Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

232 AD, July [-]st, Xinling
After consultations between the two countries, it was decided to meet in Xinling County, Yidu County at the junction of Han and Wu. Both Han and Wu sent soldiers to guard Xinling.

At Sishi (10:00), Liu Chan, wearing a long crown, wearing a fiery red brocade robe and deep clothes, holding the rein, sat on a horse and looked at the long pavilion two or three miles away. The Wu people have arrived.

Ji Han inherited the fire virtues of the two Han Dynasties and favored the red, Cao Wei inherited the fire virtues of the Han Dynasty with the earth virtues and favored the yellow, Sun Quan used the wood virtues to defeat the earth virtues and still favored the green.

Not long after, Liu Chan heaved up and down on his horse and led the team slowly approaching.

Facing the sun, Sun Quan squinted at Liu Chan and his party on the stone steps in the mountain, pointed out emptiness, and asked, "Is the leader wearing Shu robes Liu Gongsi (Liu Chan character)?"

Zhuge Jin raised his hand to shade the sun, took a closer look, and said, "Exactly, Emperor Han!"

While speaking, Liu Chan had turned over and got off the horse, and walked up the steps slowly with the hem of his clothes in his hands.

Sun Quan looked at Liu Chan, who was walking in, and saw that he was more than eight feet tall, with a face like a crown of jade, and a tall and straight figure, with a sense of nobility emanating from the inside to the outside, and his gestures and gestures were full of majesty.

Sun Quan shook his head and sighed: "Sure enough, the appearance is extraordinary, quite like his father Liu Xuande."

Halfway through the stairs, when he was approaching Sun Quan, Liu Chan raised his head and looked at Sun Quan. Seeing Sun Quan's big mouth, bright eyes, and burly figure, he said in his heart, "What a purple-bearded king (Note ①)".

Sun Quan went down a few steps to greet Liu Chan in person, and when he was one or two steps away, he couldn't help sighing secretly for the young king in front of him, "It's so beautiful!" '.

It's a pity that all the daughters under my name are already married, if I can use this son as my son-in-law, that's enough!

Liu Chan looked at Sun Quan, who had reached the age of knowing his destiny, and couldn't help secretly admiring his vigorous energy. You must know that Zhuge Liang was one year older than Sun Quan, but his temples were slightly white, while Sun Quan's temples were still like ink.

As expected of Emperor Wu!

Liu Chan stretched his hands out of his sleeves, bowed his hands and saluted, "Thank you, Master Wu, to welcome you personally!"

"Han Lord, you don't have to be polite. A fine banquet has been prepared in the pavilion for the Han Lord's visit." Sun Quan replied.

"Please!"

"Please!"

Liu Chan and Sun Quan stepped into the long pavilion. Outside the pavilion, the drums, zither, lute, and flute were ready, curtains were hung around the pavilion, and beautiful screens separated the two sides.

During the conversation between Liu Chan and Sun Quan, Chen Dao gave Chen Dao a wink, and he understood instantly, and led the Bai Mu soldiers into the pavilion one step ahead of time, inspecting the west half of the pavilion.Fei Yi led the attendants to the table and changed the dishes and tableware.

"Master Wu, please forgive me!"

Sun Quan was not surprised by Liu Chan's cautiousness. Instead, he stroked his beard and watched Bai Mubing's movements, and said, "It's all right! I've heard about Bai Mubing's name for a long time, but I've never seen it. I saw him today, and he was a soldier from the West. It's a pity that Wu has no such soldiers!"

Liu Chan smiled slightly, and said flatteringly: "Master Wu's Xiefan army is also a soldier from the East, what envy you?"

Hearing this, Sun Quan laughed and said, "It's better to have more soldiers. There are not too many, but we are afraid of not having enough."

After Chen Dao's inspection was correct, Liu Chan then led the big man to accompany the officials to sit on the west side of the long pavilion.

After half a sound, the sound of silk and bamboo outside the pavilion sounded, and there were staggered toasts and chips inside the pavilion.

Sun Quan knelt on the couch, straightened his back, concealed the shortcoming of his lower body, and highlighted his burly posture even more.

Sun Quan raised his wine bottle and said with a smile: "Today's banquet is to celebrate the great Han's capture of Qin and Longzhou and defeating Wei. I hope you all have a drink!"

