Three Kingdoms: Do you call this a weak counselor? !

Chapter 81: Lord, let’s talk about our own business. I call you father-in-law, and you call me brother.

Cao Cao and his men finally arrived at Fengqiu after hurriedly walking.

He was very familiar with Fengqiu. After all, this was not his first time here.

Without the need of anyone else to lead the way, we arrived at Fengqiu's Diannong Station with ease.

Before entering the farmhouse, I could smell the aroma of wine and meat.

I heard the laughter and laughter inside, and they drank and drank.

As soon as Cao Cao heard the sound and movement, he couldn't help showing some surprise on his face.

By the way, my grandpa has to come in person!
Face is great!
To be able to allow a being like Mr. Gao Jiu to entertain people in an unusual way, hold a banquet, and welcome him in a cleansing way!
Compared with the treatment given by Mr. Gao Jiu the last time I came here, this is really a huge difference.

While feeling a little emotional, he was also very happy that his father could be treated like this.

After all, this is his father.

Being treated so seriously by Zhang Cheng made him feel good.

Cao Cao glanced at Cao Chun beside him and said with a smile:
"It seems that we came at the right time, just in time for Mr. Gaojiu to entertain grandpa, and we can have a feast.

Just as I was running all the way, I was also hungry. "

Cao Chun smiled and said:
“It’s really just right.

It can be seen from this that the old lady just brought people to Fengqiu not long ago.

Mr. Gao Jiu is holding a banquet to entertain the old lady, which means that he has not officially adopted him as his adopted son.

The Lord came here at this time, and it was completely late in time.

And the thing that I worried about the most did not happen. "

Hearing what Cao Chun said, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile on his face and replied:
"Indeed, thanks to Zihe for reminding me this time.

If it hadn't been for Zihe's reminder, I wouldn't have known how much I would have been frightened along the way.

Everyone said that Zihe was good at leading cavalry in battle.

Move across the battlefield and attack.

Now it seems that Zihe is not only good at fighting, but also very good at planning and judging various things.

He is not just a general, he is both civil and military! "

Hearing Cao Cao praise him so much, a hearty smile appeared on Cao Chun's face.

Of course, this smile only appeared for a moment, and he restrained it a lot.

But judging from his language and demeanor. , obviously he was very grateful for Cao Cao's praise.

"Come on, let's go in and take part.

I have never had a feast to welcome the wind and cleanse the dust in Zhencheng before.

Now, let’s take advantage of this banquet hosted by Mr. Gao Jiu and come and wash away the dust! "

Cao Cao laughed and said, and walked in with Cao Chun.

At this time, in the large courtyard of the Yamen where Diannong worked, there was a scene of people drinking and eating, enjoying themselves.

The result is at this time.But when they saw Cao Cao suddenly coming, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

Then everyone reacted one after another and hurriedly paid tribute to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao laughed and signaled that everyone didn't need to be polite.

After he said this, he quickly came to Cao Song and saluted Cao Song respectfully.

When he met his father, he was very respectful.

Cao Song was a little surprised when he saw that Cao Cao was so fast and came to Fengqiu.

According to legend, shouldn’t Ah Ma still be in Zhencheng?
Why does it look like he has just arrived in Zhencheng and rushed all the way to Fengqiu in a dusty journey?

After feeling a little surprised, Cao Song quickly thought of the key to the matter.

He understood what was going on.

This must be because Ah Man did not see himself after returning to Zhencheng.

Then after some inquiring, I found out what I wanted to do when I came to Fengqiu.

So I couldn’t wait to get here.

Ah Man understood that what he was doing was too important.

And he also agreed with what he did.

Afraid of missing out, I recruited Mr. Gaojiu as my adopted son.

That's why I rushed here in such a hurry.

As soon as he thought of this, the smile on Cao Song's face became even stronger.

I think Ah Hao is a good kid and knows how to get things done.

I also felt that I had done a lot of help to Ah Ma this time.

It can be seen from Ah Ma's reaction.

Ah Man was very satisfied and happy with the fact that he accepted Mr. Gao as his adopted son this time.

Otherwise, how could he come here so quickly to celebrate this matter?
Thinking of this, he became even more happy.

"Amao, you came at the right time, just in time for dinner.

Come on, come and take a seat first, the banquet has just begun, it’s time to eat more.

