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

Jia Xu was stunned and looked at the other party with a confused expression: "This... this, you... you never taught me this trick!"

Now that he is older, and he spends most of his time on designing courtyards and making various arrangements, he does not have much time to study chess.

Furthermore, he actually prefers playing poker and mahjong to chess.

It's a pity that those games require a large number of people to be interesting, and he usually can't get them together.

"It's not too late now."

Xi Yu smiled slightly, pointed at one of the "cars" and said, "Look, if there is just one cavalry, it will be very difficult to stir up the world. But if two cavalry cooperate with each other, it will be different."

"The most important thing is that one of the cavalry is led by Zilong himself!"

"Oh I got it!"

As soon as he heard Zilong's name, Jia Xu suddenly understood.

"Lord, according to what you said, there are quite a few black knights dispatched. General Zilong...could it be that he also went to the enemy's hinterland?"

"Well, that's it."

Xi Yu nodded, and then the corners of his lips twitched slightly as he thought of something.

Long before Huang Xu led the white cavalry to leave, Zilong had already led the black cavalry to leave.

Unlike the White Cavalry, everyone in the Black Cavalry has absolute freedom and complete actions. In addition, the content, tactics, thinking, etc. they learn from each other are all the same, so they left here in batches as early as half a year ago. , went to Hefei.

Then, they disguised themselves as merchants and entered Yanzhou through the canal, and then to Yingshui. Then they ordered their fellow merchants to transport horses intermittently for a long time to strengthen their war preparations.

After half a year of accumulation, they had already sneaked into the enemy's hinterland and were simply not too well prepared.

This is also the fundamental reason why Xi Yu has full confidence in this operation.

With the cooperation of the black and white cavalry and their joint restraint, the enemy would be hard-pressed to take care of the enemy.

"By the way, the dark chess turning into an open chess that you mentioned before is actually nothing to me. After all, the main purpose of letting them go from Chang'an was to welcome the emperor back!"

Jia Xu's heart suddenly tightened when he heard this. He put down the chess piece in his hand and slowly raised his head and looked out the window.

Looking at the warmth that was different from the room, he said seriously after a long time: "My lord, you are really not suitable to be a strong general!"

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

"With your foresight and foresight, it would be a pity to become a general, so you should just become the king!"

"Not weighed!"

"Why?"

Xi Yu shook his head decisively, but Jia Xu couldn't understand.

Now that the emperor is about to return, since then Qingxu, Jizhou in the east, Yangzhou in the north, almost tens of millions of people in the three states, coupled with many talents, military commanders, excellent policies for running schools in various places, and the flourishing of hundreds of schools of thought that only respect Confucianism Ideological grand occasion······

With such favorable conditions, if he becomes king, he will definitely gain more power and respect in the future.

If possible, it would be justifiable for the whole world to be united, but the other party is not willing to do so.

"I want to compete with Cao Pi to see who can't help but claim the title of king first!"

Xi Yu said with a smile, without any fluctuation in his heart, he was obviously confident.

"This... Okay!"

Jia Xu was stunned by his words.

But looking at the other person's confident face and bright smile, he really didn't know what to say.

Compared with Cao Pi? I am more than ten years younger than you. You are a person in your thirties——

Um...Although he looks like he is the same age as Cao Pi, he can't bully others like that, right?

Jia Xu didn't know that Xi Yu had a system, but what he didn't know even more was that Cao Pi was actually a short-lived man.

Let's not talk about the various attributes and functions of the system and the extent of the transformation and development of Xi Yu's body, but let's talk about Cao Pi and even the Cao family.

I don't know why, but the lives of every Cao family descendant after him didn't last long.

Not only that, but their descendants are becoming weaker than the previous generation in terms of abilities, knowledge, and skills of imperial control... in many aspects.

As time went by, not only Cao Pi couldn't stand it, but the entire Cao family couldn't stand it either!

······

Time flies by, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

That night, without any surprise, Xi Yu received a secret message from Bai Qi, saying that Huang Xu had led Bai Qi to Xiaopei, and that the emperor's chariot was also fully prepared in Xiaopei, and would arrive at Xiapi soon.

According to the itinerary, they should be back in about four or five days.

Therefore, Xi Yu also made some superficial preparations intentionally.

About three or four days later, the messengers brought the news to Xiapi that the emperor was about to arrive.

Xi Yu immediately led all the civil and military officials to the outside of the city, waiting to welcome the emperor.

Just after noon, Huang Xu's figure riding Sa Beifeng slowly appeared in everyone's eyes from the horizon.

From the corner of his eye, Xi Yu could see the joyful expressions of all the civil and military officials. He had already spread the news throughout Xiapi that the emperor was being welcomed back from Chang'an by soldiers and horses.

Everyone was very excited when they knew about it, and now that they have seen it with their own eyes, they are even more overjoyed, extremely excited and looking forward to it, including some clan members.

What's more, as soon as they received the news, they started from the inner city and knelt down along the main street to the outside of the city.

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty is the status symbol of the last emperor of the Han Dynasty. Now that it has arrived in Xuzhou, will Xiapi become the real capital in the future? Become the last piece of pure land of Kuang Fu Han room!

