The greater Cao Zhang's advantage, the happier Cao Peng is. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Initially, Cao Peng hoped to use Cao Chong's hand to realize his ideals. But later, he found out that although Cao Chong was smart, he was only a little smart, and he was not a big weapon. In contrast, Cao Chang has many shortcomings.

He is like a blazing fire, and he is quick to anger; He is very competitive and ruthless, and he doesn't like to read. Moreover, Cao Zhang is not as smart as Cao Chong, and he does not have Cao Chong's ability to change in one step and three strategies. But he's magnificent, ambitious, bold, and can tolerate things. Although he is not as smart as Cao Chong, he knows how to be motivated and can humbly seek advice. Most importantly, he values family affection...... At this point, Cao Zhang inherited Cao Cao's character. is very good to his brothers, if he doesn't violate his bottom line, he can laugh it off.

Only such a person can realize Cao Peng's ideals.

What's more, Cao Peng and Cao Zhang, as early as when he returned home from the northwest with Cao Peng, they were inseparable. Cao Zhang's concubine is the younger sister of Zhen Mi of Cao Peng's concubine. There is such a relationship, which is enough to ensure Cao Peng's interests...... The more hopeful Cao Zhang is, the better it will be for Cao Peng. Years of experience have given Cao Zhang enough political capital. The Northern Expedition to Karasuma knocked on the Xiongnu and made enough military achievements.

Moreover, he is now apprenticed to Xun Yue, and he has the support of a strong clan.

The Sima family of Wenxian County has an excellent relationship with Mrs. Bian. At the end of last year, Sima Fang, the father of Sima Lang and Sima Yi, came to Yecheng and participated in a banquet held by Cao Cao. According to Cao Zhang's own confession, he went to Jingnan to serve as the governor of Daxing Mansion this time, and the team he was equipped with Sima Lang and Xun Shi.

Sima Lang doesn't need to be introduced, Sima Yi's brother.

And Xun Shi is Xun Yu's second son.

Xun Yu's eldest son, Xun Ji, died in the early years of Jian'an. Now that Xun Shi is an adult, he naturally has to make arrangements.

With these two people, plus Xu You, Cao Zhang's team has begun to take shape.

As long as he doesn't have any major problems in the future, he is most likely to be his successor...... However, Cao Zhang is not restless, and there is a very serious problem: Cao Zhang still has no heirs.

He has been married for many years, and his eldest wife is the daughter of Sun He, which is a political marriage.

But the concubine room was found by Cao Zhang himself, that is, Zhen Mi's sister. The two have been married for five years, but Cao Zhang only has two daughters and no sons. There is a continuity in the question of this heir. In other words, the issue of heirs is very crucial...... There are not a few people who have trouble on this issue in later generations. Fortunately, Cao Zhang is still young, so there is no need to rush for a while......

That night, Cao Peng stayed in Zhen Mi's room overnight.

Zhen Mi, who is nearly thirty years old, still maintains an attractive charm.

The figure is delicate and exquisite, concave and convex.

Xiaoman's waist is full of hand, very soft...... Every time Cao Peng, he can get a high degree of pleasure on Zhen Mi. This night, of course, was no exception. The two of them were entangled in death, and after the ** stopped, Zhen Mi was like a kitten, curled up in Cao Peng's arms, and drew a circle on Cao Peng's chest with her slender and slender jade fingers.

is already a mother of two children, but whenever Zhen Mi does this, she always looks like a girl who is new to life.

Cao Peng half-leaned on the head of the bed, a little tired.

But I heard Zhen Mi suddenly say: "Junhou, today's concubine is a little sister, and she also came with the son." ”

"yes, I know."

When Cao Zhang and his wife came, Cao Peng naturally knew it.

This is also normal, Zhen Mi's sister will naturally look for Zhen Mi when she comes over. It's just that Zhen Mi suddenly mentioned that there must be something. So Cao Peng asked curiously: "What, what did the little sister say?" ”

"She was depressed and said she had no children under her knees."

"What's the matter, how old is Ziwen, he can always be born, why worry."

"But ......"

"What's wrong?"

Zhen Mi hesitated for a moment, plucked up the courage to say: "Little sister is worried that if she keeps doing this, there will be an accident."

Yesterday Madame called her and told her about it.

Listening to the lady's meaning, she wants to add a few more rooms for the prince. The little sister was a little worried, afraid of losing the favor of the son. Shizi didn't have any ideas, but the little sister ...... She always felt uneasy. ”

Madame is Mrs. Bian.

It seems that Mrs. Bian is also aware of Cao Zhang's problem, so she wants to take a concubine for Cao Zhang.

