The so-called mansion next to the governor's mansion.
In fact, it was prepared by Cao Ang for the Queen Mother, the Emperor and others. It followed the rules in Dingtao County and was also kept close to Cao Ang's residence.
After all, one is to keep it secret, and the other is to protect the safety of the Queen Mother's family.
Of course, in addition to these, there is an additional small function, which is the mysterious backyard door, which can directly connect the two sides.
To ensure that in case of any emergency, we can communicate with each other, the purpose is still very pure.
"See General!"
Amidst the salutes of the soldiers guarding the gate of the mansion, Cao Ang led Liu Ping into the mansion.
Different from the small villa in Dingtao County, this house adjacent to the prefect's mansion was specially built by Cao Ang.
There are several steps forward and backward.
There are even side rooms on the left and right.
The mansion has pavilions, rockeries, lakes and streams, all these unique scenery are available.
The environment can be said to be quite good.
Seeing the various unique arrangements along the way, Princess Wannian became more and more confused.
Such a display facility cannot be built in a day or two, and it took her two days to inform Cao Ang that she would come to Puyang County.
Therefore, these luxurious and elegant display facilities were not prepared for Liu Ping.
Then it's a little strange.
What is the identity of the people who lived here before, and they are actually worthy of Cao Ang's efforts.
And he's someone he knows well.
This really made her more curious.
…
After half a cup of tea.
Her Royal Highness the Princess, who had followed Cao Ang around to the backyard, had completely cleared up the doubts in her heart.
"Brother!"
"Mother!"
Two consecutive exclamations were enough to show how shocked Liu Ping was at this moment.
Even on weekdays, no matter how calm and resolute she is, she is as cool and elegant as a man.
At this time, I couldn't help but feel frightened.
His eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he felt as if he had seen a ghost. His eyes were no longer as majestic and sharp as before.
Instead, his eyes were rolling up and down like a turbulent sea, making it difficult to calm down for a long time.
His eyes were fixed on the beautiful woman sitting in front of him, as well as the Emperor Liu Bian who also showed some surprise.
And with these two exclamations from her.
The Queen Mother and Liu Bian, who were originally puzzled by Cao Ang's summoning of them, were also filled with surprise at this moment.
"Sister!"
Before the others could speak, Liu Bian rushed over, stood in front of Liu Ping, and then shouted with surprise on his face.
For the emperor, who has a childlike mind, every new person he knows around him is an extremely happy thing.
What's more, the relationship between his sister Liu Ping and him is not bad. Although they are not biological siblings, as the eldest sister, Liu Ping really cares a lot for his younger brother.
…
Liu Ping couldn't help but marvel in her heart.
If Liu Bian hadn't been standing in front of her alive at this moment, his appearance and speech would be no different from the brother she remembered.
I'm afraid that Her Highness the Princess couldn't help but began to wonder if she was in a dream.
According to the information she collected, her brother Liu Bian and his mother, Queen Mother He, should have died at the hands of Dong Zhuo at the end of last year.
This news came from Yuan Shao.
And it has been certified by many parties.
Logically speaking, there should be no lies.
But now the person is standing in front of him alive. Compared with the rumors, this is the ironclad proof.
And just as the princess was thinking about it.
The Queen Mother's soft but slightly powerful voice suddenly came to my ears.
"Ping'er, don't just stand around. Come and sit down and talk. Today is also the day for our family reunion!"
In fact, the relationship between Queen Mother He and Princess Wannian is not necessarily very good, and can even be said to be a bit strange. After all, the two are not biological mother and daughter.
The temper of the Queen Mother.
It is impossible for him to have any feelings for the prince and princess named Liu who are not his biological children.
It can even be said that Liu Ping was born as a girl. Otherwise, if she were a prince, the Queen Mother might not give her a good look at this time.
Maybe even considered an enemy.
Just like Liu Xie who was still in Chang'an at the moment, Queen Mother He wanted to strangle that kid to death.
It's just that outside now, members of the direct lineage of the royal family named Liu need to show unity and closeness, even if there is only Cao Ang at the moment, an outsider who is not an outsider.
…
And Queen Mother He extended an olive branch.
Princess Wannian naturally reciprocated the favor.
