Cao Thief

Chapter 626 Jingzhou affairs, ruled by Jing people

Sitting upright in the living room, Kuai Zheng looked at the heroic young man in front of him, and couldn't help feeling that things in this world are impermanent.

Back then, who would have thought that that frail young man would have such an achievement now?At the beginning, because of the Pang family's love in Lumen Mountain, he gave Cao Peng's family a care.But I don't want to think about today, but relying on the Cao family to make a comeback, it's really emotional.

However, Kuai Zheng was very happy, and Cao Peng still missed him.

When he recognized him, Cao Peng was very excited and held his hand, refusing to let go.

Even the old housekeeper was respected by Cao Peng, so he insisted on arranging a seat for the old housekeeper.In the Eastern Han Dynasty, respect was emphasized.If it were another person, Cao Peng would immediately walk away with this attitude towards the old housekeeper, even thinking that Cao Peng was humiliating him.But Kuai Zheng is different... He has gone through ups and downs in the past ten years, and all those who followed him ran away. Only this old housekeeper followed him and took care of him.In Kuai Zheng's heart, the old butler was not a slave, but his most trusted relative.

Cao Peng's respect for the old housekeeper, in Kuai Zheng's view, just shows Cao Peng's nostalgia.

"Brother Boping, I asked someone to inquire about you later, but I learned that Brother Boping was recalled to Xiangyang. I don't know how it is now?"

Cao Peng is really happy.

It is definitely a happy event to meet an old friend again.

Back then, Kuai Zheng treated his family well, and he kept this love in his heart.

Unexpectedly, when Kuaizheng heard it, he showed a bitter smile.

"Speaking of it, it's hard to say."

I roughly told Cao Peng about what happened in the past ten years, which made Cao Peng sigh.

"Speaking of which, even though I was forced by Huang She to take down your father's family back then, I have never felt very comfortable in my heart. Although I tried my best to get justice back, but the Huang family was so powerful. And my status in the clan is not high, so it is useless.

Thinking about it, I am ashamed of having so many virtuous brothers. "

Everyone can say beautiful words, and Kuai Zheng, as a disciple of the Kuai family, naturally understands the art of speaking.

He talked about the trivial things in the past, but he didn't blame Cao Peng for getting himself into trouble, but only said that he failed to protect Cao Ji's family and felt guilty.

The more guilty he is, the more guilty Cao Peng is.

Regardless of Kuai Zheng's motives at the time, he wanted to protect the interests of his family.But after all, he suffered so many years because of himself.ten years!Counting the days, it was a full ten years before going to Nine Girls City.How many decades can a person have?What's more, it was Kuai Zheng's most critical ten years... Now, Kuai Zheng is in his thirties.But the aging appearance looks like 30 years old.

Cao Peng gritted his teeth and said: "Brother, if you want to say the word shame, wouldn't it be frustrating for you to say that?

Now that brother is here, don't leave!Although the younger brother is not talented, he has not been able to grow up with his elder brother, but he is still a little sure of getting ahead.As for those who humiliated you back then, it's not that they didn't report, the time has not yet come.One day, the younger brother will seek justice for his elder brother. "

Upon hearing this, the old butler quickly got up to thank him.

"Mr. Peng, my son doesn't need any justice, but I just ask Mr. Peng to come forward and get my son and master back."

"how?"

"At the beginning, the Young Madam broke the engagement with the Young Master, and took the Young Master away together.

My young master thinks about it day and night, hoping to meet the young master again.However, Mrs. Young's family is very powerful, and the family is unwilling to stand up for the young master, so that the young master... the young master has nothing to ask for, but only hopes that the young master will not take other people's surnames and insult the reputation of his ancestors. "

Cao Peng raised his head and looked at Kuai Zheng.

After a long while, he sighed softly, "Dare to ask that woman's family and origin?"

"It's the Lingling Liu family."

Lingling Liu family?

Isn't that Zhou Buyi's mother's family?
Cao Peng frowned, and after pondering for a moment, suddenly said loudly: "Uncle, are you there?"

"Son!"

Du Ji hurried into the hall and bowed to salute.

Cao Peng said: "Take my name as an assassin, and immediately send people to Wuling to talk to Liu Xianzhi, the prefect of Wuling, and tell him that Liu's family should hand over brother Boping's son. I owe him a favor."

As the prefect of Wuling, Liu Xian belongs to the typical Cao faction.

He is very inclined to the Cao family, and he is favored by Cao Cao, so he has the post of Wuling prefect.

Although Liu Xian is not a leader in the Liu clan.But the status is not too low... After all, even Liu Ba, the most outstanding talent in the Liu family, cannot be compared with a senior official with a salary of two thousand shi.It is also because of this that Liu Xian still has some weight when speaking in the family.Cao Peng and Liu Xian have no friendship at all.But this does not prevent Liu Xian from being willing to make friends with Cao Peng.

What's more, Cao Peng is no longer a criminal.

The prefect of Nanyang who is really two thousand stones is two ranks higher than Liu Xian, the prefect of Wuling who is worth two thousand stones...

Kuai Zheng couldn't help crying, stood up and bowed to the ground.

"The kindness and righteousness of a good brother will never be forgotten."

Cao Peng said with a smile: "Brother Boping, you and I have known each other for ten years, so don't say anything that is so vain.

When you and my brother meet today, we must get drunk.

However, I believe that Bo Ping must have a mission in coming to me.You just say it's okay, if you can agree, I will never refuse... After discussing the business, I will ask the old housekeeper to report back.You stay here, and when I get familiar with the situation, I must make a proper arrangement with Brother Boping. "

When Cao Peng spoke, he didn't beat around the bush, but straight to the point.

