Chapter Seventy-Two: Bian's Arrival

"Brother-in-law, just providing Yang Aruo with gunpowder ammunition, isn't this too thin, after all, the other party is an army of more than 200,000 in Yizhou." When Cao Chong heard Yuan Yun offer to provide gunpowder ammunition to Yang Aruo in Hanzhong, he was silent for a while, and immediately put forward his own opinions.

Yuan Yun smiled bitterly and said: "The artillery was strictly ordered by your father not to leave Luoyang, even if it was Chang'an, which was guarded by General Zhang Liao, it was your father who personally approved it, and there were dozens of them, so Yang Aruo's side is estimated to be out of play." ”

Cao Chong smiled and said: "Anyway, we are going to cut it first and then play, so if we want to do it, we will simply do it to the end, and transport the artillery to Hanzhong, if Yang A uses these firearms, it must be very difficult, and if this batch of firearms is used to successfully repel Liu Bei, when my father is held accountable, it will be a few boards at most." ”

Yuan Yun was stunned for a moment, and pondered carefully, this batch of firearms was sent to Hanzhong to Yang Aruo, whether it was only sent with gunpowder shells, or even with artillery, don't reveal the matter, it must be Yang Aruo who used these weapons, and Yang Aruo has always been a cautious person, once this batch of weapons is used, it must be a very critical time, if you can turn defeat into victory, then even if Cao Cao asks for guilt, at most it is an order to take back this batch of things.

Patting Cao Chong's shoulder with satisfaction, Yuan Yuncai continued a little apologetically: "I specifically asked you to do this, I guess you already know why, in other words, my brother-in-law used you to block the gun, you won't complain about my brother-in-law, right?" ”

Cao Chong shrugged indifferently and said: "Luoyang is not just my brother-in-law's, to put it deeply, it is all planning for our Cao family, who will stop this shot?" ”

After explaining this, Cao Chong's thoughts turned, and he immediately pointed to the tractor that was already equipped, and then said with a smile: "With Ma Jun's help, my tractor has shrunk several times, and now even if it is used in the mountains, there is enough space, but I have always had a question that I am very curious." ”

Yuan Yun was puzzled: "What questions, just ask." ”

Cao Chong said: "Why do you want to name this thing a tractor, I didn't even think about the name at first, my brother-in-law just glanced at it and immediately blurted it out, as if you had seen it in the past." ”

Yuan Yun chuckled in his heart, and could only make a haha to reveal the matter, even if Cao Chong didn't believe it, but Yuan Yun didn't plan to talk about it at all, the two chatted for a while, and finally ended with Cao Chong's ass being kicked by Yuan Yun.

Two days later, Yuan Yun finally finished all his official duties, and this is the only time he really has nothing to do, but he still feels quite uncomfortable when he remembers the inscription of the fallen soldiers at the monument.

At that time, after the name was carved, an old lady actually rushed to the guards, and when Yuan Yun stepped forward to ask, the old lady only asked: "Is my son still brave in battle?" ”

After Yuan Yun heard this, he knew that the old lady's son must be a member of the Xiliang Battle, so he immediately stood in awe, and bowed deeply before replying: "Be a model for my generation." ”

After hearing this, although the old lady was still full of tears, but at the same time seemed to have some kind of comfort, and left the scene with the support of several relatives, when Yuan Yun asked an old lady's relatives and learned that the old lady's wife died a few years ago, and now her only son is also dead.

Yuan Yun, who got the news, immediately became extremely bad, and it was also at this time that he hated the war even more, and at the re-election ceremony on the second day, when the soldiers were rewarded, they could no longer find the last coach who was rewarded, which made Cao Chong embarrassed for a while.

Yuan Yun, who returned home, was still greeted by the relatives led by the eldest sister, and it was still the ceremony of the whole family's worship clothes, and everyone had no objection to this, Yuan Yun naturally had no superfluous opinions, and after accepting these so-called ceremonies, his first thought was to return to the back house to see his children.

This idea that popped up, even Yuan Yun himself felt very strange, in the past, he always wanted to see his wives and concubines the most, but now he wanted to see his children the most.

On this day, Yuan Yun just stayed with the children, and no one came, even at night, he was on the floor of the study with the children, and the result was that the children were listening to Yuan Yun, the father, all night long, telling the story from the Eight Immortals across the sea to Star Wars, and finally causing the father, son, and daughter to have a dark circle under their eyes when the sun rose on the second day.

After two days of such leisurely days, the Yuan Mansion finally came to a figure that had to be seen, Bian.

When Yuan Yun came to the front hall from the back house dressed neatly, he saw that Bian had sat unceremoniously on the main seat, if he changed to another family, Bian would definitely not be like this, after all, Yuan Yun was also a marquis, and Bian, as a woman, would never grab this position, but after arriving at Yuan's mansion, Bian seemed to have forgotten all about any etiquette, not only sat comfortably on the main seat, but also shouted from time to time, and distributed the types of meals at noon today, which was completely like the style of the head of the house.

After Yuan Yun sat down on the left side, Bian's originally smiling face immediately straightened, and he said coldly: "Pi'er has just arrived in Luoyang, and you will slaughter half of the officials who came with you, is Yuan Hou's courage too big?" ”

Yuan Yun had already made a good plan in his heart, so he calmly replied: "The punishment for officials who violate the law is even more criminal, this is formulated by Prime Minister Cao Cheng, where does the son-in-law dare to disobey?" ”

Bian's brows were still furrowed, and after a long time, he didn't know what he suddenly remembered, and finally sighed and said, "Is there no way to live behind Pi'er?" ”

Yuan Yun was shocked when he heard this, and he didn't understand why Bian made the topic so serious, and when he came up, he talked about Cao Pi's life and death, and the most terrible thing was to ask him Yuan Yun, this kind of question involves too many things, and it is too complicated, and it can't be answered face-to-face at all.

