If you don't wear women's clothes, the big man will die!

Cao Man's confused face amused Nanxiu, he chuckled and asked, "You didn't understand what happened?"

"This, how can I understand this!" Cao Man took a breath and stammered a little: "I saw Cao Jie and him, together with the maids, killed His Majesty?! But why, His Majesty died What good is it for him, he is His Majesty's personal eunuch, all honor and disgrace rests with His Majesty!"

Cao Man couldn't figure it out, he even thought about the miserable situation where the eunuchs lost their emperor to protect them after His Majesty's death.

Nanxiu shook his head, waved his hand lightly, and the scene changed again.

Seeing Cao Jie rushing back to the palace from Cao's house, everyone seemed to be the one who wanted to harm him. The five princes were the most suspected, followed by the other regular attendants. If you don't die, you will have a future blessing, why don't I just come here like this? Be careful."

Cao Jie shook his head, and said slowly: "Wang Changshi, if they want to take my life today, they will want to touch you tomorrow."

Wang Fu was seized by his lifeblood, his expression changed again and again, and he changed his tone: "How can I help you?"

"Tomorrow will be your companion. Your Majesty has been in poor health recently. This is our opportunity," Cao Jie still spoke softly. He seldom raised his voice. What impressed people the most was his humility. Respectful and harmless.Even when he played those conspiracies and tricks, he was so understated.

Wang Fu was deep in thought, and Cao Jie's words were like a devil whispering in his ears.

"The five princes have been arrogant for too long. If there is no major change, their status will not be easily shaken. Doesn't Wang Changshi want to be a prince too? You don't want to be, I want to be!"

Wang Fu's eyes fluctuated a little, and finally nodded: "I know what to do."

Cao Jie chuckled and saluted: "Then, the Marquis of Jiejing often serves the good news."

On the day when Wang Fu accompanied him, the emperor was unwell and was bedridden with only maids and eunuchs around him.

The maid serving His Majesty was exactly Wang Fu's counterpart, and the two quietly became a "husband and wife" in the inner palace, supporting and comforting each other.

The emperor was in a bad mood when he was ill, sometimes he was furious, scolded the people around him, and sometimes took it out on the eunuchs around him, maybe one day he would dismiss the eunuchs when he was in a bad mood.The five princes scattered outside on the grounds that they had important tasks, and only sent people to watch the emperor's bedroom.

The guard's eyeliner couldn't get into the interior, which happened to give Wang Fu enough opportunities.

He respectfully knelt down on the side of the emperor's bed, looking worried about His Majesty's illness, Liu Zhi waved his hands weakly: "Go out, let me rest well."

Wang Fu hesitated to speak, and asked anxiously: "Your Majesty's dragon body is not in good condition, why don't we open an altar to offer sacrifices, please ask the gods to bless you?"

Liu Zhi twitched the corner of his mouth: "What does illness have to do with gods? Gods can't control so much."

Wang Fu looked like he was crying anxiously, but he really squeezed two tears with sincerity.

Liu Zhi waved his hand again: "I know what you mean, go out, I will sleep for a while."

Wang Fu stepped back rather unwillingly, and his eyes fell on the palace maid beside the emperor who was shaking the fan for him.

Soon, the emperor issued an edict to "amnesty the world" and changed the reign name "Yanxi" to "Yongkang". You can know one or two from the name of the reign name.

A large number of party members were pardoned, and the domestic celebrities who survived the catastrophe were burdened with the blood debt of their companions, wept bitterly, and stared at the eunuchs in the inner palace with eyes bloodshot with hatred.

The five marquis eunuchs could not persuade the emperor. At the critical moment when their lives were threatened, they used their powers to condemn all the released party members as sinners. Unwarranted charges, vowing to make the released "partisans" never recover!

The heart of an emperor is deep and unpredictable. Before he trusted the eunuchs so much, before he died, Liu Zhi recruited the old man Dou Wu, returned his official position, granted him power, and promoted the talents he recommended, such as Yang Qiao, Bian Shao and others , He also ordered the release of celebrities and talents who were still alive, such as Chen Fan and Li Ying, who were all pardoned.

