Chapter 65: Jin Cao
Sima Yi likes such rainy days, the drizzle is sticky, some of them are starting to get cooler, and when the rain is over, the winter days will also enter people's lives. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sima Yi likes rain in any season, whether it is heavy rain or light rain, as long as raindrops start to fall from the sky, he will inexplicably become in a good mood.
His father was too serious, and his observance of the rules was almost outrageous, so Sima Yi's favorite when he was a child was his main father Sima Jun, an amiable fat old man.
But this old man passed away when Sima Yi was ten years old, and it was also from that day that Sima Yi's life was not easy, according to the practice of the Sima family, in addition to studying, he also needed to take care of an acre of farming.
The ten-year-old child takes care of an acre of land, and his father Sima Fang's arrangement is simply a bit sick.
It was very difficult to live in this way while studying and farming, so from then on, Sima Yi was very fond of rain, because in such weather, he only needed to read.
The rain in Xudu has been falling for three days, and Sima Yi hopes in his heart that it can last for some more time, but he also knows very well that if it continues like this, the autumn harvest will be affected, and I believe that no one wants to do this.
On the opposite side of the small table on the terrace sat Cao Chun, his face was a little anxious at the moment, but after all, he endured it, and then sat there patiently, without saying a word, just watching Sima Yi toss all kinds of inexplicable tea sets.
Cao Ren generously rewarded Sima Yi for this entire courtyard, and also equipped him with the most beautiful maids and the most diligent servants, and the material supply was extremely rich.
A pot of boiling water rushed down, and a few wisps of green tea leaves in the clay pot began to tumble, Sima Yi skillfully cleaned the small teacups one by one, and then picked up the charcoal fire again, and began to boil the water again, the look of anticipation in his eyes was unconcealed.
When the second cup of tea was ready, Sima Yi raised his hand and motioned for Cao Chun to drink.
Cao Chun was originally a little irritable, but after watching Sima Yi repeatedly operate these tea-making actions, he felt a little peaceful, and when he smelled the fragrance rising from the small teacup, he was completely quiet.
Sima Yi looked at Cao Chun's changes, and suddenly smiled and said: "General Cao Chun seems to have finally calmed down, good things, calm mind will come true, calm conversation is much more efficient than impulsive." ”
Cao Chun nodded, a little resistant to the bitterness that entered his mouth, but in an instant, from his throat to his nostrils, there was a fragrance like bamboo leaves, which made people feel refreshed and refreshed.
Cao Chun looked at the small teacup he was still holding in his hand in surprise, and suddenly smiled bitterly, and said: "It seems that many things, if you don't try it yourself, you will miss a lot of beauty, this tea is bitter first and then sweet, the aftertaste is endless, Sima Yi Gongzi has good skills." ”
Sima Yi shook his head and smiled, and said: "This ability was not created by me Sima Yi, but from the hands of Yuan Yun and Yuan Hou, the children of the fairy family naturally have the immortal family's tea making method, and this wonderful feeling is not only the taste, the whole process of brewing tea, but also the hidden meaning, if you think about it carefully, it is really broad and profound, even if you are poor all your life, you will not feel bored, and the avenue is also." ”
Cao Chun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "This Yuan Yun is really powerful, my eldest brother Cao Ren still doubts the identity of his immortal disciple, but when I picked up Cao Ang's son in Nanyang, I saw their master and apprentice with my own eyes, Zuo Ci gives people a bad feeling, but the fairy wind Dao bone does have it." ”
Sima Yi shook his hand slightly, and said: "I never doubt Yuan Yun's identity, if it weren't for the children of the immortal family, how could he make so many magical things, this way of brewing tea seems to be the leisure and pleasure of their immortal family on weekdays, even then it is so profound, not to mention the gunpowder techniques that Yuan Yun obtained, as well as those experimental fields with terrifying yields per mu, which of these things can be possessed in the world?" ”
Cao Chun nodded, he had investigated all of these, and indeed as Sima Yi said, everything was terrible, thinking of this, he was a little hesitant, if such a person was defeated, it might be beneficial to his own family, but for the entire Cao family, it was likely to be a disaster.
