Early the next morning, Cao Ang had a hurried breakfast and came to see Cao Cao.

He wanted to go outside the city to try out his newly acquired Li Guang's shooting skills.

So in the name of practicing archery, he came to ask Cao Cao for a pair of precious eagle bows.

Cao Ang knew that Lao Cao had collected many treasures, including a twelve-stone bow, which was said to be the treasured bow of Flying General Li Guang three hundred years ago.

For an ordinary strong man, ten people would have to work together to pull it apart.

Regardless of whether it was used by Li Guang back then, there are only a few twelve-stone bows in the world that can be called treasured bows.

It's also quite suitable for using Li Guang's divine archery skills.

Cao Cao did not refuse Cao Ang's request.

In Cao Cao's heart, his great career will be handed over to this eldest son in the future, let alone a bow?

What's more, Cao Cao kept it just for display, because he couldn't draw it at all...

But after Cao Cao ordered the bow to be given to Cao Ang, he did not let him practice archery outside the city. Instead, he stopped Cao Ang and said,"Zixiu, Just now Xun Yu sent news. Yuan Shao sent his counselor Tian Feng as an envoy to deliver gifts to the emperor. He has arrived outside the city.

When the court is held, you can come with my father.

After the court is over, go practice archery."

When Cao Ang heard this, he didn't object.

Knowing that this was Cao Cao's training for his eldest son, he led him to show up more and brush up his reputation.

At the same time, Cao Ang thought to himself:"Yuan Shao would be so kind. What kind of gift would he give to the emperor?

I remember that the history books did not mention that Yuan Shao sent gifts to the emperor in the second year of Jian'an. It did mention that after the Battle of Wancheng, Yuan Shao sent a letter to Cao Cao, saying Quite arrogant and sarcastic.

At that time, Cao Cao was defeated in Wancheng and his eldest son Cao Ang died. General Dian Wei was furious and wanted to conquer Yuan Shao, but felt that he was not as powerful as Yuan Shao.

So Guo Jia Then he put forward the famous theory of ten victories and ten defeats.

Yuan Shao had ten defeats, while Cao Cao had ten victories.

Thinking about it, maybe this time...

Using the excuse of giving a gift to the emperor, he took the opportunity to humiliate the man who returned from the Battle of Wancheng without success. Cao Cao……"

With such speculation, Cao Ang went to court with Cao Cao

……

"The emperor has an edict, and he declares that he will not go to Tian Feng in Jizhou to pay his respects!"

Above the Xudu court hall, as the eunuchs sang, a tall and thin figure stepped up to the hall.

It was Yuan Shao's envoy, Jizhou Biejia Tian Feng.

Of course, in name, Jizhou Biejia was a prefecture and county of the Han Dynasty. Officials, so when the edict was issued to Tian Feng, they were called officials, not envoys.

"Your Majesty, Jizhou, bid farewell to Tian Feng and join the Emperor!

On the orders of the general Yuan Shao, the shepherd of Jizhou, he presented a congratulatory gift to the emperor."

On the throne, the young emperor Liu Xie was wearing a dark red imperial robe and twelve crowns. He did not speak immediately, but looked slightly sideways at Sikong Cao Cao.

Seeing Cao Cao slightly nodding, Liu Xie The young emperor finally said:"This is not the year of the year, so I don't know what gift the general can give me."

Tian Feng didn't squint, but he could see all this with the corner of his eye.

Cao Cao didn't nod, and the emperor didn't even dare to speak. This made Tian Feng's eyes show a trace of anger:"Your Majesty, the general has recently , two new treasures were obtained.

The Qianli Falcon is the best among falcons.

First, the deer-chasing dog is a superior hunting dog.

The general did not dare to keep these treasures for himself, so he sent his ministers to present them to the emperor."

After Tian Feng said these words, everyone above Xu Du's court, including Cao Cao and the Emperor Liu Xie, all had expressions.

Cao Ang's current seniority and position are still low. He currently holds the position of Cavalry Commander, standing among the courtiers and generals. After listening to Tian Feng's words, his eyes narrowed.

It sounds understandable to send a hunting eagle dog to the emperor, but the name of this dog is a little interesting.

Deer chasing dog!

When Qin lost his deer , the whole world chased it, and finally Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, succeeded in the deer competition, and the Han Dynasty had the world for four hundred years.

