Chapter Twenty-Seven: Finally Return to Xudu

Since then, Cao Ang's daily work has been added, that is, the compilation of the annotation of the "New Book of Mengde". But fortunately, he pulled Diao Chan as a helper, although Diao Chan is not good at making notes, but when it comes to lettering, it is first-class, compared to Cao Ang, who put down the pen and picked up the carving knife is much more powerful.

On this day, Diao Chan read a poem "Artemisia in the Journey" in Cao Cao's poetry collection, "There are righteous men in the Kanto region, and the army is raised to fight against the people." In the early days, the alliance was in Jin, and the heart was in Xianyang. The forces of the army were uneven, and they hesitated and walked wildly. Snobbery makes people fight, and heirs fight each other. The title of Huainan brother is engraved in the north. The armor is full of lice, and all surnames are killed."

Reading and reading, I saw that Diao Chan's face was a little gloomy, obviously remembering the painful things in Chang'an in the past, Cao Ang over there was reading a chapter of "The Book of Soldiers", and suddenly heard Diao Chan no movement, looked up, but found that she was looking down and contemplating, and her face was quite gloomy.

Cao Ang looked down at the bamboo slip that Diao Chan was still holding in his hand, and suddenly took it in his hand to look through it, but he was taken aback by Diao Chan, and then frowned: "What are you doing?" ”

Cao Ang ignored her, just looked at the "Artemisia in the Journey" in his hand, understood it in his heart, and said with a smile: "I see, you are fascinated by reading poetry, no wonder, our Cao family is all poetry masters, just catch any one, and you can export it into a chapter." It's not unusual for you to be drawn to my father's poetry. ”

Diao Chan heard this: "What about you? Cao Ang smiled, and then said: "Naturally, I don't have a problem, I'll say a poem, see if you can catch it, and you can hear: 'Today's student knocks on the ground.'" ’”

Diao Chan frowned when he heard this: "Your words are not neat, and you have no words to find, who can pick them up?" Cao Ang smiled: "Why can't you catch it?" I'll give you the next sentence: 'Last night, my mother's feet were in the sky! ’

"You!" Diao Chan suddenly blushed when she heard this, and Cao Ang looked at her funny and said, "What?" Be convinced, don't think nonsense if you're convinced, and carve the book well. ”

Diao Chan was stunned when he heard this, it turned out that he was actually saying something foreign to distract himself, so as not to be too sad. Thinking of this, Diao Chan glanced at Cao Ang with a little gratitude, and continued to bow his head to the school.

At this time, he saw Hu Shi outside: "General, Xu Dulai's Fu Jie ordered Dong Zhao to come to visit the general." Now I am waiting in the main hall. "Cao Ang was secretly surprised when he heard this, Dong Zhao? I don't seem to know him well, what is he doing when he comes to visit me?

When he came to the main hall, there was a person waiting for him, his face was ruddy, and his spirit was excellent, it was Fu Jie Ling Dong Zhao, seeing Cao Ang coming out, Dong Zhao hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "General, Dong Zhao took the liberty to visit and disturbed the general's rest, please forgive the general." ”

Seeing this, Cao Ang hurriedly saluted, and then invited Dong Zhao to sit down, and said with a smile: "In the past, in the court of Xudu, I talked about meeting Dong Gong a few times, but I rarely had the opportunity to talk. ”

Dong Zhao smiled when he heard this: "Thank you for the general's concern, Dong Zhao is all right." Cao Ang smiled politely, and continued: "I don't know if Dong Gong came all the way from Xu Du to Xu County, what is the so-called matter?" ”

Dong Zhao said: "Before the general left Xudu, Sikong once played the Son of Heaven, canonized the three people of the Cai family in Jingzhou as Nanjun, Jiangxia and Nanyang three counties Taishou, as well as some other Jingzhou famous disciples, and now, the Son of Heaven ordered Dong Zhao to go to Xiangyang to canonize, so he first came to Xu County to report to Lord Sikong, and Lord Sikong ordered Zhao to visit the general before leaving, in order to listen to the teachings. ”

So that's the case, Cao Ang knew in his heart when he heard this, and the private conspiracy with Cai Mao was planned by Cao Ang, and now that Dong Zhao was edicted to go to Xiangyang, Cao Cao asked him to come and ask for advice, which should be.

After thinking for a moment, Cao Angyan said: "Cai Mao is a friend of us, and when the prince goes to Xiangyang this time, he doesn't have to guard against him, just let him arrange everything." ”

Dong Zhao said lightly: "It's just that there is an order, after canonizing the three Cai families, when there is still a need to have some peace talks with Liu Biao, according to the general's opinion, how sure is this matter?" ”

Cao Ang said lightly: "Liu Jingsheng is a person who guards the success, and now there is more Cai's dissuasion, our army will not offend him, and he will not come to offend our army, Dong Gong will go, just persuade him with the reason of sympathy for the hardships of the people and the suffering of the people, and express his willingness to make an agreement with Liu Jingsheng, and always be an alliance and not attack each other." If Liu Biao responds, then it is the best, if he puts up a fight and delays, Dong Gong doesn't have to pay attention to him, just go back to Xu Du, after all, as long as a good student befriends Cai Mao. ”

