Chapter Seventy-One: The City Commander Cao Chong
Yuan Yun seemed very happy after dealing with the reunion with Cao Pi, and at this time the troops also entered Luoyang City, and all the people and merchants they saw along the way would cheer twice on the asphalt avenue, and they were extremely happy about the triumph of their own army.
This process reached a climax after entering the city gate of Luoyang, where all the shops on both sides of the street were closed, and people rushed to both sides, and then waved their hands at the gunpowder army, and the children ran all the way, and in their eyes this army was their future yearning.
As Luoyang's acting city order, the little Cao Chong also put on a full shelf, and even brought his own family to greet more than 100 guards, until he reached the inner city gate of the south gate, and the hundred officials were lined up on both sides behind him, until Yuan Yun waved his hand, he excitedly urged the horses to follow Yuan Yun's side.
"Your official authority is big enough, these officials in Luoyang seem to be very submissive to you." Yuan Yun chuckled, and then muttered to Cao Chong.
Cao Chong smiled and said, "When my brother-in-law was away, I killed three officials and killed eleven officials with a cane, and they were not afraid that I would have ghosts." ”
Yuan Yun's heart jumped when he heard this, Cao Chong, this little guy was really a decisive person to kill, and he was also sure that these killed people must not have been wronged, but he didn't expect that Cao Chong didn't choose to detain these people, and then wait for him Yuan Yun to come back and convict, so he killed them directly.
At this time, Zhuge Liang on the other side pulled the horse body closer, and then whispered: "Prince Cao Chong is more suitable for being a Luoyang order than the lord." ”
For Zhuge Liang's obvious ridicule, Yuan Yun could only frown, but he didn't know how to refute it, because even he himself thought so, Cao Chong was indeed more suitable than him Yuan Yun in terms of being a Shangguan.
"Brother-in-law, this is a seal letter, and now the thing is returned to its original owner." After Cao Chong whispered a few words to Deng Ai, he rode back to Yuan Yun's side, and then planned to hand over the seal of Luoyang Ling.
Yuan Yun looked at a box with black background and red edges in Cao Chong's hand, and after being silent for a moment, he suddenly smiled: "You don't have to pay me back, you can keep it, I plan to recuperate at home for half a year after I come back this time, and you will still handle the government affairs in Luoyang." ”
Cao Chong was stunned for a moment, and said eagerly: "How can this make it, if the eldest brother comes back and finds out that I am in charge of Luoyang, I'm afraid neither of us will feel good." ”
Yuan Yun was still smiling, and said: "Don't worry, if your eldest brother Cao Ang knows that during his absence, you are in charge of Luoyang and manage it so well, he will definitely be happy, and I can guarantee this." ”
When Cao Chong heard Yuan Yun like this, he hesitated to put the letter into his arms, and in an instant, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Brother-in-law is afraid that my father will be taboo, so he made this arrangement, yes or no?" ”
Yuan Yun heard Cao Chong say this, and couldn't help but sigh again in his heart, this brother-in-law in front of him is really a genius, he can guess so much with just a few words, it is really suitable for him to be this Luoyang Ling.
And just like Cao Chong said, Yuan Yun was worried about Cao Cao's taboo, and he had already sent Cao Pi, and he must have heard that Cao Ang handed over the Luoyang Order and the Tiger Fu to him Yuan Yun, so there was this arrangement, and the Luoyang Order and the Tiger Fu could never be handed over to Cao Pi, so the choice to take a step back was naturally Cao Chong.
After thinking about it, Yuan Yun touched it in his arms, and then handed a copper metal box to Cao Chong, and said in his mouth: "This is the tiger talisman for mobilizing the army, you can put it away, since I have returned triumphantly, then I will naturally hand it over, and you will keep it with peace of mind as the Luoyang Order." ”
After speaking, Yuan Yun suddenly had a joking thought, patted Cao Chong's shoulder and continued: "If you don't like anyone, or have thought about the general's addiction, you can immediately take the army out to ensure that no one dares to stop you, ha." ”
Cao Chong looked at Yuan Yun's face full of bad taste, and immediately rolled his eyes, and then replied: "Brother-in-law, don't laugh, the army can use it like this, I'll just keep these things first, so that my father can rest assured, my brother-in-law is also comfortable, and everyone is fine." ”
At this time, Deng Ai, who was following behind, finally rode up, and after listening to a conversation between the two, he said with some doubts: "Master, Xiao Chong, hand over the tiger talisman or seal letter, isn't this going to be announced on stage, how can you pass it on in private like this?" ”
When Yuan Yun and Cao Chong heard this, they replied in unison: "Trouble! ”
After entering the inner city of Luoyang, Li Li beckoned his subordinates, divided the troops into countless units, and then marched towards the barracks, and the triumphal ceremony was arranged to be held the day after tomorrow, and this time because of the outstanding military exploits, naturally everyone is very satisfied, and they are all looking forward to the rewards that can be obtained on the ceremony the day after tomorrow, about this, Luoyang has never been stingy.
Yuan Yun handed over the tiger talisman, and the army returned to the barracks, he only wanted to go home quickly at this time, but because of various procedures, he had no choice but to continue to go to the mansion with Cao Chong.
Now Yuan Yun is infinitely nostalgic for Jia Xu, if this old man is here, then he will be much easier when he hands over, and he basically knows it very well, so it is very time-saving, but at the moment, it is Cao Chong and a group of officials who don't know where they came from, and it will be very troublesome to hand over.
