Chapter 473 Cao Zhishang (please recommend, please vote!)
When facing Cao Peng, Jiang Ji seemed a little nervous.
In other words, the aura of overlord has always been a very inexplicable, even mysterious existence.
You can say he does, or you can say he doesn't.
For a person who lives at the bottom and cannot even guarantee food and clothing, the domineering spirit is basically a legend. Just imagine, where does the spirit of a person who has no food in his stomach come from? And a person who has been in a high position for a long time or is famous
People, inadvertently, will have a suffocating aura, that is, the aura of overlord...
Cao Peng fought in front of Cao Cao and was trembling with fear.
But Jiang Jiong felt even more nervous in front of Cao Peng than when Cao Peng faced Cao Cao.
Seeing that he was at a loss and was stammering and unable to form sentences, Cao Peng couldn't help but laugh.
"Mingming, you and I are just chatting, there's no need to be so formal."
He did not immediately bring the topic to Zhao Ang, but first talked about Jiang Jiong's family and his precious son.
Cao Peng had already seen the two-year-old Jiang Wei.
The one is carved from pink and jade, extremely beautiful, like a porcelain doll.
However, Cao Peng was still not sure whether this Jiang Wei was the other Jiang Wei. But it seemed that this Jiang Wei was a smart boy.
After chatting about family for a while, Jiang Ji felt much more relaxed.
"I heard that you and Zhao Ang know each other?"
Jiang Ji was startled and shook his head, "I have never met Zhao Ang, but Mrs. Wang treats me very well.
At first, Mrs. Wang wanted to recommend me to Governor Yang, but I was unwilling, so I chose Wuwei County."
"Do you know Zhao Ang?"
"Mr. Zhao..." Jiang Ji seemed to be energetic and started talking non-stop.
From the words, Cao Peng could tell that Zhao Ang was indeed a talented master. Moreover, he had a good wife, Wang Yi. Wang Yi was a very decent person, well-educated, and very talented.
.
Jiang Jiong said: "I heard from Ying'er that Mr. Zhao must discuss with Auntie any major issues."
If you want to invite Zhao Ang out of the mountain, Wang Yi is the key!
Cao Peng thought for a moment and then made up his mind.
Logically speaking, for something like this, he should go and ask for it personally.
However, Cao Peng really couldn't get out now. He thought for a while, took out a book from the desk, and then said in a deep voice: "I have something important, I hope you can do it for me. Please invite Mr. Zhao and his family,
Come to Guzang as a guest.
When the time comes, you will hand over this book to Mr. Zhao...
I just said that I haven’t finished this book yet and I would like to ask Mr. Zhao to evaluate it. Of course, if he is not willing, then forget it!”
After speaking, Cao Peng asked Cai Di to fetch some books and wrap them together.
"These books are with Mrs. Wang.
Just say that Mr. Cai is working hard to collect books from Mr. Bo, and it is really hard. I hope she can come and help Mr. Cai."
Cao Peng felt from Jiang Jiong's words that Wang Yi was also a woman who attached great importance to learning.
With the brand name Cai Yan, it would be easy to impress Mrs. Wang...
"Whether it works or not, you just have to bring the words."
"The general will obey your orders!"
Jiang Ji looked very excited and agreed without saying a word.
This was the first time he had received a mission after surrendering to Cao Peng, and Cao Peng personally ordered it.
Therefore, Jiang Ji also attaches great importance to it. He knows that if he does it properly, he will get more attention.
So Jiang Ji said goodbye and left. After going home and making preparations, he set off for Tianshui that night.
After Cao Peng sent Jiang Ji away, he felt a little tired.
Throughout the whole day, they discussed and discussed, and all kinds of things were entangled and messy, which made him feel dizzy. So he blew out the oil lamp, turned around and returned to the bedroom, and plunged into it.
On that wooden couch.
I'm used to sleeping on the big carved lacquer bed at home, but I'm really not used to sleeping on this wooden couch again.
Thinking about it, I was afraid that I would not be able to leave Wuwei County for a while. If I couldn't do it, I asked someone to bring Buluan and Guo Huan over. There was no warm bed around me, and no caring person to take care of me. I felt a little empty, a little lonely, and a little lonely.
chilly……

This night, Cao Peng didn't sleep very well.
After midnight, he suddenly heard someone calling softly outside the door.
Sitting up quickly, Cao Peng said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"
"Sir, Jizhou battle report!"
Jizhou battle report?
I'm afraid there are results over there in Yecheng.
He took a deep breath, rubbed his face vigorously, then put on his clothes and stood up, taking a wet towel and wiping his face.
