Chapter 056: Cao Song's Invitation
As soon as the three of Cao Ju went out, they saw a man who looked like a servant running over quickly and shouted, "Excuse me, which one is Lord Cao Ju?" ”
Cao Ju glanced at the servant and said lightly: "I am, you are ......"
The servant ran to the front, hugged his fists, bowed, and said respectfully: "The little one is a subordinate of the Cao Mansion, and on the order of my master, I would like to invite Lord Cao Ju to come over the mansion." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Cao Fu? Master?
There are a lot of Cao mansions in Qiaocheng, but there are not many masters at home, except for Cao Chun's mansion, the rest of the Cao mansions and Cao Ju have no friendship for the time being.
Cao Ju asked, "Your master is ......?"
The servant immediately replied: "My old master is too small to say it, but my eldest young master has a single name, and now Luoyang is appointed as a speaker." ”
Cao Song?
Cao Ju was very surprised, he didn't expect that he had just come to live in Qiaocheng, and he received an invitation from Cao Song, so he still invited him to come over to talk about it, this Cao Song's actions were too fast.
Cao San and Cao Si were even more shocked, in terms of their identities, a figure like Cao Song, who was once the head of a hundred officials, was definitely something they didn't dare to see when they looked up.
After thinking about it quickly, Cao Ju nodded and said, "Okay, you lead the way." ”
Cao San reacted, immediately stepped forward, and said in a low voice: "Ah Ju, our Caojiabao has a rule that we are not allowed to associate with the people of the Cao family in Qiaocheng, if it is known by the chief of Caobao, I am afraid that it will ......"
Without waiting for Cao Ju to speak, Cao Si snorted and said, "Third brother, the rules of Caojiabao are extremely pedantic, and they are a closed-minded policy. At present, Ah Ju has come out, and Lord Cao Song is a former lieutenant, and he has a wide range of contacts in the court, which will be of great help to Ah Ju's career in the future, not to mention, it was Lord Cao Song who took the initiative to send someone to invite, and it was not Ah Ju who came to ask them, why was Cao Qi afraid? ”
Cao San was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he sighed and said: "What the fourth brother said is extremely true, but I am too pedantic. ”
Seeing that Cao San and Cao Si did not object to this matter, Cao Ju was secretly happy, and did not say anything anymore, so he followed behind the servant and walked towards Cao Song's mansion together.
Along the way, Cao Ju was thinking, what was the intention of Cao Song to suddenly invite him?
Cao Ju is just a small Taishou room, there is no one in the court, if the world is not chaotic, there can be no big opportunity, Cao Song can't take the initiative to invite him for such a small person.
Could it be that Cao Song wants to ease relations with Cao Jiabao?
Or is it because Cao Ju's marriage contract with Tian Jiao will become a brother-in-law with Cao Chun?
When he arrived at Cao Song's mansion, Cao Ju didn't come up with a reason, he couldn't guess that Cao Cao had already seen the impending chaos in the world, and the people who could make Cao Cao feel at ease were none other than Xiahou and Cao, so they would extend an olive branch to him.
After arriving at Cao Song's mansion, the servant led the three of them to a pavilion in the back garden, and then took their leave.
On the pavilion, there are two tables, one host and one guest, each table has been placed a jar of wine and a wine bottle, as well as two cold dishes, although Cao Song has not arrived, but there are already two handsome maids waiting.
Cao Ju was not polite, and knelt directly in front of the guest table, and immediately a maid knelt beside him and helped him fill the wine bottle, and the other maid knelt at the main table and filled Cao Song with wine.
Cao Ju glanced at the maid at the main table, about fifteen or sixteen years old, handsome, not under the paulownia at all, and thought to himself, it is still a big family, and it is also a pleasure to look at such a handsome maid every day.
After a while, Cao Song came over, followed by two mighty men, who were masters at a glance.
Because of being an official for many years, life is too comfortable, Cao Song, who is not very tall, is even more chubby, with a big belly, if it weren't for the fact that he has been an official for many years, he has a sense of coercion, but he is more like a rich man.
Behind the two people behind Cao Song, Cao Ju's gaze stayed on these two people a little more, and he secretly thought in his heart, are these two Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, or Cao Ren and Cao Hong?
When Cao Song came, Cao Ju stood up, took the first step and said, "Cao Ju has seen adults. ”
"Hahahaha......" After Cao Song came, he immediately laughed a few times and said, "No need to be polite, the old man has no official position, this adult is exempt, we can't write two Cao characters in one stroke, speaking of which, the old man is a few years older than your father, so I will call you a good nephew." ”
As he spoke, Cao Song knelt down in front of the main table, squinting his small eyes, and quickly glanced at the faces of Cao Ju and the others.
The first time Cao San and Cao Si saw a big man like Cao Song, their hearts were already abrupt, their faces were slightly pale, their foreheads were already slightly sweaty, and their legs trembled slightly.
But Cao Ju was very calm and calm, neither humble nor arrogant, which made Cao Song quite surprised, and he couldn't help but think highly of Cao Ju.
Cao Ju smiled slightly and said: "What my uncle said is very true, it is a mistake by the little nephew, and I ask my uncle not to be surprised." ”
"I had few contacts before, and I was a little rusty, so why wonder." Cao Song pointed to Cao Ju's guest table, motioned for him to sit down as well, and continued, "Not long after the old man returned to the city, he heard that the virtuous nephew had killed more than 300 Yellow Turban thieves in Beishan with a single sword. Today, I heard that the virtuous nephew was promoted to filial piety, and entered the Taishou Mansion Record Room, and specially prepared a banquet to wash the dust for the virtuous nephew. ”
"Thank you, uncle." Cao Ju was also not polite, hugged his fist, and said, "Don't hide it from my uncle, the matter of Beishan is really a coincidence, if it weren't for the sudden escape of everyone in the prison, and the little nephew inadvertently attacked inside and outside, and there was also the guard team of Caojiabao to respond, otherwise, with the strength of the little nephew alone, he would have been in a different place." ”
Seeing that Cao Ju was not proud at all, Cao Song thought highly of him in his heart, and took the opportunity to ask: "Virtuous nephew, the old man heard that there are dozens of tigers and leopards helping virtuous nephews, I don't know what's going on?" ”
Cao Ju expected that Cao Song would ask this question, and said with a slight smile: "Uncle, it's not a secret, the little nephew has met an immortal since he was a child, and because of his fate with the little nephew, he taught the little nephew a set of skills to subdue the tiger and leopard, but I didn't expect to use it last time, and it can be regarded as saving the life of the little nephew." ”
"I didn't expect my nephew to be so thaumaturgical." Cao Song nodded, seeing that Cao Ju did not hide it, and he was more happy in his heart, so he stopped asking questions, picked up his wine glass, and drank wine with Cao Ju.
While eating and drinking, chatting at the same time, Cao Ju and Cao Song had a very pleasant chat, but Cao Ju obviously felt that the eyes of the two behind Cao Song were very unfriendly, and he basically understood in his heart that they were Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan.
