Everyone was speechless and looked at each other.

They all held their breath, hoping that Ding Feng could defeat Cao Miao and win some face back. No one expected that Cao Miao would give in directly.

What kind of tactic is this?

Sun Quan couldn't help but shouted: "Wugong, why did you leave without fighting?"

Everyone heard Sun Quan's joke and burst into laughter, indicating that the king and his subjects were united in their hearts and hatred of the enemy.

Cao Miao's face did not change and said lightly: "I heard that the king is good at shooting tigers. I dare to ask if the king can hit every shot?"

Sun Quan's eyes flashed, and he understood what Cao Miao meant. While he was relieved, he couldn't help but be angry. You compete in martial arts, and why do you think I'm good at shooting a tiger?

Before Sun Quan answered, Cao Miao said to himself: "Although I am arrogant, I am not as arrogant as I must win the challenge of Jiangdong heroes. General Ding is a warrior who has been through the battlefield for a long time. A real tiger minister is not a chatterer who can only show off his lips and tongue. I may be able to defeat him, but it will definitely consume a lot of physical strength. Since that is the case, why don't I admit defeat and leave some physical strength to teach those weak chickens a lesson?"

He smiled and turned to look at Ding Feng. "If General Ding can represent all the warriors of Wu, I am willing to do my best to decide the outcome. Unfortunately, not everyone is willing to give General Ding such honor."

Although Ding Feng didn't say anything, his eyes were gloomy. Cao Miao's words came to his heart. No matter how good his martial arts were, the people who looked down on him were still very limited. After more than ten years of fighting on the battlefield, he could only sit at the farthest place and watch the young children of aristocratic families chatting.

If Cao Miao hadn't appeared, he wouldn't even have a chance to speak today.

Everyone looked different, but they did not stand up and talk.

Cao Miao laughed loudly. "The warriors who resisted aggression for the country did not receive the respect they deserved, so they could only live in a corner and watch a group of Confucian scholars talk loudly. The Wu Kingdom wanted to unify the world, which was a whim. I advise you to think about whether you have such strength if you want to get respect from others. Otherwise, you should just shut up and talk less, so as not to insult yourself."

"You..." Gu Tan sneered, just as he was about to speak, he found that Cao Miao looked at him and was immediately stunned.

Cao Miao sneered, pointed at Gu Tan, and hooked his fingers. "If you have something to say under your feet, you might as well get closer. Standing so far, are you afraid that I will be blown away by your tone? Don't worry, I'm not that weak yet."

Gu Tan gritted his teeth and returned to his seat angrily. "What's the point of being a man? I'm too lazy to argue with you."

"Okay, I am the brave man of every man, you are a great wise man, okay?" Cao Miao laughed loudly, his voice was like a bell, his mind was arrogant, with disdain for Gu Tan, and even more contempt for the king and minister of the Wu Kingdom.

Just when someone was angry and wanted to get up to argue, he smiled and turned to Gu Yong, shouting sternly: "Dare to ask Prime Minister Gu, if you speak hierarchy and keep your etiquette, can you tell where this etiquette and etiquette come from? You studied under Cai Boyi of Chenliu, and can you tell that Cai Boyi's daughter was left in the Huns for twelve years. When it comes to being a concubine of the barbarians, what is the etiquette and etiquette?"

He turned around and looked around. "You are all heroes who know honor and disgrace, and are honest. Unfortunately, when the King of Wu was granted the title, your honor and disgrace were not worth a penny. I blushed when I saw you being complacent and planning to add to He Jue. As a minister, I don't want to serve the country and the people, but only think about the ten thousand acres of fertile land in my family. Don't you feel embarrassed?"

He turned to Gu Yong again. "Why do you have to say about my Cao family? There are better examples before my Cao family. Where is the Yuan family of Runan, the fourth generation and the three dukes? Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang brothers were fighting each other. Who is behind the scenes? Are you not sure? Where is the Shen family of Wei County, and where is the Guo family of Yingchuan? How can you get over the eggs when you collapse the nest? Seeing small profits, forget the righteousness, cover up your ears and steal the bell, and deceive yourself, and you are talking about people like you..."

