Above the hall.
Cao Ang, who had put on clean and tidy clothes again, was sitting comfortably on the cushions, and on his left and right were Dian Wei and Wang Yue.
In front of three people.
On display is a pot of fine wine.
Let's liven up the atmosphere and make the conversation more lively and relaxed.
Secondly, it can be regarded as a celebration for Wang Yue, who officially joined the Cao family. From now on, he will be Cao Ang's subordinate and Dian Wei's colleague.
I drank like this for three rounds.
The distance between them quickly became much closer.
After realizing that the atmosphere is about the same, it is suitable for the next step.
"Crack!"
Cao Ang immediately put down the wine glass in his hand.
Then he said to Wang Yue on the side: "Wenzhuo, you are new here. I should have made you familiar with it before arranging for you to form a shadow guard."
"It's just that we are living in today's troubled times. The world is experiencing unprecedented changes in ancient and modern times. Strengthening is an urgent matter. If you fall behind others one step, you will fall behind ten or a hundred steps in the future."
"So for the most important matter, such as establishing the Shadow Guard, I hope you can start taking care of it as soon as possible and put the frame up in the shortest possible time."
Listen to Cao Ang mention business.
Wang Yue also quickly put down his wine glass.
After listening carefully, he thought for a while, and then hesitantly asked.
"My subordinate understands, but there are still some doubts at the moment. Please give me some advice, General!"
Cao Ang raised his hand.
He signaled Wang Yue to continue speaking.
…
"General, you said that the Shadow Guards are responsible for a total of four tasks. Even if the internal supervision is put aside for the time being, the remaining intelligence, assassination and internal response are all tasks that will take a lot of time to complete."
"I'm afraid it won't be accomplished overnight. I don't dare to guarantee how long it will take to accomplish this."
This is Wang Yue's biggest worry.
After all, General Cao's idea is that the framework is very large. If three routes are laid at the same time, I really don't know how long it will take.
Moreover, Wang Yue believed that he was still a newcomer with little experience. When he first started to form the Shadow Guard, he always had to stumble and waste some time.
Coming and going again, it takes a lot of time.
Maybe I won't be able to do business.
After Cao Ang learned of Wang Yue's concerns.
But he just smiled softly, gestured twice on the table, and then promised.
"Actually, I have said before that intelligence is the main body of the Shadow Guard, and assassinations and internal agents are auxiliary, not the top priority."
"Besides, the latter two are built slowly over time and over time, and they cannot be completed in a hurry."
"So Wenzhuo, you don't have to worry. You should first set up the intelligence affairs and spread the eyes and ears of our Cao family in all directions. That's it!"
The words are spoken.
Wang Yue immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After asking Cao Ang for bamboo slips and ink, he quickly wrote down key information on them to avoid forgetting them.
…
One record is completed.
The brush was set aside.
Wang Yue surrendered his hand to Cao Ang again.
"Then I wonder, General, what is the scope of this intelligence network you want?"
Cao Ang stood up.
He quickly walked to the map that had been hanging in the government office, and then pointed to it and gestured to Wang Yue.
"For now, all you need to do is insert your eyeliner into every corner of the Guandong area, including Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Qingzhou, and Xuzhou. This is the top priority right now."
"After we have established a firm foothold, the next step is to go north to Youzhou, south across the river, and west to Chang'an, including Jingzhou."
"When these places are covered with shadow guards' secret lines and intelligence can be obtained at any time, then the last step is to bring Yizhou, Liangzhou, Jiaozhou and other places under control!"
"Wenzhuo, do you understand this?"
A very complete and organized three-step strategy.
Taking the current foundation of the Cao family, which is Yanzhou as the center, it spreads outward in circles.
Such a strategy can be understood by anyone with a discerning eye.
Wang Yue is no exception.
I still picked up the pen and wrote and drew on the bamboo slips, leading to the second program.
…
After recording the two criteria.
Wang Yue then stood up.
He bowed slightly to Cao Ang, then said with a smile: "General, I have no other doubts. It's just that forming such a large team requires a lot of manpower and money, and I need you, General, to allocate it to me."
