Weishi, Cao Mansion.
The so-called Cao Mansion is actually a temporary requisition of local tyrants.
Although this house is just a residence for an ordinary powerful man in the Wei family, the environment is pretty good. Cao ** is treated here. Although he is unconscious every day, he still pays attention to some government affairs when he is awake. At this time, he is awake and talks with Xun Yu.
"Wenruo, do you really decide to retire and return home?"
Cao ** was a little surprised. In his opinion, Xun Yu should stay and assist Liu Chuang.
Not to mention the relationship between the Xun family in Yingchuan and the Liu family, just talking about Xun Yu's loyalty to the Han Dynasty, at least he should stay and help Liu Chuang for a while.
But who would have expected that Xun Yu would decide to retire and return home.
Xun Yu smiled slightly and nodded, "Have Sikong heard about it, too?
I planned to wait until Sikong gets better before knowing it, but I didn't want to... Yes, I decided to go home! With four brothers in the Xun family, there will be no problem. Moreover, Uncle Liu is full of talents now, and those little guys under him are not ordinary people, so I don't have much use to stay. Instead of doing this, it's better to retire and enjoy some pastoral fun."
While speaking, Xun Yu also showed a look of fatigue.
But Cao ** knew that Xun Yu's fatigue was more about pretending.
Speaking of which, Xun Yu is only in his forties, and he is in his forties. He is energetic and his intelligence is at its peak. At this time, he is determined to retire and return home, which is a bit unreasonable. If you say you enjoy the joy of the pastoral world, Cao ** will not believe his words.
In my heart, I understood Xun Yu’s thoughts somewhat.
Cao ** smiled slightly, "Wen should be underestimated?
Meng Yan has some talents, but if they can compare with Wen Ruo, they may not have appeared yet... If there will be such people in the future, I believe it. Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu are all talented, but their age is not qualified after all.
Now Meng Yan can win, although there are talents like Kong Ming and Xu Shu who provide advice, but he took over Yuan Benchu's men and gathered around him to pick up the leftovers and make suggestions for him, so he can gain the upper hand repeatedly. If you only have personal talent, no one can surpass Wen Ruo... If you leave at this time, not only Meng Yan's loss, but also the loss of the Han Dynasty."
Don’t you claim to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty?
How can I leave at this time...
Cao **'s words made Xun Yu look hesitant.
To be honest, if we can stay, who is willing to withdraw as a loser?
However, Xun Yu's situation was different. He could see very clearly that there would inevitably be a fight between Liu Chuang and the Emperor of Han. Although Xun Yu said that this was a struggle within the Han family, if he could watch Emperor Han be killed by Liu Chuang, he would feel uncomfortable.
After all, he had planned a lot for the Han Emperor and regarded himself as a minister in his heart.
If Liu Chuang and Emperor Han then argue, which side should they help? I’m afraid it’s Xun Yu himself, and there is no accurate answer yet.
Cao ** sighed and said softly: "Wenruo, I actually hope you can stay."
"oh?"
"For the Duke, you have the ability of Liu Hou and Xiao He's talent, and you are a first-class virtuous person.
Meng Yan has developed too rapidly to this point. On the surface, it seems to be strong, but in fact there are many hidden worries. Mr. Ju and his age are getting older and cannot leave Youzhou. Although your fourth brother is talented, he is far less like you look at things thoroughly, nor is he as steady as you; Yuan Chang can make a state stable, but he cannot support the overall situation alone. As for Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu who you mentioned before, they are still young and cannot convince everyone. If you stay, Meng Yan's surname will definitely be used more for you, and you have a lot of opportunities to display your talents."
After Cao ** said this, he was a little breathless.
So he took a rest, took a sip of water and continued, "Privately, if you stay, my Cao family will be more stable."
I know you have sent someone to Youzhou to lobby for filial piety.
But to be honest, whether it is filial piety or literary harmony, they all have the ability to be in a world of great power, but they are not as good as you are in a noble and noble way. Only with you, my Cao family will be guaranteed; if you don’t stay, it will not take long, and the Cao family will be destroyed. Don’t think that Meng Yan is my son-in-law, and is willing to protect my Cao family. That must be under the premise that no one in the Cao family can threaten him... I cannot guarantee that after I die, no one will be bewitched. By then, even if Yuwa gave birth to a child for him, he will never care about love, and even Yuwa will be implicated by it, and Cao family will be in danger.
Wen Ruo, after all, I know that Na Chuanger and I are the same type of people.
I would rather let others down than let others down… Behind his humility, he has an extremely cruel side, and those who are not powerful cannot comfort them.”
Cao ** looked at Xun Yu, and the meaning was clearly: You Xun Yu are the powerful ones who can appease Liu Chuang!
Xun Yu, silent!
He himself didn't know that he still had such ability.
Just looking at Cao **'s begging gaze, Xun Yu didn't know how to refuse.
