Chapter 711 You have Zhang Liangji, I have a wall ladder
Tongque Terrace is only eighteen miles away from Yecheng.
Such a big thing happened during the day. Hundreds of people were imprisoned in Yecheng Prison. Even though Cao Cao was in the capital, it was impossible that he didn't know about it. But the problem is that Cao Cao has not made any statement so far!
This itself illustrates some problems!
He is not very satisfied with Huan Lang either...
Maybe in Cao Cao's heart, he wanted to use Cao Peng's hand to teach Huan Lang a lesson. Everyone knows that Cao Peng is a sharp butcher knife in Cao Cao's hand, and it is the kind of butcher knife that never rusts or wears out.
.
The sun is shining brightly, shining on the earth.
In the Royal Garden of the Royal Capital, Mrs. Bian sat down with a smile and looked around at everyone.
All around were Cao Cao's ladies. Lin Lin finally came down, and there were more than a dozen of them. They all talked to Mrs. Bian. However, Mrs. Bian always had a smile on her face and kept nodding in agreement.
"Sister, if the king doesn't care about Cao Peng in this matter, I'm afraid his arrogance will become even more arrogant..."
"Yes, he is just a nephew of the king. He has made some achievements and is so domineering. Could it be that this Ye city belongs to Cao Peng? He just beats people and arrests them. What should he do?
What are your plans? Also, the captain of the city gate is his brother-in-law, and he is even more arrogant, which is really worrying."
"..."
A group of women chattered bad things about Cao Peng.
Mrs. Bian always smiled and just nodded.
After everyone finished speaking, she said: "I already understand everyone's worries.
The Marquis of Wuxiang may be a little arrogant, but to say he is arrogant and domineering is a bit too much... Sister of the Yin family, don’t spread the words you just said. The Marquis of Wuxiang did not start his career by relying on some merits, but because of his achievements.
Great credit. Your Majesty regards him as his own son. If what you just said reached His Majesty's ears, it would probably cause trouble. You should be careful with your words in the future. However, I will let Your Majesty know about this matter. I believe Your Majesty will make a decision.
, sisters don’t have to worry about Wuxiang Hou coming to cause trouble.
But there is something that I need to know with my sisters.
Don't provoke the Marquis of Wuxiang. The Marquis of Wuxiang is a humble gentleman...
Sometimes, it's best to think twice when something happens. Don't let others say a few words and lose your sense of proportion. Now the king is no longer the one who attracted the attention of the world. When we do things, we must be more careful and don't ruin the reputation of the king."
Mrs. Bian's words were very gentle, but also contained a bit of warning.
The women quickly agreed and chatted for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.
They left, but Mrs. Bian still sat in the same place. She still had a faint smile on her face. After a moment, she clapped her hands and whispered: "Everyone, come out."
From behind the screen in the flower hall, three women came out.
Some of the older ones are in their late 40s, and some of the younger ones are less than 30 years old.
One of them was Cao Jie's mother, Wang Zhaoyi. The three of them bowed to Mrs. Bian and sat down.
"Did you hear what they just said?"
Wang Zhaoyi continued to work hard and kept silent.
Instead, it was an extremely charming woman with endless charm in her eyebrows who said softly: "They are just a bunch of idiots, why should I pay attention to them, sister?"
This woman is Mrs. Zou.
She was Zhang Xiu's aunt, Mrs. Zou, who was responsible for Cao Cao's defeat in Wancheng.
After Cao Cao's defeat, Mrs. Zou followed Cao Cao to Xudu. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, but her charm is still there and charming. She is over thirty years old, like a ripe peach, making her
People covet her. Although she has no children, she is the woman Cao Cao loves the most.
And another woman, named Du.
Her real name is Du Yuan, but everyone is accustomed to calling her Mrs. Du.
The youngest, twenty-eight years old. She is equally charming, but within her charm, she also has a cool temperament.
She was originally the wife of Qin Yilu, a general under Lu Bu's tribe. Later, she was valued by Cao Cao and was included in his house.
There is a saying in later unofficial history that Guan Yu later traveled thousands of miles alone because of this Du woman. Originally, Guan Yu fell in love with Du and asked Cao Cao to marry Du after breaking up with Lu Bu. Cao Cao also agreed.
Who knows. Although Cao Cao agreed, he was also curious about what Du could do to make the hard-hearted Guan Yu moved. So after capturing Du, he went to visit him. But this didn't look good, and Cao Cao immediately moved too.
With his heart in mind, he brought Du Shi into his room.
