Cao Thief

Chapter 373 Cao Chong's apprenticeship (12) Ask for a monthly ticket!

I don't know who secretly spread the news that Mrs. Huan wanted Cao Peng to be Cao Chong's teacher.

However, Li Ru told Cao Peng that the person who spread the news was probably Mrs. Huan herself.Cao Cao has many wives and concubines, excluding Mrs. Ding, who has already cut off her friendship, there are more than ten people with names and surnames in Sikong Mansion.Among them, there are children from aristocratic families, and some are from prostitutes' families, and there are differences in high and low.For example, Mrs. Bian, Cao Pi's mother, was born in the Langya prostitute family.

Intrigue between each other is inevitable.

The most important thing is that Mrs. Bian has been with Cao Cao for the longest time and has three sons, so she has the highest status.

Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi were all born by Mrs. Bian.Among them, Cao Pi has begun to fulfill his responsibilities, and Cao Zhi worships Xun Yue as his teacher, and is known for his quick thinking.Although Cao Cao loved Cao Chong, Mrs. Huan was in a weak situation from the very beginning... Fortunately, there was another Xia Houyuan, which made Mrs. Huan more or less invincible.Other than that, there is no advantage at all.

"Mrs. Huan, this is to use your name to attract talents for the Fifth Young Master."

"My name?"

Li Ru smiled and said, "My lord, don't underestimate your name. Although you are white now, the name of Cao Babai is not in vain. Your merits and talents have been recognized by many people. Otherwise, how could Qingliu celebrities remain indifferent to your confrontation with Fu Wan this time? If Kong Rong and those idiots stood up and said a word for Fu Wan, your situation would definitely become very dangerous.

Four months?
That's light, and it may even kill the whole family, and even the parents will be implicated. "

Cao Peng was startled and broke out in a cold sweat.

In retrospect, it was indeed a bit of a fluke.

The silence of Kong Rong and others at that time undoubtedly had a huge impact on Emperor Han.Emperor Han dragged the case and refused to settle it for a long time. In fact, he was waiting for those celebrities to stand up and create public opinion, so that he could easily stand on the commanding heights of morality.

Who knew that Kong Rong and the others were dumb!
In the end, many arrangements could not be implemented smoothly.

Delaying it will do no good to Emperor Han.In desperation, Emperor Han had no choice but to make concessions...

To be honest, before that, Cao Peng didn't like Kong Rong and others.I always feel that this is a bunch of guys who talk about the wrong country.He respected the knowledge of people like Kong Rong, but he didn't like their character very much.But listening to Li Ru's analysis made Cao Peng realize the importance of people like Kong Rong for the first time!Nima, what people like Kong Rong represent, isn't it the direction of public opinion in later generations?
In this day and age, there are no newspapers.

Therefore, the direction of public opinion is completely controlled by Qingliu.

After talking with Li Ru, Cao Peng made a new judgment on Kong Rong's position.

Historically, this guy was also killed by Cao Cao because he offended Cao Cao.This is also a major reason why Cao Cao was criticized in later generations.

Li Ru said with a smile: "If you can control people like Kong Rong, young master, you will be able to do everything in your favor."

Control it?
In fact, it is not impossible.

This group of people will be a group of angry youths in later generations.

As long as their speech can be controlled within a certain range, it will definitely have a huge effect.

However, the conditions are not yet ripe. When the time is right, let's take action... Before that, it is undoubtedly important to have a good relationship with people like Kong Rong.After thinking for a long time, Cao Peng finally decided that he should go to Kong Rong's mansion and pay a visit.

Of course, it is not easy to visit Kong Rong.

As the representative of Qingliu, Kong Rong doesn't mean that he can see it when he sees it.

This visit must have some name and be reasonable.Cao Peng sat in the study for a long time, contemplating, and finally set his sights on the "Three Character Classic" that Ke had just written.Whether you throw bricks to attract jade or cast stones to ask for directions, let this "San Zi Jing" act as a stepping stone.

It took a month for the three characters to be compiled completely.The full text has a total of 1722 characters, which is consistent with the original text.

But the content will definitely be different. Cao Peng made some changes according to the situation of this era.For example, in the original text, "Dou Yanshan has righteous prescriptions, teaches five sons, and is well-known" has become "Shu Shenjun, who is the fourth elder."There are eight sons, all Jackie Chan'.It is about Xun Yu's grandfather, Xun Shu, one of the four elders of Yingchuan.Xun Shu had the reputation of "Shenjun" in her early years, so Shu Shenjun is just right.

Xun Shu had eight sons, who were called Eight Dragons at that time.

Compared with 'Dou Yanshan', it is not too much...

More importantly, Cao Peng hoped to show his favor to Xun Yu through this method.

It is undeniable that in the conflict between Cao Peng and Fu Wan, Xun Yu seemed to enforce the law impartially, but he still had some inclinations towards Fu Wan.As a result, the relationship with the Cao family has naturally become a little alienated.This point can be seen from the case of Cao Peng's assassination.

Logically speaking, when Cao Peng was assassinated, Xun Yu should come to visit him.

