Chapter 67
The Lord of Liangshan Po wants to give in
The next morning, oh~ the scorching sun was high and shining brightly on the earth.
Cao Cao blinked and was about to wake up. He felt a little short of breath. When he looked down, Yun Niang was wrapped around him like an octopus.
There was a slight movement in my heart. According to Lao Cao's experience, how much a woman loves you, don't look at the good times. At that time, some people are passionate, some are cold, some are generous and heroic, some smile silently... It's just that their natures are different. What is the affection?
The true meaning comes only after you have made love - those who are impatient to take a bath, those who linger on, those who sleep alone in a corner, and those who hang on you like a koala, are often subconscious reflections of inner emotions.
He couldn't help but kiss Yun Niang's smooth forehead.
Yun Niang blinked and woke up. The two looked at each other. Yun Niang thought about all the obsessive behavior last night, and she felt shy and turned away quickly.
Cao Cao glanced at the sky and saw that it was already late, so he couldn't help but get anxious. However, at such a moment, he couldn't be too ruthless, so he hugged Yun Niang for a while, and then she looked much gentler.
Yun Niang leaned into his arms and whispered: "Brother, do you still think I look like the lotus, chrysanthemum, or plum blossom?"
According to Lao Cao's experience, once a man and a woman have friendship on the kang, the first few words after waking up are crucial.
Fortunately, Cao Cao was not only a warrior but also the leader of the warriors (a tribute to Ai Re). How could he go wrong with such details? He smiled sincerely: "What I said yesterday is just one side of a flower. A flower is like a human being, but it is more than one side? Like a lotus.
Although it is cool, it is still charming, although the chrysanthemum is firm, it is also graceful and graceful, and although the plum blossom is quiet, it is also gentle and affectionate. There is no difference between you and these flowers."
Yun Niang was moved by this and hugged Cao Cao tightly.
An hour later, Cao Cao was dressed neatly and came downstairs with a jar of "Yi Qing Zui" in his arms. He saw Shi Xiu drinking tea and waiting downstairs. He was drinking and laughing by himself, looking like he was having endless aftertaste. Cao Cao walked up to him.
After coughing, Shi Xiu realized it and quickly stood up and said: "Ah, brother is up!"
Cao Cao looked up and down and saw that his face was radiant, as if he had opened up the two channels of Ren and Governor. He smiled and said: "Since you have enjoyed yourself, I will go there later."
After saying that, she led Shi Xiu out. Shi Xiu looked back frequently, and from time to time, the sound of windows opening could be heard upstairs in Yiqing.
The two of them went straight to the government office. On the way, they passed an old shop selling soup cakes. The aroma came, and Cao Cao felt hungry. He pulled Shi Xiu into the shop and sat down. He asked the boss to make two servings of soup with enough ingredients.
The soup cakes come.
Jiangzhou soup cake is different from Shandong, but it is made of fresh fish as the soup base, with minced fat mutton added and sprinkled with green garlic. It is extremely fragrant. The two of them ate it in one go and felt that their whole bodies were well. Cao Cao
He touched his chest and said, "I only brought two gold ingots. I used them in Yiqing Building yesterday. You can pay for them."
Shi Xiu was shocked and said, "Before my brother took out the ingot, I took out all the gold and silver on my body. Haven't you seen it?"
Cao Cao stared at him: "Why are you so generous? My two gold ingots are enough for the two of us to hang around for a long time. Don't you know the price?"
Shi Xiu was very aggrieved: "When did you tell me the price?"
When the old man selling soup cakes saw the two of them muttering, he narrowed his eyes and came over: "Two guests, the total amount of the favor is forty-four coins."
Cao Cao glared at Shi Xiu again, stood up, saluted, and said with a smile: "Old man, let's talk about it. I have a unique skill in making pancakes, and I can teach it to you. How about paying for it with your meal?"
The old man took a step back, raised his eyes and shouted: "You will never have to lie in this life. If you make good cakes, how can you not even have money for food?"
Cao Cao kept his smile and was about to say more when he saw Shi Xiu getting up and taking out a purse embroidered with mandarin ducks flying together. He took out a small ingot of one tael and said, "Don't argue with my elder brother. I'll give you this money. You don't have to."
found."