But the more so, the more excited Kuai Zheng was.

He took a deep breath and said to Cao Peng: "My dear brother, I really don't know how I got to this day when I talk like you."

In the words, it was a little more relaxed, and even made fun of Cao Peng.

"Beating around the bush, I will also...

But it depends on who it is for.If you are not familiar with him, or if you don't like him, I don't mind flirting with him.But my brother and I are old friends.Talking to friends, why play tricks?If you have that spirit, you might as well drink two cups to enjoy yourself. "

When Kuai Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but smile.

"I came here this time to send a letter under the orders of the elders of the clan."

Kuai was talking and looked at the old housekeeper.

But the old butler took off the cloth robe on his body, tore open the jacket, took out a letter, and presented it to Cao Peng with both hands.

Cao Peng took the letter, opened it face to face, and read it quickly.

Kuai Liang didn't say anything big in his mind, he just said that he has a nephew, Kuai Zheng, and I heard that you are old friends with Mr. Cao.Now that he is in Jingxiang, he doesn't have a bright future, so he wants to ask Mr. Cao to arrange for him, so that he can have a care in the future.The letter also mentioned Pang Degong, saying that Degong was not in good health when he came in, and asked him to bring a letter with Cao Peng, asking if he could read "Shangshu" through.

In the beginning, Mr. Pang De granted Cao Peng the "Book of History", to some extent, he had already recognized Cao Peng as a disciple.

It's just a trick of good fortune, and Cao Peng later became a teacher of Hu Zhao...

In Kuai Liang's letter, there is nothing about official affairs, but there is a different meaning everywhere.

After Cao Peng finished reading the letter, he fell silent.

He roughly understood what Kuai Liang meant, but in fact, he hoped not to raise up swordsmen in Jingxiang to keep the peace in Jingxiang.

"Old butler."

"Sir, what are your orders?"

"I trouble you to go back and tell Mr. Liang that it is only a hope that my friend came out of Nanyang under the order of the imperial court, and there is no malice in returning Jingxiang to peace. But, since ancient times, there is no king in the world... I came here by order However, there are two prefects in Nanyang. It is very difficult for me to say that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Now the prime minister is conquering the northern border for the rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty.

But there are always some Xiaoxiao Xiaoxiao, who tell right and wrong secretly and stir up wind and rain.

There have been constant wars in Nanyang these years. Liu Jingzhou and the prime minister were both sensible people, but the villain made troubles, so that the conflicts continued.As a result, it is only possible that our people in Jingxiang will be devastated... This is definitely not what I expected, nor is it what Liang Gong expected.I have always believed that Jingzhou affairs are governed by Jing people.I think of Jingxiang Nine Counties, since ancient times, it is a place where elites come forth in large numbers.Why today, you have to look at the eyes of outsiders and be instigated by outsiders?This is the misfortune of Jingzhou and the misfortune of Jing people. "

Cao Peng's words definitely hit the nail on the head.

Even Kuai was at the side, nodding repeatedly.

"Your brother's words are not bad. Jingzhou affairs are governed by Jing people. Why do we need outsiders to intervene?"

Who is this outsider referring to?
it goes without saying……

Cao Peng didn't explain it, and Kuai Zheng didn't say it, but everyone knew it well: Liu Bei!
Jingzhou affairs are governed by Jing people.

Cao Peng undoubtedly told Kuai Liang clearly about his principles and policies, and even the principles and policies that Cao Cao will implement in the future.And these six words are also the key.The old housekeeper heard Cao Peng and Kuai Zheng mention these six words repeatedly, how could he not understand the meaning?
As for the other words, just memorize them.

The key is that these six words must not be misremembered...

It was impossible for Cao Peng to give Kuai Liang a written response, and that was not what Kuai Liang wanted to see.

As long as there are these six words, the old housekeeper is enough to explain to Kuai Liang.

"So, the old servant leaves immediately."

"slow!"

Cao Peng called the old housekeeper and asked someone to fetch a gorgeous new dress, which he would personally put on the old housekeeper's body in the future.

"Young master, how do you do this?"

"Old butler, when my brother-in-law and I went to the Nine Girls City, you, the old butler, saw you off in person. This kind of affection, I will keep it in my heart. I have asked people to arrange carriages and horses to send the old butler back. See Liang Your Majesty, I also hope that the old housekeeper will come back soon. I believe that brother Boping will miss you very much, so don't let him worry too much. When the old housekeeper returns, brother Boping will have a bright future."

Hearing this, the old housekeeper couldn't help but burst into tears.

He has been loyal all his life, and what he hopes for is that Kuai Zheng will rise to the top one day.

"Please don't worry, Mr. Peng, the old servant wants to come back early, and enjoy two days of happiness with you..."

Kuai was at the side, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
After the old housekeeper left, Cao Peng held a banquet in the mansion to welcome Kuai Zheng.

He was not in a hurry to make arrangements for Kuai Zheng, and Kuai Zheng didn't ask either.That night, Kuai Zheng stayed in the mansion, waiting for the old housekeeper to come back.

After traveling all the way, Kuai Zheng was really tired.

In addition, he drank a lot of wine, so that he fell into a deep sleep when he returned to his room.

Cao Peng couldn't fall asleep. After drinking a bowl of hangover soup, he went to the study and looked through the official documents.

Before you know it, it's already dark.

Just when Cao Peng was about to blow out the lights and go to rest, he heard someone knocking on the door of the study, "Uncle, I have something to discuss with you."
