Chapter 313: Banquet(2/2)
"General Qiu doesn't even give me the respect of the general manager?" Huaiyu asked with a smile.
Qiu Xinggong sat on the horse and looked at Wu Huaiyu condescendingly. After a while, he said, "Of course I have to give you the face of General Manager Wu. It depends on the General Manager's face. Go and sit down."
Huaiyu asked people to send meat, vegetables and other rewards to the six thousand soldiers stationed outside the city, and then they entered the city together.
A group of people went to Cao's house for a banquet.
Wu Huaiyu also mobilized his own bodyguard, which totaled 200 people. Then Doulu Huairang also led 200 people, Su Lie led 100 people, and Niu Jianwu led 100 people.
The three generals Qiu Xinggong, Liu Lancheng and Li Yuanyan also led a hundred people each.
The final result was that Wu Huaiyu took hundreds of civilian and military generals and more than a thousand personal guards to the Cao family for a banquet.
The Cao family saw so many elite soldiers in armor and spears approaching from a distance, and they were so frightened that they thought they were raiding their home.
Even Cao Taigong was not calm after hearing this. When Wu Huaiyu and others arrived on horseback, they realized that it was a false alarm, but they were really scared.
Grand Duke Cao quickly ordered some ginseng root and chewed it to replenish his energy.
This old heart couldn't bear the shock.
Although Wu Huaiyu was all smiles and brought gifts, Cao Taigong became more and more wary of the young Changshi. These thousands of soldiers were said to be accompanying guards, but the Cao family was surrounded by water, even directly in the front courtyard and corridors. standing,
If Wu Huaiyu says a word, the Cao family will be gone.
This feeling of the sword being unsheathed and pressed against the vest really makes one's hands and feet weak.
Cao Xuan went back to the backyard to change his clothes. The new clothes he had changed into were already soaked with sweat.
"Go and tell Thirteenth Niang to dress up well and behave well in front of Wu Changshi when I call her later."
"The Grand Duke wants to give Thirteen Niangs to Wu Changshi? Didn't he originally say that he would give them to two concubines?"
Cao Taigong looked at his pale self in the mirror. He didn't have much time left. If he fell down, the Cao family couldn't rely on Cao Xuan, right? He was not as ruthless as Peng Laizi, and he was not as smart as Liu Xian.
At this moment, Taigong Cao felt endless pressure. As big a family as the Peng family could collapse at any time, the Cao family could also collapse at any time.
For the sake of the Cao family, let alone giving his granddaughter Thirteen Niang to Wu Huaiyu as a concubine, if he wanted a few more, Cao Taigong was willing to give them to him and let him choose. He only hoped to get Wu Huaiyu's protection.
They used to think that they were very strong in Lingzhou, but now they know what it means to sit in a well and watch the sky.