In the end, Guan Cao turned against him...
The Du family has a son named Qin Lang, who is twelve years old.
Although he is not Cao Cao's biological flesh and blood, Cao Cao loves Qin Lang very much.
This Qin Lang was also a man of both civil and military skills. He was well trained in martial arts and was skilled in riding and shooting. After the Du family returned to Cao Cao, they also kept a low profile. Although they were not as beloved by Cao Cao as the Zou family, they were equally valued by Cao Cao.
These women have no foundation!
Mrs. Bian always needs some helpers when she is in charge of the inner house.
Mrs. Du is calm, Mrs. Zou is fierce, and Wang Zhaoyi is very close to Mrs. Bian because of Cao Jie's relationship. There are three gangs of heroes, and Mrs. Bian is also very attracted to these three women.
"I'm afraid that someone is instigating it behind my back."
Mrs. Du suddenly said, "If this were not the case, why would everyone suddenly come over and let my sister stand out?"
"What my sister means is..."
"It's like killing two birds with one stone."
"how do I say this?"
Mrs. Du raised her head, with a sneer on her cold and pretty face.
"Sister, can't you really see it?
Some people want to compete with their sister for the right to the harem, and at the same time drive a wedge between her sister and the Marquis of Wuxiang.
No one knows that the prince and the Marquis of Wuxiang have a teacher-student relationship.
If the elder sister comes forward, I am afraid that there will be some rifts between the prince and the Marquis of Wuxiang. Who will benefit by then? If the younger sister's guess is correct, I am afraid that at this moment, there will be a guest in the Marquis of Wuxiang's house.
"
Mrs. Bian couldn't help laughing when she heard this!
"A Yuan is right...then tell me, how should I deal with it?"
"As for my sister, it is always bad to offend the Marquis of Wuxiang if you step forward, or offend those idiots if you don't step forward.
Therefore, the younger sister thought that the older sister might as well go to the Marquis's Mansion in Wuxiang.
It's called raising an army to investigate the crime, but it's actually trying to win over the Marquis of Wuxiang and put on a show to look at those idiots, but it's not serious."
"Then tell me, what excuse should I use to go?"
Mrs. Du was silent!
On the other hand, Mrs. Zou could not hold back her temper. She glared at Mrs. Du, turned to Mrs. Bian and said: "Sister, to tell you the truth, A Yuan has some selfish intentions, and he still wants his sister to fulfill his wish... My sister also knows that Yuan Ming has already
Thirteen! In a few years, he will be crowned and leave the palace to start his own business... Although the king loves Yuan Ming, Yuan Ming has no merit and no one can help him. A few days ago, A Yuan and I
Speaking of this matter, I think it would be better to go to Wuxiang Hou's sect and practice for some time.
First, you can increase your experience.
Secondly, the Marquis of Wuxiang and the Crown Prince have a close personal relationship, and there will always be a few helpers around the Crown Prince in the future.
And these three... the Marquis of Wuxiang has learned a lot and is a master in the art of war in the world. It is also an opportunity for Yuan Ming to study under the Marquis of Wuxiang. A Yuan also agrees, but he suffers from the lack of connections and wants his sister to help him. "
Yuan and Ming Dynasty, also known as Qin Lang.
The epithet "Yuan Ming" was given by Cao Cao, which shows Cao Cao's love for him.
When Mrs. Bian heard this, she immediately laughed.
"Ayuan, we are all our sisters, why shouldn't we speak up?
How about this? I will send the Marquis of Wuxiang to come tomorrow, and I will just tell him about this matter... If the Marquis of Wuxiang comes to visit, he must give me some thin noodles, so it shouldn't be a big problem. But there is one thing, I have to
As you know A Yuan, it is not difficult for Yuan Ming to come to the sect of the Marquis of Wuxiang, but as far as I know, the king may have great use for the Marquis of Wuxiang, so when the time comes, the Marquis of Wuxiang may not stay in Yecheng, so Yuan Ming is very
maybe……"
There is no need to elaborate on Du's love for Qin Lang.
Hearing what Mrs. Bian said, Mrs. Du was overjoyed and quickly stood up to thank her.
Historically, Qin Lang followed Cao Pi and later became the pillar of Cao Wei. Now that Cao Pi is dead and Qin Lang has grown up, he needs someone who can rely on support to lead him on the road. Cao Peng is a backer and also a springboard. Through Cao Peng
Peng, Qin Lang can be closely linked with Cao Zhang.
