It is also interesting to say that Cao Cao, because Sima Fang has helped him again and again for his support, and it can be regarded as his dedication to Sima's benevolence.

Sima Lang before, Sima Yi now, I have to say that Cao Cao is really related to the Sima family.

Moreover, Cao Cao knew Sima's purpose and knew that Sima's yearning for a wealthy family.

In the past, he valued the scholar family from Yingchuan, but now he knows that Guo Peng dislikes the scholar family of Yingchuan, so he wants to find the scholar family from Qingyan Erzhou or Jizhou to join in and hug the thighs of others.

At present, in addition to the Guo family, there are also Chen Gong family, Xizhong family, Tian Feng family, Zaoyi family, Gu Yong family, Manzhong family and so on.

These are not the mainstream scholar families in the Central Plains, but some leftover families, second- and third-rate small scholars who are not very valued, or those who have influence in a certain place and have a lot of influence in the central government, such as the Gu Yong family.

There are not many families that can meet Sima's ideas, but I have to say that there are advantages in identity, status, and power, and Cao Cao can still speak, there is only one, the Guo family.

Yingchuan Guo family, born in Yingchuan County, Guo Peng's family, although it is a second-rate scholar, but because of the right to interpret the law, the children of all generations have a similar monopoly position in the legal official positions in the central government, and the descendants of the main family have been court captains in the central government for generations, and they still have a certain status.

Not to mention at the moment, there is a fierce man like Guo Peng in the family, and most of the children are reused, and they will continue to be reused in the future, and they may even become the first family in the world in one step.

At present, there are three highest-ranking officials in the family, Guo Jia, the left servant of the staff station, Guo Rui, the assassin of Yanzhou, and Guo Yi, the Taishou of Taiyuan County, all of whom are qualified to summon subordinate officials.

Among them, Guo Peng's closest and most admired is naturally Guo Jia.

Cao Cao and Guo Jia have a common bad hobby of drinking and lust, and even played with women together, so they can naturally come together.

The two have a good relationship, and they often meet to drink together, chat together, and do interesting things together, so when this happens, Cao Cao naturally thinks of Guo Jia.

Now Sima Lang is out of play.

If you don't go with the master, don't jump into the fire pit with the master, no one wants such a master, the stain on his body can't be washed away, and it is estimated that he will not be able to go too far in this life.

However, any of the eight sons of the Sima family can help take care of their own family if they get ahead, and now that the second son Sima Yi is old, it is time to take on the mission of prospering the family.

Guo Jia now holds the position of the left servant of the staff station, and is the first person in the staff station under Xi Zhong, with a high position, and he is one of the indispensable and important figures in Guo Wei's group.

Because Xi Zhong needs to sit in the headquarters of the staff station all the year round, Guo Jia often goes out to guide the army in battles, conveys instructions to the army on behalf of Guo Peng, etc., so he also has a certain prestige in the army.

Such a character, a character who has no problems with his identity, status and power, Sima must be very satisfied.

After making up his mind, Cao Cao found Guo Jia to drink, drank and drank, and talked about it.

"Hanoi Sima?"

Guo Jia held the wine glass and muttered for a while: "Mengde, the Hanoi Sima clan is the Hanoi Sima clan, right?" I remember that one of Xun Wenruo's subordinate officials was named Sima Lang? It seems that you recommended it to Xun Wenruo, right? ”

"Yes, Sima Lang, the eldest son of the former Jingzhao Yin Sima Fang."

Cao Cao shook his head: "Sima Gong is kind to me, after I was promoted to filial piety, it was Sima Gong who recommended me to be the lieutenant of the northern part of Luoyang, and he was kind to me."

With this relationship in it, how can I refuse some small requests from Sima Gong? If I don't reciprocate at this time, how will the world view me? No one wants to continue to associate with me in the future, right? ”

"That's interesting."

Guo Jia laughed hesitantly: "Before, I heard that Han Yuansi summoned Sima Lang in Hanoi, but Sima Lang refused, and then Xun Wenruo summoned Sima Lang, but Han Yuansi was very angry, is there such a thing?" ”

"Yes, indeed."

Cao Cao nodded.

"It's interesting, I can't look down on Han Yuanhei, a Taishou, so I came to Xun Wenruo, a wealthy family in Yingchuan, now the Xun family is in trouble, Sima Lang's future is bleak, and the Sima family pointed to you to come to me, let the Guo family carry the Sima family, it seems that this Sima family's plot is not small."

There was a bit of sarcasm in Guo Jia's words.

"The Sima clan is a military general, a family of generals, and has always wanted to enter the ranks of scholars, so three generations of people have worked tirelessly, and it is not easy to finally be recognized as a scholar in Sima Gong's generation."

Cao Cao drank a glass of wine a little depressed: "Fengxiao, this matter is just a gesture for you, and it is not difficult to recruit a scholar to be your subordinate official, anyway, you also help Cheng Zhongde and Tian Yuanhao, now, you can help me." ”

"It's not difficult to help you, but I don't like this family so much."

Guo Jia pouted and said: "It's normal for people to dislike Han Yuanhei and rush to tie up Xun Wenruo, but I'm just not happy, and Han Yuanhei is also quite valued by the king."

The king often praised Han Yuanhe's good political achievements and constantly gave him more difficult tasks, I think that means, Han Yuanji has a great future and will inevitably come to the king in the future.

This Sima clan only values the immediate interests, but does not want to think about the long-term, staring at the Xun clan and thinking about climbing high branches, but not only offended Han Yuanhei, if Xun Wen happens, this Sima Lang's future will be ruined, what's the matter, who is it this time? His brother? ”

Cao Cao nodded.

"Sima Lang's second brother, Sima Yi, the epigrapher Zhongda, is twenty-two years old."

"Twenty-two years old...... Why didn't you participate in the previous ceremony? So many scholars came to attend, and he ...... Oh, Mende, don't you feel like you're being taken advantage of by them? Don't you feel unhappy? ”

Guo Jia poured Cao Cao a glass of wine.

"Sima Gong helped me when I was in trouble, what can I do with such kindness? Everyone did this, I helped Sima Lang once, and now it's not bad for Sima Yi this time.

All in all, I can be regarded as benevolent and righteous to the Sima family, no one can say that I am not, if the Sima family is not angry and does something wrong, it is no wonder that I am not angry, and what Han Yuansi wants to do to them has nothing to do with me. ”

Cao Cao raised his glass: "Fengxiao, help me, I feel uncomfortable owing favors, I want to pay it back." ”

"Then I'll help you, what will you give me in return? It's uncomfortable to owe Sima, but it's good to owe me? ”

Guo Jia asked jokingly.

Cao Cao pursed his lips and smiled intriguingly.

"At least Fengxiao is someone I am familiar with, although there is nothing on my side that can help Fengxiao in his career, but if I have anything here that Fengxiao himself likes, even if Fengxiao takes it, I have no complaints."

Guo Jia suddenly showed the same intriguing smile.

"Oh? Is Meng De serious? ”

"How not to be serious? As long as Feng Xiao likes it, what if I cut my love? ”

Cao Cao patted his chest, looking generous.

Then Cao Cao's favorite concubine was snatched away by Guo Jia, and by the way, Guo Jia also rolled up Cao Cao's room of gold, silver and bronze utensils and left, and ate a good meal, which made Cao Cao want to cry without tears.

Subsequently, this matter was known to Cao Cao's wife, Mrs. Ding, who was very angry when she found out, complained to Cao Cao, and scolded Cao Cao out of the house after a fierce criticism.

The dignified Minister of Wei, Cao Mengde, the wife and brother of King Wei, was driven out of the house by his main room.
