In Chang'an City, Cao Cao got the news when Yuan Huan and the others left Yecheng, thinking about how they would arrive in Chang'an in a few days, and how to prepare early to receive them.

Yuan Huan strictly forbade people to tell Cao Cao why they came to Chang'an, so Cao Cao only knew that they were coming to Chang'an, but the specific reason was not clear, only thinking that Yuan Huan might have been bored in Yecheng for too long and wanted to go out for a walk before coming to Chang'an .

The carriage was moving slowly, and it took more time to find refugees on the road to understand the situation. Cao Mengde subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but thinking about their elder brother's body, he felt that walking slowly was normal.

My brother is weak, the official roads in Guanzhong have been in disrepair for a long time, the weather is dry, cracked, rainy and muddy, and it is incomparable with the official roads around Yecheng. I can’t feel the difference when riding a horse on it, but sitting in a carriage feels like a heaven and an earth.

Slow down is good, slow down is not guilty.

Cao Mengde sent people out of the city every day to see where the convoy had gone. When the time came, he went out of the city to greet him. A few boys from his family came to Guanzhong together. He hadn't seen those boys since the new year, and said he didn't want it to be a fake.

In the carriage, Cao Pi looked at his father with a happy face, and couldn't help but pull Cao Zhi next to him to his hand and pinch him. Would he talk to his father later?To what extent do you have to speak?Can a son really not remind at all?

Master Situ said that no one should tell his father, others can follow orders not to tell, would he be a little sorry for his father if he really didn't say anything?

Alas, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult since ancient times. He has already felt the difficulty of making choices before he became an official. Wouldn't it be more difficult to become an official in the future?

I'm dying, what should I do?

Cao Zhi honestly used his second brother as a decompression tool, and he didn't say anything when he was pinched and hurt. Cao Xiaozhi, who had nothing to do and made trouble for his brother on weekdays, was a different person. Sun Quan sat beside him with his face in his hands, Still holding the helpless Xun Xiaoyun, feeling that Cao Pi's present is his future.

The two looked at each other, sighed at the same time, changed their positions and continued to worry.

From Yecheng to Chang'an, they spent almost a month on the road, most of which were spent in the counties of Hanoi and Hongnong. After Yuan Huan met Cao Cao, he didn't say anything, but asked Cao Pi to tell his father that they were together. What I saw and heard on the road, the journey is too tiring, how to deal with it will be discussed after he rests.

The city of Chang'an was guarded by heavy soldiers, and there would be no chaos in the place where Cao Cao himself sat in town. Except that the city looked a bit dilapidated, it still looked a little like the grandeur of Chang'an in the prosperous age.

Cao Pi looked at his ignorant father with a complicated expression, and quickly walked a few steps to catch up with Yuan Situ, who held the power of life and death, "Can you really say it? Can you say anything?"

Yuan Huan chuckled, "Anything is fine. If you are afraid, you can ask General Dian or General Lu to accompany you. Don't worry, your father can't beat them."

Cao Cao: ? ? ?

what's the situation?

Why do I suddenly have an ominous premonition?

After Yuan Huan handed over the work to Cao Pi, he called the other little guys to follow him. They saw so many scary scenes along the way, and the little guys had to give psychological counseling, otherwise it would be his fault if they frightened them into problems.

Yuan Jing puffed his face, gestured to his friends quietly, and pushed his father into the house to wash and rest, "Father rest assured, we are not so timid, I will talk to them one by one later, Don't bother Father to take care of it yourself."

They are all people who want to do big things in the future, so it's okay to be scared by such a small thing?

These few days, they are afraid to make a fuss on the road because they are afraid of quarreling with Dad. In fact, they have thought of [-] ideas in private to help Dad share his worries. Unfortunately, they are too young to put them into action. If they are seven or eight years older , they can go all the way and kill all the way, and kill those corrupt officials who oppress the people.

The gentlemen said it well, heavy codes are used in troubled times, do you really think they are living saints who are merciful and merciless after a few waves?

Confucius once said how to repay grievances with virtue, how to repay virtue, good officials who serve the country and the people are busy without touching the ground, but the silverfish in those countries eat, drink and enjoy themselves. Where in the world can there be such a good thing.

Be careful if you have your life to make money but not to spend your life!

Young Master Yuan Jing showed a ferocious expression, and when his father saw it, he immediately returned to his original state, blinking his big eyes, being obedient and innocent, "Daddy, daddy, go to rest, take a good rest now, and then you won't have to take so many medicines. Guo Jiyi’s recent medicines are really hard to drink.”

