Cao Thief

Chapter 357

When the lights are on, it is the time when Gaoshenglou's business is booming.

In the restaurant, the seats were already full of guests, and the sound of changing cups and cups could be heard endlessly.Although the battle ahead is becoming more and more fierce, Xudu is still singing and dancing.

Yuan Shao's army has crossed the chasm and is approaching Putianze.

Cao Cao stood at Guandu and confronted Yuan Jun. The Battle of Guandu just kicked off.

"I heard that something happened today."

"what's up?"

"Does Cao Babai know? Cao Babai's sister was injured!"

"Is there such a thing?"

"Yes, it is said that the injury was not serious... Even the Shaofu Imperial Doctor Order and the Taichang Imperial Doctor Order went to see and treat, and life and death are still unclear. It is said that he was injured by a horse on the street outside, but the perpetrator is still alive today. Not found...Moreover, Cao Babai has arrived in Xudu today."

"Tsk tsk tsk...then it will definitely be lively.

You said, who would have done it?If this is found out by Cao Babai, it will inevitably be another bloodbath.I've heard that the Cao family boy is amazing now. At the age of 17, he was the captain of the Yueqi school. He killed people like hemp in Yanjin and made outstanding military achievements. "

"Who said no?"

The drinkers whispered to each other and whispered.

Suddenly, on the long street outside the restaurant, there was a sound of iron hooves like a storm.

Iron hooves trample on the bluestone pavement, making the sound of gold and stone clashing.Immediately afterwards, there was a commotion on the long street, and frightened shouts came from time to time.

"Zhi Jinwu is ordered to act, and anyone who has nothing to do with it will leave immediately."

A group of soldiers dressed in black cloaked like wolves and tigers broke into the lobby of the restaurant.

The leader is a young general, holding two feet of dragon scales and wearing armor, majestic and murderous.

The shopkeeper Gao Shenglou hurried forward, "Master Jun..."

But before he opened his mouth, the young general held a pair of seals and said sharply: "As ordered by Cheng Jinwu, the Gaosheng Building will be closed immediately, and everyone will follow me to Zhijinwu's Yamen. Those who have nothing to do with others will leave immediately, otherwise they will accompany you Go to Zhijinwu Yamen."

Executive Jin Wucheng?

The drinkers in this high-rise building are not traffickers.

Although he is not a big shot, he still has some insight.

Since the Han Emperor moved the capital to Xu County, Zhijinwu has been vacant, and most of the public security in Xudu has been performed by the Fifth Northern Army School or the Habayashi Army.

Later, Jia Xu became the executive Jinwu, but he did not take back his power.

After all, as a new surrender of Cao Cao, Jia Xu will not easily touch the inherent interest groups in the court.In addition, the time is short, and there is no time for rectification.After the Battle of Yanjin started, Jia Xu went with Cao Cao, and the Northern Army Five Schools left. The power to hold Jin Wu was temporarily handed over to General Wei's Mansion, that is, Cao Ren.The Jinwu yamen has always had a name in vain, but it has not fulfilled its responsibilities.

Which one is this Jin Wu Cheng?
"Come on!"

Drinker A pulled up his companion and left Gaosheng Building with a humble smile on his face.

"I have a nephew who is on duty in the Shangshu Mansion, and I heard that the Shangshu Mansion has ordered Cao Ji to be in charge of Jin Wucheng.

Now Zhijinwu is not in Xudu, the security of the entire Xudu is in charge of Zhijinwu Cheng... Let's go quickly, something big is going to happen. "

"You mean..."

"I didn't say anything, don't move around these days, maybe something will happen."

Someone took the lead, and the drinkers in the restaurant immediately took their leave and left.

"My lord, what's going on here?"

"When you arrive at the yamen, you naturally know... count all your people! Including the kitchen staff, and even hand over the list of handymen and cooks. If there is one less person, you will have the job."

The shopkeeper Gao Shenglou could see the clues, these soldiers were by no means good-natured.

