Chapter 290 The curtain opens and the siege of the white horse

Zhonghou of the Northern Army, subordinate to Zhijinwu.

But there is a problem, that is, before this, the post of Zhijinwu has been pending, and no one has taken up the position. The fifth battalion of the Northern Army is under the jurisdiction of the Weiwei, while the middle commander of the Northern Army is directly under the Sikong Mansion and is commanded by Cao Cao. Of course.

Okay, this kind of distribution seems a bit chaotic, but it can be monitored to the greatest extent. At least before Cao Peng followed Cao Ji to Qiao County, the person who would be in charge of Jinwu had not yet been determined.

"Who is the current Kingo?"

On the way to Zhijinwu Yamen, Cao Peng couldn't help but ask the primary school leader who was leading the way.

Xiao Xiao is not that old and looks similar to Cao Peng. He has good features, but he is dark and thin and seems a bit thin.

"Marquis Cao Zhong doesn't know something. Now that I'm in charge of Jinwu, I am waiting for Lord Jia Xu in the capital."

Jia Xu?

Cao Peng's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.

He had heard about Zhang Xiu's surrender, but he didn't know much about the specific situation.

Especially Jia Xu's arrangements, he was completely unaware of it. No wonder Cao Peng, he had only been back for a few hours, it was impossible to find out the situation clearly... If he didn't ask, Li Ru and others would naturally not

He said that he thought Cao Peng already knew.

"Zhi Jinwu, is this Jia Xu?"

"Yes, why was Cao Zhonghou surprised?

Didn't you tell Duke Cao that you hope to become your master in the capital of Tinghou?"

Did I say this?

Well, I did say it, but it was just a casual comment...

Cao Peng suddenly reined in his horse and looked at the primary school student, "Who are you? How do you know such a thing?"

"I am Jia Xing, the adopted son of Dutinghou."

Jia Xing?

never heard of that……

At least in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I don’t have the slightest impression.

Cao Peng looked at the young man in front of him with confusion, and made rapid calculations in his mind.

It seems normal. As a boss, there is nothing wrong with meeting his subordinates. But for some reason, Cao Peng always feels a little uneasy in his heart. Jia Xu, that is the most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Yin Ren... But if

Let Cao Peng say why he is so poisonous? Cao Peng couldn't tell. It was just instinctive, and he was a little afraid of Jia Xu. Even when he faced Mr. Cao, Cao Peng had never felt this way. But now he wants to see him

Jia Xu was shocked, and Cao Peng was really a little afraid. This feeling cannot be explained or understood.

Maybe, it's instinctive fear?

"Cao Zhonghou, let's go, Du Tinghou is waiting for us."

It seems that he was specially summoned.

Cao Peng secretly took a deep breath and pretended to be calm and said: "Okay, let's get there quickly."

————————————————————————

Zhijinwu Yamen is located outside Yuxiu Gate.

As early as the Qin Dynasty, Zhi Jinwu, whose real name was Lieutenant, was an official responsible for worshiping Kyoto and Miyagi. His soldiers were also called the Northern Army.

In the first year of Taichu, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the name "Lieutenant" was changed to Zhi Jinwu.

Responsible for patrolling, prohibiting violence, supervising rape and other matters within the capital, and interacting with the guards who guard the palace. There are two thousand stones in the rank, two prime ministers, Sima and thousands of people. However, in the Eastern Han Dynasty,

Zhi Jinwu was directly related to him, and he retained the position of arsenal commander.

The current arsenal order is none other than Cao Peng's father, Cao Ji.

Cao Ji was worshiped as the Marquis of Che, appointed as the Commander-in-Chief of Cao Cao, and also served as the Commander of the Arsenal...

In other words, Cao Peng and his son now belong to Jia Xu's official tribe.

When it comes to the official position of Zhi Jinwu, I am afraid that the most impressive thing for future generations is the sentence, "The official should be regarded as Zhi Jinwu, and the wife should marry Yin Lihua." The person who said this sentence was the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu... However, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhi Jinwu's rights have become smaller and smaller. Cao Cao's worship of Jia Xu as Zhi Jinwu is actually only a nominal honor.

Jia Xu's real position now is to join Sikong Military Affairs, that is, as a staff member of Sikong Mansion.

Since the beginning of the Han Dynasty, officials have been divided into nobility, ranks and positions.

