The laying of the kang spreads outwards with Xudu as the center, and now almost every family in Xudu City has a kang.

Rich and noble families don’t want a stove, but poor families love it very much.

Cao Ang made people say that drinking with boiled water can reduce people's illness, especially young people.

The function of the stove is highlighted again. When cooking fires, cooking water and heating the kang, people have magically discovered that using hot water to replace the water that is ready to drink, greatly reducing their abdominal pain and headaches. This phenomenon is most obvious in children, and Cao Ang has gained another reputation among the people.

Even a small number of Confucian scholars who were attracted by Ni Heng were unwilling to scold Cao Ang and insult his reputation. Even if Ni Heng incited him, they would just hum and respond and no longer work hard.

But Sima Fu sat next to Cao Ang as a marching document, and this time he also followed Cao Ang to Xudu.

After Cao Ang killed Kong Rong, Sima Fu asked to be transferred to the army for training. Cao Ang knew that Sima Fu was only a soldier before and never killed anyone, so Cao Ang agreed to him and asked him to take care of him.

After the incident in Jizhou, Sima Fu is no longer the scholar who can only hold a sword and dare not kill people. He is used to blood and fire, and he has always had some transformation.

On this day, Sima Fu entered the house of the General of the Five-Secret Office to worship Cao Ang.

Cao Ang pointed to the position, and Sima Fu thanked him and sat down.

"Shuda, people say that you have never returned home, but you live with the soldiers in a camp outside the city. Why is this?"

Sima Fu hesitated in his heart, not knowing whether to say it or not. Cao Ang smiled and said, "Well, if you have any hidden secrets that you cannot say, you don't need to say it, but where can you need my help? Just say it."

Sima Fu said, "I dare not bother the young master if I have some family affairs."

Cao Ang smiled and said, "Since that's the case, you are going to return home. It's winter now, and it's about to be the year. If you wait until that day, how can your father and brother in the family not worry?"

Sima Fu nodded with thoughts and bowed, "Sima Fu thanked the young master."

"You thanked me and gave me great tribute. I need to do this for you." Cao Ang took a sword from the sword frame. "This sword once followed me to fight on the battlefield and drank the blood of the enemy. You have experienced it from Jizhou and have achieved success in grinding. It is just like this sword."

Sima Fu hurriedly resigned, "How can Sima Fu take this young master's favor?"

Cao Ang smiled and patted Sima Fu's shoulder and stuffed the sword into Sima Fu's arms. "I am the lord. The battle in my prime has caused criticism, and I am mostly scolded by the prime minister. I said I don't care about myself. If this sword cannot drink the blood of the enemy in the future, wouldn't it be a pity? Shuda is willing to conquer all directions for me?"

Sima Fu was shocked, "My grandson, Sima Fu has rare martial arts skills, how can he be so respected by his son?"

Cao Ang smiled and said, "For the general, you need courage, but you don't need to be in charge. What? Is it worth it?"

Sima Fu bowed and bowed deeply, "Sima Fu thanked the lord!"

Cao Ang laughed loudly, and asked someone to choose gold and silk and frames to send Sima Fu home.

Sima Fu thanked Cao Ang for his kindness and left.

But it is said that the three Sima brothers are not at home. Sima Lang is worried when he heard that Sima Fu lives in the military camp outside the city.

"Father, now my third brother is not returning home, but he is mingling with the soldiers in the military camp. What should I do?" Sima turned around in an anxious manner before Sima Fang's eyes.

Sima Fang took a sip of tea, "What a panic? Shuda is not a child, and in Cao Ang's army, what are you worried about?"

"Father, my Sima family is also a family of scholars. How could Shuda, Shuda hang out with those soldiers?"

Sima Fang blew the hot air, "What Cao Ang said is not bad. Drinking more hot water can really drive away the coldness in his belly."

"Father!"

Sima Fang raised his eyelids and looked at his eldest son who could not stand his temper. "Soldiers are the most important in troubled times, so what about the fragrance of books? Are you not afraid of swords and weapons?"

Sima Lang wanted to speak again, but the servant came to report to him and said that Sima Yi was back.

Sima Lang waved his hand and signaled that he had already known it. Sima Yi came and bowed and said, "Father, how can my brother have such a good mood to drink tea here?"

Sima Lang's anger was not yet calmed down, "Second brother, why did you see me drinking tea? I told my father about Shuda's affairs, but my father told me not to worry!"

Sima Yi said lightly: "Since my father has something to say, why don't you obey the eldest brother?"

Sima Lang stared, "Ru"

Sima Yi said lightly: "This Shuda is looking for his own way, and he has nothing to do with others. The eagle wants to fly, so it is difficult for him to block the wind and cover up for his brother."

Sima Lang was so choked that he couldn't speak, and he was angry and left with his sleeves.

Sima Yi bowed to Sima Fang and was about to go back to his room, but the servant reported it again, saying that Sima Fu was back!

Sima Fang stood up, and Sima Yi suddenly turned around and looked at the door. Sima Fang could not see Sima Yi's tiger-like eyes!

"Master, there are a lot of gold and silk outside the door. The third young master asked the master to send his subordinates to move."

Sima Fang hurriedly put down the tea bowl, "There are too many gold and silk? How can Shuda get the number of gold and silk?"

"The villain doesn't know."

Sima Fang hurriedly went out to see it. When Sima Lang heard that Sima Fu had returned, he also went out to see it. Only Sima Yi was walking out alone.

When Sima Yi arrived at the door, Sima Lang was directing his servants to move gold and silk to the hall, "Be careful, these are the best silk and silk, and ten gold is hard to find!"

Sima Fang was talking to Sima Fu. Sima Fu was hanging a sword around his waist, holding it with his left hand, smiling. Sima Yi looked at his younger brother who was introverted but full of energy, and suddenly felt a little unrecognizable.

