"Brother Zhou, Zhong Mou was young, Jiangdong rose and fell, and from now on it will all depend on Brother Zhou's help. I must avenge my brother's revenge." Before his elder brother died, Sun Quan couldn't hide his grief and indignation, and bowed his head to Zhou Yu.

"Revenge? Do you know who stabbed someone in the back?" Could it be that Zhongmou had already investigated this matter before?

Sun Quan was angry in grief, and his words sounded like a knife and halberd, "Anyone who is an enemy of Jiangdong is an enemy. No matter who killed the eldest brother, they will all pay for their lives!" Chu sued, Tian deceived me, Jiangdong's talent, but he, Sun Quan, wanted to contend with Tian.Brother, your spirit in the sky will be blessed, and in the future, Zhongmou will surely take the world of the Central Plains.

"Zhongmou, those who are enemies of Jiangdong, even if they are not the murderers who killed Bofu, they will never have a good time." Leaving Baqiu and returning to Jianye, he hurried all the way, but when he actually set foot on this land, he I started to be timid, afraid of the cold words on the spiritual tablet, afraid of Jiangdong's sadness.After all, they are full of blood and deep brotherly love. Unexpectedly, after two years of separation, they become eternal farewells.The three fragrant fragrances could not express the sorrow in his heart, Zhou Yu's pain was probably not less than that of Sun Quan, his own brother.

"Second Brother, Brother Yu, I will listen to what you say. In the future, it will be Jiangdong's foundation. If there is a place for benevolence, I will die." Sun Quan turned around and looked at his 11-year-old sister. , as if seeing the young but stubborn self back then, God, even if you take the lives of your father and elder brother, you can't take away Jiangdong's arrogance! "Brother's good sister, father and elder brother are all proud of you!"

"Zhongmou, no, young lord, after the funeral of the former lord tomorrow, I implore the young lord to ascend the throne and become the new lord of Jiangdong. Zhou Yu swears here that for the foundation of Jiangdong, he will be devastated and have no second thoughts." Zhou Yu clasped his fists and bowed his knees, his expression dignified and firm. .

"Brother Zhou, please get up quickly." Sun Quan helped Zhou Yu up, turned around and looked at his elder brother's spiritual tablet, "Brother, have you seen it? I, Jiangdong, will not perish, and Zhongmou will never be underestimated by those gangsters!" Zhou Yu Standing up, he patted Sun Quan on the shoulder, and said to Sun Ce Lingshi, "Zhongmou is right, I, Jiangdong, will not perish, Bofu, don't worry."

At the funeral the next day, Sun Ce finally went to rest in the ground. The deceased was gone, but he left the living with infinite pain. In Lingxiu's heart, besides sentimentality, there were also doubts.

Zhoufu

Lingxiu poured a cup of tea and pondered for a long time, "Zhou Lang, tell me, who killed brother-in-law?"

"A stab in the back hurts someone, and there is no name left on the arrow, how do I know?" Taking the teacup, he took a sip, his eyes were indescribable.

"Don't you want to find out? You and your brother-in-law are brothers, you..."

"If there is no grievance with Bo Fu, why kill him? He has made too many enemies. Those people are all Jiangdong's enemies. They will fight each other anyway. No matter who kills them, none of them can escape. "Why bother to investigate, getting rid of all those who are enemies of Jiangdong is enough to comfort the spirit of Bo Fu Zaitian.

"Have you ever thought that perhaps it is not only his enemies who want to put brother-in-law to death." There are too many speculations about Sun Ce's death in later generations.

"Lingxiu, you mean..."

"Zhou Lang, think about it, my brother-in-law is young, and Shao'er is young. He was killed at this time. Looking at Jiangdong, who is the biggest winner?" It was his closest relative who died?

Hearing this, Zhou Yu twitched his brows, his expression was serious, and his face was full of disbelief, "You mean... Zhongmou?" But after a while, he regained his composure, "Impossible." His tone was firm, as if he was Sun Quan knows everything in his mind.

"Why? Seizing the throne has existed in ancient times. Although it is unavoidable to be a bit of a villain, it is also reasonable to guess like this. Why are you so sure that it is impossible?" Lingxiu has made such guesses more than once I have seen it on the website and in lectures, and the analysis everywhere is reasonable and logical, but Zhou Yu said so resolutely that it is impossible.Is it really impossible, or does he not want to believe it?

"Lingxiu, you have met Zhongmou, do you think he is such a person?" Putting down the teacup, looking at each other, he asked seriously.

"This..." After pondering for a long time, I only felt that the young man in my memory was gentle and refined, respecting his brother and his wife, not like a villain who would fight for power and power. On both sides, if you can gain insight into a person's mind and character, either you are too smart or the other person is too naive. Obviously, neither of these two seem to be valid.

"Lingxiu, there may be some things you don't know. Bofu has been fighting for many years, and he has accumulated old troubles. He has long wanted to abdicate, has made thousands of enemies, and is full of worries every day. He does not want Shao'er to repeat his path." Speaking of this Zhou Yu couldn't help but feel sad. It seems that life and death are all predestined.

"Then... what does brother-in-law mean?"

