Mr. Qian's family carefully put away his paper.
Chapter 273 Monkey King
The writing is complete.
Young masters Qian and Li asked eagerly, "When will the imperial decree come down?"
They were looking forward to putting on official uniforms tomorrow.
Cao Xiong thought about it carefully, and said, "Hurry up for eight hundred miles! It will take three days anyway."
The two sons were very excited!
Thank you again and again and leave.
Three days later, in the city of Beiping, there will be an extra marshal of the canopy and a general of the shutter!
Thinking of this, both of them secretly laughed!
Cao Xiong collected the papers and was about to write a letter to his father Cao Cao.
Suddenly, I saw a young master sitting in this room.
It is the son of the Sun family.
From Cao Xiong's point of view, this young master escaped a catastrophe.
But he doesn't think so. From his melancholy eyes and resentful expression, it can be seen that he is not convinced!
Originally, I bought an official title in a good way, just in front of the other two young masters, playing off the official authority!
I never thought that the two of them are "the magpies in the room are chirping - good things are coming"
Suddenly became my own boss!
According to the official name, a Marshal of the Canopy and a General of the Curtain, they are so majestic!
What about yourself?
It's "Weasel dragging a feather duster - no fun!"
The official title of the governor of post Cao Cao is considered a fart in front of the two of them?
The more I think about it, the angrier I get!
The more you think, the more angry you become!
Now, the only son is sitting there alone, panting and dazed.
Cao Xiong glanced at him.
"Young Master Sun, how much grain did you, the governor of the Postal Service, buy?"
"Hey, [-] shi, otherwise, how could these two young masters compare to me!"
In words, full of helplessness!
Cao Xiong smiled slightly, and said in his heart: "There is a play!"
So, casually said: "How about I ask my father to help you find an official?"
Young Master Sun heard it.
Immediately stood up, eyes glowing green.
"Fifth Young Master? Is it really possible?"
"It's possible, but you can't give out less food and get more officials, right?"
Young Master Sun Jia let out a sigh of "ah".
Suddenly, I thought of something.
"Fifth son, I use the official title of Duyou Cao, it's worth 15 shi! Add 21 shi, a total of [-] shi, this official title is naturally bigger than the two of them!"
Cao Xiong thought carefully.
"That's... it's... reasonable!"
As soon as I heard there was a play.
The son of the Sun family hurriedly said: "The 15 shi from the Sun family is also donated to our Prime Minister Cao, and we will not take any money!"
"Come on!"
"Based on your filial piety to Prime Minister Cao, this young master has decided to seek a high official for you."
Cao Xiong picked up his pen.
"This official title... Uh... this is amazing! Monkey King!"
Monkey King?
Listen to Mr. Sun's family!
Hi!
One of you is a general and the other is a marshal. I am a great sage!
From the name, this official title is more powerful than you!
However, Mr. Sun still had some concerns, "Great Sage Equaling Heaven... Equaling Heaven... Could it be too high-profile!"
Cao Xiong waved his hand, "Not high-profile, not high-profile! If you have to spend tens of thousands more in food and grass, I will even beg for the official title of Yuanshi Tianzun for you!"
God!
Nima, this is even more uncontrollable!
The young master of the Sun family expressed his thanks in great sincerity and fear.
"Hello, Monkey King, hello, Monkey King."
The fifth son, Cao Xiong, wrote another letter based on the written evidence just now.
——Mr. Sun's family donated 15 shi of grain and grass, plus the official title of postal governor Cao Yu, in exchange for the official title of "Equal to Heaven" by the son of heaven!If you go back on your word, you will punish the Nine Clans!Die badly!
In duplicate!Sign and draw!
The young master of the Sun family carefully put away the paperwork, and he was very happy in his heart.
Thank you again and again, and then leave.
Chapter 274 Buying and Selling Officials
Cao Xiong took advantage of this dining table to write a letter to his father Cao Cao!He asked Xu Chu to send someone seven hundred miles away to send it urgently.
Then stretched.
"Writing so many words, I'm exhausted!"
Seeing that Cao Xiong was tired, Xu Chu hurriedly asked, "Fifth Young Master, let's go back to the post house to rest first?"
Cao Xiong nodded, and suddenly saw the dishes on the table.
"Marquis of Guannei, don't waste these little lamb meat, Gobi bear's paw, and white-lipped deer tail. Pack them up and take them home. Let our soldiers of the Huben Army try something new."
Xu Chu laughed.
Instruct Xiao Er to pack and send it to the post house.
Arrive at the post house.
Cao Xiong deliberately mentioned the food box for steaming deer tail.
Muttering to himself.
"I heard that this deer tail is beautifying and beautifying, Lingju will definitely... like it?"
Thinking of this, he shook his head and delivered the food box to the Lingju room in person.
But he doesn't know that Lingju has been protecting him in the dark these days!
There was a slight sound in the dark.
"Hmph... you still have a little conscience, you can think of me..."
After all, the figure flickered.
Lingju went back to her room through the window first.
****
Yecheng!
Prime Minister's House.
Cao Cao received a letter today, a letter from the fifth son!
The content of the letter is concise and to the point!
Buy official.
Not for yourself!
It's not for the confidants around me to buy!
It turned out that the three clans of Beiping City, Kuo Shao, used 55 grain and grass to buy three official titles.
Cao Cao thought it was very interesting, so he summoned all his sons to discuss this matter.
After Cao Chong read the letter.
Cao Zhang was the first to stand up, looking very irritable.
He reprimanded: "Fifth brother is really going too far, asking for officials for these dudes for no reason!
Is it possible that the official title of the emperor can be canonized casually?
Father, the child thought he should be severely reprimanded! "
Cao Cao glanced at Cao Zhi.
"What do Zhi'er think?"
"No matter what the reason is, it is always wrong to buy and sell officials!
It should be known that during the reign of Emperors Huan and Ling, it was because of the atmosphere of buying and selling officials that caused chaos in the world and the Yellow Turban Uprising.
Father, you should think twice.
Naturally, the official can't give it, and the fifth brother should be punished even more!
So that our officials in the north are convinced! "
Taking the two emperors Huan and Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty as examples, Cao Zhi analyzed in detail the root cause of the decline of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Taking history as a mirror, there is no doubt.
"What do you think of Pi'er?" Cao Cao looked at Cao Pi again.
"Pi'er thinks that what the third and fourth brothers say makes sense! What the fifth brother does also makes sense!
But once the trend of buying and selling officials rises, will there be some turmoil in the north?
Father went south to Jingzhou, will the rear be safe? "
Cao Pi spoke at a slow pace, and gave a seemingly unremarkable answer.
In fact, the dark tide is raging.
Straightforwardly point out that Cao Xiong's actions will destabilize the northern bureaucracy system!
What's more, it will affect the stability of Cao Cao's rear when he goes south.
Even if Cao Cao doesn't deal with the fifth son now, if this matter gets out in the future, his reputation as the fifth son will inevitably be associated with buying and selling officials.
This is a great disadvantage for him to compete for the crown prince.
