Chapter 14 A Piano Jiaowei
Today's Cao Ang was in a good mood, sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard and blowing a small tune, his heart was even happier than drinking a large bucket of cold Coke on the day of the day, just because today was the monthly holiday of the Tun Riding Camp. Cao Ang happily got up late, until near noon, Cao Ang was in the same comfortable mood as today's weather, and he had a whim to write a few nouns about it, like Cao Cao, Cao Zhi left a literary name and history, but don't look at Cao Ang knows history, but the ink in his stomach is really limited, let him write a Chinese word is like killing him, and he didn't hold back a fart for a long time, and finally had to throw down the pen and inkstone, and go out to cool off.
Sitting in the garden, while drinking the fragrant tea paid tribute by Sichuan, Cao Ang, who was reading "Liutao", was really a rare comfort, Li Nu, Xu Nu and others were busy in the garden from time to time, and appropriately embellished some vitality for the quiet garden.
Just when Cao Ang was enjoying this rare pleasure, Yang Yuan came to report: "The eldest son, a few little sons are here." Cao Ang was stunned when he heard this, and then hurriedly got up and said, "Go back quickly, just say I'm not there!" ”
"Big brother~" As soon as the words fell, I heard bursts of laughter from outside the park, mixed with the calls of a group of boys, Cao Ang grinned bitterly, it seems that a rare holiday will have to be so wasted.
I saw three teenagers running into the park in a hurry, the two in front were Cao Pi and Cao Zhang, and the other rather old boy behind them was Cao Cao's adopted son Cao Zhen. In the past, when Cao Cao and Chen Liu's troops were raised, Cao Zhen's father Qin Shao recruited troops for him, and then he was victimized. Treat it as if it were your own.
Cao Ang looked at the three boys who walked in front and back, and couldn't help but smile bitterly at the corner of his mouth, he had been in Sikong Mansion for several months, as long as he had a little leisure, he would be entangled by Cao Pi and Cao Zhang, and the pain was really not humane.
"Second brother, third brother, real brother, why are you here?" The matter has come to this point, Cao Ang is also helpless, objectively speaking, sometimes, Cao Ang even feels that he is more tired than practicing with Xiahou Yuan with these two brothers.
"Big brother, I'm so angry!" I saw Cao Pi sitting on the stool with an angry face, his slender and long eyes were full of anger, and Xiao Cao Zhang on the side was also quite unhappy standing aside, looking unhappy.
"Hehe, second brother, who provoked you like this?" Cao Pi opened his mouth angrily, but he didn't say anything after all, Cao Ang shook his head helplessly, turned his head to Cao Zhen behind him and asked, "True brother, what's going on?" ”
Cao Zhen is about thirteen or fourteen years old, a little older than Cao Pi, probably because he is the son of a step-son, Cao Zhen is very sensible, and he is also very hard at reading and practicing martial arts. Compared with Cao Pi and Cao Zhang, who are lively and troublesome all day, Cao Zhen can please Cao Ang even more.
"Back to my brother, I and my two younger brothers on Nancheng Street, accidentally took a fancy to a touch of the guqin, the strings are clear and woody, a glance will know that the extraordinary product, Mrs. Bian likes music, the best Yiqin song and dance on weekdays, the two younger brothers see that the guqin seems to be an extraordinary product, want to buy it with a lot of money, to honor Mrs., but the woman holding the qin has just broken her temperament, and she refuses to give up the piano in her hand, and sees that her brother insists on buying, the woman actually rushed out, and put the younger brother.. knocked down in the street..."
Cao Ang couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, these two stinky boys are too domineering, there are still things in the world that are forced to buy and sell? Alas, too, the two of them have been the pride of the sky since they were children, although Cao Cao is very strict, but the two of them also want the wind to be windy, to rain and rain, no one has just collided with each other, and today Cao Pi is even more ugly on the street, no wonder the two of them are so angry.
