Volume 3 Chapter 227 Fish-flavored Shredded Pork (7)
In history, Zhou Yu died of illness in the fifteenth year of Jian'an, at the age of thirty-six, leaving behind two sons and one daughter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info And Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao got married in Jian'an for four or five years, so it can be inferred that when Zhou Yu died, Zhou Yu's three children were not very old, and the eldest of them was at most ten years old when Zhou Yu died.
And the current situation is that when Lu Ren was still fooling around in Jingzhou in the eighth year of Jian'an, and had some dealings with Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao had not yet created villains. According to the results of talking with Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao at that time, Lu Ren learned that Zhou Yu was too busy at that time, and basically had little time to work hard with Xiao Qiao to make a villain.
But it's right to think about it, Sun Quan took over Sun Ce's class in the fifth year of Jian'an, and the Sun Group at that time was really crumbling in Jiangdong, relying on Zhang Zhao in terms of internal affairs, and relying on Zhou Yu to come to the town in terms of military affairs, and then Zhou Yu in order to help Sun Quan support the field, of course, he was very busy all day long, and he had to lead troops to fight at every turn, how could Zhou Yu have time to work hard with Xiao Qiao to make villains?
Another one, but this is Lu Ren's own very evil idea...... Xiao Qiao was only fifteen years old when he married Zhou Yu in the fifth year of Jian'an, but that was the virtual age commonly used by the ancients, so it is accurate to say that Xiao Qiao at that time was actually only fourteen years old, and some Dongdong had not yet matured. The original history of Zhou Yu's eldest son is not clear when Lu Ren was born, but this eldest son died early, and the trick has a lot to do with Xiao Qiao's physiology is not fully mature, which leads to the poor physical condition of the first child.
So it was at that time that Lu Ren unintentionally talked to Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao about this knowledge from Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao. Although Lu Ren was unintentional, and occasionally thought about it afterwards, he also thought that Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao would not take what he said seriously, but Lu Ren belittled the influence of the "immortal master" name on his body.
You must know that Lu Ren did not pretend to be a ghost when he got the title of "Immortal Master" at that time, but used some simple and effective physiological and medical knowledge, so people with a little brain can basically understand that Lu Ren should understand medical science, and Zhou Yu is obviously a reasonable person in this category. So Zhou Yu controlled it for a while, and it wasn't until Xiao Qiao was over twenty years old that he created the villain......
(The above is purely nonsense for the needs of the plot, Xiao Qiao was forty-seven years old when he died in AD223, and he was thirty-two years old in 208 years back to the Battle of Chibi, only two years younger than Zhou Yu.) Here the bottle is directly to Xiao Qiao minus ten years old. ļ¼
No longer nonsense, anyway, the current situation is that Zhou Yu's eldest son Zhou Xun was born in the eleventh year of Jian'an, the second daughter Zhou Che was born in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, and the youngest son Zhou Yin was born in the sixteenth year of Jian'an, which must have been born much later than the original history. In the current 25th year of Jian'an, the three children are 14, 12 and 9 years old. At such an age, it is just right to enter Yizhou Academy to study, but Lu Ren understands that Zhou Yu's arrangement is by no means so simple, and he must have his own intentions.
It's boring to think about, and it's even more useless to guess, so Lu Ren's choice is...... Go straight to it!
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
"Brother Gongjin, you want your three children to study at my Yizhou Academy, what does this mean?"
Still in the old place, Zhou Yu only smiled in the face of Lu Ren's question, and then asked rhetorically: "In Lu Yizhou's opinion, what is Yu's intention in doing this?" ā
Lu Ren said a little angrily: "I think of a lot, but there are some things that can't be guessed." ā
Zhou Yu poured wine for Lu Ren with a smile: "It won't be long before the county lord will recruit all the soldiers, and Yu will also follow the county lord to the north to help in the war." Life and death on the battlefield are unpredictable, if Yu has a case, Yu's widow will have to ask Lu Yizhou to take care of it. ā
Lu Ren's hand that had just picked up the wine glass trembled slightly. After so many years of mixing, where can Lu Ren not hear some hidden words? Zhou Yu's words were to ask Lu Ren to take care of them, but in fact, the implied meaning was...... Hostage.
