Chapter 3 Convincing Cao Chao

"Brother Yue, why do you think so? Wasn't Jiannu defeated? Even the slave chieftain Taiji was angry with you, and Shengjing was also destroyed, how do you still think that there will still be war in the north, and it will affect Datong? Wu asked Cao Yue puzzled.

"Mother, we are dear people, and we have nothing to hide from you. According to the child's view, even if we win the battle of Songshan this time and temporarily solve the crisis in Liaodong, this will not change the current crisis today. Jiannu's strength has not suffered a major loss, and after they stabilize the rear, they will definitely make a comeback, and maybe they will go south to retaliate this winter. The thieves are getting bigger and bigger, and the imperial court can't exterminate them, so sooner or later they will come to Beijing. And now the hundreds of officials in the court are still keen on fighting for power and profit, fighting openly and secretly, and saying a big rebellious word, today's Ming Dynasty is terminally ill, and if it is not treated with ruthless medicine, there is no way to cure this evil disease. However, no one can get the medicine, and no one knows how to take the medicine, so the danger of the Ming Dynasty is still insoluble, the war in the north will become more and more intense, and Datong will fall into military chaos sooner or later. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Chao paused, and looked at Cao Chao, who was stunned: "Therefore, mother, second brother, I think we can't put our home in Datong anymore, otherwise we will definitely have trouble and have to move to the south and Nanjing." It may be possible to avoid a few years of war, or even ...... there It can give our Cao family more glory there. ”

Seeing that his mother and second brother Cao Chao looked surprised, Cao Yue was also ruthless, and told his understanding of the current situation, as well as his thoughts and judgments that he thought that the Ming Dynasty could only rely on the wealth of the south to reorganize. And surprisingly believe that maybe Beijing will be attacked by thieves or Jiannu in the near future, and the Ming Dynasty will have to move the capital to Nanjing, and the thesis that Nanjing will become the center of the world at that time has been said.

Cao Yue's assertion, as well as the strong advice to move his family to the south, stunned Wu and Cao Chao.

They had never had such thoughts and ideas before, and they couldn't accept Cao Yue's decision at once. In the end, Wu said that she would think about it and discuss it with the other elders in the clan, and then the whole family would get together and discuss it before making a decision.

Seeing his mother say this, Cao Yue had no choice but to agree.

The mother and son talked about things together, and Wu asked Cao Yue to go back to the room to rest first, and she asked the kitchen to prepare for it, and washed the dust for Cao Yue at night. Cao Yue and Cao Chao didn't stay in their mother's room anymore and walked out together.

After leaving his mother's room, Cao Yue asked Cao Chao to come to his room, and the two brothers talked about things again.

Cao Chao naturally agreed, and the two came to Cao Yue's room together.

Cao Yue's room has been cleaned, giving people a new feeling. In order to serve Cao Yue's daily life, the Wu family also arranged for Cao Yue a girl named Xiaoru, a sweet-looking and tall little girl.

Because of the pretense in his heart, Cao Yue didn't pay much attention to this little girl ring with low eyebrows, and after driving her outside, he talked to Cao Chao. Because the age difference with Cao Chao is only two years, the relationship has been very good since childhood, and Cao Yue said things more bluntly in front of Cao Chao.

After explaining all his assertions in detail, Cao Yue told Cao Chao that he hoped that Cao Chao could find a job in Nanjing, so that after accompanying his mother to Nanjing, he could establish himself and find a way to transfer the family's property to Nanjing. In this way, there are fewer worries, and he is in the army in Datong Town, so he doesn't have to avoid anything. If there is a chance in the future, he will definitely strive to go to Nanjing and seek development in Nanjing.

"Second brother, don't hide it, the elite of my Ming army has almost been exhausted in the vicious battle with Jiannu, except for the Eastern Association army led by cousin Changjiao, the other Ming troops are almost all rabble, expecting them to clear out the thieves and defeat Jiannu, it is a fool's dream."

"Third brother, is this really the case?" Cao Chao's face changed again, "What do you mean is that Da Ming is no longer able to return to the sky?" ”

"If there is no change, the younger brother thinks that this is indeed the case," Cao Yue sighed again and again, "The younger brother feels that if you want to prosper the Ming Dynasty, you must rely on the south." The north is now a mess, so our Cao family can no longer stay in Datong, second brother you are the pillar of the Cao family, you can find a way to work in Nanjing, find a good messenger, and wait for the younger brother to make some achievements in Datong, after having a better foundation, also find a way to go to Nanjing. At that time, even if the Ming Dynasty really inevitably declined, we could rely on the foundation laid over the years and make a difference! With the strength of our two brothers, we may be able to break out of the world!"

After listening to Cao Yue's analysis of unusual opinions, Cao Chao finally agreed with what Cao Yue said after thinking about it seriously: "Third brother, what you said is good, the north is indeed in crisis. My father died a few years ago, and my mother supported this big family in Datong alone, and she was a woman who could not cope with the crisis that might suddenly arise, so it was better to go to the south of Taiping, where she could recuperate for a few years and buy some properties at the same time. When the world is peaceful, you can go back to Datong. Tomorrow, together we will persuade my mother that she will agree!"

"That's good!" Cao Yue saw that Cao Chao was persuaded by himself, and he was very happy, so he didn't talk about it anymore, and turned the topic to the current situation of Datong.

Cao Chao has been staying in Datong because he was sick a few years ago, he is relatively familiar with the situation in Datong, Cao Yue also knows that his brother, should help him, many things, he also hopes to ask a reason from Cao Chao's mouth, and get Cao Chao's support.

This afternoon, the two brothers stayed in the house to discuss things, until it was nearly evening, when the Wu family came to call the two of them for dinner!

After Cao Yue arrived in Datong, he only rested at home for one day, and then began to be busy and busy for his duties.

On the day when he was resting at home, he and his second brother Cao Chao finally persuaded his mother Wu to agree to slowly move the family business under the family's name to Nanjing. And Cao Chao is also ready to start looking for a relationship, and plans to go to Nanjing to take up a post.

Cao Chao does not hold any real positions in the DPRK now, mainly because these few are idle at home due to physical reasons, but he has a hereditary Jinyi Wei commander on his head, and if he finds a little relationship, it will definitely not be a problem to go to Nanjing to serve in Jinyi Weizhong.

arrived in Datong, one of the most troublesome things was solved, and Cao Yue's mood was much better.

The next thing, there is no need for him to go to Zhang Luo too much, the Cao family is still quite influential in Datong, there are many people in the clan, and the Wu family's ability is also very good, how to let the people in the clan slowly go to Nanjing, and gradually move the family business, they will come up with a way.

Cao Yue had his own things to do, and after a day of rest at home, early in the morning of the third day of his arrival in Datong, he went out to visit Zhang An, the eunuch of Datong Town.