Sima Yi looked at Cao Chun's expression and sighed in his heart, how could he not think that if Yuan Yun was defeated, it might be a big loss for the world, but even so, Yuan Yun still had to be eliminated, which had basically become Sima Yi's long-cherished wish.
"General Cao Chun doesn't have to worry, even if we defeat Yuan Yun, we just want to defeat the power controlled by him and Cao Ang, it's better not to kill Yuan Yun himself, he really has too many secrets, each of which is great knowledge for the benefit of the country and the people, and killing it with a knife is a tyrannical thing."
After Sima Yi finished speaking, Cao Chun immediately nodded in agreement, and then continued: "If you want to attack Yuan Yun, it seems that only Dong Bi's idiot will rush ahead, it will definitely not work, I wonder if Sima Gongzi has any other good strategies?" ”
Sima Yi casually filled the empty teacup with new tea, and then said with a smile: "We all know what happened to Dong Bi, even if we add Wu Shuo and Chongji, it is not enough for Yuan Yun to stew, so if you want to fight Yuan Yun and Cao Ang in Xudu, I'm afraid it won't be so easy." ”
Cao Chun didn't pay attention to the teacup, but said eagerly: "Do you want to attack their new city?" ”
Sima Yi smiled and said: "If you want to attack Xincheng, you have to start from all aspects, now the mines in Xuzhou are the first to bear the brunt, General Cao Ren has begun to divide the side, rely on us to support, disobedient will suppress, these have already begun to do before the end of Guandu, General Cao Chun just needs to sit and watch a good show." ”
Cao Chun was a little embarrassed and continued: "We also sent people to operate the mines over there before, but they all closed down after opening two of them, how can we get benefits if we go again now?" ”
Sima Yi seemed to be in a good mood today, so he patiently explained: "When we set up the Xuzhou mine, Yuan Yun's mines were basically formed, and Liu Bei gave him great convenience when he occupied it, and now it is a joke to compete with Yuan Yun."
So it's better to change the method, that is, to support the locals in the mine, plus the Chen Deng family, I believe that it is only a matter of time before Yuan Yun is driven out of Xuzhou. ”
Cao Chun snorted, although Sima Yi said these plans are extremely simple, there must be a lot of details, I don't want a young man like Sima Yi to have such ability, and Cao Pi has such a teacher, which is really exciting.
A muffled thunder sounded, the drizzle suddenly became heavier, and the courtyard under the terrace began to blur, Cao Chun seemed to let go of his mind at this time, and finally could taste tea carefully, he found that he really liked this taste.
Ahh
Yuan Yun sneezed fiercely, and then wiped his nose casually, as if he was enjoying this comfort.
Cao Cao frowned and finished reading Yuan Yun's set of actions, and said angrily: "Evil deeds, I don't know how to cover your cuffs, how did Wen Ji teach you etiquette?" ”
Yuan Yun smiled and said, "It's all this weather, don't blame Cao Sikong." ”
Cao Cao's brows were still furrowed, and he knocked his index finger on the table in his study and said, "Didn't you just get hit the board?" Why are you still so vigorous, are those subordinates who took your money and then let you go? ”
Yuan Yun was shocked, if he admitted it, it was estimated that a large part of the back house of Cao's Mansion would die, so he quickly touched his butt and said: "It hurts, it hurts, it's just that in front of Cao Sikong, the kid doesn't dare to do evil." ”
Cao Cao snorted heavily, and suddenly changed the subject and asked: "There is a subordinate in Dong Cheng's mansion, because of his fornication with Dong Cheng's concubine, he was tied up and ready to kill his head, he fled to the old man in the middle of the night, and told him that Dong Cheng was planning to murder the old man, do you think this matter is reliable?" ”
This informant must be Qin Qingtong, it seems that Li Li has already launched it, and the effect is not bad, but Cao Cao asked himself about this, it doesn't seem to be appropriate, right?
