"The king means ......"

"Hmm!"

Cao Cao's eyes closed slightly, and he let out a deep groan, and then stood up. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Ignoring Cao Peng, who was still in a daze, he went upstairs. After a serious illness in Jingzhou, his body bones are indeed not as good as before. It seems that in the year before last, there was no fatigue after a whole day of deliberation. But now, just one morning discussion made him feel tired. There's a lot more going on today, so let's go upstairs and rest for a while.

"Wuxianghou, please go back."

The chamberlain stepped forward and said respectfully.

Cao Peng reacted at this time, and when he saw that Cao Cao was gone, he couldn't help but be surprised.

This old fellow brought me in early in the morning, didn't he just ask me to go to Madame Joe? If that's the case, he's too idle.

"Dare to ask, Gao's surname?"

"Ah...... Wuxiang Hou is polite, the slave is more and more general, why is it enough to worry about the cheap name? ā€

"Oh, the more often you serve...... I want to inquire about something, how has the king slept lately, and how is his diet good? ā€

Yue sent Cao Peng out of Zichen Pavilion, and on the way, Cao Peng asked in a low voice.

A golden cake quietly fell into the hands of that Yue, and the more happy he became.

Cao Cao was very wary of eunuchs, and he had ten permanent attendants in his early years as a lesson from the past, which also made him inexplicably vigilant about eunuchs. But as the king of Wei, these people are indispensable. As a result, Cao Cao's management of them was also very strict. Those who came to the Chinese martial arts never had a good face towards these eunuchs.

It was Cao Peng, who was extremely kind.

Yue thought about it for a while, and said softly: "The king is awake in sleep now, and he often wakes up in an hour or two, and he can't fall asleep again. During this time, the king mostly rested in Zichen Pavilion, and his diet was normal, but the amount of food was very small. A small bowl of rice is enough for a meal, and the slaves and maids are also very attentive. ā€

Cao Peng couldn't help frowning slightly.

Cao Cao's behavior is not a good phenomenon......

"It's hard to worry about it, you must take care of your diet, and you must let the king sleep well and nourish your spirit."

"That's, that's the slave's duty."

Walking out of the royal capital, it was already noon.

Cao Peng was worried and a little dazed.

Cao Cao's physical condition seems to be very bad...... From his sleep and diet, we can roughly see the clues.

remembers that in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there is such a plot.

After Sima Yi inquired about Zhuge Liang's daily habits, he concluded that Zhuge Liang's life would not be long in coming...... In fact, Zhuge Liang did die of hard work in the end, as Sima Yi expected.

Zhuge Liang's daily life at that time was very similar to Cao Cao today.

Cao Peng thought for a long time, suddenly changed his route and went to Zhang Zhongjing's residence. Now although Zhang Zhongjing has no official position, his status is extremely detached. There are three names in the court, Zhang Ji, Hua Tuo and Zhi Xi. However, Fat Xi has passed away, which makes Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo more and more important. Many ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee will seek him for diagnosis and treatment, although they have no official position, but this mansion is still full of traffic.

Cao Peng and Zhang Zhongjing are also old acquaintances, and their sudden visit also made Zhang Zhongjing very excited.

The two talked for a long time in the study, and the topic was mainly focused on Cao Cao's physical condition.

Zhang Zhongjing is Cao Cao's full-time doctor, and if he has a headache and brain fever, Cao Cao will look for him.

According to Zhang Zhongjing, Cao Cao's physical condition was not optimistic, mainly because of a serious illness in Jingnan, which made him weak. Originally, if it was a good life and recuperation, it would be fine. However, Cao Cao, as the king of Wei, had a lot of affairs. In addition, he presided over the Battle of the Xiongnu River last year, and he hollowed out his body, which is quite worrying.

"If the gentleman has free time, walk around more and check the king's body regularly to avoid accidents."

"I can save this!"

Cao Peng chatted with Zhang Zhongjing for a while, then said goodbye and left.

Originally, Zhang Zhongjing wanted to keep Cao Peng for dinner, but Cao Peng had something on his mind, so he excused himself.

After leaving Zhang's mansion, Cao Peng went home with a heavy heart.

However, it suddenly occurred to him that this time he met Cao Cao, and it seemed that he was all short from his parents, and he didn't say anything else. It stands to reason that Cao Cao would at least tell him what he would do next. But when you think about it, it seems that there is no such thing involved in today's talks......

Could it be that Cao Cao was jealous and wary of him?

It shouldn't be!

If Cao Cao was really wary of him, he wouldn't have anything to do with him.

