After dinner, Cao Miao walked out of the yard and prepared to take a walk by the lake outside the camp. When he passed by the official party, Sun Qing walked out of it and stopped him.

"What a coincidence, I'm going to invite Mr. Cao."

Cao Miao was puzzled. "Is there anything wrong?"

"Mrs. I have something to discuss with Mrs. Cao."

Sun Qing led Cao Miao into the door and came to the hall. Mrs. Sun was preparing for dinner. Several commanders, including Sun Luban, were also there, and the military marquis were all fully armed and looked solemn. Seeing Cao Miao come in, Sun Luban blinked but stood still.

Mrs. Sun stood in front of the map, her face shining with oil and fatigue.

Cao Miao looked around blankly. "Is this...are there any action?"

"Be prepared for any trouble." Mrs. Sun waved and called Sun Luban and others to the front. "Tomorrow is Shangsi Festival, and the king will go out with the ladies. The camps will accompany me, and I, the Jiefan camp, are no exception. Especially in Fanshan area, although I defeated the bandits last time, I failed to encircle and annihilate them. I must be on guard. Luban, from now on, you will be on standby until the king returns to the palace."

Mrs. Sun glanced at Cao Miao. "Mr. Cao, I'm sorry, you can help Lu Ban and ensure her safety. Anyone who may threaten her will be killed."

Cao Miao bowed to accept the order.

Mrs. Sun immediately arranged tasks for others. Everyone took the order one by one, orderly. At first glance, it was obvious that she was used to being used to it, and only Sun Luban was a novice.

After the task was arranged, everyone took action separately. Mrs. Sun left Sun Luban to have supper together. When she learned that Cao Miao had finished eating, she smiled and said nothing. While eating, she told Sun Luban to pay attention to things to do, especially to ask Zhu Ying to cooperate well and not make any mistakes.

Cao Miao saw it and turned around and gave Ah Hu a few instructions. Ah Hu turned around and left. It was not long, and Ruhua came back with Liu Chen. Although they did not have a full set of armor, they also put on light armor and brought weapons.

"Liu Chen, from now on, you will follow Team Zhu to lead the team." Cao Miao ordered.

Liu Chen bowed his hand and turned around and stood beside Zhu Ying. Zhu Ying was surprised and happy and thanked Cao Miao. Cao Miao waved his hand. "Although Liu Chen has not been with me for a long time, he is a loyal and righteous man. Leaving his hometown and being favored by the team leader is his blessing. Letting him protect you is also fighting for himself. You don't have to be polite about the team leader."

Zhu Ying was a little embarrassed and thanked Cao Miao again. Seeing this, Mrs. Sun ordered someone to take four pairs of armor and let Ahu and Liu Chen wear them. She originally wanted to prepare a set for Cao Miao, but Cao Miao refused, because he was not used to wearing armor, and the weight of armor would affect his speed.

Mrs. Sun did not insist.

Mrs. Sun ate very quickly and almost swallowed her. After dinner, she ordered someone to serve a few cups of tea. Holding the tea cup and smelling the fragrance of tea, she showed a little bit of relaxation.

"Tomorrow will be very nervous." She said, squinting her eyes, with a little confused look on her eyes, and a bit of indescribable coldness. "The king issued an edict that the plan of the general of the auxiliary country to return to the capital was temporarily suspended, and Shu Han would definitely react. If those bandits were really related to Shu Han, they would never miss this opportunity. Unable to say, there would be a fierce battle."

Cao Miao remained silent. He knew that the reason why Cao Zun had not taken action these days was because he changed his target to Lu Xun, who was in Wuchang in the future. If he knew that Lu Xun would not come, Sun Quan would go on a trip again tomorrow, and the possibility of attack was quite high, but the possibility of success was infinitely close to zero.

Not to mention Cao Zhan, even if he led those two hundred people, he would not be sure to break through the Wu army's warning.

"You'd better wear armor." Mrs. Sun said to Cao Miao: "The situation on the battlefield is complicated, and a stray arrow may kill you. If the other party recognizes you, no matter which force the bandits are, they may attack you."

Cao Miao was puzzled. "I can understand that the Shu Han people may take my life. If it were your Wu family, I would understand that I wanted to kill me. But if I were from the Great Wei people, why would my wife think they would kill me?"

Mrs. Sun took a sip of tea and said, "When the news of Wu Quan spread, can you be sure that Emperor Wei will not kill you? Don't forget, he asked you to go to Jiangdong in the first place. What's the difference between this and killing someone with a knife?"

Cao Miao frowned, and was about to say something else, but Mrs. Sun said again: "It's no harm to be careful."

Cao Miao hesitated for a moment and nodded. "Thank you, madam, I will be careful. I will wear armor when I go out."

——

Cao Miao followed Mrs. Sun out of the camp, boarded her flagship, and drove into the river.

The lights were on the river. All the navy stationed in Wuchang were on alert. On the river surface under the battalions, the warships were on high alert. Meng Chong shuttled back and forth, and inspected all the ships passing by. Even Mrs. Sun's flagship had to pass through the command before passing. The strict guard surprised Cao Miao.

It was the first time he had experienced this state after being in Jiangdong for so long.

Mrs. Sun stood on the Feilu, holding the railing, looking around silently, without saying a word.

Cao Miao stood aside, looked at Mrs. Sun's silhouette, and thought about what Mrs. Sun said not long ago, and felt suspicious.

Mrs. Sun said that Cao Rui might have sent someone to kill him, which was not like a routine, but a judgment with certain basis. What is this basis? He was very curious. It was just an excuse to be related to Wu Quan. This news was not too late to be transmitted back to Luoyang, let alone a round trip. Even if the bandits lurking nearby were from Wei, it would be impossible to assassinate him just because he became the auspiciousness of Wu.

Unless the commander has a high position and has the power to make decisions independently, or Cao Rui has had similar arrangements before. No matter which possibility it is, Mrs. Sun has some evidence and knows that he is likely to be killed, so she specifically reminds him.

Is it related to Yangshu? Calculated by time, if it goes well, Yangshu may have returned to Wuchang. This is also the reason why he asked Liu Chen to follow Zhu Ying.

The possibility of Liu Chen being exposed is getting greater and greater, and this is a good opportunity to quit.

But if Mrs. Sun had prepared for this, would it be a trap? Perhaps it was not Cao Zun, but someone else who was waiting for Liu Chen. He thought Liu Chen could take the opportunity to escape, but in fact he was sending Liu Chen into the tiger's mouth. Once Liu Chen escaped from his sight, he would have no confidence in how many temptations or tortures could withstand severe temptations or tortures.

Not everyone can become a staunch and unyielding warrior.

Thinking about it now, Liu Chen is like a flaw that Cao Rui specially arranged by him.

"Yunliang, you just said, Liu Chen has not been with you for a long time?" Mrs. Sun suddenly turned around, looked at Cao Miao, and said softly: "What did he do before? How did he follow you?"

Cao Miao felt a little shocked, his thoughts changed sharply, and he smiled and said, "Madam has been busy all day, are you tired? Why don't I help you pinch your shoulders and relax?"

Mrs. Sun raised her eyebrows. "Okay, my shoulders are indeed a little sore, so it's good to pinch them."

Cao Miao stood behind Mrs. Sun, put his hand on Mrs. Sun's shoulder, and said while kneading: "Madam, you must have heard of Liu Chen's name."

"Should I have heard his name?" Mrs. Sun smiled.
