Chapter 708 Why not lock Da Qiao deeply? (Eight thousand words, ask the moon
Dinner was simple and sumptuous.
It’s a rare family reunion in the Cao Mansion, and everyone except Deng Ji is here!
Although there are still some shortcomings, it is enough for people to be happy that the family can reunite and spend the new year together.[]
Same with Cao Peng!
It has been three years since he took office as the governor of Nanyang County.
For the past three years, he has spent every New Year alone. Even last year, when he was appointed as Tingwei, he left Xudu for various reasons and was unable to reunite with his family. It is probably the first time in six or seven years that things are so tidy today.
Once, Cao Ji prepared a large copper hot pot and freshly slaughtered lamb sent from Bingzhou. The fat and lean meat slices were cut very thin. Rinse them in boiling water and dip them in the sauce.
Eating it is the best delicacy when the world is freezing.
Mrs. Zhang also prepared Jiangdong rice wine for drinking.
I heated the wine and it was very warm and comfortable. Cao Peng and Cao Ji were sitting at the same table, and the women were sitting in the back room. However, there were really few men in the Cao family! The second generation disciples, except for Deng Ai, were almost all children.
It was impossible to sit down at the table. As a result, there were only a few lonely people at the huge dining table.
In addition to Cao Ji and his son, there were also Deng Ai, Sun Shao and Xu Gai.
Cai Di stayed in Xudu and failed to return.
And Jiang Wei and Fu Qian are still young. Jiang Wei is only seven years old now. He has lived in Xingyang since he was a child and has become one with the Cao family. Fu Qian is even more like this. He is only four years old and is not even very sensible. This also makes the chairman of the Cao family,
It seemed a bit deserted. Cao Peng saw that it was too deserted, so he ran to call Pang Tong, Fa Zheng, Ma Su, Zhao Yun, Shamoke and Wang Shuang over. As for their female relatives, they went into the back compartment to eat...
Pang Tong was already married, married to the daughter of the Kuai family in Jingzhou, and gave birth to a son named Pang Hong, who was only two years old.
He couldn't go back to Jingzhou to celebrate the New Year, so he naturally stayed with Cao Peng.
Previously, after Pang Tong resigned as the governor of Hexi, he sent his wife and children to Xingyang, intending to let the children grow up and study at Fuxishan Academy. But this time, Pang Tong's wife and children also came to Yecheng. For Pang Tong,
, is naturally a happy event. Fa Zheng got married a few months ago, and he married the daughter of a wealthy local family in Xi County. She is not very beautiful, but she is dignified, has an excellent temperament, and a very gentle temperament. She is a housekeeper.
Good girl Shamoko... I guess it will be difficult to get married in a while. He is ugly, three points better than Pang Tong, and he is a barbarian, so he needs an opportunity.
This group of people all lived in Cao Mansion. When Cao Peng greeted them, the atmosphere suddenly became warm.
Everyone exchanged cups and cups together, and it wasn't until midnight that they finally returned home happily.
Cao Peng didn't drink too much, just a small drink. Cao Ji was really drunk and was sent to the bedroom to rest early.
Women, you are not sleepy yet.
So they gathered together and whispered.
The children were already tired. The older ones like Cao Yang, Cao Yun, and Cao Rui also fell asleep because they had to get up early to practice. Cao Peng put on his clothes and walked in the palace. The bright moon was bright and shining with silver.
The light made the Marquis Mansion seem to be covered with a thin layer of white frost. In the blink of an eye, thirteen years have passed...
I was reborn in the Three Kingdoms, and I never thought that one day I would be able to reach such a high position.
A gust of wind blows, and the drunkenness rises.
Cao Peng was so excited that he walked along the path among the flowers, and before he knew it, he came to the back garden!
An artificial lake with frozen surface.
This lake is living water and is connected to the Zhang River. When spring comes and the flowers bloom, the scenery will be completely different.
There is a small pavilion on the lake. It is not large but extremely exquisite.
The twists and turns of the covered bridge formed a moving picture. However, it was late at night, and the garden should have been deserted, with no trace of people. But in the waterside pavilion, the lights were flashing, and there was the faint sound of a piano, and the tune was sad.
Cao Peng couldn't help but be curious and walked towards the waterside pavilion.
But behind a bamboo curtain, there was a graceful figure.
