Cao Hong and Man Pet, that is a former feud.

Cao Zilian was reckless and brave enough to fight, but he was not only an idiot in politics, but also careless, and often indulged his family members to break the law - at that time, Xu had two evils, one was the general Liu Xun, and the other was Cao Hong. Liu Xun is Cao Cao's old friend, and Cao Hong is Cao Cao's brother, so he is specially gifted - but Xun knows that Liu Xun will be killed by Cao Cao for being too indulgent in a few years, as for Cao Hong, Cao Cao I was safe in the end, and he was almost killed in the Cao Pi era.

The year before last, Cao Cao appointed his former official in Yanzhou, Man Chong, as Xu Ling, who was a well-known cool official at that time, who strictly enforced the law and did not avoid the powerful. So not long ago, there was a Cao Hong's doorman in the hands of Man Chong, Cao Hong wrote a letter to intercede, Man Chong ignored it, Cao Hong had to report to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao summoned Man Chong to come and question. Full of pet thought, the prime minister has always indulged his brother, if they really meet, eighty percent want me to release him, will I listen or not when the time comes? Simply, slaughter the prisoner first, and then go to see Cao Cao. Cao Cao didn't blame Manzhong, but said: "Shouldn't you be evil? Shouldn't things be the way things go?

But Cao Hong hated Man Pet so much since then, and even openly said that if he bumped into Man Pet on the street, he would have to beat that dog's head out of the! Full of pets is too lazy to be angry with this muddy person, and when he sees Cao Hong's honor guard from a distance, he takes the initiative to avoid it - the identity and status of the two are very different, and I am not ashamed to avoid Cao Hong.

Yesun set up a banquet today, and the guests invited were very particular, as Zhuge Liang said, the main body was "Qian Pei people". At this time, there were two places where the number of people in the Cao regime was the largest. It is also the most reused. The first is the Ruying (Runan, Yingchuan) people represented by Xun's uncles and nephews. The second is the Qian Pei (Peiguo Qian County) people represented by Zhu Cao Xiahou, the former are mostly civil servants, and the latter holds military power.

Although Shixun is a native of Qingzhou, he has followed Cao Cao since the Yanzhou era, so he is also qualified to squeeze into these two political groups - as a scribe, he can follow Ruying; Zeng Zhen can also enter the city. The problem is that Xun himself is the son-in-law of the Cao family, so he is naturally closer to the Qian Pei Group. In addition, the Ruying Group mostly represents the interests of the big families, and the Cao Xiahou of the Qian Pei Group, although not a single family, is not comparable to the Xun, Chen, Sima and other big families, and for Shi Xun, he is more emotionally inclined to the latter.

So he simply took the opportunity to help his father-in-law expand his social circle and feast on people.

The vast majority of the seats are relatives, including Zhu Cao Xiahou, and also Xun's brother is Jun and his brother-in-law Wang Xiong. Those are left. Xu Yu is also a native of Peiguo, although he joined relatively late. is also Cao Cao's fellow countryman; Dian Wei's bravery, Zhu Cao Xiahou has always admired; Han Hao is Xiahoudun's sworn friend; Ren Jun and Man Chong are both old people in the Yanzhou era, and because of their low background, they have always been rejected by the Ruying Group; Only Dong Zhao was shoehorned in, and it was Xun who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to combine his small group with the big group of Qian Pei.

If you want to fight against the Xun clan and the Ruying group, you must first stand in your own position, and then unite your allies as much as possible.

Shi Xun and Zhuge Liang spent a lot of effort on studying this list, but unfortunately they forgot that Cao Hong had a grudge against Manzhong - when the incident happened, they had not returned to the capital, and they only heard about it later, so they were not impressed, and they subconsciously ignored it.

But as soon as Man Pet entered the scene, Cao Hong immediately became angry, and he stood up and was about to flash - he didn't hold down Man Pet on the spot and hit, which had already been counted as a face for Cao Bao and Shi Xun. But there is no need to give too much face, because Cao Bao's branch and Cao Cao and Cao Hong's branches are inherently contradictory, if it weren't for Cao Hong and Cao Bao's brothers who dedicated Xuzhou and made great contributions to the Cao family, Cao Hong would not have taken care of him as an uncle at all. So-either full of favors, or Lao Tzu goes, you choose!

