Chapter fifty-two banquet

Cao Song avoided the disaster to Langya, Xuzhou because Cao Mengde raised an army to attack Dong. It has been more than two years since then.

At the beginning, Cao Ren was personally escorting the resettlement.

Speaking of which, in the chaotic times of the late Han Dynasty, at least at this stage, the princes of various families were still concerned about many unspoken rules. For example, Cao Mengde's hometown, Qiao County, Pei State, was previously within the sphere of influence of Yuan Shu. Although Cao Song went to avoid disaster to Langya, the Cao family and Xiahou family were both very wealthy and many clans remained in Qiao County. However, Yuan Shu had never had the idea of ​​two clans.

Cao Song avoided the disaster to Langya, and Langya was Xuzhou, and Tao Qian and Cao Mengde were also two camps, but during this period, Tao Qian had never attacked Cao Song.

This is probably what the so-called disaster is not as good as the family.

So Cao Mengde never thought about the problems his father Cao Song would have in Xuzhou.

However, rules have always existed for breaking.

Zhao Yu said: "The old lady avoids disaster to Xuzhou. After all, a foreign land is not as good as a family. Now that the princes are rife, the conflicts are becoming increasingly serious. I am afraid... Meng De has gained a foothold and should invite the old lady back."

When Cao Mengde heard this, he couldn't help but nodded: "What the sir said is. I was so busy that I almost forgot that I was really unfilial!"

Zhao Yu said: "It's not too late now."

He smiled and said, "If the old lady had an accident in Xuzhou, what should Meng De do?"

Cao Mengde raised his eyebrows: "I will kill Tao Gongzu!"

Zhao Yu stroked his hands: "Then Meng De can start doing it."

Cao Mengde's expression changed and he laughed: "Want to let Tao Gongzu take the blame?"

"Why not?" Zhao Yu smiled and said, "You should be honest and ask the old lady to come back first. Then secretly send someone to escape from the territory of Xuzhou... But this requires you to plot against the old lady, I don't know where the old lady..."

Cao Mengde smiled and said, "If you are not afraid or afraid, my father will not object, but will support it."

"That's good." Zhao Yu said: "Meng De was like this, and the general was punished by Tao Qian, so he launched a large army to attack Xuzhou. Yanzhou was empty. Do you guess those people should jump out?"

"Two birds with one stone?"

"Two birds with one stone." Zhao Yu laughed and said, "But it is not easy to eat this bird in Xuzhou in one battle."

"It's okay, take up Langya, Donghai and Pengcheng first, and eat half of it." Cao Mengde was not greedy. Thinking of the benefits, he was full of joy: "When opening the door, Xuzhou is flat, can he run away!"

"It's good if Meng De knows it."

Zhao Yu said: "Since that's the case, we can start preparing. Meng De will go back to Puyang first, and I will go in a few days."

In the following days, Zhao Yu made a busy statement, and everyone in the courtyard knew that Zhao Yu was about to travel far.

Zhao Yu arranged a study plan for Cao Ang and his children, and gave it to Cai Bo for supervision, and practice martial arts and physical training to Guan Hai for supervision. As long as everything was done, Zhao Yu took Cai Yan, a couple, and left the other courtyard to Puyang.

The couple was riding in a carriage and abandoning the carriage. Zhao Yu drove and Zhao Ji was walking slowly all the way, either looking at the scenery or chatting, and enjoying himself.

When they entered Puyang and went to the provincial governor's mansion, Cao Mengde welcomed his wife and his wife into the mansion. After a while, all the civil and military officials arrived. So they held a banquet for guests and ate together.

In the hall, the singer and dancer waved their long sleeves, the musician ding dong, and the zither and sing sheng.

Cao Mengde sat upright on his head, Zhao Yu on his right, Xun Yu on his right, and Xun Yu on his lower side, followed by Cao Hong on his left, and Cao Chun on his second, and some people Zhao Yu didn't recognize. They watched the singing and dancing and chatted in a low voice.

