Half a month passed, and Cao Cao never appeared, which made Chen Mo feel guilty in his heart.

"What do you want to compare today?" Chen Mo was looking at the bamboo slips of the Xun family, and when he heard footsteps, he didn't look up, and asked directly.

In this barracks, the only one who dared to come to him without notice was Cao Ang.

"I came here today to bid farewell to my uncle, thank you uncle for the grace of these teachings, and I will remember it in my heart in this life, and I dare not hope for it." Cao Ang bowed to Chen Mo and said.

Chen Mo put down the bamboo slip and looked up at Cao Ang, although it was only half a month, Cao Ang was a little less childish, but a little more tenacious temperament honed in the military, and there was a little less arrogance in his expression.

"It's okay, after all, you're still young, and it's not appropriate to stay in the barracks all the time, go back and tell your father that this time, one or two meals will not be even." Chen Mo waved while reading the bamboo slips.

Cao Ang had a very strange feeling when he was told that he was young by someone who was not a few years older than him, but he was really convinced by Chen Mo's ability, but he was a little curious: "Uncle, after the average teacher has taught his disciples, shouldn't he ask his disciples what they have learned?" ”

"First of all, I'm not your teacher, it's not my business." Chen Mo raised his head, looked at Cao Ang and said with a smile: "Secondly, the big truth, I think there should be no shortage of people to tell you, what I said is the same as what they said, so I won't waste time, as for learning, everything in the world is knowledge, the same knowledge, everyone learns differently, this is the Tao, the Tao can be passed on but not the art, if I teach you, then it is my Tao and not yours, understand?" ”

"I see." Cao Ang thought seriously.

"Take your time, life is still long, there will always be a day when I can understand, I can teach you, I have taught these days, and the rest depends on yourself." After Chen Mo finished speaking, he ignored him and continued to read his book, the experience recorded by the sages of the Xun family in the past dynasties is not something that can be seen at any time, and now the bamboo slips have been carved almost, and then, if there is time, Chen Mo wants to precipitate it well, and organize those things into a book, so that he can read them carefully in the future, and can also be passed on to future generations, which can also be regarded as the heritage of the Chen family.

"Nephew farewell." Cao Ang bowed to Chen Mo, but this salute was not as polite as it was at the beginning, but sincere.

"This kid, he will become a great weapon one day!" Looking at the back of Cao Ang leaving, Chen Mo closed the bamboo slips, walked out of the tent, and said to Da Lang with a smile.

"Actually...... You're not big either. Da Lang turned his head and looked at Chen Modao.

"I'm four years older than him." Chen Mo glanced at Da Lang and said, "And sometimes, people shouldn't be distinguished by age. ”

"What's that for? Size? "Da Lang stood up as a brother, he was half a head taller than Chen Mo.

Chen Mo: "......"

……

On the other side, after Cao Ang left the barracks, he went straight back to Cao's mansion.

"Has my son ever been wronged?" Before Cao Cao could react, the Ding family, who heard the news, had already pulled Cao Ang over, looked at Cao Ang carefully, and said with some resentment: "My son has lost a lot of weight, so is Chen Mo treating my son harshly?" ”

"Uncle didn't treat me badly." Da Lang shook his head: "Mother doesn't have to worry. ”

"It's thinner, but it's also much more lean, more like a man." Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang's demeanor and couldn't help laughing: "It seems that my virtuous brother has worked hard. ”

"He's not a few years older than Bian." Ding frowned and said, "What can you teach my son?" ”

"In terms of talent, my virtuous brother is no worse than Ang'er." Cao Cao glanced at his own woman, shook his head and said: "And he has suffered misfortune since he was a child and has never given up, just this point, most people in this world are inferior to him." ”

"Not bad." Ding was about to refute, but Cao Ang had already nodded and said, "Although my uncle is not very old, he is ten times better than me. ”

"Tell me how the virtuous brother has taught you these days." Cao Cao waved his hand, signaling Ding Shi not to say more, looked at Cao Ang and smiled.

Cao Ang was about to talk about his experiences in the past half a month, including his own inner feelings.

For Cao Ang, the most precious thing may not be what Chen Mo taught him, but training with a group of soldiers in the barracks, eating together, and living together, the friendship and trust between the robes, and the feeling of being regarded as a part of the whole, which Cao Ang has never experienced.

Although he is the son of the Cao family, since he was a child, Cao Cao has mostly traveled in diplomatic friends or for his official career, although the Ding family regards him as his own, but Cao Ang has a sense of estrangement after all, as for the servants and maids in the family, they are respectful to Cao Ang, but the sense of alienation is greater.

It was not so much Chen Mo who taught him, but the military camp that taught him how to integrate into a collective.

"That's a good method, I don't want Ang'er to change so much." Cao Ang went down to rest, and Ding sat next to Cao Cao, a little surprised.

"Yes, but Madame missed a little, if my virtuous brother hadn't been so stable and high-headed, this son would not be so obedient." Cao Cao said with a smile: "Moreover, my virtuous brother can do this, but if I do it, it will be half the effort." ”

Don't care how powerful Cao Cao is in governing the army, but in front of his own son, his prestige is naturally halved, even if he can suppress his own son in all aspects like Chen Mo, Cao Ang is estimated to not be as well-behaved as Chen Mo, this is the sadness of being Lao Tzu.

