Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 484 Caught another tongue (4000)

Would Mrs. Ding know it was a fake?

Wu Liang raised his head to look at Madam Ding for the third time, and he read the answer from Madam Ding's expression.

Of course, Mrs. Ding's so-called "family tree" is a forgery, and this bunch of outrageous fake "family tree" is very likely to be Mrs. Ding's masterpiece.

"Ni'er is the eldest daughter of a gentleman. If you want to marry someone, you must pay attention to the right family."

Facing Wu Liang's gaze, Mrs. Ding also said without hesitation, "I was originally reluctant to this marriage, but now I find out that you are also a descendant of a famous family, so I have nothing to say about this matter. As for This crime of deception, if you treat Ni'er well after marriage, I don't bother to argue with you, understand?"

"I would like to follow Madam Ding's teaching..."

Wu Liang had no choice but to bow and say, tacitly.

Mrs. Ding's methods are also very good. Unexpectedly, what Cao Ang had secretly instructed him to do before was finally finished by Mrs. Ding, making him a queen of a famous family.

In addition, the word "deception" in Mrs. Ding's words, Wu Liang actually heard a pun.

Hiding and not reporting is deception.

Falsification of family trees is also deception.

In short, Wu Liang is a deceit anyway, so no matter whether he is willing or not, this matter is regarded as a small braid being caught by Mrs. Ding. If she treats Cao Ni badly in the future, Mrs. Ding may come to settle the old score at any time.

However, the braid that Mrs. Ding grabbed, in Wu Liang's view, could only be regarded as "poor parents in the world", and it was nothing at all.

He has been deceiving Boss Cao for so many things, and he can drink a pot of whatever he picks out, but most of them are kept in his heart, and even the closest people don't know...

"It's good that you understand, don't let down the gentleman's trust in you, and don't let down Nier's love for you."

Madam Ding nodded in satisfaction, a smile finally appeared on her face.

Just when the two were talking.

The servants who went to the other wives to ask for gold ornaments have also returned, and there are about a dozen ornaments in the tray.

Not all of them are gold ornaments, there are Bu Yao inlaid with gold and jade, hairpins made of pure gold, several pairs of exquisitely shaped earrings, bracelets, and several jade bracelets, jade hairpins and jade pendants.

"Are they all here?"

Mrs. Ding asked the two servants.

"If you go back to Madam, it's all here."

The servant bowed down and replied respectfully.

"If you want to observe it, take it all."

Madam Ding waved to Wu Liang quite generously.

"Thank you ma'am."

Wu Liang bowed his hands and thanked, then picked up the tray and quickly walked out the door, bringing these things to Prince Chamu to check for himself, to see if there is anything else that has a distinctive aura.

Mrs. Ding also has everything.

If Mrs. Ding listened to Wu Liang's request and only showed him the gold ornaments, she would inevitably miss something, and Wu Liang would inevitably find other reasons to ask for it.

Looking at Wu Liang's back, Cao Ni finally couldn't help but asked Mrs. Ding: "Mother, you really sent someone to Leling, Pingyuan, to investigate Wu Youcai. Why didn't you ask me what I meant before you went?"

"Ask you why?"

Mrs. Ding said disdainfully.

"Wu Youcai is my future husband after all. If you send someone to investigate him privately, he might think it's my intention and blame me for it in the future."

Cao Ni argued.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I learned to turn my elbows outside before I got married. It's really not good for girls."

Mrs. Ding snorted and said, "Then let me ask you, I have worked hard to raise you for more than ten years, and you are secretly in love with him, have you ever asked me what I mean?"

"..."

Cao Ni was at a loss for words. After holding back for a long time, he finally skipped this topic, and then asked, "Then mother, is Wu Youcai really a descendant of a famous family? In fact, I have felt this way before. Knowing how to read and write, and being able to tell many allusions and poems that I have never heard before, I felt that his life experience was not simple."

"The genealogy is all there, how can there be fake ones?"

Mrs. Ding asked back, and then said seriously, "So you have to understand that although you are the daughter of a gentleman, Wu Youcai is also a descendant of a famous family. In your light, you are by no means nobler than him... You need to keep in mind that we women should behave like women, and when you marry him in the future, you must always protect his dignity. Play petty temper and get angry with him, even if you are angry, you are not allowed to go back to your mother's house and tell your father and me. I don't like to hear it, and I won't comfort you and scold him. It doesn't matter either."

