One kick to the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 70 Goodbye Cao Cao
Xingyang was defeated by Sun Jian in the first battle. Yuan Shu heard the news and rushed to Xingyang in a hurry.Yuan Shao, his elder brother, was almost on foot with him.

Ordinarily, Yuan Shao was the leader jointly elected by the princes of the coalition army, and he was also Yuan Shu's elder brother. Yuan Shu should go out of the city to meet Yuan Shao, both public and private.But Yuan Shu didn't do that.

When one of his counselors proposed to go out to meet Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu suddenly covered his stomach, yelled for abdominal pain, and hurriedly left a word, asking Ji Ling to wait for him to lead the civil and military officials out of the city, and then he left without seeing gone, gone.

Qin Yi was stunned when he saw Yuan Shu's move, which he didn't know whether it was a feces escape or a sickness escape, and his mouth was so open that he could stuff an egg.Fuck, it turns out that Yuan Shu still has such a funny side, the best of the best, where's his face?

After thinking about it again, it was obvious that Xingyang City was captured by Sun Jian, but Yuan Shu asked Ji Ling to lead the team out of the city to meet Yuan Shao, his insidious intentions were clearly revealed.This is intentionally leaving Sun Jian aside.

Ji Ling walked out of the lobby proudly.Behind him, all civil and military personnel filed out.Sun Jian's face was livid, and he didn't say a word.

Ever since Ji Ling arrived yesterday, Sun Jian has been holding back his anger, and has been arguing with Ji Lingxu, in order not to tear himself apart with Yuan Shu, the master behind Ji Ling.At this moment, what Yuan Shu did just now slapped Sun Jian hard in the face. How could he still keep smiling?

"Father, let's not go out of the city." Sun Ce walked a few steps to catch up with Sun Jian, and said angrily.Although he is young, it doesn't mean he has no eyesight. Yuan Shu's performance is too disrespectful to Sun Jian, he really can't bear it.

"Alas -" Sun Jian sighed, "Yuan Shao is here, and the other princes are probably coming soon. Ce'er, for the sake of the overall situation, please bear with this tone for the time being."

Qin Yi also walked to Sun Jian's side, and said in a low voice, "Brother Wentai, Yuan Shu is not a good lord, so stand on your own as soon as possible!"

After saying this, Qin Yi walked forward.

Sun Ce stared at Qin Yi's back in a daze, scratched his head, and asked Sun Jian blankly: "Father, my master... what does he mean?"

Sun Jian pondered for a while, and said, "Tianyu wants to remind me that Yuan Shao is here in person, and the princes are here, and it is complicated. I don't have to follow Yuan Shu's face and act. I should leave Yuan Shu's command as soon as possible and stand on my own. In addition..."

Having said that, it stops abruptly.

"Go on, father!" Sun Ce urged.

Sun Jian hesitated for a moment, then continued: "Besides, I'm afraid Tian Yu already has the thought of leaving."

After speaking, he stepped forward.Sun Ce was left puzzled.

………………

An hour later, Yuan Shao and Wang Kuang led the army to ten li outside the east gate of Xingyang City.Ji Ling led all the civil and military personnel in Xingyang, who had been waiting here for a long time.

The two groups met, and after exchanging pleasantries, Yuan Shao and Wang Kuang each left a few generals to camp here, and the two of them accompanied their civil and military troops into the city.

When the lord arrives in person, there are naturally many things to do.

Qin Yi followed Sun Jian for two banquets.

The first is a banquet for Yuan Shao and Wang Kuang.All civil and military officials from Xingyang City attended, and Yuan Shu finally met Yuan Shao.The atmosphere of the banquet was gentle and rainy, and everyone imagined the grand event of attacking Luoyang, beheading Dong Zhuo, and reviving the great man.

In the second scene, Yuan Shao held a banquet alone, and only Sun Jian and his generals were invited to the banquet.Qin Yi was also taken to the banquet by Sun Jian.

