At this moment, countless red-armored cavalry rushed towards the Prefecture Governor's Mansion, and when the first person saw Cao Yun falling from the sky, he slapped his horse and rose up. The horse fell with a bang. This person is none other than Lehman. Lei Bo is Cao Hao's confidant, and was arranged by Cao Hao to stay in Qingyang City, in order to protect Cao Yun in time when Liu Shan attacked Cao Yun. It's a pity that LehmanBrown came a little late.

Cao Yun was shot three arrows in the back and fell from the air, seeing that countless spears were already being held on the ground. Xindao himself couldn't escape, so he immediately turned his back down and lifted Zhang Zixi straight up with both hands.

Suddenly, a black-clothed Cao-faced man flew from a distance, instantly surpassing Lebo. The man was still in the air, and two punches came out, and the fist wind blew the ground soldiers away. Cao Yun was able to avoid the spear, and when his back was about to hit the ground, this person flew to grab Cao Yun, and pulled Cao Yun up with a lift. Quickly pointed at the acupoint on Cao Yun's back, and pulled out the three arrows in Cao Yun's back at once. Holding Cao Yun, he flew up.

At this time, Lei Bo, who jumped into the air to the gate of the mansion, yelled: "Who rescued Childe?"

But the black-clothed Cao-faced man ignored it and flew away with Cao Yun in his arms. The man in black hugged Cao Yun, Cao Yun hugged Zhang Zixi, and stepped on the roofs of each house in the rain.

Just as Lei Bo was about to chase after the man in black, an adjutant general shouted violently: "General Lei, don't chase, since that person has already rescued Gongzi, he will not hurt Gongzi, we still follow General Cao's instructions to directly take down the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion to stabilize the situation." ”

Hearing this, Lei Bo fell, glanced at the black-clothed man who flew away, and then turned around and led the army towards the state governor's mansion. I saw the sound of fighting in the governor's mansion, and a small part of the army controlled by Liu Shan in the city also hurried over, and Cao Xian and Cao Hao, who were in Jiangling, had already led their troops to Qingyang City.

The man in black hurriedly carried Cao Yun on the roof of the street, and instantly disappeared into the alley, and soon arrived outside a remote house.

The man in black walked into the house with Cao Yun in his arms, the room was a little damp, and the man in black slowly put Cao Yun on a clean **. Cao Yun was still awake, so he took the opportunity to put Zhang Zixi aside, and then lay on the **. His back was covered in blood.

"Uncle Big Head, Zixi should be in a coma due to excessive blood, and I hope Uncle Big Head can get some medicine to replenish blood. Cao Yun turned his head and said weakly.

"You kid, you're still thinking about women at this time. The man in black said and took off the Cao face scarf, it was Zhang Datou.

"Heh, I have always treated her as a brother, and now she is the only one left in Qingyang City who dares to befriend me, and I naturally protect her. ”

"Don't talk anymore, lie down in peace, I'll go get medicine for you two." ”

At this time, Zhang Datou had already changed his clothes, put on his usual long costume, and turned around and walked out of the house.

After Zhang Datou left, Cao Yun turned his head to look at Zhang Zixi, who was pale, but he was wondering why this big head was so powerful, and his strength was probably already an innate martial artist, how could such a character be a puppet seller?

It didn't take long for Zhang Datou to buy some medicine and come back, and after boiling the medicine, he gave it to Cao Yun, and also bandaged Cao Yun's wound simply. After a while of pranayama, Cao Yun regained some physical strength, and he was able to move his body.

Zhang Datou handed the good food to Zhang Zixi after boiling it to Cao Yun, Cao Yun got up, then helped Zhang Zixi up, and slowly poured the medicine into Zhang Zixi's mouth.

After pouring the medicine, Cao Yun put down Zhang Zixi's body flat, walked down, and slowly sat next to Zhang Datou. At this time, Zhang Datou was immersed in carving puppets.

"Why don't you lie down on the **?" Zhang Datou finished speaking, blowing the dust on the puppet with his mouth.

"If you don't get up, do you have to sleep on it all the time?" Cao Yun said with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Zhang Datou raised his head and looked at Cao Yun and said with a smile: "Don't pretend to be a gentleman in front of me, give you a chance to sleep with a beautiful woman in your arms, you have to get up." ”

Cao Yun shrugged helplessly when he heard this.

"Uncle Big Head, thanks to you today, otherwise my little life would be gone, and I haven't seen enough of this great world!" Cao Yun said with palpitations, and when he came down from the air, his eyes were really black, and his thoughts were blank, as if he was dead.

