"Shui Jing Zhu" records: On the right bank of the river is the ancient city of E County. To the north of E County, the right side of the river reaches Fankou.

The first sentence of Li Daoyuan's annotation is "Old Fan Chuye".

The position where Sun Quan stood at this moment was directly north of E County, Jiangxia.

On top of Fanshan Mountain, what he could see was the entrance to Fanshan Mountain - Fankou!

Between the rolling mountains, this is the intersection of rivers and lakes. Because it is the dry season, there is only a clear river flowing from the side.

Looking across the river, there are rolling mountains on the opposite side.

If it develops according to the original trajectory of history, Sun Quan will change the "E County" here to "Wuchang" five years later, and in August six years later, the King of Wu City will be rebuilt on the basis of Seoul.

Due to the beautiful scenery, steep terrain, and convergence of rivers, this place...is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The sound of hoofbeats was like rain, and the two riders were galloping along the mountain road, one behind the other. The horses were like dragons, and the people were like brocades. One was long and the other was young, and the bridles and saddles were carved. It was rare that their riding skills matched each other, and they were extremely superb.

The young man who was no more than thirteen or fourteen years old rushed to Xingxing, waved his horsewhip, and galloped into Fanshan Mountain. The dust and smoke stirred up, and the horse's hooves rolled, but a lot of dust was stained on the luxurious clothes.

Look clearly at this young man's cheeks.

Sun Quan showed an incredible expression and sighed softly.

"It's him..."

This him refers to Zhuge Jin's son, the "beautiful jade from the blue field" and the clever son who "adds words to get a donkey" - Zhuge Ke.

"My son, don't run. This is a mountain. Slow down."

Zhuge Jin reined in the horse's rope.

Zhuge Ke shouted: "Father, hurry up, don't let Wu Hou wait in a hurry!"

He said so, but in fact, Zhuge Ke could not conceal his excitement about leaving Soochow.

He no longer wanted to fight with trapped beasts.

Not long after, Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke came to the mountains.

Sun Quan has been waiting here for a long time.

The two dismounted and saluted Sun Quan. Sun Quan looked at the mountains on the other side and asked, "Does Ziyu know why I chose to summon you here?"

this…

Zhuge Jin's eyes rolled.

Zhuge Ke quickly said: "You know."

Sun Quan looked at Zhuge Ke with great interest and said, "Yuan Xun might as well talk about it."

"Marquis Wu's eyes are always on the mountains opposite, and across a river, the mountains opposite are already the territory of Uncle Liu Huang. Marquis Wu asked his father to walk from Fankou to Xiakou and send his younger generation to Jingzhou to adopt his second uncle!"

Hmm...Sun Quan was slightly startled.

I thought to myself:

——"This son is still as smart as ever. I never thought that Tzuyu would be willing to adopt him!"

Sun Quan thought so in his heart, but asked with a smile.

"Prior to this, Yuan Xun has been my son Sun Deng's companion, but I heard that you two had a dispute. My son Sun Deng ridiculed you that you should eat horse shit, but you retorted that my son should eat eggs. This is

Why?"

"Because horse shit and eggs come from the same place!"

Zhuge Ke answered without thinking.

This answer immediately made Sun Quan burst out laughing.

He looked at Zhuge Jin with some pity, "I never thought that Tzuyu would choose Yuan Xun!"

"Alas..." Zhuge Jin shook his head helplessly, "The eldest son and the younger son, the palms and backs of their hands are full of flesh. I can't bear to part with any of them, but my younger brother has nothing to do, and the adoption is inevitable... Sigh..."

Zhuge Jin sighed continuously.

"Forget it...'Lantian Meiyu' and 'Zhuge Wolong' also complement each other!" Sun Quan sighed with a smile, then turned around and greeted: "Come, sit down!"

So, Sun Quan, Zhuge Jin and his son sat on their knees on mats in the stone pavilion on Mount Fan.

There was a table and a few cups of tea. Sun Quan calmly chatted with Zhuge Jin and his son. He did not mention any business matters for a while. The atmosphere of integrity was lively. A woman appeared at the entrance of the pavilion. She was Sun Quan's concubine Bu Lian.

division.

She brought with her a girl who was thirteen or fourteen years old. The girl was carrying a food box. This girl was Sun Luban, the eldest daughter of Sun Quan and Bu Lianshi, the future famous "Animal Wreck-It King" princess.

Trainer Bu called softly: "Wu Hou!"

