Chapter 164: Cao Ang's Banquet
When Cao Pi opened the door, a delicate and bright girl walked in.
"Sister, why don't you rest so late?"
Cao Pi said with a wry smile.
Yes, the person who came was Cao Cao's eldest daughter, Cao Pi's half-sister Cao Qing.
Cao Qing looked at Cao Pi with a smile and said,
"I heard that you made a mistake today and were scolded by your father?"
Cao Pi's face darkened.
My sister, why don't you open which pot to mention?
"It is true."
"I also heard that you were molesting a man named Yang Ling and his wife?"
"Sister, if you're okay, I'm going to rest."
Cao Pi said perfunctorily.
"Of course I'm looking for you."
Cao Qing walked to the hall by herself, sat down, and suddenly sighed,
"Zihuan, I won't hide it from you, just now my father suddenly came to me and talked about my marriage."
"Isn't that a good thing?"
"But do you know who he's going to marry me to?"
"Who?"
Cao Pi had an ominous premonition in his heart, could it be Yang Ling?
Sure enough, what are you afraid of, Cao Qing nodded, her pretty face was full of unhappiness,
"It is said that it is Yang Ling who clashed with you today!"
"What?! This will never work, sister! ”
Cao Pi didn't want to think about it, so he refused.
Although Cao Ang, Cao Pi, Cao Qing and other brothers and sisters were not born to the same mother, under Cao Cao's strict education, they had a harmonious relationship with each other, but they were similar to their own children.
Joke.
He was just humiliated by Yang Ling today, and he was going to marry Cao Qing and be his brother-in-law?
How will I raise my head and be a man in the future?
"Sister, that Yang Ling is a womanizer, he hasn't married a wife yet, and I heard that there are several concubines in the family. If you marry in the past, won't you be wronged? ”
Cao Pi shook his head and sighed as he spoke, looking distressed.
"What? He's such a person?! I'm going to tell my father that I don't want to marry someone like that! ”
Cao Qing pursed her red lips and complained in a coquettish voice.
"Sister, don't be impatient!"
Cao Pi hurriedly grabbed her and comforted her softly,
"Do you think your father's character will allow you to refuse?"
Cao Qing thought about it, then shook his head and said,
"Of course not."
Cao Cao held power in the court, and naturally said the same thing at home, and no one dared to challenge his authority.
"So we're going to have to find another way."
Cao Pi groaned.
At this moment, Cao Qing's eyes suddenly lit up,
"Zihuan, my sister has an idea!"
"What's the idea?"
"Since my father's side doesn't make sense, let's go to Yang Ling and let him take the initiative to refuse to his father!"
Cao Qing snorted lightly.
"I'm afraid it won't work, then Yang Ling is finally able to get in touch with our Cao family, how can he refuse lightly?"
Cao Pi was a little unimpressed.
In his opinion, how could a person like Yang Ling refuse the opportunity to marry a Cao woman?
"Let's think of it, let him know the difficulty and retreat."
Cao Qing sneered and whispered a few words in Cao Pi's ear.
Cao Pi's eyes widened suddenly,
"This ...... Is this possible? ”
"How could it be?"
Cao Qing squinted at him,
"Zihuan, even if you don't want to humiliate that Yang Ling, at least you have to think about your sister, right?"
Cao Pi hesitated again and again, remembering the humiliation he received today, and gritted his teeth and said,
"Okay, sister, I promise you!"
"That's great!"
Cao Qing was overjoyed and said with a smile,
"Tomorrow, we will humiliate Yang Ling fiercely and let him know that I, Cao Qing, am not something he can hope for!"
……
After Yang Ling returned to his mansion, Gao Shun, Gan Ning and others came to visit one after another.
As soon as he returned to the room after sending off the guests, Mi Zhen rushed into his arms with a gust of fragrant wind.
"Thank you, husband......"
She raised her head and looked at Yang Ling, her beautiful eyes full of deep affection.
Today, Yang Ling taught Cao Cao's son Cao Pi a lesson for her, how could this not move her.
"You are my wife, where is the need to thank you?"
Yang Ling sat on the bed with Mi Zhen in his arms, but he sighed.
"Why is the husband sighing, could it be that there is something bothering?"
Mi Zhen said suspiciously.
"Before the husband returned, the lord told the husband that he intended to marry his daughter to me."
Yang Ling smiled helplessly.
As soon as she heard this, although she was a little apprehensive in her heart, Mi Zhen still smiled and said,
"Isn't that a good thing? If the husband marries the daughter of the lord, he will surely rise to prominence in the future......"
"Madame doesn't know, there is actually something hidden here."
Yang Ling lowered his voice and told Mi Zhen about Cao Cao's suspicion of himself.
"What? There is such a thing. ”
Mi Zhen was shocked and angry,
"The husband is loyal to the lord, and he is so suspicious of you!"
"Although the lord is majestic and a hero in the world, he is suspicious by nature."
Yang Ling sighed slightly.
"Husband, no matter how loyal you are to your lord, you must consider yourself and our sisters."
Mi Zhen said sincerely.
Hearing her say this, Yang Ling's heart moved.
His initial purpose of defecting to Cao Cao was very simple, that is, he was dissatisfied with Liu Bei, and he wanted to assist Cao Cao to calm the world and enjoy glory and wealth in the future.
But he didn't expect that Cao Cao's suspicion was so big!
He is so faithful, but he is still under suspicion!
Maybe it's really as Mi Zhen said, I still have to prepare more in case of emergency.
Yang Ling said secretly.
Nothing was said all night.
Next.
In order to prevent a recurrence of yesterday's situation, Yang Ling specially sent several guards to accompany Mi Zhen.
As soon as he sent Mi Zhen away and returned to the room, a subordinate came to report,
"Master, there is a person outside the door who claims to be sent by the son, saying that he has something important to see you."
Yang Ling didn't think much about it, so he got up and walked out.
"I've seen sir!"
The person sent by Cao Ang saluted Yang Ling,
"My son-in-law is entertaining guests at the manor outside the city, and he specially ordered the villain to come and invite Mr. over."
Didn't Cao Ang know that he didn't like to show his face, why would he invite himself to a banquet?
Yang Ling was a little strange,
"Did your son-in-law say anything else?"
"No, he just said that please go sir."
The man replied.
"Okay, I see, let me go change my clothes."
Yang Ling didn't think much about it, returned to his room, and changed into a formal suit.
He got into the carriage brought by Cao Ang's subordinates and ran all the way out of the city.
Today is sunny, autumn is high and cool, the weather is neither cold nor hot, it is a good time for autumn travel.
Many people in Xudu City also went out of the city for outings.
The subordinate took Yang Ling all the way to a manor.
I saw that outside the manor, all kinds of carriages were already parked.
As soon as Yang Ling got off the carriage, he felt that something was wrong.
Because those who go in and out of the manor are either young talents or beautiful women.
It doesn't look like an ordinary banquet, it's more like a unique blind date meeting.
