Chapter 53: The Son of Heaven Lives in Xuchang! (b)

The Son of Heaven moved to Xuchang, which is a great thing, Xun Yu tried his best to do everything.

The palace where the Son of Heaven lives is in the east of Xuchang, surrounded by mansions prepared for hundreds of officials, although these have not all been built, but looking at that scale, even the Son of Heaven Association is also satisfied.

After all, after such a long period of coercion, a twelve- or thirteen-year-old child has lived a stable life......

However, there are always some guys who don't know things......

Xuchang was originally the county seat, and in the center of the city was naturally the county mansion, which was later known as the Assassin's Mansion, and the surrounding area was the residence of some military generals and strategists under Cao Ying.

Just when the Son of Heaven moved into the palace, Dong Cheng, the general of the chariot cavalry, wrote to say that Cao Ying and Jiang Zhe were not, saying that the Son of Heaven was the co-lord of the world, and Cao Mengde occupied the Thorn Mansion in the center of the city and placed the Son of Heaven in the east with obvious dissent!

Later, Yang Feng, the commander of the cavalry, echoed his words, and he originally advocated for the Son of Heaven to move to Runan Yuan Shu, but Yuan Shu Runan Liu Pi and Gong Du led the Yellow Turban to cause a lot of trouble, and Yuan Shu couldn't be adjusted for a while before Cao Ying connected the Son of Heaven to Xuchang.

Now that he has arrived in Xuchang, he saw the general Dong Cheng of the chariot cavalry, so he echoed it.

Before coming to Xuchang, Dong Cheng had a daughter who followed the Son of Heaven and was named a noble person by the Son of Heaven.

But old plotters such as Taiwei Yang Biao, Huangfu Song and others, all looked at the nose and nose, and looked at this scene lightly without saying a word, and the others even sneered freely in their hearts, of course, what they saw was not Cao Ying's joke!

Cao Ying came all the way, tired of listening to the ridicule of some people with ulterior motives, but when he heard about it again, he was secretly angry in his heart.

Cao Ying has always been upright, and when he saw that those officials didn't look at him, he was ruthless and didn't even participate in the dust washing banquet of the Son of Heaven.

But he had a good excuse......

"You just told them that and I came here?" Jiang Zhe looked helplessly at Cao Ying, who seemed to be himself, and watched him pour tea and drink it by himself.

"Hey!" Cao Ying laughed, looked at the east and pointed out, "What kind of posture did these people look like at the beginning?" was forced to be angry with Li Guo and the two thieves, but now it's good, I, Cao Mengde, have worked hard all the way, there is no praise, and there are a lot of ridicule! ”

Jiang Zhe also had some mind about the scene at the city gate just now, those people put down their work and stood at the city gate for two full hours, but what about those officials? One of them is higher than the sky, what do they owe to you?

What's even more infuriating!

"I've been standing at the gates for two hours!" Jiang Zhe looked angry and withdrew an empty cup in front of Cao Ying.

"......" Cao Yingleng paused, and poured a cup of tea for Jiang Zhe with a wry smile.

Jiang Zhe took it, took a sip and said, "If it weren't for Wen Ruo, I would ...... I ......"

"Shou...... Righteousness? Looking at the expression on Jiang Zhe's face, Cao Ying felt as if the two had changed roles, it stands to reason that he should be angry!

Seeing Cao Ying comforting himself in turn, Jiang Zhe laughed and said, "Meng De, what about joking with you, I, Jiang Zhe, am such a stingy person?" ”

Cao Ying showed a strange expression, and said secretly, Don't you want to repay the debt even with two hundred thousand dollars?

Looking at Jiang Zhe, Cao Ying had no choice but to shake his head, "Shouyi, how is the wedding arranged?" ”

"How?" Jiang Zhe was angry when he talked about it, "It was arranged two months ago!" ”

Cao Ying hurriedly begged for mercy and said, "Don't be angry about righteousness, or Meng De will go back and send another generous gift to your two ladies......"

