Zhou Yu really wanted to teach Sun Shangxiang a lesson.
Zhou Yu suppressed his anger.
He said, "Princess, you are mistaken! Xiao Qiao's concern for her elder sister's safety is truly touching! I only humbly request that you and Lady Da Qiao listen to a word from Zhou Yu!"
The Sanjiang Estuary is in danger! A great battle is imminent, and swords have no eyes. With the ladies and princesses here, it's really unnecessary for our soldiers to have to spare time to protect you.
Going into battle to kill the enemy has always been a man's job.
Even if you're worried, go home and wait for my news, okay? I, Zhou Yu, swear to heaven that I will drive Cao Cao away and make him roll back to the north!
No one dares to covet our sister-in-law!
No one dares to covet our Lady Qiao, okay?
You should all just go back obediently!
Poor Zhou Yu, he was practically begging for mercy.
But neither Sun Shangxiang nor Qiao Jingjing.
Qiao Jingjing phrased her words tactfully, saying she would wait for her sister to arrive before making any further statements.
"What if Xiao Qiao and I miss each other on the way? I might as well wait for her here."
This made Zhou Yu even more anxious.
The news that the two famous beauties of Jiangdong, the two Qiao sisters, the dashing and beautiful Xu Shi, and the pretty and lovely little princess Sun Shangxiang had gathered at the confluence of the three rivers finally spread throughout both banks of the Yangtze River.
Cao Cao, standing on the other side of the water, grinned widely, unable to contain his laughter.
Cao Cao seemed to see one of his hands gently reaching across the river, and with one claw, he pulled Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao over.
From then on, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao lived with him at the Bronze Sparrow Terrace. Xiao Qiao danced for him, and Da Qiao cooked delicious food for him.
Of course, there could also be the cute and playful little girl Sun Shangxiang. She can dance with a sword, so let her dance with a sword against the wind on the high platform of Tongquetai.
From then on, regardless of whether Sun Quan was alive or dead, they never dared to pull him again.
Ah, what a beautiful scene!
Cao Cao drank wine while hosting a grand banquet for his officials.
He then composed a poem.
How wonderful!
Everything is so beautiful, all that's left is to wait for the northwest wind.
Whenever the northwest wind blew, Cao Cao would take advantage of the wind and launch a fire attack on Zhou Yu, burning Zhou Yu's troops at the Three Rivers Estuary to the ground.
Cao Cao was dreaming.
After seeing these beautiful women at the confluence of the three rivers, Zhuge Liang fell into deep thought.
For Zhuge Liang, a self-made scholar who had just emerged from obscurity and had no connections, the experience of these two days in Jiangdong was like a rollercoaster ride.
Zhuge Liang deeply realized that Jiangdong was a place where hidden talents were everywhere, just like a dragon's den or a tiger's lair.
Liu Yuzhou, the Imperial Uncle Liu, was a member of the Han imperial family with a weak foundation, and was far inferior to the Eastern Wu.
But since Zhuge Liang chose the relatively weak Liu Bei, he was determined to serve him diligently.
The fact that Zhuge Liang was able to help Liu Bei, who had nothing, achieve great things proves his ability.
Zhuge Liang would not back down.
He will steadfastly follow Liu Bei and continue down this long and arduous path to dominance.
But there needs to be a method!
If there's a shortcut, that's even better.
Zhuge Liang recalled the young and beautiful face of Lady Da Qiao.
What a beautiful woman!
It's beautiful.
She's the kind of beauty that you'll never forget after just one glance.
And she is capable and sharp.
It's no exaggeration to say that she is the best wife.
Rumors circulated that Cao Cao missed Lady Da Qiao so much that he couldn't eat or sleep.
It is said that after Sun Ce died, Cao Cao wrote love letters to Lady Da Qiao every few days.
But for some reason, Lady Da Qiao remained calm.
Even with Cao Cao's talent and immense strength, he couldn't break through Lady Qiao's unwavering resolve.
Zhuge Liang then thought of Liu Bei.
Alas, his lord is so pitiful.
There's an old saying: "Brothers are like limbs, wives are like clothes!" And lo and behold, it's proven prophetic. Even brothers who run away can find their way back. Take Guan Yu, for example. He surrendered to the Han Dynasty but not to Cao Cao. Even though he was enfeoffed as the Marquis of Shouting in Cao Cao's camp, he still managed to cross five passes and defeat six generals to return to Liu Bei's side. That truly shows the close bond between brothers.
But what about Liu Bei's wife? Liu Bei has only one biological son, A Dou, who is only three months old, and an adopted son, Liu Feng, who is about ten years old and works as a errand boy in the army.
Liu Bei's two wives, Lady Gan and Lady Mi, passed away peacefully, and their remains are now lost to history.
To be honest, Liu Bei was a widower, and Da Qiao was a widow.
Zhuge Liang thought about it in a lewd way and realized that they were actually quite a good match.
Zhuge Liang pondered in his heart:
If Liu Bei, a widower with only a noble title but no power or territory, could marry Da Qiao, a young, beautiful widow with power, territory, and wealth.
Isn't that a match made in heaven?
Isn't this the most direct shortcut right in front of Liu Bei?
It can reach the heavens in an instant.
From then on, life was smooth sailing.
If Liu Bei were to marry Da Qiao, then the entire Jiangdong region would have to call Liu Bei "elder brother".
The eldest sister-in-law's man must be the eldest brother!
Zhuge Liang was very pleased with himself and began to write a letter to Liu Bei.
In his letter, Zhuge Liang advised Liu Bei to make a show of resisting Cao Cao, but not to be so stubborn. He suggested that Liu Bei could visit the Sanjiang Estuary in his spare time.
He will find his perfect match at the confluence of the three rivers!
Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Bei was a gentleman who valued morality and righteousness.
Liu Bei is 49 years old this year. He is no longer young, but he is of impeccable character. I guess he still wants to marry another beautiful wife.
