For more than ten days in a row, Liu Ping has been writing in the study.

After all, he is now a pawn farmer, and he can't take it for nothing.

He believed that the agricultural books in his mind could help Cao Cao's tuntian.

In the past few days, even the food has been sent to the study, but what he didn't expect was that the food in the house was actually very rich, with meat and vegetables, which was quite delicious.

It is said that Liu Ping is now a middle-ranking official in the state capital, and he should go to the assassination bureau every few days to report to Cao Cao, but he was denied in the name of writing a book.

Assassin Historian's Office, in Cao Cao's study.

When Cao Cao heard the news, he couldn't help but smile dumbly at Cheng Yu beside him: "I didn't expect Ping'er to be literate, but I was very surprised, but literacy and writing are two different things, I want to see what splendid articles he can write." ”

In this era, literate people are already rare, and those who can write and speak are even more scarce.

Liu Ping didn't tell outsiders what he was writing, and others thought that he was going to annotate a subset of scriptures and histories, or write articles such as poems.

Cao Cao's own literary literacy is not low, and he has long wanted to write a book, and he has thought of a name, which is called "Mengde's New Book", but he hasn't thought about Zhou Xiang and hasn't started writing.

Liu Ping, a guy from such a small family, actually hid in the study and picked up a book, wouldn't it make him laugh?

Cheng Yu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The envoy rewarded him with that house, the original intention was to let him enjoy it, but I didn't expect this young master Ping to have this Yaxing, if the text of the book he wrote is not clear, I am afraid that even the envoy will be laughed at." ”

"It's okay, Ping'er will let him go if he is happy," Cao Cao said casually: "Am I a person who is afraid of the world's jokes?" ”

He admires the Legalist family, and he is not from a big family, and his family background is not worth showing off, which leads him to look down on those high-ranking disciples who are full of high-minded talk from the bottom of his bones.

Even since he served as the assassin, there have been many suppressions on those high-ranking men.

Thinking about it, even if someone can laugh at Liu Ping, it must be those children of the family, they laugh and laugh, it's nothing.

A trace of worry flashed on Cheng Yu's face, and he muttered, "It's just ...... The envoy appointed Young Master Ping as the general of the Diannong Zhonglang, after all, his subordinates are in charge of a county, like him, I am afraid that he doesn't even know where Shanyang County is, and he is really derelict in his duties, so I am afraid that the hearts of the displaced people in Shanyang County will fluctuate. ”

Recruiting displaced people to Tuntian was one of Cao Cao's most important strategies to distinguish him from other princes, and only with military rations could he avoid worries.

Cheng Yu's official position is Shou Zhangling, but he is the chief of internal affairs in Yanzhou, and he is responsible for all Tuntian affairs, on a par with Juancheng Xunyu.

In Cheng Yu's opinion, Liu Ping is probably the laziest person among all the Tuntian officials.

After being appointed, the tuntian official did not immediately visit and find out how much arable land he had, how many young and strong people there were, and how many cattle and farm tools he had.

Liu Ping is good, he has been appointed for more than ten days, and he has never left the mansion, even if he can write a splendid article, what is the use of Tuntian?

What's more, Liu Ping is not from a family, what article can he write?

"There is Han Hao in Shanyang County, and there won't be much chaos," Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "Ping'er doesn't go, let Han Hao come to report to him, although it is difficult for Tuntian to make great achievements, but he can't indulge his willfulness."

Although I don't expect much from his tuntian, I don't want to see him become a negative example.

What's more, my father has high expectations for Ping'er, he always has to show his face in front of his subordinates, even if he is pretending, it will be good to give him credit for producing food in the future. ”

"No!" Cheng Yu felt a toothache, isn't this just letting Liu Ping lie down and be promoted?

In the afternoon of this day, Liu Ping was in the study, feeling that he had almost written the chapter on agriculture in his mind.

Suddenly, someone came to report that the eldest prince Cao was visiting.

After Liu Ping said his request, he heard Cao Ang's hearty laughter from the courtyard: "Brother Xian, these days Brother Fool is waiting for you to practice riding and archery, I heard that you have fallen at home and started writing?" ”

Cao Ang not only received a heavy reward from his father for his last achievement, but also after the soldiers received the arrears of salary, he heard that the money was taken back by his eldest son Cao, and the whole army admired and thanked Cao Ang, which made Cao Ang very useful.

He is naturally very grateful to Liu Ping, and he is even more friendly.

