Zhang Rang said, "I will arrange the meeting between you and His Majesty tonight, please don't worry."
Find someone to write a letter, and I'll ask Cao Mengde to take someone to Wancheng and bring your family to Kyoto.
With Cao Mengde taking action, your family will be safe all the way.
With your beauty, after you get along with His Majesty tonight, His Majesty will give your family a house and a title tomorrow.
~~
He Lianfang was greatly relieved, her face was full of joy and excitement.
She immediately took out a piece of gold and asked someone to write a letter to her family for her, and stated in the letter that He Feng would be betrothed to Zhang Rang's son Zhang Can.
Then, she came back and handed the letter to Zhang Rang.
She also gave all the remaining gold to Zhang Rang.
Zhang Rang refused to accept her gold.
He is optimistic about her future.
He said, Miss He, I don't want your money. From now on, you will be the queen. You have to help me, repay me, use me more, and speak kindly for me in front of His Majesty.
~~
He Lian nodded frequently and burst into tears.
Now, she promised Zhang Rang anything.
As long as Zhang Rang can make the emperor turn over the cards tonight, he will turn over her name.
She knew that she was the most beautiful woman in the harem.
As long as the emperor favors her for one night, the emperor will definitely come to see her every night.
From now on, she has everything.
Her dream of becoming a queen will surely come true.
~~
Zhang Rang immediately left the palace, came to Cao Mansion, and found Cao Cao.
He asked Cao Cao to find a secret room, saying that he had something important to discuss with Cao Cao.
Cao Cao did as he was told.
Because Zhang Rang was now a popular figure in front of the emperor, Cao Cao did not dare to offend him.
At least I dare not offend him openly.
Cao Cao also guessed that Zhang Rang came to him in person and was so mysterious. There must be something important to discuss, and he might need to contribute.
~~
The two came to the secret room.
Zhang Rang said that he had said a lot of good things for Cao Cao in front of His Majesty.
Your Majesty can also remember Cao Cao's name and will definitely use Cao Cao again in the future.
He hoped that Cao Cao would temporarily make achievements in his post as captain of the northern part of Luoyang.
From now on, he will definitely say more good things about Cao Cao in front of His Majesty, and ask Cao Cao to make his official bigger from now on.
He encouraged Cao Cao well.
Cao Cao bowed to him to express his gratitude.
~~
Then, Zhang Rang changed his tone and asked Cao Cao to take some people to Wancheng tomorrow to bring He Lian's family to Kyoto.
He said he would arrange for His Majesty to favor He Lian tonight.
Tomorrow, He Lian will have everything.
In the future, when He Lian has a position in the palace, he will also speak for you.
~~
Cao Cao nodded, not daring to say anything.
He just nodded, and when he finally saw Zhang Rang getting up to leave, Cao Cao said: "Brother Zhang, please rest assured that I will bring the He family to Kyoto safely and set off early tomorrow morning."
Zhang Rang then stood up and said goodbye, saying that He Feng was his daughter-in-law and asked Cao Cao to protect her carefully.
On this trip to Wancheng, he will also ask his son Zhang Can to go with him and carry the heavy money directly to the He family.
He asked his son Zhang Can to meet Cao Cao at Cao Mansion early tomorrow morning.
~~
Cao Cao nodded, but his heart felt cold.
He still wants to get He Feng!
However, when Zhang Rang said this, Cao Cao did not dare to think too much.
Because He Feng's situation is different from He Lian's.
~~
He Lian is in the palace.
There were many beauties in the palace, and the emperor did not know which one was the girl.
When ordinary people marry a daughter-in-law, they have to verify it after the wedding. See if the bride last night is a girl?
If not, that would be tragic.
~~
Cao Cao didn't want to make He Feng miserable for the rest of his life.
In order not to offend Zhang Rang, Cao Cao decided to abandon He Feng.
No matter how beautiful He Feng was, he decided to give up.
~~
However, Cao Cao now wants to imitate Yuan Shao, secretly recruiting soldiers and raising a group of people.
But he has no money!
So, he reported to his father Cao Song and said that he wanted to build a tiger and leopard cavalry, and asked his father to support him with some money and food.
When Cao Song heard this, he was so angry that smoke erupted from his seven holes.
He yelled: "You traitor, do you want your life? I thought you would behave better after becoming a father. Now it seems that you are still short-tempered. Look at you, how do you look like a father? Get out!"
Cao Cao walked away dejectedly.
Still, he didn't give up.
It was his dream to command millions of troops and build a Tiger and Leopard Cavalry that could gallop like the wind and be invincible.
So Cao Cao came to Liu Yan's room again and asked Liu Yan to lend him some money.
He promised Liu Yan that he would repay the money twice as much in the future.
~~
Although Liu Yan was called his wife by Cao Cao.
However, she actually has no title.
Therefore, she takes money very seriously.
She was afraid that she would be kicked out of the Cao family one day.
She knows she is beautiful, but one day she will grow old.
Now that I have given birth to a son, I am treated very well in the Cao family.
But what about the future?
What if Mrs. Ding also gave birth to a son?
In the future, will Cao Cao take concubines again?
~~
Therefore, Liu Yan was furious when she saw Cao Cao reaching out to her for money.
She said angrily: "You spend your money so generously, a hundred pieces of gold at every turn. In order to marry Mrs. Ding, you probably spent more than a hundred pieces of gold, right? Humph! Are you using my money to find a woman? You have to marry a wife again." Concubine? Who do you think I am? Get lost! I don’t want to see you again. Anyway, I have a son, so you can do whatever you like and don’t bother me."
~~
Cao Cao left in despair again.
