Chapter 37: Sun Shangxiang is pregnant, the Yuan brothers go to war

Which girl doesn’t have spring in her heart?
Which girl doesn’t have a hero or a prince charming in her heart?
Sun Shangxiang thought of the old man Liu Bei, who was in his forties and had been displaced for many years, fighting and defeating many princes along the way. He was of the same generation as her father Sun Jian. Sun Shangxiang did not have any good feelings towards Liu Bei, and she also had a bad impression of Liu Bei’s cousin Liu Wu.

Sun Shangxiang even prayed in her heart that Liu Wu would not be too ugly.

“Tap tap…”

At this moment, a young man came out of General Zuo’s mansion and walked towards this side, attracting the attention of Sun Shangxiang and a group of maids.

The young man came over, and the more than 20 loyal and brave guards standing in front saluted Liu Wu and said:
“I’ve met my lord!”

“My lord?”

Sun Shangxiang and the maids were shocked when they saw the Loyal and Brave Guards saluting the young man, and their eyes were filled with confusion.

Aren’t these loyal and brave guards Liu Bei’s personal guards?

Why would he call this young man, who looks to be no more than 20 years old, the lord?

Soon, Sun Shangxiang and the maids all noticed the young man’s figure, his hands were below his knees, and his ears were slightly larger than normal.

“This… is this Liu Bei? But, how can he be so young!?”

Sun Shangxiang and the maids all felt very emotional.

This young man, with a figure very similar to the legendary Liu Bei, was called Lord by the Loyal and Brave Guards.

They immediately thought of Liu Bei.

But why is Liu Bei so young?

Sun Shangxiang looked at Liu Wu and was stunned.

Instead, Liu Wu walked closer and his eyes lit up when he saw the beautiful women surrounded by a group of heroic maids wearing long swords on their waists.

What a beautiful woman with both stunning appearance and heroic spirit.

“Liu Wu Liu Zihao, nice to meet you Miss Sun!” Liu Wu said to Sun Shangxiang with a smile.

“Liu Wu Liu Zihao!”

Liu Wu’s words directly pulled Sun Shangxiang back, and Sun Shangxiang immediately looked towards Liu Wu with her beautiful eyes.

“You…you are Liu Wu?”

Sun Shangxiang looked up and down at Liu Wu, her future husband. Although Liu Wu was not as handsome as she had imagined, his appearance was still acceptable.

In particular, Liu Wu has been exercising all year round and has a vigorous aura, which makes Sun Shangxiang satisfied.

“How do they address your lord? Aren’t they Liu Bei’s personal guards?” Sun Shangxiang’s delicate face suddenly turned red, and she asked Liu Wu in panic.

“They, because the whole Wancheng belongs to me, they naturally call me Lord!”

Liu Wu had a smile on his face and looked at Sun Shangxiang, who suddenly became a little shy, and laughed.

“What? The entire Wancheng is yours?”

Liu Wu’s words caught Sun Shangxiang’s attention.

Liu Wu aroused Sun Shangxiang’s suspicion and went into the mansion with her.

Sun Shangxiang was shocked to learn that Liu Bei was seriously injured in Xinye and that the capture of Wancheng and the entire Nanyang County were all done by Liu Wu.

After learning everything, he realized that it was Liu Wu who turned the tide and saved the Xinye forces, and now he wants to unite the three princes to fight Cao Cao, restore the Han Dynasty, and return to the old capital.

Liu Wu’s impression in Sun Shangxiang’s mind soared dramatically.

That day, after Liu Wu became familiar with Sun Shangxiang, he did not leave.

When Sun Shangxiang knew Liu Wu’s intention to stay, her face turned red with embarrassment.

He directly asked the maids to set up the battle formation.

Liu Wu waved his hand, and more than a dozen loyal and brave guards carried Sun Shangxiang and her maids away.

Just as Sun Shangxiang trained maids, Liu Wu also trained loyal and brave guards.

One-on-one, why doesn’t it work?

Sun Shangxiang was speechless.

Then, Sun Shangxiang gritted her teeth and wanted to fight Liu Wu with the sword again. Liu Wu saw clearly that Sun Shangxiang was indeed powerful, far more than the average weak scholar, but not ridiculously high, with a power value of 72 points.

