With a twist of her wrist, Cao Miao easily removed the sharp blade in Aunt Ren's hand, raised her leg and kicked Aunt Ren's heel, took off her clogs, leaving only the snow-white silk foot coat, and then gently pushed it.

Aunt Ren turned around, sat down opposite, and lifted a trace of messy hair on her sideburns. Although the skin on his face is somewhat loose, his posture is very elegant, and he has a charm that is difficult for ordinary people to reach. Even if Princess Qinghe and Princess Deyang saw it, they would be ashamed of themselves.

Cao Miao ignored it, reached out and pulled out Aunt Ren's clogs from the wall of the car, placed them with the one on the ground, and looked at them carefully.

The clogs are delicate, with a base made of hardwood, carved grooves that fit the arch of the foot, lacquered, with belts and twisted flowers, like a pair of works of art. But what amazed Cao Miao the most was the pair of sharp blades hidden at the bottom of the clogs, powered by twisted tendons, which was similar to the Roman ballista. It can eject short knives and catapult them for long-range attacks.

Cao Miao tried it, and with a "whoosh" sound, the short knife shot into the wall of the car, powerful and powerful. If you replace it with a lighter short arrow, the range can reach about ten steps. It's so small, but it has such power, it's an artifact.

"Good craftsmanship!" He praised it, then raised his eyelids, looked at Aunt Ren with an embarrassed expression, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. "Auntie, can you introduce this craftsman to me, I want to ask him to make a few things."

Aunt Ren sat up straight, hid her feet with her skirt, and bowed slightly. "I'll let him come to see the townsman."

Cao Miao nodded and looked at Aunt Ren quietly. "There's one thing I want to ask my aunt."

"Please give me orders."

"Please tell some people, don't force me."

Aunt Ren's eyes rolled, and she said with a smile: "I don't know what the townsman is talking about......"

"You know, and so do they." Cao Miao reached out and knocked on the wall of the carriage, the carriage slowly stopped, and someone opened the door. Cao Miao got up and got out of the car, standing under the car, he flicked his sleeves, but he used a duster, and the soft silk long sleeves made a crisp sound.

Aunt Ren's eyes shrank, and she naturally stood up, changing from a sitting position to a kneeling position. "Whoa."

"Waiting for your good news." Cao Miao raised his hand and walked towards another carriage.

Xiahou Xu and Yun Niang sat in another carriage, and through the window, they saw Ren Niang kneeling in the car, and they were shocked. Yun Niang raised her hand to cover her open red lips and glanced at Xiahou Xu. "Young Prince, how did the townsman do it?"

Xiahou Xu was also stupid. He has met with Aunt Ren many times, Aunt Ren has always been neither humble nor arrogant, no matter who she sees, she is polite, but she has never felt inferior, and kneeling has never been a thing. In that courtyard, she was the master of duty, and no one could make her bow down, let alone kneel.

At this moment, his worship of Cao Miao is like the water of the Yellow River, gushing endlessly. But seeing Yun Niang's admiration for Cao Miao, his heart was sour, and he resolutely refused to admit it. "You're mistaken, it's just politeness." Xiahou Xu said solemnly.

Yun Niang blinked and smiled. She understood Xiahou Xu's intentions and accepted Xiahou Xu's self-deceptive explanation.

Walking to the next intersection, the two convoys parted and went their separate ways.

——

The manor is in the northwest of Luoyang City, in the valley of the Qianshui River.

Cao Miao vaguely remembered that the later famous Jingu Garden seemed to be in this location.

The manor in front of me does not have the luxury of Jingu Garden, but it is just a rough scale, but fortunately, the scenery is beautiful and it is very quiet, which is very suitable for patients like Cao Miao to recuperate.

Of course, it is also suitable for Xiahou Xuguang to be alone with Yun Niang and carry out the final attack.

Yun Niang's admiration for Cao Miao seriously stimulated Xiahou Xu. He was afraid that his hard work for so many years would be in vain, and in the end, he would all cheapen Cao Miao. Taking advantage of the opportunity to lead Cao Miao to visit, Xiahou Xu made a request in a twisted manner, hoping that Cao Miao would leave Yun Niang's blood to him. He spent so much thought and so much money, he couldn't even fight for the first night.

Cao Miao glanced at him with disdain. "As far as I can see, Yun Niang is far from being the number one brand under Ren Auntie's command except for her cooking skills."

"I know, but I just like it." Xiahou Xu begged: "Yunliang, whether it is your appearance or talent, you are far superior to me, and even the Taiwei robbed you of being your son-in-law." A mediocre Yun Niang, you can give it to me. ”

"Like it so much?"

"I really like it." Xiahou Xu nodded vigorously.

"How much you like it, and how much you are willing to pay." Cao Miao asked, "Are you willing to die for her?" ”

"This ......," Xiahou Xu shook his head. Death for her, impossible. However, as long as you are willing to give it to me, I owe you a favor, and if there is anything I can do in the future, you can never say anything. ”

Cao Miao stared at Xiahou Xu for a while and smiled. He stretched out his arm, grabbed Xiahou Xu's shoulder, and patted it gently. "Bo Yuan, why do you think I want to keep her? And why did you come here and take you with me? ”

Xiahou Xu woke up like a dream, pointed at Cao Miao, and laughed. "I see, good brother, this is the real good brother."

Cao Miao grabbed his hand and told him to calm down. "Bo Yuan, I can let it, but I can't force her to like you. If you just want her first night, it's easy, sleep with her tonight. As for Aunt Ren's side, with me on top, she didn't dare to do anything. ”

Xiahou Xu's eyes rolled around, and his heart was pounding.

"However, if you want to get not only her people, but also her heart, you have to put some effort into it."

Xiahou Xu shouted aggrievedly. "Yunliang, it's not like you don't know that I put a lot of thought into her......"

"You're not spending your mind right." Cao Miao interrupted Xiahou Xu again. "There are people who please her every day, are you still missing? To put it mildly, in addition to having a good family background, are you famous, talented, or good-looking? You have to give her what others can't give in order to really get her heart. ”

"That'...... I can't give her a name. ”

"Why can't you give it?"

Xiahou Xu smacked his lips, embarrassed to speak. He is in his early twenties and has achieved nothing but eating, drinking, and having fun. If you have no talent, you have no name, and there is no hope except for inheriting the title in the future. At home, he even has to ask his parents for pocket money, how can he have any status at all. An advocate girl, just play outside, take it home, he can't even think about it.

The Cao family and the Xiahou family are both from a poor family, and now they have become a royal family, so they naturally have to wash themselves, and things like Cao Cao marrying the Bian family will never happen again. Although Xiahou Xu can't be a celebrity like Xiahou Xuan and win glory for his family, he doesn't dare to defile himself.

"Don't blame your mother, it's you who coaxed you." Cao Miao said unceremoniously. "Think about it, if you are as young and promising as Taichu, your mother will prevent you from taking Yunniang as a concubine?"

Xiahou Xu was very frustrated. Of course he knew this truth, but how could he be compared to Xiahou Xuan.

"Do you want to take a concubine openly?" Cao Miao said with a grin. "Do me a favor."
