We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

But it's better to applaud, and you will still get angry if you are angry.

After all, he almost hit them just now.

"Who dares to ride a horse?"

Cao Zhen's eyes almost widened with anger, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he drew his sword directly.

Moreover, the guards behind him were also ready to attack, opening their bows and arrows to aim at the incoming person.

It even alarmed Cao Pi and Cao Ang.

When the people saw the weapons being displayed over there, they became nervous and dispersed.

It didn't take long before there were only a few melon-loving eaters left on the street, and some literati in the buildings on both sides of the street were still there.

"I'm very sorry! I'm sorry for disturbing you, but I don't know why your horse gets into trouble so easily!"

Cao Zhen raised his hand. To be honest, he didn't dare to do anything stupid.

I can't tell who this young man riding a horse is, but his identity is definitely not ordinary, otherwise, Master Xi will not tolerate it.

"Who are you! Did you know that the person sitting in this carriage is our second son! Why don't you apologize quickly!"

Huang Xu's eyes shone brightly and he asked again: "Is this Mr. Cao Pi? I really want to see him. Who are you?"

When Cao Zhen heard this, he understood that this person must be a distinguished person, and even extraordinary. Fortunately, he didn't say anything harsh yet.

"My name is Cao Zhen!"

He cupped his fists and looked at Huang Xu.

"I guess he's from the Cao family too! What brought you to Xuzhou? Did you come to visit Master?"

Huang Xu muttered in his heart, then raised his lips and said, "You are probably a general! Either way, I will give you a chance to take revenge!"

The literati and scholars next to him were quite moved when they heard this.

Mr. Huang Xu and Mr. Huang are going to have sex again!

"What do you mean by this?"

"If you defeat me and knock me off my horse, then I will explain to you and I am also willing to apologize to you!"

Cao Zhen was very angry. He had never encountered such a "roguish naughty man" before. He didn't even give him face or even give him a way out.

However, he is also young and promising, and naturally has a spirit of ambition in his heart.

So he agreed directly: "Okay, come on!"

"Zi Dan."

Cao Pi came out. He was very elegant and looked like an ancient gentleman.

"Don't hurt him!"

"I know this."

Cao Zhen nodded, and then rode forward. He directly used the scabbard of his long sword to fight Huang Xu. Huang Xu did not let the weapon be unsheathed, and attacked in the same way.

As a result, Huang Xu had the upper hand before he even took a dozen breaths. His body was agile and his moves were fast and powerful. Cao Zhen soon found it difficult to sustain.

Cao Ang was a little confused after coming out.

"stop fighting!"

"Ling Xiao! Stop for a moment!"

In fact, Huang Xu didn't have a given name yet, so Xi Yu directly called him Ling Xiao.

In fact, with a bit of teasing, I felt that this kid's heart was as high as the sky.

Huang Xu responded with a playful smile at that time: "How dare you compete with our master, Mr. Xi?"

The elders next to him also agreed with this statement and simply chose the nickname Ling Xiao.

And Huang Xu had no intention of playing with Cao Zhen anymore. His movements suddenly became sharper, and at the same time his strength became a little stronger, and he pushed forward directly.

But Cao Zhen didn't check for a moment, and he couldn't even resist, so he fell to the ground!

Although Cao Zhen was frightened, he still managed to protect his head, but there was also a loud bang!

Everyone in the Cao family was confused

Especially Cao Pi.

Who is this young man?

Cao Zhen can be regarded as a strong warrior, and Cao Ren personally taught him martial arts!

"Ling Xiao! What on earth do you want to do!"

Cao Ang felt a little nervous, but he had no intention of drawing his sword.

It's just that Cao Pi's eyes were not very happy, thinking that he had been hit by him.

Cao Zhen was knocked down, but he was also quite frightened.

Such great strength?

Is this kid a freak?

But even so, his war horse should have some reaction. Why didn't the war horse move at all?

"Absolutely abominable!"

Cao Zhen was angry and drew his sword from its scabbard. The soldiers also pointed their bows and arrows at Huang Xu.

