Sun Ce talked with Mi Zhu for a long time, and Youzhou's strategy is also the top priority.

Unlike Gan Ning who focused on the navy, Mi Zhu valued more interests. In terms of business and business, and in the Central Plains or Jiangnan, Youzhou was too cold and the arable land was limited, so it was better for Zhongyuan to feed more people. In addition to war horses, the only thing that could really attract him was all kinds of delicacies and furs, and seizing important trade channels was the key.

Mi Zhu suggested that after establishing a base in the Dashi, the vassal state of Liaodong were first taken. The vassal states of Liaodong were mainly Wuhuan people. The Wuhuan people had a lot of contact with the Han people and often did business. They basically had those others. If needed, they could hire them to fight. Moreover, the Wuhuan people were relatively powerful, and their tribes were all on the border of Youzhou, and most of the pastures were in their hands. It was unrealistic to do business in Youzhou.

Sun Ce listened to Mi Zhu's suggestions very seriously, although he may not agree. Listening to different voices before making a decision is his focus in recent times. Not only should he listen, but he should also let Zhuge Liang, Yang Yi and others record it, look back and think carefully, and talk again when necessary to ask for more accurate information. When there is no answer, he should arrange the detailed construction camp to include it in the plan, so that the detailed construction can collect information purposefully.

Sun Ce discussed with Mi Zhu and adjusted his position.

The two brothers of the Mi family, Mi Fang, are commanders of the military, and they must fight everywhere. There are risks in the war, just have one. Since Mi Fang goes to the war, Mi Zhu should take it back and defend the family business. Sun Ce plans to build the Dashi into an important town with both military and commerce, hoping that Mi Zhu can take over the Dashi and be responsible for the commerce and trade in Liaodong, Lelang areas, and the affairs of the western Youzhou to others.

Mi Zhu had contacted Zhang Hong and knew the strength of Zhongshan merchants. He was mentally prepared for Sun Ce’s arrangements and agreed immediately. Mi Fang was also very satisfied. With Mi Zhu in charge of the Da family, he felt even more at ease when he went to war with Gan Ning. Mi Zhu could not only raise supplies for them and replenish war horses, but also handle the spoils for them. The benefits the Mi family would get from it will be very considerable.

They have both interests and can make contributions, and the Mi brothers have no reason to refuse. They are very satisfied with Sun Ce's arrangements, and their enthusiasm is even more sincere.

Liu He held his cheeks and sat in front of the window, looking at the main room diagonally opposite. There were lights on there, and three figures shining on the window. Sun Ce and the Mi brothers had been talking for more than an hour, but they had not yet ended.

"Tu tu tu tu." Someone knocked on the door. Liu He was shocked and quickly sat upright, signaling the maid to open the door.

The door opened, Mi Lan walked in with two maids, and bowed with a smile. "The eldest princess was condescending to her and visited the humble house. More than a hundred people from Mi's house were honored. There was nothing good in the border area, so please forgive me."

Liu He was a little frightened and hurriedly stepped forward to help Mi Lan up. "Sister is pregnant, so there is no need to be like this. Now I am like my sister, and I am all around my husband. Don't mention the three words "The Princess" again."

Mi Lan nodded with a smile. "It's better to obey your orders than respect, so I'll give you a big shot and call you sister."

"This is the best." Liu He sat down before the desk and squeezed out a smile of unnatural smile. "My sister's house is so delicate and it's so comfortable to live in. It's not like the houses in the palace, although they are big, they don't look like home at all."

Mi Lan covered her mouth and laughed out loud. "Since my sister likes it, stay for a few more days. You can stay here without following your husband north. Thank you for your hard work in the army and the waves on the sea are high, and you may not be able to adapt for a while."

Liu He smiled and thanked him, but did not promise. She followed Sun Ce for half a month and knew that the marching was hard, and even if there was a boat for transportation, it was still far less comfortable than flat ground. The feeling of landing on both feet was so good. She didn't feel it before, but now she cherished it very much. The family is rich, the house is spacious, the decoration is exquisite, and what is even more rare is that it is full of fireworks. Everything is set up by people, unlike the furnishings in the palace, but it looks magnificent, but it is full of dignity everywhere, which makes people dare not have a slight sense of playfulness. If possible, of course she hopes to live here. But she has just arrived and her identity is different from others, so how dare she have another trouble, making Sun Ce think that she can't get rid of the old habits of the eldest princess.

Mi Lan learned about the eldest princess from Gan Mei and Zhen Mi. At this moment, Liu He looked cautious and could not see any of the eldest princess' aura. He originally had no awe of the royal family, leaving only sympathy for Liu He's life experience. Her parents died early and were raised by her brother. Although the Mi family was rich and had a comfortable life, as they grew up, they took over the business in the family and felt the humiliation brought about by the rich but not noble family. Liu He, contrary to the Mi family, had only a name for the royal family, but had no royal dignity. The dignified eldest princess was a concubine. This kind of loss was even worse than the unwillingness she had when she first heard that she wanted to marry Sun Ce as a concubine.

"Have my sister heard of her husband before? Is he the way you imagined?"

