Chapter 20: Da Sinong, Cao Song's Heart Disease

"Hahaha…"

Cao Mansion, the living room in the southwest pavilion.

Cao Song led Cao Shuo to come slowly. Before he could even walk into it, he heard Cao Jie's laughter.

"I said, even if he went out to work together in Tai Academy, he would not be able to fail the exam, Cao Shu... It's good now. Cai Yong bet with this marquis, it's okay if he lost, but he didn't even think about it... He even took the initiative to let the little guy go to the Tai Academy University Department. I think he was convinced..."

Even if he just spoke to a few servants, Cao Jie seemed quite excited...

No wonder, the party-forcing disasters frequently staged by the Eastern Han Dynasty, the eunuchs and the literati group were almost completely in opposition... No matter what? As long as you can surpass the literati, Cao Jie, the leader of the eunuchs, would be very pleased...

Of course, this time... it was expected.

Cao Shuo, a little guy, is familiar with the "The Art of War" that is quite difficult to understand, and can learn from it and present a subtle strategy to fight against the Xianbei.

The Five Classics? How rare is it to defeat him?

When Cao Jie thought of this, he became even more excited...

"Master Cao..." Cao Song pulled Cao Shu into the Southwest Pavilion... He originally planned to give a greeting.

I never thought... Seeing Cao Shuo, Cao Jie walked quickly to him and squatted down.

"Little guy, you're doing well..." Cao Jie put his hand on Cao Shuo's shoulder. "Let those literati and officials see? What about the country? A generation of talents. When Shuoer graduated from the Imperial College, how could they have the position of becoming an official..."

The repeated boasting almost brought Cao Shuo to heaven.

But Xiao Cao Shu didn't seem to be proud at all. When Cao Jie finished speaking, he did not forget to salute respectfully.

"Shuo'er has met Grandpa Cao Jie."

Ouch... he is quick and studious, knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and is like his father Cao Cao in the sky and underground. Cao Jie's heart is almost melted.

Not to mention that he had entered the Imperial Academy this time... Even if he had not entered the Imperial Academy, he had to work hard to get it out of his way... I guess he had not had such a feeling of protecting his son for decades!

"Brother..." Cao Jie looked up at Cao Song, his eyes with a little meaning. "Sometimes, our family really envys you. How great it would be if I had a grandson like this little guy!"

"Mr. Cao, what are you talking about? They are all descendants of our Cao family. In the future, Shuoer wants glory? Can you lack the help of Cao Hou? Speaking of which, can we write two more strokes with the word "Cao"?" Cao Song, who has always been versatile, smiled slightly... These words are meaningful... He wants Cao Jie to help Cao Shu more in the future!

Of course.

This is also a helpless move.

Cao Song now does not have an official title. In his future career, even if he has the intention of helping his grandson Cao Shuo... he is still powerless... Nowadays, the only one who can hold on to him is Cao Jie, the powerful eunuch who is in power.

"Brother, what are you saying? It's just that without your instructions, how can I not help this little guy?"

Cao Jie's eyes looked back at Cao Shu with a faint look, looking careless...

It seemed that he thought of Cai Yong and his group of people coming to take the exam and waved their hands. "Originally, there was no need to be such a trouble to enter the Imperial Academy..." This is true. With the title of Shangshu Ling, all the promotions and transfers of officials in the court were up to him.

Cai Yong wanted to disagree... Cao Jie said with a big stroke of his pen, it would be a matter of changing to the head of the Imperial Academy. At that time, who would dare to stop the little guy Cao Shu from entering school?

"Oh..." I never thought about it, and when I talked about it, Cao Jie sighed.

"It is easy to dismiss Cai Yong, but in this huge world, no one can afford the position of the chief of the Taixue school... It would be fine if there is other positions, but this teaching and educating is of great importance, so this marquis must consider the future of the Han Dynasty!"

Cao Jie paused and stroked Cao Shuo's forehead with his hands. "It's a blessing, this little guy is very proud... Now? He has saved all the civil and military officials from the court to impeach me... But, man, your official title..."

Cao Jie finally reached the point... He did not go to the main door and the back door this time, boasting about Cao Shu was second. His main purpose was to discuss this matter with Cao Song.

The involvement in the case of Empress Song was eliminated... The Cao family also cleared the charges and got rid of the relationship, but the matter of Cao Song's reinstatement became a difficult problem.

During this period, Zhang Rang, who was always planning to seize power, was not idle. He had already made a secret deployment...

