Cao Thief

Chapter 389 I Have Jia Er Ke Jackie Chan (12)

Mrs. Shuo is Huang Yueying.

The daytime in winter came very late, it was nearly [-] o'clock, but the sky was almost dark.

The sky is followed by fish-belly light, but the earth is still sinking.Cao Peng almost trotted all the way to the back house, and before he entered the courtyard, he saw a large group of people blocking the gate of the courtyard, all of them showing nervous expressions.

Cao Ji is also in the Kuayuan.

In the past two days, as the delivery date was approaching, he, the father-in-law, came out of Zhijinwu Yamen every day and went back to the farm.

Zhang and Cao Nan help in the delivery room.

Bu Luan and Guo Huan came in and out, appearing extremely busy.

When Cao Peng walked into the Kuayuan, no one paid any attention to him.He saw Xia Houzhen standing under the corridor with a tense expression, so he hurried up and gently hugged Xia Houzhen's thin shoulders.Cao Wan was in Xia Houzhen's arms, staring at a pair of big black eyes, watching the people coming and going in and out of the delivery room with a curious look on her face.

However, when Cao Peng put his arms around Xia Houzhen's shoulders, he could still feel the trembling of her delicate body.

In fact, Xia Hou is really in a complicated mood!
She knew that the reason why she was able to marry Cao Peng was not so much because of their good relationship, but more of a political marriage.Xia Houyuan hopes that Cao Peng will give him more support in the future; Mrs. Huan hopes that through Xia Houzhen, the relationship with Cao Peng will be closer... In the past, the Huan family had always treated Xia Houzhen coldly and did not show good looks.But since Xiahouzhen married Cao Peng, Huan's attitude towards Xiahouzhen has also improved significantly.

In the sixth year of Jian'an, the Battle of Cangting ended, and Cao Cao appointed Xia Houshang as Prince Literature.

This prince is literature, in charge of schooling classics, and serving articles.It sounds like he has no real power, but it belongs to a close minister.

At this time, the general of the five senses is precisely Cao Cao's son, Cao Pi.

In later generations, the prince's literature was called the five senses general literature, which originated from Cao Pi's appointment as the five senses general.Cao Cao's actions are a means of balance, through Xia Houshang assisting Cao Pi, to maintain a balance...

In any case, Xia Houshang was officially a core member of the Cao Clan.

Xia Hou really knew that Xia Houshang's ability to become a prince literature also benefited from her marriage with Cao Peng.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that this is a political marriage.But Xia Houzhen really likes Cao Peng, and has always been worried that Cao Peng would be against her.After all, when Cao Peng married her, Xia Houyuan's push and oppression played a big role.In Xia Houzhen's heart, there was always a trace of guilt towards Huang Yueying.

Fortunately, Huang Yueying is not that kind of particularly strong woman, and the two get along well with each other.

After Xia Hou gave birth to a daughter, he felt a sense of crisis.

Especially when Huang Yueying was about to give birth, this sense of crisis became more and more serious day by day.

She was afraid that she would never get Cao Peng's care again.A mother is more expensive than a child, but she has only given birth to a daughter.Even if Cao Peng loves his daughter Cao Wan very much, Xia Houzhen feels fear and even despair.

Cao Peng patted her shoulder lightly, but said nothing.

He could more or less understand Xia Houzhen's thoughts.

This is a woman who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, extremely strong on the inside, and at the same time very fragile.

"Xiao Zhen, it's cold, go back and rest, don't let Wan'er get sick."

Xia Houzhen seemed to gain some courage, shook his head and said: "Yueying gave birth suddenly. Fortunately, Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Wen lived at home recently, otherwise it would be too late. I am waiting here. Although I can't help you, you can also beg Yueying Ying is okay."

Before the words fell, Huang Yueying's hissed and cracked shouts came from the room.

Cao Peng froze and wanted to help, but knew that he could not enter the delivery room.

"Yueying, don't be afraid, I'm here!"

He was a little panicked, so he could only shout loudly through the window under the corridor.

But maybe it was his cry that made the screams in the room much weaker.A smile appeared on Xia Houzhen's face. When she gave birth to Wan'er, Cao Peng was restless outside the door, not too different from now.

"Ah Fu, Yueying will be fine."

"certainly……"

There was a golden light hanging from the edge of the sky, and when the sun jumped out, there was a cry of a baby in the delivery room.

"Born, born!"

Buluan ran out of the house, her face was flushed, and she shouted loudly: "It's the young master, it's the young master!"

