I am an anchor in the Three Kingdoms

"Look at you, now, you can lead the army to fight."

"My father favored me, and my child has nothing to repay." Cao Xiong lowered his head, not daring to look up at Cao Cao.

"After a while, you can go and see your mother." Cao Cao said.

"Yes." Cao Xiong said obediently.

Cao Cao fell silent for a moment.

Cao Xiong hesitated for a moment, but still looked up at Cao Cao.

Cao Cao closed his eyes again, as if he was about to fall asleep.

"Father?" Cao Xiong called Cao Cao.

"You've heard about Xiliang, right?" Cao Cao said again in a hoarse voice.

"My son heard about it. The battle in Xiliang did not go well, with soldiers and generals lost, and the city lost." Cao Xiong said, "Zhuge Liang, who was originally insignificant, seems to be growing again."

"Among my many children, the only ones who can lead the army and fight are you and Zhang'er."

"It's a pity that Zhang'er can only be a general in front of the account at most, not the commander-in-chief of the three armies."

Cao Cao opened his eyes and looked at Cao Xiong, "Go, find Zhuge Liang, defeat him, and leave no one behind!"

"Yes!" Cao Xiong nodded and cupped his hands.

"You go, you go..."

Cao Cao lowered his head again and closed his eyes.

Seemed to be drowsy again.

"This..." Cao Xiong looked at Cao Cao.

Although Cao Cao has a headwind, he is not in such a critical condition, is he?

Cheng Yu behind him slowly walked over.

"My son, get up." Cheng Yu said to Cao Xiong.

"Sir, this is the father?"

"Also invite the son to come out and speak."

Cao Xiong followed Cheng Yu to the outside of the house, and looked at Cheng Yu with a bad expression.

"Father, what happened?"

"Wei Wang himself was not bad, but this spring, he encountered thieves who raided the Wufeng Tower, and later beheaded dozens of ministers by the Zhang River... A few days ago, after the news of Tianshui's loss came back, King Wei's head is off." Cheng Yu said.

"We have invited the imperial doctor, and after prescribing the medicine, we have invited several people who practice it."

"A person who does things?" Cao Xiong was taken aback.

"The mage said that King Wei's hands were heavily stained with blood, and the loyal ministers were beheaded by the Zhang River, so they turned into ghosts to trouble King Wei," Cheng Yu said.

"Can you believe this kind of thing?" Cao Xiong looked at Cheng Yu in disbelief.

"It's better to believe in something than nothing." Cheng Yu said.

"In short, what King Wei is most worried about is the war in Xiliang. I hope that your son will work hard and go out as soon as possible to take back the city that belongs to the big man."

Seeing Cheng Yu's beard and hair turning white, Cao Xiong didn't say much.

"Cao Xiong understands." Cao Xiong said, "don't worry sir, just take care of father."

"Leave the matter of Xiliang to me."

After Cao Xiong finished speaking, he turned around and went down the steps.

Cao Xiong walked down the steps, hesitated for a while, and decided to go see Mrs. Bian.

But to be honest, he really hasn't seen Mrs. Bian for a long time.

Cao Xiong followed the old road all the way to Mrs. Bian's house.

"The prince is back?" All the maidservants and servants were surprised when they saw Cao Xiong.

"Where's mother? I'm going to see her."

"Yes."

A maid came to Cao Xiong, "Your Majesty, please follow me."

Cao Xiong entered the back room, just about to call his mother, but found Mrs. Bian lying flat on the bed.

Mrs. Bian breathed evenly, but she was lying flat on the couch to sleep in broad daylight, which surprised Cao Xiong.

"What's wrong with mother?" Cao Xiong lowered his voice and asked the maid beside him strangely.

"Mrs. Bian is ill."

Chapter 1626 A Strange Disease

"What's wrong with mother?" Cao Xiong frowned and said worriedly.

"We don't know either." The maid shook her head, "Please ask the imperial doctor to come and see."

"What did the imperial doctor say?"

"The imperial doctor didn't notice either. Madam Bian just fell asleep all day like this. She wakes up once or twice a day, eats something, chats for a while, and then gets sleepy again."

Cao Xiong walked to Mrs. Bian's couch, touched her forehead, and shook her hand.

Cao Xiong stayed with Madam Bian by the couch for a while, and also called softly twice, but Madam Bian did not wake up.

Cao Xiong sighed and could only leave.

He still has a lot to do today, so he can only visit his mother later.

"Is the prince leaving?" the maidservant called Cao Xiong softly behind him.

Cao Xiong thought for a moment, then turned his head to look at the maidservant.

"I'm leaving, you take care of your mother, I won't treat you badly."

"When Mrs. Bian wakes up, tell her, have you been here?"

