Chapter 187: I want to marry Hongchang Xu County and seek fame
After learning about Ren Hongchang's life experience, Wang Kai suddenly said: "I didn't expect Hongchang to have such a past, so I don't know what you plan to do now?" ”
Seeing Wang Kai suddenly say this, Ren Hongchang and Cai Yan were very surprised.
Immediately after, Cai Yan asked: "Husband, are you going to drive Sister Hongchang away?" ”
"It's not a rush, Hongchang's appearance before was just a personal maid of Wen Ji, and it makes sense for me to keep her, but now Hongchang's appearance has changed greatly, I can't still forcibly keep it!"
As soon as she heard this, Ren Hongchang suddenly felt that her life was miserable, she first suffered a change in her family and was alone, and then she was on the run again after not being at ease for long in the Cai family, when she finally looked forward to living a stable life, Wang Kai wanted to drive her away again.
Thinking of the bitterness, Ren Hongchang's tears soaked out of his eyes.
Seeing Ren Hongchang crying, Cai Yan said with rare anger: "Husband, although Sister Hongchang is called my personal maid, she is as close as a sister to me, why did you drive her away?" ”
Seeing that Cai Yan was a little angry, Wang Kai hurriedly explained: "Wen Ji, it's not that I want to drive her, it's really that she, a beautiful woman like a flower, lives in a nameless mansion that will inevitably cause criticism, and I am also for the good of Hongchang." ”
Hearing Wang Kai say this, Cai Yan and Ren Hongchang understood what Wang Kai meant.
Ren Hongchang wiped away his tears.
At this time, Cai Yan said to Wang Kai: "Husband, if you are worried about this, I have a solution. ”
"Wen Ji, please speak!"
"Husband, you might as well include Sister Hongchang in the room!"
"What?"
Wang Kai, who shouted, was immediately shocked, because he really didn't expect Cai Yan to say this.
When Cai Yan saw Wang Kai's surprised look, she asked tentatively, "Isn't the husband unwilling?" ”
"Wen Ji, I'm naturally willing, but ......"
"Husband, if you are worried about me, then please rest assured, Sister Hongchang and I are like sisters."
Seeing Cai Yan trying his best to match, Ren Hongchang was very grateful to Cai Yan in his heart, and after Wang Kai thought about it, he abandoned his own shackles, because it was normal to have three wives and four concubines in ancient times, not to mention that his goal was the Ninety-Five Honor.
After getting Wang Kai's affirmative reply, Ren Hongchang's heart finally settled down, because she could marry Wang Kai and she could be regarded as relying on it.
After deciding it, Wang Kai immediately said: "Since I promised Hongchang to marry her, then let's set an auspicious day for the zodiac!" Although this time it is impossible to hold a grand wedding for Hongchang like Wen Ji, it is still no problem to hold a small wedding. ”
When Ren Hongchang heard this, he hurriedly replied: "General, the little girl is now a lowly person, I am afraid that it is not in line with the etiquette for you to hold a wedding for me!" ”
"It's okay, since I want to marry you, then I want the world to know that you are my woman."
After hearing these heroic words, Ren Hongchang was very moved.
At this time, Cai Yan also helped to persuade: "Sister Hongchang, now that the Ten Standing Servants have long disappeared, you don't have to worry about yourself being exposed, it is his intention for the husband to do it, Sister Hongchang should not refuse." ”
After hearing this, Ren Hongchang immediately thanked Cai Yan and Wang Kai.
After that, Wang Kai ordered someone to start the operation.
Just when Wang Kai was about to marry Ren Hongchang, Wang Kai's messenger finally came to Xu County with Li Dao's head and asked to see the Son of Heaven.
When Cao Cao learned that Wang Kai had sent an envoy, he preemptively met Wang Kai's messenger.
After Wang Kai's messenger saw Cao Cao, he saluted Cao Cao because of Wang Kai's advice and said, "Xiaguan Zhongfu pays a visit to General Cao." ”
"Zhong Fu, I don't know why Wang Xinhao sent you here?"
"Back to General Cao, my lord asked me to give me a gift."
"Gift-giving? This is fresh, now it is neither anyone's birthday nor a festival, what kind of gift does he Wang Kai give? ”
"Back to General Cao, my lord asked me to come and offer Li Dao's head."
"Li Dao's head?"
Speaking of this, Cao Cao suddenly turned his mind.
'Wang Kai sent Li Dao's head, he must have a plan! ’
Immediately after, Cao Cao said: "General Wang must have made some moves recently, otherwise he wouldn't have sent someone to give gifts." ”
"General Cao is really powerful."
