Cao Miao turned over, his arms flew away, leaving only a wisp of body fragrance lingering at his nose, and his heart felt melancholy.

The dream of spring is short.

He felt a vaguely that this was the first time, or maybe the last time.

He sat up, opened the window, looked at the river in the morning light, and thought about the news that Mrs. Sun revealed.

He knew that Mrs. Sun's trick was due to her fear of Zhuge Liang. Without any confidence, she instinctively wanted to seize his life-saving straw, and took risks for this and made an almost reckless decision.

Despite this, she still calculated carefully and did not leave him many opportunities.

If Cao Rui was really Yuan Rui, what could he do? After thinking about it, staying in Princess Shang of Wu is the only choice, at least for the time being. Go back to Luoyang and expose Cao Rui? Just kidding. Even if Cao Rui gives him the chance to speak, who would believe him? The best result is just like the rumors that Sun Quan is not from the Sun family's bloodline. Perhaps he can cause some trouble for Cao Rui, but he cannot shake his throne.

As their father and son, everything they say is like spreading rumors, and no one believes it.

Besides, Cao Rui may not give him a chance to speak.

Cao Rui forced him to go to Jiangdong during the journey, and perhaps he had plans in this regard. If the situation was wrong, he would kill people to silence him directly. The reasons were ready. You surrendered to Wu. As for the truth, who can understand it?

With his father's broken spine, it would be too ideal to hope that he can straighten his body and support the sky for himself.

I was so angry. After a long time of struggle, Xiao Ruizi still put a move in his hand and couldn't turn over.

No, I have to cause some trouble for him.

Cao Miao thought about it repeatedly, hung lanterns outside the window, and sent a signal to invite Cao Zhan to meet him.

——

After seeing Sun Quan, Mrs. Sun went back to the front line.

She did not return to Xi Shifang, nor did she leave any news to Cao Miao. She didn't know what to say, but just hoped that this was a dream that only existed in her imagination and had never happened.

She was almost running away.

The boats went down the water and moored west at night.

Leaning against the window and looking at the stars in the sky, Mrs. Sun raised her glass to sit alone, remembering the absurdity of last night, and couldn't help but sigh.

She didn't know whether it was a disaster or a blessing, nor did she know how to face Sun Luban tomorrow, but she didn't regret it.

No wonder so many people are addicted to men and women. Even saints say that it is a human desire, so it turns out to be so wonderful.

"What a pity..." Mrs. Sun smacked her lips, but didn't know what to say, so she could only drink all the wine in the glass.

"Tu tuk." Lu Hong knocked on the cabin door, walked in, and knelt in front of Mrs. Sun.

Mrs. Sun did not move, glanced at Lu Hong with a lazy expression and a blurred look.

Lu Hong lowered his head and tried not to look at Mrs. Sun's eyes. As Mrs. Sun's personal maid, she knew everything about last night and knew that Mrs. Sun was very conflicted now and was inappropriate to say anything.

"What's up?"

"I just received the message from Sun Qing that Lu Mao left Wuchang and should have gone to Xiling."

Mrs. Sun's eyes flashed and she returned to her usual sharpness. Needless to say, Lu Mao went to find Lu Xun, Gu Tan was dismissed, and the prince had no representatives of the Wujun family around him, which touched the sensitive nerves of the Wujun family - especially the Gu Lu and the Gu Lu family - and would inevitably cause a big storm.

She had already anticipated this, so she did not show up after hearing that Gu Tan had made a mistake yesterday. After reporting on the business today, she left Wuchang as soon as possible and rushed to the front line.

"Let Sun Qing pay more attention."

"Here." Lu Hong responded, but did not leave.

"What else?"

"Sun Qing asked, if my wife was not in Wuchang, if she encountered trouble, could she ask Duke Caoxiang for help?"

Mrs. Sun's face turned red, the corners of her mouth trembled, and she almost jumped up. She forced herself to calm down and looked at Lu Hong. "What do you think?"