"Oh……"

Cao Ni nodded his head half-understood.

……

Quickly coming to the gate of Cao Mansion, Wu Liang put all the ornaments in front of Prince Chamu.

"General Wu, except for your pair of armbands, the rest of these things are all ordinary things, and there is no distinctive aura."

Prince Chamu only glanced at it, then shook his head and said.

"Not one thing? Look carefully, don't miss anything."

Wu Liang frowned.

"Indeed, it's gone. To me, this aura is like seeing fireflies in the dark. There's no need to look at it carefully. It's clear at a glance."

Prince Chamu said so, he read it again according to Wu Liang's meaning, shook his head again and said.

"In this way, Lu Bu may have done it unintentionally by presenting the pair of armlets to Cao's residence. He didn't know what the function of the pair of armlets is, and he might not even know that the pair of armlets are magic weapons?"

Wu Liang muttered to himself.

When people do anything, they should have a reasonable motivation. This motivation can be good or bad, but it must be there.

But in this matter, Wu Liang couldn't think of Lu Bu's motive.

If Lu Bu knew that the pair of armlets were magic weapons and knew their specific functions, then they were not sent to harm others, but should be for self-interest, or both harm and self-interest.

Whether it is harming others, self-interest, or harming others, he should ensure that the pair of armbands go to important people.

There are many important people in the Cao Mansion, whether it is Boss Cao, Mrs. Ding, or even Cao Ang and Cao Pi, but Cao Ni is definitely not an important person, and it has no practical significance to harm her, and she is very important to Lu Bu. There is no use value for it.

In addition, the pair of armlets and those accessories were sent over in one go...

Wu Liang had reason to infer that Lu Bu actually just regarded the pair of armbands and those accessories as the same thing, and gave them as a relatively valuable ordinary meeting gift.

And if so.

The function of this pair of armbands is even more vague, and it is even difficult to judge whether it is good or bad.

At the same time, Wu Liang also had some doubts about the origin of the pair of armlets.

Lu Bu's tomb robbery is a certainty, and until now he has found out where there may be an ancient tomb, and he will still send people to dig it... Then there is a high possibility that this pair of armbands is a sacrificial object in an ancient tomb, and there are even some ancient tombs. It may be a bright weapon that was pulled from the arm of a certain corpse, and he finally sent it to the Cao Mansion as an ordinary gold jewelry as a favor, and then it was transferred to his own hands by coincidence.

And for something like this.

Before he figured out the specific function, Wu Liang naturally didn't dare to wear it casually, so he could only take it with him temporarily and study it slowly.

"..."

Facing Wu Liang's soliloquies, Dian Wei, Yang Wanli and Prince Chamu didn't talk easily, but were also concentrating on their thoughts.

After a moment.

"Since there is no problem with the remaining accessories, I will send them back."

As Wu Liang spoke, he turned around and returned to Cao's mansion with the tray in his hand.

Seeing that Wu Liang sent the jewelry back so quickly, Madam Ding was also a little surprised, and asked, "So fast? You and Prince Chamu have already found out the gold smelting technology?"

"This is not."

Wu Liang said with a smile, "This metallurgical technology is quite exquisite, and it cannot be understood at a glance. Therefore, I decided to visit General Lu in person when I have time and ask him for advice in person."

"I see."

Madam Ding nodded slightly.

"I would also like to thank Madam for cooperating with me. If Madam has no other orders, the last general will leave first."

Wu Liang cupped his hands and said.

"Wait a minute, I still have something to tell you."

Mrs. Ding stopped him again, then waved to the servants and maids in the room, and said, "You all go back first."

"promise."

The servants and maids agreed, bowed lightly and retreated.

At this time, Madam Ding lowered her voice and said to Wu Liang: "General Wu, it is no problem for you to visit Lu Bu, but you still need to keep a proper distance from him... Although the gentleman adopted Lu Bu as his adopted son, it is not completely true. Trust him, this move is just an expedient measure, but you are different from Lu Bu, the gentleman has repeatedly told me that among these generals, apart from Xi Jun and General Xiahou, you are the most reassuring person for him, You must not betray the trust of a gentleman."

"I will understand at the end, thank you Madam for pointing it out."

Wu Liang nodded solemnly.

"You understand, just go."

