We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?
Chapter 252 Digging a hole for Cao Pi and Cao Zhen? The second son of the Prime Minister who is forg
After all, the cost of living here is very good.
For example, this small courtyard where they live.
There are also some exquisite facilities installed inside, such as some tap water systems made of wood and ceramic tiles. Go to the drinking room and turn on the faucet to get water.
Even Cao Pi could say without hesitation that even in a prosperous capital like Xuchang, there are no such things.
Cao Pi sighed, broke off another weed, bent it in his hand, and then smiled: "Zidan, to be honest, I really don't want my father and my uncle to have a grudge because of those Cao family clan members!"
Cao Zhen sighed, and then said: "I'm not talking about you, I am also the one who was elected, and I must follow them when I speak!"
"These clan members are actually more difficult to tell!"
"What's so hard to say? I know very well in my heart that they are just afraid that the benefits of sharing their profits will be reduced!"
"You are indeed right to say that, but if all the credit in the world goes to Master Xiyu, it will be very dangerous for us here!"
"But he has already made great contributions!"
Cao Pi twitched the corner of his mouth: "Now that we have turned against each other for the sake of profit, we can't tell what the outcome will be!"
"If the clan still dares to persecute you, my father will definitely get angry! But I will only tell you this matter."
Cao Zhen's eyes flashed with bitterness: "There's nothing wrong with what you said. They only care about themselves and have no idea of the overall situation!"
"The world has not yet come into our hands, but we are already thinking about finding cunning rabbits and dead lackeys to cook! This really makes me feel a little depressed!"
Both of them looked a little tired, but they knew very well that this was inevitable.
If you don't take precautions, various complicated situations will still occur in the future.
To be honest, when the great cause is not yet prosperous, it is a very reasonable thing to respect one's subordinates.
But now, the clan forces have also shown their fangs.
Their idea is to obtain the greatest rights and become the most noble existence, and what is funny is a major obstacle on the way to achieving their wishes.
"Let's go and take a look tomorrow. We first have to take a look at the so-called Academy of Sciences. This is also one of our biggest goals along the way."
"OK."
The two of them went back to their rooms to rest, but they were destined to not sleep well tonight.
On the next day, Xi Yu took Cao Pi to meet Mingli in Xuzhou, including Yuan Huan, Kong Rong and others.
But Xi Yu had something to do at night, so he could only leave the matter to Cao Ang.
He had just finished school now. After taking his brothers to look around, he talked to them about some of the current educational concepts in Xuzhou.
“Today, more than 100 counties in Xuzhou have built specialized county schools.”
"In these schools, the concept of teaching without distinction is also thoroughly implemented. As long as someone is willing to learn, they will have this opportunity, which also allows them to keep pace with the times and not be eliminated."
"Keep pace with the times and not be eliminated?"
Surprise flashed in Cao Pi's eyes: "But the key question is that if everyone can study, then everyone can become an official, and then we, the people of the clan, can't we?"
Cao Ang's eyes were very serious: "You have to be clear about one thing. It is beneficial to us to spread the bachelor's degree."
"You can take a look at the current situation in Xuzhou. The people and people are well-educated, so there will be more talents and better development."
"I won't rest on my laurels and claim to be noble."
Although Cao Pi felt that this was reasonable, he always felt vaguely unhappy.
If the common people learn these things, everyone will have the opportunity to become an official.
They are all qualified to be investigated, so how to distinguish between good and bad?
He didn't dare to say anything more.
After all, Cao Ang is his eldest brother.
Afterwards, they had to go to the Academy of Sciences to check on the situation.
If Xi Yu is not here, Cao Ang can go in, but they can't go to Tiangongyuan. They can only go in during the day when there are people.
When they came out, they happened to meet Huang Xu and Jia Ji.
"It's you again!"
Huang Xu's expression was still a little surprised, and he specially greeted Cao Pi: "Second Young Master, do you still remember me?"
"Of course I recognize it."
Cao Pi saluted slightly: "Huang Xu, I have heard of your reputation. In terms of seniority, we can be considered peers, and we can be called brothers."
"That makes perfect sense."
Huang Xu laughed, and then said: "We just left not long ago. If I remember correctly, you must be here to see the Academy of Sciences!"
Cao Ang smiled slightly: "That's right."
"But if I remember correctly, eldest son, aren't you going to take part in the science review?"
"Just postpone it a little, this matter is more important."
Cao Ang's expression was dull.
"Either way, let's go like this. Jia Ji and I will take the second young master there. We are quite free now. If nothing happens, we plan to drink."
"After we take him in directly for a visit, we'll have a drink together."
Cao Ang thought about it and realized that this was actually the case. He was a member of the Cao family, and the Academy of Sciences here was one of the most important places in Xiyu. If he took Cao Pi in, he might be in trouble.
But the two people in front of him were different.
They are both the sons of Xi Yu's confidants, and their relationship with Xi Yu is even more intimate. They are even directly related to foster father and adopted son. Their relationship is naturally deep, and there is no need to avoid suspicion.
"That's it, I'm sorry to bother you two! I'll find a wine shop first and prepare a sumptuous banquet for you, and then I'll go to the Science Review!"
