Cao Thief

Chapter 520 Zhao Weizhang

Looking at the girl in front of him, Cao Peng couldn't help laughing!
According to the customs of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a girl can get married at the age of 14, but Ma Wenlu is already [-] years old, and her sister-in-law is still alone.In Cao Peng's view, Ma Wenlu's appearance is quite delicate.But for some reason, people like Pang Tong think that Ma Wenlu's appearance is very ordinary.This is a difference in aesthetic point of view, and to be honest, there is nothing worth arguing about...

On the contrary, Ma Wenlu's temperament is very straightforward, and sometimes he seems very innocent, which is quite lovable.

From the beginning of the hostility towards Cao Peng, it gradually eased later.At least so far, her hostility towards Cao Peng has eased a lot.It's no longer like the first time we met, we rushed out of the crowd with a knife and fought desperately with Cao Peng.

"Your sister-in-law asked you to ask?"

Cao Peng glanced at Ma Wenlu and said in a deep voice.

Ma Wenlu was startled, and blurted out: "How do you know?"

To be honest, Cao Peng didn't particularly like Ma Chao's wife.

He is scheming, but also likes to be smart.It might be a little too much to say that Mrs. Yang is stupid, but she really likes to show off her cleverness.

"Your father killed Han Wenyue."

"Um……"

Ma Wenlu lowered his head.

She did know Han Sui, and when they were young, when Ma and Han were friends, Han Sui often came to visit Ma Teng and loved Ma Wenlu very much.She really couldn't comment on Ma Teng's killing of Han Sui.In my heart, although I don't agree with Ma Teng's approach.But she is a girl, how can she stop Ma Teng from doing things?
"Don't get me wrong, I don't have any friendship with Han Sui, he's doing his own thing, and to be honest, he has little to do with me.

But you must be clear about one thing, your father is the prefect of Wuwei appointed by the imperial court, Marquis Huaili, a former general... In terms of official position, he is older than me, but this does not mean that he can do whatever he wants and do things according to his temper .

Han Sui was also an official of the imperial court.

I don't care who made him the prefect of Jincheng, at least so far, the court has not objected to his position.In other words, Han Sui, like your father, is an official of the imperial court, and he is a senior official of two thousand shi... Your father does not have the power to kill an official recognized by the imperial court at will, otherwise it will be regarded as treason...

I say these words, do you understand? "

Ma Wenlu opened his eyes wide, trying hard to understand the meaning of Cao Peng's words.

But at the end of the day, she still scratched her head, with a confused look on her face, "I don't quite understand, so just say it directly."

"it is good!"

Seeing Ma Wenlu's bewildered look, Cao Peng smiled helplessly.

He took a deep breath, "That is, I can't let you go... You are the family members of the traitors now, and life and death are not for me to decide, but for the court to decide! If the court says that Ma Teng killed Han Sui, it was not a conspiracy If you are rebellious, then I will let you go, and you can even withdraw from Wuwei County; but if the court says that Ma Teng is a rebel and a rebellious party...then..."

There was a stern look on Cao Peng's face.

"Miss Wenlu, I will try my best to protect you.

Although it is not up to you to stop what Ma Teng did, but even for his children and family, some things are unavoidable to face.I can only say that so far, you and your family can live comfortably.After the imperial court issued an edict, I will not be able to make the decision.Whether to live or die, whether to be imprisoned or released, all are decided by the court... So, do you understand? "

The court is not the court of the Han Dynasty, but the court of Cao Cao.

What Cao Peng said made Ma Wenlu look sad.

After a long while, she gave a slight blessing, and said softly: "Wen Lu will still treat my sister and sister-in-law, thank you General for your kindness."

After all, she turned to leave.

Looking at Ma Wenlu's back, Cao Peng shook his head.

He is not trying to evade, nor is he intimidating...but if he wants to control Wuwei, he must be known as Ma Teng's rebel party.

I believe that Cao Cao is also very willing to sit down on Ma Teng's crime of treason.

As for these women... In the troubled times, being the children of tyrants, they have to bear extraordinary pressure.It may be very beautiful, but maybe it will be very bleak.The Sima family conspired to usurp Wei, so Cao's children were also killed and injured?

This is the price of seeking the world!

This has been the case in all dynasties, and it is not because he, Cao Peng, is ruthless.

Now, he only hopes that this great river and mountain will not be ravaged by such misfortune.If you want to do this, you must end the war as soon as possible.Three Kingdoms, iron horses and golden swords, heroes emerge in large numbers.But in the end, it's those low-level farts who suffer!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++
Thinking of this, Cao Peng felt that his thoughts were very confused.

He turned around and was about to enter the house when he heard: "My lord, De has something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Looking up, he saw Pound walking over.

Speaking of Pound, he is a very interesting guy.After he seized the three counties of Wuwei, according to his merits, he could at least be a school lieutenant.According to Cao Peng's original intention, it is the best choice for Pang De to lead the army alone and sit in Cangsong... But he refuses to live or die!After returning to Guzang, he returned all his military power and begged Cao Peng to follow him.

That is to say, he wanted to be Cao Peng's personal follower, not a general who led an army alone.

