Mu\Can\Wenxue: For three days, Cao Tai's heart has been hanging on his chest, and he can't get it to fall into his stomach.
Because the Ma family's reaction was beyond his expectation, there was only one Qin Yu who shuttled back and forth between the post house where he was staying and Chang'an Shangshutai, constantly passing on messages.
It seemed that both parties were testing each other's bottom lines and striving for the maximum for themselves. interests.
But Cao Tai knew in his heart that this situation was very abnormal.
On the surface, this negotiation seems to be another peace negotiation between the two families, but it is obvious that the Ma family is the stronger party in this negotiation.
According to the prediction, Ma Chao should summon him immediately.
Whether it is a verbal war, strong bullying, or even speaking with his fists without making any sense, Ma Chao should also squeeze out all the oil and water he can squeeze out of Cao as quickly as possible.
It's clean, but now, only an official from the Ministry of Etiquette is allowed to send messages back and forth.
This unhurried attitude is really abnormal.
Cao Tai was very irritable at the moment, but in a blink of an eye he saw his anxious and defeated face in the mirror.
He suddenly felt an unspeakable anger.
He waved his hand and smashed the dressing glass to the ground.
A man Putting such a huge vanity glass in his house is not an insinuation that he is too feminine.
The crackling sound of Qingyue not only did not relieve Cao Tai's anger, but made him even more irritated.
He wanted to go out for a walk, but when he saw the two guards guarding the door, he became even more angry.
No, this situation is absolutely abnormal.
I must find a way to spread the news to Xuchang.
Cao Tai said to himself in his heart, but when he thought of Chang'an, which was like an iron wall, Cao Tai sacrificed seven elite soldiers in Jing'an and couldn't get in.
Cao Tai felt like a rat in a bellows.
"When will Master Qin Yu come?"
For the first time, Cao Tai took the initiative to give up his reserve and asked the guard outside the door.
Although the original purpose of coming to Chang'an was to delay the Ma family's attention, the Ma family's initiative to let him achieve his goal made him unable to control it anymore.
Before the guard could speak, Han Feng's figure came slowly from a distance.
Looking at Qin Yu's steady steps, Cao Tai frowned tightly like a woman.
Moreover, contrary to usual, this time he had not stretched his eyebrows back to their usual warmth before Qin Yu noticed.
This time, Qin Yu was followed by a person, Cao Ang.
"Master Qin, what is this?"
When Qin Yu walked up to him, Cao Tai pointed at Cao Ang and asked.
"Oh, my lord knows that Master Cao is bored here alone, so he arranged for Master Zixiu to live with you."
Qin Yu replied calmly.
"Then yesterday we talked about using ransom to redeem the two generals Le Jin and Li Dian, the hussar generals."
Cao Tai saw the hidden worry on Cao Ang's face and deliberately shifted the conversation to this sensitive topic.
"Hey, your lord also knows that the lord has great admiration for famous generals and good men.
I'm afraid that the redemption will happen this time.
Since Lord Cao raised this matter again today, I will go back and report the matter to the lord in detail.
So that the peace negotiation between the two families can enter the substantive stage as soon as possible."
After saying this, Qin Yu turned around and left.
Cao Tai's intuition was that something was wrong, but just as he was about to speak, he saw Cao Ang winking at him, and he couldn't help but swallow the words that came to his mouth.
"Zixiu, we got inside information about the Ma family."
He quickly invited Cao Ang into the house.
Cao Tai turned around and asked after closing the door.
The abnormality in the past three days has already made Cao Tai impatient.
"The Ma family has already formed troops on the front lines of Zhongmou, Changshe, and Yangzhai, and the Ma family troops at Hulao and Sishui passes are also ready to move.
Depending on the situation, the Ma family wants to force us to compromise as soon as possible this time."
Cao Ang frowned, this news was not overheard by him after all the hard work.

It was revealed by Ma Chao when he was chatting with Le Jin, Li Dian and himself.
Although he knew in his heart that Ma Chao deliberately let him reveal the news to Cao Tai today, the host was strong and the guest was weak.
Ma Chao's hand was He played the game openly and openly, so Cao Ang couldn't help but reveal it himself.
When Cao Tai heard this, his expression was slightly startled.
