Han Dao world

Chapter 686
Cao Ang was sad.

Behind the generosity is helplessness.It's not that Cao Cao doesn't want to stay in the Central Plains, but he can't.

After being an eunuch, Yuan Shao's former subordinates are now burdened with the misdeeds of massacring the city. Cao Cao could not gain a foothold in the court and could only choose to self-exile.

He had indeed thought about pacifying the Qiang rebellion and conquering the western generals for the great Han, but now that Liangzhou was pacified, and even the Western Regions had candidates, Cao Cao could only go to farther and more difficult places.

Jiaozhou is far away in the south, serving in Jiaozhou is like exile, not to mention that most of Jiaozhou is covered with high mountains and dense forests, making combat extremely difficult.

Whether it is the five million Qin army conquering Nanyue or Ma Yuan conquering Jiaozhi, they are all close to death.

This trip may be life and death.

"Boy, why is this so?" Cao Cao patted Cao Ang on the shoulder. "Didn't you always say that the Son of Heaven has ambitions in all directions, but Nai Gong is just taking a step ahead and leading the way for the Son of Heaven."

"Yeah." Cao Ang laughed forcefully, raised his arms, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with the corner of his sleeve. "Let's go to see the emperor. Yang Gong and Zhao Gong seem to have left."

"Cai Lingshi is still here." Cao Cao turned his head and glanced, and said in a low voice, "Did the Son of Heaven not accept Cai Lingshi's entry into the palace? I think they are very close."

Cao Ang was taken aback. "Ah Weng, here is the way, you can't be presumptuous. Ling Shi is a role model for female officials. The emperor has high expectations for her. How can the love between men and women be comparable. Besides, there is no shortage of people in the palace of heaven. Those who want to enter the palace There are countless beauties, and the emperor is too troublesome."

"Really?" Cao Cao stared into the distance and looked again and again. "I don't think so."

"Aon!"

Seeing that Cao Ang was in a hurry and might change his face, Cao Cao shook his head. "Zixiu, don't blame me for talking too much. Only after meeting your mother, you know what talking too much is. Her biggest wish now is for you to marry a wife and have children, start a family and start a career. You say you are really useless, with so many women around you , there is no one you like?"

Cao Ang blushed.

Cao Cao thought for a while, and then said: "Do you think their background is not good? You really are, with our family background, do you still want to marry a woman from an aristocratic family? Even if you marry, you can..."

Cao Cao stopped suddenly, smacked his lips, and looked embarrassed.

Cao Ang pretended not to hear and looked away.

Mrs. Ding is a daughter of an aristocratic family, but after she married Cao Cao, the relationship between husband and wife was not harmonious.In her heart, Mrs. Ding has always looked down on Cao Cao and is not satisfied with this marriage.The relationship between the two was very weak, so the concubine Bian was very favored by Cao Cao, and she always handled affairs as the mistress.

This is Cao Cao's sincere words. If he is not his own son, but also the eldest son with high hopes, Cao Cao will never say it.

But he treated Mrs. Ding like his biological mother, so it was difficult for him to answer such words, so he could only pretend not to hear them.

"I heard that there are many women from Liangzhou's rich family among the female riders, so you don't like them?" Cao Cao took the initiative to change the subject. "Even if you don't have enough families to be a wife, it's okay to take concubines. You are not young anymore, there must be someone by your side. If not, you can choose one in the pass..."

"Thank you, Weng, for your concern. I understand." Cao Ang interrupted Cao Cao's rambling, signaling that Emperor Cao Cao was not far away, so he should pay attention to his words.

Cao Cao put away his old father's urging marriage, cleaned up his mood, and came to Liu Xie.

Liu Xie kept watching Cao Cao and his son talking, feeling a little indescribable in his heart.

In his previous life, he had a bad relationship with his father.In an era of fighting for fathers, his father was just an ordinary worker who was laid off in middle age, and it was very difficult to make a living by himself, which hardly helped him at all.The admiration for his father in childhood has turned into disgust in adulthood.

