Chapter 1321 A lot of gift-giving
Cao Shu stayed in the palace all morning.
Liu Xie listened to him telling the process of attacking the Huns with relish.
After listening to Cao Shu's description of the fight with the Huns, Liu Xie said in admiration: "Since the Han Dynasty established its dynasty, it has suffered from the Huns' chaos. When Li Jue and Guo Si rebelled, the Huns took the opportunity to enter the Central Plains. I also heard that they were burning, killing, looting and looting in the Central Plains. I didn't expect that Zirong went to Hetao this time and returned all the things they did. Not only that, he could force the Huns to marry."
Before Cao Shuo could respond, Liu Xie continued to ask, "I wonder which young master Cao planned to let the Xiongnu marry you?"
"Go back to Your Majesty." Cao Shuo said: "The person who is close to the Xiongnu is my third brother Cao Zhang."
"Cao Zhang." Liu Xie pinched his chin and thought for a while and asked, "Is it born to Mrs. Bian?"
"That's right." Cao Shuo said: "I didn't expect that His Majesty was very familiar with the Cao brothers."
"I can't say that there are more than 20 young masters under Cao Gong's knees. At least most of them are remembered." Liu Xie said: "If it weren't for the Cao family, the Han Dynasty would have long fallen into the hands of thieves. If I didn't remember the Cao family, wouldn't I have become this emperor in vain?"
"Your Majesty is so serious." Cao Shuo smiled and said, "Although I have more than 20 brothers, except for me and Zihuan, the other brothers are still young. Cao Zhang, who is the second marriage to the Xiongnu, is only twelve years old, and Cao Zheng, who is the first marriage to the Yuan Tan family, is only ten years old. Letting them marry is just a temporary solution. For the Han Dynasty, the Cao family had to do so."
Liu Xie sighed softly and said, "The Cao family is full of loyal and martyrs, but unfortunately the world criticized the Cao family a lot."
"Have your Majesty heard of something?" Cao Shu asked.
After a moment of froze, he realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said. Liu Xie pretended to be calm and said, "Although I am in the palace, I can hear some things outside. Zi Rong made so many contributions, but there are not many people who say bad things about you."
"I also know that there are many people who say bad things about me." Cao Shuo curled his lips indifferently and said to Liu Xie: "They said theirs, and I will do what I should do. If everything is based on the ideas of those people, should I still correct the Han Dynasty? Should I still unify the world for His Majesty?"
"Zirong is indeed a loyal and righteous man." Liu Xie said: "This time I failed to be a general. My heart felt like I was blocked by something, and I was not strong all over."
"Your Majesty doesn't need to take it to your heart." Cao Shuo said: "Your Majesty just keep the position of the general for me. It will not be too late for you to reward me when I can become the general."
"Since Zirong said that, I will no longer insist." Liu Xie said: "In the future, don't forget to come to my place and sit down."
Having said that, Cao Shu knew that there was no need to continue talking.
He bowed to Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, I still have many matters to deal with. I will take a leave first. Please take care of your wishes."
"I send you my son to Rong!" Liu Xie stood up and personally sent Cao Shu out of the hall.
When he arrived outside the hall gate, Cao Shu bowed to Liu Xie again and left while stepping on Cai Ji and others.
After walking out of the palace, Cai Ji said to Cao Shuo: "Every time your Majesty meets the prince, I don't feel like an emperor."
Looking at Cai Ji, Cao Shu asked, "What do you think the emperor should be like?"
"I can't say it either." Cai Ji replied, "But I just feel that Your Majesty is too humble in front of the young master. How can you look like a little bit of the Nine Five?"
"If you live in the palace like him, even though you have the intention of restoring the great man, you don't have half a soldier in your hand, and you can only rely on others, you will understand that he doesn't want to do this to me, but has to do this to me." Cao Shu said: "So you still have to have real power to be a human being."
Cai Ji knew what Cao Shu said, but he didn't understand it.
Although he still didn't understand it very much, he stopped asking and followed Cao Shu back to his residence.
After a while, Cai Ji, who was guarding outside, ran to Cao Shuo's room.
"Young Master." Standing at the door, Cai Ji said, "When everyone in Xu Du heard that the young master was named king, they came to congratulate him. How dare you ask the young master, what are you going to do?"
"Everyone?" Cao Shuo asked, "What are they?"
"Too many." Cai Ji said: "Not only are the officials from Xudu, but even the gentry in the city came to congratulate him. The outer courtyard was already full of people."
"How many people are there?" Cao Shuo asked again.
"There are at least three or five hundred." Cai Ji said: "The outer courtyard is full of gifts they have sent. I have given a few people to send them to the backyard. Should the young master check it out?"
"Which people's job was sent to the backyard?" Cao Shu grinned and asked with a smile.
"I have sent my husband Guo, Xun, Cheng and others to the backyard." Cai Ji said: "There are also the eldest lady, Mrs. Bian's..."
"Mrs. Bian's also sent it to the backyard?" Cao Shu frowned slightly and asked Cai Ji.
Seeing that Cao Shu had a bad face, Cai Ji asked, "Do you want to take the things she sent to the outer courtyard?"
"I've been sent to the inner courtyard and taken to the outer courtyard. Wouldn't it be embarrassing?" Cao Shu said: "It's okay to send to the inner courtyard. Some things have not yet surfaced, so the scene must be able to pass."
Cai Ji didn't dare to ask Cao Shu again if he wanted to see the gifts, and stood beside him with his head down.
Cao Shuo asked him, "What did the eldest lady send?"
"The gifts sent by the eldest lady are very strange." Cai Ji said: "What she asked the maid to send is just a box of dried fruit."
"It's still my mother who understands me." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "I will wrap all these dried fruits for me. When I return to Shouchun, I will carry them with me. As for other gifts, just ask Lingyun Pavilion to send them to Shouchun."
"Don't worry, my master, I'll make arrangements now." Cai Ji replied.
Cao Shu stood up: "When the guests disperse, they will arrange those things. The most important thing now is to go to Lingyun Pavilion in person and tell them that tonight's banquet is not allowed to be booked out. Whether it is the private room or the lobby, I will book all of them to entertain guests."
"I understand." Cai Ji responded, and then asked Cao Shu: "Do you want it..."
"Women are a major feature of Lingyun Pavilion. Since guests have been invited, there is a reason why not all of them are in place." Cao Shu said: "But I only provide them with hugs. If I take them away, they have to pay for them."
"I understand what the young master means." Cai Ji responded and said to Cao Shuo: "I'll go to Lingyun Pavilion now."
After Cai Ji left, Cao Shu walked out of the room and took several guards to the front yard.
