Chapter Seventy-Three: Wei Wu Whips
On February 4, when Cao Ren was about to set off to attack Huangmen Pavilion, Cao Cao couldn't hold back.
Since seeing Mrs. Zou that day, Cao Cao has been thinking about it day and night.
It's just that he has just subdued Zhang Xiu, and he immediately wants to move his family, I'm afraid it will cause trouble, so he can only hold back first.
But after seven or eight days, it was a while in Wancheng, and on the fourth of February, Cao Cao was very drunk in the city and staggered out of the mansion.
Cao Anmin, Dian Wei and others followed, Cao Cao only felt unbearable after drinking, and asked left and right: "Are there any prostitutes in this city?" ”
Cao Anmin immediately knew what he meant, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Uncle, my little nephew passed by the street yesterday and saw a woman on the side of the building, who was born very beautifully, as if it was Mrs. Zou. ”
"Oh?"
Cao Cao suddenly remembered the beautiful woman he saw at the door of the mansion that day, and he only felt that a certain insect was in his head, and hurriedly said, "Take me quickly." ”
Dian Wei hurriedly persuaded: "Sikong, Mrs. Zou is Zhang Ji's wife, Zhang Ji is Zhang Xiu's uncle, and he has recently passed away, I am afraid ....."
Cao Cao pushed away Dian Wei's support and snorted coldly: "How is Zhang Xiu?" A defeated general dares to be angry in front of me? Anmin, take me quickly. ”
"Yes, uncle."
Cao Anmin supported Cao Cao, followed by Dian Wei and fifty soldiers, and walked towards Mrs. Zou's house.
It turned out that after Zhang Xiu surrendered to Cao Cao, he gave up the Nanyang Taishou Mansion to Cao Cao to live in, and he and his family all moved outside.
At that time, it was normal for women to go to the street, unlike after the Southern Song Dynasty, because of the confinement of science, so that women could not go out of the door, so when Mrs. Zou went to the street, she was seen by Cao Anmin.
The group came to the courtyard where Mrs. Zou lived, knocked on the door, and a maid came out to open the door, and when she saw that it was Cao Cao, she hurriedly went in to call Mrs. Zou, and Mrs. Zou immediately came to the courtyard to greet her.
"The concubine has seen the general."
Seeing that Cao Cao had come to the courtyard, Mrs. Zou was busy bending her knees and half-squatting to salute Cao Cao.
"Madame, please."
Cao Cao's eyes were majestic, he glanced left and right, and saw that the soldiers around him were looking at him, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Does Madam know me?" ”
Mrs. Zou hesitated slightly, and said with obvious reluctance on her face: "I have heard the general's prestige for a long time, and I have the honor to worship you today." ”
"Hmm."
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, as if he was looking at his prey, and said in a calm tone: "I will accept Zhang Xiu's surrender for my wife, otherwise the Zhang clan will be wiped out." ”
Mrs. Zou trembled slightly, then reluctantly squeezed out a smile and saluted sideways: "I really feel the grace of the general's rebirth." ”
"Well, it's a blessing to see Mrs. today."
Cao Cao nodded, looked left and right, and suddenly took two steps forward, came to Mrs. Zou's side, her face was almost close to her face, smelled the fragrance on her body, and asked softly, "I wonder if Madame would like to share a table with me tonight?" ”
The surrounding soldiers didn't squint, pretending not to hear.
Dian Wei's face twitched slightly, and his head turned to other places, only to feel that his spicy eyes couldn't see.
On the contrary, Cao Anmin already knew his uncle's temperament, and when he raised his head to look at the sky, he almost whistled to indicate that it had nothing to do with him.
Broke into someone's yard with fifty armor soldiers, and threatened other people's weak women in his words.
said that if it weren't for Mrs. Zou's face, the Zhang family would have to be wiped out.
Finally, I brazenly asked to sleep together.
Everyone present knows that they are embarrassed, what is the difference between insulting others?
And Mrs. Zou was really taken aback, her face was embarrassed, and there seemed to be tears flashing in her eyes, this kind of request was a great shame in the eyes of people at that time, especially widows.
Thinking of the threat in Cao Cao's words, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said aggrievedly: "It is a blessing for a concubine to be able to serve the general. ”
"Hahaha."
Cao Cao laughed, immediately went up to make a move, and carried Mrs. Zou into the house, ready to cheer love.
Seeing this, Dian Wei and Cao Anmin hurriedly asked the armor to fence off the small courtyard, and even Cao Anmin went out, leaving Dian Wei alone in the courtyard, his eyes wide open, escorting Cao Cao to be happy inside.
Although he didn't want to listen to the corner, he couldn't stop the sound coming out. It made him red-faced and very uncomfortable, so he could only walk around the yard and play with weights with a grinding plate.
And at this moment, Cao Cao didn't know that when he broke into Mrs. Zou's courtyard drunk, a maid had already hurried out the back door to report to Zhang Xiuyu.
"What?"
