Chapter 57: The Wine Banquet
Cao Ming has now ruled out Tao Qian's suspicion, it seems that he really does not dare to attack the horse convoy, and now the remaining threat comes from his men.
"Then let's do what Master Tao wants!"
Cao Ming thought to himself that Tao Qian had been waiting for a long time, and he was afraid that it would embarrass him if he refused categorically, and when the time came, he would play it in a rage, and the whole convoy would not have to get in, after all, now all the state ministers are warlord autonomous, and there are a few people who can be truly loyal to the royal family.
"Thank you, Niang!" Tao Qian's heart blossomed, as long as the queen mother was served, it would not be difficult to save Xuzhou.
Cao Song saw that Cao Ming agreed to Tao Qian, and immediately ordered the motorcade to enter the city, and drove all the way to the county yamen before stopping.
Cao Ming also felt helpless about Cao Song's love of money, the car loaded with jewelry was not covered with a cloth, and he had to let people know that it was all money, this is not a typical death to save face, and when the time comes, it is not for the thieves to kill people and seize treasures, if something really happens, you don't even have a place to cry.
Tao Qian bowed his hand and said: "Lord Cao's family assets are really strong, even if there is any mistake on the road, it is better for the official to send some people to escort him." ”
As soon as Cao Ming heard that something was wrong, he wanted to refuse the other party's kindness on the spot, but once Tao Qian knew the truth, I was afraid that it would cause more unnecessary trouble, after all, Xuzhou was now in charge of Tao Qian, and he privately sent troops into his territory, which was very easy to cause misunderstanding among the other party.
"Then thank you Tao-sama!" Cao Song took the first step to speak, he didn't expect that the other party would be willing to send troops to protect it, and now the horse convoy will be much safer.
"Grandfather, I'm afraid this is not right!" Cao Ming gave the other party a look, but unfortunately the other party ignored it, didn't he say that he had something to discuss together, why did he forget about it as soon as he saw the benefits.
Cao Song smiled and said: "This is Lord Tao's good intentions, we can't refuse him, and besides, it is definitely safer to have a soldier on the road to protect us than to go by ourselves." ”
Cao Ming really wanted to wake up this greedy old man with a punch, whose bandit said on his face that he was a bandit, not to mention that the backgrounds of the officers and soldiers are uneven, and there are some roosters and dog thieves who are mixed in the middle of the soldiers.
Cao Ming was slightly angry and said: "I don't want to participate in this banquet, you can drink and eat as you like, I don't have much appetite now." ”
Tao Qian thought to himself that Niangniang was not okay just now, why did she say in a blink of an eye that she had no appetite, and this banquet could not be carried out without the most important people, if she insisted on asking the other party to participate in the banquet, it would be easy to cause Niangniang's dissatisfaction with herself.
Thinking of this, Tao Qian said: "If Niangniang is unwell, she can rest in the back of the hall, where there is an upper room." ”
Cao Ming nodded and said, "Then find someone to lead the way, my body is really not very comfortable, if you have a private matter, you can talk about it now." ”
Tao Qian didn't play dumb riddles, and said straightforwardly: "Qi Yu Niangniang, Weichen just wants to ask about this Xuzhou, if he Cao Cao dares to attack Xuzhou again, then my Xuzhou will really not be guaranteed." ”
Cao Ming understood: "As a state pastor, Lord Tao loves the people like a son, and he is also a good official in the mouth of the people of Xuzhou, so I will discuss with Cao Zhoumu and tell him not to cause trouble anymore." ”
"Thank you so much!" Tao Qian thinks that there is really a drama in this matter, and the queen mother has already said that she will take care of this matter, so she will not repay the debt when the time comes.
Cao Ming thought that if Cao Cao was allowed to take Xuzhou, it would inevitably be another bloody storm, which would be very unfavorable to his future trend, and the only way was to receive it peacefully.
Tao Qian can't live too long at his age, and the position of the state pastor will be vacated sooner or later, and Cao Ming only needs to use the convenience of his identity to install a henchman in Xuzhou.
Cao Ming thought about it and was afraid that he would encounter danger on the way, and then the plan would be completely ruined, after all, Cao Cao's temperament was known to him, and no one would admit it if he was ruthless.
The official of the county government led Cao Ming into the upper room, which was originally a place for the county magistrate to rest in his spare time, and now he just made room for Cao Ming to rest.
Cao Ming thought to herself that the banquet would take an hour, and she could hurry up and sleep for a while, and the tiring journey was also boring.
After the official went out, Cao Ming made the bed, and then lay down and had a sweet dream.
Cao Ming dreamed that she was in the ice and snow, and she was struggling to find a place to keep warm, and just when she was about to give up, a hot spring pool suddenly appeared in front of her.
Cao Ming jumped in without having time to think about it, and a wave of warmth quickly invaded her brain, accompanied by an inexplicable sense of comfort, making people feel that their bodies had ascended to immortality.
It didn't take long for the hot spring to disappear, and Cao Ming slowly opened her eyelids, why did she feel that her body would be cold.
