Chapter 304: Official Rumors

Lu Hong returned to the front hall and respectfully saluted Cao Miao.

"Madame said, everything is according to what Cao Jun said."

Cao Miao raised her eyebrows, nodded, returned to the table, leaned on the table, stretched her legs, spread her arms, and stretched her waist. After a long groan, I couldn't help but be surprised when I saw Lu Hong standing in front of him.

"Anything else?"

"That'...... What else does Cao Jun command? ”

"Uh......" Cao Miao looked left and right for a while. If it's convenient, bring two cushions. It's too hard, and it's panicking. Lu Hong looked at him in surprise for a while, turned around and was about to leave, when Cao Miao stopped her again. If you have a thin quilt, send one, I'll take a nap. ”

It took a lot of effort for Lu Hong to resist the urge to scold.

Nap? You can figure it out. This is where Mrs. Sun conducts her official business. But thinking about Mrs. Sun's attitude towards Cao Miao just now, she still obeyed her orders and turned around.

Cao Miao blinked and smiled secretly in her heart. It can be seen from Lu Hong's attitude that Mrs. Sun is very satisfied with his performance, and the degree of reliance has increased. This is not unexpected, Mrs. Sun is not a particularly smart person, let alone a person who is good at teaching her subordinates, Sun Qing and Lu Hong can get limited teaching, they all rely on their own accumulation of experience, and in the face of Zhuge Liang, an opponent, they are under a lot of pressure.

In contrast, with his basic training in intelligence analysis, he easily excels and is seen as a savior by them.

The limited content of the map in front of him does not mean that he is ignorant of the real situation.

In addition to Shi Caiying, he also has Han Dong, a foreign aid. After previous practice, Han Dong's ability to collect and analyze intelligence surpassed that of many people. He knew what information he needed, and as soon as he had the opportunity, he sent him the details of Wuchang City.

With this information, he can do well even if he is faced with a map that obscures most of the information.

To the south of Fankou, there is a Fan Mountain, where Sun Quan often hunted. Recently, there was a rumor in the market that Sun Quan once came back from hunting and met an old woman there. The old woman asked him what he had hunted, and he said that he had caught a leopard. So the old woman said to him, "Why don't you put the leopard's tail up?" And then it suddenly disappeared.

As soon as Cao Miao heard it, he knew that this was a rumor, and it was an official rumor made by Wu Guo. The car with a leopard's tail belonged to the emperor's guard of honor, which was to build momentum for Sun Quan's ascension to the throne. In connection with the recent martial law in Fanshan, it is not difficult to judge that when Sun Quan ascended the throne, some ceremonies would be carried out near Fanshan.

There is a large lake in the north of Fan Mountain, which is the place where Wu State built ships. Sun Wu was a heavy water division, and Sun Quan ascended the throne, and he was bound to build a big ship to strengthen his momentum. If someone finds a way to burn those ships, Sun Quan's enthronement ceremony will be half destroyed, and there is a high probability that it will be postponed.

Whoever wants to do something, this is one of the options. If Cao Miao were replaced, he would do the same.

Mrs. Sun naturally thought of this, so she was particularly sensitive, and once she found any clues, whether it was true or not, she had to send someone to check it.

Showing his ability, Cao Miao planned to slow down. Mrs. Sun is still very suspicious of him, and it is not a good thing for him to be too active, and he is more casual, and even very passive, which is in line with Mrs. Sun's perception of him.

The premise of borrowing strength is to listen to it. Only by finding out the strength of the other party can I use it.

Lu Hong brought soft cushions and thin quilts, and also used some fruits. That's a good thing. In this season, fruits are a rarity and are not seen by ordinary people at all. Cao Miao was very satisfied, and asked Ruhua to send some back, so that the Zhishu who stayed in the courtyard could try it.

