Ailang hurriedly shouted, "Slow down! You just left like this, what should I do with Sun Ren?" Xu Shu smiled and said, "I almost forgot. My subordinates have handed Miss Sun Ren and her maid to General Dian Wei. General Dian Wei has taken them to the flower hall to serve tea. What will be done next depends on the lord's will, how dare I argue indiscriminately! My subordinates dare not leave Chaisang for a long time, so I said goodbye!" After that, he bowed to Ailang and left quickly. Ailang jumped up and scolded, "Old Xu, you are so despicable! You actually threw this tigress to me!" Xu Shu had already gone away, and it seemed that he had not heard Ailang's scolding. Ailang was so angry that he was so angry.

Thinking of Sun Ren who was sent to his hands, he felt that this was a hot potato, and he couldn't help but feel a headache. He might as well let her go again. However, Ai Lang rejected this idea himself. Sun Jian wanted to use his daughter to form an in-law alliance with Cao Cao. How could he get them to get what they want? What's more, Xu Shu deliberately used this Sun Ren to use a trick to sow discord. If Sun Ren was let go like this, wouldn't it be that Xu Shu's plan failed?

Ailang thought for a while and felt that he could only leave Sun Ren. He sighed, walked out of the study and headed straight to the flower hall.

Ailang came all the way to the entrance of the flower hall. Seeing Dian Wei standing outside, he couldn't help but ask, "Lao Dian, where is Sun Ren?" Dian Wei pointed to the flower hall and said, "It's inside. I'm just waiting for the lord to deal with it." Ailang couldn't help rolling his eyes and cursed inwardly: Wait for me to deal with it? What should I do? Could you use a trick to force the king to do it first?

He smiled bitterly and shook his head, and walked into the flower hall.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Sun Ren, who had not seen for a long time, standing by the window not far away, facing away from this side, looking out the window. One of her close maids stood beside her. When the maid saw Ai Lang coming in, she immediately became nervous and quickly said to Sun Ren in a low voice: "Miss, General Lu Bu is coming in!" Sun Ren was shocked, and he felt that he didn't know how to face Lu Bu. After a moment of silence, he turned around. Looking at Ai Lang, his mood was very complicated and he didn't know what to say.

This time, Ailang saw Sun Ren and found that she seemed to be much thinner than when she saw her last time. Her eyebrows were not spreading, and she seemed to be sad in her heart. She couldn't help but feel pity. Ailang wanted to comfort Sun Ren, but felt that from her own standpoint, it seemed that it was not appropriate to say such words. She didn't know what to say for a moment, but in the end she just said hello: "Well, how about you?"

Sun Ren nodded and said nothing.

Ailang suddenly felt that Sun Ren seemed different from before. He no longer looked like a violent tigress. He looked extremely sad and showed a very moving charm. This charm seemed to be stronger in this strong and spurious Miss Sun! Ailang's heart beat involuntarily. He came back to his senses and wanted to make a talk, and finally said, "You, have you eaten?" As soon as this said, Ailang wanted to slap himself in the face! Have you eaten? Such unnutritious nonsense is simply too embarrassing!

However, Sun Ren didn't know how to answer Ai Lang's most unnutritious question. He didn't say anything and seemed a little uneasy. Seeing the lady's appearance, Sun Ren's maid couldn't help but feel anxious and said to Ai Lang: "General, we only have breakfast today!" Ai Lang immediately said to Dian Wei: "Old Dian, go and tell the kitchen immediately to prepare a table of wine and food to deliver here!" Dian Wei Yingnuo said and ran down.

Ailang looked at Sun Ren and felt that he should say something more, but his mind became very bad at this time, and he didn't know what to say at all. Finally, he said, "Well, you can stay there! Just tell me what you need, don't be polite!" Sun Ren nodded gently, but still didn't say anything. Ailang felt that the current atmosphere was really awkward, so he said, "You rest, I won't disturb you." After that, he couldn't help looking at Sun Ren and turned around and left.

Not long after, the rich wine and food were delivered. After the two masters of Sun Ren had lunch, the four maids suddenly came in and bowed and said, "Madam Qi, we will come to serve the wife by the order of the lord!" Sun Ren was surprised when he heard that the other party actually called him a wife, and then understood. A moving blush appeared on his face. He wanted to defend himself, but he didn't know how to defend himself, and looked at him at a loss.

One of the maids said, "The lord has arranged a residence for the wife, please ask the wife who is the servant to go to the residence." After that, the four maids stood up and walked out first. Sun Ren didn't know what to do, so he subconsciously took his personal maid with the four maids.

...