In this life, he has a father who is the emperor and loves him very much, but this father also failed to bring him any happiness, and even failed to protect his biological mother, making him an orphan at the age of nine.

Looking at Cao Cao and Cao Ang, he was inexplicably sympathetic and envious.

Cao Cao is also an unreliable father, but his love for Cao Ang is real.

Who said that a pity is not a husband?
"Your Majesty." Cao Cao came to him and bowed his hands in salute.

"Are you satisfied with Zixiu?" Liu Xie said with a smile, "Did the imperial court mislead my son?"

Cao Cao laughed. "Your Majesty promoted enlightenment, and the dog has benefited a lot. I am grateful."

"This is not my arrangement, but your shelter. Wang Jianshi taught him swordsmanship for your sake, and Jia Shizhong also liked his honesty, so he taught him the art of war."

Cao Cao laughed and said, "If His Majesty didn't think he was stupid and stayed by his side, how could he have such a chance."

Liu Xie did not continue this topic. "Have you become familiar with the terrain so quickly?"

"Cavalry exercises can only be arranged by Cao Chun, and you don't have to do it yourself."

"So confident?"

"It's an honor to be able to fight against wolf cavalry."

Liu Xie couldn't help laughing.Seeing that Cao Cao was so calm, he thought that Cao Cao had the ticket to win, but he just lay down and surrendered from the beginning.

Cao Cao also laughed, and said in a low voice: "Back then in Yanzhou, Cao Chun defeated Wenhou many times, and now it doesn't matter if he loses once. Even if he loses, he is still defeated by wolf cavalry, not by Wenhou."

Liu Xie's eyes flickered slightly. "Today's Marquis Wen is not the Marquis Wen of Puyang."

"Your Majesty's words are very true." Cao Cao said: "The Marquis Wen of Puyang is a lone wolf who travels thousands of miles alone, and he is the sworn enemy of my minister. Even though I am weak, I will fight him forever. Now Marquis Wen is your majesty's horse. The wolf dog devours the minions of the world. Even if I have the hatred of overthrowing the state, I will not fight against him."

Liu Xie secretly praised.

Although Lu Bu has improved a lot recently, compared with Cao Cao, there is still a big gap.

Look at people's attitude, how big is the pattern.

Liu Xie and Cao Cao chatted about the battle in Suiyang, and learned some details that were not mentioned in the military newspaper.Regarding Zhang Xi's remarks, Cao Cao did not mention a word.

Liu Xie saw it and didn't ask any more questions.

He knew what Cao Cao meant.Just now, I just showed my fangs to Yang Biao and others, telling them not to push people too much.Personally, he didn't intend to be disrespectful to the dead.

He himself has nothing to do with it, but his son Cao Ang will still be an official in the court.

Being presumptuous in front of Yang Biao and others, but not uttering a word behind Yang Biao and others' backs, Yang Biao and others will be more or less relieved when such a thing is heard, I'm sorry for going too far share.

"Yuan Shao withdrew his troops, Shandong Taiping, what's your plan? Is it in the court or in the opposition?"

"The minister is willing to be by the side."

"Which side do you want to be on?"

Cao Cao was silent for a moment. "As Your Majesty wishes."

Liu Xie smiled and looked at Guo Jia who was on the side. "If I'm right, your plan should be south, right?"

The corners of Guo Jia's mouth twitched lightly, and he slightly lowered his jaw. "Your Majesty's eyes are like lightning, and the world is clear in his chest. There are Liu Bei in the east, Yan Xing and Cheng Gongying in the west, Xun Gongda in the north, and only the south has no generals."

Liu Xie was noncommittal. "Has anyone ever told your fortune?"

"No."

"Then let me do the math for you. The south is humid and hot, and the jungle is full of miasma. If you go to the south, you may not live to be forty."

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, and then said: "There are still ten years to use, that's enough."
