Cao Shuo suggested that Cao Zhang avoid the conflict with Cao Pi.

Cao Zhang shook his head and smiled: "Don't hide it from my eldest brother, since the last time I went to Yecheng, I have turned against him." I only ask for one thing from my eldest brother. ”

"You and my brother, what else can't we say." Cao Shuo smiled and patted his arm.

"When the day the second brother is defeated, I don't care if he lives or dies." Cao Zhang said: "I only ask my eldest brother to spare my mother. After all, her mother is a woman, and as long as she is put under house arrest and not allowed to contact any outsiders, she can't do anything. ”

"Without Zihuan, even if she wants to do something, she can't do it." Cao Shuo said: "After all, the world is still a man's world, and the so-called red face and disaster are because men give them the opportunity to do harm, so that they can participate in deciding the world." If men don't give them a chance, they're afraid they won't be able to do anything. ”

What Cao Shuo said, if it is placed in 2,000 years, will definitely be swept out by feminists.

can be placed in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, including women, no one will question it.

"Eldest brother agreed?" As soon as Cao Shuo said this, Cao Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"I may be able to refuse what others ask, but how can I not agree to what you request?" Smiled and patted his arm again, Cao Shuo said, "Accompany me for a walk in the back garden." ”

Walking on the bluestone path in the back garden with Cao Shuo, Cao Zhang asked, "When does the eldest brother plan to use troops against Yecheng?" ”

"When to use soldiers is not me, but Zihuan." Cao Shuo said: "Jiang Gan and Yuan Hao are both in Hanzhong, and if Liu Xuande wants to advance to the Central Plains, he must pass through the territory of Zhang Lu. I got the news that he is in full contact with Zhang Lu, and Zihuan and I will also step up to woo Zhang Lu. ”

"What does the eldest brother mean that Zhang Lu's existence is very important?" Cao Zhang asked.

"Of course he's important." Cao Shuo said: "Whoever belongs to Hanzhong will have an extra place to send troops, and if I get Hanzhong, I can hoard soldiers and horses there." Zihuan can be defeated in the north, and Liu Xuande can be pacified in the south. And if Zihuan gets there, he can send troops to attack my territory in two ways. ”

"No matter how you look at it, Liu Xuande's situation seems to be very embarrassing." Cao Zhang said: "The eldest brother won Hanzhong, and in order to crusade against the second brother, he should destroy Liu Xuande first." With the military strength of our army, Liu Xuande is powerless to resist at all. Changed to the second brother, with the soldiers and horses in Yizhou, he should not be able to hold it for too long. ”

"Don't underestimate Liu Xuande." Cao Shuo said: "In the past, he didn't have anything, didn't he survive in the troubled times? Now that he is sitting in Yizhou, it will be more difficult to deal with than in the past. ”

"Speaking of Liu Xuande, he is really alive and lasting." Cao Zhang said: "My father has passed away, but he is still alive. If I'm right, he's probably older than my father. ”

"There are no young and old people on the Huangquan Road." Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Shuo sighed: "My father was hurt by his headache!" ”

"Eldest brother doesn't have to mind." Cao Zhang's face was also sad, but he was trying to explain Cao Shuo: "Even Mr. Hua Tuo is helpless, I'm afraid no one in the world can save my father." ”

"My father has always been suspicious, and Mr. Hua Tuo is good at many healing methods, some of which may make him suspicious." Cao Shuo said: "Mr. is the best in the world in medical skills, and I think he will come up with a way to heal sooner or later." ”

In fact, Hua Tuo already had a way to heal, but Cao Shuo knew that that method must not be mentioned in front of Cao Cao.

Once Cao Cao was told the method, he would probably think that Cao Shuo had instructed Hua Tuo to harm him, and wanted to get the power of the Cao family earlier.

Cao Cao's death was somewhat implicated in Cao Shuo's failure to let Hua Tuo say a way to heal.

Although he felt guilty about this incident, Cao Shuo also knew that he didn't have any choice.

Good intentions don't always lead to good things.

If Cao Cao wasn't so suspicious and was willing to let Hua Tuo give it a try, his headache would probably be cured.

The suspicious nature saved him countless times in his early years, but in the end he also killed him.

Looking up at the sky, Cao Shuo sighed in his heart, Shi also died, he had saved Cao Cao's temperament countless times, but finally killed him!

Of course, it was impossible for Cao Zhang to see Cao Shuo's thoughts.

Seeing him looking up at the sky and sighing softly, Cao Zhang persuaded again: "Father is gone, and the eldest brother doesn't have to think about it." I know that my father was very kind to my eldest brother when he was alive, and my eldest brother also honored my father. ”

"Actually, there's a sentence I don't know whether to say or not." Cao Zhang then came up with another sentence.

Cao Shuo looked at him: "We are brothers, what can't we say?" ”

"The eldest brother promised first that he would not be more serious with me, so I dared to say it." Cao Zhang lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Cao Shuo.

Knowing that what he was about to say was likely to make him very unhappy to hear, Cao Shuo still replied: "Just say whatever you want, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, where is there still a male husband?" ”

After Cao Shuo said a few words, Cao Zhangcai replied: "What I want to say is that in fact, if my father hadn't been too partial to the eldest brother, maybe the second brother wouldn't have done things so desperately......"

"You don't think he will?" Cao Shuo asked.

Cao Zhang lowered his head and did not respond.

When he said this, he didn't have much confidence, after all, what Cao Pi had done in the past made him see that the second brother didn't take his brother in his eyes at all.

"It seems that you forgot about Brother Chong." Cao Shuo asked, "Brother Chong provoked him at the beginning?" Just because he told you that he planned to come to Shouchun to serve me, he killed him. What do you think Zihuan thinks are brothers in his eyes? ”

"I was wrong." Speaking of Cao Chong, Cao Zhang lowered his head and said, "I'm just ......"

"Zihuan also came to Xuzhou, and my father also told me to teach her some skills." Cao Shuo asked, "Do you know why I didn't teach him any skills, and when you came to Shouchun, you spared no effort to find someone to teach you martial arts?" ”

"Could it be that the eldest brother has seen through the second brother a long time ago?" Cao Zhang raised his head in astonishment.

A light smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and Cao Shuo said: "Zihuan is a hero, he not only has the appearance of a hero, but also the mind of a hero. He will be tolerant of many, but those people do not include our brothers who might endanger his position. ”

Cao Shuo's words were reasonable, but Cao Zhang couldn't find any reason to refute them.

Looking back over the years, Cao Pi has indeed done many things that go against brotherhood.

If it weren't for Cao Shuo's ability to be stronger than him, he might have been harmed by him a long time ago.

"Many things are not as simple as you think." Cao Shuo said to Cao Zhang: "You have a pure temperament, of course you don't want to believe that these are true. However, Zihuan can make them one by one. ”

Coming to a small road, Cao Shuo continued: "Call your brother Jun, I have some things to explain to him." ”