Now Yuan Shao presented a hound, but in the name of chasing deer, it must have something to do with it.

Cao Ang's eyes narrowed slightly, and something good will happen next After watching the play.

The courtiers came forward, Sikong Cao Cao remained calm, and the Emperor Liu Xie continued to speak:"Oh, then let's bring those eagle dogs up and have a look.

Tian Feng cupped his hands and said,"I obey the order.""

After that, Tian Feng came to the outside of the palace and brought up two attendants. They were said to be two attendants, but they looked like two falconers and dog trainers.

I saw one person holding an arm, and on his arm There fell a divine eagle.

The eagle had sharp eyes, bright feathers, and a ferocity that wanted to choose people and devour them. It was the best at first glance.

As for the other person, he was leading a hound, which was a thin dog.

This dog His eyes are like jade, his neck is thin, his legs are long, and his back is like a bow. He is considered the best among thin dogs.

But compared with that falcon, he is much inferior.

In this era, there were few pastimes, and the emperors and generals often used to travel. Hunting is a pleasure, driving eagles and fighting dogs, chasing prey in the wild.

Therefore, everyone present is very knowledgeable and can see the quality and difference between the falcon and the hound. At this time, Cao Cao slowly said:"Mr. Tian Feng, why This top-quality falcon is called Qianli Falcon, but this thin dog is slightly inferior to this Qianli Falcon in appearance, but it has been given a domineering name like a deer-chasing dog.

Could it be that the general has some rebellious intentions and wants to compete with the Han Dynasty?"

Cao Cao is not stupid. Of course he can see that Tian Feng is not a good person. This deer-chasing dog has some intentions, and most likely it is aimed at him.

So he preemptively puts the word"chasing deer" on Yuan Shao's head.

Tian Feng snorted coldly. He said:"Sikong is wrong. Although General Yuan has extraordinary talents, he is far away in Jizhou, guarding the emperor's side.

Just like this thousand-mile falcon, it flies thousands of miles to hunt for its master.

This deer-chasing dog, on the other hand, accompanies its master, chasing deer and catching rabbits for him, and guarding the door in order to obtain the food rewarded by his master.

If one day, the food given by the owner cannot satisfy the appetite of the deer chasing dog, I am afraid that the dog will turn its back on the owner and eat people!"

When Tian Feng said these words, there was an uproar in the court.

Anyone could hear the meaning of this.

Tian Feng compared Yuan Shao to a thousand-mile falcon that was released by his master, and belittled the Deer Chasing Dog as a housekeeping dog, and even Said that when the deer-chasing dog is not fed enough, it will bite its owner.

It is clearly comparing Cao Cao, who is close to the emperor, to a watchdog guarding the door!

It also insinuates that Cao Cao is very ambitious and may bite the emperor in the future... some feelings Although the courtiers of the Han Dynasty were shocked by Tian Feng's bold confession, they said nothing and were even relieved.

Because Tian Feng said what they thought but dared not say.

And the civil and military officials under Cao Cao They were furious on the spot:"Tian Feng, you are so bold!"

"Tian Feng is rude and dares to slander Sikong!"

"Yuan Shao, the old dog, humiliated Sikong and bullied others too much. I will kill him!"

Cao Cao on the side couldn't help but darken after hearing this.

He looked at the indignant Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun and others, feeling quite tired.

I heard that Yuan Shao Tianfeng was using hounds to humiliate Yin and Yang, but I just pretended not to know and then counterattacked. Okay.

By making this clear, don't you really put me, Cao Cao, in the category of hounds? Are you convinced that I, Cao Cao, am a dog?

And Cao Ang was standing aside, his thighs were almost swollen.

Of course, he was not because of Tian Feng's humiliation of Cao Cao. Angry, after all, the power of words, whoever is angry will be stupid.

Being too angry will do no good, it will only hurt yourself like Wang Lang who was scolded to death by Zhuge Liang.

He regretted that Cao Hong and the others spoke too quickly and did not clarify what they said. The opportunity was left to Cao Ang.

Looking at Cao Cao's dark face, Cao Ang knew that Cao Cao was very resentful at the moment. This was full of negative energy!

In the end, Cao Hong, Xia Houdun and the others suffered from Cao Cao's resentment, but not from Cao Ang. In his hand...

If Cao Cao knew what Cao Ang was thinking at this moment, I'm afraid he would regret giving birth to this rebellious son on the spot...