"Tell me, does Wang Xinhao have a request for me?" Just love
Seeing that Cao Cao had set out his purpose in a few words, Zhong Fu had no choice but to tell the truth: "Back to General Cao, my lord has captured the seven counties of Liangzhou, and he asked me to come to present Li Dao's head, because he wanted General Cao to say good things in front of the Son of Heaven, so that my lord can take over Liangzhou justifiably." ”
When he heard this, Cao Cao was quite surprised, because he didn't expect that Wang Kai had already taken the seven counties of Liangzhou.
Immediately after, Cao Cao thought to himself: 'Wang Kai really deserves to be the master disciple of General Huangfu, and the strength of Longxi Ma Teng and Jincheng Han Sui is not too weak, and he can pacify Liangzhou so quickly must be a great enemy of mine in the future.' ’
Thinking of this, Cao Cao immediately said to Zhong Fu: "Zhong Fu, I have written down what you said, tomorrow morning I will go on a pilgrimage to see the Son of Heaven, and today you will temporarily go to the post house to stay!" ”
"Thank you General Cao, then the next official will retire first."
After speaking, Zhong Fu prepared to leave.
At this time, Cao Cao remembered that Li Dao's head had not yet been seen, and he immediately called Zhong Fu and asked him where Li Dao's head was.
Zhong Fu then replied: "Back to General Cao, Li Dao's head is still waiting outside the mansion. ”
"Zhong Fu, you bring the head in and leave!"
With a promise, Zhong Fu quickly left the mansion to take Li Dao's head and returned to Cao Cao.
When Cao Cao saw Zhong Fu carrying a brocade box, he immediately asked, "Among these things is Li Dao's head?" ”
"Exactly, because Liangzhou is a long way to here, my lord specially created this thing in order to preserve Li Wei's appearance."
"Bring it up to me and show me."
After hearing this, Zhong Fu quickly presented the brocade box and opened it.
When Cao Cao saw that the head in the brocade box was indeed Li Dao, he let Zhong Fu leave.
After Zhong Fu stayed away from Cao's mansion, Cao Cao suddenly said to himself: "After Wang Kai took Liangzhou based on Hanzhong, his next target is either Sili or Yizhou. Si Li's ten rooms and nine empty are useless, but Yizhou is difficult to attack, it seems that Wang Kai will not become my enemy in the short term, this time I will sell him a favor! ”
Following.
Cao Cao carried the brocade box and went to the pilgrimage to meet him.
When the ministers saw Cao Cao carrying a brocade box to the court, everyone was puzzled, but no one dared to ask Cao Cao.
After a while, as the Son of Heaven ascended to the court, the ministers visited Liu Xie one after another, and even Cao Cao made a big gift, because Cao Cao did not have the capital to be proud now.
Immediately after, Liu Xie shouted a sentence of public love and courtesy.
At this time, Liu Xie said loudly: "Zhong Aiqing, can you have something to play?" ”
After hearing this, the ministers hurriedly reported some trivial matters, after all, they couldn't manage other places.
Seeing that the ministers had almost said it, Cao Cao finally said: "Your Majesty, the ministers have something to do!" ”
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Liu Xie hurriedly continued: "Cao Aiqing, please speak!" ”
"Your Majesty, General Wang Kai exterminated the Liangzhou rebels a few days ago."
When he suddenly heard the news, Liu Xie was very surprised, because he hadn't heard from Wang Kai for a long time.
Before Liu Xie could digest it, Cao Cao said again: "Your Majesty, General Wang also sent a special envoy to come and offer Li Dao's head. ”
"Li Dao's head? Where? ”
Seeing that Liu Xie was a little out of shape, Cao Cao immediately took out the brocade box and replied: "Your Majesty, Li Dao's head level is in this box." ”
"Please Cao Aiqing open it!"
Cao Cao immediately opened the brocade box after receiving the order.
When Liu Xie saw Li Dao's head, he said very resentfully: "It's good to die, it's good to die!" Cao Aiqing, I order you to hang Li Dao's head in the city for three days, and I will let this dog thief be spurned by 10,000 people. ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately agreed.
Then, Cao Cao said again: "Your Majesty, General Wang has made a contribution to pacifying Liangzhou, why don't you take the opportunity to crown him as the assassin of Liangzhou!" ”
Hearing Cao Cao's words, the ministers of the court and the central government obstructed one after another, because Wang Kai's identity was not liked by them, and Wang Kai was relatively young.
Seeing this, Cao Cao also argued on the basis of reason.
After much thought, Liu Xie decided to make Wang Kai the general of Liangzhou Mu and Zhenxi, and he planned to seek Wang Kai's help to escape from Cao Cao's clutches.
When Cao Cao saw that Liu Xie also deliberately increased Wang Kai's official position, he immediately guessed Liu Xie's intentions, but Wang Kai was far away from Xu County, even if Liu Xie gave heavy favors, he was afraid that it would be a bamboo basket to draw water, so Cao Cao did not object.
As for the opinions of the ministers, it is not very important, after all, the Son of Heaven and Cao Cao, who actually controls the government, have reached an agreement.