Liu Ping hurriedly welcomed Cao Ang into the study, but saw that there was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy hiding behind him.

The young man had red lips and white teeth, a handsome appearance, and a light and agile aura, and at a glance he could see that it was a girl wearing men's clothes.

Cao Ang winked at Liu Ping, and secretly waved his hand, signaling Liu Ping not to debunk it in person.

The girl followed the man's example, slammed at Liu Ping, and deliberately lowered her voice: "This is Liu Ping's brother, right?" Little brother Cao Jie, this is polite. ”

Cao Jie?

Liu Ping thought in his heart, could this be Cao Cao's daughter Cao Jie, the last queen of the Han Dynasty?

It seems that this girl is a self-congratulatory type, and she is dressed like this, I'm afraid she thinks others can't see it.

"Down there is Liu Ping, eldest brother, virtuous brother, please inside."

Liu Ping hurriedly returned the salute with Cao Jie's words and let the brother and sister into the study.

Immediately a maid came in and served tea.

Cao Ang flipped through Liu Ping's book at random, obviously not interested, and said with a smile: "Father gave this house to the virtuous brother, just to let the virtuous brother enjoy it, why did the virtuous brother write a book here?" Wouldn't it be a waste of such a good house, what's the use of raising so many singing and dancing girls?

Do you know that Jie'er has coveted this house for a long time? ”

"Big brother, you are talking nonsense, where is it?" As soon as Cao Jie relaxed, her daughter's posture was revealed.

Liu Ping didn't know that the house he lived in now was the first house in Yanzhou, and the singing and dancing girl he raised was also first-class in the entire state capital, even Cao Jie, a deep boudoir girl, had heard of it for a long time and wanted to come to watch it.

It's just that Mrs. Ding is very strict with their children, and she rarely has the opportunity to go out.

Now that Cao Song is here, Cao Jie pestered his eldest father to be coquettish, saying that he wanted to go to Liu Ping's mansion to watch singing and dancing, but Cao Song was relieved and agreed.

Cao Song agreed, and Mrs. Ding didn't say much, although Cao Song didn't care much about the inner house, but after all, she was the highest person in the Cao family, and she, the bride, didn't dare to refute her father-in-law's face.

"Brother Xian, don't write your book, no matter how well you write your articles, can you compare to the fourth brother?" Cao Ang smiled and said, "Jie'er and I are both here for the singing and dancing girls in your house, so hurry up and arrange it." ”

The fourth brother in his mouth is Cao Zhi Cao Zijian, who "has one stone in the world, and Cao Zijian monopolizes eight buckets", how dare Liu Ping compare articles with that great god?

What's more, Liu Ping wrote a book of agriculture, which is not the same type as Cao Zhi's poetry.

"Big brother orders, dare not obey orders?" Liu Ping smiled and recruited the housekeeper in to make arrangements.

The old housekeeper was overjoyed, Liu Ping, the lord of the house, had lived in for more than ten days, and he didn't care about the singing and dancing girl, which was too different from a young man in his prime.

So much so that people are privately discussing whether the new master will like the orientation of the problem.

When the butler heard this, he punished all the people who discussed privately, but he himself could not help but have doubts in his heart.

Today, when he heard that Liu Ping ordered him to arrange singing and dancing, the housekeeper's hanging heart was put down, and he happily went to arrange it.

A few low tables were placed on the grass between the gardens, blankets were spread, and Liu Ping and the three of them sat on the ground.

A maid came over and brought water and wine.

Although it was late autumn, the sun was excellent and the sun was warm.

A few more musicians sat down next to them, some playing the piano, some playing the sheng, and some playing the flute.

Two red-clothed girls dressed in costumes danced in front of him, dancing and singing: "There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent, one cares about the city, and then the country......"

The singing voice is crisp and tactful, and the clouds are surrounding.

Liu Ping took a sip of water and wine, took a deep breath of the fragrant breath of flower and herb fat powder, and his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears reached a new pleasure at the same time.

He couldn't help but sigh, in addition to not being very comfortable to sit on, this ancient man must have enjoyed it too well.

This is obviously a troubled time when the people are not making a living.

They were enjoying the singing and dancing in the garden, but a carriage came in front of the mansion, and a middle-aged man who looked like a peasant jumped from the carriage, and said to the family guarding the door: "I am tired of spreading the word, and I will say that Han Hao, the governor of Xiaguan Shanyang County, asks to see Liu Fujun." ”
