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

"Everyone is telling you that knowledge cannot be shared," Qiao Xuan said to the guide: "You might as well ask your classmates, how many people agree to transcribe classic books and treasure them to give to people outside the Imperial Academy? "

Cao Mo hesitated and said: "Students, should they all be willing?"

Qiao Xuan was noncommittal, and said with a smile: "Why not, how about we make a bet? Just bet on the students in your class, how many people agree with your point of view."

Cao Mo became interested, he thought he could win the bet, so he asked Qiao Xuan, "How does Qiaozi plan to bet?"

"Let's bet on one!" Qiao Xuan raised his eyelids, and said to Cao, "If [-]% of the people agree with you, I will lose."

Cao Man was surprised and said: "Sir, you are so confident?"

Qiao Xuan: "Because I know I will win, fool."

Cao Man still didn't believe it: "My classmates are good people with reliable moral character. I think they will support me. Except for that idiot Yuan Shu, who was taught badly by his princess mother since he was a child, the others will definitely support me. There are still many students who come from other places, and they are lovely to learn."

Qiao Xuan shook his head: "Go and ask them!"

Cao Man was not convinced, and even offered a lottery. If anyone lost the bet, he would write a poem to praise the other party.

A student of his who flattered Mr. would at most be considered flattering, but if Qiao Xuan came to flatter him, then Cao Man would be famous!Such a beneficial and harmless bet, Cao Meng accepted it casually, he only thought that he could beat Qiao Xuan, and when he returned to the class to ask, he was dumbfounded.

In the whole class, only Yuan Shaokan gave him a little support in his pitiful and helpless state, and that was friendship support, not sincere approval.

The students from the local area even asked Cao Meng: "Why do poor families in the world learn the same knowledge as us? We have worked hard to gain a bloody road and accumulated family background and knowledge before being admitted to Taixue and gaining these precious things. Knowledge, what qualifications do they have to learn the same books as us?"

The disciples of high-ranking officials in Luoyang also said: "The Taixue is a sacred place that people in the world yearn for. How can we be swayed by the common people? We are noble students of the Taixue, which are completely different from those private school students!"

Cao Man's enthusiasm was as if someone had poured cold water on it, and his heart was chilled. He couldn't believe that such words were said by his friendly and friendly classmates.

Everyone felt that Cao Man's point of view was wrong, which made Cao Man feel absurd. He reexamined himself: Am I wrong?

No, I'm not wrong.

Cao Mo firmly believes that knowledge should not be restricted, knowledge is unlimited!

The fault is not him, but the whole world!

After returning to his residence, Yuan Shao saw that he was listless, and persuaded Cao to hide: "The privileges and interests of Taixue are for everyone to protect. If even knowledge can be shared, wouldn't the common people have the opportunity to climb into our palace in time?" On the head? Can you bear someone from a poor family to dictate to you?"

"Why not? As long as he is a truly talented person, I will only admire him. Your Majesty appoints a person based on his ability, not on his family. Otherwise, wouldn't all the important positions in the world be successful?" Is it a place where dudes use to eat, drink, play and hang out?" Cao Man disagreed with Yuan Shao's opinion, and his tone was not good.

Yuan Shao shook his head: "You have entered a dead end, I can't tell you clearly."

"You've just gotten into a dead end!" Cao Man sarcastically retorted, feeling his anger welling up and wanting to vent something.

"The students who graduated from Taixue are all talented, and they know more than others." Yuan Shao's eyes were cold. He didn't feel angry, but said helplessly to Cao: "You are 17 years old. So naive? Is it your father who protected you so well that you still can't figure out what the problem is?"

Cao Man was bet lightly by Yuan Shao and was speechless.

Why doesn't he know?

The privileges and interests of Taixue symbolize class, and no rich and powerful family is willing to have their interests taken away. The so-called equality and so-called fairness have always served the nobles.

Cao Mo is not stupid, he has already realized what Qiao Xuan wants him to understand, but this is wrong!

