The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Vol 7 Chapter 6: Having a child is like Sun Bofu

Xun Zhen's words are not flattering words.

Xun Zhen traveled thousands of miles this time, passing through the four states of Ji, Sili, Yu, and Jing. Except for the fact that he never encountered bandits in Wei County, the journey was not easy. Although he brought a lot of entourage, he did Still encountered several "thieves" siege.

Some of the "thieves" who besieged them were real thieves, some were the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, and some were refugees.

In the face of Xun Zhen's well-armed and battle-hardened cavalry followers, the attack of these "thieves" is naturally impossible, but it can also be seen from the chaos in the world today. Although I often encounter refugees, in terms of public security, it is much stronger than the Sili and Yuzhou that I passed by before. After traveling for hundreds of miles, I did not encounter any thieves.

This is not to say that there are no thieves in Changsha County, at least compared to Sili and Yuzhou, there are not many thieves in Changsha. This is obviously due to Sun Jian's illustrious reputation.

Young Master Sun Jian was a county official. In the seventeenth year, he was famous for his bravery and martial arts. He was called a "fake captain" by the county summons office. In the eighteenth year, he recruited more than a thousand brave soldiers as the county Sima, and joined the state and county soldiers to defeat the supporters. Xuchang, a demon thief in Kuaiji, was asked for the yellow turban from Zhu Jun from Kuaiji, Yangzhou, and Bianzhang and Han Sui from Zhang Wen from Nanyang, Jingzhou. They were famous in Jing and Yang. With the reputation of being a ferocious predator and daring to fight, after he took office in the county, he defeated the district stars in ten months, and risked being convicted by the court. Zhou Dynasty and Guo Shi, who raised troops to respond to Ou Xing, made the three counties awe-inspiring and could be called courageous and courageous. .

With such a great prestige placed here, and so many brave and agile righteous followers placed here, how can the law and order in Changsha County be bad?

Sun Jian shook his head again and again and said, "Zhenzhi, you're not telling the truth! What are you ashamed of? How can my mediocre military exploits compare to your killing Zhang Jiao, repelling Montenegro, pacifying Zhao Wei, Megatron Jizhou?"

It was Xin Ai who killed Zhang Jiao, but Xin Ai was a cavalry general under Xun Zhen's tent, so it was also Xun Zhen's military exploits.

"I'm in desperation now, what's the point of the past?"

Sun Jian said sternly: "Although your lord is desperate now, he was loyal and righteous from the beginning. In the thirteen states of the sea, who does not know the name of the monarch? Who does not praise the monarch's loyalty and honor? Only I know that in Changsha County, there are people who praise the monarch's name. It’s everywhere. Zhenzhi, I admire you!”

Sun Jian is not a scholar. He started his career with martial arts. In today's era when scholars control public opinion, if he wants to have a smooth career, he can only work **** the words "loyalty and righteousness." Having said that, the word "loyalty" is now exactly what he is actively seeking. When he crossed the border last year to fight against the Lingling and Guiyang thieves, the county clerk advised him not to do so, because the two thousand stone no edict was Those who are not allowed to go out of the county boundary without permission are not even allowed to go out of the county boundary privately, how about leading troops out of the boundary? But he did not accept the remonstrance, and replied at the time: "I have no virtue, and I take the conquest as my merit. This cross-border expedition is to help the neighboring county. If you are guilty of this, you will be worthy of the country!" From these few words, it can be seen that , he crossed the border to ask for not only because of his fierce and daring nature, but also because of his reputation for "loyalty and bravery".

Therefore, he admired Xun Zhen from the bottom of his heart for his "loyal act" of arresting and destroying Ye Zhao regardless of his safety.

Sun Jian and Xun Zhen hadn't seen each other for many years, and this meeting was a special kind of intimacy.

Sun Jian arranged Xun Zhen and others to live in the back house. This is the same as Xun Zhen's placement in Handan Rong, who went from Zhao County to Wei County to join him. , Xun Zhen was greeted by the obeisance of life.

