Sun Zhao, the eldest son of the Sun Mansion, is the county chief of the Snowy Region and plays a very important role in the Snowy Region.

Although Sun Zhao had three concubines, he only had one son named Sun Tian.

This strange phenomenon is very similar to the Lin Mansion in Tanzhou.

Mrs. Sun is the mistress of the family, and she personally manages and decides all household chores.

After Mrs. Sun Er's child was inexplicably stillborn a few years ago, her spirit was severely damaged and her temperament changed drastically. Now she likes to eat fast and chant Buddha's name on weekdays, and does not like to fight for things.

Mrs. Sun San is young, fair-skinned and beautiful. She can get along well with the maids and ladies in the mansion. She also loves the children in the mansion very much. However, she has never been able to conceive her own child, and her status is obviously not as good as the previous two ladies.

Every dinner, everyone would gather together in Chongyang Pavilion, the courtyard where Mrs. Sun lived when she was alive, to have dinner together.

Mr. Sun would always drink a few glasses of wine and tell interesting stories about his time in the court. Although the women in the palace do not care about the affairs of the court, the ladies always enthusiastically support them, and Mr. Sun can always speak with enthusiasm and joy.

But recently, the snow area is facing two major problems.

First, the Huns were already at war with their Wu enemies in the west. Pingyang and Xiangcheng fell one after another. Once the Western Region was captured, it would be easy to go straight up to seize the Snowy Region.

The Huns are good at fighting in harsh environments, but Mr. Sun's few soldiers can't stand it at all.

Taking advantage of the tense war in the west, it is reasonable to apply to the emperor to mobilize troops now, and the Shen family of General Liaoyuan, who is protecting the country next door, is very close, so he can stop by to provide support.

But the problem is that Mr. Sun and the barbarians have maintained a long-term arms trading relationship.

Once a fight breaks out and the relationship breaks down, all your money will fall into the ice cave and you won’t be able to fish it out!

Mr. Sun is extremely serious.

Everyone couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This already thorny problem has become even worse - his only son Sun Tian is missing.

After a long time, Mr. Sun finally spoke seriously: "Tian'er was held hostage by the barbarians."

Just a few words scared everyone to their core.

Only the three ladies were so calm and calm that they were incompatible with them.

Conflicts between courtiers are common among politicians. Apart from offending the opponent and easily causing death, there is nothing else.

Mrs. Sun's voice was trembling: "Tian'er wrote a letter to home a few days ago, saying that everything was fine. How could it suddenly fall into the hands of barbarians?"

Mr. Sun shook his head heavily.

With this shake of the head, everyone's faces turned pale with fright.

The third lady calmly took a sip of tea and said, "Poor Tian'er has not yet married a wife, and has not been able to leave a heir for the Sun family. Now that he has fallen into the hands of barbarians, how can he still survive?"

The second lady thought for a while and said: "Why do the barbarians only start from Tian'er? Are they coveting the jade hibiscus offered by the southern border?"

The third lady spooned a bowl of soup for herself and said calmly: "This barbarian always kills with cruel methods and leaves no traces. This time he found someone to tip off our house. It seems that he wants to make a big deal about this matter." , but it doesn’t quite resemble the stupid temperament of the barbarians...could it be someone pretending to be?"

There was a chill behind the eldest lady.

"Third Sister's conclusion is indeed a bit arrogant," the eldest lady followed the third lady's words and took a bite of food for Mr. Sun.

"These barbarians are all uneducated

Beast, you don't know how to kill in a roundabout way, maybe you just want to find an excuse to provoke a war with us! "

Mr. Sun nodded in agreement: "What Madam said is absolutely true."

Then he said angrily: "How cruel!"

When the third lady saw that the master agreed with the eldest lady, she realized that she had lost her etiquette by speaking rashly, so she wisely kept her mouth shut.

Sun Tian was Mrs. Sun's son in her later years, and she doted on him very much. She held it in her hands for fear of breaking, and held it in her mouth for fear of melting. Now that such a big thing has happened, for the sake of dignity, no one appeared panicked, but there was a vague feeling in their hearts. Yue felt something big was about to happen.

"But the message was delivered personally by the barbarian?" asked the second lady.

Mr. Sun shook his head very slowly and said: "This time when my son was kidnapped, the barbarian gang not only brutally killed the entire caravan, but when I sent people to investigate, I found that almost all the people hiding in the caravan were They escaped completely without leaving any trace at all, but I saw with my own eyes the signal left by Tian'er on the table of the winery where they stayed... I guessed that there must have been some signals left by Tian'er before he was caught. The time for free activities can leave us a signal. From this point of view, the person may not have taken Tian'er away by force, but Tian'er left something in his hands... According to Tian'er With his fierceness and cleverness, if there is a chance to escape, he will definitely be able to escape."

The eldest lady was so frightened that she trembled all over: "Kill them all? Kill them all? How cruel! It was indeed done by barbarians. How can a normal person kill his own compatriots like this?"

After hearing this, Mr. Sun felt that it was very reasonable, and the doubts in his heart dissipated a lot.

Mrs. Sun San

Her focus was not on this at all, and her eyes darkened: "The barbarians have already started a war with General Wu in the Western Regions. This time they provoked a war in the north. Maybe they want to fight on multiple fronts. If the barbarians really want to Take action, maybe Tian'er wants to go with the flow, penetrate into the enemy's interior, and cooperate with us inside and outside?"

Master Sun was quietly shocked.

He didn't run away. This really fits that kid's character! Be smart and don’t overestimate your abilities!

The eldest lady's mood fluctuated: "Master, Tian'er is the only species of our old Sun family. We can't just lose it. Don't hesitate anymore. Please quickly report to the Holy Emperor and implore Liaoyuan to send troops to attack quickly! Who are the ambitions of these barbarians? Do you know how big it is! If one of General Wu’s side can’t hold on, they will reach our snowy area, and by then, none of us will survive!”

Mr. Sun is even more in trouble.

His wives don't know what they are doing in private, so they naturally want to fight, but they are still delivering weapons to the barbarians in exchange for real money and silver. If the relationship is frozen, how can they still do this business?

Once the weapons trade is not exposed, the jewelry smuggling side will undoubtedly collapse and the business will be over.

Mr. Sun took a bite of the food and felt that he had no intention of eating. It tasted like chewing wax. He said sadly: "If we really want to take the initiative to provoke a war and the city is full of troubles, we will inevitably start a war in the [-] counties of Beiyou. It is also a traffic fortress, and it may also affect some people." The annual martial arts test...what should we do!"

As soon as these words came out, a look of astonishment flashed in Mrs. Sun San's eyes.

Naturally, she could see that there must be something hidden behind the master's various excuses and worries about this and that.

It's just his only

His son's life is now at stake, and he is still thinking about martial arts? This is not his style at all!

A ridiculous thought emerged from the bottom of her heart - Could it be that the master doesn't want to fight the barbarians? Don’t want to save Sun Tian?

What is the big reason that makes the master put aside his only flesh and blood for the time being?

It's definitely not a trivial matter like a military test... So it's a matter of occupying a traffic fortress? The twelve counties of Beiyou are the key to commercial exchanges between various places. Why is a governor of a state and county so concerned about them? Did he have something transported on this route?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Sun San broke into cold sweat behind her back - could it be related to the jewelry smuggling that caused a lot of commotion some time ago?
