Unconsciously, a month has passed, and Cao Ju has gradually adapted to the work and life of the notebook. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Of course, Cao Ju also found out that Xu Song had stolen some of his commentaries to ask for credit in front of Zhuang Li, but Cao Ju did not expose him, and let Zhuang Li have a good time first.
Cao San and Cao Si made great progress in martial arts under the guidance of Dian Wei, and they got Dian Wei's internal strength to teach them, and their strength soared, especially, what made Cao Ju very depressed was that Cao San and Cao Si had only practiced for less than a month, and their internal strength had broken through the first level, although it was not the same internal strength method, although it was not as good as Taiping Huanglonggong.
Am I really not the material for cultivating internal strength?
After being depressed, Cao Ju began to reflect, in the next troubled times, he would either become a leading general who fought on the battlefield and had strong martial arts, or he would become a strategist with monstrous strategies and strategizing, but Cao Ju found that both of these possibilities were a little far away from him.
A few brothers of the Cao family, there is no waste, Cao Ren is handsome, Cao Hong, Cao Chun and Cao Xiu are generals, especially Cao Chun, the tiger and leopard cavalry commanded by the commander is simply the king of cavalry, although the number of battles is not much, but every time it is an important battle, and it is a big victory.
With Dian Wei as a good teacher, Cao Ju did the work of Cao Aniu, Cao Yuan and Cao Li again, and gave them two gold per month, in exchange for them to follow Cao Ju and accept Dian Wei's training.
At this time, Cao Ju had already begun to lay out, taking advantage of the troubled times that had not started for the time being, he first increased the force value of several cronies around him, and these people would become his absolute henchmen in the future.
As for the imperial court, a major event also happened, Fan Ling, who had just been promoted to Tai Lieutenant, was also dismissed by Emperor Ling after only a month, which was two-thirds less than Cao Song's three months.
In Yizhou, Ma Xiang, Zhao Yi and others raised troops in Mianzhu, called themselves the Yellow Turban, killed the assassin Shi Yijian, attacked Ba County, Qianwei, in less than a month, broke through the three counties in a row, gathered tens of thousands of people, Ma Xiang called himself the Son of Heaven. Yizhou engaged in Jia Long and others led officials and people to attack Ma Xiang, and defeated them in only a few days, Ma Xiang and others fled, and peace was restored in Yizhou.
A few days later, Liu Yan, the Yizhou pastor appointed by the imperial court, came and moved the state capital to Mianzhu, appeased the scattered and rebellious people, tolerated the government, and implemented kindness to win the hearts of the people.
In addition, there is also news that there was a flood in seven counties, and there was no county, but the county also encountered rain for days, and when he was resting, Cao Ju did not go home and met Tian Jiao again.
In the past month, Cao Ju and Tian Jiao met twice, each time in Cao Chun's house, Tian Jiao entered from the front door, Cao Ju entered through the back door, and the time was not long, but it was better than the lovesickness that could not see each other.
As for Widow Xing, after returning to her parents' home, it was as if she had disappeared, and she had not returned to Caojiabao for two months, and Cao Qi and his wife did not dare to go to Widow Xing's maiden house to ask for someone, so the situation was so embarrassing.
Cao Ju was a little uneasy, so he sent Cao Si to Xingjia Village, only to learn that Widow Xing was frightened on the North Mountain, and after returning to her parents' home, she fell seriously ill, and it took more than a month to be able to walk on the ground.
Cao Ju didn't know the situation of Widow Xing's mother's family, so he secretly went to Beishan, took ten gold, and sent Cao San to Xingjia Village to hand over ten gold to Widow Xing.
Zhang Jiao, of course, also investigated the matter clearly, as Cao Ju said, those yellow scarves in Beishan are a group of scum, and what they did was contrary to Zhang Jiao's requirements, so Zhang Jiao no longer had any doubts about Cao Ju.
Zhang Ning's opinion of Cao Ju did not change because of this, but later, when Cao Ju went up the mountain again, Zhang Ning was not cold to him, and the swords were added, but not salty or light.
Zhang Jiao saw it in his eyes, and he was helpless, he knew Zhang Ning too well, and he had a stubborn personality, so he couldn't keep pressing, otherwise, even if Zhang Ning reluctantly married Cao Ju, he would not be happy if he was extremely resistant.
Take your time, Zhang Jiao can only think like this, but thinking about his yang life getting shorter and shorter, Zhang Jiao is really a little worried, once he dies, there will be no possibility between Zhang Ning and Cao Ju.
Jizhou Wang Fen and Yuan Shao prepared to use force to kidnap Emperor Ling, kill those Chang Servants, Huangmen, and then depose Emperor Ling, and set up the Marquis of Hefei as the emperor's plan, officially started, Cao Cao and Hua Xin were also invited, but both decided that Wang Fen and Yuan Shao would not succeed, and neither participated.
Sure enough, just when Emperor Ling was about to go to Jizhou, Taishi wrote that it was a night observation of the sky, and there was a conspiracy in the north, so Emperor Ling canceled the plan, and later recruited Wang Fen to Luoyang, who was afraid, took off the seal and fled, and committed suicide in the plain.
The days of troubled times are getting closer and closer, Cao Ju remembers clearly, Emperor Ling should divide the military power of the general He Jin, form the Xiyuan Forbidden Army, and the time for Cao Cao to emerge is approaching.
After two months of calm, a conspiracy against Cao Ju is finally about to be introduced.
The reason why Wang Hu, Li Yuan, and Xu Song have not started is because Li Hui fell into their hands half a month ago, and they wanted to pry out the treasure hiding place in Beishan after severely torture Li Hui, and at the same time let Li Hui give false testimony and frame Cao Ju, but Li Hui was tortured so much that he just bit a little, and he didn't know where the treasure was hidden.
Li Hui's toughness was really unexpected by several of them, and as a last resort, Wang Hu Dengshi had to temporarily give up Li Hui's clue and designed a second plan to deal with Cao Ju.
This time, it was another day off, and as usual, except for Dian Wei, the rest of the people followed Cao Ju back to Caojiabao to meet their relatives.
As soon as the group entered the fort gate, Cao Ju suddenly saw that Widow Xing had returned, with her back to the direction of the gate, and was putting clothes on the clothesline.
Cao Ju was surprised and delighted, he didn't expect Widow Xing to come back, but now it was daytime, and with so many people, Cao Ju didn't go to Widow Xing's house.
At noon, Cao Ju secretly went out, looked around, and saw that Cao's fort was empty as usual, so he quickly came to the door of Widow Xing's house, pushed the door, and the inside was bolted.
Didn't Ah Ying know that I was back?
Cao Ju was strange, looked around to see that there was no one, and jumped into the courtyard of Widow Xing's house, came to the main house in two or three steps, and gently pushed, but the main room was not bolted.
However, Cao Ju suddenly smelled a strong smell of blood coming from Widow Xing's bedroom, and he was shocked, so he hurriedly pushed the door in, and entered the bedroom one by one.
A headless female corpse with no strands of body was lying on the bed, the blood in her neck was still flowing outward, apparently she had just died.
