Speak without scrutiny

One day, Cao Cao was wandering in the garden. Walking on the path, the next second was attracted by a gazebo.

There were three people in the pavilion, Xiang Xia sat lazily in the middle, and Cao Pi and Guo Zhao stood beside her.

How could the three of them come together, Cao Cao curiously crawled forward.

"The son took Guo Zhao and greeted his wife." Pizhao and both of them knelt on the ground and saluted.

"Excuse me, get up."

"Mrs. Xie."

"Sit down."

"My son doesn't dare." Cao Pi took a step back in fear, and Guo Zhao followed him.

"You don't dare, but Guo Zhao is weak." The implication is that Cao Pi takes care of her body. Xiang Summer's tone was cold, and there seemed to be alienation in his words.

"The son had the courage to accept it, and the son also thanked his wife on behalf of Guo Zhao."

After another prostration, the two took their seats.

"It's rare to see the two of you walking together today. You two are in a good mood today. Xiang Xia said with a smile.

"Back to his wife's words, the son and Guo Zhao went to ask their mother for peace. Guo Zhao didn't want to go back so early, so her son took her to walk around here. I didn't expect to meet Mrs. here, my son should have come to ask Mrs. for his sins, and it has been delayed until now, and I ask Mrs. for forgiveness. As soon as the words fell, Cao Pi had to kneel down again.

"I thought you had forgotten."

"Reparations?" Guo Zhao looked at them puzzled.

"You let him say it himself." Xiang Xia glanced at Cao Pi, and then raised his glass to taste tea.

Cao Pi lowered his head in shame and clenched his fists, explaining: "Ah Zhao, that's the case. The first time I saw Madame, I bumped into her while I was walking inadvertently, and I made rude remarks about her. ”

Guo Zhao exclaimed: "Zihuan, how can you be disrespectful to Mrs. She." Madame, she was my lifesaver. ”

"At that time, I was blind enough to recognize my wife, and I asked her to forgive my son for his rudeness. The son is known to be wrong. Cao Pi was sincere, and Guo Zhao also helped to say good things, "Madam, please forgive him for Zihuan's unintentional sake." ”

Xiang Xia put down the teacup, and the strength of his hand at this moment was not small, and a lot of tea was spilled. But seeing Xiang Xia's unhappy face, he mocked: "If you really know your mistakes, you won't delay until today to admit your mistakes to me!" Cao Pi, although this is the second time we have met, and I am your nominal aunt, I should be polite to you. But I didn't feel your sincerity in admitting your mistakes, not to mention that Guo Zhao had also caused me a lot of trouble. How can you set an example for the world in the future? ”

Cao Pi and Guo Zhao glanced at each other, "My son doesn't understand, why did Mrs. say this." ”

Xiang Xia seemed to realize that she had said something she shouldn't have said, and her face changed drastically. Then he covered his face and drank tea to suppress the shock, and brought the topic of Fang Cai: "It's nothing." I just ask you, where is your sincerity? I heard that Guo Zhao went to ask Mrs. Bian for peace day after day, and she seems to have only visited Xia Qingge once. Halfway through that time, she fainted again. Then I sent for you to fetch her back, and you had the opportunity to apologize to me, but you were fine. took people away without saying a word, without a word of thanks. ”

Cao Pi was red-faced by her, and argued: "Madame forgive me, my son was really worried about Azhao's body that day, and he just wanted to take her back to recuperate as soon as possible, so as not to disturb Madame." I wanted to find an opportunity to apologize and apologize to my wife, but then Brother Chong had such an accident, and my son was so sad that he forgot about it for a while......"

"Madam, Guo Zhao can testify. In the days when Cao Chong's son was killed, Zihuan washed his face with tears all day long, couldn't swallow food, and couldn't sleep at night. I watched him lose weight day by day, but he couldn't help much. I was anxious and felt sorry for him. If Mrs. really wants to investigate the blame, then Guo Zhao will be punished. After that, Guo Zhao wiped a few tears aggrievedly.

"Azhao, no. I am your husband, and I should take on my responsibilities as a man. If I dare not admit this little mistake, and I want you to be punished for me, how can my father trust me in the future, and how will my younger brothers think of me? When my brother Chong was alive, I did not fulfill my responsibilities as a brother. I deeply regret it, and I will never be able to live up to you and Zhen Mi, my mother, and my father in the future. Whether it is a minister or a son of a man, he should be upright and innocent. Cao Pi hugged Guo Zhao's shoulders and said these words from the bottom of his heart.

"That's it!" Xiang Summer raised his hand impatiently, "When did I say I was going to punish you?" I'm just going to give you a few words. Is it fearful that he will be like this, like a person who can achieve great things? ”

"Madame admonished me that my son just couldn't help it for a while."

"I can't help but leave these things to your father, it's useless to me." Xiang Summer looked contemptuous.

"If it were to the father, the son would not have said these things." Cao Pi said from himself, "Father, he likes people who are really talented and practical, and he doesn't like to play tricks." ”

"No, no, no. Your father likes both capable people and pleasing people. ”

"Madame's words are wrong. It is false to talk about flattery, can you still have any hypocrisy towards your father? If a son has a true filial piety to his father, his father can feel it even if he doesn't use his lip service. Instead of spending time on flattery, it is better to do your job well and assist your father by the side. I don't expect to help my father, but I don't want my father to worry about his son anymore. "Cao Pi's words are beady, and he has the style of an eldest son.

