Chapter 26 Baibo rises up

Because of He Jin's hospitality, everyone left the General's Mansion after lunch. Cao Cao felt a lot of emotion, and thought that the Taiwei's Mansion was nearby, so he happened to go to see what his father was up to, so he took Da Wanma across two streets and came straight to the Taiwei's Mansion. Cao Cao handed over the famous thorn, and the gatekeeper Shi saw that it was the son of the Taiwei who had come, so he hurriedly returned the famous thorn, and let him in with a smile on his face. Taiwei's Mansion is the largest among the Sangong's Mansions, but Cao Cao is not very familiar with it. He only came to Qiao Xuan twice more than ten years ago when Qiao Xuan was in this position. Since then, he has been appointed by either the Cao family's deadly enemy or the emperor's order The unbearable person, he will have no chance to come in again.

It was also Cao Cao who let go of two glasses of wine, and then walked around the various subordinate houses nonchalantly.Looking at them one by one, I can't help being disappointed, how can the current Taiwei Mansion be a little angry?At the beginning, Yang Ci used Liu Tao for the public, Qiao Xuan for the public Cai Yong, and Deng Sheng for the public Wang Yun. I don't know how many ministers came out of these subordinate houses. But when my father becomes a captain, he employs old officials, some of whom have lost all their teeth, and they crawl on the desks and take a nap when they can't stand it at noon. Although these people are not bad people, they are mediocre. Sparse talent.There are a few young ones, but they are not as good as the old ones. They are all Xiaoxiao from the Hongdu family. Cao Cao also saw Tai Chong and Feng Shuo, two courtiers who were handpicked by the emperor himself, and his heart suddenly felt angry.

After all the transfers, before he came to the Tai Pavilion, the two Zhige Lingshi knew his identity and let him into the pavilion with a flattering smile.Cao Cao went in and saw that it was deserted and deserted. Only his father was sitting in front of the desk writing. The official documents on the desks were all piled up, and there was a plate of snacks.I ordered two charcoal pots when it was cold in the first month.But the two fires in the huge room couldn't warm up at all, instead they made a pungent charcoal gas.Seeing such a scene, Cao Cao felt pity for his father who was Sangong.

When Cao Song saw him coming, he put down his pen and said, "Hmph! The Zhige is getting more and more boneless now. When Wang Gong was a captain, his son Wang Chang was blocked when he wanted to go in to say a word. But now Fortunately, if you want to come in, not only will you not be stopped, but you will be greeted with a smile." "Then you pay them all, and don't let these sycophants make a fuss here." Cao Song ignored this, but said, "Have you been drinking again, kid? Sit down and get warm." Cao Cao found a stool by himself, brought it to the charcoal basin and sat down to warm his hands.Seeing that he was speechless, Cao Song raised his eyelids and said, "How is it? I went to the shogunate, how do you feel?"

"Much better than yours." "Hehehe..." Cao Song nodded, "You are telling the truth." Cao Cao also laughed and said, "The General's Mansion, what do you mean by that sentence... Power is in the hands of the government! I think it's almost time to manage the Shangshu." Cao Song suppressed his smile and said, "Ah... How many people have you met, Captain Xiyuan?" "I met them all." "Meet them all?" Cao Song raised his eyebrows, "Isn't the captain of the military academy still unidentified?" "Eight success is He Jin."

"Nonsense. You young people, the biggest problem is to speculate, and you dare to say anything. Do you really think that Long Live Today is a fool? Let me tell you, the reason why he hasn't announced that he will be a lieutenant in the military academy until now, there must be something. His own plan." Cao Song suddenly realized something when he said this, his eyes sparkled, "Maybe his plan is terrible. Man, be careful!" "This matter is scary enough now. Even if he can find someone who is not close to He Jin, counting me, there are already seven people in the shogunate. He wants to limit He Jin's military power, but Seeing that everyone still ran to his side. And it was such an open gathering, without considering the impact, I stayed there for more than an hour, and I was terrified to hear what they said."

"Keep your heart in your stomach," Cao Song picked up his pen again, "although the law is strict, you can't blame the people. Besides, if you don't need the seven of you, who else can you use? You can't use eunuchs in the army to quell chaos, right? If you can’t fight, you have to choose someone who can fight. But as long as they are able to fight, they are all under He Jin’s command these years, so changing the seven of you will not solve the problem, it will only make more trouble.” "Well, it makes sense." Cao Cao had a plate of dim sum before reading the case, so he took a piece and put it in his mouth, "Oh! This yokan is really delicious...Father, I don't think these seven people are in the same boat, Xia Mouna People of the older generation, Feng Fang is Cao Jie's son-in-law, but now he is willing to bow down when he enters the shogunate. Then Feng Fang and Yuan Shu are very close, and they only need to wear a pair of trousers."

