"Punish you for three days, unless your majesty summons you, you are not allowed to go anywhere!"

The smell of wine wafted for ten miles, a round table that had just been made was full of delicacies, and everyone sat on the novel chairs to feast, these unheard of, unseen dishes, from Xiang Qing's hands.

Yuan Shao choked on eating, poured a pot of wine hard, and laughed: "Hahahaha, Meng De, did your father really say that?" ”

Cao Cao was still chewing on the chicken nuggets in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Then can there be a fake?" After the killing is done, what can you do with me, how do you cook this chicken, Junhyuk? It's so fragrant. ”

"It's fried, what else can I do, there is no seasoning, I have to make it myself."

Xiang Qing looked at these gobbling up guys, he deeply doubted whether these people were real people, Yuan Shao of the Fourth World and the Third Duke, a generation of heroes Cao Cao, and the strategist Xu You, one by one, ate like pigs eating them, laughed when they told a joke, and they didn't care if their hair fell into the dishes, they were still telling jokes one by one.

The last banquet was in Qian County, there were eight of them, and he drank too much at the beginning, so he didn't see Cao Cao drinking, but now I look at it, well, it should be quite appropriate to describe it as "informal".

Yuan Shao said with a mysterious look: "Junhe, you haven't seen Meng De like this, let me tell you secretly, we ...... when we were children."

"Hey, originally, it's been so many years, how do you remember! Don't say it, where did you say that I would put my face as a big brother? ”

Yuan Shao ignored him, and just asked Xu You to fight with him, Xiang Qing was also very curious, what story did they have when they were children? So he listened attentively, for fear of missing a detail.

It was about seven or eight years ago, and the two of them were hanging around outside all day, pulling Mr. Teacher's beard, needless to say, the most amazing thing was that time.

The two of them were bored, and they happened to meet someone getting married, and as soon as they combined, they made a plan to steal the bride! You heard it right, in the future, these two famous princes in the world actually went to steal other people's brides when they were children!

People originally set up a banquet and were drinking to celebrate, but they didn't expect Yuan Shao to run to the table and shout, there is a thief coming! Let's catch the thief! Everyone stood up and looked around, where are the thieves? At this time, Cao Cao sneaked into the cave room, and ran away with the bride, but when he ran, because Yuan Shao was stuck when he drilled the hole, Cao Cao went back to save him, so he asked the family to catch a ready-made one, and when he saw that it was a prank of two bad boys who had been officials for several generations, he obediently sent it back.

Everyone laughed, although it was a mess, but it could be seen that Cao Cao didn't care about them making fun of this matter, everyone was happy, Yuan Shao was responsible for breaking the news, Xu You was responsible for supplementing, these anecdotes also made Xiang Qing understand Cao Cao and Yuan Shao better.

Halfway through the words, Yuan Shao asked, "Did your old man go out?" In the past, when we were messing around at home, he had to take care of it. ”

Cao Cao burped and said, "I've gone to the West Garden." ”

Xu You's little eyes lit up, and he touched his goatee and said, "The West Garden is the realm of the ten permanent servants, and there is a good show to watch." ”

Several people made eye contact, and Xiang Qing immediately realized what these people were going to do.

Yuan Shao said: "Take a look? ”

Cao Cao slapped the table: "Let's go, go to the back door, I'll let Cao Da Cao Er watch it, and make sure that no one knows that I'm out of the house." ”

A few people staggered and slipped out of the back door drunkenly, and Xiang Qing also deliberately brought Xiang Xu with him, after all, his body has not fully recovered now, and he went to the territory of the ten permanent servants, in case of an accident, Xiang Xu can also protect a few of them.

The reason why the ten permanent servants were able to respond to the call in the court, in addition to mastering half of the Imperial Forest Army, is that this West Garden sells official offices.

As soon as you enter the West Garden, there is a huge billboard, which clearly marks the price, what official position, the price is geometric, and there is even a auction, the highest price wins, a county order can be sold at a good price, which is also the main means for Emperor Ling to sell officials and collect money.

It is often said that the Yuan Shao family is a protégé and an old official all over the world, that is because the Yuan family has mastered the way to become an official, and those who have become officials through the Yuan family's filial piety and honesty are all regarded as protégés and former officials, and the political attitude of these people must be consistent with the Yuan family, so the Yuan family has an authority that responds to all voices in the scholar family.

Because of this, the person who obtained the official position through the Xiyuan official sale should also be regarded as the former official of the Ten Standing Servants, so the political influence of the Ten Standing Servants cannot be underestimated, which is also one of the reasons for the eunuchs' chaotic government.

The little eunuch who was struggling to write asked without raising his head, "Where did you come from?" What official to buy? Have you brought enough gold or silver? ”

"Qiaoxian came, I didn't buy it, I didn't bring gold and silver, I asked Zhang Rang, the middle waiter."