"Who are you?" Cao Ming suddenly found a woman sitting next to the bed, and the woman was barebacked, could it be that something strange had happened just now.
The woman smiled and said, "My sister finally woke up, we had a good time just now, I can't see that you are still a virgin, and the sound is quite good." ”
Cao Ming suddenly realized something, sat up and found that her clothes were gone, and it turned out that she had met a female hooligan.
"Get out!" Cao Ming had a strong threat in her eyes, she was actually played by a lesbian just now, this is a heavily guarded county yahoutang, how did she get in.
The woman pinched her waist and said angrily: "Aren't you the maid that Wei'er bought, how can you be so unruly, someone came to drag me out and beat me." ”
"Smack!" Cao Ming raised her hand to slap her, and the woman who hit her was crying for her father and mother, this time the woman was finally honest.
Cao Ming put on her clothes and questioned the woman: "You actually took advantage of the fact that I was asleep to do things that only men and women can do to me, saying who are you?" ”
The woman covered her face and said, "The concubine is Lord Tao's love Ji Luo, because Lord Tao's physical condition is not good, and the concubine does not dare to violate the laws of the Han Dynasty, so she can only buy some young women to comfort." ”
When Cao Ming heard this, he realized that this Luo didn't dare to steal men, but instead found some young girls to comfort him.
Cao Ming felt that there was nothing abnormal in her body, it seemed that the other party didn't play too much, and she almost succeeded.
"Knock knock!" There was a knock on the door outside the house, and it turned out to be an official messenger to remind Cao Ming, saying that the banquet was now over.
Only then did Luo Shi know Cao Ming's identity, and she immediately cried, she thought that she was really dead.
Cao Ming said in a threatening tone: "I hope you can rot in your stomach in this matter, otherwise I don't mind letting you disappear into the world completely, there are hundreds of people who die at my hands, let alone hundreds, and the decision is in your own hands." ”
Luo was so frightened that he didn't dare to raise his head: "The slut remembers the instructions of the mother, and will never mention it to the second person, if the news leaks, let the mother punish her." ”
Cao Ming's threatening words are said, and the rest can only depend on her performance, if she can't control her mouth, then she really dislikes herself for living a long life.
Cao Ming followed the official messenger to the gate of the county office, and at this time the convoy was ready, and the only change was that there were three hundred more armor soldiers.
Cao Song's face was flushed, and he was carried into the carriage by someone, but fortunately, the rest of the people were quite sober.
Cao Ming saw that a partial general was in charge of commanding, and immediately sent someone to call the partial general, she had something to ask about this partial general.
The general called the servant over, and Cao Ming asked, "What's your name, what did you do before joining the army?" ”
The partial general arched his hand and replied: "If you go back to Niangniang, the villain is Zhang Min, the partial general of Master Tao, who was farming at home before joining the army. ”
Cao Ming thought to herself that you acted well, if you didn't know the truth, you might really be blinded by you.
Cao Ming said tentatively: "I heard that you participated in the Yellow Turban Uprising, I don't know if this is true or false?" ”
Zhang Min was surprised in her heart, how could the queen know about this, could it be that someone had leaked it to her.
Zhang Min stabilized his emotions and said: "Of course it's fake, how can the villain rebel against the imperial court, this must be someone else's deliberate rumor." ”
"Then I'll be relieved, let's go!" Cao Ming knew that now was not the time, so he had to seize his current situation, otherwise he would not admit it.
Tao Qian walked out of the county government at this time: "If Niangniang has anything to tell Weichen, Weichen must do it." ”
Cao Ming thought for a while and said, "I really don't have anything to ask yet, if you want, just leave Luo's family and let her go back to her parents' house to live her own life." ”
Tao Qian understood what was going on in his heart, he had heard some things about Luo, but he didn't take it to heart, and Luo's was very likely to be disrespectful to Cao Ming.
Tao Qian nodded and said: "That has angered Niangniang, Weichen must have given her a leave of absence, do you want to let her disappear completely." ”
Cao Ming smiled and said, "It seems that you know her very well who she is, since you are willing to let her disappear, then do it according to your wishes." ”
Cao Ming had to ruthlessly eliminate Luo, although she promised that she would not say it, but it was difficult to say after a long time.
After Tao Qian sent Cao Ming out of the city, he immediately returned to the county government with a soldier, and happened to meet Luo Shi who was packing up her things, and it seemed that she already knew about it.
Luo knelt down and said: "Lord, you can't do this, the mother said that you want to let go of the concubine, please let the concubine live!" ”
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Tao Qian's eyes: "Niang Niang is a magnanimous person, of course she won't want you to be a slut, but I can't spare you, the lord and I can't spare you, someone will dispose of her, and throw her to the mass grave outside the city after the incident." ”
"No!" The two armorers drew their swords and rushed over, easily catching the panicked Roche, and then stabbed her twice into the abdomen to see the king of Hades.
"Alas!" Tao Qian's heart was a little reluctant, after all, Luo had been with him for several years, and this relationship was still a little bit.
