In Shouchun, Yangzhou, Yuan Shu received a letter from Cao Cao negotiating a peace. Cao Cao begged Yuan Shu to withdraw his troops. In addition to cutting the three counties of Xuzhou to Yuan Shu, he also gave the emperor as a gift.

After Xu Du was besieged for a month, Yan Liang and Wen Chou finally stopped attacking the city and gathered their troops in the camp north of Xu Du, still eyeing Xu Du.

Li Dian was ordered by Cao Cao to enter Changle Palace by night.

Liu Xie was about to go to bed, and Huang Men had just taken the top half of the crown, when someone outside shouted: "General Li, why did you break into the Forbidden Palace at night!? The emperor is ready to rest! General! General, don't trespass!!!"

The muffled sound of military armor came, and Li Dian took the lead and rushed into the palace with dozens of soldiers, followed by the palace guards who didn't know whether they should take out their weapons.

Seeing Liu Xie, Li Dian showed Cao Cao's token and knelt down: "The last general is ordered by Lord Sikong, please change the court clothes quickly, and the last general will accompany the emperor to Yuzhou to avoid Yuan Jun's edge!"

Liu Xie said, "Yuzhou?"

Li Dian nodded, seeing that Liu Xie was still sitting there, he said anxiously: "Please change your court clothes quickly! The last general has prepared a carriage frame at the gate of the palace, and it happened to leave at night, and the hour was delayed. Yuan Jun came to besiege the city again, But I can't get out!"

After hearing this, Huang Men also said: "The slaves will wait for the emperor to change clothes."

Lao Huangmen waved his hand, the palace guard withdrew, Lao Huangmen coughed, and Li Dian came over in a daze: "The last general also wants to withdraw and wait?"

Old Huangmen said: "Please wait outside the general's gate."

Li Dian said: "Please hurry up, Your Majesty." Then he led the people back out, leaving footprints all over the hall.

Putting on the whole set of clothes, Liu Xie, the general of the Huangmen, sent out to get on the chariot. Li Dian led the way, and the soldiers he brought walked around the periphery. It's like guarding against Liu Xie.

Walking out of the palace by the east gate, he obviously asked Liu Xie to change into the court clothes, but what he prepared was not a six-carriage frame, but an ordinary official private car with two horses.

The Huang Men wanted to follow, but Li Dian didn't have many cars for the servants to ride in. After thinking about it, he asked the two Huang Men to follow Liu Xie into the carriage. All the soldiers mounted their horses, and thousands of people guarded the carriages and ran around the curfew. On the streets of Xudu.

When they came to the south gate and shouted, Cao Ang, who had been patrolling here on the city tower, raised his voice and asked, "Who is going out of the city below!?"

Li Dian had no choice but to get off the horse and upstairs, and said again that he wanted to take Liu Xie to Yuzhou for a while.

Cao Ang frowned, seeing that Cao Cao's badge was there, he had to go down the tower and kneel on the carriage frame, ordered the soldiers to open the door and let him go, and repeatedly told Li Dian to take the trail and pay more attention to safety.

After the city gate was closed again, Cao Ang returned to his resting place. Cao Pi was still asleep, hanging his bones by pulling a tree branch.

They were all in the big camp outside the city. When Yuan Jun came, they all withdrew to the city, but they didn't go back to live in Cao's mansion.

Cao Ang said: "Come down, Pi'er! You are too impatient, you may dislocate it."

Cao Pi said: "It's okay, Doolala, grow up fast!"

Normally Cao Ang would laugh when he saw him like this, but tonight Cao Ang frowned and walked into the house on his own.

Cao Pi let go of his hand and landed, followed him in and asked, "Big brother, what's the matter?"

Cao Ang said: "Li Dian was ordered by his father to enter the palace to pick up the emperor. He said that he would send him to Yuzhou for shelter. The troops had just left the city. Although Yuan Jun was huddled in the camp, if there was a sentry outside and saw traces, Li Dian only has a few thousand people, isn't it dangerous? Should I send some more people?"

