Asura Fields Everywhere in Soochow

In the 13th year of Jian'an, in Xuchang, there were two rows of domestic slaves kneeling in the courtyard of Prime Minister Cao, waiting for someone from above to assign them a place.

Sun Wu knelt and sat on the far right in the second row, listening to the female slave Aqiu on the left whispering her experience.

"My ancestors were originally officials in Chang'an. Before the war, they were separated. There were only my mother, me, and three younger siblings left in the family. My mother used to be pampered and pampered, but later she could only make a living for others. I was married before, but unexpectedly my husband died My husband’s family disliked me, so I had no choice but to leave home to find my own way out. Fortunately, I was favored by the prime minister’s mansion this time, and with the monthly payment, I might be able to help my natal mother’s younger siblings.”

People at the bottom are very miserable. When Ah Qiu talked about such a miserable experience, it was as usual.

"What about you?" she asked.

Sun Wu wanted to make up a more miserable life experience to comfort her, "I am from Lujiang, and my family was originally considered rich, but in the past few years, there were constant bandits, and all the money in the family was looted. Later, my parents couldn't survive, so they had to sell me. .”

After finishing speaking, she looked up at Aqiu with a flat expression, and she made it up even more cruelly, "Later, I escaped from my master's house and returned to Lujiang, only to find that due to the war, my parents and brothers were all dead, and there were no graves. From then on, I was the only one left in the whole family.”

Ah Qiu felt sympathetic to her this time, "It's inevitable... I heard that Jiangdong Sun Ce was fierce and brutal. When he captured Lujiang, many people would be ruined. Killed other people's brothers and sisters. After doing so many evil things, sooner or later they will be punished."

The information was distorted, and Sun Ce's reputation in the north was ridiculously bad. Sun Wu nodded awkwardly, "...Indeed."

"Then your ancestral home is Lujiang, why did you come to Xuchang all the way?" Aqiu asked again.

It has been four years since Sun Wu left Jiangxia to visit Zuo Ci.In the past few years, she has been searching all over the famous mountains and rivers. It was not until the beginning of the year that an idea came to her mind - since there is an allusion about Zuo Ci playing Cao Cao, she lurks in Cao Cao's mansion, maybe she can really see the allusion reenacted.There is hope when seeing Zuo Ci.

"There is no freedom in troubled times. If you ask me why I was sold to Xuchang, it may be because Xuchang is prosperous." She said.

The two poor people cherished each other, and Aqiu said to her: "Since you are lonely and helpless, you might as well treat me as your sister. I am older than you and have more experience. Maybe I can give you some advice."

Sun Wu: "...Thank you sister Aqiu."

For Sun Wu, the first choice to sneak into the prime minister's mansion is to be recommended as a counselor, but her identity as a woman carries a great risk.Although pretending to be a female slave is a bit harder on weekdays, the advantage is that you can keep a low profile and observe secretly.

Now she has an extra sister to take care of each other, which is also a windfall.

After the two chatted for a while, someone came from the courtyard.One is the steward of the prime minister's mansion who bought them, and the other has a pretty face, plain but exquisitely dressed, and looks like a favored maid in the mansion.

The maidservant glanced across the faces of the two rows of servants, and finally walked up to Sun Wu and stood still, and said to the steward, "Let's go with her."

The steward was taken aback, looked at Sun Wu, a little embarrassed, "Miss Meng He, you didn't say you wanted to choose a girl, and the zoo is not a place where girls should go..."

Meng He squinted at him, "It's all approved by the ladies, do you want to talk too much?"

At any rate, she used to be a "wife" in the prime minister's mansion, and Sun Wu was quite familiar with the animal garden. It was a zoo built by Cao Zhang privately, and collected some wolves, tigers, and leopards, and there were a few human-animal battles from time to time.It sounds like a few people have to die every time, but because Cao Zhang always goes to battle in person, there is no chance for others to sacrifice.

The job is not dangerous, but the zoo is in the suburbs, which is not conducive to her getting first-hand information about the Prime Minister's Mansion.

So she discussed it with Meng He in a good voice, "Miss Meng He, the slaves are timid since they were young, and I'm afraid they can't take care of them..."

"Isn't it a good time to practice your courage?" Meng He walked back to Sun Wu, stepping on her skirt with one foot, "Besides, you think you have something to say here?"

The clothes were trampled on, and Sun Wu's body was brought forward, almost kneeling for her.

Because he hadn't suffered such humiliation for a long time, Sun Wu didn't react for a while.

And when she reacted, her anger was already full.There are ways to turn everything around, but this kind of grievance must not be tolerated, she straightened up and wanted to do it.

At this moment, her hand was held down, and Aqiu volunteered anxiously, "Girl, or I will replace my sister..."

Meng He didn't even look at her, he just sneered and said, "There are people rushing to die now. All right, you can go with her."

