Chapter 2131 Qu Shi said nothing


    Even if Sun Quan wanted to cover up Sun Fu''s incident, he could not. It quickly spread throughout Jiangdong, especially among the upper class in Jiangdong, causing an uproar.


    ??The Sun family''s journey in Jiangdong never seemed to be smooth sailing.


    Wu County.


    ?Sun''s Ancestral Hall.


    The hall was filled with green smoke.


    ??Wu sat under Sun Jian''s spiritual tablet, silent.


    A moment later, a servant whispered outside the hall, "The third young master has arrived..."


    "pass. ” Mrs. Wu still had her eyes closed, her hands clasped together, motionless. Even when Sun Yi came to her side, she didn’t say hello immediately. Instead, she waited for a moment, whether it was after chanting sutras or praying silently, and then turned to look at the person kneeling on one side. Sun Yi.


    ‘Come, burn incense for your father...’ Wu gave up her position in the middle and said to Sun Yi.


    Sun Yi stepped forward, took the incense, lit it on the candle, and then bowed three times before inserting the incense into the incense burner. Finally, he kowtowed again, and then stepped back. When he turned around, he saw Wu''s eyes were faint, seeming to penetrate the curling smoke, looking towards an unknown place.


    … Sun Yi didn’t know whether he should step forward or withdraw.


    "Come. ” Wu pointed to the Jin Tuan beside her and said, “Sit down. 』


    Sun Yi sat down.


    "Your father is not a good person..." Wu said slowly, but Sun Yi was startled when she opened her mouth. "After your father keeps insisting that he is a grandson... Haha, tell me, why?" 』


    ‘This…’ Sun Yi couldn’t help but glance at Sun Jian’s tablet.


    "Haha, don''t worry, your dad is not such a stingy person..." Wu seemed to have thought of something, smiled, and then patted Sun Yi''s hand, "Your dad... actually has nothing to do with your grandson..."


    Sun Jian has always insisted that he is the descendant of Sun Wu, who wrote the handed down art of war during the Spring and Autumn Period. Although this can indeed enhance Sun Jian''s own identity, this statement also exposes some problems. A person, or rather the entire Sun family at the time of Sun Jian, could only talk about people from six or seven hundred years ago to support his family. What is the problem in his bones?


    ??It just shows that in the past six or seven hundred years, there have been no more prominent figures in the Sun family...


    ?Of course, later generations of Wu books still insisted on stating and boasting that Sun Jian’s ancestors were all officials, but never mentioned the specific names and professional titles...


    "Your father..." Wu laughed, "He was originally a pirate... He thought he could hide it from me, so I pretended to be confused..."


    海, pirate? ! ” Sun Yi’s eyes widened and he could hardly believe his ears.


    『Yier, who do you think your father is? ” Wu looked at Sun Yi with interest and asked.


    Sun Yi was obviously at a loss, "I thought, I thought it was...a house of poems and books..."


    “Hahahahahaha...” Mrs. Wu looked up and laughed as if she had heard the funniest joke. She burst into tears. Then she wiped it with her sleeve, “Your father also lied to me like this back then...”


    According to historical records, Sun Jian was only 16 years old at the time, and he had just worked as a temporary worker in a small town. Then he witnessed the pirates dividing the spoils while traveling on a boat. The young Sun Jian showed his extraordinary acting talent and successfully played the role of The role of an officer who was commanding an army to suppress the attack scared away the pirates, and then showed his bravery. He chased and killed a pirate alone. He immediately became famous in one fell swoop. He successfully transitioned from a temporary worker to a full-time employee. At that time, he was the acting captain of the Seoul Urban Management Bureau.


    The home of poetry and books? Haha, your grandfather is a farmer! Your father was only sixteen back then, and he was able to recruit thousands of people to join the army in the blink of an eye? Where does the money come from? Where did the food and grass come from? Haha..." Wu turned to look at Sun Yi, "So, do you know who was acting with your father at that time? 』


    "who? ” Sun Yi asked subconsciously.


    ??Wu Shi smiled slightly, "I can''t tell you everything...but I can tell you the name of one person...Zu Maozu Darong..."


    "What? ! ” Sun Yi was shocked.


    ??Wu Shi nodded, and then her eyes became stern, "Then do you know how Zu Darong died?" 』


    "Didn''t you mean..." Sun Yi was stunned, "Could it be..."


