Chapter 115. The world and tastes
The sun and shadow are slanting westward, Cao Zhi's birthday banquet is a few happy and a few sad, Cao Ren got the volume of "Eight Gates Golden Lock Array" as he wished, and the remaining few people didn't get anything, and they returned home, and their mood was so bad that they exploded.
At the end of the banquet, Cao Zhi was suddenly summoned by Cao Ang, breaking the routine of the son's birthday banquet in previous years, which made everyone a little curious, and Xun Yu Guo Jia and others were also summoned.
Cao Zhi walked into the house in fear, bowed his head and pouted, "Zijian greets the eldest brother!" ”
Like Cao Pi, he never dared to raise his head when he saw Cao Ang, and even in private, his fear of Cao Ang was a little heavier than that of Cao Cao.
I still remember that when he was six years old, Cao Zhi just stole the candy that Cao Cao put on the table, and anyone can understand that children are playful, but Cao Ang stared at his ass and beat him, Cao Cao's plea didn't work, and he was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, and since then, Cao Zhi has really seen the "femme fatale" of the eldest brother!
"Zijian, let me ask you, what does Xun Junshi's imprisonment have to do with you?" The corners of Cao Ang's mouth rose with a touch of coldness, and he said in a fierce voice.
Cao Zhi was taken aback, and hurriedly defended: "Xun Junshi is in prison!?" It has nothing to do with Zijian! ”
"Dare to quibble?" Cao Ang left the bamboo slip that Man Pet had just handed over to the ground, and reprimanded angrily: "Take a good look, this is the letter that Man Fujun found in your study, and the handwriting is exactly the same as the letter that Xun Junshi's mansion searched!" ”
Cao Zhi felt the seriousness of the matter, knelt on the ground and said: "Big brother Mingcha, this matter Zijian really doesn't know, at that time my father asked me to practice calligraphy, and took out a few pairs of famous calligraphy and paintings, one of which is Yuan Shao's handwriting, at that time, my younger brother was not sensible, and naturally he didn't understand what he was collaborating with, imitating the direction of his handwriting, and making up some language indiscriminately, and it became what it is now!" ”
"How do you explain that?" Cao Ang let out a long sigh, "This letter of yours is not a word different from the one in the Xun Junshi Mansion!" ”
Cao Zhi scratched his head and said with a smile: "Actually, in this letter, Zijian copied several pairs of bamboo slips, and when he went out to study, he also gave them as gifts to other partners, maybe someone had ulterior motives and used this matter to frame Xun Junshi... And Zijian! ”
Cao Ang's head seemed to have buried a few tons of explosives, and it exploded in an instant, you just write it, and give it to others, if you let Manfujun find out, won't they all be punished for collaborating with the enemy?
If the letter from Xun You's mansion was really from Zi Jian, he would naturally be judged not guilty, but just by how convincing Cao Zhi's words are, at least Xun You's collaborator has been in trouble all over the city, and everyone knows it.
"Childe, Guo Jia thinks that this matter cannot be concluded because of this, although I am an old friend with Gongda, but I still suggest that someone come to investigate this matter thoroughly, at present, Zhong Xuan is in Xuchang, Childe can ask him to identify whether these two letters are from Zijian Gongzi's subordinates, if he says yes, there is nothing to discuss!"
Cao Ang's mouth was dry, and he poured the tea that had been cool on the table for a long time into his stomach, sighed and said: "What Mr. said is reasonable, Zhong Xuan is a calligrapher, and he has no position, I believe that there is no need to deceive us, this matter will be handed over to Manfujun!" ”
"Minister, obey!" Man Pet agreed, and stood sideways.
"In view of the fact that you are a first-time offender, and you have unintentionally caused such a result, I will punish you lightly once, and immediately enter the study to think about it behind closed doors for a month, during which you will study hard, practice calligraphy well, cultivate virtue and politics extensively, and be sensible, and you will not be allowed to come out without my order!" Cao Ang was out of breath.
One month!?
This time period surprised Cao Zhi, knowing that a whole month of being held in the study was hell for someone like him who likes to have fun.
So he asked without knowing the level of his eyebrows: "Big brother, it's not about a light punishment, this month... It's too long, too! ”
"Get out!"
Cao Ang couldn't suppress the flame burning in his heart, "Get out now, if you dare to bargain, I will add another twenty military sticks!" ”
How dare Cao Zhi speak again, and said with a pear blossom on his face: "Big brother, you are so good to me!" Then he went out sobbing.
Looking at the people standing in the hall, he breathed a sigh of relief, this is the best result, protecting Xun Yu is equivalent to protecting his father's right-hand man.
He waved his hand and said: "It's not early, Cao Ang is also a little tired, everyone go back first, Xun Junshi's matter, Cao Ang didn't notice, the responsibility lies with me, when the military teacher comes out, I will personally come to the door to apologize!" ”
"Subordinates retire!"
Guo Jia and Xun Yu, who went out of the door, walked side by side, in an unexpectedly good mood, Xun Yu's grounding order was lifted, he looked at the sun in the sky, patted Guo Jia's shoulder and said: "I have filial piety as a friend, and I am not afraid of the sky falling!" ”
Probably afraid that the man would not be able to kiss him, Guo Jia opened his hand in disgust, with an impenetrable look on his face.
"This matter has finally come to an end, Gongda has suffered a lot, and we also owe Zijian Gongzi a big favor, in the end, we still don't know who the opponent is, but we are just seeing the move, when we meet a trick that can't be cracked, we will lose!"
Xun Yu listened to what Guo Jia said, a little sad, and sighed: "I thought that after entering the Ming Gong Shogunate, my opponents would be Yuan Benchu, Lu Fengxian, Liu Xuande, and Sun Zhongmou, but I never thought that he was a mysterious person, and he was repeatedly led by the nose!" ”
Guo Jia looked at no one around, and whispered: "Actually, yesterday Gongzi Ang had found out the source of the anonymous letter, it was a teacher named Yuan Tianxi, at that time Gongzi wanted to send someone to torture him, but the teacher looked very calm, as if he really didn't know who the person who asked him to write the letter was, so Ang Gongzi moved his heart of compassion, and he didn't kill him, if it was replaced by Ming Gong, I'm afraid this family will suffer!" ”
Xun Yu nodded, smiled and said: "The people behind the scenes dare to do such a rebellious thing, and naturally they will not leave any clues, but there is one sentence, I agree very much!"
Gongzi Ang may not have the talent to rule the world, but he has a heart of benevolence and righteousness, and the future Yanzhou and even the Han world will be handed over to him, which is more reassuring. ”
Speaking of this, Xun Yu paused, he came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to change history, and a few years later, in the battle with Zhang Xiu, he wanted to ensure that Cao Ang could survive no matter what.
He thought about it, this matter seems to be a little difficult, he can change a person's mind, but how can he change a person's habits?
Cao Cao likes other people's wives, no one dares to say it, let alone persuade it!
Sometimes the misfortune does not necessarily come from the mouth, and it may also come from the crotch...
Sure enough, the world is different, and people's tastes are different!
