Lively and fragrant

The main entrance of Cao Mansion is wide open and decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.

There is also a brazier placed on the threshold. When Cao Peng enters the door, he must step over the brazier to get rid of the bad luck brought out from prison.

Bad luck!

That’s right, it’s bad luck!

In Zhang's opinion, Cao Peng must have been contaminated by bad luck, otherwise he would not be so unlucky.

A huge fire burned eight thousand of Yuan Shao's men; although the battle of Xiaotan was not a seven-in-one battle, it was still a great achievement.

If coupled with the previous cracking of the Luoyang case and the earlier Battle of Quyang and the Battle of Xiapi, Cao Peng's contribution in four years was enough to make him a general. However, after the Battle of Xiapi, due to personal reasons

When Lü Bu's family members were released, their merits and demerits were balanced, and they were dismissed from their official positions; but this time, Cao Nan was injured again, and Cao Peng angrily broke into the general's mansion of the auxiliary state, and was imprisoned for four months, and in the end he became a white man.

Although the rank is retained, but...

Yueqi Xiaowei, a powerful official position with a monthly salary of one hundred dendrobium, was just gone.

"After Ah Fu was released from prison last time, he didn't get rid of his bad luck."

Zhang took Cao Nan's hand and asked suddenly.

"Last time?"

"When we first came to Xudu, didn't Ah Fu get into a fight with someone and end up in jail?

I think it must be because Ah Fu came out that time and didn't let him step over the brazier to get rid of his bad luck. Otherwise, how could he have been so unlucky in the past two years? Every time he makes a great contribution, he will inevitably cause a big disaster. This time

, we must make things right."

What Zhang said made Cao Nan nod his head repeatedly, and even Huang Yueying believed it.

That's right, it must be some bad luck, otherwise how could it be so unlucky?

The charcoal fire in the brazier was raging, making Cao Peng a little dizzy.

After crossing the brazier, Mrs. Hong stopped him and said, "Ah Fu, the bath water is ready... You guys, please don't leave. Step over the brazier for me, and then go take a bath to get rid of the bad luck. Ziyou, don't go back."

Hide, you are the first one, hurry up, don’t waste time."

Mrs. Hong is full of energy and has a loud voice.

Several domestic slaves stepped forward and pushed Xia Houlan and others down to the side room next to them. There was a huge wooden bathtub in which the water was boiling very hot.

Cao Peng discovered that besides Mrs. Hong, there were some domestic slaves at the gate.

Neither Cao Ji nor Zhang is here...

"Auntie, where is my mother?"

"The old lady is inside, but you are not allowed to see them unless you have bad luck, otherwise you will also be unlucky."

What the hell is this?

However, Cao Peng also understood the meaning.

Thinking about the past two years, he was really unlucky. He was promoted quickly, but he also lost his official position quickly. Although Deng Ji couldn't compare with Cao Peng's promotion speed, he was promoted steadily. In four years, he went from a remote small county to

The county magistrate has now become a high-ranking official with a salary of more than two thousand stone.

I can't help but think of Deng Ji. If you don't see it, the king bought Deng Fan, and now he has a salary of thousands of stones.

Not to mention Bu Zhao, with a real thousand stones and a monthly salary of eighty dew, he can be regarded as a small prince.

Only those who followed Cao Peng, such as Xiahoulan and Kanze, have never been promoted. After finally becoming an official, when he heard that Cao Peng was dismissed, Kanze didn't even become the chief clerk and went home directly.

Hao Zhao and Han De simply resigned from their official positions, left the camp with four hundred black men, and stationed themselves at Cao's farm. These people could be considered loyal, but they were indeed unlucky.

I walked out of the prison with joy, but I didn't want to have such trouble entering my home.

Cao Peng scratched his head and, under the leadership of Madam Hong, walked to a small hut on the side.

In the past two years, Aunt Hong has gained weight!

Compared to when he was in Jiyangdeng Village, he seems to be more aggressive...

