The most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Boss Cao advised me to calm down!

Chapter 419 The Prime Minister Has a Successor

Compared with history, he led his troops to be trapped in Xichuan for two years.

Only after the loss of Pang Tong and the loss of benevolence and righteousness did he take Yizhou with great difficulty.

Liu Bei in this time and space did not have even half of Jingzhou in his hands, but he was still able to invade Shu.

In other words, Liu Zhang of Yizhou was really awesome.

He couldn't even beat the castrated version of Liu Bei.

If you think about it carefully, Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun are not under Liu Bei's command now.

Perhaps when he entered Sichuan, he didn't even bring Guan Yu and Zhang Fei with him.

Even Zhuge Liang was not by his side.

Sima De guessed that Liu Bei would rely on Wei Yan on this trip.

And the surrender method is giving advice.

Even with such a simple lineup, they were able to defeat Liu Zhang, who occupied an entire state, and force him to retreat step by step.

To the point of offering land and surrendering!
For a moment, even Sima De couldn't help but admire Liu Bei.

This guy is really an invincible cockroach!

Just as Sima De's thoughts were in a state of confusion, an urgent call suddenly sounded in his ears.

"My Lord! It seems that Xun Ling's army has been waiting for our army at the city gate for a long time."

Xu Shu's words instantly awakened Sima De from his deep thoughts.

He looked up at this moment, his eyes passing through the crowd.

His attention was immediately fixed on the calm and distinguished figure standing at the outline of the city gate - Xun Yu.

But his father-in-law, Cao Cao, had already ridden his horse ahead.

The figure cast a long shadow in the sunlight and approached the city gate.

As soon as he saw this scene, Sima De reacted immediately.

In a hurry, he immediately pulled Cao Zhang beside him and rode his horse to catch up!
Accompanied by a loud "Gee!", dust flew up.

Sima De had no time to consider the impact of Liu Bei's early seizure of Shu.

The anxiety in his heart grew like weeds, which was what he feared.

It is the delicate and fragile balance between his father-in-law Cao Cao and Xun Yu.

What kind of storm would be caused if the two sides fell out at the gate of Xudu in front of the entire army?

The restoration of the five ranks of nobility in the Nine Provinces had already created a rift between the two of them.

The previous incident over a box of pastries brought the conflict between the two to the surface.

Now that Cao Cao had won the southern expedition, Xun Yu once again led his troops to stand at the city gate.

This might be another case of old friends turning against each other!
Thinking of this, Sima De felt that something was wrong.

I also felt that I needed to step forward quickly to ease the atmosphere.

And when Sima De and Cao Zhang were on par with each other.

When he caught up with Cao Cao at the gate of Xudu.

The tense situation that Sima De had expected did not occur.

On the contrary, Cao Cao jumped off his horse nimbly.

A loud laugh pierced the air, bringing with it a rare sense of ease and joy.

He now stepped forward quickly, his eyes full of concern.

He gently helped Xun Yu, who was bowing, up.

It was as if the unpleasantness between the two had never existed.

The so-called empty lunch box incident was just a rumor among the people.

"Wen Ruo!" Cao Cao's tone was extremely cordial at this time.

"You know, when the news of your lingering illness reached the front line."

"I was so distraught."

"Today, seeing that you have recovered as before, I am finally relieved."

After saying this, Cao Cao tightly grasped Xun Yu's arm.

That intimate gesture is so warm that it makes people forget the cool autumn breeze.

"Come on, let's go through the city gate together."

Xun Yu responded to Cao Cao's enthusiasm with a faint smile, and there was a complex and indistinguishable light flashing in his eyes.

"Thanks to the Prime Minister's concern, I was able to escape death. This is God's will."

"If it weren't for God's blessing, Yu might have already become a person on the road to the underworld, and the prime minister and I would have been separated by the Yin and Yang."

There was a hint of sarcasm in these words, but Cao Cao seemed unaware of it.

Just a burst of hearty laughter in response.

"If what you said makes sense, you and I have both reached the age of knowing our destiny, and life and death are unpredictable."

Cao Cao's eyes suddenly became deep.

"But being alive is better than nothing."

After that, he did not allow Xun Yu to say anything more. He turned to Cao Zhang Sima De who was following behind him and said sternly:
"Ziwen! Renda! What are you two standing there for?"

"Wen Ruo has just recovered from a serious illness, why don't you come over and lend a hand!"

Sima De reacted immediately after hearing Cao Cao's shout.

He dismounted at the same time as Cao Zhang and trotted to Xun Yu's side.

The two of them hurried forward cautiously.

Cao Zhang said nervously:

"Don't worry, Lord Xun. Let Renda and I help you."

"Be careful, be careful."

Seeing this, Cao Cao let go of his hand without saying a word.

Xun Yu's hand was handed over to Cao Zhang and Sima De.

And Xun Yu, a wise man of his time.

Naturally, one can feel the subtle chill in it.

From the moment Cao Cao let go to Cao Zhang's respectful support.

He suddenly felt mixed emotions.

I never expected that I would be manipulated by fate in my later years.

While he gradually drifted away from Cao Cao, he also formed an indissoluble bond with his descendants.

At this moment, this scene was seen by the soldiers of the three armies behind him.

Isn't it just the two generations of Cao's monarchs and ministers walking together, a scene of peaceful and tender times.

But Xun Yu knew very well that even though Cao Cao praised him as a talent who could assist the king, he was still a minister of the Han Dynasty after all.

How could he deserve the continuous support from Cao Cao and his son Cao Zhang?

So, Xun Yu waved his hand to Cao Zhang.

Choose to only accept Sima De's support.

At the same time, he showed approval to Cao Zhang.

"The lord once said that you are a reckless person."

"I never expected that the battle in Guanzhong would bring us the most courageous of the three armies."

"When a man has been away for three days, he should be treated with new eyes."

He was filled with emotion at this moment, even though he knew of his differences with Cao Cao.

As for Cao Zhang, he still couldn't help but praise him sincerely:
"The Prime Minister has his successor!"

Cao Cao on the side also laughed when he heard this:
"Wen Ruo's words are too heavy, if my Huang Xu'er is praised again."

"I'm afraid he will become too proud and arrogant!"

There was a hint of joking in his words.

But it also implies the complex emotions a father has for his son.

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhang and Sima De looked at each other.

They all kept the two elders company with smiles on their faces and did not give any further answers.

Cao Cao was still laughing heartily, and his laughter seemed to be mixed with a bit of excitement that made him look down on his fellow lords.

It seemed as if everything in the world was under his control.

"Let's go into the city. We'll talk in detail after we get in."

Following Cao Cao's call, a group of people marched in.

It seems to be isolated from the noise and dust of the outside world.

Behind Cao Cao and others, there was Xun You, hidden among the counselors and civil servants.

At this time, standing outside the city gate, he watched the figures of Cao Cao, Sima De and Xun Yu gradually walking away.

His mind was filled with many thoughts, thinking about the wrong decisions his uncle Xun Yu had made.

Now, with the ingenious arrangement of fate, things seem to be back on track.

He felt an inexplicable sense of relief and anticipation in his heart.

Just as Xun You was thinking silently.

A face full of beard.

He suddenly appeared in front of Xun You, which scared him immediately.

When Xun You saw that it was the rough guy Cao Hong, he calmed down.

He frowned and asked:

"General Zilian, what can I do for you?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Hong asked in a low voice:

"Gongda, you are from the Xun clan of Yingchuan."

"But have you been persuaded by that kid Renda?"

"Now you are going to place your bet on my nephew Ziwen?"
