Chapter 77: Liu Xie: That hateful Cao Mengde
When Chen Zhou was carrying out major events in his life.
Liu Xie passed Dong Cheng into the palace, and said very unhappily: "That Cao Mengde, marry his daughter to Chen Duzhi, they will be a family in the future, how should I win Chen Duzhi to my side?" ”
Cao Cao played this hand, and Dong Cheng was also caught off guard.
Obviously, Cao Cao knew Chen Zhou's abilities better and couldn't wait to marry his daughter and turn Chen Zhou into a family.
"Actually, Your Majesty can follow suit."
Dong Cheng thought for a moment and said.
Liu Xie asked, "How can I follow suit?" ”
Dong Cheng said: "Cao Cao can turn Chen Duzhi into a family, and so can Your Majesty!" Wouldn't it be better to turn Chen Duzhi into a relative of the emperor than to be Cao Cao's family? Your Majesty has great righteousness and can do many things. ”
Hearing this, Liu Xie thought it made sense.
If Chen Zhou becomes a relative of the emperor, he will assist himself in the future, get rid of all shackles, reorganize the Han family, and calm the world, everything is justified.
"What does Dong Qing mean, does he want me to marry the daughter of the clan to Chen Duzhi?"
Liu Xie looked up at Dong Cheng.
The women of the clan, when Dong Zhuo was in power, were almost ruined.
Even the Empress Dowager He, Princess Wannian, etc., can't avoid it.
However, some young princesses were spared, and by this time, they had just grown up, and there were many beautiful ones.
According to Dong Cheng's investigation, Chen Zhou likes beautiful women very much.
Through the beauty, it is indeed possible to operate it.
"The minister just suggested, but whether to do this or not, it is your majesty's decision."
Dong Cheng added.
Marrying a daughter of the Han clan to win over a cold family is somewhat unpleasant to be rumored.
I saw that Liu Xie thought about it for a long time, and decided: "I have a little sister, tomorrow I will draft an edict to seal the little sister Liu Ling as the princess of Xiangcheng, Dong Qing will find a time to arrange, I want Ling'er and Chen Duzhi to meet each other." ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
Dong Cheng shouted.
In fact, he also wanted to see how that Chen Duzhi was.
However, it was also his selfishness to push Liu Xie to win over Chen Zhou, wanting to take Chen Zhou for his own use and become his own person.
After coming to Xudu, after many inquiries, Dong Cheng came to a conclusion that the person who prompted the Son of Heaven to move the capital was Chen Zhou.
He believes that such a capable person and has the ability to strategize, and should not only serve Cao Cao.
Dong Cheng now needs someone who can help him recover his advantages and get out of Cao Cao's control, so he wants to use the name of the Son of Heaven to dig Cao Cao's wall on the grounds of the righteousness of the world.
——
Chen Zhou still doesn't know that he is being targeted.
Newly married Yan'er, he doesn't have to do anything, and he doesn't want to do it.
I just accompany Cao Shan every day, look at the snow at home, and nothing else.
Time is fast, and it's New Year's time again.
This year, there are more people in the family, and Chen Zhou finally feels the warmth of home.
The New Year is fast and has passed again.
Time entered the second year of Jian'an.
A lot of things will happen this year, such as the Battle of Wancheng, Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, Liu Bei came to take refuge, and the battle for Xuzhou was launched.
Chen Zhou has planned everything he wants to do this year, and with his prediction of history, he will still be able to stabilize this year.
"Xiaoyue."
Just as he was pondering, thinking about what was next, Cao Shan's voice interrupted his thoughts.
Then I saw a little girl, jumping up.
It was Xiahou Yue.
Chen Zhou has figured it out, this girl is the Xiahou family who picked up branches and was taken away by Zhang Fei, and the relationship with Cao Shan is quite good, the Xiahou family and the Chen family are not far away, separated by an alley, this girl likes to run over to Cao Shan to play when she has nothing to do.