He shook his head lightly and sighed softly, "Brother Gongjin, you don't have to be like this, right?" Based on your merits to Wu Hou, are you afraid that if you have any accidents, Wu Hou will treat your descendants badly? ā
The implication in the words: Who are you fooling? With your status as Zhou Yu, if you really want to release hostages, it shouldn't be placed here for me, but for Sun Quan. After all, a person like you, although Sun Quan has been cut a little bit of power in recent years, his reputation and prestige are still important figures on the front line in Jiangdong, and he has a lot of Jiangdong military intelligence, so he ran out with his wife and children Sun Quan can really rest assured? If it's just for fun, what if you switch to someone else? Oh yes, Sun Quan is still more at ease with you, Zhou Yu, for this matter.
Just after saying these few words, Lu Ren's heart was secretly happy, because Lu Ren remembered that Sun Quan was also famous for treating the descendants of the heroes in the original history, basically except for a limited number of people, the descendants of the early heroes were almost all treated preferentially and then there was no play. As for why Sun Quan did that, Lu Ren believes that Sun Quan must have his own plans, for example, he doesn't want these gentlemen who rely on the merits of their ancestors to fill his own camp? At least according to historical records, Zhou Yu's second son Zhou Yin has a bit of a gentleman's style.
Regardless of these, it was only said that Zhou Yu smiled after listening to Lu Ren's response: "If you don't make a jade weapon, if you let these three children enjoy Wu Hou's favor because of me, it will only make them useless, so I have always wanted them to learn more skills." It's just that in Jiangdong, everyone spoils and tolerates these three children a lot because of me, which makes them a little arrogant at a young age, and I lack discipline because I am too busy with affairs...... It's not going to go on like this! ā
Lu Ren pouted: "So you're going to throw your three children to me?" I'm not your Jiangdong land here, no one will buy your Zhou Gongjin's face, so your three children have no capital to rely on? ā
Zhou Yu said: "Yes! Let them suffer a little, and file the arrogance in them. ā
Lu Ren shook his head at this time: "Brother Gongjin, it's really tiring to talk to you like this. Come on, I, Lu Ren, am a rough person, and I don't bother to play these twists and turns with you anymore. Let's be honest, do you think I'll believe what you just said? ā
Zhou Yu also shook his head: "I knew it would be like this." However, Lu Yizhou, after I went out with the county lord, it is true that my wife and children want to ask you to take care of them, and it is also true that I hope my children can go to school in Yizhou. ā
Lu Ren said: "I know this, I just don't understand why you don't put your wife and children there in Wu Hou." A character like you came to me with his wife and children, is Wu Hou really so relieved? Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to drive a wedge between you and Wu Hou, it's just that a character like you is too important, and your current behavior is too unreasonable. ā
It is not unreasonable for Lu Ren to say this, because in that era, when the generals led their troops to the battle, they basically wanted to put their wives and children with the lord. Nominally, he asked the sovereign to take care of him on his behalf, so that the generals could fight outside with peace of mind, but in fact, he was placed as a hostage with the sovereign.
Where could Zhou Yu not understand this? At that moment, Zhou Yu smiled proudly again: "Yu has no second heart for Wu Hou, how can Wu Hou not know?" In contrast, when it came to Shi Yu to go to the north with the county lord to help in the war, it was under the name of Lu Yizhou, and Lu Yizhou, would you be completely at ease with Zhou Yu? In order to make Lu Yizhou feel at ease, Wu Hou and Yu had no choice but to make this decision. Lu Yizhou, this is really Zhou Yu's big truth. ā
Lu Renxin said Okay, I have to lift a stone and shoot myself in the foot. has been saying that Sun Quan is not at ease with you Zhou Yu, but you Zhou Yu has been involved in me. But Zhou Yu's words were not wrong, and he took a bunch of Jiangdong soldiers to Liaoxi to help in the war, in other words, he became Lu Ren's temporary worker, and according to the custom, Lu Ren had to detain Zhou Yu's wife and children as hostages.
Thinking of this, Lu Ren couldn't help but shake his head again and again, Zhou Yu saw Lu Ren's appearance, and he was afraid that Lu Ren would be embarrassed, so he immediately handed Lu Ren the steps: "That's the end of these words, in short, please believe that Zhou Yu is." Speaking of which, Zhou Yu's expedition with the county lord this time is related to the face of the entire Jiangdong, so he doesn't dare to be careless. In addition, I really want to take this opportunity to let my three uncompetitive children learn some skills in Yizhou College, instead of relying on what I left behind to live their lives in the future. ā
Lu Ren said: "You really want your child to study in my Yizhou College so much?" ā
Zhou Yu nodded: "Not bad!" In fact, Lu Yizhou, you should also know that your Yizhou College is now famous all over the world, and in addition to the traditional (Confucian) scriptures, there are many skills for students to choose from. It's like ......"
