The weather is getting warmer, and the Shangsi Festival in March is coming. The nobles in Jingkou organized a grand gathering on this Shangsi Festival.In Jiangdong, the Shangsi Festival is an important festival. Everyone has to go to the water to bathe and change clothes to celebrate the arrival of spring.Aristocrats often choose this season to go out for outings, reciting poems and composing odes. Even ladies who have not been out of the boudoir for a long time can take this rare opportunity to take a look at the young man and handsome man.

In the past two years, I was always running around, and because of the war, I never had a good festival. This is a rare opportunity. I found out that there was already a custom of Qushui Liushang at this time, and I excitedly waited for the arrival of the Shangsi Festival. ,.I begged Sun Quan to take me with me, but he refused. He frowned and said, "What's the point of going in a mess? You're weird. I don't usually like lively things. What's wrong today?"

I looked at him pitifully: "General, Alan won't make trouble for you, I promise, I won't walk around casually, bored at home all winter, it's so uncomfortable..."

I tried my best to look like an injured little rabbit with my eyes wide open, and finally I begged him to be relieved, and he was elated when he returned home.Seeing me like this, Zhou Yin came up to me and served me a cup of tea very cleverly.

I flicked my fingers and said lightly, "Ah Xun, you are so courteous today, tell me, what's the matter?"

Zhou Xun has always followed the rules, but occasionally he can't stand me and I encourage him to make trouble with me.I pulled him with the intention of letting him go out to have fun too, but it was more because Mrs. Xiao Qiao was not good enough to say anything.Zhou Xun's father was not there, and I liked to play, so she acquiesced in taking him out for a walk.But this time I have a mission, so it's really not easy to take this oil bottle with me, so I rolled my eyes and said: "Ah Xun, the people who are going back this time are all sour scribes, you go and do it." What, it's very boring."

"My sister is talking nonsense again." On his small face, which looks very much like Zhou Yu, there was disdain that was not commensurate with his age: "I have known for a long time that this Shangsi Festival must be fun."

Ah, how bad it feels to be despised by a poor kid.I pulled my face down: "Hey! Mr. Zhou, my sister is not here, you have to take charge of the overall situation in the mansion yourself, you are a man, you must put the overall situation first in everything."

"My sister said I belonged to a poor boy." He smiled all over his face, "otherwise I would even call my younger brother..."

"Little poor boy..." I complained, "Your mother is still in the mansion, so it's hard for you to go out, right?"

He folded his arms, stood with his waist slanted and stretched his legs, pouted and said: "Mother is going to live with my aunt for a while, didn't I just tell my sister yesterday?"

"Really?" I smiled, stretched out my fingers to pinch his face and turned it clockwise ninety degrees: "Ayin, you have a good idea."

He was good-tempered and allowed me to do anything, so I smiled evilly: "I can take you with me, but," I pointed to my cheek, "you have to give me a kiss."

His face turned red immediately, he hesitated for a long time before making up his mind, and I knelt down, closed my eyes and let him kiss me, and stood up again, walking leisurely into the yard.

It’s good to bring Ah Xun, at least this way Sun Quan will be less clingy to me. Whenever I think of the gorgeous maid beside him with sharp eyes, I always tremble... Really, it’s quite scary.

What happened later was completely out of my control. I once thought that I was a magic stick and knew the future like the palm of my hand. I always knew what was going to happen, but this time, I completely miscalculated.

Looking back, it was sunny and sunny on the Shangsi Festival, with the fragrance of early spring flowers in the breeze, the sun was shining softly on the mountain road, and the mountains and plains were full of clan princes and ladies in fine clothes.

I dragged Zhou Xun on the mountain road. He always looked calm and stable in front of people, but under so many curious eyes, he was a little nervous, and he would hold my hand tightly and look up at me from time to time.Most of the people who come to bathe in Zhuoshui today are young men and women. I brought Zhou Xun as if I were setting up a stall selling sesame seed cakes in the stock trading hall, and the exposure rate was extremely high.