    Wu sighed and looked at Sun Jian''s memorial tablet, "Zu Darong...he was a heavy drinker, and he didn''t keep his mouth shut...at that time, he almost revealed all the secrets about your father...even the jade seal incident was his fault." He let it slip... and then... he died... At first, your dad... was still protecting him, and then I sent someone to kill him... Your dad was still at odds with me for a long time..."


    ??Wu turned her head and looked at Sun Yi, her tone still calm, "So, do you understand what I mean?" 』


    Sun Yi pressed his chest and felt a little out of breath, "My child, my child... I will definitely drink less wine... This matter will not be spread to anyone else..."


    Mrs. Wu hummed, and then pointed to Sun Jian''s memorial tablet, "I will only talk about these things here... If you can''t hold it in anymore, you can come here to talk about it... But if your mother finds out about it, you can Go outside... think about Zu Darong..."


    ! ” Sun Yi quickly agreed and felt a little sweat on his back.


    "Yellow Turban, Xiqiang...your father''s restless temper...haha..." Mrs. Wu nodded, seeming to be immersed in memories again, "Your father finally worked hard and became a prefect...it is more or less wearing official clothes...that''s it." It’s like fulfilling all my wishes...』


    ?Back when Mrs. Wu was still Mrs. Wu, Sun Jian proposed to the Wu family, but the elders of the Wu family thought it was inappropriate and rejected her because they disliked her "frivolousness".


    Sun Jian was naturally unhappy and expressed a very strong attitude, "Jian is so ashamed that he hates it", and then everyone in the Wu family was afraid...


    But why are you afraid?


    You must know that Sun Jian was just a small county magistrate at that time. He had not yet been blessed by the Yellow Turbans and Xiqiang, nor had he experienced any crusade against Dong Zhuo. He was basically an unknown petty official, while Wu''s father had served as the governor of Danyang. Although he died in office, he was not a white man. How could he be afraid of a county magistrate?


    After that, Mrs. Wu stood up and said to her relatives, "Why do you love a woman to bring disaster?" If there is any misfortune, it is fate. ” Then he married Sun Jian. This shows that Sun Jian was far more than just a county magistrate at that time.


    "Your father, this heart is getting bigger and bigger... Hey, this is a good thing and a bad thing..." Mrs. Wu shook her head, "What happened next is that your father went to Luoyang... and then... Dead... Do you know who killed your father? 』


    They are the two thieves Liu Biao and Huang Zu! ” Sun Yi said angrily.


    Mrs. Wu shook her head and said, "Wrong." 』


    "ah? ! ” Sun Yi was stunned.


    "Your father...died at the hands of the Hussars..." Mrs. Wu said slowly.


    After so many years, maybe it was not clear at the beginning, but after all, paper cannot cover the fire, and the cause of Sun Jian''s death has gradually been revealed, but now even if he knows it, he still treats it as if he doesn''t know, and just treats these things , buried in her heart, if Sun Yi''s performance had not really dissatisfied Mrs. Wu this time, Mrs. Wu would not have spoken out about this matter, and used it to beat and point out Sun Yi.


    "What? ! 』


    ?Sun Yi was about to jump up, but he slowly held it back under Mrs. Wu''s stern eyes and sat down again.


    "how? You are allowed to kill people, but others are not allowed to kill you? " Mrs. Wu looked at the coffin on the table and seemed to be telling Sun Jian or Sun Yi, "If you are thinking about killing others, others will naturally want to kill you! What''s so surprising about this? 』


    『Some people look like officials on the outside, but they are all thieves on the inside! ” Mrs. Wu looked at Sun Jian’s tablet and said, “Your father was originally a thief, but he just grew an official heart! I advised him to forget about being an official and just become a thief! Turns out he didn’t! Tell me, if people like him don''t die, who will? ah? 』


    "He doesn''t even look at it. In this world, are there more officials or thieves?" !　　　　　　『Others are working as officials and secretly being thieves, but he is better. He can obviously be a thief directly, but he chooses to be an official secretly! 』


    Is this official so easy to do? 』


    "ah? ! 』


    "Your father didn''t figure it out, so he died... Your elder brother did figure it out, but..." Wu sighed longly, her voice trembling a little, "But it was only on his deathbed that he figured it out... what''s the use!" What''s the use? ! 』


    『Your eldest brother never likes to listen to me...just like your father! ” Mrs. Wu sniffed, as if there was something blocked, “I always like to go against me... Actually, I know that your eldest brother feels that I spend less time with him and more time taking care of you... He also wants me to care about him. To accompany him, so he deliberately did something to attract my attention... But the question is, if I go to hang around him, what will you do? Leave you alone? He is the eldest brother after all..."