The old man who bought the soup cakes immediately beamed with joy and thanked him repeatedly. However, Cao Cao was furious and pulled Shi Xiu out of the store: "You man, why did you say you have no money and make me lose face?"
Shi Xiu said with a bitter look on her face, full of guilt: "That was the red envelope Miss Manman gave me. I swore to her that I would never spend it."
Cao Cao suddenly became happy: "One tael of silver in the red envelope? Then why does Manman care about you? I heard from brother Zhang Shun that he was also in Yiqing Building back then, but he only received five copper coins in the red envelope."
As the saying goes, people compare themselves to death, and Shi Xiu suddenly became happy: "That's natural. Although Manman and I met for the first time, we have a deep affection for each other. Hey, after spending this money, if we talk about it when we meet in the future, I have to say that I don't
Re-promise.”
Cao Cao said: "Then why do you need to spend it? I don't see that the old man is about to agree to give me the cake recipe?"
Shi Xiudao: "If you ask the eldest brother to talk to someone else in order to make a date with a woman, wouldn't it destroy the loyalty between brothers?"
Cao Cao was greatly moved after hearing this: "Good brother, you are so loyal! In this case, the eldest brother will also teach you to be good. Then Mrs. Manman, the money given to you has no name or surname. When you go back, find a little boy with one tael.
Put the money in the bag. If I ask you later, you will insist that this is it. If you don't believe that she really knows him."
Shi Xiu was overjoyed after hearing this and nodded repeatedly: "Brother is really wise and resourceful! But lying to others is always a helpless move..." After saying that, he took out four or five red envelopes from his arms and held them in his hands, and swore: "Jane
I will starve to death without spending the money given by Zhen, Xiuxiu, Xing'er, Qinxiang, and Lan Xi."
Cao Cao was dumbfounded and said in shock: "The red envelope is the prize for your yellow flowers. Others' yellow flowers are all for the branch, but you have a full pot of stone flowers?" I thought to myself, good guy, you are really worth it for that Yi Qing Zui.
drink!
Shi Xiu looked around, blushed and said, "If it weren't for you, eldest brother, I wouldn't tell anyone else, but we were all drunk last night. When they woke up, they argued for a long time, and they didn't remember who was the first one, so they were alone.
He gave me a bag and asked me to remember them well."
Cao Cao looked at Shi Xiu intently and couldn't help but admire: "Your shameless attitude has the charm of my youth."
The two were chatting and joking all the way, and the government office was already in front of them.
As soon as Cao Cao arrived, a group of brothers and people from Liangshan hurriedly came out to greet him. Pei Xuan said: "Brother, we were busy until dawn last night. The people complained more than a thousand times and killed sixty-five officials below the prefect Cai Dezhang. Brother Wen Bing and I
I have written more than a hundred sheets of charges, but only one Huang Kongmu has not been killed. This man was favored by Zhou Quan Gongming for delaying his sentence. Secondly, no one complained to him. He only received bribes a few times, and it was all committed by Zhou Quan people.
kind."
Huang Wenbing said with a smile: "Huang Kongmu is a wise man. Yang Lin said that he would give him a hundred taels of gold when the matter was completed, but he refused to take it. In the end, he couldn't shirk it, so he exchanged all the coins for copper coins and distributed them to the persecuted people, and he took care of them himself.
I lost my fortune, took my children with me, and left the city early in the morning. I don’t know where I went.”
Cao Cao smiled and said: "This guy is a good boy and knows how to protect himself wisely. Otherwise, if the Song court traces him, he is the only one alive among the civil servants in the city, and it is hard to tell the difference between him and his body. It would be better to hide his name and go to sleep."
At this time, Chao Gai strode up and said: "Brother Wu, we have waited thousands of miles to get here, but the foundation is not solid. If we stay for a long time, we will be in trouble. I want to ask Brother Wu for advice on what to do next."
Li Jun said: "There are thousands of surrendered troops surrounded by the prison camp, and the daily consumption is not small. Is it recruiting surrender or something else? Brother, do you have any arrangements?"
Cao Cao said: "Don't be busy, brother Pei Xuan, you and Wen Bing go to pay a thousand silver to find those down-and-out scholars, copy and bind the pleadings, give them two taels of silver for each volume, a total of five hundred volumes, and distribute one in this city first."