The corner of Huang Xu's lips curled up, and then he said: "If you can, go to the waterside pavilion and help me find Miss Liulu!"
"Fine!"
Cao Pi's mouth twitched, why did he feel that this Huang Xu was a bit unserious!
But why wouldn't he be told by his elders!
Why do I suddenly feel a little envious!
Damn it!
Cao Pi suddenly felt a little scared in his heart. Why was he so greedy for pleasure?
No, no!
Absolutely not!
If my father found out about this, I'm afraid he would be beaten up.
Absolutely not!
Sima Yi's expression was very happy. He finally came to Xuzhou. He would be really sorry if he didn't have a good time.
Huang Xu and the others turned around and took them in to take a look.
To be honest, Jia Ji is quite confusing on the surface and feels very gentle and reliable.
Huang Xu is handsome and has a cool temperament, and he seems to be an easy person to get along with.
They first took Cao Pi to the Academy of Sciences. The courtyard was very large, exquisitely decorated, and elegantly arranged, quite like a luxurious garden.
If no one is carrying it, it may even get lost.
It didn't take long for them to go to the Craftsman's Yard, and outside they could feel the sound of forging iron coming from inside.
Moreover, they also saw a boy at the door, no more than a teenager, pointing over there.
"Is there such a small craftsman?"
"You may not think that he is young, but he is actually very talented."
Huang Xu smiled slightly, walked in, and took out another utensil.
"What is this?"
"This thing is called carbonite tube, and it is used to make bearings. After the bearings are modified, the code will be fast, accurate and stable!"
“Even grindstones and a lot of other tools can use it.”
When Huang Xu spoke, Jia Ji smiled.
"But this thing is light and brittle! You must be careful."
As soon as Cao Pi touched it with his hand, he saw that the thing shattered with a click, and there was only a handful left in his hand.
"What's going on?"
"What!" Huang Xu's expression changed at that time, and the eyes of other craftsmen also changed. They glanced here again, and their faces became horrified again.
Jia Ji trembled all over, frightened and angry: "How could this be broken!"
"This is our hard work for half a year!"
Huang Xu's expression changed, and then he said in a cold voice: "Second Young Master, I brought you here without any worries. Are you embarrassed to do such a thing?"
"If this thing is destroyed, I don't know how to tell Master!"
"Not only will the Marquis deal with me, but my father will even be punished by military law!"
"This, this, my uncle shouldn't be like this, right?"
Cao Pi was panicked in his heart, confused in his mind, and didn't know what to do.
He felt as if he had gotten into a big trouble.
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that something was not right.
What a coincidence!
How could it be such a coincidence?
Although Cao Pi had doubts in his heart, he could not accuse Huang Xu face to face, otherwise his reputation would be in trouble and everyone would think he was narrow-minded.
He has no evidence!
And the young man from before suddenly turned around again, his eyes widened, and the anger in his heart was about to explode.
He shouted coldly: "You bastard! Do you know how long and hard it took us to make this bearing?"
"Every craftsman here is a famous master craftsman. We have spent so much effort and wasted so many resources just for such a bearing!"
"You may not think it looks like this, but it is indeed easily destroyed!"
"How could you be so careless?"
"I, I don't think it's a big deal with him!"
Cao Pi's eyes were frightened and his scalp was numb.
And some of the craftsmen over there were very angry.
On the loft next to him, Xi Yu couldn't help but laugh when he saw the scene in front of him, and said to Huang Zhong and Jia Xu next to him: "Why do these two kids from your family have such bad personalities?"
Huang Zhong and Jia Xu laughed and looked at Xi Yu without saying anything.
Who raised such a thief's character? Don't you know it yourself?
"This is just a trick! We shouldn't have carbon tubes, right? And the bearing carbon tubes are useless!"
Jia Xu sighed: "That is to say, Master Cao Ang is not here now, so they can catch Cao Pi and bully him!"
"I'm going to take care of him now!"
Huang Zhong was angry. Although he couldn't beat Huang Xu, Huang Xu couldn't resist.
But he didn't actually feel too angry. To be honest, he still wanted to have some fun.
In the yard over there, those people were still in a confrontation.
Pu Yuan was very angry and yelled: "Why are you young masters so outrageous!"
"A person who is industrious and does not distinguish between grains and grains! He only knows how to cause trouble!"
"Do you know how much effort we put into this? Half a year of hard work has been ruined by you!"
Pu Yuan even sat on the ground and cried, which was heartbreaking to watch.
Huang Xu and Jia Xu didn't know how Pu Yuan could pretend so well. They felt that he was really sincere.
"It's so presumptuous!"
Cao Zhen's eyes were cold and he was about to draw his sword.
His eyes were alert and he looked at the people next to him. Pu Yuan was even angry: "Where are the guards?"
"My subordinate is here!"
There were still several men with cold expressions and black armor standing at the door. They rushed over and surrounded the two of them.
Cao Zhen and Cao Pi were very panicked, and they didn't know what would happen now!
Cao Pi turned his attention to Huang Xu again: "Brother Ling Xiao! You are familiar with my identity, and you also know that I will not do this on purpose!"
