Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

The spring of the second year of Chuping came quietly.

It illuminated Sun Jian who suppressed bandits in Changsha, Huangfusong who resisted the Qiang people in Xiliang, and Gongsun Zan who hammered Xianbei in western Liaoning.He also took good care of Liu Bei who flogged the governor and abandoned his official position, Dong Zhuo who was drunk with money in Luoyang, Marquis of Hefei who proclaimed himself emperor in Jizhou, and Yuan Shao who came to Qingzhou to contact.

The first batch of seedlings in Pingyuan County have germinated, and the banks of the river are verdant, which makes people feel happy when they see it.Cao Cao, who ordered the garrison, also allocated an acre of land near the river to himself, and he planted rice that was completely different from others.The adaptability of this paddy field crop has been controversial in the north. Only Cao Cao, who had seen the old man Zhao planting rice when he was a child, had the courage to try it.

I saw him wearing short-sleeved short brown, straw hat on his head, trouser legs rolled up to his thighs, with his feet sunk in the paddy field, planting rice seedlings one deep at a time and one shallow at the other.Two rows of seedlings were planted crookedly, and the old Liaodong peasants beside him couldn't stand it any longer, and wanted to pull the old man away desperately.

"Hahaha." Cao Cao laughed and jumped onto the ridge of the field, the muddy water almost splashed on Yuan Shao's expensive robe, "Wang Weng, at least my seedlings are still alive."

The old farmer Wang Weng almost couldn't control his violent temper: "If it's crooked, it's not easy to harvest in autumn, and the old man will suffer." After he finished speaking, he bent down angrily, planted the seedlings, and Fast and stable, even the distance between the seedlings is measured with a ruler.

Wang Weng felt relieved when a complete and neat row was formed. He looked up and saw that Cao Cao was still standing on the ridge with a straw hat, and couldn't help shouting: "Da Lang, you should go to train your soldiers. Your soldiers are trained well. , so we can farm with peace of mind."

Yuan Shao also wanted to pull Cao Cao away, but looking at Cao Cao's muddy hands and sweat-soaked jacket, he couldn't find a place to strike.

Cao Cao smiled: "At first, you go back to the city first. I will change my clothes and go find you."

So Yuan Shao boarded the gorgeous carriage in which he had come.

Half an hour later, they were drinking tea in the courtyard of the prefect's mansion.Yuan Shao couldn't get used to the green tea that was recently popular among celebrities, so Cao Cao cooked black dates and sour plums for him, and the color and taste of the final product were similar to sour plum soup.

People in this era so-called brewing tea really let their imagination fly.

Yuan Shao's mind was not on this new tea, he put down the cup after taking two sips. "Meng De is a great talent. Within a year of governing the plains, bandits have disappeared and farming has flourished. Are you willing to be just a small plain prefect?"

This question made Cao Cao's heart skip a beat, so he had no choice but to put down the sour plum tea: "Benchu, you and I have been friends for many years. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Yuan Shao looked away half an inch: "Dong Zhuo was furious when he heard that Liu Tan was enthroned in Jizhou, and ordered his general Guo Si to lead an army to attack Jizhou Muwang Fen. I will contact the governors of the Guandong and Zhou Mu, and in Jizhou—" he said Made a beheading gesture, "Kill Guo Si, and use Dong Zhuo's arm."

Liu Tan was the original Marquis of Hefei [1], the one who proclaimed himself emperor with the support of Jizhou Muwang Fen.Originally, neither he nor Wang Fen had a strong background, and it was a crazy move to claim the title of emperor first. If Lingdi was still there, no one would pay attention to these two little brothers.But who knows that things in the world are fickle. Within a year, the Yellow Turban Uprising, Lingdi's death, Dong Zhuo's usurpation of power, and princes' self-reliance happened one after another. Under the laissez-faire and promotion of various careerists, he really succeeded in proclaiming himself emperor.

The country name is Jihan, and the year name is Huangtian.