Sun Jian's eldest wife, surnamed Wu, was the mother of Sun Ce and Sun Quan, the famous Mrs. Wu during the Three Kingdoms period in the original history.

The brothers Sun Ce and Sun Quan are still young. Sun Ce is fourteen years old this year, Sun Quan is seven years old, and Sun Jian has a youngest son, the younger brother of Sun Ce and Sun Quan, who was also born by Mrs. Wu.

Xun Zhen didn't know how many sons Sun Jian had, and didn't know about his other sons, only Sun Ce and Sun Quan. Hearing that the two older sons were Sun Ce and Sun Quan, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Sun Quan was too young to be worth seeing. Xun Zhen only thought that he was quite calm and different from ordinary children, but that was all.

Although Sun Ce was only thirteen or fourteen years old, he was still a young boy in chief role, but he was already very eye-catching.

He was handsome in appearance and graceful in manner. Although he met Xun Zhen for the first time, he was not timid. He spoke with a clear voice and always had a cheerful smile. In the words of later generations, he was clearly a bright and healthy young man.

Even if he didn't know Sun Ce's later achievements, just by looking at the young man in front of him, he could know that this son would definitely not be in the pool in the future.

Xun Zhen fell in love with him after just a few words with him.

Xun Zhen remembered that Cao Cao later said a sentence: "Having a child should be like Sun Zhongmou". This sentence is not only an "old-fashioned" statement of condescending elders, but also an affirmation of Sun Quan's ability.

Sun Quangu was a hero of a generation, but now he is only a child, and he cannot compare to Sun Ce's dazzling brilliance.

Xun Zhen asked Sun Ce to come forward, let him sit beside him, and asked him, "Do you have a character?"

Sun Ce is only thirteen or fourteen years old, so what are the words? He replied, "Not yet."

Xun Zhen turned to Sun Jian and said with a smile: "So, how about I take a word for him?"

Generally speaking, men do not pick up characters until they reach adulthood, but there are exceptions.

Sun Jian smiled and said, "If you can give a character to a dog, you can't ask for it."

Men's names are mainly chosen by the elders in the family. The characters can be more flexible. They can be chosen by the elders, or they can be chosen by themselves. For example, Fu Xie, his character "Nan Rong" was changed by himself.

Although Xun Zhen is now desperate, he is a son of the Xun clan, Gu Erqianshi, and the former Marquis of Yingyin. Most importantly, he is now famous and has become one of the first-class scholars. He came to get a word for Sun Ce, exactly as Sun Jian said: You can't ask for it.

Xun Zhen touched Sun Ce's head and asked Sun Ce with a smile, "Are you okay?"

Sun Ce replied bluntly: "I often listen to A-Weng tell stories about fighting against the Yellow Turbans in the past, and I've long been eager to see him. If you can give me a word, just like my A-Weng said, I can't ask for it!"

Xun Zhen laughed, patted his head, and said to Sun Jian, "This son is the eldest son of Qing, but the character is Bo Fu."

Sun Jian recited it twice in a low voice: "Bo Fu, Bo Fu." He said with great joy, "Okay, good! It's a really good word."

The word "Ce" by Sun Ce has the meaning of life, and the words used by the court candidates to answer are also called "Ce", while the talisman has the meaning of "Fu Xin". The writing is called Fushu, with "fu" versus "ce", which implies Xun Zhen's expectation of Sun Ce's future contribution to the country, and the hope that the general will enter the country.

Seeing that Sun Jian was satisfied, Xun Zhen asked Sun Ce with a smile, "What do you think of the word 'Bofu', would you like to use it as your word?"

Sun Ce responded and said, "Ce will live up to the encouragement from the public today!"

But he understood what Xun Zhen meant by giving him the character Bo Fu.

Xun Zhen couldn't help laughing again, and the more he saw Sun Ce, the more he liked it, and he unconsciously said, "Having a child should be like Sun Bofu!"

