Chapter 408
Mrs. Cao had just finished eating the yam soup and leaned against the bed to read a book. When she heard that Cao Miao came to see her, she was a little surprised.
Being on the Chang'an ship, eyes were everywhere. Cao Miao should avoid suspicion. What important thing is there? Is there anything that must be said now?
Although she thought so in her heart, she still put on her clothes. Others said that Cao Miao was crazy, but she knew in her heart that it was just an excuse for Cao Miao to cover up her eyes. He knew in her heart. If it were not forbidden, she would never make a mistake for no reason.
After putting on his clothes and simply tied his hair, Mrs. Cao asked his close maid to call Cao Miao in.
After a while, Cao Miao walked in and knelt close to the cabin door. Ah Hu followed him, lowering his head, with tears on his face.
Mrs. Cao's eyes flashed slightly, she waved her hand, and signaled her maid to go out. The maid went out, pulled the cabin door and stood outside the door. Ah Hu hesitated and quietly pulled the corner of Cao Miao's clothes. Cao Miao did not move. Mrs. Cao saw it clearly and said softly: "Ah Hu, you go out too."
Ahu looked at Cao Miao. Cao Miao nodded. Ahu lowered his head and responded, opened the cabin door and went out, then closed the cabin door and stood outside the cabin door. At this time, Mrs. Cao's voice came from the cabin, asking the maid to take Ahu to eat. The maid understood and led Ahu away.
Cao Miao had not moved. From Mrs. Cao's actions, he knew that he had been right.
When he recalled the incident related to Shi Caiying and Ah Hu just now, he suddenly realized a problem, and Mrs. Cao might know some inside story.
The reason is very simple. Mrs. Cao is in a suspicious place and has always been cautious. It is unlikely that she would take a strange Hu Ji as her maid just because of a bowl of yam soup? She also took her to the Chang'an ship.
The Chang'an ship is Sun Quan's ship. Those who can stay on the ship are either rich or noble. What if something happens? Mrs. Cao cannot escape the suspicion. In the case that more things are worse than less? Mrs. Cao will not let anyone with potential risks appear here? Shi Caiying must have some reason to make Mrs. Cao believe her and take her on the Chang'an ship.
This reason is most likely related to Ah Hu.
He took Ah Hu into the cabin just to test it. Mrs. Cao didn't say anything? She asked the maid to take Ah Hu to eat something? Naturally, she received his hint, but she didn't want Ah Hu to know the inside story, so she deliberately sent him away.
"Auntie? Who is Ah Hu?" Cao Miao moved forward two steps? He was only separated from Mrs. Cao.
Mrs. Cao shook her head. "You haven't asked your father? He should know better than me. I'm just a little suspicious? I can't count it."
"Who did my aunt think of?"
Mrs. Cao sighed? She fell into deep thought? It seemed like she was back to the past? A smile of girls appeared on her face. After a while, she withdrew her thoughts and said softly: "Yunliang, what impression do you have of your uncle Wen?"
Cao Miao blinked his eyes and was shocked. Ah Hu was Cao Zhang's seed? So, it can explain his natural divine power. Cao Zhi's generation? The strongest force is Cao Zhang? The most prominent point is that he is strong? He is so big that he is not like a human.
"I don't have a deep impression, I only have a vague impression."
"Your son Uncle Wen has many beards around you, one of them? She is deeply loved by your uncle and has a legendary origin. She was once an assassin and wanted to assassinate your eldest father, Emperor Wu, but was defeated by your son Uncle Wen. She and your son Uncle Wen fought with each other for a long time and finally became your son Uncle Wen's maid."
"What's this person's name? Where is it now?"
"Don't be anxious, listen to me slowly." Mrs. Cao waved her hand and told Cao Miao not to be anxious. "I really don't know what her name is. I vaguely remember that she has a Chinese name, her surname is very rare, and she is a poem about poetry. This person is stubborn and different from other maids. Later, because of one thing, he had a big fuss with your son and uncle Wen, and he never saw her again."
"When, what's the matter?"
"I can't remember the specific time. I didn't experience it myself, I just heard that. At that time, I had already married to Jiangdong, and it should be..." Mrs. Cao thought about it carefully. "Around twenty years of Jian'an."
Cao Miao calculated with his fingers. If Ah Hu's age is true, he should have been born in the 19th year of Jian'an, which is consistent with this time point.
"Your son Uncle Wen is a gentle man, and he is good at martial arts. He loves good horses as well as beauties. Once, he fell in love with a horse, but the other party refused to sell it, so he exchanged it for a beautiful concubine. The other party fell in love with the beauties at a glance. Your son Uncle Wen agreed, and the beauties were furious and had a big fuss with your son Uncle Wen and left."
Mrs. Cao smiled and said, "I was in Jiangdong at that time. The reason why I knew about this was that some people who were flirting with this matter wrote the lyrics and sang it everywhere. The name is "Concubine Changes to Horses", and now there are still people who can sing it."
Cao Miao was speechless. Cao Zhang was really a young man and didn't treat people as human beings. But this was nothing. People in this era were like this. Concubines were items and could be given as gifts at any time.
"Auntie has seen that gangster?"
"I have seen each other. I can't remember anything else, I only remember her eyes. Ahu's eyes were almost exactly the same as hers. The first time I saw Ahu, I felt familiar. Later, a Hu Ji found me and claimed that her surname was Shi, who was the same clan as the Hu Ji who was next to your uncle Wen. I suddenly remembered that Hu Ji, but I thought she was a polite poem at that time, but now I know that she is a poem about poetry."
"Shi Caiying is the sage who made yell soup for you."
"You know?"
"She is my Anchun, also known as Miaoqin, and another one is named Xuanqi. She and Zhishu around me come out of Fuyu Changshengtang like a painting."
Mrs. Cao was stunned for a moment and nodded slowly. "So that's it. It's a good idea to say so."
"She didn't tell you this?"
"No, she just said that Ah Hu was the blood of your uncle Wen. She was ordered to protect him secretly, hoping that I could do it for convenience." Mrs. Cao looked at Cao Miao and whispered: "Is the assassin who entered Wuchang Palace to assassinate the Supreme? Is it her?"
Cao Miao nodded.
"You are so brave." Mrs. Cao sighed. "If I had known this, I wouldn't have let Boping see you."
Cao Miao was silent for a moment, took a step back, and bowed to the ground. "Please rest assured, my aunt. If something happens, I will definitely not implicate my aunt and Boping."
"Can you do it?"
"I tried my best. But..." Cao Miao hesitated for a moment. "I want to ask my aunt a word, is it OK?"
"you say."
"If things are inconsistent and cannot gain a foothold in Jiangdong, will my aunt be willing to go to sea with Boping?"
Mrs. Cao's eyes flashed and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. "Are you really the son of my brother Jian? If he had the courage of you back then, why would he be like this?"
Cao Miao was speechless. If you want to say that this woman’s intuition is really powerful, strictly speaking, he is not that Cao Miao.
"Auntie, you just said, my father should know about this?"
Mrs. Cao laughed silently. "This is true. Ah Hu is really the blood of your son Uncle Wen. Do you think your father would not know?"
