538 Draw Tiger Dogs
Wang Baoyu knew that Cao Pi's weight was different from others, so he did not refuse, and then dressed newly, followed the attendants, and came to Cao Pi's house.
Cao Pi's mansion is not big, the decoration is like a miniature version of Cao Cao's place, and the maids are also ordinary-looking, which seems to be very low-key.
However, in Wang Baoyu's view, the more Cao Pi is like this, the more his ambition is demonstrated, and only by not being extravagant and wasting himself and putting on a posture of self-denial and devotion to public service is what Cao Cao likes.
After following the servant to the hall, Cao Pi sat upright, and a half-old table was placed below, which should have been prepared for Wang Baoyu. On one side, there was also an old man of about fifty with a mustache, his eyes were slick, and he looked like a shrewd person.
"Eldest son, I'm glad to meet!" Wang Baoyu arched his hand.
"Baoyu, please be seated!" The corners of Cao Pi's mouth raised, and he could be regarded as having laughed.
Wang Baoyu's heart sank, and it could be seen from Cao Pi's expression that the two would never become real friends. After Wang Baoyu thanked him, he sat down in a big way, and the old man with the eight-character beard looked at Wang Baoyu carefully and repeatedly, but did not speak.
Cao Pi didn't speak, the room was quiet, only the old man kept looking at Wang Baoyu, as if he was going to get into his sweat pores.
"This old gentleman, I washed my face when I came, and it's embarrassing for you to look at people like this." Wang Baoyu said half jokingly and half displeased.
"Wang Taishou has an extraordinary bearing, auspicious shrouded, and people can't take their eyes off, so I look at it a few more times, and I hope to forgive me." The old man politely bowed his hand and said something nice.
"Looking at you, you dare to ask your surname?"
"My surname is Jia Mingxu, and I am a friend of the eldest prince. The general generation is not in the eyes of the king and is too law-abiding. ”
Jia Xu? This is a well-known strategist beside Cao Cao, Wang Baoyu was busy and said: "It turns out that Jia Da Strategist, fortunately!" I'm actually just an ordinary person, and I can't talk about anything extraordinary, and I can't compare with you. ”
"No, in my opinion, Wang Taishou has the posture of a dragon and a phoenix, and he will definitely be able to make contributions."
This is inexplicable, Wang Baoyu is unhappy, and he doesn't buy it at all, "Come on, I don't have that ambition, what a dragon or a phoenix, this word came out, and it didn't make me lose my life!" ”
"Everything I say is true."
"If you say it again, you'll have an enmity with me!"
"Teacher, don't talk about this again." Cao Pi stopped Jia Xu very domineeringly.
The servant served fragrant tea, and Wang Baoyu drank a cup unceremoniously, and then asked casually: "Eldest prince, I don't know if you want to call me over, what instructions do you have?" ”
Cao Pi's eyes stared at Wang Baoyu, and suddenly said, "It's okay, I just want to kill you." ”
"Whatever, I wish you all the best."
Wang Baoyu frowned for a while, but was not afraid, but felt a trace of disdain. Cao Cao's outspoken treatment of his cronies is indeed a characteristic, but not everyone is cute when he learns from him, like Cao Pi, living in someone else's mold, it is simply a tiger and not an anti-dog, which is disgusting!
And Wang Baoyu didn't think that Cao Pi could kill himself, no matter how bold he was, he would never dare to touch the people around his father lightly. Of course, if Cao Pi insisted on killing, he would not be punished too much, but this would directly expose his ambitions, and then affect the question of his succession, which is more important than his life.
Wang Baoyu didn't believe that his life would be more important than the power in Cao Pi's eyes, and he was always wandering in the Three Kingdoms period, and he didn't know when he would go home, he really felt that he had lived enough, and he was clean when he died!
"Good! You are so bold, no wonder your father thinks so highly of you. Cao Pi said with a cold face.
"If you had been less tempted, my father would have liked you more."
"People often say that my temperament is most like my father." Cao Pi defended, even his movements, expressions and even tone were imitating Cao Cao, Wang Baoyu really couldn't stand it, and waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”
Cao Pi gave Jia Xu a look, Jia Xu retreated very knowingly, and then he showed a smile and said: "Baoyu, it was a joke just now, don't blame." ”
If Cao Cao said so, Wang Baoyu would still believe it, but Cao Pi said that he would not have any credibility, this is definitely not a joke, but he didn't dare to do it.
"How dare I blame, you are the one who will succeed you after all." Wang Baoyu said.
"My father has already had a strict decree not to discuss the succession in private, if you mention it again, don't blame me for not being merciful." Cao Pi's smiling face just now became gloomy again.
"I'm just telling the truth, I will look at the face, and I won't follow you, you will definitely succeed to the throne." Wang Baoyu still said.
"Hmph, you're going to say that when you see my other brothers, right?"
"You don't like me, I don't like you too, do we still have to play between the two of us?"
Cao Pi was stunned, he had already heard of Wang Baoyu's magical things in Jingzhou, but now that Wang Baoyu said it so surely, he believed it a little, and hurriedly laughed and said: "This matter can only be understood but not spoken." ”
"Okay, there's no one else now, but what are you looking for me for?" Wang Baoyu waved his hand.
"Recently, I heard that you are going to the Huns, is it true?" Cao Pi asked.
"That's the case, what's wrong?" Wang Baoyu asked rhetorically.
Alas! Cao Pi sighed, shook his head slightly, with a sad look on his face, and said for a long time: "But I was entrusted by my father to pick up Na Wen Ji back?" ”
"Yes! Is there still a secret between your father and son? Wang Baoyu was puzzled, what made him even more puzzled was how many secrets Cai Wenji hid in her body, and even Cao Pi was touched.
"My father has many heirs, and the matter of fighting for succession has made my brothers not harmonious, and my father is worried, but I don't know as much as you." Cao Pi said frankly.
"Well, what do you think about my trip to the Huns? If you can keep me going, I'll thank you. Wang Baoyu also said frankly.
"Father's words, no one dares to disobey, I just hope that you will go to the Huns, don't take that Wen Ji back, so that the foundation created by my father will not cause trouble because of a woman." Cao Pi said.
"You can also see that I don't want to go at all, but if I go, I can't pick up Cai Wenji, I'm afraid that your father won't let me go?" Wang Baoyu spread his hands and said: "After all, the power is still in his hands now, and I care more about him." ”
"Father treats you very kindly, I should not be embarrassed by you, as you said, one day I can succeed to the throne, I will be rewarded." Cao Pi arched his hand.
"Eldest son, I don't understand, how can a married, pregnant, and pregnant Cai Wenji, an older woman with broken flowers and willows, cause so many incidents?" Wang Baoyu asked bluntly.
"Don't insult Wen Ji like this, if you say another word, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless." Cao Pi's face suddenly changed, and his face was full of anger.