He immediately grabbed Liu Bian's arm with one hand and brought the little brother to his seat.
There was no rush to sit down.
But after brewing for only a second or two, his eyes became red, and at the same time, he cried with a slightly choked voice and shouted sincerely.
"Mother, brother, it's so great to see you all today!"
"I thought... I thought..."
At this point, two strings of crystal tears were already flowing down her cheeks.
The words were half swallowed in the throat.
Infected by Her Royal Highness's emotions.
The Queen Mother, the Emperor, and even Tang Ji standing aside were all in tears at this moment.
Mother and daughter He Ying and Liu Ping hugged each other and cried bitterly.
Such a scene.
Cao Ang really looked at it and sighed in his heart. He couldn't help shaking his head and sighing secretly.
They are all masters!
Among the people present, I am afraid that only Liu Bian, a man, was really crying.
The other three women worked together to put on a show, and the tears were so heartfelt.
Look at your acting skills, they are no worse than mine!
…
After all this fuss.
Several people finally calmed down.
The Queen Mother wiped the dried tears around her eyes, and then answered Liu Ping's previous doubts.
"When we were in Luoyang City before, we were almost killed by Thief Dong. The guy was really crazy and wanted to kill us with poisonous wine poison."
"If General Cao hadn't given all his help and risked his life to save our family of three from the fire, Bian'er, Wan'er, I, and I would have been three withered bones in a mass grave outside Luoyang City! "
Following the Queen Mother’s statement.
Princess Wannian couldn't help but nod.
The facts have confirmed her suspicions.
All of this is really Cao Ang's handiwork, and it is also the credit of this pillar of the Han Dynasty.
My previous move to choose Cao Ang and entrust all the money left behind by my father was indeed the right move.
Although in the heart of Her Royal Highness, saving her brother does not mean saving the Han Dynasty.
But at least with such behavior, it proves that Cao Ang is a loyal man who is loyal to the country.
Think about this.
Liu Ping immediately stood up and bowed to Cao Ang.
At the same time, he said sincerely.
"Thank you so much, General Cao, for your help. I will definitely repay my family for your kindness in the future!"
Seeing the princess bowing to him to the end.
Cao Ang hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.
"Your Highness, please come quickly. I am a minister of the Han Dynasty, and my Cao family has received the emperor's favor from generation to generation. The emperor, the queen mother and the imperial concubine are in trouble, how can I remain indifferent?"
"I won't hesitate to sacrifice my life!"
…
After such continuous exchanges.
Cao Ang finally invited the princess back to her seat.
Then he turned his head slightly and looked at the Queen Mother who had been staring at him.
Seeing that the emperor and the imperial concubine were not paying attention.
Cao Ang quietly smiled at the Queen Mother and raised his eyebrows in a funny way.
Yet the response was to him.
But it was just a roll of the eyes from the Queen Mother.
The next second, this plump and beautiful woman suddenly turned her head away and no longer looked at Cao Ang.
If you observe carefully.
It can also be seen that after the Queen Mother turned her head, her nose twitched heavily, and she snorted silently.
See this situation.
Cao Ang couldn't help but laugh secretly.
The Queen Mother's baby is still angry with him!
The root knot lies in Yin's body.
After arriving in Puyang County and Cao Ang took the Yin family into his residence, Diao Chan and others had no idea, except for the Queen Mother who reacted a little violently.
That's not to say he was furious.
Just having trouble with Cao Ang.
One was angry with Cao Ang, who brought her nephew-in-law into the room without consulting him beforehand.
The other is that since they have developed to the point where they are naturally included in the room, there must have been many exchanges before.
But she, He Ying, didn't know anything about it!
This underground job had completely kept her in the dark, how could it not be irritating?
It is for this reason.
So the quarrel has been going on until now, and the Queen Mother often doesn't give Cao Cao a good look.
Several times, Cao Ang went through the back door and entered the Queen Mother's room, but was firmly resisted by the Queen Mother.
If it weren't for Cao Ang who was good at persuading people and explaining things in simple terms, he might not have been able to defeat the Queen Mother.
…
"Brother, although you are in Puyang County now, you are not on the throne of the Son of Heaven."
