Cao Zhang was strange when he heard this, Lu Yi naturally would not seek a non-commissioned officer for himself, and Lu Bu had no son, so he said strangely: "Who does my sister-in-law want me to take care of?" ”

Cao Pi replied with a smile: "The nephew of the former Situ Wang Yun, Wang Ling." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Cao Zhang suddenly understood, in the past, Wang Yun and Lu Bu joined forces against Dong Zhuo, and later although they succeeded in killing Dong Zhuo, they were defeated by Dong Zhuo's general Li Dao Guo Yan, Lu Bu was defeated, Wang Yun was killed, this Wang Ling must have escaped by luck at that time, and now Lu Bu took refuge in Cao Cao, his daughter married Cao Pi, and Cao Cao just defeated Yuan Shao, and the limelight is flourishing, and people with a discerning eye know that taking refuge in Cao Cao is the most correct choice, this Wang Yun and Lu Bu can also be regarded as having old feelings, so Wang Ling found the Lu family.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhang asked, "Is this Wang Ling a former non-commissioned officer now?" What are the talents? ”

Cao Pi replied: "It seems that after Li Dao Guo broke Chang'an, Wang Ling fled back to the township, and then raised filial piety, served as a small and medium-sized official in the county, and after I married your sister-in-law, I left the township to live in the house of my brother-in-law, and I have been idle so far, this person is also considered to read through ancient and modern articles, and a person who studies the art of war, 25 years old this year, in the prime of life, and now it should be quiet and thoughtful, and want to do a career, but it has been unable to enter, the third brother is now in charge of Jinwu, and his status is no less than that of Jiuqing, and his subordinate official rank is quite high, which is indeed a shortcut to promotion. ”

Cao Zhang heard this: "I see" suddenly thought in his heart, Cao Pi wouldn't want this guy to come and do Infernal Affairs under himself, right? However, for him, this method is clumsy, after all, this person is related to his father-in-law Lu Bu, and as long as he tries, he will show his feet, so Cao Zhang smiled and said: "In this case, I have the position of Du Bangling, which just makes him competent." ”

Cao Pi smiled: "Thank you for my brother for the third brother!" ”

Cao Zhang said with a smile: "One world, two brothers, brother is polite!" "I thought it would be a good time to test you kid.

Cao Pi and Cao Zhang chatted for a few words and then left, Cao Zhang sent Cao Pi away and called Ji Yue to ask: "Did Xiahou Taishou send a spear to me?" ”

Ji Yue replied: "Back to the third prince, this spear has been put into the Yanwu Hall. ”

Cao Zhang said: "This spear is different from other blades, it is quite precious, tomorrow you go and ask the craftsman to build a box to put it in." ”

Ji Yue replied: "No! ”

Cao Zhang said: "Go and get busy with your business, let people call Yuan Dalu!" ”

Ji Yue left after agreeing, and not long after Yuan Dalu came to the main hall and said with a smile: "What do you have to say about the third prince?" ”

Cao Zhang said: "I am now in charge of Jinwu, to open the Jinwu Temple, this temple order will be handed over to you, in the future in the temple of large and small housekeeping, you have to do everything, you have been a scholar, should not be a stranger to housekeeping!" ”

Yuan Dalu was overjoyed when he heard this, and said loudly while giving a salute: "The little one must do his best, and he doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest." ”

Cao Zhang nodded and said: "Okay, tomorrow let Shuzhi take you to the Arsenal Temple to find Mr. Cheng Yu to report, although this person is both the Arsenal Ling and the Arsenal Cheng, and is nominally my subordinate, but he has the grace to teach me and his status is transcendent, you can't be rude to him, and you can't ask about his affairs, understand?" ”

Yuan Dalu immediately replied: "The little one obeys the order!" ”

Cao Zhang then said to Chen Zhi and Yuan Dalu behind him: "Uncle Zhi, Da Lu, I have already given my brother Wang Ling for the position of Du Ling, but I am not very familiar with this person, you have to keep an eye on me to see if he is a proper person, if he is in the temple or has any changes, see in the eyes and tell me later." ”

Chen Zhi and Yuan Dalu agreed in unison, Cao Zhang saw that there was nothing to do, so he let the two go down to rest, and he went to the room to go to bed.

I slept until dusk, and when I got out of the room, I listened to the maid tell me that Wang Ling made a special trip to visit, saying that he came to thank him, because he gave him a chance to be a non-commissioned officer, and now he has been waiting in the main hall for an hour, because he knows that he is sleeping, and he does not dare to disturb.

