Three Kingdoms

When Mrs. Wu arrived, she naturally had nothing to say, and Sun Quan left the city obediently.

Mrs. Wu is already very old.

The human body is like an upward parabola. After middle age, it begins to fall downwards, and the farther back it falls, the faster it falls. In the later stages, it is almost like falling vertically!

Moreover, it is basically irreversible.

Therefore, people often lament that they have aged so quickly in just one year, etc. However, many young people will not understand this kind of emotion or feeling until the day they grow old.

A few years ago, Mrs. Wu could still drive around in a car and go up and down stairs without any problem. However, in the past two years, she has been unable to climb stairs. She has no energy to go anywhere on weekdays. If it hadn't been for too much movement this time, Mrs. Wu wouldn’t have worked so hard to come here.

As soon as Sun Quan paid a visit to Mrs. Wu, she was scolded aside by Mrs. Wu, "Get out of the way, don't block your eyes!" 』

Sun Quan swallowed and then shrank aside.

Opposite him is Sun Lang.

Zhou Yu did not attend the meeting, but led the repressive troops outside. It was not easy for Zhou Yu to attend such a meeting. So from a certain perspective, it was the meeting of the Sun family themselves.

Sun Lang took out a small wine gourd, the size of a palm, held it in his hand, opened the stopper, smelled it, but did not drink it, just shook it gently in his hand.

"Lang'er hasn't changed much after so many years. Instead, he is old and getting weaker. I'm afraid his time is running out..."

Hearing the soft sound of Sun Lang shaking the wine gourd, Mrs. Wu raised her eyes and looked at Sun Lang, and said something as normal, her tone was slightly flat, and there was no special expression of emotion.

After a short meeting, the atmosphere was not as awkward as it was at first. Sun Lang laughed, put the small wine gourd in front of him, glanced sideways at Sun Quan, and replied, "Why do you have to say this, mother?" Don’t worry, if you can’t fight, I won’t do anything to bully my brothers..."

"rest assured? Yes, it’s time to relax, your children and grandchildren are all extraordinary, but old people are the most disgusting, it’s time to avoid the banquet! Mrs. Wu also turned to look at Sun Quan, and then sighed.

Both of them obviously had something to say, and Sun Quan on the side wanted to say something, but when he saw Mrs. Wu's stern look, he lowered his head again.

Mrs. Wu sat up straight, looked down at Sun Lang, was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice with her lips moving: "Lang'er, Lang'er, can you tell me what you really want?" You ask yourself, although you are a commoner, but from childhood to adulthood, all your food, clothing, civil and military expenses, have your old body ever made you half a point less than other brothers? But today, it’s you, why you? What does the Sun family, brothers and sisters, flesh and blood, and family ties mean to you? 』

As she spoke, Mrs. Wu's eyes seemed to be filled with mist, revealing a weakness and sadness that Sun Quan had never seen before.

Sun Lang sat up straighter and said, "My son owes his mother's kindness, and I can't shirk away from all these cunning words!" The broken body was imprisoned in Wangjiang River, and the soul drifted far away and suddenly came back, just looking for relief. Now that I have met my benefactor, I realize that I am not without anyone who cares about me. Even though I am imprisoned, I am not lonely. I feel deeply about my mother's hard work, but it's a pity that the villains are alienated and cannot share the labor and worries. Now that I have a small ability, I claim to be able to help the family, and I hope that my mother will accept her approval, so I can feel at peace in my heart... 』

As Sun Lang spoke, he bowed deeply again and continued in a solemn voice: "No matter what the rumors are outside, in my heart, I just feel that although my mother is not my biological child, she is better than my biological child. Now it disturbs my mother's purity and fails to stabilize the Sun family." , I really feel incompetent, extremely ashamed, and wish I could..."

Sun Quan couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "Sun Lang!" Do you think I can't hear your sarcasm? 』

Sun Lang laughed, "Oh?" You still have ears...oh, no, you still have a heart? Can you still understand? Rare, rare! 』

"You..." Sun Quan was furious.

"alright! Mrs. Wu put away the moisture in her eyes, rubbed her head with a headache, and then asked Sun Lang again, "What do you want?" 』

Although the two sentences are the same "What do you want?", the tone is completely different. The first time is soft, and the latter time is strong.

Sun Lang laughed, as if he had encountered the most ridiculous thing, "Right? The matter has come to this, so why bother with lies?" 』

"Yes, why bother with lies..." Mrs. Wu took a breath and smiled bitterly, "I really didn't expect that after so many years, Lang'er has made great progress..."

Sun Lang also smiled, and the smile was also a little bitter, "I have to examine myself three times every day, am I being unfaithful?" Make friends but don’t believe it? Are you not used to it? If you think about it day and night, you will naturally gain something. 』

The three of them were silent for a moment.