Cao Peng scratched his head, put on his clothes and walked out of bed.

I sat down on the brocade stool next to him, took a glass of water, and drank some water.

"Little sister, what do you mean?"

"Little sister thinks, follow one."

"Huh?"

Cao Peng was taken aback and looked at Zhen Mi in surprise, "Little sister and Ziwen are still young and have a lot of time to give birth, why are they in such a hurry?" She doesn't want to find you...... Let's go to Rui. ”

Zhen Mi is on her knees, a son and a daughter.

Zhen Rong himself has two daughters, so naturally it is impossible for him to have a stepdaughter, but only to succeed Cao Rui.

Cao Rui will be five years old now.

He was a very intelligent child, and he was very healthy.

Cao Peng also likes this child very much, including Cao Ji and his wife, as well as Cao Nan, who also loves Cao Rui.

It is impossible for Zhen Rong to step on other people's children, he can only find Zhen Mi.

It's just that Cao Peng doesn't understand a little, why is Zhen Rong so anxious and nervous?

Zhen Mi also sat up and draped a robe over the petite and delicate body, the two plump masses looming.

"It's the body of the king......"

"The king's body, does it have anything to do with this?"

Xiaomei said that the king's body is not as good as day by day, and it seems to be much worse than at the beginning. Xiaomei felt that maybe in the next year or two, the king would definitely decide the candidate for the son. Ziwen is the most promising, but if he can't have an heir by his side earlier, he will inevitably lose his advantage. That's why the little sister ......"

Cao Peng closed his eyes.

Historically, Cao Cao should have had ten years to live.

But now, it seems that his body bones are indeed a little bad. If it is really as Zhen Rong said, then Cao Cao is indeed very likely to establish an heir candidate in the next few years. And Cao Zhang's current advantage is indeed dominant. First of all, he is a general in the five senses, and he has been counted into the center; Secondly, he is the general of Zhennan and the governor of Daxingfu, which can be described as very powerful. With Cao Zhang's prestige, it is indeed possible.

But if Cao Zhang has no heirs, it is inevitable that he will fall into the tongue.

"What do you think?

Also, if Ziwen has a child in the future, what will Xiao Rui do? It's impossible, let's come back. ”

Zhen Mi couldn't help but be silent!

This is indeed a problem, a question that has to be considered.

After a while, she said softly: "Xiaomei said that if this is the case in the future, she guarantees that Xiaorui will have a future for the marquis." Besides, it is impossible for the prince to treat Xiao Rui badly, there is still a prince here......"

Cao Zhang will indeed not treat Cao Rui badly, and will even cherish it even more.

But the key is that Cao Peng is reluctant, very reluctant!

Even if it is passed on to Cao Zhang, or surnamed Cao, he will also feel a little reluctant. After all, it's your own flesh and blood, how can you ...... However, looking at Zhen Mi's meaning, it seems that he intends to help, otherwise he would not discuss it with himself.

He sat down on the edge of the bed and held Zhen Mi in his arms.

"Are you really willing?"

"Naturally...... But the little sister begged bitterly, and I couldn't bear to see her lose her favor. ”

"I'll think about it.

And this matter is not something we can decide, we need the king's permission before it can be carried out. In this way, you discuss with your little sister in private, don't be too ostentatious. From tomorrow onwards, let Rui read with me. ”

"Hmm!"

Zhen Mi fell asleep.

But Cao Peng was not tired at all.

He walked out of the room, stood on the porch, looked at the flowers in the courtyard, and suddenly burst into laughter.

Cao Rui, is it possible to become Cao Wei's heir?

In history, Cao Pi's son was called Cao Rui, and he also became the emperor. Could it be that his own son is the reincarnation of Cao Rui, destined to become an emperor? Thinking about it, I also think it is unlikely, but it makes Cao Peng have a little more expectations. If this is the case, Cao Rui's growth must be protected no matter what.

When I think about it, I seem to become ...... It's getting more and more shameless!

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

The next day, Cao Peng woke up.

It's like someone has nothing to do, and let people find Cao Rui.

He hugged Cao Rui and played in the garden, only to be happy that Cao Rui laughed happily all day long, holding Cao Peng's hand, and kept calling 'Daddy, Daddy'. Cao Peng had an impulse to refuse Zhen Rong's request. This is his own son, if he really succeeds, won't he call someone else's father?

This also made Cao Peng more reluctant.

"Childe, there are two fathers and sons outside the house, saying that they are entrusted by the old son, and they are here to ask to see them."

"The deceased?"

