540 Every family has a hard-to-read scripture (2/2)
Chapter 540 Every family has sutras that are difficult to recite (2/2)
Guo Jia was shocked, jumped out quickly, and said sternly: "Xiao Yixiu is going to talk nonsense, please tell me slowly, what happened?"
Cao Peng is so bold!
Your brother is still a prisoner and is being punished. How can you be so arrogant?
Guo Jia didn't believe that Cao Peng would really kill Cao Zhi, but when Guo Yi said it, he was very frightened. He looked at Cao Cao secretly, and when he saw that Cao Cao's face was as dark as water, he was secretly afraid. After all, no matter who listens,
Even if someone wants to kill his son, he won't be too happy. Even if that person is also favored and trusted by Cao Cao, after all, he is still as close as someone who is not his own flesh and blood.
Maybe it was because he saw Guo Jia that Guo Yi gradually calmed down.
He stammered and told the story to Guo Jia and others. After Guo Jia finished speaking, Cao Cao and others couldn't help but let out a long breath at the same time.
It turns out he wasn't killing someone, he was getting angry.
But everything is fine, why did Cao Peng get angry?
Also, why did Cao Zhi suddenly visit Cao Peng?
Cao Cao couldn't help but feel doubtful. After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and said, "Feng Xiao, Wen Ruo, you two go over and see what's going on. Jun Ming!"
"Here!"
Dian Wei strode forward, stepped in and saluted.
Just now, he was shocked when he heard the news.
Now that I heard Cao Cao's call, I naturally didn't dare to be hesitant in the slightest.
"If Youxue is just angry, Zijian and the others must have left. You bring someone with you immediately and bring him back to me. I want to question him personally."
Dian Wei agreed and left in a hurry.
Cao Cao patted his forehead lightly and glanced at Cao Chong who was standing at the foot of the steps.
"Cangshu, you go back first, you are not allowed to go out today."
"I will obey my father's orders."
Cao Chong also left...
But Cao Cao couldn't help but smile bitterly, and turned to look at Dong Zhao, "I originally planned to let Youxue contact the Lu Han Kingdom in private. When the Lu Han Kingdom officially surrendered, I would have an excuse to pardon him. I can't think of this child...
...It seems that it is impossible to hide it! Since he can't hide it, I plan to let him stand up. He is secretive and has a petty attitude. Let him be the translator and cooperate with Ziyang to take responsibility.
Receive Lu's Han Kingdom. In this way, it will be more convenient for him to contact Lu's Han Kingdom. What do Gongren think?"
For example, Lü's decision to invest overseas in the Han Dynasty was a diplomatic matter.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a person responsible for such things, and the official title was Dahonglu. As early as the Qin Dynasty, there was a similar position, called Dianke, who was responsible for contact with foreign countries. By the time of Emperor Wu, it was changed to Dahonglu,
At first, it was just for praising loudly, without much power. But later, this Dahonglu gradually evolved into being responsible for diplomatic affairs, and then it became an important position in the court.
Under Dahong, there are three ministers, including a traveler, an interpreter, and Biehuo.
Da Honglu's rank was two thousand stones, while the three ministers under his command had the rank of two thousand stones.
Letting Cao Peng serve as the Translator Cheng was a last resort and a temporary appointment. Today's Dahonglu has not been established. However, Liu Ye has always been in charge of external affairs. Liu Ye has a good relationship with Cao Ji, so he let Cao Peng serve as his
It won't be too much trouble.
It's just that Cao Cao was a little angry, not only with Cao Peng but also with Cao Zhi.
According to his plan, the Han Kingdom of the Lu family came. After he had Cao Peng secretly contact the Han State of the Lu family, he officially announced that Cao Peng would be pardoned in the name of the Han State of the Lu family. After all, he came from overseas to invest, which was similar to opening up.
The achievement of expanding the territory was a huge achievement for the imperial court. At that time, it was logical to pardon Cao Peng. Even if someone in the court objected, Cao Cao had enough reasons to refute.
After Cao Peng was pardoned, he took advantage of the chaos in Nanyang and appointed him as the governor of Nanyang County.
Cao Cao had planned everything. But he didn't expect such a change to happen suddenly. If Guo Yi hadn't rushed to report the news in a panic, Cao Cao would have had a way to make up for it. But now... Cao Cao also knows about this matter.
It's absolutely impossible to suppress it.
Dong Zhao couldn't help but laugh, "Since my lord is determined, don't worry about him.
The Han Kingdom of the Lu family is surrounded by people on both sides. Even if Youxue comes out now, who can stop it? If the Han state of the Lu family regrets because of this, who will bear the responsibility. In my opinion, it is better to let Youxue stand up.
This can show our sincerity and make the Han Kingdom of the Lu family surrender. As for those with ulterior motives, they will definitely stop it. Even if the Han Kingdom of the Lu family surrenders in the future, they will prevent the lord from pardoning Youxue. The result is the same, so why bother, lord?
Worrying too much? If there really is such a blind person...hehe, my lord, don't bother with it."