During the dinner, Yuan Shao praised Sun Jian's achievements in defeating Xu Rong and conquering Xingyang one after another, and also praised Sun Jian's generals.Qin Yi himself was toasted repeatedly by Yuan Shao.

If he hadn't been well aware of Yuan Shao's personal style in history, Qin Yi would have regarded Yuan Shao as a celebrity who was approachable and courteous.But he really knew that Yuan Shao was tolerant on the outside and cautious on the inside, and as narrow-minded as Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shao's win over Sun Jian was not for the purpose of pulling Sun Jian into his camp.But you can come with something practical, there is no official promise, no money and food, just know how to show off and say something nice.

After handling these two banquets, Qin Yi will not show up for other follow-up activities.He pulled Sun Ce, and the two of them either Qin Yi taught Sun Ce the experience of warfare, or Sun Ce taught Qin Yi the skills of horse warfare, but they also enjoyed themselves.

However, Qin Yi's ears were not idle. From Sun Ce, he heard a lot of gossip about Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

According to Sun Ce, on the first night of Yuan Shao's entry into Xingyang, Yuan Shu and him had a big fight over who would live in the main courtyard of the county guard.Yuan Shu yelled at Yuan Shao as a concubine who was not qualified to inherit the fame of the Yuan family; Yuan Shao was furious, and even yelled at Yuan Shu for being uneducated and incompetent, and he was not qualified to be the next head of the Yuan family.

The next day, the two family brothers quarreled again.The reason was that Yuan Shao didn't know who had heard about Yuan Shu's intention to enter Hulao Pass, so he directly canceled Yuan Shu's order to prepare his troops for war in the name of the leader.

As for these gossips, Qin Yi listened to them as soon as he heard them. He was neither interested nor qualified to take care of them. However, he was already worried about the matter of entering the army.

Qin Yi also learned from Sun Ce that the princes stationed in Suanzao and Kong Ni and Zhang Chao stationed in Yingchuan had also set off for Xingyang.Seeing that it was the posture of the princes gathering in Xingyang.

If there are too many dragons, it won’t rain, if there are too many monks, they won’t carry water, if there are too many wives, they won’t cook. The two princes, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, are already in conflict. Hit it!

…………

On the morning of the third day after Yuan Shao and Wang Kuang arrived in Xingyang, Kong Ni and Zhang Chao arrived in Xingyang.This time, Qin Yi didn't bother to follow Sun Jian out of the city to meet him.He found an excuse and hid from Sun Ce directly.

In the afternoon of the same day, Cao Cao and Bao Xin went to Xingyang.

The old acquaintance came, Qin Yi could no longer be lazy.

Following the team out of Xingyang City, Qin Yi met Cao Cao, Bao Xin, Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, Bao Tao and other old acquaintances outside the east gate.

Because there were too many people welcoming Cao Cao and Bao Xin, Qin Yi was a humble official and fell far behind the crowd, so neither Cao Cao nor Bao Xin noticed him.

But Qin Yi went to see Cao Cao, Bao Xin and others.Although in his time, he was only separated from Cao Cao and Bao Xin for six or seven days, but in the real time and space of the end of Han Dynasty, nearly two months have passed since the Battle of Luotuoling.

Qin Yi found out that Cao Cao had obviously lost weight, which must be caused by worry.

It wasn't until Sun Jian led all the generals under his command to greet Cao Cao and others that Cao Cao discovered Qin Yi.

Just after greeting Sun Jian, Cao Cao glanced at the generals behind Sun Jian, and immediately exclaimed, "Tianyu? Really Tianyu! Are you still alive? That's great!"

Although he didn't spend much time with Cao Cao, Qin Yi was greatly moved when he saw Cao Cao's true feelings revealed at this time, without any falsehood.

Taking a few steps forward, passing the crowd, Qin Yi bowed his hands to Cao Cao and saluted: "Mr. Cao, are you here all right?"