Cao Ang nodded slightly.
To engage in intelligence, people and money are indispensable, and this has been the case since ancient times.
After all, engaging in this kind of profession involves some risks. You must have trustworthy people as the backbone and a large amount of money to tie up all levels with benefits.
Just in the face of Wang Yue's request.
Cao Ang did not make specific arrangements.
Instead, he said meaningfully: "Our Cao family lacks everything except money and people."
"But in my opinion, Wenzhuo, your top priority is not to select a large number of people from the military or other parties, but to build your own team first."
After hearing this, Wang Yue was stunned for a moment.
A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through my mind.
He vaguely felt that he had caught something, but the inspiration flashed away and he fell into confusion again.
"General, you mean..."
Cao Ang took a step forward and came to Wang Yue.
Then he put his hands behind his hands and said.
"Those people who serve as the cornerstone of the Shadow Guard and are spread all over the world are always available in the army and military camps. There are simply countless."
"In the future, we can use money to clear the way and directly bribe local people to deliver intelligence to us. These are things that can be done slowly in the future."
"But among the shadow guards, there can't only be people who work from below. There must also be a group of good people who are responsible for delegating responsibility to the lower levels and performing more difficult tasks."
"You need to find such people yourself."
…
Wang Yue understood what Cao Ang meant.
The so-called "find it yourself", where can he find it?
That’s nothing more than a fellow charlatan!
After all, Wang Yue had been wandering around the world in the past. Among all walks of life in the world, the only one he was familiar with was this one.
This is definitely where you pick people.
"General, do you want me to gather some familiar friends to serve as the initial team of Shadow Guards?"
Cao Ang nodded.
"exactly!"
"You must have made a lot of friends when you traveled all over the country in the past. Who among them is pure, loyal, and noble. You must know something about these. Such people are the targets of your selection."
"Gather together those who are willing to serve my Cao family and join the Shadow Guard. From now on, they will be your team."
"Wenzhuo, if you want to get a high-ranking official position and be as stable as Mount Tai in the court, you need someone to support you from behind and someone to lift you up from below."
"Do you understand this?"
Cao Ang finally taught Wang Yue another move.
The old boy's eyes sparkled when he heard this.
Originally, he had no urgent need to gather his colleagues.
But after hearing the last sentence.
Wang Yue had an epiphany on the spot.
My goal is to become a high-ranking official in the future, and even be granted the title of Marquis and General.
It's not that you really stick to the dark side and never come out.
Then what General Cao said is very necessary.
Gather all those friends who have good relationships, are trustworthy, and have good character, and everyone will follow you.
In the future, I will have more say in the officialdom and have a higher status. Isn't it just a joke to want to be a high-ranking official?
…
Think about this.
Wang Yue said nothing and raised his hands to Cao Ang.
"Thank you for your advice, General!"
"My subordinates do have some friends like this. I will write letters to each of them later, inviting them to come and join the general's command and wait for his call together!"
Seeing that Wang Yue was so wise.
Cao Ang was greatly relieved.
As long as there is such a large group of people from the world, headed by Wang Yue, who come to join, the framework of the Shadow Guard can be set up in an instant.
It saves a lot of time in between.
Moreover, in Cao Ang's view, those who are skilled in martial arts are special talents. In terms of influence and importance, they are definitely not as good as the civil and military types, but they still have their unique roles.
Therefore, the more such talents, the better.
Now through Wang Yue alone.
Buy one and get many.
Isn't that wonderful? !
At the same time, this also belongs to Cao Ang, a test for Wang Yue, as long as the old boy can recruit all his close friends.
This is enough to prove his ability and determination to work hard for the Cao family.
Only in this way.
Only then could Cao Ang entrust him with more things.
This is the thought.
He patted Wang Yue on the shoulder.
Cao Ang said with a smile: "Then I will wait for Wen Zhuo's good news. After your friends gather together, you can bring me to meet him."
"At that time, I will issue documents for you and mobilize the corresponding manpower and money."
…
After the matter was settled.
Wang Yue didn't waste any more time.
He said goodbye to Cao Ang and Dian Wei, and then left the government office resolutely, preparing to write letters and send people to deliver them.
