Chapter 13, Shen Xiao is the father
According to Shi Xun's thoughts, after Cao Chong learned that the conspiracy was exposed, it was best to come directly to Cao Cao to ask for guilt, or he could confess to Xiao Ji, saying that I was not suitable for listening to such nonsense, and now I regret it. Cao Cao has always loved Cao Chong, but this time when he heard that Cao Chong was involved, he didn't call him over to reprimand him immediately, and even asked himself what an outsider should do, indicating that he actually subconsciously wanted to forgive Cao Chong. So as long as Cao Chong has a correct attitude, he can use his youth and ignorance as an excuse to escape punishment.
And in this way, it is convenient for Cao Cao to directly intervene in the Liyang Mansion and clean up the discipline. But since he wants to forgive Cao Chong, it is naturally impossible to declare the crime of Lu Ji, just find an excuse, at most, he will be expelled and exiled, and Xiao Yuantu can save his life.
It's just that if Xun knew about the fate of the Wei Gang monk, it is estimated that the idea would not be so optimistic......
Cao Chong has three ways to go, taking the initiative to ask for guilt is the best policy, and quickly escaping is the middle policy. Of course, Shixun hopes that Cao Chong will use the best strategy or the middle strategy, but what if he really adopts the lower strategy? Do you need to secretly remind Xiao Ji first?
Or directly remind Cao Chong and persuade him to use the best or middle strategy, which not only saves Xiao Ji's life, but also does not damage Cao Xiaoxiang's status in Cao Cao's mind too much. But what to do? If Cao Cao knew that he had done this, he would definitely not be spared!
How did Yang Xiu die? It's because it's mixed with something like that. Cao Cao's words in his heart are probably like this: I want to examine the ability and endowment of my two sons, your party has nothing to do with Cao Zhi, it doesn't matter if you teach him to be a good man, you dare to use my authority as a confidential secretary to figure out my mind and help Cao Zhi cheat. Make my test results inaccurate - is it tolerable, is it intolerable?!
Yes Xun really lacks urgency, and he can't think of any way to get the best of both worlds for a while-Cao Cao is still staring at the two little eyes and expecting him to give an idea, can you say that you will wait for me to go back and think about it for three days before replying? But in this way, he picked himself clean and stood in Cao Cao's position. It's a safe plan, but it may kill Xiao Ji and destroy Cao Chong......
He was thinking about it, and suddenly heard Cao Cao ask: "It is to make Qing secretly leak his matter to Ziying, what if?" "Since you have given such an idea, then the first guest will not bother the two masters, so I will send you to quietly reveal the news to Cao Chong, and see how he decides.
Shi Xun refused: "The minister can't go." Cao Cao asked why? Shi Xun said: "King Liyang, nephew and nephew, Su loves and respects his ministers." If the minister divulges with him, he will ask the minister to calculate. If the minister does not do so, it is suspected of causing harm, and he will be persuaded to ask for the guilt of His Majesty. "If I go to reveal this to Cao Chong, he must ask me what to do, I have a relationship with him, and I have always had a good relationship, can I not help with ideas? I'm sure I'll persuade him to come and plead with you. So isn't this test a complete failure?
Cao Cao nodded, and said that this is reasonable-"Hongfu is a true gentleman." "Yesun is quite ashamed in his heart. I just want to get out of the matter, I really can't talk about any gentleman - I heard Cao Cao say again: "In this case, today's words, be careful not to leak them." ”
By the time Shixun withdrew from the palace, the sky was already dark, and the four gates of Luoyang had been closed. Of course, he could not return to the village outside the city - which was to be expected - but had to return to the mansion in the city. Cao Miao was overjoyed and led Ganyu to greet him at the door.
Gan has a big belly. She married into the family for many years, and finally became pregnant not long ago, Mrs. Cao specially asked someone to take advantage of it, saying that the baby must be a man. I was overjoyed by this. Because Gan was cautious enough, he expressed his attitude with Cao at the beginning of pregnancy, and if he had to give birth to a boy, he would definitely be under the knee of his wife.
This year is clear, but not every eldest wife will definitely be able to give birth to a son, so often after losing hope, the newborn son of the concubine is brought to raise by himself, thinking that his own son is equivalent to a son. After Cao's return, he gave birth to two daughters in a row, and then there was no news for many years, this time if Gan's gave birth to a daughter, it would be fine, if he gave birth to a boy, Cao could really spare her?
And in Gan's mind, his son is the meat that fell from his body after all, even if he was given to the Cao family to raise, and he was not kicked out of the house, no one would deliberately hide who his son's biological mother was, and when he grew up in the future, he would naturally be able to be raised. By his side, his son is only the second son, and he may be bullied by his brother who is more than ten years older than him in the future; If he is by the Cao family's side, his son can be regarded as a concubine, and he has the opportunity to fight with him for the status of heir. Whether it's for yourself or for your son, this is a good policy.
When Shixun heard about this, he didn't pay much attention to it at first-he really didn't care about the difference between his concubines and concubines-but then the turmoil of the heavenly family's heir war arose, and when he thought of himself, he was somewhat troubled. He hopes that the Gan family will also give birth to a daughter, so that the upper and lower sides will be safe and sound-I am really not short of an extra dowry in my family; And Yun was very close to his father when he was a child, but when he was older, he also had his own affairs, and he always refused to tell himself directly, I really hope that there will be another little cloud-like Luo Li running behind his father......
So what if a son is born? If you think about it, it may not cause much trouble. The scholar's family is accustomed to the eldest son taking the title and the sons separating the property, and with his current status, it is not difficult to ask the court for two titles and divide them among the two sons. The family property can be safely divided, whether it is a eunuch or not, and how famous it is, depends on the sons' own efforts, and the father can ensure that they are in the shade, which is enough-the two sons in the same shade are not too troublesome.
