    Cao Ang frowned slightly. As far as he knew, Xiaolian's place was in short supply. Although Liu Quan had some power, he couldn't be so sure unless there were other big bosses behind him to support him!  But my grandfather said a few days ago that Liu Quan took office based on his own strength and did not have any decent network of connections?  Moreover, even if Qiao County can be allocated a quota, the powerful and prominent families in Qiao County will have to discuss and decide. Liu Quan's private appointment as a county magistrate will not count at all!  So why is Liu Quan so sure?  !

    Cao Ang fell into deep thought. It is said that Liu Quan is from Yangxian, Wu County, and I have never heard that they have any high officials there!

    Probably because the peace agreement was reached, the place next door was very lively, and soon the host and guest had a good time and left.  Cao Ang waited until there was no movement outside, then took Xiao Yi and escorted Hua Tuo back to the hospital.

    When he took Xiao Yi back to his residence, riding his horse and whipping his whip, he happened to see Xie'er standing outside his yard, waiting anxiously.

    Seeing Cao Ang's return, Xie'er quickly reported: "Young Master, Madam has sent people to urge you several times, saying that she has something important to see you! Go quickly! By the way, the girl you are raising in the outer courtyard has also sent  Someone sent a letter saying that he wanted to tell you something."

    Cao Ang nodded, "My mother must have something important to do, so she sent someone to rush me. Let's do this, I'll go to my mother's place, and you go to Lingshan's place, ask her what's wrong, and tell me when you come back!"

    Seeing that Xie'er was very surprised, Cao Ang scratched his head and said with a smile: "I was so busy during this period that I forgot to tell you. The girl I rescued from the outer courtyard is called Lingshan. She has a good temper. I believe you will do it in the future.  We¡¯ll get along well!¡±

    Cao Ang said a few more words and then left with Xiao Yi, leaving Xie'er standing there in surprise.  How is it possible, how could that girl have the same name as the saint?  Could it be said that a saint must also marry into the Cao family for religious affairs?  No way!

    Not to mention the turmoil in Xie'er's heart, Cao Ang quickly arrived in front of Ding's door and strode in.  Not only did Yu'er not dare to intercept him this time, she also took the initiative to raise the curtain for Cao Ang and led the way diligently.

    Cao Ang followed her with a smile, and soon came to Ding, and asked in a low voice: "Why is mother looking for me? I heard from Xie'er that you have sent people to look for me many times, what is the important matter?  ah?"

    Ding smiled and said to Cao Ang: "I just received a letter from your father today, in which he agreed to adopt you into my name. Moreover, your father praised you very much in the letter, saying that he had given you to your grandfather.  Write a letter and ask him to personally take charge of your adoption. Although your father does not have time to return to Qiao County, considering that you will attend various major occasions in the future, he personally gave you a nickname: Zixiu! From today on, you  It¡¯s Cao Ang and Cao Zixiu!¡±

    Cao Ang was overjoyed, "I have the words, I have the words!"

    Because he is still young, everyone always calls him "Aang". When someone with unclear speech speaks it, it is easy for people to think that he is hiccupping or imitating the braying of a donkey.  Not long ago, Cao Ang made a joke. When he was out running, he heard someone calling him. He quickly ran over to take a look and found that it was the little black donkey in the barn!

    Ding looked at the excited Cao Ang with a smile and said to him: "Your father also talked about some political affairs in Jinan in the letter, and asked you to express your views and send it to him with the letter. It seems that your father has also begun to train your skills.  You are capable of handling things now, you can¡¯t let us down!¡±

    Cao Ang performed an exaggerated military salute, "The last general takes orders!"

    Ding laughed and said, "Look at how stupid you are. Your father will definitely be happy when he sees it. He has always wanted to carry a three-foot sword and conquer the world for the Han family. A little attendant like you is just the right person to sharpen his sword and lead his horse!"  "

    Cao Ang scratched his head, smiled, took the letter handed over by Ding, and read it carefully.

    The more he looked, the more Cao Ang frowned.  In the letter, Cao Cao gave a general introduction to the situation in Jinan. He said that Jinan has more than ten counties, and the county magistrates in eight of them have problems of relying on power and corruption and bending the law. It can be said that they are full of bad records!  In the past, the successive ministers of the country had not dared to abolish them due to the power behind them. Now Cao Cao is willing to punish them, but some time ago, he did not dare to do it rashly because the foundation was not stable.  Cao Cao asked Cao Ang in the letter his opinion on the matter, and asked him to hurry up and write a reply and send it to someone.

    Cao Ang slowly frowned. In the history he knew, Cao Cao vigorously improved the order of Jinan's officialdom, and eight of the ten county magistrates were dismissed at once. So "the traitors fled, and the Shao community was in awe"!  As a Jinan prime minister, Cao Cao is undoubtedly very competent and has won praise from the people of Jinan.  But soon afterwards, Cao Cao was forced to resign and return home under pressure, retreating to the countryside to wait for the opportunity.  Combining the history he had predicted, Cao Ang started to mutter: What should he suggest?