At this point, Zhou Yu paused, and then continued with a smile: "It's like your musicology department here, it's really exciting." It's a pity that I'm a little older, otherwise I would have wanted you to come here to refine the rhythm. ā
Zhou Yu said so, but Lu Ren looked at Zhou Yu quite playfully at this moment. Seeing that Zhou Yu finished speaking, Lu Ren laughed maliciously: "Brother Gongjin, you are only a generation of famous generals after all, but you are by no means a politician, so you are not as strict as those politicians...... You just said you leaked your mouth. ā
Zhou Yu was stunned and asked, "What does Lu Yizhou mean by this?" ā
Lu Ren already had a little bottom in his heart at this time, so he smiled and raised his glass again: "Okay, what you said to me before was actually the truth, but there are still some things that have not been said." So, you only hide it from me but don't deceive it......"
After saying this sentence "only concealment but no deception", Lu Ren's heart felt a chill, and his heart said how could he make himself so uncomfortable when he said such things to a big man? And this sentence should be where I have heard it. After searching the memories in the depths of his mind again, Lu Ren remembered that this line was what Long Ming said to Ling Bo in "The Five Prequels of Sword and Fairy", and then Lu Ren felt cold again and goosebumps all over his body.
However, Lu Ren stopped talking, and he still looked thoughtful, which made Zhou Yu on the other side a little uneasy. Frowning and looking at Lu Ren, Zhou Yu still couldn't help but ask, "What does Yu have to hide from Lu Yizhou?" ā
Lu Ren came back to his senses, and then smiled at Zhou Yu and said, "Okay, don't pretend." You said before that your children are a little arrogant, but I've seen them all, and they don't seem to be as bad as you say, at least you can see that you and your wife actually discipline your three children well. So, if I'm not mistaken, one of your three children will go to the music department to study, that's for sure, but one of them will definitely find a way to study another subject, and it's something that Wu Hou has always wanted to learn. ā
"......" Zhou Yu didn't speak this time.
Lu Ren smiled again: "What?" Still trying to hide it from me? Then I'll just say, do you want your child to take this opportunity to go to Yizhou Academy to see if they can learn gunpowder technology? ā
"This ......"
Lu Ren waved his hand: "Actually, I should have thought of it a long time ago." Since the invasion of foreign races in the Western Regions, I have supported a large number of artillery pieces to Liu Bei and Lao Cao, and there is no movement against you Jiangdong. And these things are all big killers on the battlefield, wait until Liu Bei and Lao Cao...... Oh yes, Lao Cao is gone, and now Xiao Cao is in charge. Anyway, after these two families have settled the alien races in the Western Regions and the northern nomads, if they turn around and use these things against you Jiangdong, your Jiangdong will suffer a lot. ā
Zhou Yu saw that Lu Ren had already said this, so he was silent for a while, and then nodded to Lu Ren and said, "In the end, I still haven't been able to hide it from you." Lu Yizhou, don't say secret words in front of the Ming people, if you really wait until Liu Bei and Cao Pi turn around and use artillery to deal with our Jiangdong navy, our Jiangdong navy will not be able to bargain.
"Not to mention anything else, the naval battle between you and Wu Hou more than ten years ago, to this day, Wu Hou and our Jiangdong staff will still be in a cold sweat when they think about it. How many ships did you ship at that time? Forty? Fifty? Just ordered the boat, but it simply defeated Wu Hou's 30,000 naval army. What's more important is that you were not strong at that time, you were already able to do this, if it was changed to the current Cao Pi and Liu Bei...... Let's put it this way, as long as Cao Pi builds more than 100 warships loaded with artillery and shoots at our Jiangdong naval army, our Jiangdong naval army will be defeated by Cao Pi if it can't even get close to the edge. And with Cao Pi's national strength after inheriting Cao Pu, do you think he can't do this kind of thing? ā
Lu Ren smiled: "Of course it can be done." And as far as I know, whether it's Cao Pi or Liu Bei, in addition to the artillery that I got from me, I also managed to catch some artillery soldiers of the Western Regions, so I have mastered some relevant knowledge, so now Cao Pi and Liu Bei are already trying to imitate it, only you Jiangdong are staying out of the matter, but there is no movement. ā
