Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 479 My Zhongqing! (4000)

"In order to prevent further conflicts, after seeing King Shanshan, General Mo immediately showed Yinshou and reported himself to the family, and explained in detail his relationship with the woman, hoping to resolve the misunderstanding."

"The king of Shanshan saw that I was able to kill the defending general with only twenty people, so he didn't dare to despise me too much. He also saw the seal of the last general, especially after hearing the name of Duke Ming. He suddenly changed his attitude and treated me as a guest... The final general was puzzled, so he dared not relax his vigilance."

"As a result, at this time, I learned the news of Duke Ming's great victory in Xuzhou from King Shanshan. It turns out that although Shanshan is thousands of miles away, there are already merchants who have been in contact with Minggong. It's all like thunder."

"At this time, due to the weakness of the Han Dynasty, Shanshan Kingdom is weak, and the Protectorate of the Western Regions exists in name only. Foreign countries in the Western Regions and the Xiongnu have long been eyeing it, and people with ulterior motives in the country are waiting for the opportunity. Now they are in a predicament of internal and external troubles, and urgently need to rely on Minggong, who is courageous, resourceful, and able to support the collapse of the building, deters internal and external enemies, and this is a good strategy for 'communication from a distance and attack from a distance'."

"That's why the King of Shanshan expressed such goodwill to the general, and he hopes that the general will act as a middleman and bring this kindness to Duke Ming."

"As for this Prince Chamu... the general thinks that King Shanshan has taken him as a hostage with Duke Ming, and I'm afraid he has other plans."

"On the one hand, you can express your sincerity to Duke Ming and gain Duke Ming's trust and support;"

"On the other hand, the general feels that the king of Shanshan probably wants to leave a way for the royal family. Minggong should know that as early as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Shanshan Kingdom was still called Loulan Kingdom. At that time, Emperor Wu forced King Loulan to send a prince. He went to the Central Plains as a hostage, and later King Loulan died, and the Loulan Kingdom fell into a struggle for succession. With the support of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the prince easily quelled the chaos and inherited the throne of King Loulan easily. From then on, Loulan Kingdom was renamed Shanshan Kingdom."

"Now Duke Ming is invincible in all battles in the Central Plains, and he is the leader among the princes from all walks of life. If a prince is sent to Duke Ming, it will be considered that the Shanshan Kingdom is defeated by other countries in the future, or if there is any trouble in the country, Ming You can also send this well-know prince back to inherit the throne, solve the internal troubles of foreign enemies, and help Shanshan to restore the country again, so as to ensure the stability of Shanshan for a hundred years, and the royal family of Shanshan will not be cut off because of this.”

"This king of Shanshan really has a good plan."

"Thus, although the final general brought back the letter and contribution of King Shanshan and the prince, he did not dare to claim credit for it. After all, the final general knows nothing about political affairs, and he still needs to make the king think about it before making a decision. To make a decision, if this matter is beneficial, it is naturally good, and the general will be happy in the end, but if this matter is harmful but not beneficial, the emperor should not follow the way of King Shanshan, and...don't punish The general, the general just doesn't understand, but he didn't mean it, if it's not possible, the general will send these things back with the prince."

Speaking of this, Wu Liang showed a look of apprehension on his face, mixed with a trace of cunning and rascal, just like the face of a small citizen who is wise and safe.

This story was fabricated by him based on the historical facts of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, and added some of his own creations.

The purpose is to conceal the matter of "black powder" so that Boss Cao will not be aware of it.

And the advantage of making up stories based on historical facts is that they are highly credible. After all, it has happened before. Not only can people be preconceived, but they can hardly find any flaws.

Simultaneously.

Wu Liang also deliberately did not mention Emperor Han Zhao, but instead focused on Emperor Wu of the Han, because Emperor Wu of the Han has been in power for a longer period of time than Emperor Zhao of the Han in history, and has a better prestige even in later generations. Not to mention the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which was very close to the Western Han Dynasty.

So although he didn't say it clearly, he quietly compared Boss Cao to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

And the whole story will also teach Boss Cao to take the correct position unconsciously, and it is impossible not to think about it.

This is the ultimate meaning of flattering!
By the way, Wu Liang was also very wise not to overstep and hand over the choice of accepting or not surrendering to Boss Cao, even though Boss Cao, who has already "checked his seat", actually has only one choice at all.

Making decisions for the leader is a taboo in the workplace, Wu Liang will not easily make such a big mistake...

Thinking of this, Wu Liang suddenly realized another problem.

