After the maid left, Da Qiao grabbed Xiao Qiao, and the two sisters were very excited to meet each other.

"Didn't you go to Chaisang, why did you return to Shouchun?"

Xiao Qiao's face was full of tears, and her lips trembled slightly: "Sister, they, they put father under house arrest, let me tell you, if you want father to live, you must cooperate with them."

"them?"

It turned out that since Xiao Qiao returned to Jiangdong, life has been extremely difficult.When a woman is deeply trapped in the enemy's country, especially if this woman is a world-renowned beauty, any man can guess what she will encounter.Although Zhou Yu is a famous general of his generation, who treats his subordinates with all sincerity and shares honor and disgrace, but emotionally, he has an extremely serious obsession with cleanliness.After Xiao Qiao returned to him, he kept provoking her with cynicism and hot sarcasm.If Xiao Qiao hadn't been supported by the obsession in her heart, she might not have been able to survive long ago.

But this time, Cao Anmin led the army to Xuchang, which gave them hope again.

The dragons in Jiujiang have no leader, and it is the best time to go out.

After discussing with Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, they decided to find a breakthrough from Da Qiao.For this reason, the old man Qiao was under house arrest and threatened the big and small Qiao.

"Sister, you have to save father!" Xiao Qiao grabbed her sister's arm, her eyes full of helplessness.

Da Qiao sat there quietly, frowning slightly, thinking slowly in her heart.One side is his father and sister, and the other side is his husband.To measure the weight of the two sides and how to choose, she couldn't make up her mind for a while.

"elder sister!"

"Okay, didn't you see that I was trying to find a way! Before you left, what did Zhou Yu and Sun Ce say?"

"No later than the fifth day of May, if my sister hasn't made up her mind, they will kill my father."

"Oh, even the time has been set." Da Qiao sneered slightly, and along the way, he finally saw through Sun Ce's nature.He can't win on the battlefield, but he actually came up with a way to threaten hostages under house arrest. How can he compete with his husband with such a mind? Even if Jiujiang makes a sneak attack, he will definitely lose.

"Sister." Xiao Qiao's movements were a bit large, and the teacup on the table hit the ground all at once.

"Clap."

Just as he was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.

Chapter 116

"lady?"

The two maids outside the house heard the movement in the house and hurriedly knocked on the door to inquire.

"Nothing, just knocked over the teacup."

Xiao Qiao let out a sigh of relief, her beautiful eyes were full of expectation, now her only hope is Da Qiao, if Da Qiao refuses, she really can't think of what to do.

The father was captured, the eldest sister got married, and the family was no longer home. Where in the world can I live.

"This matter is not something that can be decided overnight. Besides, I think Sun Ce and Zhou Yu don't have the guts to kill his father." Da Qiao's face was full of confidence, and Xiao Qiao was stunned by such an expression.

According to modern speaking, it is a kind of queen fan that people dare not look directly at.

"But sister, my father is deeply in the enemy's hands. Sun Zhouyi's life and death are at the mercy of Sun Zhou. We sisters have neither power nor prestige. How can we prevent him from acting rashly?"

Da Qiao sneered, straightened her robes, and looked at her silly sister with a faint smile: "Now, I am the concubine of Cao Anmin, the prefect of Jiujiang, and my father is also the father-in-law of the Cao family. Although Sun Ce and Zhou Yu He is vicious, but he is just a villain who is good at making small things. National power is the most important thing in a big battle. If Jiangdong dares to make a mistake, my Jiujiang army can attack Jiangdong again at any time. Don't worry, my sister will handle everything."

Xiao Qiao felt a little envious when she heard this.Da Qiao was able to say such a thing because she was backed by Cao Anmin's favor.In terms of beauty, in terms of talent, I can't lose to my sister in everything, why can't I get a man who really loves me.

Leaving Baoyue Zhai, Da Qiao quickly ordered the maid to invite Xu Guangqi and Bao Zheng.

Before Cao Anmin left, he handed over all the government affairs to the two of them. Now that Jiangdong wants to be unfavorable to Jiujiang, the two must make preparations in advance to prevent accidents.

Although the two were at a loss, they put down their affairs and hurried over.

In the study, Da Qiao changed into a formal attire and sat in Cao Anmin's former position, looking calm and composed.

"I don't know why Mrs. Qiao called me here for something important?"