Sun Lang raised his eyes and stared at Sun Quan, "I don't ask for anything else. The only regret is that the Sun family's fortune cannot be entrusted to Xian!" If people don't have desires that are hard to satisfy, even if they are from Jiangdong to Jiangdong, what's the difficulty in supporting one person? I'm afraid that the importance will not be distinguished, the burden will be big but the capacity is small, and the power will be too small to act rashly! My mother, the Sun and Wu clans rely on each other's wealth, but I don't know that this person only focuses on gains and losses, is mediocre, and does not understand the importance. It is really unworthy of others. 』

"You...you you..." Sun Quan pointed at Sun Lang, "Bold!" You actually slandered me! 』

"Humph," Sun Lang ignored Sun Quan's incompetent rage and turned to Mrs. Wu and said, "In addition to expressing his grievance and depression, the child is also hoping to be close to his mother, but he is on his knees day and night. Be taught and trained, and no longer be hindered by evil emotions..."

Sun Quan almost jumped up, you are the one with evil feelings, your whole family is evil, oh, no, it seems that even he is involved...

Sun Quan took a deep breath, an idea flashed through his mind, and he suddenly said: "Brother Lang said all these things... but did he deliberately anger me?" 』

Sun Lang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Ha, it seems you have made progress too." 』

Mrs. Wu glanced at Sun Quan, then turned to look at Sun Lang, with a trace of sarcasm on her lips, and sneered: "As you said, the current situation is what you want?" 』

Sun Lang said: "Although there are differences, they can be supplemented." On the contrary, if it is allowed to rot, it may become difficult to change! I don't want my father to be famous all his life and end up like this! Therefore, the child works hard and does things. Although it is a little lacking in emotion, he can keep his heart in mind. 』

When Mrs. Wu heard this, she started laughing. She just laughed lowly at first, and then her laughter gradually became louder. In the end, she pointed at Sun Lang and laughed so hard that she stopped after a while, raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes and laughed. Tears bursting out of my eyes, "Interesting, interesting!" Years have changed, and we should look at each other differently. Before meeting you, I was still resentful, but after meeting you, I became enlightened. No wonder Lang'er has made such progress, no wonder! 』

Mrs. Wu smiled, stared, and then said, "It's just that this makes me regret even more. I should have gotten rid of you back then. I really should have gotten rid of you back then!" Just a thought of reluctance! 』

Sun Lang's smile faded.

"You pride yourself on being proud and well-calculated, but you don't know that you are just as good as this idiot!" Mrs. Wu pointed at Sun Quan, and then at Sun Lang, "Such idiots are ruining the Sun family's foundation, but you... are arrogant and do not know the heights of the sky. You have long fallen into the hands of others and been manipulated." In the palm of your hand! 』

Sun Lang's eyes darkened.

"Think about it for yourself and think about yourself three times, but you should think about it carefully!" Mrs. Wu said angrily, "What does the Sun family rely on to suppress Jiangdong?" Is it relying on your three provinces? Does it rely on scriptures to pass down the family line? neither! It depends on the soldiers in hand! It depends on the stability of the army! And you...you! Today, I was completely ruined by you idiot! From today on, the Sun family is no longer peaceful! You, Sun Lang, are the first! Others will follow! 』

"You are really a good lady from the Sun family!" good! Very good! Mrs. Wu scolded, "Your father hates those hypocrites the most, and often laments that he has to be hypocritical and submit to others... Therefore, your brother Ce will not tolerate these at all... you are too strong... so much that... 』

Mrs. Wu said, tears welling up in her eyes, "Now, now...a fool learns to have bad intentions, and a fool learns to be serious, they are exactly the same!" same! 』

"If you really have deep love and care, how can you dare to make big plans?" If you really know that all you have is from the family's gifts, how can you fight with swords! 』

"fool! idiot! How could the Sun family have two of your brothers! 』

"Could it be that God wants to destroy the Sun family?" ! 』

At the end of her speech, Mrs. Wu's voice was fierce, as if she was heartbroken.

Sun Quan lay on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "Mother, calm down, calm down, take care of yourself. It's your fault that you are stupid..."

Sun Lang lowered his head and reached out to pinch the small wine gourd in front of him. He did not kowtow to admit his mistake like Sun Quan. He didn't admit his fault back then, and he certainly won't admit it now. Although the sons of the Sun family behave slightly differently, they all have the same stubborn temper in their hearts.

After a long time, after Mrs. Wu's breath calmed down a little, Sun Lang said slowly: "In this case, I don't want to ask for too much... There is only one thing..."

