Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 208
No one was caught alive.

Dozens of personal guards also returned to the place where Sun Ce died.

Standing beside Sun Ce's body, Huang Gai didn't know what it was like. If he could have arrived one step earlier, he would definitely be able to save Sun Ce. If he hadn't promised Sun Ce to go hunting today, such a thing would not have happened.

It's a pity that there is no pity, and there is no regret, everything has already happened.

Looking at the big deer that was shot not far away, and the corpses of the five assassins brought back by dozens of guards, I felt that hatred in my heart.

Now that Sun Ce is assassinated to death, it will definitely cause a lot of confusion, at least not something he can handle, and such things cannot be concealed at all.

"Xu Mansion!" Huang Gai gritted his teeth and said.

Holding the token picked up on the ground tightly in his hand, veins were showing on the back of his hand.

Dozens of personal guards didn't dare to say anything, and all lowered their heads. Even if Sun Ce was assassinated, even they knew that something serious had happened, and they would also be charged with ineffective protection of the lord.

"Go back to Jianye City!"

After speaking, Huang Gai picked up Sun Ce's body, put it on the horse's back, got on the horse, and headed down the west mountain, rushing back to Jianye City.

Dozens of personal guards did not hesitate, they separated out several people to bring the corpses of the five assassins, mounted their horses one after another, followed Huang Gai, and rushed back to Jianye City.

Jiangdong is about to change!

Huang Gai did not directly take Sun Ce's body into the city, but got a carriage and put Sun Ce's body in the carriage before entering Jianye City.

Although it can only be hidden from the people for a while, it may be as long as possible.

He also made a lot of preparations. When he got down from the west mountain, he asked a bodyguard to quickly report to Zhou Yu who was rushing back from Shouchun, and let him hurry back to Jianye.

Entering Jianye City, on the way to the Sun Mansion, some personal guards were also sent to inform Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, Zhuge Jin and other officials to meet at the Sun Mansion. After all, Sun Ce's death, he alone could not control the situation , at least to stabilize the situation in Jianye City.

soon.

Huang Gai then guarded Sun Ce's body and entered the Sun Residence.

Mrs. Wu knew that Sun Ce was assassinated and died, so she passed out directly.

He went to invite the personal guards of the officials, and quickly brought the officials to the Sun residence.

Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, Zhuge Jin and others, when they saw the guards with wrong expressions, they felt that something big had happened, but they never thought that Sun Ce was assassinated and died.

As the lord of Jiangdong, Sun Ce went hunting and was killed. If they hadn't seen Sun Ce's dead body lying on the bed without any blood color and eyes tightly closed, they would have thought Huang Gai was joking with them.

But the reality can't help them not to believe it.

"Who the hell murdered my son?"

While Huang Gai was discussing with Zhang Zhao and the others, a shout of sadness and anger came in.

Everyone looks.

I saw a young man with big mouth, blue eyes and purple beard, walked in with the help of an old lady, and there were several maids behind him.

"Greetings to Mrs. Wu, Second Young Master!" Everyone bowed their hands.

It was Sun Ce's mother, Madam Wu, and Sun Ce's younger brother Sun Quan and Sun Zhongmou who came in.

Mrs. Wu, after hearing the news of Sun Ce's death, fainted and was rescued, she rushed over with Sun Quan.

Seeing the lifeless Sun Ce on the bed, Mrs. Wu was trembling all over. Supported by Sun Quan, she walked to the side of the bed, sat down, stroked Sun Ce's bloodless face, and cried, "My son!"

Sun Quan also knelt down beside the bed and shed tears.

Zhang Zhao also stood up, repeated the cause and effect that Huang Gai said, and continued: "Madam Wu and the second son are also asked to express their condolences. Now that the lord has passed away unfortunately, Jiangdong cannot be left without a master for a day!"

"I'll wait for the second!" Huang Gai and other officials also cupped their hands.

Mrs. Wu also came from a big family, knowing the current situation is just like Zhang Zhao said, Sun Ce's revenge must be avenged, but Jiangdong can't be messed up, so she held back her sadness and looked at Zhang Zhao.

"Mrs. Wu, now we should support the second son as the master, hold the funeral and manage the military and state affairs at the same time, so that Jiangdong will not be chaotic!" Zhang Zhao analyzed.

"Zhongmou is young, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it, so what should we do?" Mrs. Wu said with a sob.

Sun Quan also nodded at the side.

"When the lord was still around, he often praised the second son, and the second son is the younger brother of the lord, and his name is right and proper. When Gongjin comes back, with Gongjin in control of the overall situation, he will be able to quickly take over Jiangdong's affairs. I would like to serve the second son as the master!" Zhang Zhao bowed on his knees.

"I am willing to serve the Second Young Master as my master!"

Huang Gai and other officials also knelt down to Sun Quan, obviously agreeing with Zhang Zhao's method, and they could only do so now.

Otherwise, once there is chaos, it will be a troublesome thing. Only in this way can the overall situation be quickly stabilized. Coupled with Zhou Yu's reputation in the Jiangdong Army, there will be no chaos.

"In this way, Zhongmou asks everyone to help you as much as possible!" Mrs. Wu said.

"I'll wait until I die!" Zhang Zhao and others said.

At last.

Sun Quan was invited out of the middle hall by the crowd, and the civil and military officials bowed down to take over the position of the Lord of Jiangdong.

Zhang Zhao also appointed Sun Jing to handle the funeral.

A white cloth was also hung in the Sun residence.

Seeing that the Sun Mansion hung up the white cloth, the people in the city also knew that something big had happened. After all, it was the Sun Mansion who controlled Jiangdong now, and it was not an ordinary thing for the Sun Mansion to hang up the white cloth.

From time to time
There was an announcement that Sun Ce was assassinated and died, and Sun Ce's younger brother Sun Quan would inherit the position of Lord of Jiangdong.

There was an uproar in the city, Sun Ce's death, how can it be a trivial matter, it is related to many things.

However, there was no chaos in Jianye City. After all, the capable ministers in Jianye City, such as Zhang Zhao, Huang Gai, Lu Su, etc., were those who supported the new lord, and they were all on Sun Quan's side. Officials have other thoughts and dare not reveal them.

The news of Sun Ce's death spread, and some officials in other cities in Jiangdongzhong refused to accept the young Sun Quan as the new lord. However, after Zhou Yu heard the news, he rushed to Jianye City that night and publicly stated that he would support Sun Quan as the new lord.

Some voices of dissatisfaction were also withdrawn.

Zhou Yu's reputation in the Jiangdong army can be said to be higher than that of Sun Ce. If he takes advantage of this time to seek the position of the Lord of Jiangdong, no one can stop him.

But Zhou Yu didn't have that idea, but supported Sun Quan, and discussed many ways with Zhang Zhao and others to suppress dissatisfied people in Jiangdong and stabilize Sun Quan's name of inheriting Sun Ce's position.

Zhou Yu also felt very sad about Sun Ce's assassination and death. You must know that his relationship with Sun Ce is a monarch and a minister, but they are also brothers. When Dang, Cheng Pu and others dealt with it, they rushed back.

But he didn't expect to hear the news of Sun Ce's assassination while he was still on the road. After hearing the story, he also felt that it was the remnants of the Xu family who did it, and he didn't suspect that others had intensified their efforts to hunt down the remnants of the Xu family.