Crossing the gate of the courtyard, Cao Ji breathed a sigh of relief immediately.

Wang Meng laughed and said: "Jun Shi, congratulations!"

Yes, it's for congratulations.

From now on, the Cao family has a descendant...

Cao Peng rubbed his nose and heaved a sigh of relief.At this time, Mrs. Zhang came out of the delivery room with a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, with a happy smile on her face.Cao Peng hurriedly stepped forward to have a look, but after two steps, he turned around suddenly, took Cao Wan from Xia Houzhen's arms, held Xia Houzhen with one hand, and stepped forward with great interest.

Xiahou was really shocked, and a smile appeared on his pale face.

At least, in Ah Fu's heart, he didn't underestimate me...

"Hey, look, this is your younger brother, don't bully him in the future, understand?"

Cao Peng took the baby boy from Zhang's arms, holding Cao Wan in one hand and the baby boy in the other, with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

Cao Wan reached out her hand out of curiosity, and pinched the baby boy's nose, which immediately caused a burst of loud baby crying.Cao Peng was so happy that he laughed straight, hugged the two children, and rushed into the delivery room.Xia Houzhen hesitated for a moment, stepped forward to support Mrs. Zhang, and followed Cao Peng into the delivery room.Cao Ji and others also wanted to go there, but were stopped by Zhang.

"What are you all doing in there?

The woman's family has just given birth to a child and is weak...all staying outside. "

Cao Ji had an embarrassed smile on his face.

The room is as warm as spring, and the two stable women are tidying up.

Huang Yueying was lying on the couch with a pale face. Seeing Cao Peng coming in, her eyes became two beautiful crescent moons, but she couldn't hide her fatigue.

Cao Peng sat down beside her and gently placed the baby boy beside Huang Yueying.

Strange to say, the crying baby boy stopped crying when he leaned against his mother.

Cao Peng didn't speak, just held Huang Yueying's little hand.

Xia Houzhen sat on the other side and said softly, "Sister, congratulations!"

She knew very well in her heart that from the moment the baby boy was born, Huang Yueying had already secured her position as a doctor.Xia Houzhen is not a woman who likes to fight. As long as Cao Peng still likes her and loves her, it doesn't matter who is the big woman.

Huang Yueying smiled, and gently held Xia Houzhen's hand. Although she didn't say anything, she had already expressed her thoughts.

"Ma'am, what should the young master's name be?"

Guo Huan asked cheerfully.

However, this 'name' is not a big name, but a nickname.

The name needs to be available at the full moon, just like Cao Peng's nickname is Ah Fu, which was fixed at birth, and it also represents the blessings of parents to their children.Mrs. Zhang called Cao Peng 'A Fu' in the hope that he would have a safe life and a deep blessing.

The nickname is mostly given by the mother, not the responsibility of the father.

It has been seven years since Cao Peng was reborn in this era, and he more or less knows some rules.

So, he didn't open his mouth, just looked at Huang Yueying with a smile, without saying a word...

Huang Yueying asked softly: "When was he born?"

"Just after eating."

Eat time, that is, Chen time.

Huang Yueying said: "The time of eating is the time when dragons are making rain. If it is according to the zodiac, it happens to be a dragon...how about calling him 'Little Dragon'?"

After all, she looked at Cao Peng.

Cao Peng pondered for a moment, then said softly: "In the past, my uncle and I cooked wine with green plums, and once said that the dragon changes.

Xiao Zhen still remember? "

Xia Houzhen smiled, nodded and said: "Of course I remember... the lord said: Dragons can be big or small, they can rise and hide; big ones make clouds and fog, small ones hide their shapes; Then it lurks in the waves... The change of a dragon is like a man's ambition to cross the world; the dragon is a thing, comparable to a hero in the world... Xiao Longer, this name is resounding. In the future, he will definitely be like a dragon, cross the world, and become the king of the world. Great hero! Sister, little sister is here, congratulations first."

The smile on Huang Yueying's face was even wider, and she looked at the baby boy lovingly.

But Cao Peng said in his heart: I don't want my son to be a hero, I only hope that he will be safe in this life...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++
Huang Yueying gave birth to a baby boy, and the Cao family farm was full of joy.

There is no way, Cao Peng's family is very kind to the farmers and never oppresses them.Cao Ji and the Zhang family were born in poverty, so they were very friendly to the farmers; and Cao Peng, who did not have the airs of a celebrity, took great care of the farmers.