When Sima Fu saw Sima Yi coming, he bowed his hands slightly and smiled and said, "After a few months of separation, my second brother's style remains the same."

Sima Yi replied slightly, "The third brother's style is better than the past."

Everyone entered and held a family banquet to celebrate Sima Fu's return.

This night, Sima Yi was not very comfortable.

However, Cao Ang and his wives and concubines were all in Xudu, Daqiao and Diao Chan. After all, in recent years, it is hard to leave two pretty and beautiful women and leave them there, so I feel uneasy.

Since returning to Xudu, the family has not had a good meal yet. In addition, as the weather is cold today, Cao Ang feels it is time to have a shabu shabu.

Cao Ang brought two sheep and asked someone to peel them and let them go. Cao Ang gathered everyone, set up a pot in the room where the kang was installed, and then placed the two fresh sheep aside.

Cao Ang personally took the knife, and the pieces of delicious meat turned into thin slices of mutton after passing Cao Ang's hands.

A large pot of boiling water, and the meat slices will be cooked soon after they are put into the pot.

Cao Ang looked at the beauties' impatient look and felt funny. Unfortunately, there was no dipping sauce now, only fine salt, but even so, everyone was sweating all over.

Of course, this picture of the light and sticky clothes and the room is full of beauty fragrance, which is only Cao Ang can enjoy. This is also the reason why Cao Ang took a piece of meat by himself.

The beauties drank some more strong wine to warm up their bodies, so the whole room was filled with the fragrance of the beauties.

When talking about elegance and the meaning of the scriptures, the beauties were amused by Cao Ang and laughed repeatedly.

Late at night, Cao Angcai sent his maid to see Da Qiao and Diao Chan and the other beauties with their blushing faces returned to their house. They were sleeping with their wives and concubines. The clouds did not disappear and the rain did not stop.

The next day, Cao Ang went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pay homage to Cao Cao.

At that time, Cao Cao was practicing swords with Dian Wei. Dian Wei was willing to give in and control the scale, so the two killed very well.

After a while, Dian Wei sold a flaw. Cao Cao shook Dian Wei with one sword and took two steps away. Seeing Cao Ang standing beside him, Cao Cao sighed: "I am old. After I have a grandson, General Dian still wants to let me go when practicing sword."

Dian Wei hurriedly said, "Who dares to say that he is old with such martial arts?"

Cao Cao shook his head, "Although I don't go into battle, I know the hardships of practicing martial arts. My son fought in all directions, but he worked so hard."

Cao Ang hurriedly bowed and said, "Only the people can be healthy if the world is unified, my father will teach you sincerely, and I dare not forget you!"

Cao Cao patted Cao Ang on the shoulder and said, "Come, come in and talk about important things."

The father and son entered the study, and Dian Wei led his personal guards to patrol twenty steps away.

After entering the study, Cao Cao took out a roll of maps and spread them on the ground. The outline of the entire Three Kingdoms suddenly appeared.

Cao Cao stood on the map and looked at Cao Ang, "Now I have obtained the Central Plains, and I have obtained most of the Bingzhou. The soldiers are strong and the food is sufficient, and the generals are wide and brave. Even if all directions come to attack, I will not be afraid. Zi Xiu, do you say, can I be the king?"

Cao Ang was shocked, but when he saw the light flashing in Cao Cao's eyes, Cao Ang knew that it had been too long for him to hold it in!

"Father, I am your son. You respect me and I am noble. I naturally support my father, but..." Cao Ang pondered.

"how?"

Cao Ang stood on the map that Cao Cao stepped on, "I may not agree to a family with a name and a surname!"

It was almost noon that the father and son came out of the study, but Cao Cao's face turned gloomy, and Cao Ang was still as respectful as he looked.

Cao Ang knew that Cao Cao was unhappy, but there was nothing he could do. That was the case. If he was king now, no matter who called him, Cao Ang would have the heart to call them back.

Besides, those princes probably wanted Cao Cao to be king. Only when Cao Cao became king would they dare and have the nerve to be king. Otherwise, the "Han thief" they called had not yet become king and domineering. If they jumped out, wouldn't they give people a handle?

"Father, it's almost noon. I'm getting a delicious meal recently. Is my father willing to taste it to soothe the energy in his chest?"

Cao Cao sighed, "Well, let's arrange it."

Cao Ang then set up a large pot of firewood and grass in the hall, added water to the pot, and took venison and mutton. Cao Ang made some green onions, ginger, garlic, sauce, and fine salt to enrich some seasonings.

Then take a clean knife, turn the meat into strips, and throw it into the pot and let it sing.

Mash the garlic, add fine salt, add a little sauce, and make a little hot soup. Once stirred, it will make a simple seasoning.

After taking more than ten mouthfuls, Cao Cao's mood finally recovered, and the father and son were drinking and talking.

"Zi Xiu, Jizhou is close to Liaodong and Xiliang. Don't take it lightly. As your father, you will naturally understand it. Now it is not the time to be king. There is nowhere to attack, so it is really not easy to do it rashly."

Cao Ang responded and added meat to Cao Cao.

The two of them drank and ate meat. They ate a sheep and half a deer, and then drank a lot of strong liquor before they stopped.

Cao Ang helped Cao Cao into the house to rest. Mrs. Ding was not in the mansion and went to Cao Ang to see Cao Ze. She would not come back until night. In front of her grandson, her son was not worth mentioning!

When Cao Ang returned to the mansion, he found that the big cat was squatting next to the girls, sticking out his tongue, and his saliva fell in front of him.

Cao Ang couldn't help laughing, and stepped forward to touch the tiger's head. The big cat first went up and rubbed Cao Ang, and then went back to drool in the same position.
