The Necromancer of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 176 What should be lost will always be lost
The matter in Huainan was handed over to Zhen Yao and others. Yuan Xu stayed for a few more days before deciding to return to Yecheng.

Before the expedition, he only brought more than a hundred guards.

When he returned to Yecheng, he led an army of tens of thousands of people.

When the city of Shouchun was broken, some Cao soldiers left their weapons and changed into the clothes of the common people.

The evil corpse has a disadvantage. Once the enemy soldiers lose their fighting spirit, they are likely to be treated as civilians.

Cao Jun, who had saved his life, lay dormant for a few days. He planned to escape, but unexpectedly found that his captured colleagues were not badly treated.

Meat is eaten every day, and the new armor looks bright.

So some people tried to return to the army.

Yuan Xu was not too harsh on Cao Jun who returned.

Soldiers who are not suitable for further fighting will be dispatched to other places, where they will be farmers or handicraftsmen and live a stable life.

Those who are healthy and can be taken to the battlefield will be left in the army and returned to Yecheng with him.

The counselors and generals who had been under Cao Cao's command also returned with Yuan Xu.

After defeating Cao Cao, Yuan Xu's strength was greatly improved, and he became the strongest hero in the world.

After returning to Ye City, he saw the city gate, and Yuan Xu saw a group of people waiting there.

A fast horse came galloping.

When he was almost in front of him, Yuan Xu realized that it was Deng Zhan who came over.

"Who is outside the city gate?" Yuan Xu asked Deng Zhan after seeing him.

Deng Zhan replied: "Your Majesty heard that the young master is coming back, so he summoned everyone to wait outside the city gate."

"He really bothered." Yuan Xu smiled lightly, and then said to Cao Cao who was following him: "Meng De and His Majesty are old friends."

Cao Cao was very embarrassed, and said to Yuan Xu, "Your Majesty may wish to swallow me alive."

"What happened back then is over." Yuan Xu replied, "I will take you to see him from time to time."

Cao Cao was once a hero in the world, so how could he not understand what Yuan Xu meant.

Liu Xie was so afraid of Cao Cao that he didn't even dare to say a word with confidence.

Yuan Xu defeated Cao Cao and made him the chief bookkeeper.

The person who once made him fearful was conquered by another person. How dare Liu Xie make any calculations with Yuan Xu in the future?

Knowing Yuan Xu's intention, Cao Cao didn't say anything, and walked with him to the city gate.

When Yuan Xu came to the gate of the city, Liu Xie greeted him.

Seeing Cao Cao, he was taken aback for a moment, but he still walked over bravely.

"Xianxin is back." Liu Xie greeted Yuan Xu, "I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Your Majesty is bothering you." Yuan Xu did not get off his horse, but looked at Cao Cao: "I wonder if Your Majesty still remembers Meng De?"

When Yuan Xu mentioned Cao Cao, Liu Xie knew he couldn't avoid it, so he nodded to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was respectful and dismounted to return the gift to Liu Xie.

At the beginning, he only covered the sky with one hand, so of course he would not give Liu Xie room to breathe.

Now that he has become Yuan Xu's master book, Cao Cao can only keep a low profile no matter how powerful he looks.

Someone brought a horse for Liu Xie, and he accompanied Yuan Xu into Yecheng.

When entering the city, Yuan Xu asked him: "Your Majesty is still used to living in Yecheng these days?"

"I'm used to it." Liu Xie replied, "Since I came to Yecheng, I have lived comfortably every day. I definitely don't want to leave here again."

Yuan Xu laughed loudly: "Your Majesty will leave sooner or later."

"Why?" Liu Xie looked bewildered: "Xianxin wants to drive me away?"

"How is that possible." Yuan Xu replied, "Yecheng is not suitable to be a capital after all. When I take Zuofengyi and Gyeonggi-do and other places, people will rebuild Luoyang. At that time, won't your majesty have to leave?"

Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief: "I will still be chased away by Xianxin."

"Master Cao." Yuan Xu greeted Cao Cao.

Cao Cao stepped forward.

He ordered: "Your Majesty will live in the future, and you will arrange someone to take care of him, okay?"

Yuan Xu asked Cao Cao to take care of his daily life, Liu Xie was surprised: "Xianxin wants to..."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Yuan Xu said, "Meng De is now my Master Register, and he will never treat the royal family as he used to."

He was coerced by Cao Cao for several years, and Liu Xie would feel his legs go weak when he saw him.

How could he believe that Cao Cao would treat him sincerely.

Yuan Xu asked Cao Cao, "Did Meng De say so?"

"Your Majesty is right." Cao Cao replied, "From now on, I will do my best to take good care of Your Majesty."

First send Liu Xie to the palace, explain to Cao Cao what is wrong there, and make improvements, Yuan Xu returns to the mansion.

It's been a while since we saw each other, so of course he and Zhen Mi must have a tender moment.

Not to mention Yuan Xu's side, the young couple was newlywed after a long absence, and during the day they were bored with crookedness and doing some shameful things.

Let's just talk about Liu Xie. After returning to the palace, he was accompanied by Cao Cao to the bedroom.

When Fuhou saw Cao Cao, he was also taken aback.

She habitually saluted Cao Cao.

Cao Cao hurriedly returned the salute respectfully: "You don't have to do this in the future, the queen, I can't bear it!"

When Cao Cao saw Liu Xie and his wife earlier, he still looked arrogant.

Arrange for Liu Xie to issue an edict, and if he is a little slower, he will give him a hard look.

Now in Yecheng, it seems like a different person, making Liu Xiehe feel uncomfortable.

Liu Xie said to Cao Cao: "It's actually very good here, so don't worry about Cao Gong."

"I still have to do what the young master told you." Cao Cao replied, "If your Majesty thinks there is any need for improvement, I will deal with it myself."

"Mr. Cao is so flattering." Liu Xie replied: "Since I came to Yecheng, I have lived comfortably every day, and I don't feel that there is anything that needs to be improved."

"How are the people around His Majesty?" Cao Cao asked.

"It's all good." Liu Xie was afraid that Cao Cao would change the people around him.

Although these people were all placed by Yuan Xu, they still took good care of him and Empress Fu on weekdays, which was much better than the maids and regular attendants Cao Cao had arranged for him.

Liu Xie's reaction made Cao Cao sigh in his heart.

In Xudu back then, his care for Liu Xie was not bad.

In addition to being used as a puppet, the emperor has never been short of everything else he needs.

But at that time, although Liu Xie tried his best to suppress his hatred for him, Cao Cao could clearly feel it.

Yuan Xu's care for him was nothing more than that, but from the emperor, he could not feel any hatred at all.

Cao Cao couldn't help but asked Liu Xie: "Your Majesty has arrived in Yecheng, why do people feel much more comfortable than before?"

Liu Xie murmured in his heart: Why did I feel aggrieved in Xudu in the past? Don't you have any points in your heart?

Although Cao Cao had been defeated by Yuan Xu, there was no need to be afraid of him anymore, Liu Xie replied very politely: "Xian Xin never restrained me, and even left some matters to me to take care of."

He motioned to get some documents from the back, and handed them to Cao Cao: "These are all done by me."

Cao Cao took the document and browsed it casually, and his head was suddenly covered with black lines.

The things that made Liu Xie feel useful to him were all trivial matters, and even the county magistrate didn't bother to ask about them.
