Who is not Cao Cao?

Chapter 124
Not just Jingzhou.

In Guanzhong and Qilu, there are also many families of Confucian classics entrenched in these two places.After they heard about the new study, they also sent their disciples to carefully contact the new study.

For a time, the threshold of Yingchuan Chen family and Hongnong Yang family was almost broken, and countless people with good intentions or malicious intentions came and went between the two families, wanting to seek some benefits for themselves.

Especially Yang Biao.

Not long after the Spring Plowing Ceremony, he was found a reason to be re-promoted to Taiwei, and served as Sangong together with Cao Cao and Zhao Wen.

With this big fish stirring up the wind and rain in Xinxue's pond, naturally few people went to investigate He Yan behind it.

He Yan was happy and relaxed, and every day he dragged Liu Ye and Guo Jia to fight the landlord in Hewu, which was a joy.

"Marquis Shen, this card actually complements the new learning."

In the pavilions in Hewu, several heaters are arranged in the house, which fumes the warm and cold spring breeze into hot air.

Guo Jia rubbed the cards with his fingertips: "Using the emperor and the empress as playthings, after a long time, people will no longer feel awe of the emperor and empress, which is really a good strategy."

Some things need to be vigorous, such as the solar eclipse, such as the spring plowing ceremony.

But there are other things that need to be moistened in detail, such as the Son of Heaven, such as this playing card.

The mysterious veil of Emperor Han's 400-year operation is not so easy to be pierced, and it must be worn slowly with the method of nine shallows and one deep.

He Yan agrees with this truth, but why is Guo Jia's words so strange?

"What do you mean by using the emperor and queen as a plaything? You said that decades ago, but you will be punished! It's the kind of Zhu Jiuzu!"

"Ah."

Guo Jia played a card disdainfully: "If I am punished by the Nine Clans, then you should be punished by the Ten Clans!"

Hua Xin, Chen Qun, and Yang Biao are all in the limelight for new learning, but what is Guo Jia's identity?Could he not know who the real culprit behind this is?
"cut!"

After hearing what Guo Jia said, He Yan didn't care too much: "No one will believe you when you say it now! Play your cards well!"

"Oh, four 2s, gone!"

"..."

Throwing all the cards away, He Yan cursed and began to reshuffle the cards.

"Zi Yang, why are you listless today?"

Guo Jia suddenly asked Liu Ye, pointing to the pile of cards and said: "You didn't play a single card in the last round, so you must be playing tricks, right?"

Only then did Liu Ye regain his senses, and smiled wryly: "How dare you?"

"It's just that there have been some changes in my hometown recently. I have a little worry in my heart."

Guo Jia suddenly realized: "You're talking about Li Shu?"

As a native of Huainan, Liu Ye naturally chose to be an official in Lujiang County near his hometown when he became an official.

At that time, the prefect of Lujiang was still Liu Xun under Yuan Shu's command. He had a large number of soldiers and was extremely powerful in the Jianghuai area.Sun Ce, who intends to sweep Jiangdong, is very afraid.

So after betraying Yuan, Sun Ce set up a trick to form a false alliance with Liu Xun, tricking Liu Xun into sending troops to attack Shangliao City, while he himself attacked Liu Xun, causing Liu Xun's troops to be greatly damaged. Ye.

The current Lujiang prefect Li Shu had faint intentions to betray Sun Quan, and there might be a war between the two sides in the future.

After all, Lujiang is Liu Ye's hometown, and there are probably many old friends among them. In this battle, I don't know how many people will die in the war. No wonder Liu Ye is so absent-minded.

He Yan also frowned after hearing this.

Lujiang County is not insignificant to the situation in the south.

If the northern forces occupy Lujiang County and rely on the Dabie Mountains, they can look down on the entire Jiangdong from a condescending height.

Even, in Lujiang County, it is possible to control part of the Yangtze River waterway, cut off the connection between Yangzhou and Jingzhou in the south, and make the two sides lose contact.

So He Yan asked: "Feng Xiao, is it possible for Sikong to have a hand in this Lujiang matter?"

Guo Jia rubbed his chin and thought for a while, and his tone was a little hesitant: "When the food comes out this year, Sikong mainly wants to eliminate the rebellious forces in the Lu Kingdom. They betrayed Sikong before the Battle of Guandu, surrendered to Yuan Shao, and have been Didn't settle accounts with them."

"Secondly, Sikong wants to send troops to capture Cangting. Cangting is Yuan Shao's only stronghold south of the river, so it's an eyesore to put there."

After more than a year of fighting at Guandu, Cao Cao was also exhausted, so how could he care about the affairs of the south?
Besides, Yuan Shao was only defeated, not killed.