After speaking, she left the yard.

Although deeply insulted, the menagerie is actually a wonderful place to go.

On the first day the animal garden manager smiled and told Sun Wu and Aqiu, "Awu, you take care of the tiger cage, and Aqiu takes care of the leopard cage. Feed twice a day, one early and one late, and rest for the rest of the time. But if the master wants to come, you must remember to feed them more in advance, and make sure to fill their stomachs with food. First, if you feed too much, they will look round and mighty, and second, these animals will fall asleep when they are full, and the master will fight with them You can also retreat completely, after all, the prime minister is also precious, so you can't be negligent."

At first, the two thought it was comforting words, but after a few days, they realized deeply—except for Cao Zhang, all other employees in Cao Zhang's zoo were doing badly.

Gradually, due to too much free time, Ah Qiu also collected a lot of gossip from other colleagues to share with Sun Wu.

"I said that Miss Meng He is also a slave, how can she behave like that. It turns out that she is the servant girl of the second son of the Cao family, and also the minion of several wives in the mansion—where is the prime minister's mansion, and how many women are there?" If you want to squeeze in, the wives will naturally have to be vigilant. You, it is because you are good-looking that you can get a blessing in disguise like this."

Sun Wu didn't want such a blessing.Zuo Ci's drama Cao Cao didn't know if it would happen or when it would happen. She had to stay with Cao Cao as much as possible so that she could watch the scene of Cao Cao's death in the first place and catch Zuo Ci.

"Aqiu, did you find out how to be transferred to the prime minister's residence?" she asked.

"What are you going to do in the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Ah Qiu frowned, then held her hand again, and said earnestly, "I know you have suffered a lot, and you don't want to be homeless anymore. It's just what kind of place is the Prime Minister's Mansion?" , What are the identities of the young masters? Although you are beautiful, don't think about it."

"I'm not……"

"The prime minister can't even think about it..."

"..."

Sun Wu was speechless by her education.At this time, the steward of the zoo hurried over, "Why are you still standing there, the master is here!"

Sun Wu was taken aback, "I haven't fed the tiger yet!"

Ah Qiu also panicked, "I didn't even feed the leopard!"

The steward ignored them, and hurried to the other people who were chatting.

"What should I do if the third son Cao is eaten by a leopard?" When he didn't get an answer, Aqiu stomped his feet anxiously.

Sun Wu was determined to fight to the end, "He insisted on fighting the beast, and he deserved to be eaten."

Not long after, the brothers Cao Pi and Cao Zhang entered the zoo.Cao Pi is tall and straight, Cao Zhang is even more burly, and both of them are handsome.

The steward went up to meet him, "Why did you come here suddenly? If you give me a letter in advance, I will be able to make some preparations later."

"It's okay, I'm passing by with my second brother, so I'll bring him to have a look." Cao Zhang didn't greet the steward much, and picked up a vegetable leaf outside the tiger's cage.

Sun Wu's heart skipped a beat—the vegetable leaves were fed to the rabbits in her free time, and she would also feed them to the tigers when she was bored, and properly abused the tigers.

Cao Zhang threw the vegetable leaves into the tiger cage.

After not eating for a long time, the tiger was so hungry that he swallowed the vegetable leaves in one gulp.

Cao Zhang laughed and said, "Hey, this tiger is really a vegetarian."

Cao Pi saw it right away, "I'm afraid that the corpses of his subordinates were not fed properly."

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Sun Wu who was standing beside the cage with his hands down.After seeing her face clearly, she couldn't help but look a little surprised, "It turns out that your zoo not only raises ferocious animals, but also raises beauties."

"What beauty?" Cao Zhang turned his head, his gaze met Sun Wu inadvertently, and he couldn't help being stunned.

"Ah..." He was about to blurt out, but quickly held back.His eyes turned from Sun Wu to the tiger, and finally back to Sun Wu, and he began to hold back a smile.

"I didn't expect you to raise this tiger very well with a body like yours. Remember to keep working hard in the future." He patted Sun Wu on the shoulder, his face couldn't hold back, and he grinned to the ears, "I'm happy today, I want to order someone to be a tiger. Deputy Tiger Saddle, I'll give you a small tiger-leading official."

Cao Xian obviously has some past life memories.His gesture slowly opened up Sun Wu's dusty memory——Cao Zhang is indeed different.

"After you tame this tiger to be as docile and resolute as a god horse, I will ride the tiger south and head straight to Jiangdong. At that time, I will hold the head of Sun Ce in my left hand and the head of Zhou Yu in my right hand, and I will ride the tiger around Jiangxia Chai Sang for a while. Circle, I don't know how majestic it is hahahaha."

Cao Zhang was laughing all by himself, while the others were puzzled.

Sun Wu's heart was full of galloping horses.

... Cao Ziwen, you are sick!