Cao Bao glanced at Shi Xun with his eyes, and said in his heart Look at the list you have drawn up, please this guest, you hurry up and find a way to solve it. Shi Xun didn't want to mention how much fire he had in his heart, he wanted to slap himself on the spot, and he also wanted to cut Cao Hong with a sword. Looking left and right, Xiahou Yuan crossed his waist and looked at the sky, Xiahou Lian looked down at the ground, Cao Xiu deliberately ran aside to talk to Han Hao, and the rest, no one was qualified to persuade Cao Hong.

Of course, he couldn't allow Cao Hong to run away, let alone drive away Manzhong, and he couldn't run over to ask Zhuge Liang, who was doing his disciple's courtesy and arranging a seat. I couldn't help but curse in my heart, Zixiu, why haven't you brothers arrived? You're not your father, do you have to be the last to enter the show? If Cao Ang is here, he will be able to stop Cao Hong from going crazy.

There's no way, I'll go on - Lao Tzu said all over the world with a sharp mouth, I don't believe I can't deal with you as a reckless person!

At the moment, he pretended to be surprised and asked: "Zilian, Berning, is there anything wrong?" "Anyway, I wasn't in Xudu when you were making trouble, so I pretended not to know, let you put your reasons in place first, delay the time, and make it convenient for me to think about it.

Cao Hong couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he thought that everyone knew the contradiction between himself and Manzhong, but now it was Xun who asked, but how to explain it? Not beat around the bush? After all, it was his own doorman who broke the law first, and he would be embarrassed to say it - although he was reckless, he was not stupid.

It was Man Boning, with a calm attitude, bowed slightly to Shi Xun, and said calmly: "Favored by Cao Gong, guarding the capital, and eliminating evil, I am afraid that I will offend General Li Feng (Cao Hong)." ”

When Cao Hong heard this, he became even more angry - what did you say, because you offended me because of "the elimination of evil is inexhaustible"? Doesn't that mean that I am "evil"? As soon as you roll up your sleeves, you will be beaten up with pets. Xiahou Yuan took a look, and then couldn't be cautious with the next person, so he hurriedly rushed over and hugged Cao Hong's thick waist: "Zilian, uncle's banquet, don't be rude!" ”

Yes Xun is really depressed, I thought that the two of you would explain things clearly, I tried to find a way to persuade them, who thought that these two were clumsy, so they simply didn't mention the grievances, and the other understated, but the words were like knives, poking people's hearts. If you don't make it clear, how can I persuade you? I've already told you that I don't understand the mess between the two of you.

At the moment, I had to take a deep look at Cao Hong first, and then a deep bow to Manzhong: "Erjun, life is in the world." Who is not guilty? Or resentment. It's inevitable. Please see how it was revealed before this feast? ”

Cao Hong said Hongfu, I'm not selling your face, this dog head is too rude, I must not give up with him! Man Chong smiled slightly bitterly: "General Li Feng wants to beat him up, and he can't accept it calmly." "It's not that I'm going to embarrass him, it's that he won't let me go, I can't just stand here and wait for him to fight, right? Why don't I quit first?

Shi Xun had no choice, so he had to spend his main energy on persuading Cao Hong: "Zilian." Do you know that you are honest? ”

Cao Hong was stunned when he heard this, and said I know, a veteran of Zhao Guo. It was Xun Nai who said: "Xi Lian is not resentful, but he is like avoiding it, why not?" The reason why Qin did not dare to increase troops in Zhao was that it was quite similar to each other, and if the two tigers fought together, it would be harmful to the country. This son is cheap, and the prime minister's heart is also. Berning also bears the weight of the capital. If the two fights, it will not only damage the country, but also hurt the prime minister's knowledge. Zilian is also a smart person, and he must know this principle. "You have to coax Cao Hong to be a reckless person, and it is naturally convenient to persuade him if he is happy, so it is Xun who put on a high hat and said that you are a "smart person", how can you not understand the truth that if you are not in harmony, you will endanger the country?

