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

Chapter 5 The interests of the Cao family are above all else

Two hours later.

Located outside the Dongming Gate of the North Palace in Luoyang City, Cao Cao and his son greeted everyone with enthusiasm and laughter. After bowing their hands and saying goodbye to everyone, they got on their horses and left with a group of guards in the palace.

After walking for a certain distance, Cao Ang rubbed his sore cheek vigorously after guessing that he was out of the sight of everyone in front of the palace gate.

"Father, it turns out that welcoming and seeing off is also a hard job. When I see everyone, I have to smile and bow my hands in salute. Now my face is frozen with laughter."

Hearing his son's teasing words, Cao Cao couldn't help laughing, and then said jokingly.

"Just be content with it, kid. In this huge city of Luoyang, how many people want to welcome and see them off are not qualified."

"Didn't you see that your uncle was standing in the crowd at first, but in the past, our father and I are still behind him."

Hearing what his father said, Cao Ang was also very happy. Of course, Yuan Shao could only stand in the crowd. After all, he was the big boss of the Yuan family in front of him, Yuan Kui, the current imperial governor.

The people mentioned above are not ordinary people, nor are they low-ranking officials in the court.

Instead, during the second half of the journey to send the emperor back to the palace, he gradually met high-ranking officials and princes and ministers.

Including the famous Shangshu Lu Zhi, who is a leading figure in Confucianism in the world today, and he is also quite capable in fighting, capable of writing and martial arts, and is well-known all over the world.

Grand Tutor Yuan Kui, Taizhong doctor Yang Biao, needless to say, these two are representatives of the two top aristocratic families.

In addition, there are high-ranking officials and ministers at the level similar to Situ Wangyun.

Although these characters are not unattainable, they all have their own identities and airs.

In the past, if Cao Cao wanted to communicate with them, he had to first hand over invitations to the mansion, and then see if he was in the mood. If he was lucky, he might be able to go in and have a cup of tea, but if nothing happened, he would be politely persuaded soon. retreat.

Today's performance is all based on the face of Cao Cao and his son's first contribution to saving the emperor by welcoming the emperor back.

Of course, this is enough, at least in Cao Ang's view, the situation has been opened.

……

Just as Cao Ang began to think about the next plan.

Cao Cao suddenly slowed down his horse, moved a little closer to Cao Ang, and then asked in a dazed manner.

"Ang'er, earlier when you scolded Dong Zhuo and forced him to dismount and salute the emperor, were you so sure that Dong Zhuo would admit defeat in the end, instead of bursting out in anger and chopping my father and son into pieces?"

I was a little surprised that my father hadn't digested this matter yet, but Cao Ang still explained patiently.

"If only us father and son were present, the child would never dare to act like this. If Dong Zhuo's anger was aroused, he might really dig a hole and bury him alive."

"But apart from our father and son, His Majesty and King Chen Liu are watching from the sidelines. Dong Zhuo is really going to attack us. Could it be possible that he can kill His Majesty?"

"Another one is that Dong Zhuo was at the Xiliang border for a long time. All his understanding of the situation in the court came from his eyes and ears in Luoyang, which can be said to be quite vague. Before he knew the specific situation, Dong Zhuo would not act rashly. Kill anyone who is famous and powerful."

"Under such a premise, the boy accuses Dong Zhuo with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, and refute him in the name of righteousness. Apart from dismounting obediently, what can he do to me?"

A little frivolous, but reasonable.

Cao Cao had to admit that his son was right.

Although Dong Zhuo has a strong army and powerful horses, he is also arrogant and arrogant.

But he is not stupid!

How can it be a stupid person to be able to thrive on the Han and Qiang borders and stand still for so many years.

Before he could control the situation, Dong Zhuo would restrain himself no matter how arrogant he was. This must be the reason why he finally kowtowed to the emperor at the side of the road.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help turning his eyes to Cao Ang's handsome face, and the four words quietly appeared in his mind.

Insight into the world!

I have been an official in the court for a long time. Although I am not a center of power, I have been taught by my father Cao Song since I was a child, and I still know a thing or two about politics.

Now it seems that he only knows a thing or two.

My son is under 20 years old, has never been an official for a day, and I have never taught him these things, but he can connect these things together and analyze them comprehensively.

Such a big picture...

Zixiu is not only a thousand-mile horse, but also a Qilin!

If you can see the data, at this time, Cao Cao's head should be constantly floating "+1+1+1" satisfaction.

After feeling emotionally for a while, Cao Cao suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked.

"Then Ang'er, why did you do this? Is it just to kill Dong Zhuo's arrogance and show off his prestige?"

Cao Ang thought about it carefully, then shook his head.

"Kill his arrogance, this is indeed the result I want, but it is not the purpose."

"My purpose is that after this dismounting, Dong Zhuo will be able to hold back his scruples and restrain himself a little in Luoyang City in the future, which can be regarded as retaining more majesty for the Han family surnamed Liu."

Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment.

He really didn't think that it would be the reason, but wouldn't it be inconsistent?

Cao Cao couldn't help but put out the doubts in his heart.

"Before on Beiman Mountain, you had a disdainful attitude towards His Majesty, but now you want to preserve some majesty for the royal family."

"Tell my father honestly, what exactly do you think of the imperial court?"

Cao Cao's words revealed his entanglement, and he couldn't wait to figure out his son's position.

Is it consistent with his own ambition and loyal to the court, or is he rebellious and unwilling to be subordinated to others?
However, Cao Ang just smiled brightly, and said a little chicly: "I don't have any opinions on the court. Whether to obey the court or rebel, in fact, it only depends on our Cao family's own interests."

"The growth of the Cao family needs to oppose the imperial court, and the child will stand on the opposite side of the imperial court, otherwise, he will support the rule of the Han Dynasty."

After finishing speaking, Cao Ang patted his war horse, accelerated and galloped towards home, leaving Cao Cao alone in place.

After a while, Cao Cao suddenly smiled in relief.

"fair enough!"

…………

Cao's house.

The father and son, who had just been majestic and reprimanded Fang Qiu, now faced Madam Ding's complaints, but they could only accept the criticism honestly.

"It's agreed that I will be back at Mao at the latest. Let's see what time it is now. Do you know how anxious I am waiting alone in the house?"

"My good husband, you are capable now. Not to mention risking yourself to go to the battlefield, you have to drag Ang'er along with you. Is it for nothing or something?"

"What are you laughing at? Mother didn't say you were proud, did she? Now that you have grown up, your wings are hardened. You only know how to listen to your father, but you don't know how to feel sorry for mother."

Rapid as a storm.

The father and son could only be submissive, laughing and shouting "calm down" and "I know I'm wrong".