Cao Cao, silently!
Dong Zhao's meaning is very clear.
Your boss now holds a knife in his hand and is in power, why do you care what others say?
Regardless of whether the Lu family surrenders to the Han Dynasty or not, there will always be objections. If you want to pardon Cao Peng, don’t Xu Du, including the one in the imperial city, know? Since everyone knows it well, why bother to hide it. I am
I want to pardon Cao Peng, who can stop me?
Speaking of which, Cao Cao's approach was a bit like setting up a memorial arch.
He wanted to forgive, but he was afraid of being blamed, so he came up with such an idea...
But the problem is, there are many people who dislike you and dislike Cao Peng. No matter what you do, you won't end up well, so why should you care!
As long as you hold the knife in your hand and take charge of the court affairs, let them do whatever they say.
If you are really impatient, find an excuse to kill them and see who dares to jump out and make irresponsible remarks again.
Dong Zhao had wanted to persuade Cao Cao for a long time, but he couldn't find the right opportunity. In his opinion, there was no need for Cao Cao to have so many worries. Just do whatever you want. As long as it can bring benefits to the country, why bother about those useless things?
People’s accusations and questioning?
Cao Cao also felt the same way.
Since he took control of the court, obeyed the emperor's orders, and moved the capital to Xu County, have there been less accusations?
If you lack food and clothing, you will be accused of being incompetent; if you practice farming, you will be accused of being arrogant and domineering; if you have a good harvest, you will be scolded; if you encounter a famine, you will be accused of warning from heaven; if you go out to fight, you will be accused of militarism; if you stay in Xudu, you will be accused of being arrogant and domineering.
It is said that he sticks to the political agenda and does not want to make progress.
Anyway, no matter what he does, someone will jump out and scream.
After going back and forth, Cao Cao got really used to it!
You are clamoring for what I should do or what I should do... It's just that this time, I don't know what happened, but I actually came up with such a trick.
I just want to pardon Cao Peng. If anyone dares to stop me, I will kill his whole family.
When I was young, I was chivalrous and ridiculous.
Cao Cao has never done anything, so how can he really care about what others say.
After hearing Dong Zhao's words, Cao Cao suddenly became enlightened and couldn't help laughing, "What Gongren said is absolutely true, I just want to use Ah Fu.
If anyone blocks me, let him conquer Liangzhou for me.
Otherwise, why should I wait for him to make noise? Well, let’s do it like this. Gongren, you go to Yang Xi immediately and ask him to inform Zi Yang, and ask Cao Peng to be the translator and Cheng, and accompany him to receive the Lu family’s Han envoys.
.If anyone comes to him to object, let him come to me to argue."
There was a hint of solemnity flashing through those detailed eyes.
It seems that my sword has not been stained with blood for a long time. If anyone is ignorant and dares to sabotage my affairs, then don't blame me for being ruthless.

About an hour later, Guo Jia and Xun Yu returned to Sikong Mansion.
When they arrived at Sikong Mansion, Dian Wei had already brought Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu back, and they were kneeling in the hall, as silent as a cicada.
Mrs. Bian and others also came, but no one spoke.
Cao Zhang, with a solemn expression, holding a horizontal sword in his hand, stared coldly at Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu; Cao Chong had his hands folded in his sleeves, said nothing, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. As for Cao Zheng, Cao Xiong and others
All the heirs also stayed in a group and did not dare to speak.
Cao Cao's eldest daughter Cao Xian, second daughter Cao Jie, and third daughter Cao Hua also came.
"what happened?"
Guo Jia couldn't help but asked Dian Wei softly.
Dian Wei smiled bitterly and said: "There was another commotion just now, which annoyed my lord."
"who?"
Dian Wei glanced at the expressionless Mrs. Huan and Mrs. Bian, and then secretly pointed at Cao Zhang.
"Just now, Ziwen almost drew his sword and wanted to kill Zijian. Fortunately, Mrs. Bian stopped him and prevented a bigger incident from happening.
Mrs. Huan said that Youxue was too arrogant and domineering and should be severely punished.
However, Mrs. Bian said that Zijian was too frivolous and came to ask for a concubine, which was really ridiculous. No wonder Ah Fu got angry..."
When Dian Wei said this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"I can't understand, I really can't understand. Mrs. Huan spoke for Zijian, while Mrs. Bian interceded for Ah Fu. The two ladies were fighting openly and secretly, and it was almost brought to the table, which made the lord very angry. They arrested the whole family.
, don’t say anything, just stay here..."
Hearing this, Guo Jia couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Huan and Mrs. Bian.
The little lady's tolerance is still a bit small.
He could guess why Mrs. Huan wanted to speak for Cao Zhi. It was not that she wanted to help Cao Zhi, but that she wanted to push Cao Zhi into the fire pit...
After Guo Jia returned home, he asked about the cause of the incident.
Cao Peng had not calmed down yet, so it was Mrs. Guo who told the story exactly.