“I think it works.”

"Why?"

"General Lu is meticulous and resourceful, and it is not something that Sun Qing can handle. Cao Xianggong is alert and with his help, Sun Qing will not be in trouble. He will report everything to his wife." Lu Hong paused and said, "As sooner or later, the princess will take over the camp. It is inevitable that Cao Xianggong will intervene in the camp affairs. Letting him try it now is not a bad thing."

Mrs. Sun twisted her fingers and thought for a long time. "Can Sun Qing control him?"

"Sun Qing makes mistakes better than the princess entrusted to him."

Mrs. Sun glanced at Lu Hong and nodded. Lu Hong was worried about not only Sun Luban, but also her. So far, they still could not determine Cao Miao's identity. If he was a spy from Wei, it would be better to reveal his flaws as soon as possible. This responsibility is borne by Sun Qing, which is better than her or Sun Luban.

"Let her be careful and report it in time if there is anything."

"Here." Lu Hong responded and bowed and left.

"The wind and rain are coming." Mrs. Sun sighed faintly and turned to look out the window.

——

Three days later, Cao Zhan arrived in Wuchang and met Cao Miao.

After hearing Cao Miao's words, Cao Zhan's eyes almost fell out, and his mouth was so open that he could stuff his fists.

"No way?"

"I also think it's unreliable. But the Wu people say something with a nose and eyes, so I must be careful." Cao Miao sighed and was worried. "No matter whether it is true or false, if the Wu people have any evidence, His Majesty will definitely be unable to speak at that time. There are strong enemies outside the Great Wei and internal suspicion. What should we do?"

Cao Zhuan didn't say anything. He thought Cao Miao had thought it was simple. This matter was not just as simple as the monarch and ministers suspicion. The emperor had rumors that the bloodline of the Yuan family had been before, but there was no evidence. If the Wu people had any evidence and spread it, it would be light to make the emperor uneasy, and it would be even more terrible to threaten the emperor and seek benefits.

The one who presided over the military and political affairs of Yangzhou was his father Cao Xiu. If the emperor was forced to make a deal with the people of Wu and gave up Yangzhou, Cao Xiu would be the one who took the blame.

The blame was too heavy, and Cao Xiu couldn't carry it.

"What should I do?" Cao Zhan was a little panicked.

"How do I know?" Cao Miao glared. "Or, you can pass the news back and let the Grand Sima decide? For such a big thing, how can we two juniors be qualified to decide, it is better for the elders to make the decision."

Cao Zhan licked his lips. "Yunliang, isn't this a joke? Is the information reliable?"

"I don't know if it's true, but when I saw that Yuan Song, the news was also said by Gu Tan. Gu Tan has been dismissed, and the prince has no representative of the Wujun family, and the noise is very loud. I heard that Lu Xun's younger brother Lu Mao rushed to Xiling."

When Cao Zhuan heard this, he immediately became energetic. "Will Lu Xun return to Wuchang?"

Cao Miao did not answer Cao Zhuan. He was not sure whether Lu Xun would return to Wuchang because of this. Logically speaking, as a general guarding the border, Lu Xun would not return to Wuchang easily without Sun Quan's edict. However, the Wujun family was too powerful, and Gu Lu was the representative of the Wujun family. If Lu Xun took the initiative to request a return to Wuchang, Sun Quan would still agree.

"If you go back to Wuchang, can those bandits still persevere?"

"What can't be persistent? If you can win, fight, run away if you can't win. They are smart."

"Then you go back to Wuchang to see if there is any chance. But Yangxin cannot stop, do something every now and then, so that Sun Lu and Quan Cong should not withdraw so quickly. If you have the chance, kill Sun Lu and blame the Wujun family. Remember, your mission is not to kill many people, but to muddle the water, the better. When you ambush Lu Xun in the future, you must also remember this point. Don't be too angry and just take revenge."

"I understand." Cao Zhan was in a state of great joy.