"Afu, come into the house."

In the entire Cao Mansion, only Madam Hong was qualified to call Cao Peng by his nickname. This was specially requested by Mrs. Zhang.

Cao Peng rubbed his nose, pushed open the door with some helplessness, and stepped into the hut. He saw that the hut was filled with water vapor, and a bathtub almost as tall as a person was placed in the middle of the room. The water vapor was steaming from the wooden barrel.

Next to it stood a little maid, her thin clothes wet with water mist, clinging to her body, outlining graceful curves. She was vigorously stirring the water in the barrel, and turned around when she heard the sound.

"Xiao Luan?"

She has a beautiful face, but I don't know whether it's because the temperature in the room is too high or it's due to shyness, but her little face is flushed red.

When Bu Luan saw it was Cao Peng, he immediately smiled happily. After taking two steps, he suddenly noticed something and let out a scream.

"Xiaoluan, Xiaoluan...what happened?"

From the next room, another maid ran out.

The clothes are thin and cling tightly to the body, perfectly blocking the extremely soft and graceful curves.

"Sir, you are back!"

"Xiao Luan, Xiao Huan?"

Cao Peng was also startled. Looking at the two almost naked little maids, he was a little confused.

Damn, this body is so developed...

"Sir, please take off your clothes."

Bu Luan suppressed his shyness and stepped forward to take off his clothes for Cao Peng.

Cao Peng was so frightened that he quickly backed away, "Loose your clothes? What clothes should you loosen..."

"Sir, if you want to get bad luck, how can you not take off your clothes? Do you want to wash them with your clothes on?"

Guo Huan looked confused, but it made Cao Peng's blood boil again. Tongyan Nasha... It really is Tongyan Nasha! Cao Peng took a deep breath, forced a smile and said: "Xiaoluan, Xiaohuan, I can do it myself.

.”

"No, the old lady said she wants us to serve you here...otherwise, we won't be with you again in the future."

"this……"

Cao Peng was still somewhat willing in his heart.

However, it was a bit embarrassing to ask him to take off his clothes in front of two beautiful maids who were already well developed. Guo Huan and Buluan were very resolute and insisted that this was Zhang's order. In desperation, Cao Huan

Peng half-heartedly took off his clothes. However, he still wrapped himself in a pair of loose pants of his own invention, and jumped into the tub almost naked.

hiss……

The water was so hot that Cao Peng gritted his teeth.

There seems to be a very weird smell inside.

"What's in here?"

"The evil-repelling talisman water that Madam requested."

Cao Peng sat down in the tub, took off his clothes and threw them aside.

Although Cao Ren was taking care of him in prison, he could only take cold showers. Counting the days, he had not had such a comfortable hot shower in four months. Cao Peng buried his body in the bucket and closed it comfortably.

The eyes felt extremely refreshed. At this time, Guo Huan and Buluan were taking a leisurely time with a grapefruit.

Guandu, Yuan Jun’s camp.

It has been nearly four months since the army arrived at Guandu in March.

Hundreds of thousands of troops were trapped in the small area of ​​Guandu, fighting fiercely, losing troops and generals, spending countless money and food, but still making no progress.

This also made Yuan Shao feel extremely tortured.

The high spirits he had when he first set off for the expedition have all gone after experiencing successive setbacks.

Yuan Shao now also began to feel hesitant, not knowing how long this war would last.

The atmosphere in the Chinese military tent was very depressing.

Even Guo Tu, who is usually the most eloquent, has become extremely silent.

Xu You stepped into the big tent, bowed his hands and said, "My lord."

"Ziyuan, what's the matter?"

Xu You didn't notice the alienation in Yuan Shao's words. In the past, when he came to see Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao would greet him warmly and sit down holding hands. But today, Yuan Shao behaved very coldly, or to describe it as indifferent.

, may be more appropriate.

"My lord, I caught a trick of Mr. Cao today."
