Chapter 1387: My Sun Quan's promise will always be valid
Chapter 1,387 My, Sun Quan’s promise is forever valid
Chapter 1,387 My, Sun Quan’s promise is forever valid
The few people Yi Xiaotian stayed in Lujiang found no trace of Sima Yi.
According to Guo Jia, he dumped the evidence against Sima Yi. It is estimated that after Sima Yi and others realized that they had been deceived, they either went to Cao Pi or went north to chase Huang Cheng.
But if they want to catch up with Huang Cheng, they can only say that they are just dreaming.
The completely opposite schedules of the two sides were not something that Sima Yi could catch up with if he wanted to.
So if Sima Yi didn't chase Huang Cheng, it's very likely that he would be on his way to find Cao Pi by now.
Just as Yi Xiaotian said, Sima Yi is exhausted at this moment...
After realizing that he had been deceived, he had not thought about asking his men to search for Guo Jia in the river, but the actual flames of war in the distance made Sima Yi flinch.
The key point is that Sima Yi doesn't have complete information like Yi Xiaotian. He can't even figure out whether the so-called evidence was hidden by Guo Jia or sent to another place by Guo Jia.
With so many difficulties before him, Sima Yi could not solve any of them, so he finally made a helpless decision and hurried back to inform Cao Pi... to be prepared to deal with Cao Cao and Yi Xiaotian.
After all...when the situation reached this point, Sima Yi was already desperate.
If he can't even handle Guo Jia, how can he talk about a head-on confrontation with Yi Xiaotian and Cao Cao?
But he couldn't give up directly.
In the midst of the torture, he hurried on like a zombie, but even though he was on the road, he felt that there was only darkness in front of him, and this was already a dead end.
——
Yi Xiaotian made a decision here. In speculation, he was worried that the target of Zhuge Liang and others was not Xiangyang, but Yizhou. Now it was too late to inform Cai Zhaoji that they should not enter Sichuan for the time being, so he could only take Zhao Yun first.
Go.
Yi Xiaotian quickly informed everyone around him of the matter.
Although Sun Shangxiang clamored to follow Yi Xiaotian, Yi Xiaotian had no intention of discussing with them this time.
Seeing Sun Shangxiang pursed her lips and tears welling up in her eyes, Guo Jia spoke up to help Yi Xiaotian:
"Princess, sir, this trip to Yizhou is not just for fun. Because there is no advance plan, if there is any risk, sir, he has no time to take care of us."
"Besides... you also know that there is a villa to be opened in Wu County. Even if my husband is not here, you must be in charge of the overall situation. Without you, the people of Jiangdong may not talk to us well."
Yes, as Guo Jia said, Yi Xiaotian only plans to take Zhao Yun to Yizhou this time, and will send them back to Hanzhong safely as soon as he sees Cai Zhaoji.
During this period, Guo Jia, Huang Yueying, Lu Lingqi, and Ma Yunlu will all stay in Jiangdong and work with Sun Shangxiang to handle the matter of the Wujun branch of Youjian Villa, so they have nothing to do.
and…
"Not only that..."
Yi Xiaotian sighed, looked seriously into Sun Shangxiang's eyes, and said to her gently:
"The situation in the north is a bit complicated right now. Fengxiao's coming to Jiangdong will save some trouble. You must be prepared next..."
"Sir, what are you preparing for?"
Ma Yunlu was always very carefree. Seeing Yi Xiaotian pause, she scratched her head in confusion and asked.
"In a short period of time, we may not be able to go back to the north. Staying in Jiangdong should be the safest decision at the moment."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
Lu Lingqi frowned and vaguely noticed something in Yi Xiaotian's words:
"Sir...Northern, what happened?"
"I'm not sure yet. I just know that the failure of the campaign against Liu Bei will definitely have some impact on my reputation in the north. It's inevitable that some people will take advantage of it, so I asked Zhang Liao to send me a letter to Mr. Hao first.
It won't be too late for us to make a decision when the exact news from Mr. Qi comes back."
"Don't worry... General Sun is here in Jiangdong. Even if you will suffer some difficulties, your safety is absolutely guaranteed."
Yi Xiaotian said these words as easily as possible, but everyone knew well that Yi Xiaotian just didn't want them to worry. In fact, if even Yi Xiaotian is not sure about the situation in the north, it can only mean that there is an undercurrent in the north at the moment.
Surge, quite dangerous.
——
"What?
Yi Xiaotian is leaving?
when?
Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Sun Quan, who was still handling various reports in the Wancheng Yamen Mansion, suddenly heard the news that his subordinates were leaving. He was shocked and a little angry.
"Lord...Lord, we...we have just received this news. Mr. Yi seems to have specially asked someone to report this to you when he was about to leave."
"In addition...it seems that Mr. Yi also asked someone to bring you a message, saying that you, my lord, need to take care of his family during this period. After he has finished handling other matters, he will return to Jiangdong to meet you."
After hearing this, Sun Quan bit his lip and rushed out of the door in great annoyance.
He casually picked up a soldier's war horse from the street and ran directly towards the outside of the city.
Lu Xun, who came after hearing the news, only saw a puff of smoke and seemed not to know what happened.
By the Wankou River, Yi Xiaotian and Zhao Yun were ready to hit the road with a small amount of luggage.
Guo Jia and others came nearby to see each other off, and everyone was speechless. After all, Yi Xiaotian didn't like saying goodbye. If it wasn't for this troubled world, why would they run around like this?
Finally...the calm in the field was broken by a urgent call from someone in the distance.
Yi Xiaotian raised his eyes and was surprised to find that the person coming was Sun Quan.
"Yi Xiaotian! Wait a minute!"
...A moment later, Sun Quan came to Yi Xiaotian in a hurry. Looking at Yi Xiaotian with a serious face, Sun Quan suddenly didn't know how to speak.
"General Sun, what else can you do?"
"...I just want to remind you that the promise made by me, Sun Quan, will always be valid for you..."
Promise, Yi Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, but soon remembered what Sun Quan once said——
"Yi Xiaotian, as long as I am alive, there will always be a place for you here in Jiangdong..."
"I don't care where you are from. If...if you are unhappy anywhere, come to Jiangdong..."
Yi Xiaotian smiled, looking at the somewhat panicked Sun Quan, and suddenly felt a little emotional:
"Zhongmou, I've written it down."
"Take care of yourself."
With Yi Xiaotian saying "take care", he and Zhao Yun slowly left. Looking at the background of the two of them, Sun Quan was a little dazed.
"It seems...this is the first time you call me Zhongmou, haha...haha, that's it...hahahahahaha!"
Everyone was originally watching Yi Xiaotian leave, but Sun Quan's sudden laughter made everyone look sideways.
Rather than saying that Yi Xiaotian agreed to the promise, what made Sun Quan even happier seemed to be that Yi Xiaotian finally recognized him.
