Four hundred and seventieth chapters try to figure out
Luo Yang was sitting in his study, looking at Cao Ang sitting in front of him, and he couldn't help but sigh. The scene when he and Cao Cao met for the first time in Luo Yang was still vivid in his mind. In the blink of an eye, Cao Cao's son was so old!
While Luo Yang was watching Cao Ang, Cao Ang was also observing Luo Yang.
Ever since Cao Ang could remember, the name he heard most from his father was Luo Yang. Cao Ang clearly remembered all the changes in his father's attitude towards Luo Yang, from Chen Liu's admiration before the alliance to his fear and sigh afterward!
Cao Ang has always wanted to see what the person who could make his fearless father so scrupulous look like, but today he finally got his wish!
The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally Luo Yang smiled slightly, but he was the first to break the deadlock and said: "Haha, when Brother Meng De and I were officials together in Luoyang, we heard Brother Meng De mention his eldest son.
He is smart and has his own demeanor! I don't think much about meeting my nephew today! The nephew's magnanimity is obviously much better than that of Brother Meng De back then!" Luo Yang and Cao Cao were considered equals, so in this calculation,
Although Luo Yang is only about ten years older than Cao Ang, it is right to call Cao Ang his nephew!
Cao Ang smiled faintly, bowed his hands respectfully to Luo Yang, and said, "The general is so complimentary!"
"Hey!" Cao Ang just said this and was interrupted by Luo Yang. Luo Yang smiled and waved his hand and said: "Your father and I have known each other for many years. Today we will only talk about uncles and nephews, not those scenes!
You don’t need to call me a general, and I don’t need to call you a loner! Everyone can just be more casual! Why make it so complicated!"
When Luo Yang said this, Cao Ang smiled and said: "Since my uncle said this, my nephew would rather obey his orders than be respectful!"
"Well!" Luo Yang nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Xiannephew, your father and I have not seen each other for many years. I just don't know how well your father has been in these years? Oh! During this time, I have often
I remember when we fought side by side against Dong's thieves! Time flies so fast, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye! Time is not forgiving!"
"Haha!" Cao Ang also said with a smile on his face: "When my father was in Yanzhou, he often mentioned his uncle's name. When talking about the heroes of the world, he was the first! My father was also proud to be able to fight alongside his uncle back then!
"
Luo Yang did not take the initiative to mention Cao Ang's entry into Chang'an this time, but Cao Ang also avoided the matter. The two really seemed like a pair of uncles and nephews who had not seen each other for a long time, and they started chatting about home affairs. This chat was enough to talk about.
After nearly an hour, Luo Yang was a little surprised when he saw that Cao Ang had no leaks. He raised his head and looked at the sky outside the window, but he smiled and said: "Oh! Look at my brain! I actually lost track of time during this conversation! Nephew!
I just arrived in Chang'an today. I must be very tired after a long journey! Someone is here!"
"Lord! The villain is here!" Li Gui, who had been waiting outside, immediately walked in, clasped his fists and shouted at Luo Yang.
Luo Yang directly ordered: "Prepare a room for Young Master Cao! Let Young Master Cao have a good rest! Also, Young Master Cao's subordinates must also settle down well, and must not be neglected! Do you understand?"
"Please rest assured, my lord! The villain will definitely do everything right!" After saying that, Li Gui walked up to Cao Ang with a big stride, saluted Cao Ang, then made a gesture of invitation and said
: "Mr. Cao! Please follow me!"
Cao Ang always maintained an indifferent smile, nodded to Li Gui, and then bowed to Luo Yang and said, "Uncle! My nephew will leave first!" After that, he got up and followed Li Gui and left.
Go out without stopping at all.
After confirming that Cao Ang was gone, the smile on Luo Yang's face immediately disappeared without a trace, and he said in a deep voice: "Fengxiao! Shiyuan! You can come out now!"
As soon as Luo Yang finished speaking, Guo Jia and Pang Tong filed out from behind the screen next to the small living room, bowed their hands to Luo Yang, and then sat down at Luo Yang's lower position. Luo Yang had a gloomy face and looked at the two.
The person said: "You two also saw it just now, how about it? Did you see the details in it?"
The faces of Guo Jia and Pang Tong were not very good either. Pang Tong thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "My lord! This Cao Ang is not simple! At such an age, his words are flawless! It seems that Cao Cao's education of this eldest son is poor.
It’s been a lot of hard work!”
Luo Yang laughed bitterly, isn't this nonsense! Cao Cao naturally valued his son very much! What's more, this Cao Ang is Cao Cao's eldest son, which is equivalent to Cao Cao's heir! Historically, this Cao Ang died in the Battle of Wancheng, but from the
The fact that Cao Cao can take Cao Ang with him shows that Cao Cao loves this son! Immediately, Luo Yang smiled bitterly and said: "This son has a deep city! I think he has the true inheritance of Cao Mengde! It's a pity that he can't find out during cross-examination.
What is the purpose of this kid!"