There was a strong murderous aura exuding from that body, and one could tell that he had just come down from the battlefield.There is no reason to talk to these people!Don't look at this young general who can still speak politely now. If he doesn't obey his orders, he will probably have no good fruit to eat, and may even kill someone.

It is not easy to open a restaurant in Xudu.

However, the shopkeeper Gao Shenglou still obeyed his orders respectfully, not daring to disobey in the slightest.

After a while, the soldiers escorted dozens of handymen out of the gate of the restaurant.

The shopkeeper of Gaosheng Building saw a young general sitting on the long street, sitting astride the night, standing quietly.The young general who had entered the restaurant first walked up to the young man and handed over the roster.The young man was dressed in military uniform. After receiving the roster, he glanced at the shopkeepers.

That gaze was cold, and after sweeping across the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper couldn't help but feel a chill.

"Is everyone there?"

"Yes, it's all here..."

"Well, then follow me."

The boy turned his horse's head and was just about to leave.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the alley next to the restaurant.

A young man dressed as a house slave, and several soldiers dragging a young man who looked like a handyman, came out from the alley.

"Young master, just now I saw this guy sneaking out from the back door, as if he wanted to escape, so I caught him back."

Immediately, the corner of the boy's mouth turned up, revealing a cold smile.

"Master Jun, I don't want to escape, I just, I just..."

"You just what?"

Cao Peng snorted coldly, and suddenly turned his head to look at the shopkeeper of Gaoshenglou, "Is this what you call 'everyone is here'?"

"Ah, my lord misunderstood. This young man's name is Gao Lou, and he only works temporarily in the trumpet. He helps park the carriages and horses for the guests on weekdays... he can't be regarded as a trumpet. That's why the villain didn't think about it for a while when the young master asked. Get up, please forgive me, my lord, forgive me!"

"Excuse me or not, just follow me first."

After Cao Peng said that, he pulled his horse and left.

Gao Lou grimaced, "The shopkeeper..."

"You guy, what are you running for? You almost got me involved."

"me……"

Gao Lou was obedient, but he didn't know how to speak.

A group of people went straight to the Zhijinwu yamen on Yuxiumen Street, but saw that the yamen had already been opened, and there were more than a dozen soldiers on both sides of the gate.

"Is Dad here yet?"

"It has arrived!"

Cao Peng nodded, got off his horse outside the yamen, and walked into the yamen hall.

Cao Ji has changed into an official uniform and is sitting in the yamen hall.

The gloomy government hall, the light is not particularly good.When the shopkeeper of the restaurant and others walked into the yamen hall, they couldn't help but feel trembling.

Cao Peng walked to the dark place behind the gate of the yamen hall, and saw Guo Yu standing there tremblingly.

Guo Huan accompanied her, comforting her softly.

Cao Peng stepped forward and asked, "Can you recognize the guy you mentioned?"

"It's that person!"

Guo Yu stretched out her hand and followed the direction of her finger, but saw Gao Lou hiding behind the crowd, bent over, as if trying to avoid something.

Cao Peng nodded, "Xiaohuan, take your sister back."

As he spoke, he beckoned for Xiahoulan to come over, and pointed at Gao Lou, "Take him down, and ask the state to interrogate him and pry his mouth open."

"it is good!"

Xia Houlan agreed and led the two soldiers over.

"What are you doing?"

Gao Lou was dodging, when suddenly he was dragged out of the crowd by two burly men, and couldn't help but screamed.

However, no one answered...

"I called you here today to ask about the case that happened outside your restaurant during the day." Cao Ji sullenly ignored Gao Lou's yelling, and only stared at the shopkeeper Gao Shenglou and said, "You all What you see, tell me everything... If there is any concealment, once I find out, I will punish you with the same crime... Shopkeeper Gao Shenglou, let's start with you..."

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +
Fu Jun prostrated himself on the ground, trembling slightly.

A woman tried her best to stop her from lying down, crying and shouting.

Fu Wan held a cane in his hand, and after a long while, he suddenly sighed softly, "Nizi, you have caused a lot of trouble."

"Father, didn't you just bump into that woman? Father, just rest assured, I have sent Xiaosan out of Xudu and hid it in a farm outside the city. They will never find out."