During the period when Zhao Yu was not in Puyang, as Cao Mengde's power became more and more stable, and the establishment of a recruitment hall and posted a recruitment order, many knowledgeable people were under his command. Whether civil and military officials, there were a lot more people than before. Those who could be placed in the hall were all attracted by Cao Mengde's eyes, and they were all capable and talented.

Among them is the envoy of Jingzhou, which is Yiji mentioned by Cao Mengde a few days ago.

Because he was an envoy, he was ranked third, below Xun Yu and above Chen Palace. However, Cheng Yu was not there because Cheng Yu was the Birthday Order and was not in Puyang.

During the banquet, Yi Ji would look at Zhao Yu quietly from time to time. He really couldn't figure it out. Why didn't he hear Zhao Yu's name? But this person could sit on the right head and his status was higher than Xun Yu?

"Mr. Zhao is polite."

Yiji leaned over, raised the wine title through Xun Yu, and said, "I have heard of Mr. Zhao's name for a long time, and I can't admire you."

Zhao Yu smiled slightly, changed his respect and said, "My Boss also knows me?"

The words are quite ridiculous.

An embarrassment flashed across Yiji's face and said, "I'll tell Mr. Zhao to make a joke."

Zhao Yu shook his head slightly: "My Bo has great talent, it is because I have long admired him."

In the middle, Xun Yu smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao doesn't seek knowledge, but Brother Ji Bo doesn't know it."

The three of them were laughing and laughing.

After drinking and eating, Cao Mengde waved his hand and asked him to take him off to sing and dance for food.

Cao Mengde smiled and said, "Why do you have time to come to my humble room today?"

Zhao Yu said: "One is to be quiet and think about moving, and the other is to say goodbye to Meng De."

Cao Mengde looked shocked and shouted, "But what's wrong with it? Sir is not satisfied?"

Zhao Yu shook his head and laughed: "Why do you have to make a fuss about Mengde? It's not that Mengde is not bad, but that I am very quiet and I am thinking about moving."

After a pause, Zhao Yu said, "I have been in the other courtyard for nearly half a year and feel my bones are rusted. It is better to travel thousands of miles than reading thousands of books. I plan to take my inner son to walk around and take a look. In addition, Meng De knew that I had reached the critical point in my meditation practice. He also wanted to find a place where the Yuan Qi gathered and sit in the gate to break through the realm."

After hearing this, Cao Mengde frowned and said, "Sir, I want to sit in the gates. Is there no good place in Yanzhou? Why do you need to leave the nearest and far away?"

Zhao Yu shook his head: "It is necessary to have famous mountains and rivers."

Cao Mengde said nothing for a long time and sighed: "There are not no famous mountains in Yanzhou."

Zhao Yu shook his head and said, "It can be either Western Shu or Nanshan, these two places cannot be used. Meng De, I have decided, so you don't have to persuade me anymore."

Cao Mengde looked disappointed: "Now everything in Yanzhou is busy, but the sir is leaving, I..."

Zhao Yu said: "Why should Meng De do this? He has only been around for two or three years. When I have achieved success in my cultivation, I will return. In the other courtyard, there are ten disciples who are still there, and I have not fulfilled my responsibilities as a teacher. How can I never return?"

Cao Mengde seemed to think of this and said, "It is because of this that sir should not stay away."

Zhao Yu smiled and said, "As long as my disciples were young, I have only laid the foundation in the past two or three years. If I really want to teach, it will take two or three years later. That was when I came back."

Cao Mengde was silent for a moment and sighed repeatedly: "Since the teacher has made up his mind, I can't say more. Well, the teacher wants to travel far away. I don't know what I need, so I should prepare it for the teacher."

Zhao Yu said: "No, no, I'm ready."

Xun Yu next to him said, "Sir, why refuse? I see that when Mr. Zhao Ji came today, he had only one carriage with Mrs. Zhao Ji, and nothing else. Unless Mr. Husband also wants to go back to another courtyard."