    "Then your second brother..." Mrs. Wu turned to look at Sun Yi and said, "I originally thought your second brother really understood, but now I find that your second brother pretended to understand... and then you..."


    Mrs. Wu shook her head, "How come you, the Sun family, all have people like this..."


    “My child, my child dare not...” Sun Yi slurped and did not dare to answer.


    ‘Stop pretending to be pitiful! ” Mrs. Wu glared at Sun Yi, “What are you afraid of? Aren''t you gathering your troops to go out for battle? Okay, what a young hero! What a tiger father but no dog son! What a great person to step up and shoulder the heavy responsibility! How nice! Simply great! 』


    "Children...this...that..." Sun Yi wanted to tell the difference, but didn''t know what to say.


    『What is this? Mrs. Wu pressed forward step by step, "In terms of position, who do you think you are?" Isn''t that a higher position than you? In terms of seniority, who do you think you are? Sun Youtai didn''t say a word. Did you have a loud voice or something? In terms of ability, what are you capable of? Invulnerable, can one person stop thousands of enemies? 』


    "Child, baby..." Sun Yi finally stopped talking, but there was still some anger in his expression.


    Still can’t figure it out? "Mrs. Wu seemed to be unable to hold back and wanted to slap Sun Yi, but she finally endured it. "I really don''t know what evil I have done. I met you guys... If only there could be a decent person beside your father. Counselor, he may not die in Jingzhou! Then your father''s death made your eldest brother know how to find a counselor! Only after finding Zhou Gongjin did he have Zigang, Zibu! 』


    But your eldest brother still dares not use Zhong Xiang, cannot bear Zhou Lin, and cannot use Gu Lu and Zhu Zhang until his death! ” Mrs. Wu asked Sun Yi, “Tell me! why is that? 』


    Sun Yi said: "These people in Jiangdong...are not good people..."


    "Haha, you also know?" Mrs. Wu sneered, "Then you still let him control you?" ! Then what are you? ! 』


    The similarity between Sun Ce and Sun Jian is that they are brave and good at fighting. The difference is that Sun Jian does not have any decent counselors under his command. Sun Ce attaches great importance to these counselors because his father suffered a loss, but he also treats them differently internally and externally. Sun Ce knew very well that refugees from outside the country like Zhang Zhao posed no threat to him and could be used with confidence. However, the local gentry in Jiangdong who were all in the same spirit and intertwined with each other neither owed him any favors nor looked down on his Sun family from the bottom of their hearts. Coming from a poor family, it is difficult to make these people obedient.


    ??If you want to subdue these people, you have to use soft or hard methods. Sun Ce chose to use hard methods. The choice is hard, partly because Sun Ce is used to it, and partly because Sun Ce is lazy and doesn''t like to use his brain in this aspect...


    Do you remember Gao Kongwen? ” asked Mrs. Wu.


    Gao Dai, Gao Kongwen.


    ???Although Sun Yi didn''t know what Mrs. Wu wanted to say, she still nodded slightly.


    "Gao Kongwen is famous all over the Yangtze River... Your eldest brother originally wanted to ask Gao Kongwen to assist him, but he didn''t think about what to do with Gao Kongwen..." Mrs. Wu said lightly, "In the end, someone was instigating both sides. On the one hand, he told Gao Kongwen not to talk to your eldest brother about the Book of Changes." , your eldest brother hates people who play with knowledge the most, and on the other hand, he told your eldest brother that if you ask Gao Kongwen about the Book of Changes, and Gao Kongwen replies that he doesn’t know, he is despising your eldest brother..."


    "You know what happened next..." Mrs. Wu raised her head, "I''ll tell you something you don''t know... Later, I led my men to catch up with that person. Seeing that he couldn''t escape, he committed suicide... What do you think?" , is this a coincidence? 』


    "What? How come I don’t know about this..." Sun Yi was obviously hearing about it for the first time, "Is it possible that this person... was also sent by the Hussar to sow discord? 』


    "Anyway, it''s either Fei or Cao..." Mrs. Wu said, "Personally, I think it''s more like Cao... Your eldest brother sent people to Xudu to pay tribute, and then this person came..."


