Chapter 15
Sun Quan and Liu Bei had a sudden truce, and news spread like wildfire.Cao|Cao| was furious. He didn't expect that the provocation would fail, and instead he ceased fighting.Cao | Cao | Puzzled, he summoned his advisers to discuss countermeasures.
『My lord, this truce between Wu and Shu is really incomprehensible.According to reports from the spies ahead, Xu Sheng under Sun Quan had captured Liu Bei on the battlefield, and since then both parties have declared a truce.In the early years, the Sun family married Sun Shangxiang to Liu Bei, and was imprisoned in Jiangdong later.The minister thought that it was very possible that Sun Quan wanted to use beauty tricks again, and kept Liu Bei. Naturally, the Shu Kingdom did not dare to send troops to fight against Sun Quan easily. 』Dong Zhao felt that this must be Zhou Yu's hindrance, and that Sun Shangxiang fell in love with Liu Bei, so Liu Bei must be so happy after meeting Sun Shangxiang that he couldn't think of leaving.Cao | Cao | thought it was reasonable, and asked Dong Zhao if he had any countermeasures.Dong Zhaogang wanted to say that he wrote to Zhuge Liang and asked him to remind his lord not to only care about the personal relationship of his children and forget that Sun Quan wanted to kill his second brother.A woman suddenly came from outside the hall and said that she wanted to see Cao Cao. Cao Cao thought that a woman who came to this barracks alone must be brave and worthy of seeing, so he sent her in.
I saw that this woman had an extraordinary appearance, but she was wearing coarse clothes, which couldn't stop her temperament from being different from ordinary women.After some courtesy, Cao|Cao| motioned her to speak quickly.
"Prime Minister Bing Cao, the name of the civilian girl is Yaoxiang.There was a famine in my hometown during the war, and my parents died early.The First Lord passed by our village and saw that I was helpless and sick, so he took in the women.Later, the Former Lord sent me to be a spy in Liu Bei's mansion. Unexpectedly, the Former Lord lost contact with me after his early death. This time, I was captured by the State of Wu again, and I managed to escape.The women of the people did not dare to forget the kindness of the former Lord for saving them. Wu Jun learned an important news there and came to inform the prime minister. 』
Cao|Cao| was dubious. First, he suspected that this woman was a spy of Wu Jun who deliberately released false news. Second, his late father indeed took in some orphans when he was young and sent them to the Liu family as spies.
Seeing Cao Cao's hesitation, Yao Xiang said, "If the prime minister doesn't believe it, you can listen to my news first." 』
"Let's listen to what you said, if you dare to speak nonsense to favor me, don't blame me for letting you die." 』Cao|Cao|Although he is young, he is not as treacherous and mature as Sun Quan and Liu Bei.
Na Yaoxiang didn't panic when she saw this, and continued, "Prime Minister Bing, the women are working as maids in the Wu army tent, and that day I overheard Zhou Yu and Lu Meng discussing how to keep Liu Bei.Lu Meng said that he would use Sun Shangxiang as a threat...』
Hearing this, Dong Zhao looked at the crowd proudly, isn't this consistent with his speculation!But Yaoxiang's next words made everyone in the hall dumbfounded.
Yaoxiang talked and recalled the conversation between Zhou Yu and Lu Meng that day—Zhou Yu shook his head and said to Lu Meng, "If Liu Bei cares about the second lady, he will accompany her back to Jiangdong that day. In fact, what Liu Bei cares about is the lord." 』
Lu Meng was surprised, but he recalled Xu Sheng's report earlier that the lord cared about Liu Bei's appearance, and hurriedly untied him to injure him. The atmosphere between the two of them was really weird.
"Brother Gongjin, what is the basis for saying that? ’ Lu Meng asked.
"This matter involves the privacy of the lord, so I can't tell you.In short, I have my own plan to keep Liu Bei, so you don't have to worry about it. 』Zhou Yu waved his hand, even if the lord only has Liu Bei in his heart, I will not tell the second person about them.
