Everyone looked at him and immediately understood what he was thinking.

At this time, Cao Pi was sitting on pins and needles, knowing that there were hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at him above his head, but he still pretended to be calm and pretended not to know.

"Zihuan, Lone hasn't checked your homework recently. Just take this opportunity to test you. You are the same as Zijian, just write a poem. Those who are better in literature will be rewarded alone. Cao Cao let out the words.

Cao Pi put on a humble posture and said: "Father, Zijian's literary talent has always been the best among the brothers. Erchen just listened to the poems written by Zijian, and couldn't help but sigh, Cheng is a good work, which is really admirable. ”

When he spoke, Cao Zhi respectfully replied to Cao Pi's salute: "Brother praised." ”

Cao Pi continued: "Erchen is ashamed of himself, and what he does will not be as good as Zijian. But the father's command, the son's will obey. Erchen is willing to try his best, and asks his father to wait for Erchen for a while. ”

"Just think about it, think about it. Think alone with you, and think about what it would be good to reward one of your brothers later. Cao Cao didn't want to put pressure on Cao Pi either.

Originally, everyone thought that Cao Chong was gone, and there was no doubt that the prince was not Cao Zhi. But who knew that the old ministers of the imperial court attached great importance to orthodoxy, and the identity and status of the eldest son won Cao Pi an opportunity. In addition, Cao Cao, who they didn't have much hope for Cao Pi now, has gradually changed. Cao Cao would consciously or unconsciously compare his two sons, such as today's literary test. I don't know if Cao Cao was also influenced by the old ministers in the court.

After a while, Cao Pi asked: "Father, the son is ready." ”

In the eyes of outsiders, Cao Pi does respect Cao Cao. Etiquette is always in place, and the tone is always modest. Cao Zhi is not as good as Cao Pi in this regard, Cao Zhi's literary popularity and talent are too heavy, he often acts willfully, does not pay attention to grooming and restraining himself, and has no moderation in drinking, because of this reason, he has also committed a lot of things, which makes Cao Cao feel disappointed.

The comparison of the brothers is evident from the very beginning. Cao Zhi felt that it was okay, and began to chant with a mouthful. Cao Pi is almost brewing, and he has to report to his father.

Cao Cao is also a person who pays attention to details, he doesn't say it in his mouth, but he remembers it in his heart. He nodded his chin slightly to signal Cao Pi, and at the same time sat upright. Before he even started, he took out a posture to listen carefully.

Then, the chanting began:

Lintai line high, high to Xuan.

There is water below, clear and cold;

There are yellow birds turning over and over.

Be faithful to your deeds,

May His Majesty the Emperor be 3,000 years old and live in this palace.

The hoofs want to swim south, but the hen can't follow,

I want to bow down to you, but I can't open my mouth.

I want to be negative, the sweater is ruined,

Five miles away, six miles away.

Compared with Cao Zhi's long essays, Cao Pi's works are concise and lyrical.

If you really want to compare and evaluate, it is natural that Cao Zhi's poetry is more brilliant. Cao Pi's poem can be written by others, but the beauty is insufficient, and the novelty is even more lacking.

"The poems of the eldest son are full of affection and kindness, which makes the ministers touch the hearts of the people, and they are also exquisite." Some of the old ministers who supported Cao Pi stood up to speak.

The friendly party that supports Cao Zhi is not too ugly. From time to time, there are a few exclamations, "It's okay! The talent of the eldest son is also true, and his subordinates are respectful. ”

This kind of praise is polite when you hear it, and the evaluation of Cao Pi is inevitably several grades worse than Cao Zhi.

While everyone was waiting for Cao Cao to speak, he fell silent. After a long time, he said quietly: "Acting as a minister, you should be loyal......"

Everyone couldn't figure out what he was thinking, and then he stood up and looked at his two sons condescendingly, "The poem written by Zihuan is also satisfied." It seems that you have been paying attention to your homework lately. It's just that compared to Zijian's poetry, it's still much worse. Let's go back and work harder. ”

had already expected this to be the result, and Cao Pi didn't have much turmoil on his face, only politely and politely: "No, the retainers obey the order." ”

"Come on, reward the third son, Cao Zhi - Yitian Sword!" Cao Cao waved his palm.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces were cloudy. Why?

Cao Cao had two swords in his life, one was called the "Qingyu Sword", and it is said that Changbanpo lost the first battle and was taken away by Zhao Yun; The other is this "Heavenly Sword", after losing the Qingyu Sword, Cao Cao especially cherished the remaining Heavenly Sword. The sword of Yitian is extremely sharp, and it was said in "Da Yan Fu" that "draw the long sword and lean on the sky", and "Yitian Sword" is so named. It can be seen that if it were not for the sword, it would not be passed on to future generations. The sword, in turn, often represents military power. Cao Cao's move to give the sword does not need to be clearly stated, everyone knows it in their hearts.

Cao Cao still values Cao Zhi more. After all, Cao Zhi had the upper hand, and Cao Zhi was one step closer to the throne of the prince.

