"Matters between women."

Cao Sheng's face is very thin, his voice is relatively low when he speaks, and he likes to use affirmative sentences, sometimes with a strong personal color.

Sometimes it gives people the illusion that seeing him is like seeing a certain onmyoji.

He likes to talk to people calmly, and sometimes has a little expression, such as now, with a faint bitter smile on his face:

"In Luoyang, the women of wealthy and aristocratic families often held poetry parties, and they treated each other to each other, and they all dressed up as a festival. Don't underestimate these women, they can sometimes do great things. Every time this kind of gathering is held, many people crowd their heads and want their women to blend in with this circle. ”

Cao Sheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "But if you don't have the same high status, it's better not to squeeze in, either you can't squeeze in, or you will be humiliated." ”

Chen Mu nodded: "'Lady diplomacy' and 'circle culture' have always been the traditions of our clan. ”

Cao Sheng was very interested in the word "lady diplomacy", tasted it, smiled and said:

That's pretty much what it means. The Gongsun family has always been suppressed and monitored, but now there is a martial champion, and he has stepped into the threshold of the Zhao Tong family of the Great Pillar Kingdom. At this time, the women of the Gongsun family thought that they were already qualified to associate with those wealthy families, so they also put on costumes, went in and out of major venues, and walked into the homes of major wealthy families. But the reality doesn't seem to be like that. There is also a relationship of contempt between the traditional wealthy and the newly wealthy families. Especially the royal family and the three major gate valves. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Sheng stood up, walked to the marching box, removed a bunch of keys from his waist, accurately found the corresponding key and inserted it into the lock hole, and with a bang, the lock snapped open, lifted the lid, and took out a bottle of wine from it.

Half turned around and shook the white porcelain wine bottle at Chen Mu.

Chen Mu nodded.

Cao Sheng took out two more delicate small porcelain cups, poured them on each other, and then continued: "One person has ascended to heaven, so the eldest lady of the Gongsun family has also mixed into the upper class, and naturally participates in some poetry parties. What is not beautiful is that at a drinking party, Mrs. Gongsun was scolded by Zhao Ji's aunt in front of everyone. ”

"Why?"

"Because she said the wrong thing." Cao Sheng's expression was serious: "She actually said that the royal family should be united." ”

Chen Mu was speechless.

Cao Shengdao: "Can this be said directly?" Is it a topic that women should talk about? No, they should hint at what they mean in topics like rouge gouache and parental shortening. But, this is not the real reason why she was scolded, the real reason is that her shoulders are low. If it was Mrs. Zhao Tong, Zhao Ji's aunt would never dare to be presumptuous. ”

"Hmm," Chen Mu nodded, took a sip of wine, and drank a bit like Zhu Yeqing: "The eldest lady you said is Gongsun Ang's wife?"

Cao Sheng waved his hand: "No, Gongsun Ang is not very old, although there are many concubines around him, but there is no lady in the main room." The eldest lady I'm talking about is his mother, and she is also Gongsun Xiong's mother. ”

Chen Mu shrugged his shoulders regretfully.

Cao Sheng felt that it was boring to drink dryly, so he walked to the marching box and rummaged through it, it seemed that there was a lot of food there, but he would not take it casually, but must find something he wanted to eat now.

After tossing for a long time, he pulled out a bag of melon seeds.

It's the kind of melon seeds that have been peeled, and it's lo-mei.

Cao Sheng said a little complacently: "There is an old maidservant girl by my side, she has nothing to offer, but it is more delicious to make these little things." It's a pity that she's too old for me to bring her to the army. ”

Chen Mu ate a few and said it was very delicious: "The eldest lady of the Gongsun family was scolded, what happened later?" ”

Cao Sheng gave Chen Mu half a bag everywhere: "Madame's face was disgraced, and she became more and more depressed after returning home, and a white silk was hanging on the top beam." Fortunately, it was found in time to pick up a life. After Gongsun Xiong knew about this, he rushed to the door of Zhao Ji's house single-handedly and blocked the Zhao family's aunt. As a result, he was really blocked, and he broke out with a roar and stabbed it with a shot. I'm sure he didn't want to kill anyone, but his appearance at that time startled the Zhao family's aunt's horse. ”

Chen Mu: "Aunt Zhao fell to her death?" ”

Cao Sheng: "The horse man stood up, and the aunt of the Zhao family fell to the ground and was trampled by the startled horse. A weak woman's ribs were trampled on several times, do you think it can still be okay? He died within a few days. Although her death was not entirely caused by Gongsun Xiong. However, it is rumored that Gongsun Xiong slaughtered the aunt of the Zhao family. ”

"That's bad luck." Chen Mu thought for a while: "In this way, the contradiction between Gongsun Xiong and Zhao Ji is difficult to reconcile. In that case, I don't think it's a big deal to use Gongsun Xiong. ”

Cao Sheng smiled: "I will explain this to the Queen Mother, if the King Mu thinks that the two of them are really easy to use, then use them first." ”

Chen Mu nodded: "It's really nice to cooperate with Cao Jianjun. ”

"Arando's movements are fast, forcing us to hurry up too." Cao Sheng paused: "So I don't think there's anything wrong with Zhang Youtian's approach." ”

Chen Mu smiled: "You mean to say that the sooner the better?" ”

Cao Sheng had no expression on his face, neither cold nor excited: "The purpose of fighting is different, and the fighting style is different." If your main target isn't Arlando, you'll have other ways to play. You go for it, I don't care. As long as it doesn't affect Zhang Yunlong's establishment of the Anxi Protectorate in Guizi Town. This is the bottom line of the Queen Mother. ”

Chen Mu rubbed his nose: "Why does the Queen Mother think that I will definitely help her?" ”

Cao Sheng smiled bitterly: "Because you have a common enemy. ”

Chen Mu asked rhetorically: "Isn't she worried that after destroying the enemy, I will become her new enemy?" ”

"Anyway, she can't do anything about the Tang Clan's gate valve now." Cao Sheng stood up and shook his shirt: "If you are poor, you will change." ”

——

Send people from the Secret Service to the cities of Aragon and Huoxun to see what the attitude of the locals is towards the Huns.

Chen Mu remembered that at that time, this task was assigned to Feng Feima, but a month had passed, and he had not received any reply.

Called Feng Feima over and asked him how many people he had sent and if anything would happen.

Feng Feima said, there is no guarantee of success for the killer to go out to do things, but I sent out four people and divided them into two groups, even if there is an accident, it shouldn't be left in it.

"Will they not know that we are in Swap City?" Feng Hu asked as if reminded.

Feng Feima shook his head, indicating that it was unlikely.

Chen Mu's face was ugly, he didn't like to fight the battle of "knowing oneself and not knowing the other". If the people of the two countries are very supportive of Arlando, then they can't send troops to attack now. Because his own soldiers are still too few, and there are a large number of prisoners in them. The combat effectiveness of the captives is really weak. And every day there was news that the captives had escaped.

"I want to increase the sense of belonging of these captives and give them a clear avenue to rise. Let them feel that they can be rewarded for their hard work in the army of the Liang army. Zhang Han, gather all those Hu soldiers. I want to speak. ”

The battle for supremacy begins with defending the city /book/90002/
