Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Chapter 262 Preliminary Intentions of the Right Wife Candidate! [Dazhang asks for a subscription and asks for a monthly ticket]

With Cao Ang's greeting.

Zhen Mi, who was hiding by the door and poking her head around, hesitated for a few seconds, but still chose to muster up her courage, and ran in quickly, carrying her little skirt.

Originally, he planned to quickly hide behind his sister as usual.

Just raising her head slightly, she met her sister Zhen Jiang's encouraging eyes. After thinking for a while, Zhen Mi stopped her footsteps.

Instead, he walked in small steps, came to Cao Ang with a nimble figure, and then bowed decently.

"Mi met the general!"

The voice was full of childishness, full of childishness and cuteness, but the words that came out of her mouth seemed extremely mature and formal.

Combining two very different meanings.

Full of complex and contradictory senses.

Cao Ang didn't like this feeling very much.

An eight-year-old girl, in terms of words and deeds, behaves no differently from her teenage sister, which does not seem to be a good thing.

So after a little pause.

Cao Ang pretended to let out a long sigh.

"Ugh!"

"How long has it been since Quliang County was in the past, and I didn't expect it to become unfamiliar all of a sudden."

"Brother who agreed, but now he has become a general again. Ah Mi is so used to hurting people's hearts!"

No matter how mature Zhen Mi behaved.

There is also a lot of imitation in it.

Her nature is still based on the foundation of an eight-year-old girl.

So in the face of Cao Ang, a master of this way, how can he have much parry power?
Especially what Cao Ang said was right.

Back then in Quliang County, after experiencing the so-called lady affair, she and Cao Ang were still somewhat close, and they were indeed called "elder brother".

This time it is not advancing but retreating.

Therefore, Cao Ang's slightly complaining words made Zhen Mi feel somewhat embarrassed.

……

"Brother!"

After a moment of hesitation.

In the end, Zhen Mi chose to follow her own heart, raised her head, raised her delicate face, and called out to Cao Ang in a charming manner.

"That's right!"

Cao Ang readily agreed.

I habitually want to pinch the little face in front of me.

But as soon as she raised her hand, she suddenly thought that this little girl doesn't like other people's behavior, which will damage her demeanor as a "lady".

So it was quickly put down again.

But what Cao Ang never expected was that.

At this moment, Zhen Mi covered her face with her hands, covering her fair, tender and round face.

Then the voice murmured through the gap between his fingers and reached Cao Ang's ears.

"As long as you don't pinch your face!"

After being completely stunned for several seconds.

Cao Ang tentatively put his hand on Zhen Mi's small head, avoiding the left and right buns, and gently stroked the soft hair in the middle twice.

Immediately.

It was as if Zhen Mi had been absorbed by her soul.

The whole person narrowed his eyes slightly, like a docile and lovely cat being tickled by its owner.

Cao Ang: "Ah Wei is dead!"

……

Maybe there was a sister watching from the sidelines.

Zhen Mi was embarrassed to be patted by Cao Ang all the time.

So after making two moves, the little girl took two steps back, stopping Cao Ang's next move.

Naturally, Cao Ang would not force this.

Instead, the topic was changed smoothly.

Pointing to a volume of slips that Zhen Mi carried, he asked, "What is Ah Mi studying?"

I heard Cao Ang mention this matter.

Zhen Mi picked up the bamboo slips with both hands.

The second half was a statement, and half was a complaint: "It's "Cang Jie Pian". My sister said that I am such an old man, and I should know more words."

"But this article is too difficult. Except for the first two chapters, which can be read smoothly, every chapter after that has to be read."

"It's exhausting me!"

The so-called Cangjie Pian was compiled during the Qin and Han Dynasties to teach children how to read and write.

It was first created by Qin Xiang Li Si.

Afterwards, it was revised successively by Yang Xiong, Ban Chao, Jia Bian and others, and it was considered a very mature and high-level enlightenment reading in the Han Dynasty.

And that's why it's called high-level.

It is precisely because there are so many rare characters in it.

