Three Kingdoms: Jiuyuan Tiger

Chapter 468

Let's say that after Cao Song and his party left Xiapi, they headed straight for Changyi.

When the sun was setting, Cao Song poked his head out of the carriage and said to Zhang Kai, "I won't leave today, and I will continue on my way tomorrow."

Zhang Kai cupped his hands and said, "But according to Cao Taigong's orders."

Cao Song nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and Zhang Kai's respectful attitude made him very happy.

"Cao Taigong, do I need to help you set up camp?" Zhang Kai asked.

"You don't need to bother the general, I just ask my subordinates to do it." Cao Song shook his head.

"That's it, I will take my leave first!" Zhang Kai cupped his hands.

"Please, General." Cao Song slightly bowed his hands towards Zhang Kai.

Later, Cao Song sent people to find a place near a stream as a place to rest at night. After all, water is indispensable no matter what time of day.

What's more, it's scorching hot right now, Cao Song and his family members need to get some water to wash after walking for a day.

The servants and nurses were responsible for setting up tents, fetching wood for fire, and burying pots for cooking, while Cao Song washed his body with stream water under the service of his maidservants.

At the moment when the facekerchief soaked in cool stream water was wiped on his body, Cao Song couldn't help but let out a Shen Yin (river crab).

After washing his body, Cao Song put on a brocade robe and came to the bonfire that had already been lit, and simply told the servants what he was going to eat that night.

Then Cao Song came to the tent door to enjoy the shade. Two young maidservants fanned Cao Song behind him. Cao Song leaned back on the chair leisurely, closed his eyes and rested.

The summer night was sweltering, and the cicadas on the trees kept screaming tirelessly.

At this moment, Zhang Kai and some of his men sent some rabbits.

"Grandpa Cao, I just took this with my brothers and gave it to Grandpa to try it out." Zhang Kai, who was carrying the rabbit, said.

"It's so good! But the so-called 'come and don't reciprocate is indecent', it just so happens that the old man has several jars of good wine, how about a few glasses for you and me?" Cao Song stroked his beard.

"Then it's better to obey orders than to be respectful!" Zhang Kai laughed.

After a while, the rabbit meat on the bonfire exudes a tempting aroma.

After Cao Song opened the wine jar, the smell of meat and wine mixed together, very intoxicating!

"Grandpa, could it be that your wine is fine wine?" Zhang Kai asked in surprise.

"Exactly!" Cao Song said proudly.

"Grandpa is so skilled! It's very difficult to buy this fine nectar and jade liquid now, there is no way, even if you have money, you can't buy it!" Zhang Kai clicked his tongue.

"Old man, there are more than ten altars here, and you will bring two more altars when you return to the camp." Cao Song said.

"It's absolutely impossible! How dare I accept rewards for nothing?" Zhang Kai declined.

"The general's words are wrong. You escorted me all the way to Yanzhou. These jars of wine are my kindness. When I arrive in Yanzhou, my son Mengde will give you another generous gift." Cao Song stroked his beard.

"If that's the case, thank you grandpa!" Zhang Kai cupped his hands.

"Okay! This old man likes bold people, come, have some wine!" Cao Song raised his glass.

"Grandpa, please!" Zhang Kai quickly picked up his wine glass.

After drinking for three rounds, Cao Song's chatterbox opened.

"General, how long have you served under Tao Gongzu?" Cao Song asked.

"Oh, it's been a few years now. To be honest, I was forced to make a living and joined the Yellow Turban Army. Later, all the units of the Yellow Turban Army were wiped out one after another, so I transferred to Mr. Tao. Fortunately, Mr. Tao's heart was kind and he didn't care. Leave the former suspicion behind, otherwise I will be wandering all over the world!" Zhang Kai replied truthfully.

"Oh? The general still has such past events? Then Tao Gongzu is really magnanimous." Cao Song laughed.

"What the grandfather said is true." Zhang Kai laughed and laughed after hearing this, but he was a little unhappy in his heart.

I thought you, an old man, were a good person, but I didn't expect you to have the same face as those rotten scholars!
"I don't know what the general thinks about Confucianism? I admire Confucianism the most in my life. Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and others all have some friendship with the old man. If the general wants to study further, the old man can recommend it to the general." Cao Song said proudly .

Zhang Kai was even more annoyed when he heard this, don't you old man which pot you can't open and which pot you can't carry?I don't even know the words, you tell me about Confucianism?
"The grandpa Rong is born, I am not literate, and Confucianism is too far away for me." Zhang Kai said.

Hearing this, Cao Song was very disdainful, it turned out that he was a thief from the yellow scarf!

This Tao Qian really has no eyesight, and even used this person as a general!

But after being an official for many years, Cao Song would not be so stupid as to write his expression on his face. Cao Song still has this in the city.

Cao Song, who lost interest in talking, got up and said: "The old man is old and tired, so I'm going to rest now!" "

Why did Cao Song not wait to see Zhang Kai so much?One is because of Zhang Kai's bad background, that's all for a poor and humble background. Zhang Kai also voted for the Yellow Turban. Wasn't Cao Song's Taiwei lost because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion?
Although Cao Song didn't care much about this official position, he only stayed in the official position of Taiwei for less than half a year. As for the reason, the Yellow Turban Army is really to blame.

In addition, Cao Song is a descendant of the eunuch, so he has always hoped to improve his status. On this point, Cao Cao and Cao Song have the same goal.

Therefore, Cao Song admired Confucianism very much, and liked to communicate with the great Confucians of the time and discuss knowledge with them.

A yellow scarf thief like Zhang Kai who didn't even know a few words, Cao Song naturally didn't like him too much.

What's more, Cao Song didn't need to be kind to Zhang Kai, even if he slapped Zhang Kai, he had to accept it honestly!

There is no other reason. Cao Song has a good son. As the father of a great prince who can be ranked among the top in the world, Cao Song can do things from the heart.

Zhang Kai frowned when he heard this, but soon he recovered his normal expression, and cupped his hands at Cao Song, saying, "Send off the grandpa."

Cao Song said as he walked, "Cao Xu, bring two jars of wine for the general."

The old man behind Cao Song cupped his hands and said, "No!"

The old man named Cao Xu handed over two altars of fine nectar and jade liquid to Zhang Kai, and then left.

Looking at Cao Song, who is aloof and domineering, Zhang Kai couldn't help feeling an unknown fire in his heart.

Looking at the two altars of fine nectar and jade liquid in his hands, Zhang Kai even had the urge to slam them to the ground.

After a while, Zhang Kai got up silently and walked towards his camp.

Zhang Kai's camp and Cao Song's camp were not connected, and there was a distance of about half a mile between them.

After returning to the tent, Zhang Kai's subordinates were eating and drinking.

Most of the soldiers and horses led by Zhang Kai were his old troops, and many of them were the remnants of the Yellow Turbans who had followed Zhang Kai for many years.

In Xiapi City on weekdays, they must abide by the rules set by Tao Qian. Now that they are finally able to go out without restraint, they naturally have to indulge.

The bonfire was blazing, and a group of shirtless soldiers pushed cups and changed cups, having a great time.

Seeing Zhang Kai's figure, one of Zhang Kai's lieutenants hurried up to meet him.

"General, you are back!" The lieutenant took the wine jar from Zhang Kai's hands with great insight.

"Well, I'm back." Zhang Kai said with a blank expression.

　One more!Good morning buddies!I am still the old man who gets up early to code, and I will see if I can post it later in the second watch, and I will post it at night if I can't finish typing in a while.I got up too early today, and now I am in a daze. Recently, the biological clock has finished counting.