The venue for this meeting was chosen at the southern peak of Beigu Mountain, and the pavilion on the mountainside was only completed in winter.The artificially excavated curved water surrounds the pavilion, and then is introduced into the plum blossom-shaped canal in the pavilion, and then flows out from the ground, which is very elegant.On the top of the mountain, there are several modified Qushui and large-scale summer houses, all of which were built since last summer. Among them, the most imposing and tallest one is the "Guesthouse for Senior Officials" where Sun Quan will stay this time.

I smiled and glanced at all the people in the "Sun's luxury holiday villa group" in the pavilion, and pushed Zhou Xun's arm: "Go and meet General Sun, okay?"

Zhou Xun was wearing a small Sichuan brocade robe with a round collar in Chu color, his eyebrows were exquisite and picturesque, but his face was straightened. He looked at me, then at Sun Quan who was sitting in the pavilion with his back to him, and went around to walk in front of Sun Quan : "Zhou Xun met the general."

Sun Quan looked at Zhou Xun with a face full of astonishment, and then turned his head to see me laughing leaning against the stone carving, so he bent his mouth: "Ayin, are you coming to play with your sister?"

"promise."

"Let's have fun," Sun Quan stood up, brushed off his wide sleeves, and patted him on the shoulder: "Guhui will order someone to take you around."

"No, Xun'er knows."

I told Zhou Xun a thousand times, and he listened quietly, with a little excitement showing on his face.I watched Sun Quan's servant girl and two guards walk away beside him, and I couldn't help but sighed.

Sun Quan approached calmly and hugged me from behind. I laughed lightly and slid out from under his arm: "What is the general doing? People are watching everywhere."

He didn't take it seriously: "Watch it if you like it, what's the matter. But you, begged me to come and bring a child, is it for me to look good?"

I couldn't help being scornful: "The general is as knowledgeable as a child."

He came over and patted my cheek: "You go up the mountain first, and I'll go up to your place in a while."

I tilted my head and asked, "What are we talking about in this broken pavilion?"

He smiled and took my hand: "I'm really touched that Alan cares about me so much. Some adults are here to talk about something, you go first."

I nodded, and walked up the mountain with the guards Sun Quan had called, telling him, "Call me the steward who is serving the general nearby."

The steward came, and I glanced at him in surprise, he was so young, with an inviolable uprightness on his face, except for the black spots, his eyes were closed, he was probably only in his early 30s, and he was able to achieve such a high position , is also a remarkable one.

I stood on the side of the road with my skirt in hand, avoiding the soft sedan chairs carrying people up and down the mountain, and asked, "Who is the general meeting today? When will he go up the mountain?"

"Miss, you might as well ask the general yourself." He said respectfully, with a bit of guard and contempt in his dark eyes.

I didn't take it seriously: "The general asked me to have dinner with him today. I don't know when he will be able to go, so I asked this question, but the lord in charge gave me a soft nail."

"Nubi dare not, it's just that the matter is important, and Nubei can't do anything about it."

"Go ahead," I nodded, "There's nothing wrong with being cautious."

Zhu'er followed closely beside me, begging me to get into the soft sedan chair in a good voice, don't get tired from getting dirty shoes.I smiled and pushed her into the soft sedan chair, and walked up the mountain by myself.

Troop deployment map, where are you? I have a monthly salary of more than [-], including food, housing, insurance, benefits, paid leave, and my wife. Are you coming?

I twisted my fingers and complained in my heart, looked up at the top of the mountain from time to time, and then sighed leisurely.

This embarrassed look quickly attracted people's attention, a crimson soft sedan stopped beside me, the curtain was lifted, and Sun Kuang's smiling face appeared in front of me.

"Ah, isn't this Miss Zhou?" Sun Kuang quickly jumped off the sedan chair and walked towards me.

