Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 128 Sao Manipulation... How does an illegitimate child become a prince?
Cao De was standing in front of the gate of Cao Jun's camp, pacing left and right, looking a little flustered...

He is not as calm as his elder brother Cao Cao, and he can't always hide things in his heart. What's more, what's hiding in his heart is not one thing, but... three things.

The first thing - the "Yin Lin" who can secure the world is Lu Yu;

The second thing--the "auspicious" jade pendant that Lu Yu was carrying, he is still Lu Yu, he is Cao Yu;
The third thing--sister-in-law messed up the mandarin ducks. Before Cao De came, I heard that Cao Mu had been running to Lu Yu's mansion every two days in the past three days, staying for a whole day. This is the rhythm of chaos!

Coming all the way in a carriage, Cao De felt that he was about to suffer from internal injuries, and he really couldn't vomit.

Finally, the gate of the village opened...

"Young Master De, come here..." Several soldiers greeted in a low voice, leading Cao De into the village. They all walked along the inner side of the wall, deliberately choosing places with few people, quite cautiously.

This point, Cao De can understand, there are many people from Qiao County in the army, and many of them have met Cao De...

If the news that he is alive is known to these people, then the "righteousness" held high by the elder brother Cao Cao will be somewhat untenable.

After turning a few turns, he entered a tent in a corner, where Cao Cao had been waiting for a long time.

Cao Cao first winked at a few soldiers. These were Cao Cao's confidants and personal guards. He immediately understood and withdrew tacitly, guarding a position far away from here.

Only then did Cao Cao speak. "Brother De, you shouldn't be here!"

That's right, what's going on now, don't say that there are two remaining cities in Xuzhou, even if Xuzhou is completely captured, Cao De shouldn't be here, this is a great taboo.

It seems that Cao Cao blames this younger brother, but his eyes are shining with light. This is the light that only emerges when close relatives meet. After all, Cao Cao cares about this younger brother!
If it wasn't for Dedi's sudden birth, A Weng Cao Song would not have made Cao Cao lawless. It can be said that Dedi has dispersed a lot of firepower for him since he was a child!

With this in mind, Cao Cao could no longer restrain his emotions, he opened his arms and hugged Cao De who was almost invisible.

"Brother De, I have wronged you during this time..."

Guilt, Cao Cao felt guilty from the bottom of his heart...

It is true that Lu Yu's strategy was perfect. He used the feigned death of A Weng and his younger brother to stand on the high ground of morality. In this way, if the princes of all walks of life openly supported Tao Qian, they would be enemies of the world's justice.

Cao Cao also took down the four cities and counties of Xuzhou as he wished, occupying most of Xuzhou, but...the ones who were wronged were Youzi's living A Weng and his younger brother. They had to change their appearance, they had to say goodbye to their old circles and friends...this was done Great sacrifice!

At this moment, it was Cao Cao who never liked to cry, and tears appeared inexplicably in his eyes.

"Brother De, Brother De..."

He patted Cao De's back continuously, and whispered, the Cao family's ancestors are passed down from generation to generation, but the brotherhood is also very precious.

"As the eldest brother said, I really shouldn't come here, but...the matter is very important. If I don't tell the matter to the elder brother, I will feel uneasy! It is for this reason...even if I travel long distances, even if I take some risks , I have to come too..."

What Cao De said was extremely firm.

This made Cao Cao realize that Dedi's trip must be of great importance.

"Brother De, sit down and speak slowly."

Cao Cao motioned for Cao De to sit down, but Cao De didn't care too much, and immediately said everything he wanted to say.

"Brother... I'm here because I have three important things to tell you..."

three item?Cao Cao was taken aback... Are there so many urgent matters?

Before Cao Cao asked back, Cao De's words continued to spread. "First thing, Mr. Lu... Lu Yu, in fact, he... he is Yinlin!"

"In the past... I was ordered by Aweng to go to Pengcheng, Xuzhou to help Yinlin and his younger brother. It was his words that made my elder brother take over Yanzhou, and the situation today...Yinlin's appearance, brother...you will never remember wrong , he...he is..."

