Tangshan has a very beautiful scenery. The house built by Yu Fan was originally prepared for Sun Ce and civil and military affairs, and it was very thoughtful. Yuan Quan's villa is the essence of it. It is surrounded by mountains and water, and there is a hot spring passing through the house. You can enjoy it at any time without going out. There are pipes under the house, and the temperature is higher than outside. Even in the cold winter, the house is warm as spring. At the beginning of February, the flowers in the yard bloom a lot in advance.

Mrs. Yuan’s life was rich and greenhouses, and off-season flowers were nothing new to her. The Yuan family was luxurious at that time. There were large houses in Luoyang City, and there were countless villas outside Luoyang City. Yuan Quan’s villas were not many characteristics for her except for their elegant and quietness. It was better for Yuan Quan to talk with him and cook and prepare some side dishes in his own hands.

After staying there for three or four days, Sun Ce never showed up.

Mrs. Yuan couldn't sit still. She had a task, and Yang Biao and others were still waiting for her news, especially Zhao Qi, who came by the imperial edict and the court was waiting for his reply. If Sun Ce did not show up, the task would stagnate indefinitely.

Mrs. Yuan was unwilling to let Yuan Quan see her uneasy, so she asked Sun Ce's whereabouts indirectly. Yuan Quan felt clearly in his heart, but pretended not to know, perfunctorily saying that it might be because he was busy training and would come naturally after he was busy. Mrs. Yuan was not easy to ask, so she could only wait patiently. After two days, Yuan Quan still couldn't explain clearly.

Before he knew it, half a month passed, and Sun Ce didn't even look at his shadow. Before he knew it, another half month passed, the trees all over the mountains and fields turned green, and the peach blossoms in the courtyard were blooming, but Sun Ce still did not come. After half a month, the peach blossoms inside and outside the courtyard fell and fruits were born, but Sun Ce still did not show up.

Yang Biao was anxious and sent someone to ask about the progress of the task. Mrs. Yuan was also anxious and asked Yuan Quan. Then Yuan Quan said that Sun Ce did not dare to come. He was afraid of being blamed by his aunt, so he could only stay away from him. In order to prove that what he said was true, she specially took out the letter, which contained Sun Ce's personal reply, four very beautiful words: Stay away from him.

After reading the date on the letter, Mrs. Yuan was amused and crying. On the day she came to Moling, Sun Ce decided to hide from her, but she was kept in the dark and was foolishly waiting for Sun Ce to come to see her. If she didn't ask Yuan Quan, it would be useless no matter how long she lived.

Mrs. Yuan was very depressed, but she couldn't get angry. Sun Ce was afraid of her and did not dare to come to see her. This was not a rudeness, but a sign of shame. She could not criticize her anymore and attack her progress.

Mrs. Yuan was happy, but she refused to surrender her identity. She took the initiative to see Sun Ce, so she asked Yuan Yao to take the relevant documents to Xuanwu Lake to meet Sun Ce. Two days later, Yuan Yao came back. Sun Ce saw Zhao Qi's memorial to the emperor, but he could not make a decision and planned to send Yuan Yao to Yuzhang to ask Yang Xiu's opinions. If Yang Xiu could not make a decision, then call Yang Xiu back and stay with him as a staff officer, and ask for help from time to time.

After hearing this, Mrs. Yuan became anxious. Yang Xiu is now the prefect of Yuzhang, and recalling him as a staff officer would be demoted. Regarding his son's future, Mrs. Yuan decided to surrender Zou Yuqiu and went to find Sun Ce in person. Yuan Quan could not persuade him, so he had to arrange for people to prepare a ship and go straight to Xuanwu Lake.

Sun Ce was training the navy. Flags were waving, war drums thundered, dozens of tower ships changed their formations in the lake, rushing back and forth, causing splashes of water. Meng rushed away the boats and shuttled between the big ships, as fast as galloping horses.

Mrs. Yuan had seen a tower ship in Taihu Lake, but the tower ship was slow and orderly when it was sailing in Taihu Lake, like a steady, polite, calm and humble gentleman. The tower ship in front of her looked different. The huge hull, driven by countless huge oars, cut through the waves and chased each other. The soldiers on the boat shouted in unison, their morale was like a rainbow, and the eardrums were intense, making people's hearts shake.

Sun Ce was commanding the stage. When he learned that Mrs. Yuan was coming, he poked out half of his body on the stage, waved at Yuan Quan repeatedly, and shouted a few times. The drums of war were fierce, and Mrs. Yuan could not hear clearly what he said. Yuan Quan attached to her ear and conveyed Sun Ce's meaning, saying that this was a military camp and it was not suitable to entertain guests. He was afraid that his aunt would be neglected, so he asked her to go back first.

Mrs. Yuan had been waiting for more than two months, but she was so upset that she was reluctant to go back. Yuan Quan had no choice but to wait aside. She took the stage by herself and came to Sun Ce. Sun Ce was holding the railing and inspecting the warships in the lake. Seeing Yuan Quan taking the stage, she couldn't help laughing.

"How is the old man?"

Yuan Quan said angrily: "My aunt is only in her early forties, how can she call her an old man?"

"She is not old, her heart is old, she doesn't know how to keep up with the times, and she thought it was thirty years ago." Sun Ce's smile gradually faded. "In two days, you will send her back and bring Ah Heng. Be with her every day. I'm afraid that Ah Heng will be as old as her and will grow old before she grows old."

Yuan Quan was a little embarrassed. Sun Ce has always respected the elderly and rarely spoke badly to the elders, especially to her elders. Such heavy words are extremely rare.

"Husband, I..."

"It has nothing to do with you." Sun Ce waved his hand, Zhuge Liang and others understood, and stepped back one after another, leaving only the two of them on the stage. Sun Ce took Yuan Quan's hand, pulled her to his side, hugged her in his arms, put her chin on her shoulder, and pointed to the distance. "Did you see the boat in the middle?"

Yuan Quan narrowed his eyes and looked carefully. Only then did he notice that the dozen or so-called building ships in the lake were not fighting randomly, but rather that more than a dozen ships were chasing and blocking one of them. However, the building ship was extremely fast, rushing left and right, and broke through the siege several times. She was very surprised. The building ship was large in size and slow in speed. When could it run so fast?

"This is Achu's efforts in the past two months."

Yuan Quan was both surprised and happy. "Has Achu finally found a solution?"

"Although it has not been finalized, there is a direction." Sun Ce smiled and relieved. He paused and said, "You go back and tell your aunt that I don't object to the advice of my uncle and Mr. Zhao, but I need to modify it. I am not going to Chang'an and I am not interested in arguing with those people and wasting my youth."

"If you don't go, who else can go?"

"Whoever wants to go?" Sun Ce thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "You go and ask your aunt, how about letting Dezu take my place."

Yuan Quan said angrily: "You haven't calmed down after two months of hanging her? Dezu is her only son, and he doesn't have the skills and strength of yours. He sent him to Chang'an to get a run. Do you want the Yang family's face?"

Sun Ce tilted his head and looked at Yuan Quan. "Do you think I'm targeting your aunt?"

Yuan Quan was very surprised. He was not joking when Sun Ce's tone, but he really wanted to accept the suggestions of Zhao Qi and others, and to send Yang Xiu to Chang'an to rule on his behalf?
