[Three Kingdoms] After crossing, I opened the sick and weak main road line

Sun Jian completely forgot about Yuxi, and suddenly remembered that he still has such a thing in his hands. People are stupid. Before Cao Cao called him back, he had other things to say, so he hurried back. I rummaged through boxes and cabinets in my residence in the city to find things.

Fortunately, he was the only one who forgot about Yuxi. The wooden box containing the big treasure was kept in the study. He didn’t come to the study often on weekdays. If he had something to do, he would either go to the government office or Cao Cao’s mansion, and send him the paperwork. He didn't have time to deal with it here, so why not send it to Caozhou Mu directly.

Those who can do more work. In this kind of matter, he admits that Cao Mengde is better than him.

Cao Hong and Xiahou Dun were in the official office to appease the irritable Cao Cao. Cao Ren never went up in this kind of technical work. He winked at Xiahouyuan to say hello, and quickly disappeared.

When my cousin got irritable and became a man, Cao Zilian and the others could still persuade him. If he tried to persuade him, he was afraid that he would be beaten before he even started to speak. He was clearly trying to persuade him to relax. Why would he only listen to others and not him? Is it okay if he doesn't persuade?

Cao Zixiao has learned to be smart now, and he will not do anything that should not be done to death. Anyway, he will not be the one who will get angry and have a headache. Besides, Cao Zilian and the others don't need him to do more than stay here. He would rather go to Wucheng Hou's mansion to see what the legendary Jade Seal of Chuanguo looks like.

Sun Jian hugged the box containing the jade seal and was terrified. His heart was beating very fast, and it took him a while to recover.

Cao Ren poked his head at the door, seeing that this person finally noticed someone else at the door, and grinned happily, "Don't think too much, Marquis Wu Cheng, I just want to see if the jade seal has been found?"

"I've found it, I've found it, come in if you want to see it, and when it's delivered to Yecheng tomorrow, you won't be able to see it if you want to see it again." Sun Jian waved his hand, walked behind the dusty desk, and wiped it casually. After a few clicks, he opened the box and took out the four-inch jade seal inside.

Although this thing is not very big, it is the proof of the orthodox origin of the emperor. It is said that the Chuanguo Yuxi was made by Qin Shihuang with the legendary priceless Heshibi. "Shou Yongchang" eight characters, and then the handwriting is carved on the jade by the jade craftsman.

Qin Shihuang ordered people to make Heshibi into a jade seal, intending to pass it on to his descendants from generation to generation. "divided land", accidentally took advantage of the old Liu's family. 【1】

Qin ruled the world and died. So many emperors in the Han Dynasty also used the Jade Seal of the Kingdom as the seal of the emperor. The important weapon of the country is this thing. Although it was inherited from the Qin Dynasty, the emperor sat on the throne without this thing. I can't feel at ease.

Thinking of this, Wu Chenghou's eyes began to wander again. He felt that he really couldn't be blamed for this matter. Back then, the old thief Dong Zhuo forced the imperial court to move the capital. The city is already an empty city.

Thief Dong forcibly moved the people away. Before he left, he dug up all the good things in the Luoyang imperial mausoleum. Wherever he went, there was no grass growing. The emperor's relatives who dug the grave repaired the mausoleum, and they would not let him live in peace after death, and they were not afraid that the ancestors of the old Liu family would form a team to find him.

The royal family has been reduced to such a point, and I always feel that it is not Dong Zhuo who is worried about the dreams of the ancestors, but the clan members surnamed Liu.

In any case, he was very busy those days, and bad things continued to happen in the Kanto League, so it is understandable that he forgot the Chuanguo Yuxi.

Fortunately, nothing happened to this thing. He didn't tell anyone in the government office just now. No one knew that he had left the Chuanguo Yuxi behind. If it got out, it must be Cao Mengde's fault.

Cao Ren didn't think too much about it. Seeing him open the box, he moved over curiously and shook his head when he saw the gold patch on it, "It's such a pity that such a big piece of jade fell like this."

