Chapter 392: Grafting

The corners of Lu Xun's mouth twitched. "Governor, is Cao Jun a guest of the Governor, or a subordinate of the Relief Camp?"

Mrs. Sun forced her composure and said in a deep voice: "According to the Supreme Edict, Meng Caojun will not give up, relieve me of the troubles of the guests, and assist in related affairs." ”

"Is this related matter related to Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng?"

Mrs. Sun was speechless. Lu Xun's question is not easy to answer, it can be said to be related, it can also be said to be irrelevant, different people have different opinions. If you admit that it is related, it is to extend the object of suspicion to Shu Han. In the future, Lu Xun will talk to Sun Quan, and the nature may be different.

Seeing that Mrs. Sun didn't speak, Cao Miao felt like a mirror in her heart. In the depths of Mrs. Sun's heart, Lu Xun, like Zhuge Liang, is an existence she fears. In front of Lu Xun, her confidence was seriously insufficient, and her combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.

"Uh-huh." Cao Miao clenched his fists, blocked his mouth, and coughed twice in a fake manner. "Madam, it seems that the auxiliary general has something unspeakable, so I still don't ask."

Before Mrs. Sun could speak, Lu Xun's eyes turned cold. "Cao Jun misunderstood. Although Xun is dull, he has nothing to say to others. It's just that the Dawu sub-officials are listed and have their own responsibilities. Cao Jun returned to Yi Dawu, but he did not have a relevant official position, so Xun had to ask one or two more questions, and asked Cao Jun for forgiveness. ”

Mrs. Sun was embarrassed and wanted to stop Cao Miao, but she was unwilling. She herself is not confident in front of Lu Xun, and she can't say too much, if she doesn't let Cao Miao speak again, this time it will be in vain.

Cao Miao smiled, although he didn't make a sound, his expression was a little strange, like watching a liar talk, obviously seeing through his deception at a glance, but not saying it, seeing how he made it up, with a trace of contempt, a trace of pity, and a trace of condescending disapproval.

Lu Ren was furious, and just as he was about to scold, Lu Xun stopped him and looked at Cao Miao coldly. "Please advise Cao Jun."

"Don't dare to advise." Cao Miao was calm and unhurried, and her smile was even brighter. "It's just a little confusing."

He is indeed not afraid of Lu Xun. He knows psychologically, no matter how strong Lu Xun is? It's not as strong as Sun Quan. Everyone is a fox and a fake tiger? Throw one’s weight around. I'm homeopathic, are you contrarian? What am I afraid of you to do?

What if you don't panic? What did Baba do when he came back from Xiling?

Lu Xun looked at Cao Miao quietly, unmoved? Make no secret of your disgust.

Cao Miao turned a blind eye and said unhurriedly: "Speaking of Prime Minister Zhuge coming to Jiangdong to ask for the alliance? Tongue war Jiangdong monarchs? A legend indeed. However, compared to before the alliance, he planned for Liu Xuande and divided the world, and this war of words was just more lively? The color is very lacking. ”

Lu Xun's expression changed slightly? The eyes that looked at Cao Miao were a little strange, and the arrogance of the high was also three points weaker.

Cao Miao saw it clearly, and her heart was more determined. Even if Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun cherish each other, they will not tell Lu Xun what Longzhong is right. This matter is still a secret, especially for Wu Wei.

That's his hole card. Have information that the other party doesn't have? It was psychologically that prevailed.

Just like Cao Cao didn't know that the allusion to Duke Zhou's marriage to Daji was made up by Kong Rong, and he mistakenly thought it was true? was ridiculed by Kong Rong.

"At the beginning, Prime Minister Zhuge cultivated and read Longzhong, and he lived in troubled times? I don't want to be heard by the princes......"

Cao Miao laughed "poof", as if he had told a joke.

Lu Xun and Mrs. Sun's faces were also a little unnatural. Now Zhuge Liang is the prime minister of Shu Han? Monopoly of power? His self-promotion in "The Teacher's Table" inevitably seems insincere. It's just that Cao Miao can laugh? But they couldn't laugh, they could only endure it.