Sun Lang raised his eyes and looked at Mrs. Wu, "In the past, when I was in power, Brother Ce's son had not yet been born. It was unknown whether the boy or girl would be good or bad... Now that Brother Ce's son has grown up, why not give back the power?" This recipe is a family inheritance, and your ethics are always in order! 』

Sun Quan couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, and then looked back at his mother.

"..." Mrs. Wu's breathing became erratic, and she paused for a moment before saying, "Lang'er has such a desire to remember the family bloodline... which is very good... but he is still young and cannot take on big responsibilities..."

"Therefore..." Sun Lang turned his attention to Sun Quan, "Mother, you will always defend me, no matter whether this person is right or wrong?" Can you even ignore the inheritance of ethics? Since there is a posthumous son, why can't he be left alone? Is this a refutation of ethics? Can people from Jiangdong criticize it? 』

"..." Mrs. Wu said, "Although there is a posthumous body, he is still weak and sick, and it is difficult to take on big responsibilities. Therefore, we should wait until his body is stable before talking. Otherwise, there will be many shocks due to continuous changes, which is really inappropriate." 』

"oh? Sun Lang still looked at Sun Quan sideways, "How did I hear that...the younger brother bullied his elder brother and his sister-in-law, imprisoned his elder brother's son, did not send teachers, and did not teach loyalty and filial piety... It's no wonder he is "frail and sick", no wonder he is "difficult to pick" Great responsibility"..."

Halfway through, Sun Lang suddenly turned his head and looked at Mrs. Wu, "Looking at Mother's expression...she already knew it?" ! ha! Hahaha, I should have thought of it earlier, I should have thought of it earlier! Haha, hahahaha! Ridiculous, ridiculous! It turns out that everyone can speak high-sounding words! Everyone can do dirty things behind the scenes! Ha ha ha ha! good! What a good mother! Brothers! 』

At this moment, Sun Lang truly felt the boundless helplessness and sadness, the despair that swallowed him up like a huge wave.

The initial disappointment started when Zhou Yu arrived, and then at this moment...

The only light had disappeared, leaving only darkness.

And the smell of decay in the darkness.

It was as if Sun Lang's own body was beginning to rot...

"Asshole!" "Sun Quan said angrily, "Things are not what you think..."

"enough! Mrs. Wu stopped Sun Quan and said in a deep voice, "There is no need to explain... Even if you explain, he may not be willing to listen or believe... Lang'er, if you still have the flesh-and-blood relationship between your father and your brother in your heart, you will surrender immediately." Even if he is captured, there is still a way to survive! 』

"Why can't you say it?" Why not let him say it? ! Sun Lang glared at Mrs. Wu, "You know that, right?" In fact, you know it all, and you even participated in it, right? ! That's, that's Brother Ce's..."

"enough! Mrs. Wu said angrily, "You are not allowed to participate in this matter!" 』

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha..." Sun Lang laughed, "I see, that's it... I understand, I understand..."

"What do you understand?" Sun Quan couldn't help but said, "You don't understand anything!" 』

"Hahaha...what else don't you understand?" What else can’t be said? Sun Lang laughed and said, "Isn't it just that he was born in captivity and died in a prison?" Same as someone! Hahaha... What a good mother and brother! 』

"Aha!" My father's good wife! My good mother! And my good brother! ” Sun Lang laughed, then raised the small wine gourd, poured some out, and dropped it on the ground, “This is respecting heaven and earth! Respect father again! Brother Sanjingce! Um...Brother Quan, would you like to drink? 』

Sun Quan stared at Sun Lang coldly and did not answer.

Sun Lang shook his head and laughed, drank to himself, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "I came out of Wangjiang Terrace and never thought about going back again!" The Sun family...the people of the Sun family would rather die on the battlefield than die in shame on their bed! 』

"Mother..." Sun Lang turned to look at Mrs. Wu, "I'm really unworthy. I failed to win some respect for my father, and I'm not very smart either. Sometimes I can't help but act out of impulse... But, haha, that's the end. Once..."

"The people from Jiangdong are taking advantage of the gap between you and me to cause trouble..." Sun Lang said to Sun Quan again, "The fault is naturally my fault... But I don't know if Brother Quan is satisfied?" Is this what you want? If you and I are close brothers, how can there be any chance for outsiders to cause trouble? ! Ahem..."

Sun Lang seemed to be speaking passionately, coughing, and then took another sip of wine to himself, "Looking at the river from the terrace, the begonias are red among the begonia flowers... Year after year, day and night, Brother Quan Will you remember me one day? Can you come to see me once? Just like the son of brother Ce, can you think of him as a nephew of the Sun family and a descendant of the Sun family? ! ah? ! Is the crabapple tree planted by brother Ce still there today? ! 』

"I'll have someone chop me down!" Mrs. Wu said in a deep voice, "When people die, what are they doing with the trees?" ! 』

"..." Sun Lang was startled for a moment, then coughed violently, "Ahem... good chop!" Ahem, okay! Haha, good job..."

