Due to the subtle deviation between this parallel world and historical records and the accumulated butterfly effect, although Cao Cao voluntarily withdrew his troops from Chibi, he did not lose in the battle with the Sun Liu coalition forces.

This also led to the fact that even before Cao Cao broke through the pass, Ma Chao, Han Sui and others were still standing aside, Dong Zhao and others seized the opportunity to sing praises and persuade Cao Cao to enter Weigong and receive the gift of Jiuxi.

Cao Cao knew that this was not the best time, so he did not intend to accept it immediately.

But he wasn't completely devoid of ideas about being named Duke.It was precisely because Xun Yu had heard about this incident and had faintly sensed his thoughts, he rushed to him before changing his formal clothes, and tactfully advised him.

No matter how euphemistic admonition is, it is also admonishment.Cao Cao couldn't tell whether the feeling in his heart was anger or disappointment, he just said "I know", and let Xun Yu retreat.

Xun Yu has always been acquainted with little knowledge, and he understood Cao Cao's meaning just by hearing this sentence.He didn't say any more, and left silently, but he was very ill when he returned.

Cao Cao was resentful, and when he heard the news of his illness, he did not visit him in person as usual, but sent someone to send some flashy utensils and a few words of condolences.

As soon as this matter came out, it attracted some thoughtful people to think too much.

Cao Cao knew that the people below had different thoughts, but he didn't take it to heart.As long as they stand with him and don't turn against him in the general direction, they can tolerate any petty thoughts.

He has already stood in this position, only allowed to advance, not allowed to retreat.This has been the case since ancient times, for the success of the king and the defeat of the enemy, in order to survive, all obstacles must be cleared away.

Cao Cao was still in a daze, but he didn't realize that the plate of oranges he had placed on the table had been taken away, leaving only a pile of skins on it.

When he escaped from his complicated thoughts, Zheng Ping had disappeared.

Cao Cao called his attendants to inquire, and learned that Zheng Ping had left.After the attendant answered Cao Cao's question, he saw that Cao Cao had no other orders, so he asked for instructions to leave.

When the attendants retreated outside the door, Cao Cao was not in the mood to deal with official duties, and was going to touch an orange to eat.He was staring blankly, reaching for the small pottery saucer, but what he touched was not round and plump oranges, but a pile of shriveled orange peels.

Cao Cao looked at the fruit plate and saw that it was in a mess, not even a single orange survived.

This plate of oranges had just been served a quarter of an hour ago, and it was easy to know who had harmed them.

"You, Zheng, Ping."

After peeling and eating all the oranges in such a short period of time, not even leaving one for him, is he really afraid of getting sore stomachache?

Zheng Ping, who left the prime minister's mansion, knew that Cao Cao was talking about him at the moment.He put a few peeled oranges wrapped in gauze and silk into the bamboo box on the carriage, and asked the guards to take them back to use Xie Zhu as medicine, and then went to Xun's house by himself.

When I saw Xun Yu, he was wearing a coat and sitting by the couch.The lingering smoke from the Boshan stove covered his gentle face with a layer of ashes.

Before Zheng Ping came, there were already two visitors in the room.These two visitors are also Zheng Ping's acquaintances, they are Xun Yu's nephews--Xun You, who served as the military adviser of the Central Committee, and Guo Jia, the military adviser offering wine.

Seeing Zheng Ping, Guo Jia and the two got up.Guo Jia went straight to Zheng Ping and patted him on the shoulder.

"Long time no see, you are back. Come and sit down."

They are all old friends for many years, and they know each other quite well.Zheng Ping ignored the greetings and found a seat in front of the bed.He took a handful of nuts from Xun You, and asked Xun Yu while nibbling:

"How long have you been sick?"

The words were endless, but the other three people in the room did not show any surprise or doubt.

"It's better to get sick, not easy to get sick."

Xun Yu coughed lightly. Although he was a little out of spirits, he seemed to be in good condition.

Zheng Ping knew that he did have a knot in his heart, but with Xun Yu's courage to single-handedly mediate with the enemy, his mentality was not so fragile.