Before Cao De could finish speaking.

Shhh, Cao Cao pointed his index finger to signal Cao De to stop talking...

He knelt down on the bamboo mat first, and then slowly opened his mouth after Cao De also knelt down. "Brother De, as long as you know about this, don't mention it to outsiders..."

"As early as in the past, when he proposed the method of breaking the yellow scarf and accepting the yellow scarf, I had doubts. In addition, Yinlin's characteristics were too obvious, siblings, and age. As early as half a year ago, I was almost certain that he was As mentioned in the Yuedan review, the Yinlin who 'get it can make the world safe'...but..."

Before Cao Cao could finish his sentence, Cao De asked first, "Big brother knew about it early on? Then... big brother deliberately pretended not to know?"

"Haha..." Cao Cao waved his hands and said with a smile. "Brother De doesn't need to worry about this. Is it important that Lu Yu is Yinlin? Haha, the important thing is that under his plan, we have secured Yanzhou, and now we have acquired the four counties of Xuzhou. What's more important is that Lu Yu is our The shogunate's meritorious service!"

"As long as he doesn't want to talk about it, I, Cao Cao, can be confused for the rest of my life, and I can hide it for him for the rest of my life! Besides, brother De, brother De, after experiencing the change in Langya, haven't you... realized that 'everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty? ' makes sense?"

Huo... Is Pifu innocent, pregnant with Bi?

For Cao De, Cao Cao's words were like enlightenment. A man is innocent, but he is guilty of his jade. In the past, General Cao Ren brought Yinlin's "every man's innocence, his guilt of his jade" to him and Ah Weng. , but... they didn't take it seriously at all.

The results of it?Langya's misfortune, convoy looting, casualties... If Yin Lin hadn't expected it, how could Cao De still be alive?How can I see my eldest brother here again?
Got it, brother is right...

Yinlin's name is too resounding, especially the somewhat mysterious "leaking the secret", which prince would let Yinlin work for others?
Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty. Cao De has completely realized these eight words today.

"Brother is right, brother Yu just didn't expect that brother knew Yin Lin's identity early in the morning...and even came here to remind him." Cao De said with emotion.

Cao Cao took the initiative to pour two cups of tea and pushed one of them to Cao De's side.

"Brother De said there are three important matters? The first matter concerns Yinlin, what about the second and third matters? Is it also urgent?"

Oh... Cao De patted his forehead, but he didn't bother to drink, and hurriedly opened his mouth.

"The second one is also about Lu Yu. He... he wears a milky white jade pendant around his neck. The word 'auspicious' is engraved on that jade pendant..."

That's pretty much a clarification of another statement.

——Big brother, big brother... Lu Yu is your son!It is your eldest son who was born to a woman from Nadunqiu County and left behind among the people.

Here, Cao De spoke with great urgency... the whole person moved a little closer to Cao Cao's side. In his opinion, this matter was ten or a hundred times more important than Lu Yu being Yin Lin!
And the reaction of the eldest brother Cao Cao should also be that his complexion suddenly changed, and he jumped up!

But...to Cao De's surprise, Cao Cao's side sounded calm, and even...his eyes didn't change at all, and he didn't even blink.

This…

Cao De slapped his forehead suddenly, and then realized that he was so confused, he could see the origin of the milky white "auspicious" jade pendant that Lu Yu was wearing, how could his elder brother Cao Cao not see it?
and many more…

Cao De's eyes suddenly lifted up, meeting Cao Cao's eyes.

That's right, if... elder brother Cao Cao had recognized this jade pendant a long time ago, then... wouldn't elder brother have known about Lu Yu's life experience a long time ago, but why... why didn't he tell him until today?

Immediately, infinite curiosity arose in Cao De's heart.

"Big brother..."

Before he could speak, Cao Cao's words took the lead. "Brother De, I know what you want to ask. Why haven't I told 'Yu'er' his real background!"