Dou Wu cried bitterly: "If Your Majesty had woken up earlier, how could the courtiers lose most of it?"

As for who did it, you don't need to think about it to know that it was the eunuchs.

Liu Zhi didn't like to hear this, it seemed to be blaming him for doing something wrong before, but unfortunately, he was so ill that he didn't even have the energy to refute Dou Wu's words.

Dou Wu withdrew, Liu Zhi coughed violently again, the maid knelt beside him, and offered him a "life-saving elixir".

After Liu Zhi ate, his face was ruddy, he was sweating profusely, and he was able to speak a few more words. He called back the eunuchs of the Five Marquis who were scattered outside to suppress the "partisans", and told them: "Stop!"

"When a person is about to die, looking back on his life is absurd and absurd," the emperor laughed at himself. "It's really ridiculous that the emperor passed away and the throne fell on me, a son of a vassal. In the end, I will follow the old path of the first emperor."

The eunuchs knelt on the ground, and Wuhou was even more grateful for the imminent disaster.

"I have returned power to the court officials," Liu Zhi twitched his lips, "I just hope that my ancestors won't scold me too badly." That is something that the next emperor will worry about.

Cao Mo didn't blink his eyes, carefully watching the whole process of power transformation from the emperor's "regret".

"why?"

Cao Mo tilted his head and expressed his puzzlement: "Why didn't the government return to the courtiers sooner? He was the one who let the eunuchs take power, didn't he?"

Nanxiu sneered: "His throne came too lightly, like a windfall from the sky. Don't you have to be afraid that the courtiers will threaten him? Now that he is dead, if all the government affairs are still in the hands of the eunuchs, it will be a shame. And die, in the future he will be the notorious king of subjugation."

"The emperor came so lightly? But he is a member of the royal family!" Whether it is Cao Song or Cao Teng, the most mentioned words when teaching children are "monarch and minister", "loyalty and filial piety". The Mingyue, dedicated to the king, to be the pillar of the country, to share the worries for the king, is the lifelong pursuit of the Han students.

Since when has the imperial throne become a lightweight thing?

The male cultivator then said: "There are so many vassal states in the world, and the descendants of the Liu surname don't know how many people, and it fell on him alone. Do you think it's a windfall? Do you know that there was once a prince named Liu Sheng who lived a full life?" He had more than 120 sons, sons and grandsons, grandchildren and grandchildren, and it has been passed down from generation to generation to this day, and the descendants gathered in Liu Sheng's fief, forming Liujia Village, most of them became ordinary villagers, farming at sunrise and resting at sunset."

What Nanxiu didn't say was that if the emperor collapsed without a son, people would no longer respect the emperor after two more visits, and the dynasty would perish sooner or later.

Cao Mo exaggeratedly exclaimed with a knowledgeable expression, "More than 120 sons?!"

How prolific this should be!

Look at his father again, after drinking Chinese medicine for so long, half of his son was not born.

"The topic is far away, continue today's lecture, do you know why Cao Jie wanted to promote the emperor's death in advance?"

Cao Mo thought hard: "Is it because the Wuhou eunuch wants to kill him?"

"anything else?"

"Also, he wants to be a Marquis?" Cao Man thought of what Cao Jie said to the eunuch Wang Fu before.

"Yes, what he wants is a more honorable position than the eunuch Wuhou."

"But the emperor is dead, how did he get the honorable position?"

Nanxiu stared at Cao Man with cold eyes, his eyes were meaningful: "He will do what Cao Teng did back then."

A sentence of Cao Teng set off all the stories about Xiao Tengzi in Cao Man's memory. At this moment, the longing and longing for his grandfather hit his heart, leaving a sore and itchy trace.

"Those who observe carefully, even if they don't know what happened before, can still find subtle traces in the first scene," Nanxiu taught Cao Man: "Life is not a dream, and you don't have clairvoyance, you can see the whole world." What happened, if you want to be able to understand the situation and understand the stakes, you must be bold and careful, dare to guess, and be good at observation."

He once again showed the first scene played before to Cao Meng, pointing to the maid who peeked at Wang Fu many times, Wang Fu's jade belt and other details, and told him: "This maid is so in love with Wang Fu, from the look in her eyes We know one or two that Wang Fu's belt was a gift from Cao Jie."