He made an agreement with Liu Hong!In the future, he assisted him to achieve a brilliant future, but something went wrong at the root cause, all future courtiers were descendants of those rich and powerful!The big family controls these interests, and the emperor who is supported by the rich and powerful can imagine the restrictions.

So what should the future of the big man do?The imperial court supported by taxation by all the people in the world is actually such a group of selfish nobles. Can the big man manage it well?Will His Majesty's future throne be stable?

As long as Cao Meng thinks about the deep meaning in it, he will be terrified. If the decision to share knowledge to the world's students is an order issued by the emperor, will the rich and powerful, and Luoyang courtiers, be like Dou Wu who supported His Majesty as the emperor? Are you backing someone else?

At that time, Liu Min was now working as a doctor of Guanglu. Although he was a first-rank official, his duty was to be in charge of discussing and responding, and he had no real power. At first, everyone including Liu Hong thought he would become the emperor. Dou Wu said a word , Changed all of Liu Min's future destiny.

The changes experienced in the palace and the various stories of court battles in his mind made Cao Man more and more uneasy. In addition to worrying about the future of the big man, he was also worried about Liu Hong.

If you can't appoint people who are loyal to you and cultivated by yourself, it will be very easy for those high-ranking officials who have relationships with each other to threaten the emperor.

Cao Mo went to look for Qiao Xuan dejectedly, causing Qiao Xuan to chuckle: "So you're discouraged? Didn't you say that in the future, you will be a capable minister and a general who guards the border?"

Cao Man raised his eyes to look at him, saw the paleness between Qiao Xuan's temples, and didn't speak.

Qiao Xuan said: "Back then I was expelled from the university because I copied the correct sage's words to a friend in a private school in Luoyang, and I was denounced and expelled."

Cao Meng heard Qiao Xuan tell the story again, a gleam of light appeared in his dark eyes, and he looked at him expectantly.

Qiao Xuan: "The educational standard of private schools in Luoyang is not bad. What they recruit are the children of officials below the fourth rank and the children of the rich. At that time, I was dropped out of school. But now my friend has become a senior official of the second rank, and I have become a senior official of the second rank." General, Your Majesty issued an order to appoint me as Sikong, one of the three lords. When Cai Yong suggested transcribing the words of the sages, he was the one who blocked some of the voices of opposition by submitting the memorial. Then I will guarantee Cai Yong. Support will make this matter a success.”

"However, the sage's words have been spread widely, and they have not touched the bottom line of the rich and powerful," Cao Man murmured.

"Compared to at least twenty years ago, it's already a big improvement, isn't it?" Qiao Xuan smiled, and comforted Cao Mou: "Perhaps twenty years later, poor families will also have the opportunity to learn, and there are talents in poor families. Can people who are talented people also have the opportunity to be reused? Now Cai Yong can step on the bottom line and do things that I failed to accomplish 20 years ago. Maybe you can also step on the bottom line and do things that our generation failed to accomplish in the future. It all depends on whether you can maintain your original intention at that time.”

Cao Man's eyes sparkled, and he said excitedly: "If I can keep my original intention, I can do it! When I grow up, I must find a way to make people who are really talented and learned be reused, instead of relying on family, relying on Money is the way to get promoted."

Qiao Xuan stroked his beard and smiled, nodding repeatedly, feeling extremely relieved.

Cao Man's integrity and character made him have high hopes for this young man. He hoped that Cao Man would become a great figure like Cao Teng in the future, benefiting the great man and going down in history.

Here Cao Man is worried about the stability of Liu Hong's throne, and there Liu Hong himself is also worried. No emperor can tolerate someone threatening his own emperor, and Liu Hong, who was originally a pie from the sky, became the emperor. Pay more attention to your own authority.

How many Confucian scholars were killed during the reign of the first emperor by the party?The literati and bureaucrats are burdened with blood and deep feuds, and they must not make things easier for the eunuchs.

Cao Jie and Wang Fu pinched the young emperor Liu Hong and Empress Dowager Dong respectively, and they had nothing to fear.

Liu Hong said: "Those who opposed my succession to the throne back then will be killed."

Cao Jie complied.

Empress Dowager Dong said: "All those who prevented my son from making me Queen Mother were killed."