Emperor Wu of Han... Emperor Wu of Wei.

Boss Cao is Emperor Wu of Wei, although this is the posthumous title given to him by Cao Pi after his death.

But as far as Wu Liang knows, among the successive founding emperors of the Celestial Dynasty, regardless of whether they were posthumously named or self-proclaimed, it seems that only Boss Cao used "Emperor Wu". For example, Liu Bang is Han Gaozu, Li Yuan is Tang Gaozu, Zhao Kuangyin is Song Taizu, and Zhu Yuanzhang It is Ming Taizu.

Only Boss Cao is a bit unique.

Wu Liang knew that in history, Boss Cao had confessed to Cao Pi before his death, and that Boss Cao did not have the intention to become emperor, but the conditions were not mature when he was alive in history... So, Wu Liang was even a little skeptical that this " Could it be that the posthumous title of "Emperor Wei Wu" was given by Boss Cao in his will after Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor, and would his rainbow fart just now have any effect?
Emmm... Thinking about it so wildly, it seems that I have fallen into another philosophical closed loop.

After all, in the history that Wu Liang knew, there was no Wu Liang himself, so the "Emperor Wu Wu" he knew should not have anything to do with him.

So!

Wu Liang suddenly realized a problem that he hadn't thought about when making up this story. If there is no him in the official history, this "Emperor Wei Wu" has nothing to do with him, so he just stabbed Boss Cao hard again without knowing it. heart.

In Boss Cao's heart, he compares himself to "Emperor Wu", and Emperor Wu of Han may be Boss Cao's idol and role model!

After all, Boss Cao was an unruly ranger when he was young, especially when he was an official in the capital, he was tough even when facing a big boss in the capital. He made more than ten five-color sticks and hung them around the yamen "Anyone who violates the prohibition will be killed with a stick." Even the eunuch's family members, the son of the emperor, beat him to death with a five-color stick because they violated the prohibition of walking at night.

It can be said that when Boss Cao was young, he should also be an idealist who enforced orders and prohibited them. He even sent a letter to the imperial court about the fact that the treacherous people were all over the court, but the loyal and good people were not reused. Emperor adopted.

Later, because he offended too many powerful people, he was unable to display his ambitions after all, and was framed many times. In the end, he was dismissed or resigned several times.

It is reasonable for such a person with ideals, ambitions and tough actions to regard Emperor Wu of Han as his idol and role model.

"Well, you Wu Youcai, you dare to make two-handed preparations when you come to my place, what are your intentions!"

After listening to Wu Liang's fabricated story, Boss Cao stopped his hand from fiddling with the "Warring States Repeating Crossbow". When he looked up at him, his eyes widened and he scolded in a deep voice.

"Minggong Mingjian, the general is only telling the truth, and dare not hide his inner thoughts from Minggong."

Wu Liang hastily bowed down in awe and apologized.

He could tell that Boss Cao was not really asking for guilt, but was using this method to hide the uncontrollable ecstasy in his heart. Otherwise, why would the corners of his mouth twitch upwards uncontrollably?

What a tsundere guy, laugh as much as you want, what are you pretending to be?

Haven't I seen you lose your composure?
"For the sake of your honesty, I will write this down for you for the time being."

Boss Cao gave Wu Liang another sideways glance, then looked at Prince Chamu whose purpose he had "debunked", pondered for a moment before saying, "Don't reach out to hit the smiling face, since King Shanshan took the initiative to hand over the letter of surrender, he will also send the prince back to you." Sending him as a hostage can be regarded as showing enough sincerity, even if there is some care in the heart, it is human nature, how can I face him, otherwise it will not appear that we have no measure and structure, and can't accomplish great things?"

"Duke Ming means..."

Wu Liang asked with a smile.

"Knowingly asking!"

Boss Cao straightened his face again, and said seriously, "By the way, you have been here for half a year, and you haven't seen Ni'er for some time, right? Although you and her are not married, I already recognize you as a son-in-law. So don't avoid suspicion too much, go and meet her, she heard that you are coming to Juancheng, she has chased after me a few days ago to ask me."

"..."

Wu Liang was stunned for a moment.

Boss Cao's statement is naturally very satisfied with Wu Liang's harvest this time, otherwise, how could he have arranged for him to meet his daughter so proactively, and even said that he didn't mind Wu Liang's birth in advance? Rice means cooked rice.

Although in terms of rules in this era, it should be arranged for marriage after the girl has completed the ceremony at the age of 15.

