Asura Fields Everywhere in Soochow

When the picture appeared in front of Lu Ji again, it was already above the river.

Lu Ji looked around from the perspective of a bystander.

The surface of the river is misty and misty, and the green mountains on both sides of the river are moving away one by one with the boat, and the sound of apes and birds can be heard endlessly. Judging from the situation, it seems to be on the river in Liyang.

In the dream, he was sick again, leaning against the side of the cabin with a pale complexion, watching the scrolls of mountains and rivers disappearing before his eyes in a daze.

At this time, besides him, there were Lu Xun, Gu Shao, and Yu Fan in the cabin.

Yu Fan wears a crimson headband and has a beard all over his face. He is now 43 years old.He stroked his beard and was very happy to see his old friend, "...I used to lead Xicao under Liu Ziyang and Prime Minister Liu, but now Shouchun is obviously in trouble, so I resigned from office and returned to Kuaiji. Unexpectedly here It was a pleasure meeting you all.”

In many lifetimes, Lu Ji and Yu Fan were close friends, but in this lifetime, because he had never been an official, the two did not have many pleasantries.

Gu Shao, on the other hand, seemed to have an old relationship with him, sitting next to him, and became very friendly with him, "Although Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang are talented, they are flattering and disloyal[1], and Zhongxiang has always been upright, so it's hard to be with him." For the team."

Sitting opposite them, Lu Xun said calmly, "Liu Ye was recommended by the Empress Dowager Sun. From the behavior of the Empress Dowager, one can know a little about the habits of Liu Ye, Gan Ning and the Queen Mother's followers."

"No way, no way."

Because of his former boss Liu Ye, Yu Fan also got some "Queen Dowager's party feathers" to some extent, so he wanted to say a few words for Sun Wu, "The Queen Mother Sun is still very skilled, otherwise she would not be able to recruit those many talents for the Zhong family. What's more, the reform of the official tax system, the implementation of the farming system, and the development of commerce in the past few years have not involved the Queen Mother? The Queen Mother is actually a heroine. These heretics are nothing more than..."

As soon as he spoke, Gu Shao immediately pushed him, and then gestured in Lu Ji's direction with his eyes.

As we all know, Lu Ji is the "masculinity" that Empress Dowager Sun has been most obsessed with recently, and he is the new favorite who would rather offend the gentry of Wu Jun to win back.

Lu Ji by the side of the cabin was dressed in white uniform, although he looked sick, he was extremely beautiful.There was no emotion on his expression, but his eyes drifted out of the window, he didn't know what he was looking at, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Even though he doesn't seem to care too much, Gu Shao is still afraid that his uncle will be embarrassed.He quickly changed the subject and chatted with the other two about the changes in the palace.

"I originally thought that the Sun brothers and sisters were very close, but after hearing the rumors recently, I realized that the Sun family was actually divided into two factions. Zhou Yucheng Pu led the general's faction, and Liu Ye Gan Ning led the queen mother's faction. They had long been Disagreement, dislike of each other, no wonder General Sun wants to kill relatives righteously."

Speaking of this, Yu Fan put away the embarrassment just now, shook his head and said, "How can you trust the rumors in the market? I think Prime Minister Liu believes that this is Emperor Zhong's divorce plan."

This statement was new, and both Lu Xun and Gu Shao became interested in this topic immediately.

As a result, the boat swayed gently on the river, and in the small world of three feet square in the cabin, several people began to grope for the latitude and longitude of the Shouchun court's political struggle four hundred miles away.

Lu Xun sorted out the recent clues in his mind, and said: "General Sun was covered in blood when he returned to Shouchun. And a passer-by pointed out that General Sun took the pill-like thing from the Queen Mother and swallowed it, and then slashed at the Queen Mother. Now that there are witnesses, this brother and sister can't be faked."

"That's the point, so it's extremely suspicious." Yu Fan pointed his finger in the air, and said, "General Sun is the best at wielding guns among all kinds of weapons in the world. Why did he bring a sword when he saw the Queen Mother? Besides, when General Sun returned to Shouchun , unarmed, saw neither sword nor □□..."

"Zhongxiang's words are too forced." Gu Shao shook his head at him, "Jiangxia is thousands of miles away from Shouchun, if General Sun comes back, the sword will naturally be lighter than the gun. As for why there is no sword - just throw it away after the murder .”

The previous argument was overthrown, and Yu Fan said again: "Then, you and I both know how good General Sun is at martial arts. You can't kill a woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken, and you have to save her back to the palace. middle?"

Speaking of this, Gu Shao frowned, feeling puzzled, "...Maybe General Sun underestimated the enemy for a while, or maybe his subordinates showed mercy."

Yu Fan knocked on the table in the cabin with his fingers, and said further: "I won't talk about this weapon, nor about General Sun's martial arts. On that day, when someone accused General Sun of treason and wanted to kill the Queen Mother, the emperor also said that he would Wait until the queen mother wakes up to make a decision. But he was about to finish his words, and he secretly killed General Sun, what is it if he is not a guilty conscience?"

Lu Xun crossed his arms, leaned on the cabin in a leisurely manner and said, "General Sun's death is indeed strange, but it may not be the work of Yuan Yao. Since there are witnesses, he can be convicted. If he wants to kill Sun anyway General, why bother to make a decision after the queen mother wakes up—unless he is sure that after the queen mother wakes up, he will definitely identify General Sun as the murderer."

There was a silence in the cabin.

After this conversation, Gu Shaoning frowned for a long time, feeling foggy, "Your words are all reasonable... How many emperors in the world are willing to be puppets? Even the emperor of the Han Dynasty passed the imperial edict six years ago, let alone Yuan Yuan. The emperor Yao is now in his thirties, and he is afraid that he has had enough of the Sun family's monopoly... If the queen mother wakes up and really identifies General Sun, the Zhong family may really change the world. These two are powerful people, and the inner After a fight, Yuan Yao might really be able to gain power in one fell swoop—but if that's what he wants, the death of General Sun will ruin his business."

Lu Xun slightly raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of sarcasm in the raised eyes, "Exactly. Now that General Sun has died in the palace, no matter whether it is the governor Zhou Yu or the left guard Sun Quan, I'm afraid they can't let it go. If Yuan Yao killed General Sun, then he really dug his own grave."

After finishing speaking, the other two pondered for a while, but they couldn't get out of the fog.

Really unable to sort out the reason, Gu Shao gave up on himself and said: "A gentleman does not stand on a dangerous wall. Traveling on a rainy night and committing danger alone, the Queen Mother Sun probably did it on her own."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was thunder in his ears.A few people looked out of the window, the sky was getting dark gradually, and a little rain fell, creating circle after circle of ripples on the surface of the river.

Lu Ji, who hadn't spoken all this time, was still looking at the direction of Shouchun in the distance. It started to rain here, and it seemed that the sky was covered with dark clouds over there.

After watching for a long time, his eyes fell back to the cabin, and he said weakly: "Do you know when General Sun died?"

Unexpectedly, he would speak suddenly, and the few of them didn't recover for a while.

After thinking for a while, Lu Xun replied, "It's about the fifth day of May."

"...The fifth day of May? It turns out that the person who took the medicine is not the real Sun Ce..."

While Lu Ji was muttering, the whole world suddenly went dark and fell into nothingness in an instant. This long dream finally came to an end.