Cao Ang shook his head and smiled helplessly, then patted Cao Pi's shoulder and said, "Alas, this is a big deal, it annoys you like this, isn't it just a piano, one day the eldest brother will buy you ten of its eight." ”
Cao Pi suddenly turned his head when he heard this, and complained to Cao Ang with an unwilling face: "Big brother, you don't know, that piano is by no means a vulgar product, I'm afraid that the entire Xu Du can't find an ordinary product that can be compared with it, ordinary products, why should I be in such a hurry to buy it with my mother, not to mention" Cao Pi said here and couldn't help pouting: "That woman is so bold that she dares to offend my son!" How can I swallow this breath! ”
Seeing Cao Pi like this, Cao Ang couldn't help but smile helplessly, this kid is good anywhere, but this character is really a little bit Seeing Cao Pi's face of resentment and anger, Cao Ang's heart turned around and said: "Anyway, if there is nothing to do today, I will follow him to find the qin, otherwise if this kid does something out of line, it will always be bad for it to be passed on to his father." ”
Thinking of this, Cao Ang smiled at Cao Pi and said, "Okay, how about the eldest brother get justice for you today?" Let's go to Nancheng to reason with the woman! But seeing Yang Yuan on the side hearing this, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "It's a trivial matter, He Lao and the two sons, when the villain leads a pair of family members to go, he will definitely capture that slut..."
In the afternoon, the south of Xudu City was still bustling, Cao Ang took a few younger brothers and a group of attendants to look back and forth in Xudu City, and Xudu City was extremely lively. The two capitals of the Han Dynasty, Luoyang and Chang'an, were successively damaged and decayed by the rebellion of Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, and Guo Yan, and the momentum was not as good as before. On the contrary, Xudu, as well as Yecheng in Hebei, are thriving, and the buildings of Mashi, Lishi, and Jinshi are quite distinctive. I saw a forest of shops on both sides of the flat and wide side, from silk food to tea hairpins.
Cao Ang was looking at it comfortably, and saw Cao Pi suddenly pull his sleeve, and then pointed to the corner of a shop in front of him and said, "Big brother! That's her! Cao Ang looked up when he heard this, and couldn't help but be stunned, was that a woman? If it weren't for what Cao Pi said beforehand, Cao Ang would have thought that it would be a begging for food.
A few people walked up to the woman, only to see that she was unkempt and ragged, and she was really miserable. Although there are such poor people everywhere in the troubled times, but such people are very few in Xudu, the woman seems to have fallen asleep, holding a gray-black thing tightly in her arms, it should be the guqin that Cao Pi said, but it was reported very tightly by the woman, and she couldn't see the shape clearly.
"Hey, hey! Get up and pretend to sleep! I saw Cao Pi kicking on the woman's shoulder, the woman suddenly woke up from her sleep like a frightened bird, and then suddenly raised her head, and when she saw Cao Pi, she saw that she instantly hugged the thing in her arms tightly, and said in a panic: "Why are you so pestering this child, I said that I don't sell this piano!" ”
Cao Pi's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness in an instant, and he said coldly: "Sell? Hum! I don't want to buy it yet! Yang Yuan, grab it for me! Yang Yuan, who was behind him, did not immediately make a move when he heard this, but looked at Cao Ang on the side inquiringly.
Seeing Cao Ang shaking his head gently, Yang Yuan hurriedly lowered his head and stood aside indifferent. After Cao Pi finished speaking, he stood with his hands in his hands, and saw that Yang Yuan had not moved for a long time, so he couldn't help but be slightly angry, but saw Cao Ang gently patted him on the shoulder, and then squatted down and said to the beggar girl: "Girl, look at your appearance, don't you seem to be from Xu Du?" ”
The woman shrank back slightly, and the piano in her hand tightened. Cao Ang couldn't help but be silent in his heart, "Damn! I look like a bad guy like that? Then he said to the woman, "Tell the truth, girl." I see that you have no long things, this piano is really a burden to you, you sell it to me, not only can solve your urgent needs, but also can follow my brother's wishes, what do you think? ”
As if afraid that the woman would not believe it, Cao Ang hurriedly continued: "I will pay a hundred dollars, how about it?" When the woman heard this, she just shook her head vigorously and said, "Don't sell it!" A thousand dollars, ten thousand dollars do not sell! ”
"Bold!" Cao Pi endured it for a long time, and finally couldn't help it at this time, "You don't sell it!" Okay, then I'll fulfill you! Grab it for me! This time, Cao Pi had a heart, and he didn't look for Yang Yuan, but directly ordered all the attendants, where are these people Yang Yuan sensible to see Cao Ang's face, Cao Pi gave an order, and he saw a group of family members like wolves and tigers and wanted to pounce.