"That's the crux." Cao Song had just written two words, but when he heard this, he didn't feel like writing any more. He stood up and said, "Isn't the situation of Feng Fang very similar to that of our family? Even if we are eunuch children like this, Who else can stop what is going on?" "I think He Jin is just a cover for Yuan Shao." "Huh? What do you mean?" "Nine times out of ten these celebrities entered the shogunate because of Yuan Benchu ​​and Uncle He. It is false to help He Jin. It is true that they intend to fight against the current emperor and eradicate the eunuchs."

"Anyone who wants to get rid of Shi Changshi can see it, but I haven't found out about the Yuan family's affairs. It seems that the old fox Yuan Wei must be behind the scenes again." "Mr. Yuan's idea? I don't think so. It seems like Yuan Benchu ​​invited himself to fame." "You really believe his nonsense. Our family has its own division of labor. Isn't their old Yuan's family the same? Yuan Wei is looking for another way, and he is going to abandon the current Wansui." Cao Song sighed, "Under the world A villain should not be hateful, but a hypocrite is hateful. The Yuan family is an out-and-out hypocrite when we talk behind closed doors."

Cao Cao thought to himself: "He is a hypocrite, so you are a real villain?" But he never dared to say that, he just teased: "Maybe." "He Jin is a fool, and he didn't even know he was a swordsman. Now he is too sharp, even surpassing the emperor." "Did the ten permanent servants give the emperor any advice?" "They're done!" Cao Song shook his head. "The ten permanent attendants are only concerned with saving their lives. I heard that recently they are fawning over Empress Dowager Dong and Empress He at the same time. They dare not offend either side, and they are extremely busy."

