Fei Qian finally completed the entire apprenticeship ceremony. It was really not easy, especially when he finally presented the apprenticeship, two old men - Cai Yong and Liu Hong stood up, making Fei Qian hold him in high esteem.
Shu Xiu didn't even know what to do.
Fortunately, Liu Hong and Cai Yong had already communicated in private about the distribution, and each of them reached out and took half of it. This was considered to have solved Fei Qian's siege and successfully completed the ceremony.
But even so, it made the people on the side lose their eyes, and they were even more envious and jealous of Fei Qian - having Cai Yong, a great figure in the literary world, as his master was enough to make people jealous, and in addition
Liu Hong, a great figure in arithmetic, is simply unreasonable. No one else can get a single one, but this man has two lives. What is his name? Go back and write a villain and pin it on him...
It is said that being a disciple of Cai Yong is really good. The apprenticeship gift did not cost much, but the return gifts were a lot - "Zuo Zhuan" from Master Cai Yong, "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic Notes" from Master Liu Hong, senior brother
Cao Cao gave him a jade pendant. What excited Fei Qian the most was that Cai Yan also gave him a gift - the two rolls of sheepskins for Shendu and Dashi...
There is actually a glass bead, it looks so much like something I made before...
Well, it doesn’t matter what the gift is. What matters is who gave it well. Let’s not talk about anything else. Just speaking of what Cai Yan and Cai Zhaoji gave, even if it is a piece of straw paper, it is good.
Cai Yong said that there are three other senior brothers who are not in Luoyang at the moment, so they should introduce them to each other when there is a chance in the future - Fei Qian secretly made a note, well, there are still three return gifts to be collected...
These three senior brothers are Gu Yong, Ruan Yu, Lu Cui, and Cao Cao is the fourth. If Cai Yan is also included, then Fei Qian is Cai Yong's sixth disciple.
Senior brother Gu Yong, Fei Qian seems to have some impression that he is either from Jingzhou or Yangzhou, and it seems that he was under Sun Quan of Soochow in the end. As for the other two senior brothers, Ruan Yu and Lu Cui, Fei Qian is really a little bit
I have no impression at all, so I will have to slowly inquire about it in the future.
After worshiping the master, there will be a big banquet, which seems to be the same in ancient and modern times.
Fei Qian let Cai Yong and Liu Hong lead him to the Zuixian Tower, the largest restaurant in Luoyang City, to propose a glass of wine to the high official of the imperial court and to the scholar. Even though he was a warrior tested by alcohol in later generations,
Unable to bear the crowd, he walked around a few times and toasted each other. Finally, Fei Qian couldn't bear it any longer and passed out from the drunkenness...
****************
Different from Fei Qian's happiness, Cao Cao is very hesitant now.
During Fei Qian's apprenticeship ceremony, Yuan Shu found him and told him his plan to rescue the young emperor, which surprised him.
I didn't expect that Yuan Jiujiu would have such courage! To be honest, Cao Cao had never thought about reporting on Yuan Shu. Although they had not dealt with each other very much over the years, after all, they were once brothers, so reporting on them was inevitable.
Did some work.
On the other hand, this plan had a fatal attraction for him.
If it were others, they might still be hesitant and fearful of this and that, but Cao Cao was different. The case of his grandfather Cao Teng was something he had been familiar with and admired since he was a child.
In August of the first year of Jiankang, Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty passed away, and Emperor Han Chong, the son of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty who had just turned two years old, succeeded to the throne. In the first month of the first year of Yongxiu, Emperor Han Chong, who had succeeded to the throne for less than half a year, died mysteriously. At that time,
Said he died of illness.
Two emperors dying within one year is not a good thing.
Therefore, the ministers at that time all believed that an older and virtuous clan member should be appointed as emperor, at least he would not die so easily.