"Xiaoyue, naughty again?"
Chen Zhou asked.
"I didn't."
Xiahou Yue is cute and loving.
Cao Shan then walked over and said with a smile: "Xiaoyue, don't run around, the snow outside hasn't melted yet, and the ground is slippery." ”
Chen Zhou rubbed the little girl's little head, looked up and looked outside, only to see several peonies in the front yard, with a little green shoots emerging.
Spring is back, and everything is coming back to life.
"It seems like we haven't been out for a long time, so what do you think of finding a time to go out for a walk in the suburbs in the past two days?"
Chen Zhou suggested.
"Yes, yes!"
Of course, Xia Houyue was pleased, and the child was very active.
Cao Shan was a little worried: "The current environment, it's very chaotic outside, it's okay to go out of the city for a walk, but you can't be too far away from the city, and you have to bring more people, I asked people to go back to Cao's house and ask the eldest brother for ......."
It's just that as soon as she finished speaking, Cao Ang happened to come.
"Sir."
After Cao Ang entered the door, he first handed over a famous thorn and said: "It's spring, the Son of Heaven ordered the national abbot Dong Cheng to organize the Spring Festival and invite Mr. to participate. ”
The Han Dynasty basically inherited the custom of welcoming spring in the Qin Dynasty, and in modern terms, it was to go to the green.
With the development of the Wei and Jin dynasties, the Spring Festival activities have become more exciting, with waterside and winding water, and the Spring Festival entertainment has formed a grand event.
The custom of welcoming spring, in addition to being a play for the nobles of the upper class, also has a symbolic meaning, that is, to understand the spring ploughing situation, but most of the nobles are just a simple play, who cares about how the farmers outside farm?
Chen Zhou's plan was in the middle of the pass, and his name spread all over the court.
There are many people who know him, even the Son of Heaven wants to meet Chen Zhou, and Dong Cheng is pushing behind him, so he has this invitation.
"Spring Festival?"
Chen Zhou glanced at the famous thorn brought by Cao Ang, and said: "It seems that the minister of the Manchu Dynasty has settled down and is idle, and he can't help but talk about elegance, but now that the spring is welcomed, don't you think it's too early?" ”
It's usually around March.
It's only spring now, and it doesn't seem appropriate.
Cao Ang said: "I don't know about this, but the Son of Heaven issued an edict, Dong Guozhang supervised it, invited a lot of literati, young talents, and they also said that they wanted to see Mr., and my father asked me to send the famous thorn." ”
This Spring Festival activity happened to be in line with Chen Zhou's idea of going out for a walk, so he put away his name and said: "You go back and tell them that I promised to go." ”
"When the time comes, I'll pick up Mr."
After Cao Ang finished speaking, he didn't disturb Chen Zhou's newlywed Yan'er.
Originally, he wanted to find Chen Zhou to give a lecture, but he hadn't been in class for a long time.
"Husband, spring is just in time."
Cao Shan smiled.
Xiahou Yue's eyebrows were crooked, and she smiled: "Brother-in-law, you will take me to play, right?" ”
"Let's go."
Chen Zhou said: "Anyway, we are at home, and we are bored. ”
"Okay!"
Xiahou Yue said happily.
The time written on the name thorn was five days later.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
This morning.
Cao Ang's carriage came to the door of Chen Zhou's house.
"Sir, I'm coming."
Hearing the voice, Chen Zhou went out.
The people boarded the carriage and walked slowly out of the city.
"Lord, are they coming?"
Chen Zhou asked.
Cao Ang shook his head and said: "Father, they said that the world is undecided, and they are not interested in recreation, and Mr. Xun is still trying to find a way to promote spring ploughing, and they are not interested in participating." ”
People who really want to do something don't want to waste the time of welcoming spring on this day, only those ministers and scholars are too idle and can settle down, and want to engage in some entertainment activities to have fun.