Liu Hong agreed to do so, and Wang Fu went on a killing spree!

The two powerful eunuchs of the current dynasty seem to have become copies of the former five princes, making countless literati gnash their teeth.

But the scholar-bureaucrats have nothing to do, they are smarter and more difficult than the five princes, they have learned the lessons of the five princes, and even cultivated their own cronies in the court.

Wang Fu instigated Empress Dowager Dong: "The courtiers limit the expenses of the Empress Dowager and force Her Majesty to be frugal on the grounds that there is no money in the treasury. The servants have a new way of making money, which can help the Empress Dowager and Her Majesty solve problems."

Empress Dowager Dong, a woman from a poor family, with limited vision, has become the most noble woman in the world, and her desire/desire in her heart has been infinitely magnified. In her opinion, she has become a queen mother, and her son has become an emperor. Now, still as frugal as before?Frugal ass!

Wang Fu suggested that the queen mother buy and sell official positions, and took this opportunity to support a large number of people in positions.

On the other hand, Cao Jie, who claims to be Cao Teng alive, is also instigating the little emperor Liu Hong: "If the courtiers refuse to obey His Majesty, just kill them. After killing this batch, the next batch will be more obedient. Some people want to come. I am loyal to His Majesty. Since ancient times, it has always been famous people who disrupted the state affairs. Look at Dou Wu back then. It was because of his reputation that he was so famous that he was able to support the emperor. His Majesty was lucky enough to remove Dou Wu. You must not cultivate a new 'Dou Wu'!"

Liu Hong heard that he had a tacit attitude towards Cao Jie's killing of opponents, and officials were constantly listed as new party members. Luoyang City, which had just breathed in the sun for a short time, ushered in the second "party ban" once again. .

There is no need to be afraid of officials being killed. Anyway, in Taixue, new officials will be born to fill the vacancies.

The chaos outside did not affect Taixue, and the students went to class, assessment, and training step by step.

The bloody killing even affected Sikong, one of the three princes. Sikong Yufang was arrested, and many literati gathered to intercede for his predecessor Sikong.

Zhang Jian, who is also a celebrity, was also involved in the vortex of the party and was hunted down by officers and soldiers. Li Yingben was teaching in the elementary school and rarely went home.

Zhang Jian sent someone to send a letter to his friend Li Ying, asking for his help, hoping that Li Ying could help him escape from Luoyang. He was so surprised that Li Ying immediately asked for leave and went home.

When he realized that the situation was wrong, Li Ying couldn't believe that Liu Hong, a good boy who was modest and studious, would implement "party imprisonment". Fearing that the little emperor would be deceived by the eunuchs, he first placed Zhang Jian in his own home, and asked someone to escort the famous scholar Zhang Jian. Thrifty out of town.Then he took the memorial and went to the palace to ask for a face saint.

As a matter of course, Li Ying was rejected.

He simply had a heartbreak, imitating Qiao Xuan's original appearance, came to the prison gate and surrendered, and told Lieutenant Sili: "I have sent Zhang Jian, the 'Partyman' you called, out of the city, and now I am also a 'Partyman'." 'Okay, please ask the captain to arrest me!"

When everyone was fleeing, only Li Ying stubbornly invited him into prison. This abnormal behavior quickly aroused the vigilance of the case investigators, and they hurriedly sent messages to their superiors. Eunuch Cao Jie came to the prison in person and asked Li Ying to come out of prison and go home.

Li Ying said stiffly, "I want to see Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty fell ill from the anger of your predecessor, Sikong Yu," Cao Jie said indifferently, "Although you have taught His Majesty, you are not his master. Why should His Majesty come to see you dragging his sick body?"

Cao Jie said softly: "Isn't it good to teach peacefully in Taixue? When the Chen Fan family was wiped out, you chose to avoid it by calling your illness. How smart you were at that time!"

Cao Jie was implying that Li Ying would let things go, he didn't want things to be too ugly.

