The Nameless of the Common Clans
Chapter 149: A pathetic person
Headache!
When Chen Mo woke up again, it was the next morning. No matter what he did last night, he would always wake up in the morning when it was almost dawn. Although his body had a strong ability to recover, he still had a headache after drinking.
The warmth in the quilt made Chen Mo reluctant to get up. Yun Si's tender body made him linger. What Uncle Zheng said at the beginning seemed to be true. Women are men's bone scrapers. That kind of addictive feeling can really wear out a person's will.
"My husband is awake?" Yun Si was awakened by Chen Mo's action of getting up.
"Well, I was a little out of control last night." Chen Mo smiled while getting dressed.
"You can also say that it is true nature. My husband must be very tired on weekdays, right?" Yun Si shook her head gently and got up to help Chen Mo get dressed.
Tired?
A little bit, but how many people are not tired in this life? I used to think that the emperor would live a carefree life, but what I saw and heard in the court yesterday, Chen Mo suddenly realized that the emperor was also very tired. Everyone has something they carry. Chen Mo wants to revitalize the family, Cao Cao wants to realize his ideal of Pingxi General. How many people can really put aside everything in the world and live a carefree life?
"I don't think so." Shaking his head, Chen Mo rarely shows his vulnerable side in front of others, even to the closest people.
"In fact, my husband knows that my husband is the most charming when he is unrestrained." Yun Si chuckled.
Chen Mo in a drunken state is like a poison that makes people unable to stop. Although he knows the danger, he still can't help but indulge in it.
Chen Mo thought about the scenes of last night carefully, and suddenly felt ashamed to face people. He looked at Yun Si speechlessly: "Women... like this?"
"Uh... not last night, last night my husband was too... unrestrained." Yun Si corrected her mistake. Chen Mo, who was drunk with Cao Cao last night, looked a little broken. He was a handsome man in the world, but suddenly became a drunkard on the street.
"How is Brother Meng De?" Chen Mo asked.
"I'm afraid he's not sober yet." Yun Si shook his head. Not everyone has such an amazing physique as Chen Mo. No matter what he did the day before, he can be full of energy the next day.
"Prepare a few visiting cards. I accepted the favor yesterday and I have to thank the Taifu and Lu Gong." Chen Mo put on his clothes and instructed Yun Si.
Regardless of what Yuan Wei was thinking, it would not be easy for Chen Mo to take over the post of lieutenant of the lower army so smoothly without his words. He had to thank him. In addition, he had to go to Lu Zhi. There were some things he didn't understand. Although the emperor had been refusing to promote him on the grounds of age yesterday, if it wasn't for the emperor's instruction, he and Zhang Rang were not related, and the other party would not have mentioned his name. Obviously, the emperor was behind his promotion to lieutenant.
"I have prepared a visiting card for my husband, and I will send it after dawn." Yun Si smiled while tidying up her clothes.
"Well, I'll go see Brother Meng De." Chen Mo nodded. It seemed... not bad to have a woman who knew people's feelings and was sensible and decent by his side.
He left his room and went straight to the wing room. It was just dawn, and he breathed the fresh air outside the door. He was much more energetic. In Cao Cao's room, he was snoring like thunder. It seemed that he would not wake up for a while.
"Prepare some wine and meat for me and put them in the food basket." Chen Mo rubbed his aching head and looked at Juan'er beside him and said, "I'm going to the prison. If Brother Meng De wakes up, please take good care of him."
For Lu Zhi and Yuan Wei, you have to wait for their response. You can't go to see them on the same day you send a visiting card. You have to wait for their response, just like the last time you visited Lu Zhi. He can go only after Lu Zhi nodded.
But this time he shouldn't wait as long as last time. Yuan Wei should have some intention of winning him over.
"Yes~" Juan'er agreed and asked the cook to prepare wine and food for Chen Mo.
...
"Congratulations to Captain Chen on his promotion." Outside the prison, the officials in charge of the Xing Prison did not stop Chen Mo when they saw him. Since Gao Shun was imprisoned, Chen Mo would come to visit every once in a while and became familiar with the prison guards.
"Why did it happen yesterday, but it seems that everyone knows it today?" Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh at the speed of news spread in Luoyang City.
"There are no secrets in the officialdom." The prison officer shook his head and laughed, but you are quite popular now. A 15-year-old lieutenant is rare in our Han Dynasty.
"It's just luck." Chen Mo shook his head. He really has some luck in being a lieutenant.
The two of them talked all the way and had entered the prison, walking towards Gao Shun's cell.
"Chen Mo!?" A hoarse and sharp shout echoed in the prison like a night owl. The sound was really creepy with the gloomy environment of the prison.
Chen Mo looked in the direction of the sound and saw Bao Hong lying between the shackles of the prison door, trying to get his head out through the gap between the old doors. A pair of bloodshot eyes stared at Chen Mo, like a poisonous snake that wanted to bite someone.
Seeing Bao Hong like this, Chen Mo sighed and looked at the prison officer. The prison officer nodded and left. Chen Mo then took a few steps forward and saluted Bao Hong, saying, "So the general is here."
"Don't pretend to be a good person. You just came to see how embarrassed I am now!" Bao Hong stared at Chen Mo.
Really not.
Chen Mo looked at this former boss, thought about it, and walked over. He took some food from the food basket and handed it to him, saying, "Whether the general believes it or not, it was not my fault that the general was imprisoned this time."
