Chapter 22 Behind the scenes

Xiao Yi put the hay in his hand tightly and handed it under the guillotine. While cutting the grass, he said to Lao Zhao: "Uncle Zhao, this time when you go out to hunt, you have to choose a good horse for our young master. You must be more gentle. Don't dare to overturn the young master and fall off the horse like the last time!"

"Okay!" Lao Zhao agreed repeatedly and asked helplessly: "Xiao Yi, today is a big day for hunting. If you don't prepare to dress up your luggage, why do you always follow me in the morning?!"

"Xie'er packed her luggage last night. She couldn't catch it and traveled with her. I envy me! Uncle Zhao, we two have agreed that you have to pick up a good horse for our young master..."

Lao Zhao nodded repeatedly, speechless. Xiao Yi was like a devilish mania this morning, talking nonstop, and grinding him for more than an hour.

No wonder, Cao Ang fell off his horse and fell asleep for a long time last time. At that time, Mrs. Ding was so angry that she blamed the groom for thirty sticks and drove him out of the Cao family; and Xiao Yi was also severely punished by Mrs. Ding and did not eat for three days! With the heavy lesson last time, Xiao Yi naturally had to pay attention to it.

Lao Zhao was so tired that he had no choice but to point to the tall black horse quietly and whisper: "This is the war horse sent by the lord from Jinan. It is very docile. Last night, the mistress had ordered the young master to ride this horse. Don't worry, no one dared to rob it with the mistress's order! And..."

Old Zhao lowered his voice and whispered: "I will be the full-time groom of the young master in the past few days. I will protect the young master's safety in person, so you can rest assured!"

Before Lao Zhao could stroke his beard and smile happily, Xiao Yi suddenly muttered in a low voice: "You are so old, is it reliable?"

Old Zhao acted like to kick, "Little bastard, you're tired of living..."

The two were having fun, but Cao Anmin walked into the shed with a cold face, glanced into the shed, pointed at the big dark horse and said, "That, who, bring this big dark horse over. I will ride this horse when I hunt this time!"

For such an irrespectful guy, Lao Zhao naturally didn't bother paying attention to him, so he squinted his eyes and pretended to be asleep; Xiao Yi was even more unlikely to take the initiative to strike up a conversation, just chopping grass hard and muttering in a low voice: "Chop you, bastard!"

At this time, Cao Anmin's four entourage ran in and said loudly: "Did you hear that? Our young master asked you to lead a horse! You are so old and immortal, why don't you hurry up!"

When Lao Zhao heard these people were rude, he opened his eyes suddenly and glared forward. He went over to escort Cao Cao to the battlefield, killing many Yellow Turban strong men. Now, when he glared like this, his tiger spirit still existed!

Although the four followers had a fat face, they were just little ** on the street. They were only a small man who was flattering and then got on the throne. After being glared at by Lao Zhao, he couldn't help but take two or three steps back!

Compared to the timid follower, Cao Anmin was much more calm, and saw him angrily saying, "How dare you bully your master? Why don't you kneel down for me!"

Lao Zhao laughed: "Which master are you? When I followed the Lord to calm the Yellow Turban Army, you were still huddled in the quilt and shivered! If I hadn't been seriously injured at that time, I would have been at least a lieutenant now! In front of the lord, I wouldn't kneel, let alone in front of you, the prince!"

Cao Anmin had heard of Lao Zhao's incident and dared not be too rude to him, so as not to be heard in the ears of his uncle Cao Cao. His uncle is sometimes very nostalgic. If he is sued by Lao Zhao, wouldn't he be worth the loss!

Cao Anmin understood very well, but felt extremely frustrated. He didn't even dare to deal with a slave, and his life was getting worse and worse!

Especially when I got the news the day before yesterday, the study of the clan school was set on fire by some unknown thieves, and all the test papers were burned out! Oh my God, I spent 100 guan to buy a first place, and now I have to waste it!

The depressed Cao Anmin sighed a long time ago and stood in front of the big dark horse. Xiao Yi was about to rush out to argue with him, but was stopped by the four followers with a fat face. These four people just stepped back in front of Lao Zhao, feeling that they had lost face, and now they were even more maliciously sneering, clearly trying to teach Xiao Yi a lesson.

Xiao Yi was not afraid of this. On the contrary, he was still a little eager to try. After the fire broke out the day before yesterday, Cao Ang secretly taught him the mental method. With Cao Ang's explanation, Xiao Yi had already seen the path.

Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, Lao Zhao quickly grabbed Xiao Yi and asked in a low voice: "Do you believe your uncle?"

Xiao Yi shook his head, "Last time when you came back, you said you were giving me a drink, and you didn't give me the last drop of wine!"

Lao Zhao said angrily: "You remember such a small thing clearly. I don't think you are young and drinking is not conducive to physical and mental development! Really, stingy!"

While speaking angrily, Lao Zhao pursed his lips and whistled quietly. With his angry speech as a cover-up, the four followers next to him didn't care about the whistle. However, the animals felt much more sensitive than humans, especially these fierce horses who had been on the battlefield!

