I originally thought I could be back before eight o'clock, but I didn't want to get stuck in traffic and didn't get home until nine-thirty.
I have been busy all day and had a meal with Lin Hai, the Emperor, and Ming Mei, so I owe another three thousand words today.
Including the previous three thousand words, the total is six thousand.
I will make up for it tomorrow and I will never break my promise.
————————————————————————————
Xudu, calm down.
But under the calmness, there is endless murderous intent hidden.
Kong Rong and others opened fire again, but not against Cao Peng, but instead brought up the old conversation again, talking about how Cao Peng and Yuan Shao could coexist.
In the hearts of Kong Rong and others, Yuan Shao was still stronger than Cao Cao after all.
In any case, Yuan Shao is the son of the fourth generation and the third son, and Cao Cao... Although his family has been filled with eunuchs for generations, they are not as good as Yuan Shao after all. Moreover, there is also Cao Teng among them. In those days, due to the calamity of the party, the scholars
The suppression by the eunuchs was so severe that Kong Rong and others were always hostile to the eunuchs. Even though Cao Teng helped many eunuchs when he was in power, he still suffered some consequences.
Fortunately, Cao Teng has good character.
Even if Kong Rong and others wanted to find fault, they could only say something about the eunuch, but they could not attack Cao Teng too much.
In short, Cao Peng and Fu Wan seem to have been forgotten. Cao Cao has been silent, and Han Emperor Liu Xie has also remained silent, making everyone silent on this matter.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Tianlao is the place where the emperor imprisoned the ministers of the court.
After Fu finished his expression, he leaned against the wall with a pale face, his eyes were dull, and he looked lifeless.
Empress Fu held a bowl of stewed blood swallow, brought it to Fu Wan's mouth with a spoon, and said softly: "Dad, please drink some."
Fu Wan took a sip like a puppet on strings.
"Queen, what did Your Majesty say?"
After finishing a bowl of blood swallow porridge, I seemed to feel better.
Queen Fu put the bowl aside and shook her head, "Your Majesty said that Cao Sikong needs to speak up about this matter, otherwise it will be difficult for him to make a decision."
"Mengde, do you want me to die?"
After Fu finished, he closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.
"Then Wenju and the others..."
"Kong Rong and the others didn't say anything. They seemed to be waiting for Cao Sikong's answer."
Fu Wan showed an expression of regret, lowered his head, and said to himself: "If you make a wrong step, you will make a wrong step. This time, you may be in trouble."
"Why did the father say this? My daughter will definitely try to excuse her father."
"Where's Bingguo?"
"kindness?"
"Is there any news from Bingguo?"
Empress Fu hesitated for a moment and said softly: "There is no news about my younger brother yet, but there is no news that my younger brother has been arrested. He must be out of danger at this time. As long as he arrives in Longxi, there will be Huailihou to take care of him. Cao Sikong is afraid
Nothing can be done about him.
Father, my daughter never understands why you..."
Empress Fu finally couldn't help but expressed her doubts.
Indeed, with Fu Wan's usual calmness and wisdom, she actually made such a mistake, which really made Queen Fu a little confused.
Fu Wan closed his eyes and leaned against the wall. After a long while, he sighed, "It's hard to say anything!"
He was beginning to regret now that a great situation had ended like this. Cao Cao had now made it clear that he was using Cao Peng to trap him so that he could not have contact with the outside world. As his daughter was a queen, she could take care of him to the greatest extent.
But it is impossible to stay in this gloomy prison all day. Moreover, Empress Fu cannot come forward for many things, and he must come forward before they can be carried out...
With Cao Cao's ability, how could he not see through the mystery of this.
Even if Cao Peng is sacrificed and a resisting arm is cut off, Cao Cao will not suffer any loss.
"How is the situation in the palace?"
"not too good……"
"Well?"
"Xun Shangshu took Tian Yu as the temporary Sima of the side department and entered the palace gate.
It became very difficult for people in the palace to get out... and it was not easy for people outside the palace to come in. Linyi Marquis was blocked from the palace gate several times. Tian Yuyan was summoned by the Wutian family and was not allowed to enter easily. Xuezi
Chang Shi did go out once, but found that the guards were very tight, and he could not easily meet the Marquis of Linyi. In the end, he had to return to the palace... One more thing, Zhang Gongchao..."
"What's wrong with Zhang Xiang?"
"Zhang Gongche was dismissed from his official position, and now the official car order has been replaced by someone else."
