Throughout the winter, Cao Shuo was busy handling government affairs in Shouchun.

The first snow in Shouchun was later than in previous years.

Snowflakes fell, and the earth was covered with a thin layer of silver.

Sitting in the room with Tang Ji, Cao Shuo sipped hot tea while looking at Tang Ji's slightly bulging lower abdomen and laughing.

"Laughing at what?" Rolling his eyes, Tang Ji said angrily.

"I found myself quite capable." Cao Shuo smiled and said to Tang Ji: "Accidentally, I made the Queen Mother's belly bigger again." ”

"Are you embarrassed?" Tang Ji said angrily: "Last time, Mrs. Lu and I gave birth one after another, what should you do this time?" ”

"What's so hard about it?" Cao Shuo said: "If you should be born, what can you do if the whole world knows?" ”

"Aren't you afraid that people will find out that you have committed a crime?" Tang Ji asked.

"Sooner or later, it's going to be punctured." Cao Shuo said: "It's just that it's pierced too early, and the disadvantages far outweigh the benefits." ”

"When were you supposed to be punctured?" Tang Ji asked.

"When I am strong, no one in this world will dare to provoke me." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "It's a pity, your land is too fertile, I sowed it a little, and it actually has it again." ”

"Then I'll give birth secretly." Tang Ji said: "Anyway, the stable woman from the last time is here, and she will give birth to a child for Zirong, and no one outside will know." ”

"The Queen Mother has suffered." Cao Shuo said: "In the future, I will control that thing and try not to let it harm the Queen Mother again." ”

"You don't do harm, but I feel that something is missing." Tang Ji said leisurely: "Women always want to be hurt by men. ”

Cheaply yelling at Tang Ji, Cao Shuo lowered his voice and asked, "Insert it in and pull it out, it's also love?" ”

Tang Ji replied angrily: "Zirong speaks, and he is always not serious without two or three sentences. ”

"What's not serious?" Cao Shuo said with a smile: "Men and women, there is nothing more serious than this. Breeding, reproduction and future generations, is there anything else that can catch up with this matter? ”

Cao Shuo's words, Tang Ji really didn't know how to refute it.

Before men and women, there really is nothing more important than reproduction and reproduction.

While she was talking, Tang Ji's maid came to the door.

She bowed and said to the two of them: "The queen mother, Gongzi, Fugong returned from Haixi, saying that she had an urgent matter to see Gongzi. ”

"Frustrated?" Cao Shuo asked, "Where is he?" ”

"I'm waiting in Childe's study." The maid replied.

"He's really picky." Cao Shuo said to Tang Ji: "Queen Mother, I'll go see him first, and then I'll accompany you in the evening." ”

"Zirong should accompany the other ladies at night." Tang Ji gently stroked her stomach: "I can't do anything with you like this, won't I delay your spring supper overnight?" ”

"Alright, I'll come back tomorrow during the day." Cao Shuo smiled, got up and walked to the door.

The snow is still falling, and it tends to get heavier and heavier.

When he was about to get to the study, Cao Shuo saw that Fu Zhu was standing under the corridor, as if he was walking back and forth very anxiously.

"Frustrated." Cao Shuo walked over and greeted him.

Seeing Cao Shuo coming, Fu Yu hurriedly saluted: "The son is back." ”

"What's so anxious?" Cao Shuo asked.

"It's not General Guo yet." Frustrated and said: "The left and the son are not there, the right is not the son, and recently I heard that the son is going to accompany Cao Gong to fight against Wuhuan, but he can't sit still, and decided to lead the troops to Beihai to explore the road first." ”

"Pathfinding?" Cao Shuo asked, "How is he going to explore the way?" ”

"Didn't Childe say that he would take him to the North Sea to set up a navy?" "He can't bear it anymore. ”

"To the North Sea in winter?" Cao Shuo said: "He's just messing around. ”

"That's what I said." Fu Zhu said: "But General Guo's temperament, Gongzi also knows. Except for Childe, I'm afraid no one can persuade him. ”

"I have to go to Yecheng in the spring, but now it's the depths of winter, and I can't get out." Cao Shuo said: "I will write him a letter, and you will bring it to Haixi." Let him wait a little longer, and when I come back from Wuhuan, I will take him to Beihai. ”

He then asked Fu Zhu, "Could it be that Guo Zu doesn't refuse to go to Beihai at all?" ”

"Of course not." "General Guo and General Guan still have some correspondence with each other, and General Guan told him about various benefits in the South China Sea. He is not moved, it is a really strange thing. ”

"Guan Cheng said the benefits in the South China Sea?" Cao Shuo asked, "What benefits?" ”

"General Guan said in his letter that he recruited new soldiers, and the local natives were very obedient." "The local government has also given him the greatest support, and the South China Sea Navy has begun to take shape. ”

"I don't get any information about the South China Sea Navy." Cao Shuo said: "Why does General Guo often receive letters from General Guan? ”

"The South China Sea Navy should be developing, but it can't really be that fast." Fu Zhu said: "General Guan will repay Gongzi, of course, after the navy begins to take shape. But when he wrote a letter to General Guo, he was able to show off at will. ”

"It turns out that the festival is here." Cao Shuo smiled slightly: "I'm also thinking that in such a short period of time, it should be impossible for the South China Sea Navy to be too large." ”

"General Guan is really." Frustrated and said: "It's okay to show off anything with General Guo, so that it has reached today's situation." ”

"It's also good for him to show off like this." Cao Shuo said: "Originally, General Guo was still hesitating in his heart, whether he should go to Beihai or not. Seeing General Guan's letter, his hesitation would never be there again. Now I have to convince General Guo to stabilize. ”

"How long does it take for Childe to think it will take to defeat Wu Huan?" Frustrated asked.

"It can be as short as three or five months, or as long as a year." Cao Shuo said: "The Cao family has won Hebei, and it is no longer comparable to the past, and it is not difficult to break through Wuhuan." ”

He then said to Fu Zhu: "General Guo is really idle and boring, I have something to do for him." ”

"Childe is going to ......," asked Frustrated.

"Do you know Samhan?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Of course I do." Fu Zhu said: "It is adjacent to Liaodong, and it has been making trouble with Liaodong all the year round, although it is weak and unbearable, the Sanhan people are very arrogant. ”

"Looks like you know a little bit about it, too." Cao Shuo said: "Although Sanhan has never had a strong capital, the people in that place always think that they are the best in the world. I heard that Zihuan sent someone there, presumably to disadvantage me. ”

"Childe is planning to destroy Samhan?" Frustrated asked.

"Nope." Cao Shuo said: "If that kind of thing really happens, I will send someone to send a letter to Haixi, and General Guo can lead the navy to Sanhan for training." Let them know that there is no good in going against me. It's okay to disgust others, don't show your presence in front of me. ”