Sun Luban shouted: "Dad..."

Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke were startled, and they immediately knelt down dignifiedly, not daring to raise their heads, "Greetings to Madam, to Princess Quan."

Sun Quan's smile visibly faded, "Why are you here?"

Trainer Bu smiled, "I and Lu Ban were originally here to pay homage to General Cheng, but they heard that Marquis Wu had not eaten for a day, so he went up the mountain to deliver some meals. People cannot be resurrected after death, so Marquis Wu still needs to express his condolences."

In fact, Bu Lianshi had just arrived, but Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke arrived first. Bu Lianshi and Sun Luban waited in the carriage for a while and heard their conversation.

While talking, Sun Luban opened the food box, which contained several bowls and some dishes.

Bu Lianshi laid out in front of Sun Quan.

Sun Quan stretched out his hand to signal, and she placed it in front of Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke.

Then the dishes were put on the table. Bu Lianshi smiled slightly and said, "I haven't seen Wu Hou talk so happily for a long time. Thank you Mr. Zhuge and his son for working hard for Wu Hou. I have no other intentions. I happen to be here, so I might as well use it with Wu Hou."

A meal.”

Trainer Bu's voice was soft and his steps were graceful, like a gentle step on the waves. Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke only felt a fragrant breeze blowing by.

But Zhuge Jin was a man of rules and loyal to Sun Quan, so he bowed his head respectfully.

Zhuge Ke, however, was full of energy and couldn't help but want to look up at Trainer Bu.

However, Zhuge Jin immediately grabbed him and prevented him from looking at the concubine.

Zhuge Jin said: "It is our duty to share Wu Hou's worries. Thank you madam!"

Zhuge Ke also bowed his head and remained silent.

Sun Quan raised his eyes and looked at Master Bu, "Thank you."

Trainer Bu smiled at him and said, "I will go back first without delaying the discussion between Marquis Wu and Mr. Zhuge."

Sun Quan nodded, not forgetting to smile at his daughter Sun Luban.

Trainer Bu floated away with Sun Luban.

After getting into the carriage, the carriage drove down the mountain.

Sun Luban pursed his lips and said, "This food box is not something my mother wants to send herself. It's obviously my father who asked my mother to send the food box."

"No nonsense..." Trainer Bu showed his index finger.

But Sun Luban was not willing to shut up. Her flexible tongue was twirling in her mouth... As if she was shocked by something, she quickly said: "Dad is using my mother's beauty to test the loyalty of Mr. Zhuge?"

?”

"Still talking nonsense..."

"My daughter remembered that in the past... some storytellers said that Liu Zhen, a great talent in the north, was deposed and sent to the border because he looked down on Concubine Zhen. My father also wanted to do the same... try Mr. Zhuge..."

"Keep talking nonsense...I won't allow you to go hunting tomorrow." Trainer Bu opened his mouth.

"Okay, okay..." Sun Luyu reluctantly closed his mouth.

However, once a girl's interest is opened, how can she hold it back? "Dad must be suspecting that Mr. Zhuge has other thoughts, right? If he has other thoughts, he will definitely not pay special attention to the etiquette of the emperor and his ministers, and the style of my mother."

How can we not use Concubine Zhen? Who can resist not raising his eyes to take a look? "

"You kid..."

"I won't say anything anymore." Sun Luyu covered his mouth and said that he wouldn't say anything anymore, but he still opened his mouth, "The person next to Mr. Zhuge... is his son, right? The Zhuge Ke who 'adds words to make a donkey'."

The topic changed.

Trainer Bu sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that Mr. Zhuge would choose him to be adopted by Zhuge Kongming..."

"What's so great about him?" Sun Luyu was arrogant.

As a woman, she has always been dissatisfied with men.

"Alas..." Trainer Bu sighed. He knew that if he didn't speak clearly today, his daughter might not give up, so he immediately said calmly, "Didn't you hear your father's question? This little Zhuge Ke

Even at such a young age, he answers questions fluently and perfectly!"

Sun Luban puffed up his cheeks, showing disdain.

Trainer Bu continued: "Last year at your father's birthday party, he gave your father a horse as a gift, but he deliberately cut the horse's ears. The ministers laughed at him and said, 'Although horses are beasts, they are from heaven.

It has gained spirituality, but if you hurt its ears, doesn't this damage your humanity?' What do you think Zhuge Ke said?"

"How to say?"
