Chapter 5 Depressed and dark hatred of life, silence is better than sound

In the remote corner of Cao Mansion, a ancestral hall seems particularly quiet... Except for the sacrificial solar term, there are few people here.

In the ancestral hall, there are several spiritual cards of ancestors, and the middle is Cao Teng. At the corner, on an inconspicuous tablet, the two small seal characters "Dingshi" are particularly conspicuous.

This is the spiritual card of Cao Cao's biological mother, Cao Song's deceased wife Ding Pei... Cao Song has always felt guilty about the Ding family.

At this moment, Ding Hui was kneeling in front of the spiritual position of his aunt "Ding" and bit her lips hard, and dripping blood was leaking... A low murmur was heard:

"Auntie, Hui'er empathizes with the humiliation you suffered when you married into Cao's mansion... Cao Cao, like... he is not a good person!"

The voice was very low, almost only Ding Hui could hear it himself.

"When my aunt married into the Cao Mansion, she had no children for six years... she was neglected and ridiculed... But now? Cao Cao was even more out of the way than him. It's been ten years, and it's been ten years... her niece's belly still has no movement."

There are three types of unfilial piety, and having no descendants is the greatest... In the great man who has always paid attention to the inheritance of children, there is no child... that means no status. All of this is given by Cao Ang and Cao Shuo's biological mother Liu Chun...

When Ding Hui thought of this, her eyes became even colder.

"Then Liu Chun, a slave I picked up, actually gave birth to three children one after another, which was more glorious than my wife... She... She is not willing to die! And Cao Ang, Cao Shuo... I... I want to raise them with my own hands, and let them die one by one in front of Cao Cao and Cao Song, which makes the Cao family suffer and the Cao family despair. I want to wash away this humiliation for the Ding family."

Ruthless, vicious words...you autobiographical.

What Ding Hui thought of was that Cao Cao loved Liu Chun over the years... and his distantness to himself, and his unscrupulous belly that had not moved for a long time.

Over the years, the sarcasm he has received, and his parents' home was shamed... All of this has completely turned Ding Hui into a blackmail early in the morning.

"Everyone in the world says that the women of our Ding family are guilty and have implicated their husbands and children. But this... these are all the sins of his Cao family!"

Ding Hui's eyes stared at Cao Teng's spirit card. "It's fine. I've kept Cao Ang by his side since I was a child. I can treat him as my own, but Cao Shu... I blame you for looking too much like your mother!"

In fact, Ding Hui did not have so much hatred for Cao Shu. After all, she was still a child, and was innocent, and she would be her adopted son in the future. But before Liu Chun died, she would shout out a sentence that she wanted to repay her kindness for her! Humph, repay her kindness? It is because of this sentence that Ding Hui's hatred for Liu Chun was transferred to Cao Shu without reservation. This is a kind of hatred that gritted her teeth!

...

Ding Hui hated the Cao family not only because of Cao Cao's empathy and love... it can also be traced back to Cao Song of his father and even Cao Teng of his ancestors.

More than 20 years ago, Cao Song, an adopted son of the eunuch, married Ding Pei, a legitimate daughter of the Ding family who is well-known and talented... This made Cao Teng, who was looking forward to holding his grandson, extremely excited...

However, Cao Song was knowledgeable and had a problem with the inheritance of the family line. This also caused rumors that the Ding family woman had no virtue and implicated her husband's children...

But the source of this incident comes from Cao Song...

This guy, I read the book of sages, but I know nothing about human relations such as having children... In his opinion, as long as a man and a woman sleep in the same bed, she doesn't have to move anything, and she will naturally get pregnant...

For this reason, Cao Teng, who knew the truth six years later, almost burst into tears.

It was still asking the imperial physician Wang in the palace to give his personal instructions that made the stupid son Cao Song so surprised that his face turned red and his mouth widened... as if he had opened the door to a new world... In the seventh year of marriage, he gave birth to Cao Cao... and blocked the harsh words of the people to the Ding woman.

Never thought.

When it comes to Ding Hui, it is still a familiar recipe and a familiar taste.

This time it’s not just a problem that my belly has not been moving for ten years.

The "miss" next door, Liu Chun, gave birth to three children, two men and one woman, Cao Ang, Cao Shuo, Cao Yu... The so-called "no comparison" would be harmless. Now, the Ding family was almost embarrassed... Ding Hui couldn't even raise her head.

Resentment has crushed the woman who is called Mei Zhinian... Now she is full of hatred in her heart, her hatred for Liu Chun and Cao Shu who looks very much like a mother. She dreams that one day, she will make Liu Chun completely disappear in front of her eyes!

With a cold snorkeling, Ding Hui's eyes turned cold in vain, and a cold light flashed in her pupils.

...

...

The Cao Mansion was very special on this day. Early in the morning, all the servants were told that they would never enter the southwest pavilion...

The news also reached Cao Shu who had just woken up. Cao Shu suddenly shuddered... He hurriedly put on his clothes and whispered, "Cao Jie is coming!"

In today's world, only Cao Jie and Cao Song will be so persistent about the former residence of Cao Teng and the late emperor Liu Bao, the Southwest Pavilion Courtyard!

When talking about the reason, we have to mention the complex relationship between this eunuch Cao Jie and Cao Song.

