It was getting late, and Zhang Liao and Chen Gong had already said goodbye and left.

Liu Chuang had made up his mind and the two knew that they could not change it.

This time, Cao Cao was targeting Liu Chuang, who wanted to take Liu Chuang to Xu Du to imprison him. Perhaps as Zhong Yao said, Cao Cao would not harm Liu Chuang's life, but he would never let the tiger return to the mountain. If Liu Chuang did not return to the Beihai, the Beihai would have no leader and would not last long.

He had a good idea, but he didn't expect that Liu Chuang had already made plans.

However, if Liu Chuang is not here, Beihai Country...

Both Zhang Liao and Chen Gong were worried.

Liu Chuang went to Xudu here like entering a dragon's and tiger's den. It's easy to get in, but it's probably difficult to get out... but the two of them were helpless.

The only thing that can be done is to do what Liu Chuang ordered.

Whether it is Zhang Liao or Chen Gong, they have completely surrendered to Liu Chuang at this moment. It is not easy to make them change their minds.

Saw Zhang, Chen, and Liu Chuang to sit alone in the pavilion.

Outside the pavilion, snow suddenly fell, indicating the arrival of the middle of winter.

He looked at the snowflakes falling outside the pavilion, but his mind was turning rapidly, trying to recall what happened in the four years of Jian'an in history.

It is November of the third year of Jian'an, and there is still one month left, which is the fourth year of Jian'an.

I vaguely remember that this year Yuan Shao completely defeated Gongsun Zan, occupied Youzhou, and unified the four northern counties.

At this point, he dominated Hebei, had strong troops, and began to attack Cao Cao, Henan. Many later generations believed that the Battle of Guandu began in the fifth year of Jian'an. In fact, the Battle of Guandu began as early as the fourth year of Jian'an and many conflicts occurred.

Cao Cao's deployment of the Battle of Guandu was launched in the fourth year of Jian'an.

It was in this year that the Beihai Kingdom was captured by Cao Cao, and then Cao Cao took over Qijun, Dong'an and other places to consolidate the right wing and form a restraint on Yuan Shao.

In other words, by the fourth year of Jian'an, in order to fight against Yuan Shao, Cao Cao would definitely use troops to the Beihai Kingdom.

In my memory, Cao Cao should have used troops to the Beihai Kingdom in the second half of the year.

If this is the case, Liu Chuang's plan to exchange the North Sea Donglai for Liaodong and Liaoxi must be completed in the first half of the year, otherwise variables will occur.

Liu Chuang was not worried about this.

With Xun Chen helping him in Hebei, and with the previous arrangements, Yuan Shao agreed to this request, it was not difficult.

The difficulty is, if he goes to Xudu, how should he get out?

What happened in Xudu in the fourth year of Jian'an?

Liu Chuang must come up with a proper plan to ensure that Zheng Xuan and others successfully complete the exchange with Liaodong and Liaoxi before Cao Cao attacked Beihai. If this arrangement is made, if he goes to Xudu, he can give Beihai Kingdom more time.

I believe that as long as Liu breaks into Xudu, Cao Cao will no longer regard Beihai as a great enemy in the short term.

As long as he relaxes his supervision and restraint of Beihai, Zheng Xuanbu and others will have enough time to transfer and arrange.

From this point of view, it is not without benefits for Liu Chuang to enter Xu.

But after entering Xudu, how should we get out?

This is annoying... I believe that as long as Liu Chuang enters Xudu, he will be under strict supervision by Cao Cao. It is not easy to leave. However, there should be a chance, but where is this opportunity? Liu Chuang felt a headache.

The fourth year of Jian'an, the fourth year of Jian'an!

Liu Chuang stood up and slowly walked out of the pavilion.

The cold snowflakes fell down and fell on Liu Chuang's face, instantly turning into water droplets.

Slow down!

Liu Chuang suddenly remembered something...

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there was a story about the robbery of robbery, which was widely discussed in later generations. Some people said that the robbery of robbery was fabricated by Luo Guanzhong, while others said it was true.

I remember that he had read the Three Kingdoms in his previous life, but there was a record that said that Emperor Han had secretly ordered the general Dong Cheng, the chariot and cavalry, Wang Fu and the Yueqi Caval College Commander, to kill Cao Cao together. Later, the matter was leaked and the three were killed. As for the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei was also involved in it, but there was no clear record in the Three Kingdoms. Instead, in the Zizhi Tongjian of the Song Dynasty, it was clearly stated that Liu Bei was also involved in it.

I don't know if this matter can be used?

If Cao Cao had learned of the edict in advance, he might have started a massacre, which would have caused Xu Du to panic.

Then there may be a chance...

However, Liu Chuang immediately denied this idea.

If he really reported to Cao Cao, it would probably cause even greater trouble.