    『Think that Jiangdong is located in a corner and that means it is safe? Can you sit here and watch two tigers fighting? ” Mrs. Wu shook her head and sighed, “But I don’t know how many people are already lurking in the bushes and hiding in the shadows in Jiangdong! And your second brother is still complacent... and you, why are you still thinking about showing off your martial arts and fighting bravely? 』


    “Speaking of martial arts, isn’t your father brave enough?” 』


    『Isn’t your elder brother good at martial arts? 』


    But what happened next? ” Mrs. Wu couldn’t hold back in the end and patted Sun Yi on the back of the head, “Can Wu Yong survive? ah? You really want to make me angry to death! 』


    "After your eldest brother died, your second brother became a little smarter," Mrs. Wu snorted coldly, "Your second brother was just like you back then, leading a thousand people to fight against the bandits... Huh, those bandits, say If they are bandits, are they really bandits? ! If Zhou Youping hadn''t blocked twelve knives for your second brother, hum... Then who is by your side now? Who can stop the knife for you? Um? 』


    “But the sentences are not all salt workers and miners...” Sun Yi replied subconsciously, and then realized that there was something wrong with what he said.


    "Have you thought of it?" Mrs. Wu stared at Sun Yi, "You just figured it out now... If you don''t go, they will just be salt workers and miners. If you go, you won''t know what they are!" 』


    ?Complex emotions swirled in Sun Yi''s chest and abdomen, making the muscles on Sun Yi''s cheeks twitch. "Such a thief is so brave!" 』


    How much courage does it take to bully a fool? Mrs. Wu sneered, "If I don''t tell you to come here today, will you run away secretly tomorrow?" You are such a big man, why don''t you be a little more discerning? Since they made the sentence so simple, why didn''t they go? The head of the Zhu family is away, so I won’t mention it. The Lu family is a little weaker, so forget it. What about the other two families? Doesn''t that family have more private soldiers than you are currently recruiting? The tools and weapons are better than those of your men? Why don''t they move and come to encourage you? Don''t you think about it? 』


    "If you leave, Guoyi will be dead!" You''re no better! Mrs. Wu pointed at Sun Yi''s nose and scolded, "I originally thought that you were too old to scold you too much, but you can see for yourselves what you have done to the Sun family?" Your second brother mobilizes troops, what happens next? As a result, you also have to fight with troops, and then what? ! Are all the members of your Sun family, father, son, and brothers, all knives and guns in the hands of others? Can''t you have some snacks? ! 』


    ?Sun Yi was silent, then he knelt on the ground and bowed his head deeply, "My child...I know I was wrong..."


    If you realize you are wrong, you must correct it! It needs to be changed! Don’t admit your mistakes all day long, and in the end you won’t change anything! " Mrs. Wu kicked Sun Yi, but it was only a light touch. It was far lighter than the force she slapped on the back of Sun Yi''s head before. "I knew you were all like this... Huh! Kneel over there! Go kneel in front of your father''s spiritual tablet! 』


    "I will ask three questions. Just think about it here today. When will you figure it out? When will you come out to see me again..."


    “The first question is as mentioned earlier, why don’t they go but encourage you to go? 』


    The second question is, who is behind the sentence? 』


    The third question is, in this current situation, what should you do appropriately? 』


    『Think carefully! Be careful! ” Mrs. Wu finally curled her lips in disgust and walked out.


    Mrs. Wu stood at the door of the hall, leaning on the door frame and looking into the distance, showing a rare tired look.


    There are some stone statues standing on both sides of the doorway of Sun''s Ancestral Hall, and behind the statues, some trees are planted. Now in the autumn wind, yellow, yellow, red, and colorful fallen leaves are scattered all over the ground, as if they are paving the way. A vague road leading to an unknown distance...


    After a while, Mrs. Wu stuffed back the weakness and fatigue that had been exposed little by little. When she stepped out of the hall, she was the shrewd and decisive Mrs. Wu again...


    She knew that even though there were a lot of wrinkles on her face and a lot of wind and frost on her head, she still couldn''t fall down. For the sake of the Sun family, for the Wu family, and as the wife of the thief, The mother of these idiots, she must move forward, and she can only move forward, with her head held high...


    Happy holidays to all the mothers in the world!


    Dear book lovers, please spend more time with your family...


    When you reach a certain age, you will find that it is a kind of happiness to be accompanied by your family...