He pointed to Cao Jie's lips again: "Look, someone poisoned him. Although he was discovered in time, the poison has not been eliminated, so that his lips are blue and his face is dark blue. Just look at the eyes he casts on the eunuch Wuhou."

Nanxiu casually cut a [-]D video, played it over and over again like a moving picture, and Cao Jie's subtle resentment in his eyes made Cao Mo shudder and took a step back.

After the moving picture speeded up and slowed down, repeated again and again, the originally scary scene revealed a wonderful sense of joy, causing Cao Man to cover his mouth and almost burst out laughing.

God!This makes him how to face the eunuch Cao Jie, what to do when he sees him laugh every time in the future!

Nanxiu rubbed his chin and murmured: "No wonder you want to laugh, you really have some ghosts in this way."

He casually wiped out the moving picture of ghosts and animals, and told Cao: "So you must have a pair of eyes that are good at discovering, listen more and see more, power is the most terrifying thing, in the deep palace, there are many people in disguise. You devil of skin, even if you stand on the highest place, remember not to underestimate any small person, ghosts and snakes will make you stumble."

Cao Man was ignorant, nodding what he understood, writing down what he didn't understand, and slowly recollecting it later, his little head was filled with all kinds of chaotic relationships in the inner palace, he frowned slightly .

"There is no strategy in life. You will encounter even more troublesome things in the future. When you face them, there will be no husband to analyze them for you." Nanxiu nodded Cao Man's head and said earnestly: "You have to learn to think, Weigh the trade-offs, act after three or four, if one person thinks, it is easy to get into a dead end, then two people think, three people think, and the premise of being good at thinking needs to be based on rich knowledge content.”

This is the most profound and longest course Cao Man has taken since he followed the system. He didn't feel tired, but was aroused unprecedented interest. The male trainer taught him how to analyze people's subtle movements and observe where the details first come from. Observation made Cao Man very hungry and thirsty, and he had an unprecedented yearning for learning.

In the end, Nanxiu brainwashed Cao Meng, "Learning is the root of getting rid of ignorance."

Its daybreak.

Cao Meng woke up and ran to find Cao Song, his eyes sparkled, and he said excitedly and expectantly, "Father, I'm going to school!"

Mischievous, troublemakers suddenly have to go to school?

Cao Song was puzzled. Seeing his son's appearance, it seemed that he had a sudden impulse. He poured cold water on his blood for a while, "Now you keep saying that you want to go to school. When you go to school, you won't study hard."

"No, this time I will definitely listen to the gentlemen in class!" Cao Man replied firmly.

Cao Song pondered for a moment, then explained to him: "You are old too, so let me just say it straight. Before that, Cao Jie, the Zhongchang attendant, had an appointment with me for half a year when he came here. He asked me to call me sick for half a year, and you waited on me at home. .”

They were all on the cusp of the storm, and the eunuchs of Wuhou watched them every day, trying not to show their heads if they could.

Cao Song sighed and said, "I have wronged us, Mr. Man, you can't invite him. It's easy to leak the news. You only have the rich collection of books at home for you to consult. Why don't you let your father teach you?"

Cao Song also mentioned the glorious history of his No. 1 graduation from the University of Ethereum, and he patted his chest to assure that his knowledge was amazing.

With a bitter face, Cao Mo said unceremoniously: "Listening to father's lectures is like listening to heavenly scriptures. You can learn by yourself, but you can't teach others."

Cao Song choked, and said with an ugly face, "Can't you show Wei father some face?"

Cao Meng laughed, and was slapped by his own father.

"In short, I will send you to Taixue in half a year."

"Oh, it's not that scary." The eunuch Wuhou was about to die.

Cao Man said half of it, but was silenced again, he blinked, and closed his mouth with unsatisfied intentions.

Cao Song said sternly: "The situation is much more serious than you imagined. In the past six months, many people outside will stare at our house, so you should honestly study at home and don't go out casually."

Cao Man curled his lips and sighed like a little adult.

Alas, knowing too much and being unable to speak out is so sad!

