Chapter 149
The mansion is completely renewed.
Not only did they add a lot of furnishings, but the servants put on new clothes, but more importantly, everyone's faces were filled with a bright smile like the rising sun. The joy brought by hope changed everyone's mental state from the inside out.
Seeing Cao Miao walk by, everyone bowed and bowed, with awe in their eyes that they had never felt before.
Cao Miao was a little suspicious and even a little uneasy. He discussed with Cao Zhi that the father and son were both bright and dark, and most people in the mansion should not know the meaning of his existence. Now that so many people saluted him, was it because Cao Zhi couldn't bear to bury his credit and explained the truth?
"What's going on?" Cao Miao asked Lao Song.
Old Song couldn't help but smile in his eyebrows. "The prince chased Wang Ji for thousands of miles and avenged the king, which is so satisfying."
Cao Miao suddenly realized, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help laughing, "It's not so exaggerating. It's still a thousand miles to chase after it, at most a hundred miles."
"It's all the same." Old Song waved his hand very proudly, automatically ignoring this small detail. "Prince, can I ask something?"
"What's up?"
"Did you kill Wang Tai?"
Cao Miao looked at Lao Song and said nothing. Seeing this, Lao Song quickly explained: "The subordinates have no other intentions. Wang Tai's dog thief bullied the king, and we were also very harmful to him and wanted to kill him long ago."
Cao Miao remembered. In order to win over Han Dong, Wang Tai transferred two women from the mansion to serve Han Dong, one of whom was Lao Song's daughter Ahua. Although Han Dong was injured at the time and could not do anything to Ahua, the shame was real. Lao Song and his friends hated Wang Tai more practical and more full of reasons.
"I heard from Ah Hu that your Ah Hua has a good impression of Han Dong?"
"Ah?" Old Song was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "What does that silly girl know, don't pay attention to her. What kind of good person can school affairs be? If Han Dong hadn't been injured, who would have known how despicable it would be. As for his appearance, I think it's just like that, it doesn't match the word "Handsome."
Cao Miao said meaningfully: "Old Song, let me tell you something. I have become an official, and now I am a school clerk, and I am still a captain."
Old Song was slightly stunned and then smiled. "The school affairs are good, the school affairs are good. Congratulations to the prince, and congratulations to the prince."
"I went back to write a letter and transferred Ahua to Luoyang. There were still two people waiting in my room."
"Oh--" Old Song smiled and agreed loudly.

Cao Miao returned to his yard and looked at the brand new furnishings, and was a little uncomfortable. He sat in the hall for a while, feeling that the world was impermanent.
Although the emperor today is not a golden word, and has a word of nothing, and is subject to many constraints by the ministers of aristocratic families. If he deals with their father and son, it is a one-on-one sentence, life and death will be taken away. It will not only make you live as bad as a prisoner, but also make him a true master and enjoy endless wealth and luxury.
Just a few months ago, Cao Zhi was worried about the banquet to welcome Cao Shuang.
Ah Hu, Qingtao and others were very happy. They ran around in their room. Zhishu, who was cheerful, was even wrapped in a new quilt and rolled on the bed. Hong Xing, who had been staying behind, was already used to all this, but she was very calm. She was just disappointed with Cao Miao for so long and took everyone with her, but she didn't feel very disappointed. She could tie the donkey with her pout.
"Hongxing." Cao Miao called Hongxing over and pinched her little face. "I'm fat again."
Hongxing broke free shyly. Cao Miao had previously instructed to give priority to the food of the people in the yard. Now the food in the mansion is getting better and better. Not only are there meat and eggs every day, but also various snacks. Cao Miao was not there, and she was the only one in the yard. She couldn't help but be unable to control her mouth and would get fat if she accidentally did.
"From tomorrow, I will practice martial arts with Qingtao."
"Oh." Hong Xing was overjoyed and responded crisply.
Cao Miao again told Zhishu with a naked face, letting them strengthen their exercise and pay attention to their diet. If anyone gets fat, they will be driven out directly. He doesn't want the girl to become an aunt, and he is a Russian aunt. He strengthened the food supply to make them grow muscles, not fat.
Zhishu, Ruhua, was a visitor to Princess Deyang's mansion a few days ago. He ate, slept and slept every day, and he also gained a lot of weight. He pinched the fat on his waist, stuck out his tongue in embarrassment, and agreed repeatedly.
Cao Miao checked the changes in the courtyard and adjusted the alert. There were men sent from the palace outside the palace on duty, and the mansion was more abundant. Lao Song brought ten guards to be responsible for the safety of Cao Miao's courtyard. Cao Miao handed over the safety of the courtyard outside the courtyard to Lao Song, and A Hu was still in charge of the courtyard.
After a trial, Ah Hu gradually matured. He knew that Cao Miao would definitely be retaliated after killing Wang Ji, and safety should not be taken lightly. Therefore, he was very careful and after checking it, he decided to renovate the courtyard wall, blocked several safety hazards, and built another building to guard against it.
After checking Ah Hu's renovation plan, Cao Miao ordered someone to call Cao Zhi.
Cao Zhi came soon, wearing a brocade dress, fragrant, powder on his face, red lips and white teeth, which made Cao Miao frown. Seeing that Cao Miao's face was not good, Cao Zhi was embarrassed and explained stammeringly: "I just received the visitors, but I didn't have time to change them."
"What's the case for visitors?" Cao Miao calmed down his face, but his disgusting attitude was still the same. "A big man, is it disgusting with incense and powder?"
"Cough..." Cao Zhi did not dare to say anything, so he had to cough dryly. He didn't want to do this, but the atmosphere in Luoyang was like this. The nobles would smear incense and powder, otherwise they would be misfit and would be suspected of being rude. Cao Zhi was in the palace all day long, and Cao Miao was not seen. He could only bear the responsibility for the welcome and sent him, and he was forced to have no choice.
“Are there many customers these days?”
Speaking of the serious matter, Cao Zhi returned to calmness. He took out a long list from his sleeve, with fifty or sixty people. "These are all visited recently. My father and brother were not at home. Most of them left their gifts and left. I didn't see him. I was young and could not visit him again, so I had to remember the names and wait for my father and brother to come back before dealing with it."
Cao Miao took the list, glanced at it, and then saw a familiar name: Cang Ji.
"Cang Ji was released?" Cao Miao asked.
"Cangwu died in prison. There was insufficient evidence of Cang Ji's murder, but he was not strict in control and was exempted from being a commoner. He came to the mansion to apologize. I didn't see him, so he left the gift."
Cao Miao was angry, but he didn't say anything, and continued to look down. He saw Sun Hao's name again, and after asking, he found out that Sun Yong was also dismissed and is now unemployed in Luoyang. Because he had to repay the 500-yuan stolen money, he was living a very tight life. He sent Sun Hao to visit, and wanted to ask Cao Zhi for help, hoping to get a half-time position. Everyone knows that Cao Zhi is now a sage, and can speak in front of the emperor.
"Where does Sun Yong live? I want to see him."
Cao Zhi was prepared. "Brother, I'll let him come to see you. The place where he lives is full of people and is not very convenient."
"What's inconvenient?" Cao Miao stood up. "I owe them father and son, so I can't help but repay it."
