Chapter 1617 The real ambition is Liu Bei

The big ship docked, and Sun Quan and a group of people responded.

He confessed to Cao Shuo and said, "I thought Brother Zirong was busy with business and would not come anymore. I didn't expect to arrive in Jiangdong so soon."

"My mother-in-law summoned me here, how could it be that I wouldn't come?" Cao Shu replied with a smile.

"My mother hasn't seen Brother Zirong for many years. Now my sister will marry her brother, so she has a reluctant invitation. In fact, Brother Zirong is really busy, just send someone to say it." Sun Quan replied: "Although my mother will be a little disappointed, she can understand it."

"My mother-in-law and I met last time a few years ago," Cao Shu said: "I haven't been to Jiangdong for many years. I remember that Zhou Gongjin and Zhongmou were much smaller than Bofu's arrogance."

Sun Quan laughed and said to Cao Shuo: "Brother Zirong was still the eldest son of the Cao family, but now he is the King of Wuzhou, the prince of the Cao family, and the general. I am just a mere Marquis of Wu. Brother Zirong came here, how dare he not come to greet him in person?"

"That's right." Cao Shuo smiled and said, "My official position is indeed a little older than before. No wonder Bo Fu despises me, but Zhong Mou puts forward such a situation."

"Brother Zirong was joking." Sun Quan replied with a smile: "Actually, my dead brother admired you very much back then. He mentioned it in front of me several times that the only hero in the world is Zirong."

"Bo Fuxin is arrogant and arrogant, can he say such things?" Cao Shuo asked Sun Quan with a smile.

Sun Quan replied: "The deceased brother is indeed arrogant and he doesn't look down on many heroes in the world. But Brother Zirong has a different status in his heart."

"If Zhongmou hadn't mentioned it, I really wouldn't have known that Bo Fu actually valued me so much." Cao Shuo said: "If he was still alive, he would have to drink a few more drinks with him."

"Although the Dead Brother is no longer here, how about I drink more with Brother Rong?" Sun Quan asked.

"That depends on how much Zhongmou is drinking." Cao Shuo said: "I am a person who claims to be unintoxicated by a thousand cups."

"Brother Zirong said this, I have to find out." Sun Quan laughed and then said, "Mother is still waiting, Brother Zirong, please."

Sun Quan asked Cao Shu again: "Dare you ask Brother Zirong, is it riding a horse or a car?"

"How can people who have been on horseback all year round be used to riding a car?" Cao Shuo said: "I'd better ride a horse."

He ordered the horse to come over to lead the horse, Sun Quan said, "The horses in Jiangdong are all southern pony, not as tall as northern horses. I am afraid that Brother Zirong will not be accustomed to riding."

"No matter how short you are, you will be a horse. It is much better than being hit by the bumps in a carriage." Cao Shu responded.

After a while, someone brought horses to Cao Shu and others.

Sun Quan said to Cao Shu: "Brother Zirong, please get on the horse."

After turning on the horse, when Sun Quan also got on the back, Cao Shu asked him, "Why didn't you see Gongjin?"

"Gongjin is training troops." Sun Quan said: "I have sent someone to invite him. When I have seen my mother, he should have come."

"Gongjin and I are also old friends." Cao Shuo said: "He helped to promote the marriage with Miss Sun."

"Brother Zirong came to Jiangdong when I was young." Sun Quan said: "I didn't participate much in Jiangdong at that time. I really don't know why my brother got married to my sister."

"Yes, time passes quickly." Cao Shu said: "When I came, I was a teenager in my teens, and it was almost ten years in a blink of an eye."

"Time really passes quickly. I just hope that the Sun family and the Cao family can be repaired as before." Sun Quan said: "Isn't it great if we have no attack on each other, we only talk about kinship and friendship?"

"But I heard that Liu Xuande sent Zhuge Liang over to persuade you to deal with the Cao family." Cao Shu suddenly said.

Unexpectedly, when he came to Jiangdong, he dared to raise this topic. Sun Quan was stunned for a moment when he was asked.

But after all, he has been the Lord of Jiangdong for several years, so he can handle such a scene.

With a slight smile, Sun Quan said to Cao Shu: "Liu Xuande has that intention, but how could our Sun family in Jiangdong be at his mercy?"

"Bofu led his troops to attack Jiangdong and built a large-scale business for the Sun family. Zhongmou must not listen to the villain's slander and ruin these business." Cao Shu said: "My father and I led the troops to Jingzhou for Liu Xuande."

"But the Cao family took Jingzhou after all." Sun Quan said: "Liu Jingsheng died..."

"If we don't take it, who will Zhongmou think Jingzhou will fall into?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Liu Jingsheng's second son Liu Cong has taken over Jingzhou. Who else can he fall into the hands of the Liu family?" Sun Quan asked Cao Shu in pretending not to understand.

"Although Liu Cong took over Jingzhou, Liu Xuande was helping Liu Qi, trying to take Jingzhou away from him." Cao Shuo said: "Zhong Mou also saw that Liu Qi was entrenched in Jiangxia. He was led by Liu Xuande's defeat. Who is Jiangxia's troops now?"

Sun Quan was stunned: "The soldiers and horses of Jiangxia are indeed in the hands of Liu Xuande now."

"Looking at the world, it is not our Cao family who is truly ambitious." Cao Shuo said: "It is Liu Xuande. The Cao family attacked Jingzhou in order not to make this place a family business for Liu Xuande. Once he gained a foothold in Jingzhou, not to mention that our Cao family will continue to fight in the future, even Jiangdong may be in peace."

"I see that Liu Xuande has a kind face." Sun Quan said: "He shouldn't have done these things?"

"Has Zhongmou not heard of what Liu Xuande did in the past?" Cao Shu said: "Where he went, the originally stable place would be in chaos. This man was kind-hearted, but he was very restless inside. Since he started his business, he had been under the banner of the Han family's relatives. It can be seen that this man did not want to support the Han family, but had plans to replace him."

Of course Sun Quan knew what Cao Shu said.

He had promised to join forces with Liu Bei, but he thought that the Cao family army was in Jingzhou and would probably have sent troops to cross the Yangtze River.

But now Cao Shu has come to Jiangdong in person. If the Cao family had such a plan, they would definitely not allow Cao Shu to take risks.

It seems that the Cao family really has no intention of conquering Jiangdong. Instead, Liu Bei tried to use Jiangdong and Cao family to become enemies and reap the benefits of the fisherman.

With his eyebrows locked, Sun Quan said, "I understand what Brother Zirong said. If Liu Xuande sends someone over again, I will deal with it."

"Don't talk about these." Cao Shuo smiled and waved his hand: "If Zhongmou is worried, just be prepared to fight and see if the Cao family army will come to the bank of the Yangtze River."
