Cao Cao was carried back overnight, along with the brothers Cheng Yu and Xiahou. There was no other way. In the situation in Kandahar, it was better for Cao Cao and Cheng Yu to avoid trouble first.
When daybreak comes, the centurions of the legions outside the city know what happened. Cheng Yu and Cao Cao really may have an accident. After all, the soldiers under Cao Cao are not completely loyal to Cao Cao, but just act according to the rules. But now my father-in-law
Your family was exterminated by Cao Cao for no clear reason. Given the general environment of the Han Dynasty, if you seize the opportunity to kill Cao Cao, it can only be considered unlucky.
To be honest, if Cao Cao was really hacked to death by his centurion, then Chen Xi wouldn't even think of sending someone to investigate. You Cao family can just investigate it yourself, and I won't care about it.
Just like Liu Xian said before, if you don't follow the rules, don't rely on others to take revenge. Sun Ce didn't wipe out his whole family back then. Although it caused subsequent disasters, after all, this is the most basic universal morality in society.
Ah, why are you challenging the basic morality of society?
Therefore, in order to prevent Cao Cao from being blown up, it was better to send him back to Chang'an as soon as possible. Cheng Yu followed him back to Chang'an because he was prepared to take the blame.
However, Chen Qun and Chen Xi have some connection, and they know that Chen Xi is too lazy to take care of this kind of thing. Cao Cao and Cheng Yu were hacked to death. Chen Xi will not pursue the case now, but if the two are alive, Chen Xi will not specifically target them.
After all, as far as Chen Xi is concerned, no laws apply to aristocratic families and princes. You can just use your political power to fight each other. I don't care whether you live or die.
As for touching the red line and being bitten by it, that is totally deserved. If you are killed by the red line, that is your business and none of my business!
Of course, if any of you is at fault first and pays off the centurion, then don’t blame me for being rude. Noble families and princes are not suitable for any law, but centurions are suitable for legal control. If you mess around, don’t blame me for letting Li You bite.
After all, I, Chen Xi, have this style. I suggest that you do good to me.
After sending Cao Cao and Cheng Yu away, Xun Yu and Chen Qun found Cao Ang. While gathering the remaining aristocratic families, they checked the information, hoping to clean up this mess as much as possible.
Since Chen Qun had solemnly made the invitation with his own seal, the heads of the major families still came. After Cao Cao left, Xun Yu also determined the exact number of foreign marriages. The situation was quite bad, but he still managed to survive.
It can hold on, after all, when Cao Cao left, he was sure of many things that he was not sure of before.
After Chen Qun gathered all the remaining heads of the aristocratic families, he threw all kinds of accurate materials in front of the existing aristocratic families in an extremely solemn atmosphere.
These materials are not enough to be the reason why those aristocratic families should be exterminated, but they are enough to prove how rich these aristocratic families are.
But no matter how abundant the black information is, it is not enough to justify the extermination of the family, let alone the Jingzhao Du Clan, these things are not even considered a step.
Chen Qun sighed, he knew this was the case, and then handed over the real steps - Cao Cao had gone to Chang'an with the originally agreed upon contract document, which was endorsed by Chen Xi, and would be cashed in with both principal and interest in the future, and every word mentioned above, with
The credit guarantee of the Yingchuan Chen family is true. In this case, the remaining aristocratic families are still willing to sit down and talk.
After all, Chen Qun has already stated that he is willing to be a guarantee, and if Chen Xi is willing to endorse and sign, they will not worry about Cao Cao not honoring it. Even in this case, they can accept it after being fully prepared.
Fight against this time-delaying behavior.
Just procrastinate, the longer you procrastinate, the more interest there will be, and I’m not afraid of not cashing in!
After all, the major families were still confident in defeating Ardashir and capturing Guishuang. However, there were only two reasons for their unwillingness before. One was the land deeds returned to the Cao family and the Xiahou family, and the other was the major families under Cao Cao.
There is some doubt about Cao Cao's credibility.
After all, the capital invested by the major families plus interest, if annualized and so on, can barely conquer the Kabul Valley. Even if it takes a long time, it is not enough to conquer Kabul, and we have to continue to fight. Then the princes like Cao Cao still have to fight.