In the entire Ma family, if there is still a fighting force, the only one is the Ma family army who is tightly guarding the southern pass of the Ma family.
As for the 10,000 troops in Hulao and Sishui, Ma Chao has always used them as the last retreat to the north and has never been mobilized.
Unexpectedly, today, the last breath of the Ma family's fighting power suddenly showed off, but it became an important weight in the peace negotiations in the Chang'e Yang Palace.
In this situation, since the Ma family is ready to take action, the Cao family will definitely send troops to confront them at the cost of overdrafting military supplies.
Although there is no possibility of any fierce fighting, the pressure constantly exerted by the Ma family is something that the Cao family is unwilling to bear.
Even Cao Ang and Cao Tai both believed that if necessary, the Ma Jiajun would deliberately engage in several small-scale fierce battles, and then let some officials within the Cao family take the initiative to persuade Cao Cao to negotiate peace as soon as possible.
On the one hand, he warmly entertained guests and kept himself in the post house; on the other hand, he behaved domineeringly at the border, causing Cao to lose his position.
It has to be said that Ma Chao's current tricks have completely left the category of conspiracy and have entered the realm of conspiracy that is easy to detect but cannot be prevented.
However, if this is really the case, then it is good news for Cao Tai.
Therefore, he was just stunned for a moment, and after thinking about everything, he showed a smile that could almost confuse all living beings: "Zixiu, since one leaf of the Ma family is blind, then we can use the trick."
At that moment, Cao Tai quietly informed Yuan Shu of Huainan Got Cao Ang.
Cao Ang was also a man with seven exquisite apertures, and he understood the key points without Cao Tai explaining them one by one.
With the trump card in hand, he felt confident, so he discussed with Cao Tai how to continue to delay the Ma family without leaving any trace.
After this day, Qin Yu still played the role of peace messenger, traveling back and forth between the two places.
After constant bargaining, the two sides only went back and forth on the core issue of Jizhou.
Although at this time, Ma Chao had privately stated that he could not let go of the four counties of Wei, Yangping, Pingyuan, and Laoling that were actually controlled by the Cao family.
After all, the Ma family's current steps were too big to swallow this.
The cost of the four counties is currently far greater than the future benefits.
Even if Cao Cao offers it, he will shake his head and refuse.
But now, the Ma family just insists that Jizhou is theirs.
It is clearly written in the covenant between the two families that the Cao family Must be returned.
Cao Ang and Cao Tai naturally refused to let up on this issue.
Even when they were ridiculed by Qin Yu as if they were grandsons, they gritted their teeth and played a shameless game: the four counties that the Ma family disdained, for As far as the Cao family is concerned, they spent a hundred thousand soldiers and horses to get the sweet cake.
Even if Cao Ang and Cao Tai lost their lives in Chang'an, they would not dare to lose these four counties in the peace negotiations.
The two families regarded these four counties as an insurmountable hurdle.
However, when Qin Yu reported to Ma Chao on the seventh day, Ma Chao held his chin and sneered: "These two guys, what are you doing?"
It's really a good idea.
However, it has been seven days, and the battle in Runan must have started."
The person who answered Ma Chao was not Qin Yu, but Xun You, who was in charge of military affairs: "Back to my lord, if everything goes well, there will be information coming tomorrow."
"Very good, let's not hide it anymore."
Ma Chao raised his head and focused his gaze on Qin Yu, and said with a smile: "Tell those two young people that I will hold a banquet in the Taiping Hall tomorrow. , bringing the peace negotiation to its final conclusion."
"But" Qin Yu was shocked when he heard this, and stepped forward to dissuade him: "These two people have only said a few words about Cao Cao's promise.
If there is news of defeat at the banquet tomorrow, then we will all be at a disadvantage."
But Ma Chao seemed to have great confidence in Liu Bei, and waved his hand and said: "If Liu Bei can't even resist Cao's army, which is restrained by the Ma family's army, and he can't even defeat Sun Ce, who has been on an expedition for half a year and has gone deep alone, then he will be useless to the Ma family.
It’s of little value.”
Everyone in the world underestimates the man who weaves mats and sells shoes.
Ma Chao only said this to himself leisurely in his heart. rd can collect this book Recommended reading:,,,,,,,, ,,,,,:
