Three Kingdoms: The Crown Prince of Wei, betrothed to Sun Shangxiang at the beginning

Fan Cheng.

Cao Chong led the generals to stand in front of the city gate, and Cao Cao will arrive today.

As time passed, the army appeared at the end of the road, coming towards Fan Cheng from far and near.

When the car approached, Cao Chong and the others stepped forward.

"The child meets Aon."

"The last will meet the Lord."

"Hahaha~" Cao Cao laughed and got out of the car, "Good! Very good! Lin Er led the pioneer to make great achievements this time! "

The specific history of the battle, Cao Chun personally reported to Cao Cao.

Cao Chong's merits are described in detail, and there is no shy about being captured.

Naturally, the first merit of this battle must have fallen on Cao Chong, and Cao Chundu had to lean back.

"Fluke." Cao Chong smiled modestly.

"It's not a fluke at all." Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "Then what kind of Crouching Dragon, it's quite powerful to blow, hasn't it been recognized by my family Lin'er?" My son is far better than Wolong! "

Subsequently, Cao Cao exchanged a few pleasantries with Cao Chun, Zhang Liao and others.

Xia Houyuan came out impatiently, came to the front and pulled Cao Chong, "Cangshu, where is Xiao Juan?" "

"Oh." Cao Chong hurriedly pointed behind him, "Cousin is just behind." "

Everyone looked in the direction of Cao Chong's finger and saw a woman standing tall.

"Little Trickle?" Xia Houyuan lost his voice and called, he hadn't seen him for seven or eight years, and his daughter's appearance was already very different.

"Awen!"

Xia Hou Juan, who was originally a little "cowardly", after seeing Xia Hou Yuan, all the hesitation in his heart suddenly disappeared, and he threw himself into his father's arms without hesitation.

"Awen... Woo hoo..." Xia Hou cried.

"Little trickle... It's really Xiao Juan..." Xia Houyuan is also an old tearful.

This daughter is not Xia Houyuan's biological daughter, but she is more like her own daughter.

During the famine years, in order to feed Xiahou Juan, Xiahou Yuan would rather starve his own son than let his adopted daughter starve.

But it was such a pearl in his hand, at the age of thirteen, he was collecting firewood outside the city of Qian County, and was directly abducted by Zhang Fei who was passing by, and seven or eight years passed in the blink of an eye.

I thought it would be difficult to see each other again in my lifetime, but I didn't expect to be rescued by Cao Chong.

"Cangshu, don't say anything."

"Oh ma!" Cao Chong jumped and jumped directly on Cao Cao's back.

"Miaocai, what are you doing?!" Cao Cao said displeased: "If there is any reason for you to give him a salute, hurry up." "

"How can uncle take revenge?" Cao Chong also said: "If you kowtow this one, your nephew must not lose his life?" "

"Excited... Too excited..." Xia Houyuan was a little embarrassed, the whole person didn't know what to do, and he was at a loss.

"Huh." Cao Cao said with a smile: "Cangshu won the battle, and Xiao Juan went home safely, this is a double happiness." "

"Brother also said less joy." Cao Ren interjected from the side.

"Oh?"

"And Jingzhou is about to surrender, this is not the three joys at the door."

"Haha, Zixiao's words are reasonable." Cao Cao laughed loudly and immediately said, "Send someone to Xiangyang and let that guy from Cai Yao come and see me." "

Cao Cao and Cai Yao have a small relationship, and they plan to call Cai Yao over first to explore the bottom.

After all, whether to surrender or to surrender is still up for debate, but Cao Cao has always been suspicious.

After the order, the group embraced Cao Cao and entered Fancheng.

Cao Chong was walking when he suddenly noticed someone tapping him on the shoulder.

Looking back, it was Xiahou Yuan's mother and daughter.

"Uncle, cousin." Cao Chong immediately saluted.

Xia Houyuan waved his hand, "No need to be polite, I also have to thank Cangshu for allowing my father and daughter to reunite." "

"Uncle is polite, it's all a family."

"That's right." Xia Houyuan patted Cao Chong on the shoulder and promised, "If something squeaks in the future, uncle will definitely not leave it alone." "

"Okay!!"

Don't look at it as just a sentence, but it is not excessive to describe it as "a promise".

This time, as a pioneer in the southern expedition, the tiger and leopard riding and Cao Chong had already mingled, and Cao Chong also wrote them down one by one.

At the same time, he also saved Cao Chun this time and formed a deep friendship with this sect martial general.

At the critical moment in the future, let Cao Chun stand on his own, Cao Chong still has this confidence.

Now that he had received Xia Houyuan's promise, it was equivalent to another sect martial general on his side.

This trip out can be described as a full harvest.

Entering the city, the feast was naturally prepared to wash the dust for the army.

However, Cao Cao said that he would wait for Cai Yao to come over, and the banquet was naturally postponed, so that everyone could rest first.

After everyone had retreated, Cao Cao called his beloved son to his side and asked, "Have you seen you in Yu County?" "

"See you." Cao Chong nodded and said, "The adult still left me to eat, and by the way, I also stayed in the house for a night." "

"It has to be you boy." Cao Cao rubbed his hands and couldn't help but ask, "Did you speak for your father?" "

"That's nature!" Cao Chong held his head high and said, "The child is good enough to persuade the adults, saying that Aweng has not been easy over the years, and persuading the adults to get back together with Aweng earlier." "

Cao Chong can be described as lying without blinking, and the matter of "scolding his father for glory" seems to be completely non-existent.

"What did she say?" Cao Cao looked expectant.

"I still don't care about what Awen did at the beginning, and I haven't been able to let go completely."

Cao Cao couldn't help but show disappointment when he heard this, and Cao Chong hurriedly said: "But Don't worry about Awen, the adult's attitude has been relaxed, and when she turns back, she will enlighten her well, presumably she will be able to forgive Weng." "

"Are you sure?" Cao Cao was skeptical.

But he had personally gone to find Mrs. Ding, and his lips were worn, and Mrs. Ding didn't look at him, which made Cao Cao extremely frustrated.

As a married couple, Cao Cao knew Mrs. Ding very well and felt that she was not so easy to persuade.

"Don't believe it?!" Cao Chong said angrily, "Since Aweng can't trust a child, then you can ask for another master." "

"Don't mind." Cao Cao hurriedly said good things and coaxed his good son, "For the father, this is not a matter of concern, it is chaotic." "

"Proper salute, salute, Yanjing." Cao Chong shouted outside.

Ding Yi, Ding Xiao, and Ding Yao came in from outside and saluted: "Meet the prime minister, meet the prince." "

"They are..." Cao Cao didn't know.

"Ding Chong, Ding Fei's son." Cao Chong introduced.

Cao Cao raised an eyebrow, understanding that these were all Mrs. Ding's clansmen.

"When the adults heard that I was going on a campaign, they specially arranged for them to assist me, so do you believe it?"

"Believe!" Cao Cao was excited, "Still Cangshu has a way, your mother's affairs, in the future, it will all depend on your persuasion to go to Yuxian to see her more." "

According to current ethics, all children born to concubines are nominally the children of the right wife.

In other words, Mrs. Huan was Cao Chong's biological mother, while Mrs. Ding was Cao Chong's concubine.

However, Cao Chong was not Mrs. Ding's sister-in-law, unless Mrs. Ding opened her mouth and formally decided on the title.

"Awen, don't worry, promise to persuade the adults to go home and live with you."

Cao Chong patted his chest and agreed, and in his heart he silently apologized to his father, and he would definitely "scold his father for glory" next time.

"Hahaha~" Cao Cao was overjoyed and turned his head to look at the three Ding brothers.

After a little hesitation, he said, "You already have a companion by your side, Zhou Bu undoubtedly added the three of them, just made up the four, and there will be four of them by your side in the future." "

Cao Chong's eyes lit up, this is to arrange "four friends" for himself.

"The three of you, hang a subordinate position in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and assist Chong Er in the future, understand?" Cao Cao looked at the three Ding brothers and ordered.

"Obey the Prime Minister's orders."

The three of them had no choice, they were originally arranged by Cao Chong's side at home, specializing in investing and assisting Cao Chong, even if there was no Cao Cao arrangement, they would still continue to assist Cao Chong.

But now that there is a formal appointment, it is the icing on the cake.

Especially for Cao Chong, this meaning is completely different.

There are four people around to assist, and there are "four friends" around you, which are completely two concepts.

"Lin'er, rest for your father." Cao Cao ordered, "When Cai Yao comes, you will go to greet your father on your behalf." "

"Oh." Cao Chong bowed and retreated.

After Cao Chong left, Cao Cao did not go to rest, still sitting in his seat, lost in thought.

"Zihuan is surrounded by people from many families, and Cangshu is surrounded by cold families and foreign relatives." Cao Cao thought thoughtfully, "Maybe you can let the two fight and weaken the power of the family..."

The family is Cao Cao's angel investor and has a great deal of say under Cao Cao.

Cao Cao gave the clan the power to kill the soldiers, and repeatedly issued recruitment orders.

The former is to let the clan and the family contend with each other, and the latter is to appoint the cold family and dilute the family's right to speak.

But unfortunately, the effect of both can only be said to be average.

At present, the sect is full of talents, and the eight tigers of Cao Wei can ride on their own.

The talents of Cao and Xiahou can compete with the talents of the family under their command, which obviously cannot last long.

Historically, the third generation of talents of Cao and Xiahou withered, and only one Cao Shuang was produced, and Sima Yi, the representative of the family, seized the opportunity to directly usurp the throne and succeeded.

Therefore, using the clan against the family, this model is not destined to last.

The number of talents of the two companies cannot be compared to the base of the family.

With Cao Cao's eyes, he naturally realized the seriousness of this matter, and it was imminent to weaken the family.

Therefore, he wanted to make a game with the seizure and let the two sons fight.

Cao Pi and Cao Chong competed for the heir, leading their own descendants to fight.

As long as there is struggle, there will naturally be sacrifice.

Moreover, the sacrifice is not Cao Cao's business, so that Cao Cao can stay out of the matter without causing the vigilance and hostility of the family.

On the other side, Cao Pi and others were opening a small council. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

"How's it going?" Cao Pi asked, "What is the attitude of the generals towards the conquest of Jiangdong?" "

"Hui Gongzi." Yu Ban took the lead in speaking, "I mentioned this matter with many martial generals, and they were all quite interested. "

"Second brother, so are the uncles and elders of the sect family." Cao Chang said excitedly: "I see that there is eighty percent hope for this!" "

The generals came out with the main force, but they didn't fight a battle, and naturally they didn't want to run for nothing.

Therefore, most of them are inclined and look forward to another war with Koto.

"That's it!" Cao Pi's heart landed, "If you want to petition the generals, my father will also think about it." "

"If nothing else, the prime minister will definitely agree." Sima Yi judged.

"Oh? Zhongda said quickly. Cao Pi urged.

"Now that the north has been decided and Jingzhou is about to surrender, then Shuzhong and Jiangdong are left." Sima Yi analyzed: "The army has already been dispatched, and it is difficult for the prime minister to resist it, and there is a high probability that he will use troops against Jiangdong." "

In the northwest, although Cao Cao did not actually rule, at least the warlords were superficially subservient.

Then under the whole world, there are two targets left, Shuzhong and Jiangdong.

Compared to Shuzhong, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, Jiangdong is obviously a better target.

After possessing Jingzhou, Cao Cao had the upper reaches and could attack Jiangdong by going down the river.

To be honest, in the absence of predicting the future, attacking Jiangdong now is indeed a godsend, and no one seems to be wrong.

"Good!" Cao Pi slapped his thigh, "After entering Jingzhou, we will advise my father to attack Jiangdong." "

When the words fell, Wu Qian hurriedly came and said in a panic: "Gongzi, the big thing is not good!" "

"What's wrong?" Cao Pi looked awe-inspiring.

"Prime Minister... Prime Minister Cheng set Cao Chong "Four Friends"! "

"What?!" Cao Pi lost his voice and exclaimed.

When everyone heard this, their faces changed greatly, among the princes, only Cao Pi had "four friends", but now there was one more Cao Chong.

The meaning behind it is self-evident, which shows that Cao Cao really has a heart for Cao Chong and has begun to build a team for Cao Chong.

"Who are they?" Sima Yi immediately asked.

The four friends are indeed very important, which is equivalent to the four princes.

The identity of the person who serves as the four friends is more important, which means how much heritage and energy the team can have.

For example, Cao Pi's four friends, leaving aside Wu Qin and Zhu Xuan, Chen Qun and Sima Yi can use the family power behind them to help Cao Pi accomplish some things.

"In addition to the original Zhou Buji, the other three are Ding Yi, Ding Liao, and Ding Yao."

"Who is this?!" Most of them looked dazed.

"Damn it!" Cao Pi gritted his teeth and said, "People from the Ding family!" "

Cao Pi is old, he lived in Guan County for a while when he was young, and he is naturally familiar with it.

"I heard..." Cao Zhen hesitated, "Before Cao Chong set out on the expedition, he specially went to Yu County to visit that person..."

As the former deputy commander of the tiger and leopard ride, Cao Zhen can still hear some things from the tiger and leopard ride.

As for Cao Chong's possession of four friends, naturally the three brothers of the Ding family released the wind and took the opportunity to create momentum for Cao Chong.

"It's not good."

Even Sima Yi, who had always been sophisticated and calculating, felt extremely tricky at the moment.

"What if... The one who recognized Cao Chong as his son was a concubine! "

At this moment, Cao Pi's face was gloomy, and he naturally understood what this meant.

The three Ding families assisted Cao Chong, which obviously showed that Cao Chong had a good relationship with the Ding family.

Once the mother-son relationship between Mrs. Ding and Cao Chong was set, Cao Chong was a sure sister-in-law.

In front of the concubine, the eldest son is useless!

Standing up is expensive but not long.

Concubines are more noble than concubines, and the latter's age advantage is gone.

At that time, Cao Chong will inherit the family business as a concubine in a crushing posture.

"We must contribute to the war to attack Jiangdong!" Cao Pi cut the railway.

Nowadays, Cao Pi is no longer under pressure, but feels a real sense of crisis, even a sense of precariousness.

In Cao Pi's view, Cao Chong could become a concubine at any time.

Before that, Cao Pi had to make enough merit to calm down.

At the city gate.

"Under Cao Chong, dare to ask Uncle Cai Shi?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." Cai Yao's posture was very low, "Dare to ask Gongzi is..."

"Father Cao Chengxiang."

"So it is, Gongziyi (Wang Dezhao) is a talent, and he really is like a father." Cai Yao is even more enthusiastic now.

"The father specially instructed the evening generation to wait here."

"There is Lao Gongzi, it's too polite."

"Father has set up a banquet in the city, please."

"Gongzi please."

The two entered the city side by side and talked happily along the way.

It is not difficult to see from Cai Yao's attitude that he has been expressing the subtext: I really want to surrender!

Natsukou.

Lu Su mixed into the city, and in the current eventful autumn, there is basically no difficulty.

Coming to the mansion in the city, Lu Su planned to step on the dots and explore the periphery.

However, when I arrived, I saw a white banner hanging in front of the door and was puzzled.

Who died?

Lu Su grabbed a passerby and asked, "Dare to ask who died here?" "

"Oh, Liu Jingzhou." The passerby replied: "Liu Jingzhou passed away, and his son Liu Qi mourned his father. "

"When?" Lu Su was shocked suddenly, but he didn't expect to hear about Liu Biao's death just after coming here.

"Recently, do you have anything else?"

"Excuse me, thanks for informing."

Liu Bei came to Xiakou and brought news of Liu Biao's death at the same time.

As a son, it was a pity that Liu Qi could not go to Xiangyang, and naturally he had to sacrifice his father and organize a funeral to show filial piety.

Lu Su paced around the street, thinking about the impact on the situation after Liu Biao's death.

After a long while, Lu Su suddenly stopped, and then resolutely walked towards the Yamen.

"Sir, you are?" The entourage asked questions.

"Identify yourself." Lu Su didn't hesitate.

"Huh? Sir think twice. "

"No problem!" Lu Su said confidently: "I don't believe that I came to mourn his father, and the other party can still embarrass me?" "

The visitors were guests, especially those who came to mourn Liu Biao, Liu Qi categorically could not embarrass Lu Su, otherwise it would be too much.

People came to your father to offer condolences, and you killed people with your backhand?

Lu Su swaggered to the gate of the mansion, his face fearless.

"Who?" The guard in front of the door immediately stopped and asked Lu Su's identity.

"Jiangdong envoy Lu Su, came to mourn the late Liu Jingzhou, please also report."