Cao Zhangxin said that he came so soon? Is it to show the heart or to cover it? Yes, this person is very measured, he waits honestly when he sleeps, but he is a good person, for a person whose uncle is Situ, it is not easy to do this.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhang said to the maid: "Invite him to my study!" ”

Cao Zhang's study is a three-story attic, square, well-tiled, quite ancient, there are many books in it, but the content is very small, because most of them are bamboo slips, and the capacity is limited.

Cao Zhang was looking at the 25-year-old Wang Ling on a low couch on the first floor of the study at this time, this person was quite bookish, with a gentle appearance, slender eyes, a shrewd face, thick finger joints, it seemed that he had practiced martial arts, not a weak scholar, at this time he was respectfully bowing his head and maintaining a standing appearance, which has been like this since he saluted.

Cao Zhang opened his mouth and said: "Why does Yanyun need to come to the door to thank you in person, this matter is just a gesture." ”

Wang Ling said: "Ling has heard the theory of the three clans of the third prince, and he has no good impression of the wealthy family, but the original reason for the formation of today's situation is because the inspection system, the expropriation system and the appointment system are controlled by the wealthy family, because I want to see that the third prince does not trust the law of being a non-commissioned officer in the dynasty, and Ling is also a non-commissioned officer from the inspection system, so I am afraid that the third prince will be in the way of the second son's affection and appoint Ling, and he will visit with courage and respectfully lead the third prince to teach." ”

Cao Zhang also knew that his theory of the three clans had spread all over the country, but he was afraid that the scholars would classify themselves, but they would not divide themselves into the category of stealing the country and plundering the country, even they would not admit it, so he smiled when he thought of this: "Then Yanyun realizes that the Wang family you are in is which of the three clans?" ”

Wang Ling replied calmly: "The Wang family is a clan that steals the country, and the people in my hometown and state all support Yuan Shao, and they also secretly support the bandits to threaten the officials in the fish and meat township, but my uncle Wang Yun wants to be a person who will make the country safe." ”

Cao Zhang nodded and said: "Well, it is very insightful to admit its shortcomings frankly, but if Wang Sikong wants to be a person who is determined to be the country and the country, why did he refuse to accept it when Li Dao Guo Yan wanted to surrender?" Instead, you want to threaten to kill him? In addition, the Marquis of Kunyang got rid of Dong Zhuo for him, but he did not let him participate in the government affairs, so that the two cooperated unfavorably, and the endogenous rebellion led to Chang'an being broken and ending up in a defeated situation? To put it bluntly, Wang Situ's death was because he didn't look down on Dong Zhuo's lackeys Li Dao and Guo Yan, so he didn't accept it, and he didn't look down on the Kunyang Hou who was not born well, so he no longer relied on it after using it, which can be said to be self-reaping. ”

Wang Ling's face was embarrassed when he heard this, and he was silent, obviously what Cao Zhang said was the truth, and he couldn't refute it, but Cao Zhang's happiness in his heart was not that he refuted Wang Ling, but that he was sure that he was not an undercover agent arranged by Cao Pi, because if it was an undercover agent, he shouldn't have come to see him by himself, and what did he say to congratulate him, making it clear that this is a manifestation of arrogance, young and vigorous, that is, this kind of person, he is not suitable to be an undercover agent at all.

And Cao Zhang also knew that Cao Pi really didn't have this mind, but he was suspicious himself, and Cao Zhang was in a good mood when he figured this out.

So he stood up and patted Wang Ling on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Wang Situ is also a family of eunuchs, he is a big family, and he is very arrogant in the place, but when he meets Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, what can he do?" calculated Dong Zhuo but was killed by his old age, I think Yanyun you still have the habit of being a family, but it is not too heavy, and it is very insightful, if you sharpen it well, you will definitely be able to help me, in the face of absolute force, any clan is empty, and it is not only by conspiracy and intrigue and the small climate of the world at this time, you should reflect on it. ”

After saying that, Cao Zhang left on his own, and the reason why he used words to deter Wang Ling was very simple, that is, he wanted this declining and outdated family to use it for his own use, because he was born in the world, so he naturally knew a lot about it, and the ability to eradicate the world was indispensable to use such a person.

"Use the world, but not the world." Cao Zhangzheng began to practice Guo Jia's words with his own actions.
