1673 There are only so many promises that can be given

Zhen Mi accompanied Cao Shuo to the back garden.

When she was about to arrive at Sun Shangxiang's residence, she said to Cao Shuo: "Husband, since Mrs. Sun learned that Jiangdong was attacked, she locked herself in the room all day long, and she refused to see even the eldest lady......"

"I see." Cao Shuo said to Zhen Mi: "You go back and rest first, and I'll go to your place tonight to talk to you." ”

"I'm waiting for my husband in the room." Sun Shangxiang responded.

Seeing her leave, Cao Shuo instructed Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao: "You two are waiting outside, I'll go see Mrs. Sun." ”

Pushing open the door, Cao Shuo walked in.

The maid who was waiting for Sun Shangxiang saw him coming, and hurriedly bowed: "The son is here." ”

"Where's your wife?" Cao Shuo asked.

"It's in the middle." The maid bowed her head in response.

Walking into the inner room, Cao Shuo saw Sun Shangxiang lying there.

Hearing the footsteps, Sun Shangxiang didn't sit up.

Coming to her side, Cao Shuo asked, "Why are you still asleep?" ”

Sun Shangxiang didn't say anything.

"Said to wait for me in Shouchun, but now that I'm back, why don't you pay attention to me?" Sitting down next to her, Cao Shuo asked again.

Sun Shangxiang still didn't say anything.

"Are you angry for Koto?" Cao Shuo's hand rested on Sun Shangxiang's arm.

Writhing, Sun Shangxiang still didn't speak.

"I didn't think about fighting Jiangdong, it was Zhou Yu who wanted to harm me, so I had to do it." Cao Shuo said: "If someone wants to kill me, I can't say nothing? ”

"Why did the Governor kill you?" Sun Shangxiang sat up suddenly, glared at Cao Shuo angrily and said, "Jiangdong is my mother's family, but you are ......"

At this point, her eyes turned red, and she couldn't say the rest of the words.

"Because you're afraid of me." Cao Shuo said: "If the Sun family wants to grow, sooner or later they will have to fight in the Central Plains. And the Central Plains is already the territory of our Cao family. If they don't kill me, they don't have any chance at all, and killing me, although it may not be successful, is much better than keeping me alive. ”

"Now Koto is yours." Sun Shangxiang turned his face to the side and said, "How can I believe what you say......"

"It doesn't matter whether you believe or don't believe." "The only thing I know is that I can't die, and once I'm dead, there will always be some people who will follow me, and others who will serve others," Cao said. As for the ladies in the back house, they will be sent as gifts, including you, of course. ”

When Cao Shuo said this, Sun Shangxiang was stunned.

"When you come to Shouchun, you should have seen it too." Cao Shuo said: "What kind of life do the ladies live here? They're not just my vassals, they have their own things to do. Shouchun even has a women's official mansion for the ladies to give full play to their talents, is there such a place anywhere else? ”

"But ......" Sun Shangxiang hesitated and said, "Our Sun family is ...... after all"

"If you marry me, you will no longer be a member of the Sun family." Cao Shuo interrupted her: "You are my wife, a member of our Cao family. If it is not the Sun family but the Cao family who loses this time, your former mother's family will definitely give you to someone else, and even force you to marry Liu Xuande. Are you really willing to do that? ”

Sun Shangxiang didn't speak again.

She knew that Cao Shuo was right.

Since marrying Cao Shuo, she is no longer the young lady of the Sun family, but Cao Shuo's wife.

Even if he dies, the tombstone in the future will be engraved with the words "Cao Sun".

If Cao Shuo was really harmed by Zhou Yu, her life in the Cao family would definitely not be easy.

Even if the Sun family really defeated the Cao family, she was just a vassal who could be given to other men at will.

"Wu Hou is indeed your brother." Cao Shuo said: "But he has never considered it from your standpoint. If he really takes you into account, he will never allow Zhou Gongjin to harm me. You know, I'm dead, and you're going to be in the biggest trouble. ”

Sun Shangxiang's head hung lower, how could he still find words to respond.

Putting his arm around her shoulders, Cao Shuo asked, "Have you talked to the eldest lady about the war between the Cao and Yuan families?" ”

Sun Shangxiang shook his head.

"The eldest lady, like you, is just a victim of the family's interests." Cao Shuo said: "When she married me, it was the Yuan family who wanted to win over the Cao family. Later, when the Cao and Yuan families went to war, many people wanted to send him back to the Yuan family, and some even offered to kill her. If I hadn't stopped me, there wouldn't be the current lady at all. ”

Finally raised his head to look at Cao Shuo, Sun Shangxiang's gaze became very complicated.

"If she hadn't married me, it would have been fine." Cao Shuo said: "But she married me, and she is my wife." How could I possibly allow my wife to be given as a gift and used as a tool for profit? ”

"I'm ......" Sun Shangxiang opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something.

Cao Shuo didn't give her a chance to speak at all, and continued: "From the day you married me, I have to take on the responsibility of protecting you. And the premise of taking on the responsibility is that I have to live. Only when I live can I let you live a stable life, and can others not dare to do anything to you. Zhou Gongjin wants to kill me, of course I can't let him succeed, after all, in this world, I still have many people who need to be protected. ”

Letting go of Sun Shangxiang, who was in his arms, Cao Shuo stood up: "The only thing I can promise you is that if I break through the Sun family in the future, I will treat my mother-in-law well." Whether it's at Sun's house or with me, my mother-in-law will be treated with the same respect. ”

"Husband......" Sun Shangxiang finally called Cao Shuo.

"Rest well tonight, I still have some things to do." Cao Shuo said: "If you want to understand, let the maid go and talk to me." ”

Cao Shuo turned around and left, Sun Shangxiang wanted to stop him, but he didn't know what to say.

The door was closed, Cao Shuo had already left, Sun Shangxiang was silent for a long time, and shouted outside: "Someone is coming." ”

The maid walked in, leaned over and asked, "What do you command, Madame?" ”

"Get some food, I'm a little hungry." Sun Shangxiang commanded.

She hadn't eaten decently in days, and she would have begged the maid for food.

The maid was overjoyed, and hurriedly responded, turned around and exited the room.

Leaving Sun Shangxiang's residence, Cao Shuo instructed Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao: "It's still early, accompany me to meet Guo Fengxiao again." ”

"Childe has been to a lot of places today." Deng Zhan said: "There is no need for Guo Fengxiao to go there in person, it is better for me to call him." ”

"It's fine." Cao Shuo said: "You go and invite Guo Fengxiao, just say that I have something important to discuss with him." ”

After receiving the order, Deng Zhan retreated and left.

Cao Shuo took Zhu Ao to the study.

came to the study, opened a book and read it for a while, Deng Zhan led Guo Jia to the door.

"Childe Qiyu, Guo Gong is here!" Deng Zhan reported to Cao Shuoyu outside the door.