He walked towards Ding Hui's room again and reached out to knock on the door.
But, no knock.
He lowered his hand again.
After being unable to get money one after another and losing face one after another, he hesitated to ask Mrs. Ding for money.
He turned around and left again, thinking that women are like this, Liu Yan's mother is more valuable than her son, and Mrs. Ding is worried about having no children. Going to Mrs. Ding to ask for money is undoubtedly a scolding.
never mind!
~~
Cao Cao walked a few steps and thought again: If I go to Wancheng tomorrow, I have to bring money with me.
What to do if you have no money?
Oh, by the way, steal the eunuch's money.
The eunuchs plundered and extorted money, and indulged in arrogance and greed.
Zhang Rang, in particular, had a great reputation for colluding with powerful people and accepting bribes.
Nowadays, guests requesting to see Zhang Rang often park hundreds or even thousands of carriages at the gate of Zhang Rang's house.
Yeah!
By stealing Zhang Rang's money, wouldn't I have the money to form the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?
~~
So, at midnight, Cao Cao wore a black shirt and a face mask, took several large cloth bags, and took a handful of arrows from the arsenal next to the practice ground at home.
He broke the arrows and used only the clusters as hidden weapons.
Then, he took the broken arrows to the side of the practice field, gathered his inner strength into his palms, and struck them in the air. A ball of flame burned towards the broken arrows.
The broken arrows caught fire and were burned by him.
Then, he used Ladder Cloud Zong to fly away from Cao's Mansion and came to the street. He used Lingbo Weibu to avoid the patrols and arrived at Zhang's Mansion.
Because Zhang Rang was favored, he actually mobilized some Yulin guards to protect his family.
Quite brave.
However, it is estimated that when this matter is reported to the emperor, the emperor will smile and remain silent.
Because the emperor favored Zhang Rang very much, he often said, "Zhang Changshi is my father and Zhao Zhong is my mother."
~~
However, this did not trouble Cao Cao.
He used Ladder Cloud Zong, flew in the air, and sneaked into Zhang's house. He also used Lingbo Weibu to sneak to Zhang Rang's bedroom, quietly opened the door of Zhang Rang's bedroom, and ducked in.
Because Zhang Rang told him that Zhang Rang would arrange for the emperor to favor He Lian tonight, so Zhang Rang would definitely not be in the mansion tonight.
Zhang Rang, who regards wealth as his life, will definitely put most of the money collected in his bedroom.
Perhaps, Zhang Rang's bedroom also has a secret passage and a cellar.
~~
With a pair of night vision, Cao Cao found the cellar in Zhang Rang's bedroom.
He carefully searched for the traps in the cellar and pulled out the Heavenly Sword to protect himself, being extremely cautious. Then he went into the cellar.
Inside were actually gleaming gold bricks, which lined the cabinets on the surrounding walls.
He put away the sword, coiled it around his waist, took off the cloth bag, filled two big cloth bags with gold bricks, and tied them to his back.
Then, he took two more boxes of gold, held one box in his arms, left his right hand free, and held an arrow cluster for self-defense.
After that, he carefully left the cellar, moved the mechanism, closed the cellar door, quietly opened Zhang Rang's bedroom door with his foot, ducked out, and quietly opened Zhang Rang's bedroom door with his foot.
Then, he lifted his feet into the air.
He used Ladder Cloud Zong and teleported 20 steps in the air, then teleported 20 steps in the air, then teleported another 20 steps, and then floated out of Zhang Mansion.
He landed on another nearby mansion with his feet, then raised his feet a little bit, jumped up, and teleported 20 steps in the air, and then teleported 20 steps in the air, and so on, teleporting 20 steps in the air non-stop, and flew back to Cao Cao. Mansion, returned to his room.
He hid two large bags of gold bricks and two boxes of gold under the bed.
Then, he took out several large cloth bags and some ropes, flew back to Zhang's Mansion, took an opportunity to sneak back to Zhang Rang's bedroom, took out several large cloth bags of gold bricks and several boxes of gold, and returned to Cao's Mansion. .
Then, he continued to move bricks to Zhang Rang's house, running back and forth in this way, and moved two-thirds of the money Zhang Rang had hidden in the cellar of his bedroom. He stopped only when it got dark.
~~
After dawn, Cao Cao came to the training ground and told the brothers Cao Hong, Xiahoudun, Xia Xiuyuan, and Xiahouen who were practicing sword and boxing about his idea of forming the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Brothers Cao Hong and Xiahou both agreed with Cao Cao's idea and suggested that all the horses must be used to form the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. There is not necessarily a large number of people for the time being. Some martial arts masters can be recruited in the name of looking after the family and the hospital.
Cao Cao immediately gave a hundred gold to the Xiahou brothers and asked them to leave Kyoto after breakfast and find ways to find some reliable tribesmen to serve as his tiger and leopard riders. They should be good at martial arts and loyal, and they should buy some good war horses. Tentatively, eighteen riders.
Brother Xiahou was in high spirits and did not eat breakfast. He immediately took the money, rode out of Cao's house, ran out of Kyoto, and went back to his hometown in Qiao County to find someone.
When you have money, you can do things easily, buy good horses, and find martial arts masters.
Especially their fellow apprentices at Thunder Sword Sect.
~~
Cao Cao took another hundred gold and gave it to Cao Hong, asking Cao Hong to keep it for future travel expenses. At the same time, he asked Cao Hong to find Ding Kui and rent the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau to ensure the safety of the He family through the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau.
Then, Cao Cao rode on the red rabbit horse, joined Zhang Can and several Yulin guards, and flew away from the capital to Wancheng. He came to He Zhen's house and introduced Zhang Can.
