Cao Cao said that he wanted to introduce Liu Bei to the object, which Liu Jian couldn't think of.

And the object introduced by Cao Cao is someone else, but it is still the sister of Cao Ren and Cao Chun, which is really unexpected by Liu Jian.

However, since Cao Cao made this request, there must be a deep meaning in it.

Liu Jian and Cao Cao have known each other for a while, and they know his situation somewhat.

Although the current Cao Cao is not the Wei king in history who has the ability to replace the Han family.

Although he also has the heart of worrying about the country at present, he is still the eldest son of Cao Song's lineage in the final analysis, and for him, the gradual promotion and revitalization of the Cao family in Qian County is the most important thing.

According to Liu Jian's inference, every daughter of the Cao family will be used by the Cao family, and it will never be possible to intermarry with someone who has no interest.

is like Cao Ren's sister, who became the wife of Song Qi of the Fufeng Song family, and was related to the queen, this deal was extremely cost-effective for the Cao family back then.

Can Liu Bei's identity be compared with the Fufeng Song clan back then?

Liu Bei lost his father, and he relied on Liu Yuanqi to support him to get to where he is today, if he talks about his background, Liu Bei has no background.

It is true that Cao Ren and Cao Chun are currently in trouble, after all, after the fall of the Song family, their family has been implicated, the two brothers have not been able to come out of office, and Cao Chi also died more than a year ago.

But their family's heritage in Qian County is still the same.

Especially in the court, Cao Song and Cao Cao are now very mixed, especially Cao Cao is also quite close to the second generation of the Yuan family.

You asked the Cao family to choose Liu Bei, who has no family, was born by military exploits, and is currently just the son-in-law of a councilor, logically speaking, they are absolutely unwilling.

Therefore, Liu Bei is not their target.

If the Cao family's real purpose is not Liu Bei, then who are they targeting?

Obviously, it is Liu Jian.

It's just that if the Cao family wants to cooperate with themselves, there are ways, why should they have an in-law relationship?

What's the plot here?

Liu Jian didn't think that this matter was just a whim of Cao Cao.

If it weren't for Cao Song and other older generations of the Cao family behind their backs, Cao Cao would not dare to easily do this for Cao Ren, Cao Chun and their sister.

Moreover, even if they wanted to marry themselves, they could choose an auspicious day to visit the mansion and discuss this matter with themselves in detail, why should they talk about it on the day of Yuan Ji's treat?

Isn't it a bit inappropriate to talk about this on this occasion today? After all, this is Yuan Ji's home field.

Soon, Liu Jian reacted to an important question.

Maybe the Yuan family also knows about this.

And there may also be the arrangement and participation of the Yuan family, otherwise, why did Yuan Ji deliberately invite Liu Bei here today.

If his expectations are not bad, at least Yuan Ji in the Yuan family knows about this matter.

So the significance of Yuan Ji's doing this bureau today is also to promote this matter? But from Yuan Ji's point of view, what is the purpose of doing this?

Liu Jian looked up at Yuan Ji who was dancing in the field, and then said to Cao Cao: ....

"Meng De is very grateful, but this matter is very important, and the marriage of my brother is not something that I, a younger brother, can do."

Cao Cao smiled and said, "I'm just a proposal, I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry, it's just that we will study it slowly."

After saying that, he saw Cao Cao smiling and returned to his seat with Cao Ren and Cao Chun.

After a while, the dancers returned to their seats.

Yuan Ji sat on the main seat and suddenly said, "How old is Xuande this year?"

Liu Bei didn't seem to expect Yuan Ji to ask him about this, so he said, "Prepare for this year's double ten!"

Yuan Ji asked, "Have you ever been married?"

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Not yet."

Yuan Ji stood up leisurely and said with a smile: "There are four out of ten, and I haven't been married yet, it's really not advisable!" You are not young at this age, don't devote yourself to building meritorious deeds for the imperial court, you also need to think more about your own affairs."

After that, Yuan Ji looked at Liu Jian and said dissatisfiedly: "You kid, you have become a relative of your family, married the daughter of Zheng Jingshen's family, and now you have added Ding to import, why don't you give your brother a consultation!"

Liu Jian smiled awkwardly: "What the prince said is that it is the fault of Jian."

Yuan Ji suddenly turned his head to look at Cao Cao and said, "Meng De, I heard that there is a sister, beautiful and virtuous, right?"

Cao Cao arched his hand and said, "Back to the prince, that's exactly the case, my sister is fourteen years old, and she is just waiting to be married."

Yuan Ji looked at Liu Bei with a smile: "The Cao family, deeply cultivated in the local area, has a great reputation in the land, and the Yuan Sheng Gong is also a family of two thousand stones, if Xuande marries the daughter of the Cao family, he will not be insulted to you."

