Chapter 7 Received money but did not do anything
"Then select the person as Wang Situ. Now you can go to his mansion to make a decision."
Cao Cao waved his hand.
"It's not that easy. It's a big taboo to talk to others in a simple and deep manner. If you don't know each other on weekdays, you will come to the door to talk about this matter rashly, but you don't know how to speak for your father."
Cao Ang glanced at his father in surprise.
"How can we not be familiar with each other? Didn't we have a good conversation outside Dongming Gate not long ago?"
"Father welcomes the emperor back today. All officials and ministers are interested in making friends and having fun talking with you. Everyone is familiar with you."
"It is definitely not enough to ask Wang Situ to recommend you to rise by this point, but as a stepping stone, I think it is absolutely fine to lead to the detailed discussion in the future."
This is the benefit of fame.
The Han Dynasty was a dynasty that valued fame. It didn’t matter if there was no power or power. As long as you had a reputation, you could have a certain social status and then do a good job.
The reputation has reached a certain level. No matter where you go, even people you have never met before will take the initiative to deal with.
This is equivalent to a layer of "connection lv1" buffs, and those who do not recognize each other are calculated at one level.
Cao Cao was stunned by his son's alternative insights. After thinking for a while, he felt that it made sense.
Everyone had a great chat this morning. It was impossible for me to go to see you in the afternoon, so you could put on another face and serve tea and see off guests.
This plan is feasible!
Cao Cao is a decisive person.
Since he decided to open a breakthrough from Wang Yun, he did not waste much time. He immediately ordered his servants to prepare their cars and horses and prepare to go directly to Situ's mansion to finalize the matter.
Just as the work of preparing, Cao Cao paced back and forth in the house with his hands behind his back.
"Zi Xu, do you think I need to prepare some generous gifts? What is better if I give them?"
Cao Annu nodded.
"Aren't you just a generous gift? What else do you need to prepare? Just go empty-handed."
Clam?!!!
Cao Cao was shocked and felt a little creepy. What kind of tricks are you playing?
This kid is so young!
Fortunately, Cao Ang quickly explained again.
"Wang Situ is the third minister, what else can he lack for food, clothing and expenses? No matter how generous the gift you give is, it seems to him is just a small gift and has no meaning."
"On the contrary, he needs it, and we can just show it, it's you."
"Of course it's not about your hands, feet, or something, but the support and help you can provide, my father. After all, Wang Yun's power in the court is far worse than Yuan Wei and Yang Biao, and your effectiveness is just about his preference."
Cao Cao understood.
"You mean that we can surrender to Wang Yun when necessary, at the cost of standing in line with his faction in exchange for his support for me?"
Cao Ang knocked on the table and nodded happily.
"That's the case, and there's no need to worry about the consequences of our promises. Anyway, it's just something that we promised verbally."
"When it is really time to take a team, we must judge according to the actual situation. How to choose is not our own decision. Can Wang Situ still hold a knife on our necks and force us to keep our promises?"
Cao Cao: "..."
Don't do anything after collecting money, right?
It's so dark!
A bit like me.
…………
The facts are consistent with Cao Ang's judgment. Wang Yun warmly welcomes the visit of the Cao family and his son.
Not only did it open the door to welcome the two of them at once, it even set up a banquet to cheer them up with singing and dancing, as if it was an attitude of entertaining the VIPs.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food.
Wang Yunping left the singer and dancer, then asked someone to bring some tea and a little cover to the door, then he asked with a smile.
"In the early morning, Meng De bowed to me and said goodbye, but he didn't expect to meet again in the mansion."
"I guess Meng De was born not only to drink and tea with me, but also to chat and laugh. He was mostly discussing things. If you don't mind, please speak out."
He spoke quite straightforwardly, which shows that Wang Yun also had some speculations about the purpose of Cao Cao coming here.
Seeing that Wang Situ took the initiative to open up the conversation and lead to the next detailed discussion, Cao Cao naturally would not go around in circles.
"Ming Gong is quick to speak, so Cao said something straight, but I will not hide it from it. I came to visit Ming Gong this time because I hope to get your strong help."
Perhaps because he guessed Cao Cao's purpose, a faint smile immediately appeared on Wang Yun's face.
"Meng De needs my help if he has something to do, so he might as well speak it out. If it is within his ability, he will help him no matter what."
Cao Cao didn't care how beautiful Wang Yun said in the scene, but just stood up and bowed, and then stated.
"According to the importance of the late emperor, Cao took office as the Dianjun Academy in the fifth year of Zhongping. I know the heavy responsibility and sleeping day and night, so I dare not slackewer."
"I thought I could be in office for a few years, but I didn't expect that the emperor would die and ascend the throne now. My so-called military captain has become a tower in the air."
"Although Cao dare not be called a hero, he does not want to have ambitions and useless ambitions. Now there is a rare opportunity for God. My son and I will lead the soldiers back to the emperor by chance, so we want to take this opportunity to move my position as a military captain."
Cao Ang wanted to laugh when he heard Cao Cao's words.
What a bullshit Emperor, Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong never gave his father Cao Cao the power. He put him in the team of the Eight Captains of Xiyuan, and it was a complete decoration.
The eight captains of Xiyuan are concerned that the top leader is responsible for their full responsibility. When Liu Hong is alive, Jian Shuo has the final say.
Liu Hongxi was gone, and Yuan Shao had the final say. Cao Cao had never had military power in this official position.
Wang Yun obviously understands the tricks.
Because as Cao Cao's narration, the originally faint smile on his face became stronger and stronger. If you look closely, you will notice a hint of pride and feel like you have grasped other people's pain points.
As Cao Cao finished speaking, Wang Yun said slowly.
"A man is ambitious and is trapped in a position where he can't do anything and cannot show his ambitions. How can he be called a real man? I understand Meng De's thoughts."
"And you and I both got the same thing again. I will definitely help you with such a busy life, but..."
All things are afraid of "just"
"But compared to Taifu and others, my foundation in the court is still too shallow, and the Situ position is not firm."
"Although I dare not say that people are slight, at least I should be careful in my words and actions on weekdays. It is really difficult for me to speak out for things like promotion of military officers and allocate military power."
The words are very shallow.
It's as shallow as if it's clearly showing a carriage and horse.
"My foundation is not solid", so someone needs to strengthen my power. Only when the power grows, there is no need to "be careful in words and actions" and push you Cao Cao up.
Just to say this, as for how to proceed, the choice has been handed over to Cao Cao.
