Cao Ang failed to arrive in Moling before La Day, and he encountered some trouble in Gaoyou.

Because of a sudden cold current, the temperature dropped sharply, Zhongdu Water formed ice overnight and ships could not pass through. Fortunately, the end of the year is approaching, and this waterway is a golden waterway connecting Pengcheng, the East China Sea and Changsha. There are countless merchant ships coming and going. It is an immeasurable loss for one day to stop the operation. The prefect of Guangling quickly recruited the people along the way to break the ice and took three days to resume traffic.

Gaoyouzhun Yu Qing is from Fuchun and has some in-laws with the Sun family. When he learned that Sun Shangying had passed by, he naturally could not neglect it. He took the time to invite Cao Ang. Sun Shangying had a meal, accompanied Cao Ang to visit Qinyouyi, and finally gave him a basket of salted duck eggs. Gaoyouze produces a lot of marinated duck, which produces double-yolk eggs. After pickling into salted eggs, it is accompanied by porridge or wine. The flavor is very good. Now it is also a specialty of Gaoyou, and many people make a living.

Sun Shangying really liked this taste, and thought the double-yolk egg was auspicious, so she accepted it. She received news from Yuan Quan that Mi Lan was a twin, and she was quite envious and wanted to add a pair of children to Cao Ang. As for the danger of childbirth, she didn't care about it. With Hua Tuo, a famous doctor, she was not worried at all. After half a year of marriage to Changyi, she saw Hua Tuo's resurrection for many times, and Hua Tuo was almost supported by the maternal cottage in Changyi.

After the river was cleared, Cao Ang set off again, entered the river and walked up the river for more than 200 miles, turned into the Qinhuai River, and when he came to Tangshan, it was already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Before they arrived, Mrs. Wu had already arrived from Wu County. After half a year, the mother and daughter met again, and were particularly intimate and wept. After asking about Sun Shangying's recent situation, she saw that Sun Shangying was plump and in a good mood. Especially when she saw Cao Ang's eyes full of love, Mrs. Wu was very satisfied. She had a good impression of Cao Ang, but now she has become a son-in-law again, so she naturally likes her nostalgia. She asked about Mrs. Ding's recent situation and discussed when to marry Cao Ying for Sun Yi. This matter could have been done long ago, but Sun Quan's marriage was full of twists and turns. With Sun Yi, Cao Ying was indeed young, so she dragged it down. Mrs. Wu was a little anxious.

They had a tacit understanding and did not mention the war between Cao Cao and Sun Jian. As women, they were powerless and could only pin their hopes for a solution on Sun Ce and Cao Ang.

Sun Ce did not show up until the third day. As the New Year approached, he studied the navy in Xuanwu Lake and arranged for the remaining soldiers to celebrate the New Year related issues. He was so busy that he couldn't get rid of it. When he saw Cao Ang, he was still wearing armor and cloak, covered in dust, looking like he had just returned from the battlefield.

When Sun Shangying saw Sun Ce, he looked disgusted. "Why are you so fat? Have you done nothing this year and you know how to eat?"

Sun Shangying raised her eyebrows lightly and did not show any weakness. After getting married, she became a little more aggressive. At this moment, she was even more relaxed when she saw her favorite brother. "Why, do you hope I can be so thin that I can be blown away by the wind?"

Sun Ce said earnestly: "A person will easily become lazy when he is fat. If he can't control Zixiu, he will be looking for wild food outside."

Sun Shangying blurted out, "That's impossible, he's not you." As soon as he said that, he felt something was wrong, so he hurriedly covered his mouth and looked at Yuan Quan apologetically. Yuan Quan smiled with satisfaction and blinked his eyes knowingly. Sun Shangying couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hey, you are so heartless..." Sun Ce was speechless, pointed at Sun Shangying, and walked out with his arms around Cao Ang's shoulder. "When I finish asking, I will settle the score with you when I come back."

"Don't bully him, otherwise I'll settle the score with you."

"You'll be stupid for three years after pregnancy." Sun Ce shook his sleeves and looked helpless. Mrs. Wu and Yuan Quan looked at each other and laughed happily.

Sun Ce pulled Cao Ang out of the door and headed straight to the hot spring. He had been busy for several days and had no time to care about his personal hygiene. When he came back today, he had to make some soup and wash it up, so he could attend the banquet in the evening.

Cao Ang came for three days and had been with Sun Shangying. Although the hot spring was by his side, he had never been there. Sun Ce invited him, but he could not refuse. Besides, there was something between them that they had to say. After leaving the door, the leader Pan Zhang and two personal guards followed him. Sun Ce looked back and looked very unhappy.

"Get out!"

Pan Zhang stumbled his neck and said in a voice: "I am ordered to protect the envoy, and I will not obey my orders."

Sun Ce was furious. "You still need your protection here? If I do not benefit him, can you protect him?"

"How can you know if you don't try?" Pan Zhang said carelessly without any fear.

"Okay, just try it." Sun Ce raised his hand and snapped his fingers. "Zhongkang, drag this guy down and beat him up and teach him how to do things."

"Here." Xu Chu responded, turned around to stop Pan Zhang, and reached out to signal. "Please."

Pan Zhang looked at Xu Chu and grinned. "You are the tiger-in-law Xu Chu? I heard that you can pull the ox with great strength and have reached the level of superb level. I was just thinking of meeting you. I have to fight hard today, so don't hold back."

"You will definitely not be disappointed." Xu Chu said lightly.

Cao Ang was a little worried and hurriedly said, "Junhou, this is my general Pan Zhang and Pan Wengui. He is loyal and brave, but he is a bit rude. He did not intend to collide. Please forgive me."

When Sun Ce heard that it was Pan Zhang, he was even more angry. "Zhongkang, please greet him."

