Section 1 Solar Eclipse

On the 13th year of Jian'an, the military camp outside Xiangyang City was on the verge of Guiwei.

Wei Yan's left shield and right sword, his feet retreated thirteen steps in a row, followed Xiahou's Thirteen Swords in one breath, stopped suddenly, and slashed his head while Xiahou's breathing. Xiahou's breath didn't change it, and his hand softened, and the knife swept past his head. He couldn't dodge it. His long tassel was cut off by Wei Yan's knife and blew away in the wind. Seeing that Wei Yan succeeded, he held the knife in both hands and chopped three times in a row, and kicked Xiahou's thigh, which made Xiahou's thigh take a few steps in a row, and sat on the ground with a plop.

"Hahaha..." Cao Chong and others who were watching the game were laughing. Even the sisters Mi Dashuang and Mi Xiaoshuang clapped their hands and laughed. Dian Man stepped forward and squatted in front of Xiahou Cheng, who was breathing heavily. He couldn't help but smile: "Uncle Quan, you lost today. We finally drank this wine. You don't know. Wen Chang has been slapped with Zheng Li's flattery these days."

"No wonder." Xiahou said, throwing the sword and shield, supporting the ground with both hands: "Is Zhengli drunk by Wen Chang's ** Tang, so he didn't know what his surname was. He even had the skills to put the bottom of the box? But if I hadn't fought Zhengli for a long time first, Wen Chang wouldn't have taken advantage of the loopholes."

"If you lose, you lose. Don't make any excuses." Cao Chong patted his thigh and smiled: "A man can afford to win or lose. You used to bully Wen Chang every day, so you should be bullied."

"Where is it, Shu Quan is too tired, so I'll take it." Wei Yan stepped forward with a little embarrassed look and said, "He said with a hint of embarrassment.

"Barring, I, Xiahou, say I, a person who can't afford to lose?" Xiahou, stood up with Wei Yan's hand, patted the dust on his butt, rolled his eyes and smiled, then leaned into Wei Yan's ear and said, "Don't worry, someone is drinking anyway."

Wei Yan was stunned. He didn't understand what he meant. Xiahou trotted to Cao Chong and sat down. He took the hot water from rice hands and took a sip. He nodded with satisfaction and said to Cai Ji again: "Mr. Sister-in-law, lend me two jars of your own brewed wine." Cai Ji was screamed by the "Mr. Sister-in-law" and his face turned red. Just as he was about to speak, Cao Chong stopped him: "Uncle Quan, don't think about this again. You won the wine from others, and you lost my wine. You really have the nerve to drink. You can drink it. It's okay to drink it. Use the money to buy it. You can make it cheaper for you. One hundred thousand yuan a jar."

Xiahou said immediately hard-working: "Cang Shu, your business is too dark, 100,000 yuan per jar? How much does my monthly military salary cost? How much does this lieutenant's salary last year? You are not useless, why are you so stingy?"

"Brothers are clear about the accounts, let alone we are just cousins." Cao Chong deliberately curled his lips with dissatisfaction.

"Okay, okay, you really have the nerve to ask him for money. If you really want to calculate the money, I'm afraid that his salary will not be enough for my family to drink next year." Cai Ji smiled and pushed Cao Chong, turned his head to Xiahou and said, "I'll just have someone to send it to you tonight."

"Hehe, it's better for brother and sister." Xiahou said hello with a smile, put his finger into his mouth, and whistled. When his personal soldiers heard this, they quickly let go of the reins in their hands and let his white horses run over. Xiahou shouted on the horse and bowed in a row: "I, Xiahou, keep my word, please drink wine in the evening. If you don't have a good alcohol tolerance, don't come. It's a sin to waste good wine." After that, he laughed and left.

"This uncle Quan has become a fan of Zhao Zilong." Cao Chong curled his lips disdainfully. Since Changbanpo saw Zhao Yun's stunning spear, Xiahou said that he admired Zhao Yun very much. His war horse was hit and killed by Zhang Fei, so he specially wandered in several cavalry battalions for a few days, forcing, tempting and playing rogues, and making a pure white Wuwan horse. Even the cloak was embroidered with the same logo as Zhao Yun, which was a little Zhao Yun.

"Young master, what do fans mean?" Mi Xiaoshuang asked curiously.

"Fan...she?" Cao Chong hiccupped, scratched his head and said, "It means worship."

"Oh." Mi Xiaoshuang nodded suddenly, looking like I understood.

"Okay." Cai Ji was amused by Mi Xiaoshuang's pretending to be old, and said in Cao Chong's ear: "Young master, let's go back, it's getting late."

It seemed that God had also verified her words. The clear sky suddenly darkened. Cao Chong was stunned and thought that this was more amazing than Zhuge Liang who borrowed the east wind. He just said that it was not early, and the sun set at noon. He looked up and saw that although the sun had not set, it was really dark, as if there was a corner missing.

"Solar eclipse?!" Cao Chong shouted excitedly. Everyone looked up and saw that the missing corner became larger and larger. Slowly, the entire sun disappeared, and the earth fell into darkness. The entire school ground was quiet. An inexplicable fear spread among the crowd, like a big rock pressing on people's hearts, making people breathless. The boundless darkness was like an invisible and intangible hand, which suddenly pinched people's hearts.