The maid looked at Cao Xiong aggrievedly and asked.

"No need." Cao Xiong told her, "It's best not to tell her, I'm afraid she will worry..."

"Forget it." Cao Xiong walked back to Mrs. Bian, "When mother wakes up, you tell her that Xiong'er has returned to Yecheng and visited her."

"Yes." The maidservants agreed.

Cao Xiong gently kissed Mrs. Bian's forehead, hoping that her illness would recover soon.

in Yecheng.

Dianman has already returned to the school ground where the Xuanjia Army trained, eating meat and drinking wine with Xu Yi.

"You boy, you dare to scold me!" Xu Yi said loudly to Dianman with the smell of alcohol in her mouth.

"I haven't seen you in a few months, your drinking capacity has decreased!" Dianman saw that Xu Yi's face was flushed, and he had only drank so much.

"I practice on the school ground every day, and there is no battle. Who do I go drinking with?" Xu Yi said dissatisfied.

"You and the fourth son Cao Zhi often communicate with each other, and the fourth son didn't invite you to drink some flower wine?" Dianman asked him.

"Come on!" Xu Yi said with a sip of alcohol, "The fourth young master is too talented, I can barely read. I really can't drink with him."

Xu Yi straightened up, stretched out a finger and said, "Last time, a man named Yang Xiu in his house made me drink. Good guy..."

"What's wrong?" Dianman leaned forward to listen.

"They bullied me together, and reciting poems is right. I don't need to recite poems, I can just write lyrics!" Xu Yi pouted.

"You've learned a lot!" Dianman looked at him with wide eyes.

"My lyrics can't compare to their poems!" Xu Yi slapped the table, "In the end, I was the loser and drank all the wine, and they blamed me for drinking all their good wine."

"Hahaha." Dianman covered his stomach and laughed, almost crying.

"Since then, when I went to the fourth son's mansion, I always walked around those literati!"

In the wooden house on the school grounds, there were two people laughing and talking.

Yecheng, the residence of Cao Zhi.

Cao Xiong came to the gate of Cao Zhi's mansion.

"Go and inform Fourth Young Master that Fifth Younger Brother Cao Xiong is coming to see you!" Cao Xiong said to the guard.

"Young Master Xiong is back." The guard saw that it was Cao Xiong, "Young Master Xiong, wait a moment, I will come when I go."

After a while, two people came out of the house.

"Young Master Xiong, please come with me." The housekeeper of Cao Zhi's mansion said to Cao Xiong.

Cao Xiong followed and entered.

At this time, Cao Zhi was reciting poems with Yang Xiu and the others.

Cao Xiong followed the mansion road and came to a bamboo garden in Cao Zhi's mansion.

A group of people didn't see it, Cao Xiong felt their voices reciting poems and the faint smell of wine first.

Chapter 1627 Cao Zhi who loves poetry and drinks

Following the voices of Cao Zhi and his guests, Cao Xiong came to the front of the garden hall, and saw four of Cao Zhi.

"Brother Xiong returned from an expedition, and made another great contribution to the great man!"

Cao Zhi saw Cao Xiong who was turning around from the bamboo road from a distance.

"Fourth brother, long time no see!"

Cao Xiong looked at Cao Zhi on the stage, there were outsiders here, Cao Xiong still gave Cao Zhi a slight salute.

"Brother Xiong, you don't need to be too polite."

Cao Zhi came down from the stage with a wine bottle in his hand, and grabbed Cao Xiong's wrist.

"Come, come, brother Xiong, let me introduce these drinking friends to you!"

Cao Zhi took Cao Xiong's wrist and pulled him onto the stage.

"Master Yang Xiu, you have met." Cao Zhi led him to Yang Xiu.

"Yang Xiu has met the prince!" Yang Xiu held the wine bottle in both hands and toasted Cao Xiong.

The servant also handed Cao Xiong a cup and filled it up.

"I've heard the name for a long time." Cao Xiong also drank the sake in the cup.

As soon as Cao Zhi's footsteps turned, Cao Xiong was pulled to the other side by him.

"These are brothers Ding Yi and Ding Yan." Cao Zhi introduced Cao Xiong.

"I just heard that the son is famous, and today I met him by fate, very lucky, very lucky!"

The two brothers Ding Yi also toasted Cao Xiong with wine bottles.

Cao Xiong looked at the reddish faces of the two, and drank another cup himself.

Under the stage, there is also a piano girl playing the piano for them.

Cao Xiong turned around and took off Cao Zhi's hand holding his wrist.

"Fourth brother, I came to you this time to discuss something important."

"Brother Xiong, what else is more important than reciting poems and drinking wine?"

Cao Zhi was still erratic and said to Cao Xiong.