"Who's in there?"
Cao Peng asked in a deep voice.
Bang!
There was the sound of a water glass falling to the ground in the small pavilion, followed by a delicate female voice with Wu Nong's soft accent, "Who is outside?"
"Mrs. Joe?"
Cao Peng was startled, raised the bamboo curtain and walked into the small pavilion.
It’s true that Mrs. Da Qiao is in there!
In the entire Cao Mansion, not many people treated Wu Nong with his soft accent.
Huang Yueying can speak it, but over the years, she has mostly used northern Mandarin, and it has even become a habit. Sun Shangxiang often speaks Jiangdong dialect, but at this time, she is accompanying the old lady to talk in the flower hall, so it is impossible.
After thinking about it, there is only one Mrs. Da Qiao... It's just that it's so late, what is she doing alone in this small pavilion? Cao Peng stepped into the small pavilion, with doubts in his eyes.
Under the light, Mrs. Da Qiao was wearing a white dress that was out of season.
Wearing a snow-white fur cloak, it highlights her petite, exquisite and charming figure.
It's not too cold in the small pavilion, and there are two braziers burning.
Mrs. Qiao looked slightly panicked and stood there, a little at a loss.
There was a touch of burgundy on that gorgeous face, which was obviously caused by drinking.
Seeing Cao Peng, she seemed to be relieved. She stepped forward and bowed Yingying, and said softly: "I have met the Marquis of Wuxiang."
"Hey, sister-in-law, why do you need to be so polite?"
Cao Peng quickly reached out to help him, but when he touched Da Qiao's body, he couldn't help but frown.
"Why is my sister-in-law wearing so little on such a cold day?
I'll ask someone to bring me some clothes so I won't catch the cold... Xiao Shao also said on the way that he wanted to spend time with his sister-in-law, so how could he let her stay here alone?"
"no, I'm fine!"
Da Qiao quickly reached out and grabbed Cao Peng's sleeve.
Skin-to-skin contact, Mrs. Qiao's hands were cold and there was no warmth at all. Although they were as smooth and tender as mutton-fat jade, the coldness made it impossible to miss her at all.
"Sister-in-law, you're so cold and yet you say it's inappropriate."
"Marquis of Wuxiang..."
"Hey, you and I can be considered a family now. Xiang'er married me, and Xiao Shao became my teacher. Why are my sisters-in-law so different from each other?"
Mrs. Qiao's face turned red, and she looked even more pretty under the light.
"It was a slip of the tongue, uncle. Don't blame me."
"Sit down first."
Cao Peng could tell that Mrs. Qiao had something on her mind.
So he asked Mrs. Qiao to sit down, brought the two braziers closer, and added some charcoal to make the fire more intense.
He looked up at the table. There was a piano and a pair of drinking utensils on it.
He thought for a while, found an iron frame from the corner of the pavilion, put it on the brazier, then put a basin of water on it, and put the wine pot into the water to heat it.
"Sister-in-law is so elegant. The moon is full tonight. Are you sure you can play the piano and enjoy the moon?"
"ah?"
Mrs. Qiao was stunned for a moment and shook her head, "I'm just in a depressed mood, how can I be happy?
Uncle, is he here to persuade me?"
"Persuasion?" Cao Peng was startled, "What do you mean by persuasion? I just entered the house today and I still don't know what happened.
If sister-in-law is feeling depressed, she might as well talk to me."
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qiao did not answer.
She sat sideways, stretched out her jade-white catkins, and brushed the strings with her slender jade fingers, emitting melodious notes. Outside the small pavilion, the cold wind howled... along with the notes, there was a hint of desolation and helplessness.
Cao Peng didn't rush him. When he saw that the wine was almost gone, he took it out and filled up a glass.
"ah!"
Mrs. Qiao saw Cao Peng pick up the wine glass and drink it down in one gulp, and wanted to stop him, but it was a little late. She couldn't help but let out a soft cry, and wanted to speak, but she didn't know how to say it. There was a hint of crimson on her pretty face.
"What's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing."
Mrs. Qiao blushed and turned around quickly.
As the lights flickered, Cao Peng noticed that there was a little bit of carmine left on the rim of the cup in his hand. He suddenly realized it, and he quickly stood up and put down the wine cup with an embarrassed look on his face. He didn't know what to say.