After hearing the familiar whistle, the big black horse neighed, and the man stood up, and a pair of black hooves rushed towards Cao Anmin's chest and smashed them.

Fortunately, Cao Anmin practiced martial arts for many years and finally responded in time. Before the horse's hooves hit him, he snatched a lazy donkey and rolled to the side, but he rubbed all over the hay, mud, and horse manure!

Cao Anmin couldn't say that he was born with a golden key in his mouth, but he also enjoyed all his glory and wealth. He had never suffered such grievances. He smelled the smell of rotten body and immediately vomited a lot, and he couldn't stand steadily.

The four followers looked at Cao Anmin, who was in a mess. Although they wanted to pinch their noses and avoid them from afar, they knew that the opportunity to show their loyalty had finally come. The four of them rushed up immediately, helped Cao Anmin up, and ran to the pond in the backyard, without caring about Xiao Yi, Lao Zhao and the other two.

Lao Zhao smiled and said, "Xiao Yi, how about it? This is called a defeated soldier without fighting! This is what I learned from a groom, but he has been expelled by his wife now."

Xiao Yi's face turned pale, he stared at Lao Zhao and whispered: "The young master heard this whistle when something happened last time, but he didn't understand what it meant at that time. Unexpectedly, the horse was shocked! I thought, you were staying at home at that time, and it was definitely not you. By the way, it was the groom. He was right there! He pretended to control the horse, but the horse jumped more and more happily! It was not an accident that the young master was caught, but the groom deliberately made a murderous move. Someone wanted to harm our young master!"

Lao Zhao's face also changed. Someone wanted to murder the young master, and this thief deserved to die! He immediately lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Yi, you should report this matter to the young master and his mistress immediately, so that they can know what they do! Originally, this time I went out to hunt, I felt that I was doing something big about serving the horses myself. Now it seems that the mistress clearly has doubts about the last time the young master was dismissed!"

Xiao Yi nodded repeatedly, ran to meet Cao Ang immediately, and told everything together.

Cao Ang nodded slightly after hearing this. It was obvious that the mastermind behind this matter was either Cao Anmin or Cao De! However, Cao Anmin has always been impetuous and does not use his brains to do things. This strategy of buying a groom and saving the country in a curve is too complicated for him, and it should not be his actions. In this way, his biggest enemy is Cao Anmin's father, the talented man who buried his scriptures!

In this way, I have to be more careful when going out this time. It is said that my grandfather accidentally felt a cold before hunting, and Cao De was the one who was in charge of the hunting event. If Cao De was deliberately dismissed from the last time he was dismissed, then he would not miss this good opportunity this time!

Cao Ang immediately began to think about his response strategy, but unfortunately, after traveling for so long, there was no one else except Xiao Yi who could completely obey him. However, Cao Ang also had external forces to borrow:

First of all, he has his mother Ding, and he should be able to borrow a few trusted servants from her as a guard; secondly, his father's old subordinate, Lao Zhao, has always been prestige in the mansion, and his relationship with him is good, so he can borrow his power at the right time; secondly, his grandfather Cao Song also appreciates him, and Cao De should not dare to target him publicly; finally, although his unreliable uncle Cao Ren is greedy for money and lust, his martial arts are getting stronger and stronger, and it is most appropriate to give him the mission to charge.

Thinking of Cao Ren, Cao Ang asked Xiao Yi: "Brother Xiao Yi, you are the most informative. I'll ask you, what are your uncle Zixiao busy with recently?"

Xiao Yi thought about the recent rumors and repeated the comments of the servants with a smile: "I heard that after he bought the bride, he fought for several days and was very happy. However, the bride thought that she was bought to enjoy the happiness, but she didn't expect to fall into such a rags and was very dissatisfied with Cao Ren! She has been arguing three or four times recently, and urged Cao Ren to go to the clan to find a serious errand and earn more money to go home!"

Cao Ang nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Let's go, Brother Xiao Yi! Let's go to my mother's place to borrow four guards, and then hire my uncle to be a bodyguard for us. Anyway, the money Cao Anmin gave us last time has not been spent, so we have money!"

So Cao Ang led Xiao Yi to Mrs. Ding's place first. Sure enough, after listening to Xiao Yi's report, Mrs. Ding immediately selected six guards who were proficient in martial arts from her confidant and transferred them to Cao Ang.

Then, Cao Ang led Xiao Yi to Cao Ren's house and happened to meet Cao Ren and the lady quarreled loudly. Seeing that the woman's words became more and more rude, Cao Ang was very unhappy and stepped forward and said loudly: "Uncle, this is the ten gold I owe you, and I'm back to you now. I heard that there are many pretty maids on hand recently. Are you interested? You are on sale now!"

Cao Ren was worried that he could not defeat the woman's arrogance. After hearing this, he immediately took advantage of the situation and taught the woman a lesson. Of course, after Cao Ang left, the battlefield of the lesson also moved from the outdoors to the bed.

A quarter of an hour later, Cao Ren, who was proud of himself, left the humble room with a smile and officially became Cao Ang's personal bodyguard.
