Zhuge was reborn, killed the old thief Sima

Chapter 492 The winter of the 21st year of Jian'an (fourth update)
In the winter of the 21st year of Jian'an, the world was quiet but full of excitement.

The war in Nanzhong, the enlightenment and restoration of farming in Jingzhou, the farming in Jiaozhou, and the construction of Daxing in Jiangdong.
Many states and counties under Cao Mengde's rule were also in various chaos and peace.

Of course, the biggest chaos in the world is in Ye City.

At this time, before the Winter Festival of the 21st year of Jian'an, Cao Zhang, who once again went to northern Xinjiang to quell the chaos, also returned with his army. His majestic appearance made all the officials and generals in Ye City couldn't help but sigh for Cao Zhang. You are really lucky.

Others are lucky enough to have a good son.

It is rare in the world for someone like Sun Wentai to give birth to two good people.

But among the sons of Duke Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi are not ordinary people.

Especially Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang are amazingly gifted in both literature and martial arts, and people can't help but praise the heavens for pity on the Cao family.
It's just that compared to other people's excitement and boasting, Cao Zhang who returned to Yecheng had an uneasy face.

In Yanlinghou's mansion, Cao Zhang slowly removed his armor under Sun Shangxiang's service.

At the same time, the scars on his body were also revealed.

As a wife, Sun Shangxiang looks at her age is about the same as herself, but her husband who is already a famous hero in the world is also extraordinarily gentle and virtuous.

The unruliness in Jiangdong was not revealed at all.

Especially when her hands touched those scars and arrow wounds, her eyes were quite distressed.

"This time, you have more scars on your body. You have to be careful when you go out in the future."

"How can a general go out on an expedition and rush to kill himself, how can he shrink back and protect himself?" Cao Zhang looked at his wife, a rare smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "This scar is not a big deal, it did not hurt the vital part."

"You look like this, reminds me of eldest brother." Sun Shangxiang suddenly interrupted Cao Zhang's words, and there seemed to be some different emotions in his tone, "It was the same with eldest brother back then. He would always take the lead if there was no battle.

All the lieutenant generals in the army respected and loved him, but he was too impulsive and he died at the hands of that villain."

"Don't worry, my husband is not a reckless person." Cao Zhang looked at his wife and couldn't help but chuckle, "Now my husband doesn't go hunting much anymore.

Even if you go out, you will definitely bring many guards with you, and
Ah Cheng's incident also made her husband feel a little uneasy, but he would take good care of himself in the future. "

Cao Zhang couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when he talked about Xia Houcheng. As his best friend, he was also a lieutenant who had followed him in battles for many years.

Xia Houcheng has always been the general he relies on most!

At the same time, he was also the most important confidant around him. He always felt that he and Xia Houcheng would be able to traverse the northern border and take back bit by bit the land and cities that the Xianbei invaded and occupied the Han Dynasty.

But during this battle, Xia Houcheng stayed in the land beyond the Great Wall forever.

It was not that the Hu people were tough, but that year-round fighting and years of fatigue caused Xia Houcheng's old injuries to relapse. By the time Cao Zhang found a famous doctor, Xia Houcheng could no longer hold on.

In accordance with Xia Houcheng's last wish, he buried him at Yanmen Pass, so that he could see with his own eyes how he would take back this huge northern territory bit by bit in the future.

The death of Xia Houcheng was a big blow to Cao Zhang. This time before the winter festival, he rushed back to Yecheng because he heard some rumors about Yecheng.

At this time, Cao Zhang, who had changed into his regular clothes, did not go out directly. Instead, he stroked the sword that had just been hung up, feeling the sharp edges of the scabbard, and seemed to be able to feel the sharpness of the blade.

"This Ye city, is there any movement recently?"

Hearing Cao Zhang's sudden words, Sun Shangxiang, who had already given away the armor and other items, couldn't help but stiffen.

She seemed to feel her husband's inner emotions and was silently thinking about how to answer.Sun Shangxiang did not speak, and Cao Zhang did not continue to press for anything. He just continued to stroke the sword calmly, and the sound of nails scratching the scabbard was particularly harsh now.

"Hey." After letting out a long sigh, Sun Shangxiang turned around again and took off the sword, "Yecheng has indeed been uneasy recently.

After my husband came back, he only received an invitation from Mr. Cao Zhi, but not from Mr. Cao Pi.

It is because Master Cao Pi is now under house arrest in the mansion.

Now Wei Gong has issued an order that no one is allowed to see him, nor is he allowed to leave the house.

Even if his confidant wants to meet him, it is said that he can only live in the same cage with vegetables or even animals, so that he can have a small chance. "

"Confined?" Although Cao Zhang's expression did not change, his tone became a little heavier, "But what did eldest brother do wrong?"

"It's not like I did anything wrong. How can a woman like me know these things?
I just heard some things.

Mr. Cui Yan died in prison, and later Mr. Mao Jie was also imprisoned for some speech matters.

I heard there is also Xu Yi”

"Mao Xiaoxian is also in jail?" Cao Zhang was suddenly startled, and his expression finally changed this time, "Mao Xiaoxian has been with his father for many years. He is not only a veteran around his father, but also one of the most loyal people.

Why is he in jail? "

"How can I know this when I am in the mansion all day long?" Sun Shangxiang muttered first, and then continued, "According to some rumors below, it is because Mr. Mao Jie is dissatisfied that Cui Yan was convicted for his words.

I was even more dissatisfied that he died in prison and then said a few things that he shouldn't have said.
It seems to have something to do with natural disasters. It is said that it is a natural disaster because the law is too strict and involves the wives and children of criminals."

"It is unkind to be implicated, so what can I do if I just say a few words? Isn't it possible that I, the Great Wei, still don't let people speak?"

"What do you say to me, a woman, about this? I can't make the decision.

If I can make the decision, I don't need to listen to you talking endlessly here! "

After Sun Shangxiang finished speaking angrily, he threw the long sword in his hand on Cao Zhang, and ran out with a bit of anger.

“If you don’t want to be home, just leave!

After I got home, I didn't smile much. Instead, I kept saying this. Have I prepared the meal for you tonight? "

"If I wasn't prepared, would it be possible for you to starve me?"

"Didn't your brother invite you to come over for a banquet? Is it possible that you are planning to refuse him?"

“I just returned home and I really don’t want to talk nonsense to them.

A group of people had just finished their meal and began to feel sad all day long. They had no sense of manliness at all.

People like this should be sent to northern Xinjiang to enjoy the cold wind, so that they can wake up! "

After Cao Zhang finished speaking, he strode out directly with his sword in hand. Looking at Cao Zhang who walked directly out of the house, Sun Shangxiang gritted his teeth at this time.

"It looks like I won't be able to eat again tonight!"