Therefore, when Xiao Long'er was born, the Cao family rejoiced.

At noon, Xun Yu got the news and sent someone to congratulate him.

Immediately afterwards, many ministers from the DPRK and China sent people, including the new Dahonglu Kong Rong and Taichang Zhangji, also known as Zhang Zhongjing.The fate of these two people seems to have deviated from the historical track.In the original history, Kong Rong served Cao Cao along with him, but he always belonged to the Qingliu school and did not integrate with Cao Wei, and was later killed by Cao Cao.

As for Zhang Ji, he was only an official in Changsha in his life, and he never served as an official again.

But now, after Zhang Ji moved his family from Nieyang County to Luoyang, Cao Cao soon gained his attention.

It is only said in history that he has excellent medical skills, but he does not know this opportunity. He can be the prefect of Changsha, and his political ability is not inferior.

Therefore, it was soon established as Taichang, and the official reached Jiuqing.

But Kong Rong's situation is even more weird, because he kept silent when Cao Peng made a big fuss about the Fuguo General's Mansion, so that he formed a friendship with Cao Peng.In the following years of dating, people are still so noble, but a little more calm.

As for when you can calm down?
I'm afraid no one will know...

When Kong Rong was in Jian'an for four years, he got a son when he was old, Lin'er, named Kong Jia; in Jian'an for six years, he got another son, Kong Lin, who was only two years old.Perhaps it was for this reason that Kong Rong became much calmer than before...

Throughout noon, there were constant guests outside Cao's house.

Cao Ji simply asked for leave and greeted and entertained the guests with Cao Peng.

It was not until the afternoon when Cao Cao led his army arrived fifteen miles away from Xudu that the Cao family stopped busy.After all, Cao Cao returned to the capital, and the officials of the DPRK and China must go to greet him.Cao Cao's conquest of Hebei this time was not a success.No one knows what kind of situation will happen, so I still have to go to meet it and find out the wind by the way.

Cao Peng is finally free.

Huang Yueying was also tired, so she slept with Xiao Longer.

Mrs. Zhang, Cao Nan, Xia Houzhen and the others also stayed up all night, and after being busy for so long at noon, they were already exhausted.

Fortunately, Mrs. Hong is here, so there is no need to worry too much.

Cao Peng held Cao Wan in his arms, and sat in the flower hall with Cao Ji and others, chatting without saying a word.

"By the way, Mr. Cao called you yesterday, what happened?"

After Cao Ji was free, he finally had the time to ask.

In the flower hall, Wang Meng sat on top of Cao Ji.Cao Peng is in the first place, followed by Kan Ze, Pang Tong and Shi Tao.

Xia Houlan, Hao Zhao and Hande sat below Wang Meng.

The separation of civil and military is clear at a glance.

Wang Meng laughed and said: "Then what else can happen? It must be the lord who decided to use Ah Fu, otherwise it would be impossible to find him in such a hurry... By the way, Ah Fu, the lord is going to take any position from you this time?"

Kan Ze and the others looked at Cao Peng in unison, with a hint of expectation in their eyes.

Three years, almost three years!
It has been three years since Cao Peng was dismissed from office, and it is time for him to recover and regain his strength.Kan Ze and others have been looking forward to this day. After all, they follow Cao Peng. Only when Cao Peng rises can they have a stage to display their talents.Pang Tong and Shi Tao were relatively calm. After all, they had only been in Xudu for a short time, so they could afford to wait.

Cao Peng glanced at everyone and couldn't help laughing.

"My lord called me over, there are indeed a few things.

Father, Uncle Meng, but I want to congratulate you two... My lord wants to appoint Father as the captain of the city gate, and all the subordinates are recommended by Father. "

"City Gate Captain?"

Cao Ji was startled, and blurted out: "How can I get soldiers?"

"Didn't my father know nothing when he was in charge of Jinwucheng? My lord took my father as the captain of the city gate and had his own exams. In fact, my father only needs to do well in the affairs of the Taipu Temple. The captain of the city gate You don't need to worry. Bodao and Ziyou have been with me for many years, but they have refused to become officials. This time, my father's appointment as the captain of the city gate will allow them to become Sima... Bodao is good at managing soldiers, and Ziyou is excellent in martial arts , can be alone... As for the candidates for the Twelve City Gates, my father doesn't have to worry. I think it won't take long before there will be enough people, so my father can rest assured."

Pang Tong and Shi Tao couldn't help but feel their hearts move when they heard this.