There are two dishes here, cooked by Gao Jiu himself, and they taste great. "

Upon hearing what Cao Song said, Cao Cao became even more cheerful.

As soon as you arrive, you can eat meals cooked by Mr. Gaojiu himself.

This is undoubtedly the most gratifying thing for him who is hungry.

Cao Cao felt that he was extremely lucky when he came to Fengqiu this time.

What worried him most was that his father adopted Mr. Gaojiu as his adopted son, but it didn't happen.

As soon as he arrived, he met his father and was treated so seriously by Mr. Gao Jiu.

And you can eat the food cooked by Mr. Gaojiu right away.

This is really a great thing.

This is really a good thing for him.

Immediately, he said yes repeatedly, indicating that he was also hungry.

Next, you can have a good taste of Mr. Gaojiu's craftsmanship.

He also said that when he went on an expedition this time, he didn't know how long he had missed Mr. Gao Jiu's cooking skills.

Now I can finally have a full meal.

After saying these words, Cao Cao did not move his chopsticks immediately.

Because Zhang Cheng had already come to him and presented him with a gift.

Cao Cao looked at Zhang Cheng as if he were an old father-in-law looking at his son-in-law. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him.

The more I read, the more I felt that I really wanted to take someone like Mr. Gao Jiu as my son-in-law.

He reached out and took Zhang Cheng’s hand and said:
"Mr. Gaojiu, it's really thanks to you this time.

If Mr. Gao Jiu hadn't stepped forward at the critical moment, turned the tide and stabilized the situation in Yanzhou.

And with his own power, he abruptly changed the situation in Yanzhou. This time Yanzhou was really going to be killed by Zhang Miao, Chen Gong and other thieves.

And the good situation I have achieved in Xuzhou will be discarded and I will return to rescue Yanzhou.

Running back and forth, his strength must be greatly damaged.

And in Xuzhou, it was also because of the strategy Mr. Gao Jiu gave me.

Let me implement benevolent government and treat the people well, so that I can be so popular in Xuzhou.

Only by advancing so quickly can Xuzhou be completely defeated!
Mr. Gao Jiu deserves the first credit this time.

I am really lucky to have Mr. Gao Jiu, Cao Mengde! "

Cao Cao's words were true and sincere.

Zhang Cheng shook his head and said modestly:
"Lord, it doesn't have to be like this. It's just some things that are within your duties and should be done."

When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately smiled.

have a look!Mr. Gaojiu is Mr. Gaojiu!
He speaks so modestly.

He has made such a great contribution and is so humble.

If this were applied to an average person, their tail would be raised no matter how high!

As for Cao Song, the smile on his face became even brighter when he heard what Zhang Cheng said was his duty and what he should do.

He laughed and said:
"Gaojiu is right. This is indeed what Gaojiu is bound to do and should do."

When Cao Cao heard what Cao Song said, he was stunned.

Why was his father speaking so poorly today?

What happened?

Cao Song smiled and said:
"From now on, Mr. Gao Jiu will be a member of our Cao family.

Everything he did was also working hard for himself.

We are all one family, so why speak two different languages?
If you are too polite, it will appear harsh. "

When Cao Cao heard Cao Song's words, he was stunned for a moment.

He immediately realized that this must be his father, and he had already determined in his heart that Zhang Cheng was his adopted son.

Although now, he has not yet put this matter into action.

But between words, he had already begun to treat Mr. Gao Jiu as his adopted son.

Cao Cao still doesn't think that Cao Song has adopted Zhang Cheng as his adopted son.

After all, based on the judgments he and Cao Chun made, the scene he saw in front of him was his grandfather, who had just arrived in Fengqiu not long ago.

Mr. Gao Jiu is holding a reception banquet for his grandpa to entertain his grandpa.

As for adopting Mr. Gaojiu as his adopted son, it must be done with great fanfare.

Go back to Zhencheng and have a good time.

Cao Cao's mind was spinning, and he felt that he might be able to take this opportunity to explain some things.

It's just a good time to cut it off first and tell it later, to be the first to speak out about it.

In this way, he can block all the words that his grandfather said about accepting Mr. Gaojiu as his adopted son, so that he can't say anything.

After all, I had announced in advance that I would take Mr. Gao as my son-in-law.

In this case, my grandpa will become Mr. Gaojiu's grandpa.