"Look, gentlemen, is that coming?"

"Yes, yes, look at the leader, isn't he Huang Xu?"

"The emperor's chariot is pushing him out! Behind him is the emperor's chariot pushing him out!"

"Ah! Huang Xu has now become a close minister guarding the emperor, which is really amazing!"

"Well, that's right. The scourge of Xiapi turned into a hero of the Han Dynasty in the blink of an eye..."

"Go, go, stop talking nonsense. Didn't he just like to fool around a lot when he was young? How can he be said to be a disaster? This just shows how extraordinary this son is. Look, haven't they all welcomed the emperor back now? Right now? With such a feat, this kid will have endless possibilities in the future!"

"Hey! Master Zeng, look at what you said, as if you weren't the one who scolded Ling Xiao the most at the beginning? We have never said anything wrong about Ling Xiao before!"

The following people who focused their attention on Huang Xu were all teachers who had taught him.

However, according to what they said before, Huang Xu was just a piece of rat shit that ruined their reputation as a teacher, a piece of rotten wood that could not be carved!

But now, this man is only in his twenties, and he has become a general leading thousands of soldiers, reaching a height that they will never reach in their lifetime.

Speaking of which, there are quite a few young generals in their early twenties in Xuzhou. In addition to most of the clan members, there are also a small number of civilians and tenants.

No matter where you are born, if you are selected by Xi Yu to become a general, you must have some real talent and learning.

But if you compare these two hundred young generals with Huang Xu, they are somewhat less interesting.

Huang Zhong, who vaguely heard these words, looked at the tall figure walking out of the wind and snow, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes unconsciously.

Although there was a trace of blood on the child's armor, it was not difficult to see the high-spiritedness on his handsome face.

so good.

If he hadn't risked his life to go to Xuchang to beg his lord, the child would have died long ago.

Where did today's glory come from?

"The humble minister plays Yu to meet the emperor!"

Seeing the distance gradually shrinking, Xi Yu rode off and stopped directly in front of the car, bending deeply to show respect.

This gift is not a small gift for him as the Duke of the country.

Seeing this, Liu Xie panicked and quickly jumped out of the car.

However, because the cart was high and there were no soldiers kneeling on the ground to let him step on it like before, his feet stumbled and he almost fell.

He was simply held by Xi Yu, who had sharp eyes and quick hands.

Liu Xie grabbed the opponent's hand tightly with his backhand. Now there is no one trustworthy around him, only Xiyu is different to him.

Although several years have passed in a flash, he still remembers the old Xuchang chief farmer who was kind, filial, loyal and loving to the people - Xi Yu!

Perhaps from that time on, Liu Xie's impression of the other party solidified.

Of course, this is also related to some of the things Xi Yu did in the past. Among them, the two things that Liu Xie will never forget are undoubtedly two.

This is because Xi Yu ignored his personal safety and the opposition of others and insisted on saving Jizhou and the refugees fleeing from further north.

It was his rescue that gave Cao Cao the reputation he later gained and the people who continued to move southward.

If not for this, I am afraid that the current population of the Han Dynasty would not be as large as it is today!

It is no exaggeration to say that Xi Yu's decision back then indirectly added hundreds of thousands of people to the Han Dynasty. This is a huge merit!

Liu Xie had actually thought about this matter, but unfortunately he had to bow his head under the eaves. Although he was the emperor, he had more than enough intentions but not enough power.

Xi Yu's move can be regarded as fulfilling his dream and helping him in the Han Dynasty.

As for the second item, when Xi Yu finally went to Xuchang together, she went to the palace to visit him. I still remember that he bought many interesting gadgets on the market for herself at that time.

But what impressed him the most was what the other person said quietly to him.

"Sooner or later, I will come to take you home!"

It was this sentence that made Liu Xie insist on living a "captive" life to this day!

Now, Xiyu has done it!

"uncle!"

Liu Xie stood up straight, with a look of panic and anxiety on his face, while his heart felt inexplicably sour and swollen.

Xi Yu put down his arms and stood up slowly, and said calmly: "Emperor, you should know that I am not your uncle, and there is no blood relationship between you and me, but you seem to have always called me that."

What does it mean? Is this not allowed to be called?

Liu Xie's body stiffened, and he couldn't help but think of the words that the still-living old officials told him that he must admit his uncle Xiyu to death!

As long as he can get Xi Yu's approval, he, the emperor, might be able to die a happy death.

If one day, I forget about this matter, then I am not far from death.

At the same time, the Han Dynasty's world has no possibility of existence!

If only one or two people said these words, he might remember them, but they would not be as deep in his bones as they are now.

But the problem is... Zhong Yao, Dong Cheng, Yang Biao and other veterans all knelt on the ground and repeatedly told him not to forget.

"No! Uncle, I have always called you this, you are my biological uncle!"

As Liu Xie said this, he planned to clasp his fists and bow to the other party, but the other party held his shoulders and could not move.

The sour nose, the corners of his eyes with flowers, and the inexplicable sadness and grievance in his heart made him look completely different from an emperor.