Calling a prince does not mean he is a wage earner.
The major aristocratic families really couldn't believe in Cao Cao's credibility. If you want to say less, they believed that Cao Cao would repay. However, this situation was not good. For more than ten years, Cao Cao would be working for people like them.
The head of the branch of the aristocratic family on Cao Cao's side couldn't believe it!
Cao Cao's credibility itself has problems. After so many years, is there really no problem?
But if this is the case now, the major families are willing to believe it, because the Han Empire really has the ability to treat Cao Cao as a worker, and Chen Xi endorses it. If Cao Cao doesn't pay back the money, Chen Xi can use Cao Cao's head to conquer all the places occupied by the Cao family.
Cut into pieces and divide.
More importantly, most of these aristocratic families working under Cao Cao know that their own abilities are limited and cannot support the establishment of an independent country, or they are branches of a large family and do not have too much power, so they can only develop collaboratively, etc.
But if they can develop on the back of Cao Cao now, they may not be able to catch up with the people in Central Asia.
With this in mind, this group of people followed Chen Qun's request and Chen Qun endorsed the second contract in the name of the Chen family, indicating that as long as Chen Qun was willing to endorse, they could accept what had happened before.
As for the inappropriate reasons for Cao Cao's killing of the two dozen or so people before, this group of people just pretended that they didn't know that they could develop on the back of Cao Cao. Then those guys who died before, they can agree that it was a price, and it was not them anyway.
The price paid.
Chen Qun himself was mentally prepared to sign a contract with this group of people, so there was no resistance. After Chen Qun signed the contract they drafted, the atmosphere of the remaining families finally became less tense, and they could sit down and have a good time.
Talked.
"Fortunately, I only married 143 daughters." Liu Xian said tiredly, "I barely escaped. If there were more, I would be dead."
"Based on the performance of those people, shouldn't they just go as far as the bottom line in this kind of matter where there is no benefit?" Mao Jie was also very tired. He went out of the city to calm people's hearts. After all, Kandahar
The fire was no joke. Fortunately, he was in the military camp every day. Even if he didn't know the soldiers, the soldiers knew him, which barely stabilized people's hearts.
"You were held down and beaten several times by that person. Can you not be obedient?"
After careful consideration, not to mention marrying a daughter is not considered a loss."
The situation was not as good as Chen Qun thought, nor as bad as Liu Xian thought. Liu Xian judged others by himself, and estimated that there should be three hundred, while Chen Qun considered that group of people were trash, and the order they gave
It's all a combination of good and bad, and there's a high probability that it's just the bottom line data.
In the end, the facts gave Chen Qun a slap in the face. Although the group of people had violated Cao Cao's various orders, they actually fulfilled Chen Xi's orders at a normal level. This was very embarrassing.
Heartbroken.
"On average, there are six people in a family, which is already twice the bottom line. This is because some centurions have been killed in battle over the years, otherwise there would only be more." Chen Qun said helplessly before he got married.
There are four of them. Even if they are only one lineage, in terms of size, there is no substantial difference between Chen Qun and the lineage of a single family under Cao Cao.
"They really gave me a dowry." Xun Yu was equally tired. When this group of families failed to implement orders properly under Cao Cao, they ended up executing an order that no one from Chen Xi knew why and saw no benefit.
They are all so positive.
"And the dowry is slightly higher than the normal level." Xun You said half paralyzed. "Although it is not up to the average level of uncle and Changwen, they still gave back jade, bows and arrows, and swords, and after all the betrothal gifts were discounted,
I returned it with gold, pearls and silver leaves."
Jade articles, bows and arrows, and swords are the things that gentlemen wear these days, and they are things that are carried all year round. In other words, no matter how shady these people are, they are really not messy about marrying their daughters.
Come on, even if you scold their son-in-law, you will give them what you deserve.
This is embarrassing. The so-called stability of Chen Qun and others is based on the fact that these people have a bad attitude towards the lower-level soldiers, look down on their son-in-law, do not interact with them, etc. But now this situation...
There is no going back and forth, but you can tell just by looking at Lin He. Lin He married Liu Xian's daughter and never came to the Liu family, but this does not prevent him from helping Liu Xian when something happens to Liu Xianzhen.