Well, I feel much more awake!
Cao Peng opened the door and saw Pang De standing at the door.
"Ling Ming, just let the handymen do this kind of thing from now on."
"Young master, you are in danger in Hexi, how can you relax your virtue? Someone from Xudu came, saying that he has something important and needs to report to the general."
"bring it here."
Cao Peng nodded and went to the study.
Pang De hurriedly sent the order and then waited outside the study.
After a while, I saw a person, dusty and dusty, following Ya Bing into the study, and he knelt on the ground.
"Huanping?"
Then the light in the room turned on, and Cao Peng recognized the person's identity at a glance.
That person is not a stranger. He had met Cao Peng several times when he was in Xudu. His name was Huan Ping. He was not well-known and was not a high-ranking official. But he had another identity, that is Mrs. Huan.
Clan nephew.
It's a long way from Huanping, coming from Xudu, something important must have happened.
Otherwise, Mrs. Huan would not be able to send him here.
"Sir, your whereabouts are really hard to find."
"What's wrong?"
"A big event happened in Xudu, and my aunt ordered me to come and report the news. I rushed from Xudu to Hexi, but I was told that you were already in Guzang."
Cao Peng smiled and waved his hand gently, "This is also a helpless move... By the way, what happened that made Madam so anxious to send you here?"
"Second Young Master, Second Young Master, he is dead!"
Cao Peng didn't react for a moment and asked in surprise: "Which second young master?"
"It's Zihuan. Mr. Zihuan is dead!"
There was a buzzing sound in his head. Cao Peng felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His eyes widened and he did not react for a long time.
"What did you say?"
"Fifteen days ago, the second young master was attacked by Karasuma cavalry in Zhongqiu, and the entire army was wiped out. The second young master was killed by the Karasuma people!"
"How can it be!"
Cao Peng stood up suddenly.
"How could the Karasuma people appear in Zhongqiu, and how could the prince run to Zhongqiu?"
Huan Ping drank some water and calmed down his emotions.
"Originally, the second young master was ordered to garrison in Wulu City. But because Gao Gan attacked Hedong, the lord decided to let Zhang Yan go down the mountain early. The Black Mountain bandits numbered a million people, and there were more than 100,000 soldiers. The lord wanted to let Heishan
After the army reorganized in Zhongqiu, they entered Hedong to participate in the war. The prince was ordered to go to Zhongqiu to reorganize the army... I didn't expect the Karasuma people to suddenly appear... It was not Jizhou Karasuma, but Liaodong Karasuma Tuqi. The Karasuma people appeared too suddenly.
, so that the second young master met with misfortune."
Cao Peng was called the Crown Prince of Cao Pi.
But Huanping called Cao Pi the second son, which also showed Mrs. Huan's attitude.
When Cao Peng heard this, he took a deep breath.
Cao Pi, dead?
I felt an inexplicable throbbing in my heart... Yes, it was a throbbing! When Cao Pi was alive, Cao Peng had always been a little scrupulous. After all, he was the famous Emperor Wen of Wei. But now that Cao Pi was dead, he felt fear.
History is developing in an unknown direction.
The original Three Kingdoms are changing, and his control over the context of this era is becoming weaker and weaker.
Without Cao Pi, what would the Three Kingdoms be like?
History, the definition of the time of the Three Kingdoms, started when Cao Pi ascended the throne and usurped the throne after Cao Cao's death. But now, Cao Pi is dead, what will the future look like? Cao Peng really can't tell.
…
Cao Pi is a symbol of the Three Kingdoms.
When this logo disappears, who will replace it?
"Madam, do you have any orders?"
Cao Peng sat blankly for a long time, and finally forced himself to calm down.
Huan Ping said: "Madam wants to ask the general for advice, what should we do next?"
Mrs. Huan had always wanted to support Cao Chong, and Cao Peng could guess her thoughts. Cao Peng also had high hopes for Cao Chong. When Cao Chong came in front of him, he paid homage to him and called him "
From the moment he became 'Mr.
There are also many rumors.
Cao Pi's hand?
Hard to say!
From the current point of view, Cao Pi does not seem to be so ruthless.
But in a few years, Cao Peng didn't dare to say what Cao Pi would become. This was just a possibility... But what would happen if Cao Pi died? Cao Peng didn't dare to say! However, he felt that Cao Chong would be even better.
Danger.
The danger no longer came from Cao Pi, but from Mrs. Bian who lost her beloved son.
Mrs. Bian’s three sons, Cao Pi, Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi. Among them, Mrs. Bian devoted too much effort to Cao Pi...
