This time, she finally has a rare moment of freedom.
Her second brother has locked her up for several days now.
The key point is that her second brother is keeping her locked up, while her sister-in-law is definitely kept in the dark and knows nothing about it.
Sun Shangxiang went to her sister-in-law's place to show her face and let her sister-in-law know that she had returned.
Sun Shangxiang, with light and graceful steps, stepped into the floating blue sea and came to her sister-in-law Qiao Jingjing's window.
Qiao Jingjing was sitting on a chair by the window, thinking about what was happening in Wenyuan Pavilion.
What Qiao Jingjing said in the Wenyuan Pavilion just now was partly to scare Liu Bei, and partly her true attitude.
Qiao Jingjing was unwilling to use her sister-in-law, Sun Shangxiang, for a marriage alliance.
If Liu Bei still had designs on Qiao Jingjing, then Liu Bei would be even more guilty.
Just then, Qiao Jingjing turned her head and saw her sister-in-law, Sun Shangxiang, standing in front of her window, her face flushed.
"Ah Xiang?"
It's you!
When did you get back?
Does your second brother know you're back?
What brings you back here?
Liu Bei has arrived at Beigu Mountain in Jingkou. You should come back now!
A few days ago I asked Liu Ji, and he said you were in Jiaozhou. I even told him, "It's good that you're in Jiaozhou!"
As soon as Qiao Jingjing finished speaking, Sun Shangxiang stepped into the room and threw herself into Qiao Jingjing's arms.
"Sister-in-law!"
His voice was already trembling with sobs when he opened his mouth.
"Sister-in-law, you're the one who cares about me the most!"
You don't know, I was already back when Liu Ji came back!
"It was my second brother! He blocked you from knowing anything about me! He locked me up and wouldn't let you know!"
ah!
Is this really the case?
Qiao Jingjing heard these words.
He had no time to comfort Sun Shangxiang, nor did he care about romantic feelings.
Qiao Jingjing quickly pulled Sun Shangxiang out of her arms:
"Then how did you escape?"
Qiao Jingjing thought that since Sun Quan had imprisoned Sun Shangxiang, he wouldn't release her easily.
But Sun Shangxiang said, "It was my second brother who released me! He made me stand behind the screen in the Wenyuan Pavilion to see what you were saying in the hall!"
"I understand! That Liu Bei is such a smooth talker. After you left, he didn't mention the axe-wielder or my assassination attempt on him. Instead, he thanked my brother for letting him meet the beautiful Da Qiao and the little princess of Jiangdong!"
Sun Shangxiang was fierce and ruthless in front of Liu Bei and Sun Quan, but in front of her sister-in-law, she was a spoiled and aggrieved child.
Qiao Jingjing no longer cared about what would happen next.
Qiao Jingjing deduced from Sun Shangxiang's words that Sun Shangxiang had probably rushed out and had a serious fight with Liu Bei.
Sun Shangxiang and Liu Bei are not on the same level of cunning, so it won't work.
"Ah Xiang, listen to me!"
You're leaving now!
I'll have Lü Meng escort you. Take the coconut flakes with you and my men with you!
I will bring you your maidservant shortly!
You go first, go far away, okay?
Go to Jiaozhou, go to Guilin, and don't come back!
No matter what your brother says to you, don't come back! Whether he's sick, I'm sick, or what's wrong with Mother, don't listen to him, don't come back, understand?
"Don't worry, I'm here on Beigu Mountain, you have your eldest sister-in-law, and if things get really bad, you still have your third sister-in-law. Your second brother is young and strong; he won't make you, a young girl, shoulder any burdens. Understand?"
Or perhaps Qiao Jingjing was too hasty.
Sun Shangxiang couldn't fully understand what was going on inside.
Sun Shangxiang only sensed that her sister-in-law wanted to send her away and told her to leave quickly.
While Qiao Jingjing was speaking, she had already instructed Lü Meng to prepare the manpower.
A Luo and Ye Rong had already packed a simple bundle for Sun Shangxiang, and Qiao Jingjing stuffed a large bag of silver into Sun Shangxiang's hand.
Sun Shangxiang saw this kind of scene.
Her eyes filled with tears, and she finally became alert.
"Sister-in-law, why...why should I leave? Is Liu Bei really that terrifying? Even you couldn't protect me...Is something terrible about to happen in Jiangdong?"
Qiao Jingjing was still smiling:
"What's the big deal! Nothing's a big deal. What could be more important than your marriage? Your sister-in-law said that since your brother isn't here, she's like your brother to you, and she would never treat your marriage lightly. You'd better leave now!"
Qiao Jingjing pushed Sun Shangxiang away forcefully.
Sun Shangxiang clung to the door, saying, "I... I haven't said goodbye to my mother yet."
Need not!
There's no need to say goodbye to your mother.
Let me go first and we'll talk later.
Speed is of the essence in war.
Qiao Jingjing just kept pushing Sun Shangxiang towards the door.
Tell Lü Meng to take the person away immediately.
Under those circumstances, Qiao Jingjing arranged for someone to send Sun Shangxiang away without Sun Quan's knowledge.
That was because Qiao Jingjing thought Sun Quan was unaware of the situation.
However, Sun Quan had a very accurate grasp of the situation in Beigu Mountain and Jingkou.
Earlier, Sun Quan was in the Wenyuan Pavilion, discussing matters with Liu Bei out of politeness.
Just now, the wine poured in by the servant was found to contain arsenic by the cunning and treacherous Liu Bei.
"General Sun, this wine is poisoned, you mustn't drink it!"
Sun Quan felt a sudden pang of unease for no apparent reason.
Without him giving the order, what audacious fool would dare to poison Liu Bei's wine behind Sun Quan's back? This would be utterly outrageous!
Sun Quan also ordered Lü Fan to investigate.
Those investigating arsenic have not yet reached a conclusion.
Then someone came to report to Sun Quan that Lü Meng had led a large group of people, including twenty of Lady Da Qiao's maids, down to Beigu Mountain.
Sun Shangxiang was disguised as a maid at the time.
That was Qiao Jingjing's intention to have Sun Shangxiang dress up like that in order to deceive them.
Sun Quan was being questioned by Liu Bei at that time.
If Sun Quan wanted to kill Liu Bei, he could just give him some poison and Liu Bei would die. Sun Quan could then treat it as if Liu Bei were dead and continue fighting Jingzhou. He wasn't afraid of that.
