I heard Cao Yi say that he was willing to return to Xudu.

Zhen Mi and Mrs. Bian were naturally full of joy.

Without saying a word, he went to clean up.

And Cao Pi was not idle, and hurriedly began to mobilize soldiers from everywhere.

Although the probability of encountering assassins on the way to Xudu is not high.

But now that he has encountered two assassins in succession, Cao Pi is still a little uneasy.

The Tiger Guards cannot be sent.

After all, after Cao Yi left, Xu Chu had to take the Tiger Guards to Cao Cao’s side.

Cao Yi took the opportunity before leaving.

He plans to go to the prison to arrange the aftermath of the three assassins.

“Little master, there is a new discovery.”

Just when Cao Yi came to the prison, Man Pet said mysteriously.

As he spoke, he took out a beige nephrite accessory from the side.

“What is this?”

Cao Yi couldn’t help frowning slightly, and said suspiciously.

Full pet said in a deep voice:

“The lower official doesn’t know.”

“This object was found on an assassin.”

“Speaking of which, this nephrite looks like it should be used by a woman.”

“How could it appear on an assassin?”

Man Pet said while rubbing his chin, puzzled.

Cao Yi frowned slightly.

Man Pet is right that this nephrite jade could not appear on an assassin who was a dead man.

But not necessarily female.

However, this piece of jade is extremely warm and looks valuable.

It should be worn by a person of noble birth.

In other words, this person is very likely to have some connection with the mastermind behind the scenes.

If that’s the case…

Obviously, it can’t be Jiangdong or someone sent by Liu Bei.

They don’t have a habit of bringing this nephrite.

However, among the northern warriors, some people like to wear this nephrite accessory.

Thinking of this, Cao Yi became more and more determined to go to Xudu.

Although the main purpose of these assassins was to kill Lu Lingqi and Lingyu.

But it is obvious that they are also murderous for themselves.

Northern warriors, assassination…

Things are getting more and more interesting.

Cao Yi wanted to see how chaotic this north was.

……

At the same time, Xu Du.

A middle-aged man with a resolute face and wearing an official uniform was narrowing his eyes at the letter in his hand.

This person is none other than Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo.

“Wen Ruo, did the minister reply to the letter?”

“Can you say when you will be back?”

Cui Yan on the side asked a little anxiously.

Cui Yan, character Ji Jue, famous Cui family member of Qinghe County.

He is famous and highly respected, so he has a good relationship with Xun Yu.

Although he had previously followed Yuan Shao, he was still loyal after following Cao Cao.

“Cheng Xiang said…”

Xun Yu couldn’t help but let out a long sigh and said in a deep voice:

“Minister Cheng has no plans to come back.”

“It seems that before Minister Cheng pacifies Jiangdong, he doesn’t plan to return to Xudu.”

Hearing this, Cui Yan’s face was startled, and then he said helplessly:

“Xun Lingjun, this…”

“Then what did the minister say in this letter?”

Xun Yu said in a deep voice:

“It’s just that I want Xiaogongzi to come back, and make Xiaogongzi Xuzhou Mu, and return to Xudu to take charge of the post of minister.”

Cui Yan bowed his head slightly and said in a deep voice:

“It seems that Minister Cheng is determined not to come back.”

“It’s just… Young Master Cao Pi is still too young, and he is only afraid of embarrassment. ”

Xun Yu looked at Cui Yan and said word by word:

“Not Young Master Cao Pi.”

“It’s a little master.”

“Cao Yi.”

Cao Yi?!

Hearing these two words, Cui Yan didn’t react at first.

But then, he suddenly woke up:

“But the son of Cao Pi’s son, Cao Yi?”

Xun Yu nodded silently.

At this time, Cui Yan was completely dumbfounded:

“This… What does this mean? ”

“If only Young Master Cao Pi came back to take charge of the overall situation temporarily.”

“Young Master Cao Yi… I remember he was only five years old, right? ”

Xun Yu also let out a long sigh.

He really didn’t understand why he had to send Cao Yi over.

Naturally, he didn’t know anything about the front, he just knew the victory or defeat.

At present, there are many families of corporals, and many people with bad intentions abound.

In this case, how could Cao Yi be suppressed?

I’m afraid that Cao Yi is coming, and it will only add laughing matter.

But in the envelope that Cao Cao brought back, the tone was full of doubt.

Xun Yu, who had followed Cao Cao for many years, knew very well.

At this time, no matter what Cao Cao said, he would not listen to it.

Cui Yan also seemed to know that the matter had been decided, and no longer asked, but instead said:

“Wen Ruo, do you think that Minister Cheng is fighting in Jiangdong this time, even at the expense of turmoil in the north.”

“Where is his mind?”

Hearing this, Xun Yu’s eyes suddenly flashed with surprise.

The implication of Cui Yan’s words is very obvious.

In fact, the safest way to attack Jiangdong this time should be gradual.

It is not easy to take Jiangdong by itself.

Even Sun Jian and Sun Ce took a long time to pacify Jiangdong.

Now it takes years and months to attack the east of the Yangtze River all the way from the Yangtze River Tianguan.

However, under these circumstances, Cao Cao still chose to attack urgently.

It can be said that it will be at all costs and consequences.

From this, it is enough to see that Cao Cao most likely already had a strange intention of being unfaithful to Han.

In this world, it was for him Cao A to hide from himself.