Who would have thought that Cao Hongchao glared at Manzhong: "How can he be like a person, and An Neng is like Lin Xiang?!" "You can compare me to Lian Po, I think that Lin Xiangru can return to Zhao completely, and he will not fall into the prestige of the country, so he is listed as a secretary, and he is just a small county order, which is a fart! Cao Hong is still thinking in his heart, now, it is estimated that only Xun Wenruo can be compared to Lin Xiang, but I have no contradiction with him.

But it was Xun who said: "Lin Xiang, who is just a eunuch at the beginning, is also a eunuch, because he is recommended to go to Qin, he can return the Bi, and he is listed as a secretary." Berning is high, and the special cone is not in the bag, if he gets it, he will show his talents in the future. "Does he know that Man Boning is not only good at breaking out of prison, but also good at soldiers, and will defend the southern front for Cao Wei in the future, and he will also perform many miraculous feats. But as soon as these words came out, I felt that it was not safe - you said that you were full of favors like a sharp cone and did not enter the bag, are you blaming Cao Cao for not doing his best in employing people? So I hurriedly added: "If Boning has no talent, the prime minister has to pay the heavy responsibility of the capital?" "Do you think the governor of the capital is a good one? That can't be compared to the average county order!

When the pet heard this, he hurriedly said: "Hongfu praised it falsely, and the pet didn't dare to be it." ”

Shi Xun grabbed Manzhong's hand and said: "Although, Zilian is an important general of the country, and his name is in the secretary's position, if he is offended, why not apologize for it, but let go of the old anger." "You apologize to Cao Hong, and this matter may be over.

Full of pet faces: "There is no fault for petting, why apologize?" ”

Shi Xun hurriedly advised: "I didn't say that Qing had it." How did the former Lin Xiang have it? It is to go down from high and avoid Lian Po, but for the sake of national affairs, why should you spare yourself? What does Berning think? "I didn't say you were at fault, but yes, can't you apologize? In order to make peace and peace in the country, if an individual is slightly wronged, what is it? At the same time, I made a look, which means, why are you so careless with a bunch of people?

There is no way to be full of favors - of course he doesn't want to be beaten by Cao Hong, and if it's not good, he will turn around and dodge, he really wants to hide, not only will he offend Cao Bao and Shixun, but everyone who goes to the banquet today may not give his family a good look. Since it is Xun who has talked about this, he also compares himself to Lin Xiangru, and gives enough steps down, so it is better to be a little more generous. So he reluctantly gave Cao Hong a deep look: "General Li Feng, if you have offended in the past, I apologize for the present, and I hope that General Haihan will be hoped." ”

Shi Xun turned around and persuaded Cao Hong again, saying that the other party has apologized, so you can dissipate your anger, everyone does things for the prime minister, if the contradiction is always incomprehensible, the prime minister will also be nerve-"Zilian, don't leave the lord worried." ”

Seeing this scene, Xiahou Lian and Cao Xiu saw that things were slowing down, and each had steps, so they hurriedly came over to help persuade them, so they finally pulled Cao Hong back to his seat. Cao Hong couldn't afford to offend so many people, so he had to stalk his neck hatefully: "I don't have this dog...... The villain is generally knowledgeable, and he is called to sit down! "When it comes to fame, I can't have been seated in the first place, and do you think I like to be close to you? At that moment, Shi Shiran ran to the last place and sat down calmly.

One day the dark clouds barely dispersed. Soon after everyone entered the table, Cao Ang and his brothers and sons also arrived, so Cao Bao sat in the chief, the second seat, Cao Ang, Cao Zheng, and Cao Pi below, then Cao Xiahou, and then the rest of the people. Everyone sat down, Shi Xun was waiting for the order to open the feast, and suddenly the half-grown child Cao Pi glanced at Cao Hong, and then looked at the last man Manzhong, and asked: "Uncle Zilian, how can you be willing to sit with Man Boning today?" Don't say anything? ”

It's Xun who gritted his teeth with hatred - Cao Lao Er, you really mention which pot if you don't open it, why do you owe it so much?! (To be continued......)