In order to respond to the prophecy that "the sky is dead, the yellow sky will stand", it is really hard work.But it's understandable when you think about it, Jizhou is Zhang Jiao's hometown and the base camp of the Yellow Turban Army.Exchanging an era name for the return of the remnants of the Yellow Turbans is simply a lucrative deal.

Cao Cao frowned while thinking about the news from Jizhou: "Could it be that Huang Tiandi was thought to be the orthodox Han? In terms of blood relationship, he is only a clan eight thousand miles away, not comparable to King Chenliu, who was the son of the late Emperor. 【2】; In terms of standing, how can he be convincing by recruiting yellow scarf thieves to start a business?"

Yuan Shao hammered the table: "Then do you want me to enter Luoyang to serve Liu Xie's son as the master? When I helped General He behead the Empress Dowager Dong and welcome the eldest prince Liu Bian, I have already completely offended the second prince and his family. Originally, when I saw Liu Xie ascended the throne and Liu Bian died, I planned to go back to the mountains and forests. But Dong Zhuo heard that I was good friends with Xu You from Jihan, so he slaughtered all the Yuan family in Luoyang... I have pity on my Yuan family with more than a hundred people ... If you don't take revenge, you will never be a human being!"【3】

Seeing his tears and snot coming out, Cao Cao had no choice but to comfort him: "At the beginning, it was not impossible to unite the states to attack Dong Zhuo."

Yuan Shao raised his head abruptly and grabbed Cao Cao's hand: "Meng De is willing to send troops?"

"I originally planned to attack Dong Zhuo after the summer harvest this year."

Yuan Shao became even more excited, and almost danced while pulling Cao Cao's sleeves. "I knew Mengde..."

"Wait—" Cao Cao hurriedly stopped him, and said quickly, "It's okay to ask Dong Dong, but you can't send troops in the name of Liu Tan Jihan, otherwise we will become rebellious officials and traitors who set up another court, and we will not be recognized by the world."

Yuan Shao stopped all body movements, and looked at Cao Cao with piercing eyes, and there was no trace of grief inside.He said in a deep voice, "I also think that Liu Tan and Wang Fen are not convincing, and the reign name Huang Tian is even more of a joke. I think, how about we send troops in the name of 'revenge for Young Emperor Liu Bian'? "

Only then did Cao Cao breathe a sigh of relief: "As long as you are not blinded by hatred, who is the hero of the world?"

Hearing Cao Cao's compliment, Yuan Benchu's face showed a trace of pride in controlling the overall situation, as if he was the high-spirited Yuan Benchu ​​in the General's Mansion back then. "Since it is to avenge the young emperor, then I will send troops directly to Luoyang, regardless of Dong Zhuo's army sent to Jizhou." Let them fight Wang Fen and Liu Tan, and it would be best for both sides to suffer.

Many officials in Jizhou are former disciples of the Yuan family. Once Liu Tan falls, he can just take over Jizhou.Hiding behind Liu Tan and plotting, where is it that he can be the master of his own house?

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao was even happier, and ran outside before finishing his tea. "Prepare the car, prepare the car. I'm going to contact Zhang Miao, Qiao Mao and others."

Cao Cao stood in front of the mansion, watching Yuan Shao's gorgeous car leave in a hurry, his eyes were deep.From his point of view, Emperor Ling had only two sons, the eldest Liu Bian was killed by Dong Zhuo, and now no matter how unwilling he was, he could only pinch his nose to recognize the five-year-old Liu Xie.Eliminating Dong Zhuo and supporting the young emperor is the way to save the country.

But it seems that other people don't think so.

Even Ah Sheng didn't think so.

In the early spring when the oriole was singing, Cao Cao could clearly recall the words that A Sheng sent along with the grain seeds: "Brother thought that some of the people begging for Dong were for fame, and some were for destroying the central court." What about your prestige?"

Am I really wrong?

Can begging Dong really not save the big man?

Spring was speechless, and also came to the land of Liaodong.The first city to usher in vitality is the southernmost port of Dalian.

