Zhou Lang Zhou Lang

The 500-man elite navy that was left behind when they evacuated Xuzhou had been searching for islands across the sea for many years. Although it cannot be said that they can fully adapt to the wind and waves at sea, they can sail along the coast, starting from the port of Wujun, and bypassing the sea. Xuzhou, where Cao Jun was stationed, went directly north to Bohai Bay in Qingzhou.

Therefore, regarding the Hebei Rebellion, apart from Zhou Yu serving as a guard for Yuan Mai for a few days at the beginning, after Li Mu returned to Wu County, he transported three boxes of gold and five thousand hu millet to the north through this route.

In terms of a large-scale confrontation between the two armies, this amount is far from enough, but for Yuan Shaoyu's party's sparkling momentum, this amount of money and food is enough to give Cao Cao a headache for a long time.

And Li Mu asked for an excellent lottery for this deal - Zuo Ci.

Zuo Ci plotted to assassinate Sun Ce, and Li Mu used Sun Quan's name to exchange money and food for those who killed his brother. Even if Cao Cao knew that she was blatantly supporting the remaining members of the Yuan family, he could only hold back his breath.

Because of this breath, Yang Xiu wandered around Shu County, begging to see him every time, and Zhou Yu saw him every time, but when Li Mu was involved, he either went to marry in Wu County or stayed in Jiangxia, and returned in vain. After that, Cao Cao also understood Jiang Dong's attitude towards this matter.

Therefore, when the summer insects first blew, Cao Jun withdrew from Xiangyang immediately after Jiangling City was broken, and with the Han River as the boundary, he concentrated all the troops remaining in the south to Fancheng to garrison.

At the same time, the imperial edict affixed with the official seal of the prime minister's mansion was delivered to Li Mu together with the Jingzhou animal husbandry seal of two thousand shi.

In the same year as Sun Quan, Li Mu was in charge of state affairs at the age of a general and the crown, which was an unprecedented move.

Li Muping raised his hands, tiptoed and let Zhou Yu tie a three-colored green ribbon around her waist.

The fingers of the hands used to holding swords were slender and strong, with well-defined joints, and they danced lightly around her waist, and the blue water flowed like water at his fingertips, which was pleasing to the eye.

Li Mu was in a great mood watching them, and smiled at Sun Shao, who was looking at them with his chin resting on his shoulders, and said: "Cao Cao has been fighting for years, from Yuan Shao to Chibi, this time Cao Cao is really hurt. After another two years, Ah When Shao Neng wears this seal, he may not be able to take it easy, maybe he will marry another woman from Cao's family to ask for a dowry..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Yu pinched his waist. Li Mu was ticklish, and the ending of a sentence was suddenly high-pitched, which shocked Sun Shao.

"Zhou Gongjin..." Li Muteng blushed in the little guy's widened eyes, and put down his hand to hold Zhou Yu's shoulder and glared at him.

However, Zhou Yu raised his head calmly, and raised his eyebrows at her meaningfully, with a half-smile: "Who will marry another daughter of the Cao family?"

Thinking of the first Cao's daughter's question, Li Mu's aura immediately weakened by half, he curled his lips guiltyly, and smiled at him.

After the Battle of Chibi, there were a lot of criticisms against Cao Cao in Xu Du's court. Although Cao Cao can be suppressed by force, he will definitely not mention the matter of marrying a daughter in a short time, otherwise it is inevitable that he will be criticized for sending his daughter away for peace.

He lowered his eyes and didn't answer, straightened his clothes as a gesture, pursed his lips and waved to Sun Shao: "Ah Shao, it's time to go."

Sun Shao was at a time when he was ignorant and curious about the relationship between men and women, and Li Mu intentionally treated him as an equal adult and kept everything from him, so he became governor much earlier than ordinary children.At this moment, he looked at Li Mu, then at Zhou Yu, snickered, jumped down from the low couch, took Li Mu with one hand, grabbed Zhou Yu's sleeve with the other, and raised his head to answer clearly.

To the south of Mount Xian, in the Mian River, there is a shoal named Yuliangzhou, with mountains behind and water facing, and the scenery is excellent.

The celebrity Pang Degong lived on Yuliangzhou.

Li Mu, Zhou Yu and Sun Shao did not bring their own soldiers to escort them, but only rowed a small boat, loaded with a few scrolls of bamboo slips, and floated to visit.

Bamboo huts, green and lush, standing on the shore is a tall, gentle young man in a blue fine linen robe. When their boat approached the shore, they bowed their hands to greet them: "Bo Ling Cui Jun , have met Marquis Wu, and State Shepherd."

