Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 452: Cao Yan

() The guard clasped his fists and promised, Zhang Xiu, who was hiding in the dark, felt that there was something wrong. Could it be that the guard and Xia Han were members of the army, so it must be that the merchants colluded with the army to buy and sell weapons, but as long as they have money, they can buy whatever they want. No one can stop him, why is Xia Han so worried that the weapons in the carriage will be exposed.

After these few days, Jia Rong and Miss Mi's family became more and more acquainted, but Miss Mi still refused to tell her real name, Jia Rong actually already knew the answer, but it just added to the topic of the two being together.

The convoy finally arrived in Xuzhou. Xuzhou is a big state in the Central Plains. Under Tao Qian's governance, it was also called Shangronghua. Although Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou before, the city was still bustling with people coming and going on the streets, shouting The cries of selling were endless, and a group of servants also devotedly explained to Jia Rong.

After entering the city, Jia Rong found an opportunity to slip away, and just wanted to hitch a ride with the caravan, not to mention that the water in Xuzhou was not clear.

"Go secretly and meet Mi Zhu, let him take precautions against the Chen family." Jia Rong said slowly after glancing at the Xia family's information handed over by the lone wolf soldier.

"No!" Now in Xuzhou, there are only Jia Rong and him on the bright side, but there are more than a hundred lone wolf soldiers guarding them in the dark. In Xuzhou City, there is nothing to be afraid of. Mi Zhu has provided great help to the development of the Xiliang Army, and Jia Rong naturally does not want him to stumble in the hands of the Chen family.

"My lord, there's a message from the military adviser to let my lord go back early." Zhang Xiu said.

Jia Rong laughed and said: "It's hard to come out once, how can I go back so easily, and stay in the Central Plains for a while, watching the changes in the Central Plains, and preparing for our army to enter the Central Plains in the future."

Seeing that what Jia Rong said was not unreasonable, Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.

"The military division has sent two hundred lone wolf soldiers to protect the safety of the lord, and it is expected to have entered the city of Xuzhou at this time." Zhang Xiu said.

Jia Rong nodded to express his understanding.

When Mi Zhu received such a mysterious letter, after opening it for a rough look, his face changed slightly, but he hid it well, and couldn't help opening the letter in his hand again, reading word by word.

"My lord, now that Cao Jun has retreated, why don't Liu Bei and others return to Xiapi." Mi Zhu persuaded.

Yuan Shao attacked Qingzhou, Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, Cao Cao was unable to attack Xuzhou, but Xuzhou was also devastated by Cao's army, especially the counties around Pengcheng, which were devastated.

Tao Qian stroked his gray beard, and said slowly: "Zizhong, Xuzhou is the place where the Four World Wars took place. The old man is already old. I want to let Xuzhou be governed by Liu Bei. What do you think?"

Mi Zhu was startled, and persuaded: "My lord, this matter is not trivial. You need to discuss it with Xuzhou officials before making a decision. Besides, your lord has a son."

"Liu Bei is a member of the royal family, and he is generous and generous, and he is very popular with the people. He has such peerless generals as Zhang Fei and Guan Yu under his command. It would be good if Xuzhou was handed over to him." Tao Qian murmured.

Mi Zhu secretly said: "In a while, I'm afraid I don't want to hand over Xuzhou to Liu Bei. The Cao family has already moved closer to Liu Bei, and the Chen family may become the target of wooing." Suddenly thinking of what was said in the mysterious letter, The goodwill towards the Chen family was gone, and Mi Zhu didn't want to get involved in such pretentious things, so he spent his whole life running around. Mi Wei was also a senior general in the Xiliang Army, and his family fortune could not be spent in a few lifetimes, so what was there to do.

"Let's take my leave first." Mi Zhu cupped his fists and left.

Tao Qian's own attitude is to support Liu Bei, and what's the use of that mysterious letter reminding himself, maybe someone in Xuzhou doesn't want Liu Bei to become bigger.

However, Mi Zhu was very angry that Xuzhou businessmen bought armaments from the Xiliang Army in his own name.

Yuelai Inn is considered a good inn in Xuzhou. The most attractive thing is that it can provide good wine here. It has become a place where the upper class people in Xuzhou gather. It is quite ordinary enough to have a meal here. People's expenses for half a year.

Jia Rong was sitting by the window on the second floor, sipping wine, which was quite a pleasure.

"Serve me the best food in your restaurant!"

Hearing this arrogant voice, Jia Rong suddenly felt a little familiar. He remembered that the lady from Jingzhou also appeared in the same way. Could it be that she came, and Jia Rong's heart skipped a beat.

The footsteps of "thump, thump, thump" sounded, and Jia Rong couldn't help but look back. He was a little dumbfounded, and hurriedly cast his gaze elsewhere, picked up the wine glass and pretended to drink, and covered his face.

"Check out, let's go!" Jia Rong said in a low voice.

At this moment, a disharmonious voice sounded: "My uncle is in a good mood today. I have booked this restaurant. Everyone can eat and drink as much as they want, and all accounts will be charged to the Cao family."

