Chapter 146 It would be unworthy of a gentleman not to take revenge.
Diaochan, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, is a respectable woman who sacrificed her life to serve her country.
When Dong Zhuo seized power, the world was in chaos. The princes joined forces to attack him, the wise men offered their advice, and the fierce generals risked their lives, but they still failed to eradicate Dong Zhuo. And a weak woman, offering her innocence, dealt with Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo, used a beauty trick to drive a wedge between the two, and finally eliminated Dong Zhuo.
??Wonderful story, respectable woman!
"But in the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, there is no record about Diao Chan.
"It's just that Diao Chan is the title of a female official in the Han Dynasty, not a person's name. Is there really such a strange woman? Cao Peng didn't know.
But Mr. Cai Dongfan, the later author of "Chinese Historical Romance", confirmed the existence of Diao Chan with an extremely positive tone.
Situ Wang Yun's numerous plans failed, so he sent Diao Chan, who had no fists and no courage, to use his voice and color as a spear to kill the culprit. The pink hero is so awesome. He also said: For the purpose of a country, the way is always changing. All the loyal ministers and righteous men in the world, the fierce generals and brave men cannot eliminate Dong Zhuo, but Diao Chan alone can eliminate him. How can we still be pedantic and despise that Shu? Diao Chan, Diao Chan, I love it and value it most!
Mr. Cai Dongfan also did not make it clear whether there was really a woman named Diao Chan who eradicated Dong Zhuo.
But he believed that there was indeed such a strange woman who stepped forward to destroy Dong Zhuo when all the heroes in the world were helpless.
?Perhaps, it is precisely because what the men in the world have not been able to do has been accomplished by a little woman.
Chen Shou, who wrote "Three Kingdoms", either intentionally or unintentionally ignored the existence of such a woman, thinking about the face of a grown man.
Diao Chan, it doesn¡¯t matter whether it¡¯s an official position or a person¡¯s name.
The important thing is that in the long history, there does exist such a strange woman This is enough!
Cao Peng couldn't help but feel in awe, and even more ashamed of the dirty thoughts he had before. You deserve to die for blaspheming a strange woman.
After changing into women's clothes, Qi'er gave Cao Peng a pony bun, put away Cao Peng's clothes, found something to wrap up, and walked out of the bathroom.
At this time, there was no trace of anyone in the courtyard.
On the other hand, in the wing opposite, laughter could be heard from time to time. It seemed that it was Lu Bu's daughter, who was having dinner with Diao Chan.
Cao Peng already knew that the young general who came out to stop Lu Bu in the restaurant that day was the girl who was laughing in the room.
She should be called Lu Lingqi?
"I don't know if she is the girl who was carried on Lu Bu's back in history, trying to break out of the Cao Wei alliance, and gave it to Yuan Shu's son. Listening to her silver bell-like laughter, Cao Peng suddenly felt a conflict: I will definitely repay this kindness sooner or later.
The banquet in the main hall has ended, and the guests have dispersed in groups.
However, the small town was still heavily guarded. Cao Peng followed Qier out of the small town gate and saw two familiar people standing together.
One is Lu Ji who blocked him before.
The other one, who is no stranger, is Liu Bei¡¯s counselor, Sun Qian.
"Qier, do you want to go out?"
Lu Ji said hello from a distance.
However, Qi'er had a straight face, took Cao Peng's hand, and left, leaving Lu Ji very bored.
"Sister Qi'er, it's okay for Lu Ji to harm me, why would you"
"It's not because of that bitch!" Qi'er gritted her teeth and said: "The woman who disliked Junhou was later captured by the Xianbei people and gave birth to that beard. After Junhou rescued her, the woman pestered Junhou, He also asked Hu'er to change his surname to Lu. The eldest lady was also generous and didn't care. After the young lady got married, the woman didn't know what was good or bad and kept competing with the young lady for favor Hu'er was even more ambitious and wanted to inherit the throne. His mother and son are often causing trouble here. The young lady is also a good person and does not want to argue with his mother and son. But the more this happens, the more arrogant his mother and son are. This time they have set such a trap, and their intentions are to be punished. , His heart can be killed!"
Cao Peng heard a general idea, but it was difficult to say anything.
"Hu'er, are you familiar with Liu Yuzhou?"
Liu Bei, now the official worships the pastor of Yuzhou, so people at that time called him Liu Yuzhou.
Qi'er turned his head and glanced at Sun Qian with a look of contempt, "I don't know that, but every time Liu Bei sends someone over, he will give Hu'er a gift. That Sun Gongyou, don't look at his loyal face. Like, actually he's very poisonous."
Cao Peng did not pursue the question any further, but he generally understood the whole story.
There is one more thing that he is not sure about.
Lu Ji, why are you treating him so badly?Disrespect? Putting aside this frame-up, the two didn't seem very friendly when they first met.
"correct!"
Cao Peng suddenly remembered something, "My horse"
"Don't worry, I'll go back and talk to the young lady about the horse, and I'll find a way to return it to you then."
"But¡¡"
"But what?"
