Chapter 2782 Xiahou has friends all over the world, and parents are not as close as friends
When Xiahou Zizang first arrived in Xiangyang, Cao Ren had no doubts.
As a descendant of the Xiahou family of the Cao family, is it a big deal to travel in your own territory?
Although Cao Ren had also heard about some of Xiahou Zizang's affairs, that was also an issue that Xiahou Dun had to consider. At most, he could just express in a vague way not to cause trouble on my territory. It was like a cousin from the next village coming to his house.
If you come to visit, as long as there is no cause for trouble, you will still be entertained to some extent.
But soon, Cao Ren received the information that Xiahou Zizang had "escaped".
At this time, Cao Cao was busy dealing with the Xinji robbery case and had no time to take care of Xiahou Zang.
However, after receiving the general news, Cao Ren immediately restricted Xiahou Zizang's movements. Of course, he was only under house arrest, and then prepared to send him to Xu County.
"General, I think...it's best to send someone to deliver a message first..." Cao Zhen said with some hesitation, "Don't rush to send the person back..."
Cao Ren was stunned for a moment, then frowned, "You mean there...is there some other meaning in this?"
Cao Zhen was silent for a while, "Uncle... I am a junior and cannot comment on this matter..."
Cao Ren nodded, then waved his hand gently.
Cao Zhen bowed and retreated.
Cao Zhen reminded Cao Ren that the matter could not be solved simply.
It is true that the Cao family and the Xiahou family are as close as brothers, but after all, they are not the same person.
Cao Ren and Cao Zhen were in Jingzhou. In the Han Dynasty without instant messaging, it was impossible to call Cao Cao every day to inquire about the specific situation. Therefore, it is normal to be suspicious of Xiahou Zizang's inexplicable escape.
Cao Chun endured the wind, frost, rain and snow in Youbei, and then Xiahou Shang did nothing, which was almost like getting his meritorious service in vain.
For the sake of Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun, the Cao family did not say anything, but this time Xiahou Zizang suddenly escaped, which made people wonder if there were some problems in some aspects?
Can you escape from a military camp? Are all the people in the military camp fools? This is either because Xiahou Zizang himself is very powerful, or someone deliberately releases the water. If someone really releases the water, what is their purpose? Therefore, in this situation
Under the circumstances, Cao Zhen suggested that Cao Ren should not rush to send Xiahou Zizang back, but first inquire with fellow student Lao Cao before making a decision.
This is undoubtedly a very sound decision.
But how to write such a letter is a bit difficult.
Cao Ren thought for a while and then wrote a letter to Cao Cao.
But Cao Ren forgot one thing, that is, Xiahou Zizang was not a peaceful person, and at the same time, not everyone in Jingzhou was peaceful either.
People are born with a class, at least this class will exist for a long time in a certain period of time.
This is the instinct of human nature. Human nature is selfish. Just like a tree, there are also high branches and roots in the soil. The high branches think that they represent the height of the entire tree, and they often forget that they are the height of the tree.
Only with the support of rhizomes can they have space to stretch toward the sky.
Cao took Liu Biao's place in Jingzhou, and then claimed to be the master of Jingzhou. However, in fact, different people have different perceptions of the concept of "master". For example, a servant of the inner palace would bully those who said
The speechless master is just like the officials in a capitalist country who claim to serve the voters, but in fact they are deceiving, suppressing and exploiting.
After all, looking for sin in the victim and finding advantages in the perpetrator is similar to forcing a good person into prostitution and persuading a prostitute to be a good person. It often occurs in the same person, and it is not necessarily limited to the profession of prostitution. These two special effects will be triggered.
.
Xiahou Zizang triggered this special effect.
The brain is actually a dynamically balanced thing, just like a computer's CPU. If too much is allocated to a certain program, other programs must wait before they can run. If the running level of the subsequent programs is low, even if it is urgent,
The most you can do is hang up and wait.
In Xiahou Zizang's head, these five procedures, eating, drinking, playing, having fun and whoring, have the highest level. Among them, the level of "playing" is the highest among the five. As long as you can have fun, you can ignore the others for the time being. In a certain
Sometimes, Xiahou Zizang was not unaware that when he "played" something, it might lead to bad consequences, but because the level of "playing" was so high, he didn't understand or didn't know the consequences.