Xun Zhen didn't know that in the original history, not only Cao Cao affirmed the ability of Sun Quan, but before Cao Cao there was another person who affirmed the ability of Sun Ce, who said something similar to "having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou", this person is Yuan Shu.

After Sun Jian's death, Sun Ce recruited Yuan Shu to follow Yuan Shu. At that time, Sun Ce was weak and talented. Yuan Shu was very talented. The words were purely out of love for Sun Ce and envy of Sun Jian.

In the chaotic times of the end of the Han Dynasty, all heroes who can achieve great achievements have their ability and luck. Cao Cao has his talents, Liu Bei won Guan Yu and Zhang Fei when he was cold, and Sun Jian died early, but he had two good sons.

Since Xun Zhen got married, he has been childless. It's not because he can't bear children, but because he knows the world will be in chaos and he wants to kill Ye Zhao, so he doesn't want to have a child at this time. He wants to have children, but he is not too young after all. He is not much younger than Sun Jian. Now that Sun Jian has several children, and Sun Ce is so lovable, he feels similar to Yuan Shu and envy Sun Jian very much. , the idea of ​​having a good son arose.

However, although he suddenly had this thought, he couldn't help it at this time. The only people who came to Changsha with him were Wu Concubine and two maids. , Not even a young wife, Xun Zhen never thought of having a child with her, so she could only wait until the next day to return to Yingyin, and then have a child with Chen Zhi.

That night, Sun Jian hosted a banquet for Xun Zhen and the others.

Although Sun Ce was only a teenager, because Sun Jian saw that Xun Zhen liked him, he also called him and sat by Xun Zhen's side.

The dishes at the banquet were all special products of Jing and Yang, and most of Xun Zhen and others had never eaten them before.

Liquor is a famous liquor in Changsha County.

This wine is brewed with glutinous rice cooked with water from Linghu Lake in Changsha County. Many of the guests from afar were wealthy men. Under the frequent persuading of Sun Jian and Sun Ce's frequent drinking, they all drank heavily and were all intoxicated.

When the wine was in full swing, everyone took the opportunity to dance in a circle. Xun Zhen did not treat Sun Ce as a young man, but treated him as an adult and invited him to dance.

The hall was full of high seats, all of them respected, but Sun Ce was not shy at all, and danced in response.

Everyone saw that in the shadow of red candles, and in the feast of delicious food, a handsome and beautiful man was dancing gracefully. Although he was young, he danced vigorously, advancing and retreating.

Xun Yougu said to Cheng Jia, who was sitting next to him, "This son has the style of Marquis Wu Cheng."

Before marrying Sun Jian, the Wu family had the reputation of being both talented and beautiful. Since the first year of Zhongping, Sun Jian had been in the army all the year round. The Wu family's education was obviously very successful. The Sun Ce brothers had their own special qualities, but after all, father and son were in the same blood. Although Sun Jian had met with the sons rarely and often over the years, the Sun Ce brothers were similar to their fathers in words and deeds. In particular, Sun Ce, although only fourteen this year, already has a valiant appearance, he can be described as a leader of the family.

Wu Jing in the seat next to him heard Xun You's words, and he smiled and said, "Xun You don't know anything, though Ce'er is young, he was already well-known when he was at home, and his reputation has spread. There is a young man named Zhou Yu in Shu County. The children of the Gong clan, who are the same age as Ce’er, have heard of Ce’er’s name, and made a special trip from Shuxian to Ce’er’s house to make a friendship with Ce’er.”

When Sun Jian asked Zhu Jun for the Yellow Turbans in his early years, he left his wife and son at home. Sun Ce, the eldest son in the family, was young, but he had started to stand up a few years ago, and he had made connections with local celebrities and gained a lot of reputation.

Xun You and Cheng Jia listened to Wu Jing's words. At most, they looked up to Sun Ce a little more. Unfortunately, Xun Zhen was not on the side and didn't hear it. Otherwise, although he was desperate now, He would definitely ask Sun Ce to invite Zhou Yu to meet him in person. "The song is wrong, Zhou Lang Gu", in the Yingjie at the end of the Han Dynasty, Zhou Yu was the one that Xun Zhen loved the most before crossing.