Or maybe Cao Cao hasn't figured out how to arrange it?

Well, that's quite possible.

Otherwise, go to Guo Jia and ask?

As Cao Cao's mastermind and a lieutenant general, Guo Jia must know some inside stories. Thinking of this, Cao Peng was just about to order a change, but when he saw the end of the long street, he came at a gallop and arrived in the blink of an eye.

"Junhou, something happened!"

"Huh?"

Cao Peng looked down and recognized that the person was the housekeeper in the house.

The Marquis of Wuxiang Mansion is different from what it was back then, and a Deng Juye can be managed. The entire Hou Mansion is up and down, adding up to nearly 1,000 people, not to mention the grange outside the city, the courtyard in Xingyang, and the family property in Xudu. After all kinds of calculations, Cao Peng has unknowingly accumulated an astonishing fortune.

With so much wealth, it really needs a lot of people to take care of it.

For example, in the Wuxiang Hou Mansion in Yecheng, there are two chief stewards and dozens of housekeepers.

The person who came was named Cao Liang, and he was also a close confidant brought by Cao Ji from Xingyang.

"Cao Liang, what's going on, so panicked?"

"The eldest lady, the eldest lady, they were playing in Tongquetai, but the frivolous float came from nowhere, blocking the way of the ladies. The little lady gave them a lesson, but those frivolous people attracted a group of splashes...... When the eldest lady saw that the situation was not good, she asked the villain to come and inform the prince and ask the prince to call the shots. ā€

When Cao Peng heard this, he was immediately angry!

Without saying a word, he snatched an ash pole from the hands of a family member with a lifting rein.

"Show me the way."

"Whoa!"

Cao Liang hurriedly got on the horse and led the way in front.

Cao Peng led more than 30 flying camel tooth soldiers, and the group galloped on horseback, and rushed out of the gate of Yecheng in the blink of an eye.

Tongque Terrace, located in Yecheng 17 miles away.

As described by Tongque Taifu, it is magnificent and spectacular.

Tongque Terrace, Golden Tiger Terrace and Jade Dragon Terrace are connected to each other, becoming a very eye-catching landscape in Yecheng.

Ten miles out of Yecheng, Cao Peng saw two teams of men and horses facing each other on the official road.

On one side, it was his wife and children, Sun Shangxiang led a team of hundreds of maidservants, armed with knives and guns, waiting for the battle. Opposite them was a group of people dressed as Zhuang Ding, about two or three hundred people, also armed with sticks, shouting loudly, and uttering all kinds of foul language, quite arrogant.

Cao Peng took the lead, didn't speak, and came close in the blink of an eye.

The arm-thick ash pole in his hand fluttered, picked up a stick flower, and poked it in the chest of a Zhuang Ding. The huge force poked the Zhuang Ding up all of a sudden, and he fell to the ground with a puff, spitting blood. The ash pole was in Cao Peng's hand, and the shadow of the stick was heavy, and he heard the sound of popping continuously, and when Cao Peng came to Cai Yan and the others, dozens of people behind him had fallen to the ground wailing, one by one the bones were broken and tendons, and they could no longer stand up.

"Husband!"

"What's going on......"

Cao Peng asked sharply.

saw Sun Shangxiang pointing at those Zhuang Ding, and said loudly: "My sisters and I were about to go back, but the frivolous float from nowhere blocked our way. Originally, my sisters didn't want to cause trouble, so I only taught them a small lesson. But they didn't want to, they gathered a group of people to take us away. ā€

Cao Peng's face became gloomy.

He turned his horse's head and looked at the villagers......

Leng Sensen's gaze only made people feel frightened.

"We are Huanzhonglang's people, you beat my son-in-law, do you still want to leave?"

A retainer dressed as a leader jumped out, carrying a knife in his hand, and shouted loudly, "Do you know who my family Huanzhonglang is?" It is the uncle of the son, and he worships the general of Zuo Zhonglang. Those who knew each other immediately dismounted and tied up, and went to my lord to plead guilty. Otherwise, you will let your family be ruined, and there will be no place to bury you. ā€

Kanchuro?

Cao Peng immediately remembered that this Huanzhonglang's name was Huanlang, and it was said that he was the brother of Mrs. Huan.

Previously, he played in Haixi, and was later transferred back to Xudu. After Cao Cao worshiped King Wei last year, he named this Huanlang as the general of Zuozhonglang. Although it is only a fictitious position, it is also two thousand stones, and the status is quite low.

His brows furrowed slightly, and Cao Peng's eyes narrowed.