Caojiawu Fort was built on a low hill, and the road paved with cement and pebbles made it extremely convenient to go up and down, and it took less than a stick of incense to enter the bustling urban area.The blue tiles and carved railings stretch all the way to the port, echoing the countless sea ships docked there.

At this time, two young boys were riding a pony, carrying hares and pheasants, and galloped along the cement road to the short hill.After passing three fences, the two got off their horses and rushed into the main hall familiarly: "Mother, we saw the 'Zhiyuan' parked at the port, but grandpa and aunt are here?"

Entering the house, I saw that the formerly deserted main hall was already crowded by the Cao family.Cao Song's concubine, Cao Song's concubine, concubine and concubine, concubine and concubine, plus unmarried daughter and granddaughter, there are three NO.40 people.

Crowded and irregular.

The corners of Cao Ang's eyes twitched, and he quickly bowed his head in salute, his movements were flowing and elegant.This set of rituals was learned by A Sheng from the Xun family, even if Yuan Shao came, he could only praise it.

Nine-year-old Cao Shuo is not as thoughtful as his elder brother.He is especially enthusiastic about sea ships, and he still danced when he climbed on the seat: "Mother, the 'Zhiyuan' is so big, we can see it from the mountain. It is even bigger than the 'Weiyuan' we took when we came here."

Ding wiped Cao Shuo's sweat with a smile, but said something distasteful: "You smell like blood all over your body, you don't know how to change your clothes, what should you do if you offended your aunt and sisters?"

Cao Ang quickly apologized and dragged his younger brother to change clothes behind the screen.

Grandpa Cao Song sitting at the top is full of kindness.Whether it is the innocent and lively Cao Shuo, or Cao Ang, who has the ability to advance and retreat, they all comforted his heart hurt by his son's rebellion: "Good, good. Meng De's son is well-raised."

Ding hurriedly said modestly: "Ah Weng Miao Zan. Erlang has been busy with spring plowing for the past few days, and these two children have gone wild, hunting and riding horses outside all day—"

"That's right. It's fine with Cao Ang, and Cao Shuo is too unruly." This arrogant voice, you don't need to listen to the content to know it is Zhang.

Ding's eyes sank slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised two points: "That's right, there are mink and deer, how can there be so many mink fur at home? I told them that killing is too heavy, what do you say when you are Ah Shuo? Ding's eyes stared at Zhang intentionally or unintentionally, and his red lips parted slightly: "Ah Shuo said, what is deer hunting, he will fight Xianbei in the future, and the hunter will be a hero if he has countless heads!"

Mrs. Zhang was frightened by her gaze and almost fell off the seat.

Ding smiled, and turned to Cao Song again: "Aunt, tell me, is this child undisciplined?" She sat in a dignified posture, her smile unchanged, as if she had never heard Zhang speak.

"Where are you... a virtuous woman?" Cao Song stammered, "In today's troubled times, only a strong force can survive. I think Ah Shuo is very good. I think Ah Shuo is very good."

Brothers Cao Ang and Cao Shuo hid behind the screen.Cao Shuo secretly whispered to his brother, "Brother, when did I say I was going to join the army? We haven't caught a mink either."

Cao Ang patted the stupid brother's head affectionately, and said in a low voice, "This is mother bluffing them. Just wait and see. After today, not so many people dare to bother us."

Sure enough, no one dared to object when Ding shared rooms after lunch.The courtyard that Mrs. Zhang and her children were assigned to was the same as the other concubines, concubines, and even a little more remote, so she didn't dare to say anything.

Bian, who was finally freed from the sea of ​​misery, almost hugged Ding and cried. "Madam...or Madam Gaoming..."

Seeing her big belly, Ding was a little apprehensive: "There's no such thing as being smart or not. You take good care of your baby, you've been thriving all the way, now raising your baby is the most important thing."

Only then did Mrs. Bian wipe away her tears and smiled: "Then I'm going back to my room?"

"Go, go, I'll ask the gynecologist to show you. If there's anything missing, just ask someone to come back to me."

