Chapter 174: Plan Ahead
Cao Miao pursed her lips, rolled her eyes, turned around, and turned her back to Cao Su.
Xiahou Xu seized the opportunity and immediately said: "You really have the face to speak, and you actually let Yunliang a patient do such a thing." Besides, Taiwei is bent on marrying Yunliang, does he need to rob him? He doesn't have to rob him, and the captain will take the initiative to send it to the door, and he has to accompany a large dowry. β
Cao Su stiffened his neck and retorted: "Since that's the case, then why did he want me to rob it?" β
Xiahou Xu sighed, walked up to Cao Su, stretched out his arm, and patted Cao Su on the face. "Or you don't have a brain. Think about it, if it weren't for Yun Liang, who would have known that Taiwei would have set up the enemy, and who else would bear the responsibility for this defeat besides Da Sima? If Yunliang is the son-in-law of Taiwei, can he still say that? β
Cao Su blinked his eyes and said nothing, but his heart was obviously moved by Xiahou Xu's words. Sima Yi is cunning and cunning, and with Cao Miao as a helper, it will be difficult for his father Cao Xiu to take revenge in the future. This is exactly what Cao Xiu is worried about. He was in a hurry to come today, just to stop this. It's just that it's too difficult to hijack Sima Guo, and if you don't get it right, you'll get into big trouble.
He didn't dare to say yes easily.
Cao Su felt that Cao Miao was not willing to accept this family business, and he definitely wanted to rob Sima Guo, maybe he already had a plan. If you discuss it with him, this matter may not be without success.
"Yunliang ......"
"Eat, eat." Cao Miao beckoned: "It's not early, you can go back quickly after eating." If there is anything, I will talk about it later. β
"Oh...... Oh. Cao Su reluctantly responded, planning to talk after eating. I just didn't expect the rice to be so delicious that I couldn't stop at first. By the time he swept away the food in front of him and raised his head again, Cao Miao had already gone to the study with Xiahou Xu to talk. Cao Su wanted to come over, but was stopped by Zhishu and Ruhua, saying that this was a confidential incident and Cao Su should not participate.
Cao Su also felt bored, so he had to shout and take the initiative to leave. One step at a time, he turned around, hoping that Cao Miao would stop him. However, there was silence in the study, and Cao Miao had no intention of leaving him at all, so he had to leave in a huff.
In the study, Cao Miao and Xiahou Xu each stood on the side of the window, watching Cao Su leave, squeezing each other's eyes, and they were overjoyed.
"Yunliang, do you really want to rob Sima Guo?"
"You want me to marry her?"
"That's certainly not wanted. You exposed his conspiracy to kill people with a knife, and injured Sima Shi, which is equivalent to tearing it up, but he still wants to marry his daughter to you, obviously has a plan. It's just that robbing people is really too difficult. Even if Desi was reckless, he did not dare to agree. β
Cao Miao sat down and poured two cups of tea. "Robbing people is the last resort, but it is a last resort. Yuan Gong, I have one thing I want to ask you for. β
Xiahou Xu was taken aback, and wanted to refuseβbut it was not easy for Cao Miao to ask for helpβbut he couldn't speak. He laughed at Cao Su just now, and he couldn't admit it in a blink of an eye.
"What...... What's the matter? If you can help, naturally there is nothing to say. β
"Your Majesty intends to let me go to Jiangdong to take revenge on Sun Quan, do you think you can go?"
Xiahou Xu scratched his head. He didn't think so, but he didn't dare to say it. This is what the Son of Heaven meant, and what qualifications does he have to object? Besides, what does this have to do with him? Cao Miao went to Jiangdong, so that he had the opportunity to monopolize Yun Niang, so as not to be taken advantage of by Cao Miao.
"Yangzhou is the war zone that Da Sima is responsible for, even if it is His Majesty's will, Da Sima must agree, right?"
"Do you think Da Sima will object?" Cao Miao smiled bitterly. "Even though I helped him, he didn't thank me, and maybe hated me."
"Da Sima ......" Xiahou Xu wanted to speak and stopped.
For Cao Xiu, their family's attitude has always been very complicated. When Xiahoudun was alive, he was the official to the general, and he was the most powerful general in the Cao clan and the Xiahou clan, and he had presided over the southeast military for a long time, and Cao Xiu also had to give three points of face. Cao Zhao, Cao Su and others had to be polite when they saw him. Xiahoudun died, and this scenery was gone forever. After Cao Xiu took over the southeast, this was even more so.
To say that I don't have any ideas in my heart is obviously not the truth. But what if you have an idea? They don't have the strength to compete with Cao Xiu at all. His father, Xiahou Mao, would only make money, not lead the army. It was easy to become a general in Anxi and sit in Chang'an, but he was dismissed from his post during the war.
Cao Miao and Cao Xiu are not on good terms, of course they are happy to see it. But it is also unrealistic to ask them to come forward for Cao Miao and stop Cao Xiu's plan.
They don't have the strength.
Xiahou Xu looked embarrassed and in a dilemma. Cao Miao saw it in her eyes and shook her head secretly. Xiahou Yuan's genes are really not good, several children and grandchildren are more useless than the other, and Xiahou Yuan's descendants are really incomparable.

Taking advantage of the night, Long Lou quietly walked into Cao Miao's room and fell to his knees.
Inside the mosquito net, Cao Miao's voice was a little erratic. "How's it going?"
"Returning to the township, there is indeed a connection between the responsibility of the horse market, the responsibility of the family of the meeting, and the aunt Ren said by the township. I've visited the small courtyard you mentioned, and at least half of the rangers are assassins and killers under the name of the Huiren House. In addition, there are a few common faces in the horse market, who are subordinates of Ma Shang surnamed Ren. β
"Have you seen Aunt Ren?"
"No, she was alert, and she moved a few days after I showed up nearby. It shouldn't be out of the city, and it's still in the city, but I don't know where it is. Long Lou paused, and then said: "I heard that Yun Niang, who is under Aunt Ren, has arrived in the mansion?" β
"There's no news from you, so I have to retreat and leave Yun Niang in the house so that I can contact."
Long Lou was embarrassed and licked his lips weakly. Cao Miao continued: "Aunt Ren is not an idler, you have to be careful, don't force it." β
"Whoa." Long Lou breathed a sigh of relief.
"There's a mission, I don't know if you're interested."
"Please ask the townsman to instruct, but if it is within the scope of his ability, he will not refuse."
"You go to Jianye, inquire about some information, and find a few hidden places to hide."
Long Lou was taken aback. "The townsman is going to Jiangdong?"
"Be prepared." Cao Miao said lightly: "If you complete it well, I will have a chance in the future, and I recommend you to join the company." If you can't do it with 2,000 stones, you can still be sure of it below 1,000 stones. β
Long Lou was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed down to receive the order. Cao Miao handed out a piece of paper from the crack in the mosquito net. "After remembering it, burn it, don't leave any evidence. After arriving in Koto, act according to the plan. β
Long Lou carefully took it into his arms, bowed down again, quietly retreated, closed the door, and left through the side door under the guidance of Zhishu.
In the room, Han Dong turned from behind the tent, lifted the hem of his clothes, and knelt in front of the bed. "The lord is far-sighted, and his subordinates admire. With the sovereign's strategy, the chances of success are three percent more, and the school affairs department may become famous in one battle. β
