Chapter 202: Sycophants

From Cao Shuo's departure from Xudu with his troops, to his defeat of the Jingzhou army, the burning of Wancheng and then returning to Xudu, it was not even a month.

Cao Shuo's soldiers and horses were only more than thirty miles away from Xudu, and they could be reached in a few hours.

In the city of Xudu, the back house of the Cao family.

Cao Cao and Ding Yao walked side by side.

"Zirong is coming back." Cao Cao said: "He broke the Jingzhou army this time and set fire to Wancheng again, Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao are going to stop for a few days." ”

"Husband." Ding Yao said: "I have a reluctant request. ”

"Say!"

"Can you let Zirong go out a few times?" Ding Yao said: "There is no Zi Rong, fortunately Zi Rong is by his side, in case he ...... too."

"Zihuan and they are still young, my son, who else can be used besides Zirong?" Cao Cao said: "If you don't let him out, what do the generals think? Women's families, don't meddle too much in government affairs. ”

"I'm not involved in government affairs." Ding Yao said: "I just feel sorry for my son......"

Hugging Ding Yao's shoulder, Cao Cao said, "I know that Zi Yao died in battle, and you have always hated me." Fortunately, thanks to Zirong's mediation, you and I have not been able to separate. ”

Ding Yao didn't say anything.

After Cao Ang died in battle, she really didn't think about returning to Cao's house.

If it weren't for Cao Shuo's enlightenment, she and Cao Cao would probably no longer have the status of husband and wife in this life.

"My husband has high ambitions, and I'm not an unreasonable person." Ding Yao said: "Zirong can go on the expedition, but he ...... this year"

"You think I'm willing?" Cao Cao said: "The army was newly defeated in Wancheng not long ago, and the soldiers were exhausted. The traitor Yuan Shu is the emperor, and recently he has been wooing Lu Bu, and Liu Biao of Jingzhou has always coveted the Cao family. If I don't get rid of them, how can I live in peace? Who else can I let go besides Zirong? ”

"Does the husband still have to ......" Ding Yao was stunned.

"Back in Xudu, he won't be able to rest for a few days and will go to Xuzhou again." Cao Cao said: "Let anyone go, no one can convince Lu Bu without him!" ”

"Lu Bu's three family slaves are capricious." Ding Yao said: "He first betrayed Ding Jianyang and voted for Dong Zhuo, and then killed Dong Zhuo to join Wang Yun. Zirong went to see such a person......"

"It is precisely because of Lu Bu's capriciousness that I want to melt my son." Cao Cao said: "This shows that I am sincere!" ”

"If the husband has sincerity, what should Zirong do?" Ding Yao said: "This kid is also a tendon, last time I asked why he was allowed to go on the expedition again, but he said that as a son of the Cao family, he didn't worry about his father, who else could treat the Cao family sincerely......"

Ding Yao said, her eyes were already red.

Cao Cao hugged her tighter: "When Zirong comes back from Xuzhou, I'll let him go out with you, how about it?" ”

"I don't want to go anywhere," Ding Yao said leisurely......

"I know what you want." Cao Cao said: "But Zirong has grown up, and he can't always be protected by you in your arms." If he's a wolf, let him hunt his prey; If he's an eagle, you should let him fly. ”

"But he's not a wolf, he's not an eagle, he's my son!" Ding Yao said, sobbing again.

Cao Cao sighed and said to her: "Women's heart, take care of your back house!" ”

Cao Cao turned to leave.

Ding Yao was still standing there.

Although she got the news of Cao Shuo's triumph, she couldn't be happy.

Cao Shuo can kill people today, and others will be able to kill him tomorrow......

Having already lost one son, how could she want to watch another son disappear from her life?

Cao Shuo returned to Xudu, and Cao Cao certainly would not greet him personally.

But when he entered the city, he found that Xun Yu was waiting with a group of generals and staff.

When everyone saw Cao Shuo, they all bowed and said, "Congratulations on the triumphant return of the son." ”

"Thank you, princess!" Cao Shuo dismounted and returned the salute.

"Gong Cao has been waiting for his son for a long time." Xun Yu stepped forward and said.

"It's not a big deal for me to come back." Cao Shuo said to Xun Yu: "I want Xun Gong to come to greet him in person, I'm really scared!" ”

"Gongzi fought in Wancheng, and the generals have long regarded Gongzi as a god." Xun Yu smiled and said: "How dare I slack off even a person that the generals admire?" ”

Xiahoudun and others, who followed Xun Yu to greet him, echoed one after another.

After a few more humble words with everyone, Cao Shuo instructed Cai Ji: "You settle Miss Jia in my residence." ”

Cai Ji responded.

Cao Shuo's soldiers and horses also followed Sima Yi and others back to the barracks.

Only Weitu and a few guards followed him.

"Childe just said Miss Jia?" Xun Yu asked, "I don't know which Miss Jia is?" ”

"I went to Wancheng, but I couldn't go home empty-handed." Cao Shuo said: "There is nothing to bring there, so I took Jia Xu's daughter captive." ”

Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the staff on the side.

Xun You said: "Gongzi kidnapped Jia Xu's daughter, I don't know how to settle it? ”

"I've been taken into the room." Cao Shuo said: "She may have a ...... this meeting"

Everyone was at a loss.

Guo Jia smiled slightly, and said to Cao Shuo: "Gongzi is very wise, I admire it!" ”

"Gongzi accepted Jia Xu's daughter, did he also use a scheme?" A staff member who followed behind Guo Jia asked in amazement.

Guo Jia said: "Didn't you see it? Zhang Xiu relied on Jia Xu, and Gongzi took his daughter in, and now Jia Xu and Cao Gong are also in-laws. Zhang Xiu will use Jia Xu in the future, won't he cast a mouse taboo? ”

Everyone was stunned.

Cao Shuo is full of black lines.

Guo Jia is really a ghost talent, and he is too good at explaining!

There has long been an agreement between him and Jia Xu, and Jia Pei was accepted only because she was beautiful and smart, and she couldn't control the second half for a while.

But as soon as Guo Jia said it, the simple needs of men were described as unfathomable......

"Still Guo Gong understands me." Guo Jia deliberately raised him, how could Cao Shuo's character not climb up the pole: "I kidnapped Jia Xu's daughter out of this consideration." Although I entered Wancheng, I moved all the merchants to Xudu and set a fire, but Zhang Xiu still has other cities after all, and the threat to the Cao family is far from being lifted. Let there be a gap between him and Jia Xu, and Zhang Xiu will no longer be afraid! ”

"Childe is really a god!" One of the staff members gave a thumbs up and said, "Such a seamless plan can be imagined!" It's really convincing to me. ”

"You're welcome! You're welcome! Cao Shuo grinned and said, "I only came up with this idea on a spur of the moment, and I didn't have a plan in advance!" ”

"You can do this with a single move, but who else in the world can do this?" Another staff member patted the ass and said: "The Cao family has a son, why worry about the world?" ”

"To calm the world, we still need all the princes and me to work together to assist my father!" Cao Shuo arched his hand to the sky and said: "We are loyal to the king, and the spirits of the first emperors of the Han Dynasty in the sky will also bless us!" ”