Hundreds, it slowly spreads out the rest of the way home."
Then he said to Li Jun: "Let brothers Luan Tingyu and Ou Peng help you go to the prison camp to select the sergeants who are under thirty or over fifteen years old, homeless and unemployed, and can lift sixty kilograms of stone locks. Ask
They are willing to go to Liangshan with us and live a happy life, and the rest will be released until tomorrow and let them return to their original military camp on their own."
Also called Mu Hong, Meng Kang, Hua Rong said: "Brother Hua Rong, please and I, two brothers, follow Li Jun to the prison camp first, choose a few old soldiers to lead the way, and bring more people."
We opened an equipment warehouse, picked up the best armor and equipment, loaded them all and brought them back."
A group of people took the order and hurried away. Cao Cao then said to Chao Gai: "Let Wu Xuexue take a few brothers, and I, Jiang Jing, Shi Xiu and Deng Fei, go to the treasury to calculate some money and food, and then find
The carts are all loaded, don’t worry about who contributes more, half will be shared equally between you and my family."
Chao Gai was overjoyed when he heard this and said repeatedly: "How to do it!"
Cao Cao laughed and said: "How can we not do it? We live and die side by side, and we are in love. Although I am the captain in Yanggu and you are the king in Liangshan, I only regard you as a brother in life and death. Why should we care about each other so much between brothers?"
"
After hearing this, Chao Gai was full of admiration: "Unexpectedly, a hero like Brother Wu has appeared in the land of Shandong! Brother, I can also tell my heart, if Brother Wu is willing to go to Liangshan, Chao Gai will be the top spot.
Presented."
This is the second time he has said this.
However, Cao Cao still did not respond, and only smiled and said: "Who can predict what will happen in the future? In short, the love between our brothers is as high as the mountains and as deep as the seas. Everything else is trivial."
By the afternoon, everything had been done, and more than a hundred large carts were loaded. The rice grains and copper coins that could not be loaded were all given to the people, and the whole city was filled with cheers.
Cao Cao recalled all his brothers: "I have traveled to Jiangzhou and killed countless dog officials. I have brought evil to the people of Jiangzhou for many years. I have seized countless properties, which will last for several years. The most important thing is to rescue the Song Gongming brothers and bring peace to the world."
Moral and righteous, it can be said that the merits are perfect! There is no use in staying here any longer. I will set off and return to Shandong later!"
All the heroes and minions cheered in unison, cheering in front and behind, and the team moved out like a long queue.
When they heard that the heroes of Liangshan had retired after their successes, the people of Jiangzhou lined the streets to see them off. Many people kowtowed and burned incense. Many people also brought various specialties to eat and stuffed them into everyone's hands. Some of them were thrown directly into the car.
I was so excited and felt that I had never been so satisfied in my life.
Wang Aohu stood on a large cart with stacked money boxes and kept shouting: "I am Wang Ying. I am young and unmarried. If you have a wife who is willing to match, please follow Wang Ying back to the mountains to enjoy her..." All the people in the city were crowded.
Laughing, they all clasped their hands and said, "Dwarf Tiger God Lord, don't worry, the people of Jiangzhou will not disappoint you."
Chao Gai saw that he was too embarrassed, so he turned his sword around and swept the carriage down with the blade, thus stopping the sound.
The brigade slowly walked out of the city gate, not far away, when Shi Xiu suddenly shouted: "Brother..."
Cao Cao followed his finger and looked back, only to see colorful clothes flying on top of the city wall. Yun Niang and a group of beautiful daughters looked down on her like a mortal fairy. Wang Aohu was about to jump up, but was tightly hugged by Song Jiang.
Lao Cao's eyesight was very good, and he had already seen Manman and others who had given Shi Xiu a red envelope, hugging each other and crying uncontrollably. Yun Niang had a stern face, full of coldness. When she saw Cao Cao, she suddenly exerted herself.
With one throw, two large ingots of gold fell straight down from the top of the city in the sunshine, causing many people to rob them.
There is a teaching: Last night, I laughed at the flowers as a metaphor for people, and the rolling carriages and horses crushed the dust. Who would abandon the affection lightly, seeing that the season is approaching late spring.