Cao Miao coughed twice, and continued seriously: "Later, Liu Xuande looked at the thatched house three times, and Prime Minister Zhuge talked about the world, and when he mentioned Jiangdong, he said: The Sun family has Jiangdong, and it has been three generations, the country is in danger and the people are attached, and the virtuous can be used for it, and this sincerity cannot be competed with. ”

When Cao Miao said this, he stopped and looked at Lu Xun meaningfully. "Junhou, you can't fail to understand the meaning of this, do you?"

Lu Xun's face was calm, but his heart was turbulent. These words do sound very similar to what Zhuge Liang said, and they also coincide with Liu Bei's sending Zhuge Liang to invite Jiangdong to the alliance, but where did Cao Miao know about it? Could it be that Liu Bei has Wei spies by his side?

In addition to Cao Miao's sources, what made Lu Xun even more uneasy was Zhuge Liang's attitude towards Jiangdong. I always thought that Liu Bei and Guan Yu were treacherous and bent on competing for Jingzhou with Jiangdong, but Zhuge Liang was the opposite of them and advocated alliance and cooperation. Now it seems that Zhuge Liang is not willing to form an alliance, but is forced by the situation to form an alliance with Jiangdong.

In other words, if there is an opportunity in the future, it is Zhuge Liang's inevitable choice to go down the river and annex Jiangdong. This choice had been decided as early as twenty years ago when Zhuge Liang was planning for Liu Bei. The reason why it did not become a reality is only because the conditions are not met.

In this case, Zhuge Liang, like Guan Yu, has always been a potential enemy, so why not be vigilant and strengthen precautions?

On the contrary, because there is an alliance, Zhuge Liang is regarded as an ally and is not guarded against, which is problematic.

Lu Xun and Mrs. Sun's emotions changed differently. Lu Xun became serious, but Mrs. Sun breathed a sigh of relief.

Cao Miao saw it in her eyes and remained silent. He just made a little change to the words in "Longzhong Pair", and the effect was completely different. Zhuge Liang's change of "Tongque Taifu" to frame Cao Cao is Luo Guanzhong's wonderful pen, he moved flowers and trees, and changed "Longzhong Pair" to frame Zhuge Liang is also wonderful.

"I want to hear about it." Lu Xun said, his voice was still very flat.

"Dare to disobey." Cao Miao roughly retold the content of "Longzhong Pair", and made appropriate adjustments to the subtleties, the main purpose was to explain that Zhuge Liang's attitude towards Jiangdong was only an expedient measure, and then led to his point of view: once the conditions are right, Zhuge Liang will not hesitate to attack Wu.

This condition may be that Zhuge Liang captured Guanzhong and shared the world with Wu Guozhong. It may also be that the attack on Guanzhong was blocked, and Zhuge Liang had to move eastward, first take the south of the river, and seek to rule by dividing the river with Wei.

The monarchs and ministers of Wu were no strangers to the latter situation, from Zhou Yu to Lu Su, to LΓΌ Meng, and even Lu Xun himself, attacking Bashu, according to the south of the Yangtze River, and confronting the Central Plains, it has always been their dream.

What Cao Miao has to do is to generalize. Since you have such thoughts, doesn't Zhuge Liang have such thoughts?

Since everyone's minds are similar, how good is the alliance?

Since the alliance is temporary, what's wrong with the Liberation Camp treating Shu Han as an enemy country? If something happens, it is the Wei State, and there is no mention of the possibility of Shu Han, even if it is not said that it deliberately collaborates with the enemy, it is not cautious enough.

Lu Xun pondered for a long time and coughed lightly. "May I ask where this news is coming from?"

Cao Miao smiled, smiling proudly. "It doesn't matter where this news came from, your lord. With the wisdom of the prince and his understanding of Zhuge Liang, he should be able to judge the authenticity of this news. I would like to ask the prince, who thinks that compared with Zhuge Liang, who is better? ”

Lu Xun hesitated for a moment. "How can he be virtuous, how can he be compared with Zhuge Cheng."

"Then is there no one available for the prince of Wu, or is he not aware of anyone? Or ......" Cao Miao didn't give Lu Xun any chance to buffer, and asked: "Forced by a certain situation, I have to do it?" ”
