LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 52
After being scolded by Cao Jian, Mi Zhu and his brother finally understood:
Why did their little sister who was always submissive and listened to them the most suddenly have such courage? With a strong background, a domineering and protective guy backing them up, how could they not be brave?!
At this moment, they were already scared: their persuasion of their little sister Mi Zhen ended in failure!
Fortunately, the two brothers of the Mi family were in their prime at this time and their hearts could bear it.
Otherwise, it was hard to say whether they would be killed on the spot by the scolding just now...
Even so, the two brothers took a lot of effort to barely calm down their complicated mood.
After being beaten by Cao Jian, the future second uncle Mi Fang has decided to completely give up: this kind of unclear peachy mess, with his ability, he can't handle it at all!
As for how to explain to the lord Liu Bei later?
This kind of headache, just push it all to his family's eldest brother Mi...
Mi Zhu was quite speechless about this!
Being the eldest brother was really tiring: the younger sister wanted to rebel and remarry; the second brother was useless in both civil and military affairs, and was a hopeless case!
What should he do in this situation of fighting alone?
After a brief moment of melancholy,
Mi Zhu still did not forget his mission, and could not help but cheer up and say to himself:
"Looking at my little sister, she is determined to follow the second young master. Even eight horses can't pull her back!
I just don't know how determined Madam Gan is.
In any case, it's good to at least persuade one lady for the lord.……"
Thinking of this, Mi Zhu couldn't help but pause, then turned to Madam Gan and asked tentatively:
"Madam... my little sister is young and willful, which is actually our fault for not disciplining her strictly.
Now it's too late, even we, as her brothers, are powerless and can't control her...
In comparison, Madam is older and more mature.
In the past, when helping the lord with household affairs, Madam has always been the most stable!
Now that things have come to this, I won't say anything extra! I just dare to ask:
I wonder what Madam's plan is in your heart?"
As soon as the voice fell, Madam Gan's face flushed instantly, and her skin, as white as jade, also became white and rosy, more intoxicating than usual...
Facing Mi Zhu's straightforward question?
Madam Gan hesitated slightly, and secretly glanced at Cao Jian beside her!
After receiving an affirmative and encouraging look, she solemnly replied:
"This matter should not be mentioned now. Everything should be discussed after the matter in Xuzhou is resolved!
However, Mr. Zi Zhong, as an envoy of Lord Xuande, has come here to ask questions? Now that things have come to this, since we have to make it clear sooner or later, I have no choice but to tell you the truth!
At that time, I will have to trouble you to go back and tell Lord Xuande:
I was born in poverty and have never had any great ambitions.
I have only hoped to find someone who can protect me and spend my life in peace! Thank you Lord Xuande for not abandoning me and taking me as a concubine.
To be honest, I was very happy at that time...
However, thinking back to the time when Xuzhou and Xiaopei were lost by Lord Xuande twice! Each time, he abandoned me and his concubines and only cared about his own escape. Such a cruel act really makes people feel a little chilled! I have had enough of the days of fear and fear before, and I may be abandoned again at any time!
Although I met Lord Xuande, how lucky I am?
At the critical moment, I was fortunate to be rescued by the second young master, so I was able to survive until now!
I think that I may never be able to repay such a life-saving grace in this life! Fortunately, the second young master is kind and does not despise my body as a woman!
In this way, I can only promise myself to him to fulfill my wish.……"
These words were so sincere and heartfelt that no one could refute them!
Mi Fang, the fool, couldn't help but nod his head in agreement. He looked so convinced that he had forgotten his position as Liu Bei's envoy!
Mi Zhu looked solemn and thought for a long time before he spoke with difficulty:
"Madam Gan... Zhu was also present when the city was lost twice!
If you really want to blame someone, you should blame me for not protecting you well, which caused Madam to be frightened repeatedly! If you really want to care about it, the lord... he actually has his own difficulties!
The situation was extremely dangerous at the time, and everything was done out of necessity!
If possible, wouldn't the lord want to protect Madam well?"
After hearing this, Madam Gan smiled indifferently and did not comment on it.
Seeing this, Mi Zhu thought she had softened and was about to continue to persuade her!
But Cao Jian couldn't help but chuckle and said meaningfully:
"Hardships...is that so?"
"I heard that when Lord Xuande led his brothers to flee, he once said something shocking!
What did he say, 'Brothers are like limbs, women are like clothes'?
He couldn't bear to disregard the lives of his brothers for clothes...
May I ask the two gentlemen, is this true?"
Mi Fang was stunned when he heard it:???
Mi Zhu was immediately frowning, thinking:
"This second young master... could it be that he really has all-powerful means?
Why did he know so much about such a secret matter?"
Seeing that the two of them remained silent, the two ladies, Gan and Mi, could not help but change their expressions slightly: they had obviously understood the meaning of acquiescence from the reactions of the two Mi brothers!
As women who had been cruelly abandoned before, they were already disappointed with Liu Bei; hearing such secret words that showed no respect for women, their positions were naturally more firm! What's more terrible is that after Cao Jian pointed out this matter, it was not over yet!
Taking advantage of the acquiescence of the Mi brothers, he continued to add a knife:
"Everyone says that Lord Xuande is benevolent... In my opinion, leaving aside other things, at least when it comes to the way he treats his own family, both his concepts and actions are worthy of discussion!"
"Even if it is true as he said, 'Brothers are like limbs, women are like clothes'?
However, in this chaotic world, it is common to see people with missing limbs and arms and legs on the streets!
But people who are naked without clothes? In comparison, there are still fewer people.……"
As soon as these words came out!
Madam Gan couldn't help but smile.
Mi Zhen tried hard to hold back her smile and almost burst out laughing.
Mi Zhu and Mi Fang were speechless again...
Seeing that things had come to this point, it was obvious that Madam Gan couldn't persuade them back!
Mi Zhu suddenly felt overwhelmed!
"Oh! What happened? How did it become like this?……"
Mi Zhu was almost going to collapse on the spot when he was going crazy!
After a lot of beatings and stamping, he finally mustered up his courage again!
Then, Mi Zhu left Gan and Mi alone!
With the last glimmer of hope, he went straight to Cao Jian and said:
"Second Young Master! Although I don’t know what magic you used, the two ladies are now completely devoted to you. They are willing to risk breaking up with Lord Xuande and endure rumors just to be with you!"
"But I dare to ask you, have you ever thought about this:
Under the premise that Cao and Liu are now allied to deal with Lu Bu together!
If you really want to ignore everything and insist on marrying two wives?
How do you plan to explain to Duke Xuande afterwards?
What if this incident leads to the collapse of the alliance between Cao and Liu?
How will you explain to Duke Cao?!"
