Chapter VII

In Jufu Building, Cao Shuang picked up Li Jue and washed the dust. At the banquet, the brothers were very happy, and Li Jue's mood for the rest of his life was very different from before.

Looking at the eight friends of Cao Mansion, Cao Shuang's face was full of worry. In the past few years, I have been too sharp with them, which has attracted the attention of some people. Cao Shuang has never had any unhappiness with the Sima family, if Wei Zhen is not too self-protective this time, I am afraid that Cao Shuang will inevitably be involved. Since you have been noticed by others and you are not in your fledgling, the best way is to leave this place of right and wrong.

Cao Shuang picked up the wine lord on the table, and the other eight people all quieted down, and they all raised the wine lord in their hands and looked at Cao Shuang.

"!" A few people drank the wine in the wine, and the room remained quiet after that, and there was no more noise. Two hours later, Cao Shuang and the nine people left Jufu Building, and when they left, everyone's faces were solemn, and they lost the joy they had when they first entered the restaurant.

On this day, the people on the street come and go, picking out the things they need on the stalls on both sides of the street, and there are monkey artists teasing the monkeys, which makes passers-by laugh. A little girl was walking down the street with a freshly picked flower and a bright smile on her face.

Suddenly, not far from the street came the neighing of horses, and from time to time, the sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground. The old lady who sold the eggs pulled her basket of eggs back, and the fruit seller pulled the cart back, and the vendors all over the street were doing the same. A black horse roared towards her, and the little girl was walking in front, and when she heard a voice behind her, she hurriedly turned around, and found that the black horse was a stone's throw away from her, and it was too late to escape.

At this critical moment, I saw the young man on the horse pull the reins fiercely, and the black horse's front hooves jumped high, and its hind legs kicked the ground hard. Several girls had their eyes closed, and they couldn't bear to see the scene of blood splattered on the spot, let alone watch their flower-like lives disappear. The black horse, driven by the boy, jumped over the little girl who was standing there. Seeing this, the knights behind hurriedly grabbed the reins of the horses and stopped them.

The boy on the horse did not dismount to take care of the little girl, but rebuked the little girl one after another. was already frightened, and was reprimanded by several teenagers. Afraid of adding grievances, the little girl cried as soon as she wowed, like a storm. When the little girl's mother heard the news, she stepped forward and took her daughter in her arms, comforted the little girl who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, and then glared at the teenagers on horseback. The surrounding people pointed at the nine teenagers, "This is the famous Cao Mansion Eight Friends, and the boy riding the white horse is Cao Shuang." ”

"I used to think that this Cao Shuang was a young man, but I don't think it's Er'er, and he's just a gentleman." Sun Laoba in the east of the city said in a strange way.

Sun Laoba's companion pulled Sun Laoba and said kindly, "Don't talk nonsense, that's not easy to mess with." ”

This is the fifth time in a few days that Cao Fu Bayou has done this. This time completely angered the people present, and they all accused the eight friends of Caofu, and the officials in the distance did not dare to step forward to dissuade them. The people are excited, and the anger of the people must not be offended. The accusation slowly turned into abuse, the corners of Cao Shuang's mouth rose slightly, and then he was replaced by an angry expression, raised his horsewhip and pointed at the people present, "What are you guys, you dare to accuse this son." Isn't it just a little surprised, this money is enough for you to see a doctor? ”

After speaking, Cao Shuang took out the copper coin and threw it on the ground. The girl's mother glared at Cao Shuang viciously, and said very toughly, "Who cares about your stinky money." ”

Cao Shuang snorted coldly, lifted the reins of the horse and walked away, leaving only Cao Shuang's laughter. Yuan Lie was very helpless, and took his brothers to follow on horseback. If you decide to do so, you have to pay the price.

When you get it right, no one remembers; When you do it wrong, even farting is wrong. In the next few days, Cao Shuang and others were criticized from all walks of life, and even some shops stopped doing their business. Cao Cao's desk was full of chapters about Cao Shuang, some accused Cao Shuang of ignoring the law and discipline too much, some asked to deal with Cao Shuang and Cao's eight friends according to the law, and even faintly pointed the finger at Cao Cao, saying that Cao Cao was too fond of Cao Shuang, which caused today's scene.

