Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 427 Concubine Cao's Concubine's Worry
The night breeze was blowing, but the banquet at the General's Mansion had just reached its climax.

Liu Bei chatted with Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu and others who hadn't seen each other for a long time, from the beginning of the banquet until now.

Both Jian Yong and Sun Qian were officials in Xuzhou, while Mi Zhu, under the instruction of Cao Cao, established the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce in Xuzhou and served as the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce.

They have now integrated themselves into their own work and life, gathering less and leaving more.

However, today they are more just lamenting about the past, but they are not dissatisfied with their current life.

"My lord, I have to say that the way the prime minister governs the people is really impressive." Jian Yong said with emotion.

Liu Bei glanced at Lu Yan who was leaving in a hurry with Chen Deng, but replied: "The people under the prime minister's rule can have everything they have today, in fact, it all comes from Mr. Lu."

Mi Zhu and Sun Qian nodded slightly, and agreed: "That's right. I used to think that Lu Hushi was a bit harsh on the family. But after I understood why the land should be managed by the government and not traded privately, I finally understood the truth behind it." .”

"The aristocratic family annexed the land, and the people could not make a living. This is the root cause of the outbreak of the Yellow Turban."

It seemed that the topic was a bit too serious, Jian Yong picked up the wine and said with a laugh: "My brother and I finally got together today, we shouldn't talk about political affairs.

Come, come, come, drink this cup, there are three more cups! "

"Dry!"

At the other table, Xia Houlan pulled Zhao Yun and asked quietly: "Zilong, if we fight back to Changshan, do you want to bring all the villagers to Chenliu?"

Zhao Yun obviously didn't think about these things Xia Houlan said, after a slight start, he replied: "I'm afraid that almost all those who are willing to come to Chenliu have come, and the rest are probably those who are unwilling to leave their hometown."

"That's right. The current Zhaojia Village in Chenliu County already has a population of over a hundred people. Almost all of them are willing to come."

After a pause, Xia Houlan continued to ask: "By the way, you know about Zhao Xue and Gan Ning, right?"

"I know, what's the matter?" Zhao Yun glanced at Xia Houlan and thought, "Why are Ziheng so many questions today?"

"Sir is now with Missy too"

Zhao Yun finally came to his senses and asked, "Did you fall in love with a girl? If so, I can ask Mr. to propose marriage for you."

After Xiahoulan made a small gesture, she said, "How can it be! I still want to practice my innate qi!"

Zhao Yun chuckled and didn't reply.

After a while, Xia Houlan asked again: "What about you, Zilong, do you have a fancy girl?"

Zhao Yun slowly put down the wine bowl in his hand, shook his head and said, "The world is still uncertain, why do you call yourself home?"

Xia Houlan sighed, and thought: "Could it be true that you really want to be a bachelor for the rest of your life?"

This topic is too serious and heavy, after Xia Houlan sighed, she drank alone
Jian'an four years, early August.

Cao Cao gave a big banquet to his ministers, and the banquet lasted for three days and three nights.

Afterwards, the imperial court formulated the merits of each person, and began to reward them according to their merits.

Xu You, who surrendered, unexpectedly won the first victory in the battle of Guandu within reason.

After all, Xu You played a vital role whether it was "offering advice" to attack Wuchao or persuading Zhang He and others to surrender.

But Xu You is not as proud of his achievements as in history.

After all, he was forced to come here by Cao Cao's alienation plan. Although Cao Cao, Lu Yan and others did not point it out, it does not mean that Xu You is not afraid.

When Zhang He and Gao Lan were under Yuan Shao in the past, although they had the title of one of the four court pillars in Hebei, they were actually only Zhonglang generals.

After surrendering to Cao Cao, Lao Cao waved his hand and gave Zhang He a general who showed his strength, and Gao Lan a general who showed his might, which was regarded as giving them enough attention.

But the happy situation didn't last long, that is, half a month after Cao Cao's banquet and rewards for his officials, a bad news came from the shadow guard who secretly "protected" the emperor Liu Xie. Guo Jia's hand.

