"Because this is Jicheng, the prefect is Cao Zhen!
Some of the coins that Cao Zhen obtained with five times the tax were collected in his pocket, some were opened up for the relationship between the Jicheng clans, and some were handed over to the generals of the Cao family!
Could it be that the fifth son really thought that the salary of a big man alone could support the generals of the Cao family to build mansions everywhere and have wives and concubines in groups? "
Be nice!
incredible!
Cao Xiong gasped.
I really don't know if I don't go out. Once I go out, the world outside is very chaotic!
Lingju didn't understand something, and asked:
"This Jicheng? Cao Cao doesn't care?"
"Hahaha!" The old beggar burst out laughing.
"Take care? What if? How can there be so many beggars in Jicheng? So many orphans? So many homeless people?"
"Joke! Cao Zhen is covering the sky with one hand in Jicheng, and the generals of the Cao family are standing behind him. Who dares to control it?
Cao Zhen united with the clan to ransack the homes of the people who could not pay the taxes, who would dare to control them?
Cao Zhen turned the west of the city into a den of beggars, forbidding them to leave the city, and not allowing them to go to the east of the city!Let them fend for themselves!Who dares to care? "
Speaking of this, the old beggar glanced at Cao Xiong.
"Fifth Young Master? Do you dare to take care of it?"
Chapter 186 It's Muddy Waters
The old beggar's questions stuck in Cao Xiong's heart, and he was also very unhappy.
Cao Xiong asked himself that he was not a noble person!
But in the face of such an ugly villain, Cao Zhen.
He couldn't help but clenched his fists fiercely.
Can I manage it?
Do I care?
Not to mention Cao Zhen's father's adopted son, who also served as a general in Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Just talk about the background behind him.
This muddy water trip is really not easy.
Once you break your face with Cao Zhen, you will be against the entire Cao family and the entire Xiahou family!
Xiahou Dun, Xiahouyuan...
Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Chun...
Those countless, mighty generals of the Cao family!
I'm afraid they will put away their most kind eyes!
Target Cao Xiong in the most vicious way?
Even if he won the matter of Jicheng!
What was lost was the support of the Cao family!
He came here only to raise food, so he could use this matter to blackmail Cao Zhen. With his relationship with the clan, it is not difficult to raise food and grass.
What's more, he is still the son of the Cao family, maybe they will offer a coin to him.
From now on, I will have a nest with these generals of the Cao family!
Is this the right choice?
A dozen question marks appeared on Cao Xiong's forehead.
On one side are the innocent people of Jicheng!On one side is the powerful general of the Cao family!
How to choose?
Seeing the fifth son Cao Xiong was thinking with his eyes closed, the old beggar laughed "haha".
"Fifth Young Master, it's better to weigh it carefully. This is a mere citizen of Jicheng? How can it be worth your glorious future!"
The old beggar's words were somewhat mocking!
But the truth is there!
Just when Cao Xiong was hesitant.
Super bullet screens frequently flashed in the live broadcast room.
Li Shimin: "Anchor, I also encountered this problem back then!"Choose the clan or choose the people!
Fortunately, Wei Zheng's words woke me up.Only then did I realize the truth that 'water can carry a boat and capsize it'!
Today, I don't impose on you how to choose, I just share this sentence with you! 』
Cao Xiong was taken aback!
Yes, water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it!
Liu Bang: "Anchor!I was only a pavilion chief in Surabaya at first, so how can I overthrow the rule of Tyranny?It is because he Qin Chao lost the hearts of the people, but I won the hearts of the people!
Those who win the hearts of the people win the world!I also share this sentence with you! 』
Xiang Yu: "The words of that villain Liu Bang are what I want to say!"
The title of Overlord of Western Chu was not given to me by a certain clan!It's what all Jiangdong's disciples call this king from the bottom of their hearts! 』
Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world.
Cao Xiong silently repeated this sentence.
Ying Zheng: "You all say that the lonely Great Qin is unpopular!"Gu is sometimes introspecting, if Gu does not burn books and confuse scholars?Increase the corvee of the people?Brutal criminal law?Kill casually?
Perhaps, Qin will not perish in the second generation! 』
Yang Guang: "The first emperor's introspection is exactly the same as mine!"If I cared a little bit about the suffering of the people, how could that thief Li Shimin take advantage of it?Take my Tai Sui! 』
Temujin: "Ben Khan's ancient iron cavalry swept across the Eurasian continent, but why did the country perish in just 90 years!Think about it carefully, but it is inseparable from the word 'people's heart'!
Anchor, your choice, don't follow in Ben Khan's footsteps! 』
Zhu Youxiao: "I just said that you talk about something every day!
With this skill, it is enough for our wooden crafts to break out of the Three Kingdoms and go to the world! 』
Cao Xiong patiently watched every barrage in the live broadcast room.
Smile.
It seems that a decision has been made!
Opening his eyes, a ray of awe-inspiring light shot out from his pupils!
"Old man! In this muddy water, Fifth Young Master——
——It's decided! "
Chapter 187 Tiger Whiskers
This!
Cao Cao's fifth son dared to touch the tiger's whiskers of the Cao family!
Hear Cao Xiong's words.
The old beggar was completely shocked.
For various purposes, there are not no generals who came here to inspect!
Among the five good generals, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Yu Jin have all been to Jicheng!
But when they discovered the intricate relationship of interests between Jicheng and the Cao Group, they all chose to remain silent!
Even the muddy water of Jicheng, dare not even touch it!
Unexpectedly, just today, Cao Xiong, the fifth son of Cao Cao!
He even boasted that he wanted to swim in the muddy waters of Jicheng!
What kind of son is this?
For a while!
The old beggar felt that he couldn't see through the young man in front of him, this young man who was still a little childish, but full of heroic spirit!
Lingju glanced at Cao Xiong with a smile, as if applauding his choice.
At this moment.
"Tap Tap!"
The sound of hurried and scattered footsteps!
next second!
"Bang"!There was a loud knock on the door.
The gate of the mountain temple was directly overturned to the ground by more than ten hands.
Dust scattered!
In the dust, one can gradually see clearly that four or No. 50 officers and soldiers broke into the mountain temple.
These officers and soldiers were all armed with long knives.
Without any explanation, each found a beggar.They put the long knife on their necks.
At the end of the line were four officers and soldiers who walked slowly into the mountain temple.
"Brother Zhang Ye! It's the two of them who dare to teach us officers and soldiers a lesson!"
Cao Xiong was very familiar with the three officers and soldiers, they were the three whom Lingju had taught him just now.
All three of them were pointing at Cao Xiong and Lingju with their left hands. It seemed that their right wrist could not be lifted because of an injury.
This officer named Zhang Ye took a step forward, and as the dust dispersed, he saw his face was ferocious and fierce!
He held a tiger-headed broadsword in his hand.
After scanning the mountain temple, his eyes slowly fell on the old beggar.It seems that the old beggar still has a certain weight in his heart.
"Old beggar, do you want to protect these two people?"
As Zhang Ye spoke, his eyes slowly moved to Cao Xiong and Lingju.
In the current situation, officers and soldiers have put knives on all the beggars.
If the old beggar wanted to protect these two teenagers, it was inevitable that Zhang Ye would not kill these beggars.
In this thistle city!
It is easier to kill a beggar than to crush an ant.
"Where are you taking them?" the old beggar asked in a deep voice.
Cao Xiong was a little puzzled, if this old beggar is really as powerful as Xiang Yu said, why didn't he take action?
At this moment.
Xiang Yu's super barrage explained Cao Xiong's doubts.
"This old beggar has disabled legs! 』
