39. Inaugurated as the lieutenant of the northern part of Luoyang
Zhao Zhong, a native of Anping, was a eunuch.
Both he and Zhang Rang were favored and reused by Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty.
Liu Hong often openly contempts his face and says: "Zhang Changshou is my father, and Zhao Changshou is my mother."
Moreover, he often ordered Zhao Zhong to preside over the court meeting on his behalf.
It can be seen to what extent Liu Hong trusts Zhao Zhongdu.
Let a eunuch preside over the court meeting, what will the civil and military officials think?
Therefore, now, many ministers of civil and military affairs have some feelings: the world will be chaotic.
Especially a ghost like Dong Zhuo.
He caught the signal early.
He seized the opportunity early and held on to the military power.
~~
Cao Song knew that as long as Zhao Zhong was convinced, Zhang Rang would not dare to do anything to Cao Cao.
And so it was.
With Zhao Zhong coming forward, the imperial court investigated Cao Cao's case, and it couldn't go on.
Between eunuchs, they have to give face to each other.
Moreover, Zhang Can's death was proved by someone to be committed by Yuan Shao.
~~
Between Zhang Rang and Yuan Shao, sharp confrontation began.
Yuan Shao wants to be reused for the time being, but it is impossible.
In order to clamp down on Yuan Shao, Zhang Rang brought Yuan Shu with him.
Zhang Rang knew that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were at odds.
That's okay, let you Yuan brothers fight.
When two tigers fight, one will be injured.
~~
After Cao Cao visited his father, he went back to his room.
Because there were a lot of gold bricks and dozens of chests of gold hidden in his room.
So, before he left home this time, he locked the door.
Previously, he had never locked the door.
Who would dare to go to the bedroom of the eldest son of the Cao family easily?
Cao Cao returned to the door at this time and took out the key to unlock it.
~~
Ding Hui came quietly.
She missed her husband after seeing her for many days.
Most importantly, she wants to have a son.
Her one-third of an acre of land needs her husband's fierce ox to work hard.
Ding Huidan saw that Cao Cao's behavior was a little weird, so she angrily scolded Cao Cao: "Why do you want to lock the door? What do you mean? What's the secret inside? Why didn't you come to see me when you got home and saw your father? Is there some beautiful woman hidden outside? If you dare to betray me, I will castrate you when you fall asleep one night. ”
Cao Cao turned sideways and saw this beautiful tigress, and he was a little afraid in his heart, mainly because he didn't have the energy to deal with these tedious housework.
So, he quickly explained: "There is no secret. It's just that there are some martial arts secrets, and I don't want people to know. ”
~~
Ding Hui didn't care what he explained, he just didn't believe his words.
She knew that her husband was a great man.
What woman doesn't like such a man?
And his stomach is not angry, and his position in the Cao family is threatened at any time.
Actually, she was overly concerned.
~~
Cao Cao is very affectionate and righteous.
He wouldn't abolish her just because her stomach wasn't angry.
~~
At this time, Ding Hui stretched out his hand to push him away and pushed the door in first.
The front of me was full of gold, very dazzling.
Wow! A room full of gold bricks and lots of chests.
She froze.
Although the gold bricks were wrapped in cloth bags, they still shone brightly through the coarse cloth. She opened some more chests, and they were full of neatly arranged gold, all of them the same size.
Oh, my God! What's going on?
A few days ago, my husband asked my father-in-law for money, but he couldn't, and he asked Liu Yan to borrow money but was refused.
Now, he's suddenly so rich!
Could it be that a famous lady gave it to him?
~~
Cao Cao hurriedly dodged in.
He closed the door with his backhand and whispered, "There is no place to put my father's newly brought gold, so I will leave it here for the time being." If you don't believe me, you ask your father to go. ”
In this way, he frightened Ding Hui.
He was afraid that Ding Hui would move these gold bricks away.
He didn't want to go to his wife to ask for money in the future.
This is the capital for him to form the tiger and leopard ride, and he can't move it.
Otherwise, Ding Hui would definitely move these gold bricks and gold to her.
Who doesn't like money?
But how dare Ding Hui take Cao Song's money?
~~
In this family, Cao Song is the head of the family!
However, looking at so much money, she didn't take some money, and she seemed to be sorry for herself.
After all, his stomach has not bulged so far, and his status is unstable.
Cao Ang, the son of the concubine Liu Yan, became Cao Cao's eldest son.
It is very likely that Liu Yan will be corrected as his wife.
In the future, wouldn't he want to curry favor with Liu Yan?
No, no, no!
Even if you can't have children, you have to be rich!
Otherwise, who will listen to their own call in this family in the future?
~~
Seeing this, Cao Cao knew that Ding Hui would not leave if he didn't take a gold brick out.
How clever he is.
So, he opened a cloth bag, took out a gold brick from it, stuffed it to Ding Hui, and whispered: "Then steal a piece, my father found out, at most he scolded me, he won't blame you, he treats your daughter like you." ”
He's too good at talking.
~~
Ding Hui was overjoyed, took the gold brick, and hugged it tightly in his arms.
This is the first time she has seen gold bricks in her life, and the first time she has gold bricks.
Excited!
Cao Cao hurriedly tied the cloth bag tightly.
~~
Ding Hui stood on tiptoe and took a sip of Cao Cao.
She smiled sweetly and said, "Come and sleep in my room tonight!" Hehe! Then he turned and departed.
Unexpectedly, she was just about to open the door, but Liu Yan came with Xiao Cao Ang in her arms.
~~
Liu Yan also misses her husband.
Although when Cao Cao borrowed money from her that day, she said that she didn't want to see Cao Cao again, but how could it?