If he had announced it first, then even if grandpa wanted to become an adopted son first, he would never say it again!
Grandpa's plan can only come to nothing.

In this way, this matter can be carried out simply and neatly.

There is no need to waste any more words and do all kinds of ideological work for my grandpa.

In an instant, there were many thoughts spinning in Cao Cao's mind.

He quickly thought about it several times, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this thing was feasible and that he should do it.

Then he followed Cao Song's words and said:
“Yes, yes, Grandpa is right.

I made a mistake. We are indeed one family and we shouldn’t speak the same language! "

When Cao Song heard this, he was impressed by Cao Cao's kindness.

And the smile on his face was so happy and sincere.

It became more and more certain at that moment. Ah Man was very satisfied with the fact that he had adopted Mr. Gao Jiu as his adopted son.

Otherwise, he would never say such a thing.

But what Cao Cao said next really stunned Cao Song.

Cao Cao continued:
"Grandpa, you are absolutely right, one family does not speak two languages.

So I plan to marry my daughter to Mr. Gao Jiu.

Let Mr. Gaojiu become my son-in-law. In this way, wouldn't we become a real family?
It turns out that grandpa and I had already thought of going together.

Otherwise, how could Grandpa say such things as a family? "

Cao Cao said such words in public so that more people could hear him.

Let my grandpa have no room for regret.

So he deliberately raised his voice and said it very loudly.

In his opinion, this would make it impossible for Mr. Gao Jiu to refuse.

He was also able to completely block his grandfather's idea of ​​taking Mr. Gaojiu as his adopted son.

After all, I have already said this in public.

No matter what happens, Mr. Gaojiu cannot refuse himself.

As for my grandfather, even if he wanted to make a fortune, he would be his adopted son first.

After what he had done, he could only kill those thoughts completely.

After Cao Cao announced the news, everyone present was instantly stunned.

The eyes looking at Cao Cao became dull for a moment.

The originally lively atmosphere suddenly seemed extraordinarily quiet.

Everyone's hearts are filled with incomparable weirdness.

This... what's the situation?
What do Cao Song and Cao Cao, father and son, want to do?
Mr. Cao has just adopted Mr. Gao Jiu as his adopted son.

Are you holding a banquet to celebrate here now?

How come after Cao Cao came here, without saying a word, he directly announced in a high profile that he would accept Mr. Gao Jiu as his son-in-law.

This... what's the situation? !

The father and son are having a lot of fun!

Why do you suddenly feel that this relationship has become so messy?
Cao Song was also completely stunned.

Looking at Cao Cao, he looked very confused.

What's the situation? !

Why did Ah Ma say this in public?

On my side, I have already adopted Mr. Gao Jiu as my adopted son.

Here, he said in public that he wanted to marry his daughter to Mr. Gao Jiu?
Let Mr. Gaojiu become his son-in-law?
Didn't Ah Ma already know that he was going to adopt Mr. Gao Jiu as his adopted son?
This time he led his troops and returned from the expedition.

There was no time to stay longer in Zhencheng, so we sent him all the way to Fengqiu.

Isn't it because I am worried about missing out and accepts my husband as my adopted son?

At this important moment, do you want to come over to witness?

How...how did it suddenly become that he wanted to take a son-in-law?

Even for people like Cao Song, who had been a Taiwei.

Now they are all confused by this sudden situation.

I feel confused.

too messy!
What exactly is going on?

While feeling a little confused, he quickly thought about the causes and consequences of the matter.

Later, Cao Song realized that there must have been a huge misunderstanding.

And he has already thought about it.

I now understand why my son, Ah Ma, has to announce this matter in front of the public.

This is most likely because Ah Man feels that he has not adopted Mr. Gao Jiu as his adopted son.

So I wanted to use this method to kill first and then play.

He directly blocked all his words so that he could not speak.

He still knows a lot about his son.

I know he is a filial son.

If he had not adopted Mr. Gao Jiu as his adopted son, it would be understandable for him to do so now, and it could be said to be very effective.

After Ah Ma announced in public that he would accept Gao Jiu as his son-in-law.

Then I can't open this door no matter what, and then accept Gao as my adopted son.

But... But it happened to be that on my side, Gao had already been adopted as his adopted son!

Under such circumstances, he announced in public that he would accept Mr. Gao Jiu as his son-in-law.

This...this matter is really a big deal!