And after Wang Yue left.
Dian Wei, who had been silent and just sitting aside as a background, looked slightly relaxed.
After taking a sip of wine.
Dian Wei couldn't help grinning.
"General, this Wang Wenzhuo used to claim to be the Heavenly Sword Immortal, saying that his swordsmanship was as superb as the Heavenly Immortal wielding the sword."
"Of all the colleagues in the martial arts world in the past, no one could surpass him in swordsmanship, so that he could live freely with this name for many years."
"But now, the fake swordsman met the real immortal. His so-called swordsmanship was immediately destroyed and his true colors were exposed!"
Dian Wei said.
While smiling happily.
It seemed that he was the one who cracked Wang Yue's swordsmanship, not Cao Ang.
Dian Wei was so happy to see him.
Cao Ang couldn't help but smile.
Just as the corner of his mouth raised, Cao Ang couldn't help but ask: "A Dian, you said that the fake sword immortal met the real immortal. Could this immortal be referring to me?"
Cao Ang asked casually.
Dian Wei answered seriously.
He nodded very solemnly, and then said "it's natural" on his face.
"Yes, it's you, General!"
…
"When you faced Wang Yue's sharp sword before and remained unscathed, my subordinates were still a little shocked and thought it was incredible."
"But now I have figured it out. General, you are an immortal in the sky and a living god. It is reasonable for you to have all kinds of magical powers."
"Then, no matter how powerful Wang Yue's swordsmanship is, he is just an ordinary person. How can he compare with you?"
Dian Wei spoke without any burden.
Extremely smooth.
Moreover, when Cao Ang looked at his face, he felt that Dian Wei's words came from the sincerity and were not flattery.
That's probably what I was thinking.
Think about this.
Cao Ang couldn't help but laugh.
Thinking about the various rumors in ancient times, apart from the later generations' attachment, most of them came from this.
He could even imagine it.
In the future, he would dominate the world. According to historical records, Cao Ang was the founding emperor of the Wei Dynasty.
When I was born, there were five-colored auspicious clouds covering the sky, and the dazzling golden clouds penetrated the heaven and the earth.
The golden-armored god stands on the head of the cloud holding a decree. There are three thousand female immortals on each side and one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers, accompanied by the sound of immortal music and the formation of immortal drums.
As the golden-armored god threw the decree in his hand into the Cao Mansion, the sound of a baby crying was heard.
Therefore, history proves that he is the reincarnation of an immortal in heaven!
…
Because Dian Wei has a strict tone.
Unless Cao Ang requested it, he never revealed a word to the outside world.
Therefore, Cao Ang did not go out of his way to correct his views. After just chatting with him for a few words, he simply left the government office and returned home.
After having lunch.
Cao Ang, who had never been in the habit of taking a nap, simply put his hands in his sleeves and walked in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air.
Little bits of sunlight, through the heavy branches and leaves, are still scattered on the ground in small pieces.
while walking.
Cao Ang was originally aimless.
Suddenly I have a purpose.
When he turned around, he saw that there was no servant following him, and there was no maid waiting on this road.
Cao Ang immediately stepped towards the backyard.
After passing through a winding and rarely traveled path, we soon came to a wooden door.
This door is locked.
There are high walls blocking both sides.
Ordinary people are not qualified to cross this gate.
But Cao Ang has the key.
…
"Snapped!"
Quickly opening the lock, Cao Ang ducked through the wooden door and appeared in the courtyard on the other side.
This is right next to the Prefect's Mansion, separated only by a courtyard wall. It was the house that Cao Ang originally arranged for the Queen Mother, the Emperor and others to live in.
The current mansion is much larger than the small courtyard in Dingtao County.
So even though Her Royal Highness the Princess moved in later, it didn't seem crowded. On the contrary, everyone had their own courtyard.
This allows Cao Ang to shuttle through the small door.
No need to worry about disturbing others.
After identifying the direction a little bit.
Cao Ang walked away with light steps.
It was considered a good time for him to choose. It was at noon. After lunch, there were not many maids and maids who could wait outside.
