Chapter Ninety-Eight: Yuan Shao Sends Troops

Xudu Palace, above the court. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Cao Pi was the same as last time, standing in a position not far from Liu Xie. Without squinting, Yun looked lightly at Dong Cheng, who was holding a rice plant full of rice flowers in his hand and staring at Cao Pi coldly.

As Cao Pi expected, as soon as Liu Xie announced his ascension to the palace, Dong Cheng began to challenge him, first saying that the so-called Xiannong Heavenly Grant was just because the seeds were good, and then began to ask where Cao Pi's seeds came from? Who instructed Cao Pi to take seeds and plant this kind of rice and spicy seeds, and deceived the public.

Too often Yang Biao looked at Cao Pi, with a smile on his face. The same is true for Dr. Zhongsan, and Cao Cao is uncertain, frowning, as if thinking about countermeasures.

"General Dong, you have stolen the rice blessed by the ancestors and cultivated it privately, which has offended the Divine Mansion. Ordinary people who do things that steal the heavens will be punished with one small punishment, punished twice, and punished three times and will die. In this year's harvest season, if it is not for the rice planted by Juntun, the harvest will be at least 30% less, because the anger of the first farmers will make the rice flowers fail and cannot bear fruit. Cao Pi said calmly.

"Nonsense! This kind of seed was not obtained from the military camp at all, but was bought by the general of the chariot cavalry from the Western Regions! Could it be that you want to delay time? Wait for the Juntun rice to mature and resist the merits? I am the foundation of the Han Dynasty, and meritorious deeds must be rewarded and punished. Deceive the king, bewitch the public, no matter what the merit is, it will be difficult to escape death! Wu Shuo stood up and shouted.

"Humph! Is there rice in the Western Regions? Ridiculous! Please send your majesty to send agricultural officials to supervise the paddy fields planted with the blessings of the ancestors outside the military tun and the mintun, if it is a stolen blessed seed, the harvest will be at least 30 percent less, or even 50 percent less, its characteristic is that the rice flower is aborted, which cannot be faked, if General Dong does not dare to supervise the subordinate officials, it is a thief with a weak heart. ”

"Shaft! How dare you..."Dong Cheng was furious, but because of Cao Cao's prestige, he could only point at Cao Pi with Daohua, trembling and speechless.

Dong Cheng was originally Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu's Shu general, but he was just a third-rate and fifth-rate military attache in Dong Zhuo's group, but he was successful in speculation, and now he is the same as the third prince, he is simply a straw bag, and he was a little speechless when he was scolded by Cao Pi.

Yang Biao, who was also holding the rice flower in his hand, did not say a word at this time, looking at Cao Pi's fearless appearance, I am afraid that as he said, the rice planted in the rice field of his Hongnong Manor will be at least thirty percent of the seeds, because last year's Cao Pi's unnatural rice has made them suffer a big loss, and this year Cao Pi will have to wait until the autumn harvest time to see the difference, presumably it is also in the chest.

Although Yang Biao can't figure out why the rice he planted is aborted, seeing Cao Pi's indifferent expression, he knows that this layout has failed again.

Could it be that the Cao family is really blessed by God? Is it the Heavenly Dead Han Room? Yang Biao sighed secretly in his heart, and at the same time wondered if he could shovel the rice in his manor field, so as not to attack Cao Cao when he was down, the Yang family offended the divine mansion and smashed the jobs of the people in the world.

However, Dong Cheng was not as bottomless as Yang Biao, but shouted: "In this case, see you in the autumn harvest season!" Hum! I don't know that General Ben, Dr. Fu's manor in Yuzhou, and Taichang Yang Gong's manor in Hongnong all have this kind of rice, so please ask the subordinate officials to see it at that time! ”

Cao Cao saw that Cao Pi's performance had obviously figured out something, and he stepped forward with a sneer and said: "It's about the reputation of the Che Cavalry General, Taichang, and Zhongsan Doctor, don't send some subordinate officials indiscriminately to finish the matter, please Zhao Situ go to live in the Dong family manor in Hongnong Yuzhou, and see if the rice will be aborted." As for Hongnong Yang's Manor and Fujia Manor, please ask Shaofu Kong Wenju to supervise them, and the grandson of Confucius will not do anything to hide people's eyes and ears for personal gain. ”

