Cao Cao once said, "When you have a son, you should be like Sun Zhongmou." Indeed, looking through history, it is rare for someone like Sun Quan, who has been very intelligent from childhood to youth. Of course, this cannot be entirely attributed to Sun Quan's efforts the day after tomorrow, but also because the genes of the Sun family are really good. Judging from his father Sun Jian and his brother Sun Ce, Sun Quan was also influenced by his father and brother, and thus grew into a young talent.
Sun Quan was resourceful and bold, and he had always used people without doubt. When Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops marched south, Sun Quan also hovered between peace and war. But once he made his choice, he didn't waver anymore. In addition, he also completely handed over the military power to Zhou Yu.
You know, at that time, Zhou Yu's prestige in Eastern Wu was already very high, coupled with military power, if he wanted to take Sun Quan and replace it, it was almost no one objected. But Sun Quan was not afraid, since he handed over the military power to Zhou Yu, he rarely pointed fingers at Zhou Yu, but was bent on raising money and food for him in the rear. From here, it can be seen that Sun Quan's boldness and wisdom are really extraordinary.
We all know that when Sun Quan was nineteen years old, he succeeded his brother Sun Ce as the helmsman of Eastern Wu. Then some people are curious, after Sun Ce's death, how did Sun Quan "take care" of his sister-in-law Big Qiao and his four children?
Sun Jian was the founder of Sun's foundation, but unfortunately he was killed by Liu Biao's subordinate Cai Mao before he could complete his grand cause. After Sun Jian's death, Jiangdong's foundation fell on Sun Ce's shoulders. Sun Ce and his young friend Zhou Yu opened up territory and laid the foundation of Eastern Wu.
When Sun Ce was fighting Wu County, he heard that there was a pair of daughters in Jiangdong Qiao Gong's family who were very standard. Because the Eastern Han Dynasty did not have much respect for women, the history books only recorded that one was called Big Qiao and the other was called Xiao Qiao. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu said that they were door-to-door to propose relatives, but in fact, they were robbed in disguise. Sun Ce robbed Big Qiao as a concubine, and Zhou Yu robbed Xiao Qiao as his wife. Four months later, when Sun Ce went hunting, he was shot in the cheek by Xu Gong's protégé, and finally died of infection.
Rumor has it that Big Joe was heartbroken and crying darkly. Of course, when her husband dies, he will cry, but big Joe is probably not crying sun ce, but his own tragic fate. The thought of her cardamom years without a husband, the feeling of being alone was enough to make her liver and intestines cut off.
The placement of Big Joe is also a headache for Sun Quan. Sun Quan is a gentleman, how can he not salivate in the face of such a big beauty? However, his brother had just died, and his position was unstable, and he had no way to be the master when he did something out of the ordinary, so he had to endure.
So is Sun Quan good to Big Joe? After Sun Ce's death, there is no record of Big Joe in history. This article guesses that it should not be very good. Why? First of all, Big Qiao is the concubine of his brother Sun Ce, and if he is too kind to her, then someone will gossip. Moreover, put her status too high, so that people with hearts will use her to fight with themselves, which will threaten their own position. Therefore, Big Joe may have been properly placed by Sun Quan and lived an isolated life. Although boring, it was a blessing to be able to live in peace and stability in that era of war.
In addition to resettling Big Qiao, Sun Quan also had to resettle several of Sun Ce's children. When Sun Ce died, he left behind four children, three of whom were girls and one boy. Sun Quan's treatment of his niece can be said to be very good. All three daughters were married to a large family in Jiangdong, namely Lu Xun, Gu Shao, and Zhu Ji. The second half of his life is not only worry-free, but also a happy life. Treating the only nephew, Sun Shao, Sun Quan was not so kind.
Legend has it that when Sun Ce died, someone once told Sun Ce to let him pass on the position of lord to Sun Shao. Sun Ce was a little moved, but thinking about it, his son was only ten years old, if he became a monarch, would his subordinates use him as a puppet and do something wrong? Sun Ce did not want his family to end up in this situation, so he finally chose his nineteen-year-old brother Sun Quan.
As Sun Shao grew up, it was inevitable that someone would say this to Sun Shao or use Sun Shao to carry out a coup. Therefore, Sun Quan never stopped monitoring Sun Shao. At first, Sun Quan made Sun Shao the Marquis of Wu, and later after Sun Ying was made the Marquis of Wu, he changed Sun Shao's title to the Marquis of Shangyu. Although the treatment has not changed, the change of name also means that Sun Quan is still uneasy about his nephew. Sun Quan and his successors had been monitoring The Marquis of Shangyu.
After Sun Shao's death, the throne of The Marquis of Shangyu was taken over by his descendant Sun Feng. Sun Hao, the lord of Wu, executed Sun Feng on the charge of treason, and Sun Ce's direct descendants were basically terminated. So in general, Sun Quan is really not so good to his sister-in-law and children, but the reason is not that he does not like this big family, after all, he has a deep attachment to his brother. It's because I'm in this position. The pursuit of power had to make him a cold-blooded man.
epilogue:
There is no relevant record of the ending of Big Qiao in history, Sun Quan is likely to properly place it and make it go through the rest of his life alone, Sun Ce's three daughters are still lucky, used by Sun Quan to marry Ruyi Langjun, and Sun Ce's son Sun Shao, who spent his life under surveillance, Sun Shao's son Sun Feng was unlucky and was killed by Sun Hao. This is what Sun Quan calls the way to take care of his brother's wife and children.