Seeing that Yuan Yun was silent for a long time and didn't answer, Bian Shi finally said with a little pleading: "I only hope that you can spare Pi'er's life, and at most imprison him, you may agree to this request Yuan Yun?" ”

Yuan Yun's face was full of astonishment, so he could only arch his hand and say: "Aunt Bian shouldn't let me answer this question, she should let Cao Ang Shizi answer." ”

Bian Shi smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "I'm afraid Cao Ang won't get the answer I want in this matter, now I just want to ask Yuan Yun you, because if you agree, there will definitely be a way to do it, on the way to come, I heard that Pi'er let the ship block the way of your army, and there was a conflict at the dock, when I heard the news, do you know what I think?" ”

Yuan Yun didn't even dare to raise his head now, because he didn't know what Bian was thinking, and he actually talked about this kind of topic when he met, and he had to hand over a piece of hot potato to himself, which was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.

Seeing that Yuan Yun still didn't speak, Bian Shi could only sigh again: "When I heard that Pi'er was in conflict with you, I was worried in my heart, afraid that Pi would lose the last life-saving talisman, if you offend Yuan Yun again, presumably no one will be able to save him in the future." ”

Yuan Yun shook his head and said, "Aunt Bian is serious, this matter ......"

"Shut up, now Aunt Bian only asks you for one thing, no matter what the situation is in the future, you must save Pi'er's life, can you promise me?" Bian was obviously very anxious, and didn't give Yuan Yun a chance to mix up at all.

Yuan Yun dared to glance at Bian at this time, and found that this old man, who had always been kind, had only been seen for a few years, and there were several more wrinkles in the corners of his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, and finally he could only nod and say: "The little son-in-law is doing his best, so Aunt Bian can rest assured?" ”

When Bian heard Yuan Yun agree, his face immediately improved, and he even exhaled a long breath, and then said gently: "I know that this matter must be very difficult for you, after all, Pi'er has to fight against you everywhere now, but you are his brother-in-law, and you also stayed with him for a while when you were a child, and these friendships still have to be talked about." ”

Yuan Yun was noncommittal, but he didn't feel good in his heart, Cao Pi followed him for a few days when he was a child, so he went to worship Sima Yi as a teacher, where is there any affection, and later he was out of the same nostril with Cao Ren, and he didn't know how much right and wrong he made.

It's just that looking at Bian's appearance right now, he still can't be ruthless in his heart, and he can only cry out in vain for agreeing to this unequal treaty, thinking that there should be many ways to ensure Cao Pi's life, after all, Cao Ang is not a murderer.

After Bian got Yuan Yun's promise, he was obviously in a much better mood, and immediately called the maids around him to go out of the door, and said in his mouth: "I came here this time to bring you a lot of gifts, Aunt Bian will not let you do things in vain." ”

Yuan Yun then smiled bitterly, what can't be bought in Luoyang now, and the things sent by the Bian family are still sold from Luoyang, so there is nothing to look forward to at all, but the old man gives a gift, even if it is not good, you have to accept it happily.

So Yuan Yun bowed his hand again and said with a smile: "The things that Aunt Bian brought thousands of miles away must be good things, and the son-in-law naturally does not dare to refuse." ”

As soon as Yuan Yun's words fell, he saw that the maid who had just gone out actually led a large group of women in, Yuan Yun roughly counted, there were as many as twelve, and each of them was young and beautiful, and they were at most sixteen or seventeen years old.

When Yuan Yun didn't know why, he saw Bian pointing at these women and said with a smile: "These are all to congratulate your father-in-law on his ascension to the king, and the women sent from various families are all daughters of first-class families, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. ”

Yuan Yun's face was full of consternation, these women were okay to say, but after hearing Bian's words 'long stay', the whole person began to be not calm, the first day they met today, they made their buttocks hurt, if they lived for a long time, then he Yuan Yun would not be able to live.

Bian looked at Yuan Yun's expression, his face immediately sank again, and said, "What? Don't you welcome me to stay in Yuanfu for a long time? ”

Yuan Yun hurriedly arched his hand and said, "How could it be? It's just that now that Cao Pi's son is also in Luoyang, don't you live with him? Moreover, there is a good courtyard behind Luoyang College, where the mountains and rivers are good, and there are literati like Zheng Xuan in the ......"

"I don't have to talk about it, I like to live in Yuan's Mansion, I have already heard Zhi'er and Chong'er mention your house, saying that it is more comfortable than Cao's Mansion in Yecheng, and Qinghe'er is also here, why should I go to live in any academy?"

Bian didn't give Yuan Yun any chance to refute at all, and immediately continued after grabbing a sentence: "Anyway, apart from Qinghe'er, what about my other daughter?" ”

Yuan Yun was stunned for a while, and then replied with a blank face: "Another daughter? ”

Bian snorted angrily and said, "Cao Jie's little girl with her arm turned out. ”

Yuan Yun suddenly remembered that Cao Jie had always lived in Luoyang Yuan Mansion, because she had lived for a long time, she had really forgotten her identity, and at this time, she was suddenly mentioned by the Bian family, and she really didn't think about it for a while.

Smiling awkwardly, Yuan Yuncai arched his hand and said, "I should have heard the news of your arrival, and I guess I am rushing here." ”

Bian nodded with satisfaction and said: "This is very good, this time I came, and I was also ordered by your Prime Minister Cao Cheng to escort this little girl back to Yecheng, and the minister Chen Qun has already proposed to marry Cao Jie to the emperor of the Han family, so Prime Minister Cao Cheng asked me to bring these beauties over, that is, to exchange Cao Jie with you, the lawless Yuan Hou." ”