Seeing this, the woman was stunned for a moment, then began to cry and sob, "Don't, don't!" This scorched tail is the only thing that Miss left me, and I... I won't die either! ”
"Stop!" Hearing only a broken drink, everyone was dumbfounded, only to see Cao Ang get up suddenly, carefully look at the guqin in the woman's hand for a long time, and then slowly spoke: "Girl, what you said is 'Jiaoweiqin'?" ”
The woman couldn't speak at this time, just sobbing, and nodded lightly when she heard Cao Ang's words, Cao Ang's heart jumped, and then a thousand thoughts began to turn in her heart in an instant.
In ancient China, there were four beauties, and at the same time, there were also four famous pianos. They are the bell of Duke Qi Huan, the winding beam of King Chuzhuang, the green qi of Sima Xiangru, and the Jiaowei of Cai Yong. It is said that when this scorched tail was not made into a piano, it was put into the stove in the fire, and then Cai Yong listened to the crackling sound of the wood in the fire, so he hurriedly took out the sycamore wood from the fire, and then wound it into a piano, because its tail was burned, so it was called the scorched tail.
But Cao Ang was thinking about another big thing at this time, Cai Yong and Luoyang were not allowed to be allowed to be tolerated by Wang Yun because of Dong Zhuo's use, and they had already died, so this Jiao Weiqin should be kept by his descendants.
Thinking of this, Cao Ang hurriedly leaned over and asked, "The young lady you are talking about is Cai Yan, the daughter of Cai Yong?" Hearing this, the woman couldn't help but look up at Cao Ang and said, "How do you know the name of my family?" ”
"Sure enough!" Cao Ang secretly said in his heart, it seems that Cai Wenji must have let the Huns take it, this maid came to Xu Du alone with this Jiao Weiqin, didn't she ask for help from Cao Cao?
Thinking of this, I saw Cao Ang bowing his head and smiling slightly: "Girl, I can't hide it, I am Cao Ang, the son of Lord Sikong of the Dynasty, my father was familiar with your family, and I just heard the name of Jiao Weiqin, so I have this question." The woman's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said hurriedly: "You... Are you Cao Sikong's son? Seeing Cao Ang nodding slightly, the woman hurriedly leaned over and fell to the ground: "The little woman has something to ask to see Lord Sikong, and ask the son to introduce her. ”

Sikong Mansion, Study - "Smack! I saw that a book on the bookcase was thrown to the ground by Cao Cao, and Cao Ang on the side just stood quietly beside him, seemingly unmoved, and the beggar girl who was kneeling down at this time was trembling with fright, and her eyes couldn't help but look nervously at Cao Cao, who was extremely angry.
"Hu Nu deceives people too much!" I saw Cao Cao stand up fiercely, things were as Cao Ang thought, two years ago Li Guo's rebellion, Yang Feng and others led the Southern Huns into the Central Plains to quell the chaos, Cai's family was attacked, Cai Yan was captured by the rebel army, and lived in Mobei, for the Zuoxian Wang's Yan family, as for this woman is the daughter of the former Gaoyang Township Hou servant, Cai Yan's personal maid, Cai Yan took her name Yu'er, and her own coincidence' Yanyu'.
After Cai Yan was kidnapped by the Huns, Yu'er remembered that Cai Yan treated herself like a sister on weekdays, and thought that she was alone in the Northern Plains, often holding Jiao Weiqin and secretly saddened herself, and then Cao Cao welcomed the reputation of the Son of Heaven, Yu'er thought that Cao Cao and Cai Yong had an old relationship, maybe Cai Yan could be saved back to Han, so she worked hard and rushed to Xuchang from Yuxian alone, hoping to find an opportunity to meet Cao Cao.
