My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 132

Not to mention Cao Cao and Liu Bei, Xie Jin and Xie Yu sitting across from each other were also surprised.

Let's not talk about whether the position of Jiuqing that Cao Cao promised to Wei Cheng can come true.

It is Wei Hao, if he can really assist the young emperor to put down the Baibo army, relying on his prestige in Shilin, and Wei Hao once served in the too ordinary position, and then returned to the official position, a Sangong will not be able to escape.

The Wei family is the family of foreign relatives. Since the ancestor Wei Qing, the family has gradually declined. In the past 300 years, the Wei family has had a few big figures, but the power cannot last for too long, and there will always be a generational break.

In Wei Hao's generation, he has only become one of the Nine Ministers, and the eldest son is even worse. He only served as a county magistrate in a small place in Guanzhong. Unfortunately, that's probably what it means.

Now that a Sangong is in front of him, Wei Cheng refuses without hesitation.

Xie Yu really wanted to persuade Wei Cheng, but she held back and planned to go to Cai Yan later and ask her sister to persuade him.

Xie Jin, on the other hand, looked at Wei Cheng thoughtfully, with an inexplicable look in his eyes, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

Cao Cao came back to his senses, and twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment. He really didn't expect that someone would refuse power.

"Young Master, think twice." Liu Bei couldn't help reminding.

What he didn't expect was that Wei Cheng didn't even look at him, picked up the wine glass, asked the servant girl to add more wine, and asked with a smile: "Are you still used to living in the mansion? Is there anyone making things difficult for you?"

When the servant girl heard the words, she shook her head hastily, bowed her knees respectfully, and replied: "Nurse treats us equally, and never makes things difficult."

Wei Cheng smiled slightly, and asked her a few more questions, all of which were very routine.

These maidservants are refugees in trouble, who took the initiative to sell them to the Wei family as slaves. After Wei Cheng learned about this, he paid them high wages like the Holy Mother. They can take three days off every month and enjoy the perfect nine-nine-six blessing. report.

Liu Bei who was left on the sidelines opened his mouth, but finally closed his mouth with a helpless wry smile.

There was once a sincere trust in front of me, but I didn't cherish it. If God can give me another chance...

Liu Bei's heart hurts.

In the end, Cao Cao and Liu Bei left with nothing.

After walking out of Wei's mansion, Cao Cao said for no reason: "This son has a lot of ambition."

Liu Bei was stunned, not knowing what he meant, and he was too embarrassed to ask, otherwise he would look stupid and stupid.

Cao Cao turned his head and glanced at the plaque of the wealthy family of the Wei family, his brows were frowned, a stern look flashed in his eyes, and he left angrily.

What he didn't know was that Yuan Shu had also said the same thing.

And they obviously all thought that Wei Cheng hid his strength and bide his time in hibernation for many years, and now he is self-respecting as soon as he was born, which is simply ulterior motives.

After Cao Cao and Liu Bei left, Wei Cheng invited Xie Jin to drink tea in the backyard.

The small red clay stove boils mountain spring water brought by servants from Luliang Mountain dozens of miles away.

Xie Yu was obediently waiting on the sidelines. She imitated Cai Yan's movements and recalled the steps carefully, for fear that Wei Cheng would see a joke by accident...Compared with her who was wielding knives and guns, the current Xie Yucai seemed like a lady of every family.

"Why did Zhongdao reject Cao Mengde? Although I disagreed with him a lot, this person has always kept his word. If the Wei family really made contributions in suppressing the rebellion, it must be a certainty that Duke Wei will reinstate the three princes. It's a pity." Xie Jin said with emotion.

Wei Cheng looked at Xie Yu's clumsy movements, heard the words, and said with a smile: "Uncle Shi doesn't understand me, my nephew is used to wandering around and wild cranes, and likes to be with herbs on weekdays. On the father's side, he's old, so it's better to stay at home and enjoy the blessings, so as not to be squeezed out and seriously hurt the mood, hehe."