Cao Zhang is good at martial arts and has a flamboyant personality.
Cao Zhi was good at literature, but he was aloof and arrogant.
To be honest, neither of these two are good heirs. But once Cao Pi dies, Mrs. Bian will inevitably choose one of these two to replace Cao Pi. Cao Chong gradually grows up and becomes more and more outstanding. This will make Bian
Madam, I feel an inexplicable pressure. Thinking from her perspective, if I were Madam Bian, I would never allow Cao Chong to live!
Thinking of this, Cao Peng was so excited that he shivered.
If it cannot be dealt with as soon as possible, the Cao family may very well make the same mistake as Yuan Shao.
This is not to say that Cao Cao will be like Yuan Shao, but this battle to establish a direct line will become more cruel...
Although Mrs. Huan was loved by Cao Cao, she still seemed a little thin compared to Mrs. Bian's strong and powerful character.
She knew this herself, so she tried her best to win over Cao Peng.
Huan Ping remained silent at this time, even breathing was forcibly suppressed.
This is the time to decide the future fate of the Huan family. Huan Ping has been in Xudu for a long time, and he knows very well how much Mrs. Huan values Cao Peng.
call……
Cao Peng let out a sigh of relief.
He stood up, walked slowly to the door, opened the door, walked to the porch, and stared at the lilacs in the courtyard with his hands behind his hands.
As long as he says a word now, he will be completely tied to Mrs. Huan's chariot.
However, in the eyes of many people, he may have long been a member of Mrs. Huan's family. Thinking of this, Cao Peng couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself! Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Where there are rivers and lakes, there are fights... down to the common people.
From the common people to the emperors and generals, the struggle for interests has never ceased since ancient times...
"Ling Ming!"
"Here!"
"No one is allowed to approach within thirty steps."
Pound immediately understood that something big had happened.
Without saying a word, he immediately ran down. Immediately after, he heard a series of passwords, and the white camel soldiers who were hiding in the dark and on guard appeared instantly. They formed a sentry every ten steps to firmly protect the study.
…
Huan Ping was also extremely nervous and looked at Cao Peng without saying a word.
Cao Peng slowly turned around and returned to the house.
It was impossible for him to talk about this kind of thing with anyone.
"Huan Ping, two things."
"Please give me your instructions, Master."
"First, tell my wife, don't act rashly.
The prince is here, and the Lord is heartbroken. Any action at this time may cause the Lord's resentment or even hostility. Not only must we not act rashly, but we must also try our best to appease Mrs. Bian. In name, we must recognize the status of the prince."
Cao Peng, looked towards Huan Ping.
Huan Ping quickly stood up, leaned over and replied, "Huan Ping has written it down."
"The second thing is equally important, even more important than the first thing."
Cao Peng rubbed his temples, closed his eyes, and whispered: "From now on, Cang Shu's daily life must be taken care of by a dedicated person. Whoever Cang Shu drinks, the food he eats, including the medicine he needs to take when he is sick, must go through it."
To check, it is best to find someone to try it first. Only after everything is fine can you let Cangshu use it. In addition, you should also pay attention to the safety of Cangshu.
It is best to let caring people take charge of the security around him...
If Madam can trust me, I can recommend candidates. When you go back, I will ask Wang Shuang to go back with you.
In short, from now on, anything that happens around Cang Shu cannot be ignored."
Cao Peng opened his eyes, stared at Huan Ping and said, "Do you understand?"
"clear."
"Also, the third thing..."
Cao Peng looked at Huanping and suddenly sighed in his heart.
I've become bad!
Becoming indifferent, becoming cruel, becoming treating human life as nothing...
"Tell me, madam, what happened today must not come out of my mouth and into your ears, and no third person can know it."
Huan Ping said quickly: "I've written it down."
"Well, you should take a rest first, and I'll ask someone to bring you food.
Before dawn, I will send Wang Shuang to follow you back to Xudu to tell Madam what I said today as soon as possible."
"clear!"
Cao Peng looked at Huan Ping and smiled gently.
He walked out of the study and ordered Pound to prepare meals.
At the same time, someone summoned Wang Shuang and gave him such and such instructions for a long time.
Wang Shuang was not willing to return to Xudu, but since Cao Peng gave the order and was resolute, he also knew that the matter was serious.
So Wang Shuang took the order and went down to prepare.
Cao Peng stood on the porch, tapping the railing with his fingers.
Cao Pi's death will cause many derivative changes. Cao Peng is not too sure what the future will look like.
But there is one thing he can clearly feel!
I'm afraid he won't be able to stay in the northwest for too long...
