My husband Zhuge Kongming

Cai Mao was extremely upset after sending away the talkers from various aristocratic families.

Who wouldn’t want to be the shepherd of a state?

If he becomes the state shepherd, has A Chu's help, and then becomes a hero in helping the Han Dynasty, the Cai family will skyrocket.

This kind of rapid rise and control of power is different from investing in Liu Bei, even though he has already made plans to invest in Liu Bei.

Damn old man Han Song!Cai Mao cursed and took a long time to calm down and think about the current situation.

The families in Jingzhou were anxious, and he could understand it, because he was anxious too.

What Cao Cao is doing now is really crazy, as if he is going to fight to the death, risking his hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

Such a person is not suitable to be the co-owner of the world.

After thinking about it, he got up and prepared to go to Huang Yueying's place.

To him, Huang Yueying is one of his own, she has a very close blood relationship with him, and she will definitely be on his side.

He understood this from the day Huang Yueying recommended him to become the shepherd of Jingzhou. But in the end, it was the son of Jiangdong Li'er who was not united, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

But he wouldn't care about this with a child, so he didn't say anything in front of Huang Yueying.

"Come here, prepare your horses and go to the female monarch's residence." After giving the order, he went to change his clothes before setting off.

At this time, Huang Yueying also knew the reactions of various aristocratic families, knew that they were anxious, and they all went to Cai Mao's house to discuss it. She knew that it would not take long to invite Liu Bei for the second time.

After settling the disciples, an attendant came to report that Cai Mao had arrived.

Huang Yueying was slightly surprised, but she still got up and went out to greet him. After all, the other person was her elder.

"Why is uncle here?" Huang Yueying asked with a smile when she saw Cai Mao, and then welcomed Cai Mao into the house.

Cai Mao sighed, followed Huang Yueying into the main hall, found a seat and sat down, and said, "Today, all the talkers gathered in my uncle's house. I want my uncle to discuss with Yidu and ask General Zuo to serve as the pastor of Jingzhou as soon as possible."

Huang Yueying laughed and looked at Cai Mao's worried face, "Then why is uncle worried?"

Cai Hao was not polite, "What the thief Cao did in the first month made my uncle understand that this person would never be sincere when he wanted to cooperate with my uncle. If he really cooperates with him, the Cai family will not be able to escape the genocide."

Huang Yueying raised her eyebrows slightly, the old uncle suddenly became enlightened.

"But my uncle still has some thoughts about the position of state pastor. If he cooperates with him, he can succeed as state pastor in an upright and strict manner. My uncle will definitely raise an army to fight against it." Cai Mao continued, " But among the aristocratic families like us in Jingzhou, only Xuande Gong is the only one who has eyes and minds. He never talks about recommending my uncle, but it is his uncle who does the work!"

Huang Yueying understood that Cai Mao had not yet given up his desire to be a shepherd in Jingzhou.

He wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of cooperating with Cao Cao to successfully ascend to the position of Zhou Mu, and also planned to resist Cao Cao to the end after ascending to the position of Zhou Mu.

The idea is always good, but when it comes time to implement it, it may not necessarily be the case. She knows Cai Mao's character very well. In everything, she puts the Cai family and herself first.

So, he pointed it out directly, "If Thief Cao really wanted to cooperate with Uncle Cong, why didn't he directly appoint Uncle Cong as the state shepherd when there was such a good opportunity after Brother Cong stepped down?"

Cai Mao was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed even more, and slowly, an angry look appeared in his eyes, "Thief Cao is bullying people too much!"

"Yes, what Cao Cao wants is just Jingzhou, not uncle." Huang Yueying continued, "He has never contacted uncle about this good opportunity, which shows that he just wants to see chaos in Jingzhou so that he can obtain this place. This person There is no sincerity in cooperation.”

Cai Mao nodded angrily.

"Furthermore, he was able to kill countless families who supported him in his war, and he was able to kill them without any regrets. This shows that he is cruel and ruthless. Does my uncle really think that by cooperating with him and succeeding as the shepherd of Jingzhou, he can sit back and relax?"

Cai Mao's face turned even uglier.

"No, he will definitely let uncle leave some clues for him to control." Huang Yueying sighed, "Achu only figured this out in the past few months."

