Cao Huang, Yingchuan Cao Valve, Yingchuan has always been a literary gathering, many famous writers are from Yingchuan, Yingchuan Gate Valve has always been proud of poetry and books, only Xi Wen failed to turn to martial arts in the family, but the Cao family is an exception.

The Cao family is a military family, the Cao family is not the kind of millennium family, when Taizu raised the army, the Cao family was just a product of the door valve, but also fought under the previous dynasty, surrendered Taizu in the battle of Taolin, and then followed Taizu to conquer the world, all the way down the meritorious service, after the world was determined, the Cao family did not abandon the military and follow the literature like other founding achievements, still stay in the army, the descendants of the Cao family practice martial arts every day, after becoming an adult, they must enter the army, or the border army or the forbidden army or the mountain camp, the Great Jin Dynasty has been established for 800 years, every war has the figure of the children of the Cao family, every war, the children of the Cao family are bloodstained with the territory。

More than 10 years ago, in the battle of counterattack Xianbei, the children of the Cao family died no less than ten people in the battlefield, in this war, the emergence of Qiuyun Fang Hui Duan Chang and other four famous generals and governors, the emergence of King Qi such a world-famous virtuous king, the Cao family is unknown, but in fact, the core of the court knows that in this war, Cao Huang is the core of the army, he stands behind Emperor Taiding in obscurity, so that all the light falls on Emperor Taiding, and he formulates the entire strategy against Xianbei, the whole war is carried out in his strategic planning, he is the real core of the Great Jin military。

But the strange thing is that Cao Huang was only awarded the post of general of the Che Cavalry, in the Great Jin, the highest military position is the general, the Great Jin abolished the position of the general a hundred years ago, and the most undisputed one in a hundred years, who can ascend to the highest position in the military, is Cao Huang!

After the general, it is the hussar general, that is, Qiu Yun's current official rank, after the hussar general is the chariot general, Cao Huang only won the position of the general of the chariot cavalry from a young age, at that time, there were many people in the army who were dissatisfied, thinking that the emperor treated the heroes poorly, but Cao Huang was very calm.

With Xianbei bowing down to the courtiers, the Great Jin Dynasty entered the stage of peaceful development, Cao Huang presided over the adjustment of the army, he successfully reduced the number of the army, balanced the relationship between the army generals, but in the imperial court, Cao Huang's power gradually decreased, six years ago, Cao Huang Zhishi, Emperor Taiding did not let him return to his hometown, but asked him to continue to stay in the imperial capital, and the inner city and the outside of the city were rewarded with manors.

After Cao Huang became a general, he rarely appeared in public, no emperor announced, he did not enter the city, most of the houses in the city were his grandsons, Cao Yong, the commander of the forbidden army, was in use, the Cao family was a family of military generals, and the generals and private soldiers of the family were all brave men in the army, and as long as the old man of the Cao family gave an order, countless warriors in the army were willing to go to the soup for him.

This person was actually involved in the assassination case in the inner city, can you not shock Gonggong Bai!

"This, how did the Cao family get involved with the Wang family?"

It took a long time for Gonggong Bai to calm down, and then a trace of doubt sprung up, and he looked at Wheat and Father-in-law Lin in wonder, Father-in-law Lin still turned his back to him and did not speak, but Milky shook his head with a wry smile, the internal guards monitored the kings and the family of gate lords, and the generals in the army were the top priority. In the internal guard files, there are countless internal security personnel who have been discovered by the families of the kings and generals in the army, and have been quietly coldly treated, and have been quietly sent to carry out mortal tasks, and the list of personnel lost by the internal guards can be piled up in this room.

Therefore, the internal guards that can penetrate into the core of the families of the kings and lords and the generals in the army are all treasures, and they will never be activated for such a thing.

Bai Gonggong sighed, his expression was uncertain, Lin Gonggong's expression was calm, of course he knew that the Cao family and the Wang family had no contact over the years, but a few years ago, Cao Huang joined forces with the old ancestor of the Wang family, forcing Emperor Taiding to kill the king of Shaoyang County.