Qin Dynasty II died, and the Han Dynasty replaced it. The Jade Seal of the Chuanguo changed from the heirloom of the Qin Emperor to the heirloom of the Han Emperor. Wang Mang usurped the power and regent, and supported Ru Ziying as a puppet. Although Wang Zhengjun, who is getting older and older, uses his natal family members, he still wants to protect the country of the Liu family. She did not expect that Wang Mang would have the ambition to usurp the throne. fell.

A broken mirror is hard to round again, and the jade seal was thrown out of the gap. No matter how exquisite the craftsmanship of the craftsman responsible for the repair, it cannot be restored to its original state.

"It's good to have it. It doesn't matter if it's missing or not. Does the emperor value the jade seal itself?" Sun Jian closed the box, waved to Cao Ren, and asked in a low voice, "Is there anything else that you call me back?" matter?"

Cao Ren rolled his eyes, thinking that anyway, he would definitely go to Jizhou to make a big splash. This is not something that can be concealed, and it is okay to tell this person, so he told all the things mentioned in the other letter .

They wiped out all the thieves and bandits in the territory like a storm. Even if there is a disturbance, Wu Chenghou and his soldiers and horses are enough to deal with it. My cousin spends all his thoughts on farming and governing. He really does this kind of work. If you don't come, it happens that there are not enough generals in Jizhou, and those generals who grow mushrooms in Yanzhou will of course go there to show their talents.

When the emperor arrived in Yecheng, the emperor was there, so they could fight wherever they wanted, Cao Zixiao no longer looked down on the little Yanzhou.He is going to a wider place to fight the world.

Sun Jian slapped him awake, squeezed the prickly stubble on his chin, and immediately decided, "Since Zixiao is going to Yecheng, why not come with me, so that there will be a caretaker on the way, too. It’s too important, I have to send it over in person.”

Cao Ren was stunned for a moment, "But..."

"No, but, hurry back and pack your luggage. Forget it, you don't need to bring anything, just ride on the horse and follow me. Yecheng has everything, and I can't wrong you." Wu Chenghou moved quickly, wrapping the box into a package in the blink of an eye. In the body, I will leave Changyi immediately.

"No, it's going to be dark soon. It's too dangerous to travel at night, and there's still time to go tomorrow." Cao Ren subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but Sun Jian urged him urgently, and couldn't think of anything wrong for a while. But let him hurry at night, he really didn't dare to go out.

It's cold outside, and the people hide at home and don't go out. What if they encounter hungry wolves? He beat the wild wolves who were hungry in winter, and the wild wolves could beat him ten times.

Sun Jian glanced at him, "Look at your potential, you're just a pack of wolves, can they still eat you up?"

Cao Ren nodded with eyes full of horror, and hugged himself with a lot of flesh in fear, "What else can a pack of wolves do if they are not looking for food, they are really surrounded by those things. Today next year will be the death day of my Cao Zixiao, and the grass on the grave will be able to kill me." Elder Gao."

Thinking of him, Cao Zixiao, who was brave and good at fighting all his life, he never thought that he would die in the mouth of wolves who went out to look for food in winter before he had time to make contributions.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, he would run out of the city in the middle of the night even if he was killed.

He's still young and life matters.

Sun Jian was so confused by this kid that he didn't know what to say, so he asked the steward of the house to find him a thick tiger-skin cloak, and pick a horse with enough stamina. Don't be afraid to drive at night.

Most of the wolves live in the deep mountains and old forests, and the official road from Yanzhou to Jizhou is unimpeded. What kind of wolves can run all the way from the deep mountains and old forests to the official road to attack people passing by?

Don't this kid take it seriously when he was frightened by adults a lot when he was a child. His son couldn't be fooled before he was ten years old. Why is this kid not as good as a teenager.

The steward of the mansion was very agile in his work, and quickly brought the horse over. Wu Chenghou hung the package on his chest and got on the horse. He was about to raise his whip and set off when he heard a gloomy voice from behind, "It's late at night, where is Wu Chenghou going?"

Outside the gate, Cao Mengde looked expressionlessly at Sun Wentai who was ready to go, and the anger that had just subsided suddenly reappeared.

Running out in the middle of the night, does this bastard want to take the opportunity to hide and relax? He didn't stop this guy from running fast last year, so he can't do it again this year.

Sun Jian looked awkwardly at Cao Cao, who was looking unhappy, and pointed to the package on his chest, "Brother Meng De, don't blame me, this is a big matter, I don't feel relieved to hand it over to someone else, it's better to go to Yecheng and hand it over to the lord." Proper, so as not to make mistakes on the road and lose things again."

"Brother Wentai has worked hard in training soldiers. How can you do such a long-distance trek in person? I wonder if Brother Wentai can believe it?" Cao Cao stepped forward and waved his hands to ask Brother Xiahou to block the guy's way out of the encirclement. He said "I don't know if Brother Wentai can believe it or not", but what he said was "If you dare to say that you don't trust you, don't even think about going one step further today". The posture of gang fights.

Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others were in the barracks outside the city, and Sun Wentai only brought back a few personal soldiers. There were a lot of people on his side, and a fight would definitely knock this bastard to the ground.

Wu Chenghou stroked the mane on the horse's neck, looked left and right at the blocked exit, and thought that he might not be able to leave today, but he still tried to tell Cao Cao not to be so caring, "Yecheng is not too far away from Changyi." Far away, the end of the year is approaching, big and small matters in Yanzhou need to be handled by Brother Meng De, and I can do such small things as sending things by myself, I don’t need Brother Meng De to drive me, let me do it myself."

Cao Cao looked over quietly, "You also know that the end of the year is approaching."

The end of the year is approaching, and it is the busiest time of the year. It’s okay for this guy to stay in the military camp and not help out. Anyway, he is in Changyi, and he feels comforted in his heart, but he is so busy here that he doesn’t even touch the ground. , but this guy found an excuse to run to Yecheng with his wife and child surrounded by his knees. Maybe the youngest child will be full moon by this time next year. Does he have the nerve?

Oh, with Wu Chenghou's thick skin, he must be mean, so in order to prevent that from happening, it is better to eliminate the possibility of him making excuses to slip away from the source.

The officials in the government office also have to celebrate the New Year. After the last few days of the twelfth lunar month, they can go home to celebrate the New Year. He is Yanzhou Shepherd, and Sun Wentai is Yanzhou Governor. Since anyone can stay in Changyi, why can’t they let them Sun Wentai stayed?

This guy had already run once last year, even if it was once for one person, it was his turn this year.

Cao Mengde's gloomy face was very intrusive, no matter how unhappy Marquis Wu Cheng was, he had no choice but to dismount and go back. Going back was not enough, and he dared not speak out even when the box and package containing the Jade Seal of Chuan Guo were robbed.

Alas, he has his reasons for rushing to Yecheng. He is different from this guy. This guy’s wife and children are in Yecheng and they don’t waste time in Yanzhou to search for beautiful women to have children. He is different. He and his wife have a good relationship, but There is no plan to create a child in Yanzhou to disturb his wife.

There is no comparison between people. Cao Mengde's marriage to a daughter-in-law was arranged by his family, and he had to worry about marrying a daughter-in-law. God knows how his wife shed tears when she married into the Sun's family. Their relationship is so good now, and he, Sun Wentai, has contributed a lot.

Seeing that the tiger cub in his family is also at the age of getting married and having children, if he, a father, dares to mess around outside, that kid can immediately kill him in Changyi and bring him back to his wife to make amends.

The son can't help the father, he is afraid and he is proud.

The big tiger looked anxiously at the robbed Chuanguo Yuxi, looked up to the sky and sighed with emotion that people had to bow their heads under the eaves, looking at Cao Mengde's appearance, I am afraid that he will be required to stay in Changyi for the Chinese New Year this year.

The boy Bofu returned to Jiangdong, and he was trapped in Changyi again. The wife's place must be deserted this year. I don't know what delicious and fun things the lord has produced this year. He is not worried about the children in the family. He only cares about them Own.

Tomorrow, Yanzhou had nothing important to do, so he told the lord to send other people over. The lord was not enough manpower, so it was the same for him to go to the lord to obey orders.

