Cao Thief

Chapter 160 Not avenging this revenge is not a gentleman (4+1)

Diao Chan, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, a respectable woman who sacrificed her life to serve the country.

At that time, Dong Zhuo took power, and the world was in chaos.The princes joined forces to crusade, the wise men offered their advice, and the fierce generals sacrificed their lives, but they failed to eradicate Dong Zhuo.And a weak woman, who presented her innocence, dealt with Lv Bu and Dong Zhuo, separated the two with the trick of beauty, and finally eliminated Dong Zhuo.

Wonderful story, respectable woman!
But in the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, there is no record about Diaochan.

It's just that Diaochan is the title of a female official in the Han Dynasty, not a person's name.Is there really such a strange woman?Cao Peng didn't know.

However, Mr. Cai Dongfan, the author of the later "Chinese Historical Romance", confirmed the existence of Diao Chan in a very positive tone.

Situ Wangyun failed in all his plans, so he sent Diao Chan, who had no fists and no courage, to use his voice and color as a spear, and Fan Neng killed the culprit.Pink Hero, what a formidable one.And said: For the sake of a country, the way is flexible.All the loyal ministers and righteous men in the world can't get rid of Dong Zhuo, but Diao Chan can get rid of him alone. How can this still be viewed in a pessimistic way and despise the other Shu?Diao Chan, Diao Chan, my love, the most important!

Mr. Cai Dongfan also did not make it clear whether there was really a woman named Diao Chan who eradicated Dong Zhuo.

But he believed that there was indeed such a strange woman who stepped forward to destroy Dong Zhuo when the heroes of the world were at a loss.

Perhaps, it is precisely because of what the Lu men in the world failed to do, but was made by a little woman.

Chen Shou, who wrote "Three Kingdoms", either intentionally or unintentionally ignored the existence of such a woman, considering the face of a big man.

For Diao Chan, it doesn't matter whether it's an official position or a person's name.

The important thing is that in the long river of history, such a strange woman did exist... This is enough!
Cao Peng couldn't help being awed, and even more ashamed of the little dirty thoughts before.He should be damned for actually desecrating a strange woman.

----------------------

Putting on a woman's attire, Qi'er combed Cao Peng into a ponytail again, put away Cao Peng's clothes, wrapped them up, and walked out of the bathroom.

At this time, there was no trace of anyone in the courtyard.

On the other hand, in the opposite wing, laughter could be heard from time to time, presumably Lu Bu's daughter was having dinner with Diao Chan.

Cao Peng already knew that the young general who stopped Lu Bu in the restaurant that day was the girl who was laughing in that room.

She should be called... Lu Lingqi?

I don't know if she is the girl who was carried on Lu Bu's body in history, trying to break out of the Cao Wei alliance and send her to Yuan Shu's son.Hearing her silver bell-like laughter, Cao Peng suddenly had a conflict: I will repay this kindness sooner or later.

The banquet in the hall was over, and the guests dispersed in groups.

However, the small town was still heavily guarded. Cao Peng followed Qi'er out of the small town gate, and saw two familiar people standing together.

One is Lu Ji who blocked him before.

The other, even more familiar, is Liu Bei's adviser, Sun Gan.

"Qi'er, do you want to go out?"

Lu Ji greeted him from a distance.

Qi'er kept a straight face, took Cao Peng's hand, and left, giving Lu Ji a lot of boredom.

"Sister Qi'er, then Lu Ji just hurt me, why..."

"It's not because of that bitch!" Qi'er gritted her teeth and said, "The one who disliked Junhou at the beginning was captured by the Xianbei people and gave birth to that beard. After Junhou rescued her, the woman pestered Junhou, Hu'er was also asked to change her surname to Lu. The eldest lady was generous and didn't care about it. After the young lady married, the woman didn't know what was good and bad, and repeatedly competed with the young lady... Hu'er was even more ambitious and wanted to inherit the monarch. The two of his mother and son are here, causing troubles a lot. It's because the young lady is kind, and she doesn't want to argue with his mother and son. But the more this is the case, the more arrogant his mother and son are. This time, he set such a trap, and his heart is to be punished , his heart can be punished!"

Cao Peng heard a general idea, but he couldn't say anything.

"Hu'er, are you familiar with Liu Yuzhou?"

Liu Bei is now an official worshiping the shepherd of Yuzhou, so he was called Liu Yuzhou at that time.

Qi'er turned his head and glanced at Sun Gan, showing contempt, "That's not clear, but every time Liu Bei sends someone over, he will give Hu'er a gift. That Sun Gongyou, don't look at his honest face." Like, actually...very vicious."

Cao Peng didn't ask any further questions, but he generally understood the whole story.

There was one more thing that he didn't quite understand.

Lu Ji, why are you so hostile to him?Aside from this framing, the first time the two met, it seemed that they were not very friendly.

"correct!"

Cao Peng suddenly remembered something, "My horse..."

"Don't worry, I'll go back and tell the little lady about the horse, and I'll find a way to return it to you then."

