Xiahou Xuan arched his hands, stood under the porch, watched Cao Miao walk into the courtyard, walked down the steps quickly, and greeted him. "Yunliang, I haven't seen you for a few days, your movements are not small, I can receive your news almost every day."

Cao Miao raised his head, looked over the wall, looked at the flag that was blown by the evening breeze not far away, and was silent. Xiahou Xuan was puzzled and looked at Cao Miao's gaze. "This flag...... Questions? ”

"Taichu, why do you say this flag is moving?"

"Nature moves by the wind."

Cao Miao retracted her gaze and glanced at Xiahou Xuan with a smile. "Then you say, is it the wind or the flag?"

Xiahou Xuan stroked his palms and smiled. "They all said that you can only use your hands, but I never thought that you would also move your mouth. The flag does not move without the wind, and the wind does not show without the flag, how to distinguish it? ”

Cao Miao shook her head, stretched out her fingers, and tapped Xiahou Xuan's chest. I haven't seen him for more than half a month, Xiahou Xuan's body is obviously much thicker, and his chest muscles under his winter coat are very stylish. "It's not the flag, it's not the wind, it's the heart. If my heart doesn't move, even if the wind comes from all directions, what can I do? ”

Xiahou Xuan smiled and led Cao Miao to take a seat. "Are you intrigued?"

"I can't help it, I have to move." Cao Miao sighed and said: "I think that my mother is right, Your Majesty wants me to be loyal, and my father wants me to be filial, what do you think I can do?" ”

Xiahou Xuan already knew that Cao Miao should be sent to Jiangdong in the middle of the line, so he was not surprised, but he was a little ashamed. This trip is dangerous, it is polite to say that it is a lifetime of nine deaths, and it is likely that there is no return. But from the perspective of the imperial court, there is really no more suitable candidate than Cao Miao.

"Dess with you?" Xiahou Xuan diverted the topic.

"The conditions I just talked to Da Sima, the matter started because of him, I went to Jiangdong to take an adventure, how could he be a watcher."

Xiahou Xuan nodded. "With the reinforcements of Da Sima, you have three more chances of survival."

Cao Miao glanced at Xiahou Xuan. Xiahou Xuan only said survival, not success, it seems that he believes that there is no possibility of success, and he can come back alive.

He still has a bit of a conscience.

"Do you know a Lang official named Yinfan?" Cao Miao described Yinbo's appearance and figure.

Xiahou Xuan thought about it seriously and shook his head. "I've never heard of this person's name, and it's the first time I've heard of this surname."

Cao Miao was surprised. He originally thought that Xiahou Xuan and Cao Rong were familiar with each other, and he should know some about it, but now even Xiahou Xuan doesn't know the origin of this hidden treasure, which is too weird.

Of course, what is even more strange is that Xiahou Xuan was not surprised at all when he heard this unheard of name.

Cao Miao looked at Xiahou Xuan, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. "There's nothing you want to tell me?"

Xiahou Xuan lowered his eyelids and said faintly: "Yunliang, if you don't secret, you will lose your minister, if you don't keep it secret, you will lose your body, and if you don't keep things secret, you will be harmed." The fewer people know about such things, the safer you are. ”

Cao Miao nodded with a smile. Xiahou Xuan's words were in place. If you can tell him, Xiahou Xuan will naturally say. can't tell him, no matter how he asks, Xiahou Xuan won't say. If you have to ask, it will only make people look down on you.

"Okay, I'll talk about it later. Tell me, Your Majesty ordered me to be grounded, not to go to Yongqiu Mansion, not to go to my Buzhou Villa, why did you arrange me here? ”

"I'm just ordered to supervise you, as for why, it's not for me to ask." Xiahou Xuan said unhurriedly: "Yunliang, I don't have any villas here, but there is a small village on Yangcheng Mountain nearby, which is quite quiet, you can introspect there." ”

"Yangcheng Mountain?" Cao Miao rolled his eyes, and immediately understood what the Son of Heaven meant, and couldn't help but scold.