Cai Mao continued to be silent. "Originally, at the debate meeting, Ah Chu thought that there would be no resistance to directly recommending my uncle, but he never thought that the old man Han Song would accuse him of not fulfilling his duties as a minister, which would directly cut off his career." Huang Yueying Helpless, say again,
"Then who is Han Song?

The famous people in the land of Jingchu would go to Xuchang in the early years to meet the emperor or pay homage to Cao Cao. When they came back, they would ask their uncle to send away their hostages.

And what about himself?Was named the Grand Administrator of Lingling!He has already fallen to Cao Cao!

How did uncle know that Han Song had no contact with the north these years?
Wasn't everything he said at the debate instigated by the North? "

"Damn it!" Cai Mao gritted his teeth, "Achu means that Cao Cao's statement about cooperating with uncle is false."

"Yes, he wants Jingzhou, not the Cai family. How could he sincerely cooperate with my uncle?" Huang Yueying shook her head, "Furthermore, even if my uncle really became the state shepherd, wiped out the rebels, and became the leader of the Han Dynasty, Meritorious minister, the status of the Cai family has also skyrocketed. How many years can the Cai family be kept wealthy? You must know that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger!"

Cai Mao's eyes widened. Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger?

"The higher the status and the greater the power, the harder it is to last." Seeing that Cai Mao finally listened, Huang Yueying breathed a sigh of relief, "Isn't it possible that I don't see He Jin, Shi Changshi, or Dong Zhuo?"

After saying this, Huang Yueying did not continue.

She hoped Cai Mao could listen to these words.

If Cai Mao couldn't listen, she could only reluctantly put Cai Mao in a safe place.

For a long time, Cai Hao recalled what he had learned over the years, and then he sighed and said, "What A Chu said is true. My uncle was confused by Cao Cao's remarks. When your grandfather was still alive, he used Lao Tzu's words advise my uncle, "No one in the world is soft and weak as water, and no one who attacks the strong can defeat it. Only because it cannot be easily overcome, and because it benefits all things without fighting, can it be said that it is as good as water."

Huang Yueying was slightly stunned. Cai Xi should have seen that Cai Mao had a strong enterprising spirit, so he gave such advice.

Now that Cai Mao can understand, it is best.

"Being an extremely popular minister may bring glory to the family for a while, but it also comes with great risks." Huang Yueying nodded, "My grandfather's words can be said to be true. The longevity of a family is like water, and it must benefit all people. Indisputable."

Cai Mao thought about Huang Yueying's words of benefiting all the people without fighting. He frowned but did not refute. After a while, he smiled and said, "Thanks to A Chu for opening the solution today, otherwise, my uncle would have resented each family."

"It will be good if uncle's knot is resolved." Huang Yueying also smiled, "However, Achu still has some suggestions for the development of our Cai family."

"Achu, there's no harm in speaking out."

"The Cai family's several improvements in strength are inseparable from the marriage of women."

The Cai family was originally a wealthy family in Xiangyang, and it was considered a wealthy one. Until Cai Xi's sister married Zhang Wen, the captain of the dynasty, the Cai family suddenly took a step up.

Cai Xi also gradually began to gain some fame, and grew into what is called a great person.

Then, the eldest daughter was married to Huang Chengyan, and the second daughter was married to Liu Biao, who rode into Jingzhou alone. At this point, the Cai family's status took another step forward.

Of course, this kind of thing happened all over the Han Dynasty, and what the Cai family did was not unusual, because everyone did it.

"But except for our ancestors, our Cai family now has no learned scholars." Huang Yueying sighed.

"Achu means to pay attention to the education within the clan?"

"Yes." Huang Yueying nodded, "Only if there are people who can support the clan from generation to generation, our clan will not be cut off."

Cai Mao agreed, and soon he thought of his two sons. It would be too difficult for the next generation of the Cai family to support them.

To be honest, the Cai family's current status is not only due to his father's actions, but also to Huang Yueying's contributions in recent years.

In other words, with Huang Yueying, the Cai family can become richer for another generation.

But what about after Huang Yueying?
Oh, I have to rely on Adou!
Cai Mao felt that the road in front of him was finally open.

Today's Chapter 1, as the title.