Cao Pi changed his expression, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Big Brother! How can you keep the emperor safe with only a few thousand people? Big Brother, hurry up and catch up with the cavalry in the city. The walls of Xu Capital are high and thick, and there is enough food and grass. As long as you can't hold on, Guessing that Yuan Jun will not be able to attack in a short time, big brother can just go, if Li Dian is really only sent to Yuzhou, then it will be fine, if not..."

Cao Ang said: "What?"

Cao Pi shook his head: "Impossible, it's not possible... Big Brother, hurry up, protect the emperor, and don't lose anything."

Cao Ang picked up the Qinglin Sword that had just been put down, and ran out the door without saying a word.

The crown swayed from side to side, colliding with each other, making crisp and endless sounds.

Liu Xie was used to wearing the crown, so he didn't look too embarrassed sitting in the bumpy carriage. He just looked down at the dragon pattern on his knee, not energetic.

The two yellow men did not dare to sit with him, and leaned on the small stools on both sides of the car door.

The road was bumpy, and sometimes the turn was so fast that Liu Xie had no choice but to stretch out his hand to help. At that time, the two yellow gates had to roll into a pile.

I don't know how long it took before the team paused, and Cao Ang said outside: "Your Majesty, I came to escort the car. I heard General Li Dian said that there is no drinking water in the car, so I offer drinking water."

Liu Xie nodded, and Huangmen opened the car door to receive the water bag.

When Cao Ang got up to pass the water, he saw the worried eyes of the little emperor in the car, and he comforted him: "Going so fast has caused the emperor to suffer. You can rest after waiting for the water. I chased you from Xudu, but I didn't see you all the way." Yuan Jun is sentinel, everything on the road is safe."

Liu Xie didn't speak, but set his eyes on his knees again.

Huangmen closed the car door, blocking Cao Ang's sight.

Cao Ang looked around at the dark mountains and plains. It was obviously quiet, but why was his mood unstable?

What did Cao Pi refer to when he didn't say it at that time?

The next morning, Fang rushed to Yingshui.

After Cao Ang chased him, Li Dianjun was in front, and Cao Ang led five thousand horsemen from Xudu City to the rear.

There was a wooden bridge on the Yingshui River. After half of Li Dian's thousands of cavalry passed by, the wooden bridge, which usually only supported the people's cattle and sheep, could not bear the load, and it creaked again and again.

Li Dian was worried, and waited at the bridge on the other side. Seeing that the former army slowed down, Cao Ang caught up.

When the carriage went up, some of the wood used for the bridge piers cracked. Cao Ang said badly, so he got off his horse and ran up the bridge and shouted: "Everyone on the bridge, get off! All get off!!!"

The soldiers who got on the bridge hurriedly retreated from the bridge, but before Cao Ang could get to the carriage, there was a "boom", the pier under the wheels on the left collapsed, the bridge slab was broken, and the carriage suddenly tilted to the left, knocking the carriage on the left. The guard cavalry crashed directly into the rolling river.

The soldier screamed, and his man and horse were swallowed by the white waves in an instant.

Cao Ang yelled: "Stop the car!!!"

The soldiers protecting the frame pulled out their whips and threw them on the shaft of the chariot. The four sides were taut and pulled in time. The chariot was dangerously hanging on the half of the broken bridge.

Li Dian was so frightened that he rolled off his horse and ran up the bridge on foot.

When Cao Ang rushed to the car, he couldn't care less about etiquette. He opened the car door and shouted, "Please get off the car, the emperor, the wooden bridge below can't hold it anymore!"

The two yellow doors were right next to the car door, but they didn't dare to leave the little emperor and get out first, and they all turned around to pull Liu Xie.

But Liu Xie pushed them back: "You are close to the door, get out quickly! Don't push and push, you won't be able to get out!"

How big a door can a two-carriage have?The two of them crowded there, and Liu Xie was in such a outfit that he really couldn't get out when he was in a hurry.

