Chapter 206 Wuxia Amon (6)
After Sun Shangxiang received the secret letter from Lu Meng, although Li Fang, the leader of the female guard, did not come to her, she still took advantage of the situation and asked Liu Bei to complain, expressing her dissatisfaction with Ma Su's arrest of the female guard's family for no reason, and asked Liu Bei to give her an explanation.
Liu Bei has not decided to allocate land to Sun Shangxiang for the time being. He was waiting for Sun Shangxiang to say that Jiangling was her dowry, but in that case, he would be ready to make a fuss and directly reject the matter!
After all, in this era, the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues have become popular. Sun Shangxiang wants to use the dowry to talk about it, which is a slap in the face, which is something that Liu Bei cannot tolerate!
Who knew that although Sun Shangxiang was arrogant on the surface, she was not a brainless person. She would still not do anything that angered Liu Bei.
Therefore, this time she complained to Liu Bei, and did not ask about the land, but wanted to cause trouble for Ma Su.
Ma Su had already reported this matter to Liu Bei, and he also knew that Ma Su had sufficient reasons for arresting people, and Sun Shangxiang had no handle, so there was nothing wrong with it.
Moreover, when Ma Su took action, he did not know that Li Yong was Li Fang's brother, and he did not know that the other families were all female guards' families. Sun Shangxiang could really tell the matter directly, and Liu Bei could really turn it over.
But Ma Su was transferred back from Wuling by Liu Bei, so Liu Bei has always been in a difficult position as to arrange Ma Su's position.
It’s not that he doesn’t have a suitable position or that Ma Su is not capable enough, but because he is too close to Zhang Fei. As long as Zhang Fei has time, he will ask Ma Su to drink and contact him.
Although Zhang Fei was not drunk every time he drank with Ma Su, he still wanted to find Liu Bei and asked Ma Su to assist him.
The combination of Zhang Fei and Ma Su was originally created by Liu Bei, but Zhuge Liang did not want Ma Su and Zhang Fei to get together. Liu Bei also agreed with his worries and then took them apart.
Although the two of them can be said to be complementary, because Zhang Fei obeyed Ma Su, neither Liu Bei nor Zhuge Liang could accept this result.
Zhang Fei is Liu Bei's right-hand man, and sooner or later he needs to be his own side. If he is allowed to partner with Ma Su, he will sooner or later lose the power to Ma Su!
In addition, Guan Yu admired Ma Su's brother Ma Liang very much. They had a tacit understanding of their partnership, but Guan Yu took the absolute initiative. Moreover, Ma Liang's strength lies in his political strategy, and Guan Yu was the entire military decision.
Although the two brothers Ma Liang and Ma Su have their own strengths, they are equally outstanding, but they are appreciated by Liu Bei's two sworn brothers. This is an anomaly, but it is also easy to arouse other people's associations.
Therefore, Liu Bei's reused both of them easily caused dissatisfaction among other families in Jingzhou, and he always wanted to balance it.
However, Ma Liang's reputation was outstanding and recognized by Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu. Liu Bei wanted to value Guan Yu and was the planned candidate to guard Jingzhou. He really couldn't lose his wings.
Although Ma Su gained some credit after Zhang Fei, Liu Bei also gave Zhang Fei a face, so he got a good position.
Now that Sun Shangxiang has proposed that Ma Su destroy the Sun-Liu alliance, this is a big charge! Liu Bei really wants to touch Ma Su, which is a good excuse!
Liu Bei's thoughts were heard. After he had already made up his mind, his attitude towards Sun Shangxiang changed drastically. He looked at his beautiful young wife with a tender face and said:
"Madam, please rest assured. Although Ma Su is my capable subordinate, if he really offended his wife, I will definitely not cover up. I will give you a satisfactory explanation!"
Seeing that Liu Bei's attitude was so good, Sun Shangxiang's anger disappeared all of a sudden. She was afraid that Liu Bei would be embarrassed, so she did not mention anything else.
After the two of them were warm for a while, Liu Bei couldn't hold back and stood up and said:
"Madam, please wait for a while. I will verify Ma Su's situation and then punish him!"
Although Sun Shangxiang enjoyed this atmosphere very much, she could not stop Liu Bei from handling official duties. She could only watch him leave and then go to visit Adou.
Maybe it was fate, maybe it was love and good house, Sun Shangxiang, a young woman who had not yet had children, was very close to Liu Bei's son Liu Chan, and the two were happy together.
The main reason is Liu Chan. He was originally very upset. Liu Bei hired multiple nannies. Whether young or beautiful, he could not calm him down, which made Liu Bei very angry.
But after meeting Sun Shangxiang, the three-year-old Liu Chan took the initiative to throw himself into her arms, and even spoke in a silence and called out "mother" in a slight voice, giving Liu Bei a surprise, making Sun Shangxiang maternal and making the two get along like their biological mother and son.
Because of this relationship, Liu Bei knew that getting married to Sun Shangxiang was Sun Quan's plan, but he didn't seem to be disgusted in his heart, and he was very indulged in her like in Jiangdong.
It is true that Liu Bei went out to deal with official duties, mainly to discuss with Zhuge Liang about handling Ma Su's affairs.
After hearing Liu Bei's detailed introduction to various things Sun Shangxiang proposed in the past few days, Zhuge Liang fell into deep thought and finally said:
"Ma Youyou is always famous for his talent, and his performance is reasonable, but he is young and energetic, and does nothing to do anything! If you don't have any jade, you won't be able to become a weapon! I think it still needs to be honed.
When Liu Bei heard what Zhuge Liang meant, he knew that he wanted to move Ma Su, so he asked:
"Although this incident caused dissatisfaction from his wife, Ma Su did not do anything wrong. I know what happened. I will waive the punishment if I see the punishment! I received a report two days ago that Wuling has not achieved any effect since replacing Ma Su with Hu Ban, and the training effect seems to be not very stable recently. Why not transfer him back to Wuling again!"
Seeing that Liu Bei did not want to punish Ma Su and Zhuge Liang did not have a suitable place to make arrangements, he said to Liu Bei:
"The lord's arrangement is very appropriate, and there is also the matter about the mistress asking for land. I think she should give her a good place and let her take those female guards to take care of it. Although it may not increase much profit, it can give them something to do and reduce a lot of trouble. Why not do it!"
Liu Bei could not refuse Mrs. Sun's request, and it had been delayed for many days. When he heard Zhuge Liang agree, he asked:
"Where does the military advisor think it is appropriate to place the farm?"
Zhuge Liang thought about it and said:
"Since the lord established Gong'an City, the former Chanling County Government in the west of Gong'an City has been deserted now, and there are still thousands of acres of fertile land that have not been distributed. It is better to send someone to repair the city and ask the mistress to station the Nuwei camp there and manage the thousands of acres of land by the way."
When Liu Bei heard this, it was a pity that the original Chanling County Government had been abandoned and replied happily:
"What the military advisor says is reasonable, just follow what the military advisor says!"