Cao Peng was holding Cao Rui reading in the study.

After playing for a while, Cao Rui was also sleepy, and he fell asleep in Cao Peng's arms.

Hearing that someone asked to see him, Cao Peng was stunned for a moment, hugged Cao Rui and said, "Invite them to the living room to rest, and I'll go over immediately." ”

"Whoa!"

Cao Peng immediately carried Cao Rui to the bedroom, put him on the bed, and then covered the quilt.

Tell the servant girl to take care of her life.

Then he changed his clothes and went straight to the living room.

"Villain, meet Childe."

The person who came was about 180 tall, burly and majestic, and dignified.

Looking at the age, about thirty years old, there is a child next to him, about ** years old, tiger head, like a little tiger, a pair of big black eyes, looking around curiously.

Judging by the clothes, it is not a wealthy family.

Cao Peng felt that these two people were very strange, so he arched his hand and said, "Who is the strong man entrusted by here?" ”

Wu Cang carefully took out the letter from his bosom and presented it with both hands.

Cao Peng took the letter, but saw that in addition to the five words 'Hou Cao of Xinwu Township', there was also a word 'Xun' written in the corner.

Lu Xun?

Cao Peng's heart moved, and he hurriedly opened it and read it carefully.

Over the years, the contact between Cao Peng and Lu Xun has never been interrupted. However, most of them are used as hubs and never communicate directly. Lu Mao's service for Cao Wei is not known to too many people. Lu Xun declared to the outside world that Lu Mao was studying abroad and had not returned home for many years. As a result, people know that Lu Mao is outside, but they don't have too many ideas. And Lu Xun directly contacted Cao Peng, but it was the first time.

At the beginning, it was a few polite words.

And then that's the point...... This Wu Cang, a native of Wucheng, Wu County, has courage and is good at reading, but he was born in a poor family and has never been taken seriously. Originally, Lu Xun and Wu Cang didn't have much contact, but Sun He discovered this person first. During a casual chat, Sun He and Shi Wu Jun guarded Gu Yong too much, and when they talked about Wu Cang, Gu Yong immediately fell in love. After thinking about it repeatedly, Gu Yong introduced Wu Cang to Lu Xun.

But Lu Xun thought that it would be difficult for Wu Cang to stay in Jiangdong after all.

Cause?

Very simple!

Wu Cang has a loyal and upright personality, and he is an upright person.

It is precisely this character that makes him only thirty years old, still just a small official, and even his wife is unwilling to follow him to the end, abandoning him and running away...... I don't have a backstage and I don't have any background.

If Lu Xun wants to use it, it will inevitably be subject to a lot of restrictions.

So Lu Xun thought of Cao Peng, and after discussing it with Wu Cang, he decided to recommend Wu Cang to Cao Peng's door. Wu Cang also knows that he has no foundation in Jiangdong, and it is not easy to rise.

As for Sun He......

Whether it's Gu Yong or Lu Xun, they won't tell Wu Cang.

After thinking twice, Wu Cang decided to go north to join Cao Peng. I have long heard of Cao Peng's name, and I also know that Cao Peng employs people, never sticking to small sections, maybe he can make a difference. So he took his son and set out for a long journey.

Originally, he wanted to go to Chang'an, but he didn't want to go to Chang'an, so he knew that Cao Peng had already returned to Yecheng.

So, I came all the way from Chang'an.

On the way, fortunately, he said that he was looking for Cao Peng, so he was taken care of a lot.

At least when he was in Chang'an, he heard that Wu Cang was going to find Cao Peng, Chen Qun didn't say a word, and funded Wu Cang with 10,000 yuan, that is, ten times on the road. Some people may say that Chen Qun gave too much...... There is no way, Chen Qun and Cao Peng have a close relationship, not to mention that the two families still have business cooperation. If you give less, you will see Cao Peng in the future, and you will have to be ridiculed. Chen Qun still has to take care of this face.

But this twist and turn is a full half a year.

Wu Cang set out from Wu County, first to Guiyang, then to Chang'an, and finally to Yecheng, and he was also a servant of the dust.

Wu Zong?

Cao Peng can't remember whether this person is mentioned in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Anyway, in his memory, he didn't have the slightest impression. But this is the person recommended by Lu Xun...... Do you think Lu Xun would recommend a useless person to come over? After reading the letter, he threw it into the brazier beside him.

"Childe, you are ......"

In my heart, I suddenly felt hopeless.

Could it be that Gongzi Cao is unwilling to take in my father and son?

"Kong Xiu, since you are here, you can stay in peace.

