Receiving Mrs. Sun's invitation, Cao Miao breathed a sigh of relief, and finally had a chance to get out of this situation of house arrest.

This also gave him a better understanding of Mrs. Sun's thinking habits. It's useless to be soft and show weakness, you still have to be tough when you should be tough, otherwise she won't even have the interest in looking at you.

As long as she feels in danger, she will face you squarely.

Cao Miao washed up, took Ah Hu and others to the banquet, and brought the knowledge book that had just recovered from his injuries with him, and only the school clerk who was seriously injured was taken care of by the waiter arranged by Mrs. Sun and stayed in the courtyard.

Seeing the arrival of Cao Miao and his group of five, Mrs. Sun showed a faint smile.

"It seems that Cao Junchen's heart is still unstable, and he still can't bear the loneliness."

Cao Miao smiled slightly. "Just as Madame said. If I can abandon the red dust, why should I flee here and become a prisoner of the Lady's ranks? Wouldn't it be better to put your hair on the mountain? He paused, and then said, "I can't lack a man or woman for food." So, Madame owes me justice. ”

The corners of Mrs. Sun's mouth twitched, and she didn't pick up Cao Miao's topic, but just glanced at Zhishu, which was not very convenient to walk. Cao Miao specially brought Zhishu here, obviously to show his attitude. She can take care of the overall situation and no longer pursue the matter of the whole aunt, but Cao Miao refuses.

Sure enough, as he himself said, he is not a person who keeps to himself.

Sun Luban, who was standing behind Mrs. Sun, lowered his head in shame, not daring to look at Zhishu's eyes.

Mrs. Sun invited Cao Miao to the table, got straight to the point, and mentioned the matter of the picturesque confrontation with Zhu Ying.

Cao Miao turned her head and glanced at the picturesque, although she didn't say anything, she was not angry. Ruhua leaned over to ask for guilt, indicating that he was only invited by Sun Xiuzhi, and with a little allocation, he did not formally accept the invitation. Cao Miao snorted and said lightly: "When I go back, I will receive the punishment myself." ”

"Whoa." The picture replied in a low voice, with a look of fear in his eyes, and even his body trembled a little.

Mrs. Sun looked at Cao Miao and Ruhua with interest, but did not say a word. Sun Luban wanted to explain a few words for Ruhua, looked at Mrs. Sun, and closed his mouth again. Waiting for the wine and food to come up, Mrs. Sun raised her wine glass and saluted Cao Miao.

"The army was rudimentary, and there was no dance and music. I have heard that Cao Jun is very good for a long time, can you please show Cao Jun his skills and open my eyes? ”

Cao Miao slowly put down her wine glass and smiled faintly. "I heard that Madame's archery skills are amazing, can you ask Madame to show her magic skills and also open my eyes?"

"Bold!" A servant girl standing behind Mrs. Sun shouted angrily and stepped forward with a knife.

Cao Miao snorted and laughed dumbly. He picked up his glass and looked around calmly. "It's better to be happy alone than to be happy, why don't you and I each pick one person and practice before the banquet to help the wine, how about it? If Madame is interested, we can also make a bet, and the bet is up to you. ”

Mrs. Sun looked at Cao Miao with a smile, but there was no trace of a smile in her eyes. "Cao Jun is so sure?"

"I don't have any means to save my life, do I dare to come?" Cao Miao's eyes were even more smiling, and he said unhurriedly: "I don't have a strategist like Zhuge Liang by my side, nor a fierce general like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun, what should I do if someone wants to be unfavorable to me?" ”

The smile on Mrs. Sun's face froze, and her eyes became extremely cold. Several maidservants shouted angrily in unison, and the sound of long knives coming out of their sheaths came and went, and the atmosphere in the hall instantly dropped to freezing.

Sun Luban's face turned pale with fright, and he wanted to dissuade but didn't dare, so he had to give Cao Miao a look and ask him to restrain himself a little and not to stimulate Mrs. Sun. The matter of Mrs. Sun and pro-Liu Bei is taboo, and no one dares to do it in front of Mrs. Sun, or in this tone of death.