"Zhongmou's young ambition is not inferior to Bofu. Sun Shibo always praised him very much when he was alive. He also had the heart to compete in the Central Plains. Bofu's meaning was to pass on the great power of Jiangdong to Zhongmou. Zhongmou has all these things. I know, if he wants to seize the throne, why would he need to do anything extra, and he will be criticized and suspected." He grew up watching Sun Quan. He definitely wouldn't do it.

Hearing her husband's words, Lingxiu was at a loss for words for a moment. In this case, Sun Quan really didn't need to kill his brother to ascend the throne. Even if Sun Ce survived, Jiangdong Foundation would be his after a few years at the latest.He is a smart man, so he would not do this if he would bear the infamy and be criticized and interrogated thousands of years later. "It seems that I am really the one who saved the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

"The distinction between a gentleman and a villain is only laughed off, but it's rare for you to think so deeply. Having said that, Jiangdong Wenwu may not be completely convinced by this new lord. If you want to secure a high position, Zhongmou still has a long way to go. "No matter how ambitious he is, he is still only a 19-year-old boy after all, and besides, Bo Fu died, Shao'er should have ascended the throne, brother will eventually be the younger brother, I am afraid that everyone will criticize him a lot.

"Ask Zhang Zhao if you are undecided about internal affairs, and ask Zhou Yu if you are undecided about external affairs. With you here, his path will be easier." Thinking of these words at this juncture, Lingxiu also admired himself.

"You have lived in the mansion for a long time, and you know a little bit about the affairs of the court? Lingxiu, where did you hear this?" She is a woman, but why does she seem to know so much about Jiangdong's world?

"Well... it's not that you often talk too much about political affairs, I can also spy on three points. After staying with smart people for a long time, I will naturally become smart." In fact, there is a reason for this. The three views have been refreshed a lot. If one day I go back, I will be more authoritative than experts in this area.

"Oh? It seems that Gong Jin underestimated his wife in the past?" Glancing at the table, he remembered the words on the paper he saw a few days ago. Although he lost his reputation for being knowledgeable, Confucius still said, "Don't be ashamed to ask." , I have doubts in my heart, and it is harmless to ask for advice. "Lingxiu, I... have something to ask you." He hesitated, not daring to speak directly, for fear that if he said it, he would lose face.

"Ask, why are you hesitating? It shouldn't be, you have done something shameful." Of course I know this is impossible, but considering his bad mood these days, it is good to make fun .

"Of course not!" It's important to deny it decisively. With his dignified identity as the guard in the army, and the Mei Zhoulang that everyone talks about, how can there be anything shameful, "I, I want to ask you, put it on the desk in the study. What did you write on the piece of paper on the table, why can’t I understand a single word?”

Lingxiu turned his head, the study room, the table, the paper... "Zhou Lang, I really underestimated you, you——you can still see how many words there are?"

"Ah?" Zhou Yu was very surprised, and then his sense of shame doubled, "Actually, I can't see a few words..."

"Oh, that, that is..." It's so miserable, how can I say that?Tell him, this is a numbered musical notation, the way people wrote it more than 800 years later?That seems to be more unclear. "That's a talisman I drew to ward off evil spirits. Only ghosts can understand it. It's weird if you understand it."

Zhou Yu's eyes widened, and the feeling in his heart was probably stunned by the shock, "Dispel, ward off evil spirits?"

"Well..., it's all because of him. I've been doing some irrelevant things recently. These days, you'd better take care of it." Lingxiu pointed to the unborn Xun'er in his belly, and blamed all the crimes. push on him.I'm sorry, Xun'er, for the sake of you and my mother and son, you should help mother lie first.Besides, my mother wrote the score to play it for you, to cultivate your sentiment, so that you can better inherit your father's musical talent in the future, be good, be good.

"Him? He can still control your mind?"

"You don't understand. Pregnant people are especially prone to wild thoughts." Lingxiu was speechless, anyway, he didn't expect Zhou Yu to understand this situation.But understanding or not is secondary, as long as he is not angry, not suspicious, and can be happy.

"Okay, okay, I just want you to smile. These days, you are always thinking about your brother-in-law, and you finally noticed what I wrote. Zhou Lang, don't be sad anymore, brother-in-law I also don't want everyone to be sad for him, and..., Xun'er also wants to see his father smiling." The brotherhood that grew up together is naturally not comparable to her who has only appeared in her life for two years. However, Lingxiu really didn't want to see Zhou Yu sullen all day long, since he encountered such an opportunity, it would be good to find a way to make her husband smile.

"Xun'er? Can he see whether I'm crying or laughing?" He's only very young, and he's probably just formed at this moment. In the womb, he's in charge of his father's emotions.

"He can't see it, but he can feel it. If he can't feel it, then you can tell him." Lingxiu held Zhou Yu's hand with sincere eyes.Xun'er, you must not want your father to be unhappy.

Zhou Yu stood up, covered his lower abdomen with one hand, bent and squatted down slowly, and listened to the movement in Lingxiu's abdomen. He seemed to be able to hear the child's heartbeat.In a few months, he was going to be a father, and only then did he realize that in this world, there was such a close relative who was connected by his blood.Since the death of his parents, he has always been alone. This child who is about to be born is his and Lingxiu's flesh and blood, and is his first child.

"Xun'er, my father told you that I am very happy to have you and your mother." Lingxiu lowered his head and looked at Zhou Yu, who was smiling at the corner of his mouth, with a hint of warmth in his heart.Xun'er, thank you. ?