After the military exploits compiled by the anchor of the general were delivered, Yuan Yun explained to the officials about the itinerary log after this expedition, and then Zhuge Liang had already compiled the Xiliang analysis, and under the leadership of several soldiers, he returned to the barracks again, and then gave a post-war lecture.
was busy until it got dark, but Yuan Yun still couldn't return home, because on the second day, he had to go to the monument carving ceremony for the martyrs who died in battle, as well as a series of pension regulations, which had to be completed before the triumphal ceremony, so it was already foreseeable that even on the second day, he would not be able to go home, and he could only wait until the triumphal ceremony ended the day after tomorrow.
And the most important thing is that others can use excuses not to follow these regulations, but Yuan Yun can't, because these things were formulated by him himself, so at this moment he can only sigh with bad luck.
Looking at the already clear night sky outside the Luoyang Mansion, Yuan Yun leaned on the corridor in the backyard alone, and now Cao Ang went to Yecheng, and all the children in the family also followed, so at present, this mansion has become Cao Chong's territory, and the very beautiful back garden here was originally taken care of by He Yao, but at the moment it is full of all kinds of mechanical appliances, so that all those flowers and plants are crushed to the ground, and I don't know what kind of allergic reaction He Yao will have if he knows.
Seeing Cao Chong with a few craftsmen still busy with lights, Yuan Yun sighed, the so-called genius must have energy beyond ordinary people, it is obvious that Cao Chong is such a person, I heard a few people who are engaged in it, Cao Chong is busy with Luoyang's administration every day, and he pounds these things in the backyard until midnight at night, even so he can get up early every morning to do things.
Not long after, Zhuge Liang also came to the promenade with a feather fan, because he was the military advisor who fought against Xiliang this time, so according to the regulations, he could not return home, and could only stay with Yuan Yun in Luoyang's mansion to report on his work.
After Zhuge Liang sat down, Yuan Yun poured a glass of sake for the other party, and then said with a smile: "These few days will be easier, this time I have to rest for half a year, and my newborn son is estimated to be able to climb." ”
Zhuge Liang saw that Yuan Yun poured out wine, not tea, and couldn't help but be stunned, after all, Yuan Yun is not good at drinking, he still understands it, and now he is drinking here alone, he must be a little tired.
"It's also a good thing for the lord to return home and be quiet for half a year, so that Cao Cheng's taboo against you can be eliminated, this is a very advanced self-preservation skill, and the lord handles it quite well." After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he put down the feather fan and began to taste the fragrance of the cup of sake.
Yuan Yun glanced at the night sky, and said: "My headache-inducing Aunt Bian is coming, even if I hide at home now, there is not much peace to enjoy, what good countermeasures does Kong Ming have?" ”
Zhuge Liang instantly rolled his eyes and said, "At that time, Shu Liang was not interested in participating in your family affairs. ”
Yuan Yun suddenly pouted in displeasure and said, "You are my staff......
"Contract-style staff, I said it before, Liang doesn't do things he doesn't like, has the lord forgotten?" Zhuge Liang didn't wait for Yuan Yun to finish speaking, and had already added.
Yuan Yun became even more angry when he heard this, but he was helpless, after he made an agreement with Zhuge Liang at the beginning, his brain was hot and he made a contract like a later generation, but Zhuge Liang immediately seized the opportunity, so he put forward many conditions, resulting in the relationship between the two becoming a contract that is absolutely not in this era.
"Regarding the matter of providing firearms to Yang Aruo in Hanzhong, Kong Ming really thinks it is impossible?" Yuan Yun had no choice but to change the topic.
Zhuge Liang glanced at Cao Chong, who was still busy with the tractor in the distance, and then chuckled: "I thought it was impossible before, but now I feel some hope." ”
Yuan Yun immediately became interested, and hurriedly asked, "What hope do you have?" ”
Zhuge Liang picked up the feather fan again, and after inciting twice, he pointed to Cao Chong's back and said: "The lord must not give the firearm to Yang Aruo, even if we cover it up cleverly, once Yang Aruo uses it, then it will inevitably be exposed, but it is different if it is handed over to Cao Chong, if it is put to Hanzhong through his hand, then even if Prime Minister Cao Cheng knows, he will not have other ideas, after all, Cao Chong is the child he values the most, and he will give some support to this child's decision." ”
Yuan Yun followed Zhuge Liang's point, also glanced at Cao Chong, suddenly smiled, and said, "Isn't it too insidious for us to use this little guy like this?" ”
This time it was Zhuge Liang's turn to be stunned, and he was puzzled: "Cao Chong's age is not young, many families have married wives at this age, so Cao Chong already has the right to speak, why does the lord still treat him as a child?" What Liang saw and heard today, he felt that the talent of this Cao Chong prince was definitely not lower than that of Cao Ang's son, and let him preside over the provision of firearms to Hanzhong, Liang felt that it was appropriate. ”
Yuan Yun laughed dryly, according to his cognition in his previous life, Cao Chong at this age is still at the age of fighting with others at school, or picking up girls, and in this era, he can jump out to decide the fate of a place, no wonder others say that the ancients were much more precocious.
Stretching his waist slightly, Yuan Yuncai smiled and said: "When this kid is done, I will talk to him well, if Yang A in the Hanzhong realm can get our firearms, the pressure caused by Liu Bei in Yizhou will be greatly reduced, I believe Xiao Chong must be very clear about this." ”