    IfI believe that it is safest to suggest that my father be in harmony with the light, and it should not lead to a counterattack by some dark forces.  But as a passionate young man, even though he traveled to ancient times, Cao Ang always felt a little unwilling!

    Why are these corrupt officials not doing anything practical, but they are burdening the common people with eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling, and committing all kinds of evil?  !  Why can't the common people get rid of them? They can only lower their heads and be obedient people. They can only kowtow and look forward to the so-called Qingtian Grand Master?  !  Why should we have illusions about these corrupt officials, expect them to have some integrity, and expect them to leave a little bit of relief food for the victims while embezzling the national treasury?  !

    Not only could he not accept it emotionally, but also rationally, Cao Ang also knew that his father could not accept this situation either!  Although Cao Ang did not communicate with Cao Cao face to face after time travel, he did pass several letters.  Whether it is the memory left in the body or the historical facts predicted in the mind, his father Cao Cao, at least at this time, is a passionate young man with an ideal complex!  Even if he wrote a letter asking his father to reconcile with him, his father would not agree. His loyalty to the Han Dynasty has not died, and his blood has not yet run cold!

    In this case, Cao Ang was not going to object to his father's handling of these officials in his letter. On the contrary, he would suggest that his father rectify the officialdom of Jinan.  However, the risk is too great, and he must find a way to protect his father!

    Thinking of this, Cao Ang raised the letter and asked Ding: "Mother, has father written to grandfather? Does grandfather know what father thinks?"

    Ding shook her head and said uncertainly: "Probably not. Your father is not a hesitant person. He is always decisive in doing things. Once he decides on something, he rarely asks for other people's opinions. Besides, your father always  I feel like your grandfather is stuck in the old ways and doesn¡¯t bother to discuss many things with him!¡±

    Cao Ang nodded lightly. His father, Cao Cao, is such a person. When dealing with things, he will listen to everyone's opinions. However, once he makes a decision, he will stick to it until the end. He will not look back until he hits the wall.  Will definitely look back.

    Cao Ang thought for a while and then said to Ding: "Mother, these corrupt officials in Jinan can certainly be killed, but the power behind them cannot be underestimated! If they are really easy to deal with, the Prime Minister of Jinan who has been in office for more than ten years will  Are they all corrupt people and just sit back and do nothing?! The trouble is serious, I'd better discuss it with my grandfather!"

    Ding nodded, "Ang'er, what are you saying? Your father is an impulsive person who does things like this. He is too bold and even reckless! You go and discuss the aftermath with your grandfather. I will  It is estimated that your father has already taken action against these people by the time he finished writing this letter!"

    Cao Ang agreed, put the letter in his arms, got up and went to his grandfather to discuss the matter.  It happened that my grandfather had just woken up from his nap and was enjoying himself sitting on a bamboo chair making tea.  Cao Ang handed the letter to his grandfather, and after he read it, he expressed his worries.

    Cao Song nodded, glanced at Cao Ang approvingly, and said in a deep voice: "Aang, no, Zixiu, your concerns are very reasonable! I think Ah Man should also realize this, it's just his pride or maybe  The persistence in his heart makes him unwilling to face these, let alone let them hinder his footsteps! What do you think? "

    "Grandpa, I think you had a lot of connections when you held important positions in the court in the past! Although you have retired to Qiao County now, you can still speak in the court." Cao Ang said in a low voice: "My grandson just has a preliminary idea.  , I hope you can come to Beijing once and use your old connections to pave the way for your father. Lest these corrupt officials' backstage retaliation suddenly arises and catch us off guard!"

    Cao Song nodded slightly: "It's good to take precautions before they happen! It's just that in officialdom, people have always been in a hurry. Although I still have a few idle positions, my influence is not as good as before. I'll give it a try! Anyway,  We, the children of the Cao family, must not be abused by those dirty officials!"

    Cao Ang looked around and saw no one else around, so he whispered: "The bustling world is all for profit; the bustling world is all for profit! Grandpa, our refined salt sales have been very strong recently, but the channels in our hands are limited.  , at most it only covers a few counties around Qiao County, and it is really unable to expand!

    Luoyang is the capital of our Han Dynasty, leading fashion. If my grandfather brings refined salt to Luoyang, it will definitely cause a new round of sales peak!  By then I believe that the powerful people in Luoyang will realize the value of this refined salt.  Grandfather might as well use the sales rights of this refined salt as a bargaining chip to secretly make friends with a few powerful people. Although we lost a little profit, we broadened the sales channels and weaved a more protective alliance for my father and our Cao family.  people network!

    ¡°In this way, even if my father offends important ministers in the government during his crackdown on corrupt officials, we can eliminate the negative influence on him and protect him, so that we won¡¯t be a victim of others!  Of course, the above is just mineJust some preliminary thoughts, and I hope my grandfather can give me more advice!  "

    Cao Song had already stood up and walked around the floor excitedly when he heard him say in a deep voice: "Zixiu, confirming you as my legitimate grandson is the most correct decision that my grandfather and I have made in the past ten years! I believe it.  When you grow up, you will definitely be able to lead my Cao family to become more prosperous! I will get up and go to Beijing right away, so just wait for my good news!"