"When is your turn to preach to me?" Xiang Xia raised his eyebrows and was dissatisfied, "That's it." Thinking of your filial piety, I will not care about you. I hope you can do what you just said, get down on your knees. ”

"Mrs. Xie."

Cao Pi and Guo Zhao were about to step back, and then they heard Xiang Xia's special advice: "I heard that Xu Yuanzhi has recently become your teacher, you follow him to study hard." ”

"No, follow Madame's teachings."

After the two left, Cui Qingshui on the side said loudly: "The eldest son is filial, but he can't compare to the third son after all." ”

"You're a bit too categorical. Talent is valuable, but filial piety is the most popular. I think Cao Zhi is not as good as Cao Pi in terms of filial piety. If Cao Zhi becomes the emperor in the future, can he make the world obey him? "It's okay to say anything to the summer. Cao Zhi's representative is not orthodox, and her words are not shallow.

Cui Qingshui was so frightened by her that she gasped, and reminded her in a low voice: "Don't say such rebellious words, don't let anyone with a heart listen to it." ”

"Huh." Xiang Xia sneered, "People with a heart will not think that I am disrespectful, they will only think that I am a proverb." ”

A proverb.

Literary competition

Cao Cao struggled through his low period, and then his career ushered in a small peak. Cao Cao defeated Zhang Lu and pacified Hanzhong.

It has not been a happy event for a long time, and in order to celebrate this victory, Cao Cao ordered people to hold a banquet in Tongquetai.

Many ladies were invited, except for Xiang Summer. It stands to reason that she is now the most favored master in this backyard. There was no reason why she shouldn't be invited to a banquet.

But this is the case, and I don't know what Cao Cao thinks. The women in the backyard were proud and arrogant for a while, but they didn't take it too seriously to the summer.

After three rounds of drinking, Bian suggested with a smile: "It's rare to be so lively today. According to the concubine's humble opinion, there is no lack of poetry if there is wine. ”

"Hmm...... Yes, loneliness has always been inseparable from poetry and wine. The feast of loneliness, how can it be without poetry. Cao Cao smiled and patted his thigh, "Those of you here can play to your heart's content." If the poems made can win the lonely heart, they will be rewarded. ”

Although Cao Cao ordered a heavy reward, everyone was cautious and humble. No one wants to be the first to steal the limelight, and they don't dare. What's more, there are two distinguished focal points sitting at today's banquet, and it is not their turn to start with their subordinates.

After a while, no one stood up. Bian's eyes were shining, and he said with a smile: "The concubine has not heard Zijian's poetry for a long time. Today, on this occasion, the husband and the concubine dare to let Zijian compose a poem. ”

Cao Cao also had this intention, and looked at Cao Zhi: "Gu hasn't listened to your poems for a while, you come to make a poem for Lone." Zhou Li has a saying, 'Teach six poems, say wind, say fu, say bi, say xing, say ya, say song.' 'You can do whatever you want. ”

Cao Zhi came out of the ranks dignified and bowed to the people in high positions: "The sons obey orders." ”

In fact, Cao Zhi is already a bamboo in his chest, but he still pretends to be inking in his heart. After a while, he moved his steps, smiled lightly on his white face, and chanted confidently:

From the Ming Dynasty to frolic around, on the stage to entertain.

See the wide opening of Taifu, and look at the camp of holy virtue.

Build a high gate of the saga, floating double is too clear.

Standing in the sky, even the flying pavilion is in the west city.

Look up to the spring breeze and Mu Xi, and listen to the sorrowful song of a hundred birds.

The sky and clouds are standing, and the family's wishes are successful.

Yang Ren turned into a man in the Uine, and he was solemn in Shangjing.

However, Huan Wen is prosperous, how can it be enough to be sacred!

It's a good time! Benefiting the people.

The Royal Dragon Banner travels around, and returns to Luan to drive and Zhou Zhang.

Enhua and the four seas, Jiawu Fu and the people are healthy.

May the eternal solidity of the Stai be long, and the happiness will end in the past.

As soon as the words fell, Cao Zhi's friend Yang Xiu clapped his hands and applauded: "Excellent! Wonderful! ”

Yang Xiu is in Cao Zhi, and he is also a friend and a minister. Yang Xiu is also a well-known talent, he is so supportive, and others have no reason not to agree.

"The talent of the third prince can compete with the sun and the moon." Cao Zhi's party boasted of it.

"Hey......" Cao Cao was happy. One is impressed by his son's amazing talent, and the other is proud and honored by others' praise for Cao Zhi.

"My son is commendable, and I am very pleased to be a father. A good sentence 'May the Stai be eternal and solid, and the happiness will end in the past.' 'May the bronze bird stand firm forever, and may the joy never end.' Not bad, not bad. Come on, reward! Cao Cao waved his sleeves proudly, "Let Gu think about it, what will you appreciate." ”

Cao Cao smiled and opened his mouth, and when he looked at Cao Zhi again, he was attracted by Cao Pi next to him. Suddenly, he changed his mind: "Wait, wait. ”
