In the study, Mrs. Zhang was serving Cao Ang for tea, when another person broke in.
Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao.
As soon as he entered the house, Guo Jia saw Cao Ang lying ill in bed and asked with concern:
"Zixiu, how are your health? Is there anything serious?"
Guo Jia was extremely intelligent and won the trust of Cao Cheng, who appointed him as Cao Ang's teacher.
However, Guo Jia had been indulging in wine and sex for many years, which made him weak and his eye sockets sunken.
When Cao Ang saw the teacher coming, he struggled to get up and said:
"Thank you, sir. The student is fine. He is just slightly injured. He will be fine after a few days of rest."
Cao Ang was smart and intelligent, and was deeply loved by Guo Jia. Seeing that Cao Ang was fine, he let out a long sigh, then sat down on the bedside and said:
"I just came down from the court. I listened to the words of the Prime Minister and praised the young master Wancheng for his wonderful plan, which led to a complete victory for our army. The emperor was very happy and worshiped the young master as the king. I believe that within a few days, the imperial edict and seal will be fulfilled. It will be delivered to the house."
Hearing the sound, Cao Ang was immediately startled.
Zhijinwu, this official position is not small.
Now Cao Ang is just a lieutenant general in name.
This is how you reach the sky in one step, rising directly to Zhijinwu?
Guo Jia smiled and said with emotion:
"Zhi Jinwu is one of the Nine Qings. Your Majesty is the Third Duke, and your son is the Nine Qings. Such a family is truly unique throughout history. Even the fourth and third Duke of the Yuan family in Hebei cannot compare to the prosperity of your Cao family today. .”
Cao Ang lowered his head and thought for a moment, then hurriedly said:
"Sir, don't you feel...there's nothing wrong with this?"
Guo Jia chuckled and said:
"Young Master must not know what your Majesty means. Today at the court meeting, Your Majesty was in the court hall. He highly praised the Young Master's clever plan and argued hard to win the position of Jinwu for the Young Master."
Cao Ang shook his head and said doubtfully:
"I have always joined the army under my father's banner, and now I am taking up an official position in the imperial court. What does this mean? What is the use of it?"
At this time, Guo Jiacai stopped smiling and said solemnly:
"The Prime Minister's intention is that the battle in Wancheng is enough to prove that the young master is thoughtful and can take charge of his own affairs. This is why he strives for the position of Jinwu in the court. The prime minister's intention is self-evident. He wants the young master to pay more attention to the affairs of the court in the future. thing."
Cao Ang remained silent.
Guo Jia continued:
"The Prime Minister has been leading troops away all year round. Now that he has achieved great success, he cannot rest assured that he will be in the court. Public opinion in the world is fierce. It is inevitable that some people will secretly slander him. Now that the Young Master is appointed as Jinwu, it is precisely to serve as a stabilizing needle in the Prime Minister's heart!"
Seeing Cao Ang lowering his head and saying nothing, Guo Jia simply made his words clear, quietly moved closer to Cao Ang, whispered in his ear, and said:
"The Prime Minister's move is to seek an immortal foundation for the Cao family. The Prime Minister is in charge of the outside world, and the Young Master is in charge of the inside. I hope the Young Master understands this."
Hearing this, Cao Ang suddenly realized.
As the eldest son, Cao Ang has always been the greatest confidence in Cao Cao's heart.
If the eldest son Cao Ang dies, Cao Cao will have no one to inherit his ambitions and his vigor will be dampened in half.
The reason why Cao Cao in history never had any intention of proclaiming himself emperor was simply because his eldest son Cao Ang died, which made Cao Cao disheartened.
At that time, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were too young, unable to control the civil servants and generals of the dynasty, and had no successors. As a result, Cao Cao dampened his heroic spirit and lost his ambition to become emperor.
For example, Zhu Yuanzhang and Prince Zhu Biao in later generations.
If Zhu Biao is alive, it will also be Zhu Yuanzhang's greatest confidence.
