Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Cao Ang was enraged.

Jia Xu knew that his words had irritated Cao Ang.

Jia Xu knew that Cao Ang had always wanted to defeat Yuan Shao and his son. This was his inner desire.

Now that his secrets have been exposed by Jia Xu, how could Cao Ang not be angry?

"My lord, I am not trying to boost others' morale or destroy my own prestige, but I am telling the truth.

Yuan Shao and his son had been operating in Xuzhou for many years and had a strong foundation.

Together with Beihai Kingdom and Yanzhou, Yuan Shao's strength was extremely powerful.

Now that Xuzhou has fallen into the hands of Yuan Shao, if you want to defeat Yuan Shao, you must first defeat Xuzhou.

What the lord needs to do now is to accumulate strength, not take risks.

My lord, have you ever thought about who will rule the world if something happens to you?" Jia Xu asked.

Jia Xu's words made Cao Ang silent. If Liu Xie did not live up to his expectations and something happened to Cao Ang, there would be no one to govern the world.

"I can't back down. This time I must find out the details of Yuan Shao and his son.

I just don’t believe they can make any more waves.” Cao Ang decided.

Jia Xu sighed. He knew that if this continued, it would lead to a fight between two tigers and the fisherman would benefit.

But he couldn't stop Cao Ang's decision because Cao Ang couldn't change it now, so he could only follow Cao Ang's wishes.

Cao Ang suddenly remembered something and asked, "Wenhe, what has Cao Cao done during this period?"

Jia Xu replied: "My Lord, Cao Cao has done basically nothing except express his friendship to you.

Every day I drink and have fun in the mansion. My Lord, I suggest you don't meet with Cao Cao recently, so as to avoid being plotted against by Cao Cao."

Jia Xu's worries were not groundless. If Cao Ang met with Cao Cao frequently in the next few days, Cao Cao would definitely find a way to deal with Cao Ang.

"Okay, I understand." Cao Ang also felt that this was too risky, so he ordered: "Pass the order down, I won't allow anyone to approach the imperial study."

"Yes." The guard immediately went down to carry out the order.

Jia Xu breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Cao Ang would not do anything rash now. Cao Ang not only had to ensure his own safety, but also the safety of the royal family.

Cao Ang came up with a good idea, which was to let Liu Chan leave the palace on his behalf and go to Yecheng to visit Yuan Shao and his son.

"My lord, I have a suggestion." Jia Xu said.

"Wenhe, just say whatever you want to say." Cao Ang didn't want to think too much now.

"My lord, I think you can let the third young master leave the palace on your behalf. This way you can avoid a lot of trouble." Jia Xu offered a suggestion.

Cao Ang thought for a moment and said, "This method is feasible. But Wenhe, do you think Liu Bei and Guan Yu will agree?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "My lord, I am here with you. I am willing to run errands for you."

"Haha, I know you, an old fox, want to get some benefits.

In that case, please help me make a trip and communicate personally with my two beloved ministers, Liu Bei and Guan Yu.

As for salary and so on, just follow the normal way." Cao Ang said generously.

"Thank you, Lord!" Jia Xu said happily.

Jia Xu is now used to it. Although Cao Ang seems stingy, he is very generous as long as it does not touch on issues of principle.

Jia Xu rushed to Xuchang with the gifts given by Cao Ang to discuss the matter with Liu Bei and Guan Yu.

After Liu Bei and Guan Yu received Jia Xu's letter, their faces turned ugly.

They didn't expect that Cao Ang would use this method to force Cao Ang to send troops to Yanzhou.

Liu Bei sighed, "You are worthy of being an emperor. You can even come up with such a conspiracy.

But do they think we are fools? They actually threatened us with my third brother. "Guan Yu snorted coldly: "My lord is really despicable. We brothers swear to defend you to the death."

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Second brother, don't be impulsive. The lord is very powerful now, and we are no match for him.

If we didn't have Yanzhou, it would have been annexed by the lord long ago."

"Brother, are you going to give up Yanzhou just like that?" Guan Yu said unwillingly.

Liu Bei sighed and said, "Third brother, Yanzhou is our hometown.

If Yanzhou falls, we will be exiled and starve to death. So we must persevere to the end."

Guan Yu's eyes were red: "Brother, are we just going to endure Cao Ang's humiliation like this?"

"Alas." Liu Bei also wanted to take revenge on Cao Ang.

But he is not the same person now, and all his elite troops have been wiped out.

In addition, most of the nobles in the counties and prefectures of Yanzhou have surrendered to Cao Ang. If they resist again, they will have no place to stay.

Guan Yu understood Liu Bei’s difficulties, sighed, and said nothing more.

Liu Bei also hated Cao Ang very much, but he knew that he could only endure it now.

Liu Bei shifted his gaze to the other side and said, "Second brother, why haven't you heard any news about Chen Deng yet?

Is he in danger?"

"It shouldn't be possible. With Chen Deng's wisdom, there will definitely be no accidents.

Maybe something delayed him." Guan Yu guessed.

Liu Bei agreed and said, "Well, I think so."

"No matter what, Chen Deng must return safely.

Otherwise, we two brothers will have no chance." Guan Yu said with a fist.

"Brother, don't worry. Chen Deng will be fine."

Liu Bei was very confident in his think tank, and Chen Deng would definitely be safe.

"I hope so." Guan Yu nodded.

At the same time, Cao Cao in Nanyang also heard the news that Cao Ang had sent an envoy to Yecheng.

Cao Cao was not a fool. He knew why Cao Ang sent people here this time. He just wanted to win them over.

Unfortunately, Cao Cao had already made plans.

"Cao Ang wants to win us over? Do you really think I'm stupid?
Cao Ang is just a kid, but I am a member of the Han royal family and the nephew of Emperor Ling of Han.

Besides, there is a deep blood feud between me and Liu Xie, how could he possibly cooperate with me?" Cao Cao said contemptuously.

Cao Cao's aide Xun You also agreed with Cao Cao's point of view: "My lord, what you said makes sense.

In my opinion, we should stabilize Cao Ang first. When the battle with the general is over, we can contact Cao Ang and everything will be settled smoothly. "

"Mr. Zhongde, you are in charge of this matter." Cao Cao agreed with Xun You's plan.

"Yes!" Xun You responded with a bow.

"By the way, Mr. Zhongde, I remember that there was a brave and powerful general under Cao Ang, named Dian Wei. I wonder if you have heard of him." Cao Cao asked.

Xun You frowned and recalled Dian Wei's information, and after a long while he said, "My lord, you are talking about Lu Bu, right?

Lu Bu is indeed a heroic figure, and your subordinates have heard a little about him.

It is said that Lu Bu once rescued Cao Ang in Qingzhou, fought against Yuan Shu, and finally killed Yuan Shu.

I admire such a warrior. But his loyalty remains to be tested." (End of this chapter)