Cao Cao rubbed his swollen temples and pounded his sore shoulders, "He said very speechlessly, "How can this kid's temperament suddenly change drastically, and he will make trouble for me!" ”

This matter was soon learned by Cao Zhen, and Cao Zhen took advantage of the day when Xiu Mu returned home and called Cao Shuang to the study.

In the study, Cao Zhen sat behind the bookcase with a straight face, and looked coldly at Cao Shuang, who was standing in the hall and saluting.

Cao Shuang bowed and saluted, but he never got a response from Cao Zhen, so Cao Shuang kept hunching his body. Cao Shuang knew very well why Cao Zhen was so angry, and he willingly bowed his body and accepted Cao Zhen's punishment.

Half an hour passed, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down Cao Shuang's face. Cao Zhen sighed, "Don't you know what's wrong?" ”

"Kid is right, I don't know!" Cao Shuang was still hunched, letting the sweat slide down his face, and the close-fitting clothes on his body were already soaked. But even so, Cao Shuang is still very tough.

Hearing this, Cao Zhen stood up from his seat, pointed at Cao Shuang and scolded loudly, "Nothing wrong?!" When you almost hurt someone in the street, and you say that you are not wrong, do you know what the crime is according to the law? Cao Zhen was really angry, his face was pale, and the green tendons on his neck flared up.

Even in the face of his violent father, Cao Shuang still said without humility or arrogance, "The child knows that the child knows the law very well!" ”

It's okay not to say this, but as soon as he said it, Cao Zhen became even more angry, and picked up the horsewhip that was kneaded into the iron wire and whipped it towards Cao Shuang. The horsewhip whipped on his body, his clothes were instantly torn, and blood appeared on his fair skin. Cao Shuang gritted his teeth to greet the baptism of Cao Zhen's horsewhip, but still didn't say a soft word.

Putting down the horsewhip in his hand, Cao Zhen looked at Cao Shuang, who was still hunched over, his eyes showed distress and reluctance, but there was still anger in his tone, "Is this so, are you still unwilling to admit your mistakes?" ”

"The child did it on purpose, so the child didn't think he was wrong." Cao Shuang's voice was much quieter, just because every time he spoke, he pulled the wound behind him.

Cao Zhen's face improved, and there was a trace of shame in his eyes, but he was afraid that he was wrong to blame his son again.

"A few days ago, Wei Tong's matter was far from being as simple as it seemed. Where did a medicine man get the courage to murder, I am afraid that the black hand behind this is very powerful. Cao Shuang endured the hot pain behind his back and said, "Although it was Wei Tong who died and Li Jue who was framed, I am afraid that they really want to deal with children." ”

"What? Against you? Cao Zhen was very surprised, at this moment he understood that he was wrong about Cao Shuang again, and hurriedly asked Cao Shuang to get up and sit down, and his tone was much gentler, "Sit down quickly and let people come to see your injuries." ”

Cao Shuang smiled and shook his head, "As long as my father is not angry, this little injury is nothing." ”

Seeing that his son is so strong, Cao Zhen is very pleased, this is my Cao Zhen's good son. Then he asked worriedly, "Who wants to deal with you?" What are you doing this for? ”

"The child doesn't know who it is, and the child acts so arrogantly and rudely just to cause dissatisfaction." Cao Shuang said calmly, but the sweat on his face betrayed him, and the wound on his back was too painful. Cao Shuang did not plan to say anything about the involvement of the Sima family in this matter, after all, his father would have to be an official in the same dynasty as Sima Yi in the future.

Cao Zhen's face was full of worry, and he asked worriedly, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Enter the ranks and join the army." Cao Shuang said very firmly, "Leave Xuchang, a place where the wind and clouds are changing." ”

Cao Zhen didn't speak, just nodded in agreement, and then fell into deep thought.

After a stick of incense, Cao Shuang couldn't bear it anymore, and interrupted Cao Zhen's contemplation, "If the father is fine, then the child will retire for the time being!" ”

Cao Zhen was a little ashamed, waved his hand, and signaled that Cao Shuang could leave.