Yuan Huan paused, shaking his fingers subconsciously, "Then Jing'er also remember to rest early, we still have a lot of things to do in a few days, even you can't be idle."

He was too angry before, so angry that he lost his wits and forgot Guo Jiyi's normal decoction level. Live and suffer.

After all, it's all the fault of those bullshit bullshit.

The original boss narrowed his eyes, with a little coldness in his eyes, gentle and gentle let the little ones move freely, and then washed and rested under the service of the maid.

Yuan Jing obediently watched her father enter the house, and immediately turned around as soon as the door closed, "Brother Yi, Brother Quan, take the younger brothers, and let's go to the courtyard next door."

Even if they can't help, they can't lose their momentum. Even Cao Xiaozhi and Xun Xiaoyun know how to beat people with their fists. They are older brothers who can't lose. Where did they say it last time?

Hongnong's Diannong Xiaowei and Diannong Duwei, yes, those guys who directly fought with the prefect in order to rob people. Although the Hongnong prefect has lost his official position and became the former Hongnong prefect, he can make those typical The farm officer beat him up and begged for mercy, and they admitted that he was a good man.

Lost official is also a hero!

The little guys are fierce and united with the enemy, but Cao Pi is nervous besides being nervous. Their family's education method is different from that of the Sun family next door. The Sun family brothers can make their father fly into a rage and then be chased all over the yard. They Family is not good, even the most powerful and reliable eldest brother has to restrain his edge and be a good son in front of their father.

He wanted to tell his father that the news was true, but it didn't mean he wanted to face his father's anger directly. His father didn't think anything was wrong now, and he knew with his feet that he must have been kept in the dark before.

If you don't know the truth, you can still deceive yourself and others, but if you know the truth, you can't be angry.

Cao Pi was very self-aware, knowing that he would not be able to handle the situation later, with Lu Bu on the left and Dian Wei on the right, and two generals guarding him before he dared to speak.

Cao Cao: ? ? ?

Just now, he thought that his elder brother was just looking for a chance for the father and son to bond. When Cao Pi's eyes flickered and he flinched and hid, and he still insisted on holding Lu Bu and Dian Wei back, he realized that things might be completely different from what he had imagined. different.

Especially Lu Fengxian, why is this look so wrong?

Cao Cao was thinking a lot, and his face was somber that he wanted to bring them into the house to talk. Cao Pi quickly waved his hands to say no, the yard is very good, and it will be easier to escape later. Sitting in the house and talking is hard to guarantee that they will not bump into each other when they escape. The more chaotic it is, the easier it is to bump into each other, and life is more important, he chose to stand up and say.

"Father, we started from Yecheng, passed through Hanoi County, Hongnong County, and Hedong County all the way, passed through Hangu Pass, passed through Zuo Fengyi, and then came to Chang'an City." Cao Pi did not dare to pull Lu Bu's sleeve, Hiding behind the big man Dian Wei, he started very tactfully.

Cao Cao raised his brows, "I told you to talk about what you learned on the road, but I didn't ask you to memorize the map."

Cao Pi was so frightened that he quickly stood up straight, closed his eyes and copied all the words of the refugees on the road. After he finished speaking, he didn't dare to see his father's reaction, so he left Lu Bu Dianwei and ran away.

General Lu and General Dian will definitely not be beaten. He will definitely be beaten. If he doesn’t run now, he will only see him lying on the bed tomorrow. He still wants to see how Master Situ will deal with those corrupt officials. Rehabilitate at home.

Cao Cao's face was as dark as water, he watched Cao Pi running far without stopping, pressed his temples hard to suppress the headache, and even had the illusion that the brat was amusing him.

It has been two or three years since Guanzhong started farming. He has visited almost every county in person. The pianong officials and prefects in each county are all selected by him. How could it be possible to forcefully arrest people as coolies? matter?

His son, he understands that it is impossible for Cao Pi to joke about this kind of thing, no matter how outrageous it is, it is impossible for it to be fake, so the problem is, if it is a county or a county secretly oppressing the people, he may be concealed from it. There are so many counties in Guanzhong This happens all the time, why is there no news from him at all?

Lu Bu glanced at the brat who was running away without a trace, clicked his tongue, patted Cao Mengde on the shoulder, and then turned away. He didn't take care of these things on weekdays, except for training and even military affairs. He wouldn't say anything if there was a mistake in the business. No matter who did the business, it was more reliable than him.

Self-knowledge is a good thing. After years of fighting, General Lu finally got a little closer to a good thing, but it is one thing to have self-knowledge, but another thing to have a bad temper.