Xun Yu and Deng Ji have a good relationship, and they also had a lot of support with Cao Peng before.However, when Cao Peng was assassinated, even Sima Lang, the new magistrate of Xu County, came to visit him, but Xun Yu never showed his face.Cao Peng didn't want the relationship he had worked so hard to ruin because of Fu Wan's incident.After all, in the next 12 years, Xun Yu will play an important role in the Cao Wei Group and should not be easily offended.

"Come on, get Hu Ban here."

After a while, Hu Ban hurried to Cao Peng's study.

Cao Peng handed the wrapped "San Zi Jing" to Hu Ban along with a famous card.

"Give this thing to Kong Rong and Kong Yangzhou."

"Here!"

Looking at the back of Hu Ban leaving, Cao Peng thought to himself: Whether it can be done or not, it's all in one fell swoop...

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
When he first plagiarized, Cao Peng was ashamed.

Cao Peng was very ashamed when he plagiarized for the second time.

When he plagiarized for the third time, Cao Peng was very ashamed...for the fourth, fifth, sixth time...that bit of shame gradually faded away.

As a time traveler, if you don't know how to plagiarize, how can you be called a time traveler.

In the end, Cao Peng had no feeling at all.How can it feel when plagiarism has become a habit?At least, Cao Peng has become numb!Plagiarism once is plagiarism, plagiarism ten times is still plagiarism.But if you plagiarize a hundred times or a thousand times, you are called a master!

In the garden of Sikong Mansion, the sun was shining brightly.

The sweet-scented osmanthus garden is full of fragrance and colorful.

Mrs. Bian walked among the sea of ​​flowers with an extremely relaxed expression.

Although it is more than [-] years old, the charm still exists.The experience of being a prostitute is no longer mentioned.However, the experience of a prostitute made Mrs. Bian have a charming style different from ordinary people.She has a cold personality and doesn't like prosperity, which is exactly the opposite of Mrs. Huan.

Mrs. Huan is full of vitality, while Mrs. Bian is calm and graceful.

The two have their own merits, and it is impossible to say who is good and who is bad, but in short, Cao Cao likes them very much...

Officials and officials seem to be harmonious.

However, it is not humane to intrigue secretly.

Mrs. Bian stopped and said softly, "Guoguo, is the news true?"

"Madam, there is indeed such a thing."

The one who spoke was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl with bright eyes and bright teeth, with a respectful demeanor.

Her name is Xia Guoguo, originally from Wu County.In the early years, she came to Qiao County with her family. Both of her parents died. Later, she was taken in by Mrs. Bian and became the most caring maid beside Mrs. Bian.

Mrs. Bian said: "Cangshu is intelligent and needs to be taught.

I'm not saying that Cao Peng is not suitable, he is Sikong's nephew, he is loyal to Sikong, and he is known for his talent.However, he seems to be only 17 years old this year, which means he is three years older than Ziheng.Would it be inappropriate for him to teach Cang Shu? "

After hearing this, Xia Guoguo couldn't understand what Mrs. Bian meant.

"If you look at it as a maidservant, it must be inappropriate."

"Well, but Cang Shu is the son of Xiaohuan, so I can't say anything. Anyway, it's better to be cautious, don't delay Cang Shu..."

"Little maid understands!"

Xia Guoguo supported Mrs. Bian, and respectfully agreed.

"Go back, I'm tired!"

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++
This is a war without gunpowder, but better than fighting with real swords and guns.

Mrs. Huan's meaning is very clear, Cao Peng has a wide network of contacts, and he is talented, so he must be an important minister of Cao Cao in the future.Let Cao Chong follow Cao Peng, although he is only a beginner, but the teacher-student relationship is solid.With this relationship, it will definitely bring Cao Chong a lot of convenience in the future.

However, what Mrs. Huan can see, Mrs. Bian can also see.

Cao Peng has too many contacts!
He is the nephew of Cao Cao's family and one of the Xiaobayi, with a literary name.

He saved the country, Dian Wei, and the son of Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who are sworn brothers; he has a close relationship with Yingchuan scholars, especially Chen Qun, who is said to have a good relationship; he is a disciple of Hu Zhao, so he has enough capital He has business contacts with Xia Houyuan, Cao Hong, and Cao Ren, and they have vaguely formed alliances; he has a good reputation in Shilin, and has contacts with many generals with foreign surnames; he...

If you don't think about it seriously, no one will notice the power around Cao Peng.

Not to mention that Cao Peng's father, Cao Ji, is now a prime minister with a salary of more than two thousand stones, and a famous knife maker;In just four years, Cao Peng has faintly developed into a climate.

Mrs. Bian began to feel regretful, and seemed to have ignored the existence of Cao Peng before.

But it's useless to regret, since that's the case, I definitely won't let Cao Peng and Cang Shu reach a relationship...

In short, Cao Peng belongs to the kind of master who gets shot while lying down.

He practiced the Wu Qinxi taught by Hua Tuo every day at home, and at the same time, he did not lose the seven transformations of the white tiger.

When I have nothing to do, I read books and practice calligraphy, and my life is quite happy.

