Chapter 500: Talking
Yuan Shao really didn't expect that there would be so many things involved, and asked with some fear: "Then Meng De means that nothing has happened?" ”
Cao Cao didn't say it explicitly, but he gave his answer with a slight forehead, although Yuan Shao was silent, it was equivalent to obeying Cao Cao's persuasion, and he didn't continue the topic: "By the way, Meng De, I have been by the side of the Son of Heaven for a long time, and this time Cui Situ has the greatest hope of entering the Taiwei Mansion, you should persuade your uncle to avoid his edge at this time and join the Honglu Temple, not the Taiwei Mansion, and you should not leave at such a critical moment!" ”
"Taiwei Zhang Wen was dismissed, my father, Cui Situ all want to get involved, although I persuaded my father to seek the position of Honglu Temple, but the effect is very little, in this case, I will be involved in the muddy water in Beijing, is it not wise, just clumsy Jing wants to give birth to a linzi, I will take this opportunity to get out." Cao Cao didn't continue, but Yuan Shao didn't understand that his subtext was to resign himself to fate, but it was okay to clear up some of his involvement with the eunuch party, and he would also introduce him to the General's Mansion. Yuan Shao thought in his heart, but listened to Cao Cao say slowly: "I remember that you used to be very disdainful of Liu Lan, why are you unusually today?" ”
Yuan Shao was a little hesitant, staring at Cao Cao and looking directly at him, but his eyes were unusually clear, Yuan Shao then remembered that the person in front of him was not a friend of officialdom but his friend for many years, and said slowly: "In fact, the general values Liu Lan very much, and the last time the general came to the door in person to persuade him to enter the general's mansion with sincerity, but this Liu Lan categorically refused, so this Liu Lan is likely to have colluded with the eunuch party, and according to the information obtained by the general, this Liu Lan and Zhao Zhong have a lot of origins, but it's a pity." No matter how much they investigated, they couldn't connect the two. For this reason, the general also sent people to Zhao Bao's hometown of Ganling and Liu Lan's hometown of Zhuo County, and even sent people to Lulong. But he only inquired about the well-known news that Liu Lan was Liu Yuan's rebel son. The corners of Yuan Shao's mouth hooked, a little yin or even cold, and Cao Cao understood Yuan Shao's true intentions, although he was used, his expression only became a little dissatisfied, and he said in a deep voice: "So you feel strange in your heart, so you used me to get close to him, and wanted to find out a little clue, but this time I want to let you go home disappointed." ”
Yuan Shao smiled. Laughing: "Maybe I've got the answer?" ”
Cao Cao shook his head: "We are friends, I know what you are thinking in your heart, Liu Lan does not have the ability to hide and cover up, so guess this qiē is Zhao Zhong is making trouble, with his power and ability, it is not difficult to get rid of people who know his relationship with Liu Lan, but have you thought about it, this is not before the emperor, and the three mutual laws will not restrict Liu Lan." Therefore, Zhao Zhong does not need to go to such great lengths, nor does he need to spend so much time. ”
Yuan Shao nodded, and even sighed: "You're right, that's because even you recognize Liu Lan as Zhao Liaoxi's orphan." Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to see him, don't look at me like that, you're my best friend and best friend who knows what's going on in my heart. Don't forget that so am I, and I know what is in your mind. You must think that Liu Lan is the son of Zhao Bao, and he changed his surname to Liu after recognizing Liu Yuanqi as his father-in-law. But this matter is not like this at all, because Liu Lan recognized Liu Yuanqi as his father-in-law after his career, which is well known in Zhuo County, so Liu Lan must have changed his name first, and then was found by Zhao Zhong, because of the relationship between the two fathers, Zhao Zhong did not persuade Liu Lan, so he had to hide the fact that Liu Lan was actually Zhao Lan, only in this way Liu Lan would not bear the reputation of unfilial piety, and only in this way would King Zhao Yan (Zhao Zhong) do his best to help Liu Lan and let him rise step by step, and behind this qiē there is the shadow of Zhao Zhong, Maybe you will say that the general also contributed a lot, but the general at that time didn't know about it, so he kept adding fuel to the fire, just to use Liu Lan for my use, but it is precisely because of this that Liu Lan sat so lightly in the position of captain of Karasuma at this age, and there is one thing that you may not know, that is, the authority of captain Hu Karasuma has always been in the hands of the eunuch party, if Liu Lan is really not Zhao Lan, then why would Zhao Zhong and Zhang Rang willingly pave the way for him? This is unreasonable, because there is no Zhang Rang's nod in this matter, and it is difficult for Zhao Zhong to do it, so what makes Zhang Rang agree? I don't think I need to say this anymore, looking at your appearance, maybe you are still questioning me, hey, Meng De, others don't understand me Yuan Benchu, but don't you understand? Since I dare to tell you, that is, I have some evidence, not without a target, but the water in this is very deep, not we can stir it, and we can't stir it, so I just remind you, I know that you have been dissociating yourself from the eunuch party, but you must not get too close to Liu Lan, now it is only Zhao Zhong who has covered up the truth, but one day the truth will definitely be revealed, and then Liu Lan will become the target of public criticism, even if she has Zhao Zhong's support behind her, there will be people who are jealous, but jealousy is jealous, But Liu Lan's career will end because of unfilial piety on his back, and those who are involved with him at that time are afraid that they will also be stained with fish. ”
Cao Cao was judging, so he didn't speak, he felt that what Yuan Shao said seemed to be like that, but he didn't agree with it in his heart, after all, it was just wishful thinking, Yuan Shao saw that Cao Cao was still calm, as if he didn't take it seriously, and said a little eagerly: "Mengde, don't take it seriously, we are close friends, I have always understood your efforts, don't let yourself regret it for life." ”
Cao Cao's expression finally changed a little, but he was still calm: "What you said is credible?" ”
Yuan Shao was anxious, and he was a little cold-eyed: "Meng De, you have to understand that it is impossible for me to deceive anyone in this world, if even I deceive you, then who else can you trust in this world?" Yuan Shao was really anxious and said: "I'm in a hurry, what are you thinking, don't believe me, or have you been lying to me all along?" Perfunctory me? ”
"Don't get excited at first, it's not that I don't believe you, I'm just a little worried."
Yuan Shao's face improved a little, stroking his shortcomings, with a questioning face, Cao Cao squinted his eyes and said: "Although I have known Liu Lan for a short time, I think I have a general understanding of him in the previous short exchange, so it is still worth making friends with him alone, not to mention what if she is really Zhao Bao's heir?" So what I'm worried about is that I can't deny him because he has something to do with Zhao Zhong, just like the two brothers Zhao Bao and Zhao Zhong, who in the world will deny it? So I think if you really want to find a handle from Liu Lan's head to deal with Zhao Zhong, is it a bit too aggressive? ”
"You, you, how do you know this?" (To be continued......)
