Chapter 101: Time to Run (Ask for the First Order)

"Do you know who is involved?"

Cao Miao stabilized her mood and looked at Han Dong quietly. He hopes to train Han Dong to be a confidant, at least an ally, but it also depends on whether Han Dong has such ability. If Han Dong is just a brave horseman, then it is not worth his too much thought.

Han Dong nodded. "I know a little bit about it, but I'm not very sure, so I rushed to ask the prince for advice."

"Tell me about it."

Han Dong said what he thought. When he received the task, he realized that it could be a pit. School affairs are the minions of the Son of Heaven, how can you not know that Biqiu Jian is the confidant of the Son of Heaven. But Han Dong has Han Dong's thoughts, it is true that the Son of Heaven trusts Biqiu Jian, but the Son of Heaven does not trust Sima Yi, if Sima Yi can be found, but he avoids Biqiu Jian, he can help the Son of Heaven to complete his inconvenient goal.

Who to check and who not to check, whether to report it or not, how to report it, the choice is in his hands.

"The Son of Heaven doesn't trust Sima Yi?" Cao Miao was surprised. He knew that Cao Rong was guarding against Sima Yi later, but the so-called defense is also a psychological habit, and it was later, why do you have such an idea now?

Han Dong looked around and lowered his voice. "Don't hide it from the prince, Your Majesty doesn't believe anyone."

"Really?" Cao Miao smiled. Han Dong dared to say such a thing in front of him, which showed that he really regarded him as a benefactor and knew everything.

"Your Majesty has been fighting with Emperor Wu since he was a child, and his heart is very similar to Emperor Wu, and he is extremely suspicious. After succeeding to the throne, the ministers deceived him when he was young, either on the grounds of the deaths of Emperor Wu and Emperor Wen, or on the basis of the teachings of the saints, and set up obstacles everywhere. His Majesty didn't believe them, and he couldn't do without them, so he could only endure it, secretly send more school affairs, and strictly supervise them. This time, he sent the school to Jingzhou to supervise the battle, but the result was that Lu Xun was sent to the battlefield in Yangzhou, His Majesty was very angry, suspecting that Sima Yi was deliberate, but he couldn't say it explicitly, so he could only find other reasons to beat him. Cha Guan Jun is a way. ”

Cao Miao was surprised. "Is this your own analysis?"

Han Dong shook his head awkwardly. "Most of it is Liu Gong's order, and a small part is my own thought, I don't know if it's right, and I ask the prince for advice."

"Liu Gong? Which Liu Gong? ”

"The prince should have seen the one who opened a shop in the gold market. I often ask him to sharpen his knives, and I can talk to him, and I often ask him for drinks when I have nothing to do. ”

Cao Miao remembered. It turned out to be the shopkeeper, who looked inconspicuous, but he didn't expect to have such insight. We'll talk to him next time we meet.

"I think it's good, I don't need to talk too much." Cao Miao looked at Han Dong with a smile. "It seems that you are not brainless, but you didn't use it before. Children can be taught, and the future is limitless. ”

Han Dong smiled embarrassedly.

Cao Miao raised her water glass. "Then I will replace wine with water and do great deeds for you. Wait for you to triumph, get a salary increase and promotion, and then celebrate your achievements. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." Han Dong bowed to the ground.

——

After sending Han Dong away, Cao Miao sat alone for a long time.

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. The situation is far more complicated than he imagined, not only the family is scheming, Cao Rong is also a scheming boy, even the inconspicuous shopkeeper Lao Liu has insight that he can't imagine, and none of them are good stubble.

The Three Kingdoms are indeed the Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger, and there are many talents. If you think you can walk sideways with a little foresight, you don't know how you might die.

Be a low-key person, or you will die an ugly death.

——

For several days, Cao Miao closed the door and did not even go out of the courtyard gate, so he studied and practiced martial arts in the small courtyard, practicing in the morning and evening. In addition to sparring with Ah Hu and others, he also began to practice flying claws.

