Sun Yerong's attempt to please others stemmed from her wholehearted care for Liu Bei's only son, A Dou.
With Liu Bei not around, Sun Yerong felt like she had lost her backer and could only rely on her merits with the young Liu Shan to avoid being made difficult by Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang must have been constantly on guard against Lady Sun.
Zhuge Liang arranged for many spies to keep a close watch on Sun Yerong's every move, fearing that she might harm the young and pitiful A Dou.
But Madam Sun had the appearance of a loving mother.
joke!
How many years has Ye Rong been by Da Qiao's side, experiencing this kind of experience?
How did Da Qiao treat Sun Ce's son, A Shao? She treated the young A Shao as her own son, showing him warmth, care, and love.
Sun Yerong learned them all.
Not a single thing was missed.
Zhuge Liang was also busy with many affairs, and there were times when he misjudged things.
Zhuge Liang pondered for a long time with a cold heart, and finally concluded that Lady Sun was nothing more than a flower in a greenhouse, unaware of the evil in the world.
Although Madam Sun was passionate and strong-willed, she was also kind-hearted.
Furthermore, this woman's pure-hearted belief: "If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, follow the dog!"
Now that Lady Sun has married Liu Bei and Liu Bei has taken up residence in Xichuan, it seems that Liu Bei is about to become the ruler of Xichuan.
Lady Sun also rose to prominence, transforming from Sun Quan's sister into the wife of a local ruler.
Isn't this all a good thing? She should be a good Lady Sun and take good care of Liu Bei's son.
This was the standard behavior for many women after marriage at that time.
Zhuge Liang didn't think much of it.
We must remain vigilant.
At that time, Liu Bei had already written a letter to Zhuge Liang, inviting Zhuge Liang, Lady Sun, and Liu Shan to go to Chengdu together.
Leave Guan Yu behind to guard Jingzhou.
Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Bei's cause had already succeeded.
From then on, Xichuan became Liu Bei's base of operations.
It was also a place where Zhuge Liang could fully display his life ambitions and ideals.
It was Zhuge Liang's springboard and bargaining chip for restoring the Han Dynasty.
However, Zhuge Liang could not trust the people of Jiangdong.
After observing the situation closely, Zhuge Liang concluded that Lady Sun had done a good job raising Liu Bei's son, Liu Shan, over the past year. Therefore, he could not allow Liu Bei and Lady Sun to be separated, thus giving Sun Quan a reason to find fault.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang sent men to arrange for Lady Sun and Liu Shan to go to Xichuan.
Zhuge Liang would have to stay in Jingzhou for a while longer, cooperating with Guan Yu.
Guan Yu guarded Maicheng.
Zhuge Liang defended Jingzhou.
Anyway, by then Lady Sun had already set off for Sichuan and was completely under the control of Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei.
Given the distance, Sun Quan was powerless to act against them and would likely be hesitant to act rashly.
Sun Yerong understood the meaning of Liu Bei's letter and couldn't wait to leave.
Only if she leaves with A Dou can Lü Meng and Lu Xun go ahead and seize Jingzhou City.
Although that was how she replied to Lü Meng at the time.
However, a month or two passed, and there was no movement from Lü Meng's side. He only sent troops to garrison in places like Jiangxia and Nanjun, watching them with predatory eyes, without making any other moves.
Coconut and Amon no longer need to communicate secretly.
Ye Rong understood that Lü Meng was still waiting for an opportunity.
When leaving Jingzhou for Xichuan.
Lady Sun also wrote a letter in front of Zhuge Liang to her mother, Lady Wu, who was far away in Beigushan, Jingkou:
"Strategist, I have a letter from home to deliver to my mother! My journey to Yizhou will surely reunite me with my husband, a joyous occasion indeed. However, I will be even further away from my mother from now on, and I don't know when I will be able to see her and my second brother again! I beg you, strategist, to do me the favor of sending someone to deliver this letter to my mother, so that I may wish her good health and longevity!"
Zhuge Liang said, "Madam, you don't need to be so polite!"
In fact, I had already read the letter from beginning to end.
Zhuge Liang read the letter written by Lady Sun in every way imaginable—horizontally, vertically, diagonally, and even skipping around—and was certain that Sun Yerong had not included any secret messages in the letter.
Only then did he feel at ease sending the letter to Jiangdong.
When Sun Yerong set off with A Dou, she even specially arranged a banquet across the river from afar:
"Mother, your daughter's return is uncertain! I wish you a long and healthy life! Second brother, although you are busy with official duties, please take care of yourself and remember to pay your respects to Mother morning and night to ease her loneliness!"
The ceremony is complete.
Sun Yerong and Liu Adou traveled together.
Go to Chengdu and find Liu Bei.
Zhuge Liang believed that since he had captured the people of Jiangdong and Sun Quan's sister, Sun Quan would not dare to make any rash moves.
Sun Quan successfully sent his spy even closer to Liu Bei, placing him deep within Liu Bei's inner circle.
Sometimes, high-level hunters appear as the prey themselves.
Who knows when, the prey in your hand may in an instant become a skilled hunter.
After Lady Sun and Liu Shan went to Chengdu, Zhuge Liang diligently stayed in Jingzhou and paid special attention to repairing the connection with Jiangdong.
Zhuge Liang considered himself to have done a great job in this regard.
The person guarding the opposite side was led by Lu Su.
Zhuge Liang understood Lu Su very well. Lu Su was an upright man, unlike Zhou Yu, who only thought about Jiangdong. Lu Su treated Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang quite well.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang believed that Lu Su would not fire upon him while he was in command.
Furthermore, Zhou Yu, who was always very active in Jiangdong at that time, had already gone home to recuperate.
According to reliable sources, Zhou Yu, despite having suffered a relapse of his old injury, was still making a fuss about training troops and reorganizing the navy. After a short while, he coughed up a mouthful of blood. He still wanted to continue working despite his illness, but Sun Quan, worried about Zhou Yu's health, quickly summoned him back to Jingkou.