Not only were everyone confused, Zhang Cheng was also a little confused now.

I wonder what father and son Cao Cao and Cao Song are playing now?
Why did someone come here and use all kinds of tricks to make him his adopted son?

Then he accepted himself as his adopted son, and Cao Cao came over to accept him as his son-in-law.

What's the situation?
What's going on with the father and son?
Why couldn't we have communicated earlier? !

And Cao Mengde, since you are planning to marry your daughter to me, why can't you run faster?

Thinking of this, Zhang Chengcheng felt very distressed and regretful.

If I had known that Cao Cao would come later and ask for him to be his son-in-law.

Then even if he let Cao De hold his legs and cry to death, he would never let go and recognize Cao Song as his adoptive father.

loss!What a big loss, this time it’s really a blood loss!
Cao Cao stood here and took in all the changes in the atmosphere.

He saw the surprised looks that everyone looked at him, as well as the extremely complicated look in his father's eyes.

In response, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile proudly, feeling very proud.

I am very proud of this operation of my own.

My grandpa never thought that he would use such a move!
He used a surprise to win and snatched his adopted son away!

And everyone present was absolutely stunned by Mr. Gaojiu's good luck and his own courage!
Yes!

No one would have thought that with his current status.

He wanted to marry his daughter, but he announced it directly in front of everyone!
I didn't even find any matchmakers or anything like that.

Putting himself in his shoes, Cao Cao felt that if he were these people, he would be shocked by his bold decision.

At the same time, I will also envy Mr. Gao Jiu's good luck.

Steady!

This time, things are definitely stable!
Mr. Gaojiu will definitely become his son-in-law, he is not running away!
Cao Cao's mood suddenly became extremely comfortable.

so far so good.

This time.Although things are more tortuous.

But in the end, he had a better move and defeated his grandfather's army at the last critical moment.

He successfully made Mr. Gao Jiu his son-in-law.

I didn't let that regrettable thing happen.

"Aha, that... that, isn't this a bit..."

Cao Song finally came back to his senses from the chaos, and said with a stuttering voice, wanting to explain things to Cao Cao.

Seeing this, Cao Cao became more and more certain that he had succeeded in robbing his old father.

Otherwise, his old father would never be like this.

He suppressed the joy in his heart, took a step forward, and said seriously:
"Grandpa, I know what you want to say.

I thought my move was a bit abrupt and too sudden.

But what I want to tell you is that this is not abrupt or sudden at all.

Relying on the various achievements made by Mr. Gao Jiu.

Mr. Gaojiu can definitely afford it.

With Mr. Gaojiu's age, he also has Mr. Gaojiu's talent.

He is more than enough for my daughter, and he is an ideal son-in-law! "

Cao Cao was thoroughly prepared, blocking his grandfather's words and making this matter a reality.

"Ama, it's not like this, it's not like this, something is wrong..."

Cao Song said anxiously.

Cao Cao thought.My grandpa is already in this situation, and he still wants to struggle again, unwilling to give up and accept Gao as his adopted son.

But he obviously couldn't let his grandfather say this, so he immediately said:

"Grandpa, I know you are very excited right now, but please don't get excited yet.

This is settled.

Mr. Gaojiu is a perfect match for my daughter.

This is a match made in heaven, a match sent from heaven, a match made in heaven and on earth. "

Cao Song finally couldn't bear it anymore. He stretched out a hand to cover Cao Cao's mouth as he kept talking. He looked at Cao Cao and said:
"What you said is correct. It is not impossible for Mr. Gao Jiu to become your son-in-law.

But Mr. Gao Jiu is already my adopted son! "

Hearing Cao Song's words, Cao Cao, who was originally thinking about how to prevent his grandfather from getting too excited and accept the fact that Mr. Gao Jiu was successfully intercepted in front of him, was stunned. stunned.

His eyes were widened, and his mind was very confused.

"You...what did you say?"

After he was stunned for a moment, he quickly pulled Cao Song's hand away from his mouth and looked at him to ask.

Because he was so excited, the tone of his voice changed a bit.

Cao Song said helplessly:

"I mean, Gao is already my adopted son.

Now, Gao is your brother! "

After saying that, he stretched out his other hand, pulled Zhang Cheng over, looked at Cao Cao and said:
"Come on, please call me brother."