When they just left Yecheng, the lord only needed one bowl of medicine a day, but after arriving in Guanzhong, it became necessary to eat one bowl three times a day. If it wasn't for Cao Mengde's negligence, their lord would not have suffered so much.

It's nothing to have a headache now, he will still have a headache in a few days.

Along the way, General Lu was thinking about how to lead his troops to raid his family and punish the nine clans, but he was secretly cursing Cao Mengde in his heart. When he arrived in Chang'an City, seeing Cao Cao's gloomy face, he felt that this guy would definitely be punished in a few days. It's worse.

He, Lu Fengxian, has such a broad mind, how could he be regarded as a villain who has fallen into trouble?

General Lu Da thought and thought, but in the end he didn't say anything, and Dian Wei stayed instead.

Dian Wei is from Chenliuji. Cao Cao recruited soldiers from Chenliu when he started his career. He was under Xiahoudun's command at first, then went to Cao Cao's side, and then went to Yecheng as an errand. Speaking of which, Cao Cao was still his old boss.

What the young master Cao Pi said is not very clear. Without him, who has experienced exile and famine, he can remember clearly. Now that the lord has not spoken, it is better to think about what went wrong.

The summer is extremely hot, and the summer in Guanzhong is like a big furnace. When Yuan Huan and the others left Yecheng, the weather was bearable. When they arrived in Chang'an City just in time for the dog days, it was only a little cool in the morning and evening. Feel hot feet on the ground.

Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi wanted to find a time to say hello to their father yesterday, but before they had time to ask where their father was, they were dragged back by the second brother, and they were repeatedly ordered not to disturb them without authorization, even afraid of them Sneaking past, not relaxing even at night, the three brothers slept in a room and watched in person before giving up.

After waking up, a group of little guys don't need help from others to dress and wash. They tidy themselves up and come out full of energy to gather.

The pancakes they eat when they are on the road are delicious, but if they eat too much, they will get greasy. There are not many types of food that are convenient to carry. They are on the road and not going out for fun. Naturally, it is not easy to insist on how good the pancakes are. Finally, I have the opportunity to eat normal pancakes. The meals, one by one holding a bowl of porridge, are delicious and sweet.

Yuan Huan smiled and watched the little guys bury their heads in eating hard, and felt that he could take them out once in a while. He was not sure how much knowledge would be gained, but the problem of picky eaters would definitely be improved a lot.

If you go out with him, you can still eat something good. When you go out with others, the dry food is really just dry food. If the pancakes are not dry and hard to swallow, it is embarrassing to call them dry food.

Cao Cao stood outside for a long time, came in and saw a group of children paused, gritted his teeth, walked around the little guys, and was about to take the initiative to apologize, Yuan Huan spoke first, "Jing'er, go after eating Find General Dian to play, don't run too far, go back to your room when it's hot outside."

Young Master Yuan Jing nodded quickly, and went out with his well-fed and well-fed friends, so as not to disturb his father's business.

Cao Cao glanced at his sons hiding like quails indiscriminately, and managed to scare the Cao family brothers to quicken their pace and leave quickly, then bowed their heads and waited for the disposal.

Yuan Huan took a sip of the hot tea, and asked people to remove all the food cases, and then said in a warm voice, "Sit down, remember this negligence first, and then we will discuss how to punish after it is resolved."

He thought a lot on the road. It is common for government orders not to be enforced at the local level. Not only since ancient times, but also thousands of years later, this problem has not been solved. The official history compiled by historians is also full of contradictions.

For the local government, all rebellions are the fault of the imperial government. If it is not for the central government’s ineffective governance, the people will not be forced to rebel. If it is more reliable, it will not cause a rebellion.

Whichever side has the truth, they all feel that the fault is the other side's fault. Anyway, the people have rebelled. The big guy only knows that the officials are forcing the people to rebel, and they don't know whether it is the officials of the imperial court or the local officials, so they push it on the other side Exactly.

As for whose fault it is, the common people can be forced to rebel, and neither of them can be clean.

He thought he knew Cao Mengde very well, so he chose to believe that this person was the one who was kept in the dark. Of course, he chose to believe not only because of these, but most importantly, Boss Cao had no reason to do such things secretly.

Yuan Huan bent his knuckles and knocked a few times unhurriedly, "You can save the pleading, let's talk about the business first, before someone sent Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and others to your disposal, you will send them Where did the arrangements go?"

"Hedong Anyi..." Cao Cao remembered these things clearly, and his eyes widened suddenly when he said the place name, "Brother, what you mean is that Dong Cheng still has a backhand in Anyi?"
