Zhuge Ke touched his nose, but he was not discouraged. "In that case, I'll have to wait for next time. Where is Cao Jun, can I greet you in person and make an appointment in advance, so as not to be left behind? ”

Mrs. Sun glanced at Zhuge Ke, nodded, and ordered someone to take Zhuge Ke to see Cao Miao.

Zhuge Ke said goodbye to Lu Ren. Lu Ren smiled, watched Zhuge Ke get out of the hall, and praised: "Young and talented, he can still be a descendant, and he is worthy of the family style of a hussar general." ”

Mrs. Sun put down the paperwork in her hand and said lightly: "That also depends on the person, Zhuge Yuanxun is not so humble to everyone. ”

Lu Ren's face changed slightly, but it was inconvenient to attack. Mrs. Sun came and went in front of him, obviously deliberately targeting Lu Xun. Of course, her age is not as good as Lu Xun, but her seniority is higher than Lu Xun, and it is not a big deal to call Lu Xun by his name.

"Fei Yi was killed by a spy of the Wei State, and the matter has been ascertained, and he should report back to Xishu in the near future. There are auxiliary generals staying in Xiling, even if Xishu waves his army to attack, Wuchang can be safe and sound. ”

Lu Ren thought about it. "Can you please reply in a handwritten letter from Madame, so that General Fuguo can feel at ease?"

"It's not appropriate." Mrs. Sun said lightly, folded the paperwork again, pressed it with two fingers, and nudged it forward.

Lu Ren was helpless, stepped forward to take the paperwork, bowed down and bowed again, took a few steps back, and turned around to go down the hall.

The corners of Mrs. Sun's mouth were slightly raised, and she snorted. She knew there would be a reaction, but she didn't expect it to be so strong and so fast.

Cao Miao is a stone, if you throw it out this time, I don't know how many waves will be stirred up, and how many people will jump out.

——

Cao Miao stood in the courtyard, moving his body while looking at Zhuge Ke with a puzzled expression.

He didn't expect Zhuge Ke to visit, and so quickly.

Sun Deng invited me to travel with him? What is there to swim with him. It's not a person at all.

"Thank you for the prince's kindness, but my status is special, so it's inconvenient to meet the prince." Cao Miao carefully considered the words and sentences, and tried his best to make Zhuge Ke associate without being abrupt. As the saying goes, brain supplementation is the deadliest, and letting them suspect for themselves can trigger greater fear without leaving any handle.

Zhuge Ke said with a smile: "Cao Jun is too worried. The prince just admired Cao Jun's talent and wanted to ask Cao Jun for advice. The prince is benevolent and filial, the supreme is the choice of teachers and friends, there are many guests in the East Palace, there are many talents, and it is very beneficial to learn from each other, and Yu Cao Jun may not be helpless. ”

Cao Miao nodded. "I have also heard of the name of the prince. However, I don't read, and I have a lot of opinions about celebrities and scholars. If there is anything inappropriate in the future, please forgive the prince. As he spoke, he glanced at Zhuge Ke deeply, and then glanced at the courtyard gate.

Zhuge Ke's heart moved. Cao Miao wanted to ask the prince for forgiveness, thinking that there were words and deeds that were unfavorable to him, but he was not intentional, but was forced to be helpless. He has a trouble-relieving camp on his body, and there are trouble-relieving soldiers standing outside the courtyard gate, and the person who can force him is naturally Mrs. Sun's biggest suspicion.

Is he asking for help?

"Cao Jun rest assured, the prince is not the kind of person with a small belly, and he can also understand Cao Jun's difficulties, and he doesn't care. If Cao Jun needs the prince's help, even if he speaks, the prince will try his best to help whether it is successful or not. ”

Cao Miao is very satisfied, this Zhuge Ke is very good.