Cao Cao suddenly felt as if he had been struck by five thunders, and his whole body was in bad shape.

what's the situation? !

This actually...has actually adopted Mr. Gao Jiu as his adopted son.

Why are you so fast?
Cao Song said:
"It is true that he has been adopted as his adopted son.

The current banquet is held to celebrate my adoption as my adopted son. "

When Cao Cao heard this, he became even more stunned.

This... What is this all about!

From the beginning of co-authorship, I misunderstood.

It turns out... this was actually a banquet held to celebrate Mr. Gao Jiu's adoption as his adopted son, not a banquet to welcome the emperor.

It’s not that my grandpa has a good face and acts with a sense of ritual.

Even if Mr. Gao Jiu is recognized as his adopted son, does it have to be officially announced with a grand banquet held by Zhen Cheng?
It's not that my grandpa can't stand the bumps in the carriage and can't move too fast on the road.

Calculating the time at this time, I have just arrived at Fengqiu, and it has not been long since I met Mr. Gaojiu.

It's not too late to say something?

Cao Cao, a heroic figure, was completely confused by this sudden situation, and his head was buzzing!
With these thoughts in mind, he turned to look at Cao Chun, who was advising him.

If it weren't for Cao Chun, he would have given himself such an idea long ago.After a very reasonable analysis, I will never slow down on the road.

He will definitely rush towards Fengqiu as fast as possible.

Then there is a great possibility that this matter can be completely stopped before it happens.

But now... now after a lot of delays, such an irreparable situation has occurred!
Cao Chun was also stunned at this time, completely confused by this sudden incident.

He really didn't expect that Cao Song's behavior this time would be so abnormal.

After feeling his brother's gaze on him.

Cao Chun looked a little embarrassed.

After coughing, he silently turned his head to the side and looked at the sky.

I think the sky today is so blue!

Cao Cao was still confused.

No wonder, after he announced in public that he would accept Mr. Gao Jiu as his son-in-law.

When everyone looks at me, they will look like this, and the atmosphere will look so weird.

No wonder, both his grandfather and Mr. Gao Jiu looked shocked.

At the time, I thought that they were shocked by his generosity and boldness.

Who would have thought that it was his own grandfather who took the lead and adopted Mr. Gaojiu as his adopted son.

When they see themselves that way, they are definitely not touched by their own grandeur.

Thinking of this, even a shameless person like Cao Cao felt extremely embarrassed.

I feel like I want to find a place to crawl into.

After working together for a long time, the clown turned out to be myself!

He performed a joke in front of everyone.

silence!

Deathly silence!

After the truth of the matter was revealed, neither Cao Song, Cao Cao, nor the others knew what to say.

The scene seemed extremely quiet for a moment.

After a while, Cao Cao took the lead and said:

"Well, how about we go to the room to talk about this matter and see how to solve it.

Let’s stop eating at the banquet and let them eat on their own. "

With such a big incident happening, Cao Song was naturally not in the mood to eat it.

Soon, Cao Cao and Zhang Cheng came to the room to discuss the matter.

At this time, there were only three of them left in the room.

Originally, when Cao Cao returned with his troops this time, Zhang Cheng once again made such great contributions.

Cao Cao didn't see his father for a long time.

This time, they returned full of glory. When the three of them met, it was bound to be an extremely joyful and happy reunion.

But now, after this sudden scene.

When the three of them gathered together, they always felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

No matter how you look at it, how strange it is.

Both Cao Song and Cao Cao are very eloquent beings.

Under normal circumstances, there will never be a moment of silence.

But now, with the two of them and Zhang Cheng, no one is speechless.

The atmosphere in the room seemed very strange, and I didn't know what to say.

After a while, Zhang Cheng looked at Cao Song, who was silent, and then at Cao Cao.

After thinking about it, I thought it would be better to break the silence first...

Outside the government office, everyone looked a little quiet for a moment as they watched Zhang Cheng, Cao Cao and Cao Song leave.

No one expected that such a outrageous thing would happen.

They were originally here, eating happily!

Who would have thought that not only did they have a feast, but they were given such a big melon to eat!

If you don't see it with your own eyes, who can believe it?

Of course, while being surprised, everyone also felt extremely envious of Zhang Cheng.

After all, he was valued by both Cao Song and Cao Cao.

The father and son of the Cao family competed to make him a member of the Cao family.