Jue, the honor of an official, such as Jia Xu's Dutinghou; rank, the rank of an official; position, the palm of an official.

Later Chen Qun created the nine-rank Zhongzheng system and added 'pin', which is the preface of the official. For Jia Xu, being the Marquis of Duting is his title, holding Jinwu is his rank, and joining the Sikong Military Service is his rank.

job.

In Zhijinwu Yamen, Cao Peng finally met the famous poisoner, Jia Xu.

Jia Xu is from Guzang, Wuwei. He is tall, about 188cm tall. He is tall and thin and has a bronze complexion, which is obviously caused by being exposed to wind and rain all year round. Being a mastermind does not mean staying in the house all day.

, he also has to do a lot of outdoor activities...

Jia Xu was very handsome and should have been classified as a handsome boy when he was young.

He has a long beard under his chin and a smiling face, giving him the appearance of a kindly elder.

"Marquis Cao Zhong!"

"Cao Peng, who holds a humble position, has seen Du Tinghou."

"Haha, you're welcome. You're welcome. Marquis Cao Zhong, please take a seat."

Although this guy had a bright smile and looked kind, Cao Peng had a creepy feeling.

It seemed like a poisonous snake hiding in the grass. When Jia Xu's eyes fell on Cao Peng, Cao Peng got goosebumps all over his body.

This guy feels even scarier than Guo Jia!

The great thing about Guo Jia is his "ghost", which is unpredictable and difficult to figure out.

Jia Xu, on the other hand, seems to be elusive and add a hint of sinisterness. His plans are often sharp and hit the point. If he doesn't make a move, he will use it, and if he does, it will be a poisonous move that kills people. Li Ru and Jia Xu

Xu once worked for Dong Zhuo, and he also said that in terms of strategy, he was far inferior to Jia Xu. Why did he say that? Because Jia Xu was the only guy he couldn't understand at the time.

It seems that Jia Xu did not serve Dong Zhuo wholeheartedly.

And there is also the factor that Dong Zhuo despises Jia Xu.

After entering Luoyang, Dong Zhuo paid special attention to the children of aristocratic families, but was relatively indifferent to the poor people who followed him before.

Li Ru told Cao Peng that if he saw Jia Xu, it was best to stay still.

Otherwise, it will be easy for him to see the flaws...

Therefore, Cao Peng was polite. After sitting down, he looked at his nose with his eyes, his mouth with his nose, and his heart with his mouth, just like an old monk who was in meditation.

What if Jia Xu had a bad feeling for Cao Peng?

That's not to say...it's just that he was unhappy that Cao Peng ruined his strategy of keeping a low profile, which made him quite embarrassed after arriving in Xudu.

In his heart, he felt a little proud.

After all, Cao Peng is a member of Cao Cao's tribe, and he is famous for his "Eight Hundred Character Essay". He is also a famous person in every age.

To say that Jia Xu was not happy to receive such high praise from Cao Peng was pure nonsense. After he tricked Cao Peng, he felt much relieved. I called Cao Peng over today just to give him another blow. By the way,

To have a relationship with Cao Peng...

There are people in the DPRK who can do things easily!

Jia Xu sees this worldly nature more clearly than Guo Jia.

Unexpectedly, after Cao Peng entered the house, he protected himself like a hedgehog and sat there without saying a word.

This little guy can actually keep his composure.

"I heard that Cao Zhonghou is from Wuyin?"

"Oh, my father lived in Wuyin in his early years and was a native of Zhongyang Town."

"Zhongyang Town, I know that place, I have been there...but how did Cao Zhonghou come to Xudu? How talented is your sir, if he had joined Zhang Boluan at that time, he would have made a difference."

"This... I had to flee because I offended the Wuyin Order at that time."

"I see."

Jia Xu nodded lightly, "That very kind person named Cheng actually made it possible for us to meet each other now."

"In the future, please take good care of me, Du Tinghou."

"Haha, that's natural, that's natural!" Jia Xu closed his eyes slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he suddenly said: "When Jia first arrived in Xudu, he heard people talking about the power of Cao Zhonghou. Thanks to Cao Zhonghou's gift, Jia Xu

Being valued by my lord, I am extremely ashamed of myself for holding King Wu.

However, there is one thing I have to ask Cao Zhonghou to forgive me."

"What's up?"
