"Is there usually so many people?" Shen Miao asked.
After hesitating for a moment, Luo Ling said, "On normal days there would be more people, but today Father and the rest had transferred them away, so there are not many city guards left. However, as long as nothing happened in the city, seventy people would be enough. The weather is not good tonight. Little Brother is right, no one should enter the city. "
The Luo Army only had so many people that it could use. In pursuing the Turks, it was only natural that it take all the useful people with it. The remaining city guards seemed to be stretched thin. Of course the Xiao Chun City had been safe and sound for so many years, the city guards would at most help to capture fugitives or thieves, and there was not much use.
Luo Sa stared at Shen Miao for a while and suddenly said, "You are afraid that the Tu Jue will attack?"
Everyone was taken aback by his words. Luo Tan's jaw dropped. Luo Qian asked, "Second Brother, what are you talking about? Why would the Turks attack?"
Luo Sa sneered and stared at Shen Miao's eyes without blinking, "Didn't Biao Youngest Sister say it on the day you came? The Tu Jue have ambition and strength so why can't they attack. Is this what you're afraid of? "
Luo Sa's character was somewhat aggressive and facing his sharp gaze, Shen Miao nodded her head, "Correct. What I am afraid of is this."
"How is this possible?" Luo Tan said, "Not to say if what you said will happen, today Father and GuFu had gone to the grasslands to pursue the Tu Jue, so how would the Tu Jue be distracted to attack the Xiao Chun City? If he was really ambitious, wouldn't it have been better to find an opportunity before? "
"Luring the tiger away from the mountain. Not only the Ming Qi people would use it." Shen Miao said lightly, "Even though the Tu Jue are nomads, they are not fools. After living with the people of the Xiao Chun City for so many years, do you think that you would not learn something? As long as the Turks aren't fools, they would have learned it long ago. "
Shen Miao's uncharacteristic cold attitude made the few of them somewhat surprised. After a moment of silence, it was Luo Ling who spoke first, "Youngest Biao Sister, is this your own guess or … Where did you hear this news? "
Shen Miao had always been worried that the Turks would attack the city and today she was acting so strangely. Everyone noticed this point and as long as one was not a fool, they would be able to see that something was wrong. Simply being afraid was one thing, but if he got other information from somewhere else, it would be another matter.
"Intuition."
"Intuition?" Luo Sa was not angry but laughed, "Biao Youngest Sister, this is not the time to joke."
"Could it be that both Older Brothers have been in the city's guards for so many years and do not know the logic of taking preventive measures?" Shen Miao's expression was slightly restrained and the meekness in her eyes was restrained and gradually there was determination. She said, "If the Turks really attack, we can prepare in advance and naturally everyone will be happy. If they did not attack, the Xiao Chun City would be spared from the calamity, would it not be a good thing? Could it be that bad things had to happen in order to be prepared? If they don't even understand this, it's no wonder that the Luo Family is on the decline. "
"You!" Luo Sa was furious. Luo Tan's and Luo Qian's faces were also not looking good.
It was Luo Ling who stared at Shen Miao for a while and his expression did not change and was as gentle as before. He cupped his hands towards her and said, "Biao Youngest Sister is right. It is us who are slow-witted but based on the lack of manpower of the city's guards, it is an irrefutable fact. Based on Biao Youngest Sister's opinion, what should be done?"
On the surface it was a question but it was to ask her to solve a thorny problem and to test her ability. Shen Miao's heart was startled. This gentle Biao Older Brother was not as generous as he looked on the surface.
She said, "If it really come to this step, it is not possible for the manpower to increase for no reason. The Turks came prepared and we are naturally not their opponent. I am after all a female and do not know martial arts. Rather than taking risks, it is better to protect myself. Older Brother Ling, why not gather more guards at the Luo residence's doors to protect the Luo residence. If there is a problem, they would be able to resist for a while. "
When her slippery words came out, everyone was stunned. She spoke so vehemently but at this moment, why did she show such a helpless look? For a moment, the younger generation of the Luo family did not understand Shen Miao's meaning.
Luo Sa was the most depressed. He wanted to get angry when he saw Shen Miao but could not find a reason to get angry and could only sit at the side with a face full of anger.
Luo Ling looked at Shen Miao meaningfully and said unexpectedly, "Then do as Biao Youngest Sister says."
Everyone sat down in the hall again. One did not know why but because of Shen Miao's words, the atmosphere became somewhat stiff. Even Luo Qian and Luo Tan seemed to be nervous. Only Madam Ma and Madam Yu did not know anything and were still instructing the chefs in the kitchen.
It was until the sky was completely dark that Luo Ling's guards suddenly requested to see him. Luo Ling let him in and that guard's expression was anxious as he whispered a few words to Luo Ling's ear. Luo Ling's expression changed and suddenly looked towards Shen Miao.
Shen Miao was drinking tea leisurely.