“Cheng Xiang’s meaning, I still don’t have to think about it later.”

Although his heart was already like a mirror, Xun Yu still spoke.

At this time, Cao Cao was still the minister of the Great Han Dynasty.

Everything is nothing more than speculation.

“Minister Cheng this year, it’s already fifty out of three…”

Cui Yan let out a long sigh, left the last sentence and turned to leave.

Three out of fifty …

It is said that fifty knows the destiny of heaven.

Cao Cao’s move is probably no longer for the great Han to win the world, but to fight for the juniors.

Xun Yu tried to restrain himself and didn’t think about it.

The question now is why Cao Cao sent Cao Yi and gave Cao Yi so much power.

Xun Yu didn’t know how talented Cao Yi had.

Therefore, Cao Cao did this, which only explained one point in Xun Yu’s eyes.

Cao Cao wanted to inform the world through this matter.

He is already covering the sky with one hand.

Even sending a five-year-old child can shock the world and intimidate the north.

This time, Cao Yi came on vacation, mainly with the army back.

For some reason, a strong sense of uneasiness suddenly rose in Xun Yu’s heart.

“Cao Mengde, if you really have the heart to usurp Han.”

“That… Forgive me for not following. ”

Xun Yu muttered, his voice so small that only he could hear it.

With that, he turned and left the room.

……

“How is the battle situation at Tongguan?”

After cleaning up his mood, Xun Yu summoned the city Chinese Wu and asked.

Xia Houyuan said in a deep voice:

“Yesterday’s battle report came, and then Ma Teng Hansui was still outside Tongguan.”

“Although the tiger and leopard cavalry has fought many times with the Western Liang army, there are casualties in each other.”

“But Ma Teng has no intention of retreating, and it seems that there is still a faint tendency to attack.”

“I’m afraid, Tongguan needs to add more manpower support.”

Hearing this, the general couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

I am afraid that the situation in Tongguan cannot be delayed any longer.

The tiger and leopard rode five thousand, and the army was one hundred thousand.

He has been stationed in Tongguan for many days.

However, instead of withdrawing its troops, the Western Liang army continued to gather soldiers and horses.

Moreover, he also united the Qiang Hu people and the leader of Wuhuan, Wuchen Yan.

Although there was a Xianbei leader who had pledged allegiance to Cao Wei, Qibi Neng, who was doing his best to maintain it, it appeared that he had failed.

In this way, the three-way army approached Tongguan.

Even if the tiger and leopard horse combat power is high, it will not be their opponent at all.

Everywhere cannot afford to lose the defenders.

With these 100,000 people alone, they can only defend Tong Pass.

It is now at a precarious point.

If Cao Cao did not return to preside over the overall situation at this time.

I am afraid that these three-way armies will attack and kill all the way to Xudu sooner or later.

At present, everyone in the court is at risk.

The situation is no longer something that Xun Yu can control.

“Hasn’t Minister Cheng said when he will return to Xudu?”

Xia Houyuan asked a little eagerly.

At this moment, Cui Yan said in an icy tone:

“The letter sent by the minister has arrived today.”

“Now the minister has an iron heart to take Jiangdong.”

“This time I sent a person to Xudu to take charge of the north.”

Hearing this, Xiahou Yuanle Jin and the others couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.

Le Jin said doubtfully:

“Who did the minister send?”

Although Lejin only knows how to fight, he does not know how to wield power in the court.

But he also knew it in his heart.

Now the situation in the north, ordinary people really can’t submit.

Even sending Cao Pi here would probably be useless.

Not to mention Cao Zhi.

“This person is today’s Xiao Gongzi, Cao Yi, the eldest son of Zihuan Gongzi.”

When he said this, there was a hint of displeasure in Cui Yan’s tone.

Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin were stunned at first, and then said with shocked faces:

“Seriously?”

“Xiao Gongzi was really sent to Xudu?”

Xun Yu sighed helplessly and said:

“That’s true.”

“But don’t worry, Minister Cheng also sent a hundred thousand troops to help defend Tongguan.”

Xia Houyuan said excitedly:

“If the little prince comes, there is no need for a hundred thousand troops!”

“Xiao Gongzi can come alone!”

Le Jin also seemed to be relieved, and said:

“Since the minister sent the little prince.”

“It seems that the situation in Jiangdong has stabilized, it’s just a matter of time!”

Xun Yu and Cui Yan were directly dumbfounded when they heard what these two said.

What is the situation here?

Originally, they thought that when they heard this news, everyone would be extremely shocked and helpless.

But I never thought that Xiahou Yuan, Le Jin, and the rest of the generals were actually a little excited?

Cui Yan asked puzzled:

“The little prince is only five years old this year, so why is he happy that he has come to take charge of the north?”

“Xiao Gongzi’s mind is still small, why are General Miaocai, General Wen Qian, Ru and others so happy?”

Xia Houyuan waved his hand:

“Why not be happy?”

“Do you know who broke Kong Ming’s strategy in Jiangdong?”

“Then who can break Zhou Yu’s strategy?”

“Who heals the epidemic in the army?”

Hearing these three questions, Cui Yan was a little confused.

He did know these things, but he didn’t know who did it.

“Isn’t it the handiwork of Zhongde and Wen He?”

Xun Yu asked suspiciously.

“It’s Xiao Gongzi!”