The first two chapters were okay, but from the second half of Chapter 3, the difficulty increased exponentially.

Even if Cao Ang is allowed to recognize it at this stage, he doesn't dare to pat his chest, and he is sure that he can pass a few tests.

……

That's why Zhen Mi said so.

Cao Ang smiled and comforted her, "My daughter's family should be more literate and read more books."

"However, research is by no means a one-day achievement, it depends on the accumulation of water dripping through stone, and it cannot be accomplished overnight, so there is no need to work too hard every day."

"Today I will be the master, I will give you half a day off, read it tomorrow, go play now!"

Surprise flashed across Zhen Mi's face, but out of caution, she still looked back at Zhen Jiang.

After seeing my sister nodding in agreement.

Only then did Zhen Mi cheer.

Then he said to the two in a sweet voice: "Thank you brother, and thank you sister, you are so kind!"

After the voice fell.

Zhen Mi ran out quickly, bouncing around, like a happy kitten.

Looking at the back of Zhen Mi going away.

Cao Ang couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

After such a back and forth, the next time I see myself, this little girl should be able to become a lot more intimate and warm.

Just when Cao Ang's thoughts were racing.

Suddenly, I heard Zhen Jiang's warm voice, like a river of spring water flowing quietly.

"The general seems to like Ami very much!"

……

"indeed so!"

Cao Ang nodded unabashedly.

But facing Zhen Jiang's gaze.

Cao Ang still explained a few sentences.

"I'm the eldest son of the family, and I also have a mother and sister. When I see A Mi, it's like seeing that little girl back then."

"That's why it's inevitable to be a little more pampered."

Zhen Jiang nodded slightly knowingly.

When she said that, she didn't have any doubts about Cao Ang. On the contrary, Cao Ang loved her younger sister. This matter was good news for the family.

So after a few casual chats.

Zhen Jiang skipped this matter.

On the contrary, he bowed slightly to Cao Ang lukewarmly, and then asked with some doubts.

"Please forgive me for being presumptuous. I don't know if the general is here this time, but what orders do you have?"

Cao Ang shook his head.

While slightly bowing to Zhen Jiang.

"I can't talk about instructions, but today I invited Wende to meet at the mansion, and I learned from him that he showed his power in the prefect's mansion a few days ago, and the credit was all due to Miss Zhen Jiang."

"Next time, I was a little curious, and secondly, I wanted to thank the girl, so I decided to pay a visit in person. I hope I forgive the abruptness!"

This matter is slightly consistent with the guess in my heart.

Zhen Jiang felt a little more at ease.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, he replied in a humble tone.

"The general is really serious. It's just a concubine's humble opinion. How can I be so solemn as a general."

……

Nodding casually.

He didn't take Zhen Jiang's humble words to heart.

On the contrary, Cao Ang turned his body slightly, and then asked Zhen Jiang in a leisurely tone.

"Miss Zhen Jiang, can you tell me what you thought at the time, how you were so sure that I would not abandon Wei Jun, and let my younger brother stand up and speak out?"

Zhen Jiang couldn't help but feel a slight movement in his heart.

This way of asking questions.

It gave people the feeling that Cao Ang was testing her, and if she answered well, she would be able to get great points in Cao Ang's heart.

Although I don't know where this test comes from.

But in any case, Cao Ang's attitude is related to the prosperity of the Zhen family, and he will do everything possible to make Cao Ang recognize the Zhen family more and continue to increase its weight.

This is something every family member should do.

Therefore, after careful consideration of the words and the preparation of the draft.

Zhen Jiang bowed slightly to Cao Ang.

Come narrating.

……

"I have been in my boudoir for a long time, and I don't know much about political planning, marching and fighting, and I don't know how the general will deal with the menacing black bandits."

"But I only know one thing!"

"That is, based on the general's past experience, we can know that you are definitely not a person who will retreat easily!"

Speaking of it.

Zhen Jiang paused for a while.

Then she heard her slightly gasping voice.

Immediately after that, the text will follow.

"The general has great ambitions and a high vision. Your ambition should be the sea of ​​stars, serve the world, and stand out from the crowd."