But I don't have the brain to think about it.
It's like escaping to Xiangyang. Is it possible to avoid the 15th day of the Lunar New Year?
It's not that Xiahou Zizang didn't know about this problem, it was just that when he thought that he had to take responsibility and have no more fun, his brain was not enough. He could only think about how to ensure that he had enough fun and kept playing. Anyway, for a while
Playing is fun for a while, and it will always be fun if you keep playing. You can play as long as you can, and you will be happy as long as you can. Anyone who doesn't let me play is my enemy, and whoever lets me enjoy it is my relative.
When they arrived in Xiangyang, Cao Ren was not clear about the situation at first. Xiahou Zizang naturally started to play again, and the gentry children in Xiangyang naturally followed him. Anyway, the so-called beauties are just living objects of the upper class.
Who is playing but not playing?
When the news reached Xiangyang, Xiahou Zizang's good days were suddenly cut in half.
The external announcement certainly means that Xiahou Zizang is ill...
The descendants of the Xiangyang gentry clan are like oh oh oh.
Who believes it?
Only a fool would believe it.
Yesterday I had a good waist and good legs, and my health was as good as the other two. But today I feel sick?
Then when I asked...
Search until death, wow click.
In Xiangyang City, although Jingzhou is divided into north and south, and the world is uncertain from east to west, there are still many people who have died in drunken dreams. Restaurants are still the most prosperous place, and the shops are the most luxurious. Even the decoration and furnishings in a house can feed a family of ordinary people.
More than ten years, decades!
Now in the restaurant with the largest venue and the most gorgeous decoration in Xiangyang City, many people have gathered here. After learning about Xiahou Zizang, some people saw the joke, some were indifferent, and some brought
Those who have a nonchalant attitude and still want to see more jokes.
In the final analysis, the children of the Jingzhou gentry are still too idle.
Even if the world falls apart in the next moment, they can still drink and sing loudly at this moment.
While drinking and drinking, it was inevitable that hot topics would come up, and Xiahou Zizang's jokes would naturally become the condiments at the table, accompanied by the flow of drinks.
"Is this a problem with the Xiahou Cao family? Isn't this going to turn the world upside down? Where can I put the Prime Minister's face?"
"Well, you can't say that. General Xiahou just gave birth to a son some time ago, and now he can't just say that he has given birth to a second son! Isn't this killing the goose to get the egg? Even General Xiahou has a good temper, he can't stand it!"
"Aha! You used the word "fold" very well!"
"Right, they are all from my family! If I say something bold here, it is actually just a formality to show to others!"
"How did you say this?"
"Isn't this on the surface? Xiahouzi was afraid that the public resentment was too big and could not be solved without dealing with it, so he took a circuit through Youbei and waited a few years. Who would remember it? Come back then, eh,
It's just right to be promoted to an official position, beautiful!"
"Shut up! Is this what you can say? These days, I just want to be safe and don't offend anyone. Your bald mouth will cause trouble..."
"What trouble can there be? It's just a death! In this world, there is sorrow and joy, and that's all there is to think about! Tell me, the emperor is still suffering from our sorrow!"
"Hey! The more you talk, the more excited you become, don't you? Drink, drink, shut up! Stop talking!"
The crowd was in a commotion. Some people had been staying for a long time, and some people were new. It was like a gathering of flies, some were rubbing their heads, some were shaking their legs. As soon as some stood up, others sat down. This
They call each other brother, but that one is uncle and nephew. On the left is a glass of wine, and on the right is a face full of saliva. Some are laughing and joking, while others are sighing.
Things in the world are often said without intention and listened to with intention.
Those who keep shouting for a long time may not take any action at all, while those who keep silent are often the ones who really do things.
At night, when the hustle and bustle in the market subsides, Xiahou Zizang's worries emerge.
"Uncle Zixiao didn't protect me!"