"But……"

"But what?"

"My horse is still in the mansion, but I'm not here, isn't it..."

Qi'er stopped, pondered for a moment, then dragged Cao Peng into a clothing store.

Following Cao Peng's previous attire and buying another one, Qi'er led Cao Peng around the street in front of the main gate of the small town and entered through a small gate.

After finding a secluded place, Cao Peng changed his clothes.

Qi'er smiled and said, "Mr. Cao, I think it looks better if you pretend to be a daughter."

With such a sentence, if it were someone else, they might not have turned against Qi'er at that time.As for Cao Peng, he was just a little embarrassed, and smiled embarrassingly.

"Sister Qi'er, don't make fun of me anymore!"

Qi'er giggled, but she didn't say any more.

However, his attitude towards Cao Peng is better.At least, what Qi'er felt was that Cao Peng didn't have that kind of machismo, and he was also gentle and respectful to girls. He spoke slowly, and occasionally blushed like a girl.

"Young Master Cao, you haven't left yet?"

Just when Cao Peng was about to say goodbye to Qi'er, he heard someone calling him.

Turning his head to look, he saw Cao Xing walking towards him with a group of soldiers.

"Uh……"

Before Cao Peng could speak, Cao Xing had already arrived.

When he saw Qi'er clearly, he couldn't help but startled.

Immediately, a weird smile appeared on his face.

"I said, your horse is still there, but the man is gone... so it turns out that you are meeting a beautiful woman privately here."

"Uh, General Cao, don't get me wrong."

"Haha, I didn't misunderstand, I didn't expect you and Miss Qi'er to be very..."

Qi'er's face darkened, "General Cao, I still have something to do, let's talk about it."

After all, she ignored Cao Xing and walked away along the small path.

"General Cao, you really misunderstood."

"Okay, I misunderstood..." Cao Xing looked at Qi'er's back with an expression of "who are you lying to", and smiled softly: "Mr. She is from her own family. In name, she is the master and servant of the eldest lady, but in fact she is as close as a sister. It's just that she is cold, not fake, and she is good at martial arts with the prince, so it is difficult for ordinary people to get in touch with."

Cao Peng knew that this matter was getting darker and darker.

Simply act as if you said whatever you want, and stop talking.

"Come on, I'll take you out of the city."

"General Cao, what's going on with you... looking like you're facing an enemy?"

"It's not that Hu... uh, it was the young Junhou who told Junhou that there were thieves making trouble in the city. The Junhou ordered an investigation, so the city was heavily guarded. Just now I saw your horse was still there, but I couldn't see you I thought...hehe, forget it, let me see you off."

When Cao Peng and Cao Xing walked out of the city gate again, Lu Ji and Sun Gan were gone.

Cao Peng straddled Zhao Yebai and bid farewell to Cao Xing.

On the way back, he was still thinking about today's incident.

Lu Ji was hostile to him, which was a bit inexplicable.

Then he tried to frame him, or it could be said that his mother was fighting for favor, but getting him involved was unavoidably sudden and weird.

Reminiscent of seeing Lu Ji and Sun Qian talking together just now, Cao Peng has a little understanding.

Sun Gongyou, are you making a move now?
Last night, Sun Qian talked with the man named 'Zi Ai' in the restaurant, revealing Liu Bei's close relationship with Haixi.

In fact, this connection is well known to everyone.

The Mi family belongs to Liu Bei, and the mastermind behind Haixi Yanxiao is also the Mi family, so Liu Bei's role in it is naturally highlighted.He relied on the private salt of the Mi family in exchange for rations and weapons, and at the same time kept a force in Haixi, which could influence Xiapi at any time.

In later generations, many people believed that Liu Bei defeated Jiangshan by crying.

But as a former fan of Liu Bei, Cao Peng knows very well that Liu Bei's ability to divide the world into three parts and stand on a par with Sun Wu Cao Wei is not only achieved by crying.This person has means and knows how to package himself better.Clan of the Han family... As Li Zongwu, the leader of the later Houhei school, said, Liu Bei, as a descendant of the Liu family, learned the "thickness" of his ancestor Liu Bang so deeply that he was as pure as fire.

However, it's fine if you don't mess with me, if you mess with me...

In Cao Peng's eyes, murderous intent loomed.

If you don't take this revenge, you are not a gentleman... Sun Qian, since you dare to frame me, I will definitely cut off your lord's fortune.

A thought suddenly appeared in his mind, Cao Peng's eyes narrowed involuntarily, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

--------------------------

When he returned to the station, Sun Qian was about to leave.

The carriages and horses were ready, and he walked out of the post station. Just as he was about to get on the carriage, he heard someone shout: "Mr. Gongyou, please stay here first."

Turning his head to look, he saw Cao Peng approaching with a smile, and cupped his hands towards him.

Sun Qian was startled for a moment, and hurriedly bowed his hand to return the salute.

"Young Master Cao!"

"Hehe, does Mr. Gongyou recognize me?"