"Now it's not a question of whether you can find out, but someone wants to use this to make trouble."

After Fu finished speaking, he abandoned the rattan stick in a slump, sat on the couch and said softly: "Xun Wenruo has reported this matter to His Majesty, and said that he will thoroughly investigate to the end."

"Then let him check?"

Fu Jun was perplexed.

"What do you know... Xun Yu is sending us a warning through His Majesty.

Originally, we could have taken some action, but because of you evil son, Xun Yu found an excuse and was going to be ruthless..."

Fu Jun didn't know much about the battles in the court.

But Fu Wan understood that Xun Yu wanted to show his position to Cao Cao through this matter, and would start to punish Xu Du.

Before that, because Kong Rong opened his mouth, many people in the court began to move around, opposed Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's hostility, and asked Cao Cao to welcome Yuan Shao to Xudu, and the two were in charge of the court together.This proposition is supported by many people.It can be said that Xun Yu's failure to suppress the turmoil in Xudu before was certainly one aspect, but on the other hand, Fu Wan and others also played a role in fueling the flames secretly.

After the Yi Dai Zhao incident happened, Fu Wan was worried.

At the same time, he secretly rejoiced that he did not sign the Yidai Zhao at that time.

He actually participated in it, but he was very smart and didn't leave any clues behind.Even if Cao Cao had doubts about him, he couldn't help him for a while.Dong Cheng and others were killed, and Fu Wan was much more honest.But this is not to say that he bowed his head to Cao Cao.On the contrary, he felt more and more that Cao Cao had too much power in the court, so he acted secretly, looking for opportunities to attack Cao Cao.

Fu Wan was very clever and did not contact those veteran officials in the court.

On the surface, he only talked about Fengyue with celebrities like Kong Rong, but in private, he conveyed his thoughts through the mouths of these celebrities.

public opinion!

In this era, celebrities have a huge influence.

Especially for people like Kong Rong, every word he utters may have a huge impact.And these celebrities are sometimes very simple and easy to be used by others.When Fu Wan communicated with Kong Rong and others, he inadvertently expounded some of his own ideas, which subtly influenced the thoughts of Kong Rong and others.Then, when these celebrities speak, they can have a huge effect.

Originally, this matter went smoothly.

In Xudu City, many people had ideas like Kong Rong's.

But the incident of Fujun made Xun Yu determined to suppress it.

Xun Yu didn't have any excuses before, but now...

Fu Wan looked at Fu Jun with a look of hating iron but not steel.

After a while, he said softly: "Your sister sent someone over to inquire about this matter... Bingguo, what your sister means is that it is not common for you to stay at home all the time. So she asked His Majesty, I am going to send you to Longxi, and I will be a captain of Rongqiu first."

Hearing this, Fu Jun opened his mouth wide in astonishment.

Rongqiu, where are you?

Because of his legs and feet, it was quite difficult for him to stay in Xudu as a civil servant.

But Rongqiu?
Fu Jun hadn't even heard of it.

But he knew that Longxi was under the jurisdiction of Liangzhou.Liangzhou is a place of bitter cold, and the Qiang and Han are mixed together, there are many conflicts, and wars often occur.

"Father, I'm not going to Rongqiu."

"Don't go to Rongqiu, stay here and wait for death?"

"My elder sister is the queen, I don't believe it, who dares to kill me!"

Fu Wan sneered and said: "If someone wants to kill you, it will be effortless... Bingguo, you have grown up, you should know that the current situation is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface. Who do you think you can hide from? Back then when the big Luoyang case happened, there was no clue, but Cao Peng solved it easily in the past... It is not difficult for him to find you, maybe he is now..."

He closed his eyes, rubbed his temples lightly, and fell into deep thought.

After a while, he said resolutely: "Go, go now, leave Xudu immediately!"

"what?"

"I'm going to find someone to help me. First, I'll send you out of Xudu overnight... Then, I will ask the queen to fight for an official position for you. After you arrive at Rongqiu, try to get in touch with Huailihou first. I believe Huailihou will Take care of you...you stay in Longxi, and you can only come back when I let you back. Otherwise, as long as you dare to step into Xudu, I will be the first to kill you."