It is in line with Cao Cao's habit to use the power of thunder to cut off the connections between the imperial party. The imperial party is leaderless, and Linyi Marquis Liu Guang has now become the focus of attention. As a result, I am afraid Liu Guang will no longer be able to act as before.
, at least for now, this is the case.
"Guandu..."
"Today Xun Shangshu came to report that Duke Cao was in Guandu and defeated Yuan Shao again."
"Yuan Benchu, I am really disappointed."
After Fuwan thought for a long time, he opened his eyes and said, "Please Leng Changshi try to inform the Marquis of Linyi not to take any action for the time being and wait and see how the situation develops.
Cao Mengde will let me go sooner or later!
The day the Guandu War ended was when I was released from prison.
Before that, we must not act rashly again. I think Mr. Cao has probably sharpened his sword, and we don’t want to touch its sharp edge."
Fu Wan has always been one of the leaders of the imperial party.
Although he made a wrong decision before, he soon came to his senses and started a new plan.
"Then Cao Peng..."
"Ignore him!" Fu Wan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Cao Youxue did me a lot of harm this time, but it's nothing to worry about. From my point of view, he is just a reckless man and cannot be taken seriously. The reason why he is today
The success is only due to the favor of the old thief Cao.
Sooner or later, I will repay this person a hundred times the humiliation of breaking my wrist."
After Fu finished speaking, he couldn't help but gnash his teeth. A sickly blush appeared on his pale face, and he wished he could tear Cao Peng into pieces.
Queen Fu frowned slightly and wanted to say something.
But Fu Wan said: "Daughter, don't say any more, and don't come to see me again in the future. Come to think of it, Xun Yu didn't dare to harm my life. In the future, you don't want to get too involved in the affairs of the court. You only need to serve His Majesty well."
.I'm fine here and don't feel any discomfort."
Queen Fu said in her heart: Father, I'm afraid you have seen it wrong again!
That Cao Peng is by no means as simple as you think. Taiwei Yang came in with a message, saying that he would be more wary of Cao Youxue. How can a person who can make even Taiwei Yang fear him be simple?
However, after seeing Fu Wan's haggard appearance, Queen Fu didn't know what to say.
After a long while, she could only whisper: "Father, please take care of yourself."
"By the way, try to find a way to contact Bingguo, but if it doesn't work, let him go to Wuwei and go directly to Ma Teng or Han Sui. Don't come back."
"yes!"
Queen Fu responded meekly and stayed with Fu for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.
After walking out of the prison, she boarded the luan chariot.
"Yukiko!"
"My slave is here."
Empress Fu's eyes flashed with ferocity, and she said softly: "Find an opportunity to kill that Cao Youxue."
Outside the car, Leng Fei, the Chang's Attendant, was startled, then nodded and said: "Don't worry, Queen, I have written it down... However, Cao Peng is now being detained in General Wei's Mansion, and is heavily guarded. If you want to kill him, I'm afraid it will take a while."
It’s also difficult to succeed. In this time, please..."
"Don't kill him until the war is over.
After the war is over, I want to see the head of Cao Youxue."
"Slave, you obey!"
The Luan car went along the road paved with gravel and headed towards Anle Palace.
Leng Fei, who had gray hair and a white face without any beard, stopped and glanced in the direction of General Wei's Mansion. The corner of his mouth curled up into a stern smile.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++++++++++++
Before I knew it, it was already April.
Cao Peng has been locked up in the cell of General Wei's Mansion for almost thirty days!
For thirty days, he lived a very leisurely life. Although he was in a prison, the jailers here did not dare to neglect him, so he did not suffer any crime. In addition, Xia Houlan and others helped Cao Peng, which made Cao Peng's life even more comfortable.
When he has nothing to do, he teaches some boxing and kicking skills to those flying beasts, or competes with Xiahou Lan in martial arts. Although Cao Ren did not come to visit him, he took good care of him.
Cao Peng said that he wanted to read a book.
So Cao Ren ordered someone to send him some books for his entertainment.
At the same time, he could also get the battle situation ahead immediately. Jia Xing would order people to send battle reports from Guandu to Cao Peng from time to time.
Sometimes, Jia Xing would visit Cao Peng in the prison, chatting about the local customs and customs.
The days passed like this day by day.
The fighting in the Battle of Guandu became increasingly fierce.
And Cao Peng seemed to be enjoying himself while sitting in prison...
For him, the Battle of Guandu is over! From the moment the Battle of Xiaotan in Yanjin ended, his journey to Guandu was over.
Cao Cao was surrounded by the best counselors in the world.
