Cao Thief

Chapter 352
Something happened to Xu Du!
Ever since Yuan Shao crossed the river to attack, after a short period of calm in Xu Du, the undercurrent surged again.After Cao Cao personally led the army to go out, the royalists who had just experienced a bloody suppression seemed to become restless again.And this restlessness became more and more obvious after the Battle of Yanjin entered a stalemate.Those veteran officials of the Han Dynasty who followed the Han Emperor to move the capital in the past are ready to move.

It has to be said that Yuan Shaona's identity as the fourth generation and third prince is indeed useful.

There are many former officials of the Yuan family, and many officials in the court today are all from the Yuan family.

Previously, Yuan Shu publicly rebelled against the heavens, and it was hard for these people to say anything.But now that Yuan Shu is dead, a son of the Yuan family who is more powerful than Yuan Shu has risen in Hebei. The former Yuan family's former official, and old friend, is naturally very excited.

Kong Rong once publicly stated that Cao Cao should welcome Yuan Shao to Xudu.

Yuan Shao is a great general with millions of soldiers in his hands. If Cao Cao can cooperate, the revival of the Han Dynasty will be just around the corner.

The implication is that you, Cao Cao, should not continue to control Chao Gang!You say you are a loyal minister, then Yuan Shao is the descendant of the fourth generation and the third prince, and also a courtier of the Han Dynasty.You can invite him to assist Emperor Han together. In this way, people all over the world will praise your mind!

Cao Cao also heard this statement, and could only smile wryly.

Although Kong Rong is famous and has read many books, he is really stupid in reading!

I welcome Yuan Shao?

Shouldn't Yuan Shao's million-strong army be welcomed together?
But these, he can't explain clearly to a nerd, let him go...

Kong Rong's performance is not bad, at least to a certain extent, he admits that Cao Cao is assisting the Han Dynasty.And like him on the bright side, Cao Cao doesn't need to worry.What really worried Cao Cao were Yuan Shao's party members who were hiding in the dark and fueling the flames.

Although Xu Du was Cao Cao's Xu Du, there were inevitably many courtiers who supported Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao doesn't have the energy to search now, even if he finds out his opponent, he can't easily kill him.Xudu needs stability, not turmoil.Of course, if Cao Cao gets rid of Yuan Shao, he won't mind, and he will settle accounts with these people.

If these people want to take action, they will definitely be connected with the imperial city.

What Cao Cao was most afraid of was that another incident similar to the "clothes belt edict" would be a fatal blow to him.

Originally, he left Xun Yu in Xudu in the hope that Xun Yu could stabilize the situation.

But judging from the current situation, most of the time, Xun Yu had an attitude of inaction, and did not warn these people... This also disappointed Cao Cao.Although he couldn't deal with those people in Xudu city, he had to firmly control the emperor.

At least, to cut off the connection between Emperor Han and those people.

"Cao Peng?"

In General Fuguo's mansion, Fu Wan squinted his eyes, gritted his teeth and scolded: "One day, I will have that little thief's body smashed into thousands of pieces!"

"Why is the king like this?"

Zhang Xiang, the commander of the bus, asked curiously.

Zhang Xiang, a native of Julu, first followed Yuan Shao, then joined Cao Cao, and served as the commander of the bus.

The commander of the bus, with a rank of six hundred stones, is in charge of the south gate of the palace. He is responsible for receiving letters from officials and common people, and offering tribute from all directions.Those who are recruited to the bus will be responsible by the commander of the bus.Basically, it was an important hub for the emperor to communicate with the outside world.Although he has no military power, he has great responsibilities.It may not be considered a high-ranking official, but it has extremely important significance and responsibilities.

Fu Wan sighed, "My son's leg is disabled, that's what Cao Peng did."

"Oh?"

In the second year of Jian'an, Zhang Xiang was not in Xudu.

So I'm not very clear about what happened at the time.

Fu Wan briefly explained how Cao Peng and others beat Fu Jun outside the Rejuvenation Pavilion.Of course, he wouldn't say that Fu Jun was making trouble and galloping on horseback, nor would he say that Fu Jun's gang besieged Cao Peng's mother, only how cruel Cao Peng was...

"My son has a disabled leg, and there is no hope of becoming an official in this life.

But Cao Peng was released after only a few months of imprisonment, and was promoted all the way, and now he has achieved the post of Captain of Yueqi.The world was deceived by his two ridiculous articles, and they all praised him for his noble character.As everyone knows, this person's evil is even more powerful than Cao's thief. "

Zhang Xiang showed anger, "How can such a person be called a celebrity?"

"It's not that he is a member of the Cao thief clan, how can he have such a reputation?"

After he finished speaking, he punched the desk with resentment.

"Sigh, Your Majesty has gone through hardships and thought that Cao Cao was a loyal minister, but unexpectedly, he was also a wolfish ambition.