"Please Sikong-sama save my young lady!" Looking at Yu'er who couldn't stop buckling her head on the ground, Cao Cao's heart softened, recalling that in the past, Luoyang had Cai Yong to guide Wen Mo, and he was also a teacher and friend, and talked with Cai Yan about ancient texts, citing him as a confidant, and said with a long sigh: "Yu'er, you have the right to go down and rest first, Zhao Ji's matter, you should save her back alone, in order to comfort the spirit of Bo Gong in the sky." ”
"Thank you, Sikong-sama." Looking at Yu'er, who was full of tears on her face, Cao Cao couldn't help but praise her forehead: "It's really a loyal and righteous woman, come here, take her down to freshen up and eat, take care of her, don't slack off!" ”
After Yu'er left, Cao Cao lay on the desk, rubbed his slightly painful forehead, and then stroked the scorched tail qin, if there was nostalgia on his face, the guqin shape was simple and elegant, An thirteen strings, paulownia wood was full of fragrance, the body pattern was mottled, and the tail was scorched black. After a while, Cao Cao turned his head to look at Cao Ang and said: "Zixiu, this Yu'er girl is temporarily living in your garden, you have to make good arrangements, and don't slack off on the courtesy." ”
"No. Father rest assured. Cao Ang bowed to Cao Cao and replied, "It's just that, father, if Miss Yu'er asks about the child, when will she save Cai's family, I don't know what the child should say." ”
"Alas, you have the right to retreat perfunctorily." Cao Cao kicked the ball back again, Cao Ang couldn't help but curse in his heart, but he was also polite and cautious: "No." ”
"Alas, now that the power of Middle-earth is weakening, and the Huns are rampant, I am afraid it is not an auspicious omen." After being silent for a long time, Cao Cao sighed faintly. Cao Ang glanced at Cao Cao, who was thinking deeply, and didn't know whether to speak at this time, but after weighing the pros and cons, Cao Ang finally spoke slowly: "Father, the child thinks that the threat of the Hu people outside the Guanwai to Middle-earth can no longer be covered by just a 'megalowatt'. ”
Cao Cao woke up when he heard this, turned his head and said softly: "You are referring to the Huns, Qiang, Di, Xianbei and other Hu tribes. Cao Ang's heart steadied and said, "It turns out that he knows." ”
Cao Cao slowly sighed with his forehead: "Since Emperor Wu subdued the Huns, the Hu people have continued to migrate to the Central Plains, and now it is a big tail, how can this loneliness not know, not to mention" Cao Cao shook his head and sighed and said: "What's more, now that the Han family is declining, it is difficult to have the power of the past, and in the long run, it will be difficult for my Middle Earth to have the power of shaking the Hulu and sweeping the frontier in the past." ”
Cao Ang nodded when he heard this: "Father, in fact, the child feels that in the long run, greater disasters are still to come. Nowadays, the civil strife in Middle-earth is not stopping, and the number of people is decreasing, but the people of foreign races are becoming more and more abundant, and in the long run, the future of Middle-earth is worrying. ”
After Cao Cao heard the words and was silent for a long time, the cold light in his eyes gradually soared, and when he was young, he saw Cao Cao get up and said, "It's just that it's not the time yet, Zixiu, you look at this." ”
Cao Ang hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the wooden slip in Cao Cao's hand, and looked at it carefully, it was a secret letter submitted by the Huainan scout, writing to Yuan Shu and Shouchun to build a large number of buildings, build an altar and build a palace, and embroider yellow and black brocade clothes, which is really disrespectful. Seeing this, Cao Ang sighed in his heart: "It's finally here, Yuan Shu is ready to be the emperor!" ”
And Cao Cao in the other side of the box was looking at the gradually cloudy sky outside the window at this time, his eyes flickered brightly and darkly, and for a long time, he saw a smile on the corner of his mouth, like a mockery, as if he said pitifully: "This day, it's going to change!" ”
