Chapter 20: Slander of the World
After closing his eyes and enduring the most painful pain, Cao Yun opened his eyes. Wang Yue had already walked in front of Cao Yun.
"Breaking through to the acquired triple, how do you feel?" Wang Yue asked with a smile.
Cao Yun smiled and shook his head, grinning and said, "I don't feel anything, I just want to say, if Mr. doesn't slowly correct me for anything, it's all over at once, it's really not an ordinary pain." ”
Cao Yun was about to hold his hands on the ground as he spoke, and as soon as he put his hands on the ground, he howled.
"Ha Lu Ha" Wang Yue laughed when he saw this, this Cao Yun has been enduring the pain, and he was stunned that there was no sound at all, and now this inadvertent howl made him feel quite accomplished, as if it was very interesting to hurt Cao Yun.
"You can take a break, you can use some medicine to soak in warm water, take a bath, and warm up your newly aligned bones. This way your bones will be harder. Wang Yue said, so he found a pen and paper and wrote a few flavors of medicine and dosage for Cao Yun.
"Although the medicine on this is a bit expensive, you are a child of a family, you should have this money. Wang Yue said with a smile.
Cao Yun got up and took the list, said with a smile: "Heh, sir, don't underestimate my Cao family." Now the relationship between him and Wang Yue is more and more cordial, and there is no longer the restraint at the beginning.
Wang Yue told Cao Yun to pay attention to some things, Cao Yun turned to leave, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Xiao Yao waiting outside with an umbrella in his right hand.
"Young master, don't get caught in the rain anymore. Xiao Yao said and handed the umbrella he was holding in his hand to Cao Yun, and then opened the umbrella he was holding in his left hand.
"It's just right, you asked Steward Chen to go out and buy these medicines for me. Cao Yun said and handed the medicine list to Xiao Yao.
"Good young master. Xiao Yao took the medicine list and walked away.
Cao Yun returned to his room with an umbrella and moved his body slightly, still in some pain, but he felt that his limbs were stronger than before.
Sitting on the chair, Cao Yun pondered whether to take the Heavenly Spirit Pill now, and after thinking for a while, he decided to take it tomorrow. Although the time is urgent, if you take the Heavenly Spirit Pill immediately and break through, I am afraid that it will affect the achievements of martial arts in the future, and the gains outweigh the losses!
It didn't take long for Xiao Yao to come back, and after stomping his feet outside the house, he walked in.
"Young Master, Steward Chen has bought medicine for you, it shouldn't take long to come back. ”
"Well, you go and boil the hot water, and after Steward Chen buys the medicine, you use those drugs to soak me in the bath water, and I will soak my body. Cao Yun said as he walked towards the study.
"I'll go boil water for the young master right away. ”
Cao Yun walked into the study, picked up a martial arts book in front of the bookshelf and looked at it, and he didn't know how long he had been reading, and Steward Chen hurriedly walked in.
"Young Master. Steward Chen walked up to Cao Yun and bowed down and shouted.
Cao Yun raised his head when he heard this.
"Young master, I have already handed over the medicine to Xiao Yao. After Steward Chen finished speaking, he looked at Cao Yun, and seemed to have something to say.
Steward Chen gritted his teeth and continued: "Young Master, on the way to buy medicine, I heard a lot of people talking about Young Master and our Cao family. ”
Cao Yun frowned when he heard this, "What are you talking about?"
"Young Master 、、、, those people say that the young master does not respect the etiquette law, is arrogant, and disrespectful to Confucius, and 、、、 still say..." Steward Chen still bowed down, but his eyes turned upwards and glanced at Cao Yun.
"What else are you talking about?" Cao Yun asked, staring at Steward Chen.
"I also said that my Cao family forced the state pastor to let the young master be the Taishou of Qingyang, saying that my Cao family wanted to control the entire Qingzhou. Steward Chen whispered.
"Heh, the news is spreading very quickly, and I know that Liu Shan ordered me to do the things of Qingyang Taishou, is the big seal you threw out still there?"
"No、、、 it's gone. ”
"Uncle Chen, go down first!" Cao Yun said with a wave of his hand.
Then Steward Chen walked out of Cao Yun's house, as soon as he walked out of the room, Steward Chen took a few big breaths, just now in front of Cao Yun really had a feeling of being oppressed and speechless.
Cao Yun was still sitting on the chair, his eyes slowly rolling, thinking about Liu Shanbu's game.
"Probably all the Confucian scholars are talking about me now, my name should be louder in Qingzhou at this moment. The corners of Cao Yun's mouth turned up, with a smile, and he couldn't see any anger.
"How will grandpa and father react?" Cao Yun slowly got up and walked to the window. The rain was still falling, and it didn't abate in the slightest, and even a strong wind blew a few big trees not far from the window, and it made a loud noise.
It didn't take long for Xiao Yao to walk in.
"Young Master, Pang Shiyuan Pang Gongzi is here. ”
Cao Yun stood up when he heard this, and as soon as he stood up, he saw Pang Shiyuan walking into the study, his clothes a little soaked.