Xiahou Zizang couldn't believe it. In his memory, Cao Ren was the one he was closest to, and of course Cao Hong was the same. When he was a child, Xiahou Zizang often went to Cao Ren's house to play, and when he got tired from playing, he would sleep in Cao Ren's house, and even
It doesn't matter if I don't go home for a few days.
But now, Xiahou Zizang suddenly couldn't feel Cao Ren's "love" for him, as if the sky was gray.
Xiahou Zizang suddenly felt very pitiful and sad, as if the whole world had abandoned him. His father did not love him, his people did not love him, and now even his uncle did not love him. Of course, this was
He thought that just like he thought that his father, who was away at war all year round and had no time to take care of his family, did not love him, and that his mother, who only knew how to feed, drink, clothe, and lecture and nag him every day, also did not love him.
As for whether his father works hard and whether his mother works hard, what does he do?
Aren't those things parents should do?
Isn't that right? His father, Xiahou Dun, was busy trying to get promoted and make a fortune, how could it be considered to be for him? His mother's clothes, food, etc., he was not the only one who ate, drank, and clothed, so how could it be considered that it was all for him?
Even if he did some wrong things, the ultimate reason is that his parents did not teach him well when he was young, did not abandon the military and government affairs of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, and did not devote all their energy and time to accompany him to grow up.
, serve him to become a talent.
Therefore, he cannot feel the warmth of family.
He hoped that his father would not have to lead the army in battles, and would not have to go to the government office to do errands, but would play with him every day. His mother would not need to provide this and that for the whole family, and would only need to take care of him alone. That would be the real thing.
Love! This is the warmth of family!
Xiahou Zizang walked back and forth in the yard, complaining about this and resenting that, but he never expressed any problem with himself. Yes, what problem could he have? He was just a child, what could he have?
Wrong? His friends never said anything was wrong with him. Every one of his friends in the world praised him! Only his parents disliked him every day, so he felt that his friends were right.
His parents were both wrong.
"Lang Jun, it's getting late..."
The confidant of Xiahou Zizang's bodyguard said cautiously.
Xiahou Zizang didn't want to sleep, so they naturally didn't have to sleep.
Xiahou Zizang was worried, and they were also worried, but they had nothing to do. After all, those who really had some methods could not follow Xiahou Zang for long.
"Sleep, sleep on your ass!" Xiahou Zizang suddenly became furious, roared, and beat the bodyguard who had just spoken with his fists and feet.
The bodyguard held his head, protecting his vitals, and was beaten by Xiahou Zizang like a fleshy sandbag. The other bodyguards secretly watched, but did not come to break up the fight. Anyway, this was not the first time.
The guards were wearing leather armor, but Xiahou Zizang was just venting his anger. He did not hit the vital points, nor did he use a knife or a gun. Xiahou Zizang had never practiced martial arts. He was too tired, and he had not read many books. The reason
It's the same, he feels tired, but this does not prevent him from imagining that he will become a great general in the future, and then with a wave of his hand, thousands of troops will gallop forward, and he will win every battle...
So when Xiahou Zang hit someone, it was just a few hits, and he just carried it away casually.
It was the same this time. After screaming and punching and kicking for a while, Xiahou Zizang became tired and stopped breathing heavily.
At first, the soldiers sent by Cao Ren to place Xiahou Zizang under house arrest would stick their heads out to take a look, fearing that something had happened. Later, they got used to it, and they were always making a scene anyway. At first, they were still laughing, but later
I just don't even bother to read the jokes.
After venting his anger, he became a little tired. Xiahou Zang sat helplessly and waved his hand after a while, "Sleep, sleep..."
"Whoosh!"
"Crack!"
Suddenly, an arrow was shot from outside the courtyard and landed in the courtyard, immediately frightening Xiahou Zizang and others.
The arrow head was removed, the gray tail feathers were fluttering in the night wind, and silk cloth seemed to be tied to the arrow shaft.
"who?!"
Xiahou Zizang's bodyguard shrank his head and looked around.
It was quiet outside the courtyard wall, but there was no response.
Xiahou Zang pointed at the arrow.
The bodyguard stepped forward to take the arrow, and then removed the silk cloth from the arrow shaft.