This is different from the Heavenly Family, and it is also different from the original Yuan and Liu families, the foundation they want to inherit can also include land, which cannot be divided, and the division is weak. In the case of home, this is not the case.
Putting this matter aside for the time being, it will be several months before Gan's family gives birth. Besides, after returning home, he went straight to the study and called for someone to "invite Mr. Guan to come quickly" -- the so-called "Mr. Guan" was naturally his chief staff officer, Guan Jing Guan Shiqi.
The time was not big, Guan Jing rushed in, it was Xun who pulled the table to sit opposite him - Guan Jing was not used to sitting with his legs down, and if Xun stayed alone in the chair, condescending, it seemed very rude, this is not the way to treat the virtuous - directly informed about the matter of Cao Cao's summons today. He wanted to ask Guan Jing. Should I try to rescue him? And how to save the law?
Guan Jing kept his eyes down and waited for Shixun to finish speaking, and there was no interjection during the period. When Shixun explained the things one by one, and before he opened his mouth to ask, Guan Shi opened his mouth first: "Xiao Yuantu, you don't need to save it." ”
Shi Xun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart that you recommended Xiao Ji to me at the beginning. I have a little friendship with you, why do you so categorically claim that "you don't need to be saved", why? "For Yuantu, this time, is he going to die?" He died on his own, so you don't suggest I save him, do you?
Guan Jing smiled slightly: "Shi Yuantu sent books and Jing ......"
This was a big surprise to Xun, and as soon as he frowned, he asked, "Where is the book?" Guan Jing said that I had burned it, and I was about to report the contents to the lord -- "Biyun has left Luoyang and ...... to himself."
Xiao Yuantu is no ordinary strategist. The conspiracy is not under Guan Shiqi, he is bent on revenge against Cao Ang, so he does not hesitate to leave Shixun and follow Cao Chong, dormant for several years, painstakingly planning to invite the Wei Gang monk, don't you think that once the matter is revealed, he will die without a place to be buried? I think that when he was under Yuan Shao, he had a similar flower head. As a result, Yuan Benchu was angry to death - if Yuan Shao had taken a breath more, could he still not have been punished for the crime of exaggeration? I think about it every time. will feel scared. Later, in Liaodong, he wanted to sell Gongsun, but Gongsun Du took his last breath and wanted to capture him back and slaughter him, and he was equipped in advance and smeared oil on the soles of his feet. Flee to Cao Ying......
All kinds of lessons are here, how can he not leave behind.
Originally, this matter has been silent for several months, don't look at the turmoil on the surface, Cao Ang has not lost his storage position, in fact, after this trouble. His status in the eyes of Cao Cao and even the ministers plummeted, and he was being proud of his treacherous schemes, when he suddenly heard the rumors that were circulating in the capital. He didn't expect that the assassin had already found clues about himself, but "don't worry about winning, think about defeat first", the Son of Heaven will definitely dig into the root of the rumors, and it is likely to involve himself or Cao Chong. So Xiao Ji left a letter to Cao Chong, pretending that his wife in his hometown was sick, asking for leave to visit, and then packed his luggage and sneaked out of Luoyang City.
If it is a false alarm, then I will avoid the limelight first, and then come back after a while, Cao Chong may not be to blame for not resigning - first, although I did not resign, but after all, I sued; The second plan is to sell, and Cao Chong is willing to continue to rely on it. But if this thing really comes to my head, the sky is so vast that it has a place beyond the reach of the king's destiny.
When Shixun heard that he had run away, he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief - this guy is sensitive enough, but it saves me the trouble. asked Guan Jing again: "Does Yuan Tu still talk about other things?" Guan Jing said yes, and Xiao Ji vaguely said that if Cao Cao questioned Cao Chong, it is estimated that Cao Chong would definitely confess himself, or even kill people directly, so he had to go......
Shi Xun Yi frowned: "Why is King Liyang like this?" ”
Guan Jing pursed the corners of his mouth: "Yuan Tu Naiyun, the king of Liyang, Shen Xiao's father, is decisive in killing, and he would rather lose people than others." "Didn't Cao Cao say that if he was Cao Chong, he would definitely kill Xiao Ji as soon as possible? Hehe, Cao Chong is the same as his father's temperament and behavior, and Xiao Ji has been in his background for many years, so he knows this very well.
Shi Xun sighed: "In this way, he can't wear it." "Hurry up and delete Cao Chong from the shortlist of storage positions. Then he asked, "Where is the metagraph?" Guan Jing replied: "Biyun wants to see the desert scenery and exotic customs. Shi Xun nodded, look at this meaning, he plans to vote for Lu Bu - it's better, it's better than running to Shu to vote for Liu Bei. Xiao Ji really plans to vote for Liu Bei, maybe I will be ruthless and send someone to search for him and ...... him At the very least, I'll have to imprison him.
In addition to leaving a letter to Cao Chong, he only sent a letter to Guan Jing, there is no doubt that there must be a secret communication channel between him and Guan Shiqi, otherwise if the situation is calm, he must be able to get the news before he can return calmly. Now that I have revealed to Guan Jing the secret words between me and Cao Cao, Guan Jing will definitely inform Xiao Ji and tell him to leave quickly and not come back.
Guan Shiqi is also quite sincere in treating friends, but in any case, he has been a master and slave friend with me for many years, so the friendship between the two of us is not comparable to his Yuantu. If I really ordered the detention of the discipline, Guan Jing would definitely be able to do it. (To be continued......)
