49, the wind destroys the show wood dust cloud

Cao Cao, who was drunk and out of control, was indeed happy in his heart. The so-called "major affairs of the country are sacrifices and wars", most of the "famous and instruments" of the Han court were already in his hands. Now his repeated military victory has made him, Cao Sikong's reputation grow day by day, and scholars from all walks of life compete to join.

Xu Chu of Qiao Pei, He Kui of Chen State, Li Tong of Runan, and Du Xi, Zhao Yan, Fan Qin and others who have defected to Cao Cao are full of many scholars, civil officials and military generals, and many others.

Everyone returned home drunk in this banquet where the hosts and guests had fun. Cao Cao also drank a lot of wine, so that after he woke up, it was already bright, and Cao Cao's mind was still a little painful.

Cao Cao only thought it was a normal drinker and didn't care. There were many affairs in the army. In this battle, he went deep into the enemy's territory and attacked Huyang, just to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger and shock Liu Biao of Jingxiang. He was not so arrogant that he thought that with his troops under his command, he could cross the Han River and attack Xiangyang, and earn his contributions in one battle.

The shocking goal has been achieved. He will soon return to the north and conquer several cities in the northern border of Nanyang that have not yet surrendered. He still has a lot of military affairs to deal with, so how can he stop and slack off.

So, after washing up, Cao Cao had eaten some food and planned to deal with the military affairs documents in the military account. However, unexpectedly, the symptoms of the headache became more and more serious. However, after a while, Cao Cao's lips were white, his hands were trembling, and he hugged his head and knocked on his temples from time to time.

Guo Jia and others who were with the army noticed Cao Cao's abnormality. Those who were familiar with him immediately knew that this was Cao Cao's head-on illness.

Guo Jia and others quickly sent their personal soldiers to summon military doctors, while the others helped Cao Cao to the bed, asking the military doctors who were rushing to treat him quickly. The military doctors seemed to be very familiar with the diagnosis and treatment of Cao Cao's head-on disease. The master and apprentice first used the method of ironing and needle stone to relieve Cao Cao's symptoms of headache on the spot. Then they prescribed a prescription and handed it over to others to get medicine and make soup. Finally, they carefully instructed some details that needed attention, and then asked for orders to retreat to another account to standby.

The army was evacuating the camp and retreating, and Cao Cao suddenly had an old trick. This was a big deal. Although the news was not made public in the army, Xiahou, relatives of Cao and other generals from other surnames who were leading troops came to visit him in person.

After Cao Cao patiently told them to be careful on the couch, he waved his hand to let them retreat, leaving only his confidant counselor Guo Jia, who continued to select important military affairs to read to him on the sickbed, so that when Cao Cao was awake, he would solve some important matters together.

While the king and his minister were discussing, another person gently walked into the tent.

Guo Jia looked up and saw that the person was wearing military uniform and was majestic. He showed a young man's heroic spirit between his eyebrows and eyes. He was holding a lacquer plate in his hand, and there was a bowl of steaming medicine soup on it.

"I've seen the young master!"

Guo Jia immediately stood up and saluted. The person who came was Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang. He was already in his prime and was filial and honest. He had been following Cao Cao's command and obeyed his orders and assisted in handling military and political affairs. He was brave and knowledgeable, and was humble in character, which was very popular with Cao Cao.

"My father is ill, and the military affairs are in trouble. Guo Ji is drinking."

Although Cao Ang was unable to salute immediately because he held the medicine, he still nodded humbly and slowly approached Cao Cao's couch.

"This is a distinction between honoring one's duties, so how dare you express your hard work?"

Guo Jia is free and unrestrained by nature, but he is very respectful at this time. Seeing Cao Ang approaching, he quickly put down his Chinese letter, took two steps back, and said to the Cao family father and son.

"Ming Gong is the most important thing in respect of his body and has advanced medicine to treat diseases. Jia retreated and waited for a while and came to report the matter again."

"Yeah, you can leave for the sake of Fengxiao."

Cao Cao on the sickbed waved, Guo Jia understood it, bowed his hand, turned around and walked out of the tent.

The remaining Cao family father and son in the tent, Cao Ang put down the decoction and visited Cao Cao who was ill on the bed. He was respectful and asked softly.

"Sir, are you getting better?"

"The old disease is restored and I can't die."

Seeing Cao Ang, although Cao Cao was still having a headache on the sickbed, he didn't want to show his fragile pathological condition in front of his son, and immediately smiled.

"It's almost autumn and winter, and it's easy for adults to have headaches. Don't work too hard. This time the army won, the southern thieves fled and the withdrawal of troops back to the court can be handed over to your uncles. Don't work hard when you are sick, and take care of your health first and then deal with military affairs."

When Cao Cao heard Cao Ang's dissuasion, he immediately looked stern, and his headache was still there.

"The Han Dynasty is in danger and the world is in a state of chaos. Now it is a time of great struggle. We must fight day and night. How can we delay military and political affairs because of small illness? As a master, if you slacken with illness first and act as a child, and the morale of the army, how can you expect your civil and military personnel to be loyal to them? Although your uncles are loyal and brave, they will be dealing with others in the end. Zi Xiu, it seems that you have not fully understood the books you have been allowed to study by your father!"