"If it's not you, who else would it be?" Bao Hong sneered.
"There are many, such as Your Majesty, Duke Shuo, and Duke Benchu, etc. Mo is not the only one who knows what the general does. You don't need to read the military pay account book carefully. The general can tell it with just a cursory glance. I have a clue, I have tried to persuade the general, but the general is unwilling to listen. If someone wants to touch the general, don't say that there is something wrong with those account books, even if there is not..." Looking at Bao Hong, Chen Mo sighed and said: "General, I'm afraid It’s hard to stay here.”
"Why?" Bao Hong glared at Chen Mo and said hoarsely.
"Because you are incompetent!" Chen Mo looked at Bao Hong, shook his head and said, "The general still doesn't understand that the Eighth School of Xiyuan is where your majesty and the general compete for military power, killing each other at every step. This time let me The troops went out to fight the Gebei thieves. If, general, you really defeated the Gebei thieves with your own ability, then even if your majesty wanted to take you, he would not be able to do it. The general would protect you, but you did not. I did know this matter after the fact. But do you know that these Xiyuan generals like us have been chosen by His Majesty from the beginning to control the military power of Xiyuan. Every move of the general is in our eyes. No matter what the general does, it is not easy to hide it, let alone What's more, I have warned the general about deducting military pay, but the general insists on doing so. Don't say that I am not related to the general. Even if you and I are friends, what the general has done is the most benevolent and righteous. "
"I'm right. I won't deduct military pay. How can I make friends with the powerful people in Luoyang?" Bao Hong wanted to shake his head, but found that his head was stuck in the door frame because of too much force just now. He could only wait for Chen Mo to say: "It seems like I'm waiting for this If you have a normal background and want to climb up, you have to do this. I’m right.”
"The general treats you well," Chen Mo reminded.
"He is just a butcher, so what if he is a general?" Bao Hong suddenly stretched out his hand, pulled Chen Mo and said, "Chen Mo, I know you have a good relationship with Brother Benchu, please help me beg him, if the Yuan family If you are willing to help, you can definitely rescue me from the prison. Tell Brother Benchu that as long as the Yuan family is willing to rescue me, Bao Honggan will be a servant of the Yuan family! "
"I will tell you. As for whether Lord Ben Chu agrees, I can't guarantee it." Chen Mo wanted to say something else. Although there was no clear evidence, he felt that the Yuan family was behind Bao Hong's encounter. One portion, just looking at Bao Hong's longing eyes, he didn't say anything in the end, he just nodded in agreement.
It's a good thing to have hope. Maybe for Bao Hong, the Yuan family's help is his last hope, so why should he shatter the last hope in his heart?
"Thank you." Bao Hong looked at Chen Mo with a grateful face and said, "If I can be released from prison, I will be rewarded generously."
"I hope so." Chen Mo picked up the food basket and bowed to Bao Hong, "General, I have to go see an old friend. I'll say goodbye. General, please take good care of me."
"Thank you... thank you so much!!" Bao Hong's voice echoed in the dark prison.
Chen Mo didn't look back, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. How many people in Luoyang were like Bao Hong, who tried their best to cling to the powerful, but in the end they became abandoned sons in the hands of the powerful?
Is Bao Hong wrong?
It can be said that there is, after all, he did not even see the situation clearly and bumped into it. The mistake was his ignorance and not anything else. The so-called rules are not universal in all situations. Otherwise, what is the use of laws? He understood something that he shouldn't have touched when he shouldn't have done it. The most frightening thing is that he himself didn't realize it. Even now, he wants the person who single-handedly brought about his current situation to help him out. It's pitiful. Ridiculous and even more sad.
"How come you are so depressed after being promoted to captain?" In Gao Shun's prison, he helped Chen Mo pour a glass of wine, but he didn't pour it himself. Gao Shun looked at Chen Mo and asked.
"I found that the higher I walked, the more things I thought about, and I was not as happy as I thought before." Chen Mo placed the food in the basket away one by one and sighed.
"This is how life is. God is fair. Whatever you want to gain, you will naturally have to lose something. The trade-off is life." Gao Shun took a sip of water.
"The general always speaks so profoundly." Chen Mo said with a smile.
"Even if you are not imprisoned, your general position is now above mine, and you don't need to call me general anymore." Gao Shun waved his hand.
"We'll talk about it later if we get used to it." Chen Mo said with a smile: "Now that the Xiyuan Army has been established, your Majesty's purpose of containing the general's military power has been achieved, and the importance of the new Xiyuan Army will no longer be that important. After a while, I will try to save the general from prison."
"Be your subordinate?" Gao Shun raised his eyelids and looked at Chen Mo and asked.
"If you are willing, you can naturally ask for it, but if the general is not willing, Mo will not force it. I saved the general from prison because I respect the general as a person and will not use this to force the general to join me. Although Chen Mo is powerful, he still has this credibility. Right?" Chen Mo smiled and shook his head.
Gao Shun nodded. He knew Chen Mo relatively well. When it comes to power, it actually doesn't count, but it is true that he is very utilitarian. But how many people in Luoyang are not utilitarian?
The two stopped talking about this topic. Chen Mo began to tell Gao Shun about his battle in Runan. Gao Shun would give some suggestions. The two continued chatting until the afternoon, before Chen Mo said goodbye and left.
Two updates in the past two days. I have a cold????
