Throughout the night, Yuan Fang and her mother were very stable.

Early in the morning, her personal maid reported to Cao Shuo: "Qiyu Gongzi, the officials and gentry in Shouchun City heard that Gongzi has added a new little son, and they all went to the mansion to congratulate and are waiting in the front hall. ”

"They're well-informed." Cao Shuo said: "I haven't announced it yet, but I know it." ”

"There are a lot of people in the house, so I can't tell which one is talking nonsense outside." The maid replied, "As long as one person knows, no one else knows." ”

"You're pretty smart." Cao Shuo said to the maid: "With you here to take care of me, I can rest assured." If the eldest lady wants something and wants to eat, you just go to Mrs. Zhen, and she will settle everything down. ”

The maid owes herself.

Cao Shuo stood up: "Wait for dressing and washing, I'll go to meet the guests." ”

No matter where Cao Shuo rests in the lady's residence, he must be a personal maid when he gets up.

It was not the first time to serve him, Yuan Fang's personal maid stepped forward and helped Cao Shuo get dressed.

After dressing and washing, Cao Shuo rushed to the front hall.

Including Guo Jia, there were already many people standing outside the front hall door.

Cao Shuo's staff and generals, except for those who could not be rushed back from other places, all arrived here.

In addition to the big and small officials, most of the gentry in Shouchun City were also present.

"Why, you know everything?" Cao Shuo arched his hand and asked everyone.

"Congratulations to Childe, congratulations to Childe!" Everyone returned a big gift.

"Last night, the eldest lady did add a new son to me." Cao Shuo grinned and said, "From now on, I will also be a person with a son." ”

"There is a successor to Gongzi, if Gong Cao knows, he must be very happy." Guo Jia said: "When I see Cao Gong, I will definitely explain this matter." ”

"Later, I will send someone to explain this matter to my father, and Guo Gong can just eat and have fun in Shouchun." Cao Shuo gently patted Guo Jia's arm, and then said to everyone: "Today I have a banquet at home, and one of you counts as one." In addition, all the restaurants in the city are all chartered, and all the merchants or people in the city, no matter how high or low, can sit down and have a feast as long as they enter the restaurant and sincerely bless my son. ”

"Childe, in this way, the cost is not small." Mi Heng came up and reminded him in a low voice.

"Spend it, spend it." Cao Shuo said: "My family, always make the momentum bigger. ”

"And!" He instructed Cai Ji: "Send someone to Hebei to report the good news, and say that the eldest lady gave birth to a son for me, and Yuan Gong has a grandson." ”

"The Cao and Yuan families are now on the verge of ......fire and water," Cai Ji was stunned.

"It's on the battlefield." Cao Shuo said: "The eldest lady gave birth to a son, which is a common matter between the two families, and Duke Yuan will not do anything to the messenger." Tell the messenger that he saw that Yuan Gong could not mention the battle of Guandu, and one angered him. ”

After Cai Ji responded, Cao Shuo looked at Zhu Ao: "Justice, take a step to speak." ”

Zhu Ao stepped forward and followed Cao Shuo to the side.

"Tian Feng, do you know?" Cao Shuo lowered his voice and asked Zhu Ao.

"I've heard of it." Zhu Ao asked, "Childe plans to save him?" ”

"You can see through it." Cao Shuo smiled and said, "Tian Feng is a talent, if I don't save him, he will definitely die in prison." By reporting the good news to the Yuan family, you brought a hundred Flying Bear Battalion disguised as ordinary attendants into Yecheng and acted on cameras. ”

"Isn't this something that Fire Dance does all the time?" Zhu Ao was stunned.

"Fire Dance has done too many things like this, if you still use their methods, it will be difficult for people to rescue them." Cao Shuo said: "What I want this time is to rob Ming, snatch Tian Feng out of the hands of the Yuan family, and make as much noise as possible." ”

"Childe means ......" Zhu Ao was even more dazed.

Yecheng is the foundation of the Yuan family, and I don't know how many Yuan troops are stationed in the city.

In Yecheng, there is a lot of trouble, and the possibility of escaping is very small.

"I let you make trouble in Yecheng, but I didn't say that you were fooling around recklessly." Cao Shuo said: "I'll talk to Shi Yuan when I go back, and let him help you plan a way, how to not only rescue people, but also make a mess in Yecheng, so that the Yuan family is anxious." ”

"What does Childe mean that this time we will go to Hebei and be accompanied by Pang Gong?" Zhu Ao asked.

"He's not going." Cao Shuo said: "He is just planning for you, and you have to decide what to do when you get to Yecheng." ”

"Obey Childe's orders." Zhu Ao asked, "When will you leave?" ”

"After today's banquet, you will set off for Yecheng." Cao Shuo said: "This matter has been delayed long enough, and if it is later, I am afraid that Tian Feng will not be able to survive that time." ”

"Childe, don't worry, after leaving Shouchun, I will definitely hurry up and get things done as soon as possible." Zhu Ao Yingdao.

After instructing Zhu Ao, Cao Shuo walked to everyone again, and said with a smile on his face: "Everyone, go to the side hall to rest first, and then the banquet is completed, and I will drink with everyone." ”

Cao Shuo spoke, and immediately a servant led everyone to the side hall.

"Childe, I have something I want to talk to you privately." Guo Jia approached Cao Shuo and whispered.

From his expression, Cao Shuo could see that Guo Xin had played a role in looking for him the night before.

"What is Guo Gong going to say?" Cao Shuo lowered his voice and asked Guo Jia: "How many benefits does my father want me to send, so that matter can be considered a result?" ”

"What Gong Cao means is the one-year income of Lingyun Pavilion." Guo Jia whispered.

Cao Shuo was stunned.

He thought of the idea that Cao Cao might fight Lingyun Pavilion, but he didn't expect that he would actually ask for a year's income.

Now Huainan and other places do not collect taxes, and Cao Shuo relies on Lingyun Pavilion for support.

handed over a year's earnings, and his life was very difficult.

"Then let my father punish me." Cao Shuo said: "The income of Lingyun Pavilion can't be taken out even a single copper coin. ”

"Childe never thought about it, how to deal with it if Cao Gong was angry?" Guo Jia asked.

"Guo Gong also knows that I can govern Huainan and other places like this, all thanks to the support of Lingyun Pavilion." Cao Shuo said: "If you take out the year's income of Lingyun Pavilion, the soldiers under my command will have to go hungry. I can't buy weapons, and I don't have the money to buy grain and grass, so when I go on an expedition in the future, what will I use to fight? ”

"Xin'er told me this last night." Guo Jia said: "At first, I thought that it should be nothing to let Gongzi take out a year's income, but after Xin'er said it, I found that if I really did this, Huainan and other places would be paralyzed." ”

"It's good that Guo Gong can be considerate." Cao Shuo said: "I also asked Guo Gong to see my father, and complained a few words of bitterness for me in front of him, so that my father knew that my life here was not easy." ”

"Complaining is still secondary, the key is how to make Cao Gong dispel the idea of asking for Lingyun Pavilion's benefits." Guo Jia replied.