He glanced at the flying camel soldiers outside, and suddenly said sharply, "What are you doing standing there?" If you don't let me drive away this group of dogs, will you want this prince to do it himself? ā€

Before the words fell, the flying camel tooth soldiers shouted in unison, and the horses rushed over.

It's just that they don't just have ash poles in their hands, most of them are horizontal knives out of their sheaths. The sword glittered, and the flesh flew sideways. These flying camel tooth soldiers are not only well-trained, but also have experienced the bloody battle of Hehuang, and they can be regarded as ruthless characters who came out of the sea of corpses and blood. They do it, where is there a good one? Those Zhuang Ding are just a group of rabble, although there are many people, how can they withstand those flying camel tooth soldiers? In the blink of an eye, he was killed and screamed for mercy.

Sun Shangxiang was eager to try and wanted to go over to join the war.

But Mrs. Qiao reached out, pulled her sleeve, and shook her head at her.

At this moment, a group of iron horsemen galloped in the distance.

"Mother, what happened?"

But it was Sun Shao who rushed over with someone.

When Cao Peng saw Sun Shao, he was furious. When Sun Shao arrived, the ash pole in his hand fluttered a giant python and turned over, knocking Sun Shao off the horse with a snap. Although Sun Shao's martial arts are high, he has also won the true legend of the Ma family gun. But in front of Cao Peng, he didn't have the slightest strength to fight back, and only fell dizzy.

"Teacher ......"

"Bastard, you came with your mother to relax, but where did you go?"

"I ......"

"If it weren't for your aunt to protect you, your mother would have been snatched away...... If that's the case, you bastard, where else are you standing here? It's really a rotten wood that can't be carved, and I've learned a skill, but I can't even protect your mother, and I dare to say that I want to make a contribution? And there they are, and I will give you thirty breaths, and if there is one man standing, then pone thyself and apologize. ā€

Sun Shao's face was red when he was scolded, he looked in the direction of Cao Peng's finger, and without saying a word, he rushed forward with a stick.

To be honest, this kind of thing is really no wonder Sun Shao.

With a young heart, he is not used to accompanying a group of women. So when he arrived at Tongque Terrace, Mrs. Qiao saw that he was restrained, so she asked him to take people to play. But he didn't expect that when he left, there would be such a thing. Sun Shao was extremely embarrassed and angry, and rushed into the crowd, the stick in his hand was rounded, and he was beaten violently.

Cao Peng's face was gloomy and he didn't say a word.

Sun Shangxiang was also a little scared at this time, standing aside and not daring to speak.

"Junhou, it's no wonder Xiao Shao is doing this."

Cai Yan said softly: "It's our ......"

"Sister Cai, don't interject.

I'm teaching this kid what responsibility is. Before I went out, I told him to protect you. Whether you want him to go or not, he has forgotten his responsibility...... Now he is fine at home, but if he is in the army in the future, he will disregard military discipline and will end up with a capital crime. ā€

For some reason, Cao Peng's attitude towards Sun Shao has changed somewhat.

If it was yesterday, he would have taught two lessons at most, but he would never have made a move. But today, especially after Cao Cao's words, Cao Peng unconsciously became more strict with Sun Shao.

In less than thirty breaths, Sun Shao and those flying camel tooth soldiers beat the more than 200 Zhuang Ding to the point of missing arms and legs, and wailing one by one.

Cao Peng glanced at the leader, and suddenly said: "Go back and tell Huan Lang, I don't need him to make my family ruined, before noon tomorrow, if I don't hand over his son to apologize, Lao Tzu will hit his house, and he will be unsightly...... Just said, this is what I Cao Peng said, and I have the ability to let the horse come. ā€

After speaking, he glanced at Sun Shao and shouted, "Don't get on the horse yet, go back with me." ā€

Sun Shao was frightened, but he didn't dare to resist at all, and hurriedly turned over and got on the horse.

"Go home!"

Cao Peng shouted in a deep voice, and left with his horse.

At this time, I saw a team of errand soldiers coming from the direction of Yecheng.

The leader is a middle-aged man in his forties, tall, sturdy, with sword eyebrows and beautiful hair under his chin, which is quite dignified.

Seeing Cao Peng, the man was stunned for a moment and hurriedly dismounted.

"Yecheng ordered Cheng Yan to meet the Marquis of Wuxiang."

This Cheng Yan is Cheng Yu's young son, and now he is the commander of Yecheng.

