Cao Thief

Chapter 592 Every family has scriptures that are difficult to read (22)

Guo Jia was shocked, jumped out quickly, and said sharply: "Xiao Yixiu is going to talk nonsense, speak slowly, what happened?"

Cao Peng is too bold!

Your brother is still a prisoner and is under punishment, how can you be so arrogant?

Guo Jia didn't believe that Cao Peng would really kill Cao Zhi, but he was terrified when he heard Guo Yi say it.He stole a glance at Cao Cao, and seeing Cao Cao's face sinking like water, he felt a little panic in his heart.After all, no one would be too happy when he heard that someone was going to kill his son.Even if that person is also favored and trusted by Cao Cao, after all, he is still not as close as his own flesh and blood.

Perhaps seeing Guo Jia, Guo Yi gradually calmed down.

He stammered and told the story to Guo Jia and the others, and when Guo Jia finished speaking, including Cao Cao, he couldn't help but let out a long breath at the same time.

It turned out that it was not murder, but anger.

But it's good, why is Cao Peng getting angry?
Also, why did Cao Zhi suddenly go to visit Cao Peng?

Cao Cao couldn't help being puzzled, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said, "Feng Xiao, Wen Ruo, you two go over and see what's going on. Jun Ming!"

"Here!"

Dian Wei strode forward and stepped in to salute.

Just now, when he first heard the news, he was also shocked.

Now that he heard Cao Cao's call, he naturally didn't dare to neglect him in the slightest.

"If Youxue just got angry, Zijian and the others must have left. You immediately bring someone back, and I will ask him personally."

Dian Wei agreed and left in a hurry.

Cao Cao patted his forehead lightly, and glanced at Cao Chong standing under the steps.

"Cang Shu, you go back first, don't go out today."

"Follow my father's orders."

Cao Chong also left...

But Cao Cao couldn't help but smiled wryly, and turned to look at Dong Zhao, "I planned to let Youxue contact the Lu Han Kingdom in private, and when the Lu Han Kingdom formally surrendered, I would have an excuse to pardon him. Unexpectedly, this child... ...It seems that it is impossible to hide it! Since I can't hide it, I plan to let him stand up, cover it up, and look petty. Let him be the official translator and cooperate with Zi Yang to take responsibility Receive the Lu family. This way, it will be more convenient for him to contact the Lu family, what does Gongren think?"

It seems that Lu Han's overseas investment is a diplomatic matter.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a special person in charge of such things, and the official position was Dahonglu.As early as in the Qin Dynasty, there was a similar position, named Dian Ke, who was in charge of contact with foreign countries.When it came to Emperor Wu, it was changed to Dahonghe, which was originally just to praise loudly, and did not have much power.But later, this big honglu gradually evolved into being in charge of diplomatic affairs, so it became an important position in the court.

Under Dahonghe, there are pedestrians, interpreters and Biehuo three prime ministers.

Dahong's rank is two thousand stones, and the three ministers under his command are more than one thousand stones.

It was a last resort to let Cao Peng serve as the official translator, temporarily.Today's Dahonghe has not yet been established.However, Liu Ye has always been in charge of foreign affairs.Liu Ye and Cao Ji have a good relationship, and it won't be too much trouble for Cao Peng to be his part.

It's just that Cao Cao was a little annoyed, not only to Cao Peng, but also to Cao Zhi.

According to his plan, Lu's Han Kingdom came, and after he let Cao Peng secretly contact Lu's Han, he formally announced Cao Peng's pardon in the name of Lu's Han.After all, it is an investment from overseas, which is similar to the achievement of expanding the territory. For the imperial court, it is a huge achievement.At that time, it was logical to pardon Cao Peng.Even if someone in the court objects, Cao Cao has enough reasons to refute.

After Cao Peng was pardoned, he was appointed as the prefect of Nanyang County by taking advantage of the chaos in Nanyang.

Everything has been planned by Cao Cao.But I didn't expect such a sudden change.If Guo Yi hadn't rushed to report the news in a panic, Cao Cao still had a way to make up for it.But now... Cao Cao also knows that it is absolutely impossible to suppress this matter.

Dong Zhao couldn't help laughing, "Since the lord is determined, let him take care of himself.

Lu's Han Kingdom is surrounded on the left and right, even if Youxue is allowed to come out now, who can stop him?If Lu's Han Kingdom repents because of this, who will bear the responsibility.In my opinion, it would be better to let Youxue stand up, this way we can show our sincerity and make the Han Kingdom Lu belong to us.As for those with ulterior motives, they will definitely be blocked.Even if Lu's Han Kingdom is attached to them in the future, they will prevent the lord from pardoning Youxue.The result is the same, why should the lord worry too much?If there really is someone who doesn't have long eyes... Hehe, the lord doesn't need to bother. "

Cao Cao, silent!
Dong Zhao's meaning was very clear.