And the alliance between Mrs. Du and Mrs. Bian will become more stable.
This is a win-win situation, how could Mrs. Bian refuse?
She is not a woman with much talent and knowledge, nor is she the kind of wealthy daughter of a noble family...
Born in the grassroots and raised in the grassroots, Mrs. Bian knew how to win people's hearts even better than Mrs. Huan. In the past, Mrs. Bian was a threat to Cao Pi because Cao Peng became Cao Chong's teacher, so she was slightly hostile to Cao Peng. But then,
The death of Cao Pi and the rise of Cao Zhang also made Mrs. Bian look at Cao Peng again. She knew very well that without strong support, Cao Zhang would face many difficulties.
After careful consideration, Cao Peng is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty!
Xiao Huan, although you have extraordinary means.
But not everyone in this world is a fool... You are smart, but the mistake is that you are too smart. As Ah Fu said, the agency was too smart, but it cost your life... You think I can't see it
Come on, are you the one causing the trouble? I didn’t want to argue with you, but since you’ve made the move, I can’t show weakness!
A strange smile flashed across Mrs. Bian's face...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In a blink of an eye, it will be noon.
Huan Lang still didn't take any action. He seemed to have made up his mind not to come and apologize.
Cao Peng was at home, waiting silently.
Wang Ping Xiang Chong has summoned eight hundred white camel soldiers and is ready to go at any time.
I have said it before: If you don’t come to apologize, I will knock on your door and destroy your house!
I, Cao Afu, always do what I say...even if the King of Heaven comes, I can't stop me.
The atmosphere in the Wuxiang Hou Mansion seemed a bit tense.
Cao Ji looked at Cao Peng's calm expression and tried to stop him, but he still swallowed the words.
"Please advise your brother."
Mrs. Zhang was also worried and wanted Cao Nan to come forward.
But Cao Nan smiled and said softly: "Mom, don't worry, Ah Fu is old and he has a sense of what he does."
"but……"
"Mother has forgotten that I was hit by Fu Jun and broke my leg. What was Ah Fu like?
His temperament looks very gentle, but inside he is fierce and strong. No one can stop what he has decided. Let's not get involved in this matter. This is a matter of face for the Wuxiang Marquis Mansion, and we must not give in.
Ah Fu was an important minister in the court and had made countless achievements.
If a scoundrel rides on his neck like this but doesn't respond, in the future, when people from the Cao Mansion go out, they will be treated like dwarves. As for Uncle Wang, you don't have to worry. If Uncle Wang really wanted to intervene, he would have sent someone last night
Come here. But Uncle Wang has not taken any action now, which has already explained the problem."
After being the wife of the eunuch for several years, Cao Nan's vision is no longer the timid little daughter-in-law she used to be in Jiyang Deng Village. Her husband and her brothers have both become successful. Cao Nan has been with Deng Ji in Hedong for many years.
The world is far beyond what the old lady can compare with, and she has a lot of experience.
Even after her daughter said so, the old lady had no choice but to shut up.
I took Cao Ji with me and ran to the Buddhist temple built by my family to pray, hoping not to cause too much trouble...
Cai Yan, Huang Yueying, Xia Houzhen, Bu Luan, Guo Huan, Zhen Mi and Sun Shangxiang were also summoned. Cao Wan, Cao Yang, Cao Yun, Cao Rui and other children were also summoned into the Buddha.
Hall.
The small Buddhist hall suddenly became crowded.
Later, Mrs. Qiao also came with Sun Shao and her two daughters and chanted Buddhist prayers with the old lady.
"Sir, it's almost noon!"
Cao Peng stood up in the hall.
"Since Huan Lang is so shameless, don't blame me for being rude."
Just when he was about to set off, he suddenly heard a call from outside the door, "The Marquis of Dongxiang wants to see you!"
Dongxiang Hou, Cao Chong?
Cao Peng was stunned for a moment, and his brows suddenly furrowed.
He and Cao Chong had a pretty good time. However, as Cao Chong grew up, especially after the Zhou Buyi incident, an irreparable rift developed between Cao Peng and Cao Chong.
Later, Cao Peng was away fighting and gradually lost contact with Cao Chong.
There were occasional correspondence exchanges, but they were all superficial. The feeling of unfamiliarity was no longer the close feeling of the past.
Even to some extent, the gap between the two is getting wider and wider.
Now Cao Zhan suddenly comes...
Cao Peng's eyes narrowed, and a look of sadness flashed across his eyes.
It came at the right time.