Cao Peng tried to persuade him again and again, but Pang De seemed to agree, and refused to agree...

Cao Peng can understand Pound's thoughts.

He is also afraid!
Pound is a surrendered general, and lacks sufficient military exploits and qualifications.Leading the army alone may seem very beautiful, but in fact it has great risks.First of all, when he first surrendered to Cao Peng, he led an army alone. It is inevitable that some people will not accept it, and even arouse jealousy.Xia Houlan, Hande, and Pan Zhang, which one of them has not followed Cao Peng for many years?Even Han De, who has the lowest qualifications, has followed Cao Peng since Yanjin for five years, but he is only a Sima.

Pan Zhang, that was appointed by the imperial court to protect the Qiang captain, he led the army alone, no one would object.

Xia Houlan has been Cao Peng's bodyguard since the beginning of the second year of Jian'an.From Wancheng to Nieyang, from Nieyang to Langling, from Langling to Xudu, and from Xudu to Haixi.When Cao Peng was sent to Jiangdong, he was a guard; when Cao Peng fought bloody Quyang, he was also a general.Later, Pan Zhang became an official, but Xiahoulan was still Cao Peng's guard... Originally, Xiahoulan had already become an official with a salary of a thousand stones.But as soon as he heard that Cao Peng was going to open up Hexi, he abandoned his official position and ran to Hexi to accompany him without saying a word.

For such a person, no one would dare to say anything even if he was given a general.

But what about Pound?

He may be skilled in martial arts, but he is not enough to convince the crowd.

At least among the many plays around Cao Peng, he has the least qualifications and the least reputation.

This is also why Jiang Xuliang Kuan can become a county captain, Su Youneng can be recommended as Ri Le chief, Geng Qing can be a luan bird chief, no one objected; and Pang De...

Pound knows the stakes!

Therefore, he would rather be a pawn in the White Camel Soldier or Feiyan than lead an army alone.

When the leader is outside, everyone speaks for themselves.

Cao Peng may value him and trust him, but if he is blown away by many people, Pang De may not be able to bear it.He had had enough of being exiled by Ma Teng back then, and he had also suffered enough of being distrusted.So he chose to stay with Cao Peng to do things.Not to mention anything else, but I hope that if this qualification is mixed up, and he is truly accepted by the Cao Peng shogunate, he will have the capital to lead the army alone.Cao Peng also had no choice but to agree to let Pang De stay by his side temporarily.

But Cao Peng is not willing to waste such a fierce general.

Xia Houlan is not young anymore. It is really wronged for Xia Houlan to let him be a guard at the age of 30.

Cao Peng reported to the imperial court that Xia Houlan was invited to be the general of Zhonglang to lead an army alone and stationed in Hexi.

And Han De, also played as a school lieutenant, cooperated with Xia Houlan to set up a military mansion in Hexi, so as to promote the military system of that mansion as soon as possible.

As soon as Xia Houlan left, the white camel soldiers and Fei Xuan lacked a leading general.

Pang De succeeded Xia Houlan as Cao Peng's tooth general, commanding the white camel soldiers and Fei Xuan.And Pang Ming served as Army Sima, the chief general of Feixuan; Jiang Jiong also served as Army Sima, the chief general of the white camel soldiers.It fills a vacancy.

"Lingming, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it."

"Ma Teng is tyrannical, and Ma Chao is also extremely headstrong, but Miss Wen Lu is a good girl. If the court really decides that Ma Teng is a rebellious party in the future, I ask you to try to protect Miss Wen Lu. She... has always been very Kind."

"Uh……"

Cao Peng looked at Pang De with a very strange look.

Pound immediately knew that Cao Peng had misunderstood...

He quickly waved his hands and said anxiously: "Young master, don't misunderstand, De has nothing to do with Miss Wenlu...De is in his hometown, married, and has two sons. The eldest son Hui is eight years old, and the second son Yuan is five years old. Don't think that , De has selfish intentions. Ms. Wenlu has a very good reputation in Guzang. When everyone mentions her, they say that Ms. Wenlu is a good person, so..."

"Hahaha, Ling Ming, don't worry."

Cao Peng waved his hand, "I didn't misunderstand, it's just... well, I promise, I will try my best to save Miss Wenlu's life."

"Thank you, Mr. Pound."

Cao Peng smiled, turned and walked to the study.

He believed Pound's words... Pound and Ma Wenlu were really unlikely to have any affair.According to him, he got married at least nine years ago, and he was just a nobody at that time.And after being exiled to Longqi City for four years, it was even more impossible to contact Ma Wenlu.So, to say that Pound and Ma Wenlu have an affair?I really can't explain it.

He interceded for Ma Wenlu, which showed that Ma Wenlu was indeed of good character in normal times.

Thinking about it, keeping a woman is not a big problem...

As for Fei's, Yang's, Cao Peng is not interested.If the court ordered, he would definitely kill them without any hesitation.Ma Wenlu, a very interesting girl!Take it as a favor for Pound.

"Son!"

"Is there anything else you need to do?"