"This...Young Master, at Wenhou's banquet, got three toasts from Wenhou, how could Sun Gan not know?"

Cao Peng smiled brightly, "I see. I, Mr. Dao Gongyou, also know my humble name, and I was secretly happy just now."

"Uh……"

Rao Sun Qian was clever and eloquent, and he didn't know how to respond to Cao Peng's words.

This guy is really shameless!

You, a little soldier, are worthy of my acquaintance?

But here is the etiquette, the so-called reaching out and not hitting people with smiling faces, Sun Gan really didn't know how to speak.

"Mr. Gongyou, are you leaving?"

"Oh, exactly."

"Be careful on the road, don't have any accidents."

Sun Gan couldn't help but thumped in his heart. Cao Peng's words sounded full of concern, but no matter how he heard it, it didn't taste like it.

Could it be that he knew something?
Looking at Cao Peng's immature face, Sun Qian was a little undecided.

"If you see Liu Yuzhou, please congratulate me."

"congratulate?"

"I heard that Liu Yuzhou won the soldiers of Yang Feng and Han Xian, and now the soldiers are strong and strong, isn't it worthy of congratulations?"

"This... Mr. Cao is joking."

"Really?" Cao Peng chuckled, "Mr. Gongyou, take care of yourself."

After speaking, he went back to the station.

Sun Qian stood beside the carriage, not knowing what to do for a while.

Cao Peng's words sounded full of affection, but after thinking about it, he felt that every sentence was a hidden plot.What exactly does this kid mean?Is he congratulating, or... Maybe, my previous actions, which were a bit reckless, were noticed by this kid?

The more I think about it, the more awkward I feel.

After Sun Qian boarded the carriage, he was worried.

"Quick, let's go back to Xiaopei right away, don't delay the journey."

————————————————————————————

"Ah Fu, just now I saw you talking with Liu Bei's envoy at the door, do you know him?"

"do not know!"

"I don't know, you talked so much with him?"

Sitting in the living room across the courtyard, Xu Yi and Dianman asked Cao Peng.

Cao Peng replied: "It's just a small talk, it's a matter of saving face."

"Oh!" Dianman nodded, then suddenly lowered his voice and said, "You don't need to be polite to him. I heard from my father that Liu Xuande is very bad."

"is it?"

Dianman nodded vigorously, indicating that what he said was true.

Cao Peng is not surprised: people like Dian Wei like to go straight.

Liu Bei may be very good at packaging himself, but in the eyes of people like Dian Wei, he may not be able to please, and may even have a counterproductive effect.

"Never mind him, let's get ready, it's time to go back."

Dianman and Xu Yi quickly agreed, and the three of them ordered the servants to prepare their luggage.

At this moment, a sound of people shouting and neighing outside the posthouse was suddenly heard.Followed by the post officer, he hurried over, saw Cao Peng, and hurried forward to salute.

"Young master Cao, someone is looking for you outside."

"Oh?"

Cao Peng was a little surprised, and hurried out of the post station with the post official.

I saw a group of sergeants parked on the long street outside the gate of the post station.

These sergeants are obviously different from the sergeants Cao Peng saw before.All of them were silent, standing quietly on the long street, carrying a strong evil spirit.

"Young Master Cao, let's meet again!"

When Cao Xing saw Cao Peng, he smiled and waved.

"You still say it has nothing to do with Miss Qi'er?"

"what happened?"

"Hehe, is this the soldier that Miss Qi'er begged for you?"

"what!"

Cao Peng opened his mouth wide, looked at the soldiers in front of him, and then at Cao Xing.

"Little Madam said, Haixi is quite chaotic now. It must not be easy for you as a child to work there, so I just asked Junhou to help you. Here, this is a soldier picked out from Wen Yuan's subordinates." , they can go with you to Haixi County... Hao Zhao!"

"The end is here!"

From among the sergeants, a young man stepped out.

Judging by his age, he was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with bushy eyebrows and big eyes, and a hulking back.

Hearing the accent, he seems to be from the Northland.

Cao Peng couldn't tell where it was.

"From now on, you follow Mr. Cao."

Hao Zhao had no expression on his face, and cupped his hands and said, "The general obeys...the general has met Mr. Cao."

"Ah, no courtesy!"

Cao Peng is still a little dizzy at the moment, but generally, he seems to understand the mystery.

Not Qier!

He and Qi'er didn't have such a deep friendship yet.

"Your Majesty, do you have any orders?"

"Your Majesty doesn't have any orders, but the little lady said, let you do things well, and if you succeed in the future, don't forget your kindness."

No, not Junhou Enyi!

It's her kindness...

Cao Peng seemed to understand a little bit.

Diao Chan... oh, let's call her Diao Chan.

She hopes that she can help Lu Bu one day in the future!
Let's not ask whether Diao Chan has selfish intentions.But in any case, these sergeants in front of him are undoubtedly a timely help to Cao Peng.

He hesitated, "Please report back to my little lady, just say Cao Peng, I will never forget today's kindness!"