At this time, he suddenly shouted: "Wait! ”

Who would be so bold and unruly, and openly drink to stop Cao Cao. Before everyone could digest Cao Cao's feelings after giving him the sword, they were shocked by this person. At the same time, I couldn't help but sweat profusely for her.

Follow the prestige, and then take a closer look. The soldiers all made way for her, and a masked woman appeared in everyone's sight.

Who else is so unafraid of death? Except for our summer.

"Why are you here?" Cao Cao didn't know whether to be happy or worried. There seemed to be a sense of blame on her lips, but her body honestly walked down the high platform to meet her.

"Why, can't I come? But I'm already here, so you can't help but drive me away. ”

What are these words, she has come here, how can she be willing to drive her away again. Cao Cao saw that she came with a veil, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why he didn't let her come was because he didn't want her to show her face and let more people know her. She is beautiful, talented, and the most conspicuous one wherever she goes. It's too hard to think of her as unnoticed.

He also wanted to protect her by doing this. Nothing else.

"Lonely people are not reluctant. How did you come up with the idea of masking your face. Cao Cao asked with a smile.

Xiang Xia said triumphantly, "I know your intentions, so I came up with this idea." And she also knows how to protect herself. She also didn't want others to know her from now on, because she was Cao Cao's wife.

"As far as you're smart, I'm still worried about whether you'll be angry." Sure enough, she always understands herself.

"You think I'm your ladies? I'm going to use my brain. ”

"What a vicious little mouth, aren't you saying that they have no brains." Cao Cao didn't laugh angrily.

"I didn't say that, you said it yourself." Xiang Summer's words clearly mean that.,I still don't want to admit it.。 If you don't admit it, you have to throw the pot on Cao Cao.

"Well, that's just a matter of saying. You do have the most brains than them. ”

The two 'flirted and scolded' in public, and they were stunned by a lot of people. I thought that Cao Cao only had a serious face, but I didn't expect to have such a smile in the face of a beauty. His subordinates only dared to look at Cao Cao, but they didn't dare to spy on the face of the masked beauty, if they were revealed, it would be a serious crime.

Then again, this makes the women in the backyard jealous.

I don't know who took the lead and saluted: "See Mrs. Xia." ”

After that, everyone learned that this person was Cao Cao's new favorite. They also saluted her.

Cao Cao wanted to talk to her again, but the current situation did not allow it. He took her hand and walked to the high platform together.

On the way, he secretly whispered to her: "You said something wrong just now, you were originally my wife, what do you mean by thinking you are." ”

"You!" I want to make a round eye at Summer. But in the face of Cao Cao's hippie smile, he couldn't afford it.

This move clearly fell in Bian's eyes, she clenched her fists and greeted her with a smile: "Why did my sister come here." I heard that my husband didn't invite my sister, so there are no extra seats at this time. If your sister doesn't dislike it, you might as well squeeze it with your sister. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm disgusted." Xiang Summer slapped her directly in the face. Don't think she can't hear it, it's a mockery of her. Cao Cao never invited her, and she even ran to make trouble without permission.

Cao Cao knew that the two were not in harmony, so he naturally understood the meaning of Bian's words. He calmly faced and ordered unhappily: "Come on, give Mrs. Xia a seat." ”

After finishing the order, Cao Cao stared at Bian and said to her, "You have been less and less particular about what you say recently. Lonely hasn't opened his mouth yet, but you're one step ahead of Lone. Xia Xia especially doesn't like to be with you, and you don't know it. Furthermore, if there is no extra seat, Lone can also give up her seat. ”

"How's that going to work? Wouldn't it break the rules? Bian subconsciously exclaimed.

What a system this becomes.

But seeing that Cao Cao's face was a little ugly, Bian felt that he had lost etiquette, and he brushed his body to make amends: "What the husband taught me is that the concubine's words and deeds in the future will definitely be well measured." ”

Then he saluted to Summer: "Please don't take your sister to heart." ”

Xiang Xia hung her with a cold face, Cao Cao still had to take care of her face, and slapped her back: "Okay, there's nothing for you here." ”

Bian Shi and returned to her seat as if she had lost her soul, she was so old, and she had to suffer from her husband's cold words. Or on this occasion, if you don't do it, you will be embarrassed in public.

What does this make her feel in her heart?

On the other side, Xiang Xia caught a glimpse of the next person busy adding a seat for her. She stopped them with a loud voice: "Let them stop working, I won't stay here for long." ”

"Oh? So what are you here for? Cao Cao asked.

Xiang Xia smiled at him, this smile could make Lao Cao's heart bloom. Unexpectedly, before Yiren's smile was appreciated, he ushered in someone's public criticism.

"I didn't want to show up, but no one here dared to say anything. I felt compelled to come up and say a fair word. "Take a few steps forward to the summer and face everyone.

"I want to say that the two sons' literary examinations are unfair." Xiang Xia turned around again, and faced Cao Cao again.

When the two looked at each other, Cao Cao felt that the exhibition of the matter seemed to be out of control. But...... It seems to be quite interesting.