"What's the matter with the Queen Mother?" "The queen mother doesn't like the He family, and hopes to make the little prince Liu Xie the crown prince in the future. Two months ago, the ministers fought for the country's foundation and asked for Shihou to be the crown prince, but the emperor didn't agree. The He family and the Dong family fought secretly, the most pitiful It was He Miao, the Uncle of the Two Kingdoms, who made every effort to cling to Zhang Rang, and it is not good inside and out. He Jin hates him, and the Dong family hates him, and the ten permanent servants ignore him. He deserves to be unlucky! He doesn't have eyes... " "He doesn't have eyes?" Cao Cao ate another piece of snack, "Isn't our rebel slave Qin Yilu even more blind?" Cao Song laughed "puchi" and said, "His intestines are full of regrets. The snacks you eat are his filial piety to me." Cao Cao almost choked, and threw down the half-eaten yokan: "Cough! Cough! Why did he eat it? coming?" "If you want to curry favor with me, let him come back! That kid was terrified a few days ago and found several secret letters, which were written to Wang Qian by Shi Yingshao and Sima Leyin, the chiefs of General Chaqi's mansion. It was He Miao's man, but in fact Wang Qian sent him over to monitor He Miao. Qin Yilu didn't dare to offend the two of them, and he was afraid that He Miao's misfortune would be implicated in the future, so he wanted to go back to our house. Bah! Good horses don't turn back Damn, how can I want him again!" "Wang Qian is so scheming!" Cao Song shook his head and said, "Based on what you said just now, I think Yuan Kui has good intentions. This old fox is on a business trip to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao finds another Wang Qian, and Wang Qian pulls out Le Yin and Ying Shao. According to this line, you Everyone I saw today stroked it, to see if everyone can stroke that old fox's head?" Cao Cao closed his eyes and meditated: "The party members can reach He Yong, and He Yong is the Yuan family; the people of the Northern Army reach the Bao family brothers, and the Bao family brothers are the Yuan family; Qingliu celebrities When I got to Wang Qian, Wang Qian was also from the Yuan family; I was recommended by Cui Jun, and Cui Jun was found by Yuan Shao." At this moment, he suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "What Dad said is true! The people behind the scenes It really is Yuan Kui." "I said they are hypocrites, right? You have to be on guard against Brother Yuan Shao in the future." "Yes." Although Cao Cao agreed, he didn't feel that the Yuan family had any selfish intentions other than to get rid of the eunuch.He quickly changed the subject and said, "Father, what are you up to?" "Cough! What do I have to do? Sangong doesn't record official affairs, and going to court is like a decoration! I just spend money to buy face. I copy notes every day, and I have nothing to do. Look at this whole mansion." The subordinates, are they the ones who do big things?" "I saw that half of the mediocre people are old coffins. There are also a few from the Hongdu family. Why do you also use Taichong, Feng Shuona and other villains?" "No way, who dares to scratch the lice? You say this group of people is useless, but who can be replaced? Those who are talented and famous are all in He Jin's place now. Taiwei's mansion has declined since Deng Sheng's dismissal. Zhang Wen, Zhang Yan, and Cui Lie have never changed people. I just took over these people by Xiao Gui and Cao Sui, so that’s all. To be honest, I’m pretty good here. Gong and Xu Xiang's places to see, Situ's Mansion and Sikong's Mansion are not as good as mine!" Cao Song had no choice but to say, "Being a Taiwei is a little bit good, if there is any military report, you can be the first to know." "So what happened recently?" "There are too many things." Cao Song flipped through the large stack of military newspapers, "Yuyang Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju colluded with the Karasuma people to make trouble, captured the city and captured the territory, and killed Liu Zheng, the prefect of Youbeiping, Yang Zhong, the prefect of Liaoyang, and Hu Karasuma Xiao. Wei Gong Zhuan Chou. Now the imperial court has urgently appointed Liu Yu as the governor of Youzhou, and a few days ago, a cavalry captain named Gongsun Zan was appointed." "Riding captains is flying all over the sky now, and it's worthless at all—what else?" Cao Cao still cared about fighting. "Wang Fen, governor of Jizhou, conspired against..." Cao Cao was taken aback: "How is it?" "What are you shouting about!" Cao Song's face darkened, "Wang Fen conscripted troops in the name of conquest of Montenegro, intending to use the time when Wansui is touring the old house in the north to make trouble, and immediately detain him and set up another Marquis of Hefei. Now Wansui is not going, his The conspiracy was revealed. The general, Sima Zhao Jin, came to Jizhou, Wang Fen and Zhou Jing committed suicide, and the Marquis of Hefei died with poisoned wine." "and then?" "Then what? Wang Fen is dead, so what's next." Cao Cao let out a sigh of relief. Although Zhou Jing died, it seemed that Xu You escaped.Fearing that his father might be suspicious, Cao Cao hurriedly asked again: "Is there anything else? I just arrived in Beijing and I want to know more." Cao Song flipped through the bamboo slips again and said, "Oh, a bandit named Guanhu came out of Lingling, who called himself 'General Pingtian', and was wiped out by Sun Jian, the prefect of Changsha." "Sun Wentai has become the prefect of Changsha?" Cao Cao was quite surprised. "You know him?" "I fought together in Wancheng. At that time, he was just a captain who caught robbers. How could he be promoted so quickly now?" "Let's fight! I fought a few battles in Liangzhou with Zhang Wen and Dong Zhuo, and when I came back, I Ping Quxing, Ping Zhouchao, and Ping Guoshi. I have been fighting all these years. Can I not get promoted quickly? And... the Xiutuge tribe Zahu also followed suit and killed Xing Ji, the prefect of Xihe. Look, how many county generals have died, and Zihe still wants to go out to become the county magistrate! Isn't this looking for bad luck?" "Father, I have to remind you." Cao Cao swallowed the last piece of snack, "You have to learn about old Cui Lie as a warning. If there are too many rebellions, the captain will be dismissed. We spent 100 million Money, you can’t throw it into the water. You see, the Xiutugehu people have already made trouble in Bingzhou when they hit Xihe, which is not far from Sili. If there is trouble in Sanfu and Sanhe, the trouble will At the feet of the Son of Heaven, you, the Taiwei, will not be safe." "I know this, but I can't decide on the matter of using soldiers, so let it be my fate! Cui Lie only spent 5 million, so he only served for seven months. We spent 100 million, so I won't be easily driven out by reason. ?" Cao Song chuckled. Suddenly, as soon as the gate opened, a Ling Shi ran in in a panic: "Report to Mr. Cao, something is wrong! In the Baibo Valley of Bingzhou, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans rebelled. The thieves plundered the prefecture and counties, and now they have entered the border of Hedong from Xihe. The common people have been greatly harmed by it, so I ask Mr. Cao to quickly request an order to make a decision." What are you afraid of? There is really a rebellion at the feet of the emperor! Cao Cao hurriedly turned to look at his father, and saw that his face was ashen, but he still comforted his son and said: "It's okay, I spent 100 million for my father...it should be no problem." It can be heard that Cao Song didn't have much confidence when he said this.