"Why?" Cao De poked his head forward again, with question marks all over his forehead.

"The timing is not enough..." Cao Cao uttered these four words...

Of course, Cao De didn't know the pain in his heart, Yu'er was so outstanding, he wished to recognize him as soon as possible, but when he came, he asked Cao Xiu many times in a circumstantial way.

According to Cao Xiu's reply, Lu Yu still had great hatred for his biological father and forced him to recognize each other. Cao Cao was afraid that it would backfire...

after all…

Lu Yu is so alert and intelligent, and his brain can help Cao Ying fly thousands of miles into the air. If there is a conflict in his heart, Cao Ying will be defeated in a blink of an eye. Cao Cao dare not gamble!

In addition, there is still a little worry about Cao Cao...

And this point, through Cao Cao's face and tone, Cao De suddenly understood that the elder brother intended to cultivate Gong Ziyu to be the heir!

If this is not the case, then there is no need to hide it at all, just directly reveal the identity of his illegitimate son, but on the contrary... If you plan to make him the eldest son, then you have to think long-term.

In the Han Dynasty, in the big family, not to mention the illegitimate child, even the bastard was not qualified to be the heir.

Directly revealing Lu Yu's identity is equivalent to directly kicking him out of the ranks of successors. Under the law of etiquette... it is so ruthless.

Strictly speaking, Cao Cao has no legitimate son.

However, Cao Ang was born to Mrs. Liu, who died early, and Mrs. Ding raised him since he was a child, so he can be regarded as a legitimate son.

However, Lu Yu had lived among the people since he was a child, and it was not easy to obtain the status of a son-in-law. The big man attached great importance to etiquette.

Of course, Cao De thinks so, but it doesn't mean Cao Cao thinks so too...

Where did Cao Cao intend to make Lu Yu his son?

In his opinion, the position of the son of the world is simply tailor-made for "Yu'er", it must be him.

Cao Cao is an ambitious man, and he has very strict requirements on his heirs. What he needs is someone who can follow his footsteps and continue to grow this foundation.Rather than a lord of the mean, an heir who will lose his life and fight for his foundation... under the etiquette.

Just these, who can Cao Cao tell?

Now, facing Cao De, Cao Cao has opened his heart and met each other frankly.

"Brother, I shouldn't have asked this question originally, but... I couldn't help but ask my brother." Cao De's expression also became serious. "Big brother intends to cultivate Lu Yu to be his heir?"

Cao Cao didn't answer, but nodded slowly.

"Then..." Cao De continued to ask. "Brother is still worried about his origin?"

Cao Cao still didn't reply, but still nodded slightly.

"This is actually not difficult...Brother is a fan of the authorities!" Cao De stood up immediately, with a little certainty in his tone.

Easy?

Cao Cao was startled, "Brother De? What do you mean?"

Cao De blurted out: "Brother and Yuan Benchu ​​were playmates when they were young, how could they forget Yuan Benchu's background?"

Uh... Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment, and Cao De reminded him, Cao Cao suddenly remembered something.

When they were teenagers, both the Cao family and the Yuan family lived in Luoyang East Street, and they were door-to-door neighbors.

At that time, Yuan Shu was the son of the Yuan family, and people before and after referred to his elder brother Yuan Shao as "raised by a young lady", and often said in front of Yuan Shao that "he should not be polite to ordinary people".

The change between the Yuan family's concubine and the concubine, that is, the change of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's identities occurred before the Taixue.

You know, a place like Taixue can be called a direct train to official career, even if it is a famous family, the bastard is not qualified to enter.

But Yuan Shao, to be precise, it was Yuan Shao's father, Yuan Fengleng, who played a wave of extreme coquettish manipulations, forcibly washing Yuan Shao, who was a concubine, into the treatment of a concubine.

It was also because of this that Yuan Shu restrained himself a little. After growing up, Yuan Shao was qualified to successfully inherit a large amount of family fame!