This incident was not a big deal at first. At least in Guo Jia's eyes, Cao Peng made a fuss out of a molehill...Cao Zhi came to ask him for a concubine. It was not necessarily to humiliate Cao Peng, but it was a fashion of this era.
Literati and elegant scholars exchanged beautiful concubines for elegance, and sometimes it even became a good talk. For example, what about the beauty of adults... Cao Cao did this kind of thing in history.
He once married Lai Ying'er, a famous singer and dancer in Xudu, as his concubine. Later, Ying'er had an affair with Wang Tu, Cao Cao's bodyguard. When Cao Cao heard about it, instead of killing Lai Ying'er, he wanted to give Lai Ying'er to Wang Tu.
Of course, Ying'er died later, which made Cao Cao very heartbroken.
However, this also shows that in the upper class society, gifting beautiful concubines is a very common thing.
Well……
Cao Cao has not married Ying'er yet, but it is said that he is very interested in it; and the guard Wang Tu who cuckolded Cao Cao in the story has been killed by Cao Cao. I don't know if this cuckold will still be pinned on Cao Cao's head.
.But this is not the key point. The key point is that this matter was originally nothing. Cao Zhi was certainly wrong, but it was not a big mistake. Although Cao Peng made a fuss, he had such a reaction because he loved his concubine. If it were normal, or
For other people, the most they can do is to be talked about.
But this happened to Cao Peng and Cao Zhi...
Mrs. Guo tried her best to explain the story from a fair perspective. But she was a woman and was extremely disgusted with this kind of exchange of concubines. So she unknowingly deviated from her position, and Cao Zhi became frivolous.
They asked Cao Peng for Zhen Mi.
Mrs. Huan interceded for Cao Zhi, but she actually wanted to put Cao Zhi to death.
But Mrs. Bian is not a vegetarian, she even resolves it with fights and fights... At this time, engaging in this kind of internal fighting is purely to cause trouble for Cao Cao. Therefore, Guo Jia felt that Mrs. Huan was too tolerant, far inferior to Bian.
Madam. As for Cao Zhang... Guo Jia took a look at the shaggy yellow beard and nodded slightly. This child has a strong temperament and knows how to respect his teachers, so he is a sweet-tempered person.
If he is sincere, it is indeed good.
And Cao Chong's silence also showed that he was extraordinary.
He used silence to express his views. The fourth brother had something wrong, but Cao Peng seemed to be a little impulsive. On one side was his brother, and on the other was Cao Peng, who had enlightened him. No matter which side he stood at this time,
All may only make things more complicated.
So, he was silent!
But this silence added a lot of points to him.
Guo Jia and Xun Yu looked at each other and both couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Stepping into the flower hall, he saw Cao Cao sitting on the imperial chair, tapping his forehead gently.
Cao Cao suffered from migraines, which would become serious especially when he was emotional.
Seeing Guo Jia and Xun Yu come in, he waved for them to sit down, "What is going on?"
Although he heard what Cao Zhi said once, after all, it was just one person's words and would be biased. Therefore, he asked Guo Jia and Xun Yu to go back and inquire.
Guo Jia followed Mrs. Guo's statement and recounted what happened.
He was very fair, but Mrs. Guo's words already had this bias, so Guo Jia and Xun Yu's statements naturally had a bias.
"Zijian was indeed presumptuous in this matter."
Cao Cao suddenly said angrily: "Just being presumptuous? In my opinion, he is just a frivolous person!"
"Lord, calm down."
Cao Cao closed his eyes and let out a long breath.
"Compared to Zi Huan, Zijian was much more talented and talented. However, when Zi Huan was twelve years old, he joined me in the battle against Wancheng. When I was defeated, he was still calm and composed, recruited the remaining soldiers and escaped; Zijian,
But without these experiences, he would be with those frivolous scoundrels all day long, and it would be difficult to achieve success after all. Unfortunately, Ziwen was too reckless and his temper was too violent. Although he has started studying now, it is difficult to change his temper for a while; Cang Shu
He is smart, not inferior to Zijian, and he is calm in situations, but there is a hint of meanness and unkindness."
Cao Cao rarely discussed family matters in front of his officials.
Now that this topic suddenly came up, Guo Jia and Xun Yu were shocked.
"Lord..."
Cao Cao sat up straight, waved his hands and said, "This matter ends here.
Early tomorrow morning, I will send someone to send Zijian to Chang'an to study, and let Ziwen go to Shenhu Pavilion to practice with Wenyuan; as for Cangshu, I originally thought that he would be allowed to stay at home and follow his temper without restricting his
Growing up. But now it seems that it is biased... Letting him stay in Xudu may not be a good thing. At his age, he should stay in school and study instead of working behind closed doors at home.
Wen Ruo, I have one thing to bother you with. Please tell someone to ask Yuan Chang to let Cang Shu study anonymously at Yingchuan Academy.
As an ordinary student, he should not be given any care... I have been neglecting family affairs in the past two years, but it seems I have to ask."
After Cao Cao finished speaking, he stood up and faced Xun Yu, putting his hands together and bowing.
