Zhou Yu cupped his hands and said, "Please tell me clearly, my lord."

Hua Yu smiled slightly: "Since Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang suddenly came up with this plan, there must be a reason for the marriage between Zhang Fei and Xia Houjuan to promote the alliance between the two parties."

"If Gu's prediction is correct, it must be that Zhang Fei has a special love for Xia Houjuan. This matter is known to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, so they made this plan."

"For one thing, the Liu-Cao Alliance can be established."

"Secondly, it can make Zhang Fei utterly devoted to Liu Bei."

"If Xia Houjuan can be tricked out of Yanzhou, it will be of great help in subduing Zhang Fei in the future."

Zhou Yu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but sincerely admired him: "My lord thinks long-term, Zhou Yu admires it."

Hua Yu said with a smile: "In that case, let's act according to plan."

"Here." Everyone responded together.

Soon, under Zhou Yu's arrangement, Jian Yong recovered from his wound for a few days, and then went to visit Cao Cao again.

"Jian Yong, pay your respects to Duke Cao."

In fact, it has been many days, and Cao Cao has been waiting impatiently, but because he doesn't know where Jian Yong is hiding, it is useless to be anxious.

For the past few days, Cao Cao has been thinking wildly.

What do you mean, could it be that Liu Bei changed his mind?
Or, Jian Yong was taken away by Hua Yu's men?
On Chen Liu's side, Xia Houlian had already sent him a distress letter, and Cao Cao almost couldn't sit still.

At this moment, Jian Yong came to the door, and it can be said that he was very sure about the heat.

Cao Cao pretended to be calm, and said: "In the past few days, I have thought about it carefully, and consulted Juan'er's thoughts, and decided to agree to Zhang Fei's marriage proposal and marry Juan'er into Jiangdong."

Jian Yong cupped his hands and said: "Mr. Cao is wise, so Liu and Cao are relatives of each other, echoing each other from a distance, so why be afraid of Huazi with millions of soldiers."

"Don't worry, Mr. Cao. When Miss Xiahou enters Jiangdong, it will be the day when His Majesty launches his army to march north."

"Our Han army's Northern Expedition will certainly be able to restrain the considerable strength of the Qin army, and the pressure on Yanzhou will naturally weaken."

Cao Cao nodded: "Mr. Liu is so sincere, he helped Yanzhou in a critical moment, which moved Cao even more."

"Cao has another idea, which can make the marriage between the Cao and Liu families more stable and unbreakable."

Jian Yong was taken aback, and asked, "I don't know what Mr. Cao means..."

Cao Cao smiled slightly and said, "I heard that Mr. Liu appointed the female step trainer of the Jiangdong Bu family as queen?"

Jian Yong didn't understand what Cao Cao meant, so he nodded, "Exactly."

"The trainer is only 12 years old this year?"

"Yes, 12 years old."

Cao Cao stroked his beard and smiled and said, "The trainer is only 12 years old, how can he fulfill the duties of a queen and wife?"

"The overall situation in the world is so unstable, doesn't Mr. Liu want to have a successor sooner, so that Jiangdong's great man has a successor?"

"In other words, it will take another two years for Bu Lianshi to become an adult."

"Conceive and give birth, at least one year."

"In three years, there are so many variables. Hasn't Mr. Liu considered it?"

Jian Yong said with a smile: "Mr. Cao, worry too much. My Majesty still has more than a dozen concubines who can help my Majesty."

"Hahaha..." Cao Cao laughed loudly, "With an ordinary and humble status, if he really gave birth to a dragon son for Liu Gong, wouldn't there be a possibility of Xiao Qiang's disaster?"

"Jiangdong is weak, and he is not Hua Yu's opponent. If there is another civil strife, how can he survive?"

At this moment, Jian Yong understood that Cao Cao was dissatisfied with Liu Bei's step-by-step training as a queen.

Frowning, Jian Yong said: "Report to Cao Gong, this is my state affairs, Cao Gong said so, it seems..."