Pound hesitated for a moment, then said softly: "My lord, are you still worrying about the candidate for Gu Zang Ling?"

"Yes, does Ling Ming have any good recommendations?"

Cao Peng didn't need to hide anything, so he asked with a smile.

Pang De said softly: "De knows one person for sure, and he can take on a heavy responsibility."

When Cao Peng heard this, he couldn't help but startled.He just said it casually just now, but he didn't expect that Pang De really wanted to recommend candidates.

The reason why he didn't care was because Pang De had been in Longqi City for the past four years.

He is in Wuwei County, and he has no foundation, so asking him may not be fruitful.But since Pang De said it, Cao Peng really wanted to know who he would recommend for himself, "Ling Ming, tell me, who can take the role?"

"Tianshui County, Zhao Ang, Ji County."

Zhao Ang?

"Zhao Weizhang was the same year as Yang Yishan, and was once the Dao Ling of Qiang.

When Liang Shuang rebelled, his two sons were killed, and his wife Wang Yi and daughter Zhao Ying escaped in time and survived.After Liang Shuang asked for peace, in order to protect the overall situation, Zhao Ang finally did not find Liang Shuang's grievances, but just welcomed his wife and daughter back.But after that, he didn't want to help Wei Duan any more, so he resigned from office. He is a man of integrity.Moreover, he is extremely talented, not only proficient in internal affairs, but also proficient in military affairs.Yang Yishan felt that it was a pity for him to hide from the world, so he insisted on asking him to come out of the mountain, but he was rejected.Last year, Yang Yishan became the prefect of Hanyang and wanted to conquer Zhao Ang, but he still failed.

If the son can invite Zhao Weizhang, then Wuwei County will definitely be ruled.

At least you don't have to worry about Gu Zang's affairs... This person is really talented, so I boldly recommend him. "

"You, know this Zhao Ang?"

Pang De scratched his head, and said softly: "I don't know De... However, he has some relationship with Liangliang, and it is said that he is a relative. If you want to invite him, you can ask Mingliang to invite him. Presumably Zhao Ang will not." reject."

Bright is Jiang Jiong.

Zhao Ang is from Ji County, and Jiang Jiong is also from Ji County.

Pound said that the two of them were relatives, but it might not be that simple.

Yang Fu Yang Yishan is still from Ji County, and he is the same year as Zhao Ang.But when Yang Fu invited him like that, Zhao Ang didn't come out of the mountain.If Jiang Jiong wants to invite him, can he invite Zhao Ang?Cao Peng really didn't know exactly who Zhao Ang was.It's no wonder that Zhao Ang appeared in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but it was just a name...

So many people appeared in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, how could Cao Peng remember them all?

But Liang Shuang rebelled, he had heard of it.

It happened at the beginning of Jian'an, when Cao Peng had just arrived in Haixi.

In history, Zhao Ang made great achievements in battle when Ma Chao raised his troops from Xiliang.Cao Cao later enshrined the eleven heroes who fought against Ma Chao as marquises, and Zhao Ang was the largest.In the 18th year of Jian'an, Ma Chao besieged Ji County, Liangzhou Governor Wei Kang, the son of the current Liangzhou Governor Wei Duan, wanted to surrender, but Zhao Ang firmly disagreed.

But Wei Kang refused to listen, and was eventually killed by Ma Chao.

Ma Chao hijacked Zhao Ang's son and forced Zhao Ang to obey his orders.However, Zhao Ang conspired with Liang Kuan and others (that is, Liang Kuan who is now attached to Cao Peng) to revolt and crusade against Ma Chao, resulting in Ma Chao's defeat and defection to Zhang Lu.Ma Chao's wife, the Yang family who has become a prisoner of Cao Peng's class, was killed by Zhao Ang at that time.In the 19th year of Jian'an, Ma Chao got reinforcements from Zhang Lu and attacked Qishan.It was Zhao Ang and his wife Wang Yi who held Qishan for 30 days with weak soldiers.It was not until Xia Houyuan's reinforcements arrived that Ma Chao was repelled.But Zhao Ang's son was also beheaded by Ma Chao in Qishan.

In the battle of Qishan, Zhao Ang made nine ingenious strategies, which made Ma Chao return without success.

It's just that there are not many records about Zhao Ang in the history books; but Zhao Ang's wife, Wang Yi, is a character written in "Biography of Martyr Girl".

Cao Peng looked at Pound suspiciously, "Mingliang, how can you tell Zhao Ang to leave the mountain?"

Pang De smiled, "Zhao Weizhang has a very good character. But there is one thing, he respects his wife very much.

When Liang Shuang ravaged Tianshui, Jiang Jiong's parents were killed by rebels to save Wang Yi's mother and daughter... So Wang Yi recognized Jiang Jiong as his adopted son and loved him very much.If Zhao Weizhang's daughter was not too young, it would be impossible to marry Mingliang. "

"Is there such a thing?"

Cao Peng is really not clear about the many twists and turns.

It has never been mentioned in the history books that Zhao Ang and Jiang Jiong still have such a relationship...

He thought for a while and said, "Ling Ming, go and get Ming Liang."