Seeing Cao Miao even eating and taking, Lu Hong and the others were somewhat disdainful. The fruit was specially given to Cao Miao by Mrs. Sun, and Cao Miao gave it to the maid to eat, but she didn't know how to lift it up, and she was humble. 000 Literature

When Mrs. Sun received the report, she also felt that Cao Miao was too lenient with her subordinates. It's just a matter of starting a family for an injured retinue, and it's a bit too much to spoil a maid like this. She has always been in favor of governing the army strictly, even the maids around her, she is very strict, and she doesn't even have a good face, let alone spoiled.

However, this is Cao Miao's private matter, and she can't say too much for the time being.

Cao Miao took a nap and was woken up by Lu Hong. The interrogation has progressed, and some confessions have been sent, which need to be seen by Cao Miao. Cao Miao flipped through it, felt that there were not too many doubts, and simply asked a few questions to ask Lu Hong to remind the interrogators. A few back and forth, half a day passed.

Cao Miao looked at the sky outside and asked Lu Hong, "Do you care about the meal?" ”

Lu Hong endured his temperament. "Cao Jun helped me investigate the case, so naturally I have to take care of the food. Cao Jun wanted to eat something, and I arranged for someone to prepare. ”

Cao Miao was not polite, ordered several dishes, and specially ordered to prepare more. When Lu Hong saw it, he knew that Cao Miao was going to send it to the yard again, and couldn't help asking, "Do you want to prepare a food box, so as not to get cold." ”

"Clever!" Cao Miao nodded in satisfaction. "There are a few maids around Madame, you are the most clever."

Lu Hong stiffened his face and was speechless.

It didn't take long for Lu Hong to realize that he was too naΓ―ve and underestimated Cao Miao's brazenness. He actually asked Ruhua to go back and took the knowledge book. The two orchids, one on the left and one on the right, were talking and laughing, eating the food prepared by Mrs. Sun for Cao Miao while waiting for Cao Miao's pen and ink, but they squeezed Sun Qing and Lu Hong aside, and they could only set up another case, and they were inevitably disturbed when exchanging information.

Sun Qing's face turned blue again, and he got up and came to the back hall to report to Mrs. Sun.

Mrs. Sun frowned, didn't say anything, let Sun Qing and Lu Hong endure it, and see what tricks Cao Miao could play. At the same time, she asked Sun Qing to go to see Sun Luban, who was supervising the interrogation, and give her a breath, lest she be angry again.

Sun Qing went, and Mrs. Sun walked to the window and looked at the front hall. Although I couldn't see anything here, I could faintly hear laughter, and I felt a little strange inexplicably. How long has it been since you heard laughter in this small courtyard?

Or rather, when has there been a laugh, and such a happy laugh.

Eating and drinking, men and women, the great desire of people to survive. This young man really does what he says, and he refuses to wronged himself for a moment. Compared with him, everyone else is too tired to live, and they are not constrained by visible and invisible etiquette all the time, but they are not as comfortable as Cao Miao, who is suffering from madness.

Could such a bohemian become a spy? Could I be too sensitive?

A trace of wavering flashed in Mrs. Sun's heart.

Just when Mrs. Sun doubted herself, Lu Hong walked in quickly, looking nervous. "Madam, the princess has sent news, after identification, although the captured knights have Youyan accents, they obviously did not grow up in Youyan's native area, the accent is very unnatural, and they don't seem to understand Youyan's customs."

Mrs. Sun was shocked. "Is there any other evidence?"

"No, it is not yet possible to confirm whether they are from Wei or Shu Han. Madam, do you want to ask Cao Jun to take a look, he should ......"

Mrs. Sun's face was slightly gloomy. "You believed him so quickly?"

Lu Hong was startled, and said in a snort: "Madam, I think he ...... It really doesn't look like a spy. How can a spy be so presumptuous? You can't hide it. ”

Mrs. Sun felt reasonable, but still said: "Do you know that he didn't know what he did on purpose? Do not let him meet with the captives until absolutely necessary. ”
