    "Fortunately, my lord has prepared this will in advance, otherwise we, Soochow, would inevitably have a civil strife!"

    At the same time, inside Sun Quan¡¯s house.  Sun Quan couldn't stop crying, with blood and tears in his eyes. His sister-in-law, Mrs. Qiao, was also crying beside her, but she went to persuade Sun Quan.  Sun Quan cried very sadly, without any hypocrisy.

    "Brother, please rest in peace. Soochow is in my hands. I will be my Sun family and establish the imperial hegemony!!"

    Sun Quan roared hysterically in his heart, a trace of strong ambition flashed through his red eyes.

    The next day, after Sun Quan got ready, he met with the officials of Soochow in the lobby.  Zhang Zhao saw that Sun Quan was haggard and there were tears on his face, so he quickly bowed down and said.

    "This is not the time for the general to cry. It is better to attend to the funeral while managing military and state affairs."

    Sun Quan put down his sad face and looked calm. He thanked all the ministers one by one, and then ordered his younger brother Sun Kuang to attend to the funeral.  A group of civil and military officials from Soochow immediately paid their respects and congratulated him.  Sun Quan took over the seal and ribbon from Zhang Zhao and officially ascended to the throne of Jiangdong.

    But it was said that Sun Quan was born with a big mouth, blue eyes and a purple beard, and a strange face, which made him look like an emperor.  In the minds of Zhang Zhao and other counselors, they couldn't help but think of a rumor a few years ago.  Let us also say that when the Han Dynasty envoy Liu Wan entered Wu, he met all the Kunzhongs of the Sun family. They were all extraordinary, but he only valued Sun Quan in particular, and he once had words with others.  When I looked at the Sun brothers, I saw that although each of them was talented and talented, they all failed to achieve success.  However, Zhongmou's appearance is majestic and his bones are very strong. He is a sign of great nobility and he has a long life. If Jiangdong is ruled by him, he may be able to build an emperor's business, which is not impossible.

    Sun Quan inherited Sun Ce¡¯s will and took charge of Jiangdong affairs. People in Jiangdong gradually became more stable. Sun Quan was cautious in doing things, recognized talents and put them to use, and handled political affairs more steadily and maturely than Sun Ce.  The counties in Jiangdong gradually stabilized, and the people in Jiangdong saw that Sun Quan was more enlightened than his brother, and they gradually became less worried.

    On the other side, Zhou Yu fought a battle with Cao Cao on the Yangtze River and led his generals back to Wuhui with Sun Ce's coffin.  Along the road, Zhou Yu heard that Sun Quan was extremely sad because of Sun Ce's death, which made him very sad. However, unexpectedly, he was a blessing in disguise, and his madness was cured without treatment.  Now Sun Quan has taken over the affairs of Jiangdong in accordance with the will made by Sun Ce in his early years.  After Zhou Yu learned about this, he did not show any joy. Instead, his face showed a trace of indescribable sadness, and his eyes were dull, as if he had lost his soul.  Lu Meng secretly saw that the tiger's eyes were shining with a dark light. Zhou Yu was extremely talented. If he was suspicious of Sun Quan and wanted to find out, it would not take long to find out the clues, and then investigate them one by one.  By then, most of what Sun Quan has done secretly for many years will be known to Zhou Yu.  For a moment, Lu Meng's mind raced. He wanted to secretly eradicate Zhou Yu, but then he thought that Sun Quan had strictly promised that Zhou Yu was absolutely indispensable in Soochow at this time. He must not harm this person unless he had to.  When Lu Meng thought of this, he stopped the murderous intention in his heart.  Subsequently, Zhou Yu urged his troops to move for several days and rushed to Wu Hui.

    Half a month later, Zhou Yu led his army to the realm of Wuhui. When Sun Quan heard this, his face changed slightly, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, but he strengthened his spirit and spoke to his ministers.

    "Gong Jin has returned, I have nothing to worry about. My lords, hurry up and get ready and follow me to greet Gong Jin!"

    The ministers in Jiangdong listened to the order, and Sun Quan led a group of civil and military personnel ten miles away from Wu County to wait for Zhou Yu.  Until the first watch of the night, there were waves of wind and dust in the distance, flags were fluttering in the wind, and a large army was rushing towards them.  Sun Quan's face condensed, then he looked ecstatic, and he quickly galloped forward, watching the army in front of him rush towards him.  A group of civil and military officials from Jiangdong quickly followed.