But no matter if they are ordinary people or noble families, they don't really care too much about this rule. Marriage with fingertips is also a common thing. It is also very common to marry girls in their early ten years old, and Cao Ni is now approaching his age. 15. If you really want to get married or even have children, there is no big problem.

Of course, Boss Cao didn’t force it. After all, Wu Liang had expressed his opinion before that he hoped to wait for Cao Ni to grow up, and Boss Cao is also a shameless person. Well, when it comes to this step, it can be regarded as pulling off such an old face...

just.

This stumped Wu Liang.

He really didn't think too much about this somewhat sickly Princess Qinghe, not only because he was young now, but even when he was older, he might not have it.

Thinking of the fact that in history Princess Qinghe used to frame Xia Houmao with a false accusation because her husband Xiahoumao took a few more concubines, causing Xiahoumao to almost die, Wu Liang always felt chills in his crotch.

He admitted that he was not a good thing.

In the later generations where monogamy was practiced, Wu Liang would naturally abide by the rules and regulations, but now in the Eastern Han Dynasty where monogamy and multiple concubines were practiced, his heart has already been agitated. If I want to experience a different married life, it is not a waste of time to come to the Eastern Han Dynasty.

And Cao Ni would obviously spoil his interest, and based on this alone, Wu Liang did not want to have too much contact with her.

It's just that it's not easy to save Boss Cao's face, so he has been using the word "drag" before.

Fortunately, Boss Cao didn't say anything to death now. There would be no problem when Wu Liang went to see Cao Ni, as long as he insisted on waiting for her to come of age, could it be that Boss Cao could still force him into the bridal chamber?
"Anything else?"

Seeing that Wu Liang stood still and didn't agree immediately, Boss Cao frowned slightly and asked.

"It's nothing important, but I don't know how Duke Ming plans to arrange Prince Chamu."

Wu Liang said with a smile, "Before leaving, I promised King Shanshan that when Prince Chamu arrives in the Central Plains, I will arrange for him to learn the profound culture and wisdom of our Central Plains. In addition, I will get some use in Shanshan this time. The ancient books written in "Ku Lu Wen" also need Prince Chamu's assistance in translation and interpretation. Therefore, if the envoy has decided to teach him to keep it as a pledge, can you temporarily teach me to bring it back to Chenliu and give it to Ming when it is needed? Send it back."

"It's not a big deal, but Prince Chamu came all the way with the sincerity of Shanshan, I should do my best to be a landlord, don't let Prince Chamu think that our Central Plains treats guests like this."

Boss Cao nodded, looked at Prince Chamu with a smile, nodded slightly at him, and said, "Prince Chamu, you will stay in my house for a few days, and tonight I will hold a family banquet to welcome you. Several descendants are about the same age as you, and you should also take this opportunity to get acquainted, if you can become good friends, it will also be a blessing for our two descendants, what do you think?"

"I would like to listen to Minggong's arrangement."

Prince Chamu stroked his chest and saluted.

"And you."

Boss Cao smiled and nodded, then looked at Wu Liang but said with a straight face, "You must already know that I recognize Lu Bu as my adopted son, right?"

"The end will be heard."

Wu Liang nodded.

"Then I won't tell you more. Your house in Juancheng has been awarded to Lu Bu and others by me. You have also lived in my house these few days. Not only Ni'er is looking forward to you, Zixiu and others Anmin is also concerned about your safety, you get together less often, and you take this opportunity to get together."

Boss Cao said again.

"promise."

Wu Liang cupped his hands and said.

……

Called the servants to make arrangements, after Wu Liang and Prince Chamu walked out of the living room.

"boom!"

Boss Cao slapped the case table with a slap, his whole face instantly filled with an indescribable smile of joy, he hummed a little tune, and twisted his body unconsciously, his arms and legs were rhythmic It's wobbling, much like dancing to old age disco for the afterlife.

This is the real sense of dancing.

"God help me too!"

"Wu Youcai is the roundworm in my heart. Every word and every word is said in my heart. I almost couldn't hold back my laughter just now, but I taught Wu Youcai to watch the joke with that Prince of Shanshan!"

"If you compare me to Emperor Wu, then the talent is my Zhongqing (Wei Qing)!"

"Before, I was worried that Lu Bu would be rewarded heavily at the celebration banquet. I was afraid that Youcai would be left out in the cold, so I made a special trip to Tutoru Yu to test his thoughts... Now it seems that I was too worried. Youcai made such a contribution and should be in the celebration banquet. If I reward him vigorously, I can use this matter to suppress Lu Bu, lest he think that I have no one in my account to take credit for and be proud of!"
