After riding a horse and returning to Cao's mansion, Cao Zhang asked his subordinates, "What about my father?" ”

The servant replied, "The master is in Mrs. Bian's room." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Cao Zhang heard the words and went directly to Bian's house, as soon as he entered the house, he saw that the door of the front hall was open, Cao Cao and Bian were sitting on the Hu bed talking together, and when he saw Cao Zhang walk in, Cao Cao smiled and said: "Zhang'er, come in, my father and your mother are discussing the matter of giving you a crown gift." ”

Hearing this, Cao Zhang walked in and saluted the two and said, "The child first went to Uncle Boda's house today, and then to Uncle Miaocai's house. ”

Cao Cao smiled when he heard this: "My father just mentioned at the banquet that Zhang'er is becoming more and more sensible, and he has reached the age of opening the mansion, Miaocai and Boda said that there is a daughter in the family and wants to kiss and kiss, but I didn't expect them to be so anxious, so they told Zhang'er first." ”

Bian Shi was surprised when he heard this: "Isn't Boda's daughter only seven years old?"

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Boda wants to give it to Zhang'er as a daughter-in-law, which shows how likable our Zhang'er is." ”

Cao Zhang said embarrassedly: "Father, that... What does the child mean, who is right? ”

Cao Cao replied: "Miaocai's clan daughter is fifteen this year, naturally she is the first to be right, and her father has seen Juan'er, which is indeed the best in the world." ”

Cao Zhang said: "I respect my father's orders. ”

Cao Cao suddenly said to Bian's family: "Madame, wait a minute, say some private words for your husband and Zhang'er." Then he got up and took Cao Chang to the courtyard.

Cao Cao hugged Cao Zhang's shoulders and whispered: "Zhang'er, everyone, father and son, there is no need to twist and pinch when it comes to marriage, you have accepted a witch, have you already had a spring dream?" ”

The ancients of this year called the dream a spring dream, which is a tactful way to ask, in fact, it is to ask whether it is already possible to do things for men and women.

Cao Zhang smiled awkwardly: "If the child starts to dream in spring, Ji Yue will not be a virgin for a long time... ”

Cao Cao smiled when he heard this: "It's only been these two years, Zhang'er relaxes, Zihuan seems to have had a spring dream when he was 11 years old." ”

Cao Zhang said: "Yes, Father Xie pointed out. ”

Cao Cao then took Cao Zhang to the room and said: "My father plans to build a mansion next to Zihuan's mansion for you, and the ninth crown ceremony will be held at the beginning of the first month of next year. ”

The father of the person who received the crown at the time of the crown ceremony generally did not give his son the crown ceremony as the master, so he had to invite a talented and virtuous person to crown the ceremony, and the person who gave the crown ceremony to Cao Pi was called Zheng Xuan, who was a scholar of the current dynasty, and made annotations to many ancient books, Cao Zhang and Cao Pi had read his "Zheng Jian" when they were young, and they were the first scholars of the dynasty.

However, hearing Cao Cao say this, Zheng Xuan estimates that time is running out, so he has to invite another person, but now Cao Cao is a very popular minister, and the candidate for this big guest also has to take a lot of brains, like Zheng Xuan, a detached and world-famous university scholar is really rare, and it is difficult to find the second one.

Cao Zhang originally wanted to say that he would let Emperor Xian come to the crown ceremony, but it was not appropriate to think about it, Emperor Xian married Cao Xian, and he was the same generation as himself, so what kind of system did he want him to come to the crown ceremony, and suddenly thought of Guo Jia, he and himself have a teacher-student friendship, and it is suitable for him to be a guest.

Moreover, the crown ceremony means that a person has never had to bear social responsibilities as a child to become an adult who practices the virtues of filial piety, loyalty, and obedience, as well as a qualified son, a qualified younger brother, a qualified subordinate, a qualified junior, and other qualified social roles.

Therefore, the significance of the crown ceremony to the crowned person is second only to the biological father, it is a very close relationship, like Cao Pi said, it was Zheng Xuan, the first scholar in the world, who gave him the crown gift, which was a very face-saving thing, but Cao Zhang wanted to let the crown ceremony closely link himself with Guo Jia, Guo Jia's value is undoubted, and after this incident, he Cao Zhang also had an excuse to get close to Guo Jia.