"My horse is still in the house, but I am not here, isn't it"
Qier stopped and thought for a moment, then pulled Cao Peng into a clothing store.
After buying another outfit based on Cao Peng's previous attire, Qi'er took Cao Peng around the street in front of the main entrance of the town and entered through a small gate.
Finding a secluded place, Cao Peng changed his clothes.
Qi'er smiled and said, "Mr. Cao, I think it looks better if you pretend to be your daughter's family."
"Such a sentence, if it were anyone else, I would never have turned against Qi'er at that time. As for Cao Peng, he was just a little embarrassed and smiled.
"Sister Qi'er, don't make fun of me again!"
Qi'er chuckled, and as expected she didn't say any more.
However, his attitude towards Cao Peng is somewhat better. At least, Qi'er felt that Cao Peng didn't have that kind of machismo, and he had a gentle temper. He also respected girls. He spoke slowly, and occasionally blushed like a girl.
"Mr. Cao, you haven't left yet?"
Just when Cao Peng was about to say goodbye to Qier, he suddenly heard someone calling him.
Turning around, he saw Cao Xing walking towards him with a group of soldiers.
"Well¡¡"
Before Cao Peng could speak, Cao Xing had already come over.
When he saw Qi'er clearly, he couldn't help but be startled.
Immediately, a strange smile appeared on the face.
"What I'm saying is, your horse is still there, but you're goneit turns out you were having a private meeting with a beautiful woman here."
"Uh, don't get me wrong, General Cao."
"Haha, I didn't misunderstand. I didn't expect you and Miss Qi'er to be very"
Qi'er's face darkened, "General Cao, I still have something to do, you guys can talk about it."
After saying that, she ignored Cao Xing and left along the path.
"General Cao, you really misunderstood."
"Okay, I misunderstood" Cao Xing looked at Qi'er's back with an expression of 'Who are you kidding'? He laughed softly and said: "Mr. Cao, Qi'er was raised by my lord since he was a child, and he treats her as if he were a child. She is her own child. In name, she is a master and servant to the eldest lady, but in fact she is as close as a sister. It¡¯s just that she is cold and cold-blooded, and she has practiced martial arts with the lord, so it is difficult for ordinary people to get in touch with her. "
Cao Peng knew that this matter was getting darker and darker.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out out to say nothing and don't say anything anymore.
¡°Let¡¯s go, I¡¯ll take you out of the city.¡±
"General Cao, you look like you are facing a formidable enemy. What is going on?"
"It's not that nonsensewell, it was the Young Lord who told the Lord that there were thieves making trouble in the city. The Lord ordered an investigation, so the city was heavily guarded. Just now I saw that your horse was still there, but I couldn't see you. People. I thoughthehe, forget it, I'll give it to you."
When Cao Peng and Cao Xing walked out of the city gate again, Lu Ji and Sun Qian were no longer there.
Cao Peng sat astride Zhao Yebai and said goodbye to Cao Xing.
On the way back, he was still thinking about today's incident.
It¡¯s a bit baffling that Lu Ji is hostile to him.
" Then they framed him, or it could be said that it was his mother's fight for favor, but it was a bit sudden and strange to involve him.
Recalling that he just saw Lu Ji and Sun Qian talking together, Cao Peng slightly understood.
Sun Gongyou, are you going to take action now?
Last night, Sun Qian talked with the person named "Zi Ai" in the restaurant, which exposed the close relationship between Liu Bei and Haixi.
In fact, everyone is well aware of this connection.
The Mi family belongs to Liu Bei, and the mastermind behind Haixi Salt Owl is also the Mi family, so Liu Bei's role in it is naturally highlighted. He relied on the Mi family's private salt in exchange for military supplies and weapons, and at the same time maintained a force in Haixi that could influence Xiapi at any time.
In later generations, many people believed that Liu Bei conquered the country by crying.
But as a former fan of Liu Bei, Cao Peng knew very well that Liu Bei could divide the world into three parts and stand on a foothold with Sun Wu and Cao Wei, and it was not just through crying. This person has means and knows how to package himself. Clan members of the Han Dynasty??As Li Zongwu, the later leader of Houheixue, said, Liu Bei, as a descendant of the Liu family, learned the "thickness" of his ancestor Liu Bang to the deepest level, as pure as fire.
"But, as long as you don't mess with me, that's all. If you mess with me
In Cao Peng's eyes, murderous intent loomed.
It would be unkind to not take revenge Sun Qian, since you dare to frame me, I will definitely cut off your lord's financial path.
An idea suddenly appeared in his mind, Cao Peng's eyes couldn't help but narrowed, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
When he returned to the inn, Sun Qian was about to leave.
The carriage and horses were ready. He walked out of the inn. Just as he was about to get on the carriage, he heard someone shouting: "Mr. Gongyou, please stay first."
Turning around, he saw Cao Peng coming over with a smile and cupped his hand towards him.
Sun Qian was startled at first and quickly returned the gift.
"Mr. Cao!"
"Haha, does Mr. Gongyou recognize me?"