Your boss now holds a knife in his hand and is in power, why should he care what others say?
Regardless of whether Lu's Han Kingdom is affiliated or not, there will always be objections.You want to pardon Cao Peng, everyone, including the one in the imperial city, don't you know?Since everyone knows it well, why bother to cover it up.I just want to pardon Cao Peng, let's see who can stop me?
Speaking of it, Cao Cao's approach is a bit like a bitch erecting an archway.

He wanted to forgive, but he was afraid of being accused, so he came up with such an idea...

But the problem is, there are many people who don't like you and Cao Peng.No matter what you do, you won't end well, so why bother!
As long as you hold a knife in your hand and take charge of court affairs, let them have their say.

If you are really impatient, find an excuse and kill them, and see who dares to jump out and make irresponsible remarks again.

Dong Zhao had wanted to persuade Cao Cao in this way for a long time, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity.In his opinion, Cao Cao didn't need to have so many worries.Do what you want, as long as it can bring benefits to the country, why should you care about the accusations and questioning of those useless people?

Cao Cao felt the same way.

Ever since he took control of the court, obeyed the emperor's order to not be a minister, and moved the capital to Xu County, have there been fewer accusations?
If you are short of food and clothing, you will be accused of incompetence; if you practice farming, you will be said to be arrogant; if you have a good harvest, you will be scolded; It is called controlling the court and not making progress.

Anyway, no matter what he does, someone will jump out and clamor.

After coming and going, Cao Cao is really used to it!
You are yelling at you, what should I do or what should I do... Only this time, I don't know what happened, but I actually came up with such a trick.

I just want to pardon Cao Peng, whoever dares to stop me, I will kill his whole family.

When he was a teenager, he was a hero and absurd.

Cao Cao has never done anything, so how could he really care what others say.

Hearing Dong Zhao's words, Cao Cao suddenly became enlightened, and couldn't help laughing, "What Gongren said is very true, I just want to use Ah Fu.

Whoever blocks it, let him lay down a Liangzhou for me.

Otherwise, I am impatient for him to croak?Well, let’s do it like this, Gongren, you go to Yangqin immediately and ask him to inform Ziyang, and say that Cao Peng should be added as an interpreter to receive the envoy of Lu’s Han Dynasty with him.If anyone runs to him to object, let him come to me to argue. "

In those fine eyes, there was a flash of aura.

It seems that Lao Tzu's knife has not been stained with blood for a long time.If someone is ignorant and dares to sabotage my affairs, then don't blame me for being ruthless.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++
About an hour later, Guo Jia and Xun Yu returned to Sikong Mansion.

And when they arrived at the Sikong Mansion, Dian Wei had already brought Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu back, and they were kneeling in the hall, silent like cicadas.

Mrs. Bian and others also came, but no one spoke.

Cao Zhang, with a serious expression, held a horizontal knife in his hand, staring at Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu coldly; Cao Chong folded his hands in his big sleeves, said nothing, and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.As for Cao Zheng, Cao Xiong and other heirs, they all stayed in the same group obediently and dared not speak.

Cao Cao's eldest daughter, Cao Xian, second daughter, Cao Jie, and third daughter, Cao Hua, also came.

"what happened?"

Guo Jia couldn't help asking Dian Wei softly.

Dian Wei smiled wryly and said, "There was another commotion just now, which annoyed my lord."

"Who?"

Dian Wei glanced at Mrs. Huan and Mrs. Bian who were expressionless, and pointed at Cao Zhang secretly.

"Ziwen almost drew his sword to kill Zijian just now, but fortunately it was Mrs. Bian who stopped him, so nothing bigger happened.

Mrs. Huan said that Youxue is too arrogant and domineering, and should be punished severely.

However, Mrs. Bian said that Zijian was too frivolous, and it was absurd to come to ask someone for a concubine, no wonder Ah Fu got angry..."

When Dian Wei said this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"I don't understand, I really don't understand. Mrs. Huan speaks for Zijian, while Mrs. Bian pleads for Ah Fu. The two wives are fighting openly and secretly, almost on the table, which angered the lord. He arrested the whole family. , don't say anything, just stay here..."

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Huan and Mrs. Bian.

The little madam's bearing is still a bit small.

He could guess why Mrs. Huan wanted to speak for Cao Zhi.It's not that she wants to help Cao Zhi, but that she wants to push Cao Zhi into the fire pit...

After Guo Jia returned home, he asked the reason of the incident.

Cao Peng has not calmed down yet, so Mrs. Guo told the story exactly what happened.