"Brother Pang, why are you here for such a heavy rain?" Cao Yun asked in surprise.
"Today's heavy rain is a friendly day to go out!" Pang Shiyuan said with a hearty smile.
"Brother Pang is really interested, Xiao Yao brought a clean handkerchief. Cao Yun immediately beckoned Pang Shiyuan to sit down.
"I think Brother Cao is concentrating on martial arts, I'm afraid I don't know how to talk about the Confucian students in Qingzhou here!" Pang Shiyuan said after sitting down.
Cao Yun sat on Pang Shiyuan's right hand side, and pondered for a moment when he heard the words, "Just before, I heard my housekeeper talk about it, which is nothing more than saying that I am arrogant!"
Pang Shiyuan saw that Cao Yun seemed to be very indifferent, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Cao, people's words are terrifying! Now seven out of ten Confucian scholars are talking about Brother Cao, and they are all criticizing Brother Cao. If this continues, Brother Cao's reputation will be bad in the world, and I am afraid it will be difficult to make a difference in Confucianism in the future. ”
Cao Yun smiled when he heard this, and wanted to say that I didn't want to do anything in Confucianism and Taoism, but if I said that, I was afraid that Pang Shiyuan would despise himself.
"Brother Pang, I don't know if you have heard those Confucian scholars talk about me being the Qingyang Taishou?"
"I'm afraid that it was Brother Cao who became the Taishou of Qingyang that made those Confucian students indignant, so that everyone exaggerated and wanted to ruin Brother Cao's reputation by taking advantage of the fact that Brother Cao only knelt half a knee in front of the statue of Confucius last time. Pang Shiyuan said like Cao Yun.
"Dissatisfied with Brother Pang, when this Qingyang is too guarded, I am afraid that it is Liu Shan's situation, my grandfather and my father will definitely not force Liu Shan to let me be this Qingyang Taishou. Anyone who has a little wisdom naturally understands that my Cao family will not be so idiotic, and will do such a stupid thing to come out and provoke the people of Qingzhou to curse. But those Confucian scholars thought that they were righteous, and they were dissatisfied with me in their hearts, and he Liu Shan used it a little to attract a voice of scolding. Cao Yun said in a slightly raised voice.
"I also understand that Lord Cao Xian and General Cao Hao will not do such a thing, and now I know a little about the situation in Qingzhou, with my understanding of Liu Shan, I am afraid that he will not allow the Cao family to continue in Qingzhou. Pang Shiyuan whispered, observing Cao Yun's eye expression as he spoke.
"Hmph, Liu Shan wants to be a masterpiece of the ancients, where can I tolerate my Cao family to show off on his territory. Cao Yun snorted coldly and looked ahead and said, paying attention to Pang Shiyuan's eye expression from the corner of his eye as he spoke.
"Liu Shan has few ambitions and some talents, but his temperament is too small and his conceit is too much, and he is afraid that he will not achieve much in the future. When Pang Shiyuan spoke, Xiao Yao walked in with a handkerchief and handed it to Pang Shiyuan, Pang Shiyuan wiped it and handed it back to Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao retreated.
"Now that my grandfather and father are running Gangneung City, if he Liu Shan doesn't start with my family as soon as possible, it will be difficult to think about it for a long time. ”
"Brother Cao, why do you feel that I am passively waiting for Liu Shan to attack your family?" Pang Shiyuan asked, and quickly glanced at Cao Yun, as if he wanted to catch Cao Yun's first reaction.
Cao Yun thought for a moment when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, "You also know that my grandfather is a Confucian, and he also has some friendship with Liu Yu." As soon as Liu Yu went, it was impossible for my grandfather to do anything to Liu Shan. , If he Liu Shan An'an is the same as Liu Yu, he will naturally be able to sit firmly in this state pastor position. However, Liu Shanzhi is in the world, of course, he can't tolerate my family. My grandfather only needs an excuse, and this excuse has to be created by Liu Shan, and this excuse is likely to be made because of me. ”
Cao Yun smiled and looked at Pang Shiyuan, Pang Shiyuan also looked at Cao Yun In this pair of eyes, the two seemed to have reached a tacit understanding.
"Then Brother Cao should be more careful!" Pang Shiyuan said in a heavy voice.
When Cao Yun heard this, he smiled, stood up and said, "Be careful, what means does he Liu Shan have to use as soon as possible." Since today's Confucian scholars have regarded me as a wicked and arrogant person, how about I be a wicked person for a while?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of thunder rang out, boom, boom, three times in a row, and the wind outside the window was also whistling in, and the window was also creaking.
Pang Shiyuan looked straight at Cao Yun, and inexplicably felt a sense of pride in his heart.
Cao Yun and Pang Shiyuan then poured two glasses of wine, and then laughed and talked about the past and the present, and talked about the world's major events, so they were not in high spirits.
By the time Pang Shiyuan left, the rain had already lightened. Xiao Yao had already soaked the bath water with medicine, and Cao Yun immediately walked into the bath, soaked himself in the potion, and warmed his whole body.
