"You can't underestimate Liu Bei. Although he is weaker, if he is a tiger, he will become a great enemy in the future. If he can be captured, it is the best, otherwise he must cut off his wings as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to get rid of it. "A Sheng couldn't help reminding, but after finishing speaking, he felt that it was unnecessary and closed his mouth.

Does he still need to point fingers, presumably everything she thinks has already been fully anticipated in his heart.

But Cao Cao didn't show disapproval, instead he nodded seriously, "Xuande is an outstanding person in the world, I know his ambition very well, so I never underestimated him. But..."

He paused, then showed an inexplicable smile, and looked at A Sheng without saying a word.

She understood what he meant, and he hesitated to speak, and said: "I know you are worried about Yuan Shao and Liu Biao, if they wait for the opportunity to sneak attack, it will inevitably lead to the disaster of Yanzhou in the past. What's more, there is Zhang who is entrenched in Wancheng Xiu is also eyeing you, and you also have to be scruples, and now it can be said that you are under the enemy."

"So, Gu decided to stop sending troops to Xuzhou for the time being, and wait and see what happens. After all, they will fight for their own interests. Gu is happy to play the role of watching the show, madam, what do you think?" He laughed jokingly, holding his hand Brace your head, eyes narrowed slyly like a fox.

Only then did Ah Sheng realize that he had been tricked, and struggling to get up, he couldn't help shouting: "Okay, Cao Aman, you didn't even think about sending troops to Liu Bei from the beginning, did you? You are just lying to me, and I am so serious gone."

But he laughed heartily and didn't take her dissatisfaction into consideration at all, but his voice suddenly lowered ambiguously: "I was just trying to lie to you about the truth, but you didn't take sides with your husband at all, you are so honest and cute , and I’m not afraid that I’ll be angry.”

While saying that he raised his hand and turned to blow out the candle, Ah Sheng took advantage of his inattention, took this opportunity to quickly push away his arm, jumped up, picked up the lampstand and hurried away.

"Sikong handles official business slowly, so I won't accompany you." She made a provocative grimace at Cao Cao, laughed and turned around immediately, no matter what the expressions of the people behind her would be, she ran out the door sullenly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his front foot stepped into the veranda, he bumped into someone head-on with a "bang", and the candle in his hand almost tipped over.

Before she could recover, she was suddenly called out: "Sister!" Immediately, her sleeves were pulled.

She raised her head in surprise, and was facing Xiao Bing, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

He was thinner than before, but his temple hair was white at a young age, his deep-set eye sockets lined his cheekbones higher, and the veins outside his bones could almost be seen.

After seeing Ah Sheng clearly, Xiao Bing opened the corners of his mouth to show a smile, let go of his hands and put them into his arms, and bowed deeply: "Sister."

Then he said: "Brother came this time to report a private matter to Sikong and ask for Sikong's permission."

"Is it so serious about a private matter?" She also tried her best to smile back to make the atmosphere less dull, but the guilt in her heart was still unavoidable.

It has always been like a thorn between the two, preventing them from returning to the close sibling relationship of the past, mutual tacit understanding but inability to break it.

She really wanted to save Ji Tao, but she didn't know how to let him know that she was powerless.So she could only avoid it as much as possible, and she didn't even dare to see her younger brother again, for fear of being blamed and disappointed.

Unexpectedly, it seemed that it was all her own fault.

Being a good person is often the first to suffer, even though she doesn't think she is a really good person.

As soon as her joking words fell, Xiao Bing shook his head, and the wisteria on the wooden frame beside the veranda was blown up by the wind, just brushing against his face.

"It's nothing, it's just that Sikong must know, it's not a big deal."

Seeing his younger brother's persistence, Ah Sheng was worried that he would go to see Cao Cao alone, so he walked beside him with a lampstand, and went back to the study with him.

At this moment, another candle was lit in the room, and there was a faint sound of bamboo slips being flipped. Hearing their footsteps approaching, Cao Cao slowly raised his head, raised his eyebrows and looked at her, with a half-smile: "Madam so quickly Are you back? Guzheng is following orders to handle official duties, is Madam satisfied?"

