From afar, you can see the outline of a glorious city, which is the capital of the Han Dynasty: Luoyang, as the political, economic and cultural center of the Eastern Han Dynasty, countless children of families, heroes and heroes, literati and scholars flocked here, either for apprenticeship, or for high-ranking officials, etc., etc., in short, this is the place that countless people yearn for.

A river runs through the city of Luoyang, and people don't know where it comes from or where it's going, because in Luoyang, everyone calls it: Luohe.

Two teenagers stood on the side of the Luohe River outside the city, holding a large handful of stones in their hands, with a shake of their wrists, the stones were like dragonflies on the water, and they jumped four or five times in a row before sinking into the water, and there were ripples on the water, a teenager was one meter eight tall, with a long sword tied around his waist, dressed as a warrior, and the other teenager with eyes like torches, black face and short beard, wearing a long robe, these two people were Cao Cao, who came to Luoyang to serve as the captain of the northern part of Luoyang, and his second brother Xiang Qing.

"Big brother, can I ask you a question?" Xiang Qing asked.

Cao Cao threw the last stone in his hand, rubbed his hands and said, "Just ask whatever you want." ”

"Tell me about your ambitions."

Cao Cao looked at Xiang Qing, but Xiang Qing still kept throwing stones, feeling Cao Cao's gaze, Xiang Qing did not stop, and said while picking up stones: "I understand, the northern lieutenant of Luoyang, but it is your starting point, if a northern lieutenant of Luoyang can satisfy you, you are not Cao Cao." ”

"Hahaha, you still know me, a lieutenant in the north of Luoyang, really can't satisfy me." Cao Cao paused for a moment and looked at the outline of Luoyang City, "Brother Qing, do you know who the person I admire the most in my life?" ”

"You ask me, who do I ask? But the person who can make the big brother worship should be a great character, right? ”

"Hahahaha, who do I ask if you ask me? Your diction is as unpredictable as ever. ”

Xiang Qing showed a professional smirk, "Big brother, don't sell it, it's the same as the real thing." ”

Cao Cao did not answer him, but recited a poem: "The four Yi have been obtained, and the summer is healthy." The country is peaceful, and the joy is not young. Carry the war, the bow and arrow are hidden. The unicorn is coming, and the phoenix is flying. Protect with the sky, never borders. Kiss for a hundred years, each extended. ”

Xiang Qing's brain was running rapidly, and he thought about it for a long time before he remembered the source of this poem, "This, well, it seems to be Huo Quai's poem, right?" ”

"Yes."

"The desert is lonely and seals the wolf, once the king is worried, drink the horse to the east to the Hanhai, and the man should be the champion. Huo Huqi is a real hero. ”

"I didn't expect you, a person who practices martial arts, to have a deep understanding of poetry and songs, and your export is a chapter."

"Where, where, in front of the eldest brother, it's the class that has an axe." Xiang Qing understands very well in his heart, in addition to being an outstanding military strategist and politician, this Brother Cao is also a famous poet.

But he is also a little proud, after all, this is only the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there are a lot of quatrains that have not yet been born, and as a writer, of course, he is familiar with the three hundred Tang poems or something, so that he seems to be a writer with connotation, but these poems, in the Tang Dynasty, it was passed on by word of mouth, everyone admired, but in the Eastern Han Dynasty it is not necessarily good, because that era has the characteristics of that era, otherwise there will be no difference between Tang poetry and Song poetry and Yuan song, so these poems should not be easily taken out to show, You have to find the right time.

At this time, Cao Cao made his signature gesture again, looking up at the sky, as if there was a peerless beauty in the sky, which made him intoxicated, every time he looked at the sky, whether it was day or night, his eyes were blazing, and he didn't even blink.

"In today's world, Your Majesty is deceived by eunuchs, a butcher is in charge of the power of soldiers and horses, a parent official actually colludes with mountain bandits to harm the people for power, bandits are everywhere in the world, the past road is not forgotten, the Han Dynasty is already the building is about to fall, winter has just passed, along the way, we have seen how many people who froze to death on the side of the road, and how many mountain bandits and bandits have been killed, alas, the troubled times are coming."