This cup was used by Mrs. Qiao just now...
There are two cups on the table, one is upside down.
Cao Peng thought it was the cup used by Mrs. Qiao, but he didn't expect...
After a long while, Mrs. Qiao seemed to have calmed down, turned around, and suddenly smiled slightly, "Uncle, would you like to listen to me playing the piano?"
"I've heard for a long time that my sister-in-law has superb piano skills, but I've never heard of it before."
Mrs. Qiao smiled, "As for piano skills, the one with the best piano skills in the world is in my uncle's house, not as a concubine."
Yes, there is no one with the best piano skills in the world than Cai Yan.
Cao Peng knew this very well and immediately smiled.
Mrs. Qiao said nothing more, but played the strings.
The sound of the piano is melodious, making you cry and complain! Cao Peng is not an elegant person, but he has been influenced by Huang Yueying and Cai Yan over the years. Even if he does not have much elegance, he can follow the wind and listen to the quality of the piano sound.
.
Mrs. Da Qiao's piano skills are very good, but if we say she is outstanding, she is far inferior to her.
With Cai Yan taking the lead, it is difficult to say that her piano skills are superb. It can only be said that her piano skills have already reached the level of excellence.
"Since the Ming Dynasty, I have been playing around and climbing to the stage to clear up the jade.
See the vast openness of the Taifu, and observe the camp of Shengde.
The high gate is built in a steep place, and the two floating towers are almost too clear.
Standing in the middle of the sky, you can see the beauty of the sky, and even the flying pavilion reaches the west city..."
Mrs. Qiao suddenly opened her beautiful singing voice and sang softly.
Cao Peng was startled at first, and then he heard that this was in the twelfth year of Jian'an, when Cao Cao paid homage to the prime minister. When Tongquetai was built, he summoned civil and military officials to gather in Yecheng. Cao Zhi also attended the gathering and even performed on the stage.
The poem, which is the famous "Tongquetai Fu" in later generations, made Cao Cao very happy and praised it.
But why did Mrs. Qiao sing this Tongquetai Fu?
"Lin Zhang's river flows long, and the orchard's fruits flourish.
There are two platforms on the left and right, with jade dragons and golden phoenixes.
I took two friends to the southeast and enjoyed spending time with them day and night.
Looking down at the grandeur of the imperial capital, overlooking the floating clouds..."
When Mrs. Da Qiao sang this, she suddenly stopped singing, turned to look at Cao Peng, and said with a sad expression: "Uncle, don't you want to persuade me to obey you?"
Wait, wait, wait...
Cao Peng seems to understand!
Da Qiao was worried. Lao Cao had ulterior motives for her, so he was worried.
Everyone in the world knew that Lao Cao was lustful. It seemed reasonable for Mrs. Qiao to be so worried.
However, something seems wrong.
"Sister-in-law, who did you hear about this Tongquetai Fu?"
"Um?"
Da Qiao was startled and thought for a while, "But it was spread in Jiangdong the year before last when King Wei conquered Jingzhou."
The year before last?
That was actually last year.
But in terms of time, it’s almost time, so it’s not wrong.
Cao Peng said doubtfully: "Sister-in-law just sang Tongquetai Fu, and I know it too.
Zijian's writing is gorgeous and his words are very moving, so I also have the impression. But in my impression, my sister-in-law seemed to have sung a wrong line just now. My sister-in-law sang "Take Two Qiao to the Southeast", but I remember that after Zijian composed the poem, the king
I also had someone copy it and send it to me. But what was written on it was "Lian Er Bridge connects the East and West".
It's a bridge, not the sister-in-law's surname of 'Qiao'.
The second bridge Zijian mentioned was the two bridges connecting the Golden Tiger Platform and the Yulong Platform from the Tongque Terrace. How come it turned into "bringing two bridges to the southeast" when it reached Jiangdong? I'm afraid there is something wrong here.
It’s weird.”
Lao Cao, you have done such a great evil!
Look, you are known to everyone in the world for your lustful reputation. It is too much to put such a beautiful girl into such a state of sorrow.
In fact, Cao Peng could vaguely guess the reason behind this.
Taking two Qiao to the southeast should have come from Zhuge Liang. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the bridge and Qiao were connected... Remember in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang used such a poem on the Tongque Terrace to persuade Zhou Yu to send troops?
