Chapter Twenty-Four: I Want to See the Sea

There will be no result in this matter, because Cao Cao is cautious in this matter, and there is no time in terms of law, and there is no monitoring in this era, and no one else will know whether the plan really attacked the official that day.

After all, it was the Ten Standing Servants who died here, not one, but three, that Zhang Ju was the captain of the military academy, and it was also an important position, and he was killed all at once, and the losses on their side were not small.

Some words are inconvenient to put on the table to say, now the emperor has ignored the government, and it is common not to go to court for a month, so the deliberations between the DPRK and China are basically discussed by these big forces, one side is the spokesperson group of the ten permanent servants in the court, one side is the general He Jin group, and the other side is the family group like Yuan Kui.

Several forces are intricate, and no one dares to offend anyone, but suddenly a Cao Cao appears, who does not follow the rules and destroys the balance, then he must give an explanation to the Ten Standing Servants Group, otherwise the Ten Standing Servants and the Cao family will go to war, which will not be good for everyone.

The two sides are fighting with each other, openly and secretly are actually talking about the exchange of interests, only Jian Shuo is a reckless man, and the others have already negotiated their own conditions, but Jian Shuo just doesn't let go, and everyone is very embarrassed, after all, the Zhongchang servants present are all brains, Jian Shuo has always been the commander of this half of the Royal Forest Army, has been practicing martial arts, so brave and ruthless, but the brain is not easy to use.

When everyone was entangled, a few uninvited guests suddenly came in, and it was not an outsider to look closely, lying on the roof staring, and Yuan Shao, who peeked through the cracks in the tile, had a question mark on his face.

"Originally, wasn't that your uncle Yuan Kui? What is he doing here? Cao Cao asked.

Yuan Shao scratched his head: "I don't know, although we have a good relationship, I have never heard of any connection between my uncle and your old man." ”

Xiang Qing couldn't lie down, he could only sit and watch, fortunately, this body had excellent eyesight, but he could see it clearly, and he put his hands on his cheeks and said, "If there is any connection, you will know." ”

Yuan Kui didn't come alone, followed by Yuan Ping, Yuan Cheng, Yuan Feng and other contemporary heads of the Yuan family group, this small West Garden, gathered so many big people at once, the carriage parked at the door was also famous and surnamed, and many people passed by the West Garden and kept looking sideways, wanting to see what was going on so much.

There are three forces in the lobby, and the first sentence Yuan Kui said when he came in: "Everyone, why bother arguing over a trivial matter, I, Yuan Kui, should still have a little thin face, I heard about this matter and came here to be a mediator for both sides, I don't know what you think?" ”

There is no official tone, a clear vernacular, as soon as I hear it, I know that Yuan Kui is here to make peace with the mud, no matter what the truth is, it is Cao Song's side that needs to pay a price to settle this matter, and he Yuan Kui came to be a mediator, in fact, to help Cao Song, so as to obtain a part of the benefits.

In fact, there is not much interest to be divided in this matter, Yuan Kui also came with wishful thinking, now, He Jin has military power in his hands, except for the Royal Forest Army, other military camps are under the orders of General He Jin, and the ten permanent servants are also in the court, and there is Emperor Ling, and the political influence accounts for most of it, relatively speaking, the influence of a family like Yuan in the court is getting weaker and weaker, which is what Yuan Kui does not want to see, and it is also what the sergeants in the court do not want to see.

He came to help Cao Song, also in order to win over the scholars and clans in the court, so that his Yuan family could become the representative of the scholars in the court, so as to become the third major force.

What we talk about later is nothing more than some details, when these "old fritters" began to quote scriptures and classics, and spoke in an official tone, Xiang Qing couldn't understand it anymore, and even a little sleepy, which is the same as the translation of classical Chinese, anyway, he understood the general meaning.

The Cao family lost money and gave up part of the rights, including the position of the northern lieutenant of Luoyang, and also gave it away, but not to the ten permanent servants, but to Yuan Kui, the ten permanent servants knew that the two sides of Yuan Cao were clearly wearing a pair of pants, but they also obtained some favorable conditions to satisfy their appetites, and they were considered to have earned, and they lost an inconsequential plot in exchange for a part of the political rights, so the deal was quite cost-effective.

At this time, in the royal back garden, a sea of flowers, fragrant and overflowing, the Lingdi wearing a dragon robe was blindfolded with a golden ribbon at the moment, touching around, those beautiful concubines who scattered and fled, smiling lightly, also deliberately let the Lingdi inadvertently touch their delicate skin that could be blown and broken, so that the Lingdi was elated.

The big eunuchs, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, stood in the distance with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, these two people were the leaders of the ten permanent servants, and the two of them were not in the West Garden at the moment, but they were playing with Emperor Ling in the back garden.

Emperor Ling was tired of playing, took off the golden ribbon, Zhang Rang and Zhao Xiaoxiao stepped forward and carefully wiped the beads of sweat from Emperor Ling's forehead with a small handkerchief.

Emperor Ling looked at Zhang Rang and asked, "What happened to Xiyuan today, why is it so lively?" ”

Zhang made Zhao Zhong feel shocked, this Spirit Emperor didn't care about the government, and the two of them just got the news about the West Garden today, where did the news of this Spirit Emperor come from?