At the end of the first year of Yongkang, a cold current swept across the city of Luoyang, and snowflakes fluttered across the streets and alleys.The news of the emperor's death was announced to the world, and the whole country mourned.

Empress Dou, who was imprisoned in the harem, had a chance to turn around. Dou Wu and other foreign relatives made a grand appearance to preside over the government. A royal descendant of Caide is established as the new emperor.

The eunuchs of the five marquises could not protect themselves. The scholar-bureaucrats who had been persecuted by them before were burdened with blood debts, and they all targeted their lives one by one.

The literati and bureaucrats outside rejoiced all over the world, the crisis alarm was completely eliminated, and Luoyang City, which was in the shadows, finally ushered in the bright and bright sunshine.

Finally, Cao Man didn't have to hold back his little secret. He hurried to find Cao Song, and saw him chatting with guests in the study, wandering outside several times, looking around.

Cao Man was very curious: this was the first time since his father had an accident to receive friends!

Cao Song cleared his throat and raised his voice, "Auspicious, come in."

Cao Man was shocked. Hearing this auspicious sentence, he seemed to have received some special signal, and immediately put on a serious and steady expression: "Father."

"This is Li Ying from Yongle Shaofu, my former colleague, you can call him Uncle Li!"

The power of the court returned to the courtiers, and the friendship between Cao Song and Li Ying was revived. The long prison life hollowed out Li Ying's body, making him skinny, weak and pale. Like the breeze and bright moon, it seems that it will drift away with the wind at any time.

It was the first time Cao Man saw such a person, he blinked curiously, and carefully lowered his voice: "Hello, Uncle Li."

Li Ying smiled heartily: "Time flies so fast, the little baby back then has grown up so much now."

Cao Man was puzzled: "Has Uncle Li ever met me?"

Cao Song smiled and said, "Not only have I met you, but I have also held you in your arms."

During the party imprisonment, the literati Cao Song helped in private wrote letters and gave gifts after being rescued. Li Ying, who had the best relationship, was promoted after he was released from prison. When he recovered, he came to talk to Cao Song.

"I heard that Jugao was accidentally injured. I am extremely sorry. Fortunately, you saved your life. Now that the late emperor returned to the courtiers, you no longer have to worry about being harmed by the eunuchs. You have been helped by Jugao before, and please accept me as a gift." .”

Li Ying has always repaid revenge with revenge, and repaid favor with kindness. In his opinion, friendship is as important as official position and reputation.

Cao Song supported Li Ying, and he shook his head: "It's nothing more than a little effort, you and I are both from the Taixue, and we are disciples of the emperor. We should do things for the country and the people. I only hope that the government will be clear in the future, so that the students who have been waiting for many years There is a place where you can show your strengths.”

As he said that, Cao Song's eyes darkened: "I did a lot of hard work in arresting the 'party members' before, and it's only natural that Dou Guozhang can't tolerate me, but it's a pity for Geely. Go to school."

Cao Man looked up: "What happened?"

Li Ying raised his hand to signal Cao to be safe and not to be impatient, and comforted Cao Song, "Everyone knows that you are a 'eunuch's minion', and those who are really helped by you will speak for you. Chen Fan has already gone to persuade Dou Guozhang."

Cao Song shook his head and smiled wryly: "It's not easy to save your life, how can you expect more?"

Li Ying thought for a moment, glanced at Cao Man, changed the subject and said, "Your son likes to study, that's a good thing. Ju Gao has read all the books in the Taixue, and he has learned a lot, why don't you teach him yourself?"

When this was mentioned, Cao Song wanted to sigh even more.

Cao Man stuck out his tongue, and whispered to Li Ying: "My father can only read books by himself, he can't teach others. He talks about profound things in class, and I can't understand them."

Li Ying couldn't help laughing, and suggested: "In this case, how about letting your son study with me?"

After Li Ying was born in Sangong, his family has a long history, and he is also a well-known celebrity in the country. Before he was imprisoned, even the five princes were afraid of him.

With him teaching Cao Man, the negative impact brought by Cao Song's "eunuch's minion" will no longer affect Cao Man's future studies and career. This proposal is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow, and it is a great favor to the Cao family!