"welcome!"
He said in a deep voice.
"Young master, Na Bolong and Zijun..."
"You just go and notify the two of them immediately and let them act as usual."
Ma Su agreed and immediately retreated.
Cao Peng, on the other hand, strode out of the living room.
Cang Shu, I haven’t seen you for so many years. Are you still so fond of playing tricks?
He sighed quietly in his heart, feeling a sense of loss... From this moment on, the teacher-student friendship between him and Cao Chong will be gone!
How could Cao Peng not understand Cao Chong's purpose?
When he arrived at the door of the mansion, he saw that Cao Chong had already stepped onto the doorstep. After not seeing him for many years, Cao Chong already looked like a young adult and no longer had the childish air of the past. He was dressed in a green shirt, which highlighted his outstanding temperament. Although he was not tall,
It's very tall, but it doesn't have an elegant charm.
Cao Chong also looked happy when he saw Cao Peng.
He quickly stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Cao, are you okay?
When I heard that my brother was coming, Cang Shu had already planned to pay him a visit, but there were too many things around him, so he was delayed. Please don't blame me."
When Cao Zhang saw Cao Peng now, he still practiced the courtesy of teacher and student.
Even though he was just making up the numbers at first, he always maintained respect for Cao Peng in terms of etiquette.
The courtesy of teacher and student comes first, and then the love of brotherhood.
But Cao Chong...
Those who actually performed the apprenticeship ceremony in front of Cao Cao back then, now have no friendship between teacher and student.
Cao Peng couldn't help feeling sad.
But there was still a smile on his face, "Cang Shu, how are you doing lately?"
After the two exchanged greetings, they came to the hall and sat down.
"I heard that my sisters-in-law were frightened yesterday, so Cang Shu came to visit."
"My dear brother, I'm interested...but I'm just a bit of a snake and a rat. I can't say I'm frightened, but I'm just a little out of sorts.
It’s no longer serious, but now they are chanting sutras in the Buddhist hall, so I won’t let them come to visit them.”
Are you really here to visit?
Or, do you want to wait for Huan Lang to apologize?
If you really planned to do this, you would have come earlier, but not at this time...
You're not here to visit me, you're here to block me!
Do you really think I can't see what you're thinking?
You are clearly here to slap me in the face...
If Cao Chong had come earlier, maybe Cao Peng would have let Huanlang and his son go. However, he was so clever and came to the door at the right time. If it sounds good, you are here to pay a visit. If it sounds bad, you are betting on me.
Cao Peng has already issued harsh words and wants to teach Huan Lang a lesson.
If you can't do it, you will definitely be laughed at. Cao Chong came to the door, not only stopped Cao Peng, but also showed his abilities to people. But in Cao Peng's eyes, Cao Chong's these are just little cleverness, and they are not worthy of publicity at all.
.Do you think that while you are sitting here, I can’t do anything? Cang Shu, you have forgotten how I dealt with Fu Wan and his son. I dared to chop off Fu Wan’s hand, and I dare to burn his Huan Lang today.
Zhuangzi.
Well, since you want to act, then I will act with you!
Cao Peng couldn't help but sigh secretly.
It's just that after this scene is over, there is no room for relaxation between us...
Cao Chong discussed the past and discussed the present, citing classics and classics, showing his extraordinary talent and learning.
To be honest, the literary youth genes of Cao's father and son are very developed. Needless to say, Cao Cao, as the founder of Jian'an literary style, the Duke of Zhou vomited food, and the world returned to his heart, which can be said to be majestic; Cao Zhi's Luo Shenfu, Tongquetai
Fu, as well as the seven-step poem that has been passed down through the ages, boiling beans and burning bean sprouts, and beans weeping in the cauldron, are unparalleled in elegance. Even Cao Pi was also a man of literary talent and was a leader of this era.
Historically, Cao Chong died early, so he has no famous works.
But judging from his current conversation, he has indeed inherited Lao Cao's genes, which is extraordinary...
Cao Peng looked at him with a smile on his face, but he was extremely melancholy in his heart.
No matter what, there is a teacher-student relationship after all. Once upon a time, Cao Chong placed his hopes on Cao Peng. Letting him read Hong Fan, reading food and goods journals, and even writing poems were all Cao Peng's ideals.
However, this relationship is so fragile.
However, in a short period of time, it was shattered and nothing existed.
I just don’t know what his expression will be when he finds out that he burned down Huan Lang’s farm?
Come to think of it, you can see it soon!
