575 Lie down and go in
Walking to the corner of a deserted alley, Zhuge Liang handed the woman a small packet of frosting, the woman smiled, nodded at the two, turned around and walked neatly.
Zhuge Liang looked back at Xu Mei, thinking that she would be surprised, but she didn't expect that she just looked at herself lightly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Zhuge Liang has always felt that his strategic insight is one of the best in the world.
But as soon as he met Xu Mei's gang, he repeatedly felt frustrated.
"You thought of it earlier?" He asked tentatively.
Xu Mei shook her head, "No." ”
Zhuge Liang was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but heard her add: "I originally wanted to go directly to the Sun Mansion, although we arrived a day earlier than scheduled, but the front-line war can't wait, I must see Sun Quan today." ”
Seeing that she was going to continue, Zhuge Liang raised his hand and bitterly expressed that he didn't want to hear it.
He didn't want to admit that he had disrupted Xu Mei's plan.
But he can remedy it, let Xu Mei see Sun Quan today.
In that case, it is better to let him make mistakes!
Xu Mei smiled lightly and didn't say any more.
"Then you go ahead, I've already told you the purpose anyway."
Zhuge Liang smiled gratefully, immediately looked serious, and led Xu Mei out of the alley, observing the surrounding situation while thinking about a way to enter Sun's Mansion.
The two of them just walked away, and they had no interest in the bustling street market of Wu County.
Xu Mei has already cultivated so much that no matter how her heart shakes, she still has to keep her face calm.
Zhuge Liang didn't have the heart to enjoy it at all, his eyes were full of eyes, how could he see Sun Quan as quickly as possible.
He knew that Xu Mei must have a way, but she didn't say it, she just deliberately tested his intentions.
Zhuge Liang's reserve of knowledge in his mind is as broad as the sea, he treats himself as a machine, and his brain "swoops" to filter out useful information.
Finally, when he finished walking a street, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind: "There you have it!" ”
Xu Mei stopped.
"Sister Xu, can you give me two more packets of frosting?" Zhuge Liang asked tentatively.
Xu Mei generously took out two packets of white sugar wrapped in oiled paper and handed them over, "Here." ”
Seeing that Xu Mei didn't take these rare white sugar seriously at all, Zhuge Liang twitched hard in pain.
He asked Xu Mei to wait at a foot shop on the street, put down the box by himself, and hurried away with two bags of sugar.
Xu Mei simply squatted down in the shade, holding the box with one hand and a fan with the other, scanning everything in front of her with a sharp gaze, and sighed in her heart, worthy of being the granary of Jiangnan, this Wu County is really rich.
Since the Sun family is not short of money, if they want to exchange for profit, I am afraid that Sun Quan's heart will not be moved.
If the money and silk don't move, then she can only come up with a killer weapon!
"I'm back!"
The tall young man ran over with sweat on his head, "I'll get it done, Sister Xu, come with me!" ”
Xu Mei patted her squatting legs, took out the electronic watch from the pocket of her short-sleeved jacket and glanced at it, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhuge Liang had been gone for an hour and a half.
Zhuge Liang watched Xu Mei put the watch away greedily, and made up his mind that this time he must use his credit to exchange for such a divine object!
Xu Mei fanned, Zhuge Liang carried the box, and the two came to a typical three-entry deep courtyard mansion in Jiangnan.
An ox cart covered with straw lay across the open space in front of the gate, on which were placed two mats.
The mat was not used to find a common one, but a rotten straw mat specially designed to wrap the dead.
This kind of performance art has attracted a lot of onlookers, and the ox cart was left unattended, but it was not lost.
Xu Mei had to sigh again that the people of Wu County were living a really good life.
If this is a different place, the same scene, this ownerless ox cart is afraid that there will not be even a root of grass left.
"Sister Xu, you lie down." Zhuge Liang opened the mat and gave Xu Mei a look of belief in me.
Xu Mei didn't talk nonsense, and lay down directly.
Zhuge Liang put the box in Xu Mei's hand, pulled the ox cart, and strode towards the gate of Sun's mansion.
The guards at the gate had long been alarmed by the onlookers, and they recognized Zhuge Liang.
This kid came here before, saying that he was an envoy of the Xu family, and he came to meet their lord and had important matters to discuss.
Who doesn't know that Xu Cao's two sides are fighting in the north at the moment?
This Xu family's military envoy came over, it must be no good thing!
Besides, the envoy of the Cao family just came a few days ago, at this critical juncture, where did they dare to let the envoy of the Xu family in?
If the envoys of the Cao family knew about this, they were afraid that the lord would offend the Cao family fiercely.
Therefore, when Zhuge Liang appeared before, the guards directly blasted him away, afraid that the matter would reach the Cao envoys, and they didn't even dare to tell Sun Quan.
Now that I see Zhuge Liang appearing with great fanfare, the guards in front of the Sun Mansion only feel a headache.
"What should I do?" Several guards looked at each other in a panic.
One of them let the other three guard first, and then ran wildly into the house.
"My lord! Lord! ”
"Oh no, the envoy of the Xu family is here!"
Sun Quan and the others, who were discussing with their staff how to deal with Cao Jun's envoy's request to send troops, stood up with a spirit.
"How can it come so fast!" This is the collective voice of the staff.
Moreover, the most unbelievable thing is that Xu Jiajun is not far away in the Northland?
When they thought of Wu County, they had to cross the Cao clan's territory to arrive, even if there was no Cao clan's intervention and came from a long distance, it shouldn't be so fast!
Sun Quantong and his subordinates looked at each other, and their faces sank together.
The guard said: "My lord, the two envoys of the Xu family army are wrapped in the dead man's seat, lying on the ox cart, they said, knowing that you have your own thoughts in your heart, they don't plan to interfere with you, but they have something to say to you." ”
"I also said that if you are worried that Cao Jun will misunderstand, and you are afraid that the Cao envoys will think that you let the Xu family army into the mansion with two hearts, they are willing to wrap themselves in and stay motionless, if you don't talk about it, you can directly kill them and pull them out, and the Cao envoys will not misunderstand."
After hearing the guard's words, the Sun clan's staff were all taken aback.
That's a wonderful idea!
It seems that the envoys of the Xu family army who went on this mission are not simple people.
Sun Quan's heart was itchy, in fact, these were exactly what he was afraid of, but the other party thought of all his concerns.
"What do you think?" Sun Quan asked the staff behind him.
They were hesitating whether to get involved in the battle between the Xu family army and the Cao family.
On the one hand, their Sun family was still nominally an official of the imperial court, and did not establish himself as a king like Xu Jiajun.
Therefore, Cao envoy came to transfer troops with the emperor's edict, and it stands to reason that they only had a dead end if they did not obey the order.
Of course, if you resist now, you won't die right away.
Sun Quan and the others were only worried about the battle in the north, if the Cao clan won a big victory, they would definitely take advantage of this to send troops to Jiangdong.
But what if the Xu family army wins?
The result doesn't seem to be much better for their Sun family.
The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, and it is impossible for the Xu family army to hammer the Cao family to death with this battle.
Then when the Cao clan recovers, they will still turn their heads against them Jiangdong.
Wait, Sun Quan thought back to the thoughts that had just flashed through him.
He seems, as if, thinks about the consequences of not sending troops!