Zhou Yu later went to Liu Bei and told about Guan Yu, Liu Bei did stay, and it was not easy for Lu Meng to ask why.But other people have their own opinions, such as Yaoxiang.In addition, seeing Sun Quan changing Liu Bei's medicine before, Yaoxiang also mistakenly thought that they were doing something shameful.
Cao|Cao| and the officials all heard the clues. The connection between Liu Bei and Sun Quan seemed to be more than just an ally, and Sun Shangxiang was not worth mentioning.Everyone was discussing and each had their own opinions.Conspiracy theorists headed by Dong Zhao proposed that Liu Bei and Sun Quan were indeed suspected of breaking their sleeves. After hearing this, all the officials agreed, but they were not as bold as Dong Zhao who dared to say such unethical conjectures.
Cao|Cao|Although Cao|Cao| didn't think of that directly, he guessed seven points, his brows were furrowed, and he just ordered people to take Yaoxiang to settle it properly, then dispersed the officials, and retreated back to the study.Later, someone called Dong Zhao to discuss countermeasures with him. After all, such a matter is not suitable for the whole country to discuss together.
Dong Zhao had thousands of plots in his mind, and he couldn't wait to report to Cao | Cao. He was happy to finally have the opportunity to completely defeat Zhou Yu, who thought he was the smartest in the world.
"My lord, since Sun and Liu have done such a mediocre thing, if we don't use this to defeat them, we are really sorry for that Yaoxiang girl's traveling thousands of miles. 』
Cao|Cao| motioned him to continue, "Sun and Liu, one governs the country with the army, and the other regards benevolence and morality as his own."Unexpectedly, the two had the habit of breaking their sleeves, and even pretended to marry Sun Shangxiang to Liu Bei.If we release the news and let the people of Wu and Shu know what kind of dirty person their master is, Liu Bei and Sun Quan will lose the support of the people, and they will be powerless to fight back like bereaved dogs.At most, the five tigers will work for them. When our army will overwhelm the border, the rest of the people will be killed immediately if they don't follow suit. 』
After thinking about it, Cao|Cao| thought it was feasible, and at the same time began to guard against Dong Zhao.In my heart, I despise Dong Zhao's words. They are all conspiracies and tricks. If he is not a gentleman, he will inevitably be a disaster in the future. (Dong Zhao: Che, you are not the same.)
-
Liu Bei stayed by Sun Quan's side, completely unaware that the news released by Cao|Cao|cao had made the city full of wind and rain in Xishu.
It is said that the person you fall in love with for the first time is always the most unforgettable, just like now Liu Bei can't stop his heartbeat as long as he looks at Sun Quan's eyes, and his hatred for Sun Quan before has also begun to be relieved.The wound on his back has begun to scab under Sun Quan's careful care. Every day, Sun Quan has to personally change Liu Bei's dressing.Sun Quan always treats Liu Bei as gentle as water, and he doesn't wear military uniform, preferring to wear plain clothes, just to let Liu Bei get along with him more relaxedly.Sun Quan liked to talk about the interesting things he encountered in the days when Liu Bei was away. Liu Bei just listened like that, and when he heard those who were interested, he sometimes smiled at Sun Quan for an unprecedented time. Sun Quan would pat his head and smile back.Sun Quan's thin lips are often said to be mean and ruthless, but other people don't know it. Only in front of Liu Bei will it make a warm and pleasant voice, bewitching Liu Bei to want to |kiss| him.Whenever Sun Quan saw the desire in Liu Bei's eyes, he stopped talking, shirked and left, leaving Liu Bei secretly lonely.Sun Quan couldn't bear it, he knew that Liu Bei was only emotional for a while, and in the end he would still care more about the rise and fall of the people and the country in Liming. Even if Liu Bei had forgiven him, he would not take advantage of others, Sun Quan didn't want Liu Bei to regret it.
During the days with Sun Quan, Liu Bei was even in a daze. Why was he stubbornly unwilling to live in peace with Sun Quan?The future of the country?Why do I have to save them myself, so who will save me?In my heart, I began to selfishly wish how good it would be to be with Sun Quan all the time.