She is in her youth, how can she not want a man?
~~
Liu Yan has been in the Cao family for so long, so she has naturally seen gold bricks.
She saw Ding Hui holding a gold brick in her arms, and her face changed suddenly.
The joy on her face at seeing her husband vanished in an instant.
Gold Bricks!
~~
She thought to herself: Madame is also a human, and my concubine is also a human.
Moreover, I also gave birth to a son.
Cao Mengde, you're good, just after returning home, you gave my wife gold bricks and threw my mother and son aside?
I'm the first one to inherit the lineage of your Cao family!
What is this called?
~~
Cao Cao was an extremely intelligent and flexible man.
He went out to see the weather, and when he came in to see his face.
He hurriedly opened the cloth bag again, took out two gold bricks from it, and gave one to Xiao Cao Ang and one to Liu Yan.
"Hehe, thank you Gongzi Cao. Ziyu, call father, good! Liu Yan suddenly burst out laughing, and taught Xiao Cao Ang to call his father, and teased again.
Cao Cao tightened his pockets and reached out to take Xiao Cao Ang.
Liu Yan took away the gold brick in Xiao Cao Ang's hand.
~~
Ding Hui looked at them dumbfounded.
She was stunned for a moment, looking at her hand, there was only a gold brick.
And what about Liu Yan? Take two gold bricks.
Ding Hui sighed faintly in his heart: Alas, women, it's better to give birth to babies!
Alas, my belly, alas!
~~
Xiao Cao Ang can't afford to hold the gold bricks.
His little hand had just taken the gold brick, and although he was holding one end of the gold brick with both hands, the other end of the gold brick fell into his mother's arms.
Cao Cao hugged little Cao Ang, threw him up, caught him, threw him up, and caught him.
He exclaimed, "My son has grown taller, and the longer he grows, the more handsome he gets!" In the future, I want to practice literature and martial arts, and become a general, understand? Gotta have a dream. You know? If a person doesn't have a dream, what is the difference between it and salted fish? Right? ”
Xiao Cao Ang can't speak yet, but he was so teased by his father that he laughed and was cute.
He reached out again to grab his father's hair, as if he was afraid that Cao Cao would throw him again.
This family of three is so happy, so happy.
Ding Hui saw it, and his heart was not very good.
She snorted and turned away.
~~
Liu Yan woke up in shock.
She was afraid that Ding Hui would bully herself again because of this, so she hurriedly caught up with Ding Hui, stuffed a gold brick into her arms, and whispered: "Sister, this is a gift from Zixuan, please laugh at Zixuan's little care, our Cao family is not short of money, we just tease Cao Mengde, he is under great mental pressure, and it is not easy to give up his life to seek an official." ”
~~
Zi 脩, that is, the word of Xiao Cao Ang.
~~
Ding Hui's heart suddenly bloomed.
She smiled and said, "Hehe, thank you good sister, this is Ziyu's money, and my sister can't accept it." When Ziyu grows up, his sister has to ask him to ask a master to teach him to practice literature and martial arts, which requires a lot of money. Okay, my sister and my son will play with my husband, and my sister will go to bathe and change clothes first. ”
She said goodbye and stuffed the gold brick back to Liu Yan.
Then she went back to her house with a gold brick.
~~
Liu Yan returned to Cao Cao's bedroom and closed the door.
She whispered, "Husband, didn't you borrow money from me a few days ago?" Why do you suddenly have so much money? Where did it come from? You're not going to be a thief too, are you? ”
Cao Cao whispered, "Father's money is temporarily deposited with me. Hearing that he was going to return to his hometown, His Majesty rewarded him with a sum of money, don't keep quiet, your family wealth will not be revealed. Otherwise, they will suffer, and they will be robbed. ”
Liu Yan shook her head and said, "You lie." You asked your father to borrow money a few days ago, and he still refused, how could you put so much money in your bedroom again? Isn't this sending sheep into the tiger's mouth? I don't know who you are? When you were a child, even Yuan Benchu and Yuan Highway brothers were played by you and often gave you money to spend. ”
Cao Cao was amused by her and laughed.
He said solemnly: "Anyway, this money can't be moved, I have an important purpose." Mark my words and you'll know later. Anyway, you and Mrs. Ding are not short of money. I'm missing. ”
Liu Yan pursed her lips and said, "If you take this money out to find a woman, then it won't work, then I'll shout out and let the robbers steal all the money." ”
Cao Cao immediately promised: "No, with you and Mrs. Ding, my family is already messy enough." Let's go, go to your room, ask someone to bring water, I want to bathe and change clothes, and accompany you tonight. ”
Hehe! Liu Yan laughed out loud again and turned away.
Cao Cao hugged Xiao Cao Ang, followed out, took the door with his hand, and locked the door with one hand.
Servants and maids did not dare to come to his bedroom casually.
Unless there is someone like Liu Yan among the maids, who is beautiful and wants to be on the throne, they will take the initiative to find Cao Cao and take the initiative to close the door.
But at present, there is no other Liu Yan in the Cao family.
And Cao Cao has fresh ones outside from time to time, and he is not interested in the maids in the house.
That night, he and Liu Yan were happy.
And Mrs. Ding was in the east wing, sighing and sleepless all night.
~~
The next day, Sima Fang personally came to Cao's mansion and sent Cao Cao to the post of lieutenant in the north of Luoyang.
He was very optimistic about Cao Cao and felt that Cao Cao could achieve great things.
The people of the northern Wei Yamen immediately respected Cao Cao.
This moved Cao Cao very much.
He thanked Sima Fang for his kindness, and said that he would definitely repay his kindness in the future.
