For Cao Miao, Sima Shi was just a trouble on the surface, and what he really had to worry about was Zhuge Liang.

Rumors that Liu Chan is Zhuge Liang's kind are just a joke. Not to mention that there is no chance to spread it yet, even if it really spreads, Zhuge Liang will not take it to heart. There are rumors every year, how many people are really knocked down by rumors?

What's more, it's a strongman like Zhuge Liang.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang must have ulterior motives for giving face like this, and the biggest possibility is that Zhuge Liang received his hints.

With the current situation of Wu State, what is the use of horse armor? They simply did not have strong enough war horses to serve as armored horses, and there was only one possibility for horse armor: to go to Liaodong, and to occupy Liaodong.

Wu used troops in Liaodong, which could not only make trouble for Wei, but also reduce the threat to Shu Han, so why not?

The three kingdoms were divided, and Wei was the strongest. If he can find some trouble for the Wei State, even if it costs five hundred sets of ordnance, even if it is possible to cultivate a strong opponent, Zhuge Liang will give it a try.

Because he has too few options. Careful calculation, even at the expense of long-term interests, is his last resort.

We can't cover it with artillery fire, so we can only pursue interspersed detours, tap the potential as much as possible, and give full play to human initiative.

That's why he specifically asked for horse armor in the first place.

Zhuge Liang ate the bait, but he couldn't help but prevent Zhuge Liang from borrowing his strength to push it, and even rebelled.

Back then, Sun Quan gambled on the national fortune and fought with all his might, Zhou Yu fought on the bloody battlefield for more than a year before he took Jiangling, but in the end he cheapened Liu Bei. If you want to say that there is no credit for Zhuge Liang's strategizing, who believes it?

Zhuge Liang doesn't play conspiracy and says both, playing Yangmou is definitely a peerless master.

Cao Miao chatted with Mrs. Sun intentionally or unintentionally.

Mrs. Sun knew the difficulties of Sun Quan's decision to face Cao Cao at the beginning, and also knew that the twists and turns of borrowing Jingzhou and seizing Jingzhou later, coupled with the humiliation caused by the interception of Hengjiang, had always had a bad impression of the monarchs and ministers of Shu Han. There was no need for Cao Miao to say more, she had doubts about Zhuge Liang's cooperation.

"What might be the conspiracy?" After Mrs. Sun finished eating the pears, she asked someone to bring water to wash her hands. The pears are really sweet and the juice is sticky.

"Not a conspiracy? It's a conspiracy. Cao Miao said.

"Yangmou?"

Cao Miao nodded. "Liaodong is not so easy to fight. Originally, King Wu might not have high hopes, as long as he could rob people back. But now that he has 500 sets of ordnance, King Wu will inevitably have ambitions. For Wu Guo? Liaodong, which produces good horses, is too tempting. Once King Wu had this idea? Zhuge Liang is likely to take advantage of the situation? Fueling the fire, until Wu Guo's mud feet were deep and he couldn't get out of Liaodong. ”

Mrs. Sun thought about it carefully. "You're right? This is very much in line with Zhuge Liang's style of acting. So what do we do? ”

"There are two choices: one is that we make a false move? The goal is only to rob people. After robbing people, send them back to Jiangdong, and we are free overseas? From now on, I don't ask about the rights and wrongs of the Central Plains. ”

"What else?"

"Will it be calculated? Buy more ordnance from Shu Han? Capture Liaodong. Relying on Jiangdong at that time? Based in Liaodong? It doesn't have to be impossible to build a career. ”

Mrs. Sun raised her eyebrows slightly? It's not a smile. "Are you sure?"

"I have a killer feature they don't know about. Everyone knows the strength on the bright side, and the strength hidden in the dark can determine the key to victory or defeat. No matter how smart Zhuge Liang is, how many secrets does he know in my head? ”

"Look at what you can do." Mrs. Sun pursed her lips and couldn't help laughing.

"There's something I want you to help with."

"What's the matter?"

"Luoyang sent an envoy? You may have to call me back. ”

Mrs. Sun was slightly stunned? Turn your head to look out the window at the long street? Cao Su, who sold pears, is gone. She looked back at Cao Miao.

"The man ......"

Cao Miao interrupted her in time. "We've got an appointment."

Mrs. Sun smacked her lips? A little unwilling. She sat here, observing Cao Miao all the time, and secretly sent someone too. Did she see the man selling pears? But he never thought that Cao Miao would connect with his subordinates here, and missed a good opportunity in vain.

"You say."

"I don't want to go back, you kill that messenger."

"If you don't have an official status, I can help." Mrs. Sun smiled. "But you don't want to do it yourself, you want to come to the other party with an official identity."

Cao Miao nodded. "So you can't help?"

"You can help, but it's just a little more troublesome. In case it is not handled cleanly and provokes the two countries to fight each other, I can't explain to the Supreme, and the gains outweigh the losses. Mrs. Sun raised her eyebrows. You're right? ”

Cao Miao raised her hand and pointed at Mrs. Sun, baring her teeth. "Okay, when I didn't say it, I'll figure it out myself. The big deal is that I cut off my back road, and I can't go back to Luoyang in the future, and I don't plan to go back anyway. When the new ship is built, if you don't want to go to sea with me, give me a sea boat, and sell it......"

Mrs. Sun leaned over, stretched out her hand to cover Cao Miao's mouth, and said angrily, "You are not allowed to say that." I'll do it for you. Who was the messenger, how many followers were there, which way to go, and when did it arrive? ”

"The others are still unclear, only that the mastermind is Sima Shi."

"Who is Sima Shi?"

"Sima Yi's eldest son." Cao Miao explained a little. "But you have to be careful, you can't hurt Xiahou Hui, that is, Sima Shi's wife. She's a relative of mine, well, the kind that's very close. ”

"I see." Mrs. Sun thought for a while, and then said, "This Xiahou Hui ...... Just your relatives? ”

Cao Miao grinned. "Or my good look, do you believe it?"

Mrs. Sun squinted at Cao Miao, crooked the corners of her mouth, and snorted. "It's strange to believe you."

Cao Miao smiled and turned her head to look out the window. "You must be careful, Master Sima's family has a strong family history, many tricks, and the city government is very deep. However, compared with Xiahou Hui, saying that he is a pig is all exalting him. You just need to ensure Xiahou Hui's safety, don't listen to anything else, and don't tell her the best words, so as not to be deceived by her and mess up your mind. ”

"So powerful? Have you been deceived by her? ”

"Yes, when I was in Luoyang, I conspired with Cao Su, originally wanting to kill Master Sima and eliminate harm for the imperial court. It's this Xiahou Hui, it's easy to say, I have to marry Sima Shi's sister Sima Guo as my wife, and in the end I am in a dilemma. I estimated that she came with her this time, and she wanted to know it with affection and reason, in a word, she did everything possible to lure me back to Luoyang, so that her good husband Sima Shi could make meritorious contributions. ”

As Cao Miao complained, Mrs. Sun's brows gradually furrowed, and murderous aura gathered between her eyebrows.

Cao Miao reminded again. "I'll remind you again, you can't kill her."

"Don't worry, I won't kill her." Mrs. Sun sneered: "However, as long as she sets foot on the land of Jiangdong, she will not think of going back." Do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you, don't you understand such a simple truth? Since she forced you with marriage, I will treat her in the way of others, and let her marry someone she does not want to marry. ”

Cao Miao is in the middle of it.

With Mrs. Sun's words, this is done.

Who makes her hate arranged marriages the most.
