Zhongshan has recently started to become lively, not only on the surface, but also secretly lively.

For example, many clans have begun to suppress the Chen family in a targeted manner, which makes the Chen family, who has always been arrogant, suddenly begin to feel threatened.

To say that Cao Chong caught his eldest son Chen Xiao, Chen only felt a headache, but there was also a way to deal with it, the big deal was to sacrifice this son, anyway, Chen had many sons, and these sons also wished that their eldest brother would be killed by Cao Chong, so Chen Xiao's arrest did not make Chen feel the end of the world.

But now the situation in Zhongshan is completely different, because many things that were smooth before are now difficult to move an inch, and the fruits and vegetables monopolized by the Chen family have been sold at sky-high prices, and now they are almost half sold and half given away and no one cares.

Then an even greater disaster came, the county government of Zhongshan began to ask for guilt, and officials continued to come down to check Chen's account books, and even visited the vicinity of Chen's house, which made the head of the family Chen Li very nervous, so he quickly asked people to go to Yecheng to deliver letters, hoping that Chen Qun could help.

Chen Qun did not disappoint the head of the Chen family, and immediately started to get busy in Yecheng, and he was very smart not to go directly to Cao Cao's side, but chose Cao Chong's mother, Mrs. Huan.

So every day a large number of goods are sent into Cao's mansion, which makes Mrs. Huan very puzzled, she has always been timid her only choice is to refuse, she is very afraid that because of her greed to affect her precious son, after all, after her son followed Yuan Yun, he began to show his prominence, and now he has stood out and become one of Cao Cao's favorite sons.

Chen Qun is cunning, the reason why she sent money and goods to Mrs. Huan is just a gesture, he knows very well that Mrs. Huan will not dare to accept it, this kind of practice naturally cannot escape Cao Cao's discovery, and Zhongshan Chen saw that he wanted to give gifts, of course, it was a big package, and in the end, these goods naturally fell into Chen Qun's hands.

A few days after this, Cao Cao began to ask Chen Qun about why he wanted to give a gift to Mrs. Huan.

Chen Qun took the opportunity to immediately explain that Cao Chong was collided with by Chen's eldest son, but it was intentionally or unintentionally insinuated that after Cao Chong followed Yuan Yun out, he became lawless, so he bullied the honest Chen Xiao.

Cao Cao was very concerned about Cao Chong, so he was also very strict, and his first reaction after hearing this was to send someone to escort Cao Chong back.

Just when Chen Qun was proud of his clever plan, he found that before he left Cao Cao's study, those who were sent out by Cao Cao turned back.

Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked directly: "It's only been half an hour since you went out, why did you turn back, if you can't say why, you should know the rules of the old man." ”

The guard who was the leader immediately knelt down on one knee and said: "Lord Qiqi, the little ones just went out of the west gate, and they saw Cao Chong Gongzi and his party, and they have been welcomed back to the mansion by the little ones at this moment. ”

Cao Cao was stunned, and immediately waved his hand to invite Cao Chong, his eyes lit up in an instant, and he asked the guard who was about to go out, "Can Yuan Hou come here?" ”

The guard immediately stopped, and then replied: "Yuan Hou is still in the Zhongshan Zhen clan now, and only Cao Chong Gongzi has returned. ”

Cao Cao nodded and didn't say anything, but indifferently began to flip through the documents on the desktop, and began to ask Chen Qun about the mobilization of grain and grass around Yecheng.

Chen Qun was a little panicked in his heart, and he replied to Cao Cao with a match in his mouth, but he kept thinking about why Cao Chong returned at this time, was it too much of a coincidence?

Just when Chen Qun was suspicious, Cao Chong had already jumped into the study, and after seeing Cao Cao, he quickly saluted to the ground, and then smiled and began to call Dad, which instantly made Cao Cao's old face bloom a chrysanthemum.

But soon Cao Cao coughed, and then asked with a straight face: "Chong'er is going to Zhongshan, but the majesty is tight, did he do something ridiculous?" ”

Cao Chong patted his chest very proudly, and replied loudly: "Back to Daddy, the Cao family naturally needs to be majestic when they go out, this time Chong'er went to Zhongshan, but he helped the Cao family remove a big harm." ”

Cao Cao was stunned when he heard this, and asked suspiciously, "How do you say this?" ”

Before Cao Chong could answer, he saw Chen Qun hurriedly interject: "Cao Chong's little son is still young and can't tell right from wrong, maybe he thinks he is doing the right thing and can't say it for sure, why is the lord so entangled?" ”

After Chen Qun finished speaking, his heart was beating, if he told Cao Chong all the things about Zhongshan, then the Chen family would probably be saved, he Chen Qun had inquired before, those notices full of Chen family's crimes, he had also read them once, some things he still instructed the other party to do, if these were revealed, no one would have a good life.

When Cao Cao heard Chen Qun say this, he felt that it was indeed a bit nonsense to talk so seriously with his son, who was less than ten years old, so he prepared to send Cao Chong back to the back house first, after all, Mrs. Huan had been thinking about her son for a long time.

Just when Cao Cao was about to let Cao Chong flash people, this villain suddenly took a step forward, and then sat next to Cao Cao, still close to him, completely like a son selling cuteness to his father, and now Cao Cao's words of preparing to drive people away can no longer be said.