"Really?" Jiang Zhe asked with slanted eyes.

"I, Cao Mengde, are full of words!"

"That's good!" Jiang Zhe sat down and hurriedly said to Cao Ying, "When I inspected Xuchang before, I saw a few headdresses and bracelets in a jewelry store......

Cao Ying shook his head with a wry smile, and was once again slaughtered by Jiang Zhe.

"Sir, sir!" Xiahoudun's characteristic loud voice came.

Cao Ying put away his playful color, quietly watched Xiahou Dun come from outside the door, and then frowned and said, "Yuan Rang, didn't I let you guard the palace?" Why are you here? ”

"Those people even croaked and listened upset!" Xiahoudun smiled, and then said, "Besides, Mr. marries a concubine, how can I not come!" ”

"It's a wife!" Jiang Zhe was stunned.

"Yes, yes, yes! Take a wife, marry a wife! Xiahoudun hurriedly changed his words.

Cao Ying shook his head with a smile, suddenly heard a few laughs, and turned his head to look at the person outside the door in astonishment, "Zixiao? Sub and? You ......"

"It's not just them, we're here too!" With the words, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai slowly entered.

Cao Ying was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously, "Fengxiao, Zhicai, didn't you ask you to arrange a banquet?" ”

"Hey!" Xi Zhicai sneered, Cao Ying suddenly understood in his heart, and then smiled bitterly, "Okay, it seems that only Wen Ruo and Gongda are there, I don't know what a big crime those officials in the early court want to participate in me!" ”

"Is the lord afraid?" Guo Jia smiled lightly and said.

"I want to go to the poop! I, Cao Mengde, have ...... fears" Halfway through, Cao Ying glanced at Guo Jia and said with a smile, "Fengxiao, don't say anything to punish your heart......"

Guo Jia smiled slightly and kept silent.

"It's come to this, it's useless to talk about it!" Cao Ying sighed, looked at Jiang Zhe and said, "Shouyi, the auspicious time has passed early, why don't you see you being impatient?" ”

"I don't believe that!" Jiang Zhe greeted, "Let's go!" I'm afraid Zhao Ji is in a hurry! ”

"Let's go!" Cao Ying got up and laughed loudly, "There is wine today and drunk today!" Don't worry about the sorrow of Ming! No matter what happens in the future, today I will take advantage of the joy of righteousness, and I will not get drunk or return! ”

"Good one, there is wine today, and drunk today!" Xi Zhicai shook his head and reminisced, opened his eyes and said in surprise, "The Lord is also a wonderful person!" ”

Cao Ying couldn't cry or laugh, laughed and scolded out, and then everyone followed.

It is said that the Son of Heaven set up a banquet in the palace, and all the civil and military officials arrived, looking at the important ministers in the hall, the Son of Heaven stood up with his wine and said, "I am out of danger this time, it all depends on you, I salute you with a glass!" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" All the officials got up to change their gifts, and the hundreds of officials who changed their clothes looked a little like that this time, but unfortunately Jiang Zhe was not there, otherwise there would be a good show to watch!

Suddenly, the Son of Heaven saw a vacant seat in the southwest corner, and was stunned and said, "This ...... These seats are ......"

Xun Yu stood up with a wry smile and arched his hand, "This ...... These are the seats of my lord Cao and his generals and strategists, it may be that my lord does not want to disturb His Majesty and the hundred officials to catch up, so that ...... So much so that ......"