In the barracks of the Xiliang Army, Zhang Xiu was furious when he learned the maid's report, and did not notify Jia Xu to come over to discuss, and rushed into the city with the cavalry.
Soon he came to the outside of the courtyard, and Cao Anmin saw that he was menacing, and immediately ordered the armor to go up to stop him, and asked, "Stop!" ”
"Who's making a fuss?"
Dian Wei heard the movement and walked out of the courtyard, looking at Zhang Xiu with a calm gaze, and his hand had already touched his waist.
Zhang Xiu saw that the city was full of Cao Cao soldiers, and Dian Wei of the three armies of Yongguan was also there, so he instantly calmed down, turned over and dismounted, and barely squeezed out a smile and said, "Why are the two generals here?" This is my aunt's yard, and I'm about to say hello. ”
Now it became that Cao Anmin and Dian Wei's faces were a little wrong, and they came to say hello to their elders, but the elders of the people were now being ..... by Cao Cao in the room. It's a shame to pass it out.
"This ...... This ......"
Both of them squeaked, and after being silent for a while, Cao Anmin found a reason and said, "Sikong..... Sikong was discussing important matters with Mrs. Zou. ”
Zhang Xiuqiu asked: "Since it is important to discuss important matters with my aunt, it must be related to me, why don't you call me?" ”
"Forehead ......"
Cao Anmin slurred: "This ...... It's not about generals, either. ”
Zhang Xiu glared at him and said: "My aunt is my uncle's wife, Cao Gong is looking for her to discuss things, it's nothing more than talking about my uncle or me, can Cao Gong still find my aunt and have other things?" ”
Cao Anmin was also anxious, and snorted coldly: "What is the matter with Cao Gong looking for his wife, and what does it have to do with the general?" The general is just a defeated general, so let's take care of ourselves first. ”
"How can it be!"
Zhang Xiu was suddenly anxious, and stepped forward to rush in.
"Huh?"
Dian Wei's burly body took a step forward and pressed towards him like a sky, giving Zhang Xiu a huge sense of oppression.
You must know that as a northland hero, Zhang Xiu's own force value is not weak, and he belongs to the second-rate top level, about 85 to 90, and his figure can be regarded as tall and mighty, compared with ordinary people, his strength is very strong.
But the problem is that Dian Wei is nearly two meters tall, his burly body is amazing, and he can carry the Ding with tendons and flesh, and in front of him, Zhang Xiu, who is one meter eight, is as deterrent as a child.
Therefore, seeing Dian Wei coming, Zhang Xiu's heart was empty, but he was unwilling to show his cowardice, and snorted coldly: "I will never give up on this matter." ”
Then he turned and rode away.
After he left, about half an hour later, Cao Cao's side was finished, put on his clothes and walked to the courtyard refreshed.
At this time, Dian Wei had already entered the courtyard, and Cao Cao asked him, "What happened just now?" How do you hear someone making noise outside. ”
Dian Wei went up and told the matter again, and said at the end: "Sikong, look at what Zhang Xiu means, I'm afraid it's ......."
"Huh?"
Cao Cao's narrow eyes narrowed into slits, and he sneered: "Just because he is a defeated general, he dares to threaten me?" In a few days, find an excuse to kill him. ”
"Yui."
Dian Wei said he understood.
Cao Cao looked back at the courtyard again, recalling the residual warmth of his fingertips just now, and for a while there was a desire in his heart again, so he said, "Wait and wait outside." ”
"Forehead ......"
Dian Wei knew that he was about to whip again, so he went out again.
After he left, Cao Cao returned to the house, and when he saw Madame Zou lying on the bed and wrapped in the quilt, he grinned and got in.
He actually didn't know that when he was talking to Dian Wei in the courtyard just now, Mrs. Zou went to the foyer to hide and eavesdrop, and she heard Cao Cao's plan to kill Zhang Xiu in a few days.
Seeing Cao Cao coming back at this moment, she pretended not to know: "What's going on outside?" Why is it so noisy? ”
Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's just that Zhang Xiu came to make trouble." ”
Mrs. Zou's face turned pale suddenly, and she cried: "Zhang Xiu knows about this? I am his uncle, but he knows about the ugly things, how will I see people in the future? ”
"Forehead ......"
Cao Cao was thinking of continuing, and when he saw her crying, he hurriedly comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, he was just suspicious, he didn't know about it, and he was sent away by my nephew, and then I said that I was looking for you to discuss important matters." ”
Mrs. Zou wiped her tears and said: "I see, it's just that I have lived in the city for a long time, and the general often comes to the courtyard, Zhang Xiu must be suspicious, and I am afraid that outsiders will talk about it, which will make me lose face." ”
Cao Cao thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow, my wife and I will go to live in the village outside the city, and then how about announcing that my wife has returned to Xiliang?" ”
"That's very good."
Mrs. Zou agreed, and the two began to turn the dragon and phoenix again.