For some time to come, the Cao Cao Group's attention must still be focused on stabilizing itself and fighting against Yuan Shao in the north. Cao Cao really has no control over the southern affairs.

"That's it."

He Yan was a little unwilling: "But if you take Lujiang, it will be easier to beat the Sun family in the future."

"Mr. Sun?"

Guo Jia couldn't help but laugh: "Did Marquis Shen think a little too far? Besides, if it really comes down to attack the Sun family in the south, Sikong must have taken Hebei. Does Marquis Shen think that at that time he won't be able to take a mere Jiangdong?"

Liu Ye also laughed lightly at the side, but when he smiled, he found He Yan's serious face, and the laughter stopped abruptly.

"Feng Xiao!"

He Yan's expression became serious: "Don't underestimate the enemy! It's only been a few months since the battle of Guandu, have you forgotten Yuan Shao's lesson?"

Hearing that He Yan was so serious, Guo Jia also laughed: "I know, I know!"

Seeing Guo Jia like this, He Yan also sighed.

The limitations of the times~
Before the future battle of Chibi, no one believed that the south of the barbarian land could compete with the north.

No one believed that in the next few hundred years, the orthodoxy of the Han family could survive only by relying on the dangers of the mountains and rivers in the south.

At this time, saying that the south is capable of countering the north is indeed a bit of grandstanding...

Seeing that He Yan was so serious, Guo Jia also wanted to tease He Yan: "You and Sikong's two old lovers are about to run away. Instead of worrying about Sun, you should worry about Guan Yu and Zhao Yun."

Guan Yu?

Zhao Yun?

Although He Yan had a premonition in his heart, his heart still beat violently after hearing Guo Jia's words.

"Are they leaving?"

"Well, both of them returned the seals to Sikong."

Guo Jia was surprised instead: "What? Zhao Yun didn't tell you?"

"..."

He Yan threw down the cards in his hand: "I'll go out for a while!"

Seeing He Yan running out, Guo Jia hurriedly dragged Liu Ye to follow He Yan.

"Go! Go to the theater!"

--------

--------

Guan Yu's residence.

"Zilong, are you really not going to say goodbye to Marquis Shen?"

Carloads of packed luggage were displayed in front of the mansion. Guan Yu and Zhao Yun had already removed their armor, and packed the frame of the carts like ordinary people in coarse cloth and dark clothes.

Hearing Guan Yu's inquiry, Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head decisively: "Forget it."

"If I see Marquis Shen, Marquis Shen might use some other method to force me to stay. If that happens, I really won't be able to leave."

Behind everyone's luggage there was a large carriage, in which sat Liu Bei's wife and daughter, namely Mrs. Gan, Mrs. Mi, Liu Yue and Liu Ying.

Mrs. Gan heard Zhao Yun's voice outside, and couldn't help raising the small curtain on the side of the carriage and calling: "General Zhao."

"lady!"

Mrs. Gan understood the general situation: "During the time I was waiting in Xuchang, Marquis Shen took good care of me. Even though I am leaving now, I should come to the door to say thank you."

How can Zhao Yun not understand this truth, the problem is...

He suspected that with He Yan's temperament, it was really possible to tie himself up and not let him go.

Liu Yue and Liu Ying in the carriage also showed hope when they heard Mrs. Gan's words, but Zhao Yun's silence shattered their newly raised hopes.

Liu Yue bit her lip: "General Zhao, Liu Ying also said that Aunt Gan is right, and she herself wants to thank Marquis Shen."

Liu Ying: (⊙⊙)? ? ?

Liu Yue: (*￣︿￣)! ! !

Liu Ying: (⊙x⊙;). . .

Zhao Yun looked at Mrs. Gan, then at Liu Ying and Liu Yue, and still sighed: "Yun Fei is an ungrateful person, it's just..."

Before he finished speaking, a voice like thunder made Zhao Yun tremble in fright: "Zhao Yun!"

Several people looked at the same time, only to find that He Yan's panting figure appeared on the corner of the street.

After that, it was Xu Hu and Xu Bao, and the breath of these two people was quite stable.

Guo Jia and Liu Ye at the back almost lost half of their lives: "Mother! Can't you ride a horse, He Yan? Do you have to run?"

He Yan approached step by step, and raised his head when he was in front of Zhao Yun, and looked at Zhao Yun with extremely strange eyes: "Are you planning to leave without saying goodbye?"

Even though he was extremely determined in his heart, when Zhao Yun saw He Yan approaching so closely, he was still flustered for no reason, unable to speak, and could only let his face turn red from being suppressed.

"Marquis Shen."

It was Guan Yu who stood up and helped Zhao Yun out.

"Both Zilong and I regard you as a contract to forget the year, you should understand our thoughts."