Jia Rong, who just got up, heard the voice, and sat down unhurriedly. In Xuzhou, the only one who can be so rampant this time is the Cao family where Cao Bao belongs. Liu Bei approached, preparing to help him acquire Xuzhou, and had a close relationship with Liu Bei secretly. Of course, all of this had something to do with Tao Qian's attitude. The old master of Xuzhou had vaguely appointed a new generation of heirs.

"Everyone in the restaurant hurry up and get out." Dozens of servants rushed into the restaurant and shouted arrogantly.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant stepped forward with an ugly face, "Mr. Cao, this is not good, Mr. Mi!"

Hmph, get the hell out of here, Mr. Ben is in a good mood today, he doesn't care about you like you, what's wrong with Master Mi, he's just a small businessman.Mr. Cao pushed the shopkeeper aside and sneered.

"It seems that Mi Zhu is not doing well in Xuzhou city." Jia Rong thought to himself.

"Bold!"

Mr. Cao followed the sound, his eyes straightened immediately, and he hurried forward, "Miss Mi, why are you here?"

"I just heard someone speak ill of the Mi family."

Mr. Cao looked around, "Whoever said it, dare to speak ill of the Mi family here, I don't want to live anymore."

Jia Rong couldn't stop laughing secretly, why the Cao family has such a top-notch son.

"Huan'er, I'm afraid it's not good for you to dress up like this. It will be our wedding day in half a month." Speaking of this, Mr. Cao's eyes flashed with lust.

Mi Huan is Mi Zhu's younger sister, and she is a well-known beauty in Xuzhou. Cao Bao also made great efforts to marry Mr. Cao. It is said that Liu Bei had a relationship with her at the beginning, and she was shocked. He wanted to marry him, but Mi Zhu politely refused.

"Who said he was going to marry you, go away, don't delay my lady drinking." Mi Huan glared at Mr. Cao.

Mr. Cao retreated resolutely, but he looked at Mi Huan with some resentment before leaving.

"You three, get out of here." Mr. Cao, who was feeling upset, scolded Jia Rong when he saw the three of them who were close to Mi Huan.

Zhang Xiu looked up at Mr. Cao, then lowered his head to drink again, as if he didn't hear Mr. Cao's words.

Mr. Cao was startled, and the servants behind him made him bolder, and he winked at one of the servants.

"Didn't you hear that my son told you to go away?" In the city, no one has ever dared to openly disobey Mr. Cao's order. Cao Bao is the only son who loves him very much on weekdays, wishing to pluck the stars from the sky and give him to him.

Jia Rong and Zhao Fan were still drinking with their heads down, not paying attention to the servants of the Cao family at all.

Mi Huan also turned her eyes to Jia Rong curiously. When she saw Jia Rong and Zhang Xiu, her face was full of surprise. Although she changed into decent clothes, Mi Huan easily recognized them. However, during the days spent with Jia Airong, Mi Huan also felt an unprecedented sense of happiness, which was a feeling she had never had in Mi's house, especially Jia Rong always liked to tell some jokes that made people blush.

"These three are my friends, Cao Yan, don't make things difficult for them." Mi Huan said.

Cao Yan gave Jia Rong and the three of them a bitter look, thinking it was Mi Huan who said something casually because he didn't like them, so he took his servants and left.

"Why are you three here? Aren't you servants of some family?" Mi Huan asked.

Jia Rong took a look at Mi Huan's attire, and couldn't help but chuckled. This woman disguised as a man is too different. She is far from Miss Cai in Jingzhou. It's no wonder that even the waves on her chest haven't been completely covered. Who made Mi Huan feel a little turbulent?

Mi Huan followed Jia Rong's gaze, and immediately blushed, cursing softly, "Deng Tuzi."

"Oh, this, to tell you the truth, Miss Mi, the three of us are actually murderers. We came to Xuzhou only to get rid of the pursuit of the Chang'an government. We just got in the middle of the convoy that day." Jia Rong lied without blinking. of.

"Ah, who are you?" Mi Huan asked in surprise.

Jia Rong made a silent gesture, "Keep quiet!"

Mi Huan nodded with a pale face. Although she was usually savage, she did not dare to imagine sitting with a murderer.

"Then, hero Liang Jia, if there is nothing else, I'll go first." Mi Huan stammered nervously.

Jia Rong waved his hand indifferently, signaling him to leave.

"Don't forget to settle the bill!" Jia Rong reminded.

Mi Huan's footsteps faltered, and she almost fell. He heard people mention that those murderers always stabbed them from behind when they were about to leave. The previous favor towards Jia Rong disappeared because of his status as a murderer.

"Okay... okay..." Mi Huan said.

"My lord, this is not very good. It seems that Miss Mi has a crush on you." Zhang Xiu teased.

Jia Rong smiled and said, "Get lost."

Having said that, Jia Rong followed the direction of the window and cast his eyes on the figure who was leaving in a hurry.

"Zhang Xiu, let's go too." Jia Rong saw two sneaky figures following Mi Huan.

Mi Huan came out disguised as a man, and there were only two servant girls by her side.

"How's it going? In a dilapidated house in the city, a slightly deep voice asked, with anxiety and excitement in his tone.