And after Cao Cao fired a few times, coupled with the strength of the wine and physical strength, and fell asleep, Mrs. Zou ordered the maid to go out through the back door, under the pretext of going to buy some things and come back, to report to Zhang Xiu.
In the final analysis, Cao Cao's behavior is still a great shame for Mrs. Zou, but she is strong, and she is also forced to be helpless.
Therefore, although she didn't have any thoughts, when she heard that Cao Cao wanted to kill Zhang Xiu, she would still choose to help Zhang Xiu.
After Zhang Xiu went back, he angrily threw things everywhere in the barracks.
When Jia Xu heard the news, he hurriedly came to dissuade him, he entered the tent, and when he saw the mess all over the place, he said, "General, why is this?" ”
"Uncle, should I be willing to suffer this humiliation?"
Zhang Xiu kicked over the table and was furious.
Jia Xu persuaded: "The general is angry, the general is angry." ”
"Anger?"
Zhang Xiu said angrily: "Someone insults your aunt, can you be indifferent? ”
Jia Xu looked embarrassed.
He didn't expect Cao Cao to come to this hand, his uncle had just passed away, and you bullied other people's aunts, which is also outrageous.
It's just that at this time, he didn't want to rebel against Cao Cao.
Jia Xu's family is no longer seeking the country, and he is an extremely selfish person, who knows very well that there is no benefit in falling out with Cao Cao now, so he also sighed: "Alas, general, Cao's army is powerful, and we are weak alone, and now fighting with Cao Cao is tantamount to a dead end." ”
"Isn't there anything Uncle can do?"
Zhang Xiu said mournfully: "Cao thief humiliated me so much, if you don't take revenge, how can you behave?" ”
"This ......"
Jia Xu hesitated, in fact, if he suddenly attacked, it was not without a chance.
It's just that he still doesn't want to turn his face with Cao Cao.
After all, Cao Cao is Zhang Xiu's aunt, not his aunt.
"Liu Biao!"
Zhang Xiu suddenly remembered and said, "If you want to repair a book, please ask Liu Biao to come to help?" ”
Jia Xu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Liu Biao doesn't practice martial arts, and his soldiers and horses were easily defeated by the general, rely on him?" Does the general think it can be trusted? ”
Zhang Xiu suddenly fell silent.
Although Liu Biao has a lot of soldiers and horses, he can still see the army of civil servants.
Others?
In the case of the same number, or even if the number of troops is twice as small, 30,000 Xiliang troops fight 60,000 Jingzhou soldiers, he dares to destroy Liu Biao.
Seeing that his mood was a little more stable, Jia Xu said with relief: "General, the "Analects" says: If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. You might as well endure this matter, and you may not be able to find an opportunity to take revenge in the future. ”
"Damn!"
Zhang Xiuyu couldn't get rid of his hatred, pulled out his sword and slashed at the table.
At this moment, a soldier came in from the camp outside and said, "General, Mrs. Zou's maid is here." ”
"Let her in."
Zhang Xiu hurriedly shouted, he was eager to know the current situation of Mrs. Zou.
The maid came in and bowed, "General." ”
"How's my aunt?"
Zhang Xiu asked hurriedly.
The maid said with a sad face: "Madam...... Madame ......."
"Say."
Zhang Xiu roared.
The maid was taken aback, and said with a sad face: "Madame has been insulted by the surnamed Cao. ”
"Cao thief!"
Zhang Xiu was so angry that she trembled and was furious.
The maid said, "Madame said...... said that she overheard the man surnamed Cao telling the guards in the courtyard that she was going to find an excuse to kill the general in a few days because of the general's disrespectful words. ”
"What?"
Zhang Xiu glared angrily, that Cao thief his aunt and wanted to kill me?
Jia Xu suddenly screamed in his heart that it was not good.
I comforted Zhang Xiu a few words before, and reluctantly calmed him, so that if I endure it, I will be able to become an official in the court in the future.
After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that now Cao Cao is coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and the momentum of growth is impossible to stop, and defecting to Cao Cao is the most correct thing.
As a result, Cao Cao couldn't control the lower half of his body, he got other people's aunts, and he had to kill people's families, this, this, this, this.......
For a while, Jia Xu didn't know what to say.
Now that the news has leaked out, Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao are obviously incompatible, and it is impossible to be relieved.
Zhang Xiu really looked at Jia Xu, and said viciously like a hungry tiger: "Uncle, what do you say now?" ”
"Ugh."
Jia Xu sighed and said bitterly: "Even so, we can only strike first, in this battle, Cao Cao must be killed, otherwise, there will be endless troubles." ”
Zhang Xiu was overjoyed and said, "Please also ask my uncle to teach me." ”
Jia Xu hesitated for a moment, walked to Zhang Xiu's side, and said in his ear: "Cao Cao learned that the general hated him, and he would inevitably flee into the barracks. We can only do this and this and this way. ”
Zhang Xiu nodded and said with a cruel smile: "I know my uncle, this time, I must kill the thief to relieve the hatred in my heart." ”