"That's right, father." Cao Ang, who had already left, came back and looked at Cao Cao and said, "When I left the camp, my uncle once said that this favor could not be resolved in one or two meals. ”

Cao Cao nodded a little amused when he heard this: "As my father knows, you go and rest, don't be too tired." ”

"Whoa!" Cao Ang saluted, turned and left.

"My son seems to be ......" Looking at Cao Ang's back, Mrs. Ding said with some uncertainty: "I have grown a lot, but in half a month, this Chen Mo really has such ability?" ”

"Being good at the situation is his strength, my son is already outstanding, if he has another three or five years, he may not be worse than my virtuous brother." Cao Cao said proudly that Cao Ang was his most proud son.

"No matter what, this matter really can't be hasty, be a good student and thank you." Mrs. Ding said with a smile.

"It's a matter of my own." Cao Cao nodded and smiled.

At this moment, a domestic servant hurriedly came in and saluted Cao Cao and said, "Master of the family, there is an invitation from the Yuan family outside the door, saying that there is something important to discuss." ”

"Something important?" Cao Cao was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at Ding and said, "Madame will take care of the thanks." ”

"The husband will go by himself." Ding nodded.

Cao Cao immediately changed his clothes and went out with the servants of the Yuan family, but to Cao Cao's surprise, the direction he went in this time was not the Yuan family's mansion.

"Where is this going?" Cao Cao frowned and looked at the servant.

"Back to the general, the two sons have been invited to the general's mansion." The servant bowed.

"The General's Mansion?" Cao Cao frowned when he heard this, and instinctively felt that something was wrong, the Son of Heaven prepared a new army in order to share the right to take He Jin, at this time, as one of the eight captains of the West Garden, shouldn't he avoid suspicion and put aside the relationship with He Jin?

Cao Cao's footsteps stopped, and the gaze that fell on the servant became cold.

"General Cao?" The servant looked at Cao Cao suspiciously.

"Who are you? How dare Ann harm me? Cao Cao looked at the servant, his hand already on the saber at his waist.

The servant was startled, knelt down in front of Cao Cao with a puff and said, "General Cao, but he is a servant of the Yuan family, and this invitation is the invitation of the eldest prince, and he doesn't dare to say anything about it." ”

"Originally let me go to the General's Mansion?" Cao Cao sneered.

"Exactly." The servant didn't know what taboo he had committed, and bowed to Cao Cao and said, "Someone in the palace came today, and then the general's people came, and the eldest prince ordered a slave to invite General Cao to go to the general's mansion with him." ”

Cao Cao stared at the servant carefully, and saw that he didn't seem to be lying, and his heart sank, at this time, someone came from the palace, and then Yuan Shao, who was a lieutenant of the middle army, ran to He Jin...... Cao Cao suddenly didn't dare to think about it anymore.

"Let's go!" After pondering for a moment, Cao Cao said to the servant: "If you know that you are deceived by me, you will be beheaded!" ”

The servants responded again and again, and continued to take Cao Cao to the general's mansion.

Soon, when I arrived at the General's Mansion, I saw that the General's Mansion was loose outside and tight inside, and after reporting the name and being invited in, I saw that there were a lot more guards in the General's Mansion than in the past, and Cao Cao was directly taken to the main hall.

"Mengde is here!" After the report, Cao Cao was quickly welcomed in, but found that there were really a lot of people from the general's mansion today, Xia Mu, Feng Fang, and Zhao Rong, who were also the eighth lieutenants of the West Garden, were on the list, plus himself and Yuan Shao, the eighth school of the West Garden, except for Jian Shuo, only Chen Mo was left.

In addition, there is also Wu Qiong, the captain of the city gate, He Hao, the marquis of the Northern Army, and Cao Cao was stunned to find that the generals and colonels in charge of the military power in Luoyang City actually came more than halfway, what is this for?

"...... See the Great General! Although I don't know what happened, but this is obviously not the time to ask, Cao Cao saluted He Jin, and then He Jin waved his hand to take a seat, kneeling where Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu started.

"What happened?" Cao Cao sat next to Yuan Shu and asked in a low voice.

"Today, the henchmen in the palace came to report that His Majesty suddenly fainted yesterday and has not woken up so far, according to the imperial doctor's order, Your Majesty is afraid that it will ......" Yuan Shu glanced at He Jin and explained in a low voice.

Yuan Shu didn't finish speaking, but the meaning was already obvious, the Son of Heaven had been ill for a long time, which was not a secret in Luoyang, but no one knew how it exactly, and even before there was news that the Son of Heaven suddenly fainted, but he would soon wake up, and this time, he had not woken up yet.

Cao Cao's heart sank, and now the court seems to be quiet, but the dispute between the general and the eunuch has intensified with the establishment of the eight schools in the West Garden...... Cao Cao looked at He Jin, and suddenly felt a little bitter in his heart, the fate of the big man, in the end, could not escape the control of his relatives?
