Chapter 271
Qin Bo could no longer hide his loss, and sighed, and didn't say a word for a long time.
Cao Miao did not urge him anymore and waited quietly for Qin Bo to speak. No matter what Qin Bo's personality is, he was a person who had read books. There are not many scholars these days, and whenever he knows a few words or a few books, he thinks he is superior. He regards himself as an elite, and is determined to be a general and prime minister, and guides the country. How many people are willing to be a secret spy?
Lu Yi is from Runan, Qin Bo is from Guangling, and Wu State's school affairs are mostly from Huai and Si people, which is a true portrayal of the dilemma of the Huai and Si departments. If it were not forbidden, who would have been willing to do such a job that was pointed at the back and scolded?
Before they fall into hysteria, everyone will involuntarily think of the future and the reputation behind them.
Although many people simply don’t have the chance to leave their names in history.
After a while, Qin Bo raised his head and smiled and said, "It's already like this, and I don't care about that much."
Cao Miao nodded. "Yes, life and death are a big deal. In the face of life and death, good reputation is not that important."
Qin Bo secretly looked at Cao Miao and found that Cao Miao had no intention of making fun of it, and it seemed very sincere. He thought about it again that Cao Miao, as a royal family member of the Wei Kingdom, defected to Wu Kingdom and betrayed Yinfan for his own safety. There was no reputation to be said. It would be normal to have such an idea.
With this in mind, his collapsed waist couldn't help but straighten much.
Although Cao Miao did not look directly at Qin Bo, he used the corner of his eyes to capture Qin Bo's expression and couldn't help but laugh. The premise of lobbying is empathy, so that the lobbyist's object can recognize you and then accept you. If he thinks that you are not the same type of person as him, he will have a strong guardian mentality, and no matter how reasonable you say, he will not accept it.
Qin Bo felt that they were the same type of people, and even compared with him, he had a little sense of moral superiority. He would constantly amplify this illusory sense of superiority, and unknowingly turn into sympathy for the strong and the weak, and his vigilance would be gone without realizing it.
"Does Qin Jun think that King Wu has the chance to enter the Central Plains?"
Qin Bo's eyes flashed and he became alert. "Of course." He said seriously. "The King of Wu is wise and decisive, and is a master of the world. Ling Zu and Uncle Ling fought many times, but they could only sigh at the river, which is a clear proof."
Cao Miao grinned and said nothing, but Qin Bo was ashamed of shame. He didn't believe such a fake one. It was precisely because of this that he felt desperate. If Sun Quan had to rule Jiangdong in the end, they would always be rootless duckweed and could only be suppressed by the Jiangdong family.
"How capable is Cai Duan?"
Qin Bo curled his lips and was a little absent-minded. "Mr. Cai is a moral gentleman, and Qingzhen is famous."
"How old are you?"
“More than sixty.”
Cao Miao nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Who may be the next Zhongshuling?"
Qin Bo kept silent. He felt that he had said too much to Cao Miao, and it would be easy to cause misunderstandings if it was spread. Seeing that Qin Bo did not speak, Cao Miao turned his head and looked at him, and smiled with understanding. He raised his hand and stood up. "I won't say it anymore, I won't say it anymore. It's getting late, I want to go down and have a drink. Is Brother Qin interested?"
Qin Bo smiled and declined. There were other people below, and he didn't need to monitor him personally. He just needed to take care of the top floor. Cao Miao moved out of Xi Shifang. He thought the task was completed, but he didn't expect Cao Miao moved back again, so he had to come back too. It was a bit hasty and just took this opportunity to clean up.
Cao Miao took Ah Hu downstairs and went straight to the second floor. He did not go to Sun Luban's private room, so he chose a table outside, ordered a few dishes, and started drinking by himself.
After a while, Han Long wore a brocade dress and went out swaggeringly. The two did not have any eye contact, but exchanged information through the agreed secret code. Han Long told Cao Miao that everything went well in Shi Caiying, but the possibility of entering Wuchang Palace again in the short term is very small. Cao Miao told Han Long to hold on for the time being and lurk patiently. Especially Shi Caiying, don’t show up for nothing.
Mrs. Sun is likely to arrange for someone to investigate secretly.
After dinner, Cao Miao returned to the top floor and prepared to rest. As soon as the cabin door was closed, the sound of rapid footsteps sounded. Sun Luban, with Sun Xiu and Zhishu, came, Ruhua. She walked very quickly, with fine beads of sweat oozing from her forehead and breathing was also very rapid.
"Are you okay?" She looked at Cao Miao with warm eyes, and she didn't even have time to take her seat.
Cao Miao said lightly: "Thank you for your concern, there is nothing to do for the time being."
Sun Luban came in excitement, and was poured cold water on Cao Miao's indifference, and suddenly became angry. "What's your attitude? As soon as I heard that you were out of danger, I came. What else do you want me?"
"I hope the princess can stay away from me."
"What did you say?" Sun Luban was furious, jumped up, and pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife.
Cao Miao looked at Sun Luban with an expressionless face, his eyes gradually moved to the hilt of her knife, his brows gradually frowned, and his eyes became colder and colder.
Sun Luban was startled by Cao Miao's eyes and his momentum suddenly became weaker. She sat back in awkwardly. "I..."
Cao Miao stood up and opened the window. The bitter northwest wind blew in, and the warmth in the cabin disappeared instantly. Sun Luban couldn't help but chill. Cao Miao waved his hand, and Sun Luban stood up and walked to the window. Cao Miao pointed at the Wu army warship in the distance.
"Which warship can you command so many warships?"
Sun Luban was angry and anxious. "So, do you think you should still rely on my aunt?"
“Do I have another choice?”
Sun Luban was speechless, his face turned red, but he couldn't say a word. She glared at Cao Miao viciously. "Did you arrange the assassin who entered the palace to assassinate in the evening?"
Cao Miao nodded.
"So, you asked Zhishu and Ruhua to follow me to make use of me?"
Sun Luban slowly pulled out the long sword, held the sword in both hands, staring at Cao Miao. Ahu and others saw this, surrounded them from both sides, intending to take off the sword from Sun Luban. Sun Xiu and others also surrounded them and prepared to support Sun Luban.
For a moment, the knife lights in the cabin were shining and murderous intent.
Cao Miao waved his hand and signaled Ah Hu and others to withdraw. The cabin was narrow and if he really wanted to take action, he would not be able to perform. Instead, he might make mistakes in chaos. Letting them withdraw will have a better chance of winning. Although Sun Luban had a knife in his hand, he could not hurt him. Outside, Ah Hu and the other two were also confident enough to repel Sun Xiu and others, and could also call Liu Chen and others to reinforce in time.
Ah Hu understood and slowly withdrew, took the door and then guarded the door.
Cao Miao stared at Sun Luban for a long time, laughed and shook his head. "If the princess was on the continent, she could be so fearless when facing Mrs. Sun, why should I do this bad thing? Princess, the real strong one is to meet stronger and stronger when encountering stronger. Only the weak will swing the sword at the weaker one. Have you ever thought about why Mrs. Sun didn't kill me, but instead asked me to come back here and wait for you to kill?"
Qin Bo's anxious voice rang outside. "Princess, never!"