Pretending to be confused, Yuan Yuncai replied: "The kid has been recuperating at home recently, and Cao Sikong seems to have asked the wrong person about this matter." ”
Syllable! A slap to the back of the head, the hit is unusually accurate.
After the beating, Cao Cao said with a smile: "Dong Chengjia's affairs, you know better than the old man, don't pretend here, hurry up and say, did you make this happen?" This Qin Qingtong is as timid as a mouse, and he doesn't dare to seduce Dong Cheng's concubine even if he is brave, if no one pushes behind him, the ghost will believe it. ”
"Then you can't just say that I did it, boy."
Syllable! The back of the head again.
Yuan Yun hugged the back of his head and suddenly figured it out, damn, it was Shi Shen who asked Li Li to do this, Shi Shen knew that Xiao Liu must know, and Xiao Liu knew where Cao Cao might not know.
Sighing secretly, Yuan Yun arched his hand and said: "The matter was promoted by the kid, but Dong Cheng was not wronged, I believe that Cao Sikong has already obtained the edict of the cloth, right?" ”
Cao Cao's eyes instantly narrowed again, and he asked coldly: "The old man is not surprised that you have arranged the internal response of Dong Cheng's family, the old man is strange how did you know about the edict?" ”
Yuan Yun was shocked in his heart, and scolded himself for being confused, but what he was in front of him was Cao Cao, if he treated him as an old man, it was estimated that he would be tied to the pillar of fire and burned.
Cautiously arching his hand again, Yuan Yuncai explained: "When Liu Bei was abducted to Xuzhou, he revealed his tone to me in order to show his closeness, and that's how I know, boy." ”
Cao Cao believed it, so he then asked, "Then after you come back, why don't you report directly to the old man?" ”
Yuan Yun smiled bitterly: "Because of the boy, I have a holiday with Dong Bi, even if I say it, your old man will probably only think that it is the boy I want to use an excuse to retaliate." ”
Cao Cao snorted, nodded and said: "Even if you still have a little filial piety, you know that others are not good for the old man, so if you start in advance, this matter will not be pursued with you, but the old man has a doubt in his heart, and he needs an explanation from you, a little bastard." ”
Yuan Yun hurriedly continued: "Although Cao Sikong asked, I have nothing to hide, boy. ”
Cao Cao nodded again and said, "From the first time you entered the court, the old man found that you didn't seem to have any respect for the Son of Heaven, why is this?" ”
Ha, Cao Cao is going to force himself to stand in line, and he has to thoroughly figure out whether he Yuan Yun is loyal to the Han family or their Cao family, which is an essential difference.
After thinking about it, Yuan Yun hugged his fists very cautiously and said: "The kid travels with the master all the year round, and the food is provided by the master, but he has never taken a penny from the imperial court, and the master and his old man are only attentive to the people, as for the high Son of Heaven, he is a little thinner, after all, he can't see it, so the kid is also like the master, whoever can make the people live well is a good person." ”
Cao Cao finally showed a smile on his face, patted Yuan Yun's shoulder across the desk in front of him, and then said with a smile: "From tomorrow onwards, you will be the Jin Cao of Xincheng, and I will have someone send the appointment and seal ribbon to your house in a while, now hurry up." ”
Yuan Yun was stunned, but he still saluted respectfully, and then got out of the way, and when he arrived at the door, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, Jin Cao This is a good official position, in charge of currency, salt and iron affairs, this is a great power, and the most important thing is that this is a civilian job that does not need to go to the battlefield.
Today is really a comfortable day, first beat Dong Bi fatly, and now he has a rich official position, it is really a mess of good luck.
"Celebrate, must celebrate! Shi Shen, Xiaoliu, let's go home and have a banquet now. Yuan Yun screamed and got on the frame, Shi Shen and Xiao Liu were also full of joy, there are not too many things like banquets.