"If you dare to stop me, you're doomed!"
Pu Yuan's eyes were cold and he said to Huang Xu: "This matter is of great importance, and it won't be easy for anyone to come!"
"If you dare to come, I will kill you too!"
Huang Xu's body trembled, his face turned pale, and he took two steps back.
Jia Ji's expression turned a little pale, and the two of them turned their attention to Cao Pi again and shook their heads, feeling that there was nothing they could do.
"It has nothing to do with me at this time, so don't blame me!"
What Jia Ji and Huang Xu said confused Cao Pi and Cao Zhen.
What's going on?
Who is this child?
Why can't even these two people be stopped!
Cao Zhen's eyes were almost confused, and he even scolded Huang Xu in his heart for being a coward!
You were riding a horse in the street yesterday! Why do you look like this now?
Can a child scare you?
"Catch them directly. If they can't be beaten to death, then beat them to death!"
"Stop it!"
Cao Zhen looked cold and said in a cold voice: "Stop messing around!"
But after he said these two words, three hundred craftsmen ran over and surrounded them. Moreover, each of these three hundred craftsmen had tall horses and big hands and hammers, and they looked very scary.
"We are from the Cao family!"
"This is my lord's biological son, your second son. Stop it now!"
"Zi Dan, Zi Dan, stop them first!"
"After you did something wrong, not only did you not apologize to us, you also threatened us!"
Pu Yuan's expression was very ugly: "This is the first time I've seen such shameless guys like you!"
"Kill them!"
Pu Yuan's eyes were red and he gritted his teeth.
"I am willing to compensate!"
Cao Pi collapsed and could only plead here.
Although he didn't know who this child was, he could tell something about the situation from the reactions of Huang Xu and Jia Ji.
This kid is not simple.
"Why do you say such things? Can you compensate? You bastard, you don't understand how much effort we have put in! Huang Xu, please tell me clearly, why do you bring them here, just to cause trouble? you!"
"How are you going to pay us back half a year?"
Although Pu Yuan looks young, he is covered in tendons.
Moreover, he has a great reputation in the Craftsman Academy, and everyone is convinced.
Cao Pi almost fainted at that time.
A lawless guy like Huang Xu will be scolded by this kid!
Then I guess I really got into trouble!
"We are willing to compensate. May I ask what this young gentleman's name is?"
"My name is Pu Yuan."
"Okay, little brother Pu, I am not only a member of the Cao family, but also the son of the prime minister. I will try to compensate you as much as I can. Don't be nervous!"
"Send someone to get the money!"
Pu Yuan's expression was very cold: "Regardless of time, the materials and effort we consumed are worth thirty thousand gold!"
"You two have to keep the iron for me, so that you can experience the hard work we have put in before!"
"Otherwise, you won't be able to finish the work!"
"good."
Cao Pi was about to vomit blood, and he was very depressed. He wanted to look at Sima Yi and said, "Sir, take the things we brought here. Take as much as you can, and pay for some first!"
"That's okay! That's okay too!"
Sima Yi was quite scared, but he was also thankful that he didn't touch that thing just now.
Thirty thousand gold!
It's not even worth selling him for so much money!
However, Sima Yi realized something when he turned around. This must be a trap.
If it was not intentional, Master Xi would probably already be here if such a big situation happened.
But they have no way to escape. After all, they do occupy a disadvantageous position, and the problem still needs to be solved.
Sima Yi felt extremely bitter in his heart. He did not expect that he would be involved in such a mess and create such a situation!
He could only quickly fetch his belongings. He brought almost everything over and asked the guards over there to count it.
Although the Pu Yuan inside is just a child, children are the most difficult to deal with because they are irrational and immature!
Sima Yi came back not long after, holding a handful of deeds in his hand, followed by several soldiers carrying some boxes, and the boxes were filled with jewelry and jade.
After he went to the door and knocked a few times, they were all stunned when they saw the scene inside.
The second young master and General Cao have already started to work and are forging iron over there.
After Sima Yi passed by, he felt a little angry: "You can't do such a thing!"
"After all, he is the Prime Minister's biological son, so he can't be like this!"
"Second Young Master, I've brought the money, you'd better stop doing it!"
As soon as Sima Yi came over, the door was closed, and then the guards surrounded him and started beating him violently.
Huang Xu and Jia Ji were quite happy in their hearts, but they pretended to be anxious on the surface: "Don't fight!"
"This is our guest, how can we treat him like this? You guys should be calm for a moment!"
Cao Pi and Cao Zhen had bitter eyes, and they were quite depressed in their hearts, but they couldn't blame Huang Xu. After all, this matter had nothing to do with them and they still had to worry about it.
Cao Zhen is forging iron and Cao Pi is encouraging. The work here is not something they can easily finish.
They also saw people around them, and there were even people supervising them.
The bitterness in the hearts of these two people is really unspeakable.
After suffering a loss and paying the money, I still have to work here.
After struggling all night, the two of them felt that their hands were going to be useless.
Especially Cao Pi, he was not a martial artist, and he didn't exercise much. When he was forging iron, he felt like he was being tortured!
