you have any grievances, vent all your grievances to your mother!" Mrs. Wu said.

Back then, when Sun Ce established the Ding Jiangdong, his foundation was not too solid. In addition, he fought with Shanyue repeatedly. Basically, there would be dozens of battles every month, and many people would die in each battle.Later, Zhou Yu proposed a strategy to Sun Ce. First, he had a truce with Shanyue, and then he got in touch with some Shanyue tribes to form allies. In order to stabilize the relationship between the alliance, Sun Ce married the Shanyue tribe. Later, he let his younger brothers marry the daughters of the chiefs of the Shanyue tribe, and Sun Quan was one of them.

At that time, Sun Quan was unwilling, but Mrs. Wu forced Sun Quan to marry, so Sun Quan's marriage was more or less arranged.

"Mother, how dare the child hate mother?" Sun Quan said.

Mrs. Wu said: "Since this is the case, then you can't resent your wife. After all, he is still your wife, and when you married her, you were very happy? Why is it like seeing an enemy now? Just For a maid, is it worth it?"

Sun Quan didn't answer, and didn't make a sound, just stood there silently, listening to his mother's words quietly.

Mrs. Wu saw Sun Quan's appearance like this, so she stopped her voice, changed her voice, and said immediately: "Okay, let him get over the past. Besides, I am not here this time to reconcile the relationship between your husband and wife. Just now, I heard you said that you were going to send people to chase after Zhang Fei and his family members, right?"

"My child fell into the trap of Xiang Lang and was deceived. Fortunately, Lu Ziheng came back and woke up the dreamer, so I knew that I was deceived, so I thought..." Sun Quan said.

Mrs. Wu directly interrupted Sun Quan's words, and said: "I am the one who asked you to do this. Even if you were really deceived, it doesn't matter if it's fake, in any case, you are not allowed to send anyone to chase them!"

Sun Quan hurriedly asked: "Why? That Zhang Fei is a fierce general in the world, what if..."

"What if? Is it possible? Do you really believe that Zhang Fei can capture Yizhou with a mere few hundred remnants? Besides, you shouldn't have accepted Zhang Fei and the others back then, so that you Many veterans of my Jiangdong have negative remarks. Don’t you know that you favor one another than another? Moreover, I remember that I told you very clearly that day, what is the reason why our Sun family has what it is today? It is not Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, but the officials who are now working hard in various places, our Sun family officials. If you chase Zhang Fei back, what do you plan to do? Kill him or reuse him? Killing him will damage your reputation. If you reuse him, How do you plan to arrange the veterans?" Mrs. Wu said sternly.

Seeing that Sun Quan was speechless, Lu Fan hurriedly said, "Madam Tai, my lord, he just..."

Before Lu Fan finished speaking, Mrs. Wu interrupted him directly, and said loudly: "Ziheng! You have always been resourceful, and you are my Sun family's confidant, don't you understand what I mean by doing this? "

Lu Fan said: "Zi Heng is very clear about Mrs. Tai's intentions, but..."

"It's nothing to worry about. The matter is already like this, so don't make any more trouble. If you have that leisure, you might as well think about how to deal with the upcoming threat. I heard that King Yan Zhang Yan has assembled hundreds of thousands of troops, and he has been watching The reason why he coveted Jiangdong for so long was because he was jealous of the navy led by Gongjin. Once there was any trouble in Jiangdong, Zhang Yan's army would be overwhelmed, and Zhang Fei would be left to fend for himself. Now it should be Put all your thoughts on how to deal with Zhang Yan's war." Mrs. Wu said.

Both Sun Quan and Lu Fan lowered their heads, stopped talking, and gave up their intention of chasing Zhang Fei.Mrs. Wu saw that her goal had been achieved, she chatted with Sun Quan for a while, and then left.

After leaving the hall, Mrs. Peng whispered in Mrs. Wu's ear: "Mother, it's thanks to you this time..."

Mrs. Wu said: "It's a troubled time now, and you, Mrs. Peng, have to trouble Zhang Fei."

Mrs. Peng said: "Mum, don't worry, I have made arrangements for Peng Tuo to wait for the opportunity to assassinate Zhang Fei."

"That's good! I have wronged you about the matter between you and Zhongmou. After this period of crisis, I will persuade Zhongmou well." Madam Wu said.

Mrs. Peng nodded, and didn't say anything else, but she was thinking to herself: "If Peng Tuo hadn't told me the news in time, I'm afraid I'll be alone here for the rest of my life."

It turned out that in addition to arranging Xiang Lang, Fazheng also arranged for Peng Tuo. He asked Peng Tuo to go to Mrs. Peng and told Mrs. Peng that it was actually Sun Quan's idea for Zhang Fei to fight Yizhou, because Sun Quan had heard that the beautiful woman in Yizhou More, let Zhang Fei go to Yizhou to pick some beauties back.

Mrs. Peng became jealous, and immediately went to Mrs. Wu, and cried in front of Mrs. Wu, and Mrs. Wu also believed it. It happened that Sun Quan came to ask him about Zhang Fei and whether he wanted to attack Yizhou. Mrs. Wu politely said Tell Sun Quan to let Zhang Fei fend for himself.

Sun Quan has been kept in the dark about the whole matter, after all, with his mother on top of him, he dare not disobey.

Therefore, Sun Quan and Lu Fan did not dare to disobey Mrs. Wu's order, so they simply put all their thoughts on how to deal with the coming war in the future.
