With the reshuffling of the eunuch power, the power of the Cao family has also been affected, and its influence on the government is not as good as in the past.

And Guo Peng's fame has risen, and he has become the Yingchuan Guo Lang appreciated by everyone, and the future is bright, and Cao Song can't sit still.

Although this is exactly the scene he was looking forward to, he very much hoped that Guo Peng would become famous, but now that this is really the case, he is not at ease.

If Guo Peng doesn't want to fulfill the marriage contract, there is a way, Cao Song has no doubt about this.

The Cao family is not as good as before, if Guo Peng doesn't want to fulfill the marriage contract, Cao Song doesn't even know what to do.

Only then did he realize that he had thought a lot of things too simply.

In September of the second year of Guanghe, Guo Peng was about to be fifteen years old, and when the three-year contract expired three years ago, Cao Song couldn't help but start to suffer from gains and losses, and wanted to explain the matter to Guo Peng and remind him a little, but found that he didn't dare to do so.

What if Guo Peng is unhappy?

In fact, as Cao Song thought, there are many people who take a fancy to Guo Peng's fame and future prospects, and are dissatisfied with the fact that he has a marriage contract.

In particular, the fact that the marriage contract is still Cao's turbidity makes many people even more dissatisfied, and even wants to help Guo Peng operate it to help him avoid Cao's worries.

Lu Zhi accidentally or unintentionally heard some friends around him mention this matter when he was doing things in the court during this time, and he smiled bitterly, so he took advantage of the time to teach Guo Peng at home to mention this matter a little.

What he didn't expect was that Guo Peng refused the matter, saying that he would definitely fulfill his promise and take leave to go home in September, perform the crown ceremony, and get married.

He also invited Lu Zhi as a witness to attend his crown ceremony and wedding.

"Do you really want to do that?"

Lu Zhi asked him.

If this is really the case, even if the marriage contract is made, it must be observed, the student is born as a human being, and faith is the foundation of doing things for others, if the contract is broken, what face does the student have to follow the teacher? What is the face to learn the teachings of the saints? ”

Lu Zhi understood Guo Peng's will, thought more highly of him, and agreed to the invitation to participate in Guo Peng's crown ceremony and wedding.

After that, Lu Zhi also conveyed such news to his friends, telling them that Guo Peng would never break the contract, and there was no friend around Lu Zhi who was waiting for his daughter.

The news quickly reached Cao Song's ears, and Cao Song was inexplicably surprised, but Guo Peng did not say it in person, which made him a little worried.

Seeing that there were still two months to come in September, Cao Song became more and more anxious, until July 15, Guo Peng brought some gifts to visit Cao Song.

"Father-in-law, there are still two months to go before September 15, and the marriage between the son-in-law and Alan should almost be prepared, right?"

Seeing Guo Peng take the initiative to mention this matter to him with a smile on his face, Cao Song suddenly felt that his efforts had been rewarded enough.

September 15 is Guo Peng's birthday, three years ago, the Guo family and the Cao family agreed that three years later, Guo Peng will be fifteen years old, he will perform a crown ceremony, give words, crown, and then hold a wedding with Cao Lan.

In order to adapt to the needs of social and marriage, it is not uncommon for scholars to perform the crown ceremony in advance, and Guo Peng is not a special case, and now that the three-year period has arrived, it is time to fulfill the marriage contract.

Cao Song was overjoyed, and immediately sent someone back to his hometown of Qiao County to inform his family to start planning for Guo Peng and Cao Lan's wedding.

Guo Peng also wrote a letter to send home, asking Guo Dan to do it on his behalf, and he would rush home a few days before the crown ceremony, and before that, he would continue to study and study in Dongguan School.

The news was transmitted back to the Cao family in Qian County, and a big stone in the heart of the Cao family finally landed, and everyone happily ran to tell each other, and then launched the power of the clan to prepare for the wedding.

Originally, the Cao family lost their positions because of Cao Chi and Cao Cao, and the Song family's relatives were wiped out and their power declined, and only Cao Song in the family insisted on it in the court.

At that time, many people in the family were worried that Guo Peng was going to break the contract, but Cao Cao, who was studying at home, resolutely disagreed, and stood up and said that Guo Peng was not that kind of person, and he would definitely fulfill the marriage contract.

On July 21, Cao Song's news was delivered, and the Cao family was overjoyed, and even called Xiahou to prepare for the wedding.

After Guo Peng's letter was delivered to Guo Dan, Guo Dan read the letter carefully, and then let out a long sigh.

"Why is the husband sighing?"

