"Disciple Cao Zixuan, bow to the teacher." Cao Ang's face was solemn, wearing a white scholar's robe covering his body, and in the Sikong Mansion, he knelt down and bowed to Jia Xu in a very dignified manner.

Jia Xu smiled at Cao Cao as if he was sitting on pins and needles, in order to alleviate the embarrassment in his heart, who would have thought that this Cao Gongzi was playing for real, and the father and son were somewhat there, and the meaning of forced buying and selling was in it.

Cao Cao placed the cup full of honey on Cao Ang's hands, and the latter nodded, and presented it to Jia Xu very solemnly, "Teacher, please use it slowly." Jia Xu had no choice but to nod and take it, and took a sip, this apprenticeship of buying and selling was completed.

Mrs. Ding stepped forward to salute Jia Xu, who got up in fear and said in fear: "Madam, don't be embarrassed. ”

"Mr. Jia, what are you talking about, I will rely on Mr. to teach me more about this child in the future." Mrs. Ding said with a smile, seeing that things had developed to such a point, Jia Xu responded helplessly: "In this way, it will be disrespectful in the future." ”

"Childe...... Yes...... Ziyu, you get up. Jia Xu raised his hand and said.

"Follow the orders of your teacher." After Cao Ang got up, Cao Cao held a pair of seals and presented them to Jia Xu with both hands and said: "The dog is the general of the tiger Ben, and Mr. is his teacher, how can he get a rank higher than him." Jia Xu took the ribbon.

"Jijingo?" Jia Xu's eyes widened in astonishment, and he was responsible for the tasks of patrolling, prohibiting violence, and supervising in the capital, and was in charge of the Northern Army, and the guard of the Southern Army guarding the palace ban.

In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu of Han Guangwu once had "Shi Eun as the ruling Jinwu, and marrying a wife should be Yin Lihua!" This shows the weight of the authority of this position.

"How can a vulgar man be in this position?" Jia Xu swallowed his saliva and refused.

Cao Cao looked at Jia Xu with a disgusted face, and said: "Sir, where are these words, you can be a dog teacher, it is the glory of my Cao family, if Mr. is unwilling to take this position, is it possible that he dislikes the low rank?" ”

Jia Xu waved his hand again and again, and said, "Don't misunderstand, Xu has no such intention." ”

"The dog is the general of the tiger ben, and the official rank of Mr. as his division must not be lower than him, and I hope that Mr. will not shirk." Seeing that Cao Cao didn't seem to be a fake, Cao Ang was also looking at himself hopefully, Jia Xu sighed lightly, and finally took over this "hot potato" under Cao Cao's fist.

"Mr. is tired of the journey, and the concubine dares to ask Mr. to go and rest." Mrs. Ding said.

Jia Xu said: "I'm tired of Mrs. Lao." He bowed to Cao Cao, and then followed Mrs. Ding to the guest room.

After leaving, Cao Cao took a long breath, since the edict of the pocket, I haven't been so happy for a long time, and now Wancheng, Huainan, Runan three counties are all in my hands, looking at the Central Plains, only Xiapi is not in his pocket, and his own territory can finally be on par with Yuan Shao.

He is not a person who is stingy with official positions, as long as it is beneficial to himself, an official position of 2,000 stone is at his fingertips.

"Father, I'm very happy to see your face." Cao Ang said with a smile.

Cao Cao stroked his beard, glanced at him and said, "Speaking of which, why do you insist on worshipping Jia Wenhe as a teacher?" In Cao Cao's heart, he belonged to Cao Angbai's hermit Confucians. Such as Pang Degong of Lumen Mountain, Sima Hui of Shuijing, Zheng Xuan of Confucianism and others.

Cao Ang drank all the honey syrup in the cup, wiped his mouth and said: "My teacher, who is nicknamed "Poisoner" to give advice and is ruthless and vicious, I have always felt that I am very weak in this part of my heart, so I want to apprentice and learn some experience, after all, is Ci not in charge of the army?" ”

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, how could Cao Cao not hear Cao Ang's extraneous meaning. "A family feast is imminent." Cao Cao made up his mind in his heart.

"You haven't told the child why you're happy." Cao Ang asked as he diverted the subject.

"Without him, he assumed the position of the Han family, lamented for his father's nights, and worked hard to finally govern this fragmented Han family." Since the Taiping Rebellion, the thirteen states of the Han dynasty can be described as scattered, and the princes have been divided, so large that they are entrenched in several states. As small as a city and a county, all of them are occupied by princes.

At that time, the degree of dispersion of the Han dynasty was comparable to that of the Spring and Autumn Period.

If it weren't for Cao Cao's adoption of Xun Yu's strategy, welcoming the Son of Heaven to Xudu, appointing Yingchuan and Hanoi scholars, coupled with the help of clan forces, after years of conquest and recuperation, to control the hinterland of the Central Plains, I don't know what it looks like today.

And today's pattern, in the northwest, the people are fierce. Although the material is scarce, it has been the birthplace of high-quality soldiers and horses since ancient times, since the collapse of Li Guo's forces, Ma Teng and Han Sui inherited the legacy of the Xiliang Army and entrenched in the land of Yongliang and Liangzhou.

Zhang Lu governed Hanzhong with the concept of Wudou Mijiao, and was willing to become the natural barrier of Liu Zhang, the country of abundance, Yizhou, Liu Zhang, like his father, was called the dog of the house by Cao Ang, although it was a joke, but it was also the first generation.

Because of its barren land and sparse population, Jiaozhou Shixie almost never intervenes in the contradictions between the princes.

Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng got the four major families of Cai, Kuai, Pang and Huang to hold the arms of the eight counties of Jingxiang except Wancheng, and it is said that now Xinye is entrusted with Liu Xuande to guard it, acting as a strategic buffer zone in Jingzhou.