It was only when Cao Penghou in his previous life checked the poems of Han and Wei dynasties that he discovered the errors.
Cao Zhi never wrote the phrase "acquire two Qiao to the southeast". It was originally "connect two bridges to the east and west". However, due to the huge influence of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, many people in later generations thought that "acquire two Qiao to the southeast".
"Xi" was done by Cao Zhi, which further revealed Cao Cao's ambition towards Er Qiao.
This was really an injustice to Cao Cao, and an even greater injustice to Cao Zhi.
If we look at the entire poem, "Take Two Qiaos to the Southeast" is obviously inconsistent with the theme of the Tongque Terrace Fu, and the content is not very coherent. When describing the scenery of Tongque Terrace, why did it suddenly become
Jiangdong Erqiao?
In this life, Cao Peng even read the original article.
Not to mention that Cao Zhi once angered Cao Peng because of Zhen Mi's incident, and he had learned from the past. Let's just say that the environment he was in at that time would not have allowed him to make the words "take two Qiao to the southeast". Thinking about it this way, then this sentence
Obviously Zhuge Liang specially adapted it to anger Zhou Yu, and it spread quickly in Jiangdong.
Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang, you persuade Zhou Yu just to persuade Zhou Yu, why are you making a fuss about the reputation of a woman?
For some reason, Cao Peng suddenly felt more disgust towards Zhuge Liang.
"This is not the original text?"
"If you don't believe it, let Zhaoji and Yueying take you to Tongquetai tomorrow. You can see the two bridges with your own eyes. At that time, the king still had Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Gaogan of Bingzhou and Yuan Xi of Youzhou. How could it be possible?
Isn't it obvious that allowing Zijian to make such words will anger Jiangdong? Besides, my sister-in-law is also a smart person, and her literary talent is even far better than mine. Can't you see that this 'taking two Qiao to the southeast' is obviously
Doesn't it match the style of the whole article? I don't like Zijian very much...but as for his literary talents, I admire him very much. If he really revealed the meaning of "taking two Qiao to the southeast", it would never be possible
It is expressed in Tongquetai Fu. This must be a villain who is causing trouble in the dark."
Mrs. Qiao's expression suddenly changed!
No wonder, just because of such a sentence, she was under tremendous pressure.
Although "bringing two Qiaos to the southeast" also includes her younger sister, in comparison, Xiao Qiao has Zhou Yu to protect her from wind and rain, but Da Qiao... has to bear this pressure alone, which is too hard.
"Damn it, who is this immoral person who would fabricate such a lie?"
Mrs. Qiao blushed with embarrassment and looked up at Cao Peng.
"not me!"
Cao Peng quickly shook his head.
"I don't have to worry about you..."
Mrs. Qiao quickly lowered her head and answered softly.
After a moment, she suddenly raised her head again, looked at Cao Peng and asked, "But in this case, why does King Wei want Xiang'er and I to come to Yecheng?"
Cao Peng scratched his head and then shook his head.
"I have no idea!"
He stood up and said loudly: "But please don't worry, sister-in-law. Since I have complied with Ziyi's trust, I will never let anyone hurt you. That's great. I will resign and go back to Xingyang or Zhongyang Mountain to farm."
.Xiao Shao calls me 'teacher', and I will protect you in this life."
Da Qiao's eyes were red and sparkling with tears.
Since Sun Ce passed away, she has been supporting the family.
For Sun Shao, and for her and her two daughters... But who can know the hard work involved?
When he heard Cao Peng's words, Da Qiao suddenly felt a calmness that he had never experienced before. Even when Sun Ce was alive, there was no such sense of security. Under the light, Cao Peng's figure was tall and straight, revealing
A burst of heroic spirit, but it suddenly made Da Qiao feel a little fluttering in his heart, and his face turned red!
"Sister-in-law, it's cold in this small pavilion, don't stay here.
Go back to your room, today is the New Year, Xiao Shao just drank too much, and someone needs to take care of you. If you are sick, wouldn't it make Xiao Shao worried? I am here for everything, sister-in-law, don't worry too much, just rest assured."
Mrs. Da Qiao hesitated for a moment, then stood up and said, "Thank you, uncle."
The two of them walked out of the small pavilion and walked slowly along the corridor.