Now His Majesty is called Emperor Han, but he is just the puppet of Cao Cao... All matters in the court, big or small, are not discussed by His Majesty, and are all decided by Cao Cao himself.Such a position as Captain of Yueqi was actually occupied by a 17-year-old child with a yellow mouth. This is a great shame for the Han Dynasty, a great shame! "

Zhang Xiang remained silent, with a look of hostility flashing in his eyes.

"If that's the case, why did Guo Zhang agree to the little thief's post as Sima?"

Fu Wan said softly: "That's not the case, should the old thief send someone else?

That little thief may be quick-witted, but after all, he is nothing more than a child.He is a side sect Sima, so it is inevitable that he will be negligent, and we can also keep in touch with the palace.If it were someone else who was loyal to the old thief, wouldn't it make us lose contact with His Majesty? "

Zhang Xiang nodded, "The father-in-law is very worried."

"Besides, in Miyagi, there are many rules.

The little thief used to be just a countryman, and his father was even more illiterate and a vulgar person.He guards the imperial city, as long as he violates the rules a little bit, I can order someone to impeach him.At that time, even if the old thief wants to protect him, he can learn some lessons and vent his anger for my son. "

After all, Fu Wan stared at Zhang Xiang with burning eyes.

Zhang Xiang immediately understood, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, the father-in-law, I will definitely keep an eye on that little thief."

"So, please!"

After Fu finished speaking, he got up and grabbed Zhang Xiang's arm, "Now that Yuan Benchu's troops are coming to Yuzhou, the Cao bandits are hard to resist.

We still need to make more preparations to welcome Yuan Benchu.I will try my best to contact people, but you are in the palace, you need to protect His Majesty as much as possible and keep His Majesty safe. "

"Guo Zhang just rest assured, Yuan Feng saves it!"

Zhang Xiang sat for a while, then got up to say goodbye.

As soon as he left, he saw a lame young man walking into the house.

The young man was about in his early twenties, and he was also a good-looking talent.

But that lame foot always made people look awkward.As soon as Fu Jun entered the room, he first bowed to Fu Wan, and then said softly: "Father, is this Yuanfeng reliable?"

Looking at Fu Jun, Fu Wan felt a pain in his heart.

Of his four sons, two of them are dead now, and one is disabled. The youngest son is still immature, let alone help him in any way.

How wonderful it would be if Fude was still there!
Originally, Fu Wan wanted to support Fu Jun with all his strength.

But because of his lame foot, he will never be able to be an official again in this life, which has become a concern for Fu Wan.

He motioned Fu Jun to sit down, and said softly: "My son didn't go out today?"

"Didn't Dad say that it's best not to go out in the near future... Besides, even if I go out, where can I go?"

Fu Jun's few cronies, some of them died, some of them fled.

Dong Yue was punished and killed by Cao Cao because of his clothes and clothes; Zhong Ping disappeared after the accident in Zhongji.

Yang Xiu was locked at home by Yang Biao, and he was not allowed to contact anyone, for fear that he would cause trouble outside.After doing the math, it seems that those friends from his youth are gone... Fu Jun's face showed a dejected expression, he lightly thumped his thigh with his hands, and let out a long sigh.

This seemingly unintentional move made Fu Wan's heart hurt even more.

He said in a deep voice: "Although I won't let you go out, I am afraid that you will cause trouble outside.

However, if you're bored at home, it's okay to go out for a walk.Now it is spring and the flowers are blooming, and the scenery outside is just right.If you want, you can take people out of the city for an outing... But there is one thing you have to remember, you are not allowed to cause trouble, do you understand? "

Fu Jun hurriedly said: "Boy, remember father's instructions."

"Don't take care of the affairs of the court, and don't interfere.

When you are free, go to the palace to see your sister... She is always in the palace, and there is no one to talk to. If you go to accompany her, she must be happy.In addition, get in touch with His Majesty more.As long as His Majesty is willing to speak up and give you a future, even Cao Sikong can't say anything. "

Fu Jun's eyes lit up, and he quickly agreed.

"The child will take his leave first!"

He bowed and exited the room.Looking at Fu Jun's limping figure while walking, Fu Wan's face was gloomy, and his hands subconsciously clenched into fists.

"Cao Peng!"

He gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words from between his teeth.

Shaofu, Zangshu Pavilion.

Cao Ji was looking for books when he saw Liu Ye walking in from the outside with a smile on his face.

"Jun Shi, congratulations."

"Brother Ziyang, you are... where does your joy come from?"

Cao Ji has made a lot of progress after serving as the Civilian Cao Duwei for a year.At least in speech and demeanor, there are already some official demeanors.

Back then, when he first became an official, his eyes were darkened and he didn't understand anything.

Fortunately, Guo Jia recommended Guo Yong to him at that time, so that he would not lose face in public.But in private, many people are still mocking Cao Ji, mocking his rude behavior, mocking his illiteracy, and even mocking his accent.