Cao Song was grateful, and hurriedly ordered Cao to bring tea and water without concealment, and recognized Li Ying as his husband.

The new dynasty has a new atmosphere, with Dou Wu as the leader and Chen Fan and Hu Guang as important ministers, the situation of the court is a foregone conclusion.

"I heard that the first emperor returned the official seal to Dou Guozhang, and the eunuchs of the five princes were in a mess. I was dismissed and returned to my hometown and would never be hired. I planned to start a private school to make a living, but I didn't expect to be called back by Dou Guozhang," Li Ying laughed heartily. Said: "The world is really unpredictable, the world is unpredictable!"

Cao Mo served Li Ying tea as Cao Song ordered, and Li Ying nodded with a smile.

Li Ying, "the head of the Eight Talents", has the reputation of a model in the world. He is upright and just. Since he taught Cao Man, he has devoted himself to cultivating morality and taught him how to compose Fu.

Li Ying may not be as good as Cao Song in essay writing, but if you teach others, he can beat Cao Song by several blocks.

Because Cao Song was dismissed from office by Dou Wu, and now he is at home, the Taixue, which needs official positions to allow future generations to enter, naturally has no place for Cao Meng.

With a new lecturer, Cao Mo was quickly attracted attention, and he no longer stayed at home, but followed Li Ying to run around the streets and alleys, and by the way, he met Chen Fan, a famous man who was born in a military general and had a leading righteous character.

Although he is an important minister of the court, the second one is not very airy in front of the children. Chen Fan often mentions Cao Teng, and his nostalgia is palpable.

Although Cao Teng is dead, the favor he once broadcast is blooming everywhere. The small bud in Cao Mo's heart has blossomed into a flower called ambition. He thinks that he will become a person who is beneficial to the country like his grandfather in the future, even if he dies. In the end, there are still celebrities at home and abroad thinking about it, how great it is!

Chen Fan said with emotion: "Recently, the vassal states have submitted candidates suitable for succession, and there are 17 people. I am busy with business and cannot stop, so I don't have time to come and drink with you."

Li Ying laughed and said, "But do you envy me that I am free now? I manage His Majesty's private treasury. Now that there is no His Majesty in the palace, naturally there is no need to work every day. Only when there is a new emperor will I really have to be busy."

When they mentioned the new emperor, the two of them blushed. They would never be able to participate in the election of the new emperor, which excited these literati. Isn't it their lifelong wish to be appointed wise and wise, to assist the emperor to achieve peace and prosperity?

The two drank together, imagining the future, pointing to the rising sun in the sky, and wishing that the great Han would be immortal.

Cao Meng grabbed the snack and ate it like a little hamster, nodding from time to time, as if he agreed with their long-cherished wish and great ambition.

These days are the times when he has gained the most knowledge. Whether it is day or night, he has new knowledge to enrich his brain. What he sees, thinks and hears, the pattern is completely different from before. Cao Man is deeply touched. Whenever I met Cao Song, I would say with a smile: "Father, I have grown up, and the Cao family will rely on me to shine in the future."

The white body Cao Song stared dryly, pointed at Cao Man angrily, and said angrily: "Even if you become a high-ranking official in the future, I will still be your old man!"

Seeing that his father was so energetic, Cao was even happier. He was like a cheerful sparrow all day long, flying here and there, sometimes jumping on a branch to chirp and sing.

Maybe God saw that Cao Man was too leisurely and provoked the anger of the public, causing him a big trouble, all of this was caused by Cao Jie!

However, the officials in the court discussed that the selection and assessment of the new emperor should be carried out, and the heirs of the vassal states gathered in their youth should be taught and inspected.Only a son who is outstanding, talented, and recognized by everyone can become an emperor.

Those who came from the feudal kingdoms were all relatives of the Liu family, the sons of the kings, some from prominent families, some from poor families, in terms of blood, they were all the same, but in terms of talents, virtues and reputations, there were huge differences.

Since it is necessary to teach and test performance, accompanying readers are needed. Hu Guang suggested to find accompanying readers from among the descendants of the ministers of the DPRK and China, so that people can be arranged for evaluation, and it can also help the princes learn how to govern the country, and cultivate the future of the country. Pillars, in fact, serve multiple purposes.