"No!" Li Ying's eyes were red: "You eunuchs are fascinated by the taste of massacring ministers. In order to eliminate dissidents, you actually do things to deceive His Majesty, and you want to subvert a big man. I must expose your face to Your Majesty. What exactly is a "Partyman"? Since when did domestic celebrities become "Partymen" again? Do you want to kill all the literati before giving up? If this is the case, then I am also a "Partyman". How about I kill it too?"

Cao Jie's eyes were cold, and he said indifferently: "Hasn't Young Master Li understood the situation yet? Do you really think that your life is very precious?"

Li Ying: "My life is not precious, but I know that it is enough for my death to awaken His Majesty."

Cao Jie shook his head, smiled softly, and said softly: "Your death will not awaken Your Majesty, since you are still obsessed with obsession, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Everyone knew that Li Ying had swaggered into prison, so he couldn't die here. Cao Jie sent him home and sent a team of imperial guards to guard him. It didn't take long for news that Li Ying was seriously ill.

How normal is it for a sick child to be seriously ill? Cao Jie calculated based on Li Ying's physical condition when he left Taixue, and ordered his subordinates: "In a month, Li Shaofu will be 'dead'. "

From Cao Jie's point of view, Zhang Jian was the one he wanted to kill, and Li Yin ruined his good deed, so he should be removed.The little emperor Liu Hong didn't know about this, and his good nephew, who could ruin his plan the most, was still studying in seclusion in the Taixue. Cao Jie felt that it would be easy to kill Li Ying without anyone noticing it. up.

Thousands of calculations were made, and Cao Song and Li Ying's good relationship was miscalculated, and Cao Jie didn't know that his good nephew Cao Man had long recognized Li Ying as his master.

For Cao Man, the third year of university is a magical time. This year, the students in the class have engaged in groups during the holidays. Some got married, like Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu brothers, and even had There are several through rooms.

Cao Song wanted to urge the marriage like most parents did, and make an engagement for his son, but Cao Man always stayed in the imperial school and didn't go home, and most of the rare holidays went to His Majesty.Cao Song is worried!Chou bald, worrying and worrying, Zou Shi is pregnant!

Cao Song used this as an excuse to go to Taixue to arrest Cao Mo and go home to accept the engagement.

After Cao Mo found out about this, he laughed loudly at his own father: "You are almost forty, and finally the 'old clam gives birth to a pearl', and your mother conceived it. When my younger brother is born, I will be pregnant. If I get married and give birth now Child, if the daughter-in-law is also pregnant, won't the younger brother be the same age as the son?"

Cao Mo used this as a reason, and once again escaped Cao Song's urging marriage.

This time, being contradicted by his son, Cao Song was no longer angry, and his brows and eyes were full of smugness. He emphasized to Cao Man again: "It's my sister, your mother must be pregnant with a girl, the little fairy who saved me back then!"

Cao Song wanted a daughter, so he was going crazy thinking about it. At night, he dreamed that Mrs. Zou gave birth to a daughter for him. Now that the dream has come true, he can grin for a long time!

Cao Man was speechless, he couldn't tell his father that the "little fairy" in his mouth was pretended by himself, thinking about the embarrassment of being stuffed with a talisman when he was a child, Cao Man was determined not to tell his secret to his father father.In this world, it is enough for Liu Hong to know that he can dress up as a woman, but let the others forget it!

Liu Hong would not laugh at him, nor would he stuff him with talisman paper like his own father did.

Just as he was talking, Cao Song kept a secret from Cao: "This time, you must come home with me. Your husband, Li Ying, is ill, almost to the point of blindness. As his disciple, you are almost his half. A son, the master is seriously ill, he should be filial, even if he doesn't stay by his side to serve the sick, at least I should go and see him!"

Cao Song just heard the news of Li Ying's illness, so he didn't go to visit Li Ying in person, because he waited for his son to return, and the father and son went to visit him together.

Cao Man was shocked and said: "Mr. Li is sick?! I saw him well a while ago, is he sick enough to go home to recuperate now?"

"More than that, I heard that Lingling is sick and dying soon," Cao Song sighed.

