The Three Kingdoms

A deep smile appeared on the corner of Sun Quan's mouth, and he said softly, "Grace is grace. The Sun family has grievances and grievances. If you have a favor, you must repay it. If you have a grudge, you must repay it. I can give you two choices. The first choice, my father is very happy." Be optimistic about you, he wants to recruit you into the Jiangdong Army, and our Jiangdong Army will soon launch a campaign against Kuaiji and Danyang. At this time of employment, I can let my father, a captain of Pingzei with a rank of six hundred stones Let you join the army and treat yourself as a Sima."
Official positions in the Han Dynasty were ranked by stones, and the highest official rank was ten thousand stones, such as Taiwei above the imperial court, Sikong, and generals in the military ranks. , There are also middle two thousand stones, real two thousand stones, two thousand stones... Ordinary prefects are all officials with a rank of two thousand stones.
As for the military rank of Pingzei Xiaowei, there are many miscellaneous lieutenants these days, ranging from four hundred shi to [-] shi.
A Sima is equivalent to Sun Ce's current position, leading a department, at least thousands of people.
"hiss!"
When Xu Sheng heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he involuntarily gasped.
This is the rhythm of ascending to the sky in one step. The official rank of six hundred stones is already equivalent to their county magistrate of Ju County, and should not be higher than their county magistrate. The county magistrate of Ju County is only ranked four hundred stones.
However, after getting excited, Xu Sheng calmed down and was silent for a while, feeling that this official position might be a bit hot to handle. He is just a commoner, and he has such a big position with a small battle. Among the Jiangdong Army, his martial arts skills are superior to his own. There are also many.
"Young Master Quan, Sheng is just a one-year-old man with little talent and learning. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to take on this important task. Sheng is willing to start as a soldier!" Xu Sheng took a deep breath and refused the position with great difficulty.
He knew that although Sun Quan was not very old, he could do what he said. He had been living in the Sun family these days, and he understood some of Sun Quan's status in the Sun family. He was definitely not just a child.
Sun Quan was repaying his life-saving grace, but he absolutely couldn't bear it, otherwise his life in the Jiangdong Army would be difficult in the future, and he still had some sense.
"You're not bad, you're calm enough, and you haven't let the momentary high position go to your head." Sun Quan looked at him and smiled with satisfaction.
When Xu Sheng heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat.He understood that Sun Quan was trying to test his state of mind. If he chose this position, he might lose the Sun family's gratitude for gratitude in the future.
He doesn't need the Sun family to repay the favor, but since he chose to join the Jiangdong army, if the Sun family keeps this kindness, it will be his greatest wealth.
"I'll give you the second choice. I don't have a guard by my side now. Your martial arts are very good." Sun Quan squinted his eyes and said softly: "But you are still young, lack qualifications, and want to gain a foothold in the Jiangdong Army. Just relying on the sword in your hand is not enough. You must know how to deploy troops to be a general. If you don't know the art of war, you can only become a soldier who only knows how to charge, not a general who leads the army. I have everything my father has in my hand Military books, you will be my guard for three years, and you can read these military books at will during these three years, how about it?"
Hearing this, Xu Sheng gritted his teeth and struggled a bit. Sun Quan was right. He only had martial arts and didn’t know how to deploy troops. Sun Quan was a little unwilling to be a guard.
In the end, he stared firmly at Sun Quan's amber eyes, made up his mind, and asked softly, "Only three years?"
"Three years!"
"Learn all the art of war with me?"
"As long as the Sun family has it, you can do whatever you want!"
"Deal!" Xu Sheng felt that he was only 20 years old, and there were many opportunities to make contributions on the battlefield. He still understood the principle of sharpening a knife and chopping firewood.
"Very well, you will live in my yard from now on, and I will have someone tidy up the wing room later. At the end of this corridor is my study room, which contains not only my father's military books, but also my time period. You can read the collected military books at will."
And Sun Quan's little face was secretly laughing. Another stupid and fierce man fell into his hands. With such a big master, at least he can sleep more comfortably in the future.
[Text Chapter 69 Leading the snake out of the hole]
Ever since Sun Jian returned to Wu County with his troops, the atmosphere in Wu County has been a little tense and depressed. Although Sun Jian has done nothing so far, many people understand that Sun Jian will never swallow his breath like this.
His wife and children are in his own territory, and people are assassinated at the door of the house. If Sun Jian doesn't do something, he won't be the mighty Jiangdong tiger who shakes the world. Everyone is waiting for Sun Jian's butcher knife.
This butcher knife seems to be hanging on the necks of countless noble families, making them feel uneasy.
........................
In April, the land of Jiangdong began to rain in spring. For several days in a row, the light rain fell continuously. Amidst the sound of tick-tock, the sky in Wu County was hazy and rainy.
Sun Ce and Sun Hou, the chief steward of the Sun family, walked into Sun Quan's courtyard with somewhat hasty steps. Sun Quan has recovered well these days and can barely stand up. , looking at Chun Yu quietly, his eyes were a little deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Second brother!" Sun Ce's lion-like voice woke him up.