This proposal was unanimously agreed by the high-ranking officials and ministers, and many people even dreamed of "following the merits of the dragon".

It stands to reason that Cao Song did not have an official position, and this work did not fall on Cao Man's head. Cao Man was also puzzled. When he taught that night, the male instructor roughly restored the truth for him.

This shows the system's love for the heirs. I am afraid that Cao Man will fall into the battle in the inner palace in a daze. I would rather let him see more of the dark side, and I don't want the heirs who have finally cultivated young seedlings to be damaged by conspiracy and tricks. superior.

In the dream, Cao Man saw the eunuchs of the five princes who honestly managed the sundries in the inner palace. Although they were deprived of the right to participate in government affairs, they lived a good life.

"Don't Master Dou avenge the celebrities after he came to power?"

Cao Meng thought that the eunuchs of Wuhou were already dead!

With a wave of the male cultivator's hand, the scene changed to the quarrel between the queen mother and Dou Wu's father and daughter.

Empress Dowager Dou said sadly: "The harem is miserable and lonely, only they can listen to my daughter's complaints. When my daughter is suffering, it is these people who comfort me and give me the motivation to live. Where is my father at that time?"

Sadly, there are not only eunuchs and maids in the harem, but also countless women who have buried their youth and lives here.

Empress Dowager Dou tried her best to protect the eunuchs, but Dou Wu had no choice but to shake his sleeves and leave.

Seeing this silence for a while, Cao Man sighed softly: "Oh, woman!"

The male cultivator glanced at him, afraid that this kid would suffer a lot if he underestimated women due to the influence of the old thinking of this era!On the second day, the system replaced a female cultivator in pink to teach Cao Man.

The eunuch of the Five Marquises is gone. Of course, a new eunuch must be supported to replace the inner palace. Cao Jie, who had been "persecuted" by the Five Marquis before, became the new favorite of important officials such as Dou Wu and Chen Fan.

Cao Jie is obedient, listens to them, knows how to be grateful, and is kind to others!

Dou Wu was very satisfied, and so was Chen Fan.

Cao Man watched helplessly as the eunuch, who was talking nonsense to others, used a harmless expression on his face to fool people, and sometimes mentioned Cao Teng in front of Chen Fan and others.

What mentor taught me to be grateful, what godfather once said, eunuchs should be humble and obedient, serve their master wholeheartedly, and dare not dream about power and wealth.

Soon, Cao Jie was promoted and made a fortune, and he was on top of the Wuhou eunuch, and had the power to order the Wuhou to do things.

Even though he has a higher status, he is still humble, doing his job seriously, and has no idea of ​​using his power to avenge his revenge. Dou Wu is more satisfied.

Cao Man pointed at Cao Jie's projected fair face, and scolded: "What a shameless eunuch, how dare he step on my grandfather's old blood!"

The female nun who taught him was trembling with laughter, and tapped Cao Jiexuying lightly with her finger: "Just watch how he reached the highest point. Such the best teaching material is once in a thousand years!"

Female cultivators are more ruthless than male cultivators. Perhaps it is because women are naturally fond of gossip. She has picked up everything about Cao Jie's life, mental state, how he developed to the present transformation, and so on. In her eyes, Cao Jie was as early as Like a plucked white chicken, it was laid out clearly and plainly for Cao Meng to study and study.

The princes of the vassal states came to Luoyang one after another. Among them, the one who was most likely to inherit the throne was a royal minister named Liu Min. He was extremely talented and had a reputation for handling cases impartially in his hometown. It can be described as a young talent.

The sons of the rest of the vassal states are not weak either. Some are filial and honest and become officials at a young age, and some worship famous scholars as teachers.

Dou Wu arranged for eunuchs and court ladies to wait on them, and arranged for them to read with them. Most of them chose a few talented scholars who were expected to ascend the throne.Only Cao Jie, he chose the poorest little Liu Hong, whose father died young, and his mother depended on each other, and whose family was so poor that he couldn't get rid of it!

Dou Wu asked Cao Jie suspiciously, "You like him very much?"