Cao Mo valued friendship. Li Ying once taught him knowledge one-on-one and hand in hand. People said that he was a teacher for one day and a father for life. In Cao Man's mind, although Li Ying was not as important as Cao Song, his status was almost as important as It can be regarded as half a family.

This time, upon hearing that Li Ying was seriously ill, he hurried home and asked Cao Song, "Father! Do you have some better medicinal materials at home? Lend me some and let me send them to your husband. Maybe it will save your life?"

Cao Man made up his mind, when he finds Li Ying, he will use the system perspective to check his condition immediately. If he is seriously ill, he must try whether Bingxinfang's recovery dance has any effect on the disease!

Cao Song hurriedly said: "Yes! There is Ganoderma lucidum, a high-quality variety, and the servants respect it."

He asked the housekeeper to take out the Ganoderma lucidum from the warehouse, cut some off and gave it to Cao Meng, and said with great pain: "This is a good thing. There is only one tree in the palace, and the other tree is in our house. You must save it." use."

Cao Mo took those Ganoderma lucidum casually, without giving Cao Song a chance to react, he hurried to Li Ying's house.

Cao Song called from behind: "Hey! Wait for me, let's go visit Li Ying together!"

"I can't wait!" Cao Man was in a hurry, afraid that his father would catch up, and when the time came, his father would be watching from the side, how could he dance for Mr. Li?

He hurried to the stable, picked out the most pleasing and strong horse, turned over and rode on it.

The familiar equestrian skills, heroic and gallant movements, and the heroic appearance of the young man stunned the onlookers.

Cao Song couldn't catch up with Cao Meng, and stared blankly at him going away, complaining helplessly: "This child, what's the hurry, even if he is seriously ill, he won't die for a while, and there is an imperial doctor sent by His Majesty to watch over him!"

There are pawns and traders on the streets of Luoyang City. Ordinary people cannot drive horses in the busy city. Cao Man learned this in the course of Taixue, and he chose to walk on remote paths with few people, and waited for him to bypass the back door of Li Ying's house. Nearby, there is a faint feeling that something is wrong.

He stopped the horse, put his hand on the saber at his waist, and looked around vigilantly.He felt that there were constant sights cast on him, and it wasn't just one person. After careful observation, there were many officers and soldiers patrolling the streets. There were also people disguised as setting up stalls around Li Ying's mansion, buying and selling things perfunctorily. , but in fact, his eyes have been fixed on the high walls and gates of the Li Mansion.

Cao Man sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly walked into the alley, found the target, knocked down the few people who were staring at the outer wall of the back door of Li Ying's house, and quietly turned over the wall outside Li Ying's house and entered the mansion.

He was not familiar with Li Ying's house, and he didn't know where Li Ying was, so he grabbed a maid and asked where Li Shaofu was.

The maid was pointed at by Cao Meng with her sword, trembling, and hurriedly pointed out the direction for him, she said in a trembling voice: "I, I am the person in the palace, who was sent by Marquis Cao to 'take care' of Shaofu Li. Don't hurt yourself!"

The maid's eyes drifted to Cao Man's sword. The word Cao was engraved on the sword. It was the original surname of the Cao family. There are not many high-ranking officials with the surname Cao in Luoyang City. Cao Jie and Cao Song are the only two. They are recognized partnerships.

Cao Man's saber is extraordinary at first glance, and it is no wonder that the maid regards Cao Man as "one of my own" sent by the palace.

Hearing what the maid said, Cao Man frowned fiercely: Uncle sent someone to Mr. Li's house to monitor him?

On the surface, he ordered with a cold face: "Take me to see Li Shaofu."

The maid responded in a low voice, and hurriedly did so, bringing Cao Man to Li Ying's bedroom.

Cao Mo knocked the maid unconscious, opened the door and walked into Li Ying's room. When he saw the withered Li Ying on the sick bed, the flames of rage rose in his heart!

Cao Jie wants to kill Mr. Li!

Cao Mo rushed forward to check Li Ying's situation, and called Li Ying: "Sir, sir?! Are you still awake?"