Cao Peng didn't mind chatting with Cao Chong. As time passed slowly, he suddenly saw someone come in and whispered a few words in Cao Chong's ear. Cao Chong's face suddenly changed. The chat seemed to disappear all of a sudden.
When he was done, he turned to look at Cao Peng, the expression on his face was extremely strange.
"Cang Shu, it's getting late, let's go home."
Cao Peng stood up and said warmly: "I guess you are tired now. Go back and have a good rest. Don't work too hard.
You have been with me for three years and you should know my temper.
I am a person who never cares about the consequences of doing things. I can't go home and farm. However, I will never forgive anyone who offends me. I will never change what I say... Go back and wait until I say goodbye to Madam.
No. If Madam refuses to forgive me, I will come to Madam’s house to apologize to Madam in person someday.”
Cao Peng's voice sounded very soft.
But to Cao Chong's ears, it was particularly harsh!
He suddenly felt like a clown, trying all these tricks, but they didn't pick up on them at all.
Without strength, any cleverness is fake.
Cao Chong looked at the smile on Cao Peng's face, but suddenly stood up and bowed, "Thank you teacher for your teaching."
This is probably the last lesson Cao Peng teaches Cao Chong.
In a real sense, the last lesson.
Following Cao Chong's salute, Cao Peng sighed in his heart, shook his head and said nothing.
Cao Chong immediately said goodbye and left.
But when he saw Ma Su coming in from outside, he suddenly had no intention of asking how Huan Lang was doing.
"Youchang, accompany me on horseback."
He felt a little depressed and strode out of the Hou Mansion.
Someone had already brought the liger. Cao Peng got on his horse and headed out of the city. Ma Di quickly followed Cao Peng. Before leaving, he even sent someone to notify Shamoke and Zhao Yun. Anyway, let Cao Peng leave alone.
There is still some danger. As Cao Peng's personal bodyguards, Zhao Yun and Samoko must be followed by one of them.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
On the second floor of Zichen Pavilion, Cao Cao stood up from the bed and stretched.
"Ah Fu, did you really burn down Huan Lang's farm?"
Yue Ban quickly replied: "Yes... after I heard about it, I went to see it specially. But it was not as serious as it was said. I just burned a few houses and injured a few people, but no lives were lost."
Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh, "This bastard can't change his bad temper."
After pondering for a moment, he asked: "What do people outside say?"
"There are various theories. Some say that Huan Lang brought the blame on himself, while others say that the Marquis of Wuxiang was too overbearing."
"Well, that's a bit overbearing!"
Cao Cao's lips curled up slightly, "You are so overbearing, but you cannot go unpunished.
Let's do this. You go to the Marquis' Mansion in Wuxiang and tell Ah Fu that he will be fined a year's salary as compensation. After all, it is his property, how can he just burn it? Also, warn him about the recent situation.
Be honest, otherwise Junshi, the lonely envoy, will return to Xudu immediately and prevent him from having a reunion year."
"Here!"
Yue Ban couldn't help but smile in his heart.
What kind of punishment is this?
A year's salary?
Maybe for ordinary officials, it is a relatively serious punishment, but for the Marquis of Wuxiang, it is nothing. Who doesn't know that this Marquis of Wuxiang is the master of gold, making money every day, and doesn't care about the salary at all. I heard that the Marquis of Wuxiang is a master of gold.
In the past two days since Cao Hong came back, he was looking for people everywhere, saying that he was going to do a big thing.
The driving force behind the scenes is said to be Marquis Wuxiang!
Many people in the court have expressed their willingness to participate... Yue Ban does not have the qualifications, nor the financial resources, otherwise, he will get involved no matter what. Follow the Marquis of Wuxiang, and you will have meat to eat!
However, it can also be seen from this that the king's trust and love for Wu Xianghou have reached an unprecedented level.
Yue Ban had already made up his mind and decided to deal with Hou Haosheng of Wuxiang.
Even if we can't be friends, don't offend Cao Peng like Huan Lang and his son...
As everyone knows, after Yue Ban left, Cao Cao came to sit down at the desk. He spread out a piece of cold gold paper and wrote the names of Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi and Cao Chong on it. After a long time, he suddenly picked up a pen and wrote,
After soaking in the ink, he scratched Cao Chong's name hard, leaving only a thick ink mark!
"A little cleverness will never lead to a big deal..."
Cao Cao got up, walked to the window, and opened the window.
Looking at the birds singing and the fragrance of flowers outside, he couldn't help but sighed softly... (To be continued)