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Xiang Qing also praised Brother Cao in his heart, it is worthy of being the hero who will clean up the universe and pacify the Quartet in the future, Cao Cao didn't get the script in advance like him, all this is his own inference, this is a vision, but in the world, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Han is no longer good.

Thinking of the shocking bones on the side of the road, and thinking of the girls who were humiliated to death on the black mountain village, he also sighed, "The general trend of the world, it will be together for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time, and this world is terminally ill." ”

Suddenly, Cao Cao grabbed Xiang Qing's shoulders and said emotionally, "Brother Qing, are you willing to join me to turn the tide and help the building to fall!" ”

"Once Yuedan commented, Xu Zi will evaluate me Cao Cao as a capable minister who governs the world, a traitor in troubled times, this world is in turmoil, we Han men, we should serve the court, eradicate the traitors in the court, pacify all the rebels, and save the people of Li from fire and water, whether I am a capable minister or a traitor, I want to do this, I must do this!"

"Champion Hou chasing the north, is a real hero, a pillar of the Han Dynasty, to this day, I have been hovering in my mind the champion Hou's sentence, the Huns have not been destroyed, how to be home? This sentence is also my Cao Cao's belief, whether it is the Xiongnu, Xianbei, or Nanban, as long as I dare to take advantage of the danger of my Han, I Cao Cao is willing to follow the example of the champion Hou and kill all the aliens! This is my ambition in life, I want to be a pillar of the Han Dynasty, Brother Qing, do you understand! ”

"I want to be a marquis and a general, and I want to be the general of the Han Dynasty, after I die, as long as I write on my tombstone, the tomb of Cao Hou, the general of the Han Dynasty, is so comforting."

Cao Cao said so many words in one breath, and he was a little out of breath for a while, and there was too much wind in his throat, and he coughed a few times before he eased up.

"I understand big brother, I'm pretty sure I do, but can you let me go first, I'm about to be shaken up by you! Vomit! ”

The two of them faced the river at the same time, one coughed, the other retched, and Xiang Xu, who was watching them from a distance, was full of black question marks, what did these two people do just now?

"Ahem, cough, I said, I've said so much, are you willing to do it?" Cao Cao asked as he coughed.

"What, gag, I'm so uncomfortable to be shaken by you, you can ask again." Xiang Qing replied while retching.

"I ask you, would you like to join me in pacifying this troubled world!"

"Big brother, you let me slow down first, I feel the same as going down on a roller coaster, and you are not so energetic in normal times."

Cao Cao put on a posture of shaking people, and said in a threatening tone: "What a roller coaster, you have to answer me immediately, if you don't want to, I will shake you again!" ”

"I'm willing, I'm willing, it's the same as a marriage proposal, it's too shameful." Xiang Qing vomited for a while before he was finally able to straighten his waist, it would be fine if he vomited, but retching was too uncomfortable.

Cao Cao pinched his waist, put three stones under his feet, and said "condescendingly": "Okay, since you are willing, then you can't call me big brother in the future." ”

"Then what do I call you?" Xiang Qing had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Call the lord, those retainers and staff of our Feiting Marquis Mansion are all called our father, since you want to assist me, then you have to call me lord!"

"Hehe, it's almost the same thing I call you a princess, okay big brother, there will be many people following you in the future, calling you lord, there is no shortage of me, good, hurry up, you step too high, too dangerous, if this hurts the future General Pingxi, then these three stones should be apologized for death."