"Fortunately, when someone came to buy my puppet, he talked about the marriage of the state pastor, and the marriage object was the girl Zixi, and I knew that it was not good as soon as I heard it. You used to come to me with Zixi and He Shidi, and I was afraid that you would be reckless and do something for a while, so I rushed to take a look. Fortunately, I arrived in time, if it was one step late, your little life would really be ~hehe~"

Zhang Datou laughed as he spoke, and Cao Yun also laughed.

"Uncle Big Head, how many years have you been in Qingyang City?" Cao Yun asked casually, his eyes looking at the puppets randomly placed in the room, but his eyes were paying attention to Zhang Datou.

Zhang Datou paused for a moment when he heard the carving knife in his hand, and then followed the route of the carving knife, and Cao Yun noticed this.

"It's been many years, who still remembers, when I arrived in Qingyang City, the stone lion at the end of the alley hadn't been erected yet!" Zhang Datou buried his head in his head, and the carving knife in his hand was still turning.

"Where is Uncle Datou's hometown, I'll go and see it when I have a chance in the future!" Cao Yun looked at Zhang Datou and said, his eyes looked very real, as if he really wanted to see Zhang Datou's hometown.

"My hometown, a very poor place, I wonder if the road is still there?" Zhang Datou said a little lonely, and the carving knife in his hand stopped.

Cao Yun thought that he had asked Zhang Datou about his sadness, although he wanted to ask Zhang Datou what martial arts he knew and how far he had cultivated in the martial arts realm, but he could only give up, and these doubts could only be answered in the future.

When night came, Cao Yun's back arrow wound was still very painful, and Zhang Datou forcibly let Cao Yun lie down on the ** to rest. Naturally, he was lying next to Zhang Zixi. Cao Yun is not hypocritical, anyway, he is also lying down, his body is injured, and it is impossible to make any movements, Zhang Zixi can wake up tomorrow and explain.

Zhang Datou's house has only three rooms, a kitchen, a puppet, and the one where Cao Yun and Zhang Zixi are lying now. It's only this one that has **, and who has to shop Zhang Datou tonight.

The next day, the rain in Qingyang City finally stopped, and the sky after the rain appeared exceptionally clear, and there was a fragrance of freedom in the air.

The breeze blew gently, and people felt very comfortable. However, the people in Qingyang City are indeed talking about all kinds of things now, whether it is the old man or children, or scholars and knights, they are all talking about Cao Yun's invasion of the Prefecture Governor's Mansion yesterday to kill Liu Shan, and the Cao family's takeover of Qingzhou by thunderous means.

"Yesterday, Cao Yun killed himself in the state pastor's mansion, killed the lord of a state, and rescued his favorite woman, what a style and what a spirit this is"

"For a woman, you can kill the lord of the state pastor, and it is the blood of the emperor family, isn't he Cao Yun rebellious?"

"Hmph, it's not just him Cao Yun who is rebellious, his father Cao Hao and his grandfather Cao Xian led the army from Jiangling yesterday to take control of Qingyang City, this is the real rebellion. Liu Shan is the imperial court's imperial minister, and it is also the blood of the emperor's family, Cao Yun has already rebelled against Liu Shan to kill him, and his Cao family also took the opportunity to control Qingyang City, this is a rebellion against the imperial court."

"Now that Jiangling and Qingyang are under the control of the Cao family, Qingzhou will be surnamed Cao in the future, how can I allow a rebellious courtier to rule in Qingzhou, a beautiful place since ancient times?"

There was a lot of discussion in the entire Qingyang City, one of the ten people applauded Cao Yun's behavior yesterday, and the other nine said that Cao Yun was rebellious and the Cao family was rebellious. Even many scholars who had been suppressed by Liu Shan before did not applaud Cao Yun's killing of Liu Shan, saying that Cao Yun's trip was a great rebellion, and what the Cao family did was even more rebellious.

Cao Yun and the Cao family have since been labeled as rebellious ministers and thieves, and after the news spread throughout the towns and cities of Qingzhou, all Confucian students were in an uproar, and they did not expect the Cao family to be like this. People automatically ignored Cao Yun's assassination, only to know that Cao Yun broke into the state pastor's mansion for a woman and killed the state pastor, and the Cao family took the opportunity to control Qingzhou.