""I heard that Xiongtai was imprisoned and suffered injustice. I deeply felt that the world was unfair and was tossing and turning."..." Xiahou Zizang asked someone to hold a light, then looked at it, and said happily, "Isn't that right? The world is unfair."
, it’s just that the world is unfair! Look, how well written it is, how right it is... "I have a great talent, but I was trapped by Xiao Xiao, I can’t help but sigh"..."
Xiahou Zizang almost shed tears when he saw this. He choked up and sniffed twice.
There are still people in this world who understand me!
Even my parents cannot understand me, but they are still my friends. These people outside me who are not real brothers but better than real brothers can understand me!
"..."In the moment of urgency, it is really difficult to clear my brother's grievances and vindicate his charges." Xiahou Zizang continued to watch and read, "Therefore, I have a plan to temporarily escape from prison"..."
After Xiahou Zizang read this, he suddenly stopped, looked around, grabbed the lamp held by the guards around him, and then chased people away, "Okay, you all go down! Go to bed, go to bed."
Come on! You are no longer needed here! No one can tell anyone about this arrow book! Do you understand?』
The three or four guards on the left and right looked at each other and could only agree to stand down.
After the personal guards left, Xiahou Zizang eagerly picked up the silk cloth again and looked at it carefully. Then a smile appeared on his face, and the corners of his mouth opened wider and wider...
On the other side of Xiangyang City, in the darkness, someone rustled through the alley, opened a corner door, then followed the path, passed through the corridor, and came to a hall to prostrate himself, "Your Majesty."
...』
In the darkness of the hall, a voice sounded faintly, "Is everything done?"
"If you return to the Lord, everything has been done. The arrow has been shot into the courtyard..." The man fell to the ground and replied in an orderly manner, "The ditch and fence have been poured with acid and vinegar, and there is nothing like ordinary decay."
Both...the boats were also abandoned in the meanders of the river...all the utensils were purchased and prepared by different people from different places, without any trace..."
The man reported one item after another, and then said: "My lord, it seems that that person may not be able to escape... The ditch smells bad, and it's cold..." In his opinion, Xiahou Zang
It is impossible to endure this while waiting for the Yameni, so those things that have been prepared may not be used. Even if there is a complete route planned and the patrol interval of the soldiers, it is unlikely that the Yameni who is pampered all day long will be able to do it smoothly.
He fled, and there was no way he would be arrested again on the way.
The voice in the darkness seemed to chuckle, "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether you escape or not... You have been living in the courtyard for the past few days... You have done nothing, you don't know anything...
understand?"
"Wei!" The man kowtowed in response.
In the darkness, the subtle sound of clothes rubbing together sounded, and then the sound of gentle footsteps gradually faded away.
On the night of the next day, Xiahou Zizang began to escape. He led his people to find a ladder that someone had accidentally left behind, climbed over the wall, then gritted his teeth and endured the stench and cold, sneaked into the ditch, and pushed down the
The fence was corroded to a thin line, and then he successfully found the hidden boat. However, he was delayed in the river for too long because he didn't know how to paddle, and was finally caught by the patrolling soldiers...
Then Xiahou Zizang became the best joke in Xiangyang City and even Jingzhou area in the seventh year of Taixing.
No matter in the streets or in restaurants, everyone is laughing, beaming, and telling vivid stories that they may have never seen with their own eyes, but it will be more detailed and more flavorful than seeing it with their own eyes...
…
"Tell me! Who is it that gave you the arrow book?" Cao Ren held back his anger and asked Xiahou Zizang with clenched fists. He stood a little further away. On the one hand, it was because of the stench on Xiahou Zizang's body, and on the other hand, he was afraid of holding back for a while.
I will kill this guy soon.
"I don't know! This is what fell from the sky!" Xiahou Zizang shouted, "Uncle, I don't dare anymore. I am wrong. I am wrong. Why don't you go and get the clothes?"
, so that I can change my clothes..."
"At this time, you are still protecting your bad friends!" Cao Ren raised his eyebrows, "I ask you one last time! Do you want to say it or not?! Are you going to protect those friends of yours until your death?!
