Chapter 54 State Mother Wu Meets the Bridegroom in a Temple; Imperial Uncle Liu Takes His Bride to the Wedding Chamber
Page 296 line 3
Xuande kneeled in front of Lady Wu and tearfully appealed to her: “ If you would have me killed, then let it be here. “What are you saying?” she exclaimed. “Armed men are hidden in the corridors,” he said, “what other purpose could they have?” The state mother turned wrathfully on Sun Quan and berated him: “Today Xuande has become my son-in-law; that is to say, he is my child. Why have you placed men in ambush in the corridors?”
Question:
When Zhao Zilong told Xuande that he was in a bad situation and that someone would lay an ambush for killing them, I thought Xuande was afraid in mind, but he didn't expression it, he cried told Lady Wu about this matter generously. I think Xuande's behavior is very clever. I think it made Lady Wu think he was Sincerity and grievance. Finally, Lady Wu told Sun Quan and her subordinates that Xuande was her son-in-law, and you guys could not kill him. Did Xuande not die because his high EQ practices influence Lady Wu ?