But outside, a stormy sea has already set off.

As the capital of the Han Dynasty, Xudu naturally gathered the world's talents, and countless famous Confucian scholars gathered in Xudu City.

Fifth Young Master looking for a teacher?

This is a good thing!

What, let Cao Peng be the teacher of the fifth son?

How can this be!As for Cao Peng, he just wrote a few articles and wrote a few poems.I haven't heard of any classics written by him, let alone handed down works.Besides, Cao Peng is only 17 years old this year, what does he know?Does he know what is the way of governing the country, what is the ancient style?Of course, it cannot be denied that Cao Peng also has talents, but he absolutely cannot be a teacher.

Including Kong Rong, also expressed strong opposition.

Cao Cao is coming back!

The Battle of Guandu has come to a successful conclusion.

After Yuan Shao retreated across the great river, he joined Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang, and his nephew Gao Gan.In the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao's entire army was almost wiped out... More than [-] troops were damaged on the south bank of the river, suffering heavy losses and greatly weakening their vitality.However, Hebei has a large population, and Yuan Shao still has the strength to fight.After he returned to Hebei, he ordered his troops to rectify, recuperate, and prepare to fight Cao Cao again.

However, Tian Feng was ordered to die by Yuan Shao after the Battle of Guandu.

After being captured by Cao Cao, Ju Shou vowed not to surrender, and was finally beheaded by Cao Cao in Yanjin...

Although Cao Cao won a complete victory, he was unable to attack.He needs to digest this big victory, and at the same time, he needs to give his troops a rest.

In September of the fifth year of Jian'an, two months after the end of the Guandu War, Cao Cao's troops returned to Xudu.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++
"How can you learn from Cao You, how can you be a teacher?"

In the streets and alleys of Xudu, people are talking about it.

The focus of the topic is still on whether Cao Peng is qualified to be Cao Chong's teacher.

Mrs. Huan didn't let anyone stop her, but just watched with cold eyes.When the argument started, she realized the mystery hidden in it.

This debate must be instigated by someone secretly.

Originally, it was just enlightenment, how could there be such a big controversy?

Enlightenment is different from formal teaching.That is to teach some of the most superficial things... literacy, writing, and some classics.

In rural private schools, many first teachers are not well-known at all, and sometimes they are able to teach classes with a few hundred characters.To truly receive education, one must start from "Poetry" and "On the Beginning". Generally, at this stage, one must have real talents and practical learning.

If you go a step further, such as "Shangshu", "Spring and Autumn", "Book of Changes" and "Historical Records", the threshold for teaching teachers is even higher.

Mrs. Huan didn't want Cao Peng to teach Cao Chong those advanced things. To put it simply, she still hoped to find a helper for Cao Chong.

However, things have evolved to this point, which is out of Mrs. Huan's control.

She can only stand aside, observe quietly, and wait for the development of the situation...

Whether Cao Peng can be a teacher depends on Cao Cao's attitude in the end.Before that, Mrs. Huan could only stand still...

Kong Rong ate wine at a friend's house and returned home after dark.

Today, the conversation at a friend's house was very pleasant, and Kong Rong was in a very good mood.In normal times, before Haishi, he would have gone to bed.But today he was a little excited, and when he got home, he couldn't fall asleep, so he simply went to the study, looking for a book to pass the time.

On the table, there is a cloth bag.

Kong Rong picked it up suspiciously, and asked in a deep voice, "Who sent this thing?"

"Master forgot? It was a few days ago, and Cao Babai sent someone to deliver it... At that time, the master didn't care, and just let the villain put it aside."

"Cao Babai? Cao Peng?"

Kong Rong was stunned for a moment, as if he had a little impression.

A few days ago, Cao Peng had someone deliver this cloth bag, but Kong Rong didn't care about it at the time, so he put it on the case.

For the next few days, he put the incident behind him, almost forgetting it.

If he hadn't eaten too much wine today and couldn't sleep, he probably wouldn't have noticed.However, Kong Rong couldn't remember what kind of friendship he had with Cao Peng.He has a good impression of Cao Peng. On the one hand, it is because of Cao Peng's "Eight Hundred Characters", and on the other hand, it is because of the two original "Humble Room Inscriptions" and "Ai Lian Shuo".More importantly, Cao Peng's teacher is Hu Zhao, whose talent and reputation are not inferior to Kong Rong.

It's just that before Cao Peng made a big fuss about Fuguo General's Mansion...

Kong Rong suddenly remembered that there has been a lot of trouble recently about making Cao Peng the teacher of Cao Chong.

Could it be that Cao Peng wants my help?
He sneered, and threw the cloth bag on the desk casually.

Dare to be a teacher at such a young age?Really ignorant!
Kong Rong had no interest in this first teacher.He is like a university professor. If you ask him to teach a kindergarten child, how can he be enthusiastic?Sitting down, Kong Rong closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, then opened his eyes and stared at the cloth bag on the desk...

"Forget it, let me see what exactly you gave."

Kong Rong looked at Zhuozhou, couldn't help being curious, and untied the cloth bag.