Fu Wan's expression was gloomy and cold, he stared at Fu Jun and said, "Did you understand what I just said?"

Leaving Xudu, to that bitter cold place...

Although Fu Jun was unwilling, but looking at Fu Wan's cold face, he knew that if he dared to say the word 'no', Fu Wan would definitely be ruthless.

Although it is said that tiger poison does not eat its offspring, Fu Wan can do it.

After all, to a certain extent, Fu Jun also represents the face of the royal family.Even if the face of the royal family is nothing now, it must be maintained after Fu Wan.When necessary, Fu Wan will definitely kill Fu Jun himself to preserve the dignity of the royal family...

"My child, I would like to obey my father's order."

Fu Wan nodded, "Go down and get ready."

"Yes!"

Fu Jun limped away.

The woman couldn't help but said: "Master, do you really want to do this? The eldest princess passed away, and now only his blood is left. Sending him to the bitter cold place in Longxi, how can Bingguo bear it? Let him stay Xu Du, I don't believe that Cao Peng dared to call..."

"He dares."

Fu Wan took a deep breath and said softly: "Don't meddle in this matter, I've made up my mind.

Ma Shoucheng has a deep foundation in Liangzhou, and Bingguo won't suffer too much when he goes there... Besides, he should go to experience it.You see, Cao Jiazi is only 17 years old, how much credit has he made?If Bingguo was allowed to stay in Xudu, it would be tantamount to harming him. "

After finishing speaking, Fu Wan stood up, "I'm going to find Marquis Linyi right now, and ask him to try to help."

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++
Gao Lou was almost paralyzed on the ground, his whole body drenched in cold sweat.

"Little man, the villain really doesn't know the perpetrator, nor does he want to cover up.

However, the villain recognized the horse!The villain was in Gaosheng Building, and he was in charge of leading the horse. When the incident happened, the villain recognized the horse, which was the horse that the villain led out of the stable not long before the incident.At that time, a guest officer said that he wanted to leave and asked the villain to lead the horse out... Not long after that, the villain saw someone riding that horse and knocked Mrs. Cao away on the long street... Others, the villain really don't know anything. "

Tian Yu smiled slightly, "You really don't know?"

"really do not know."

"Then let me ask you, do you know the origin of the person who took the horse away?"

"The villain is not very clear, I just remember that that person came with a group of people.

Oh, I remembered, he came to drink with a young master.That young master... came by car. When he got out of the car, the villain felt that his legs and feet seemed to be inconvenient, and he was a little limping when he walked.But the villain is just doing odd jobs temporarily, it is impossible to get past, so..."

Tian Yu got up and walked around the screen.

Cao Peng sat behind the screen with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"My lord, it looks like this boy really doesn't know, he didn't lie."

"Lame? Personal grudge?"

Cao Peng pondered for a while, "Go and tell Dad, ask him to ask the shopkeeper of Gaoshenglou, maybe he will know who the lame man is."

"Here!"

Tian Yu left the small hall and went straight to the Yatang.

After a while, he returned to the small hall and replied respectfully: "My lord, I have already asked!

There was indeed a lame young man who went to Gaosheng Tower to drink today, that is, Fu Jun, the daughter of General Fu Wan of the Fu Kingdom and Princess Yang'an, and the younger brother of the Empress. "

Fu Jun?

Cao Peng raised his head in astonishment.

To be honest, he really couldn't remember who Fu Jun was.

But Fu Wan and Empress Fu, he remembered... from Fu Wan and Empress Fu, Cao Peng immediately remembered something.In the second year of Jian'an, when he and his family accompanied Dian Weichu to Xudu, he once had a conflict with a group of playboys.It is precisely because of this incident that the later Jinlan's sworn brotherhood, Xiaobayi's name came into being.Cao Peng closed his eyes and thought about it carefully. There seemed to be a guy named Fu Jun in that group of dudes.It's just that after Cao Peng was released from prison, this matter was left behind, and he didn't even have the slightest impression.