"There are some thieves in this area. How can they have the qualifications to make you shrink back? They are not even worthy of being your opponents. They are nothing more than a few stones to step up."

"It is precisely because of these predictions that I can be sure that you will come back, General. Facts have proved that my predictions are not bad!"

Maybe the more you talk, the more emotional you get.

When speaking to the next few paragraphs.

Zhen Jiang even waved his right hand lightly, and his eyes, which were already condensed with rain and dew, were even more like waves in the blue sea at this moment, lighting up a bright arc.

It gave people a feeling that everything she said came from the heart, not flattery.

……

hiss!
Cao Ang couldn't help but secretly took a deep breath.

This damn charm!
If you blow it down, it will really float!
But at this point, Cao Ang is completely sure of one thing, that is, the woman in front of him is indeed quite capable.

If the above words are from the heart, it means that you have foresight, until we are a person with great plans and lofty aspirations.

If he deliberately said this to cater to himself, then Zhen Jiang looked so impassioned and his eyes glowed.

It is also enough to prove that his pretending skills are not low.

Can have this level.

It can definitely be called a hero of the female middle school!
I thought so in my heart.

Cao Ang did not express his opinion immediately.

Instead, Ruo continued to ask with deep meaning: "If I have not returned this time, then all the speculations you have made, all the efforts you have made, will not be in vain?"

Zhen Jiang returned to his former lukewarm appearance, and smiled at Cao Ang.

"Actually, ever since my concubine moved to live in Yecheng with my younger sister, it means that the Zhen family and General Cao are already closely related."

"General, if you can stand taller, our Zhen family will grow stronger, and vice versa. The fate of our whole family is tied to you, general."

"Thinking about it this way, no matter whether you come back on time, general, our Zhen family must come forward. Even if you don't come back, the Zhen family has nothing to lose. Why not do it?"

Speaking of it.

Zhen Jiang added something as if sighing.

"Actually, the concubine originally planned to come out in person and tell everyone what I said to A Yao."

"It's just that I am a woman, and there is nothing special about my identity. It is somewhat inconvenient, so I can only give up in the end."

……

"The status is ordinary..."

Cao Ang repeated.

A long silence followed.

In the whole hall, there was only the sound of Cao Ang tapping lightly on the table with his fingers.

Other than that, nothing else.

From Zhen Jiang's point of view, Cao Ang is frowning at this moment, his eyes are full of thoughts, and he doesn't know what he is thinking about.

After such a long time.

Cao Ang said lightly.

"As far as I know, the members of the Ling clan have not yet moved here. Only you and A Mi are the forerunners, so staying in this city will inevitably be lonely."

"If you are interested in it on weekdays, you might as well come to the prefect's mansion for a walk. I'm still very interested in chatting with you, Miss Zhen Jiang, and teaching A Mi to read and write poetry!"

"Uh-huh?"

Hearing this all of a sudden.

Zhen Jiang was stunned for a moment.

What is the meaning of these words?
He suddenly asked himself to take his sister to visit, and chatted with him...

Could it be... General Cao is interested in me?
No wonder Zhen Jiang thought so.

It is indeed the information revealed in Cao Ang's words, some of which are too specific.

And as soon as this idea popped up.

Immediately, layers of blush appeared on Zhen Jiang's cheeks, and even the delicate earlobes, and the white and tender nape of her neck were all reflecting a faint pink at this moment.

……

Although Cao Ang's statement did not clearly indicate what he was going to do.

But it is often this kind of slightly reserved language.

Even more imaginative.

In particular, Zhen Jiang still remembers that before he set off from Quliang County, his elder brother Zhen Yan once taught and hinted to him.

One point is clearly stated.

That is the reason why she was sent to Yecheng this time, the purpose is to let her get closer to General Cao Angcao.

The first is to bring the relationship closer.

The next step is to work hard to enter the house and directly sit on the position of General Cao's wife who has been vacant.

Although the Zhen family is now bound to General Cao, the relationship is not close enough.

Unbundling is possible at any time.