The bright moon, which was bright just now, disappeared without knowing when.
Snowflakes were floating in the sky, and I thought it would be the last winter snow in Yecheng... When walking down the corridor, Mrs. Da Qiao's feet slipped, she screamed, and fell to the ground. Cao Peng had a sharp eye and quick hands.
, stepped forward and supported the lady. But the posture seemed very ambiguous, and Mrs. Qiao happened to fall into Cao Peng's arms. She subconsciously grabbed the lapel of Cao Peng's clothes and snuggled into Cao Peng's arms...
What a strong arm!
Mrs. Qiao just sighed in her heart, but immediately blushed with embarrassment.
She hurriedly stood up and whispered in a low voice, somewhat at a loss: "Thank you uncle, I will go back first."
After saying that, he hurried away along the path.
The feeling of warm and fragrant soft jade is still in my arms, but the beautiful woman has already left.
Cao Peng stood there blankly, shook his head after a while, smiled bitterly, turned around and walked towards the hall.
Go rumble!
The sound of street drums echoed in the sky above Yecheng.
Cheers spread throughout the city, but the New Year has arrived...
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Cao Peng went to bed very late, so when he got up, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
After Zhen Mi waited on him to wash up, Sun Shangxiang ran in, pulled Cao Peng's sleeve, and said happily: "Ah Fu, sister-in-law is going to play at Tongque Terrace, why don't we go together too, okay?"
Although she has become an adult, Sun Shangxiang still has some traces of a girl in her temperament.
Cao Peng stretched out his hand, pinched her pretty face, and said softly: "You go and play by yourself. The king may summon me later, and I have to wait at home. Take care of your sister-in-law on the way, she seems to be worried. Much.
Enlighten her that she doesn’t have to worry about anything, there is nothing she can’t overcome!”
Sun Shangxiang looked at Cao Peng in confusion, not understanding what Cao Peng meant by that.
However, she still nodded obediently and agreed.
She is already over 20 years old, but she still has the temper of a child. When she was in Jiangdong, she used to play with guns and sticks, and even trained a group of female soldiers. After arriving in Xingyang, this problem did not change much... I bought a lot of strong
Many women, not generally Hu women, followed Sun Shangxiang and practiced martial arts every day.
Sun Shangxiang's martial arts is half full and half full.
And the art of war and strategy are even less effective.
Fortunately, she now has a group of small advisers around her. Cao Wan is very close to Sun Shangxiang and has a restless temper, so she summoned Jiang Wei and Cao Yang to make suggestions for Sun Shangxiang. Although Jiang Wei and others are young, they are very capable.
His martial arts skills are indeed impressive. Jiang Wei, in particular, showed his style as a master in the art of war earlier and helped Sun Shangxiang make plans. However, he allowed a bunch of ragtag men to practice quite impressively.
After sending Cai Yan and others out, Cao Peng was about to go find Pang Tong.
But unexpectedly, Cao Zun came and told Cao Peng that Cao Cao wanted to summon him...
"Just after the court meeting, the king asked me to come to you. You are the first person the king will personally summon this year."
There was an air of envy in Cao Zun's words.
But Cao Peng was not happy at all, but worried.
The more this is the case, the more it shows that Cao Cao attaches great importance to it. I hope it is not Mrs. Qiao's problem, otherwise there will be trouble.
Cao Peng followed Cao Zun and headed straight for the royal city.
Cao Cao is now the king of Wei. As the royal capital, Yecheng naturally has a royal city.
However, looking at the layout of the royal city, I am afraid it is not necessarily smaller than the imperial city of Xu Du. This also shows that Cao Cao no longer takes the Han Emperor in his eyes, and his ambitions are also revealed bit by bit. Cao Peng was not hindered in any way.
After entering the royal city, we went straight to Zichen Pavilion. Zichen Pavilion was the place where Cao Cao handled affairs, summoned ministers, and rested. Along the way, he saw that the royal city was heavily guarded.
"Uncle Dian, you're fine."
Outside Zichen Pavilion, Cao Peng saw Dian Wei.
Dian Wei is now in his forties, but he still looks majestic and majestic.
Dian Wei was also very happy to see Cao Peng, "Ah Fu, you're here... Come in quickly, the king is waiting for you."
