Jia Xu came suddenly, and Jia Pei hurriedly said to Cao Shuo: "Son, hide quickly!" ”

The furnishings in the room are simple, there is no place to hide people, only a few cages for clothes and miscellaneous items in the corner.

She gestured to the cage: "The middle box is empty." ”

Cao Shuo hurriedly opened the cage and got in.

Jape grabbed some clothes from the cage next to him and threw them on them to block him.

As soon as she closed the cage, Jia Xu entered the room.

"What is Pell doing?" Jia Xu asked.

Jia Pei asked and said, "Back to my father, my daughter has been wearing some clothes recently, and she is planning to clean up and let the maid throw away what she doesn't want." ”

"Let the servant do these things." Jia Xu said: "Why do you still need to do it? ”

"The servant doesn't know what to keep and what to throw away." Jape said: "It's okay for my daughter to be idle, so I'll do it myself." ”

"Recently, my father has been a little upset, so he passed by you and came to see it." Jia Xu said: "Since you have something to do, then I'll go first." ”

"Why is the father annoyed, can you tell your daughter?" "If the daughter knew the reason, she might be able to relieve her father's sorrows," Jape said. ”

"It's nothing." Jia Xu said: "Someone assassinated General Hu last night, and Wancheng is afraid that it won't be long before a large number of troops will overwhelm the border." ”

"Did the Cao family do it?" Thinking of Cao Shuo hiding in the cage, Jia Pei asked.

"Impossible!" Jia Xu said: "If it was the Cao family, why didn't they directly assassinate General Zhang?" Even if it doesn't work, they will choose to assassinate me. General Hu is just a general, and the Cao family is like a cloud, even if he is not killed, it will have no impact on the battle situation. ”

"It's not the Cao family, who could it be?" Jape asked.

"It's likely to be Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou!" Jia Xu said: "Liu Jingsheng has long coveted Wancheng and has the intention to recruit General Zhang, but he has never succeeded. If General Hu is killed, their army will be overwhelmed, and there will be no available generals under General Zhang, and Wancheng will fall into his hands sooner or later. But the Cao family doesn't need to do this! ”

"In this way, isn't Wancheng difficult to ride a tiger?" Jia Pei said: "A few days ago, General Zhang offended Cao Cao. ”

"The sudden attack to repel Cao Jun brought such a big hidden danger." Jia Xu said: "If I had known this, I would not have planned a surprise attack for him!" Zou is just a woman, what if Cao Cao sleeps? ”

"Does my father regret it?" Jape asked.

"That's all the Father has told you, don't tell anyone." Jia Xu said: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, fortunately, General Hu is okay this time, otherwise Wancheng is really in danger." ”

"If Jia Gong regrets it, there is still a chance to redeem it!" Cao Shuo, who was hiding in the cage, heard what Jia Xu said, opened the lid and stood up and said.

Cao Shuo suddenly appeared, Jia Xu was taken aback, and looked at Jia Pei in amazement: "Pei'er, what's going on?" ”

Cao Shuo actually dared to appear in front of Jia Xu, and Jia Pei was surprised.

She didn't think of how to explain, Cao Shuo had already stepped out of the cage, saluted Jia Xu and said, "The second son of the Cao family, Shuo, has seen Jia Gong!" ”

"Zirong Gongzi! You...... You're not ......" Looking at Cao Shuo, Jia Xu said in amazement.

"Thanks to Miss Jia." Cao Shuo said: "I left Wancheng a few days ago, but I'm back! ”

Cao Shuo reported to his home, and Jia Xu hurriedly turned around.

Before he could call the guards, Cao Shuo said: "Before Jia Gong calls someone, it's best to think about whether you should do this or not!" ”

"What do you mean?" Hearing that Cao Shuo had something to say, Jia Xu asked.

"I just said that the last time I escaped from Wancheng, it was because of Miss Jia." Cao Shuo said: "If I am caught, Miss Jia will inevitably be accused of collaborating with the enemy!" Jia Gong is afraid that he can't get out of the relationship! ”

Jia Xu gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, and asked Jia Pei in a cold voice, "What's the matter?" ”

"Gong Jia, don't blame Miss Jia." Cao Shuo said: "What Miss Jia has done is to find a way for Jia Gong to live!" ”

"What do you mean, Childe?" Jia Xu asked coldly.

"It's not interesting." Cao Shuo said: "There are two roads in front of Jia Gong. First, I called the guards and took me away. Miss Jia is accused of collaborating with the enemy, Jia Gong may be able to stay out of the matter, and she can also have the reputation of killing her relatives with righteousness. The second is to sell the Cao family's favor. With my father's temper and Jia Gong's talent, I believe that in the future, Jia Gong will not only not be killed by the Cao family, but also has a very bright future. ”

Jia Xu asked with a cold face, "What exactly do you want to do?" ”

"There are two things I want to do." Cao Shuo said: "The last time I escaped from Wancheng, it was Miss Jia who gave help. I owe a favor, and I Cao Shuo must pay it back. However, I don't have much to do, the only thing I can use to repay Miss Jia's affection is to love her for the rest of my life! ”

Cao Shuo's righteous words made Jia Pei's heart swell with a strange warm current.

He can say these things in front of Jia Xu, which shows that he really returned to Wancheng with sincerity.

A man, for her to risk her life, what else is not worth her trusting for life.

"Can I be a son-in-law proposing?" Jia Xu asked.

Cao Shuo said: "I just made my attitude clear to Jia Gong, as for the proposal, I will implore my father to fulfill it." ”

"Zirong Gongzi only said two things, what is the other one?" Jia Xu asked.

"My brother died on the battlefield, but he was hung by Zhang Xiu on the city to show the public." Cao Shuo said: "My father originally planned to send someone to sneak into Wancheng to steal the body, but in order to see Miss Jia, I specially asked my father for permission to return to Wancheng. The corpse has been transported out of the city by us, and now it is me who is left of Wancheng! ”

"You've stolen the body?" Jia Xu was stunned for a moment and asked.

"If Jia Gong doesn't believe it, you can go and check it out in person."

"Could it be that the assassin of General Hu is also the son of Zirong?" Jia Xu asked.

"Of course not!" Cao Shuo said: "Jia Gong's analysis is right, it couldn't be easier for the Cao family to kill Hu Che'er. We don't have the heart or energy to deal with a reckless man! He doesn't deserve me to do it! ”

"Brother Ling died on the battlefield, and Duke Cao must hate me and General Zhang." Jia Xu said: "I'm afraid that the hatred can't be resolved." ”

"Jia Gong is too worried." Hearing the sound of the strings in Jia Xu's tone, Cao Shuo said: "The eldest brother died on the battlefield, the two armies fought with swords and swords, and my father led the troops to fight all the year round, how could he not know this truth." If Jia Gong helps us leave Wancheng and kill one son and live the other, what reason does my father have to hate Jia Gong? ”

"Why should I trust you?" Jia Xu asked.

Cao Shuo said: "Just because I have a deep love for Miss Jia, I don't hesitate to risk my life for her." Since he wants to be Miss Jia's husband, of course it will not be unfavorable to the future father-in-law! ”