However, the publication of an "Eight Hundred Character Essay" made most of the ridicule disappear.

Cao Ji is also very diligent. Now he can not only recite the [-]-character text upside down, but also quote scriptures when speaking, which has amazed many people.

First read with Kan Ze, and then learn to read with Huang Yueying.

A month ago, Puyang Kai returned from Haixi and made a special trip to visit Cao's mansion.

Then Cao Ji often went to ask Puyang Kai for advice, so that up to now, although he can't speak clearly, at least he can't say wrong words.

Liu Ye said: "I just got the news that Youxue is coming back!"

When Cao Ji heard this, he immediately showed surprise.

"Ah Fu... Youxue is coming back?"

"Well, I went to the Shangshu Mansion just now, and Wen Ruo mentioned this matter to me.

Youxue performed well in the front and made great achievements... Sikong has ordered him to temporarily lead the Yueqi Battalion as the captain of Yueqi, and he will return to Xudu in the near future.Junshi has a son Ruosi, even I am very envious. The 17-year-old Yueqi school captain, I have never had such a big man. "

Cao Ji was stunned!

Captain Yueqi?

Of course he knew what kind of job it was.

However, Cao Ji never linked this position with Cao Peng.Prior to this, Cao Peng had already made him feel very happy when he was appointed as the middle marshal of the Northern Army.Now, he has suddenly become the captain of Yueqi, which really surprised him.However, he immediately came to his senses and said softly: "Isn't Sikong still fighting Yuan Shao at the front line? Since Youxue has become a captain, why did you return to Xudu?"

Liu Ye narrowed his eyes, secretly appreciating in his heart.

When I first met Cao Ji, I stuttered even when I spoke.

But now, he can already feel the deep meaning from some words.

Liu Ye couldn't help but praised: "After three days of farewell, I treated each other with admiration...Now Junshi is no longer the old Zhongyang villager. Congratulations."

The scholars should treat each other with admiration for three days, from Lu Meng's mouth.

However, Liu Ye uttered similar words a long time in advance.

The Zhongyang villager doesn't mean to be contemptuous, it's more of a joke.

Cao Ji was born in Zhongyang Mountain. Before that, he was illiterate and just a blacksmith.The term Zhongyang Villager is quite appropriate.

Cao Ji chuckled, but he didn't feel the atmosphere.

Liu Ye said: "To tell you the truth, I just got the news from the Shangshufu.

Five days ago, Sikong and Yuan Shao had a decisive battle in Xiaotan. In a big battle, the Yueqi Battalion was almost wiped out.This time Youxue came back from Zhongmou to reorganize the Yueqi Camp.I heard that he went deep alone before and beheaded countless Yuan Jun, which made Sikong Neng win a complete victory...

Youxue is very talented. When he comes back this time, you have to persuade him not to let him risk his life in the future... Otherwise, it will be the death of my Han Dynasty. "

Liu Ye's remarks were inevitably suspected of flattery.

The death of the Han Dynasty!

This statement is indeed somewhat overdone.

No matter how talented Cao Peng is, he can't afford these four words.

Liu Ye also had to do it... His status is very embarrassing now. As a clan member of the Han Dynasty, he is loyal to Cao Cao. However, the status of the clan clan member of the Han Dynasty makes Cao Cao reject him even though he is willing to reuse him. Suspect.Liu Ye could see clearly that Cao Cao would play an important role in the rejuvenation or decline of the Han dynasty.Although Yuan Shao is powerful, he is probably no match for Cao Cao.

He needs to establish a solid foundation between him and Cao Cao.

But Cao Ji, as a descendant of the Cao clan, although he is a subordinate, his status is rising day by day.

This time Cao Peng served as the captain of the Yueqi school and returned to Xudu... Liu Ye was keenly aware that Cao Cao's trust in the father and son had increased by one point.

When Cao Ji heard this, he was a bit chilled.

He knew that the fight ahead was very fierce. Before that, Cao Peng fell into a coma on the white horse, which made Mrs. Zhang feel dizzy and couldn't sleep well for several days.

now……

He hesitated for a moment, then said softly: "Brother Zi Yang, I sincerely appreciate your kindness.

But what Youxue does is a state affair, and even though I am a father, I can't stop it.However, after he comes back this time, I will definitely bring him to visit my elder brother. "

"Uh, I also want to talk to Haosheng Cao Babai, but unfortunately I can't.

I have just been notified that tomorrow morning I will go to Zhongmu to pay homage to Sikong...the days are long, and when this battle is over, it will not be too late to see Youxue again. "

Cao Ji wondered, "Elder brother also wants to leave Xudu?"

"Well, there is one more thing that I need to mention... In Shangshu Mansion today, I heard from Wen Ruo that Junshi might be sent to Taipu Temple. Although Juanshi's experience in the past two years is not bad, he still You need to make some preparations. The situation at Taipu Temple is complicated."

"Taifu Temple?"

Cao Ji was stunned...