"Your Majesty, it's Cao Cao, the new lieutenant in the north of Luoyang, who killed Jian Chang's uncle Jian Tu, where are they fighting at the moment."

Emperor Ling called a concubine over, put one arm on the woman's shoulder, and said, "I already know the ins and outs of this matter, what I ask is, why don't you two go?" ”

Zhang asked Zhao Zhong to make eye contact, and Zhang Rang replied: "Your Majesty, if the old slave two go, in case the two sides quarrel, there is no step to go down, this West Garden is Your Majesty's business, and making noise in the West Garden is also a refutation of Your Majesty's dragon face, everyone's face is not good-looking, the old slave and the two don't go, both sides still have room to spare, so as not to stiffen the relationship." ”

Zhao Zhong took over: "Yes, Your Majesty, if the two of us don't go, it's also for Your Majesty, if the two of us are not in the palace, how lonely Your Majesty should be, if Your Majesty is unhappy, then we can't be happy at all, Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Ling laughed: "Hahaha, what I said is that in the backyard of this deep palace, if there is no Zhang Changzhi and Zhao Changshi, then I will indeed be lonely, hahaha." ”

Emperor Ling walked to the palace, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong followed behind, taking small steps, low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, not like two powerful eunuchs at all, but they knew in their hearts that this majesty still has some Taoism, if they are not well served, no matter how big the eunuchs are, they can also determine life and death.

When passing through the corridor, Emperor Ling stopped in front of Wang Yue in Langzhong, who was kneeling and bowing.

The so-called Lang Zhongling is actually the head of the waiter, what is the waiter? The emperor personally selected young people with high political consciousness and high ideology and morality to be Lang, the servant is the guard, and the Lang Zhongling is the chief of the guard, these young people are promoted to Lang, which is to open the channel to be an official, and they will soon become officials appointed by the imperial court, because the waiter is a guard standing in the "corridor", so it is called "Lang", and cultivating the waiter is also a way to cultivate talents in this era.

"Wang Yue, I heard that your two junior brothers have come to Luoyang, you are very affectionate, do you want to meet?"

Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, the minister has just seen you." ”

Emperor Ling clapped his hands: "This is very good, it just so happens that Empress Song wants to call Cao Cao, where are your two junior disciples in Cao Cao, Xuan Zhen's will, you go and call these three people into the palace." ”

"Obey."

Xiyuan discussed for an hour, and Xiang Qingdu, who listened, was about to fall asleep, the upper eyelids and the lower eyelids fought, one arm was on the head, and the head was like a fishing rod, sinking unconsciously, and then lifting it up all at once, and then slowly sinking.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao listened attentively, because both of them were new to officialdom, and this level of confrontation benefited the two of them a lot, and they both learned a lot.

Xiang Xu was not bored, holding a long sword in his arms, his eyes looking into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiang Qing's head fell too heavy all of a sudden, and he woke up in an instant, smacked his lips, wiped the saliva from his lips with his sleeve, and looked at Xiang Xu's focused appearance, he stood up and touched Xiang Xu's head.

"Xiao Xu, what do you want?"

Xiang Xu turned his head and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm wondering, is there a place in this world where there is water, boundless water." ”

Xiang Qing said without thinking: "The sea is full of water. ”

Xiang Xu asked suspiciously, "The sea?" What is the sea? ”

"Let me tell you this, the land under our feet, it is a spherical shape, a total of ten points, seven points is the ocean, only three points of land, the sea is boundless, all water, if you are lucky enough, on the sea, you can also see whales jumping out of the sea, a whale falls, all things are born, the sea is very magical."

"The sea, the whale falls ......" Xiang Xu scratched his head, and then said seriously: "Brother, I want to see what the sea looks like." ”

Xiang Qing messed up Xiang Xu's hair, looked at his sparkling eyes and said gently, "Brother will definitely take you to see the sea." ”

At this time, the following discussion has also ended, Yuan Kui and Cao Song each took the Yuan family and the people of the Cao family to return home, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were still unsatisfied, and their minds were frantically studying the dialogue of the big men just now.

Yuan Shao let out a sigh and said, "Huh, my uncle is really scheming, I still have a lot of important things to learn from my uncle." ”

Cao Cao nodded: "Well, we're still too tender." ”

Xiang Qing patted the shoulders of these two: "Two, I'm sleepy, big brother, my godfather is going back, if my godfather finds out that you have slipped away, maybe how will I punish you?" ”

Cao Cao patted his head: "Yes, yes, yes, let's hurry back and go." ”

Yuan Shao clenched his fists and said: "Meng De, Junhe, the two of us will leave first, you go back quickly, let's talk about it another day and say goodbye." ”

The two sides said goodbye, Yuan Shao took Xu You, Xiang Xu jumped off the roof with Xiang Qing, and the three of them hurriedly ran back to Cao's mansion.

"Pass on Your Majesty's oral message, Xuan Cao Cao, Xiang Qing, and Xiang Xu will enter the palace immediately, there must be no mistake, and I will do this."
