"It's not that I won't let Tang Xiaomi come back, it's that she insists on not coming back." Walking in the backyard of the Hussar General's Mansion, Ma Chao sadly found that his personal attraction could only last for one night. Facing Diao Chan, who was accustomed to carrying the family beam, he could only carefully recall the details of when he first met Tang Xiaomi.

On that day, Cao Cao had already promised to return Pang De and Tang Mi to Ma Chao. But after Tang Xiaomi hesitated for a moment, he asked Ma Chao: "Cao Thief used me to pass on the wrong information twice?" ”

"No, he used you to deliver a true message twice. It's just that both of those messages came at the wrong time. Ma Chao thought about it and could only answer like this.

Indeed, the first news was that Cao Cao was about to retreat south after running out of food. This news is true, but at that time, all the shadow information in Jizhou had been mastered by Jing'an Cao, and the correct news had already changed its flavor when it came to the various armies and departments of the Ma family.

The second piece of news is Cao Cao's route to retreat south. This piece of news is also true. But Cao Cao added another trick to this news, which made the generals of the Ma family's armies think that Cao Cao's fake news of Qingzhou was just a scam.

Tang Xiaomi thought for a long time after hearing this, and finally said another sentence with an expressionless face when Pang De had already been included in the Ma family's army: "Lord, please forgive Xiaomi for the crime of disobeying military orders, I am determined to stay in Cao Ying!" After saying this, Tang Xiaomi replied and looked at Cao Cao, who had a hint of fun on the corner of his mouth: "I wonder if Lord Sikong has the courage to leave a dark shadow of the Ma family on his side?" ”

"Since Miss Tang is not afraid of being trapped in the tiger's den, how could Cao not even dare to accept such a small provocation?" When Cao Cao answered, he didn't look at Tang Xiaomi at all. On the contrary, on Ma Chao's face, there was a little compensatory pleasure - Ma Chao's guy is really good at blackmailing. That kind of condition is enough to make Cao Cao unable to restrain such a very inconsistent reaction.

And Ma Chao looked at Tang Xiaomi's serious and resolute pride, he knew that Cao Cao's two tricks had deeply stabbed Tang Xiaomi's self-esteem. And once a woman's pride is punctured, what terrible consequences will be brought in by the strong resistance of others. Therefore, he could only bow his head slightly, and without looking back, he took Pang De and the eight thousand Youyan Spirits and rode away.

"You mean, Tang Mi is determined to stay in Cao Ying, and he won't return to the Ma family until he finds out the real information once?" Diao Chan was very surprised to hear this result, the current Shadow has already lost its strength, if Tang Xiaomi insists on going his own way, the road to rebuilding glory will be a little more bumpy.

"Perhaps, but since she has already chosen this, I can only support it. Anyway, it's not all bad for her to stay in Cao Ying, it's a big deal, there will be news from her in the future, and we will just take it as a reference. "Compared with Diao Chan's single-minded attention to the shadows, Ma Chao's shoulders are heavier, whether it is the meritorious deeds of this war, or the deficit deficit of the Ma family, or the next macro strategy of the Ma family, he needs his guidance.

And these three major problems are only the most conspicuous and the most superficial to be solved, and if they continue to deepen, the adjustment of the organizational structure of the Ma family, the transformation of the external outlook, the strategy of rapid economic recovery and spread, and the flexible response to the general trend of the world are all thorny and inexhaustible matters.

Therefore, before he returned to Chang'an, he issued an order to ignore government affairs for three days. In order to avoid the ministers holding a stack of reports in the court, at the same time, he was even more afraid of seeing Meng Da, Li Yan, Han Feng, Zhang Yupan, Guan Shanxue, Li Zihao and others crying and stomping their feet......

However, it turns out that the dream of enjoying a three-day leisure can only be a dream. When he woke up, the person next to him couldn't wait to start interrogating him. What quietly, gently, without saying a word, you can taste the expectation of the tranquility and beauty of life just by your eyes, but you still can't resist the anxiety and tension of falling into firewood, rice, oil and salt.

"How to start the reconstruction and restoration of the shadows of Bingzhou, Jizhou, and Youzhou?" Just when Ma Chao smiled bitterly, Diao Chan's words like a talisman fell into his ears again.