Only Cao Chong was extremely excited and kept chuckling. He didn't expect that he would still see the solar eclipse when traveling to the Three Kingdoms. He had seen it once in his previous life, but it was not as refreshing as it was now.

I don’t know how long it took, but the sun finally slowly revealed a corner again. The golden sunlight illuminated the world again. The darkness of fear finally disappeared from people’s sight, but the atmosphere on the school ground was still a little depressed.

Cao Chong looked at the heavy people around him in confusion, and asked curiously: "This is a rare celestial wonder. Why do you all look like dead people?"

Zhou Buyi looked at Cao Chong in surprise, and approached him and whispered: "Young Master, the celestial phenomena are warning, I'm afraid... I'm not good for Prime Minister."

Cao Chong looked at him and understood a little. The solar eclipse means that the minister deceived the lord, and this minister is naturally the prime minister. Of course, this lord refers to the emperor who sits in Xu County and basks in the sun every day. The celestial phenomena are warnings, and those Confucian scholars naturally have to submit a statement. In the past, when there were abnormal celestial phenomena, the three dukes abdicatedly expressed that they would accept God’s warnings and bear the responsibility for bad governance of the people. Now the three dukes have only two dukes, and no one dares to do it. Only the prime minister and the censor, no one dares to cause trouble for the prime minister, but they are afraid that someone will cause trouble for the censor Xi Lu. Everyone knows that Xi Lu is the prime minister’s lord, and the trouble for the censor is to find the unhappiness of the prime minister and he doesn’t dare to say anything. Now that God is angry, you have to ask someone to say a few words. Besides, Xi Lu is a disciple of Master Zheng Xuan, you can’t even be afraid of the saint’s sutras.

"Kong Wenju is dead, no one dares to stand out, right?" Cao Chong suddenly laughed, but he laughed bitterly. In August, when Cao Cao was still marching secretly, he received news that Kong Rong was uneasy in Xu County, so he asked the Prime Minister's Army to make a statement, saying that Kong Rong was ruthless and violated the teachings of the saints and killed his clan. He heard that even a child of a few years old was not spared, and the killing made people frightened. The imperial physician Ling Zhixi cried and almost was followed by beheading. It was Cao Chong who went to ask for love, so he saved his life and was just his official position.

"This celestial phenomenon..." Zhou Busi saw that Cao Chong didn't take it seriously at all, so he had to swallow the words behind him.

After Cai Ji and the others got on the car, Cao Chong raised his legs and stepped on the stool to get on the car. The chasing man hung the stool by the car, holding the whip in his hand waiting to set off. Cao Chong thought for a while and poked his head out to Zhou Buyi, who was riding a horse, said, "Yuan Zhi, don't take it too seriously. This 'The way of heaven is normal, and it's not for Yao to perish for Jie'. Those Confucian scholars would not know this. Even if a few people who don't know the current affairs come out and shout, they will be suppressed, and there is no need to kill anyone."

"I understand." Zhou Buyi nodded. He was indeed a little worried. His uncle Liu Xian has now served as the Shangshu Ling on behalf of Xun Yu. Once such a thing happens, I am afraid that the Shangshu Ling's position will have to be replaced before it gets warm.

"Young Master is right, it's fine if those people ignore him." The prisoner holding the horse whip suddenly bowed and said.

Cao Chong paused, and he looked at the man in front of him in brown clothes and short-haired hair. He was famously approachable. Even peddlers often greeted him. Everyone in Xiangyang City knew about this, but this was the first time that the prisoner was imprisoned. He looked up and down at the man. The man had a medium figure, a little dish on his face, and his clothes looked a little thin. In the early winter of October, he was a little cold, but he stood straight, his clothes with patches were also neat, and his whole body looked energetic.

"Are you?" Cao Chong couldn't help but become interested in this, waved his hand and asked him to stand closer.

"Feng Yi and Yang Pei, I have met the young master." Yang Pei approached and bowed to Cao Chong.

"Yang Pei?" Cao Chong thought for a while, and when he thought of a name, he couldn't help but smile: "But Yang Pei Yang Kongqu, who beat the governor to the death?"

Yang Pei was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that he had such a great reputation. Even the young master knew about it. He had to laugh dryly and nodded.

Cao Chong sighed. He heard Cao Cao say that this person was a capable minister, but he had no research on Confucianism, so he was looked down upon by those from Confucianism. He thought that he was a cruel official, only knowing how to do things, not knowing the righteousness of saints, and was an insignificant character. He was still a tough guy and no one was born. When he was in office as the prefect of Le'an, he was forced back in person because a general wanted to ask for some favors, and a dispute broke out. He got angry for a moment and picked up a wooden stick next to him and beat the general out. Therefore, he was dismissed from his post, punished him, and served as a military service. However, Cao Chong had such an impression of him because Cao Hong said something that Yang Pei broke the leg of a guest in their family when he was in office. He sued Cao Cao, but it was left alone, which made Cao Hong feel so humble.