With just a little attention and a little avoidance along the way, I arrived at the Queen Mother's residence without any danger.
Looking at the familiar courtyard in front of me.
A look of anticipation flashed in Cao Ang's eyes.
Since his trip to the north, he had not seen the Queen Mother for several months.
To say that I don’t want to, is definitely a lie.
In fact, according to the original plan, he should have passed through the small door and sneaked here quietly yesterday.
It was only because of the appearance of Zhao Ji that the plan was postponed to today.
…
"Hiss...hoo!"
Take a deep breath.
Cao Ang gently knocked on the door.
"come in!"
It was an extremely familiar voice, but it was different from the soft and charming voice that Cao Ang usually heard. This greeting was full of majesty.
It is very in line with the Queen Mother's honor and demeanor.
I think that except in front of Cao Ang, the Queen Mother would transform into a little fox-like woman, in the eyes of others, she was a superior Queen Mother.
"Gah~ bang!"
A set of flowing movements.
Cao Ang was already standing in the house, and he also locked the door from the back.
Just when he was about to speak and surprise the Queen Mother, Queen Mother He's voice came from the bed not far away.
"Is it Jade?"
"Didn't I tell you to rest? Why are you here to serve me again? It's rare for me to be considerate, but you, a little girl, don't know how to cherish it."
While talking.
A creaking sound was heard on the bed.
It seemed that the Queen Mother had turned over.
"That's all, since you are willing to serve me, then come over and serve me."
"Knead my shoulders and massage my body for me. I think I haven't moved much for a long time. I've been feeling sore all over my body recently. Please give me a good massage today."
…
Cao Ang immediately chose to transform into the maid Cuiyu.
He came to the bed silently.
After quietly opening the curtain.
The next second, Cao Ang couldn't help but widen his eyes.
I saw the Queen Mother lying on the bed at this moment.
There was a jade pillow under his head, with his face facing the inside of the bed, half asleep.
He was only wearing a small coat.
Although because he was lying on his stomach, he could only see a few straps used for binding him.
But with Cao Ang's keen eyesight and incomparable rich experience, he judged it instantly.
This should be something that the Queen Mother's baby often wears. I have seen the golden mandarin duck bellyband many times in the past. I still remember that I have passed this thing and carefully played with and tasted the white soft elastic hidden in it.
But all the time.
Cao Ang didn't think that this golden mandarin duck bellyband could play any big role.
I can't hold it in my pocket, I can't hold it in my pocket at all!
Just like now.
Looking from the perspective of Cao Ang standing beside the couch.
The Queen Mother's baby was lying there. There were mostly white soft probes on the left and right sides of her delicate body.
Like running water or jelly, it is overflowing, vying to squeeze out from the gaps in the bellyband, as if they want to breathe the fresh air from the outside world and taste the bright sky.
well!
Is this the legendary Eastern Hemisphere and Western Hemisphere? It’s too delicious!
besides.
The exposed back of the Queen Mother's baby also shines like jade, like a natural sculpture, full of perfection.
It's a pity that the waist below was covered by a light quilt, otherwise Cao Ang would have wanted to take a closer look at those slender thighs that were moist, plump, and full of elastic texture.
…
After some thoughts.
Cao Ang immediately decided to give her a serious massage in accordance with the Queen Mother's instructions.
It was just the moment when he rubbed his palms vigorously to make them warm and pressed them to his shoulders.
The queen mother suddenly opened her eyes.
Then he jumped up with a "swish" sound.
But after discovering that the person standing beside the bed, looking at her with a smile, was the man she had longed for for a long time and longed for day and night.
The shocked look on the Queen Mother's face was replaced by surprise and excitement in an instant.
"ah!"
After screaming uncontrollably.
The Queen Mother jumped directly into Cao Ang's arms. Her hands and feet were like octopuses, clinging to Cao Ang.
Two soft things.
It even gave Cao Ang a heavy blow.
"You heartless young man, you still know how to come to me, hurry up, take off your clothes now!"
"Ah? Didn't you agree on a massage?"
"Why don't you press it? Just press it on me! Give me a good service and clear your acupoints. It's more effective than any massage!"