Liu Bei hurriedly got up and said, "Don't dare, don't dare! Liu Bei came from a humble background, how could he climb high!"

"What a climb is not high! You Liu Xuande is also a hero among people, can Meng De still look at the wrong person?"

Yuan Ji turned his head to look at Liu Jian: "Deran, what do you think of this matter? If you are willing, how about Yuan and Liu protect this medium for your Cao and Liu families?"

Liu Jian completely understood at this moment.

This is a bureau set up for the Yuan family and the Cao family to take advantage of their absence in Luoyang.

Yuan Ji raised this matter in front of everyone today, and he was afraid that he would not be able to refuse.

But it can't be agreed to at the moment, and it needs to be delayed.

Liu Jian needs to figure out the cause and effect behind this incident.

Then, I saw Liu Jian stand up and said: "Thanks to the gentleman and the marquis so kindly, it is the honor of my Liu family to be able to marry the Cao family of Qiaojun, but Brother Xuande still has a loving mother in the hall, if there is no order of his parents, only the words of the matchmaker to marry, it is really an unfilial act, I should write a letter to the family, send it to Zhuo County, and ask the mother about this matter, so that the conclusion can be made, and please don't blame the prince."

This prevarication is also reasonable.

The most important thing is that Liu Jian moved Liu Bei's mother out, which is in line with the humanistic way of the Han Dynasty, Rao is Yuan Ji's identity is detached, and it is impossible to forcibly force Liu Jian and Liu Bei to agree to him now.

Yuan Ji laughed and said, "This is true, this matter needs to be asked by the mother of Xuande before it can be concluded...... Brother Ren, I have to ask you about this matter, although the eldest brother is like a father, you can't slack off."

Cao Ren stood up and said, "What the prince has educated is that Ren should be the uncle of the Ming family!" ….

"Okay, okay, then Yuan will wait for the good news of the two of you."

……

……

Liu Jian didn't drink this wine very well, and when he and Liu Bei returned home with Liu Bei, they were worried all the time.

Seeing this, Liu Bei couldn't help but wonder: "Deran, what is wrong with you?"

Liu Jian muttered, "No, it's so decent, the Yuan family and the Cao family suddenly went together on this matter, what do they want to do?"

Liu Bei also said: "I also feel that something is wrong, the Cao clan in that county is a rare rich family in the Central Plains, and it is said that it has a great influence in the local area, so Cao Ren's sister, what kind of person can't find it, how can you have to look for me?" Even if I have some military merits, it is really not worth mentioning in their eyes, and this is clearly for you."

Liu Jian didn't speak, but thought seriously for a while, and then said slowly, "Will it ......?"

"Could it be anything?"

"Brother, look, the Yuan and Cao families sent to marry you and me, it should be a coincidence, but it is the Cao Ren branch, and the brother-in-law of Cao Ren is the former ruling Jinwu Song Qi, the brother of the Song family, who was destroyed by His Majesty, why is it such a coincidence that he is looking for their daughter to marry you?"

Liu Bei also seemed to be a little thoughtful.

"Brother Xian, do you mean that they want to use this to alienate you from your current majesty?"

Liu Jian nodded and said, "I guess it's the same, in fact, I've been between Your Majesty and the Yuan family, it's not been a day or two, Your Majesty has acquiesced in this matter, but Yuan Ji has never expressed his attitude in front of me, Yuan Ji treats me like a left and right."

arm, but His Majesty has more and more trust in me...... Maybe he's trying to use this to make my position clear!"

Liu Bei suddenly said, "Even if you don't want to make your position clear, if I marry Cao Ren, if Your Majesty knows, I will have a grudge against you in my heart!"

"Yes, Queen Song was deposed back then, and now His Majesty has killed all the Song clan and abandoned the corpses outside the city, which shows Your Majesty's dislike for the Song family!"

Liu Bei hurriedly said, "Deran, if this is the case, we still have to quickly reject the Cao family!"

Liu Jian narrowed his eyes: "Today, Yuan Ji deliberately mentioned this matter in front of all the guests at the banquet, making it clear that he didn't want to retreat from me, if I refused the Cao family, it would be equivalent to losing his face, but I am afraid that this friend will also come to an end."

When Liu Bei heard this, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

The belly of the people in Luoyang was black, and it was beyond Liu Bei's expectations.

Regardless of the Yuan family and the Cao family, one is more domineering and resourceful than the other.

Deran has been in the capital all these years, how has he been supported by himself?

But at the moment, Liu Jian was thinking about another thing.

is so decent, what did Yuan Ji suddenly force him to stand in line?

Something big must be happening.

But at present, the entire Han Dynasty, except for the war in Liangzhou, as far as I know, has nothing to do.