Liu He turned his head to look at the figure on the window in the distance. Even if he could only see the shadows through the window, she could tell which one was Sun Ce. No one could learn the relaxing posture of leaning on somewhere casually. "I heard that, but it's not a good thing. People in the palace said that he was murderous, big..." Liu He stuck out his tongue and showed a hint of glory. "I didn't follow the common sense. At first I thought he was a vicious and barbaric person, but I didn't expect him to be such a handsome husband."

Mi Lan also smiled. When she first heard about Sun Ce, she thought Sun Ce was a rough and savage man. Later, when she met, she realized that Sun Ce was not only handsome but also had a delicate mind. Although she was a concubine, Sun Ce did not treat her as a concubine and was very pampered, especially giving her the opportunity to play to her strengths and be on par with men.

"It's a blessing to lose his horse." Mi Lan smiled and said, "My sister lives with peace of mind, and you will find that he is more good in the future."

Liu He was slightly slight. In fact, she was already content now. Although Sun Ce was not very close to her, he was not particularly repulsive. Apart from not having much contact, he did not say a single harsh words or any action against her. The contact was not because Sun Ce hated her, but because Sun Ce has been too busy recently. He had to meet many people every day and handle many things. He had some time to practice martial arts. Even Gan Mei and Zhen Mi didn’t have much time to see him, and more people had a meal together.

"Honey, have you been so busy?"

Mi Lan said: "We have no choice but to do something. We can help him with some things, and we can only face them by themselves. We just don't cause trouble for him as much as possible. My husband is a considerate person. He will do what he can do. You will understand in the future."

Liu He's eyes flashed slightly, and he understood what Mi Lan meant.

The next day, Sun Ce climbed Mount Qu.

Spring is in full bloom, and Qushan is the most beautiful time. We climb up the steps and change the scenery. The trees are shaded by green trees and flowers are blooming. The valley is filled with a faint fragrance, which makes people feel refreshed and happy, and they feel excited without realizing it.

Liu He, who has lived in the deep palace all year round, opened his eyes and looked around, but he couldn't see enough. His eyes were filled with fresh things. If he took a few steps or turned around, the scenery in front of him would be very different and a different kind of fun.

"This mountain is so high." Liu He sighed with emotion when he looked up at the mountain like a green screen in front of him.

"Didn't you see the mountains before?" Sun Ce stopped in front and looked at Liu He with a smile, his eyes as warm as the spring breeze and his smile was as bright as the sun. Liu He was so nervous that he was watching him, so he quickly put away his smile, but he couldn't help but say, "I saw it, but from a distance, I didn't feel that way." As he said that, his eyes suddenly became dark and a trace of uneasiness flashed across his face.

Sun Ce saw clearly and looked around with caution. He was not worried about safety. He knew that he was going to climb the mountain today. Mi Fang checked the neighborhood a few days ago. Xu Chu went up the high yesterday, and there were people guarding the key points. The possibility of an assassin ambushing was infinitely close to zero.

"What's wrong?" Sun Ce stopped and waited for Liu He to come to his side, and asked softly: "Afraid of high altitude?"

Liu He shook his head. "I remembered... what I had experienced when I passed by Hangu that year." Liu He raised his head, looked at the mountain peaks, and squeezed out a smile, but it was even worse than crying, and could not hide his fear. "At that time, I... I always felt that those gray mountains would fall down like the burned hall in the palace, and could collapse at any time and bury me in it."

Liu He's voice became lower and lower, but Sun Ce's hearing was very good and he could not help but sigh. Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu recognized Han as Fire Demon. In order to prevent restraining Fire Demon, he deliberately changed Luoyang to Luoyang. He must have never expected that Luoyang City would be burned down by the fire in the end, just like he praised prophecies and divination to prove that he was destined to heaven, but made prophecies and divination the preceptor who had died, and advocated integrity, but caused radicalism to Confucian scholars.

Everything cannot be too much, too much is too little. It is even more taboo to make up lies only in front of you and ignore your back, especially to make up lies for some purpose. History has constantly proved that lies are lies after all, and if you do not follow objective laws, you will definitely suffer the consequences in the end.

"Give me your hand." Sun Ce stretched out his hand.

Liu He hesitated for a moment, but still tentatively reached out his hand. Sun Ce held her hand and led her to the mountain. Sun Ce's hand was very powerful, with a lot of calluses on his fingertips, which were left by practicing martial arts for many years. Liu He was surprised. She didn't expect Sun Ce's hand to be so rough, but then he suddenly realized. Without strong martial arts, how could Sun Ce possibly defeating powerful enemies and establishing great achievements repeatedly?

"Is my hands too thick? Is it uncomfortable?" Sun Ce seemed to sense Liu He's mood and laughed softly.

"No, no." Liu He said quickly, using more force on his hands, holding Sun Ce's hand tightly. For some reason, she suddenly said: "My brother's hand is the same. He takes his husband as an example and practices martial arts every day, always thinking that one day he can compete with you."

To Liu He's surprise, Sun Ce was not surprised at all. "I heard it." He paused and said, "I hope there will be such a day too."

Liu He raised his head in surprise.
