Madame Sun was surprised, and then realized that she had lost the upper hand in this silent battle.

All her reactions were within Cao Miao's plan. Cao Miao had prepared early, but she didn't know anything. She could choose to continue the confrontation with Cao Miao, but at the cost of putting Sun Quan in danger and putting him under the suspicion of his ministers.

She can not care about her own honor or disgrace, but she can't care less about Sun Quan's dignity. If she resigns in this way, it will seriously hurt Sun Quan's prestige, which in turn will affect her upcoming accession to the throne.

That was a big deal for the Fuchun Sun family.

"Zhishu, picturesque, there should be more than these two orchids around you, right?" Madame Sun took a deep breath and tried her best to calm herself.

Cao Miao smiled but did not answer. It was a surprise that Mrs. Sun was able to guess the truth so quickly and take the initiative to show her willingness to compromise. Compared to Sun Dahu, Mrs. Sun is the real tiger, and once she found that the situation was wrong, she immediately withdrew her claws.

"What exactly do you want?" Mrs. Sun's eyes were fierce and full of murderous intent.

"I want to live well." Cao Miao smiled at it. The more ferocious Mrs. Sun becomes, the more likely she is to compromise. "Start a small business, be self-sufficient, have no worries about food and clothing, and not be coerced by anyone."

"That's all?"

"What else?" Cao Miao spread his hands. "Madame has every reason not to believe me, but it won't take long for you to know that I'm telling the truth. I have a little bit of a way to save my life, but that's it, it's not enough to confront my wife. ”

Madame Sun pondered for a moment. "You said yesterday that Emperor Wei had forced you to go to Jiangdong, but you refused. Why? ”

"Because I don't believe him. It's more like borrowing a knife to kill someone. Cao Miao quietly aggravated the tone of the words "borrowing a knife to kill".

Mrs. Sun bowed slightly. "If I were Emperor Wei, I would kill you too. Possessed of great wisdom, brave and brave, dare to use himself as bait. With a clan like you, no monarch can sleep peacefully. ”

Cao Miao blinked. "Madame feels the same way? Then we're really in the same boat. ”

Mrs. Sun was slightly stunned, and then snorted. "I'm just a woman, how dare I compare with a talent like Cao Jun." She flicked her sleeves and turned away. "Go back to Shih Tzu. Before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, don't take a step forward, or I will definitely kill you. ”

Cao Miao raised his voice and said, "Madame, send it to me." You've gotten the wind and attracted so many assassins, what if I'm killed on the way? ”

"Just as I wanted." Mrs. Sun raised her hand, laughed loudly, jumped on the boat and left.

Cao Miao shrugged her shoulders and muttered "the most poisonous woman's heart", but didn't say anything more. He knew that Madame Sun wanted him to die at the hands of the assassins at this moment, and if it weren't for the revenge of his men, she would have killed him with her own hands.

Losing so ugly, she must feel uncomfortable in her heart, and she may be holding back some bad tricks. It would be naïve to expect a smile and a grudge.

The revolution has not yet succeeded.

After a short time, Shi Sha came to the continent to convey Mrs. Sun's order and send Cao Miao away. Cao Miao made a request, and the warship went directly into the river and sent him to Xishifang, without land, so as not to be attacked along the way.

Shi Sha looked at Cao Miao and sneered: "I didn't expect Cao Jun to spare his life so much, he didn't even dare to walk." ”

Cao Miao smiled. "It is very rare to be able to escape from the knife of Shi Duwei, so naturally we must cherish it."

Shi Sha was so angry that his face turned red, and his silver teeth were crushed, but he was helpless. She summoned a fighting ship and sent Cao Miao to Xishifang.

The fighting ship hung the battle flag of the Relief Battalion, and the passage was unimpeded. Cao Miao stood upstairs with his hands in his hands, enjoying the scenery comfortably, and at the same time remembering the Wuchang City he saw in his mind. There are not many opportunities like this, so it is natural to take advantage of them.

Although it was only a corner, he understood why Sun Quan would jump between Jianye and Wuchang repeatedly. Wuchang was clearly not an ideal location to build a capital and was more suitable as a military fortress. The terrain is low, and once it rains heavily, it is very prone to flooding, and the accumulation of years is likely to be destroyed in one fell swoop. Rivers crisscross and intact land is scarce. Lakes are everywhere and the land is fragmented, which cannot accommodate a large number of people.

But the military significance of Wuchang was huge, and Sun Wu had to defend it. As the western gate of Sun Wu, Wuchang not only had to face the Xishu down the river, but also had to guard against Cao Wei down the Han River, and it was inevitable to send heavy troops to garrison it. As a result, the general with heavy troops has become a hidden danger again.

How can Sun Quan sleep peacefully?

——

Back in Xishifang, Cao Miao climbed to the top floor again and saw the scholar Qin Bo again.

After eating deflated several times in a row, Qin Bo did not take the initiative to greet Cao Miao this time, but just quietly watched in the room. Cao Miao turned back and forth, and found that there were many more Wu army naval division warships around Xishifang, and the ships of ordinary people could not get close, and the possibility of communication through signals was cut off.

Although I expected it, I still had some headaches. Information is hard to obtain, and it's not easy to pass it on.

After sitting in the room for a while, Cao Miao asked Ah Hu to invite Qin Bo. After a while, Qin Bo came, his face full of flattery, and he bowed his hand again and again.

"Guangling Qin Bo, the word is less wide, I have seen Cao Jun."

Cao Miao waved his hand casually and motioned for Qin Bo to take a seat. He looked at Qin Bo with a smile. "Brother Qin belongs to the School Affairs Department, or is it the Trouble-Relief Camp?"

Qin Bo was slightly stunned, a trace of panic flashed on his face, and then he forced a smile: "Cao Jun is afraid that he has misunderstood......

Cao Miao didn't wait for him to finish, and directly interrupted Qin Bo, not giving him a chance to defend himself at all. Even if he didn't see Qin Bo's name in the script of his previous life, just based on Qin Bo's performance, he could judge that Qin Bo was eyeliner.

"I heard that the Shih Tzu boat is expensive, and there are often rich and noble, so it is difficult for people to live for a long time. Looking at Brother Qin's clothes, conversation and demeanor, he doesn't look like a rich and noble person, how can he stay in this Xi Shi Fang for a few days? ”

Qin Bo looked embarrassed and smiled wryly.

Cao Miao made up another knife at the right time. "Besides, I see that you enjoy living so much, this kind of fake public and private mission must be very enjoyable, right? Lu Yi captured my Great Wei spy and made a great contribution. If you don't have a little information available to report, how can you make a difference? ”

In an instant, Qin Bo's expression was very exciting. He hesitated for a while, and then arched his hand and said, "Cao Jun's eyes are like lightning, admire, admire." ”

"Let's talk about it."

"In the subordinate school affairs office, I am a colleague with Lu Yi."

"Who is the Zhongshu Order?"

"Cai Qian."

"Where is he from?"

"Runan."

Cao Miao bowed slightly. "In this way, you Huaisi people still have a little confidence in Wu State. I thought you were defeated. ”

Qin Bo smiled bitterly. It seems that the news of the weakness of the Huaisi system has reached the Wei State, but he can't admit it in front of Cao Miao.

Cao Miao paused for a moment and asked again, "Judging by your conversation, you should be a scholar." Stooping over school affairs, have you thought about the future? ”