"You don't avoid the important here, change the topic, to put it bluntly, you just don't want to recognize me as the lord, yes, I can't beat you, you are strong in martial arts, how can you recognize me as the lord, maybe you will be an official bigger than me in the future, the future general, it seems that it will be you, hum, what? Don't look at me like this, is it possible that you still let me call you the lord? There are no doors, and there are no windows! ”

Seeing Cao Cao's angry appearance at this time, Xiang Qingda felt from the bottom of his heart that this product was not Cao Cao at all, right? is so arrogant, how did he subdue the ghost plot Guo Jia, Xun Lingjun, Dian Wei Xu Chu, these fierce people? But when he thought about it, it seemed that when Cao Cao killed the mountain bandits that night, his eyes were very unique, and that kind of temperament should be called ...... Decisive killing?

Xiang Qingurn hummed two words out of his nose angrily, "Lord...... Public. ”

Cao Cao immediately jumped down from the three stones happily, "What do you call me?" Call it again. ”

"Lord!" Xiang Qing's speed of speech was like watching TV and turning on double the speed, it was extremely fast, but Cao Cao was still very happy.

"It's too fast, I didn't hear it clearly, you are calling it again."

"My lord." This time, Xiang Qing is a correct and round character, and he speaks standard Mandarin.

"No ......"

Xiang Qing was already annoyed, annoyed and angry, he shouted: "You are endless, I can't satisfy you, right!" ”

"Hehe, it's not over, I'm not satisfied, you don't know, how cool it is to be called the lord, hahahaha."

"Perverted!" Xiang Qing rolled his eyes in disgust, leaving Cao Cao alone to giggle by the river.

"Xiang Xu, promise, Cao Da Cao Er, hurry up and run with your luggage, Cao Dagongzi is already crazy!"

When the few people guarding the luggage heard this, they looked at where Cao Cao was looking up to the sky and roaring, laughing forward and backward, and they were all about to laugh. Stupid?

Xiang Qing and Xiang Xu turned over at the same time and went hand in hand.

"Brother, is he okay?"

Xiang Qing glanced back, "It's okay, what can he do, he's very comfortable." ”

"Oh."

Xiang Xu is becoming more and more silent now, and it is difficult for Xiang Qing's character to find the same topic as him.

"Well, how old are you now?" It's a shame to say it, he doesn't even know how old his brother is!

"Fifteen."

"Well, I'm twenty, you're fifteen, but I don't have a word, you don't have either, and we don't have a father and mother, so I'll get up."

"Okay, brother, can I finally make it to the crown?" Xiang Xu suddenly became excited.

Seeing Xiang Xu's interest, Xiang Qing smiled at the corner of his mouth, although this younger brother was very cold, but seeing himself could still make him happy, his heart was also warm.

"Beichen Star Arch, Wildfire Burning Plain, Xiang Beiye, Beiye, what do you think?" Xiang Qing asked tentatively.

"Kitano? Xiang Beiye, Xiang Xu, Xiang Beiye. Xiang Xu repeated it several times before he raised his head and showed a rare smile, "Brother, I like this name, I will be Xiang Beiye in the future." ”

When Xiang Xu smiled, there was a little tiger tooth exposed, coupled with his immature appearance and the headscarf on his forehead, how cute he looked.

"That's right, children just want to smile more, they always have a straight face, it's not good-looking."

Xiang Qing pulled the reins with his right hand, stretched out his left hand, and tentatively touched Xiang Xu's head, he didn't resist, Xiang Qing relieved a pair of big hands and gently pressed on his little head, stroking gently.

"Brother, my hair is messed up! The hair is messed up. ”

"Hahaha, can you catch up with me! Let's see who goes to Luoyang City first, whoever is fast will win, let's go! ”

After speaking, Xiang Qing twitched the horse's buttocks, the horse was in pain, and ran fast, and Xiang Xu behind was not to be outdone, and patted the horse to catch up.

"Brother, you haven't told me what words you gave yourself!"

Xiang Xu heard a shout from in front of him.

"Xiang Junhe! A gentleman should be famous in the world! ”

When Cao Cao finished laughing, he looked back and saw that there was still a figure somewhere.

"Hey, why didn't you kid run away without waiting for the lord! Wait for me! ”
