"Okay, then you can retreat first, and when you finish making a lonely job, it will be the time for my army to go on the march!"

"Yes!"

After waving off the three prime ministers and the six scholars, Cao Cao turned around and walked towards the courtyard belonging to Zhen Mi in the backyard, and this time the money and food fell on those wealthy merchant families in Hebei.

"Madam, the wind is a little strong, Madame should go in."

"Hehe, Xiaohe, why are you so worried about people when you don't know it, don't worry, I'm fine."

Cao Cao, who had just entered the hospital, heard a worried and charming female voice, and at the same time saw the woman wearing a moon-white Han skirt, a white jade hairpin, a green silk hairstyle, and a charming and smiling smile unique to her face when she had just become a woman.

Although this time I came because it was time to ask the wealthy merchant families in the north to contribute, it did not mean that Cao Cao did not have the slightest mood to appreciate this beautiful scenery.

"What Xiaohe said is that winter is coming, you just wear a little bit of it, be careful of contracting the wind and cold, let's go in."

In the courtyard, she was playfully teasing Xiaohe, a little maid who was only eleven or twelve years old, looking at her blushing and anxious face, and Zhen Mi, who felt quite funny, heard Cao Cao's voice, followed the sound and looked over, her eyes flashed, Tingting stepped forward and helped Cao Cao tidy up her clothes, and said softly with a hint of coquettishness: "Your Majesty, the concubine's body is fine, so that she will not be infected with the wind and cold." ”

I have to say that the person who was cold in his impression suddenly became a coquettish person who made some small temperaments, and the contrast between before and after did make Cao Cao feel in a trance for a moment, but Cao Cao, who clearly remembered Zhen Mizheng's character in his heart, came back to his senses after a while, and smiled slightly: "Even so." But if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if. ”

The king's words were right, although at first glance they may sound a little unelegant, but when you think about it. But it has a different meaning. ”

Zhen Mi's sparkling eyes made Cao Cao stunned for a moment, and he immediately understood, and he said something that didn't appear at this time, but it didn't matter. At this position, it is difficult for Cao Cao to gain some pride or joy in this.

coughed, and without giving Zhen Mi time to object, Cao Cao took her whitened little hand and walked into the house, and at the same time let Xiao He, who seemed a little embarrassed and didn't know what to make up in his brain, retreated.

"Your Majesty, it's daylight."

Cao Cao, who closed the door and was about to say something, heard a meaningful voice from behind him, which seemed to be coquettish and embarrassed. trembling all over, after seeing the clothes for some reason, it looked a little messy, the spring light was looming, his face was crimson, his eyes seemed to be watery, and he was half-propped up on the bed looking at his Zhen Mi, Cao Cao's breathing suddenly became heavy.

Can't blame him, after all, he is also a normal man in every aspect, isn't it, he is shy when he sees such a beauty. If there is no reaction on his body, Cao Cao himself will be worried.

Despite his body's reaction, Cao Cao's sanity did not disappear. On the contrary, he was more clear, poured a glass of cold water and drank it directly, it seemed that the heat on his body was also extinguished by this cup of cold water: "Okay, don't pretend, your character has long been known, and you are here today." You should understand. ”

"Your Majesty, why are you like this, the concubine is real, she is not acting, if the concubine is not mistaken, the king is here today to let those rich merchant families in the north contribute, right?"

Zhen Mi, who originally wanted to say more, suddenly changed when she saw Cao Cao's cold gaze, from the charming enchantress just now, to a cold woman like Chang'e in the Moon Palace.

Cao Cao was also accustomed to the rapid changes before and after Zhen Mi, put down the cup in his hand and said: "Yes, you are very smart, Gu is here for this today, Gu has already let the officials in the north open the door of convenience, those people under the rich merchant family have already served as local officials, now it is time to replace them to contribute, Gu needs them to immediately prepare a money and food enough for 200,000 people to go on the expedition for a year!" ”

Cao Cao's words were light and light, and Zhen Mi could be said to have frowned when he heard it, although he knew that Cao Cao came to his side this time for the wealth in the hands of the northern family, but he didn't expect it to be so much.

"The king forgives his sins, but he can't forgive his concubine."

"You, what are you talking about!"

Facing Cao Cao's indifferent eyes, Zhen Mi's face did not have the slightest expression, no sadness and no fear, and said very rationally: "Your Majesty, although the rich merchant family in Hebei is rich, but the 200,000 army has been going out for nearly a year to fight for money and grain, not to mention that Hebei is only half of the world's family, otherwise, it is impossible at all, not to mention, most of the wealth of the Hebei family is in the acres of land in his hands, and there are not many that can really be taken out of the shop, unless the king sends troops to raid the house, Otherwise, it is impossible to accomplish it, and the concubine does not want to do an unfinished task. ”

Looking at Zhen Mi, who did not have the slightest fear on his face, but looked at him coldly, Cao Cao suddenly laughed, and the indifference and killing intent in his eyes dissipated at once: "Very good, then do you think that Lone should want to think about how much they take?" ”

200,000 troops for a year's money and food, Cao Cao himself did not expect the Hebei family to be able to take it out, or fortunately the Hebei family could not take it out, otherwise, Cao Cao would probably have to wave a butcher's knife at them.

Of course, this is also Cao Cao's temptation of Zhen Mi, from Zhen Mi's justified reasons for rejecting himself just now, and at the same time, it is the same as the secret guard's investigation, not some other reasons, Cao Cao initially believes that Zhen Mi is indeed on his side, at least in this matter, it is.

Zhen Mi is not stupid, from the change of Cao Cao's attitude before and after and the meaning revealed in his words, he obviously understands that Cao Cao is testing himself just now, and separating himself from the Hebei family at this time shows that Cao Cao initially believes in himself.

Zhen Mi's heart flashed with a burst of relief and a slight ache for some reason, and her back was originally straight, but she was also a little relaxed: "According to the concubine's understanding of the wealth in the hands of wealthy merchants in Hebei, their bottom line should be to be able to take out 50,000 troops for a year's worth of money and food."