These centurions have never thought about relying on their wives' natal family, let alone climbing up dragons and phoenixes. The other party has a dragging expression on his face and does not want to communicate with them. He doesn't pay much attention to giving gifts during the New Year, but this does not hinder the brother-in-law.
When they were really about to be hacked to death, they helped save their brother-in-law. There was no need to mention any laws and regulations, it was just human nature!
"The question now becomes, how should we deal with these centurions?" Mao Jie said extremely tiredly, "Don't tell me such nonsense as killing them or locking them up. I don't want to refute it, anyway.
If you mention it, whoever will execute it will be fine."
"What should we deal with? Although there are not many people, there is no reason to suddenly deal with the backbone of the grassroots, which will lead to turmoil in the army." Chen Qun leaned on his back, feeling a little tired all over. What is going on? Chen Xi took a leisurely step.
Chess, forcing these people to sit together and think about how to live tomorrow?
"But things will be exposed sooner or later. As I said, even if the family is at fault and they are all killed, there must be something wrong." Liu Xian is now considered an outsider, and he does not speak too politely.
"So sooner or later, these people will connect in tandem."
"Let's talk to those people openly and honestly." Cao Ang, who had been sitting silently watching the exchanges between the advisers, said, "I think concealing it will only make the chaos worse. Failure to communicate and making random decisions will only lead to more trouble.
It’s such a big dilemma, the best way now is to bring them together and have an honest talk.”
"Even if we talk, we can't solve the problem. We are in the wrong." Chen Qun shook his head and said, "To be precise, we have no reason to convince them."
"But if you let them investigate on their own, it will only make the chaos worse, so inform those centurions. If we talk about the matter, at least it won't make it worse." Cao Ang said firmly. Cao Cao has already sent him away. As the crown prince, Cao Ang
The entire force must be shouldered.
"That's right." Xun Yu nodded, "Let's talk about it. The situation won't get worse. Since it has already happened, hiding it won't solve the problem."
"Yes, tell them the truth and the reason." Cao Ang nodded and said.
"I can't tell you the reason. If you tell me the reason, our current insufficient supplies may suffer a new round of runs, which will lead to an overall collapse." Xun Yu shook his head and said, "I can only tell a part of it so that they can
Things you know.”
"That makes no difference." Cao Ang shook his head, "Inform those centurions. We have cleaned up so many aristocratic families and recovered so many land deeds and documents. They are enough to withstand a round of redemption, so we must be honest and honest.
Tell them why, and maybe we can solve the problem, after all, there are more tickets than these things."
Xun You nodded. He agreed more with Cao Ang's thinking. He also hated falsification, and if you lied about some things, it would be easy for loopholes to appear, causing the original trivial matter to completely get out of control.
"There are a lot of cashed bills but little in kind, and those aristocratic families used the cashed bills to exchange these things from their hands. Even if it is true that some soldiers are greedy, as long as those people understand what is going on, some of them can be curbed to some extent.
Angry." Cao Ang picked up a land deed for the Helmand River Irrigation Area and said that the family must have exchanged the promissory note with someone they knew well.
So based on the principle of proximity and trust, in fact, there is a high probability that this thing will be handed over to his son-in-law for exchange. After all, only these people can exchange enough land deeds from their own soldiers and soldiers' township parties, and
Only then can the promissory notes in their hands be digested.
"But this promissory note is going to be cancelled." Cao Ang picked up another promissory note and said, "So if we talk openly and honestly, they should understand what situation they are in, even if there are still centurions who are dissatisfied with us.
At least his behavior is no longer focused on seeking revenge against us."
"Allow severance later, with severance pay." Cao Ang sighed and said, "Even if this doesn't solve all the problems, at least it won't completely ruin it."
"In this case, there will probably be a lot of centurions leaving." Mao Jie frowned, "The backbone of this level represents the organizational strength of the legion. If more people leave, it will affect the combat effectiveness. I don't think Aldashir is
Blind man, he must know the chaos we are in now."
"We need foreign enemies now." Cao Ang said seriously.
Unlike Cao Cao, who is grounded in the earth, Cao Ang is grounded in energy.
Just slip away, get through today, and celebrate the New Year next week