Not to mention anything else, but this time Jizhou sent troops to quell the chaos in Guanzhong, he is definitely more capable than Gao Lan.

Cao Ren looked stupidly at Wu Chenghou being stopped, and then looked at their cousin's gloomy, dripping face, and seemed to understand something later.

Wu Chenghou left in a hurry not to go to Jizhou to deliver the jade seal, but to find a reason to leave Changyi while his cousin was not paying attention. Now that it is the twelfth lunar month, he is leaving now, and he will definitely not come back years ago. I got it back.

As expected of a person who can be the governor, even if he is powerful, fortunately, a mountain is higher than a mountain, and their cousin is even more powerful. No matter how hard Wu Chenghou racked his brains, he couldn't escape his cousin's plan.

Their cousin is a ruthless person who uses generals as civil servants. Marquis Wu Cheng usually goes to inspect the military camps in various counties and counties, and he doesn't stay in Changyi City for a long time. More "insane".

When Cao Zixiao was at home, he didn’t pay much attention to reading. He fished for three days and spent two days drying the net. Those who read the slips knew him, but after opening the bamboo slips, he couldn’t recognize what was written on them. After staying in Changyi for so long Not only can he read Confucian classics without any obstacles, but he can also help deal with a few of the official affairs when there are too many.

Although the official documents he had read had to be re-marked by others, this was something he never even dared to think about before. He still doesn't know how to deal with official documents, but he can read and recognize them all, which is amazing.

Laziness doesn't exist in front of his cousin. He devotes himself to getting up early and working hard, and even presses others to do his best with him. Wu Chenghou should stop thinking about it, and just listen to his cousin's arrangement honestly.

Cao Ren paced out, and patted Sun Jian on the shoulder to cheer him up. Thinking that he would soon have the opportunity to fight the enemy and make contributions, he couldn't hide the joy on his face. Let him do a good job in Changyi, and before Wu Chenghou clenched his fists and wanted to beat someone up, he quickly ran away with oil on his feet.

Sun Jian: ...

The brat deserves a beating.

Early the next morning, Cao Cao walked out of the house in good spirits, and came to the door of Sun's residence and knocked on the door. He didn't let the guards go in to call for someone, but let the man tell Sun Jian that after they left Changyi, all the affairs of Yanzhou would be handled by them. Wu Chenghou had the final say alone, and if he couldn't make up his mind about something, he would write a letter and send it to Yecheng. Anyway, Yecheng was not too far away from Changyi, so it was delivered within a day.

Cao Ren poked Cao Hong next to him, and whispered to his ear, "Cao Zilian, do you feel that your cousin's expression is a little bit awkward?"

Yesterday when he was blocking people, his face was so scary, those who didn't know thought he was going to kill someone's family, but now, tsk tsk tsk, what a villain's ugly face.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, why are you covering your mouth?

Cao Hong sideways pushed Cao Zixiao, who couldn't control his mouth, on the horse's back, took out the dry food he was going to eat on the road, broke a piece, and stuffed it into his mouth. It's hot, but such a big piece is stuffed directly into it, and it's enough to choke people.

If he couldn't control his mouth, he would cover it with something to eat, so as not to say something that shouldn't be said, and let his cousin hear it and get him punished together.

Cao Ren puffed out his cheeks aggrievedly, chewed hard on the pancakes in his mouth, patted the horse's head and turned to Brother Xiahou next to him.

Seeing him coming, Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun also took out the dry food they carried with them. As long as this man dared to speak, they could cover his mouth with pancakes like Cao Hong.

Cao Ren:  …

What kind of skill is it to take out dry food now? If you have the ability, you can take out the dry food when you eat on the road. He is young and has a big appetite, so it is no problem for one person to eat dry food for four people.

Compared with Jizhou, Yanzhou is not so cold, but it is not warm enough to go anywhere. It is just that there is no snow on the road. After leaving Changyi City, the group of people galloped along the official road. After crossing the Yellow River, they obviously felt a sore throat when breathing. The snow on the side of the road was as high as a calf. Fortunately, people walked on the official road from time to time. Judging from the smoothness, it should be cleared by the government, so that the horse's hooves will not get stuck in it.