But Huang Xu's expression was quite indifferent, and he even smiled.

Cao Pi's voice was cold: "What do you want to do? Put it down quickly!"

Everyone could only put down their bows and arrows, but their expressions were not very happy.

A scribe in the teahouse next to him said with amusement in his tone: "That Young Master Ling Xiao offended the Second Young Master Cao, maybe he will cause some trouble, right?"

"What's so scary about him! No one in Xiapi City can do anything to him!"

"That's our master's apprentice!"

Their words were not heard by anyone else.

To be honest, the wealthy clans in Xiapi, and even some ordinary people, have a very high sense of belonging to Xi Yu, and it can be said that they truly feel at home.

Moreover, the development here is also quite good, and there are many talents, each with their own abilities.

Among them, the most powerful are the three aristocratic families. The first is the Chen family, a noble family with some inheritance. The head of the family, Chen Deng, has become a highly skilled agricultural official and is envied by everyone.

As for the second big family, it is the so-called Zhuge family, which has now shown its prominence again. In addition to Zhuge Liang, the head of the family, who has obtained Xiyu's Zhongyong, Zhuge Jin and others have also made great achievements.

They have done well in their respective positions, and there are even some young children from the Zhuge family who are studying in schools and can become talents within a few years.

The third big family is the so-called wealthy business family Mi family.

This family is originally a big family, and there is also a marriage between Xi and Yu, so it has a very great reputation.

To be honest, scholars would all talk about Xiyu when chatting in teahouses, but their words were full of respect and admiration, never contempt or contempt.

It can also be seen how prestigious Xi Yu is.

…

Huang Xu dismounted, saluted Cao Ang slightly, and said loudly: "I just wanted to see how good his martial arts was, but I didn't expect it to be nothing more than this!"

Cao Ang also knew that this man was extraordinary in strength and could even rank third in Qinzhou and Xuzhou, and the two in front of him were also veterans.

Huang Xu was even able to defeat his father Huang Zhong.

However, Xi Yu is not willing to be ranked or anything like that. He feels that he is a scholar, and scholars are not interested in this.

If anyone wanted to do this, he would even ask Dian Wei to teach him a lesson.

If someone wants to compete with Xi Yu, he will refuse directly and let Dian Wei deal with him.

"This is considered a member of my family, please don't do anything!"

"I see!"

Huang Xu glanced at Cao Zhen, and then said: "Today is the New Year. My master has prepared a sumptuous banquet and is waiting for you. I came here just to get gifts. You have to prepare before going!"

"I am clear!"

Cao Ang looked at Huang Xu and sighed: "Ling Xiao, I still have to say those two sentences!"

"Don't do this! Let's talk about it later when we have time!"

Huang Xu also knew that Cao Ang was probably going to talk again, so he got on his horse and just blew a whistle to Cao Pi before leaving, as a kind of greeting.

Cao Pi seemed to have returned the salute, but his eyes were a little gloomy.

He hates such unruly guys.

It doesn’t matter if he’s not afraid of his family’s reputation, he’s still so arrogant in front of him!

"Brother! Who is he? Why is he so arrogant?"

Cao Ang smiled and said: "This man's name is Huang Xu, the son of General Huang. He was in poor health a few years ago, and my brother-in-law saved him! He kept him by his side and taught him well."

"Now, apart from his personality and being a bit arrogant, he is actually very good in all aspects. He has even started to lead troops!"

"Is he going to lead the troops?" Cao Zhen's eyes were gloomy: "I'm afraid he has a group of arrogant generals, right?"

"If you come here this time, there will be many people watching you!"

Cao Ang didn't say much: "Also remember to show off the style of my Cao family!"

"That's natural."

After Cao Pi understood this incident, he no longer showed his anger, but restrained his emotions and became calm and calm.

Then everyone mounted their horses and headed to the theater.

To be honest, Xiyu's opera house covers a very large area, with more than sixty rooms.

The most conspicuous among them is the Tongque Tower, which is also where the ladies of Xi Yu are housed.

To be honest, only Xi Yu can go in and out. When he has free time, he will go to other places to rest.