Li Ying on the sickbed was silent, as if he had turned into a cold corpse. Cao Man carefully observed his weak and undulating chest, groped for his cold wrist, and looked carefully at the blood bar, only [-]% was left. Bright red blinding lights flicker, and there is a strange dark mark on it!

Cao Mo hurriedly asked the system: "What kind of mark is that? It looks particularly ominous."

System [poison mark, chronic fatal poisoning, continuous blood loss, can cause death in a short period of time. ]

"What poison, can I undo it?" Cao Mo asked eagerly.

[The player has not completed Bing Xin's mental method, so he cannot perform the dance of detoxification. ]

Cao Man was almost dying of anxiety, he hurriedly danced a recovery dance for Li Ying, trying his best to fill up his blood.

Now 17-year-old Cao Meng has a strong internal energy, like a trickle, which is not comparable to his childhood, and he is even more handy in performing the recovery fan dance.

Li Ying's condition was relieved at a speed visible to the naked eye. His pale and black skin gradually turned red, his dry and chapped lips healed completely, and even his hair like withered grass returned to black.

He was immersed in a nightmare, breathing heavily, Cao Mo quickly filled up Li Ying's blood energy, hurriedly pressed a button to change his clothes, and woke up Li Ying: "Sir! Wake up, your student Cao Geely came to see you!"

Li Ying frowned slightly, struggled with his eyes for a moment, and finally opened them. When he saw the radiant young man in front of him, he felt like a world away.

Li Ying felt that he had strength again, and the severe pain in the joints all over his body disappeared. He moved his hands and feet, got up, and when he moved a little, he spit out black blood, and his blood energy immediately decreased by five ten.

Cao Meng's heart trembled, and he stopped Li Ying from making violent movements: "Sir, don't get excited, take your time, now that you are poisoned, you must take it easy!"

Li Ying coughed violently twice, covered his mouth with his sleeve, looked down and saw that his mouth was full of bruises and dark red blood, he said fiercely: "Cao Jie, you really want to kill me!"

Cao Man's expression froze, and he asked Li Ying seriously: "What happened? Cao Jie, as the eunuch next to His Majesty, should know that you were once His Majesty's mentor. You were a primary school teacher in Taixue, and Cao Jie should There is no conflict!"

Li Ying gave a wry smile, beckoned Cao Meng to sit down, and said with a deep voice: "The second 'party ban' has begun. Cao Jie, Wang Fu and other eunuchs took power, forcing and killing courtiers, causing a bloody storm all over the city. They support their cronies, eliminate dissidents, and even buy and sell official positions to gain benefits."

Cao Man exclaimed: "How could it be?! Then what about Your Majesty! Won't Your Majesty stop it?"

"It's impossible for Your Majesty not to know about this." This is exactly where Li Ying felt sad: "I don't want to believe that these are all caused by His Majesty's acquiescence, but in fact, if there is no right granted by Your Majesty, Cao Jie and Wang Fu would How dare you come here?"

Li Ying and Cao Man talked a lot, explaining to him the turbulent undercurrents in recent years. It turned out that as early as Cao Man's first year of enrolling in the Taixue, the shadow of the party had already appeared!

"All the officials who opposed His Majesty's succession were demoted, no matter whether they were talented or not. The courtiers who opposed Dong Guiren's promotion to Empress Dowager also lost their lives."

From these clues, Li Ying realized Liu Hong's narrow-mindedness. He couldn't believe that the restrained and humble child back then would turn into what he is now.

Li Ying closed his eyes and said to Cao: "Your Majesty supports Cao Jie and other eunuchs to suppress the forces left by General Dou Wu. This is justifiable. I can understand why he would do this, but he should never have done so." No, you shouldn’t target the literati, and then set off the ‘party ban’! A few years ago, under the party ban, the whole world became a monopoly of eunuchs and their followers. There are eunuchs’ minions everywhere, persecuting the people, buying and selling fertile land , buy mansions, take bribes, do everything possible, but anyone who is related to the eunuchs will be promoted. Good people are forced to become bandits, and the relatives and friends of the eunuchs take advantage of the situation to kill the people. In Yurou Township, Luoyang City is more It has become a battlefield between eunuchs and courtiers, and the chaos of the past has been staged again."

