Cao Song was a little stunned when he heard Tao Qian's words. He felt that there was something wrong with his ears. Tao Qian's words were clearly saying that he wanted to find a home for Xuzhou, and his son Cao Cao seemed to him to be good. He hoped that Cao Cao
Becoming a Mu in Xuzhou can treat the people better and take care of his two sons.
Cao Song now feels that his eldest son is destined to be his destiny. Just like Guangwu in the past, someone offered the territory to Xuzhou before anyone came to it. It is also one of the most important grain-producing areas in the world today, and the requirements are still
Take care of his son and don't let him lose the Tao family's incense. If I go, I won't lose a pie in the sky, I will lose a gold mountain.
With most of Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Yingchuan, Nanyang, and Xuzhou in his hands, the Cao family is about to rise after a slight integration of these territories.
When the aristocratic family reaches the point of no further development, nine out of ten will focus on that only position. The Cao family originally did not have the qualifications, but when Cao Cao held a state in his hands, Cao Song had some ideas, and now Tao Qian hinted
To give Xuzhou to Cao Cao, Cao Song no longer had any idea about the supreme position, but felt that he could actually pursue it.
"How dare you do that?" Of course Cao Song did not dare to agree at this time. Although he could feel Tao Qian's sincerity, even if the other party was sincere, you should not be impatient. This kind of thing must be slow and slow in order to be stable.
Complete the handover, otherwise it would be ridiculous to directly obtain power from Tao Qian and all his subordinates turn against him!
"Brother Jugao, don't worry. I, Tao Gongzu, feel deeply that I am old and weak and lack the energy to exercise the power of state pastor for a long time. Even if brother Jugao doesn't help recommend a virtuous person, I will not be able to support him." He said.
Tao Qian coughed twice, and a touch of blood appeared on his face.
"Gongzu, please rest assured. I will work with you to recommend virtuous people to protect Xuzhou's well-being and the Tao family's comfort." Cao Song did not agree to come immediately. Some things can be delayed to gain greater benefits. Although now
The benefits have been huge.
Tao Qian felt reassured when he heard Cao Song's promise and sighed, "Cao Bao, bring my two sons to meet Brother Jugao."
Soon Tao Qian's two sons were brought over by Cao Bao, and they saluted Cao Song. One was careless, the other was timid, "My nephew has met Uncle Cao."
Tao Qian waved his hand and signaled Cao Bao to take his two sons out. He smiled bitterly and said to Cao Song, "Brother Jugao is ridiculous. My two sons really can't be on the stage. Otherwise, I wouldn't want to be like this! Now I'm old.
I also need to find a way out for my son. Brother Jugao, for the sake of our acquaintance, I will give you a little more support when I have the opportunity, and don’t let the dog live on the street."
"How can this be so!" Cao Song said righteously, "Just with that uncle, how can my two nephews endure hardship for a day with me, Cao Jugao? What's more, my eldest son is a benevolent and filial person. I will definitely tell you when I leave.
He treats his two nephews well as if they were brothers!"
Cao Song was so cruel that he even said the oath. After all, this was related to his Cao family's hegemony for generations. As long as he could capture Xuzhou and contribute to the rise of the Cao family, Cao Song felt that it was worthwhile for him to do so.
"Thank you very much, Brother Jugao. Qian would like to thank you for this." Tao Qian distanced himself and bowed to Cao Song. His father really went to the limit to do this for his son. After all, as Tao Qian,
Now there is no need to give this gift to anyone.
Cao Song was startled, "Gongzu, please get up quickly, don't do this! Don't do this!"
Cao Song quickly stood up and pulled Tao Qian up. Although the two of them were kneeling and drinking, Tao Qian's gift completely shocked Cao Song. If he was still a little skeptical before, he was completely convinced now.
Tao Qian's sincerity was so great that he really went to such a step for his son.
"How pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are." Cao Song held Tao Qian's arms with both hands, pulled Tao Qian up and said, "Gongzu, I, Cao Jugao, swear here that if my Cao family really takes over Xuzhou, then your son I
They will be replaced by their own children, and your descendants will be like the Cao family. If my Cao family has a mouthful to eat, your Tao family will never miss a mouthful!"
Cao Song's words were very rustic, but such rustic words are what an old father needs. What he wants is Cao Song's oath. Only when Cao Song swears to treat his descendants well will Tao Qian hand over the biggest bargaining chip in his hand.
"Brother Jugao is laughing..." Tao Qian wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves. After struggling in his youth, Tao Qian finally realized that everything was just for his own children and grandchildren. After seeing his two sons, he only
After learning how to eat, drink and have fun, Tao Qian completely gave up fighting for hegemony and instead looked for potential stocks that could become his son's backer.
"Oh, it's all for the sake of future generations. At my age, I can understand all Gongzu's thoughts and considerations." Cao Song sighed and said, "Aren't we working hard all our lives so that future generations will suffer less? We will see it when we are old.
Although we are heartbroken when our children and grandchildren are unfilial, they still have little plans for it. If we don’t act like parents, we won’t know how hard it is.”
"..." Tao Qian nodded with concern, "Brother Jugao, let's get rid of all our worries by drinking."
After Tao Qian made sure to choose a supporter for his sons, he pulled Cao Song to drink like crazy without any worries. Ever since his energy began to decline and his body began to fail, he hadn't drank so much without any scruples for a long time. For the sake of his children and grandchildren,
He even gave up his last remaining hobby, and now he has finally found a way out for his son. He can drink without any scruples. Even if he dies, someone will take care of his son on his behalf.
Cao Song's reason is that Xuzhou has basically been included in his pocket, and the Cao family is expected to prosper, and future generations may enjoy endless glory, wealth, and ecstasy. Naturally, there are people to share it with him.
Naturally, the two old men who planned for future generations were very drunk and did not wake up until early the next morning.
"Brother Jugao, have a good trip. I'm waiting for you to come again." Tao Qian stood at the gate of the city and saluted Cao Song.
"Hahaha, Gongzu, let's say goodbye. I will come. Even if I can't come, my eldest son will come in my place. Don't worry, Gongzu." Cao Song said with a smile, but he didn't know this.
Once the words are spoken, they become a prophecy!
"When the time comes, the two of us will have a drink and chat, and Cao Bao will give Brother Jugao a ride for me." Tao Qian looked at Cao Song's meandering motorcade and said to his general Cao Bao.
"Here!" Cao Bao led his generals and more than a thousand people to protect Cao Song and left. It wasn't until Cao Bao left his general Zhang Kai and 500 soldiers thirty miles away that he slowly retreated.
"Thank you, General Cao, for sending me off!" Cao Song saluted Cao Bao while sitting on his horse.
"Zhang Kai, remember to protect Duke Cao for me!" Cao Bao warned loudly.
"The rest of the journey depends on the general's protection." Cao Song smiled at Zhang Kai and said.
"Please ask Mr. Cao to give more advice in the future." Zhang Kai said with a fist in his hand.