"Master Wu please, all ministers please!"

Sun Quan boldly raised the wine bottle, drank it down, and the wine slightly dampened his beard, recalling: "In the past, Cao Cao sent [-] people to the south to Wu Chu, and I joined forces with Xuande Duke to defeat Cao's bandits in Chibi, and then won three parts of the world. At that time, Duke Xuande was in high spirits, and he allied himself with Jiangdong to form an alliance against Cao Cao, your country will take Yizhou, and I will take Jiaozhou."

As he said that, Sun Quan said with a trace of memory mixed with sadness on his face.

"It's a pity that the beautiful woman collapsed in the middle of her business before she started her business. When I heard about it in Jiangdong, I was so sad that I burst into tears. When the eldest princess (Ms. Sun) heard about it, she was so sad that she wanted to throw herself into the river and went to find Duke Xuande. I can see the Lord of Han today, and I am very happy for Duke Xuande. Your country has a master of Ming, and Duke Xuande has successors, so I am not alone!"

Listening to Sun Quan's high-sounding words, Liu Chan cursed inwardly.Old Liu passed away, except for Cao Pi, I am afraid you are the happiest. I guess when I heard about it, I might not have been singing and dancing in Wuchang, and I was still crying.

As for Mrs. Sun, don't talk about it. In Jingzhou, I despise Lao Liu. How can a seventeen or eighteen-year-old rich girl be willing to be with an old man in his fifties.

When he was in Jingzhou, he was unruly and domineering every day and did not abide by the law.When Lao Liu entered her room, hundreds of maidservants were armed with weapons, so that every time Lao Liu entered her room, he felt terrified. You must know that Lao Liu has fought for decades.In the end, Lao Liu had no choice but to build a city in Chanling for Mrs. Sun to live alone, and let Zhao Yun supervise it.

For this reason, Zhuge Liang also said that when Lao Liu was in Gong'an, he was afraid of Cao Cao's strength in the north, Sun Quan's approach in the east, and feared that Mrs. Sun's life would be under the armpit.

Liu Chan sneered in his heart, and said sadly: "The majesty of the late emperor, I often think about it. The late emperor often taught me that giving birth to a son should be like Lord Wu! Let me be more like Lord Wu, be friendly with Lord Wu, and never waste the work of the predecessors .I also asked me to rejuvenate the world with Wu, conquer the north and rebel against Wei, and restore peace to the world.”

As he spoke, Liu Chan squeezed out tears, wiped them slightly with his clothes, and said sadly: "It's a pity that Mrs. Sun was so strong that she died with the late emperor. I hate that I can't repay the kindness of nurturing. If there is any disrespect, I hope everyone will not blame it!"

As soon as these words came out, Sun Quan's face suddenly turned cold.Previously, he bullied Liu Chan with his seniority in his words, but Liu Chan pulled him into the same seniority with himself by saying that having a child should be like his own.Finally, the living Mrs. Sun was said to have passed away.

Zhuge Jin cried out secretly, and whispered: "Han Lord, the eldest princess has not passed away."

"Ah!" Liu Chan exclaimed, and asked, "Ge Gong, is it true?"

"Really!" Zhuge Jin replied doubtfully.

Liu Chan patted his legs and sighed, then with a look of rejoicing, he bowed his hands to Sun Quan to apologize, and said, "Master Wu, I didn't notice for a while and said nonsense, please don't blame Lord Wu. It's really a great luck for Mrs. Sun to be alive!"

"Oh!" Sun Quan asked suspiciously, "Could it be a mistake?"

Liu Chan nodded slightly, and said slowly: "The misunderstanding is quite deep. When the late emperor passed away, I heard the words of merchants and merchants from Wu. Mrs. Sun was staunch and followed the late emperor into the river to die. I didn't notice it for a while, so I took it seriously. Now I heard Madam Sun is still alive, I am really happy. If Lord Wu agrees, I am willing to take Madam Sun into the Han Dynasty, give her an honorary title, and treat her as a mother."

Sun Quan forced a smile, his sister was so happy in Jiangdong now, how could she be willing to enter the Han Dynasty and become a widow for Liu Bei.

Sun Quan found an excuse and said: "The eldest princess has been ill for a long time, and it is difficult to travel far. I am afraid that it will be difficult to enter Han. Thank you for your kindness."
