Cao Shuo led the army out of the barracks.

After walking for less than an hour, the eastern sky was the color of a fish's belly.

More than 100,000 captives walked in the ranks, one by one with their heads bowed, honestly like puppets tied to a thread.

On the banks of the Yellow River, what Cao Shuo did for them, everyone saw in their eyes.

In order to save them, the son of the Cao family did not hesitate to let Guo Jia be tied up.

No matter how stupid Yuan Jun is, he knows how much trouble he will cause by doing so.

Not to mention messing with Cao Jun, everyone hates to be as well-behaved as a rabbit.

Riding a horse at the front of the team, Cao Shuo suddenly said: "Why do I always feel that something is wrong this time." ”

"What does Childe think is wrong?" Sima Yi asked.

"Man, I got it." Cao Shuo said: "But I don't think it will be so easy to pass this time, Guo Fengxiao said before that he will go to Huainan in a few days." ”

"Guo Fengxiao is going to Huainan?" Sima Yi asked.

"Yes!" Cao Shuo said: "He said that he had to go to Huainan and give me some punishment. ”

Turning his head to look at Sima Yi and Xu Shu, Cao Shuo asked, "What punishment do you think my father will give me?" A beating? Or a year and a half of house arrest? ”

"House arrest?" Xu Shu said with a smile: "Gongzi wants to be placed under house arrest, but I'm afraid that Cao Gong won't." ”

"Do you want to beat me half to death?" Cao Shuo smacked his mouth twice: "It seems that I have to suffer this meat and skin suffering." ”

"Probably not." Sima Yi said: "The world is stable, and the son has a heavy army, so Cao Gong is reluctant to hurt you." ”

"I also don't understand how my father will punish me." Cao Shuo frowned: "It's because I can't figure it out, so I don't feel very stable in my heart." ”

"I'm afraid Childe is going to break the fortune this time." Sima Yi said: "At least it will make Gongzi's flesh hurt." ”

"Broken money? Still painful? Cao Shuo was stunned: "If that's the case, my father might as well give me a beating." ”

"Zhong Da and I have already said just now, Cao Gong will not hurt Gongzi when he comes, and it is impossible to put Gongzi under house arrest." Xu Shu said: "Breaking the wealth is the only way. ”

Cao Shuo's head was suddenly full of black lines: "You can ask me for anything, but don't ask me for money." I have to feed so many people, and I have to make weapons and war equipment, and buy military rations, and if I have less money, people will not help me. ”

"Cao Gong probably knows what Gongzi is most worried about." Sima Yi smiled: "The more worried the child, the more Cao Gong may want to use this method to punish the child." ”

"But Guo Fengxiao has already told his father, and his father has agreed." Cao Shuo said: "It's just for show, how can my father be like this? ”

"Gong Cao knows that Gongzi is rich, and he has always wanted to get more money from Gongzi to raise the army." Sima Yi said: "Previously, Gongzi was approved by Cao Gong, and the benefits obtained by touching the gold camp in three or two years were not given to Cao Gong at all. Childe can think about it, although Cao Gong agreed, what would he think in his heart? ”

"It's over, it's over!" Cao Shuo slapped his forehead: "When you say this, I also think it's like that." In case my father wants me to give him some of the benefits of Lingyun Pavilion, it is better to give him all the benefits obtained by the Golden Camp in two or three years. After all, I can make them thunder and rain a little, just spend there grinding foreign workers. Lingyun Pavilion can't afford to delay a day! ”

Xu Shu and Sima Yi glanced at each other, and both of them smiled.

"Don't laugh like that, you two." Cao Shuo said depressedly: "You two laugh, I think that's it......"

"Childe, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not." Xu Shu said.

"Yuanzhi, please speak." Cao Shuo hurriedly said: "If there is a way to prevent me from breaking the bank, it will work!" ”

"Actually, Childe is not a miser." Xu Shu said: "It's only because I consider that the army and the local government need money that it hurts like this." Anyway, you can't dodge, it's better to face it calmly. It wouldn't be a bad thing if you could get a fortune out and avoid disaster. ”

"Actually, I'm really a miser." Cao Shuo said: "It's okay to want my life, but you want my money...... Not really! ”

"It's really hard to help Childe this time." Xu Shu said: "Gongzi has gained more than 100,000 strong, if you keep the money again, Cao Gong will not spare you." ”

Cao Shuo had a bitter expression on his face, and said to Xu Shu and Sima Yi: "You have to think of ideas, how can you let me make less money." ”

"I'm afraid there's no way." Xu Shu said: "Childe will admit it this time." ”

Looking back at the more than 100,000 captives, Cao Shuo said depressedly: "This time my father seized the opportunity, I am afraid that he will open his mouth and give me a handful of blood......"

Cao Shuo and the others guessed what kind of punishment they would receive, and Guo Jia and Xun You were in Cao Cao's tent at this time.

"It was a lot of trouble last night." Cao Cao smiled and asked Guo Jia, "I heard that Zirong asked Lu Bu to tie you up?" ”

"In order to do something like this, it can only be like this." Guo Jia said: "Gongzi has returned to Shouchun, I came to ask to see Cao Gong, and I also bid farewell to Cao Gong, planning to chase Gongzi to Huainan." ”

"If Zirong is not punished, this time the matter will not be over." Cao Cao asked Guo Jia, "Feng Xiao thinks it's appropriate to punish him?" ”

"Cao Gong." Xun You said on the side: "I came with Fengxiao, there is a way to punish the son, and I want to ask Cao Gong to take it." ”

"Gongda, please." Cao Cao gestured and motioned for him to continue.

"Childe can't beat or scold, and it's even more inappropriate to lock him up." Xun You said: "If he is demoted, it will definitely affect his reputation. ”

"According to Gongda, it should be up to him to do it?" Cao Cao asked.

"Of course not." Xun You said: "Gongzi's incident this time is not small, and the influence in the army can be said to be very bad, if it is not punished, Cao Gong will definitely not be able to make an order in the future." ”

"Since Gongda also thinks that Zirong should be punished, and he can't be beaten or scolded, and he can't be deprived of his official title, what should I do?" Cao Cao asked.

"Dare to ask Cao Gong, what is Gongzi most afraid of?" Xun You asked.

Cao Cao thought for a moment and said: "No matter what he does, he always has to ask me for some benefits, and it is of course the most difficult to ask him for money and food." ”

"Then punish him with money and food." Xun You said: "Gongzi caused too much trouble this time, punish him for handing over half a year's income of Lingyun Pavilion, does Gong Cao think it is appropriate?" ”

After staring at Xun You for a long time, Cao Cao smiled and said, "Gongda, you are very bad." If Zi Rong knew that you had the idea to punish him for half a year's income from Lingyun Pavilion, he wouldn't be annoyed and draw his sword against you? ”

"Cao Gong praised, I actually think that if I punish more sons, I will agree." Xun You replied with a fist.

"That's a good point." Cao Cao smiled and said to Guo Jia: "Fengxiao arrived in Huainan and told Zirong that he had to give me all the income of Lingyun Pavilion for a year, and this matter would be over." ”