Guo Jia looked serious, and found Lu Yan with a note in his hand, "Changsheng, I have received some bad news."

Lu Yan rarely saw Guo Jia being so serious and serious, and asked, "What happened?"

Guo Jia handed the note in his hand to Lu Yan, then lowered his voice and said, "Concubine Cao, you are pregnant."

Lu Yan read the note calmly, and then under the internal force, the note instantly turned into powder.

"Who else knows about this?"

"Except for the imperial doctor in the palace who diagnosed Concubine Cao, and the shadow guard who first discovered the abnormality, no one else knows."

After deliberating for a while, Guo Jia still expressed his worries: "If Concubine Cao gives birth to a baby boy, I'm afraid."

Although the words were not finished, Lu Yan knew what Guo Jia meant.

If Liu Xie had no prince, then after Cao Cao's death, his son would have a high probability of becoming emperor.

But if Liu Xie has a prince, and he is also a prince who is blood related to the Cao family, the situation here is quite complicated.

One side is a grandson, the other side is a son;

Nephew on one side, uncle on the other
Although there is a high probability that the throne will be in the pocket of the old Cao family, the question is, will there be a human tragedy for them because of the throne?
Although Cao Ang has a lenient temper, he is Cao Cao's son after all.

Cao Ang has never been relentless when killing people on the battlefield, and the guards around him are once extremely vicious death row prisoners. If anyone really thinks that Cao Ang is easy to bully, his ending will definitely be very miserable.

In the future, if there is a dispute over the throne.
Guo Jia seemed to have smelled a strong smell of blood, his handsome brows were tightly knit together, and he said in a cold tone: "Otherwise, secretly order the imperial doctor to drink it for Concubine Cao."

Although Guo Jia's suggestion was the most effective and direct, Lu Yan felt that it was too cruel for Liu Xie, Concubine Cao and the unformed baby.

Guo Jia saw that Lu Yan couldn't bear it, and Guo Jia said anxiously: "Changsheng! Now is not the time for women's benevolence. Your kindness at the moment will only cause more people to be injured and bleed in the future!"

Seeing that Lu Yan was still silent, Guo Jia gritted his teeth and said, "Leave this matter alone and leave it to me!"

After speaking, Guo Jia turned around and was about to leave, but Lu Yan finally spoke, "Feng Xiao! You are also the father of the child."

Guo Jia was startled suddenly, then trembled slightly
yes!Only being a parent knows what a child means to them.

If Guo Jia shouldered this responsibility alone, it is conceivable what kind of torture he will suffer in the future.

Lu Yan took two steps forward, came behind Guo Jia, and said, "This matter is not as thorough as it needs to be."

"Do you have any other options?" Guo Jia asked in a flat tone without turning around.

"Actually, if Concubine Cao gives birth to a daughter, then all your worries will be gone."

"Can it be a boy or a girl, who can be sure?"

Lu Yan suddenly grinned and said, "Outsiders, who knows whether Concubine Cao gave birth to a boy or a girl?"

"Huh?" Guo Jia turned around abruptly, as if he understood something, "What do you mean?"

"It doesn't matter if Concubine Cao gives birth to a boy or a girl, that child can only be a girl! If it doesn't work, we can replace the baby boy with a baby girl! I believe that no matter who it is, they will not object to this approach."

"It seems that it is feasible!" Guo Jia felt that there was a little room for manipulation.

"This matter needs to be discussed with Mr. Cao first."

"Okay, I'll go to Xuchang tomorrow." After Guo Jia finished speaking, she turned and left.

However, Lu Yan suddenly stopped Guo Jia again and said, "Feng Xiao, don't get involved too deeply, this is Duke Cao's family business after all."

Historically, because Yang Xiu got too involved in Cao Cao's family affairs, Cao Cao found a reason to slap him. Lu Yan didn't want Guo Jia to follow the same path.

Guo Jia's footsteps paused slightly, and then light words came into Lu Yan's ears: "I understand, I will stick to the bottom line."