"Humph!" Dong Cheng snorted heavily and said loudly, "What kind of truth is this? The Son of Heaven didn't even come to the banquet? Could it be that Lord Cao is proud of his achievements and does not take the Son of Heaven in his eyes? ”

Xun Yu frowned, and behind him Xun Yu spoke, "Where did the prince say, my lord is a loyal Han family, and when he asked Dong Zhuo, he was alone and almost died; Now that I heard that the Son of Heaven was recruiting, I immediately mobilized soldiers and horses to Luoyang, and all kinds of things are not to mention that my lord thinks of a great man and thinks of Your Majesty! There are no complaints about the hard work all the way, so how can the words come from the mouth of the abbot? ”

"Oh?" Dong Cheng sneered, "So, Cao Mengdeguo is a person who is worried about the society?" But why is it not like this in my eyes? ”

"The words of the national ruler have passed!" Taiwei Yang Biao said lightly, "If Cao Tingshi wasn't worried about Sheji, how could he hear that the Son of Heaven was recruiting and immediately transfer troops to Luoyang?" Compared with Yuan Benchu, who also received the order...... Hum! Besides, today is a wedding banquet for the Son of Heaven to receive the wind and wash the dust, don't be disappointed! ”

Dong Cheng took a deep look at Yang Biao, but unfortunately Yang Biao was a veteran of the two dynasties, and his reputation was far above Dong Cheng......

Qiao Xuan was also at the banquet, and when he saw this, he hurriedly said, "Yes! Today is to catch the wind for the Son of Heaven, we just have to drink! ”

Dong Cheng sat down with a gloomy face and drank to himself.

Although the Son of Heaven Association is young, he also knows right from wrong, but Dong Chengnai is the father of his beloved concubine, so it is not easy to be responsible, so he thought about it and said, "On the way to Xuchang this time, I have been thinking, what is this Xuchang like, don't be too ...... Hehe! ”

Knowing the meaning of the Son of Heaven, all the officials laughed.

Xun Yu glanced at the Son of Heaven with some gratitude, and thanked the Son of Heaven for changing the topic.

Nodding to Xun Yu, the Son of Heaven smiled again, "You Aiqing don't smile, the first time I saw Xuchang, it was like seeing Jingshi, and I sighed in my heart......"

Xun Yu's face changed slightly, knowing that this was the unintentional words of the Son of Heaven, but he also immediately explained, "Your Majesty Mingjian, when my lord Cao Ying conquered the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou earlier, he contained more than 400,000 people there, but unfortunately there were many wars in Yanzhou, and the fields were barren and could not accommodate these people, so most of the 400,000 people were moved here, and Xuchang was originally a county, and it could not accommodate such a number of people. ”

Tianzi Xie nodded, knowing that it was his own gaffe, and then sighed, "It's my gaffe, but I have no malice, I just sigh in my heart, yes, how prosperous the old Jingshi was, but it's a pity that it is now...... Alas! ”

Hearing this, all the officials wept and sighed.

Shaking his head, the Son of Heaven Association asked Xun Yu, "When I entered Xuchang, I saw that the people were peaceful, producing separately, and there was an endless stream of cars and horses, and there were really many talented people under Cao Aiqing!" ”

"This ......" Speaking of this, Xun Yu was suddenly a little embarrassed, because Jiang Zhe knocked the family in the city, and Xun Yu was also implicated, I don't know how many people secretly scolded him.

The Tianzi Association thought that Xun Yu was modest, smiled and looked at Xun Yu behind him, Xun Yu said, "I already know the two big names, could it be that this Xuchang is the work of the two?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Xun Yu smiled bitterly, and Xun Yu was also embarrassed.

Seeing Xun Yu and Xun Yu, the Son of Heaven Association was a little curious and asked, "Could it be that I am wrong?" ”

"This ......" Xun Yu is an honest person after all, and after thinking about it, he said, "This is the merit of my lord's Xuchang Taishou Jiang Zhe!" I don't dare to take the pretext of His Majesty's appreciation! ”

"Jiang Zhe?" The Son of Heaven Xie's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "But Situ Gong's nephew-in-law, Jiang Zhejiang Shouyi, who once held the position of long history in the court?" ”

"Yes...... Yes! Xun Yu looked at the Son of Heaven with some confusion.

"Good, good! I don't want this person to be in Xuchang! The Son of Heaven looked around, and suddenly said suspiciously, "Jiang Zhe has a banquet?" Why can't I see it? ”

"......" Xun Yu opened his mouth and glanced at Xun Yu.