The Confucian scholars began to write all kinds of articles, criticizing Cao Yun and the Cao family on various occasions, and the common people heard these Confucian remarks and also felt that Cao Yun and the Cao family were rebellious thieves!

Caofu living room.

"Father, you said that you would wait for Liu Shan to do it, and wait for a reason. Now it's okay, all the people in the world have seen is that Yun'er killed Liu Shan, I led my troops to control Qingyang City, and now our family is a chaotic minister and thief. It's better than when Liu Yu died, father, you ended up as a state pastor. At most, it was said that one grabbed the position, and now, Liu Shan has done it to Yun'er, and we have a reason, but the people of the world only look at the results, and only see that we control Qingzhou. Yun'er was also seriously injured, and now she doesn't know where she went. Cao Hao said to Cao Xian, who was sitting in the main seat of the living room, with some excitement.

"It's because I underestimated the people of the world, and I didn't expect the Kuai Cai family to stir up the situation, and the person who assassinated Yun'er for the first time should be from one of these two families. Yun'er's appointment by Liu Shan as the Taishou of Qingyang City was also a ploy of Kuai Yue, and I suspect that those Confucian discussions were also instigated by people from these two families. Cao Xian said with a sigh.

"Father, do you mean to say that the current Confucian discussions are all instigated by the Kuai and Cai families?" Cao Hao asked.

"Now it is naturally impossible for the Kuai and Cai families to operate, then Cai Mao has been killed by Yun'er, with Kuai Yue's character, he will not act rashly, he can see clearly, Qingzhou will become my Cao family sooner or later. Cao Xian said lightly.

"Father, what should we do, many civil officials have resigned due to illness. Cao Hao said worriedly.

"What can I do now, I will personally visit Pang Gong after a while. ”

"But father, Yun'er seems to be with Pang Gong~" Cao Hao said cautiously, he knew that what Cao Yun said in the Huang Mansion has now been widely circulated, and Cao Xian was also very angry when he heard it, not to mention how angry the Pang Guild was.

"When Yun'er comes back, come with me to visit Degong. Cao Xian said a little weakly, "Now I don't know where the Lu Dao document has arrived, I just hope that He Jin will not make things difficult for me, and smoothly let the monarch approve the following documents." ”

"General He Jin shouldn't be difficult, now the princes from all walks of life have long been out of the king's management, although we are so discordant with the king's law, but today is already in chaos, we sent so much gold, I want to come He Jin will not be difficult. Cao Hao said widely.

After Cao Xian took control of Qingzhou, he sent a civil official with 10,000 square gold to Luoyang under the escort of a hundred sergeants, so that the imperial court approved the appointment of Cao Xian as the pastor of Qingzhou. Nowadays, almost all the power of the imperial court is controlled by the general He Jin, as long as He Jin approves it, it is equivalent to the approval of King Ming, so Cao Xian asked the civil official to bring 10,000 square gold to He Jin.

The next morning, Zhang Datou went to the puppet shop with his burden, and Cao Yun and Zhang Zixi were still lying on the **.

The early morning sun shone in, Zhang Zixi's eyelashes moved, and then his body flipped slightly, and his little hand was placed on Cao Yun, and Zhang Zixi opened his eyes suddenly. Feeling the breath beside him, his heart sank, and he suddenly withdrew his hand and turned his head, and when he saw that it was Cao Yun, he breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Cao Yun's face, Zhang Zixi was slightly happy in his heart.

In yesterday's battle, Cao Yun was exhausted, first there was a fierce battle in the forest, and his body was scorched by the heat flow from the Heavenly Spirit Pill. Then he entered the state pastor's mansion, killed Liu Shan, and was hit by three arrows after the worst. Where is the strength in the whole body, I am really tired, and I am still asleep.

Zhang Zixi looked at the sleeping Cao Yun, and felt that there was a lot of warmth in his heart.

"It would be nice if I could wake up every day and see this face. Zhang Zixi thought about it for a long time, raised his left hand and stretched out to Cao Yun, wanting to touch Cao Yun's face, but Zhang Zixi's hand stopped when he was about to touch Cao Yun's face.

"Brother Cao, I am satisfied when I look at you. Zhang Zixi said with a smile.

Zhang Zixi then remembered that he was forced to marry Liu Shan by his relatives yesterday, and his heart was full of bitterness.

"Although Brother Cao brought me out, Brother Cao was afraid that he would be infamous because of this, eh, I shouldn't have let my family tell him at that time. Zhang Zixi regretted a little that he had let the family inform Cao Yun.

