Cao Shuo asked if he wanted to lead troops, and Cao Cao said: "You don't need to lead troops to conquer Wuhuan, just follow me." ”

"I see." Cao Shuo responded.

He then said to Cao Cao: "Until then, I want to return to Shouchun and take care of some important matters. ”

"It's all your business all day." Cao Cao said: "Well, now that it is winter, the army cannot go out yet, so it is also appropriate for you to go back and deal with things." In the spring of next year, it would be good to go to Yecheng early. ”

Cao Shuo responded, and Cao Cao said: "I haven't seen your mother for many days, but she misses you very much, and I don't need you to take care of anything here, go see your mother." ”

"The child is gone." Cao Shuo bowed and retreated.

When Cao Shuo withdrew, Xun Yu said to Cao Cao: "Cao Gong took the eldest son to crusade against Wu Huan, I'm afraid it will be ...... to do this."

"He's my son, can't I take him out to fight?" Cao Cao interrupted him.

"Not really." Xun Yu said: "The eldest son has always treated Cao Gong respectfully, I just think that Cao Gong seems to be deliberately estranged from him recently. ”

"His power is too great, and he has such power at a young age, do you think it's a good thing?" Looking around at everyone, Cao Cao asked.

None of the staff present stopped talking.

Xiahoudun said: "It's not appropriate for Cao Gong to say this, the eldest son has accumulated a family business with his own skills in the past few years. And whenever Cao Gong was deployed, he would lead the army to come. The stronger the strength of the eldest son, the better it will be for Cao Gong. ”

"When he is strong enough to suppress me, I should give up the Cao family to him." Cao Cao said coldly.

And the people were silent.

Cao Cao's approach in this matter, many people are opposed.

However, he insisted on doing so, and there was no way for his staff and generals to do so.

"I don't think the eldest son will ......" After a while, Cao Ren hesitated and said: "Actually, the strength of the eldest son is not bad now......"

"Who can guarantee that he won't?" Cao Cao asked, "Zixiao, can you?" ”

Of course, Cao Ren didn't dare to say that he could guarantee it.

No one dared to say anything anymore, Cao Cao said: "You all disperse, take advantage of the winter to raise more grain and grass, and in the beginning of spring, the army will crusade against Wuhuan." ”

Leaving the front hall, Cao Shuo went to Ding Yao's residence.

He had come to Yecheng, and this mansion still belonged to the Yuan family at that time.

Ding Yao, as the head of the Cao family's back house, should live in the original residence of Mrs. Liu.

When Cao Shuo arrived, the personal maid saw that it was him, and shouted ecstatically: "Madam, the son is back!" ”

was in the house, and heard that Cao Shuo was back, Ding Yao hurriedly ran out.

There was also a lady who followed Ding Yao out.

This lady is more than ten years younger than Ding Yao, and her skin is better than snow and beautiful.

accompanied Ding Yao to Cao Shuo, and she owed a salute.

Ding Yao stepped forward to take Cao Shuo's hand, looked him from head to toe, and said with a smile on his face: "It's taller again, and it's stronger than before." ”

"Mother, Mrs. Ring." Cao Shuo greeted the two ladies.

Accompanying Ding Yao out was Cao Chong's mother, Mrs. Huan.

Since Cao Cao praised Cao Chong, Mrs. Huan felt uneasy every day, especially recently Cao Cao praised Cao Chong more and more frequently, she became even more restless, and often came to Ding Yao to talk to her, indicating that Cao Chong did not covet the Cao family.

Mrs. Huan is kind and very timid, Ding Yao still knows her.

She knew very well that Mrs. Huan was worried that Cao Shuo would attack Cao Chong, so she would not say anything in front of Mrs. Huan.

Ding Yao had no ill will towards Cao Chong, and Mrs. Huan was a lot more relieved, and she came more and more frequently.

Accompanying Ding Yao to see Cao Shuo, Mrs. Huan said, "When the eldest son comes back, I won't bother here." ”

"Why is Mrs. Huan leaving?" Ding Yao said: "Since Zirong is back, you should stay." ”

was about to retire, but when Ding Yao said this, Mrs. Huan was really hard to leave.

She asked Ding Yao, "What other teachings does Madame have?" ”

"Where do I have any teachings?" Ding Yao said: "It's just that Zirong is back, so let him also listen to what you said to me during this time." ”

"If the eldest lady allows it, I will ask someone to bring Chong'er." Mrs. Huan said: "Let him follow the eldest son to Shouchun, and he doesn't have to return to Yecheng in the future, just stay with the eldest son, and he can learn more skills." ”

"If my father knew Mrs. Huan's plan, I'm afraid he wouldn't have agreed." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "But Mrs. Huan can call Cao Chong, I haven't seen him for a long time, I want to see how this younger brother who knows how to weigh an elephant is doing now." ”

Cao Shuo mentioned Cao Chong's claim to the elephant, and Mrs. Huan hurriedly said: "How can you handle the child's method." The eldest son, don't take it too seriously. ”

"I don't take it to heart, I'm afraid someone will." Cao Shuo said: "He followed me to Shouchun, which is indeed a way to save his life." ”

Mrs. Huan was stunned and asked, "What does the eldest son mean by this......"

"Of course I wouldn't do anything to my brothers, especially a kid like Cao Chong." Cao Shuo said: "I can't guarantee others. ”

"When the eldest son said this, I seem to understand." Mrs. Huan said: "I'll let Chong'er come over, and I'll go to see my husband later, and I'm sure he will allow Chong'er to go to Shouchun." ”

"Mrs. Huan is not worried about Shouchun, I am not good to Cao Chong?" Cao Shuo asked with a smile.

"The eldest son is a generous person, and of course he will not be harsh on his brothers." Mrs. Huan said: "I also heard that Gongzi Zhang is doing very well in Shouchun, not only is he well taken care of, but even his martial arts are much stronger than before. ”

"That's Cao Zhang's own efforts." Cao Shuo replied with a smile: "Please also ask Mrs. Huan to bring Cao Chong here." ”

Mrs. Huan originally planned to let the maid invite Cao Chong.

After listening to Cao Shuo's words, she decided that it was better to go by herself.

He bowed to Ding Yao, and Mrs. Huan said, "Big lady, I'll retire first, and I'll take Chong'er to bother me later." ”

"Go ahead." Ding Yao smiled slightly and said to her.

Mrs. Huan said goodbye and left, and Ding Yao said to Cao Shuo: "Mrs. Huan is really cautious, your father praised Cao Chong a few more words, and she often came to me, for fear that we would have a problem with her." ”

"I wouldn't be impulsive and murderous to Cao, but Zihuan may not." Cao Shuo said: "Now Zihuan also has some power, but his wings are not yet full, so he doesn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary." ”

"I really don't understand why your father did this." Ding Yao said: "The Bian family's slut is there, what good children can he give birth to?" ”

"Mother can't say that." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "Cao Zhang is not bad, now follow me and drive him back to Yecheng, but he still refuses." ”