Cao Cao is not afraid of itchy because he has too many lice, but if he puts it on Liu Chuang, with Liu Chuang's current qualifications and prestige, he will never be able to bear this infatuation.

Forget it, don't guess this.

However, if this is true, it can be considered a political capital. If possible, you can also participate in it.

You know, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei took advantage of the boss with this robbery.

What Liu Chuang lacks now is this kind of political capital. If he can obtain it, it can make up for his previous lack of fame and qualifications.

Thinking of this, Liu Chuang suddenly smiled.

At this time, I was still calculating, but now I am really learning bad things.

Forget it, what can I do if I just leave Xu Du? I believe that Zhong Yao and Xun Yu will not wait to see Cao Cao harm him. Moreover, the edict is issued, and the edict must be told to the world. At that time, Cao Cao must also be afraid of the use of the rat, at least he dare not harm himself blatantly.

Since that's the case, let's go!

After Liu Chuang's thoughts were understood, he relaxed a lot.

But he did not immediately reply to Zhong Yao, but secretly sent Chen Gong and Mi Zhu to Dongling Pavilion to prepare first.

Zhang Liao stayed behind Gaoyou for the time being, confusing Cao Cao's eyes and ears.

Zhong Yao did not urge him because he knew that it would be no easy task to decide this matter. Not to mention Liu Chuang, anyone would have considered it. Besides, there are still six days before the tenth day of the lunar calendar, so there is no need to urge Liu Chuang to make a decision.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Liu Chuang showed a cold attitude towards Zhong Yao and had no intention of being close to him.

On the third day after Chen Gong evacuated, Liu Chuang was discussing matters with Zhang Liao, but suddenly he received news that Xiahou Lan and Xu Sheng came to Gaoyou and wanted to go to the post station to kill Zhong Yao.

It scared Liu Chuang and hurriedly took people to stop him.

Fortunately, the soldiers reported in advance, and Liu Chuang blocked Xu Sheng and Xiahou Lan outside the post station.

"What are you doing?"

"Young Master, don't listen to the thief's nonsense. If the young master goes to Xudu, he will definitely be a life-threatening death.

We are willing to share life and death with the young master. After killing the dog thief, we will cut off the rear for the young master and cover the young master to evacuate Guangling."

"You two, shut up!"

Liu Chuang was furious, "What a name for dogs and dogs. Zhong Yao is my uncle. How can you two disrespect my elders and not get back to me."

After he said that, he took Xu Sheng and Xiahou Lan back to the county government office.

"Wen Xiang, you have always been calm, why are you so irritable this time?"

Xu Sheng said: "Young Master is generous and kind, and you don't want us to ruin your life. However, since you followed your master, Sheng has been very kind, but he has not made any contributions to you. If I go back like this, how can I spare me? What's the face of me going to see the Beihai Kingdom?"

"Yes, the young master treats Lan very well. Since ancient times, how can a subordinate have the principle of lords' decision to cut off the queen?"

Xiahou Lan was even more excited and looked at Liu Chuang and said, "Young Master, Xu must not go, otherwise there will be danger."

"What do you know?"

Liu Chuang said angrily: "Do you think I want to go?"

I don't know that Xu Du is very dangerous? But this time Cao Cao came to me. If I don't go to Xu Du, not to mention that you will have to bear the name of rebellion, even if the Beihai Kingdom is going to suffer a disaster. Why did I have to plan for three years? I just want to find a way out for everyone. What I need now is not to let you die, but to complete my plan.

Wen Xiang and Heng Ruo, you are the closest people around me.

This time I go to Xudu, I need you to return to Beihai to stabilize the situation for me, rather than making noise here..."

Xu Sheng and Xiahou Lan both closed their mouths.

After a while, Xiahou Lan suddenly said, "Young Master, Director Lan, is nothing more than a way to fight.

It was useless to return to Beihai Kingdom, so I walked with my grandson and went to Xudu together. It would be better to hold horses and stirrups for my grandson than to do nothing."

"I'll go too!"

Xu Sheng was stunned, and immediately reacted and shouted loudly.

"Wen Xiang can't go!"

"ah?"

"After you go back, you must protect your family and shoulder the safety of all gentlemen of Nanshan Academy.

I am not at ease with these things to others, and only you can make me feel at ease. Wen Xiang, you have been with me for three years. Although your reputation is not obvious, you are indeed the person I trust the most. Therefore, you must return to Beihai Kingdom. Only in this way can I deal with Cao Cao with peace of mind."

"But……"

Liu Chuang glared at his eyes, and Xu Sheng swallowed it back when he reached his mouth.

"Hengruo can walk with me... In this way, you go to Feixiongwei to select fifty infantrymen, and then you will go to Xudu with me."

"Young Master, I only bring fifty people, isn't it a little short?"
To be continued...