Cao Mo couldn't believe it: "Impossible, His Majesty would not do this, he was also a person who experienced party imprisonment! He was also a student and a member of the literati. Before becoming the emperor, he could be a He is a capable minister who governs the world and has been studying hard!"

Later, when Liu Hong became emperor, Cao Man took the same path as Liu Hong, to learn to be a capable minister, to fulfill Liu Hong's wish before becoming an emperor, and to wait for success in his studies and return when he grows up. Liu Hong worked together to manage the rivers and mountains.

He didn't expect that everything would be messed up before he graduated from university.

Li Ying said sadly: "Your Majesty may have been deceived and deceived by those eunuchs. Now Cao Jie holds His Majesty in his hand, and Wang Fu holds the Queen Mother in his hand. The most noble mother and son in the whole world are in the hands of the eunuchs. The courtiers can't help it." I resisted, and I wanted to go to see His Majesty, but was run over from the palace gate and returned home, I can even conclude that His Majesty didn't even know that I had gone to him!"

After hearing this, Cao couldn't sit still. He yelled, "I'll go find him! Mister can't find him, but I can find him!"

Li Ying hurriedly stopped him: "Wait! Are you going to the palace directly like this? Why don't you discuss the countermeasures with your father? Cao Jie is jealous, your father is a cooperative relationship with him, there should be a way to persuade him He restrain himself, as long as he can take this opportunity to find His Majesty."

Cao Mo said to Li Ying: "Don't worry, sir, I have a way to find His Majesty, and I don't need to discuss with my father."

Li Ying was in a hurry, and hurriedly grabbed Cao Meng: "What can you do? Cao Jie even killed me, let alone you, a child who has not yet grown up? If you get killed because of this, you What do you want your father to do? Do you think you are all surnamed Cao, and you belong to the same family? Cao Jie is a lonely eunuch with no heart. In his eyes, there are only rights and wealth, and there are people who can use them! You Don't think that he usually regards you as a nephew, and don't ignore his ruthlessness just because he respects your grandfather! Besides, if you go to the palace like this, how many pairs of eyes in the world will stare at you, and the world will pay for it. You Cao surnames are 'fighting in the nest' and clapped your hands."

Cao Man shook his head. Seeing that Li Ying's blood volume dropped again, he hurriedly comforted Li Ying: "I will disguise myself to prevent others from recognizing me. The students go back as soon as they go. My husband's poisoning endangers his life. The guard at home Neither doctors nor servants can be trusted, sir, please take care of yourself, pretend to return the sick, and wait for my news!"

Cao Mo communicated with Li Ying for a while, and immediately went to the palace after leaving Li's mansion.

When he arrived at the Chengde Hall, he didn't see Cao Jie's shadow, but the other servants were waiting beside Liu Hong.

Cao Man knocked twice on the roof window. Liu Hong, who was reading the memorial in the hall, was stunned. He raised his head, showing a look of surprise. He hurriedly retreated to the left and right, and ordered everyone to go outside to guard.

Cao Man quietly landed in the hall, Liu Hong looked straight ahead, he held his breath, his eyes were full of being amazed by the beauty of his little friend Sheng Shi.

"It's unbelievable. How on earth did you make yourself look like this? This makeup is simply amazing!" Liu Hong couldn't bear to look straight at him and glanced away, not to look at Cao Man. He covered his eyes, refusing to be caught by the beauty Cao Man. The beauty exalts aesthetics.

"After seeing you like this, how can I favor my concubine in the future? None of my concubines are as beautiful as you," Liu Hong said with a headache, "Ah man, can't you make your makeup look ugly?"

Cao Mo was not in the mood to be with Liu Hong for a long time today, he said to Liu Hong with a gloomy face, "I heard that you acquiesced to Cao Jie and the others killing the courtiers, and now there are arrests of 'partisans' outside I'm here to ask you what you think."

Liu Hong's expression changed drastically. He sank his face and said displeasedly, "Who told you this, Cao Jie?"