Dong Zhao woke up when he heard this, and it turned out that the focus was not to befriend Liu Biao, but to befriend Cai's family, and then said: "In this case, Na Zhao will understand, and he can go to Jingzhou tomorrow." ”

Cao Ang smiled on his forehead, and suddenly said: "By the way, Dong Gong, you go to Xiangyang this time, and please visit someone on my behalf, Cao Mou will be reused for him." Wen Gong is good at arguing, and he also bothered to ask the public to say that he came over. ”

Dong Zhao heard this: "I don't know who it is? Cao Ang chuckled: "There should be a person under Liu Biao's account, called Wei Yan, what is the specific official position Cao I forgot, but I think it should be insignificant, this person is young, when he has not been reused, if the public can't find him, he will ask Cai Mao for help, and he will not be able to enter Cai Mao's eyes." ”

"Wei. Dong Zhao repeated word by word for a moment, and then said lightly: "The general wants this person? Cao Ang hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, I want this person." Dong Zhao then smiled and said: "In this case, Zhao will do his best!" ”

The end of the year is approaching, Cao Cao after arranging Xuzhou, the army finally returned to Xudu in triumph, and with Cao Cao to Xudu and returned to Xu with the three brothers Liu Bei, looking at the three people in the distance on the horse, Cao Ang sighed in his heart, after returning to Xudu, how to deal with Liu Bei and the three?

"What does the general think?" Cao Ang was stunned when he heard this, and then looked back, but it was Guo Jia riding a white horse and slowly came to Cao Ang: "The general is thinking about a strategy to deal with Liu Bei?" ”

Cao Ang chuckled: "It's not all, what does Brother Feng Xiao have to teach me?" But seeing Guo Jia helplessly, he waved his hand and said: "It's not a secret, Ming Gong has a lot of trust in Liu Bei, and Jia has no good plan." ”

Cao Ang said in a low voice: "If Brother Feng Xiao didn't have a good plan, he wouldn't come to talk to me, right?" Guo Jia smiled when he heard this, and said softly: "Although Jia has no good plan, but he has accepted one person, maybe it will be of some use in the future, and after the son returns to Xu Capital, he can come to Guo Jia's mansion to see it." ”

————

A few days later, the army finally returned to Xudu, and Xudu was still as usual, and the whole city was full of life and full of life. Merchants abound on both sides of the street. And Cao Ang led Diao Chan and Tong Yuan back to the long-lost Sikong Mansion.

As soon as Tong Yuan returned to the house, he went to his own small courtyard, and when everyone in the mansion saw Diao Chan, they were all cited as celestials, Yang Yuan exclaimed in surprise: "The general actually brought back a fairy?" ”

Cao Ang frowned and gave Yang Yuan a brain meltdown, and said with a heavy face: "Stinky boy, what nonsense!" Haven't you ever seen a woman? It's really a shame for the general, where to go and stay cool. ”

Then he turned to Diao Chan and said, "You come with me." Following the lead to Hengwu Garden, Cao Ang pointed to the courtyard in the middle and said: "This is Hengwu Garden, from today on, you will live here." ”

Diao Chan looked at it carefully for a moment, and then praised: "Hengwu Yuan... Good name. Cao Ang said proudly when he heard this: "This is what I started, how about it, poetic enough, right?" ”

Diao Chan smiled faintly and did not answer, although he wanted to chat with her for a while, but Cao Angshang still had something to go to Guo Jia's mansion, and then instructed Li Nu and others: "You guys take good care of her, this woman has a lot of problems, likes to be quiet and doesn't like noise, likes light food, doesn't like sweet, sleeps until noon every day, wakes her up early, and gets up gas"

"You... What nonsense are you talking about..."Diao Chan turned his head and glared at Cao Ang angrily when he heard this, Cao Ang smiled faintly and said: "The last two are my blind guesses, but I didn't say anything wrong about the front ones, right?" Looking at Diao Chan, who had a slightly embarrassed face, and Li Nu and Xu Nu, who couldn't hide their smiles, Cao Ang waved his hand at them, and then turned to leave, leaving Diao Chan and Li Nu and others whispering, "Hehe, the general is still the same as before." ”

But said that Cao Ang said goodbye to Diao Chan, so he led his subordinates to Guo Jia's mansion, at this time it was getting late, I heard that Cao Ang was coming, but I saw Guo Jia in civilian clothes to greet him: "General, you are so late." When the penalty is three glasses of wine! ”

Cao Ang dismounted and said with a smile: "Since I came to your Guo Mansion, I didn't plan to go back soberly, go!" Borrow a few water and wine in Brother Fengxiao's mansion to go to the cold. The two walked into the house holding each other, and said as they walked: "Brother Feng Xiao once said that there is a person who may be of great use against Liu Bei, but I don't know who it is?" ”

Guo Jia laughed when he heard this, then looked around for a while, and then said in his ear: "Does the general know about Qin Yilu?" ”