Cao Miao ignored her, staring intently at Mrs. Sun's murderous eyes, not letting go of the slightest.

This sentence was not said casually, he deliberately said it so slowly, just to let Mrs. Sun hear every name clearly, so that he could see her flaws.

Among these people, there must be characters that make Mrs. Sun remember deeply, and even characters that she subconsciously does not want to mention.

To deal with a ruthless person like Mrs. Sun, we must not use superficial means like dealing with Sun Luban, we must start from the depths of her heart. Only by finding her psychological defense line can it be possible to truly defeat her and then control her.

Now he knew who the man was. Although Mrs. Sun's expression was well controlled and she didn't reveal too much information, she still couldn't hide his professional eyes.

In fact, he felt something last time, but he wasn't sure about it. Now he can be sure. Mrs. Sun had someone in her heart that she didn't want to mention, and even when she heard his name, she couldn't help but be nervous.

He smiled. Fight me? You're too amateurish.

Seeing the smile on Cao Miao's face, Mrs. Sun immediately realized that she had lost her temper, instantly regained her composure, and waved her hand. The maidservants returned their knives to their sheaths with a "swish" and retreated. Although there was no coordination, their movements were neat and consistent, as if they were one person.

"If you say too much, you will lose, Cao Jun should be careful of his tongue and invite trouble."

"From ancient times to the present, it has never been the tongue that invites trouble, but the weak." Cao Miao retracted his gaze and said lightly: "Without strength, no matter how cautious you are in your words and deeds, no matter how low your posture is and how soft your body is, it will not help." Madame, did you say yes? ”

"It seems that Cao Jun's strength is very strong, can you let me see it?"

"Don't dare, if Madam is interested, I can accompany you twice." Cao Miao looked at her hands. "I don't dare to say whether I win or lose, as Mrs.'s opponent, I still have the qualifications to ask myself. Madame may be able to defeat me, but it will not be easy, and she will even have to be prepared to lose both. ”

Mrs. Sun's eyes shrank. Cao Miao was aggressive and straightforwardly clarified the bottom line, which made it difficult for her to deal with.

She could kill Cao Miao, but was there any need to burn the jade, or even risk the assassin re-entering the Wuchang Palace?

"Cao Jun's words are serious, he just talks about martial arts, why should he lose both?" Madame Sun quickly weighed the pros and cons, smiled, and raised her wine glass. "You have come thousands of miles away, supporting my Da Wu, how can my Da Wu refuse to leave the door? The courtesy just now was not careful, and I ask Cao Jun to forgive me. ”

As she spoke, she turned her face sideways and shouted in a deep voice: "Be rude to your guests, go down by yourself, and receive twenty lashes each." ”

"Whoa." Several handmaidens shouted in unison, lined up to leave their seats, and strode down the hall. Although they were punished, they held their heads high and their momentum was awe-inspiring, as if even if Mrs. Sun asked them to die, they would not hesitate.

Cao Miao smiled silently. Seeing these handmaidens go down the court, they took off their robes in the court, wearing only small clothes, and were really whipped twenty times, so that the small clothes were torn and the blood was dripping on their backs, but no one cried out in pain. After briefly treating the wounds, they changed into new clothes, put on armor again, and stood upright behind Madame Sun.

Cao Miao applauded. "Madame is a good soldier, admire, admire."

Mrs. Sun said lightly: "Cao Jun is a guest from afar, so it should be so." Please drink this cup to the fullest, the unpleasantness of the past will be revealed, how about it? ”

Cao Miao also raised her glass. "It is certainly much happier to be friends with my wife than to be my wife's enemy. I can't ask for it. ”

Mrs. Sun drank a glass of wine. "Then can I trouble Cao Jun with something?"

"Whatever you can, you can." Cao Miao raised his glass and bowed again. "Madame, please."

"Please Cao Jun assist me in teaching the martial arts of the soldiers in the battalion from the female Luban. Can? ”

Cao Miao pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement. "Yes, but before that, please give me an explanation."

Mrs. Sun stared at Cao Miao for a moment and smiled. "Yes. It's just that you have to prove your strength first and see if it's worth the price. ”