As he spoke, Sun Lang suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood, then fell to the sky, and the small wine gourd in his hand rolled to the ground.

"you! 』

Mrs. Wu and Sun Quan couldn't help but stood up.

Mrs. Wu looked back and forth between Sun Lang and the little wine gourd, "You... why are you doing this..."

"Haha... I said..." Sun Lang spread his arms and legs, "I came out... I didn't plan to go back... I thought I could see the Sun family's... ahem, the Sun family's hope... now I can’t see it anymore…』

Sun Lang suddenly stood up, black blood spurting from the corner of his mouth, staring at Mrs. Wu and Sun Quan, "I will go to Jiuquan to find my father and Brother Ce!" Tell them what you both did! Haha...cough cough cough..."

Sun Lang was exhausted and fell down again. His voice gradually faded, "Kill your son, imprison your brother... bully your daughter-in-law, harm your nephew... What a good mother and son... Haha, cough, cough, all words are righteous, haha, cough, cough." Cough...I have all the bullshit in my heart...I will wait for you...I am...under...Nine Springs...waiting for you..."

Sun Lang coughed violently again, spitting out a large amount of black blood, then breathed weakly and died.

Sun Quan stood blankly.

He didn't expect such a scene at all.

He never thought that Sun Lang would commit suicide!

Why commit suicide?

Why commit suicide?

I can’t figure it out at all!

Mrs. Wu looked at Sun Lang's body, her face turned white, and after a moment she turned red again, her body was shaky...

"Mother, Mother..." Sun Quan hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"..." Mrs. Wu held Sun Quan's arm tightly, breathing violently, and then spurted out a mouthful of blood!

"Mother!" 』

"It's okay..." Perhaps the spit of blood helped dissipate some of the accumulated energy in her chest. Mrs. Wu wiped the corner of her mouth and glanced at Sun Quan, "I... I can't die for the time being... at least, I can't." Die now...go! Rumor has it that Zhou Gongjin and officials from the city are coming! 』

"Mother..."

"Go quickly!" Mrs. Wu slapped Sun Quan on the head.

After a while, Mrs. Wu sat upright, while Sun Quan, Zhou Yu and others stood at attention.

"As a rule, merit is rewarded and crime is punished. This is the general rule of the country. Only kindness and filial piety, only forgiveness and hatred, this is the moral principle of the family. Now the power resides in the east of the Yangtze River, and he has been entrusted by the emperor and entrusted by the people. With all of you serving and assisting him, he can build an unparalleled foundation! 』

"The battle of swords and soldiers is unfolding in front of you. Even though you have been in battle for a long time, you can't help but be frightened." All of you are so loyal and sad that you don’t even eat or drink, and your hair doesn’t touch your pillow, just to protect the overall situation from collapse! It’s all hard work..."

Mrs. Wu said in a deep voice, as if she was not the one who just vomited blood, "This traitor is good at swordsmanship, regardless of dignity and inferiority, trying to use heavy weapons, and breaking the sword under the city. There is no other, but it depends on the will of God and the will of the people." ! He knew that his crime was serious and he did not ask for forgiveness, so he drank poison and died! 』

"The dead are great." Although Lang'er has committed evil deeds, he will eventually regret it. Now he will atone for his sins with death, and the rest will be exempted... Now Jiangdong is at a critical moment. The emperor and his ministers should work together to plan political affairs, manage the army, stabilize the place, and... Develop your ambitions! How can we be suspicious of each other and kill each other? 』

"Quan'er!" 』

Sun Quan cupped his hands and replied, "The child is here." 』

"Fortunately, I was a young man in the Zong family. Although I was in chaos within the wall, my deceased husband was protected by heaven, so I didn't make any big mistakes." Gong Jin came to the rescue on his own horse. His contribution in protecting the king can be expressed in songs and should be greatly rewarded! It is also rare for the rest to be united and stick to their loyalty, so they should also be considered meritorious! 』

"Kid, remember this. ” Sun Quan replied.

"good. Mrs. Wu nodded, "I am old and my energy is very low. I will entrust you with the beginning and end of this matter. I hope you will help me with all your heart. The Sun family... will definitely live up to you and give you all the rewards!" 』

Zhou Yu and others bowed together.

Mrs. Wu waved her hand, boarded the car, and then slowly left under the watch of everyone. It was not until she could no longer see the figures in the distance that Mrs. Wu suddenly spat out another mouthful of blood, and then she could no longer maintain her figure. , fell down softly...
