Cao Song's words made Cao Cao and Cao Ang stunned, and they looked at Cao Song at the same time.

Seeing the puzzled and suspicious eyes in the eyes of the children and grandchildren, Cao Song's self-esteem was quite blown and he said angrily: "Do you think I can't be the Grand Marshal?"

Cao Cao hurriedly asked, "How did my father have this idea?"

It is not for Cao Cao and Cao Ang to be surprised. Both of them have never considered the possibility of Cao Song as the Grand Marshal.

Although Cao Song had been in charge of two thousand stones for many years, he had a poor background and had no reputation, and had no confidence to be a three-month duke. Moreover, the Grand Marshal whom he served as was a affairs officer. As usual since Emperor Huan, it was difficult to directly be promoted to the third duke. Although there were one or two exceptions, there were also reasons for each.

Although the nine ministers and nine positions belong to the same rank, their status is still different. Taichang has the highest status, while Zongzheng is the most special, Tingwei, Shaofu, and Grand Secretary are the most powerful. Among them, Shaofu, Guangluxun, was the most likely to be promoted to the Three Duke because of the most contact with the emperor.

Cao Song had to be born without a background, had fame without a reputation, and had the ability to be like that, and was just as close to the emperor. No matter how he looked at it, he was far away from the third duke.

That's why Cao Cao and Cao Ang were surprised.

When Cao Song heard Cao Cao's inquiry, he said, "I have been a nine minister for more than ten years. Others can be the third minister, why can't I? Besides, did not Tang Zhen also be a Sikong?"

Cao Song was not confident enough, so he tried his best to speak righteously.

Seeing that Cao Cao and Cao Ang and both did not speak, Cao Song immediately became soft and said to Cao Cao and his son: "Ameng, Ang'er, you also know that our family has a bad roots. No matter what, compared with the aristocratic families, they are always worse in their roots. But if I become the third family, Ang'er will definitely become the third family in the future. No matter how hard Ameng works, he will become the third family, and our family will also gain the reputation of the third generation.

Now there is no one in the court, and it is a good time. If I work hard, maybe I can succeed?"

Seeing Cao Song being so thoughtful, both Cao Cao and Cao Ang were a little silent.

At this time, Cao Ang asked, "If you are the Grand Marshal, what will the eldest father do?"

The identity of the three ministers is indeed an important way to enhance the family's reputation, so many people think like Cao Song. Therefore, every time the three ministers are missing, they are all the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers.

Since Cao Song had this idea, there must be some solutions.

When Cao Song heard Cao Ang's inquiry, he immediately said, "I have no credit and the emperor, I have worked hard and some favors."

When Cao Ang heard this, he immediately understood that Cao Song wanted to follow Zhao Zhong's path.

"The Emperor is not a nostalgic person."

Cao Song was speechless immediately after hearing this. Cao Ang's words were very clear. Cao Song's favor was not very useful to the emperor. Emperor Ling was not a person who could care about favors.

Cao Song saw Cao Ang silent again, and then said, "Of course not only that, do you know how Cui Lie became the superior?"

Cao Cao and Cao Ang immediately understood Cao Song's thoughts.

Cao Cao immediately said: "In the past, Cui Lie bought an official and was well-known. His reputation immediately declined, and his father must not follow in the footsteps."

Before Cao Song could speak, Cao Ang asked again: "In the past, Cui Lie used five million yuan to buy Situ, but how much did the eldest father use to buy the position of Taiwei?"

"How about 100 million yuan?"

Cao Cao and Cao Ang were both speechless.

The annual fiscal revenue of the Han Dynasty was about 6 billion to 9 billion yuan, but now it is estimated that there will be even less due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The old man took out 100 million yuan to buy an official position in one go. How can it be said that the word "女" is rich?

Cao Ang always thought that his marriage betrothal gift would soon emptie the Cao family?

At this time, Cao Cao hurriedly said, "Father, don't you use money to buy an official position, will there be endless troubles?"

"How to suffer!"

"In the past, Cui Lie bought an official position and asked his son Cui Jun, "How others evaluated it." Cui Lie was also a famous scholar in Jizhou, but Cui Jun said, "There are few great masters and officials who have always been the masters. Those who have been to the position do not say that they should be the Three Dukes; but now they have ascended the throne, the world is disappointed." Cui Lie was puzzled, so Cui Jun said, "Those who talk about their bad reputation."

My family has a lack of fame. If the news of my father buying an official has been reported, I am afraid that the fame will not increase but decrease, and it will be a waste of time."

Cao Song was silent for a moment.

Cao Ang said, "One hundred million is a bit too much."

Cao Song and Cao Cao were both stunned when they heard this. Cao Song was a little happy, while Cao Cao said, "What do you mean by An'er? You also support your grandfather to buy an official?"

Cao Ang immediately said, "It is absolutely impossible to buy an official. Our family's current identity cannot afford to lose this person. And whose grand lieutenant can be worth 100 million yuan. With so much money, what's wrong with doing?"

"What does that Aner mean?"

Cao Ang said, "Of course I hope my grandfather will continue to be a senior farmer and take care of my business. Of course, being a Grand Marshal is also good. As my grandfather said, it can strengthen my Cao family's lintel, but it cannot be bought with money."

Cao Ang said this the same thing as not saying it.

Cao Song immediately asked, "What does Ang'er think about it? You must make a decision."

"I'm worried that the tree will attract wind."

Looking at the father and grandfather, Cao Ang couldn't help but sigh: "There are three marquises in the Cao family, and the father and son are two thousand stones. It is very annoying. Moreover, the foundation of the Cao family is unstable and people cannot afford to look for. If the grandfather becomes the Grand Marshal again, he will be like flowers and brocade cooking oil in a raging fire. It is unlikely that it will not arouse people's jealousy and will decline when it is overwhelmed."

Cao Cao heard this and whispered: "It is not an exaggeration to what Aner said!"

Cao Song saw that his son and grandson did not support him and did not speak for a long time.

After a while, Cao Song sighed: "You are right. Being a Taiwei is just the icing on the cake, and you have to do this!

I was also envious of others before, thinking that I was old and I was about to become a Grand Marshal, and then I resigned and returned to my hometown to make room for you, father and son. Since I was so worried, I would not fight.

I have been rich all my life, but do I still want him to be a Taiwei?

I will stay in Luoyang for another two years, and when you father and son fully gain a foothold, you will return to Qiao County."

After Cao Song finished speaking, his whole body was a little depressed.

He held the table, then stood up and walked out of the room, leaving only Cao Cao, Cao Ang and his son looking at each other.

Cao Ang sighed lightly, and then said, "Father, my grandfather really wants to be this Grand Marshal. Since that's the case, let my grandfather do it, and there is no need to go against his wishes."

Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang and said after a long time, "You have thought about it. This is not a simple matter? The harm outweighs the benefits!"

"Whether it is a disadvantage or a advantage, it is all calculated by our father and son, who promises that it will be right!"

"This is difficult to do!"

Cao Cao was still not optimistic. If he didn't need money to open up the road, Cao Song would not have much qualifications to be the Grand Marshal. At least Cao Cao had no good idea.

Cao Ang smiled and said, "This Taiwei is not the throne of the emperor. My grandfather can do it, so can his son."
