In the early morning of the next day, Liu Xie really issued an edict to Ma Teng, allowing him to take two thousand horses to Liangzhou.

Ma Teng didn't dare to disappoint Liu Xie, so he only spent one day mobilizing troops vigorously, and rushed to Liangzhou on Qingqi the next day.

Liu Xie also wrote the meaning of expelling the Huns and Xianbei on silk, and let the pigeons bring it to Cao Pi.

Ma Teng was familiar with the situation in Liangzhou, and in the next three months, he did as promised and returned to the court to return to his order.

Liu Xie kept his promise, and made Ma Teng the Marquis of Dichi, and served as the governor of Liangzhou.

Lu Bu took only a thousand riders, chased and bit the tens of thousands of people from the two tribes, and drove them westward along Jinwei Mountain, which is later called the Altai Mountains. When Cao Pi's army approached Wusun in the north, Wusun The royal family was frightened to death, surrendered without a fight, and sent envoys to court.

As soon as Wusun fell, Shanshan, Qiuci, Gaochang, Cheshi and other countries sandwiched between the Han Dynasty and Wusun surrendered to the Han Dynasty.

Sure enough, as Cao Pi expected, the great Han's prestige still exists, and it is easy to take it.

Cao Pi went around and "invited" princes and kings from all over the world, and set up the governor's mansion of the Western Regions in Puchanghai, turning the subordinate country into a territory directly under the Han court.

Because of Cao Pi’s many previous crimes, as soon as Cao Pi left the Western Regions and replaced Ma Teng, who is familiar to all ethnic groups, the people of the western countries were very grateful and welcomed Ma Teng like a Bodhisattva—but never dare to call that killing god surnamed Cao again~

Cao Pi, who is secretly called the God of Killing by these foreigners, who can scare disobedient children, is only this year.

After escorting the royal families and noble relatives of various countries, they finally returned to Xudu.

Liu Xie set up a guard of honor and took all the officials to meet him at the west gate of Xudu.

On a bright and prosperous day, there is no second in majesty.

The common people watched with joy, and the dignitaries and relatives were all smiling, but Liu Xie was full of bitterness and forced to smile.

Cao Pi has grown taller. He dismounted a hundred steps away and walked over. His figure became more and more mature. His childishness seemed to have faded away. He was very tall and straight in his armor. The only thing that remained unchanged was his gentle and gentle smile on his face. The warmth of the day hangs in the corners of the eyes and brows, and there is no shadow of tyranny anywhere, and the people on both sides can't stop whispering: foreigners talk nonsense about us Marquis Wuwei!rumor!Absolutely a rumor!

Cao Pi kowtowed three times and performed the full salute, which comforted some worried courtiers and made the king under the canopy so anxious that he almost failed.

In the last bow, a pair of hands with slender phalanges and thin calluses were covered under the arms, and they were grasped effortlessly.

Cao Pi raised his eyes, Liu Xie opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything bright and dignified for a while, so he forced a smile.

The slanting light of the rising sun is reflected in the pupils of the eyes under the crown, clearly refracting the various emotions inside.

Have you ever been hurt?Is it bad?The wind and the sun, the bitter cold in the north, the two endured it together, and finally approached step by step, and met again.

It’s not that we can’t get news from Cao Pi, and Cao Pi will send a letter to Liu Xie if he scratches the surface. bitter?Every time your thoughts go thousands of miles away, what you feel is really the same as what you have endured?

Years of life on horseback, and confrontation with the enemy in a place far away from home, can you really survive with a heartfelt longing?

For three years...

The smell left on the pieces of silk is so shallow, so weak, if you can't even taste it deeply, how can you ride together in your dream?

Even if holding hands and walking together is a desire that becomes more and more earnest day by day, month by month, I can only let go from afar...

"Aiqing took Mengzhou and set up the Changshi Mansion, and her achievements will last forever. She is worthy of being the pillar of my man!"

A simple sentence almost used up all of Liu Xie's strength.

The shoulders are broadened again. Under the scenery, some people are envious, some people are jealous, and who can see the roughened skin and the hands with many scars?

It's not a sword wound, but the mark left by holding the rein tightly for a long time——

Cao Pi, Cao Pi, we are finally getting closer to standing shoulder to shoulder!

Liu Xie couldn't hold it back, tears rolled down his face, and he really wanted to repeat the old saying: don't go out to lead troops, okay?

The sad thing is that reason is used to the high position, and at such a time, they are still soberly aware of what not to say.

Choking his neck, Liu Xie couldn't say anything else about the scene.

You can't say what you want to say, and you don't want to say what you want to say. The scene is frozen in the eyes of the two monarchs and ministers.

The dust kicked up by the horses flew among the fluttering banners, and the chill brought by the first autumn rain permeated the crowd that should have been hot and dry, just because of the sadness that could not be hidden in the eyes of the young emperor who was loved by all people, silently , swaying the ripples.

Cao Pi almost lost his composure, his eyes were red, Zhuge Liang said softly beside him: "Your Majesty, you still want to meet the royal families, don't you..."

Liu Xie raised his sleeve and wiped the water bead, and said with a smile, "I've lost my manners." He called Xun Yu, "Wen Ruo, you go and make arrangements. Tonight, a feast will be prepared in the palace to welcome Zi Huan and the distinguished guests. Let's rest first, let's go to the banquet tonight!"

Xun Yu watched Liu Xie and Cao Pi regain their breath, bowed and said, "Your minister leads the decree."

Cao Cao said he was sick and did not follow Liu Xie to greet him.

The higher Cao Pi climbed, the more Cao Cao had to distance himself from Cao Pi.