Xie Jin held back a sentence in his heart, and was about to blurt it out, but he glanced at Xie Yu beside him, but finally held back.

He wanted to ask Wei Cheng, since he didn't want to fight, why did he raise so many soldiers? He had seen the training of the city guards outside the city, and the intensity was no less than that of the strong troops at the border, or even worse.

However, remembering that my precious niece has also participated in the training, it is better not to ask this question, lest Xie Yu will be implicated when Wei Cheng's "dongchuang incident" occurs, and it will be impossible to argue.

Now Xie Jin has only one idea, hurry up and don't get too involved with Wei Cheng and the whole Wei family.

But he didn't know that his precious niece already had her heart on someone Wei.

That night.

Cao Cao, who was sighing in the washroom, suddenly received an invitation.

Knowing that the person who invited him to meet turned out to be Wei Min, Cao Cao left the house calmly and did not call Liu Bei who was in the next room.

In the southeast corner of the county seat, in a fence.

The hook bar has been around for a long time. I don’t know when it started. Probably as long as there are men and women, there will be demand.

There is also a reason why Wei Min invited Cao Cao to meet here.

The two met in a guest house, and they were accompanied by two plump young women. They were not top-notch in appearance, but they all had breastfeeding children, and some people liked it.

the next day.

Cao Cao returned to Washe early in the morning, took his men and Liu Bei, and went straight to Xia County after leaving the city.

At this time, in Xia County, Wei Gong was in charge, and Guan Yu was in charge.

Two days later.

Wei Cheng got the news that Wei Gong and Guan Yu defected to Cao Cao with [-] soldiers and horses.

Wei Cheng was stunned for a moment when he got the news. To be honest, the news shocked him a lot.

It is reasonable for Guan Yu to be fooled by Liu Bei. How could Wei Gong defect to Cao Cao without knowing his own voice?
Although I am not very familiar with Wei Gong, Wei Cheng feels betrayed for no reason.

Just when Wei Cheng was depressed, Wei Yan came to him.

The uncle and nephew were sitting opposite each other, Wei Cheng was making tea with a gloomy face, and the soup was boiling, which was very similar to his mood at this time.

Wei Yan said bluntly: "The advantages of this move outweigh the disadvantages. Don't be sullen. I'm doing this for your own good."

After Wei Yan learned that it was Wei Yan who gave Cao Cao the letter of introduction, his heart felt like a stone was pressed.

Facing Wei Yan's explanation, Wei Cheng said with a childish temper: "Second Uncle still doesn't believe me."

Wei Yan looked at him amusedly, Er Er said seriously: "Why, you don't even listen to what Second Uncle said?"

"Don't dare." Wei Cheng pouted.

Wei Yan said earnestly: "There are two considerations for this move. First, although Gong'er is the adopted son of the eldest brother, there is still a layer of blood relationship. It can keep my Wei family's incense alive...Secondly, if you want to give the world an attitude, it is an imperial edict after all, how can you ignore it so easily?"

Wei Cheng is not stupid. After listening to his explanation, he gradually calmed down the resentment in his heart.

Wei Yan didn't know his true "confidence", so Wei Yan made a decision to invest in both parties based on the principle of maximizing benefits.

On the one hand, he used the strength of the whole family to support himself, and on the other hand, he asked Wei Gong to serve the Han Dynasty and participate in the suppression of the rebellion under the name of Wei.

There is a third benefit to this move, which is to buy enough time for Wei Cheng to develop secretly.

At least before the real troubled times came, Wei Cheng couldn't be that early bird, otherwise he would be easily attacked by the crowd.

From this point of view, Wei Min deserves to be the real person in charge of the Wei family, and his decision can be said to kill three birds with one stone.

It's a pity that he didn't know that his nephew was an open traveler, otherwise he wouldn't have to bother to make such a fuss.