And Guo Jia also sighed deeply and said: "My subordinates can only reluctantly see that Cao Ang's visit to Chang'an this time is probably not malicious! From the fact that he was able to be taken down by the Jin Yiwei calmly without any resistance, according to the subordinates'
See, I’m afraid he was caught by the Jin Yiwei on purpose! Otherwise, with the skills of his followers, it wouldn’t be that difficult to protect him from the Jin Yiwei’s pursuit!”
"But, since this kid was caught by Jin Yiwei on purpose, he must have something to do with me! Then why didn't he say a word just now?" Regarding Guo Jia's analysis, Luo Yang and Pang Tong both nodded.
I agree, but the problem is that Cao Ang didn't leak a word just now. Even Guo Jia and Pang Tong, two highly intelligent counselors, couldn't guess what Cao Ang wanted to do!
Luo Yang suddenly seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said: "According to the Jin Yiwei's report, this arrest of Cao Ang did not capture all of Cao Ang's men! It seems that Deng Zhan, who came to Chang'an with Cao Ang, escaped! And it seems that Deng Zhan, who came to Chang'an with Cao Ang, escaped!
Jinyiwei once questioned Cao Ang at that time, but Cao Ang refused to say anything! Let's see, you two, does Cao Ang's attitude have anything to do with this matter?"
When Luo Yang just finished speaking, Guo Jia and Pang Tong had no reaction, but after a while, their eyes lit up at the same time, and Guo Jia immediately said: "It's related! Maybe, everything
The key lies in Deng Zhan! If my subordinates guessed correctly, Deng Zhan must have another thing to do! And Cao Ang delayed it with the lord in order to buy Deng Zhan time!"
"Yes! Master Guo's opinion is the same as that of his subordinates!" Pang Tong also nodded and said: "Cao Ang and Deng Zhan must have two different tasks when they come to Chang'an this time! Cao Ang came to see the lord for one of the tasks.
! And this Deng Zhan is going to perform another mission! However, if Cao Ang is so confident that Deng Zhan can complete the mission under the pursuit of the Jin Yiwei, then what exactly is this Deng Zhan going to do? "
Guo Jia thought about the last question raised by Pang Tong for a moment, then gave a high-five and shouted: "That's right! That's right! I know! In Chang'an City, the only force that can stop the Jin Yiwei is
There are only those princes and ministers! Then Deng Zhan must have been ordered by Cao Cao to contact those princes and ministers! That’s right! That must be the case! Cao Cao must want to join forces with those princes and ministers in the court to restrict the lord’s actions!”
Guo Jia's words also woke up Pang Tong, and Pang Tong's eyes sparkled. He continued with Pang Tong's words: "Contrary to Deng Zhan, Cao Ang's purpose should be to represent Cao Cao to express his kindness to his lord! It seems that Cao Cao also knows
I can't completely believe those princes and ministers! Letting Cao Ang express his kindness to the lord on his behalf certainly does not mean that Cao Cao wants to surrender to the lord! The only explanation is that Cao Cao wants to ease the bad relationship with the lord so that he can continue
Develop your own strength!”
This is the ability of a top counselor. He knew nothing at the beginning, but he analyzed the whole thing in such a short period of time just relying on such a clue that Luo Yang inadvertently said! If Cao Ang still
If he stayed here, he would probably be so surprised that his eyes would pop out! Because Guo Jia and Pang Tong were like roundworms in his stomach, figuring out his thoughts!
After listening to the analysis of Guo Jia and Pang Tong, Luo Yang also lowered his head and started thinking. Luo Yang did not have any doubts about the results analyzed by Guo Jia and Pang Tong. He trusted the abilities of these two people! According to what these two people said,
Cao Cao obviously does not plan to go to war with him in the short term, so should he agree to Cao Cao's request?
If it were three years ago, before Luo Yang defeated Dong Zhuo, Luo Yang would definitely not agree! In Luo Yang's view, among the heroes in the world, the one who poses the greatest threat to him is Cao Cao! He must take advantage of the fact that Cao Cao is still strong
When he is weak, destroying Cao Cao in one fell swoop is the best solution!
But things are different now. Luoyang occupies half of the country and blocks Hangu Pass, which is equivalent to squeezing Cao Cao, Sun Jian and other princes to the east! It can be said that it completely strangles Cao Cao's development momentum! Even if Cao Cao has another chance
In Luo Yang's opinion, he can't make too many mistakes!
On the contrary, Luoyang, who had just experienced the Ma Teng Rebellion, had successfully controlled Liangzhou under his control, but there were many things to solve! The first was to completely eliminate the Ma family's influence in Liangzhou! Ma
Although Teng is dead, the Ma family operated in Yongzhou and Liangzhou during the period, and the influence left behind does not disappear just because it disappears!
Secondly, with Ma Teng's death, the alien races in the northwest that had been frightened by Ma Teng also showed signs of getting ready to move! What Luo Yang has to do next is to spend a lot of effort to solve the troubles of these alien races! At least,
We must beat them until they are as afraid of themselves as they were before the Ma family!