You have come all the way to me, and I will not treat you badly. However, you have to remember that you found it yourself, and there was no one to recommend it. ”

I was stunned for a moment, and then I understood.

Cao Peng, this is not to let anyone know about his relationship with Lu Xun.

Doesn't it mean that you have a place?

He was overjoyed, and hurriedly arched his hand and said, "The villain knows." ”

"Kong Xiu, my Wuxiang Hou Mansion, there are no big rules.

You just have to remember that I will not do anyone any wrong...... In this way, first live in the Hou Mansion and start from the Zhonglang. As for the monthly salary, temporarily receive thirty hundreds, if it is not enough, tell me again.

In a moment, I'll have someone measure your body so I can make some proper clothes.

Just stay in peace and familiarize yourself with the situation first. It's a pity that Brother Derun is not here, otherwise you can have more fellow countrymen and have someone to talk to. So, familiarize yourself with the accent as soon as possible so that you don't have any deviations in the future.

By the way, is this Ling Lang? What's your name and how old is it? ”

Cao Peng looked curiously at the boy who was behind Wu Cang, staring at the boy who was looking at him curiously with a pair of big black eyes.

When Wu Cang heard this, he hurriedly replied: "This is the dog, named Wu Yan, who is seven years old this year!" ”

I'm only seven years old!

But it looks very powerful.

Cao Peng couldn't help laughing, squatted down, and stretched out his hand towards Wu Yan, "Come, come to my uncle's side." ”

Wu Yan seemed a little shy, and looked up at his father Wu Cang.

"Go, Childe called you."

Wu Yan timidly walked to Cao Peng's side, but saw Cao Peng stretch out his hand and rub his head melon seeds.

"Are you hungry?"

"Hmm!"

Gohiko nodded vigorously.

"Okay, I'll take you to eat something delicious in a while."

Cao Peng stood up and said to Wu Cang: "Ling Lang is seven years old, the same age as my son, why don't you let him follow my son in the future?" ”

This is another happy event!

I was excited, and I didn't know what to do.

It's just that he misunderstood one thing. What Cao Peng asked Wu Yan to follow was not Cao Yang, but was ready to ask him to follow Cao Rui.

This kid has a tiger head and a tiger brain, and he also looks shrewd.

If Cao Rui really wants to pass on to Cao Zhang in the future, there must always be a partner by his side. Cao Peng had already thought about it and asked Fu Tong to go over together. But Fu Yan's age is about the same as Cao Rui, and there must always be someone who can be protected.

In contrast, Jiang Wei is obviously not suitable.

But I didn't expect Wuyan to appear......

Stay and check it first, if it is really reliable, let him follow Cao Rui and protect Cao Rui's safety. At the same time, it can also make me feel more at ease. In short, from now on, we must prepare for Cao Rui.

Anyway, he must not be wronged in the slightest.

Wu Cang left happily, but Cao Peng was still preoccupied.

"Shiyuan...... I remember Han De's four children, and now they are a little old. ”

Han De is now serving as a lieutenant general in Hexi County, which can be regarded as a success. Hearing Cao Peng's inquiry, Pang Tong thought for a while and replied, "Zishan's eldest son, Han Ying, will be nine years old today, and his second son, Han Yao, will also be eight years old...... The third son, Han Qiong, and the youngest son, Han Qi, were born from compatriots, and Fang was six years old. Now the family has settled in Hongshui County. ”

"Tell Zishan to ask him to send a few sons over to be my son's company."

Pang Tong was stunned!

He didn't understand why Cao Peng had to make such an arrangement.

But since Cao Peng gave the order, he naturally acted according to the order. So he nodded and turned to leave.

Back in the bedroom, Cao Rui was still asleep.

Cao Peng sat down beside him and reached out to brush his face gently.

Baby, no matter what the future holds, I'm your father! Therefore, I will let you live happily no matter what, and I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance.

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

Cao Zhang left Yecheng and went to Wuling to take up his post.

And the succession is also quietly going on, and Cao Zhang has no objection to this.

As for Mrs. Bian, she also agreed to this matter. But find the right opportunity to explain to Cao Cao.

Cao Rui is still growing up happily in the Marquis Mansion of Wuxiang.

But by his side, there is another partner, that is, the son of Wu Zong, Wu Yan.

Time passes quietly.

In the blink of an eye, it was March, and Cao Cao issued an edict to open the capital of the five armies in Zhuo County to supervise the implementation of the government and military system.

The five armies are all under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they do not obey anyone's dispatch except Cao Cao.