Now, the position of Grand Secretary Yuan has fallen to Zhang Wen, who is of the same clan as him. When Cao Jie thought that the future financial power of the empire would be attributed to these two miscellaneous things...

Of course, Cao Jie felt uncomfortable... How could Cao Song feel good?

He was dismissed from office and was unemployed for a year. He fell from the sky to the bottom and was ridiculed. Even the junior of the Yuan family, the child of Yuan Shu, dared to openly provoke... He Cao Song dreamed that he would restore his official position, regain his financial power to the Han Dynasty, and avenge his previous shame... But what? Can it be done?

"Shuo'er, you go down first! I have something to say to your Grandpa Cao Jie..."

Since he mentioned the important matter, Cao Song directly ordered Cao Shu to step down first... Unexpectedly, Cao Jie waved his hand and said, "No need to step down. This little guy is the hope of our Cao family's future. No matter whether it is good or bad, he should listen."

Hmm...

Cao Song looked at Cao Shu and nodded, with a hint of hope in his eyes... the hope for the future of the Cao family.

But soon, his eyes closed slightly and he sighed with a "ah". "Okay... let Shu'er listen." Nodded, Cao Songping stepped down and checked the windows and doors all, and then slowly walked to Cao Jie's side.

"Marquis Cao? Is it really that difficult to deal with?"

The voice was as thin as a gossip... Obviously, Cao Song was unsure of his heart...

"Oh... how difficult it is..." Cao Jie closed his eyes and sighed. "If Zhang hadn't interfered with that cliché, I would have spent some money and some connections... How could it take so much effort to restore your position? But..."

Speaking of this, Cao Jie paused. "It was Zhang Rang... He and Zhang Wen, who was of the same clan, should work together with the ten regular attendants inside and... and to join forces with all officials outside. The position of the Grand Secretary's Agriculture fell on Zhang Wen's head."

"This...what should I do?" Cao Song asked hurriedly.

"You ask me? Who am I going to ask?" Cao Jie spread his hands and looked helpless... "This is a sure thing, I'm afraid there is no room for improvement. To be honest, I don't blame you for this matter, I can only blame me... for underestimating this beast Zhang Rang."

When talking about Zhang Rang, Cao Jie's eyes couldn't stop anger... He raised a wolf with a white-eyed wolf. The ten eunuchs led by Zhang Rang were not grateful, but the thought of snatching power was a basket of people. There was really no good thing!

this…

Cao Jie's words almost sentenced Cao Song to "death punishment"... Grand Secretary Farmer? Grand Secretary Farmer who is in charge of the empire's money! This is a fat man! Really... Is it really... powerless to make the situation come true?

Thinking of this, Cao Song kept shaking his head... His eyes showed his confusion about the future and his despair about the future...

"Forget..." Cao Jie also shook his head. "Let's see if there is any other position in the court... As long as there is an official, even if it is a free position, it is better than a white person..."

Cao Jie was really helpless about this matter. I recalled what a situation he and Cao Song were in charge of people and money. Now... this situation is probably gone forever. What's more, if you lose the help of the position of Grand Secretary Yuan, Cao Jie is likely to be at a disadvantage in the duel with Zhang Rang... In the future, the steps in the palace will become extremely dangerous.

"...Brother, don't blame me, I can only help you here. The future of our Cao family... can only fall on this little guy." Cao Jiaoguang turned to Cao Shu and kept stroking his forehead with his hands.

But at this moment.

"Grandpa Cao Jie...I don't quite understand one thing."

With a slight voice, the quiet Cao Shu spoke... His eyes were wide open, and his pupils were full of curiosity... "Who is the uncle named Zhang Wen now a Grand Secretary? Can he... manage the treasury of the great man?"

Well...this...

Cao Jie was stunned. Xiao Cao Shu's inexplicable words made him a little surprised. Can he manage the treasury of the great man? Does it have anything to do with your grandfather Cao Song's reinstatement?

Wait, it really matters!

...Suddenly, Cao Jie's mind flashed... Because of Cao Shu's prompt, he seemed to think of a brand new point, a point that he and Cao Song both ignored.

But this point? How to use it?

Cao Jie couldn't help but frown...

…Can it be? What did this little guy Cao Shu think of?

Thinking of this, Cao Jie hurriedly squatted down. "Little guy? If you think of anything, just continue to say...You Grandpa Cao Jie, listen to it!"

He spoke very fast and his tone was solemn. Cao Jie's unexpected reaction shocked Cao Song...

Did Cao Jie understand what did he understand from his grandson Cao Shu's words? Is this related to his reinstatement?