Thinking about what a tough person he was at the beginning, when did he admit his mistake? When did he see him accept it? But now, he is begging him. Xun Yu showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and after a while, he said softly: "Sikong, don't force me, let me think twice about this."
A smile suddenly appeared on Cao **'s face.
Just as Xun Yu knew Cao **, Cao ** also knew Xun Yu.
His failure to refuse actually means approval... Meng Yan, I helped you this time and left Xun Yu for you... I believe that you will understand my hard work. As long as you can understand my thoughts, Cao will be worry-free!
At this moment, the door was knocked by someone.
"who?"
"It's me, Cao Peng."
Cao ** was stunned for a moment and signaled Xun Yu to get up and open the door.
The door opened, but saw Cao Peng walking in from outside with Cao Pi. When Cao Pi saw Cao **, he couldn't help crying loudly...
"Zihuan, how can it be?"
Cao ** frowned and shouted sternly.
Cao Pi immediately stopped crying, but his eyes were still red and swollen. He stood beside Cao **'s couch, held Cao **'s hand, and sobbed softly.
Cao Pi in history was also an extremely tough and even cold-hearted person.
For the throne, he could kill his brothers. Even if he had regrets in his heart, it would never affect his normal behavior. Of course, it was understandable that he killed Cao Zhi. Cao Zhi had been competing for his position with him, and even after Cao Pi ascended the throne, Cao Zhi still did not hide his covetousness for his status. However, Cao Zhang was a little ruthless towards Cao Zhang... Cao Zhang liked military affairs, liked troop, and had no intention of competing with Cao Pi. However, out of fear of Cao Zhang, Cao Pi did not show mercy either.
According to historical records: In the fourth year of Huangchu, Cao Zhang went to Beijing to pay homage. During this period, he became extremely ill and died suddenly in his mansion.
Although it was not clear that Cao Zhang's death was related to Cao Pi.
But in fact, Cao Pi had taken over the military power in Cao Zhang's hands since the second year of Huangchu.
And the "acute illness" and "sudden death" all show Cao Zhang's death, which reveals many strange things...
Of course, these things happened fifteen years later. At this time, Cao Pi was weak, although he was mentally wise, but he was not a cruel person.
In front of Cao **, he was still like a child, and he couldn't help crying when encountering sad things.
Cao ** did not scold Cao Pi anymore, but instead focused on Cao Peng.
"You Xue, why did you suddenly come here?"
"Fang got the news that after Liu Chuang returned to Guandu, he had already sent troops yesterday and approached Xu Du."
"This kid..."
Cao ** couldn't help but shake his head and suddenly asked, "Do you know, what excuses did he use?"
"It is said that the wine sent by the emperor to reward the army was poisonous.
Although Liu Chuang was poisoned, he was not at risk because of the timely discovery. But because of this, the Han army united in hatred against the enemy! Liu Chuang used the excuse of clearing the emperor and trying to eliminate the violin, so he ordered Xu Chu to be the vanguard, and Zhuge Liang was in charge of the central army and approached Xu Du for 30,000 troops.
At the same time, he also sent Pang De and Huang Zhong to split into two groups, all the way to Yangdi and Yingyin."
After hearing these words, Cao ** couldn't help but be stunned.
After a while, he looked at Xun Yu and said softly: "Wen Ruo, if there is any accident, please consider your past relationship and be able to take care of it."
With just this incident, Cao ** could see that Liu Chuang was so beautiful about doing things.
This person's shamelessness and ruthlessness are quite similar to himself... If he had passed away, with Cao Pi and his friends' skills, he would not have been Liu Chuang's opponent. Cao ** had previously entrusted his or her to Liu Chuang, but now he entrusted his or her to Xun Yu again...
Xun Yu was silent for a while and said to Cao Peng and Cao Pi: "Friends, you can lead the tiger and leopard cavalry and take Zihuan to Yanling.
When the Han army arrives in Yanling, you two will go to serve... Remember, don't say too much, just say you can avenge Sikong."
Cao Peng and Cao Pi were stunned for a moment, and then looked at Cao **.
Cao ** nodded and said, "As soon as Wenruo ordered, you and the two of you set off."
Cao Peng and Cao Pi took the order and left. Looking at the backs of them, Cao ** suddenly sighed: "I wish I could have been born ten years later, and I must fight with Chuang'er."
After saying that, he lay down, closed his eyes and stopped talking.
And Xun Yu also knew that Cao ** was probably tired... The words he had said to him for so long had exceeded Cao **'s physical strength limit.
His body is indeed too weak now.
Looking at Cao **'s pale face, Xun Yu felt his nose sore, he stood up and bowed to Cao **, and then walked out of the room with a slight hand and foot.

At the end of November of the ninth year of Jian'an, Liu Chuang suddenly ordered Zhuge Liang to lead his troops to attack Xudu.
He used the excuse that the Han Emperor had a villain who had an annihilated man around him to clear the emperor and restore the court to a cleansing innocence. The 30,000 army was in power and like a destruction, he rushed into Yingchuan.