This operation is sassy enough. The dog emperor wants to borrow a knife to kill people again, and he is addicted?

"Yangcheng Mountain has good feng shui, and there are many people who build villages here, many of whom are old ministers of this dynasty. When you get there, be cautious about what you say and do, and try not to go out of the villa, so as not to get into trouble. When the time comes, it doesn't matter if I am affected, it will not be good if I am affected by the king. ”

"Your Majesty asked you to take care of me, but you didn't take care of me nearby, but you arranged me to Yangcheng Mountain, something happened, can you run away?"

"So you should be careful in what you say and do, and don't cause trouble. For example, Zhuang Cheng Zhongtai of Yangcheng Mountain Villa, who was still Xielulang not long ago, was just moved to the left because of his carelessness in words and deeds, misspreading rumors. Xiahou Xuan picked up his wine glass and said with a smile: "There is one more thing to remind you, because Yangcheng Mountain is not under the management of Luoyang Diannong, but is under the responsibility of the lieutenant of Sili. ”

Cao Miao scolded. "You bad cowards, you will not have a son in the future! Aren't you afraid that I'll be killed? ”

Xiahou Xuan was not in a hurry or impatient. "If you can be killed in Yangcheng Mountain, what is the difference between going to Jiangdong and sending you to death? Yunliang, you should take this as an opportunity to practice, work hard! ”

"Try your ......"

Xiahou Xuan raised his chopsticks and pointed at Cao Miao. Cao Miao immediately closed her mouth, held it for a long time, and spit out two words viciously.

"Your sister!"

——

Early the next morning, Cao Miao and Cao Su, accompanied by Xiahou Xuan, came to Yangcheng Mountain.

The manor is not big, but it is very quiet and the terrain is good. Condescending, with a great view of the scenery. The water is like a belt, lingering in the mountains. Although it is already a cold winter, the mountain is still lush and green.

Before entering the village, Xiahou Xuan took Cao Miao around in a big circle and pointed out the country.

Cao Miao saw the manor that occupied the best terrain and was the largest in scale, and sighed softly. It's fun to use me, right? Let me give you a taste of the sweetness and see if you can have the last laugh.

After walking around and getting roughly familiar with the situation, Cao Miao and his entourage came to the villa, and Zhuang Cheng Zhongtai waited outside the door with the slaves and maids in the village. Seeing Cao Miao again, Zhong Tai's expression was calm, and he saluted without humility or arrogance.

"I've seen the townsman and the captain."

Cao Miao turned over and dismounted, threw the reins of the horse to Ah Hu, and walked in front of Zhong Tai. "The mountains don't turn around, they turn around, I turn to you, it's really ...... Alas. He sighed and bowed. People are swordsmen, I am fish and meat, that's how it is today. ”

Zhong Tae returned the gift. "The township is serious. His Majesty's grounding of the township is also for the sake of the township prince, and a small punishment and a big reward will be of great use in the future. Tai Dai sinned body, how dare he embarrass the villagers. The townsman said this, and Ling Tai had no place to stand. ”

Xiahou Xuan also said: "Yunliang, Your Majesty said that the Taiwei is only seriously injured, and his life is fine. Moreover, you have an in-law relationship with the Taiwei Mansion, which allows you to introspect, which is also a means of preventing microaggressions. You can live in peace for a few days, study and cultivate yourself, and serve the court. ”

Cao Miao rolled her eyes. It's really a natural liar's mouth, and such insidious words can be said so beautifully. Serve the court? Isn't it just for me to toss the old Zhong Xuan and give the Ruying family a little color. I'm good at this, and you're satisfied.

Cao Miao turned around and made a big salute in the direction of Luoyang City. "The minister is grateful, and he will repay His Majesty with loyalty and sincerity."