Hearing Cao Cao's tone gradually turned stern, the sweat beads on Cao Ang's head suddenly penetrated, he quickly calmed down and said respectfully

"The "Shangzi", "Hanzi", "Six Strategies" and "Sunzi" that the adults gave to him. Whenever there is a gap in the procession, he will hold it and study it with his hands. He never dares to be lazy regardless of day or night. However, his qualifications are dull, and I am afraid that he will not be able to understand the profound meaning of his annotations in a short period of time. Please do not get angry. When the child returns, he will work harder and study it carefully."

"Forget it, you have been working hard since childhood and are far superior to those of your peers. Being a father is not a blame on you. It's just some things. You are already in the year and you will always take on a big task in the future. You will eventually have some basic sense in your heart."

"The boy understands."

"Yeah, medicine!"

After Cao Cao reminded him, Cao Ang hurriedly reached out to help Cao Cao up, then blew the decoction and personally served Cao Cao to take the medicine.

"Sir, the doctor instructs that this decoction should be taken while it is hot so that the head wind disease can be cured quickly!"

Cao Cao nodded, closed his eyes and endured the bitter and thick medicinal soup. He divided it into several times before he finally took the bowl of medicinal soup.

After the bitterness in his mouth gradually faded, Cao Cao, who was frowning, opened his eyes again. He suddenly looked at Cao Ang and said

"Zi Xiu, I just remembered something for my father. In this battle, the army won the victory and captured countless people. The lieutenant general presented a group of singers from Wu. He pityed them for their father and took them back to the mansion with his father. But you also knew the character of your eldest mother. After you go back, you need to help your father and explain it to your eldest mother so that she would not be angry with her father all day long, causing trouble in the mansion, and let outsiders see a joke."

"Father!"

Cao Ang didn't expect that his father suddenly talked about this kind of thing, and his face suddenly became bitter. When he went to war, his mother repeatedly told him that he would supervise his father and not take the opportunity to bring some messy women to the mansion, but he still couldn't stop his father from doing this.

"Okay, that's it."

"Is this Uncle Zilian's idea, or is it the offer from Brother An Min?" Cao Ang asked when he saw Cao Cao wave his hand impatiently.

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, his narrow eyes shone brightly, and he asked

"Why, you want to find them?"

In this matter, Cao Ang refused to show weakness. He Ang said

"My mother's advice before leaving, the child must not forget it at all times. If the adults cannot be stopped this time, he must also make up for the loss and prevent such a thing from happening again."

"You kid..."

Seeing Cao Ang's stubborn appearance, Cao Cao changed his mind and reached out to hold his head, closed his eyes, as if he was enduring the severe pain.

Cao Ang saw Cao Cao's head-on illness, thinking that his father had a headache because of this incident, so he quickly helped Cao Cao lie down again, comforted him and said.

"Sir, it's better to take care of yourself. Let's put aside these things first and talk about them later."

Hearing this, Cao Cao quickly smiled sly on his face. He frowned, nodded, and then said

"Jijiu still has a document that has not been finished just now. Let me tell you about it."

"promise."

Cao Ang did not realize Cao Cao's changes. He knew that his father was worried about national affairs, so he quickly picked up the documents that Guo Jia had put down before, opened them, and started talking to Cao Cao.

"This is a document from Xu Du Shangshutai. It is about the good news of Yan Xing, the Sanfu's Yan Xing quelling the rebels and regaining Yongliang, and the memorial to ask the court to grant official titles."

"Yeah." Cao Cao's face showed a solemn expression when he heard this.

"Sir, do you want to reply to Xu Du right now?"

"No need, Xun Lingjun has his own sense of this matter."

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he became silent. Seeing this, Cao Ang knew that his father had something to do, so he didn't say anything. He sat aside and waited silently for his father to speak.

After a long time, Cao Cao, who came to his senses, saw Cao Ang who was waiting patiently, and couldn't help but smile and said.

"Why don't you read it?"

"The child is worried and disturbed the adults' thinking about countermeasures."

"Hey, what can I do to deal with this? My father just heard that Yan Xing received the two states of Yongliang, and suddenly remembered that he was in Xingyang for a while last year. He was worried that his son was only thirty years old, so he was appointed as a general, which was intimidating Guanxi. In the future, he was extremely angry and difficult to control."

"But now that I think about it, this guy's sharpness is also a good thing. Not only can he block some sharpness for the court, but the trees are also prominent in the forest and the wind will destroy them. Sooner or later, there will be a strong wind to sweep the trees."

Seeing his father smiling, Cao Ang smiled, but he thought about the contents of the document and said worriedly.

"But this person had just pacified Guanzhong and now he has taken Yongliang again. If the court does not curb it, he will be afraid that even the strong wind will be shaken."

"Not necessarily, not necessarily." Cao Cao continued to smile and said

"Some towers seem to have a solid foundation, but in fact they are just a pillar supporting them. Some people are running around for things and crossing dangers across rivers. If they are not careful, they will only be able to feed their children under their knees, but they are all under their command, with a bunch of tigers and wolves. The relatives are deserted and their wives are strong. Then the platform must collapse. I wonder how many people will die in the audience."

Cao Ang felt nervous when he heard this and asked openly

"Did you have some plans?"

"This matter is not urgent. This platform is still useful nowadays. Besides, aren't there anyone else who is anxious to demolish this tower? Let's free up first, capture the tiger in the east, and then slowly turn around to deal with other tigers and wolves."