Cao Chong saw that his father Cao Cao quieted down, so he immediately said: "The great harm that Chong'er has removed from Zhongshan Chong'er, but the evidence is conclusive, and nothing has been wronged. ”

Cao Cao was instantly interested when he heard this, if Cao Chong was still young, but Cao Zhuang had always been steady, then the results of this investigation were eighty percent credible, so that Zhongshan Chen would have a big problem.

After thinking about it, Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, and then asked, "Although Chong'er is here, my father is here to listen carefully to you." ”

When Chen Qun heard Cao Cao say this, he chuckled in his heart, and was about to interrupt again, but saw that Cao Chong had already left Cao Cao's side, and then pointed at him and said: "Since Mr. Changwen is here, it is very good, Zhongshan Chen is your distant relative, the reason why they dare to behave so much nonsense in Zhongshan, have you always memorized books for them to support their waists?" ”

Chen Qun's face was shocked, Cao Chong was obviously complaining, or reporting in front of him, but the other party said ambiguously, and he really didn't know how to deal with the answer.

Seeing that Chen Qun didn't speak, Cao Chong immediately smiled mysteriously and said, "Since Mr. Changwen doesn't explain, does that mean acquiescence?" ”

Chen Qun was taken aback again, this time he didn't hesitate any longer, and hurriedly explained: "The old man has always been accompanying the lord in Yecheng, where can I have the time and opportunity to take care of the Chen family in Zhongshan." ”

Cao Chong laughed and said, "So Mr. Changwen is admitting that the Chen family is your distant relative?" ”

Chen Qun immediately shook his hand and said: "These old men can't figure it out, after all, there are too many people in the Chen family, who jumps out and has something to do with the old man, the old man is really hard to say." ”

Cao Chong nodded, and said: "But the Chen family has always said that there are people in their court, and they also named and said that you are old, and now we will all treat you as a distant relative of the Chen family." ”

Chen Qun was almost choked to death by this sentence, but the other party was too young, and it was impossible for him to argue with the other party now, so he had no choice but to swallow this hard bone in a reluctant manner, but he was also uncomfortable.

Cao Chong saw that Chen Qun was still silent, so he didn't pay attention to it anymore, but asked Cao Cao: "Daddy, before Chong'er came back, he also arrested Chen Xiao, the eldest son of their Chen family, who intended to assassinate me, and finally missed and was capture......d."

When Chen Qun heard this, he finally felt that he had seized the opportunity, so he immediately interjected: "Don't slander Gongzi Cao like this, then Chen Xiao, the eldest son of the Chen family, is not a fool, how could he openly assassinate the son of the Cao family, does he really think that his head is too much?" ”

Cao Chong smiled and said: "I have checked this matter, he really thinks that he has a lot of heads, that day I feasted on the surrounding clans in the Zhen Mansion, and the pomp was quite big, but this Chen Xiao gathered one hundred and eighty people to prepare to besiege the Zhen Mansion, isn't this still planning to assassinate?"

However, since Mr. Changwen interceded for that Chen Xiao, this matter should not be assassinated for the time being, but later I locked him in prison, but he kept saying that he wanted to see your old man, which is very strange, could it be that he planned to assassinate me, and Mr. Changwen also had something to do with it? ”

Chen Qun was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, obviously he just said that it was not an assassination, but he turned around and said that he was involved in the assassination, this Cao Chong is simply not reliable at all, but he is the most beloved son of the lord Cao Cao, he can't beat or scold, so he can only grit his teeth and endure it.

Cao Cao had already seen that Cao Chong was always targeting Chen Qun at this time, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, it stands to reason that a child who is less than ten years old cannot have any conflict of interest with an important minister like Chen Qun, so where will there be any contradictions.

Thinking like this, Cao Cao immediately thought of Yuan Yun, but seeing that Cao Chong was speaking on his own, he didn't want to be reciting at all, so it was impossible for Yuan Yun to teach behind his back, and now Zhongshan's Chen family had to be a little intriguing.

"Chong'er just said that you have evidence of Chen's harm, are you ready?" Cao Cao finally got to the point.

Cao Chong immediately nodded and said, "Naturally, there is, and the local government in Zhongshan has also investigated, and most of them have been confirmed." ”

After speaking, Cao Chong took a step forward, and instantly took out a long piece of silk from his arms, which was densely filled with words, and the handwriting of all kinds of people was there, and at a glance, he knew that it was a joint thing signed by many people.

Chen Qun watched Cao Chong take out the Chen family's guilt, and sighed in his heart, it seems that the Chen family in Zhongshan will definitely not be able to keep it, and the other party is not guilty of several classes, but so many local clans are resistant to them, Cao Cao will inevitably use the knife against them after weighing the pros and cons, because for Cao Cao, it is important to keep the support of more people, and whether the Chen family is guilty or not is not within the scope of consideration at all.

Cao Cao picked up the scroll of silk and read it for a while, his brows became tighter and tighter, and Chen Qun on the side was tense all over, now he was not thinking about how to help the Chen family get rid of their crimes, but how to take himself out, so as not to be unlucky with the Chen family, that is the most terrible.

Just when Chen Qun's brain was about to sweat, he heard Cao Chong on the side laugh and said: "Daddy, in fact, most of these crimes are unwarranted, and you must not believe all of them." ”