Time flies. Before she knew it, it has been almost two years since Sun Ren came to Ailang's General's Mansion. Over the past few days, Sun Ren has regarded this place as his home, and Ailang's official Yan and other wives all have liked her sisters, which almost made her forget her identity. Many times, when she dreamed of the midnight trance, she almost thought that she was his wife like her sisters. However, although Sun Ren lived in the General's Mansion, she rarely saw Ailang, and Ailang seemed to deliberately avoid her. Even if she met her, she would just say a few words and then hurried away.

On this day, Sun Ren was sitting in his yard and looking at the lotus pond in front of him, and there seemed to be a bit of sorrow and resentment between his eyebrows.

At this time, Mu Zi, the close maid of Sun Ren, quickly came over with anger. However, when he came to Sun Ren, he didn't say anything. Sun Ren noticed Mu Zi's expression and asked in confusion: "Mu Zi, what's wrong?" Mu Zi looked like he wanted to speak but stopped, shook his head and said, "It's nothing!" Sun Ren said unhappily: "Do you still want to hide it in front of me? What's going on?"

Mu Zi couldn't help but say angrily: "Are those maids gossiping! They actually said that the wife didn't know what kind of wife they were, and they almost never had sex with the lord! They said that the wife might be sick?" Sun Ren's eyes flashed with resentment, and then he said indifferently: "Why do you have to bother with those servants talking nonsense?" Mu Zi responded, but looking at her expression, she obviously couldn't let go.

At this moment, a maid ran over and reported to Sun Ren: "Madam, Mrs. Wudie is back from the north!" Sun Ren immediately showed a very happy expression. It turned out that although Sun Ren had a harmonious relationship with his wife Yan and others, he had to talk about his feelings for his sisters when he talked about everything, but Huang Wudie was the only one. Perhaps because the two girls were heroes of the girls, they had been very good since they met. However, Huang Wudie had a military position and was not at home most of the time.

Sun Ren hurriedly asked the maid who came to report the news and said, "Where is Madam Wudie now?" The maid replied, "Madam Wudie is discussing affairs with her lord and all the generals in the hall!" When Sun Ren heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved and thought, "My devil must have been recalled by him! He discussed military affairs as soon as he came back. Is it going to start a big war again?" As he said that, he couldn't help but frown. Sun Ren lived a stable life here for two years and has become tired of war.

Sun Ren’s guess is correct. After two years of rest and preparation, all parties are ready to start a new round of war.

Ailang glanced at the people in the hall and smiled, "Many brothers have not seen each other for a long time! I am so happy to meet them today!" Everyone couldn't help laughing. Ailang turned his head and said to Chen Gong, "Old Chen, tell me about our current situation." Chen Gong Yingnuo said, and said to everyone: "Everyone, after two years of rest and governance, the four counties of Jiangdong have become very prosperous, and the income of the four counties' money, grain, tax and taxes have been as high as the entire Huainan area!" Everyone was very happy when they heard this.

As they talked about each other, there was a scattered noise in the hall. Yang Feng said in surprise: "I thought Jiangdong was a wilderness, but I didn't expect it to be comparable to Huainan!" Many people couldn't help but nod and agreed. In fact, it's not that they had such a view. In this era, the entire Jiangnan region was not the center of China's economy and population. Most of the places were still wild and uncivilized. The Han people were sparse and the resources were limited. Many barbarians still refused to naturalize and became enemies with the Han people.

However, this view has prejudice. The four counties of Jiangdong are not listed here. In fact, the four counties of Jiangdong have flourished in the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period. Both economy and population cannot be underestimated. In the past two years, under the governance of Ailang, the four counties of Jiangdong have no restrictions on traditional gentry. In addition, Ailang's strong policy to encourage industry and commerce have put the four counties on the track of rapid development. In just two years, the prosperity of the four counties of Jiangdong has far exceeded that of Sun Jian's rule.

However, there is a price to achieve this result. That is, the aristocratic class, which originally owned a large amount of land in the four counties of Jiangdong, secretly regarded Ailang and the others as enemies. Because in order to solve the land problem of ordinary people, Ailang used the method of increasing taxes to force the aristocratic class to sell a large amount of land in his hands to the official government at a low price, which greatly reduced the wealth of the aristocratic class. Because of this reason, Ailang and his army have become enemies in the hearts of many aristocratic people!

Yan Liang couldn't help asking, "What's the situation in Qingzhou? Has it developed?" Everyone also showed a look of concern. Chen Gong smiled slightly, looked at Huang Wudie, clasped his fists at Ailang and said, "General, Mrs. Wudie is more clear about the situation in Qingzhou, so why should Mrs. Wudie tell me!" Huang Wudie has been following Huang Zhong to guard Qingzhou, so Xu Shu has such words.