So Cao Zhang said: "Mr. Fengxiao and the child have a teacher-student friendship, why don't you let him be a guest?" ”

Cao Cao thought about it and agreed: "It should be like this, Feng Xiao has been lecturing to my son for the longest time." ”

While talking, the father and son returned to the main hall and talked to Bian's again, and the family of three was happy until dinner time.

The next day, Cao Cao asked people to go to Ren Jun and Xiahou Yuan's house to propose marriage, this is just a procedure, the two families immediately agreed, Cao Pi heard the news and said that Cao Zhangyan was not shallow, just received a witch in Hanoi, and now he has two wives at once, one big and one small, which is enviable.

Although this remark is a bit jealous, Cao Pi still said that he would give a generous gift when Cao Zhang's wedding, as for Emperor Xian, when he heard the news, he specially summoned Cao Zhang into the palace, and greatly praised Cao Zhang's mind, and the implication was naturally that Cao Zhang put a pair of 'broken shoes' into the main room, Cao Zhang felt helpless about this, and wondered if Cao Pi would marry Yuan Xi's wife Zhen Xiandi in the future.

As for the repair of the mansion, not only Cao Cao, Ren Jun, and Xiahou Yuan all funded and sponsored, but Emperor Xian also asked the master craftsman in charge of the palace to design the mansion for Cao Zhang, which can be seen in the favor of the long.

All this is going on in an orderly manner, in the blink of an eye, four years of Jian'an have passed, Cao Zhang's mansion has also been repaired, on the ninth day of the first month of the fifth year of Jian'an, Guo Jia gave a gift to Cao Zhang, but the war is coming, so the marriage was not held, Cao Zhang and Cao Zhen equipped the tiger and leopard rider with marching food after the crown ceremony, and sent someone to Kunyang to invite Lu Bu, who was in Kunyang to retire, to protect his safety.

After everything was prepared, Cao Zhang took 400 tigers and leopards to ride to Runan Zhizhi and went to Pingyu, and Cao Cao also sent troops to Guandu in the same year, because there was a general like Lu Bu who could conquer and fight, Cao Zhang simply handed over the command to Lu Bu, and he wanted to be idle.

There was no burden of baggage, the tiger and leopard rode three hundred miles a day, and arrived at the Pingyu of the Zhizhi at dusk on the second day, at this time it was Li Tong, the Taishou of Runan, who was stationed in Pingyu, and heard that Cao Zhang came to Li Tong to greet him out of the city, and then came to the county government with Cao Zhang, Cao Zhen, and Lu Bu to explain the situation in Runan.

Since the last time Cao Zhang suppressed the bandits for two months, the fierce flames of those thieves supported by the local heroes have been greatly reduced, but since Cao Jun and Yuan Shao have faced each other, they have begun to move again, although they have not put a clear flag to support Yuan Shao, but they have also plundered several counties where the city defense is not strong enough, and then these bandits are very tacitly concentrated in a place on the border of Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and seem to be waiting for the opportunity to give a fatal blow.

After hearing these news, Cao Zhang first asked Li Daodao: "Does Taishou know how many bandits there are?" ”

Li Tong said: "There are about 3,000 people, but the local heroes have a lot of private soldiers, and if they unite with these bandits to attack, the number of people should exceed 30,000." ”

Lu Bu smiled and said: "The rabble, if there is no general, how can we join forces together, we will not dare to make any more moves if we break the thieves." ”

Li Tong sighed: "The difficulty is in Henan, the terrain of the junction of Xu is complicated, 3,000 people have strong support, bring enough military rations, hide in it, it is difficult to find traces, if you send a large army to my Runan and the county is empty, it is really powerful and difficult to do." ”

Lu Bu smiled: "It just so happens that I know a lot about Yu and Xu Jiaojie, and I know where they will hide with my eyes closed!" ”

Cao Zhang was overjoyed when he heard this, Lu Bu had been entrenched in Xuzhou for a long time, so he naturally knew the truth and the truth, and it seemed that he had brought the right person this time.