Madam Ding smiled and nodded to Wu Liang.

So when Wu Liang went out again, Cao Nicai couldn't help asking: "Mother, did father teach you to say these words to Wu Youcai?"

"Your father never talked about the military with me, and I never stopped to ask."

Mrs. Ding shook her head and smiled.

"The mother..."

Cao Ni showed a puzzled expression.

"I only see that your father wants Wu Youcai to fight with Lu Bu instead of making peace, so now that I hear that Wu Youcai wants to visit Lu Bu, I just remind him in advance."

Madam Ding then lowered her voice and said, "Mother's move is also for your sake. If Wu Youcai gets too close to Lu Bu, your father's character will definitely make you suspicious, and it will be very difficult for you to be caught in the middle. It's better to take precautions before they happen, lest Wu Youcai violate your father's taboo in a daze... Also, if you marry Wu Youcai in the future, you should also wait for the opportunity to arrange for him to have more contacts with your elder brother Zixiu. Your elder brother Zixiu is the eldest son. He is also the elder brother of your mother and compatriots. He will probably be a link between the past and the future. If he gets better, he will naturally treat you well, and of course he will not be bad to Wu Youcai. Brother Xiu is also beneficial, and it can also make mother feel at ease, do you understand?"

……

After Cao Mansion came out, Wu Liang took people back to Chen Liu directly.

He had never thought of having too much interaction with Lu Bu, at least now, he definitely would not. After all, Lu Bu is dissatisfied with him now, and rushing to the door is tantamount to a bad luck.

What's more, the matter of the pair of armbands is not something that can be asked face to face.

Compared with Lu Bu, Wu Liang is more interested in Zhen Mi and the "ancient Tang Dynasty" Northern Tang Dynasty.

This time he went back and settled the affairs of "Yongqiu Country", so he planned to take people to the north immediately to visit, so that he should be able to come back before the Spring Festival and enjoy a good New Year.

In fact, there is another consideration in this move.

Now that Boss Cao has won Xuzhou and Qingzhou one after another, Yuan Shao has begun to be dissatisfied with Boss Cao's rapid growth, and he does not know how many articles condemning Boss Cao.

It's just that it's late autumn now, and it's not suitable for another war, so the two sides are still trying to keep calm, and they are fighting with each other.

But if this continues, it is not impossible for the Battle of Guandu to break out in advance.

Therefore, relatively speaking, it is relatively easy to enter Yuan Shao's territory now. When Boss Cao and Yuan Shao really conflict, the border towns will be heavily guarded, and it may be very difficult to cross the border.

Also.

Because of his appearance as a time traveler, many historical events have changed. God knows how long the battle of Guandu, which will determine the outcome, will last if Boss Cao and Yuan Shao clash, and will Boss Cao sneak attack Wu The opportunity to nest the granary, all of this is an unknown.

Therefore, some of Wu Liang's plans should not be delayed, so as not to cause more accidents.

however.

Wu Liang didn't want to touch Lu Bu's eyebrows, but it didn't mean that Lu Bu, who had been robbed of the limelight, also wanted to be a quiet and handsome man.

It was only the third day when Wu Liang returned to Chenliu.

Some moths have already been born.

Back in the early morning of the third day in Chenliu, someone outside the Wu residence suddenly begged to see him. The person who came was none other than Zhu Lu, who was now an official worshiper of Zhonglang General just like Wu Liang.

Wu Liang used practical actions to practice the lie of "being each other's nobles" with Zhu Lu, and it was hard for Zhu Lu to believe it or not.

Zhu Lu's visit this time is not a casual visit, nor is it a gift, but a "gift".

Behind him, a few field soldiers escorted a middle-aged man who was tied into a rice dumpling. The man was a little thin, his face was painted, and there was still blood under his nose. It was obvious that Zhu had been killed before he came. Lu Haosheng "entertained" him.

"General Zhu, you are..."

The soldiers guarding the gate of the Wu Mansion asked a little strangely. Naturally, they would not let them go casually. They had to ask clearly first and go back to report before obeying orders.

"You go in and report to General Wu, just say that I scratched my tongue."

Zhu Lu opened his mouth and said with a big grin, "Since this person came to Chenliu the day before yesterday, he has been secretly inquiring about General Wu. My Zhu family has many eyes and ears in Chenliu. I have been following him early in the morning, so I ordered someone to Tie him up."