"Hmph, then what are you doing here, didn't you see that sign at the door? Idlers and miscellaneous people are not allowed to enter, wasting my father-in-law's time, get out quickly! ”

The little eunuch just wanted to drive people away, and when he looked up, Cao Song was looking at him with a smile, and suddenly lost a smile.

"I don't know what Lord Cao is here, why are you here?"

"Didn't you say it, I came to find Zhang Rang."

The little eunuch thought for a while and said with a smile: "The little one has just been transferred, I don't know if Zhang Changzhi is in the West Garden, and I ask the adult to let the little one go and spread it, and then report to Lord Cao, you see ......"

Cao Song still looked smiling: "Go ahead, but you have to hurry, I'm impatient." ”

The little eunuch walked into the park with small steps, Cao Song was not the only one on his side, followed by Shang Shuling Cao Ding, Captain Changshui, and Cao Chi in the service, these three people each held heavy power, and they were the contemporary pillars of the Cao family.

The little eunuch went and came back quickly, he said that a few adults were invited, and he took the three giants all the way to the garden, he didn't dare to speak loudly, just walked forward, Cao Song is a good man, yes, this Cao Chi is famous for looking at eunuchs unpleasantly, if he doesn't serve well, he has to lose his life, he is a little eunuch, Zhang Rang will not care.

Fortunately, there was no danger along the way, and he didn't dare to wipe his sweat, so he leaned sideways and stretched out his hand at the door and said, "Three adults, please, several regular attendants are waiting inside." ”

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the two sides were neatly arranged, and the left side was already full, from front to back were Jian Shuo, Guo Sheng, Cao Jie, Duan Jue, Cheng Kuang, Sun Zhang, Gao Wang, Zhang Gong Eight people, because the Qin and Han dynasties were respected by the right, and they treated the right in vain to show respect.

As soon as Cao Song and the three of them sat down, Jian Shuo couldn't wait to stand up: "Cao Song! Your son killed my uncle, you must give me an explanation for this matter! ”

Cao Song straightened his sleeves and said calmly: "I don't know what the old man wants to explain to you?" ”

Jian Shuo was stunned by this question, he was a martial artist, and he only wanted to ask Cao Song to give an explanation, but he didn't think of how to explain the law.

Cao Song took out a bamboo slip and handed it to the little eunuch standing beside him, and asked him to take it for the ten permanent attendants to take turns to look through, but most of their group of permanent attendants were illiterate, but fortunately, they already knew the content of the bamboo slip.

"I believe you have already read it, this is written by the dog, for the death of the dog, it is clearly written that he violated the curfew, so he was killed with a stick, this matter is not at fault in the law."

Cao Jie opened his mouth and said: "It makes sense, this matter is really not to blame on others. ”

This Cao Jie actually has some relationship with Cao Fu, Cao Song's adoptive father is the eunuch Cao Teng, and this Cao Jie is also Cao Teng's adopted son, so the two of them should be considered brothers.

Jian Shuo snorted coldly: "Hmph, Cao Changshou is quite good at talking to his own family." ”

Cao Jie didn't refute either, among the ten permanent servants, he was ranked last and had the lowest status, so he could only give Cao Song a few glances and signal that he couldn't be too partial, otherwise he would be easily excluded from the circle.

Guo Sheng got up and said: "Lord Cao, I have read the curfew regulations, it is not written on it, if you violate the curfew, you will be killed, this matter is indeed overkill Linglang, you must always give Jian Chang an explanation, both sides must be passable." ”

Cao Ding stood up and said, "Didn't Guo Changshou read the case report? It was written that this plot not only violated the curfew and disobeyed the punishment, but also ordered the guards to attack the officials. ”

Duan Jue asked, "Is there an eyewitness who saw it with his own eyes and ordered the guards to attack the officials?" ”

Cao Chi said: "Call all the officials of Beicheng, and everyone can testify." ”

Jian Shuo said angrily: "How do we know if you have bought all the servants!" My uncle's guards were all killed with a sword, and this was done to make this matter die without evidence, you have no basis for saying this, I don't believe it, my uncle was maliciously killed by that Cao Mengde! ”

Cao Song said: "What grievances does your uncle have with my son? My son has no reason to deliberately kill your uncle, but he is just acting impartially and being loyal to the court. ”

"It's on purpose! Zhang Chang's sons, Zhang Ju and Bi Lan, all died at the hands of your son, and it was expected that your son hated my uncle, but I didn't expect that Cao Mengde to kill my uncle by such despicable means! ”

"Zhang Juqiang robbed the people's daughters, mutilated the people, three families and ten people on Wentao Street died at his hands, and threw their bodies on the street, shouldn't such a lewd thief be killed? Bi Lan was instructed by Zhang Ju to attack the officials, causing Liu Hu's mother to die tragically at home, shouldn't such a thief be killed? Or is it that the backers behind these two people are the constant attendants, so they dare to do anything wrong? ”

"No, Cao Song, you don't have to spew blood here! These things were all done by Bi Lan and Zhang Ju themselves, and they have nothing to do with us! ”
