Chapter 394: Suspicion

Lu Xun was shocked by Cao Miao's thunderous blow first, and then he was forced three inches in front of Cao Miao, his psychology collapsed instantly, and his momentum was flawed.

This question...... How to answer? No matter how you answer, it's a pit.

Mrs. Sun followed in time, stopped Cao Miao, changed the topic, and asked about Lu Xun's attack.

Although Lu Xun quickly adjusted his mood and regained his composure, he was still a little weak after all. In addition, he was dumbfounded by Cao Miao before, and he could no longer insist that this matter was only related to Wei State, and he had to clear the suspicion of Shu Han, so he had to say one thing and only the facts, and did not dare to deduce it easily.

The location of the attack was in the vicinity of Matun in the middle of the night. The other party has a building ship, and the heavy crossbow is shot from the building ship. Thanks to his caution, he has been wearing fine armor, so he has not been shot by the other party.

In addition, there are more than ten Mengchong, which are raided at close range. These people's attacks are very fierce, their personal martial arts are outstanding, they cooperate tacitly, and they are in a group of three, and they are able to advance and retreat. If it weren't for the disparity in strength, they would probably be attacked by them.

Even so, he paid for dozens of casualties.

When the other party found out that he was well guarded, they quickly retreated, so they did not capture the prisoners.

After stripping away the tendentious descriptions, the potential for this attack is even more likely. Not only is it unlikely to solve the troubled camp, but even the possibility of a spy from the Wei State has to be lined up in the back.

First of all, where did the building ship come from?

The building ship is not an ordinary ship, each of which has a detailed registration, and when it passes through a certain section of the river, it must be recorded. If there are no relevant records, it means that the building boat belongs to this defense area, and the general in charge of this section of river defense is seriously suspected.

Even if the ship has been hijacked, some information can be deduced from the time it was hijacked.

Mrs. Sun personally interrogated and carefully recorded, not only Lu Xun himself was interrogated, but some of his subordinates were also interrogated, and finally Lu Xun signed and approved it, and brought it back to the camp to continue the examination.

Cao Miao sat next to Mrs. Sun, barely saying a word, so well-behaved that people couldn't believe their eyes, and it also confirmed Lu Xun's judgment: Cao Miao is the knife in Mrs. Sun's hand, and everything he said was what Mrs. Sun wanted to say.

Or, it was what Sun Quan, the king of Wu, wanted to say.

The more Lu Xun thought about it, the more uneasy he became. He knew very well who Sun Quan was. Although they seemed to be wise and virtuous, he never dared to really think that he could make Sun Quan feel at ease and satisfied. The reason why this is so is simply forced by the situation.

Sun Quan wanted to ascend the throne and become emperor. After Cao Pi and Liu Bei successively became emperors, Sun Quan was unwilling to be only a king of Wu. It's just that at that time, Liu Bei first waved his army to the east, and then Cao Pi attacked Wu for many years, and he was overwhelmed, so he refused the persuasion of the ministers and delayed it until now.

Now that Liu Bei and Cao Pi are dead, it's his turn.

He succeeded to the throne at the age of nineteen, when Cao Rong and Liu Chan were not yet born. Now Cao Rong and Liu Chan are both emperors, he is still a king of Wu, and he is the king of Wu of Cao Pifeng, how can he bear it?

It was the use of Sun Quan's eagerness to claim the title of emperor that the Jiangdong people took advantage of the situation to squeeze out the Huaisi lineage, with Gu Yong replacing Sun Shao as the prime minister, the Wujun family occupied the highest official position in civil and military affairs, and the Jiangdong people represented by the Wujun family successfully occupied the court of Wu State, and will further expand with Sun Quan as emperor.

But now that Sun Quan's plan to become emperor has been postponed indefinitely, the situation of the people of Wu County has become embarrassing. Judging from various signs, the reason why Sun Quan postponed his claim to the emperor is probably because he is worried that the tail of Wu County will not be lost, which will affect the stability of the emperor's throne.

Sun Quan was unwilling to be a puppet, so he first canceled the edict to let him return to Wuchang, and then sent Sun Wei to lead the army, which put pressure on the crown prince Sun Deng. Now he is using Cao Miao to force Gu Tan to quit Sun Deng's mentorship.

There are all kinds of things, and everything points to the Wu Jun family headed by Gu Lu. Who has so much power other than Sun Quan himself?

The storm is coming.

——

Out of the Lu Mansion, Cao Miao shivered and looked around uneasily.

Mrs. Sun was in high spirits and said with a smile: "What, are you afraid?" ”

"It doesn't feel right." Cao Miao shrunk her neck.

"No, that's right." Madame Sun's vigilant gaze swept around. "If Cao Su really came to kill you on the orders of Emperor Wei, today is his best chance. If he doesn't come, it's not normal. ”

Seeing Cao Miao looking around, she said angrily: "You sit tight, don't show your flaws." ”

"I'm afraid." Cao Miao shouted.

"With me here, what are you afraid of? As I said, this armor is very strong, and you don't die so easily. She paused, and then looked at Cao Miao again, her eyes were not good. Did you mention my father's name in front of me on purpose? ”

Cao Miao was stunned for a moment, and then shouted aggrieved. "You're a sin you want to add. Lingzun is so commonly used, who can guarantee that it can be avoided every time? You touch your conscience and think about it, have you ever said this word yourself? ”

Mrs. Sun squinted at Cao Miao. "What you say is what you say, why do you find so many reasons? I'm just reminding you that Lu Xun is not an ordinary person, and he can't tolerate your nonsense. Such a mistake, others don't care, or don't dare to hold on to you, but Lu Xun has no scruples. If I really want to say a word to you in front of the king, you will suffer a little loss. ”

Only then did Cao Miao understand Mrs. Sun's intentions, and nodded and agreed, she would definitely pay attention to these details in the future.

The two walked side by side, discussing the outcome of the interrogation just now, while paying close attention to the movements around them, ready to respond at any time. Mrs. Sun hoped that Cao Su would come, and Cao Miao knew that Cao Su would definitely come. Although there is sleeve armor for self-defense, it is not foolproof.

What if you shoot in the face? A heavy crossbow is not a high-precision sniper rifle, and it is normal to be a few feet short.

Cao Miao has another concern. He has never figured out who the black hand behind Yinbo is, Zhuge Liang's suspicion is very great, and Cao Rong is not impossible at all. If Cao Ei wants Sun Quan to take advantage of the fire for him, then the news that he sent back Yuan Song will inevitably arouse Cao Ei's vigilance, and there is even the possibility of killing people with a knife to eliminate hidden dangers.

In the news sent back by Cao Ei, there was not a single word of denial, which could not help but make people suspicious.

He didn't mention these words to Mrs. Sun, but he couldn't help but put a question mark in his heart.

The group gradually left the most lively residential area in Wuchang, passed near Fanshi, and walked onto the causeway.

Wuchang Palace and the Relief Camp are at the end of the causeway.

Madame Sun strangled her mount with some disappointment. "It seems that Cao Su is different from his father Cao Xiu, he is a rat with no heart, and he doesn't dare to use such a good opportunity. How long is he going to lurk near Shih Tzu Fang? ”

Cao Miao looked at Mrs. Sun. "Maybe Madame's intentions are too obvious, it's fine armor and a big bow, and anyone who sees it will feel wrong."

"What then?" Mrs. Sun frowned and said, "Could it be that you and I are wearing regular clothes, only taking a few entourages, and walking horses in the suburbs?" ”

Thinking of the last time he went out with Sun Luban, Cao Miao was excited.