Although Jingzhou Mu was Li Mu, most of the appointments of officials in Jingzhou were handled by Zhou Yu. Li Mu could at most pick out a few familiar names.This Boling Cui family is one of them.

It's just that Cui's children all refused to become officials on the grounds that they were idlers and had no interest in government affairs.However, through Xu Shu, Li Mugang expressed his intention to let Sun Shao worship under Mr. Pound, and Cui Jun and Cui Zhouping, who had always been in contact with Mr. Pound, offered to come to the state to meet him and introduce him.

They didn't want to put all their eggs in one basket to make a clear stand, nor did they want to offend Li Mu. The Cui clan's choice and response also represented the attitude of a large part of the gentry toward Li Mu being the shepherd of Jingzhou.

A flat boat, riding the wind and water, the seemingly elegant and unrestrained picture actually has no artistic conception in the imagination.

Small boats are no more than warships. They have a shallower draft and lower sides. As long as people move a little on the boat, they can sway irregularly from side to side.

Li Mu is a landlubber, he can ride a horse but can't sit in water.After being shaken for a long time, although he did not suffer from seasickness, he couldn't help feeling a little wobbly for a while.

In contrast, Sun Shao, a little guy who was born in a water town since he was a child, has no fear at all.Lifting the hem of his clothes, he jumped off the bow first, saluted Cui Jun hurriedly, then turned around and stretched out his hand to Li Mu: "Second Uncle, be careful where you step."

Zhou Yu smiled lightly, supported the penny with one hand, and with a slight sideways movement, quietly released the other hand to support her back firmly.

Supported by Sun Shao in the front and supported by Zhou Yu in the back, Li Mu got up slowly, got off the boat slowly, stood firm, and then bowed his hands to Cui Jun.

Cui Jun's eyes flicked past Sun Shao's body, and there was a bit of unexpected surprise in his eyes.Their acquaintances talked about the affairs of the world on weekdays, and when they talked about Jiangdong's uncle and nephew, most of them thought that because of Sun Quan's military achievements and reputation, Sun Shao might not be able to appreciate his abdication.But at this time, Sun Shao's movement of turning around to support Li Mu was too natural. If he really did this, then this son's empathy and temperament are indeed a talent that can be taught.And if it's just for him to see, then he can have such a city at this young age, and in the future... this son will surely have some achievements that ordinary people can't match.

Sensing that Sun Shao was a little nervous, Li Mu patted his head naturally, straightened his hair that was slightly messed up by the wind, and then exchanged greetings with Cui Jun: "I have heard about Cui Zhouping's name for a long time. It’s a pleasure to see you.”

Cui Jun had already judged the relationship between the two uncles and nephews in his heart, with a wide smile, he did not dare to say anything, and then saluted Zhou Yu, who was the last to disembark: "Wu Hou Chongling made the decision to open up salt fields. There are countless living people and a rich county. But in filling a state, the state herdsman subdued Cao's soldiers without fighting, so that the people of Jingzhou were spared from the suffering of the war, and the two benevolent and virtuous governments are the luck of our generation."

Everyone in the world knows that the salt field in Wu County was created by Zhou Gongjin's wife, Taishi, but he couldn't talk about his wife face to face. He could only talk about the achievements of Sun Shao and Li Mu, but bowed deeply to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu heard what he meant, smiled and raised his hand to return the salute.

Li Mu patted Sun Shao on the shoulder lightly: "In this way, Lao Zhouping will introduce Duke Pang to Ah Shao, and Gong Jin and I will wait for the good news here."

Cui Jun was taken aback: "The two are going differently?"

Zhou Yu smiled slightly: "Mr. Pang is an outstanding scholar from outside the world. I'm afraid I'll offend him if I come rashly. If I go together, I'm afraid I'll miss Ah Shao."

Li Mu is the shepherd of Jingzhou, and he is the prefect of Nanjun, who supervises the three armies. The two of them sent Sun Shao to study and learn from teachers. It can be said that one is the affection of uncles and nephews, and the other is the righteousness of monarchs and ministers. A senior scholar who is determined to hide in the mountains and forests for a lifetime, but has a whole family behind him will have some misunderstandings.

In fact, when Cui Jun and others received Xu Shu's letter, they also thought that Li Mu was going to invite Pang Degong to come out of the mountain on the grounds of sending him to school.That's why the patriarch of his family agreed that he would take the initiative to welcome him.If Li Mu could invite Duke Pang De to come out of the mountain, it would not be impossible for the Cui clan to work for him.