It was nearly noon, Cao Yun hadn't woken up yet, and Zhang Zixi was a little worried. shouted a few times, but Cao Yun still didn't move. After the end, he had to endure his weakness and shake Cao Yun.

Cao Yun was shaken by this, his back ached, and he woke up suddenly, and his hand was put on Zhang Zixi's chest without paying attention. After the pain, Cao Yun felt a soft feeling in his hand, Cao Yun was puzzled, and pinched it a few times.

"Hmm. Zhang Zixi muttered softly.

Cao Yun came to his senses and hurriedly retracted his hand, embarrassed for a while, and both of them were silent. After a short while, Zhang Zixi asked weakly: "You 、、、 you woke up, do you still have pain in your back?"

Cao Yun was completely sleepy now, and returned a little embarrassed: "No、、、 it doesn't hurt, you don't have anything wrong with your body, right?"

"It's nothing, but I still feel a little powerless. Zhang Zixi returned with a light smile.

"Brother Zhang, how can you marry a man, shouldn't you marry a woman?" Cao Yun asked with a hearty smile, wanting to resolve the embarrassment in his heart.

"Hehe," Zhang Zixi smiled in a low voice when he heard this, "Brother Cao, aren't I also forced." ”

"Didn't you say that your father respected your opinion, why did he suddenly force you to marry Liu Shan?" Cao Yun asked suspiciously.

"At first, my father didn't agree, but then Liu Shan came to ask for a kiss in person, but my father was forced to agree due to family pressure, and the people in the family wanted to gain a foothold in Qingzhou. Zhang Zixi said weakly.

"Oh, isn't your family going back to Xuzhou?"

"Who dares to go back to Xuzhou, that state Mu Cao De is now about to make Xuzhou a hell on earth, everyone is forced to cultivate martial arts, countless families have been suppressed, all property has been confiscated, and they have been forced to be officials, which family still dares to stay in Xuzhou now. Zhang Zixi said angrily, as if Cao De was a demon.

"Cao De suppressed your family?" Cao Yun asked with some surprise.

"Yes, that Cao De has suppressed various wealthy families since he became the governor of Shangzhou after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and issued a ten-sentence order specifically to deal with the family. Not to mention the family, many rich families have suffered. It is said that Cao De has a demon sword, which specializes in killing people and sucking souls. Zhang Zixi said with some fear.

"Demon Slaying Sword?"

"Well, my father said that Cao De really has a demon sword, which specializes in killing people and sucking people's souls. ”

Cao Yun can be regarded as being suppressed, this Cao De won't also cultivate martial arts, right? What kind of world is this world?

Just as Cao Yun and Zhang Zixi were talking, Zhang Datou limped back with his burden.

"Uncle Big Head. Zhang Zixi shouted at Zhang Datou, who walked in slowly.

"Zixi is awake, is Cao Yun awake?" Zhang Datou said as he put down his burden.

Cao Yun didn't dare to move his back, and turned his head with difficulty, "Uncle Big Head, how are the puppets selling today?"

"It's okay, how is your back injury, I'm giving you some medicine, if you want to get better, go back to Caofu by yourself, I can't afford this medicine." ”

"Uncle Big Head, you keep a good record of the medicine bill, and you will pay you back twice when you get to my house. ”

"Oh, then I'll have to remember. ”

The effect of the medicine prepared by Zhang Datou was excellent, and Cao Yun's back no longer hurt in the afternoon, and even if he moved, the three wounds only felt slight pain. Zhang Zixi's face has recovered a lot, and he has a little luster, and he can act.

Walking out of the alley where Zhang Datou's house was located, Zhang Datou found a carriage and drove Cao Yun and Zhang Zixi towards Cao's mansion.

Sitting in the carriage, looking at Zhang Zixi in a red wedding robe, Cao Yun always wanted to laugh for some reason.

Looking at Cao Yun who wanted to laugh but couldn't help laughing, Zhang Zixi asked helplessly: "What's wrong with me, why do you always want to laugh?"

"Ha Luha, I just always feel a little funny, a woman married and dressed in a red robe and sat in a carriage with me. Cao Yun finally couldn't help laughing.

Zhang Zixi rolled his eyes when he heard this, "I'm so tragic, you can still laugh because of this." ”

It didn't take long for the carriage to arrive at Cao's mansion, and as soon as the carriage was obtained, three maids came out of Cao's mansion to support Cao Yun, and Cao Yun asked three more maids to support Zhang Zixi and slowly walked into the mansion.