Depend on! Learning Jiang Zhe's tone and scolding in his heart, Xun You had no choice but to step forward and say, "Your Majesty, today is a great joy of righteousness, so much so that ......"

"What a big day!" Dong Cheng said coldly, "Is it important to be able to hold a banquet in time for the Son of Heaven?" ”

Xun You glanced at Dong Cheng lightly, and said in his heart, if Shouyi is here today, he will tell you which one is important!

"It's okay!" The Son of Heaven Xie's face was happy, and then he sighed and said, "It's a pity that Lao Situ was loyal to the country, but he ended up being wiped out, all of which are my faults...... I don't know what Jiang Shouyi married? ”

Xun Yu replied when he heard this, "It's Cai Zhonglang's daughter!" ”

Cai ...... Cai Zhonglang? The surprise on the face of the Tianzi Association was that Yang Biao and the hundred officials were also surprised, when they poisoned Cai Yong, but Situ Wang Yun went in person......

"This kid is a blessing!" Taiwei Yang Biao said with a smile.

Tianzi Xie nodded, he couldn't say anything more about Cai Yong, he was also a lamentable and respectable loyal person, but it was a pity that for a word of praise for Dong Zhuo, he was saddled with this big black cauldron to cover up the face of the royal family.

During the banquet, Qiao Xuan calculated the time when Jiang Zhe got married, and when he saw that everyone was missing, he quietly left the palace under the pretext of changing clothes.

Jiang Zhe got married, how could this old man not go? According to his generation, he is Jiang Zhe's uncle!

Since the Son of Heaven was holding a banquet in the palace, Jiang Zhe naturally didn't make much movement here, but he just hastily performed all kinds of etiquette and got to the point.

What's the main topic?

The main topic is drinking!

At a table of relatives and friends, Cao Ying sat in the first place with a cheeky face, and Xia Houdun, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, and Li Ru sat at the bottom.

The next table is Yu Ban, Le Jin, Li Dian, Dian Wei and the officials of the Assassin Mansion and the Taishou Mansion, because Cao Ying didn't want Jiang Zhe to get another Taishou Mansion out, which seemed very estranged, so the Taishou Mansion and the Assassin Mansion were actually in one place.

The rest of the dozen or so tables are the seats of the merchants of the Chamber of Commerce and the Xuchang family, Jiang Zhe is now the one who holds the lifeblood of their economic resources, and the talent in this guy's chest really makes these businessmen and families love and hate.

The last three tables sat the people of the neighborhood near Jiangfu, and now Jiang Zhe's fame is getting bigger and bigger, and these people living near Jiang Zhe also have light on their faces.

Looking at the gifts sent by the people, Jiang Zhe secretly sighed and shook his head, and asked Lao Wang to write down the value, although the value of those gifts is dispensable in Jiang Zhe's eyes now, it may be enough for those people to eat for a few months, how can Jiang Zhe be embarrassed to accept it?

Among these people, Jiang Zhe only accepts gifts from the family and does not refuse, oh, you have to add Cao Ying, this guy is rich......

How can it be, how can the movement be small? But it's a pity that Jiang Zhe didn't even have a seat, and he ran back and forth with the tables, even if the wine of the three kingdoms was very light, he was also dizzy.

"No, no, no!" Jiang Zhe walked a few steps and almost hit Cao Ying's head with his head, then his face froze, and he grabbed Cao Ying's clothes and didn't let go.

"Hey, hey!" Cao Ying immediately panicked, if he was spit out by Jiang Zhe, he would have no face.

At this moment, Xiu'er Yingying walked out, helped Jiang Zhe and smiled at everyone in the courtyard, and said softly, "The concubine is too strong for the husband, can you spare the husband?" ”

Cao Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Jiang Zhe who was holding Xiu'er in a daze, a smile appeared on his face, and said to Jiang Zhe, "Shouyi, a few days ago, Ying's wife just gave birth to a son, if Shouyi has a son, the two will become husband and wife, if Shouyi has a daughter, marry Ying's youngest son, okay?" ”

Xiu'er suddenly looked shy and gently pushed Jiang Zhe.