Its status is above the Metropolitan Governor, and it is on a par with the Governor of the Prefecture. However, the Protectorate of the Five Armed Forces was only responsible for the military and was not allowed to meddle in local affairs. This is also a decision made by Cao Cao after consulting with the state pastors.

At the same time, the government military system was officially implemented in Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Caozhou.

Within two years, the three states need to establish 400 military governments. At the same time as the government army was promoted, it also began to reduce the redundant local army in order to strengthen local production.

Although he could not meddle in local affairs, the five armies all protected the government, but they represented Cao Cao's interests.

For a time, countless people hoped to take over the capital of the five armies, but on the tenth day of the first month of March, Cao Cao issued an edict again: Cao Peng, the marquis of Xinwu Township, has meritorious service in the northwest, worships the general of the chariot and rides, and the governor of the five armies protects the mansion.

Set off on the same day and rush to Zhuo County to take up his post.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused an uproar......

This appointment, unexpected, seems to be reasonable.

At the age of less than thirty, he became the general of the cavalry, above Jiuqing, and under the three dukes, since the Han Dynasty, I am afraid that only the hussar general Huo Qubing did it. At the beginning, everyone was speculating about who would be the first Grand Protector of the Five Armies. Some people also thought of Cao Peng, but they felt that although Cao Peng had outstanding achievements and enough fame, he was still a little too young after all.

But apart from Cao Peng, who is qualified to take over the Protectorate of the Five Armies?

I'm afraid that including Cao Hong Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren Xiahou Yuan, and even Cao Chun, they can't be convinced.

The government military system was first proposed by Cao Peng and implemented in Hexi County, with outstanding results.

And Cao Peng himself has close ties with various families in the DPRK and China. Don't use military force, there are more or less interests involved. At least when Cao Cao decided to appoint Cao Peng as the protector of the five armies, none of the generals in the Cao Wei group stood up to oppose it, and even many people raised their hands in favor.

As for Wenchen, he didn't jump out to accuse.

In this, there is also the factor of Cao Peng's 'project contracting'.

After Cao Hong proposed to Cao Cao to contract the expansion of the Chang'an project, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan also expressed their willingness to contract the huge project of repairing the three official roads from Yuzhou to Jingzhou. Xun Yu asked his own children to gather the displaced people, and joined forces with Zhong Xuan, Chen Qun and Hedong Weiqi to take over the project of repairing Luoyang.

The profits generated by each project amounted to hundreds of millions of dollars.

And the initiator of all the projects is precisely Cao Peng......

Such a huge benefit is enough to make many people give up their grievances. For Cao Cao, the simultaneous start of several projects not only did not delay the agricultural time, but also added hundreds of thousands of people to his register.

It's also extraordinary!

In short, Cao Peng was appointed as the protector of the five armies, and it was almost unanimously approved.

When the edict was issued, the Marquis of Wuxiang immediately took action...... Huang Yueying, Sun Shangxiang and Cai Yan were all pregnant one after another and wanted to return to Xingyang to recuperate. Therefore, after discussion, it was decided that Guo Huan and Zhen Mi would accompany Cao Peng to Zhuo County and take care of Cao Peng's life. At the same time, Cao Yang and Jiang Wei will also accompany them to Zhuojun for training. But in September, they will return to Xingyang to start their studies.

Cao Rui will also accompany Cao Peng to Zhuojun because Cao Peng hopes to stay with his son for a few more days.

In this way, he was envious of Cao Wan and Cao Yun's children.

But one was a daughter, and the other was too young, so she had to be reluctant to follow her mother to Xingyang.

In this way, the Wuxiang Marquis Mansion was empty, and Cao Ji sent people to take care of it.

After everything was arranged, Cao Peng was also ready to set off.

Just three days before his departure, Cao Cao suddenly sent Yue to come, "The king asked the prince with his slave and maid, how is the matter going?" ”

"What's the matter?"

Yue Pan smiled mysteriously and handed a letter to Cao Peng.

In the letter, there are only seven words: 'When will you lock Da Qiao'?

"This ......"

Cao Peng was stunned all of a sudden!

Lao Cao's worries are too much.

"The king said that when Sun Gongzi goes out alone, he always has to be taken care of.

Therefore, the king's intention is to invite Mrs. Qiao to accompany him, and he can also take proper care of Sun Gongzi.

If the prince is not easy to speak, the king can send someone to discuss with Mrs. Qiao. ”

Nima, step by step!

It seems that Lao Cao is iron-hearted and wants to match Cao Peng and Da Qiao. I don't know what his old man thinks. However, after Cao Peng heard what Yue said, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and nodded helplessly.

Is this a messy mandarin duck spectrum?