Zhao Wen is also from a famous family, his grandfather found the ring through the Han An, Shun, Chong, quality, Heng five dynasties, from the beginning of the Han Shun Emperor is the three dukes, even to do four dynasties of Zaifu, his uncle Zhao Dian Heng Emperor Jiuqing for many years, his brother Zhao Qian to the third duke, this kind of family children are the most important reputation, and now Zhao Wen is also Situ, although there is no real power but everyone respects, to supervise Dong Cheng Manor will not be favoritism. As for Kong Rong, although he leaned east to return to the party, he had the pride of a famous man, so he would not show favoritism, and Cao Cao's hand can be said to be very vicious.

Hearing this, Kong Rong said proudly: "Those who are clear are self-purifying!" The descendants of the Confucian family will not do anything against their will! ”

Liu Xie remained silent and did not say a word until everyone finished arguing and asked Huangmen to announce his retreat from the dynasty, and as for the supervision of the matter, it was handed over to Zhao Wen and Kong Rong to deal with. After the dispersal of the dynasty, Cao Cao and Cao Pi left the palace in a carriage together, and only Cao Cao and Cao Pi father and son were on the carriage, and even Guo Jia was no longer in the car.

Cao Cao asked in the carriage: "Why can Wu'er conclude that Dong Cheng, Fu Wan, and Yang Biao's paddy fields will be aborted." ”

"If you can't contaminate the rope that my father has blessed with sacrificing ancestors, abortion is inevitable, three to fifty percent in the first year, and seventy percent in the second year." Cao Pi replied slowly.

Of course, he would not say that the second generation of hybrid rice is a mixture of male sterile maintainer lines and restorer lines, and the maintainer lines do not have the ability to pollinate autologously, and only through the pollen of the female flowers of the restorer lines to complete the pollination process, so as to produce rice. Without the intervention of external forces such as rope latte art, the success rate of natural pollination relying on wind and insect contamination will not exceed 1%. The probability of hybrid rice breeding and maintaining lines is higher than that of restorer lines, that is to say, Dong Cheng and their paddy fields can only rely on half of the restorer lines in the pollination knots, and all the maintenance lines will be aborted.

"If the Son of Heaven sacrifices to ask for the blessing of the ancestors, will it be useful?" Cao Cao asked cautiously.

"The Son of Heaven is still the supreme in the world, if he sacrifices, it will naturally be useful, if the people who are pulling flowers are cronies, otherwise they will leak out, and this rice will not be planted by my family in the future." Cao Pi will not be stupid enough to say that only your Cao Cao sacrifice is useful, so the suspicious Cao Cao will suspect that as long as the rope is used to pull the flowers, the harvest can be guaranteed, although this kind of action does not have any meaning in the eyes of the ancients, and it is difficult to doubt this aspect, but Cao Pi still chose to be safe.

At the very least, Liu Xie's sacrifice was also effective, allowing Cao Cao to be cautious about blessings with sacrificial ropes.

Cao Cao nodded and said: "Yuan Shao has broken Gongsun Zhan, the north is settled, the spies have come to report, this person seems to have raised troops to the south, and his father wants to lead troops north to Liyang to deter this person, and he will set off in a few days." Xu Du Zhongwen can find Wen Ruo, and Wu can find Brother Wen Lie. Take care of what is blessed. ”

Cao Pi immediately agreed, at this time the carriage stopped, Cao Cao and Cao Pi returned to Cao's mansion together, and the next person came to report that Wang Lang was already waiting in Cao Pi's study, and Cao Pi said goodbye to Cao Cao and returned to the study. As soon as he arrived at the study, Wang Lang smiled and said: "The Huiji people came to write, and Yuan Highway has passed away. ”

Hearing this, Cao Pi's heart was suddenly shocked, no wonder Yuan Shao couldn't wait to beat Cao ****, now that Yuan Shu is dead, the foundation of the Yuan family in Runan is gone, and the Runan Taishou Li Tong, who took over Cao Hong's class, is also a powerful character, without the echo of Yuan Shu in Jiujiang, Runan is attached to the Yuan family and can only be hit and surrendered. Although Yuan Shao is a concubine, he is still a member of the Yuan family after all, and he can't sit idly by morally, so Yuan Shao is in trouble.