This matter was originally no big deal.At least in Guo Jia's eyes, Cao Peng made a big fuss... Cao Zhi came to ask him for a concubine, not necessarily to humiliate Cao Peng, but a fashion of this era.Literati and scholars, it is elegant to give each other beautiful concubines, and sometimes it even becomes a good talk.For example, what is the beauty of an adult... Cao Cao has done this kind of thing in history.

He once married Lai Yinger, a master of singing and dancing in Xudu, as his concubine. Later, Yinger had an affair with Cao Cao's bodyguard Wang Tu. After Cao Cao heard about it, instead of killing Lai Yinger, he wanted to give Lai Yinger to Wang Tu.Of course, Yinger died later, which made Cao Cao very heartbroken.

But this also shows that in the upper class society, gifting beautiful concubines is a very common thing.

Uh……

Cao Cao has not yet married Yinger, but it is said that he is quite interested; and the guard Wang Tu who put the green hat on Cao Cao in the story has been killed by Cao Cao. I don’t know if this green hat will still be on Cao Cao’s head. .But this is not the key point, the key point is that this matter was originally nothing.Although Cao Zhi made a mistake, it was not a big mistake; although Cao Peng made a big fuss, he reacted because of his love for his concubine.If you put it on ordinary people or other people, at most it will be talked about by others.

But this happened to Cao Peng and Cao Zhi...

Mrs. Guo tried her best to explain the process from a fair perspective.But she is a woman, and she is extremely disgusted with this kind of exchange of concubines.So unconsciously, he deviated from his position, so Cao Zhi became a frivolous person, begging Cao Peng for Zhen Mi.

Mrs. Huan interceded for Cao Zhi, but she actually wanted to put Cao Zhi to death.

But Mrs. Bian is not a vegetarian either, she tried to resolve it with fights...and at this time, she still engages in this kind of infighting, which is purely to add chaos to Cao Cao.Therefore, Guo Jia felt that Mrs. Huan's tolerance was too small, and she was far inferior to Mrs. Bian.As for Cao Zhang... Guo Jia glanced at it, and the frizzy Huang Xuer nodded slightly.This child has a strong temperament and knows how to respect teachers, but he is a soft-hearted person.

If he comes from the heart, it is indeed good.

And Cao Chong's silence also showed that he was extraordinary.

He used silence to express his own point of view.There is something wrong with the fourth brother, but Cao Peng seems to be a little impulsive. On the one hand is his elder brother, and on the other is Cao Peng who once enlightened him.At this time, no matter which side he is on, it will only make things more complicated.

So, he was silent!

But this silence added a lot of points to him.

Guo Jia and Xun Yu looked at each other, and both of them couldn't help laughing bitterly.

Stepping into the flower hall, he saw Cao Cao sitting on the grand master's chair, tapping his forehead lightly.

Cao Cao suffered from migraines, especially when he was emotional, and the condition would become severe.

Seeing Guo Jia and Xun Yu coming in, he waved his hands to let them sit down, "What's going on?"

Although he heard Cao Zhi say it once, it was one person's opinion after all, and it would be biased.That's why he asked Guo Jia and Xun Yu to go back and inquire.

Guo Jia told Mrs. Guo what happened.

He is very fair, but Mrs. Guo's words already have such a bias, so Guo Jia and Xun Yu's statement naturally has a bias.

"This matter is indeed presumptuous by Zijian."

Cao Cao suddenly said angrily, "Just presumptuous? In my opinion, he is a frivolous person!"

"My lord, calm down."

Cao Cao closed his eyes and let out a long breath.

"Compared to Zihuan, Zijian is extremely talented and much higher. However, Zihuan was 12 years old, and he followed me to fight against Wancheng. Without these experiences, it would be difficult to become successful with those frivolous rascals all day long. Unfortunately, Ziwen lost his recklessness, and his temperament was too violent. Although he started to study now, this temperament is difficult to change for a while; Cang Shu is smart , not inferior to Zijian, and he is calm when things happen, but there is a trace of meanness and ungratefulness."

Cao Cao rarely talked about family affairs in front of his courtiers.

Now that this topic was suddenly brought up, Guo Jia and Xun Yu were taken aback.

"My lord..."

Cao Cao sat up straight, waved his hands and said, "That's the end of this matter.

Tomorrow morning, I will order someone to send Zijian to Chang'an to study, and let Ziwen go to Shenhuting to practice with Wenyuan; as for Cang Shu, I thought I would let him stay at home, follow his temperament, and not limit his freedom. growing up.But looking at it now, it seems to be biased... It may not be a good thing for him to stay in Xudu.At his age, he should stay in school and study instead of working behind closed doors at home.

Wen Ruo, I have something to bother you. Please ask Yuan Chang to tell Cang Shu to study at Yingchuan Academy incognito.

One should be like an ordinary student, not to give him any care... In the past two years, I have neglected family affairs, but it seems that I have to ask. "

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he stood up and bowed to Xun Yu.