Mrs. Bian was escorted away by her maid, leaving her sister-in-law Cao Pei, grandfather Cao Song, and two children, Cao Ang and Cao Shuo.These people are the real masters.Ding asked someone to change the incense and re-serve the dim sum.

"Oh," Cao Shuo rested his chin on his hand, "It's a pity that my sister hasn't come back yet, and I missed my mother's heroic appearance."

Cao Ang immediately glared at his younger brother, his grandfather was still sitting on top.

Mrs. Ding looked at Cao Song with a half-smile: "The courtyard next to Mrs. Zhang has a nice view. If Ah Weng wants to live in it, can I have my servants repair it?"

Cao Song: ... "This is against the rules. I'd better live in the main house."

"Your courtyard, Erlang, has been prepared a long time ago. It is at the innermost part of the central axis of Wubao, facing south, and the Peony Spring. By the way, it is just across the wall from the Plum Garden. Grandma does not close the door to thank guests now. You go to the Plum Garden to visit her. , and very convenient.”

grandmother?Wu?That living Bodhisattva?

Cao Song felt cold sweat all over his back, and he didn't know how he was helped back to the room.He needs to soak in a hot spring to calm down.

After dealing with the concubine and the incomprehensible father-in-law's family, Ding's eyes turned to Cao Pei, who was like a living dead.

"Ape, you..."

A Pei was eating milk cake, and when he heard this, he raised his head, staring straight at Ding with two dull eyes.

Ding smiled and patted her head: "That child, Ah Zhen, went to Goguryeo in the north to help the medical hall. The danger is a bit dangerous, but I think she lives comfortably. Do you want to go to relax?"

The author has something to say: Note [1]: Historically, it is true that Jizhou Mu Wangfen tried to establish Hefei Hou as the emperor, which happened in 188 (the Hanling Emperor died in 189).But at that time, Emperor Ling was still alive and kicking, and Zhang Jiao was already cold, so he failed in the end. Xu You fled, Wang Fen committed suicide, and everyone else also died.The Marquis of Hefei belongs to the clan, and his name cannot be verified. Liu Tan was fabricated by me.

Note [2]: King Chenliu refers to Liu Xie, the second son of Emperor Ling.During Liu Bian's short succession to the throne, he named his younger brother King Chenliu.

Note [3]: About Yuan Shao's whole family was killed in history.The Yuan family is from Runan County, Yuzhou, next door to Qiao County, Peiguo, Cao Cao's hometown.But because many members of the Yuan family are officials in Luoyang, most of the relatives of the core direct line are in Luoyang.When Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu joined forces with the feudal lords to attack Dong, their uncle Yuan Kai was serving as the Sangong at the court, and his whole family was killed.But judging from their age, Yuan Shao's sons should be safe and sound, perhaps because they were in their hometown Runan at that time, or they were with their father.So the so-called killing of the whole family means killing the whole family of the uncle. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu didn't suffer much damage, and the grief passed.It can be seen from the passive sabotage of the two of them when they were seeking directors that they had no intention of revenge at all.

At the request of the comments, I will help you recall the children of the Cao family.

Cao Cao's children (currently all three are born by the concubine Liu and raised by his main wife Ding):

k, the eldest daughter, Cao Zhen, was a bear at the beginning, cut corners in her homework, and caused a head injury to Ta'an in a dispute (Ta'an told his aunt that he had robbed Cao Zhen's pony, but after one was a sinner who was sent under the fence, One is the eldest daughter of the head of the family, and it is clear at a glance who is robbing whom), which indirectly led to the tragic fate of the orphans of the Ta clan.Later, he was brought to the battlefield of the Yellow Turban by Asheng, facing Huangfusong's army and asked to adopt the orphan, so he was appreciated by Sun Jian and asked to marry his eldest son, Sun Ce.

l, the eldest son Cao Ang, the heir is good in everything, so I won't repeat them.

m, the second son, Cao Shuo, was born weak, and grew up healthy only by Ah Sheng's treatment, so the elders did not make too many demands on him, and now he has developed a more innocent character, a good friend of Ta'an, who once interceded for Ta'an .