And today is the day of the banquet.

Xi Yu's ladies were in the courtyard at this time, while Xi Yu, Zhuge Liang and others were still playing mahjong, and the generals around them were even thinking about who would win, choosing opportunities to bet.

There were even some dancers performing songs and dances in the front, but no one was sitting in the main seats, only some celebrities chatting here.

Carriage At this time, those young men from aristocratic families were playing hut.

Among them, the most outstanding one is Jia Ji.

His father was Jia Xu, and he also inherited his father's intelligence.

Moreover, he and Huang Xu have a very good relationship. Although the two of them are usually quite law-abiding, I like pigs to eat tigers the most, and they specialize in tricking those bastards from big families.

"I met Mr. Cao today. Did you know..."

Huang Xu started chatting with Jia Ji after entering the door.

"What about that guy?"

"He's not a powerful character, but he's just like you. He's all evil-minded!"

Jia Ji chuckled and asked, "Should we punish him?"

"Of course it's all done! Wait until I give the gift away first!"

"Okay, wait for the meeting to come out, play pot throwing, and get a hundred gold!"

"The only one who loses is you, so prepare your money!"

Huang Xu quickly entered the inner hall.

When Xi Yu saw Huang Xu coming, he smiled again, said hello, and glanced at Zhuge Liang's cards.

"Xu'er, come here!"

"Master!"

"Just call me foster father!" Xi Yu's posture was straight. Although he is quite young now, he has already taken on the identity of an elder.

The main reason is that his "real age" is not twenty-eighty-nine, and he has experienced ups and downs, and his mind is extremely mature.

When Huang Xu came over, he took out a volume of books and said, "This is my gift! Happy New Year!"

"What is this?"

"Xichuan map!" Huang Xu laughed.

What?

Nishikawa!

Everyone present was shocked, and Xi Yu was also quite surprised. This kid is really good at picking out gifts!

You can actually get this thing over!

Huang Zhong's tone was filled with urgency, and he quickly asked: "Is it really the map of Xichuan?"

"That's natural!"

Huang Xu spread it out and said: "As early as two months ago, I heard that someone had gone there, but this person was a Confucian scholar and a very powerful Kanyu scholar, so he could draw The map is out, but I don’t know the specific deployment situation.”

"My adoptive father once said that "the road to Shu is difficult" and other words. I knew about this. When I heard about it, I rushed over and bought this thing myself!"

As papermaking technology developed, Xiyu also introduced some stationery supplies, so the atmosphere of studying and writing books here was very strong.

Therefore, Huang Xu was able to hear about this, and even bought the map back semi-forcedly.

Xi Yu naturally remembered this moment, but after taking a look at it, he almost understood: "What you did is not bad!"

"To be honest, if you want to go there, you can only take some trails, or go to the west and destroy some areas under the control of Han Sui and Zhang Lu first!"

Xiyu's expression became serious and he stopped playing mahjong and came out to analyze the matter.

Zhuge Liang's face collapsed.

"I said lord!"

Cheating again! I finally have some signs of victory!

To be honest, Guo Jia's cards are not bad. If he wins, he can gain dozens of gold!

So if he doesn’t mind the money, then this is you!

He has lost several games in a row today!

Just look forward to getting up this time!

"It doesn't matter. I'm being filial. Let's talk about business first."

Xi Yu looked serious at this time, stroked his beard again and said.

He actually has a beard now, but this beard is not a big beard, it is similar to a ship anchor and looks very stylish.

Jia Xu didn't have much idea. He was a victorious general tonight.

After reading the map, they understood what was probably going on.

If you want to go south, you must first capture Jingzhou.

If you want to go to the north, the land of Xiliang is a must.

But these two places are difficult to chew!

Even Jinzhou is a complicated place.

"Xu'er, you really have your heart this time!"

Xi Yu was also very happy and took out another red envelope from his arms.

The bread here is filled with things similar to gold and silver tickets, which is a lot of money.

Zhao Yun felt a little sour in his heart: "Hey, we are all masters, why am I not treated so well!"

