Chapter 638
Jing Ran asked, "What about the things you bought?"

Cao Feng said: "I lost the money bag, so I didn't buy it."

Tao Yao glanced at Cao Feng, silently took off the cloth bundle on the saddle and handed it to Jing Ran, saying, "Auntie, this is a gift he bought for you."

Cao Feng turned his head to look at Taoyao in doubt, not understanding why she passed on the gift he gave her to his mother.

Jing Ran felt burdened and said, "Taoyao, why did you suddenly call me aunt? Didn't you always call me by my name? I don't mind that."

Tao Yao said: "Cao Feng told me to change my words, saying that I should learn to respect my elders. I think it's quite easy to call me aunt. You can open it and see if you like it."

Jing Ran said: "Let's go back to the tent first, and then open it to see, what can this brat give me? It's probably a small dagger, a silver needle or something like that."

Back in the tent, when Jing Ran opened it, there were all kinds of jewelry, which shocked Jing Ran.

Jing Ran looked at Cao Feng and said, "Feng'er, are you going to ask Wei Niang to set up a stall and sell jewelry? How did you get so much back? Did you wear it?"

Cao Feng said embarrassingly: "Wear it slowly, and change it every day."

Jing Ran said meaningfully: "How could my son suddenly buy jewelry for me? It must not be your idea. Either Tao Yao bought it for me or you bought it for Tao Yao."

Cao Feng said embarrassingly: "My son really wanted to give you some good things, but I couldn't find them in this city, and then I lost the money bag again. Don't be disgusted with it, just take it quickly."

The three of them were chatting happily in the tent, when Cao Rui walked in and said, "An important person is coming tomorrow."

Cao Feng and Jing Ran asked at the same time, "Who?"

Cao Rui said, "Zhu Xu."

Cao Feng said: "Zhu Xu? Is that the Xiangyang general? Didn't he go to Qin to become a high official? What is he doing in the camp of the Jin army?"

Cao Rui said, "The king of Qin sent him to persuade him to surrender."

Cao Feng sneered and said, "Persuading to surrender?! King Qin is too confident. It is not certain who will win, so he sent someone to persuade him to surrender?"

Cao Rui said: "Let's have a look tomorrow. From my point of view, Zhu Xu must have pretended to surrender. I have heard about his behavior. Tomorrow he may not really come to persuade him to surrender."

The next day, Xie Shi (Xie An's younger brother), Xie Xuan, Cao Rui, Cao Feng and other generals went out to meet Qin's envoy Zhu Xu.

The state of Qin sent an elite army to protect Zhu Xu's safety. Zhu Xu sat in the carriage and walked slowly to the camp of the Jin army.

The two sides did not seem to be familiar with each other. Although they seemed to respect each other, they were full of alienation. The soldiers of the Qin army followed Zhu Xu closely, fearing that Zhu Xu would be in danger.

Xie Shi asked Zhu Xu to go back to the camp together, and the people on the left and right stared at Zhu Xu closely. At this time, it seemed that a horse in the Qin army was frightened and galloped in front of the camp.

It was this horse that attracted everyone's attention, and Zhu Xu hurriedly stuffed the Qin army's strategic layout map and a letter into Xie Shi's hands.

Xie Shi was startled, and hurriedly stuffed the things in his hand into the bag. It took only a moment, and when everyone came back to their senses, Zhu Xu and Xie Shi's expressions were already normal.

Zhu Xu followed Qin King Fu Jian's instructions, and the entire Jin army surrendered voluntarily, with less fighting and less killing. Xie Shi also immediately expressed his refusal, vowing to fight to the end and never surrender.

Seeing that the persuasion to surrender was unsuccessful, Zhu Xu led all the soldiers of the Qin army and left without haste.
