Chapter 34: Cao Cao's Temptation

Whether it is the official history or the wild history, Cao Cao's height has not been recorded. However, they are all biased towards the view that Cao Cao is short in height, and even think that Cao Cao's height is only 1.55 meters.

This is obviously ridiculous, in the era of Yuan Chang's previous life, he advocated every day not to judge people by appearance, but to pay attention to heart and ability, but there are still many people who judge people by appearance. In today's era of paying attention to appearance, if Cao Cao is really only six and a half feet, how can strategists and fierce generals take refuge in him? Not to mention how can Emperor Han Ling let him be one of the eight captains of the West Garden? You must know that Emperor Han Ling is an emperor who attaches great importance to appearance, and the ten permanent attendants around him are all handsome people, and even the eunuchs are required to look good, not to mention the eight captains of the West Garden, who is his own army?

Cao Cao's short stature is definitely impossible, at least not only one and a half meters. However, it is definitely not very tall. Otherwise, why is there no record in the history books? There is only one reason, that is, Cao Cao is not very tall, so he deliberately omitted it.

In ancient times, the average height per capita was about seven and a half feet, which is one meter eight. In Yuan Chang's previous life, the average height was about 1.7 meters, and more than 1.8 meters was relatively strong. Some people may say that Yuan Chang's previous life was technologically advanced, and the nutritional level was so high, what cover in the cover, giant energy cover, super energy cover, brain platinum, kidney platinum and so on are countless, it stands to reason that the height is stronger than in ancient times, right?

Actually, this is not true.

It is precisely because of the harsh environment and the lack of development of science and technology in ancient times that the people had to fight against heaven and earth and fierce beasts, and their physical fitness would naturally not be bad. In particular, the croppers and women who are in the world are much stronger than ordinary people. is Yuan Chang's ancestors, in the early days of the Republic of China and the Anti-Japanese War, he could eat a pound of rice at every meal. However, when the conditions became better, there were more choices for eating and drinking, and they couldn't eat half a catty of rice, not to mention a catty of rice. Therefore, it is reasonable that the height of people in ancient times was higher than the average height of people in Yuan Chang's previous life.

Cao Cao was seven feet long, below the average at the time, and it was said that he was short.

Of course, before Yuan Chang crossed, there were bricks and beasts who announced that they had found Cao Cao's tomb, and Cao Cao's height was only 1.55 meters according to the skeletal research. However, Yuan Chang has always laughed at the remarks of special groups such as the brick family and the beast.

First of all, the height of people in the prime of life is not the same as in the twilight of life, and Cao Cao is suffering from illness, and he must be thinner when he is older than when he was young; secondly, when Cao Cao died, it was nearly 2,000 years before the bricks and beasts found his tomb; and finally, it is also very doubtful whether the tomb was really Cao Cao's.

Because, these words were said by the brick family and the beast, Yuan Chang had to doubt it.

"Brother Yuan Changwu, I don't want you to be so old, so I entrusted you with a heavy responsibility at the beginning. Think about it at that time, I and Ben Chu were also famous in Luoyang, but it was notorious, hahaha!"

Cao Cao took the lead, and before anyone approached, his enthusiastic smiling face and words were already surging towards Yuan Chang.

Cao Cao's enthusiastic reaction immediately puzzled everyone. Don't talk about others, even Yuan Chang himself is puzzled. In the memory of his predecessor, there seems to be no record of correspondence with Cao Cao, what is this Cao Cao so enthusiastic for?

"The Deputy Alliance Leader..."

"Huh!"

Cao Cao's face pulled, he interrupted Yuan Chang's words dissatisfiedly, stretched out his hand to pull Yuan Chang to his side, and said kindly: "My brother, I have been friends with Ben Zheng and have known each other for thirty years. Plainly, I and the original are both called brothers, and you are both the original brother and my brother. If my brother doesn't dislike it, just call out to my brother, why do you need to do this. If my brother looks down on him as a brother, he will do it!"

Saying that, Cao Cao pretended to be unsafe, as if he was despised by Yuan Chang.

The two guards who followed Cao Cao were all strong men who were nearly eight feet tall, and when they saw Cao Cao's little daughter-in-law looking wronged, they immediately looked at Yuan Chang with an angry face. As the so-called lord worries about the humiliation of his ministers, Yuan often looks down on Cao Cao, that is, he looks down on them. The two of them put on a posture, as long as Cao Cao gave the order, the two of them could immediately behead Yuan Chang under the knife.

"Step, step!"

Cao Cao has guards, but where is Yuan Chang gone?

Seeing that the two guards around Cao Cao wanted to be unfavorable to Yuan Chang, Zhao Yun and Han Sui took a step forward, staring at the two opposites with their eyes tight, the two sides looked at each other, sparks burst out, and the situation was about to erupt.

"Brother said this, if Yuan Chang still didn't agree, wouldn't it be a joke. The elder brother is above, and the younger brother is worshipped!"

After speaking, Yuan Chang was very solemn and solemn to Cao Cao and made a brotherly salute, and when he got up, he had an uncontrollable smile on his face, and seemed to be extremely happy to recognize Cao Cao as his brother.

When Yuan Chang saluted, Cao Cao bowed slightly, looking arrogant, and Zhao Yun and Han Xun were annoyed. However, Yuan Chang didn't seem to be unhappy with a smile on his face, so the two didn't say anything. However, it is necessary for the two to look depressed. Just as Cao Cao's two guards thought, the lord was worried about the humiliation of his ministers, and now that Yuan Chang was being bullied by Cao Cao like this, he was bullying them. And the reason why this is so is because their power is not strong enough, if Yuan Shao is here, how can Cao Cao dare to accept the courtesy so calmly?

It is precisely because of today's humiliation that Zhao Yun and Han Sui will be even more angry in the future, so that today's situation will not appear for the second time. If Yuan Chang knew this, he would probably thank Cao Cao for sharpening the two generals for him.

On this side, Zhao Yun and Han Sui were furious, and Cao Cao himself was also puzzled.

Yesterday, in Yuan Shao's account, the princes were deliberating, and Yuan Chang suddenly burst out with a sentence that interrupted the discussion of the princes. At that time, Cao Cao didn't care, and like the other princes, he thought the same thing, thinking that this Yuan Chang was just a sycophant. However, after going back, Cao Cao thought about it and felt that something was wrong, thinking that Yuan Chang was doing it on purpose. It's just that when all the princes were deliberating, Yuan Chang suddenly jumped out, wasn't he afraid of being punished, and even his life was in danger if it was serious, thinking about it, Cao Cao felt that Yuan Chang's behavior seemed to be a hidden mystery. However, what is the purpose, Cao Cao does not understand.

Of course, how could Cao Cao understand that Yuan Chang had discovered Yuan Shu's killing intentions and made this stubble, just to confirm whether Yuan Shao also had killing intentions against him. Moreover, he has already calculated the back road before he dares to jump out, which is the advantage of the traverser, being able to understand the personality traits of some people.

It was precisely because he felt that Yuan Chang was hiding something that Cao Cao had just tried it, but he didn't find any problems. Cao Cao thought to himself, could it be that he was too suspicious?

[PS: Some people may say that it is an exaggeration to say that eating a pound of rice for a meal is an exaggeration, but it is really not an exaggeration. Unbelievers can ask their grandparents at home, they farm and chop firewood every day, and there is no problem at all with eating a pound at a meal. Of course, if you are from the city and have not gone up the mountain or down the ground, then it is needless to say. 】