In addition to Xun Yu, Cao Cao's five great advisers Guo Jiacheng Yu, Jia Xu and Xun You are all on the front line, advising Cao Cao. At the same time, Cao Cao has first-class commanders and super-class generals. Hai
Last year's bumper harvest in the west alleviated the disaster in Runan, and Xu Du did not suffer too much loss. In the warehouse, the baggage and grain were piled up like mountains, and Cao Cao no longer had the worry of grain and grass in history.
The Battle of Guandu is waiting for an opportunity.
An opportunity for Cao Cao to win a great victory...
But before that, there must be a long-term stalemate.
Cao Peng couldn't help much, and it was impossible for Cao Peng to give him any ideas.
With Guo Jia and the others here, how could Mr. Cao lack strategies? As for Wuchao... Cao Peng also thought about reminding Mr. Cao. But after thinking about it, he stopped the idea. God knows Yuan Shao
After experiencing so many setbacks, would it be possible to store grain and grass in Wuchao like in history? Even if it was stored in Wuchao, if Mr. Cao asked him, how did he know... Cao Peng probably wouldn't be able to answer.
And wait patiently!
Waiting for Xu You to abandon the darkness and turn to the light...
Outside the window, it started to rain lightly.
Cao Peng stood in the fighting room and practiced the half-step collapse fist.
He asked the jailer to give him a pair of wooden shackles, and then chained his legs and feet.
It is said that Guo Yunshen, the historical Chinese martial arts master and the founder of Banbu Bengquan, created Banbu Bengquan under such conditions.
After practicing hard in the Seven Changes of ***, Cao Peng has vaguely mastered the 'momentum' contained in the Seven Changes of ***.
Step, punch, and step back; step, punch, and step back...
Feeling the strength flowing through the body, becoming familiar with the wonderful changes brought about by the beating of each muscle. During this kind of practice, Cao Peng gradually entered a strange state. Every movement was done unconsciously.
After finishing, push hard, the fascia grows, and the joints in the whole body make a popping air explosion sound when punching, and the breathing is almost non-existent, and from time to time, a tiger's roar comes from the mouth.
Xia Houlan is teaching the eight opening postures of Fei Qi Bajiquan.
Suddenly, a roaring sound almost like a beast was heard inside the cell.
He stopped quickly and turned to look at Cao Peng.
The small steps and punches... produced a surge of air. The fierceness of the half-step fist, coupled with the tenacity of the seventh transformation of the body, actually made Cao Peng look like a head.
The tigers coming down the mountain exuded a terrifying aura all over their bodies.
Xia Houlan's eyes lit up, and after a moment he sighed softly.
"Sima, Master, what are you doing..."
"Young Master is understanding!"
"Understand what?"
"Position!"
For the flying spirits, what is ‘potential’? We don’t know much about it.
Most of what they master are ordinary fighting techniques, but in terms of martial arts, they are just laymen now.
This martial art has nothing to do with how many people kill people. Many times, it relies on a kind of understanding.
Cao Peng first understood the mystery of "power" on the Xiaotan battlefield. After returning to Xudu, after experiencing the excitement of the ambush incident, Cao Peng seemed to have entered a very calm state. Although he was locked up in prison, he
It also gave him an environment to slowly sort out and explore.
Since his birth, Cao Peng has experienced countless battles.
He practiced with Lu Bu, tried his moves with Dian Wei, and even participated in life and death battles.
He recalled and refined everything he had experienced in the past.
Although he still failed to build up his "power" and reach the level of a super-class military commander, Cao Peng was confident that if he fought Gan Ning again, he would at least be able to perform ten moves and twenty moves under Gan Ning. These ten moves
The twenty moves were made under the premise that Gan Ning used all his strength.
Cao Peng, overwhelmed by Bengquan again and again, his clothes were soaked with sweat.
The roar of the tiger in the cell lasted for nearly an hour and finally stopped.
Xia Houlan stepped forward and handed over a dry towel. Cao Peng took it and wiped the sweat from his face. He felt refreshed and energetic.
"Captain Cao, someone is here to see you!"
Outside the cell, the jailer suddenly shouted loudly.
Cao Peng was startled and asked: "Who!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a one-armed young man, dressed in a green shirt, carrying a food box in his hand, and came to the door of the cell under the guidance of the jailer.
"Brother-in-law?"
Cao Peng couldn't help being shocked when he saw the young man.
Deng Ji had previously stayed under the command of Xu Jiu in Xuzhou as a special commander. Cao Peng could predict that Deng Ji would return to Xudu sooner or later...
However, he did not expect that Deng Ji would come back at this time.