"Then thank the prince first. However, I am new to the city, and I have no enmity with Jiangdong Handsome, so I don't need help for the time being. In the camp to relieve trouble, everything is fine, the governor and the princess take good care of them, and I have nothing to worry about. He sighed, and stopped. It's not early, Brother Zhuge please go back, please greet the prince on my behalf, I am grateful. ”

Zhishu walked out with tea in his hand. Cao Miao hurriedly stepped forward to catch it and reproached: "Your injury is not healed yet, why are you moving again?" If there is anything, just let others do it, and you must not be tired. ”

Zhuge Ke glanced at Zhishu twice, his eyes lit up, and he was thoughtful.

Out of the camp, Zhuge Ke got into the car, walked only two or three hundred steps, turned the corner, and saw Lu Ren's car parked aside. He smiled slightly, ordered someone to stop, the two carriages stood side by side, the windows were facing each other, and Lu Ren was sitting on the car, looking at him quietly.

Zhuge Ke turned around and bowed his hand to Lu Ren.

Lu Ren returned the favor. "Did Zuo Fu see Cao Miao?"

"See."

"What did you say?"

"There are a lot of people, but they don't say anything important." Zhuge Ke said unhurriedly: "What does the auxiliary general have to say to the prince?" ”

"It doesn't matter." Lu Ren returned the sentence. "The auxiliary general just hopes that the prince will read more scriptures, temper his body and mind, understand the meaning of the saint, and not forget to be loyal and filial piety. The monarchs are sympathetic to the supreme meaning, and assist the prince with the right path, and he has repaid the courtesy. ”

"Teachable." Zhuge Ke bowed his hand and bowed again. "Lu Jun, please."

Lu Ren was not polite, and took a step first.

When Lu Ren was far away, Zhuge Ke ordered the coachman to start again and rush back to the East Palace. After returning to the East Palace, he didn't care about resting and immediately asked for a meeting. Sun Deng was waiting for him, Gu Tan was also there, and Zhuge Ke told him about it, including the meeting with Lu Ren, no matter how big or small.

After hearing this, Sun Deng muttered: "Zimo, what do you think?" ”

Gu Tan chuckled. Hearing this, this Cao Miao was afraid that something had fallen into the hands of Sun Dudu, and he had to be assigned by Sun Dudu. Sun Dudu has always regarded himself as a lonely minister, but the order of the Supreme is obeyed, and what Cao Miao wants to do may also be the meaning of the Supreme. ”

Sun Deng sighed softly. That's what he was worried about. There is only one person who can decide his fate, and that is his father, Sun Quan. Whether it is Mrs. Sun or Cao Miao, they are just Sun Quan's tools, and all conflicts are ultimately conflicts between their father and son.

The differences between them, in the long run, are a dispute over the policy of governing the country, Sun Quan is still the law, and he is still Confucian. From the immediate point of view, it is a battle for the throne, Sun Quan intends to step Mrs. Bu, and he hopes that his adoptive mother, Mrs. Xu, can become the queen.

Sun Quan intended to let Cao Miao Shang be a princess, which naturally meant to win over Cao Miao. Cao Miao should also be aware of this, so she had to say hello in advance to express her helplessness between their father and son.

"However, Cao Miao is not an idle person, he will not be at the mercy of others, it depends on whether we can find flaws." Gu Tan smiled slightly. "There's something that might serve as a turning point."

"What's the matter?" Sun Deng asked.

"Your Highness, Cao Miao went to the country for thousands of miles, and he had no relatives, why didn't His Highness invite Wu Chenghou to come forward and invite Cao Miao to kiss him. Tomorrow, the Marquis of Wucheng's Mansion will have a flower boat trip as usual, and His Royal Highness will also visit him as usual. At that time, it would be justified to meet Cao Miao. ”

Sun Deng readily agreed and looked at Zhuge Ke. Zhuge Ke stroked his palms and smiled. "What Zi Mo said is very true, and I also have this intention, but I am not as agile as Zi Mo. In addition to that, I thought of one thing that might kill three birds with one stone. ”

"What can you do to kill three birds with one stone?" Gu Tan disagreed.

Zhuge Ke looked at Sun Deng. "Does Your Highness remember the Long Beach case?"