"How could it be him?" Cao Man raised his voice: "Cao Jie wished to keep both of us in the bottom of the valley so that he could do what he wanted to do. It's not that you don't know who he is, I told you before Be wary of him, why don't you listen? Even give him the same rights as the eunuchs of the Five Marquises back then, let him use his power in the court, act recklessly, even kill courtiers, and exclude dissidents!"

"No," Liu Hong shook his head and denied, he said coldly: "The person Cao Jie wants to kill is all named by me, he is doing things for me, I know what I'm doing, and I won't be fooled by eunuchs, All the powers of the eunuchs come from me, and I have mastered their power of life and death, and they can only have their current power and status by relying on me."

"But my master was almost killed by Cao Jie!" Cao Man yelled at Liu Hong: "This is what you said, you won't be deceived by eunuchs? Do you think Cao Jie is a good man? Do you think he is really like the man on the surface? Is that harmless?"

Liu Hong was utterly chilled by the spray, and he said displeasedly: "Enough! Cao Jie is your uncle!"

Cao Meng said in disbelief: "He is a fake name, so why should I recognize him? He calls me his good nephew. Do you think he really regards me as his nephew?"

Cao Man shook Liu Hong severely: "Wake up, Cao Jie's words cannot be trusted!"

With a gloomy face, Liu Hong grabbed Cao Man's wrist, turned his head with dark eyes, and said sharply: "I am in a rough situation as an emperor, and you are free and easy in Taixue. I will block everything for you, and you How can I understand my difficulties? In the court, there are countless famous people who are famous outside. Those people never care who is sitting on the dragon chair, they only care about their own interests! I really don’t know about Mr. Li. I will give you an explanation. But the 'partisans' must be arrested! I must kill all those who oppose me as emperor, otherwise, in time, I don't know how many people will rebel!"

"But you can't rely on eunuchs to govern. They are not trustworthy. The real power should be above the court officials. Otherwise, who will rule the world and who will guard the border? Are the eunuchs coming?" For a while, he disagreed with Liu Hong's idea, and he was determined to pass on the ideas that Cao Teng had instilled in him to Liu Hong.

"I'm already promoting courtiers. Qiao Xuan was promoted to Sikong, and Duan Ying was promoted to Taiwei. The two of them occupy the second place of the three princes. Besides, there is Jiuqing. Your father is firmly in the position of chief minister. That's not enough. Is it? When you graduate from the Imperial College, I will have more people to appoint. You agreed to assist me in governing the country, and Duan Ying praised you for having the qualifications to be a general!" Liu Hong firmly believed I am right.

"But you dismissed and killed more courtiers!" Cao said incredulously, "You can't be nepotism, you should promote talented people, not people with good relationships!"

Unable to suppress the evil fire in Liu Hong's heart, he said furiously, "Nepotism? If those rebellious people have the real power, who will support me in the future! Do you think the emperor is easy to do? What I do is the interests of all parties. Make the most appropriate decision, how can you, a student who is studying comfortably in Taixue, understand my situation?!"

The bad mood of not being recognized by his friends made Liu Hong feel bad all day. He only felt that there was a cloud of evil burning in his heart, and he wanted to destroy something to vent his anger. Even what he said hurt others Very quickly, he turned his head and stared, his eyes gloomy and bloodthirsty in the rainstorm.

Cao Man was stunned for a moment, a chill rose from the soles of his feet and went straight to his forehead. He deeply realized that his little friend was different.

Liu Hong is no longer the Liu Hong he was back then.

After arguing like this, Liu Hong inadvertently turned his gaze away, and met Cao Man, the two of them quarreled red-faced and got very close.

Cao Man was stunned, and Liu Hong himself was also stunned. The atmosphere of the two quarreling teenagers suddenly froze, and they looked at each other, always feeling weird.

Especially because Liu Hong grabbed Cao Man's wrist, and the two of them stuck together, with the pair of silicone fake breasts lying between them, blatantly declaring his own sense of existence.

Cao Man, who is close at hand, has exquisite eyebrows, lovely facial features, is as delicate as a girl, fair and beautiful, even more beautiful than all the beauties in his harem!