It's only a pity that Cao Pi didn't come back for several years, and the old lady must never see her again.

Before Liu Xie boarded the car, he invited Cao Pi to ride with him. Cao Pi didn't dare to overstep, so he rode beside the chariot.

The mouth is full of bitterness, but the heart is overflowing with sweet feelings, and the knots are not enough to describe the mood at this time.

It is no longer the distance that can only be achieved by flying across the mountains and clouds. It is only one or two feet away. There is an indescribable smell in the air, like the first flower blooming on the grassland in early spring, like the gap between the Gobi stones. No matter how much thirst and exhaustion you have experienced before, you can relax physically and mentally for a while, and you can't help but just want to smile.

Before Cao Pi's class teacher, Liu Xie had asked Zhuge Liang to choose a site for Cao Pi to build a mansion.

The current Xudu is several times larger than when Cao Cao first established the imperial court. This time, the mansion built to accommodate the royal families of the Western Regions is fully half the size of Xudu in the past. After raising these people, wait for the Silk Road The cost of reopening is almost negligible.

The recruits recruited in Jingzhou at the beginning were sent to Sili to implement the military camp after returning to Xudu. After three years, the desolate and desolate Sili Captain has become a fertile field for thousands of miles. Fortunately, the military settlements worked quickly, and last year's spring drought did not starve the people.

Opening Mengzhou and setting up the Changshi Mansion, Cao Pi actually conquered the land of two states.

Even Sun Ce could be named Marquis of Wu according to one state. This time, Liu Xie directly granted Cao Pi the title of Marquis of Ning, adding another [-] households in the township, and Cao Pi became the most powerful person in the township at this time.

Originally, after the crowning ceremony, the younger generations should have their own family and have their own house. Cao Cao trained Cao Pi as his successor. Naturally, he did not let Cao Pi go out independently like Cao Xiu and the others. Cao Pi is not in charge of the palace guard now. his own place.

Liu Xie didn't ask Cao Pi to pay for it himself, and rather used the state's money to build a Ninghou Mansion in the expanded inner city of Xudu as a reward. He built a separate palace by himself, in the name of Cao Pi...

Cao Pi was welcomed into the Ninghou mansion, and when he went to the inner mansion to see the decorations, he understood that the real master here was not him, but Liu Xie.

Going around embarrassingly, he found that there was only a school yard that was too small to take care of him. The luxurious and comfortable bathroom was not his habit, and the dining room that was bigger than the main hall was not his habit. Seafood...has nothing to do with him.

Liu Qi is too much!Having done so much from Xuzhou, I'm not afraid to make his younger brother the best among pigs!

There is also a place to cool off the wind in the summer, and the hot spring water in the folding bridge and waterfall...

Those who dare to love Liu Xie and dare not be presumptuous in the palace all point to moving here to enjoy.

Cao Pi thought: Liu Xie probably also said that I am industrious and frugal, and the country is poor, how can I be extravagant and desperate?That was all done by Marquis Ning, it has nothing to do with me!

After thinking about it, foreign ministers can't stay overnight in the palace. Judging from this posture, Liu Xie planned to live in the Hou's mansion every day when he was in Xudu.

Now that the scapegoat has been blamed, it is unreasonable not to enjoy it. Not everyone can have the opportunity to try the top enjoyment of the emperor's family.

Liu Xie was very straightforward. Even the servants in Ninghou's mansion changed to Huangmen and ordered Huangmen to prepare things. Cao Pi put down his body that had been tense for a long time, soaked in the hot spring, and stretched his shoulders and arms for massage.

Seeing the scar on his back shoulder, Huang Men suddenly showed surprise. Although he cleaned it up quickly, Cao Pi saw it and couldn't help wondering: the burn was uneven, and he knew how hideous it was to touch, but Huang Men showed it on his face. but not fear?

"how?"

Huang Men knelt down in fright: "Master Hou! The villain is wrong! Please spare the villain!!"

Cao Pi said: "It's nothing, take the bronze mirror, I want to see it."

Huang Men hurriedly went to get the mirror, wiped off the water vapor and showed it to Cao Pi. Cao Pi turned his head to look, and opened his mouth for a long time, unable to make a sound.

how?

The scars left by the burns were the scariest ones. They were skinny, white and red. Liu Xie got angry and put cinnabar in it. The "petals" were crooked, needless to say how ugly they were.

Last year when we fought against the Huns, we were caught in an ambush. Cao Xiu and his side had only a few hundred people. When they went out to join the reinforcements, their horses were wounded and rolled down the hillside. He killed the opponent with great risk, and gravel was embedded in his shoulder. Because he was not seriously injured, he didn't show it to the military doctor. He just wiped off the gravel himself, and didn't take it seriously.

Looking at it at this time, the layers of old wounds are like the light and shade between the petals, with these old and scattered cinnabar red, it is many times more beautiful than the fashionable tattoos of other generals...

Other people's tattoos and tattoos have clear lines and rigid patterns, but there are no traces of lines on him, as if they were born in nature...

Really speechless!

If it grows on someone who is more delicate and elegant, it can also be said to be romantic, grows on him?

Cao Pi looked at the increasingly sharp-edged appearance and generous shoulders in the mirror, turned his head, and couldn't stand it anymore.

"take away!"

Huang Men hurriedly took the bronze mirror away, and Cao Pi lost his face after that.

A bunch of yellow gates were overwhelmed by the suffocating coercion of the hall, and the simple things could not be done well. Cao Pi was impatient, endured the tyranny in his heart, quit drinking, leaned his head on the edge of the pool, and quietly Fall asleep to the sound of running water.