"Brother, Uncle Hou, you are in such a hurry, did you find out?" Sun Quan came back to his senses at this time, looked at the two, his face moved slightly, and asked.
"That's right, young master, this time we investigated the entire Sun family, including the guards, 210 members of the Sun family, and found more than one ghost." The head housekeeper, Sun Hou, said with a bow.
There are not many masters in the Sun family, but the servants and guards add up to a few hundred people. Among them, more than 100 are Sun Hou's confidantes from the Sun Mansion in Changsha. Naturally, there is no problem, and the others are inevitably mixed.
"Let's hear it." Sun Quan turned the wheelchair around with a sneer at the corner of his mouth. What he hated most was the ghost.
"His grandma is an idiot. If you don't check, you won't know. If you check it, you will be shocked." Sun Ce was very angry, and said loudly: "There are a lot of mice hidden in our house. Just check it like this. A dozen or so were found, some from the Gu family, some from the Lu family, some from the Gu family in Nancheng, and the wealthy Fang family in Beicheng..."
"Young master, this is Hou's dereliction of duty. In the future, Hou will be more cautious when recruiting servants!" Sun Hou said with some shame. The Sun family's mansion looks like a rat's nest, and there are so many rats hiding there. .
"This has nothing to do with you. We have not been stationed in Wu County for a long time, and our foundation is not stable. It is very easy for these deep-rooted aristocratic families in Wu County to plant some eyeliner on us, and it is inevitable."
Sun Quan was not surprised. It would be strange if they did not intervene in these aristocratic families. After all, the current Sun family is the master of Wu Jun. There is a trouble in Wu Jun, and they basically start from the Sun family. It is understandable to want to get first-hand information.
Now the question is who is the enemy? Sun Quan looked at Sun Ce and asked, "Have you found someone who spread the news that your mother went to worship Buddha?"
"I interrogated all these spies once, and found him!" Sun Ce looked solemn, with a gloomy murderous look flashing across, and said, "The fact that my mother is going to worship the Buddha was originally a temporary decision. Anyone who knows Not much, it was leaked by a woman in the mother's courtyard."
"Where is her background?"
"A local gentry from Wu County, the Zhang family. This Zhang family has a good family background. There are tens of thousands of mu of fertile land outside the city and several farms. The head of the Zhang family is Zhang Chu. Zhang Chu's father is Mrs. Zhang. This old man used to be Xiapi Juncheng during Hengdi's reign, and now Mrs. Zhang is still there, so he has a lot of influence in Zhang's family in Wujun." Sun Ce said coldly, full of murderous intent.
"The Zhang family?" Sun Quan narrowed his eyes.
There are also three, six, and nine classes of powerful families. The four largest families in Jiangdong have a history of hundreds of years. They have profound family knowledge and have been passed down from generation to generation. .
The local gentry, which is a representative group of the land and population, holds the local land and population tightly, and the land and population are the foundation for their survival.
"Zhang Chu, the thief Cao of Wu County, I asked Gaojun Cheng. Xu Gong had a good relationship with Zhang Chu when he was the captain of Wu County in Wu County." Sun Ce continued.
"Did that woman explain anything else? Let's listen to it." Sun Quan rubbed his little head, and got involved with the local gentry. This matter is much more complicated, and I am afraid it is not just the Zhang family.
"This woman is just a pawn, she doesn't know much." Sun Ce shook his head and said.
"By the way, when I was interrogating her with the eldest son just now, I heard what she said. In the past few days, her master has arranged another mission for her, asking for the eldest son's itinerary." Hou Bo thought for a while, and hurriedly the way.
"Brother?" Sun Quan glanced at Sun Ce, his eyes widened, and a green glow flickered in his eyes: "She wants the whereabouts of the elder brother? It seems that this Xu Gong is not willing to give up. He didn't kill me, so he hit the elder brother with his idea." Now, is this immortality?"
He thought that with the current situation in Wu County, Xu Gong should stop for a while, but he didn't expect to be in such a hurry.
"Do you want to deal with me? They came just in time, and I was worried that I didn't find them." Sun Ce snorted coldly, and the killing intent in his eyes condensed.
"Hou Bo, you have to do something." Sun Quan was silent for a while, then he had a flash of inspiration, looked at the housekeeper, and said.
"My lord, please tell me!" Hou Bo said with a bow.
"Go and release that woman, and ask her to go back and report to her master, saying that the eldest brother has initially obtained evidence of the Gu family's thieves, and will go to the Gu family tonight to meet the old master Gu!"
Sun Quan's thoughts were much more meticulous than before, and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said: "Tell her, if she does this well, the previous things will be wiped out, and she will still be a member of the Sun family. The Sun family will settle the matter for her, but if it cannot be done, I will let her whole family be buried with the guards of the Sun family who died in the temple."
This woman is just a pawn, Sun Quan doesn't care, what he cares about is whether Xu Gong can be lured out
"promise!"
Uncle Hou felt a slight chill in his heart. He felt that Sun Quan, who had recovered his life, was becoming more murderous. He nodded quickly, and then walked out quickly to complete the task Sun Quan had given him.