"Uncle, how is the king feeling today?"
Dian Wei was startled and said with a smile: "Of course it's good. Do you still want to be angry with the king?"
"No, no..." Cao Peng waved his hands quickly, but said to himself: "As long as you are in a good mood, it shows that the old man is not too caring. If you are in a bad mood, you will suffer, and you will definitely be scolded."
Feeling somewhat relieved, Cao Peng and Dian Wei said goodbye and went straight to Zicheng Pavilion.
Where is Cao Zun?
Then he returned to Dongcao... right next to Zichen Pavilion, waiting for Cao Cao's orders at any time. But without Cao Cao's order, he could not enter Zichen Pavilion.
Zichen Pavilion is divided into two floors, the lower floor is for discussion, and the upper floor is where Cao Cao reads and rests.
Cao Cao was sitting in the main hall, holding a book and reading it with relish.
Cao Peng came in, but he ignored him, pretending not to see Cao Peng, and there was no expression on his face.
"Uncle, happy new year, happy new year!"
Cao Peng walked into the main hall of Zichen Pavilion with a playful smile on his face. He cupped his hands and bowed. There were servants on the side, who couldn't help being shocked when they saw this scene. This Zichen Pavilion is such a solemn place, and no one can come in.
Does he look trembling? Even Cao Cao's sons, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi and Cao Chong, are cautious and don't dare to go beyond the rules. But this one is good, but he seems to be visiting?
However, Cao Cao's reaction was even more surprising.
I saw him holding the book, standing up and throwing it at Cao Peng...
"How come you don't understand the rules?"
Cao Peng quickly dodged, picked up the book from the ground, and took a look.
Meng De's new book was published by Fu Zhi Lou.
Let me just say, Lao Cao must be pretending, so there are people who hold their own books and read them with gusto?
But his face still showed sincerity and fear.
"Uncle, how can you give me 'lose' on this first day of the new year?"
"you……"
Cao Cao was so angry that he laughed.
He shook his head, pointed at Cao Peng and said: "You, Afu, went to the northwest to practice for a year, and caused a lot of trouble, but you didn't make any progress.
Now that you're here, why are you standing there?
Come, give him something, save him from going out, and say it's not good to leave him alone."
It's strange to say that when Cao Cao saw Cao Peng, he was so happy that he couldn't lose his temper at all.
I originally planned to teach him a lesson, but ended up being annoyed by his playful and smiling face, but it all disappeared.
The waiter was secretly surprised.
People often say that the king regards the princes of Wuxiang as his own sons.
When we met today, we couldn't believe they were parents and children. They were clearly closer than parents and children!
If he hadn't known about it, he would have thought that Cao Peng was Cao Cao's biological son. At least when he faced Cao Zhang and others, he had never seen Cao Cao's expression like this. Still giving him a seat? What kind of treatment is that! Among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, I am afraid that There are no more than ten people who receive this kind of treatment. Unexpectedly, the Marquis of Wuxiang is so favored?
But I want to warn those boys later that if they offend this Wuxiang Marquis, they will die without knowing how.
The chamberlain was extremely frightened and brought a brocade stool.
Unexpectedly, Cao Peng glanced at the brocade stool, but said with a grimace: "Your Majesty, if you want to scold me, scold me first. It will save you a while and I will sit down. If your Majesty gets angry, I will stand up to accept the punishment." "
Cao Cao was so angry that he was so happy!
This bastard is just pushing his limits.
Now when anyone sees the lonely king, he is not only trembling with fear, but he still looks like a scoundrel. Really, really...
People can't stand the cold at high places!
Cao Cao is now called a loner, and he indeed feels much lonely.
Although Xun Yu did not resist him as much as in history, he became much more distant after he became king. He even refused to come to Yecheng and still stayed in Xudu. As for Guo Jia? He also showed a lot of restraint.
There is no longer the carefreeness of laughing and scolding...
The more Cao Peng behaves like this, the more cordial Cao Cao becomes.
Cao Peng was able to identify Cao Cao's character. People said Cao Cao was moody, but in fact he was really a man of temperament.
"You, Cao Afu, Cao King of Hell are so powerful, how dare I scold you?"
"Your Majesty, Ah Fu will always be Ah Fu. The words Cao Yama are like floating clouds to me, but they are nothing more than false praise."