Heart knot is true, occasional cold is true, illness is false.

He understands Cao Cao's difficulties, but he also has his own persistence.

The blades are facing each other, if you don't want to pierce each other, you can only separate the blades and avoid the sharpness temporarily.

There is no way to dissuade the dispute of ideas. Zheng Ping and others did not discuss this matter any more, only discussing the literature of scholars.

Guo Jia wanted to explain something to Xun Yu, and proposed to write a poem about wine.He took the lead in writing a few witty "primary poems", and wanted to reach out for a glass of wine.Out of the corner of his eye, Zheng Ping touched a emerald green jade pendant. The jade pendant had a unique shape, like a pair of needles. Guo Jia's fingertips trembled, and he subconsciously changed his direction, touching the water bottle prepared by the maid for Xun Yu.

He poured himself a glass of hot water to suppress his shock, as if he wasn't the one who reached out to the jug just now.

Xun You has always been restrained and prudent, so he couldn't help smiling a little more at this time, not to mention Xun Yu on the opposite side, all the worries in his eyebrows and eyes disappeared.

Halfway through the poem, there is no wine to drink.

Guo Jia felt a little bored, and suggested another way to pass the time.Seeing that Xun Yu looked a little tired due to illness, Guo Jia wanted him to have a good rest, but at the same time worried that he would be stuck in old affairs and would not be happy.

After thinking about it, Guo Jia suddenly slapped his palm and threw out a "good idea".

"It's easy to relax with music. If Wen Ruo is worried and intractable, and occasionally feels unwell, it's time to use music to relieve one or two... It's not advisable to worry about being sick. Wen Ruo is a listener today, and falls asleep with the music. Wouldn't it be wonderful? ?”

There is no problem with this statement, but combined with Guo Jia's past nonsense and the unique attributes of a certain "master" on his side, Xun You's brows twitched fiercely, giving rise to a somewhat ominous feeling.

He cut off Guo Jia's unfinished words in a rare way, and said in a leading way: "It should be so. Today I will play a song for you all, and please uncle listen carefully."

Guo Jia did not go downhill according to Xun You's words, let alone stop his original plan.He stopped Xun You from getting up and going to the piano stand, and looked at Zheng Ping with burning eyes:

"Why do you need Gongda to act? Zhengping's songs are impassioned and passionate. They have always had the magical effect of curing diseases and clearing one's senses. In recent years, my lord's headache has gradually eased. It is precisely because I often listen to Zhengping's sonatas that my ears are clear. Also listen to it, keep your body and mind comfortable, and cure your illness with medicine."

Xun Yu: "..."

Although Xun Yu seldom goes out with the army because of his prudence, he has never heard Zheng Ping's "Intimidation" Divine Comedy, but he just didn't have the opportunity to experience it himself, and he didn't close his eyes and listen to it. How could he not know the true power of this song?

Seeing Guo Jia talking nonsense with his eyes open, insisting on pulling him to enjoy the "Divine Comedy" together, Xun Yu was a little funny, but also a little helpless.

"If you let the prime minister know that you arranged him in such a way, I'm afraid he will be so angry that he will call at midnight."

When Cao Cao was mentioned again, Xun Yu's mind was calm.He turned to Zheng Ping, even though he had heard the name of "Divine Comedy" for a long time, he was still curious, intending to know what kind of music it was, which turned so many people's faces.

Under this curiosity, he had no objection to Guo Jia's proposal.Even though it was rare to see Xun You's expression changed slightly and he kept winking at him, Xun You still acquiesced to Guo Jia's proposal and listened attentively.

This is the second time that Zheng Ping has been requested to play music since "Zhou Yu's Request".

Zheng Ping raised his lips and smiled, straightened his clothes, and got up slowly: "The kindness is hard to stop, so Heng will play a song to chat."

Xun You gave Guo Jia a reproachful look, worried that Xun Yu would not be able to stand the "stimulation" because he was sick, so he was ready to watch his words and be ready to cover his uncle's ears at any time.