Before Cao Peng returned the salute, he heard the sound of horses' hooves again, and a team of people and horses came from a distance. This Yecheng Captain was originally just a commander of the ranks, and his position was not high. But as Yecheng became Yedu, the captain of Yecheng also rose......

is similar to the city gate captain of Xu Du, who is also two thousand stone and is in charge of Yecheng's defense and security.

Cheng Yan saw that Bu Qi was also coming, and immediately complained to himself.

He heard that someone was fighting outside the city, and one of them also involved Zuo Zhonglang and Huanlang.

Cheng Yan and Huanlang didn't have any friendship, but they were also colleagues, so they rushed to investigate.

Who knows, the other party has a bigger background, and it turned out to be Cao Cao's first favorite minister, Cao Peng, the Marquis of Wuxiang.

Cheng Yan and Cao Peng have never intersected, but his father admires Cao Peng very much.

Especially over the years, Cao Peng's reputation has risen, which makes Cheng Yan have to deal with it carefully. Bu Qi is not only Cao Peng's disciple, but also Cao Peng's brother-in-law. As soon as he came over, things were even more complicated.

You must know that Captain Yecheng is responsible for public security.

Such things should be handled by Bu Qi.

If Bu Qi didn't come, Cheng Yan would try his best to make this matter a big deal. But when Buqi comes, I'm afraid things will be complicated.

Cao Peng was not polite to Bu Qi, and scolded him with a scolding face.

"Zishan, is this the Yecheng under your jurisdiction?

There is such a frivolous float who can run rampant and rob people's daughters? It's just a bullshit left middle general, so arrogant? Do you still want to be the captain of Yecheng? If you don't want to, I'll go to meet the king, dismiss you as the captain of Yecheng, and you will honestly go back to Xingyang to farm. ā€

Bu Qi's face turned red all of a sudden!

He shouted angrily: "Come on, don't take all these dogs and things away, and greet me with a good life." ā€

Then, Bu Qi didn't say anything, and bowed to Cao Peng, "Childe, please rest assured, Zishan will explain this matter to Childe." ā€

Cheng Yan secretly complained in his heart, knowing this, he was afraid that he would not be able to be good.

Cao Peng glanced at him and suddenly said, "Cheng Yecheng, don't say that I won't give you face...... Please report this to the king, and if the king tells me to leave it alone, I will let it go; But if the king doesn't speak, he advises Cheng Yecheng not to meddle in this matter. I know it's hard for you to do, so if that Huanlang looks for you, let him come to me. ā€

After that, Cao Peng urged the horse and went straight to Cheng Yan's side.

With one sentence, he blocked Cheng Yan's way to intercede.

It seems that this King Cao Yan is really annoyed...... Also, even if you Huanlang is tyrannical on weekdays, you don't want to die but you come to provoke this murderous king? This is a person who even dares to raid his family and exterminate his family, what can you do if you are a little Zuo Zhonglang General? That's it, I can't control this matter, and I don't dare to take care of it. Angered this King of Cao Yan, I can't even get into it...... Forget it, out of sight and out of mind!

Thinking of this, Cheng Yan hurriedly said: "This matter is no longer under the jurisdiction of the lower officials, and it is all governed by the captain of the step."

Since the captain is here, there is no matter of being dismissed.

Rest assured, this Yecheng is the royal capital, and it is by no means a place without law, and this incident will never happen again. ā€

didn't look at this King Cao Yan, scolding Buqi as if scolding his grandson.

Although it is said that it is a Yecheng order, it is better to keep a low profile......

Cao Peng turned his head and glanced at Cheng Yan, and arched his hand, "When I say hello to the boss, he will come to visit him one day." ā€

After that, Cao Peng led the people away!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Cao Peng left, but Cheng Yan and Bu Qi couldn't go.

Looking at those Zhuang Ding who were wailing incessantly, Cheng Yan waved his hand and motioned for the messenger to go over to help and assist Buqi in arresting everyone.

"Captain ......"

"If Cheng Yecheng pleads, please excuse himself.

Zishan has never been so reproached since he was attached to his son. If you don't do this well today, Buzishan will have no face, and you will go to see Gongzi again. I also know that you are difficult to do, if Huanlang asks, just push it to me. Since the king set the capital of Yecheng, this ring Lang has been arrogant and is about to be rectified. ā€

This sentence also means that there is no room for looping back in this matter.

No matter who is behind Huanlang, Cao Peng can't give up...... Yecheng, it's going to be a storm!

Cheng Yan smiled slightly, "Don't misunderstand, the lower officials also intend to rectify Yecheng."

Although the security of Yecheng is the responsibility of the infantry captain, how can he stand by and watch when the officials are ordered by Yecheng? ā€