"You...... Your son? Jiang Zhe said in a daze, "Your son's name is ...... What is it called? ”

"This, Ye is still thinking about it...... Cao Ying hesitated for a while, and said, "How about calling Pi?" ”

"Pi?" Jiang Zhe burped, "Cao Pi? It's a familiar name......"

"How? Righteousness? Cao Ying looked at Jiang Zhe with a smile, and Cao Ren, Cao Chun, and Cao Hong glanced at each other, and their faces were full of smiles.

"Good, good!" Jiang Zhe said three good words in a row, pointed at Cao Ying and said, "Just for your generous gift, what...... It's up to you! ”

Xiu'er smiled slightly, saluted Cao Ying, and said softly, "Cao Yuanjun, the concubine is drunk, let the concubine help the husband to rest first?" ”

"Mrs. Jiang, please take care of yourself!" Cao Ying bowed his head, and then said to Jiang Zhe, "Shouyi, give birth to a son and a half daughter quickly, don't let the young son of Ye be in a hurry!" ”

Jiang Zhe was so drunk that he couldn't hear what Cao Ying was saying, so he waved his hand and drunkenly let Xiu'er help him into the house.

"Tsk!" Cao Ren said with a smile, "If the son of Mr. is like him, and the daughter of Mr. is like Mrs. Jiang, it is the blessing of Meng De!" ”

Cao Ying laughed, raised his glass and stood up, looked at the night and said, "Singing about wine [, what is life?" For example, the morning dew is said to be bitter. Be generous and unforgettable. How to solve the problem? Only Du Kang! Ladies and gentlemen! Dry! ”

"Wonderful!" Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia were immediately amazed, and everyone except Xiahoudun buried his head in eating meat, the rest were all in admiration.

"Mengde's contribution to this trip is not shallow, how can he be like this! When the float is white! Qiao Xuan heard the noisy life in Jiangfu from afar, and after coming in, he heard this, and then said with a smile.

Cao Ying smiled bitterly and stepped forward to greet Qiao Xuan, "Uncle Shi doesn't know, Meng De is ...... now Alas! ”

Qiao Xuan looked around and muttered in a low voice, "The old man knows about this!" Meng De don't worry, this time you have worked hard, and the Son of Heaven will be rewarded...... Well, what about righteousness? The old man ran out of the banquet of the Son of Heaven! This kid! ”

Cao Ying was happy when he heard this, and said with a smile, "Although Shouyi has a lot of alcohol, it seems to have gone too far, and he was helped in by his wife to rest." ”

"This kid! Don't wait for the old man! Qiao Gong scolded with a smile.

Cao Ying led Qiao Xuan to his table and patted Xiahou Xuan on the back.

"Huh?" Xiahoudun looked at Cao Ying inexplicably and said, "Mengde, what's the matter?" ”

"......" Cao Ying looked helpless, but fortunately, Cao Ren next to him pulled Xiahoudun to his side, and finally left a place for Qiao Xuan.

"I thought Uncle Shi had no time to come today!" Cao Ying smiled and called Lao Wang and asked him to send another letter of chopsticks.

Qiao Xuan sat down and said as if mocking, as if narrating, "The old man just went...... It's a pity ......"

Cao Ying suddenly realized, and said with some anger in his heart, "When the two thieves were in trouble in the morning, there were no people in the figure, but now they are one by one, hum!" ”

"Mengde, don't worry!" Qiao Xuan smiled faintly and said, "If you are the only one who can fight today, if you want to restore the prestige of the old Han Dynasty, you must serve the Son of Heaven to order you not to be subordinate!" Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, although you are friends in the old days, you will have to have some fights in the future! ”

"Obey the Son of Heaven to order not to obey?" Cao Ying frowned and muttered, but what he was thinking about was what Jiang Zhe said that time, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes!

I, Cao Mengde, am not a person to be bullied! Don't push me!