If Tian Yu hadn't mentioned it, he really couldn't remember it...

"Fu Jun, is he a lame?"

Tian Yu smiled wryly and nodded slightly.

It seems that Cao Peng really can't remember this incident!
No wonder Cao Peng forgot about Fu Jun.After he left Xudu, he experienced too many things and saw too many powerful and powerful people.Fu Jun, an insignificant figure who is even rarely known in later generations, how could Cao Peng take him into his heart?
You know, the people Cao Peng came into contact with were all top-notch figures like Lu Bu.

Fu Jun, it's too insignificant!

"Speaking of which, Fu Jun's lameness is related to Young Master.

At the beginning, the son had a conflict with him and broke his leg.Later, he was healed by the doctor, but he was left with a disability... so that he was still white in his 20s, and he has not been able to become an official.If the perpetrator was sent by Fu Jun, it can be said. "

Cao Peng's face became even more gloomy.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++
It was already late at night, after Fu Jun got out of the light car, and brought Fu Jun to the Linyi Marquis Mansion.

He asked Fu Jun to wait outside, and went to pay a visit to Liu Guang, Marquis of Linyi.Liu Guang was sitting in the study, flipping through a volume of books.

"Marquis of Linyi, save me!"

After Fu finished walking into the study, he knelt on the ground.

Liu Guang's face darkened, he put the scroll on the desk, looked at Fu Wan with cold eyes, and didn't get up to return the salute.

He has already received a message from the palace that Empress Fu invited Emperor Han to let Liu Guang try to deal with it...at least, to save Fu Jun's life.

Liu Guang was also very unhappy about Fu Jun's actions.

In his view, you and Cao Peng have grudges, just go to Cao Peng to settle the score.

But you dare not provoke Cao Peng, but you want to provoke Cao Peng's sister, a weak woman.This is really immoral!Well, if everyone is like you, after making enemies with others outside, they vent their anger on the other party's family members, what will it look like?I'm afraid even Liu Guang will be trembling, for fear that someone will deal with his wife and children.Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, he was unwilling to help.

However, Fu Jun is the only son of Princess Yang'an today.

Fu finished five sons, of which Princess Yang'an gave birth to three.The eldest son, Fu De, and the second son, Fu Ya, both passed away, leaving only Fu Jun.The rest, such as the fourth son Fu Zun and the youngest son Fu Lang, were not born to Princess Yang'an.In terms of seniority, Fu Jun is still Liu Guang's nephew.

At the same time, Fu Jun was Empress Fu's younger brother, and Emperor Han personally sent someone, so Liu Guang couldn't refuse.

This is not only to save Fujun's life, but also to save the face of the Han family... It will not work, let Fujun die as a woman?
There is not much face and dignity left in the Han family. If Fu Jun dies, it will really lose all face.

Liu Guang didn't want to help, but he had to help...

Seeing Fu Wan's gray-haired appearance, Liu Guang couldn't bear it.

After a while, he got up, walked to Fu Wan, and reached out to help him up.

"General Fuguo, I have already heard about the cause of the matter! I just want to say...your son, really... His Majesty and the Queen ordered me to send him away from Xudu, and I can accept this matter. Tomorrow morning, I will I will let my wife return to Yingchuan's natal family, and then let Fujun pretend to be a servant and sneak out of Xudu. However, I will only guarantee him to Yingchuan, and then it will depend on your means, I don't want to get involved too much."

Liu Guang's wife is also the daughter of the Yingchuan family.

After listening, he nodded again and again, "Thank you, Marquis Linyi."

"Let Fu Jun stay in my residence tonight, you should go back quickly.

Please tell Bingguo, after arriving in Longxi, don't act like Xudu again... When something happens, no one can protect him. "

"The old man understands."

Although Fu Wan was also a clan member of the Han Dynasty, he had to be respectful in front of Liu Guang.

After thanking you a thousand times, he said goodbye and left.

Liu Guang sent Fu Wan to the door, watched Fu Wan leave, couldn't help sighing, and shook his head slightly.