In the eyes of most courtiers, this move was Emperor Taiding's favor to Cao Huang, but Gonggong Lin knew that this was not the case.

Although Emperor Taiding is not as good as some of the British lords in the early stage of the Great Jin Dynasty, but in the past two hundred years, he can definitely be regarded as the master of the last generation of Zhongxing, Cao Huang and the ancestors of the Wang family joined forces to commit the taboo of Emperor Taiding, and it is already considered a grace to be able to save the lives of the two of them.

But these words can't be said, such a thing, only the people who are very close to Emperor Taiding know, simply put, only the ancestor knows, and he is the confidant of the ancestor, this knows a little bit.

"Do we have anyone in the Cao family?" Bai Gonggong asked cautiously, and when he hesitated, he saw that Lin Gonggong did not react, so he replied in a low voice: "Yes, but I didn't enter the core, so I didn't know much about it." ”

"What has Cao Huang been doing lately?" asked Gonggong Lin.

"Back to my ancestors, I still have the same old age, and I farm every day in the Dixin Garden outside the city. Maizi immediately replied: "It is rare to see outsiders, almost no generals in the army, there are more than 100 private soldiers of the Cao family in the Cleansing Garden, and in the city, Cao Yong is also the same in the forbidden army, and there are several guests in the family, and there is no abnormality." ”

Bai Gonggong's heart was shocked, and then he was a little excited, he hurriedly suppressed this excitement, looked at Lin Gonggong, Lin Gonggong was silent for a while, and sighed softly: "Copy the old ancestor, let the old ancestor decide." ”

"Yes, Ancestor. "Wheat has long expected this result, calmly responded, Lin Gonggong has controlled the internal guard for more than ten years, and has not exceeded his authority, all actions must be reported to the ancestors first, and the ancestors will only act if they agree.

Father-in-law Bai frowned slightly, and asked tentatively, "Father-in-law Lin, is it appropriate to report it like this?"

Gonggong Lin turned to look at him, smiled and said: "Gonggong Bai, after Taizu set up the internal guard, there are clear regulations on the internal guard, the internal guard shall not act without authorization, the effect of the internal guard is to supervise and prevent, when the first Wenzong, it is an edict, the internal guard shall not have action, later, His Majesty Wuzong felt that it was not possible to be close to the forbidden army, so he formed the Tiger Benwei, after Wuzong, Emperor Renzong issued an edict to return the power of the Tiger Benwei to the inner court, until Emperor Xuanzong succeeded to the throne, the power of the Tiger Benwei was transferred to the internal guard, why is this? It is worried that the internal guard will violate the ban with his power, and the power of the internal guard is very large, and he can monitor the kings, ministers of the court, and generals in the army, this power is very great, no matter who controls this power, he must be very careful, so His Majesty of the past dynasties has strict requirements for the internal guard, and if he takes action if he does not get approval, even if it is beneficial, the emperor will not allow it. ”

Father-in-law Bai understood now, and hurriedly got up: "Thank you father-in-law for your advice." ”

Gonggong Lin looked at him deeply, and nodded only after half a sound, he made an exception to say so much, so that Gonggong Bai understood his kindness, and at the same time reminded him that the power of the internal guard is great, but the responsibility is also great.

Maizi quickly drafted a report, handed it to Gonggong Lin for signature, and then took the report and reported to Gonggong Lin: "Ancestor, there is nothing else, the little one will go." ”

Gonggong Lin nodded, and Maizi left, and finally ignored Gonggong Bai at all.

The emperor is in a good mood today, he made an exception and was not in the imperial study, but was accompanied by Concubine De to enjoy the flowers in the Yixin Garden, the emperor is not a good woman, there are not many concubines around, there are only three concubines in addition to the queen, Concubine Shu, Concubine De, Concubine Li;

Every emperor had to have a beauty pageant after he ascended the throne, but the pageant would only be conducted three years after the first emperor Zigong entered the mausoleum to fill the harem. But looking at the emperor's appearance, he didn't mean to be a beauty pageant.