Three pairs of eyes fixed on Zheng Ping, waiting for him to take out the small panpipe from his sleeve.

However, Zheng Ping did not do what they thought.He put his hand into his sleeve, but not for the pan flute.With his sleeves in his hands, he walked slowly to the piano stand, washed his hands, burned incense, and sat down.

Seeing this series of movements, even Guo Jia, who suggested Zheng Ping to play, couldn't help but startled, and began to doubt whether his proposal was appropriate.

An abnormality is a monster. Zheng Ping is not playing the pan flute but is preparing to play the piano. Could it be that he is planning a killer move to challenge the limits of their ears with even more terrifying music?

Not only Guo Jia felt a trace of solemnity, Xun Yu and Xun You also felt a sense of unprecedented urgency, staring at Zheng Ping's hand, wary of the extraordinary sound that might be heard next.

Get up, pluck the strings.

Lingling Leyin slanted down, and the vigilant three did not hear any weird tunes that were harmful to the health of their ears.

On the contrary, the melodious and smooth melody lays out and winds, like mountains and flowing water, clouds rise and clouds relax; like green shadows lined with shade, winding paths lead to seclusion.

Guo Jia and the others were still worried at first, thinking that Zheng Ping would suddenly change the tune and play "Intimidation" again.But as they listened, they gradually forgot their original thoughts, each focused on listening to the piano music, and sat silently to each other.

Xun Yu's pale face was filled with regret.He closed his eyes, remembering that he and Cao Cao used to be like-minded, witnessing the heart of rectification, but now they parted ways and went in opposite directions. We can share adversity but not wealth...

Regret and confusion only lasted for a second, and were quickly dispelled by the suddenly cheerful melody.

There is always a quiet place in the winding path, it is useless to think too much, and you can't turn back.

Xun Yu opened his eyes, his eyes were clear and transparent.

At the end of the song, admiration appeared on Xun You's face, and Xun You said bluntly: "This song is open-minded. The Zhengping Qin has a high pitch, which is really eye-catching."

Guo Jia has also studied the music theory of gentlemen, and has a certain ability to appreciate music.

The piano sound just now seemed to him to be a rare and good song, but for some reason, his heart always seemed to be stepping on a cloud, very unsteady.

He attributed this to the fact that he had spent the longest time with Zheng Ping, and he had developed an instinct to be vigilant all the time.

Zheng Ping, who heard Xun Yu's praise, smiled without restraint, withdrew his hand from the strings, and took out something from his sleeve.

When Guo Jia saw the familiar pan flute, he had a bad idea, and immediately took out the earplugs that had been prepared a long time ago, and quickly pressed them into his ears.

Uncle and nephew Xun Yu liked the qin, but was paralyzed by the sound of the qin before, and hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter.

When the flute sounded, it was too late for them to take protective measures.

Xun You didn't care about maintaining a peaceful demeanor, so he immediately got up and covered his ears for Xun Yu whose eyes were gradually straightening.

But even so, the sound of the flute still pierced into the ears vaguely, making it unavoidable.

By the time the song was over, Xun You's hands were already faintly numb.

Xun Yu's gaze gradually narrowed. It was the first time he experienced ups and downs in just a quarter of an hour, and he was still in a daze at the moment.

If he had heard Zheng Ping's "Intimidation" from the beginning, he would have been prepared and he would have adjusted quickly, and it would never have happened.But he had just listened to the melodious music a moment ago, and he was deeply moved. While he was still reminiscing about the sound of Lingling, he was caught off guard and was filled with rubbish.

It was like having just eaten a plate of delicious food, seeing the owner serve another plate, and was about to continue to feast, but ended up eating a mouthful of devil's food.Because of the gap between front and back, it is far more painful than eating devil's food directly.

After Zheng Ping put down his flute, Xun Yu remembered the "clear ears and eyesight" he had just praised, and silently replaced the font in his heart.

But he would be wrong.Come to think of it, what Feng Xiao said was not "hearing and eyesight", but "earache and eyesight", right?