Most of the houses in this year are not high, and Cao Miao can use parkour skills to fly the eaves and walk the wall without using flying claws. However, he has always been cautious and likes to keep an extra hand in everything, so Flying Claw not only practiced, but also practiced very diligently. After a few days of hard work, I have mastered the skills of use, and the rest is only proficiency.

Shi Caiying is fascinated by Cao Miao's parkour skills. She also practices light body kung fu, and she boasts that she practices very well, second to none among her peers. But compared to Cao Miao's parkour, she is skilled, and in terms of skills, she may not be better than Cao Miao.

The two have more of a common language, often play each other, and compete in the middle of the night.

It didn't take long for rumors of haunting rumors to spread in the Yongqiu Palace.

In fact, there have indeed been a lot of sneaky figures in Yongqiu Wangfu recently. There are not only the school affairs sent by Yin Mo to steal the jade seal, but also other people with bad intentions.

With the four orchids here, coupled with Ah Hu, a young master with small skills, no one can gain a firm foothold in the courtyard. If you are good, you can take a picture with Ah Hu and Sihu Ji, and live a trick or two. The ones with poor skills didn't even see where the opponent was, so they fell into the plot and retreated in disgrace.

Half a month later, Yin Mo admitted defeat and sent a message to Cao Miao to say, I don't have the ability to take away the jade seal, so I have to report to the Son of Heaven. However, considering the sincerity of the prince, I am willing to leave some time and give the prince the opportunity to report on his own initiative.

Cao Miao also knew that this matter could not be hidden, and it was impossible for Yin Mo to take this risk for him. He handed over the jade owl seal to Cao Zhi and asked him to give it to Cao Rong, saying that he didn't know who sent it, and he didn't know what the other party meant.

Cao Rong accepted the jade seal and didn't say anything, but rewarded some things, including 100 catties of gold, 300 horses of various brocade silks, and some utensils made by Shangshu. The reason has nothing to do with the jade seal, but pity Cao Miao for many years and express condolences.

The edict was passed on to the statue of the Tiger Ben Zhonglang General.

Zhen is the son of Emperor Zhen, Cao Ei's cousin, and the head of the Zhongshan Wuji Zhen family. The edict passed on by him is enough to show the importance of the Son of Heaven.

Although Cao Miao was the main owner of the reward of the Son of Heaven, Cao Miao did not show up, and he refused to attend on the grounds of emotional instability. Cao Zhi was in the palace again, and could only be received by Mrs. Xie and Cao Zhi. Although Mrs. Xie has no official name, Zhen Xiang often walks in the palace, knows the relationship between Mrs. Xie and the Empress Dowager, and does not dare to slack off, and treats her as a princess. As for Cao Zhi, he is even more regarded as a prince.

Although Cao Miao is the eldest son, he is a sick person, and the possibility of inheriting the prince is infinitely zero, and it is almost a certainty that Cao Zhi will become the heir. Seeing that Cao Zhi was increasingly valued by the Son of Heaven, and the name of the emperor's uncle was gradually opened, Zhen Xiang naturally had the idea of marriage.

Cao Zhi was instructed by Cao Miao before, and he also had such thoughts, so he naturally intended to express himself. He was originally cautious, he studied and practiced etiquette since he was a child, and he had the appearance of a humble gentleman at a young age. Zhen Xiang liked it very much, and after returning to the palace to restore his life, he asked the Son of Heaven Cao Rong for a decree, hoping to marry his daughter Zhen Xiu to Cao Zhi.

Cao Rong did not object, but he said that Zhen Xiu was only ten years old, and Cao Zhi was only twelve years old, and it was too early to get married, so it was better to wait two years.

Although the family affair has not been decided, the news of Zhen's intention to marry Cao Zhi has spread. For a time, there was an endless stream of people who came to propose marriage. Most of the targets of the marriage are Cao Zhi, and some are Cao Zhi himself. Everyone knows that he doesn't have a concubine yet, and if he can marry him, he will be a princess, even if he is older.

Only no one mentioned Cao Miao, except for the Hussar General's Mansion.
