Chapter 143: Jia Xu's response
"Childe, Your Majesty is young and vigorous and extremely impulsive, if he learns that a hundred officials have fallen to Childe, he will be furious, but this time he can hold back his anger and come to visit Childe in person, I'm afraid that the person who came is not good!"
Do your best for people.
Although Jia Xu said that he first voted for Dong Zhuo and then worshiped Li Dao and Guo Yan, and came to Zhang Ji after stirring up trouble in Luoyang, he did not feel any guilt at all.
At this time, he offered advice to Cao Ang, and the words he said were also what he really worried about, as if he didn't care that his old master was killed by Cao Ang.
Cao Ang knew that this Jia Xu was quite a poisonous man's ghost, and after hearing his reminder at this time, his face immediately became solemn.
"My son also feels that something is wrong, the previous rebellion, it must have been the Son of Heaven who said that he was instigated, now that he comes to this son's mansion, will he take the initiative to touch the porcelain, so that the people in the world will look at my Cao family differently?"
When such words were spoken, Jia Xu's face also showed a little weirdness, although it was the first time he had heard such words as touching porcelain, but this was a vivid and vivid word, and he could naturally understand it literally.
"Don't worry about the son, there are a lot of natural palace maids and eunuchs around the Son of Heaven when he travels, as long as the son abides by the etiquette, he will not let the Son of Heaven find a reason."
After hearing Jia Xu say this, Cao Ang also nodded, and then raised doubts about Liu Xie's intentions.
"It's not good to take it with you in the palace this day, come to this son, do you have any guesses?"
Hearing Cao Ang ask the reason, Jia Xu pondered for a moment and then expressed his opinion.
"I'm afraid that the Son of Heaven came this time to set an example for the officials."
The emperor's mental technique, in this Jia Xu's heart, is not so difficult to guess.
"Above the court, many officials know that Prime Minister Cao Cheng's power is greater than that of the Son of Heaven, and many people only listen to the Prime Minister's orders and do not follow the orders of the Son of Heaven."
"Now many officials come to visit Gongzi, and when the Son of Heaven comes to visit Gongzi Cao at this time, he can also make a statement to those officials, and even Gongzi Cao can accept it, not to mention those courtiers who fall to Gongzi Cao."
After hearing such words, Cao Ang's face immediately became solemn, and it was obvious that he had heard the meaning of Jia Xu's words.
This Son of Heaven actually planned to show his benevolence by visiting himself, so as to prepare for the future rebellion against his father's courtiers!
"In that case, according to Mr.'s opinion, how should this son respond?"
Liu Xie has already left the palace, and it is impossible to let him go back, so how to deal with this son of heaven has become a problem at the moment.
Whether it is to greet each other with a sick body, or to greet each other in the house, or to take the initiative to greet each other when going out of the house, whether it is a hasty greeting arranged in advance, or a large greeting that has been prepared a long time ago, these are all asked.
At the same time, this time to welcome the Son of Heaven, it will become a reference for the court officials to look at themselves and the Cao family, and it is impossible for him to be a little slack.
Seeing that Cao Ang seemed to be a little worried, Jia Xu was not in a hurry at this time, and expressed his opinion.
"Childe doesn't have to be afraid, as long as you abide by the way of the courtiers, and you will be safe when you come, then you will definitely not let people leave a tongue, even if someone ferments this matter in private, it will definitely not have an impact."
After saying such words, Jia Xu also specially comforted Cao Ang.
"Childe just need to remember that you are the eldest son of the prime minister, a person with military achievements, and a courtier of the son of heaven, so you are not afraid of the tongue of others!"
After hearing such a reminder, Cao Ang's eyes also showed a look of determination, seeing that time was passing minute by minute, he also seemed to have a goal, bowed his hand and left in a hurry.
"The maids and guards in the house are all listening, and they will go out with my son to greet the Son of Heaven!"
After an explanation, Cao Ang hurriedly walked out of the mansion again, and greeted him in advance with great fanfare on the streets outside the north of the city.
Although Cao Ang had already learned the news in advance, when he actually greeted him outside, the time was still quite tight.
When the frame of the Son of Heaven arrived, there were also negligence in many places, such as the color of the ribbon to welcome the Son of Heaven was not uniform, and for example, Cao Ang came back all the way, coupled with a fierce battle, the hair on his body was still a little messy.
All this can be seen that Cao Ang's preparation is not very sufficient, but at this time Cao Ang did not care, and still respectfully came out to greet him.
After all, poor hospitality and neglect are two completely different things.
"Minister Cao Zixuan, welcome Your Majesty out of the palace."
On the streets of the night, in this dim light, the ground leading to Cao Ang's mansion in the north of the city was now spread out in a long yellow thickness.
Cao Ang walked cautiously over it, and after coming to the Son of Heaven, he bowed three times and knocked nine times, although the preparation was in a hurry, but the number of rituals still did not fall.
In the end, when Cao Ang came forward, within the car of the Son of Heaven, Liu Xie also hurried down and personally helped Cao Ang up.
"Cao Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, my son returned injured after hearing Cao Aiqing's great exploits on the front line, and he wanted to come to the house to visit, but where did he think that it would make Cao Aiqing even more tired!"
Liu Xie's words were full of thoughtfulness, as if he loved his ministers like sons.
And after Cao Ang heard such words, his face was also full of emotion.
"Your Majesty's favor to my Cao family, my Cao family may not be able to repay it in this life, I heard that Your Majesty came to visit, and the minister's injury was also taken care of by His Majesty's Holy Body, and there is no discomfort anymore!"
Such words are quite exaggerated, but at this time, when talking to the Son of Heaven, no one dared to show any different colors, and Liu Xie was also quite useful after listening to it.
"Haha, Cao Aiqing is the pillar of my Han family, why do you need to say such words, I heard that Aiqing is sick, and I specially prepared a lot of nourishing medicinal materials."
Seeing that Liu Xie not only came by himself, but also brought a lot of things, Cao Ang's face was even more moved, and then he hurriedly and carefully invited this Liu Xie into his mansion.
Along the way, almost all the subordinates in Cao Ang's Mansion came out to greet them, most of these people had never seen the Son of Heaven, and many people were quite out of shape at this time.
But even so, for those soldiers who followed the Son of Heaven and the people on both sides of the street, this Cao Gongzi's courtesy towards the Son of Heaven was still extremely thorough.
For a while, many people also nodded, and they didn't believe the words of the people outside who said that the Cao family's father and son were as wolf as Dong Zhuo.
At the same time that Cao Ang led Liu Xie into the mansion, what he didn't realize was that next to Liu Xie, there was a pair of eyes staring straight at him, it was Liu Qin, the princess of Wannian who was disguised as a maid.