Cao Cao waved his hand with a smile and said: "Xianhe must not misunderstand, Cao Cao has no intention of interfering in your state affairs."

"Cao's meaning is that in order to stabilize the Cao-Liu alliance, Cao deliberately married his beloved daughter Cao Qing to Liu Gong as his wife."

"Cao Zhi's beloved daughter, named Cao Qing, is as beautiful as a flower, knowledgeable and reasonable, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She can be called a virtuous and virtuous daughter."

"Therefore, there is one condition, that is, my daughter must be a queen, and the trainer at that step can be a noble concubine."

"Ah..." Jian Yong couldn't help being taken aback, this was completely beyond Jian Yong's expectation.

Seeing the shock on Jian Yong's face, Cao Cao felt complacent, hey, it would be strange if you weren't surprised.

But Jian Yong soon regained his composure, thinking quickly, I heard that Cao Cao's daughter is indeed beautiful, proficient in talents, and is Cao Cao's heart.

But, how can such a good woman take advantage of Liu Bei, a hypocrite?

If you agree to give her to the lord after Cao Qing leaves Yanzhou, it will not only destroy the Cao Liu alliance, but also make the lord beautiful, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

As soon as Jian Yong's eyes rolled, he immediately made up his mind and sighed deliberately: "Mr. Cao doesn't know something."

"At the beginning, His Majesty the Nabu family was the queen, but it was to appease the hearts of the Jiangdong gentry, and it was not the original intention."

"However, Hua Yu is good at the humble family and despises the gentry. The situation in Jiangdong is getting more and more dangerous. These gentry are naturally afraid."

"If we can get help from Yanzhou, not to mention reducing the Bu family to a noble concubine, even if we are thrown into the cold palace, it is not impossible."

"Therefore, Jian Yong has the courage to agree to this matter for His Majesty now."

These words were almost exactly what Cao Cao thought, and he nodded: "That's very good."

Jian Yong rolled his eyes and said again: "If Mr. Cao is worried, you can wait for a few days until I send someone back to Jiangdong and report the matter to His Majesty the Emperor."

"After getting a clear reply, Mr. Cao will marry a daughter again, is it possible?"

Not to mention that Yanzhou and entering Jiangdong can go smoothly, just say that the detailed work is very smooth. It is absolutely impossible to go back and forth without seven or eight days.

After seven or eight days, Cao Cao married his daughter and sent Cao Qing and Xia Houjuan out of Yanzhou and into Jiangdong.

Continue to count as very smooth, there is no seven or eight days, and there is no way to enter Jiangdong.

It may have been almost a month before Liu Bei saw someone.

Then, Liu Bei raised his troops again, and it took another month before and after.

Cao Cao certainly didn't dare to think about what the Battle of Yanzhou would turn into in two months.

Therefore, what Cao Cao cares most about right now is time.

Sure enough, Cao Cao immediately waved his hands and said, "No need, Cao naturally trusts Xianhe and Xuande."

"Tomorrow, let Qing'er and Juan'er set off to Jiangdong."

In fact, there is another reason why Cao Cao agreed to this matter without waiting for Liu Bei's reply.

Even if Liu Bei is really desperate, Cao Qing will not fall into Hua Yu's hands if he enters Jiangdong.

Cao Cao hated Hua Yu to death, he would rather marry Cao Qing to a beggar than Hua Yu.

Of course, Cao Cao also thought about it, imitating Gongsun Zan, and when he was defeated, he would kill all his wives and daughters, and then set himself on fire.

However, Cao Cao thought hard for a long time, and felt that he still couldn't do it after all. He was not the barbaric character of Gongsun Zan.

Cao Cao was in such a hurry, Jian Yong naturally would not refuse, and immediately cupped his hands and said: "In this case, please ask Cao Gongan to discharge the Yanzhou matter."

Cao Cao nodded: "Qing'er and Juan'er will go on the road separately, and Xianhe will go the other way. The more scattered the targets, the better."