But war cannot tolerate any chances. Lu Meng saw that his master was hanging out with Liu Bei all day long, and now it was a great opportunity to capture Shu, so he advised Sun Quan to use Liu Bei as a threat to force the Shu army to surrender.Sun Quan cared about Liu Bei, and had promised to let him go back when he recovered. Now the relationship with Liu Bei finally eased. If he backed down, Liu Bei might never accept him again.But what Lu Meng said is correct, how can we achieve both?
Zhou Yu made a suggestion, "My lord, Gong Jin thinks my lord intends to let Liu Bei go. Lu Meng has already seen that this time is deliberately making things difficult."Why don't we instruct Liu Bei to escape on his own, so that Lu Meng can't say much. 』
Sun Quan praised Zhou Yu very much, told Liu Bei to change into Wu Jun's uniform overnight, and sent him out of the camp.Zhou Yu looked at the cold night, the boundless darkness, without a single star, just like the lord saw no one else in his eyes.
"Zhongmou, is it really worth it for you to do this?"If Lu Meng makes things difficult for you..." Sun Quan has taken care of Liu Bei in every possible way these days, Liu Bei has no choice but to think that he is the king of a country, and he has already forgiven him in his heart.When Sun Quan heard Liu Bei calling him Zhongmou again, he felt that everything was worthwhile.
"Get ready, don't worry.After all, I am the protagonist. In my world, (Sun Quan drew a circle on the ground with a branch) there are only people inside the circle and people outside the circle.People outside the circle have nothing to do with me, even if they die in front of me, it's none of my business. People inside the circle, even if they are just a fallen leaf, I will treat them gently. 』Sun Quan looked at Liu Bei seriously, and pulled him into the circle, which can be regarded as an indirect confession.You Liu Bei are people in the circle, and I, Sun Quan, will always be the only one.
Sun Quan held Liu Bei's hand tightly, and Liu Bei also attached his hand.Liu Bei is pretending to be confused if he doesn’t understand what he said. It turns out that I am so important to Zhongmou, but...
"Zhongmou, it's a pity that you and I have our own ambitions. When we meet again in the future, you don't have to show mercy. I won't blame you anymore. 』
After Liu Bei finished speaking, he lowered his head, he didn't dare to look into Sun Quan's eyes, because they were all himself.
Zhongmou, this time we met, I realized how much I care about you. I thought I could forget you, but I was just deceiving myself.Everyone says you are cruel and ruthless, but what I see is the gentle and jade-like you.If it wasn't for the tragic death of your eldest brother, you wouldn't be able to shoulder the entire country.Just like me, if I didn't want the people to be displaced, why would I meet you in battle.
If you think about it carefully, what is wrong with you? It's just that we have too many burdens and are born in troubled times.
In the past, the second brother in Yinshikong had a deep affection for me, but I couldn’t accept his feelings. I thought it was because of the order of time and space, but now I know it’s because I always only have you in my heart. Although I’m sorry for the second brother, but In terms of feelings, no one is sorry for anyone at all, it just depends on who gets stuck more deeply.It's just these words, Liu Bei didn't intend to tell Sun Quan, he was afraid that once he said it, he would never go back, and he would never have the face to face the people of Shu.
Hearing what Liu Bei said, Sun Quan hated himself for not being strong enough.If I have enough troops to fight against Cao|Cao|, I don't have to fight against you.The two agreed to take care of each other, and Sun Quan didn't dare to promise anything to Liu Bei, so he could only watch him go away until the orange light of dawn radiated from the sky.
Liu Bei is sad all the way—how will he face the soldiers when he goes back, can he really hold on to the future of Shu?What will happen to Zhongmou and me in the future?These are all weighing on Liu Bei's heart, and they can't be dissipated for a long time.
The author has something to say: From the beginning of this chapter, it is completely nonsense, and it has nothing to do with the official history of the Three Kingdoms.Sorry for the late update, it's a bit of a jam.I'm so good at talking nonsense, are you happy to see it (☆w☆)

(I think it is necessary to say something about the age settings of the protagonists: Liu Bei is 28 years old, Sun Quan is 30 years old. Cao Cao and Mr. Zhuge are both 29 years old. Zhou Yu is 25 years old. It may take most of his life to be abused.)