Xia Houlan and others were very wise and walked out of the cell and entered another room.
Deng Ji thanked the jailer and walked into the cell. He smiled at Cao Peng and put down the food box in his hand, "Ah Fu, your imprisonment has made everyone in the family anxious. Now I see you.
With a look like this, he must not have suffered anything... How about staying here?"
"Brother-in-law, how can such a place be called a good word?"
As he spoke, Cao Peng took two steps forward and gave Deng Ji a warm bear hug.
"Brother-in-law, when did you come back?"
"It's noon today!"
"Has everything in Xuzhou been resolved?"
"Well, it's been solved."
Deng Ji seemed to be more calm than before.
His thin cheeks, thin body, and short beard under his chin exude a heroic spirit.
He looked at Cao Peng quietly, and after a while, he suddenly stretched out his one arm and hugged Cao Peng tightly in his arms, "Ah Fu, I've made you feel wronged."
When Deng Ji returned to Xudu this time, he was ordered to escort 30,000 shi of grain and grass.
Even though Xu Duku's mansion had food in stock, it was still quite stressful to supply the consumption of tens of thousands of troops.
Therefore, when the Donghai County Incident was overthrown, Liu Bei fled in embarrassment, and the situation in Xuzhou gradually stabilized, Xu Zhuan ordered Deng Ji to escort the grain and grass back to Xudu. Later, Xuzhou would send another 100,000 stones of grain and grass to ensure
The Battle of Guandu went smoothly. After Deng Ji returned to Xudu, he learned that something big had happened at home. First, his wife narrowly escaped death, and then Cao Peng was imprisoned for revenge.
If Deng Ji had any selfishness before, after hearing the news, his selfishness suddenly disappeared.
"If you hadn't been at home, your sister would have almost..."
"Hey, brother-in-law, I see what you said, my sister is your wife and also my sister.
We are a family, how can I watch those people shitting on our head? It’s a pity that damn Fujun left.”
Deng Ji's eyes suddenly turned red!
After the two sat down in the cell, they talked to each other about their parting feelings.
Cao Peng asked: "Brother-in-law, where is Liu Bei now?"
When Liu Bei was mentioned, Deng Ji suddenly looked ashamed.
"Alas, it's hard to describe in one sentence. After General Xiahou captured Donghai County, Liu Bei defeated Pengcheng Kingdom.
I was ordered to pursue this beast with General Zhu Ling, but I did not expect this beast to be cunning and full of tricks. I lost hundreds of troops and killed Liu Bei. Instead of catching Liu Bei, he escaped across the Huai River... I originally wanted to continue the pursuit, but I was afraid of being hit.
He came up with a trick. Now, he has fled to Huainan."
Got run away by this guy again!
When Cao Peng heard this, he couldn't help but frown.
However, he did not mean to blame Deng Ji, because he knew very well that Liu Bei's ability to escape was probably even better than that of his ancestor Liu Bang. I think back then, Cao Cao and his five-pronged army surrounded Liu Bei, but he was killed by him.
A bloody road to escape to Qingzhou.
With Deng Ji's ability, it is indeed difficult to deal with Liu Bei.
That guy is definitely a cunning and cunning person.
But, where will Liu Bei go when he escapes?
Will he flee to Jingzhou and join Liu Biao? Liu Biao is now dealing with Sun Quan, so he may not take Liu Bei in... Or is he hiding and waiting for an opportunity? Cao Peng began to have a headache. The plot of the Three Kingdoms in his memory gradually faded over time.
As time goes by, it becomes increasingly blurry.
The only thing Cao Peng can be sure of is that Liu Bei will eventually defect to Liu Biao.
"Brother-in-law, are you okay at home?"
"Everything is fine... Although your sister can't get out of bed and walk, she can already sit up. Yueying has been taking care of her and your sister, so there is no need to worry. It's just that she misses you very much and has said she wants to see you several times.
, but was stopped by my father, so I often shed tears."
Cao Peng heard this and fell silent!
"Brother-in-law, you go back and tell grandma so that she doesn't feel sad.
I will definitely be able to get out in half a year at the latest... Mr. Cao’s imprisonment of me is actually a kind of protection. Please don’t worry about me.”
Deng Ji nodded slightly.
"There is one more thing I need to discuss with you."
"kindness?"
Deng Ji poured a glass of wine for Cao Peng and said softly: "This matter is related to the development of Haixi. When I come back, Zishan specially asked me to ask you for advice."
"oh?"
When Cao Peng heard this, he couldn't help but look puzzled.