A Sheng rolled his eyes, Xiao Bing's face turned red immediately, coughed unnaturally, then knelt respectfully, cupped his hands and said: "Sikong, I have a humble job and I need to see you, please allow me."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Cao Cao seemed to be interested, put down the letter he was flipping through, and rubbed his chin.

Xiao Bing bowed on the ground again, his voice was calm and loud, and he could hear it very clearly in the cold evening wind: "I have an unfeeling request. I have no parents in this world. Now there is only Mrs. Bian, the elder sister. , so you and your sister have to be the masters of such a lifelong event. To be honest, Beizhi privately made a lifelong appointment with a girl. Although it is not in line with the etiquette, Beizhi is bold here, and I implore Sikong to allow Beizhi to marry her."

A Sheng was taken aback when he heard that.

Immediately subconsciously asked: "Whose girl?"

Xiao Bing bowed and replied politely: "It's a woman from the Wang family who lives in the street facing my younger brother. Her father is a businessman and is very satisfied with my younger brother. Miss Wang is intelligent and virtuous. My younger brother fell in love with her at first sight. After a long time, I will be more and more happy with her." It's because my heart is happy with her, I will never forget it, and I hope Sikong and my sister can make it happen."

Cao Cao suddenly laughed, got up and walked to Xiao Bing's side, and patted his shoulder lightly.

"This is nature. This is the long-term love between human beings. Since it is such a beautiful thing for two people to be happy, how can I disagree? Not only that, but I also have gifts to give."

"Gu is busy with business, so I'm afraid I don't have time to go to the evening ceremony. I give this to you now, as a small gesture of Gu's congratulations on your marriage." He picked up an exquisite sandalwood box from the table behind him , signaling Xiao Bing to accept it.

Xiao Bing took it steadily, and glanced at Cao Cao questioningly.The latter nodded slightly, and he unscrewed the lock with confidence, and opened the box.

Inside is the official seal of a golden tortoise button.

I saw that the carving is elegant and majestic, exuding the exquisite craftsmanship that is unique to the imperial palace. The bottom is engraved with four beautiful and fair seal characters, "Duxianghouyin".

There is also a scroll of jade silk folded beside it, which is clearly a handbook from the imperial palace.

He couldn't help but raised his head in surprise, "Huh", and opened his eyes wide: "Sikong, this is..."

Two seconds later, he immediately reacted, leaned over in panic, put his left hand on the back of his right hand and bowed his head again, his voice was trembling: "Thank you, Sikong, for your reward!"

Cao Cao actually expressed Xiao Bing's favor as a Marquis to the court.

A Sheng's eyes were bigger than Xiao Bing's, and he stared at Cao Cao in disbelief, but he couldn't understand what he was thinking at all.

Is he really trying to reward Xiao Bing for his achievements, or is he trying to win over and appease him?

Ah Sheng nervously guessed in his heart that he might not know how much Xiao Bing would hate him for that incident.That's why he didn't avoid closeness, and used the reward from the Marquis of Duxiang to calm the flames in Xiao Bing's heart.

He always does things with calculations and plans, which makes her heart always have a gap for ventilation, and from time to time, cold wind will be drawn in, reminding her with the gap that she is not trusted.

Perhaps this is the real thorn in the throat.

**

Xiao Bing's wedding banquet was held in a hurry, almost in a hurry, he hastily picked an auspicious day and was about to marry his bride.

A Sheng purposely got up early in the morning, and after five o'clock, he finished washing his hands and then took a carriage to Bian's house in the corner of the city.

The door plaque and all places in sight were covered with red flowers with happy characters. Zhang Ma smiled happily and excitedly arranged everything for Xiao Bing. Helping together, there is a festive atmosphere up and down.

Xiao Bing was standing in front of the bronze mirror in a smoked red gown. Mama Zhang picked up the belt and was about to fasten it on him, but she was stopped by A Sheng: "Let me do it. Mama Zhang is going to rest for a while and get busy with work." You must be tired after so long.”