Over the past year or so, his martial arts strength has reached 72 points after being trained by Guan Yu, Gan Ning and Zhao Yun, as well as through his own practice.

She fought Sun Shangxiang on equal terms.

In the end, Liu Wu won the beauty and carried Sun Shangxiang directly into the bridal chamber.

………

Just when Liu Wu put all his energy into Sun Shangxiang and worked hard to expand his family’s offspring.

Wancheng took Sun Shangxiang away in advance, and the news that the marriage between the Sun and Liu families was finalized was reported to Xudu, as well as the news that Sun Quan responded to Liu Bei’s offer of the title of Marquis of Wu and jointly attacked Cao Cao.

Sikong Mansion.

Cao Cao sat in the main seat with a furious look on his face.

In the hall, Xun You, Xun Yu, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and others all frowned.

“Damn Sun Quan, he only took the benefits but didn’t do anything. I made him the Marquis of Wu, and now he is using the name of Marquis of Wu to attack me. What a Sun Quan, Sun Zhongmou, I will never let him off!”

Cao Cao’s angry voice rang out, and everyone looked unhappy.

They were still a step too late, Sun and Liu formed an alliance!
Xun Yu stood up, bowed to Cao Cao, and said:
“Sikong, Liu Bei was able to form an alliance and marriage alliance with Sun Quan and Liu Biao. We may have to deal with simultaneous attacks from Sun Quan and Liu Bei. Now, we also need to worry about Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang in the north. If the two also decide to attack us from the south, then we will be in danger.”

Xun Yu’s words made the atmosphere in the entire Sikong Mansion hall depressing.

Cao Cao’s face also began to tremble.

He was not afraid of any of Liu Bei, Sun Quan, Yuan Tan, and Yuan Shang, but if the other side attacked from the north and south, Xu Du would be in real danger.

“Chen Lin has already gone to Qingzhou with the imperial edict of reward. Now we just wait for news from Chen Lin.” Cao Cao took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

The failure to win over Sun Quan made Cao Cao worried about winning over Yuan Tan.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another half a month has passed.

After Sun Quan broke out, he raised an army and joined forces with Liu Bei to attack Cao Cao.

Yuan Tan in Qingzhou could not resist Chen Lin’s temptation and finally made a decision.

Yuan Tan accepted the imperial award of general and marquis of Ye, and mobilized the entire Qingzhou army to attack Yuan Shang in Jizhou.

When this news came out, there was an uproar in the North.

Yuan Shang, who had already promised Sun Qian in Yecheng to join forces with Wancheng to attack Cao Cao, was furious and mobilized all the troops in Jizhou to fight Yuan Tan.

For Yuan Shang.

Yuan Tan succeeded Yuan Shao, was granted the title of general, and was granted the title of Marquis of Ye. He could not tolerate even a little bit of it.

The quarrel between the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang made Cao Cao in Xu Du very happy. His previous anxiety was swept away and he began to mobilize troops to conquer Nanyang.

Cao Cao was happy when the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang started to quarrel, but it made Liu Wu in Wancheng and Sun Quan far away in Jiangdong curse that the Yuan father and son were really a pair of dogs.

He couldn’t even seize such a good opportunity to destroy Cao.

Left General’s Mansion, meeting hall.

Liu Wu sat in the main seat and discussed food and supplies as well as inviting Zhuge Liang to come out of seclusion with Xu Shu, Jian Yong and Mi Zhu.

It was Xu Shu who reported that Zhuge Liang had finally returned from visiting friends over the past two days.

“Since Mr. Kongming has returned from visiting his friends, let’s go to Longzhong tomorrow and try to invite Mr. Kongming to come out before the war!” Liu Wu said to Xu Shu excitedly.

“Yes!” Xu Shu also breathed a sigh of relief. The war was about to break out, and he felt much more relaxed when he could ask Zhuge Liang to come out of retirement.

At this time, a loyal and brave guard ran in and said to Liu Wu, who was in the lead, in surprise:
“My Lord, good news, Madam Sun is pregnant.”

“What? Sun Shangxiang is pregnant?”

Xu Shu, Jian Yong, Mi Zhu and others were all shocked.

Sun Shangxiang has only been in Wancheng for more than a month.

However, a look of surprise appeared on Liu Wu’s face.