This time, he didn't dare not hear clearly, but the idea in his heart still needed to be decided according to Cao Cao's reaction. He frowned, and after some consideration, he spoke: "Do you think that your son is important, or is Jizhou important?" ”

Diao Chan's face showed a hint of hardship, she felt that she hadn't seen her for half a year, and she couldn't keep up with the logic of Ma Chao's conversation. The sharp and radical young male protagonist in the past has gradually transformed into a strategic but not publicized, and the kind of cautious consideration that completely plans and then acts, makes Diao Chan's intelligence feel a little difficult.

But fortunately, the two have known each other for many years after all, and after just a slight pause, Diao Chan understood what Ma Chao meant: "For Yuan Shao, his son is definitely more important than Jizhou." But for Cao Cao, even if he is a qualified heir, he is not as good as a county in Jizhou. ”

Ma Chao nodded, Diao Chan clearly understood what Ma Chao meant. Using Cao Ang's life in exchange for the restoration of the Jizhou Shadow Intelligence Network, on the surface, it is indeed very difficult. However, things are not absolute, and Ma Chao released some bait: "What if, the heir of the Cao family, is fully recognized and supported by the Ma family?" ”

On the smooth forehead like a willow leaf, the pair of eyebrows cut out like a spring breeze wrinkled deeper, and she vaguely understood what Ma Chao meant. However, he was not very proficient in the subtlety of the diplomatic game between the two countries, so he could only answer vaguely: "In the short term, the Cao family will indeed care about the attitude and trends of the Ma family. But after all, the two families are the country of enmity, even if Cao Ang is the first heir of the Cao family, once he is too stained with the mark of the Ma family, he can't keep Cao Cao will find another way. ”

At this point, Ma Chao has nothing to say, although Diao Chan's answer is just a guess based on feelings alone, but women's feelings are often very accurate. And Ma Chao's idea is only a construction stage, and it has not really been considered on the table. What's more, in the final analysis, Ma Chao will have to wait for Cao Cao to complete his promise to himself before he will shift his focus to details such as shadow reconstruction. So, in his mind, he began to plan to stop this topic.

The next moment, however, the conversation did stop. But it was not the way Ma Chao wanted - Liu Yue and Fu Shou also walked out of the room, and after seeing Ma Chao, the first thing they said was in unison: "Husband, the Ma family's finances have reached the point of imminence!" ”

Ma Chao's heart flashed with a hint of coldness at that time, and he suddenly had a feeling that he was a failure: he trusted women too much, and trusted those who could carry half of it... No, mostly half the female creatures. is also too delegated to these women to show their abilities, which leads to a series of very worry-free but sometimes very heartwarming results.

For example, now, I don't have to focus on the two specific matters of financial constraints and shadow reconstruction, because the person next to me will remind you at any time and may also give you specific suggestions. But as a man who wants to enjoy the harbor comfortably, the daughters-in-law who are smart, capable, and beautiful make them reluctant to leave, it becomes a sweet burden.

Because, when you enjoy them, you must also accept that they are completely considered for you - of course, this is because Ma Chao has not realized at this time that he is different from the one he worked with his daughters-in-law half a year ago. Now, he has devoted himself to it in that half a year, and he has grown more and more profound and broad. I also prefer to stand at the height of the overall situation and solve problems from a high position.

It was at this time, before he could figure out how to answer Liu Yue and Fu Shou's questions, Han Ying and Lu Qiling also went out of the room, even though Lu Qiling was still a little shy on her face, but when she saw the eyes of the three girls surrounding Ma Chaoshi, it seemed that there was a kind of imprint effect, and she also spoke at the same time as Han Ying: "Husband, the female tiger camp urgently needs to replenish the source of troops...... Also, is there a clear edict that this battalion will be included in the regular combat units of the Ma family? ”

"Uh..... dear wives, look at it, is the sun shining today?" Ma Chao's brain ached faintly, and when all the women looked at the sun in the sky without knowing it, he pulled out his legs and slipped away......

Hey, women, sometimes too smart, too capable, and really not so beautiful.