However, although Xun Zhen knew that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce had known each other when they were young, he didn't know when they met, so without Wu Jing's words, he would never have thought of asking Sun Ce to invite Zhou Yu.

Sun Ce danced splendidly, Xun Zhen clasped her palms and laughed loudly, with drunkenness, she raised her glass and said to Sun Jian, "Wentai, I have no wish in this life, I only wish to have a son like Bofu in the future."

This is the second time he has said such a thing after seeing Sun Ce today.

Sun Jian was also drunk, he got up from the table, came to Xun Zhen's table, sat down with his legs crossed, holding the wine bottle in one hand and Xun Zhen's shoulder with the other, smiled, "I would like to have a son. Such as Bo Fu, what's so difficult about this? Wait until tomorrow, ... no! Tonight, I will order someone from a good family in the county to send you as a wife! Anyway, you are desperate now, and you have nothing to do. The birth of a child in Changsha is!"

Sun Jian was not from a noble family after all, and even though he was Erqianshi and Marquis of Wucheng, it was still difficult to get rid of it easily. The literati would never say it, and would take it as an insult.

Xun Zhen is very polite when facing Confucian scholars and scholars, but he has dealt with Xu Zhong, Dian Wei and others for a long time, and there is also a chivalrous side in his personality. He doesn't take Sun Jian's words as a surprise, but laughs. Turning his head to look in the middle of the table, he saw Liu Bei who was drinking with Cheng Pu and the others. He called him over loudly, waited for him to sit down, and following Sun Jian's example, he also grabbed his shoulder and said to Sun Jian: "Wentai, my younger brother has not married yet. Don't be too busy to find a wife for me. If you have a good family and a good daughter, tell my younger brother first!"

Sun Jian agreed immediately, raised the wine bottle, and said, "Brother Qing is my younger brother, come and drink this saint!"

Drinkers call those who are pure in wine a sage, and those who are turbid as a sage.

Liu Bei was at a loss, not knowing what Xun Zhen and Sun Jian were talking about, but Sun Jian and Xun Zhen had already lifted the wine bottle, so he could only drink it.

Speaking of which~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Sun Jian, Liu Bei, and Cao Cao all have the habit of letting go, so Xun Zhen drank with Sun Jian and Cao Cao last time and this time with Sun Jian and Liu Bei.

It was night, and the feast did not go away until dawn.

Sun Jian originally wanted to sleep with Xun Zhen in the same bed, but because both of them were drunk, he couldn't do it.

Everyone went to their quarters to sleep.

Sun Jian was helped by Sun Ce and his maid to go to the bedroom to sleep, and woke up in the afternoon.

As soon as he woke up, he ordered someone to call Wu Jing regardless of his hangover, drinking, and a splitting headache.

However, he still remembered what he promised Xun Zhen last night, calling Wu Jinglai to find a wife for Xun Zhen and a good match for Liu Bei.

Wu Jing also drank a lot last night, and still hasn't woken up.

Sun Jian waited for a while, and Wu Jingcai came slowly. He explained the matter to Wu Jing in a few words, and said, "I have promised Zhenzhi, you have to do it right away, Zhenzhi is a hero in the world, find it for him. Even though she is a young wife, she can't just be beautiful, you must find someone who is not only beautiful, but also has a good family voice."

Wu Jing should be.

He should have done this, but he didn't leave immediately.

Sun Jian sat on the bed and rubbed his temples. Seeing that he was not leaving, he asked strangely, "What's the matter with you?"

Wu Jing hesitated and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty..."

Sun Jian frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "I and Zhenzhi are old friends, and we are so happy to meet again after a long absence? At the banquet last night, I was absent-minded when I saw you, and now he is hesitant and worried, what is the reason? ?"