    There was a burst of hoofbeats. Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes and saw hundreds of people riding horses in front of him. The first person to rush was Sun Quan, wearing a purple robe, with a big mouth and blue eyes and purple beard.  Zhou Yu's expression kept changing for a while, and finally he sighed secretly and rode towards him. When he was about to approach Sun Quan, he dismounted and knelt down.

    "The guilty minister Zhou Gongjin has met the general!!"

    Sun Ce suddenly reined in his horse, dismounted in a hurry, and helped Zhou Yu up. Tears burst from his eyes and he cried.

    "Gong Jin, Gong Jin. Where is my brother's coffin? Take me there quickly!"

    Zhou Yu¡¯s face darkened, he suppressed the turmoil in his heart, turned around and pointed his hand at a certain position in the army.  When Sun Quan saw it, he looked like he was crazy and ran away in a panic. As he ran, he fell down repeatedly.  When the generals in the army saw this, they got off their horses and came to help him.  Sun Quan seemed to only have eyes for the wooden coffin being carried by the soldiers. He pushed the generals away, ran straight to the wooden coffin, knelt down and cried.

    "Brother, brother!!! Why did you leave me!!! How can Jiangdong be safe and peaceful without you!?"

    Sun Quan cried heartbreakingly, and everyone who listened was moved. Han Dang, Zhou Tai and other generals stood by and comforted him.  But Sun Quan still couldn't stop crying. The soldiers in the army began to cry unconsciously when they heard this.  Zhang Zhao and other civil and military officials came after him and saw Sun Quan crying and worshiping under Sun Ce's coffin. He was heartbroken and grief-stricken. Unconsciously, Zhang Zhao burst into tears and shook his head and sighed.

    "The brotherly bond between the general and the lord is unparalleled."??Think.  The general is indeed a man who values ??love and justice.  "

    After Zhang Zhao finished speaking, all the officials behind him also sighed in agreement.  Zhou Yu listened carefully, his face changing continuously, his eyes closed in pain, and he thought secretly in his heart.  Now it seems that Sun Quan has captured Jiangdong's civil and military ambitions. The skill of this method is really terrifying.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­  Han Dang was so frightened that he quickly ordered military doctors to come and see him.  Sun Quan woke up after a while and started crying again. His eyes were bleeding from crying, his voice was hoarse and he couldn't make a sound.

    Sun Quan cried all night. As the army slowly entered the city, Sun Quan stood beside Sun Ce's coffin and cried non-stop.  When the people in the city saw this, they were all moved and shed tears.  After a while, the armies were settled, Sun Ce's coffin was moved into the Wuhou Mansion, and Sun Kuang took care of the funeral in accordance with Sun Quan's order.

    Three days later, Sun Ce was buried east of Wu Hui.  Sun Quan led the civil and military officials of the Eastern Wu Dynasty, all dressed in their old clothes, to pay homage to the emperor.  Sun Quan knelt down and kowtowed, then he settled down three times and roared sternly.

    "Rest in peace, brother. I will definitely work hard, lead the ministers, and establish the imperial hegemony. I hope that my brother will be protected by God. In my lifetime, I will take the head of the old thief Cao and avenge you, brother!!!"

    "Take the old thief Cao's head and take revenge!!!"

    Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and other veteran generals returned from Changsha and Guiyang respectively. The two veteran generals roared with hatred.  Lu Meng, Ling Tong and other young generals heard this and shouted in agreement.

    "Take the old thief Cao's head and take revenge!!!"

    Sun Ce¡¯s funeral has been handled.  All the ministers in Jiangdong worked hard to fulfill their duties, hoping to avenge themselves as soon as possible.  At this time, Zhou Yu was ill and ignored military and political affairs for days.  One day, Wu Guotai heard about this and came to Zhou Yu's house in person.  When the servant was about to report, suddenly a burst of music came slowly, which was very sad.  Some listeners were moved and burst into tears.  Wu Guotai sighed, told his servants not to disturb him, and then left with the sound of the piano.

    Wu Guotai walked into the backyard of the mansion and saw Zhou Yu sitting in a small pavilion by the lake. His hair was full of green hair flowing in the wind, and he was plucking the strings of the piano, looking like an immortal.  It's just that the sound of Zhou Yu's piano is too sad, and the birds flying in the sky also mourn.