Some time ago, the emperor's heirs were scarce, except for Concubine Shu who gave birth to a daughter some time ago, others, whether the queen or the concubine Zhaoyi beauty, there was nothing to come out, after Concubine Shu gave birth to a daughter, the Queen Mother was very anxious, and said that the emperor several times, let him pay attention, there is no heir, it is a very serious matter for the emperor.

The emperor sat in the small pavilion, the four concubines were selected by Emperor Taiding, and the talents and family backgrounds were very good, Concubine De's surname was Lin, from the Lin family in Jingzhou, she liked calligraphy and painting, and she was also elegant and elegant like a chrysanthemum, and her behavior was elegant and polite. The emperor actually liked Concubine De very much, and every time he was with her, he made him feel relaxed.

Father-in-law Mu, as before, guarded outside the garden, and in the garden were Gonggong Huang and Concubine De, the eunuchs and palace maids of the Qing Palace.

Seeing Wheat come in, Grandpa Mu knew that something was wrong, and after reading Wheat Zi's report, Grandpa Mu frowned slightly, and Grandpa Mu respectfully stood by the side, waiting for his instructions.

"You go back first, this matter is not in a hurry, let Liu Han handle it himself, if there is any information, provide it to him, well, as for the general of the chariot, you can't move. ”

Wheat Zi bowed down to receive the order, and he understood very well the meaning of Cao Huang's inability to move.

Father-in-law Mu looked at the garden, and the little eunuch next to him quietly passed by, and whispered, "Ancestor, take a rest." ”

Father-in-law Mu didn't speak, the little eunuch waved his hand, the two eunuchs brought a chair over, Father-in-law Mu sat down, and soon a teapot was delivered, this is a delicate purple sand teapot, carved with a plum blossom on it, Father-in-law Mu held it in his hand, and drank it with the spout.

The rocking chair shook slightly, and a woman's soft laughter came from the garden, and Grandpa Mu showed a hint, but looking at the report in his arms, he couldn't help but think about it in his heart.

What happened in the inner city was reported to the palace as soon as possible, and Grandpa Mu didn't take it seriously, but just asked Grandpa Lin to strengthen the defense of the palace, in the past few decades, more dangerous things than this have been experienced, but Grandpa Mu attaches more importance to the meaning behind this matter.

But what the internal guard found out made him a little surprised, it doesn't matter what the accent of those people is, even if it's a Jiangnan accent, it's nothing, as long as he believes it, any accent is useless, but this matter involves Xiao Zhao Wangye and Cao Huang, which is a little strange.

Mu Gonggong didn't believe that Cao Huang would make a move on Liu Han at all, in his opinion, Cao Huang was a smarter person than the ancestor of the Wang family, Liu Han had nothing to do with him, why did Cao Huang make a move?

Father-in-law Mu quickly made this judgment.

--------------------------------

Outside the imperial capital, a green manor's backyard opened a field, an old man with white hair picked up a load of water in the field and put it down, the old man was dressed very simply, linen clothes, pedaling straw sandals, the old man picked up the water scoop from the bucket, carefully watered the green vegetable seedlings, after watering half, the old man stood straight, wiped the sweat with the linen towel around his neck, looked up at the vegetable seedlings that were rising well, and nodded with satisfaction.

A middle-aged man in a blue and white cotton robe came in slowly, stood at the edge of the field, and looked at the old man quietly, after the old man wiped his sweat, he began to water again, this time all the time, and then put the water scoop into the bucket, and the bucket was still half poked at this time.

The old man lifted the bucket, did not go back, walked under the flower stand, the flower stand was covered with green rattans, the rattan was full of small yellow flowers, the spring breeze blew, the yellow flowers swayed gently in the wind.

The old man sat down on the stone bench, put the burlap towel in the bucket, wrung it out, scrubbed it, and then squinted at the sky before sighing softly: "What's going on again?" )