I calmly raised the hem of my skirt to salute: "I have met the Fourth Young Master."

In fact, Sun Kuangsheng has a good face, it is said that he looks more like his deceased biological mother (Note 1), with protruding eyebrows, taller than his elder brother, and a burning gaze.My heart skipped a beat, I'm afraid this guy is not willing to let others down, I don't know how many troubles will be added to Jiangdong's future because of him.

I thought to myself that he was probably looking for some trouble for me, but I felt a little pity in my heart: he probably died young, and his life expectancy might not exceed 20 years old.

He walked in front of me, nodded to me first, then Shi Shiran walked over to me and sat down on the stone pier by the roadside, looking like he was waiting for someone.Immediately, I felt that my face as if I was facing a big enemy was a bit depreciated, so I continued to walk up the mountain with a smirk.

At dinner in the evening, I told Sun Quan about meeting Sun Kuang. He frowned slightly, put down his chopsticks, and said slowly, "Ji Zuo is the most frivolous person, you should avoid dealing with him."

I nodded, surprised in my heart that he had such a bad opinion of my own brother, so I paid extra attention to the relationship between their brothers.

On the second day, because I carried such a big oil bottle as Zhou Xun, I didn't go to take a bath in the water, but I saw people going down the mountain wrapped in thick winter clothes and going up the mountain in light spring clothes.This year seems to be very popular with all kinds of clothes with cup patterns, fresh and delicate colors and Yinggeyan language, most of the men at the evening banquet looked straight.

My table is not too far away from Sun Quan, but it is enough to squeeze a lonely girl in the middle.Except for the New Year's festival in a year, it is only at this time that they have the opportunity to meet men and look for husbands.I knew it well, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, I quietly slipped away under the pretext of changing clothes.

After taking a shower last night, I wandered around the resort and found that the guards were very lax—except for Sun Quan's residence, of course.He still handles official documents right in front of the bed, and he may not bring any troop deployment plan, and even if he does, it may not be the final draft.

I went back to the house and messed around with something to fill my stomach.Alas, the worst part of attending a party is having to go hungry in order to maintain your image.

After I changed my clothes and prepared to go back to the table to perfunctory for a while, Zhu'er whispered outside the curtain: "Miss, someone outside asked you to go out."

I smiled and said, "Okay, come right away." I thought that Sun Quan was really serious, and he came to look for him again after a while.

In retrospect, this was the first mistake I made.At that time, Sun Quan was going to host the banquet. Unlike before, he had no chance to come out to meet me privately under the eyes of everyone. It’s just that I was used to living under Zhou Yu’s control, and I thought that in the six counties of Jiangdong, no one would dare How about me.

I decided that apart from Sun Quan, there would be no one else who would invite me to meet in private, so I followed a servant outside the house with his head bowed and his face couldn't be seen, and left the courtyard without a maid or guard. Go to the most secluded bath at the top of the mountain.

The servant who led the way bowed to me and stepped back, another veiled maid stepped forward gracefully and offered me a glass of wine.

I laughed in my heart, I don't understand why Sun Quan came up with these things.Is he going to host a candlelight dinner here?Then I smiled and asked the maid who knelt down to sieve my wine: "When will the general come over?"

She said in a very gentle tone: "Please wait for a while."

"Okay." I nodded, and casually took two steps beside the large and luxurious open-air bath. Although it was on the top of the mountain, the mountain wind was a bit chilly, but the water in the bath melted into some warmth, so I didn't feel it. uncomfortable.

I turned around and wanted to ask if the hot spring water was used in this pool, but the veiled maid just now had disappeared.

"Strange..." I murmured, and immediately felt a little dizzy, and before I had time to yell, I fell into the pond involuntarily.

Note 1: Sun Kuang's biological mother is Wu Guotai's sister, and Sun Jian's original wife, Mrs. Wu.She is also Sun Quan's biological mother.