Once entering the palace gate, it is not so easy to get out.

If he could make a choice, Liu Guangning would not have been born in this emperor's family!
If I help Fu Wan this time, I'm afraid I will hate Cao Peng... If he finds out about it in the future, then all my previous painstaking efforts will be in vain.

Fu Jun, oh Fu Jun, you are really not doing enough, but doing more than you are doing!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++
"Afu, what should I do?"

Cao Ji looked at Cao Peng and suddenly felt powerless.

Unexpectedly, the one who injured her daughter was actually the son of Fu Wan, the general of Fuguo, and the only male of Princess Yang'an.

revenge?

Too involved!

But not revenge... Could it be that my daughter was hit for nothing?
Cao Ji is not the blacksmith who can only swallow his anger now.As the imperial servant Cheng, temporarily holding the position of Jinwu Cheng, he can also be regarded as a court official with a salary of two thousand shi.Cao Ji's anger also rose accordingly, this tone is absolutely unbearable, otherwise how would he behave?
If you can't even protect your own daughter, even if you become a Sangong, it doesn't mean anything.

Cao Pengsen sneered, "Father, he has bullied us, this tone is absolutely unbearable.

Not to mention a Fuguo general, even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu came, I would take that Fujun's dog's life and vent my anger on my elder sister. "

Cao Ji stood up, "According to what my son said, let's go to the Fuguo General's residence to ask for someone."

Cao Peng smiled and nodded in response.

He strode out of the room and shouted sharply: "Give me the order, and Heiyan will be dispatched immediately, and follow me to the Fuguo General's residence to take people."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Deng Juye hurriedly walking along the two verandahs.

"Master, young master... Xun Shangshu sent someone over, please go to Shangshu's mansion immediately, saying that there is something important to discuss."

Hearing this, Cao Peng frowned and twisted into a word for 'Chuan'.

What does it mean that Xun Yu is looking for me at this time?
Cao Ji walked out of the room, looked at Cao Peng and said, "Could it be that Shangshu Xun also found out the truth?"

If it were a person, Cao Peng would not pay attention at all.But Xun Yu is different. He is Cao Cao's humerus minister who stayed in Xudu, and this face must be given.It would definitely not be a good thing to fall out with Xun Yu.Although Cao Peng is very favored by Cao Cao, for now, Cao Cao's reliance on Xun Yu is far beyond what Cao Peng can compare.The meaning of Xun Yu looking for his father and son... Cao Peng can vaguely guess.

"Father, Xun Shangshu invited us to go, I'm afraid he wants to appease us."

"Then let's go and see what Xun Shangshu said. Anyway, if I want to swallow my anger, I will never agree... Someone must be punished for your sister."

Cao Ji gritted his teeth and said viciously.

Cao Peng also nodded immediately, and walked out of the mansion together with Cao Ji.

Xun Yu sent a group of people, and Cao Peng, the leader of the family general, also recognized him. He was the famous general who accompanied Xun Yan to Jiangdong at the beginning.

Cao Peng remembered that his name was Xun Meng.

When Xun Meng saw Cao Ji and his son, he stepped forward and bowed in salute.

"Bong Che Hou, Captain Cao, my master ordered me to come and meet you two."

meet?

I'm afraid it's not that simple!

Cao Peng sneered in his heart, but he didn't want to turn his back on Xun Meng, so he just cupped his hands and boarded the carriage of Shang Shufu with Cao Ji.

When he came to Shangshu Mansion, Xun Yu was waiting in the flower hall.

Cao Ji and Cao Peng went up to meet with Xun Yu, and Xun Yu went straight to the point and said straightforwardly: "I invite you to come here with a chariot, and there is only one thing I want to ask. I think, with the ability of Youxue, we must Already figured it out, even figured out what was going on.

I know it's hard for you to do this.

But I still want to implore Feng Chehou and Youxue, please don't touch Fu's house...at least, for now, don't touch them. "

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

It's two in one, I'm still in a bad state today, and my thoughts are messed up.

So, there is only one update.
