Chapter 247 Four beauties (we are AMD fans
Mrs. Sun, who was dining, frowned slightly, and the hardwood chopsticks in her hand broke.
Shi Sha's heart tightened and he instinctively knelt down. Based on her understanding of Mrs. Sun, this is a sign of murderous intention. As for whom she was going to kill, it was not clear whether it was her or Cao Miao.
Mrs. Sun looked at Shisha and said in a deep voice: "Shisha, are you not reporting anything?"
"Madam..." Shi said hoarsely, and sweat beads on his forehead oozing out.
Mrs. Sun waved, took a pair of chopsticks from the maid, and started dining again without looking at Shisha. Shisha knew that this was her last chance. If she didn't tell the truth before Mrs. Sun finished eating, she would needless to say.
"Madam, I... I'm not doing anything well, and something went wrong in the middle."
Mrs. Sun said nothing and continued to eat, but the sound of chewing became louder.
Shi Sha had no choice but to receive the news. He learned that Cao Xiu's son Cao Zun was among the people escorting Cao Miao, so he wanted to capture Cao Zun alive. As a result, he said the mistake of his actions. "I lost most of the money and was unable to control Cao Miao, so I could only send someone to follow him. This made a big mistake. Cao Miao escaped. Please punish her wife."
Mrs. Sun picked up her eyelids slightly, and stopped the chopsticks in her hand. "Son of Cao Xiu?"
"Yes, Cao Xiu's second son Cao Zhan led twenty cavalry to accompany and protect Cao Miao."
"Since Cao Miao is running away, why would Cao Xiu send his son to escort him at any time? This is unreasonable."
"This..." Shi Sha hesitated for a moment, and said again: "I heard Cao Miao occasionally say that his escape did not violate the national law, but offend people. The person who pursued him was not the government of Wei, but the gossip and killer from Luoyang. I fought with them. They were very skilled in martial arts, but had no formation of troops, which was in line with what Cao Miao said."
"Who did he offend?"
"He didn't say specifically, he seemed to be an old minister with a high and powerful position."
"An old minister who is a powerful man?" Mrs. Sun pondered for a long time, nodded slightly, and gestured to Shisha to continue.
Shi Sha didn't dare to hide it anymore, and told her everything in detail. After hearing this, Mrs. Sun was about to speak, Shi Sha said again: "I heard Shi Nuo say that Cao Miao also mentioned something to her, I don't know whether it is true or false."
"What's up?"
"Cao Miao said that when Wei State heard that the king had the intention to proclaim himself emperor, he sent assassins to obstruct him."
Mrs. Sun was slightly stunned, then stood up and asked Shi Sha to explain it carefully. When she learned that this was something Shi Nuo heard Cao Miao talk about. Shi Sha was not present at the time, she ordered someone to spread Shi Nuo. Shi Nuo was waiting outside. Not long after, she came to the hall and saw Shi Sha kneeling on the ground. Knowing that something was wrong, she quickly knelt down and said carefully about the incident.
After thinking about it, Mrs. Sun ordered the convening of subordinates to discuss matters.
The situation has changed. It is no longer a matter of her personal dignity, but it involves the safety of King Sun Quan of Wu, and cannot be taken lightly.
The nature of the problem has changed, and the key is still the same. The most urgent task is to find Cao Miao.
——
Fengyifang and Cao Miao sat in the rooftop cabin, looking at the Wu army soldiers searching for the passing ships in Jinkou in the distance, and laughed silently.
In the shadowy crowd, he saw Shi Sha's figure. From this, it can be seen that Jiefanying - at least the Jiefanying led by Mrs. Sun - has moved all over and wanted to find him out.
As for whether this is because Mrs. Sun felt that dignity was challenged or because of the news he deliberately revealed, he could not determine. However, the reason is not important, the important thing is the result. His purpose of making a mysterious thing is to make Mrs. Sun pay attention to it and not treat him as an ordinary surrender.
He was walking on the upper level route when he came to Jiangdong, so naturally he could not hide in the dark all the time. However, how to play was very particular. He was amazed, and he would have the opportunity to directly contact Sun Wu's power class in the future. He was not amazed when he appeared. He was just an ordinary person. If he wanted to visit others, he might not be willing to see him, and even if he could only meet him, he might not believe him.
Who would listen to the nonsense of an unknown man? What's more, this unknown man was a surrender. If there was no particularly important news, no one would easily pass his news to a more powerful person.
Information has a decreasing effect. Once more transmission, the impact will decrease by one level. After several transmissions, the originally earth-shaking news may not even splash. Fighting in front and tight eating in the back is one of the manifestations of this effect. Some people deliberately downplay it in order to take the opportunity to make a profit, but more people are illusions because they cannot feel the tension ahead and think that the world is peaceful.
For example, when he was in Luoyang, he could not feel the tension in Runan and Yiyang.
Who would have thought that there would be no man’s land between Jianghuai?
In Wuchang, he felt the double joy brought by the Shiting good luck and the New Year not long ago, and the inexplicable pride of Sun Quan's impending emperor. Countless people were thinking of getting a piece of the pie in this feast and sharing at least a little glory, especially for the people of Wuchang.
Few people would think of the war and death that Sun Quan might bring about, and Wuchang could become a battlefield at any time.
"How long will it take to find you here?" Cao Miao withdrew his gaze and took a sip of tea. The tea with ginger tasted really not very good. He frowned and gently put down the cup.
Ren Hongchang, who was sitting opposite, smiled. "Unless the entire Jiefan Camp is dispatched, the township official will not be able to find you even if he lives for a year."
Cao Miao raised his eyebrows and laughed silently. After knowing that he defeated Ren Huangchang and Ren Qingchang's goat sent by Ren Hongchang, Ren Hongchang's attitude was obviously respectful and had some of the attitude that his subordinates should have. Of course, this was related to her granddaughter Yunniang staying in Luoyang.
"In the second year of Huangwu, the King of Wu built a city in Huanghu Mountain (Sheshan Mountain), so I arranged for people to buy houses and buy property and run dance music. After a few years, it was quite famous. This pleasure boat has received countless celebrities. There is no special situation, and no one dares to disturb him easily. Even if I come to check, someone will vent in advance and have enough time for the township to prepare."
"Who is the most honorable guest you have ever received on your pleasure boat?"
Ren Hongchang smiled. "It's far away in the sky and close in front of you. The Xianggong is the eldest son of King Yongqiu, and he should be on par with the son of Prince Sun Deng of the Wu. After crossing the river, the only one with a higher status than the Xianggong is the King of Wu."
Cao Miao couldn't help laughing. "Don't joke at auntie."
Ren Hongchang pondered for a moment. "It's hard to explain it for a while. In the past few years, the strength was limited and he dared not be too arrogant. He was not considered the first-class pleasure boat in Wuchang, so most of the people who received were children of civil and military officials, and occasionally there were important officials with real power."
"Where is the royal family?"
"That's even less. Except for a few unsatisfactory people who will come to visit, most of them will go to Xishifang. Xishifang is an industry of Wujun people, and it is said that the financial owner behind it is General Nei Nan Quan Cong."
Cao Miao smiled and said nothing. Diao Chan and Xi Shi met in this way, which was interesting. "Auntie, you have many Hu girls in your pleasure boat. You should be called Zhaojun Fang to match Xi Shi Fang. If you have the opportunity to build another Yuhuan Fang in the future, the four beauties will be together."
Ren Hongchang was puzzled. "Xi Shi, Zhaojun, and with a jade ring, there are only three people, how can there be four beauties?"
Cao Miao pointed at Ren Hongchang. "It's far away in the sky, and it's near in front of you."