Of course it wasn't that Li Mu was unwilling to invite Lord Pang De out of the mountain, she just had self-knowledge.In history, Liu Biao, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Sun Quan failed to invite him. She didn't think that compared with these few, she had the ability to make people worship with a shock.

Therefore, she turned her mind to Sun Shao.

Although Duke Pang De did not become an official, all of his disciples and friends were well-known celebrities through the ages.Coupled with his reputation, he is extremely influential among the gentry in Jingzhou and the northern gentry.If Sun Shao can worship under him, then he is either a classmate with these people, or the old saying, Li Mu has already told him the saying that the one who is close to the water first gets the moon.

Just like parents who worked hard to choose a school for their children in later generations, and then sent their children to the school for interviews, Li Mu couldn't help feeling a little nervous when he saw Sun Shao and Cui Jun walking towards the bamboo house on the other side.

"If Lord Pound doesn't want to accept Ah Shao to join..."

"No." Seeing her serious worry, Zhou Yu couldn't help laughing, so he also analyzed it seriously, "Mr. Pang De doesn't want to be an official, but he has followers. Ashao wants his teachers and classmates to be his contacts. Shouldn't his subordinates, his close friends, and even his friends' family members use Ashao as their network?"

Although Sun Shao, the baby Wu Hou, looked like he was messing around, Li Mu and Zhou Yu took him along to deal with both government and military affairs.How could his knowledge and vision be comparable to that of ordinary children?People of insight can tell the difference as long as they have a few words with him.

Soldiers and horses go first before using food and grass, and wars are fought with soldiers and horses, which is even more national strength.She won Jingzhou without a fight this time, in fact, she wanted to slowly guide the pure war of fighting for strength to the competition of national strength.

In this era, the economic and humanistic development of the northern region is still ahead of the southern region. Although Cao Cao was seriously injured in the battle of Chibi, in terms of overall strength, it is still far higher than that of Jiangdong, which has only developed for a few years.But Li Mu had laid down the foundation of salt production.Next, Cao Cao is already half a hundred years old, with a period of ten years, when he is over sixty, how much energy will he have to lead the army?Moreover, the dispute between Pizhi and Pizhi has not yet emerged, but the power will be poured out ten years later, Li Mu can lay an ambush now, and support Cao Zhi secretly in the future, which can make this disaster of Xiaoqiang even worse. Be more violent, and shake the foundation of the Cao family again.

And ten years later, Sun Shao is nearly the crown year, which is exactly her current age.The youth is like the rising sun, the heaven and the earth are fearless, and the universe travels smoothly.The Jiangdong army boldly used young people as generals. Zhou Yu stood up before his age and was already the commander of the three armies. Lu Meng was only in his twenties and was also a general in charge. Xu Shu was not much older than him. Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Gan Ning, Gao Shun are now It is also the year of standing.In another ten years, these people will be in their prime, and they will be the cornerstone of the mainstay.

With Sun Shao as the lord of Jiangdong, he will not fight Cao Cao if he can.With each passing day, Cao Cao will grow older, while Sun Shao will become more mature and stronger.As the so-called strong youth makes the country strong, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead.

Li Mu had already thought of the reason very clearly, but looking at Sun Shao's appearance, he couldn't help but worry.Her understanding of Mr. Pang De is still completely limited to her evaluation of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Cub. As for what kind of person this is, she has no idea.It's not that Zhou Yu didn't talk about it, but Li Mu always had some reservations about these rumors in the world - isn't there still a rumor that she can make water and fire compatible, and that she is a man from heaven?

After thinking about it over and over again, Li Mu finally let out a long sigh, and muttered: "These gentry literati are troublesome. If it is my son, they will be thrown into the barracks directly, and anyone who refuses to accept it will be beaten directly."

Zhou Yu heard clearly and couldn't help laughing.Just as he was about to persuade her, he suddenly came to his senses. After being stunned for a moment, his eyes showed ecstasy, he helped Li Mu's shoulders, and looked at her waist: "Son? Ah Mu, you..."

"What are you yelling!" Li Mu talked quickly, but he didn't expect Zhou Yu's reaction to be so strong, he pressed his mouth and looked around.This is Yuliang Island, not his mansion, God knows if there is no shepherd boy passing by and heard something he shouldn't have heard.

"A Mu..." Zhou Yu's lips moved against Li Mu's palm, and he called her sullenly, his eyes were so bright that the rising sun in the sky almost lost its color.

With Zhou Yu holding him around his waist, Li Mu had no choice but to nod his head, pointed to his forehead, and tapped his lips: "You are not allowed to show it around before it is three months old!"