Huang Zhong's expression became even more speechless: "My real father is nothing!"

"I have a gift here!"

Dian Wei laughed out loud: "I have two large jars of aged Huadiao wine. The taste is really good! It can be described as nectar and jade liquor!"

"Tsk tsk!"

Zhao Yun's eyes flashed: "It's already at this point, and you're still hiding this wine?"

"Yes!"

Xi Yu laughed: "You can't have it all to yourself!"

Jia Xu twirled his beard and looked solemnly: "Only a child with a yellow mouth would do such an exclusive thing!"

"You are so unkind!" Guo Jia also shook his head.

Dian Wei's mentality collapsed due to everyone's insults. If he had known this, he would never have said this.

Huang Xu gave the gift in advance, which could be regarded as taking care of his emotions. The result!

Dian Wei simply sighed, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll take it here and there! You guys are so annoying!"

When Dian Wei arrived at the door, he saw two people from the Cao family coming.

Both of them were very polite and nodded in greeting.

"Master!"

Dian Wei looked depressed, Cao Ang seemed to be a good drinker, so he probably wanted to share his wine too!

Cao Pi still doesn't understand why this man is so depressed?

Cao Ang was also a little embarrassed.

But when they came in, they immediately saw Xi Yu and some counselors beside them.

However, Sima Yi's expression became a little embarrassed, and his body even stiffened.

He felt like he was being watched by something.

Feelings of panic and fear came, and my heart was quite confused.

When he looked up, he saw Xi Yu.

Xi Yu was staring at him.

"Master Xi!"

Sima Yi's expression changed, and he quickly bent down to avoid Xi Yu's sight.

When he bent over, he felt the pressure disappear a little.

Xi Yu's eyes are really scary.

Even Sima Yi was surprised.

The Sima family is considered a wealthy family, and his father also left a lot of arrangements.

However, these younger generations are accumulating their own strength, and they do these things behind the scenes. There are not even people from the Sima family to take charge of the army.

If they say they want to dominate the world, it will definitely take a few years.

Now is not the right time.

Sima Yi raised his head, his eyes had calmed down, and there was no abnormality in his eyes.

It was absolutely impossible for Xi Yu to kill him, not even here. After all, he still had several layers of halo around him.

"You are Sima Yi, the most famous among the eight members of the Sima family, right?"

"Master Xi! You are really embarrassed!"

Sima Yi's tone was very humble, not at all arrogant.

"To be honest, you are Pi'er's teacher, and I am Ang'er's teacher. We don't have a superior-subordinate relationship."

"You don't dare to do this! You are a great scholar in this world and an unparalleled genius. Zhongda doesn't dare to do this!"

Sima Yi's face was still humble.

To be honest, this was the first time Xi Yu saw this guy.

Cao Pi came first, apologized quickly, and clarified the previous affairs of the Xiahou family. After Xi Yu forgave him, he brought the gifts he had prepared.

To be honest, they are all rare treasures and even some medical books.

In addition to this are Fang Tian Hua Ji and the famous horse Red Rabbit.

Xi Yu was quite happy. After talking to Cao Pi, he asked him to find a house to live in. He would take him to meet the aristocratic families in the city tomorrow, and then take him to the Academy of Sciences.

Xi Yu also understood why Cao Pi came here.

Cao Ang is now a school teacher and has made great contributions to the education industry in Xuzhou.

Cao Pi came here to see what was going on here.

…

Time passed, and at night, Cao Pi and Cao Zhen lived in a mansion in the inner city.

But they were all confused.

"Zidan, do you feel there is anything different here?"

"Very prosperous..."

Cao Zhen thought of Huang Xu from before.

To be honest, he didn't think Huang Xu was favored by Xi Yu and others.

What struck him as strange the most was that the people loved Huang Xu so much.

"It's really prosperous! I can even feel a kind of peace from it!"

"This is the right word to describe it!"

Cao Pi sighed.

To be honest, if he did not have the identity of the Cao family and was just an ordinary scholar or commoner, he would not want to go back.

No wonder so many people run here!