Mama Zhang wiped off her sweat, and said with a quick smile: "Madam is so polite, this old servant should serve the young master, and besides such a big happy event, it is too late for this old servant to be happy."

"It's okay." A Sheng took the big belt from Mama Zhang, slowly squatted down, and carefully passed the exquisitely embroidered mandarin duck brocade belt through the small buckles, tied it carefully, and put it on. Straightforwardly tied in front of his body.

After tying it up, she straightened her waist, and couldn't help looking up and down carefully. Xiao Bing in front of her was wearing a suspendered feather crown. Her body was too thin to support the gorgeous robe, and her exposed neck was covered with bruises and scars.

After noticing her gaze, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if to be relieved.

Ah Sheng couldn't bear to look any longer, turned his eyes back, and couldn't help touching his shoulder and sighing: "After you get the bride, you must treat her well, and you live a good life. You have to remember, since you have a family, you have to take on the responsibility." This responsibility of being a husband and a father, don’t act casually. In the past, my sister was sorry for you, but in the future, if you need my sister’s help, I will try my best to solve it for you. After all, we have always been the closest in the world Brother and sister, not to mention father asked me to take good care of you before he died, we need to share our troubles and blessings."

Over his head, he said "um", as if he had heard it.

It was completely different from the silence in the room, but there was a lot of noise outside, "The bridegroom, why don't you go to welcome the bride?!"

There was laughter one after another, and the neighbors crowded into the mansion to join in the fun, shouting and urging Xiao Bing to hurry to meet the bride.

"Go quickly." A Sheng smiled and waved at him, and he bowed heavily to her, but didn't say another word.

Slowly pushing open the door, Xiao Bing stepped onto the big horse to greet his relatives, shouted "drive" under the cheers and crowds of the crowd, and walked away slowly under the light of the sun.

After half an hour, the bride's sedan chair was carried in.

This Miss Wang's face was half-hidden by a bead curtain and a painting fan, so she couldn't see what her face looked like, but she vaguely showed some clear eyebrows, her steps were quiet, and the phoenix crown on her head made crisp tinkling sounds, and her behavior was all Xiaojiabiyu's Elegant.

The guests from outside the mansion were notified one after another. They didn't have any relatives at first, so most of them were Xiao Bing's colleagues and staff members, as well as friends who had some contacts on weekdays.

"Xun You, the prefect of Runan, gave his son Chen Yujue a pair!"

"Military Master sacrifices wine to Guo Jia, and presents two pairs of white biscuits!"

In the din of the room, following the sudden announcement from the bridesmaid, everyone immediately fell silent, and looked at the two shining men at the door in unison.

Both of them are personable, shining youth like stepping on the sun, and their gestures are casual and unrestrained, which immediately attracted the attention of the audience.Everyone couldn't help but stare at them intently.

Immediately after recovering, they all hurriedly bowed and saluted the two respectfully in unison.

A Sheng quickly went up to meet him and bowed his knees to salute, and at the same time greeted Hongxue happily behind Xun You.

"Actually...you don't need to give gifts." She wanted to decline shyly, "It's already an honor for you to come, so how dare you teach you how to spend money."

Guo Jia didn't show any politeness to her, and directly pointed to the side with his eyes, and the book boy immediately brought the gift into the door and placed it, without giving her the slightest chance to refuse.

At this time, Hongxue let out an "ah", looked at the bride and the whole house, and held Asheng's hand:

"It's such a pity that the little uncle didn't come. I asked Gongda to invite him a few days ago, but the little uncle only said that he was too busy to go out, so he asked us to bring the gift."

After finishing speaking, the maid standing beside her hurriedly lifted up the two jars of wine in her hands, and the black lacquered jars were tightly sealed.

"What wine is this?"

"Plum wine made by Ling Jun himself." Hongxue replied with a smile, and added, "Unexpectedly, Ling Jun can also make wine. It is very rare for him to make wine. It has been so long, and I haven't seen him make it a few times. "

A Sheng raised his eyelids slightly, and suddenly stared at Hongxue closely, but his breathing suddenly became rapid.

It turned out to be plum wine.