"Rare!" A stern shout came from outside the cabin door, and Mrs. Sun, with a frosty face, appeared at the cabin door. "Get out! On the Shangsi Festival, my king and ministers gathered together. When is it your turn to speak loudly?"

Cao Miao was afraid and left the cabin in shame.

Mrs. Sun didn't look at the ministers in the cabin and bowed to Sun Quan. "I don't take strict care of you, please ask the king to sue you."

Sun Quan looked at Gu Yong, who looked as usual but had a little flustered look and waved his hand. "It's okay, what's the matter with a patient? The governor is worried and keep a close watch. Don't let him come out and cause trouble."

Mrs. Sun bowed and took the order and retreated.

Sun Quan looked at everyone and sighed again. "It's a pity that Yu Zhongxiang is not here, otherwise how could he be willing to be arrogant?" When he mentioned Yu Fan, he felt a little depressed and turned around and asked Sun Deng. "Zi Gao, remind me tomorrow to summon Yu Zhongxiang to return to the court."

Sun Deng was overjoyed and bowed to accept the order.

Gu Yong did not say a word and returned to his seat silently.

——

"What are you talking nonsense?" Mrs. Sun glared at Cao Miao fiercely, raised her hand, and acted to fight.

Cao Miao begged for mercy quickly. "I don't want to do it either. Isn't this a rush to speak, can't stop it?"

"You..." Mrs. Sun was so sorry that she was not good at making a big deal. "It's not enough to succeed, but it's more than enough to fail."

"You can't say that." Cao Miao smiled. "If I make every word right, it won't work. Think about it, it's not appropriate for King Wu to surrender to the people of Wei State as his confidant? I'm a patient anyway, and I'll say whatever I want. You all know what you want. Those who are interested will naturally understand that those who pretend to be deaf and dumb will continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb. As for myself, there is no way out and I can't explain it in the future."

"You still want to go back?"

"Of course I want to go back. I was framed and excluded by the aristocratic family, not treason."

Mrs. Sun smacked her lips and her eyes flashed. "You mentioned the Yuan brothers just now, and I suddenly remembered a rumor that you may have heard of."

Cao Miao looked at Mrs. Sun and looked at her disdain.

"Have you ever met the Emperor of Wei?"

“See.”

"Are you like your Cao family?" Mrs. Sun stretched out her hand to signal Cao Miao to be calm. "I have seen the Yuan family's children. Whether it is appearance or height, they are very different from your Cao family."

Cao Miao had a gloomy face and said nothing. He had met Cao Rui. Strictly speaking, Cao Rui's height is not abrupt among the Cao family's children. As for appearance, his biological mother, Mrs. Zhen, has a strong gene enough, and Cao Rui looks more like the Zhen family.

Mrs. Sun lowered her voice. "If, I mean, if that rumor is true, can you go back?"

Cao Miao blinked his eyes and said hatefully: "If the rumors are true, I will go back even more. We can't let outsiders usurp my Cao family's territory."

"What can you do in the situation of your father and son?" Mrs. Sun was very tempted. "In my opinion, you might as well stay in our Dawu, Princess Shang, and help Dahu take charge of the camp. In the future, Dawu will unify the world. You will be the chief sect of the Cao family, and you will be the marquis or even the king. Wouldn't it be even better?"

Cao Miao was silent for a long time, and with a little struggle, he said, "Let's talk about it when the King of Wu suppresses Gu Yong."

Mrs. Sun raised her hand and patted Cao Miao on the shoulder. "You are right. Whether it is Wu or Wei, there is a common enemy. Whether it can control them, not be controlled by them, is the key to life and death. Therefore, you and I should work together to help each other with the difficulties."
