Chapter 996 Meet the Madam
At the same time, in the Marquis's Mansion.
Cao Jie was reading the novel in his hand, but his face was not good.
Cai Yan and Diao Chan sat quietly by the side, helping Cao Jie pick fruits to eat.
"Why haven't you come back yet, sir?"
"Is Nanzhong really that difficult to fight?"
Cao Jie said with some displeasure.
Cao Jie originally thought that Bai Feng would be back in a month or two at most.
After all, Nanzhong should not be as difficult to fight as Shanyue, right?
Moreover, she had just got married, and it had only been such a short time, and she couldn't see her husband again.
Therefore, Cao Jie was still a little dissatisfied.
But she also knew that Bai Feng was busy with official business.
She should be a good wife and should not complain.
Think about your mother, didn't she also raise all the children by herself?
Moreover, the time your father spent on the war was much longer than this time.
At this time, Diao Chan sighed helplessly:
"Madam, don't think about these things for now."
"I heard that Meng Huo, the powerful man in Nanzhong, is no ordinary person."
"When Liu Yan occupied Bashu, he always wanted to conquer Nanzhong, but he never found any opportunity."
"Based on this, Meng Huo is really not easy to mess with."
"Although the Marquis is brave and fearless, his soldiers are also the elite of the entire Wei Dynasty."
"But it will take some time to conquer Nanzhong."
Hearing this, Cai Yan also hurriedly echoed:
" Yes, Madam, the Marquis has worked hard this time. If Madam doesn't understand the Marquis, then the Marquis will definitely feel uncomfortable knowing it. "
"Besides, I heard that Nanzhong is extremely difficult to attack."
"Didn't His Majesty send people to attack it back then, but they couldn't get in at all."
"Nanzhong has a dangerous terrain. Even if the grenades developed by the Marquis are used, it is difficult to get in."
"But please rest assured, Madam, the Marquis is victorious in every battle and will definitely return victorious this time."
Cao Jie felt a little more comfortable after hearing the words of comfort from the two people.
However, Cao Jie was not unable to understand, but he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Forget it, forget it, tell the chefs to make more duck necks."
"Now, we can only relieve our worries with delicious food."
Cao Jie pouted and said dissatisfiedly.
The two girls smiled at each other and hurried to give orders.
At this moment, a maid hurried over:
"Madam! Madam!"
"Guess who's here?!"
Cao Jie said listlessly:
"Why are you so flustered?"
"Could it be Bo Yue again?"
"Or Shi Zai?"
Thinking of these two people, Cao Jie had a headache.
Since Bai Feng went to war, these two had nothing to do. Basically, they would come by themselves or send someone to come every month.
Send some food or red makeup to Cao Jie.
In addition, they also sent a lot of guards.
After all, they knew that Cao Jie was alone at home, and they were very worried.
The two's official positions now have reached the level where they can make important decisions in the court.
No matter what, Cao Jie is their master's wife.
So the two took great care of her.
At first, Cao Jie just politely refused.
Later, after so many times, Cao Jie was too lazy to pay attention.
To say that Deng Ai and Jiang Wei are simply straight men.
The gifts were all the same and repetitive.
And, most importantly, she still had all these things, all sent by the master.
It would be fine if they were sent once or twice.
After so many times, Cao Jie finally stopped accepting them.
What to accept?
The room was almost full!
The maid shook her head and said happily:
"Madam, no!"
"It's the Marquis, the Marquis is back!"
"The Marquis is back..."
Cao Jie didn't react for a while and murmured.
Immediately, her eyes widened:
"The master is back?!"
The maid nodded hurriedly.
However, before she could continue speaking, a hearty laugh came from not far away:
"I am very sad."
"This time, I specially took time off from the battle in the south to come and visit Madam."
"But Madam is so calm."
"I thought Madam would miss me, but unfortunately, I was overthinking."
This voice...
Cao Jie didn't even need to look at it, she knew who it was!
It was Bai Feng!
Bai Feng smiled indifferently, told the maid to go down, and then said:
"Madam, is it true or not?"
Cao Jie's little face flushed red, and she was so excited that she couldn't say a word.
In the end, whether it was because of holding back or excitement, Cao Jie's eyes were full of tears.
"Okay, okay, I'm back now, right?"
Bai Feng rubbed Cao Jie's little head with some heartache and smiled.
Cao Jie curled his lips:
"Sir, are we returning victorious from Nanzhong?"
"After conquering Nanzhong, do we no longer need to go on expeditions?"
Bai Feng smiled calmly:
"I also want to finish it as soon as possible, but it's a pity that Nanzhong is really hard to conquer now."
"But it should be soon."
"After conquering Nanzhong, there may be no more expeditions, or there may be."
"Now, the Sun-Liu coalition has not been eradicated, and the Wei still needs to expand and develop. However, I will try my best to take time to accompany you."
Bai Feng did not want to use lies to exchange Cao Jie's temporary happiness.
Cao Jie is a smart man, how could he not know the current situation?
The Wei has just been established, and there are still many things to deal with.
Even if Bai Feng does not need to watch over everything and do it personally.
But there are still many things that cannot be done without Bai Feng.
Therefore, Bai Feng will definitely not be idle in a short time.
However, Cao Jie sighed:
"It's good to come back, so when will you leave?"
Bai Feng smiled slightly:
"About a month later."
"Now Nanzhong is full of grain."
"It will take at least a month to harvest the grain."
"After the grain is harvested, it will be relatively easier to attack Nanzhong."
"So, this month we can only station troops and wait for battle and wait and see."
A month?
Cao Jie was stunned at first, and then he felt a little relieved.
At first, Cao Jie thought that Bai Feng would only stay for a few days.
A month is really a long time.
At this moment, Diao Chan smiled and said:
"Sir, you don't know that my wife is almost sick with lovesickness."
"Zhao Ji and I are almost getting calluses in our ears."
"Fortunately, sir is back, otherwise, we two really can't stand it."
Cao Jie immediately scolded:
"Diao Chan!"
"When have I ever been like this?"
"Sir is fighting outside, I should be at peace at home, how can I cause trouble for him?"
Bai Feng immediately said with a smile:
"Okay, Jie'er, don't you and I understand each other?"
"Otherwise, why would I come back?"