Looking at the whole world, this matter is only on Zhang Cheng's side.

It is simply impossible for others to have this kind of treatment.

Of course, envy is envy, but they know this and can only envy.

Because except for Mr. Gaojiu, no one else should even think about it.

It is simply impossible.

Only Mr. Gao Jiu could be treated like this by Cao Song and Cao Cao.

Of course, while feeling shocked, many people are also curious.

Next, Cao Song, Cao Cao, and Mr. Gao Jiu will say something inside.

Discuss what kind of result to resolve this matter.

After all, this matter is an extremely difficult problem for them.

What if Cao Song and Cao Cao had not made their respective thoughts known to the public?

So in private, the father and son communicate with each other, no matter what they do, it is easy to discuss.

But the key is that now, Mr. Cao has adopted Mr. Gao Jiu as his adopted son.

As a result, Cao Cao, who realized it later, announced in a very high-profile manner that he would marry his daughter to Mr. Gao Jiu.

And said so many words of praise for Mr. Gao Jiu.

They even said it was a match made in heaven and everything.

At this moment, it became more embarrassing.

They started thinking one after another to see if there could be a better way to solve this matter.

As a result, no matter what they thought, they found this matter difficult to handle.

But it is precisely because it is difficult to handle that it can arouse the desire of many people to eat melons.

At this time, many people don’t even feel good about eating.

Many people were quietly paying attention to the closed door.

I want to know what kind of result they can negotiate in the end.

It can be said that it is human nature to eat melons, especially big melons.

"Cough cough~"

Zhang Cheng coughed twice, and the attention of Cao Cao and Cao Song was attracted.

He cleared his throat and said:
"Well, foster father, lord, now this thing has happened.

We always have to find a way to solve the problem.

It won't work if we just drag it on like this. We need to face it bravely. "

Zhang Cheng is the language of organization here.

Cao Song and Cao Cao's father and son looked at each other, and they both saw some embarrassment and other meanings in each other's eyes.

After looking at each other, they all turned their attention to Zhang Cheng, waiting for Zhang Cheng to continue.

Zhang Chengdao:
"That...this matter is indeed a misunderstanding.

The main misunderstanding is that the old lady and the lord did not discuss or communicate with each other in private.

No one knew that the other party would do such a thing.

So eventually there was this misunderstanding.

This matter is not easy to solve.

Because now, the old lady has regarded me as his adopted son.

And my lord announced in such a high-profile manner that he wanted me to become his son-in-law.

The words have already been said, so it is really difficult to regret it again.

This is where the difficulty lies. "

After hearing what Zhang Cheng said, Cao Cao and Cao Song both nodded in agreement.

I think what Zhang Cheng said is very reasonable, and it is indeed the case.

This is where the difficulty lies.

Even smart people like him were at a loss of ideas and were stunned by such unexpected situations.

"Well, I thought about it a lot.

An immature idea gradually came into my mind.

Maybe this problem can be solved.

How about... how about you two listen to me and take a look at my immature idea? "

Zhang Chengwang said to the two of them.

After hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cao Cao and Cao Song immediately became energetic.

Zhang Cheng nodded quickly and said quickly.

The two of them are at this time.I have absolutely no idea about this matter.

Now after hearing what Zhang Cheng said, I had an immature idea.

It was as if I had grasped a life-saving straw.

The two of them were very interested in Zhang Cheng's immature idea.

After all, Zhang Cheng's wisdom has been proven through various major events.

He is indeed very talented and can often make the impossible possible.

They felt that they had all encountered an eternal problem.

But this matter is extremely difficult for them.

For people like Mr. Zhang Cheng, this may not be a problem at all.

Both Cao Cao and Cao Cao felt that Zhang Cheng's immature thoughts were modest words.

In fact, his ideas are very mature.

As soon as you open your mouth, you will definitely be able to come up with a very clever solution.

Seeing this, Zhang Cheng no longer hesitated. He coughed again, cleared his throat and said:

"Well, now I have become the old lady's adopted son.

A banquet was even prepared, which many people already knew.

Therefore, this matter is difficult to handle, and we cannot let the old lady announce again that I, the adopted son, will be given away.

In this case, wouldn't it mean that the old lady went back on her word?
It doesn’t look good on anyone. "

Cao Song nodded when he heard this, saying that Zhang Cheng was right.