"Here."

Sun Ce pulled Cao Ang away. Pan Zhang was furious when he saw this and wanted to catch up and argue, but was stopped by Xu Chu and could not escape. He was so anxious that he screamed. Cao Ang was so amazed and crying. He looked back and told him to be careful and not think too much. Sun Ce really wanted to cause trouble for him, so how could Pan Zhang stop him?

"Mr., this... it's the New Year tomorrow. Isn't that good?"

Sun Ce smiled slightly, dragged Cao Ang forward, walked through the long corridor, and entered the locker room. Two maids in uniform came up and led Sun Ce and Cao Ang to one side to wear loose clothes for them. Sun Ce was used to it and let them mercy. This was the first time Cao Ang took off his clothes in front of an outsider, blushing and embarrassing, which made the maid who served him cover his lips and smile.

Sun Ce sat aside and watched the fun, feeling incredible. Is this Cao Ang really the kind of Cao Cao? It doesn't look like it at all.

After Sun Ce took off his clothes and put on a single clothes. Cao Ang was not halfway through, Sun Ce laughed. "I'm waiting for you outside." He got up and went out and soaked in the hot spring. After a while, Cao Ang walked out, tightly pulling the single clothes on his body, walking on the small pieces, as if he had been molested. He entered the pool carefully, sat down opposite Sun Ce, immersed his body in the hot spring water, let out a long sigh, and his eyebrows slowly stretched out.

“It’s really comfortable.”

"If you feel comfortable, stay for a few more days." Sun Ce said with a smile: "If you are willing to live here for the rest of your life, I will build a house for you here."

Cao Ang also smiled. "It's not bad for me, but it's definitely not the best way to the king."

"oh?"

"Have you heard the news of the emperor's victory in the Western Expedition?"

Sun Ce nodded. He not only received news from Jiang Gan, but also received official palace newspapers from the court. The palace newspaper was very simple, it just said that the emperor was on his way to triumphant victory in the West and would return to Chang'an by the end of the year. According to time, the emperor should have arrived in Chang'an now.

"Liangzhou has been in chaos for more than a hundred years, and countless famous generals have suffered setbacks in Xiliang. The emperor can win a great victory once he leaves. It is undoubtedly a rare auspicious sign for the people of the world. Since the Yellow Turbans, the world has been in chaos for thirteen years, and the people of the Central Plains have been wandering around and looking forward to peace. For example, today, the son is in the west, and the king is in the north, and the king is in the wise and the ministers are wise, and peace is expected. You can keep me here at this time and deliberately provoke wars, which is not something that the world is happy to see."

Sun Ce laughed twice, but refused to comment, signaling Cao Ang to continue.

"For me, my father was highly valued by the court and entrusted with the responsibilities of Yizhou. I was in charge of Yanzhou. Both father and son held important responsibilities. It was not in line with the court system and had relatives with the lord and marquis. It was a dilemma for both public and private. If you could get rid of your army and return to your land, or ask the general to return to your old house in Qiao County, or stay in Tangshan, it was a good choice. Why not do it?"

Sun Ce leaned on the white stone pond's arm, put his hands on the edge of the pond, and looked at Cao Ang with a smile. "Is this the argument Chen Gongtai taught you, or Mao Xiaoxian?"

Cao Ang also smiled and shook his head. "Chen Gongtai is indeed planning for me, but it is not what I just said."

"What did he say?"

"Reject the lord and marquis, reorganize the army internally, form allies externally, and observe the situation in the world."

"Why don't you listen to him?"

Cao Ang lowered his eyelids, remained silent for a moment, and sighed. "I am very tired." He pulled the water and narrowed his eyes, with a bit of fatigue in his eyes. "My father was an enemy of General Yuan, but was defeated by the Lord and Hou. He retreated to Chang'an and served the court. I stayed in Guandong and listened to the general order of Yuan Benchu. He was optimistic about the leader of the alliance, leaving me a way out for me. The father and son returned to the same path. He never thought that in the battle of Guandu, Yuan Benchu ​​was defeated and killed, and the Lord and Hou had half the world. I believe that I have little virtue and shallowness, and I am not the enemy of the Lord and Hou. I will hit stones with eggs and attack the lives of the soldiers with only the lives of the soldiers. If I call the Lord and Hou, then the father and son will be enemies, and are truly unfilial, and it is really difficult to advance and retreat. It is better to remove the military power, and to entrust the Lord and Hou under the wings of the Lord and Hou, and to be rich and honorable in the future. If the Lord and Hou are kind, they may be able to raise their younger brother and sister and inherit the family business."

"As a result, I should really keep you here, so as not to make things difficult for you."

"I sincerely wish." Cao Ang stood up, bowed and bowed, with a solemn expression. He just soaked his clothes in a single dress and stuck them to his body. The water flowed downwards, which was really a bit inconsistent.

Sun Ce laughed and waved his hand. "Okay, I'll think about it and I'll give you a reply after the New Year."

"Only what the king wants." Cao Ang sat back and leaned against the wall of the pool like Sun Ce. After saying those words, he seemed to relax a lot and no longer hold it so well. Sun Ce saw it and felt a little sympathetic. What Cao Ang said may not be all true, and it may be a part of a performance, but most of it is true. Cao Cao was a general who relied on the important tasks of the court. If a war starts, Cao Cao will definitely be the main force, and the possibility of their father and son playing against each other is definitely zero. As Cao Ang, this psychological barrier is not easy. Even if he, a time traveler, if Sun Jian insists on being loyal to the court, he cannot ignore other plans, perfunctory and save the country in a curve. If he really wants to make a fuss to the father and son, or even kill his father, no one can accept it. (Read the mobile version of the Three Kingdoms Little Overlords)
