"That's enough, that's enough. Since I'm in this family, I have to think about it. The family and the country are one. I can't accept your constant worship. My mother is still here. If you can believe what I say, I'll be very happy."
Qiao Jingjing was telling the truth.
Sun Quan is the future emperor.
The strategies and techniques of emperors are not mastered in a day.
Serving a ruler is like serving a tiger; Qiao Jingjing simply wanted to live a peaceful and stable life.
As long as Sun Quan and she are on the same side.
Cao Cao shouldn't even think about bullying her family.
No one else in this family should even think of humiliating her.
It's good enough that she can do what she likes.
Therefore, Sun Quan had to support Qiao Jingjing's trip.
The matter has been agreed upon.
Qiao Jingjing has already set off.
Wu Jing, the prefect of Danyang, suddenly fell seriously ill.
Sun Quan decided to send his third brother, Sun Yi, to take over Danyang and appoint him as the governor of Danyang.
Sun Yi was about to take office as he spoke.
Xu packed her bags, bid farewell to her mother-in-law, Madam Wu, and others, and accompanied her husband to Danyang.
In the rush of the incident, Xu didn't even have time to ask her sister-in-law Qiao Jingjing who had done the wrong thing to her husband Sun Yi back in Lujiang City.
Even with Qiao Jingjing in front of her, Xu Shi didn't dare to ask.
Regarding that matter, Qiao Jingjing herself didn't actually know who it was.
She was bewildered when Sun Yi stuffed her into a room, supposedly as a gift for Sun Ce, but Sun Yi came after drinking.
This only shows that there are spies around Sun Yi.
But back then, Qiao Jingjing's relationship with the Sun brothers was not nearly as close as it is now.
On her way to Yuhang, Qiao Jingjing heard about Sun Yi's appointment to take up his post in Danyang.
Qiao Jingjing recalled the story in the Records of the Three Kingdoms about the Sun family brothers, all of whom had short lives, except for the second brother, Sun Quan, who lived a long and prosperous life.
In addition to preparing some gifts for the third son and his wife, Qiao Jingjing also gave them a simple piece of advice: Be careful in everything you do.
When Xu received her sister-in-law's short letter, she could only feel a mix of emotions.
He replied, instructing Qiao Jingjing to be careful in everything:
"Take care, sister-in-law, and don't overwork yourself!"
Given Qiao Jingjing's current status, she doesn't need to do everything herself.
During her southern tour, she was mainly responsible for enjoying the scenery.
Sun Shangxiang was responsible for playing with her, racing horses with her, and catching fish with her.
As for the important matters, Lu Xun, Zhuge Jin, Bu Zhi, Liu Ji, and others handled them wherever they went.
It went very smoothly.
At least for now.
This area was already rich in grain, and after inspecting the surrounding area for a hundred miles, a considerable amount was stockpiled.
There are plenty of forests in Kuaiji Mountain, large tracts and large tracts. The best timber is cut down quickly and transported to Wu County and Jingkou.
Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin had already figured out which mountain held the ore.
The workers took the explosives, blasted a hole, and began mining.
Sun Shangxiang loved these kinds of days.
Having lived a life of privilege for over a decade, she had no idea that when men went out to do business, besides fighting bloody battles like her older brothers, they also experienced this sense of accomplishment in giving orders.
Sun Shangxiang clapped her hands:
"I've made up my mind! When I get back, I'll ask my second brother for an official position. I want to be... a patrol officer. If there are bandits, I'll tie them up and kill them. On other days, I'll cut down the trees on the mountain to build houses, boats, and arrowheads. Then I'll mine all the iron and coal from the mountains to support the army and provide for the people. Wow, these mountains are so rich!"
After clapping her hands, Sun Shangxiang put her hands in her pockets and sighed deeply.
Liu Ji was already a young man of eighteen or nineteen.
Because he was Qiao Jingjing's sworn brother, he had received kindness from Madam Qiao since childhood, and the siblings had a deep bond.
The siblings traveled south together, and their actions became even closer.
Liu Ji often visited his elder sister Qiao Jingjing's side and always saw the young princess Sun Shangxiang, who was so bold, youthful, beautiful and unrestrained.
Envy unconsciously crept into Liu Ji's eyes.
This delicate relationship between a boy and a girl.
There's no need for anyone to explain it; people will automatically understand.
Whenever Lu Xun saw the young princess and Liu Ji,
One is carefree and straightforward, the other is a refined young man.
It really does resemble Qiao Jingjing and himself back in Lujiang City.
Lu Xun sometimes overthinks things a little.
When he looked at Lady Da Qiao again, he saw so many maids and guards.
The distance between him and her is now equivalent to how many times the Lujiang City of yesteryear has separated them.
Zhuge Jin has been working in Eastern Wu for many years.
Recently, his younger brother Zhuge Liang, who was unemployed at home, finally found a job.
His younger brother, Zhuge Liang, wrote to him saying that his way of finding a job was very special; instead of submitting a resume, he had employers come to his door for a direct interview.
Furthermore, Liang Ge created obstacles for the boss. The boss didn't see him during the first interview, and it wasn't until the third interview that the boss finally met him.
This interview also had a special name: "Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage".
Zhuge Jin was genuinely happy for his younger brother, Zhuge Liang.
Although Liu Bei, as a boss, didn't have much money and his company wasn't very big, he had a good character and reputation. Moreover, he was a member of the Han imperial family, so everyone had to call him "Uncle Liu" according to seniority.
In his letter to his elder brother Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang wrote:
My brother's boss has been having a rough time lately and hasn't been very lucky. In the future, he might need my brother's boss to help him out.
My brother Zhuge Jin said that this was of course necessary.
In that letter, Zhuge Jin had already made a boast to his younger brother Zhuge Liang.