From this brief message, the two of them heard a different meaning: Cao Cao, this is to push the Cao family to the stage!
"As for Uncle Meng, I'm afraid he has to leave Xudu."

"Oh?"

"Now that Xiliang is unstable, Ma Teng and Han are ready to move.

The lord has made up his mind to appoint Uncle Meng to be the captain of Qiang Hutou, and he will transfer Brother Hutou back from Xuzhou to serve as Sima of Qiang Huanjun. "

"what……"

Wang Meng showed surprise.

It is no wonder that Wang Mai has been stationed in the Huaibei area since he left Xudu in the second year of Jian'an. Now he is an official worshiping Guangling Sima, and he is in charge of Haixi military affairs.The official is getting bigger and bigger, but the time that belongs to him is getting less and less.From the second year of Jian'an to the present, for five years, except for correspondence, the father and son have never seen each other again.

To say that I don't miss it is pure nonsense.

Wang Meng didn't know how much he missed Wang Mai in his heart, but he couldn't help it. Who made this an appointment from the court?

Several times, Wang Meng wanted to apply for a transfer to Xuzhou, but finally endured it.

Today, his father and son will work together.Although it is necessary to stay away from the Central Plains and go to the bitter cold land of Xiliang, it is undoubtedly a beautiful thing for father and son to be together.What could be more beautiful than the reunion of his father and son?

Cao Peng raised his head and looked at Shi Tao.

"Guangyuan, are you interested in visiting Xiliang?"

Shi Tao was startled, then smiled and said, "I've heard that Liangzhou is vast, and I've long wanted to go there."

He knew that Cao Peng was planning to promote him... He and Xu Shu returned from Jingzhou, and now Xu Shu has achieved the post of Sima of the Eastern Commandery, but Shi Tao is now just a subordinate official of the Taipu Temple.On the surface, Shi Tao has no opinion, and seems to be quite content with the status quo.But actually?Why doesn't he envy Xu Shu in his heart?
Also came back from Jingzhou, Xu Shu can be a Sima, how can he fall behind the descendants.

Cao Peng said: "Uncle Meng needs to come forward in this matter and recommend it to the lord at that time. Guangyuan is a great talent, but... I have limited ability now, so I can be promoted to be the head of Lintao. Uncle Meng, the situation in Liangzhou is complicated, so we need to be cautious. The tiger head is brave and brave. After many years of experience, I am not worried about military matters, but if the internal affairs are unresolved, you can ask Guangyuan."

What he said was equivalent to establishing Shi Tao's position as the mastermind.

Shi Tao is also a person who knows things well, he quickly stood up, bowed to Wang Meng, "Please take good care of him, Uncle Meng."

Wang Meng didn't think about it too much at first, but now he heard Cao Peng's words, and he immediately felt vigilant.

That's right, if it's so easy to do Huqiang Captain, wouldn't everyone be able to do it?Since Ah Fu said that Xiliang is complicated, it must be complicated.My father and son alone may not be able to gain a firm foothold. If there is Guangyuan, great things will be accomplished.

"Guang Yuanxiu wants to be polite, and I will depend on you to help me more in the future."

Pang Tong suddenly asked: "Youxue, why did Mr. Cao make such an arrangement?"

Cao Peng hesitated for a moment, then set his sights on Kan Ze.

He took a deep breath and said after a while: "Derun, Zishan is about to leave his post. I have recommended you to the lord. Would you like to go?"

Kan Ze raised his head in astonishment, looked at Cao Peng, and suddenly understood the mystery after a while.

Cao Peng, this is asking him to stand on the last post in Haixi!
"Kan Ze will live up to your high hopes."

Pang Tong frowned, looked at Cao Peng and said, "So, Mr. Cao has decided to take back Haixi?"

Cao Peng nodded.

"What is the plan of Youxue?"

"Haixi, sooner or later, the lord will take it back. I can enjoy [-]% of Haixi's benefits for ten years, which is already the lord's love... I have already prepared for this, so it is not a surprise. This time the lord called me, There are other arrangements. As for the future, I have not yet come up with a proper idea. However, there is still plenty of time..."

Pang Tong nodded, but did not pursue further.

He also knows that this matter has already been settled, and it is useless to fight for it, but it will bring unnecessary trouble.

Now, just look at what Cao Peng plans to do next.

"Ah Fu, what does the lord arrange for you?"

Wang Meng asked curiously.

Cao Peng smiled, shook his head and said: "There is no conclusion yet, and we will know clearly after it is confirmed."

Pang Tong couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
