Chapter 198

Xu Du, Sikong mansion.

The backyard is a relatively remote yard with flowers and plants competing for beauty and pleasant scenery. Although the courtyard is not big, there is a small pavilion in it, and a round table made of stone is arranged under the pavilion.

Next to the round table sat a woman of 28 years old.

Although the woman is young, her cheeks are happy and angry, especially her Phoenix eyes, which are dark and bright, showing wisdom and intelligence. She sat reading quietly, showing a quiet and elegant temperament.

This woman is Cao Jie, the daughter of Cao Cao. She is not Cao Cao's eldest daughter, nor Cao Cao's legitimate daughter. She was born in Cao Cao's concubine's room and has no position in the family.

Fortunately, she was talented and loved by Cao Cao since she was a child.

So, it has its own yard.

Most of the time, Cao Jie stayed in the yard. In her spare time, she reads books and tidies up the flowers and plants. She has a quiet life and doesn't feel bored.

"Step on it! Step on it

A sound of walking came from outside the yard.

But Cao Jie's servant girl came back. The servant girl's face was flustered and anxious. She came to Cao Jie's side, panicked and said: "girl, it's not good."

Cao Jie put down the books in his hand, not impatient, light way: "what's the matter?"

The servant girl said: "when Sikong returned to Xudu, it was said that Sikong failed to attack Zhang Xiu. Cao Chun, Yu Jin and Cao Anmin all became prisoners of Zhang Xiu. Sikong wants to make peace with Zhang Xiu and is ready to marry her. "

Cao Jie Feng's eyes narrowed, and immediately understood, and asked: "is it me who is the candidate for the marriage?"

"Yes

The servant girl nodded and answered.

Cao Jie's beautiful cheek, with a trace of stiffness, but in a flash, calm again, but said: "marriage, since ancient times, is the fate of parents. The father has arrangements, and the daughter has no room for comment. If you marry Zhang Xiu, marry her. "

As the daughter of Cao Cao, Cao Jie had the consciousness of getting married.

After all, it's a royal family.

It's impossible to make your own decisions about marriage.

The servant girl stamped her foot and said in a hurry: "Miss, the problem is not to marry Zhang Xiu. I heard that Zhang Xiu married a wife. If you marry in the past, you can only be Zhang Xiu's concubine. You can't be his wife. "

Brush!

Cao Jie's face changed.

She thought that she married Zhang Xiu as Zhang Xiu's wife, but she didn't think it was such a situation.

You know, she is Cao Cao's daughter.

It's the daughter of Sikong!

Cao Cao's daughter is a concubine, which surprised Cao Jie.

Cao Jie took a deep breath. She looked sad and said, "my father has decided. What else can I say? Even if you marry a cat and a dog, you can't help it. What information have you got from Zhang Xiu? "

She knows her servant girl. She's always well-informed and knows something about the outside world.

The servant girl said: "there are not many people who know Zhang Xiu's situation, and there are not many information that the servant girl inquires about. All I know is that Zhang Xiu was born in the Xiliang army. She has excellent martial arts. Even Dian Wei's archery is not as good as Zhang Xiu. The rest is not very clear. "

"Better than pawey?"

The desolation in Cao Jie's eyes deepened.

She had met dianway.

Dian Wei has been with Cao Cao's side, inseparable. His waist was round, his arm was broad, his mouth was broad, his face was rough, and he was totally thick.

In Cao Jie's mind, he came up with a more powerful figure than Dian Wei, even a beard full of jaw. He was a crude northwest man.

Think of here, Cao Jie cold can't help shivering.

She was helpless.

"Alas..."

Cao Jie sighed, with a faint sadness in his eyes.

The maid stood aside, feeling down. When she saw Cao Jie's look, she said helplessly, "girl, I'll go to inquire again. What if Zhang Xiu is pretty good?"

"No need!"

Cao Jie shook his head.

After all, she is a member of the royal family. A woman like her can only be used for marriage.

"Step on it! Step on it

Suddenly, another voice came from the gate of the courtyard.

There was a little sharp voice, first came: "Oh, sister Jie is really lucky. It's said that this piece of embroidery is also very good. It's very powerful. "

The voice comes first before the person arrives.

Then came a woman with a sharp jaw, a pretty face, thin lips, and a little bit of foxy between her eyebrows and eyes.