"Mr. Xuande has shown us kindness. Mr. Cao's kindness has been repaid during the Battle of Guandu. Now it's time for me to go back."

……

The scene was a bit cold for a while, and even Guo Jia and Liu Ye, who were hiding behind watching the play, felt chilly.

"It's mainly because I just ran all sweaty, and it will be very cold when the wind blows..."

Guo Jia wrapped up his clothes and started a bet with Liu Ye: "Do you think He Yan will let Zhao Yun be detained directly?"

Liu Ye had some doubts: "Why is Marquis Shen so cruel?"

"If you knew how he took down Zhao Yun in the first place, you wouldn't say that."

Guo Jia stretched out five fingers: "If He Yan makes a move, you will let me play five landlords next time playing cards!"

"make a deal!"

The two sneakily hid behind Xu Hu and Xu Bao's large bodies, each sticking out their heads, wanting to see how He Yan will make a decision.

Seeing Guan Yu standing beside him, He Yan tilted his head slightly, passed his tall figure, and turned to look behind him.

Zhao Yun lowered his head with guilt all the time, but two heads protruded from the windows on both sides of the carriage, it was Liu Yue and Liu Ying.

"Snapped!"

He Yan's arm patted Guan Yu's arm heavily, and the stern aura just now disappeared without a trace.

Raising his head slightly, the frost on He Yan's face disappeared without a trace, and a sunny smile appeared instead: "Just leave, what's the big deal?"

Zhao Yun and Guo Jia looked at He Yan in shock at the same time.

He Yan patted Guan Yu's arm again: "But General Guan and Zilong are not unknown people, there is no need to leave in such a sneaky way, wait until I go to buy some wine and vegetables to eat and drink before going on the road!"

Not allowing Guan Yu to refuse, He Yan turned his head and shouted to Xu Hu and Xu Bao: "Go and buy some meat, and then go to Sikong Mansion to get a pot of wine, hurry up."

Seeing that Xu Hu was really going to get the wine, Guo Jia, who had made a bet, still did not give up, and quietly leaned into Xu Hu's ear and asked, "Is the wine in the Sikong Mansion a secret signal from you and He Yan? It's like getting drunk on the wine." The medicine, the kind that knocks you unconscious after drinking it?"

Xu Hu tried hard to think about it with his not-so-intelligent head, and then shook his head resolutely.

"Really do not have?"

For the first time, Guo Jia began to doubt his own judgment of He Yan, and his worry was scratching his head.

"Feng Xiao, remember, five!"

Liu Ye smiled and stretched out five fingers to signal Guo Jia not to deny it, but Guo Jia obviously still refused to give up.

"I don't believe it! He Yan won't let them leave so easily!"

until……

meat eaten...

drunk...

The carriage is drifting away...

Guo Jiacai came to He Yan's side as if resigned to his fate: "You really don't want to keep them?"

"What is there to keep?"

He Yan looked at Guo Jia strangely: "Anyway, we will see each other again in a few years."

"Now they want to go back to their lord, their husband, and their father. Tell me, what reason should I use to stop them?"

Guo Jia was even more anxious: "Although that is the case, you are not the kind of person who gives up easily?"

"Who told you I gave up?"

As the spring breeze blew, He Yan's fists were clenched tightly in his sleeves unconsciously.

"As long as you calm down the north as soon as possible, and send your troops to the south, I want to see where you are going!"

Shu?
Or Jiaozhou?

He Yan turned around without looking back.

"The next time I catch you, if you still dare to run, I will really break your legs!"

…………

"Zilong? What's wrong?"

The carriage bumped on the road, and Guan Yu stabbed Zhao Yun beside him: "I'm going to see Mr. Xuande soon, shouldn't you be happy?"

Only then did Zhao Yun's slack pupils become more lively, and he suddenly asked Guan Yu, "He didn't want to keep me?"

"Ok?"

The joy on Guan Yu's face disappeared immediately, and he drove the carriage in a muffled voice, without speaking again.

At this moment, a group of vehicles came head-on, passing Guan Yu and Zhao Yun head-on.

In that convoy, there were two young scholars who were looking at Guan Yu Zhao Yun curiously.

One of the ugly-looking scholars was amazed: "Yuan Zhi, there are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the Central Plains. I see that the two coachmen just now are full of energy and blood, and they are full of spirits. They are by no means mediocre!"

Another scholar with a sword on his waist glanced at it and stopped looking: "Shi Yuan, be careful when approaching Xuchang, don't stare at others, so as not to cause any misunderstanding."

"Hehe, Yuan Zhi, I think you are worrying too much!"

These two scholars are exactly Xu Shu and Pang Tong who came all the way from Jingzhou.