After Cao Ang heard what Liu Xie said, he didn't let the two Huangmen go to plead guilty and so on. He reached in and grabbed them out one by one.

The pier on one side of the bridge below made a frightening sound. When Liu Xie handed Cao Ang his hand, the car body tilted again. No matter how calm Liu Xie pretended to be, he turned pale with fright.

Cao Ang took Liu Xie's hand and pulled it, and the soldier next to him who was pulling the shaft of the chariot with a whip shouted, "Sir, stand still!"

The carriage fell sideways, dragging the two horses pulling it and bumping into the soldiers on the left.

Those soldiers hurriedly drew back their whips, Li Dian arrived and shot at the shaft of the chariot, the shaft broke, and the cart tumbled down——

The jade pendant was knocked crisply, and the clothes were pulled up into the air. Liu Xie was pulled violently by Cao Ang, and hit Cao Ang's arms. Looking back in panic, only Che Yu blinked and disappeared.

The two horses pulling the cart struggled forward, but fortunately Li Dian broke the shaft, they struggled a few times, stepped on some wooden boards, and ran to a safe place.

Cao Ang hugged Liu Xie and "thumped" and stepped back a few steps. He stopped when he was far away from the cut.

"Is the emperor all right?"

Li Dian hurriedly asked, but Cao Ang heard that the wooden bridge was still making noise, so he didn't dare to let Liu Xie go. He lifted his left arm from Liu Xie's knee, walked across the river with his arms in his arms, and stepped on the ground on the bank before putting Liu Xie down.

Both Li Dian and Cao Ang broke out in a cold sweat, seeing that Liu Xie was safe, Fang gasped for breath.

But the wooden bridge was almost cut into two sections, with a gap more than three feet wide in the middle, and the five thousand cavalry led by Cao Ang were still at the other end, and they couldn't get through.

Cao Ang said: "Build the bridge immediately, and finish the bridge before noon!"

But Li Dian said: "The eldest son brought the ones to build the bridge, come here when you are done, we will go to Yuzhou first."

Cao Ang wondered: "Why are you in such a hurry? I'm already far away from Yuan Jun, and I didn't find the sentry when I was in the rear, so don't be so flustered. Moreover, the emperor doesn't have a carriage to ride on."

Li Dian wanted to say something, but saw that Cao Ang ordered people to go to the people's houses nearby to buy a carriage, so he endured it.

The soldiers on Li Dian's side also cut down thick tree trunks from the nearby forest, and made dozens of bags of sand and stones, and both sides repaired the bridge together.

Liu Xie walked on the river beach for a while, and when he walked a little farther, Li Dian hurried over to ask him to go back, and surrounded Liu Xie with a large circle of soldiers.

The two Huangmen were so frightened that they almost broke their nerves. Liu Xie allowed them to rest, but they still didn't dare to sit and stood aside.

Liu Xie was bored. When he looked down, he suddenly saw a small translucent crab crawling through the cracks in the rocks. He immediately became interested, squatted down with his sleeves folded, and picked the rocks with his fingers.

Li Dian and Cao Ang directed the building of the bridge, and looked at the little emperor from time to time to feel relieved.

Suddenly, in a blink of an eye, both of them froze.

The little emperor squatted like a little lump, and had a great time turning over rocks on the river beach, his head was so low that he didn't even care about throwing his crown into the muddy water.

Cao Ang said: "If it's not in the palace, it's in the army. The emperor never tires of playing in ordinary children's places."

Li Dian moved his lips, but still didn't say anything.

There are a lot of small crabs under the rocks. Liu Xie turned over a lot of rocks and saw them crawling everywhere, but he couldn't catch them when he stretched out his hands. Don't look at the small crabs, with eight claws running sideways. Drive it to drill into the mud below.

Liu Xie did not give up and dug out a hole in the mud, but he did not see any escaped crabs. His neck was sore and limp after hanging for a long time. A small number of people also brought donkeys, pots and other things.