    The strings suddenly broke, and Zhou Yu's ten fingers were all broken. He was bleeding, and red blood dripped on the broken strings.  Wu Guotai walked towards Zhou Yu silently. Zhou Yu's expression was condensed, his eyes were empty and without any color. He stood up slowly and saluted Wu Guotai.  Seeing Zhou Yu's fingers bleeding, Wu Guotai felt very distressed and sighed again.

    "Bo Fu is actually dead, so why would Gong Jin bother to do this to himself?"

    Zhou Yu¡¯s face was pale and his spirit was haggard, as if he had the heroic spirit of Mei Zhouro in the past.  Zhou Yu closed his eyes in extreme pain and asked slowly.

    "Excuse me, mother. I wonder why mother came here?"

    Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were sworn brothers. When they were in Yangzhou in the past, Sun Jian was fortunately able to escape from Yuan Shu with the help of Zhou Yu's design, and then established the foundation of Soochow.  For the Sun family, Zhou Yu is a special existence.  Sun Jian even treated Zhou Yu like a son, and Zhou Yu also regarded Sun Jian and his two wives as his parents.

    Wu Guotai¡¯s expression condensed and he spoke softly.

    "Now is the time when Soochow is employing people. Gongjin, you are the governor of Soochow, how can you stay out of it?"

    "My mother's lesson is correct. It's just that the child is ill and has difficulty attending court to handle political and military affairs."

    Zhou Yu seemed to have guessed Wu Guotai's intention, and immediately used his illness as an excuse.  Wu Guotai looked at Zhou Yu silently and found a trace of complaint flashing in his eyes.  Wu Guotai's body trembled, he let out a long sigh, and suddenly took out a letter from his sleeve and said to Zhou Yu.

    "Gong Jin is extremely talented and intelligent, and he is unparalleled in the world. It is difficult to deceive you about the affairs of the world. I know Gong Jin, and I have resentment towards Zhong Mou for taking over Jiangdong. But this is actually Bo Fu's intention, and I have no secret.  Control. Bo Fu asked me to give this document to you. After you read it, you will know that Bo Fu worked hard. "

    Hearing this, Zhou Yu's face suddenly changed, and his originally empty eyes suddenly shone brightly. He immediately took the document from Wu Guotai's hand and opened it to read.  Zhou Yu's eyes quickly scanned the words in the letter, and his body trembled unconsciously.  It turned out that Sun Ce had learned that Sun Quan had evil intentions towards him many years ago and wanted to seize Jiangdong's foundation.  But Sun Ce did not expose it and allowed Sun Quan to continue pretending to be crazy and acting stupid.  For many years, Sun Ce only hoped that Sun Quan would change his mind one day, put aside his hypocrisy, assist him, and work together as brothers to manage Jiangdong affairs.  But Sun Quan still pretended to be stupid. Only then did Sun Ce know that Sun Quan regarded his brother as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh, hoping that he could get rid of him quickly.  However, Jiangdong was handed over to Sun Ce by his father after all, and Sun Ce did not dare to disobey his father's orders and give Jiangdong to Sun Quan.  And he also knew that Sun Quan's talent was a hundred times better than his own. If one day, his fortune was bad and he would die before his great achievements were accomplished.  Regardless of himWhether the cause of death was related to Sun Quan or not, he hoped that Zhou Yu would try his best to assist Sun Quan, expand Soochow, and help Sun Quan ascend to the throne and unify the country.

    The last few sentences in the letter read like this.

    "Gong Jin, I only hate that my brother is incompetent. My destiny has been exhausted and I can no longer ride the world with Gong Jin. My brother Sun Zhongmou is ten times more talented than me. If I die, he is the only one who can carry forward the Sun family and complete the imperial hegemony.  . My lifelong ambitions will be handed over to Zhongmou, and I hope Gongjin can help me fulfill my legacy."

    After Zhou Yu finished watching, he could no longer hold back the tears he had held back for many days. His tears kept flowing and he roared in pain.

    "Bo Fu's death is here, Gong Jin dares not to use the strength of dogs and horses, and then die!!!"

    When Wu Guotai heard this, his face lit up and he quickly helped Zhou Yu up and said.