After much discussion, the Qingliu people all preferred Liu Lian, the king of Qinghe, but the general Liang Ji, a relative, had different opinions. In order for him to continue to be in power, he insisted on making Liu Zan, the son of Liu Hong, the Xiaowang of Bohai, who was only eight years old, as emperor.
He was the Emperor of Han Zhi.
Therefore, it is not unprecedented for Dong Zhuo's relatives to become emperors.
Later, under Qingliu's constant teaching and encouragement, Emperor Zhi of the Han Dynasty felt that the general Liang Ji who supported him was becoming more and more disgusting, so he turned against him and once openly called Liang Ji a "domineering general" in a court meeting.
Then, of course, Emperor Han Zhi's little arms and legs couldn't twist the general Liang Ji, and he was tragically poisoned to death by Liang Ji...
After the death of Emperor Zhi of the Han Dynasty, the court officials continued to divide into two factions. One faction was led by Qingliu Minister Li Gu and supported King Qinghe as emperor; the other faction was led by his relative and general Liang Ji and supported Liu Zhi to ascend the throne.
As for how Emperor Zhi of the Han Dynasty died, no one is going to investigate - they are all dead anyway, is there any point in pursuing that? It would be more practical to get some credit now...
And the greatest achievement is to support the new emperor——
While the dispute between the two factions continued, Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng saw that the opportunity was ripe and visited Liang Ji in person. He expressed the support of the eunuchs headed by him and pointed out that King Qinghe was a strict man. If King Qinghe was made emperor, I am afraid that
It is difficult to ensure peace, but if you establish your will, you can maintain wealth and honor for a long time.
The foreign relatives and eunuchs joined forces, and Qingliu had to retreat steadily. Later, Liang Ji and Cao Teng supported Liu Zhi as emperor, who was Emperor Huan of Han.
After Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty came to the throne, Cao Teng was named Feitinghou for his merits in making policies, and was promoted to Dachangqiu, and was given the title of Special Advancement.
Now it seems that there is a similar opportunity in front of Cao Cao. After the Young Emperor of the Han Dynasty was deposed, if Dong Zhuo's new emperor cannot last long, then the Young Emperor of the Han Dynasty will have the opportunity to ascend the throne again. At that time, Cao Cao, who rescued the Young Emperor from the fire and water, will be with him.
Like his grandfather Cao Teng, he had made extraordinary contributions and was granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister.
Of course, this is also accompanied by a lot of risks, but if you want to be rich, you don’t have to take risks? Is it worth it or not to exchange a temporary risk for a lifetime of wealth?
Cao Cao was a little hesitant, so before Fei Qian's apprenticeship banquet was over, he hurried home to discuss it with his father, Cao Song. After all, this matter, whether it succeeded or failed, would involve the whole family.
Cao Song listened to Cao Cao quietly and asked Cao Cao: "What does my son want? If things fail, where will you leave the Cao family?" - The fact that you came to me to discuss it shows that you actually have something to do.
But if it fails, what will the Cao family do?
"My child has not thought about it. It's just that the opportunity cannot be missed..." Cao Cao lowered his head and said with great reluctance, "If my father doesn't allow it... that's all..."
Cao Song looked at his son in front of him, and his full words turned into a sigh. What can he say? This son dares to risk his life to gain wealth, how can he still say that for the sake of your father's wealth and life, you should stop doing it?
Even if I say it, will this son who is full of ambition listen willingly?
"You, go ahead." Cao Song said after a long silence, "Father... agreed..."
"Wei!" Cao Cao lay down, kowtowed to his father Cao Song, then turned and left.
"Aha!" Cao Song stopped Cao Cao, who had taken two steps out. His lips trembled a few times, and finally he just said, "...my son...take care of yourself..."
Cao Cao bowed once more and strode out, leaving Cao Song in the room gradually swallowed up by the shadows.
***************
On that day, Cao Song packed up his belongings and left Luoyang with Cao Cao's three younger brothers Cao De, Cao Bin and Cao Yu before the city gate closed and went to Liu Rong, the king of Langxie in Xuzhou.