"This the young master was asked to toast three glasses of wine by Marquis Wen at Marquis Wen's banquet. How could Sun Qian not know about it?"
Cao Peng smiled brightly, "I see, I, Mr. Gongyou, also know my nickname, and I was secretly happy just now."
"Well¡¡"
Although Sun Qian was clever and eloquent, he didn't know how to answer Cao Peng's words.
This guy is so shameless!
You are a small soldier, are you worthy of my acquaintance?
But here¡¯s the etiquette, so to speak, don¡¯t hit the smiling person. Sun Qian really didn¡¯t know how to speak.
"Mr. Gongyou, are you leaving?"
"Oh, exactly."
"Be careful on the road and don't have any accidents."
Sun Qian couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart. Cao Peng's words sounded full of concern, but they didn't sound right.
Could it be that he knew something?
Looking at Cao Peng¡¯s childish face, Sun Qian was a little undecided.
"If you see Liu Yuzhou, I hope you can congratulate him on my behalf."
"Congratulations?"
"I heard that Liu Yuzhou obtained the troops of Yang Feng and Han Siam. Now that the troops and horses are strong, isn't it worthy of congratulations?"
"This Mr. Cao is joking."
"Really?" Cao Peng chuckled, "Mr. Gongyou, please take care of yourself."
After saying that, he returned to the inn.
Sun Qian stood beside the carriage, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Cao Peng¡¯s words sounded like they were deeply affectionate, but upon reflection, they seemed to contain hidden secrets. What does this guy mean? Is he congratulating me, ormaybe, my previous actions were a bit reckless, and this guy noticed it?
The more I think about it, the more awkward I feel.
After Sun Qian got on the carriage, he was worried.
"Hurry, let's go back to Xiaopei immediately, don't delay the journey."
"Afu, I just saw you and Liu Bei's envoy talking at the door. Do you know him?"
"do not know!"
¡°I don¡¯t know him, why did you talk so much to him?¡±
Sitting in the living room across the courtyard, Xu Yi and Dianman pulled Cao Peng and asked.
Cao Peng replied: "It's just a small talk, just for the sake of face."
"Oh!" Dianman nodded and suddenly lowered his voice: "You don't need to be polite to him. Listen to my father, Liu Xuande is a terrible person."
"Yeah?"
Noriman nodded vigorously, indicating that what he said was true.
Cao Peng is not surprised: people like Dian Wei like to go straight.
Liu Bei may be good at packaging himself, but in the eyes of people like Dian Wei, he may not be able to please him, and may even have counterproductive effects.
"Whatever, let's get ready, it's time to go back."
Dianman and Xu Yi quickly agreed, and the three of them ordered to go down and let the servants prepare their luggage.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of people shouting and neighing outside the post house. The post officer hurriedly followed him. When he saw Cao Peng, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Mr. Cao, there is someone looking for you outside."
"oh?"
Cao Peng was a little strange, so he quickly walked out of the post station with the post officer.
I saw a group of sergeants parked on the long street outside the inn door.
These sergeants are obviously different from the sergeants Cao Peng saw before. All of them were silent and stood quietly on the long street, carrying a strong evil aura.
"Mr. Cao, let's meet again."?! "
When Cao Xing saw Cao Peng, he smiled and waved hello.
"You still said you have nothing to do with Miss Qi'er?"
"What's wrong?"
"Haha, are these the soldiers and horses that Miss Qi'er asked for for you?"
"ah!"
Cao Peng opened his mouth, looked at the soldiers in front of him, and then at Cao Xing.
"The young lady said that Haixi is in chaos right now. It will definitely not be easy for you as a child to work there, so I just asked the Lord to help you. Well, this is a soldier taken from Wen Yuan's subordinates. , they can go to Haixi County with youHao Zhao!"
"The end is here!"
A young man walked out from among the sergeants.
Judging from his age, he is probably sixteen or seventeen years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a strong back and strong waist.
From the accent, it sounds like he is from the North.
Cao Peng couldn't tell where it was.
"From now on, you will follow Mr. Cao."
Hao Zhao had no expression on his face and cupped his hands and said: "I will obey your order I will meet Mr. Cao."
"Ah, no courtesy!"
Cao Peng is still a little dizzy at the moment, but generally, he seems to understand the mystery.
It¡¯s not Qi¡¯er!
He and Qier don¡¯t have such a deep friendship yet.
"Your Majesty, do you have any instructions?"
"The Lord doesn't have any instructions, but the young lady said that you should do your work well. If you succeed in the future, don't forget the kindness of the Lord."
No, it¡¯s not the kindness of the king!
It¡¯s her kindness
Cao Peng seemed to understand a little bit.
Diao Chanoh, let's call her Diao Chan.
She hopes that she can help Lu Bu one day in the future!
¡° Let¡¯s not ask whether Diao Chan has selfish motives. But no matter what, these sergeants in front of him are undoubtedly a help in times of need for Cao Peng.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Please report back to me, little madam, just say Cao Peng. I will never forget today's kindness!"
