Cao Shuo escorted a few tomb robbers back to Xudu early in the morning.

He took them to Xudu Prison and threw them into a cell.

Cao Shuo said to the few people in the cell: "If you don't want to die, remember, if someone asks about your crime, just say that you stole the game I roasted, don't tell the truth." ”

"Don't worry, Childe!" Cao Shuo's instructions made Zhou Hao and the others see a glimmer of life, and hurriedly responded.

Back at Cao's house, Cao Shuo went straight to Cao Cao's residence.

got up early in the morning, Cao Cao discussed things with everyone, and returned to the room to discuss tea with Xun Yu.

The two were talking about their happiness, and the guard reported: "Qi Cao Gong, the second son is here!" ”

"Didn't he go to guard the Emperor's Mausoleum? What are you doing here? Cao Cao asked.

"Childe said that there is something important to report." The Guardian said.

"Let him in." Cao Cao commanded.

Cao Shuo entered the house and saw that Xun Yu was also there, and saluted Cao Cao and him separately.

Glancing at Xun Yu, Cao Shuo stopped talking.

"When the prince comes back from the imperial mausoleum, there must be something important." Finding that he didn't want to say it in front of him, Xun Yu got up with a look and said, "Gong Cao, I'll retire first." ”

Cao Cao nodded, and Xun Yu retreated.

"If you don't guard the imperial mausoleum well, what are you doing when you run back?" Cao Cao asked.

"Back to my father." Cao Shuo said: "We caught a few tomb robbers last night. ”

"Tomb robbers?" Cao Cao frowned: "Someone dares to attack the idea of the imperial tomb?" ”

"I checked it yesterday and the hole they opened was very accurate." Cao Shuo said: "I should often do this kind of thing." ”

"Those who dig graves and dig graves, catch and kill them." Cao Cao said: "It's also worth coming back and reporting to me?" ”

"First, they stole the imperial tomb." Cao Shuo said: "Second, I want to ask my father for a favor and spare them from dying." So I rushed back on purpose. ”

"Stealing the imperial tombs, you want to spare them from dying?" Cao Cao frowned, and his face was a little unsightly.

"Father, imagine that if there is chaos today, the Cao family recruits soldiers and horses, raises soldiers, raises weapons, and prepares military rations, what kind of money does not need money?" Cao Shuo said: "There are more and more soldiers in the Cao family, and the consumption is getting bigger and bigger, raising such a huge army, if you don't want to find other ways, you will definitely be stretched." ”

"What do you mean?" Cao Cao asked with a cold face, "Do you want me to use tomb robbers to raise food?" ”

"My father is upright and upright, and he has done his best for the Han family, and he is an example of a hero in the world." Cao Shuo said: "Of course you can't do this kind of thing, and I don't bother to do it. ”

"So what else is there to say?" Cao Cao said: "Kill them, I don't need them to raise food." ”

"But I want to keep them." Cao Shuo smiled shyly: "There were many dignitaries and dignitaries in the previous generations, and the funeral goods that accompany the burial after death are also very attractive. It's a waste of those things buried in the ground and they don't see the light of day, so it's better to have someone pick them up. Taking out things that do not see the light of day and using them is also a good deed and accumulation of virtue. ”

"Digging graves, you say you are doing good deeds and accumulating virtues?" Cao Cao frowned.

"That depends on how you think about it." Cao Shuo said: "The living are always more important than the dead, not to mention that the princes and nobles of the previous generations have nothing to do with us. It is much better to use their things to supplement the soldiers of the three armies than to let the soldiers die of poverty and starvation. ”

"Sharp teeth, you can be said to be three points if you ignore it." Cao Cao was not a pedantic person in the first place, and when Cao Shuo said this, he was also a little tempted.

However, after all, he is a generation of heroes, how could he do the thing of directing the digging of graves?

"I don't think it's right." Cao Cao said: "You have to think twice!" In case someone else knows about ......"

Cao Cao's words were loosened, and Cao Shuo hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "This kind of thing can't be put on the table, of course my father can't participate." As long as my father agrees to hand them over to me, there will be a good outcome. If my father doesn't say it, if I don't say it, who else would dare to say it? ”

"Don't mess with me." Cao Cao said: "You have to be very careful when doing this kind of thing. You can't get too involved. ”

"Father, don't worry!" Cao Shuo responded.

"After that, continue to guard your imperial tomb." Cao Cao said: "You are not allowed to come back until the day!" Go ahead. ”

Cao Shuo retreated.

went to the prison to pick up Zhou Hao and others, and Cao Shuo took them out of Xudu.

"Childe, we don't have to go to see Cao Gong?" After squatting in Xu Du Prison all morning, nothing happened, and Zhou Hao was at a loss.

"It's good to be alive, what else do you want to do?" Cao Shuo asked.

Zhou Hao lowered his head and said that he didn't dare, so he didn't ask any more.

"Do you really want to live?" Cao Shuo asked Zhou Hao and the others again.

"There is nothing that people don't want to live." Zhou Hao hurriedly said: "What does the son want us to do, we will definitely go to the soup in the future!" ”

"I don't need you to go to the soup and fire." Cao Shuo said: "Just let you do your old job." ”

"Childe also wants to go to the grave?" Zhou Hao was stunned.

"Do you think I look like a grave robber?" Cao Shuo glared at him.

"Not like that!" Zhou Hao hurriedly shook his head.

"Am I like a money-hungry and profit-seeker?"

"Not like that!"

"Am I like a person of bad character who only thinks about crooked wealth all day long?"

"Not like that!"

"That's it!" Cao Shuo said: "How can a person like me, who has a good character and does not seek small profits, do such a thing? Go to the grave, you have to go! ”

"Childe is asking us to dig a tomb for the Cao family?" Zhou Hao asked.

"If you are a grave robber, whoever is caught will have your head cut off." Cao Shuo said: "For the Cao family's tomb robbery, you can choose the tomb at will on the Cao family's territory, as long as it is not the ancestor of the Cao family, you can get it as you want." ”

"The reason why I intercede for you is because I believe that you are just begging for a living." Cao Shuo said: "It is more than enough to work in the Cao family, live, and live a very nourishing life." Women and wealth will be there, but it will be harder. ”

"Don't hide it, it's useless to steal things from the tomb and put them in our hands." Zhou Hao said: "Those who are too valuable don't dare to make a move, for fear of being interrogated." If you don't make a valuable shot, you can't get anything back, although you often do this business, and you are hungry every day. ”

"Don't be afraid of this in the future." Cao Shuo said: "If I get something good, I will arrange for someone to sell it." ”

"Okay! We'll follow Childe in the future. Zhou Hao patted his chest and said.

"Now that's a good word, what if you hide what you stole in the future?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Absolutely not!" Zhou Hao said: "Childe wants to arrest a few of us, isn't it ready to be caught?" ”

"That's right." Cao Shuo said: "You go to the barracks first to order a meal and report under my command." Come back to the Imperial Tomb to find me. ”

"Go now?" Zhou Hao asked.

"When are you going to go?" Cao Shuo said: "Mix with me, you will have money and the right to have women!" How is it possible for my team to raise idlers? Definitely going now! ”

"Let's go!" Zhou Hao hurriedly agreed, beckoned a few tomb robbers, and ran to the Xudu military camp in a puff of smoke.