Zhang Cheng looked at Cao Cao again and said:

"But now, my lord, you have announced in public that you will marry your daughter to me.

Everyone has heard this, and it is also difficult to take it back.

How can people be dishonest in what they say and when water is thrown out?
Especially for a person with the Lord's status, it is even more important to keep your word, keep your promise, and keep your promise.

If you say something in public and then take it back, it will do great damage to the lord's prestige. "

When Cao Cao heard this, he nodded in agreement, feeling that it made sense.

Zhang Cheng simply spoke to his heart.

"Then what should we do next?"

Cao Cao and Cao Song both looked at Zhang Cheng.

Waiting for Zhang Cheng to express his brilliant idea.

Seeing this, Zhang Cheng said:

"So in my opinion, it's better for us to take a step back on this matter."

What does it mean to each take a step back?
Could it be that Zhang Cheng wanted to be neither his adopted son nor his son-in-law?
Don’t you want to be part of the Cao family?

This thought instantly appeared in the minds of Cao Cao and Cao Song.

No!

Absolutely not!

How could Zhang Cheng not become a member of the Cao family?

But what Zhang Cheng said next made them realize that they were overthinking.

Zhang Cheng didn't mean that at all.

What Zhang Cheng said means that everyone takes a step back.

"No, let's talk about it separately from now on."

To each his own, what does that mean?
Zhang Cheng's sudden words made Cao Cao and Cao Song unable to react for a moment.

Zhang Cheng coughed again and said seriously:
"That means...from now on, I will still be Old Madam Cao's adopted son, and I will always call Old Madam Cao my adopted father.

Then when I meet my lord, I will call you my father-in-law.

When we are together with our foster father, the lord is my elder brother and I am the lord's good brother.

When the old lady is not present, that subordinate will be the good son-in-law of his father-in-law.

From now on, I am both the old lady's adopted son and your lord's son-in-law. Isn't it the best of both worlds?
There is no need to take back what the lord and the old lady have done or what they have said.

The lord and the old lady will no longer break their trust and can block the mouths of people in the world. "

Cao Cao and Cao Song, who had been here waiting for Zhang Cheng to come up with some good ideas, were a little confused when they heard Zhang Cheng's words.

Good guy!
What a good guy!
It turned out to be this idea.

Is this what you call an immature idea?

This is really immature!
"No! No! Absolutely not!"

After being stunned for a moment, Cao Song and Cao Cao people shook their heads.

Those who refused responded faster than the other, and were more resolute than the other.

The look in Zhang Cheng's eyes changed for a moment.

Good guy, you really dare to say that!

What is this like?

This is what Zhang Cheng dared to say, and it was fine after he said it.

If another person had said this here, whether it was Cao Song or Cao Cao, he would definitely be miserable.

Let him understand that he can eat randomly but not talk randomly.

"Gaojiu, you kid, you have a good idea!
It's not enough to occupy both ends, but I want to occupy both ends.

This is really not possible! "

Cao Song spoke.Looking at Zhang Cheng, he said this.

Although Cao Song and Cao Cao both felt that Zhang Cheng's words were outrageous.

When they heard what Zhang Cheng said, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, they had some worries before.

Zhang Cheng wanted to take the opportunity to be neither an adopted son nor a son-in-law, so that they would not be involved with the Cao family.

This is definitely not what they want to see.

Now Mr. Gaojiu said that he wanted to be both an adopted son and a son-in-law.

Although it is quite outrageous, it also shows from one aspect that Mr. Gao Jiu did not refuse to become their Cao family, on the contrary, he was very happy.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have said that.

This matter is what they care about most.

"Gao, the idea you proposed is really not feasible. How can we do this?

If we do this, where will Meng De and I put our faces in the future?

Our Cao family.Aren't you going to be laughed at by others?

If you think about it again, is there any other way to get the best of both worlds? "

When Zhang Cheng heard that his idea was rejected, he shook his head and said:

“I don’t have the best of both worlds.

Just now, this is the best of both worlds that I can think of.

If it was the old lady, neither the master nor the other would agree.

That can only be discussed, which one of you two should take a step back.

Either I become the old lady's adopted son, or I become the lord's son-in-law. I can only choose one. "

After saying this, Zhang Cheng said again:
"Otherwise... adoptive father, our father-son relationship will be severed right now.

Now you and I are no longer father and son.