The six counties of Jiangdong have been conquered by the ruthless methods of the little overlord Sun Ce and Sun Bofu, and they have a grudge against Jingzhou to kill their father, so the contradiction between Jiangdong and Jingzhou is becoming more and more serious.

Lu Bu swallowed the troops and went down, Cao Cao was ordered by the Son of Heaven not to be subordinate, and Sili, Yan, Yu, and Xu Sizhou were in hand, and their strength was strong.

The general Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu, with the prestige of the fourth and third dukes, brought millions of soldiers and thousands of generals! Attacking Hebei, controlling Hebei, Qing, You, and the four places, Zhao Yun appeared near Xudu as a white horse Yicong, which shows that Yuan Shao got the help of Wuhuan and other foreign races in Jieqiao, defeated Gongsun Boqi, and the entire territory of Youzhou fell into the hands of Yuan Benchu, and his close enemy was only Gongsun Du, who occupied the four counties of Liaodong......

"Does my father want to fight Yuan Benchu?" Cao Ang asked, he was a little worried, Cao Cao would break his wrist with Yuan Shao after his strength expanded, but Cao Cao shook his head with a smile and said: "No, fighting with the original at this moment is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, how can a father be so unwise." Cao Ang breathed a sigh of relief, his father had a clear account in his heart, so he was relieved.

It is true that Cao Cao's territory is not much different from Yuan Shao at this moment, but Cao Cao is located in the Central Plains, which is watched by all the princes, and he needs to place his soldiers and horses on all sides.

"You are studying art with Jia Wenhe, not only will your father not oppose the opposite, but I will also support it, which will be beneficial to my implementation of the decree in the future." For the first time, Cao Cao told his plan in front of his son.

Cao Cao had to admit that this eldest son was very much appreciated by himself, because he was able to figure out and see through his purpose from his engagement to the Zhuge clan, and based on his own support, and his decrees in Huainan and Runan coincided with his own intentions, which is why Cao Cao still strongly supported Cao Ang despite the strong opposition of the Hanoi Shi clan.

The ultimate significance of meritocracy is not that the heroes of the world are all in my hands, that is only a superficial phenomenon, what Cao Cao wants to do is to change the existing pattern, the pattern of prosperity who the scholars support, as a qualified prince, does not want to be held by the scholars, is unwilling to divide the interests of their hands.

Issuing a meritocracy, so that the children of the Han Sect can see hope, serve themselves, and slowly disintegrate the power of the Shi clan in the world, this is what Cao Cao will eventually do, and he also knows that this is a huge project, which can be completed by not a generation, so the heir to whom he belongs needs to be firm and implement his strategy and will.

I'm afraid that only Cao Pi's mother and son don't know that Cao Cao no longer cares about Cao Pi, but has begun to vigorously support and cultivate Cao Ang, very simply, Cao Ang is not only a son-in-law, compared to Cao Pi, who is willing to be a pawn, Cao Ang's scattered land is more in line with the unimplemented decree in Cao Cao's heart, and will even let Cao Cao lay the foundation in the near future.

This made Cao Cao extremely happy, "My father almost never mentioned this thought, because it seemed to the world to be illusory, until I saw a letter from Zixiao, saying that what you did in the two counties coincided with what I thought." That's when I wondered, how did you get my thoughts? Cao Cao looked at Cao Angdao with burning eyes.

"The thoughts in my father's heart are unfathomable, and the child is stupid and can't guess what you think." Cao Ang shook his head and denied it, slandering in his heart, "Your old meritocracy is the first version of eliminating the Shi clan, and my "land reform and elimination of the strong" is the ultimate version of the socialist core values path of strengthening the country and enriching the people. ”

"Then why did you implement land additions in the two counties?" Cao Cao frowned and asked puzzled. Cao Ang blinked and smiled: "Naturally, you have a good heart, and what you and my father and son want to do is just one thing." ”

"Do you really know what I think and do?" Cao Cao was a little incredulous, and asked in a confirmed tone, Cao Ang whispered in Cao Cao's ear, and Cao Cao's expression was suddenly very exciting.

Cao Cao patted Cao Ang's shoulder heavily, and said meaningfully: "He, I know me well!" ”

"Father's praise is false." Cao Ang laughed evilly and said. I really didn't expect that Cao Ang's idea was more advanced, more perfect, and more feasible than his own father.

"If it weren't for your strategy to lure the Jingxiang clan into the game, I don't know when this plan will come out." Hearing what Cao Ang said, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "What Zi Yu said, I deeply think that there are still few examples of becoming a scholar clan and defeating a scholar clan?" "The practice of the scholars not putting their eggs in one basket, Cao Cao, the commonplace, is also deeply hated, such as Xun Yu assisting Cao Cao, but his younger brother Xun Chen first worked for Yuan Shu, and then became one of Yuan Shao's advisors.

At the time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought a decisive battle, and it was not the decisive battle that maximized the benefits, but the Yingchuan Xun clan, so exquisite calculations had to be left unchecked, because the children of the Shi clan were all well-chested and well-scheming, and they really couldn't do it without their help.

The ultimate goal of Cao Cao's father and son is to completely break and change the existing situation, the only move is to make the poor feel that they have a bright day, the land reform is to let the common people know the etiquette, food and clothing are enough to know the honor and disgrace, and only when they are full can they think about other things, so that the people are fed and clothed, and they will willingly support the leader, with the cold family, the people, the clan, and the military power...... and other forces to fight against the scholars.

"I don't believe it, I can't cure you with so many buffs in hand?" Cao Ang thought viciously in his heart.