If you create an eternal legacy for yourself and have virtuous descendants to inherit it, then your life's hard work will not be in vain.
If Zhu Biao dies, Zhu Yuanzhang will lose all hope.
Of course, Zhu Biao also has a good grandson like Zhu Yunwen.
That's a different story.
Until now, Cao Ang once again seriously underestimated his throne in the eyes of his father!
As Guo Jia said, the eldest son Cao Ang is the magic needle deep in Cao Cao's heart!
No wonder!
His father, Cao Cao, and his mother, Mrs. Ding, both wanted Cao Ang to have a son as soon as possible, so that they could have more children and more happiness!
Seeing Cao Ang fall into silence for a long time, in order to resolve the embarrassment, Guo Jia smiled and said:
"Master, let's talk about Wancheng's strange plan. How did you see through Zhang Xiu's plan and counterattack?"
After coming back to his senses, Cao Ang told Guo Jia one by one that the prime minister asked Zhang Xiu's aunt Zou to stay in bed, so Cao Ang concluded that Zhang Xiu would rebel that night.
Based on this speculation, Cao Ang reminded Cao Chun, the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, to take the initiative when he heard the sound of drums and charge directly to Zhang Xiu's army tent. He must capture the thief first and capture the king first.
Then, just to be on the safe side, Cao Ang appeased Dianwei, the commander of Wumeng School, and asked him to guard the gate of the camp. With one person, he could resist Hu Che'er and other soldiers.
But after Guo Jia listened, he remained silent for a long time.
What Guo Jia has learned is roughly inherited from Gui Guzi's lineage, and he has an insight into human nature. Only with a sufficient understanding of human nature, and based on what he does, can he make various accurate predictions.
This is what makes Guo Jia outstanding.
But now, Cao Ang has mastered the prediction of human nature, which made Guo Jia sigh:
"Sir, you have learned everything I have learned from my heart. From now on, I will have nothing more to teach you."
Cao Ang smiled and said:
“If it weren’t for the teacher’s teachings, how could the students be where they are today?”
Hearing the sound, Guo Jia stopped talking and just said goodbye to Cao Ang silently.
Watching Guo Jia go out, Cao Ang understood his sense of loss.
When a student surpasses a teacher, a teacher is naturally filled with joy, but more importantly, he is filled with a sense of loss.
At this moment, Cao Ang naturally would not tell him that I am a time traveler and have insight into all the historical trends of the Three Kingdoms.
The time traveler is the biggest bug in history.
Even at this moment, Cao Ang no longer complained, he was also a time traveler, why didn't I have a golden finger?
Because as long as I live, I am the biggest golden finger!
As for Guo Jia, although he was extremely smart, he was just a drunkard and a womanizer. His body was already hollowed out when he was in his thirties, and his life was not long.
As long as I am alive, what more counselors do you need? ?
With the ancient evil coming to Dian Wei alive, what other fierce generals are needed! ?
My only goal now is to live a good life and have many children and many blessings!
Not long after, Mrs. Ding served the food herself.
Zhang carefully helped Cao Ang up and served Cao Ang to eat with his own hands.
Cao Ang raised his head and glanced at Zhang. As he was marching for days, he found that Zhang also looked disheveled, so he said:
"Would you like to sit down and eat some too?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly:
"I don't dare!"
Since ancient times, slaves and masters have never dared to eat together.
But some people and some things are always unexpected.
At this moment, no matter what Cao Ang wants to do, Mrs. Ding will obey him.
Cao Ang laughed dumbly and glanced at his mother. Mrs. Ding quickly understood what Cao Ang meant and said to Zhang with a smile:
"Young Master asked you to come over, so come and eat together. You can also get to know the Young Master's taste and living habits, so that you can serve the Young Master in the future."
Hearing the sound, Mrs. Zhang obediently knelt down next to Cao Ang.
But before she even moved her chopsticks, Zhang's tears were already dripping on the table.