"Absolute praise?"
Cao Cao couldn't laugh or cry, "You are a bastard who went on a killing spree in Hehuang, but many people criticized you...Many people scolded you in the Xudu Daily for killing people and being murderous, and you actually praised you?"
"If there are too many lice, they are not itchy. If they want to scold me, what can I do?"
When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
The words are rude or not, but they are reasonable... No, Gu is trying to blame him, why is it that he seems to be aggrieved for him?
Cao Cao immediately put away his smile and snorted coldly.
"Afu, you are so brave!"
"Yes, yes, I am very brave for the sake of the king."
"you……"
Cao Cao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He pointed at Cao Peng and said angrily after a while: "Then you tell Gu, if you adopt Sun Ce's orphan and widowed mother and marry Sun Shangxiang, how can you do it for the lonely king? That's good, Gu will spare you. Say it. If not, I will ask you to go back to Xingyang and do hard labor for the rest of your life, do you understand?"
Hard labor?
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Cao Peng breathed a sigh of relief.
Going to Xingyang to do hard labor?
Isn’t it similar to the nature of vacation?
He scratched his head, glanced at Cao Cao secretly, and bowed down to answer according to the countermeasure he had thought of last night: "Your Majesty, this matter is indeed a long story.
It’s not that I don’t want to report it to the king, but it’s Mrs. Qiao who warned me. She is quite worried about the king.”
"Um?"
Cao Peng said sternly: "I built the Tongquetai Fu the year before last. Does your Majesty know about it?"
"Of course I remember."
"But does the king know that there are villains who are secretly working to change the content of the Tongquetai Fu? Everyone in Jiangdong knows that the king has evil intentions towards Mrs. Qiao and the two sisters!
Originally, in the battle of Jingzhou, the king could easily defeat Jingnan.
Why did Jiangdong go against the norm and confront the king? This was certainly due to Sun Quan's greed, but it was also caused by the dissatisfaction of Jiangdong and others with the king. Especially Taishi Ci and other Sun Ce's old tribe were extremely angry with the king. I consider the king.
, so I concealed this matter..."
When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but be startled.
"What's going on in Jiangdong?"
Cao Peng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "When Zijian wrote the Tongquetai Fu, he once wrote the phrase 'two bridges connect the east and west'. Does your Majesty remember this?"
Cao Cao thought for a while and nodded to show that he remembered.
"But in Jiangdong, this phrase has become 'take two Qiao to the southeast'."
"ah?"
"After Mrs. Qiao's death, her mother and son were persecuted by Sun Quan and lived an extremely difficult life. Many old friends from Jiangdong were also dissatisfied with this, but they did not dare to persuade her because of Sun Zhongmou's tyranny.
There was an enlightened man, He Qi, the governor of Kuaiji, who found the minister through Lu Xun.
Oh, your Majesty, may you still remember that when Mr.
I can take care of Mrs. Qiao, mother and son. But I didn’t expect that Xiaoxiang would also come.
I thought that sooner or later, your Majesty would have to fight Jiangdong.
If Sun Shao is here, the king can have an excuse in the future to regain the family property for Sun Shao and conquer Jiangdong. In this case, there will inevitably be divisions within Jiangdong... He Qi and other Sun Ce's old troops may be inclined to
Sun Shao. In this way, the king can conquer Jiangdong with twice the result with half the effort.
Uncle, do you think I am thinking about you?"
After hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help but fell into deep thought...
If this is really the case, it is a way. Just to attack the Sun family for the Sun family? Cao Cao felt a little awkward after all.
But it is undeniable that if Sun Shao is here, he can indeed promote the split of Jiangdong.
It's just that this degree must be grasped well, Sun Shao must be controlled, and tigers must not be allowed to become a problem...Cao Cao's considerations are obviously more detailed and long-term than Cao Peng. He tapped the bookcase with his fingers, eyes burning, staring at Cao Peng.
friend.
Cao Peng, on the other hand, stood calmly.
"Sun Shao, am I your student now?"
"Exactly!"
“It’s okay for a teacher to stand up for his students.
But this relationship is still a bit distant. Ah Fu, since you married Sun Shangxiang, why don't you get closer to the Sun family? This way, when you stand up for Sun Shao in the future, Jiang Biao will be more accepting."
Closer?