Cao Jie shook his head, and said in a soft voice: "Your servant is guilty, but seeing such a young child alone and helpless, I think of my own misery before entering the palace, and I feel pity in my heart."

Dou Wudao: "What's the crime? This is your advantage. Compared with other eunuchs, I value your kindness the most."

Regarding this, Cao Man pointed to Dou Wu's old face and said indignantly, "Open your eyes and go blind!"

The nun laughed even louder.

Cao Jie knelt on the ground and said to Dou Wu: "Other princes have heirs from hundreds of officials' families as companions, and Prince Hong can't be without companions, isn't it fair?"

Dou Wu shook his head: "He is too young, I cannot find a suitable candidate."

What's more, the family conditions are so poor, there are no famous teachers, and the background is too poor to be an emperor.

Cao Jie said again: "The grandson of the benefactor is already 11 years old, the same age as Hong's son."

Dou Wu recalled: "Grandson of Cao Teng? Son of Cao Song?"

He murmured: "No, I won't agree to Cao Song's reinstatement. It's useless for you to talk about it. There's nothing to say about it."

Cao Jie obediently complied, and quietly retreated without further entanglement.

Soon, Chen Fan and Li Ying found Dou Wu one after another, the meaning was obvious: you demoted Cao Da Changqiu's son, are you planning to suppress his grandson?Think about Cao Teng's kindness to you back then, you have to be forgiving and forgiving!

Dou Wu thought about it for a second, Liu Hong had little hope of inheriting the position, and it was nothing to bring Cao Song's son in as a companion.

"Okay, then let's take him into the palace! It can be regarded as repaying Cao Teng's kindness back then, so that his grandson can have the opportunity to study."

There are few opportunities for famous teachers to teach, and it is a rare opportunity for companions to follow the princes to learn the knowledge taught by the important officials in the court.

Cao Man was stunned: "So, I was chosen as a companion? To accompany an 11-year-old kid to study?!"

The female cultivator shook her head, and asked Cao Man back, "Do you trust Cao Jie's vision?"

Cao Mo had a deep understanding of the eunuch, and he said frankly: "Although he likes to lie, is ruthless, and has a sweet mouth, but his brain is very smart, and his vision...well, I believe it."

"Will he choose someone who has no chance of winning to pay useless labor?" the nun asked again.

Cao Man lowered his head, thoughtfully: "So Cao Jie thinks that this son Hong will be the final winner?"

"Wealth and wealth are sought in danger," the female cultivator laughed loudly, "This is a crazy eunuch!"

Cao Man opened his eyes from his sleep, and sat up depressed. He knew so many things, but he couldn't understand that Cao Jie was using him as a pawn.

"Father is right. I was really reckless before."

Cao Man took a moment to reflect, and soon cheered up.

Follow the sons of the world to learn!

The important ministers of the court are giving lectures intensively!

What a great opportunity, even if Hong Shizi fails to fight for the throne and returns to his hometown in the future, it will be worthwhile for him to learn so much knowledge along with him.

As for the turbulent undercurrent and bloody wind entering the inner palace, others will be afraid, but he is not afraid of hiding it!

The next day, the imperial decree to invite Cao to enter the palace was indeed sent to Cao's house.

Cao Man quietly observed his father, and found that Cao Song was in a good mood?

"Aren't you worried about me being a companion in the palace?" Cao Man asked, "I heard that there are cannibals in the palace. I'm so scared."

He said he was afraid on his mouth, but his eyes revealed an expression of eagerness to try.

Cao Song slapped him on the back of the head, and began to babble: "When you enter the palace, listen more, watch more, learn more, talk less and don't do superfluous things, especially don't be fierce and brave. This is a rare learning opportunity. , Hong Shizi has almost no chance of succeeding to the throne, and no one will target him as an enemy. You just study hard and honestly. Sending you in is a great opportunity for you to go to school. Just look at it, This group of 'companions' who have studied with the princes of the princes will be the pillars of the court in the future! Yuan Li also said that he is in charge of the emperor's private treasury and the internal affairs department, and will take good care of you."

Cao Meng suddenly realized: "It turns out that the master came to look for my father."