Therefore, it is necessary to rely on this method to make the two families become closely related in the true sense.

These are the elder brother's exhortations to her.

Zhen Jiang never forgot.

It's just that after arriving in Yecheng, Cao Ang has been floating outside and has no chance to make contact.

And what she never expected.

General Cao actually took the initiative to invite her this time, and he didn't need to think of any excuses to make contact.

Thinking of this.

Zhen Jiang couldn't help bowing to Cao Ang submissively.

"The general invites you kindly, how can I refuse, I will walk around more in the future!"

There was a slight jitter in the response.

Every word is full of trills.

No matter how gentle and generous she is on weekdays, she is dignified and full of ladylike style.

When faced with this kind of thing.

It's impossible to stay calm anymore!

After all, after all, she is just a woman who has not left the cabinet, not some scheming political animal.

in matters involving men and women.

There should be no less shyness.

…………

After getting Zhen Jiang's affirmative answer.

Cao Ang nodded slightly.

He smiled gently.

"Then I will wait for you at the mansion!"

The reason why Cao Ang made such a move.

Naturally, there is a deep meaning.

In fact, Cao Ang already had a vague plan after thinking about Zhen Jiang before.

That is to put this woman on the position of his wife, so that the mansion, which has been lacking a real mistress for a long time, will be completely filled.

And the reason why the person was chosen to be Zhen Jiang.

One is her mind and heart.

As the number of people in the back house increases, there must be someone who has the ability to control other people, and who can handle the scale and know how to measure.

Only in this way can the stability and harmony of the back house be guaranteed.

If the main wife is a person like Cai Yan who is not ordinary, immersed in her own small world.

I'm afraid that even if the backyard is overturned, Cai Yan can still read a book leisurely, or even if she wants to take care of it, she can't find any good way.

Cao Ang didn't want to go out by himself. In the days when he couldn't control it, the harem would cause trouble every day.

Then how can he do big things outside?

Therefore, the position of mistress and main wife must be someone who has certain abilities and is good at dealing with these things. For the time being, Zhen Jiang is very suitable.

……

Besides that, there is another important point.

That is among the women around me.

Only Zhen Jiang and Cai Yan could be promoted to the position of main wife, both of whom were either from the poetry and book gentry family or from the old family.

The biggest difference between the two.

Because Cai Yong is still alive, the Cai family is still a relatively active force that cannot be ignored.

Especially the heirloom of poetry and books gave the Cai family a certain degree of independence.

Such a family that is still active can easily take advantage of the wind and evolve into a powerful relative.

And old families like the Zhen family have already declined.

Even though business is booming now, and business is done all over half of the north, strictly speaking, they are half completely dependent on themselves.

If Cao Ang is determined to attack.

It only needs to cut off the most important chains of the Zhen family from the political level, and the vitality of this huge business family will be damaged by most of it.

Even abolished!

Even if such a family becomes a foreign relative, they will be able to firmly control it in their own hands in the future.

Comparing the two, the severity of the sentence should be determined.

It is not surprising to make such a choice.

……

In fact, if you choose the Zhen family.

Zhen Mi is not bad either.

But this girl is too young now.

It is impossible for Cao Ang to wait a few years.

In that case, even if he himself is not in a hurry, his father Cao Cao, his mother, Mrs. Ding, and even a group of civil servants and generals under his command may all have to get angry first.

The position of the main wife of the lord is vacant, and the legitimate son has not yet come out.

This means that in a power, there is a lack of existence that can inherit the cause. How can such a power be considered stable?

People's hearts are floating, this is definitely there!

So this option is preferred to be excluded.

As such.

Only Zhen Jiang was left as the most suitable candidate.

As for the rest, talk about it later!
of course.

With preliminary intentions, it doesn't mean that Cao Ang has identified Zhen Jiang, but she must.

This still needs to go through several steps.

Especially with parents.

How much to discuss and communicate.

But this matter is easy to handle.

After the Black Mountain bandits were dealt with and Yuan Shu who had gone north was repulsed, there was plenty of time to discuss.