Of course, Yuan Shu refused to accept it and always said bad things about him behind his back, so that the brothers broke up. This is another story.

Hiss... Cao Cao savored Cao De's words carefully, thinking a lot in his heart.

And Cao De's words came out one after another. "My elder brother told me how Yuan Shao changed from a concubine to a concubine. My elder brother won't forget it, right? Isn't it because of 'adoption'?"

That's right, both Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are the sons of Yuan Feng, Yuan Shao is a concubine, Yuan Shu is a descendant and his mother is a princess.

But Yuan Feng could see that the eldest brother Yuan Shao was more talented. In order to give him a good background, so that he could go to the imperial school and enter the official career, Yuan Feng adopted Yuan Shao to his brother Yuan Cheng as a wife...

The elder brother Yuan Cheng had no son, so Yuan Shao became the eldest son, who was already equal to Yuan Shu in terms of status.

But Yuan Cheng died early. After his death, Yuan Feng took Yuan Shao as his son again on the grounds that Yuan Cheng left his heir alone. After going around like this, Yuan Shao's status changed from a concubine to a concubine, and from a concubine to a concubine. eldest son.

This kind of extremely coquettish operation is as if a person was originally on the career establishment, and the salary of the career establishment must not be as good as that of the civil servant establishment, so he took the initiative to ask the grassroots to go to the villages and towns to train for a few years.

In this way, the identity will be transferred to the civil servant establishment, and when the time for experience is up, and then go back to the original unit, the identity will change from the career establishment to the civil servant establishment.

Not too precise, but the general idea is correct... Of course, for now, it is to encourage the grassroots to do practical things for the masses!

Having said that, the meaning of Cao De's words is already very clear.

Isn't Lu Yu an illegitimate child?

Bastards are not afraid!
...First adoptive, become Cao Cao's adoptive son as the 'dead brother', one more incense, and then Lu Yu becomes Cao De's direct son, and then adoptive back, this is not equivalent to Cao Cao's direct son.

If you refer to Lu Yu's age, there is one more word among the sons-the eldest son!

Of course, this set of operations is no problem, what needs to be paid attention to is the attitude of other people, or the attitude of the Cao and Xiahou clansmen, as long as they think this is no problem, then it will be no problem.

On the contrary, if the clansmen do not support it, it must be difficult!

And if he wants the support of his clansmen, then Lu Yu has to make more contributions, establish his own power, and become an indispensable existence in Cao Ying...

In this way, Cao Cao has the final say on how to operate at that time!
Hiss... Cao Cao thought for a long time, finally, his eyes opened in vain, and he smiled...

"Hahaha...hahaha..."

He smiled and patted Cao De on the shoulder. "Brother De, it's really as you said, the authorities are obsessed, hahaha, you can help brother Wei solve a big problem!"

Hehe...Is it a problem?

Cao De felt that this matter was actually not that difficult. With Lu Yu's intelligence and dexterity, and Cao Cao's secret support, it was almost a certainty that he would make more contributions and establish a large enough influence!
However, Cao De is a little embarrassed here...

After all, Lu Yu is the benefactor of the Cao clan. He originally regarded him as a benefactor, but now he can be the father of "Yin Lin" for a short time.

Think about it, there is still a little excitement!

"Hahaha…"

Cao De also laughed out loud...

In the remote camp, the pair of brothers smiled very happily.

correct…

Cao Cao suddenly remembered, what were the three things Dedi was talking about?Now, the first and second things have been said, and it also brought a lot of surprises, so what is the third thing?Guess there are still surprises?

"Brother De? What is the third thing you mentioned just now?" Cao Cao asked urgently...

Uh…

This suddenly made Cao De, who was smiling all the time, dumbfounded, "Ahem..." He cleared his throat, and was about to mention the unethical thing that was about to become an established fact.

And it's better not to blurt out...

As soon as he blurted out, Cao Cao was afraid that he would feel a biting chill immediately, the so-called-what the hell is "Surprise!
...