In the Cao Mansion, there is only one person who can be called Madam, and that is Chen Yan.For other wives and concubines, the subordinates must bring their surnames before addressing them in order to show respect.

"Two gentlemen, Jiang Dong wants to take advantage of my lord's absence to draw pictures of me in Jiujiang."

The two looked at each other, a little strange.

News about the exchanges with Jiangdong would be presented to the two of them every day, but these days Jiangdong was calm, and they didn't see any wrongdoing at all.

"Madam Qiao, where did this news come from?" Bao Zheng stroked his beard and asked.

"My younger sister Xiao Qiao came from Jiangdong. According to her, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu kidnapped my father and threatened me with this, asking me to tell him the specific situation of the beacon towers and ports along the Yangtze River."

Bao Zheng's face seemed to turn darker in an instant, and the hand holding the teacup was trembling slightly.

"What do you want Madam?" Xu Guangqi never took his eyes off Da Qiao.It's about Da Qiao's father. Who can guarantee that this lady will have other ideas.Fortified cities are often breached from the inside. If Cao Anmin's concubine colludes with Jiangdong, then Jiujiang will truly be in a desperate situation.

"I want to announce this matter to the world, so that the world can clearly see Sun Ce's face."

Xu Guangqi and Bao Zheng looked at each other the same way, even they would probably not choose such a risky approach.You know, the other party is his father. If one of them is not handled well, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce may kill the hostages to vent their anger at any time when they get angry.

"Madam, if that's the case, Mr. Qiao's safety is afraid."

Da Qiao smiled slightly and shook his head, saying: "The Jiangdong rats dare to spy on our land of Jiujiang, as long as our army is intimidating at the border, it doesn't matter how brave Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are."

For the first time, Xu Guangqi admired the woman Da Qiao for the first time. It is indeed not uncommon for a woman to have such vision and courage.

"Madam is right, I will make arrangements immediately."

On the other side, outside Wancheng, Cao Ang continued to show weakness to the enemy outside the city.In one day, Wenpin led his troops into battle four times, without any gains.Every time Cao Jun saw Wenpin leaving the city, he fled in a hurry, panicking all day long.

Every time he goes out of the city, although he wins, everyone in the city speaks more and more harshly to Wenpin, especially Cai Mao, who always ignores Wenpin every time he sees him.

The reason is that Wenpin blocked Cai Mao from going out of the city to meet the enemy several times, and he was unavoidably angry because he had not made any achievements in battle.Especially the embellishments of other generals led Cai Mao to believe that Wenpin did this on purpose, the conflict between the generals and the generals became sharper, and Wancheng's situation became more and more difficult.

In the room, Wenpin was drinking alone, his eyes full of resentment.

"General!" Two lieutenants strode in, glanced at the food and wine on the table, sighed and sat on both sides.

"Why did you two come to me? There is a problem with the city defense. You are the one to watch."

The two lieutenants were all dejected when they heard the words, and the bold one sighed and said: "General, the two of us have been replaced by military divisions, and now we are only in charge of the stables and warehouses."

"What!" The unknown fire deep in Wenpin's heart was completely ignited at once.The two in front of him are his confidantes, and they are also extremely outstanding among the many captains.Right now, Cai Mao is transferring these two people away, obviously trying to make sidesteps and let himself see the situation clearly.

"General, according to this situation, Wancheng may be in trouble."

"Yes, General, we don't regret our death, but the key is that the tens of thousands of troops in the city are all elite divisions of our Jingzhou Army. If they are all thrown here, within a few years, it will be impossible to form a large army. Our Jingzhou You must be repeatedly bullied by Cao Cao, Sun Ce and others."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Wenpin's eyes were also full of tears.As a general, you can't die on the battlefield, but die in intrigue. This is a kind of sadness.

"General, the two of us discussed that although Cao's army is arrogant, but the number is not large, we might as well ignore the army division and directly lead the main force to break through and return to Xiangyang."

Wen Pin looked at the two lieutenants in a daze and said, "Breakthrough? You two are thinking too simply. Who is Cai Mao? Before the naval army was defeated and tens of thousands of elites were killed in the Yangtze River, the lord did not blame him. Now , if we abandon him and return to Xiangyang, do you think the lord will let us go? Will the Cai clan let us go?"
