Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

Mrs. Bian, her mother and her son were immediately refreshed.

"Zidan, what kind of information have you got about Cao Yuan? Tell me!"

Cao Pi urged impatiently.

Cao Zhen took out another silk book and spread it in front of the mother and son.

"Since Cao Yuan took office as Cang Ling, he has been taking advantage of his position to embezzle official wealth."

"Among them are military rations, official salt, cloth, war horses, etc., which add up to at least billions of dollars!"

"This is a list of what he has greedily devoured after his investigation, and he asked his mother to take a look at it."

Mrs. Bian's eyes flashed, and she snatched the silk book list and examined it carefully.

After a moment, she took a breath and exclaimed:"This Cao Yuan has been greedy for so much official wealth. How serious is it? The most corrupt official of all time!"

Brothers Cao Pi and Cao Zhi also hurriedly took the list and looked through it together.

Their expressions were first shocked, then ecstatic.

"Unexpectedly, this Cao Yuan turned out to be such a bold and corrupt official!"

"Mother, if you let your father know that he has stolen so many things from my Cao family, even if he has made extraordinary achievements, my father will never let him off lightly!"

Cao Pi raised the list in his hand and shouted excitedly at Mrs. Bian.

Mrs. Bian's frown finally relaxed.

"Your father has always governed the country with strict laws and regulations. What he hates most in his life is corrupt officials."

"This Cao Yuankong is extremely resourceful, but unfortunately short-sighted. He is so greedy for money and profit. God is really helping us, mother and son! Mrs. Bian slowly sipped her tea, her brows filled with sarcasm.

Cao Pi patted Cao Zhen on the shoulder and praised,"Zidan, you have really made a great contribution this time!"

A flash of pride flashed in Cao Zhen's eyes, but he said:"Mother, brother, should we present the evidence of the crime to the father immediately, so that the father can see his true face and eradicate him in one fell swoop!""

Cao Pi didn't dare to make his own decision and looked back at Madam Bian.

Madam Bian sipped her tea, weighed the pros and cons, and was silent.

After a while,

Madam Bian sneered and said,"Your father will definitely go down the river eastward and take advantage of the situation to capture the east of the river. So Cao Yuan will not say anything. Our Cao family is still useful, so let him be proud for a few more days. When your father captures Jiangdong and his troops return to the capital, we will use this evidence to bring down Cao Yuan in one fell swoop!"

"My mother is so wise!"

Brothers Cao Pi and Cao Zhi nodded repeatedly and raised their thumbs up in compliment.

Mrs. Bian took a sip of tea and looked towards the south in the direction of Jingzhou, with a sarcastic sneer between her eyebrows.

"Cao Yuan, you think you are so resourceful that you can take away the Cao family's inheritance from my own son. You really overestimate your capabilities!"

"Just wait. When you return to Yecheng, it will be the day when you have completely fallen out of favor and your reputation has been ruined!"

In the bamboo pavilion, the proud laughter of mother and son rang out.

……

Xiakou City.

Cao Yuan took Huang Yueying's hand, got off the carriage, and stood in front of a tall courtyard.

This mansion was originally the residence of Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia. After the Wei army captured Xiakou, Cao Cao immediately issued an edict and gave this mansion to Cao Yuan.

"Huang Zu has been in charge of Jiangxia for many years, and he is like a local emperor. I heard that his mansion cost countless material and people to build, and its level of luxury is far better than Liu Bei's puppet palace in Xiangyang."

"The king of Wei gave this mansion to his husband, which shows his favor towards him. Huang

Yueying sighed with emotion.

Cao Yuan smiled faintly, took her hand and stepped into the door of the house.

"Husband~~"

As soon as he entered the door, a familiar voice sounded behind him.

Cao Yuan looked back and saw Xiao Qiao getting off the carriage and running towards him.

"Wan'er, why did you come to Xiakou?"

Cao Yuan looked at Xiao Qiao who threw himself into his arms, with surprise in his eyes.

Xiao Qiao smiled softly and said:"My sister was thinking about her husband in Yecheng for a long time, and there was no one to take care of his food and daily life, so he thought of sending someone here. To take care of her husband, I volunteered and came to Xiakou."

That's it.

Cao Yuan was moved in his heart and thought that Xia Houjuan was indeed a good wife and she was always thinking about him.

"However, when I arrived in Xiangyang, I heard that the King of Wei had taken a beautiful woman as a concubine for my husband. With her taking care of his food and daily life, I thought there was no need for a concubine.~~"

There was a hint of coquettishness in Xiao Qiao's words, and he glanced at Huang Yueying aside.

Huang Yueying's face was slightly red, and she curtsied:"Yueying has met sister."

Cao Yuan naturally understood the implication of her words, so he pretended to be confused, coughed a few times, and introduced Huang Yueying to Xiao Qiao.

Xiao Qiao hurriedly helped Huang Yueying up, held her hand and said with a smile:"I have long heard that sister Yueying has a look that sinks like a fish and falls like a wild goose. When I saw her today, she really lived up to her reputation.""

"My sister made fun of Yueying. Who doesn't know that Jiangdong's Erqiao is a beautiful woman with unrivaled youth. When she saw her today, she was really ashamed of herself."

Huang Yueying laughed at herself.

The two beauties are both ladies of the world, well-informed and courteous, and they got along well with each other after just a few words.

Cao Yuan couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

"Let’s go, let’s talk in the house!"

He laughed, holding Xiao Qiao in his left hand and Huang Yueying in his right hand, and walked into the hall.

The three of them sat down.

Xiao Qiao poured a glass of wine himself and served it to Cao Yuan with his bare hands.

"Husband, actually I am here this time, and I have a private matter that I would like to ask for your help."

"Tell me, it's a private matter."

Cao Yuan took the wine glass, raised his head and drank.

"When King Wei captured Shouchun, my sister and I were separated in the rebellion. I was rescued by my husband, but my sister was missing."

"I have been searching for my sister's whereabouts for these years, but there has been no news. Who would have thought that a few months ago, my sister sent someone to Yecheng to bring the book owner, saying that she is currently taking refuge in Jiangdong."

"I think that my husband will definitely assist the King of Wei in conquering Jiangdong, so I would like to ask my husband to help me pick up my sister by the way, so that our family can be reunited."

Xiao Qiao revealed her so-called private matter.

"Da Qiao, it turns out she is in Jiang...."

Cao Yuan said happily without hesitation:"Don't worry Wan'er, this matter will be taken care of by your husband. I will reunite you sisters.""

"Then Wan'er thanked her husband.~~"

Xiao Qiao was happy and grateful, and poured another glass of wine for Cao Yuan.

Cao Yuan flirted with Xiao Qiao and Huang Yueying, and the family of three had a great time.

When I was drinking to my heart's content.

Dian Wei came in a hurry, cupped his hands and said:"Commander Ziyou, the King of Wei invites the military counselor to go quickly to discuss matters!""

"It was getting late, but King Wei still summoned me. Could it be that something urgent had happened?"

Cao Yuan glanced at the night outside.

Dian Wei said:"The King of Wei has just received an urgent report from Guanzhong. Ma Chao has captured Nanzheng, Zhang Lu has surrendered, and Hanzhong has been acquired by the Ma family!"