"But in your words and deeds, you must never lose the majesty of the emperor. In daily life, you must never neglect your studies, the way to deal with others, and the principles of governing the country as a king. You must learn and practice these from time to time."
"If you can regain the throne in the future, these will come in handy, remember?"
Taking advantage of the quarrel between Cao Ang and the Queen Mother, Liu Ping quickly stepped into the role of her sister and began to educate the little emperor.
After Liu Bian heard this.
Although his face was slightly bitter.
But he still nodded vigorously, not daring to refute at all. After all, his sister was considered half of his elders, so how could he not listen to what he said?
And as these words fell into his ears.
The Queen Mother remembered something.
No longer arguing with Cao Ang, he quickly turned his head and asked in a slightly urgent voice.
"General Cao, I asked you before to find a highly respected and talented teacher for Bian'er. I wonder if there is a suitable candidate now?"
Heard such a question.
Princess Wannian also became interested.
A pair of beautiful eyes looking forward to life fell on Cao Ang like autumn water.
…
Choose a teacher for Liu Bian.
It's really not an easy thing.
Although Liu Bian has now lost his position as emperor, he has been demoted to King Hongnong.
But in the hearts of many people who were loyal to the Han Dynasty, he was still the emperor of the Han Dynasty. However, in the hearts of most unaware people, Liu Bian was already a dead man, so he did not cause too much trouble.
And choose teachers for the emperor.
You definitely can’t choose with your eyes closed.
Great talents like Xun Yu and Xun You must be of sufficient skill to teach ten emperors.
But the problem is that they are too young, and it is obvious from their appearance that they are not qualified enough. First of all, the Queen Mother will definitely not be satisfied, and they do not meet the requirement of "high moral character and high respect".
And when such a condition is met.
It has to be someone who can trust you.
Otherwise, if he is someone who has no control over his words, or is secretly leaning towards other forces, he may expose his biggest trump card by talking casually.
This is not worth the gain.
And after meeting the above points.
The most troublesome part is that this highly respected, talented and knowledgeable man is willing to come to us and work here.
This is the biggest headache.
After all, all those old comrades with real skills have a bit of a temper.
No matter how good you are now, if you don't really attract him, he won't come over easily.
Not to mention that Cao Ang is not doing particularly well now. Compared with the real big guys, there is still a gap.
…
certainly.
Even with all the above difficulties.
After much thought, Cao Ang finally decided on a very suitable candidate.
It wasn't just that he was sure of persuading this person.
More importantly, under the guise of choosing a teacher for the emperor, he could obtain a top scholar in the world and then let him work for him.
As a result, Cao Ang's force quickly became famous.
It's just that although the candidates have been considered, they still need the help of the Queen Mother and others, so I haven't found any particularly good opportunity to speak out before.
But Princess Wannian is here at this moment.
The time is more suitable.
"I don't dare to hide it. I already have a candidate. However, if I want to invite this person, there are still difficulties, so I can't take action at the moment."
Cao Ang first used words to settle the matter.
"oh?"
"I don't know who you have chosen. General Cao might as well say so. I can also make some plans for you."
Not only the Queen Mother said so.
Her Royal Highness the Princess also said with the same bold tone: "What the Queen Mother said is that if it is difficult to invite the teacher selected by General Cao, then I can come forward and go on a blind date in person. As a princess, people in the world should still sell me a little bit. of."
Listening to the words of the two women.
Cao Ang's eyes flickered.
Then he spoke eloquently.
"Nowadays, there are famous scholars and scholars in the world who are truly talented and learned. They are either old and retired to the mountains or forests, or they are officials in the court and are robbed by Dong's thieves."
"After careful consideration, those who are highly respected, talented and knowledgeable, and suitable to be teachers of the emperor."
"Only Lu Zhi and Lu Ziqian, who once served as minister, left Luoyang in anger because of his confrontation with the Dong thieves in court, and went to Shanggu County in Youzhou to live in seclusion!"
As soon as this statement came out.
Everyone was immediately stunned.
But after a little shock.
Queen Mother He and Princess Wannian were very excited about it again.
"Hello, Mr. Lu!"
"He is a world-famous scholar. If he can be Bian'er's teacher, he will be a hundred times more qualified!"