"Uncle, you must never...don't let me go!"

At this time, Liu Xie had long forgotten what he claimed to be. Moreover, judging from his current appearance, he did not look like an emperor.

"It's because... you know that you just escaped from the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den again?"

Xi Yu looked at him intently, but the deep voice made the other person's pupils shrink slightly.

"How is this possible? You are my biological uncle, how could you harm me? As for cheating, that is even more nonsense!"

Liu Xie, who has long since grown up, has learned nothing else over the years, but he has mastered the ability to observe words and emotions.

He knew exactly what to say on what occasion, how to praise others without showing emotion, and under what circumstances he should learn to protect himself.

Just like now, he knows how to please Xi Yu, even if he has to put aside his status as the emperor and his majesty.

Of course, these are far less important to him than his life.

Furthermore, since you want to get benefits from the other party, you naturally need to pay a certain price.

There will never be a person in this world who is nice to someone without any reason.

Therefore, he would rather come to Xiapi than Cao Pi.

Just because of Xi Yu's "frank" character towards him.

Of course, this is also related to some uncomfortable encounters in Chang'an.

Xiyu was temporarily satisfied with his words, so he patted the other party's shoulder gently.

From the beginning to the end, he never wanted to show any false enthusiasm towards the other party.

Perhaps because of his own reasons, he is much more indifferent to the world's hierarchy and even the emperor's etiquette concepts than ordinary people. Not to mention any fear, even fear has never appeared.

Through this simple question and answer, Xi Yu basically understood what the other party wanted, as long as he could live.

To put it bluntly, as long as he can preserve the last trace of his dignity as an emperor, the people of the world can live and work in peace and contentment, and the Central Plains can be worry-free without changing the name of the country.

These things may be difficult for others, and they may even be unwilling to do them, but they are not difficult for Xi Yu. After all, he is already doing many things.

"Your Majesty, you have been tired from traveling all the way. Please go back and rest for a while. Although the palace is still under construction, it has everything it needs. I have made arrangements for the maids and chamberlains, so you don't have to worry."

"Also, I will order someone to establish a new Imperial College near the palace. You can get to know some young people in your spare time. If you have a good match, you can invite them to study at the Imperial College together."

"In addition, you have to learn a lot of things, because Qingxu and other places are different from other places. Whether it is economy or government affairs, after years of stable and prosperous development, they are now prosperous."

"Even grain has been piled up in the granaries. I predict that even if next year is a disaster year and grain production is greatly reduced, the people in these two places can live well just relying on the food in the granaries."

"It's just that apart from this, our reserves in other places are not enough, and we still need to work hard. As for the mature business of domestic sales to overseas sales, I am afraid that you are still confused, so I must study it carefully first. two!"

"Okay, uncle will arrange it!"

After hearing what the other party said, Liu Xie really didn't understand it very well. Maybe it was because he had stayed in the palace for too long. He didn't know how many years he had not heard these words.

Suddenly he felt a little dizzy and a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he didn't dare to neglect Xi Yu's arrangements.

Putting aside the other party's identity for the time being, I couldn't understand just these words, but I had an unknown feeling. Hearing them made him deafened and excited, and his blood boiled.

Although he didn't know why, he just felt that the world of Han Dynasty would become better and better and stronger in the future.

In fact, even a brainless person can judge whether these things are good or bad.

After all, everyone knows what kind of existence Qingxu and Xu are in the world now.

Just two states can gain a foothold in the entire Central Plains, and become richer, stronger, and more prosperous year by year, which is enough to explain everything.

Coupled with some entanglements and entanglements between Hubaoqi and Black and White Cavalry, Liu Xie is increasingly looking forward to the future life.

After all, the title of Tiger and Leopard Rider is not vegetarian.

Although I have been in the palace these years and don't know much about the war between the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Black and White Cavalry, but to be able to defeat Cao Wei's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry over and over again, the Black and White Cavalry must be extraordinary.

On the way to Xiapi this time, he got to know Bai Qi's bravery.

It was precisely because of this that he understood more deeply what a nightmare Xi Yu was to Cao Wei.

Liu Xie felt excited when he thought about being able to recognize such a person as his uncle.

Although the people who serve him now are still other people's spies, and even the palace's defense is arranged by others, he lived his life like this in the past, so naturally there is nothing to worry about.

Besides, others also have to be separated. At least when he was in Xuchang, Cao Pi never dared to let himself go in and out freely, let alone contact others.

On the contrary, Xi Yu now not only allowed him to make friends with others, but also arranged his classes. Even the restrictions on entering and exiting the palace were much less restrictive than before.

With so many improvements, what else could he be dissatisfied with?

"Please rest assured, uncle, I will definitely study hard!"

Xi Yu nodded and said no more. The crowd supported the two of them and walked towards the city together...

In the next half month, the newly arrived emperor Liu Xie and the people of Xuzhou truly realized how wealthy the city they lived in was -

wrong!

It should be said how rich Xi Yu is!

Now that Xuzhou New City has begun full-scale construction, all kinds of building materials used to build cities and palaces are available as if they are free of charge.
