The Legend of Pei Yuanqing of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 227

Cao Jun’s camp outside Jingzhou City, a group of Cao Jun’s generals surrounded Cao Cao and returned. Cao Cao’s face was extremely dark, and he was obviously in a bad mood. Just now they ended another battle with Liu Bei. The two generals fought fiercely, but neither took advantage. Each wins and loses.

After entering the big tent, everyone sat down one by one according to the order of seating, with the counselor on one side and the general on the other.

Cao Cao looked at so many strategists and fierce generals, but he couldn't help Liu Bei who sold straw sandals. This is really incredible!
I still remember when discussing heroes with Liu Bei, he said that only Liu Bei and he are the real heroes in today’s world, but that’s just him testing Liu Bei’s jokes, if he really thinks Liu Bei is a future rival, Cao Cao would have made excuses long ago I have killed Liu Bei hundreds of times, how can I wait until Liu Bei does what he does today?

Things in this world are really unpredictable, God's will is unpredictable, a joke has come true.

Cao Cao's face darkened as he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. Yuan Shao didn't put such a lot of pressure on him at the beginning, but Liu Bei was really a big mountain pressing him down, he was a little out of breath. Liu Bei is definitely a scourge. I can't sleep in my dreams!

When everyone was silent, a cavalry messenger hurried into the big tent, knelt down and held the letter and said, "Prime Minister! A letter from General Xiahouyuan. General Xiahouyuan was defeated and is on his way back!"

"What? Xiahouyuan failed? This is impossible! 10,000+ army, several generals, and the top strategist Li Ru gave advice, but,,,, unexpectedly, they couldn't attack Hanzhong?" He couldn't stand still, but fortunately, Cao Hong who was beside him had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and he supported Cao Cao in one fell swoop.

Others were shocked when they heard the news, all of you looked at me and I looked at you, I didn't know what to say.

Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Xia Houdun, Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Li Dianle, Jin Yujin and other generals all flocked to Cao Cao, cupped their hands worriedly and said, "My lord, take care of yourself!"

Cao Cao originally had five great advisers, but after the death of the ghost Guo Jia, there were only four top-notch advisers left: Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Xun You, and Jia Xu. His forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his face was full of pain.

Xun You said with difficulty, "Prime Minister, is your headache coming back?"

"I'm fine, hurry up, show me the letter, I want to know what's going on with Xia Houyuan's battle!" Cao Cao said, holding back his headache.

"Letter, quick, give the letter to the prime minister!!" Cao Ren said immediately, and soon, the letter was passed on, and Cao Ren took it and hurriedly sent it to Cao Cao.

Cao Ren helped to open the letter, and Cao Cao looked at it in a daze. Looking at Cao Cao, he became angry and kicked down a table angrily. Li Ru is a first-class strategist, why didn't he listen to what he said, insisted on going his own way, and finally led to such a big defeat, hundreds of thousands of troops were wiped out, and even lost one of my good generals, Xia Houyuan, you are really successful There is more than enough to fail!"

"You still have the face to come back to see me, but you insist on rushing to go, and even issued a military order, how can you convince the crowd if you don't kill you?" Cao Cao said sadly, his firm tone moved everyone.

Shocked, Xiahou Dun quickly knelt down and begged, "My lord, think twice!"

The rest of the generals and counselors also knelt down to intercede for Xia Houyuan, "My lord, please think twice! General Xia Houyuan cannot be killed, but beheading a general in battle is a taboo. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. How can General Xiahouyuan be innocent if he is not a sage?" The general will make up for his mistakes, and the prime minister will not lose an arm!"

Cao Cao couldn't listen to it at all, and said firmly, "Xia Houyuan returns, capture him immediately, and execute the law on the spot!!!"

"Prime Minister!!!" Xiahou Dun turned pale with shock, he didn't expect Cao Cao to be so heartless.

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan are brothers of the same mother, so among all the people, he is most worried about Xiahouyuan.

But there are also people who are not worried. Jia Xu and other top counselors have bright eyes, and Cao Cao is not a fatuous person. How could he be willing to kill Xia Houyuan?Besides, what is the relationship between Xia Houyuan and Cao Cao?The origin is very deep.

It's just that it's hard for Cao Cao to explain to everyone if he doesn't do this. Cao Cao also knows that everyone will intercede, but today's matter is too serious, so ordinary intercession is useless, and he has to wait for Xia Houyuan to come back to intercede in person.

Therefore, counselors such as Jia Xu, Xun You, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu smiled bitterly in their hearts, and there was nothing they could do now.

"Ah!" Suddenly Cao Cao screamed, holding his head in his hands and wailing endlessly, and his headache had another attack.

"Quickly withdraw the troops,,, this place is not suitable to stay for a long time!" Cao Cao endured a headache and said with difficulty, and then immediately passed out.

The generals were shocked, calling out for consecutive victories, but there was no movement at all.

"Quickly send the military doctor!" Cheng Yu said immediately.

Soon, the military doctor came over, hurriedly diagnosed Cao Cao, and finally said with a sigh, "Prime Minister, this is a headache attack, and the severe pain caused him to be unconscious. We can only wait for the prime minister to wake up by himself. It's better not to be stimulated, otherwise the headache will still attack, I will prescribe some conditioning prescriptions, and when the prime minister wakes up, I will boil the medicine for the prime minister to drink, which can weaken the prime minister's pain."

Jia Xu frowned and said, "Is there no way to cure it?"

The military doctor smiled wryly and shook his head, and said, "It's not that easy, there are very few people in the world who can be cured of this disease."

"That is to say, there is still someone who can heal? Which genius doctor is it? Please let the military doctor know!"

The military doctor's eyes flickered, he looked at the unconscious Cao Cao, shook his head and said, "Originally there was a medical master who could see the sky in front of his eyes, he was Ji Ping, the imperial physician, but he... Reversal of cause and effect!"

Everyone was silent for a while, because Ji Ping was indeed a person with superb medical skills, the head of the imperial physician, but because Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty did not want to be controlled by Cao Cao, he secretly wrote a clothes belt edict and handed it to Dong Cheng, the uncle of the state, and Dong Cheng went home to watch After hearing it, he couldn't cry, but he has no military power and nothing. How can he help Han Xiandi get rid of Cao Cao?

So thinking hard, he thought of his good friend Ji Ping, the imperial physician, and he found Ji Ping overnight for a consultation. In the end, the two joined forces and planned to pretend to help Cao Cao heal the disease, and then murdered Cao Cao with poison.

But because Dong Cheng's slave Qin Qingtong had an affair with Dong Cheng's concubine, Dong Cheng beat him more than a dozen sticks, so Qin Qingtong held a grudge, and Qin Qingtong overheard Dong Cheng and Ji Ping's plan, so he went to Cao Cao to report After killing them, Cao Cao was furious in the end and sent someone to directly destroy them all.

After a long silence, Jia Xu asked the military doctor again, besides Ji Ping, who else is a genius doctor?

The military doctor shook his head and sighed, "It's useless. There are three other people whose whereabouts are erratic, and they can't be found at all. Their medical skills are still higher than that of Jiping's imperial physician!"

"Who is it?" Everyone quickly looked at the military doctor, waiting for the military doctor's answer.

The military doctor had no choice but to say, "They are Dong Feng, Hua Tuo, and Zhang Zhongjing!"