She's at the front.

This is Cao Xian, the daughter of Cao Cao. She is older than Cao Jie and has not been married yet.

Cao Xian was followed by a 12-year-old woman who was also Cao Cao's daughter, Cao Hua. Cao Xian and Cao Hua are a mother compatriots, quite close.

Their relationship with Cao Jie was not very harmonious. The reason was that the previous generation began to compete for favor. Cao Jie's mother is hostile to Cao Xian's and Cao Hua's mother, and the relationship between them is not good.As soon as they entered, Cao Xian put a faint smile on his face and said with false congratulations: "sister Jie, my sister is here to congratulate me. I heard that my father planned to marry Zhang Xiu and marry you to Zhang Xiu as a concubine. Oh, it's the so-called better to be a concubine than a wife. It's not bad that you can be Zhang Xiu's concubine. "

Cao Hua added: "I've heard that Zhang Xiu is stronger than Dian Wei and is a big man. Oh, my sister is so petite, you have to be careful. "

Cao Hua was a young man. When he changed his voice, he had a very ugly voice.

Both of them came to run on Cao Jie.

The servant girl stood by and heard Cao Xian and Cao Hua's words. Her face was very angry. She gritted her teeth and said, "hum, how is the girl? It has nothing to do with you."

"Well, that's right?"

Cao Xian glared at the servant girl with fierce eyebrows and scolded: "I'm talking to sister Jie, and our sisters are chatting. If you dare to chew your tongue, I'll tear your mouth."

The servant girl is not afraid.

She was about to speak, but Cao Jie stopped her.

Cao Jie put down the book in his hand, stood up, glanced over CaO Xian and Cao Hua, a pair of Fengmu not angry from power, light said: "as sister Xian said, would rather be male concubine, not mediocre wife."

"My father asked me to marry Zhang Xiu for my own good."

"My father is a hero in the world and everyone respects him. Zhang Xiu can resist her father's army with a weak force. Such a person, even if he is a military general under his father's command, is hard to reach. "

"It's not bad to marry Zhang Xiu."

"Although I am married outside, I have never heard of Zhang Xiu's bad deeds."

"I think he's good, too."

Cao Jie continued, "sister Xian and sister Hua are likely to stay in Xudu city in the future. The man you marry may be the general of your father, or his offspring. "

"Maybe we can marry a dandy. After all, our purpose is marriage."

"Although I married first, now it seems that I am married far away from home, what can I expect in the future? What if the Minister of the court criticizes his father and needs Zhang Xiu to help him? "

Cao Jie said: "since my father chose Zhang Xiu, I have no regrets and no criticism."

What she said was full of momentum.

Even after cutting the belt, both Cao Xian and Cao Hua's faces changed slightly. They came together to humiliate Cao Jie. However, what Cao Jie said made them nervous.

They are all women of the Cao family and will marry in the future. Cao Cao has the final say in

's marriage.

The people they married may not be better than Cao Jie.

Cao Jie glanced at Cao Xian and Cao Hua and continued: "if sister Xian and sister Hua come to celebrate, they don't have to. After all, my father has just been defeated by Zhang Xiu, and I've heard that all the officials in the court are criticizing my father. "

"If you have a heart, don't make trouble for your father."

"Just imagine, if you come to stimulate me, I can't think of it and hang myself. When the time comes, I'm afraid my father will be angry with you when he's not married. "

"What's more, when there is no suitable person to marry, we can only marry sister Xian. After all, except me, you are the most suitable daughter for my father

There is a cold light in the eyes of Cao Jiefeng.

"You, you..."

When Cao Xian heard the speech, he shivered with fright.

She was startled by Cao Jie.

Not to mention, she was really afraid of Cao Jie's drastic actions. She has known Cao Jie for many years, and she knows her temperament. She is a very strong woman. She is gentle on the surface, but she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside.

If Cao Jie commits suicide, she is the only one in the family who is suitable for marriage. When the time comes, she will be sent out. Then she will regret to death.

"Sister, let's go!"

Cao Xian's charming cheek smoked, dare not provoke Cao Xian again, take Cao Hua to leave quickly.

Cao Jie looked at the back of Cao Xian's sister, with a touch of helplessness on her face. After she sat down, she sighed. She said it very well, but she accepted her fate.

I hope Zhang Xiu can treat her better.