What do you think about me being the lord's son-in-law? "

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cao Cao was very happy.

But Cao Song was a little unhappy in his heart.

Seeing this, Zhang Cheng thought for a while, then continued to enlighten Cao Song while the iron was hot:

"Old lady, think about it, if we actually talk about it.

It would be better for me to be your lord's son-in-law than to be your adopted son.

In this way, everyone becomes more like a family.

After all, a son-in-law is half a son!
Moreover, as an adopted son, although he is a father and son in name, he is not a real father and son after all.

Just like Lu Bu and Ding Yuan, Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo.

Being a son-in-law is different.

Become a son-in-law.That is a real family, the kind where the bones are broken and the tendons are connected, not a family in name only.

Not to mention the rest, you can know just by looking at Dong Zhuo's fate.

Lu Bu, the adopted son, personally beheaded Dong Zhuo.

But Dong Zhuo's two sons-in-law, Niu Fu and Li Ru, could be said to be loyal to Dong Zhuo until their death.

This shows the difference between an adopted son and a son-in-law. "

In other words, Zhang Cheng is actually quite happy to be Cao Cao's son-in-law.

After all, Cao Cao's daughter is quite capable.

He just said that we all have separate opinions. In fact, this cannot be taken seriously. He said it deliberately.

The reason why I said that was because I wanted to use this matter to further stimulate Cao Cao and Cao Song.

Let them understand that in today's situation, there is no good way to have the best of both worlds.

The two of them can only give in.

And he naturally hoped that Cao Song would give in.

Because he was more interested in becoming Cao Cao's son-in-law than becoming Cao Song's adopted son.

Zhang Cheng then analyzed:
“And, beyond that, there’s a longer-term thing that you don’t think about.

That is, I am still young, less than 20 years old, and not much older than Young Master Ang.

To put it bluntly, I will definitely walk behind the master from now on.

At that time, I will become the lord's son-in-law, and I will be a peer with Mr. Ang. It is only natural that I assist him.

But after becoming your adopted son, he will become Mr. Ang’s uncle, which will cause a lot of inconvenience. "

Zhang became able to become Cao Cao's son-in-law. It can be said that he went to great lengths to come up with all the possibilities.

I have no other meaning, I simply think that being a son-in-law is good, better than being an adopted son.

He definitely wasn't trying to get Cao Cao's daughter.

However, after hearing Zhang Cheng's words, both Cao Song and Cao Cao's eyes changed somewhat when they looked at him.

Good guy, do you ever speak like that?

How come your little mouth is as sweet as honey?
Also take Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu as examples.

He also said that he had adopted his adopted son and killed Dong Zhuo, his adopted father.

what do you mean?
Is it polite for you to speak like this?

As for Cao Cao, he just felt that Zhang Cheng's words did not suit his ears.

What does it mean that I will definitely go ahead of you?

You are still young and strong, and you have said these words.

Although it's the truth, you can't just say it, right?
At this moment, Cao Song and Cao Cao's father and son looked at Zhang Cheng with surprisingly consistent eyes, and they both couldn't help but glare at him.

But after Zhang Cheng’s talk.

Cao Song also felt that Zhang Cheng's words made sense.

He also gave up the idea of ​​continuing to adopt Zhang as his adopted son.

Then he sighed and said:
“Okay, let’s do it like this!
I'm getting old anyway, so I don't need this bit of face anymore.

Next, he announced to everyone that he would terminate the father-son relationship with Gao Jiu and make Gao Jiu his son-in-law. "

After saying that, he held Zhang Cheng's hand, looking a little reluctant to let go.

Who would have thought that the relationship between father and son would be severed after they had been together for less than half a day.

But the good thing is.If you can't be a father and son, you can still be a grandfather and grandson.

Thinking of this, Cao Song felt much better.

After finalizing this matter, both Cao Cao and Cao Song breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, I actually achieved one of my previous wishes.

From now on, I will finally no longer be alone.

I just don’t know which daughter Cao Cao is planning to betroth to him?

So Zhang Cheng quickly asked Cao Cao.

"Father-in-law, I don't know who you plan to betroth to your son-in-law as your wife."

Zhang Chengcheng is such a direct person, especially when it comes to this life-long event, his directness is even more powerful.

This sentence from my father-in-law made Cao Song and Cao Cao a little confused...