Yang poured water for Guo Dan on the side, saw Guo Dan sigh, and asked cautiously.

Since the news that Guo Peng was scolded, and then Guo Peng's prosperity in Luoyang came, the Yang family was a little afraid of Guo Peng, and felt that Guo Peng must be a big official in the future, the kind that holds power, when he thinks of this, he doesn't dare to chew his tongue.

"Xiao Yi wrote to me and told me that he would go home in September, perform the crown ceremony, and then officially marry Cao's daughter, and then return to Luoyang to continue his studies."

Guo Shan put down the bamboo slip and said slowly.

"This ...... Isn't that a good thing? Now that Da Lang is already a disciple of Lu Gong, with Lu Gong's care, isn't his career very clear in the future? ”

Yang felt a little strange.

"Naturally, this is the case, but the more this is the case, the more I regret that I didn't choose a good girl for Xiaoyi to marry, but chose the Cao family."

"This ...... It's come to this, I'm afraid it's ......"

Seeing his wife's embarrassed expression, Guo Dan waved his hand.

"It's not that I blame the Cao family, this marriage is also confirmed, I'm blaming myself."

After that, Guo Dan never mentioned this matter, and dealt with county affairs every day, and when someone from the Cao family came to ask, he replied, if the Cao family didn't come to ask, he didn't participate, anyway, he didn't lose a penny of money.

This matter is mainly handled by Cao Cao and Xiahoudun, Xiahou Yuan and several children of the Cao family are also busy helping, and the Cao clan and Xiahou clan are all taking action to call relatives and friends to prepare for the wedding banquet.

According to Cao Song's standards, when the time comes, the entire county seat of Qiaoxian County will be put on a flowing table, so that all the people in the county will come to eat, and the more people, the more lively.

The more people who bless them, the more face the Cao family will have, the happier Guo Peng will be, and the smoother the marriage.

At the beginning of September, Guo Peng took leave of absence from Dr. Taixue, went home for the crown ceremony and got married, and embarked on the journey home with Zang Hong, who was going to come back with him.

On September 7, Guo Peng and Zang Hong came to Qian County.

Guo Peng first went home to see his father, introduced Zang Hong to his father, and then went to Cao's house with Zang Hong, and met the friends of Cao and Xiahou who were busy arranging their marriages.

After not seeing each other for a long time, Guo Peng also felt that he missed it very much, and gave them the gift he brought back from Luoyang, and introduced Zang Hong to them, so they ran around and ran around, and he was pulled by Cao Cao to Cao Cao's study to talk.

"Xiao Yi, I've heard about what happened to you in Luoyang."

Cao Cao said with a nervous expression: "You are really bold enough, Yang Qiu is the captain of Si Li, and he holds a lot of power, so you actually fight him directly?" ”

"So what? Big brother, didn't you also do it against Jian Shuo? ”

Guo Peng said with a smile.

"I am...... I have the bottom in my heart, but you are different, Yang Qiu is really capable of killing. ”

"Even so, I have to do this, Cai Gong has a great kindness to me, watching Cai Gong suffer and not doing anything is not something I can do."

Guo Peng said: "Even if I lose my life, I will avenge Cai Gong and repay his kindness to me." ”

Cao Cao sighed when he heard this.

"Xiao Yi, in terms of morality, I'm not as good as you!"

Guo Peng was stunned for a moment, just smiled and didn't speak.

Coming out of Cao Cao's house, Guo Peng reminisced with his friends and accepted the inquiries of the elders of the Cao family and the Xiahou family, all of whom greeted them properly, fully demonstrating the communication skills learned in Luoyang.

Later, after having dinner with a group of people, I went home with Zang Hong.

arranged a place for Zang Hong to live, and asked his subordinates to serve Zang Hong to sleep, Guo Peng returned to his room to change his clothes, and came to Guo Dan's study.

Guo Dan didn't sleep, and was waiting for Guo Peng in the study all the time.

"Xiao Yi, what you did in Luoyang is too thrilling."

Because of the slow speed of information dissemination, Guo Dan experienced all kinds of very complex emotions in the first few months.

"Father, the son has no choice, if he doesn't do this, the son will have no place to stand, this time, it's just a death and a later life."

Guo Shan also understands Guo Peng's situation, knows the pursuit and importance of loyalty, filial piety and righteousness in this society, and knows the power of political correctness.

However, as a father, although he values power, he does not even care about his son.

"Alas......"

Guo Shan stood up, walked to Guo Peng's side, and said, "I'm sorry for you." ”

"For the sake of the family, don't be bitter."

Guo Peng's answer was perfect.