In cold weather, ordinary people are not willing to go far, but the caravans going to and from the states will not be interrupted. People who can live can live through the winter with peace of mind. They will drag their families to places they think are safe.

Guanzhong was in turmoil, and the closest and most stable place to Guanzhong was Jizhou. There were many traces of carriages and horses along the way, but there were no corpses that died of cold and starvation on the side of the road, which was rare.

Cao Cao and the others set off from Changyi in the morning. If the road was easy to travel in spring and autumn, they would be able to reach Yecheng that night. It was the next afternoon.

Cao Ren yawned listlessly. They found a random village to stay at night, and the wolves howled constantly outside, scaring him so much that he couldn't sleep well all night. Even though he knew that wolves would not easily attack the village, he still didn't dare to sleep .

Don't be afraid of [-], just in case, what if he is unlucky to catch up with the once-in-a-century wolf pack attacking the village?

Cao Cao verified his identity at the gate of the city, turned his head and glanced at Cao Zixiao, who was not energetic, twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "If you are afraid of this, you are also afraid of that, why don't you become a general, abandon martial arts and stay by my side all the time. How about it?"

"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, why should I be afraid? Cousin, don't spit blood!" Cao Ren shivered, his dark circles under his eyes, and he instantly stiffened, "I am as good at both civil and military as my cousin, so why do I need to abandon martial arts and follow literature?"

Cao Hong curled his lips, and got goosebumps all over his body from this guy's brazen words. Their Cao family is a big family after all, and they were forced to learn to read like a child in their twenties. Who is it? Why are the words so strange coming out of Cao Zixiao's mouth?

Cao Cao was too lazy to talk to this stinky boy, so he turned to Xiahou Dun and Xiahouyuan and said a few words, and asked them to go to his mansion to rest later, and he could just go to the state shepherd's mansion by himself.

It's so cold outside, my brother is afraid of the cold, so there's a high probability that he won't go to the government office, but even if he goes to the government office, it's okay, the two places are close, and he can arrive within a few steps, so it's easy to find someone.

What Wu Chenghou said was right. He really didn’t feel at ease handing over such precious items as the Chuanguo Yuxi to others, and he was also worried about wearing it next to his body. Cao Zixiao was afraid of wolves attacking at night and dared not sleep. He was worried that the jade seal would be stolen. Not stable either.

It is one thing to know that no one will come to steal it, but it is another thing to be worried.

Hurry up and give the things to the elder brother, and then the elder brother will keep it for himself or give it to the little emperor to make the decision, as long as the Chuan Guo Yuxi does not go out of business in his hands.

A few people came to the front of the mansion from the street with few pedestrians. A few children walked and gesticulated the wooden sword in their hands. After hearing the sound of horseshoes, they watched for a long time, and after identifying who they were, they all rushed over. .

"Uncle Dun, why are you back?" Cao Zhang threw his wooden sword and rushed up like a pony. As soon as Xiahou Dun got off the horse, the little guy immediately hugged his thigh and did not let go. taste.

Especially Cao Mengde, his own father who hadn't gone far, turned his horse's head around and turned back after hearing his son's voice.

Cao Pi picked up the wooden sword thrown by his stupid brother, looked at their father's expression, and only hoped that his stupid brother would not cry too much later.

The eldest brother went to the military camp, and he couldn't hear him crying. There are few people in the family who can coax the children except the eldest brother. The idiot Cao Zhang turned around quickly, and his father was already smoking.

Cao Pi looked at his stupid brother who didn't realize the danger approaching with hatred, and said a few words to Sun Quan and Sun Yi next to him to make an appointment to play together next time, then walked over and called obediently, "Father."

Cao Zhang tilted his head, his big eyes blinked and blinked, and the blankness in his eyes was clearly visible, "Father is back too?"

Cao Pi: ...

Brother, remember to cry louder later, it is best to spread it to the state pastoral mansion next door, otherwise even if the eldest brother is here, there is nothing he can do.