He also wondered why the protector's own father was willing to let him leave the palace.

Everyone felt that Hong Shizi had no hope of inheriting the throne, only Cao Man, who had seen more about Cao Jie's long-sleeved dance skills and secret strategies in the inner palace, had a kind of enigmatic confidence in his choice.

The carriage that came to pick up Cao Man came in the afternoon. He carried the bookcase on his back, brought pen and ink and a carving knife, and brought the adventure and excitement of the unknown to the palace where he had studied countless times in his dreams.

This is also the first time Cao Man saw Liu Hong. He was 11 years old, but he looked like a seven or eight-year-old doll, thin and white, and his eyes were already stained with melancholy at such a young age, lifeless Like a little old man.

Whenever he met the eyes of other glamorous princes and princes, he would avoid their eyes, shrunk and cautiously avoided the crowd, and went back to the house to study alone.

Cao Jie greeted Cao Meng in person. He turned away from the left and right, with a sincere smile on his face: "I haven't seen you for a few months, my dear nephew, did you ever miss your uncle? Today is the time to repay your life-saving grace. gone."

Cao Meng snorted coldly, and said in his heart: I believe you ghost!

This was a slip of the tongue when Nanxiu was teaching him, but Cao Mo remembered it.

Cao Mo said angrily: "You praised my letter to my father, which caused me to be beaten for nothing!"

Cao Jie covered his mouth, his shoulders shook, and he said with a smile: "My father is only afraid that you will be in danger, and if you care about it, you will be confused."

Cao concealed his nostrils and was very dissatisfied with Cao Jie.

Cao Jie couldn't help laughing, and gently persuaded: "The past is over, can I apologize to you? Look, I heard that you love to study, so I tried to give you a chance. Don't look at Hong Shizi Thin and weak, his intellectual endowment is unexpected, if you study with those who work hard, you will become an excellent person yourself, right? You are the grandson of your teacher, how can I harm you?"

Cao Man was suspicious, looked Cao Jie up and down, and asked bluntly: "'Uncle' brought me in without my consent, what exactly do you want me to do? If you don't make it clear, you have seen my temper before, so you are afraid You also got into trouble in the palace, which made it difficult for you to clean up."

The smile on Cao Jie's face gradually faded, he always felt that the young man in front of him seemed to have seen through everything and had seen him through completely.Cao Jie was slightly startled, and immediately denied this idea: Impossible, except godfather Cao Teng, no one in this world can see through what he wants!What's more, it's still an 11-year-old child, a wolf cub who grew up in a honeypot, except for sharper teeth, and a few soft yells, nothing else.

Cao Jie was tolerant and generous like a saint, and Cao Man questioned him like a hedgehog, which made him appear innocent and ignorant, and made him feel more at ease.

He stretched out his hand, patted Cao Man on the shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: "A man, you are a smart child, you should know that being too sharp will easily lead to disasters, and the consequences of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers will be eaten by tigers into the stomach."

"Uncle, is he saying that he is a tiger?" Cao Jie put pressure on him, but Cao Man found the feeling of teaching in class in a dream. He relaxed, not afraid of Cao Jie at all, and asked back with a smile.

"Why, you and I are on the same boat now," Cao Jie said softly, "The imperial palace is a tiger's den. Only by being able to endure and hide one's clumsiness can you wait for the fleeting opportunity. You are the grandson taught by your teacher himself , I am a disciple who has followed him since childhood, there is no conflict of interest between us, we can cooperate."

"If you don't let me in, I won't be in any danger." Cao Mo stated the facts calmly: "You are really my 'pro' uncle, and you are relentless when you cheat your family."

"Because you are from my own family, I believe in your ability, and I also believe that you are not a young man willing to be ordinary." Cao Jie and Cao Man looked at each other with a gentle tone, and their attitude was as if they were treating their peers, not putting on the airs of an elder: " Your father's position makes him taboo by Dou Wu. Your greatest advantage is your age. Don't you want to win glory for your grandfather and make a career? A man should do a career upright, and you too It’s not too young anymore, it’s time to make plans for your future like an adult.”

Cao Jie is too good at talking, completely scratching Cao Man's itch