…Cao Song is Cao Teng’s adopted son, and Cao Jie is a favorite student cultivated by Cao Teng. It’s not an exaggeration to say that he is a godson... If Cao Jie pays his home, the first thing he must do is to worship Cao Teng’s “godfather”!

You should know that during their careers in the officialdom, this pair of "fucking brothers" reached a certain tacit understanding and consensus. On the one hand, they supported each other inside and outside the palace, and on the other hand, they jointly made money outside the database... and established their small treasury.

Now, Cao Song has been dismissed from the position of Grand Secretary and the Grand Han financial power. The most nervous one is Cao Jie...

This... almost cut off his financial path.

To this end, Cao Jie not only wanted to protect the Cao family, but also supported Cao Song to return to the position of Grand Secretary Agriculture...

Otherwise, if the amount of embezzled money in the treasury is not guaranteed, it will be told to the world...

Of course, how to protect the Cao family? How to help Cao Song restore his position? Cao Jie didn't think of it for a while. At this moment, Cao Shu had to... remind him.

After thinking about this section, Cao Shu sneaked into the southwest pavilion and into the former residence where Cao Teng and the deposed crown prince Liu Bao were exiled... the place where thousands of books were collected.

Fortunately, there is a book called "The Legend of the Spring and Autumn Valley and Liang" there.

...

...

Luoyang City, No. 9 Jinwu Lane... The arrival of Cao Jie seems very grand, with the front and back. Cao Song also attached great importance to it and rushed to the entrance of the alley from afar to greet him personally.

"Harce Cao is here."

A sharp voice of a little eunuch sounded.

Cao Song was slightly stunned. Even though he had been dealing with him for so many years, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous whenever he saw Cao Jie.

After all... this person is a popular and powerful figure today. He is a doctor of the School of Economics to become a great master and a senior farmer, and he is all thanks to his support.

What's more, now in a sensitive period, the case of Empress Song has been reversed again, and Cao Jie has almost become the last life-saving straw that the Cao family can hold tightly.

"Um..." Cao Jie looked shrewd and steadfast.

...He slowly walked to Cao Song, looked at Cao Song first, and couldn't help but shake his head... he seemed a little disappointed.

Cao Song was removed from office for only a year, but the dust was covered with cloth clothes, the calluses in his fingers were faintly visible, and his hair became much grayer... The sleek and secular Grandma Yuan in the past suddenly turned into an old man.

Cao Jie couldn't help but sigh in his heart. "Adversity is like a knife, and it will make people grow old!"

Thinking of this, he waved his hand to signal the others to wait here, and shouted loudly, "Go to visit my godfather first!" When I visited my godfather, I was just visiting Cao Teng... and it was just a reason that Cao Jie wanted to chat with Cao Song privately... and discuss the current dilemma.

"Marty Cao, please come with me..." Cao Song led Cao Jie alone towards the southwest Pavilion... He was a little nervous.

...

"The Master said, Isn't it a saying to learn and practice it from time to time..."

"Zi said...Zi said...Zi said, I can't remember..."

Along the way, there was a loud sound of reading from the pavilion room... It was Cao Song's eldest grandson Cao Ang who was enumerating the book, and the ten-year-old Cao Ang was not skilled in his memorization.

"Cao Sinong, we may have been missing for a long time. Last time we met... Your grandson Cao Ang doesn't seem to be able to recite "The Analects of Confucius" either?" Cao Jie walked while chatting.

"Shame..." Cao Song waved his hand. "I'm also blamed me, I'm not a good man... I'm a waste of Aner's hard work and hard work."

Cao Song's words were making excuses for Cao Ang's stupidity... He used to be a doctor of the Imperial Academy of Classics, but he couldn't teach well? Who could teach well?

Cao Jie naturally could see this level... Shaking his head slightly. "If you talk about intelligence, your son Cao Cao is good. It's a pity that he is too stubborn and does not know how to adapt... In this world, what can you do with just a sense of arrogant spirit?"

Cao Jie's three words are inseparable from slandering Cao Cao. His relationship with Cao Cao is not good. Cao Cao is very close to Qiao Xuan, the representative of scholars, and Cai Yong, and he makes trouble for their eunuch group everywhere... For this reason, Cao Jie has a lot of opinions about Cao Cao... In addition, the relationship between Cao Song and Cao Cao, a father-son couple, is also surprisingly tense.

"Oh, my son Meng De...forget it, let's not mention him." Cao Song waved his hand...

After blurting out these words, the two had already reached the southwest courtyard and saw that there was no one everywhere. Suddenly, Cao Jie stopped...

Suddenly, Cao Song became nervous. "Mr. Cao? Is this?"

"I'm thinking!" Cao Jie narrowed his eyes. "If the Cao family is really implicated... your career is completely over. Your son Cao Cao... Humph, he can't support the hope of the Cao family's rise, as for your grandson..."

Speaking of Cao Song's grandson, Cao Jie couldn't help but think of Cao Ang, who was not smart... and shook his head again. "Forget it, I didn't expect that the descendants of my godfather would fall to such a miserable level, alas..."

Cao Jie's feelings... made Cao Song tremble. Cao Song hurriedly leaned against him and asked, "The case of Queen Song? Is there really no turning point?"
