Afterwards, Cheng Yu came in to greet him: "My lord."

Cao Cao said: "Pi'er also knows that rewards and punishments are clear, not bad."

Cheng Yu said: "Second Young Master is intelligent, and he doesn't show his arrogance. He will become a great weapon in the future."

Cao Cao laughed "haha", Cheng Yu took two steps, bowed and said, "But... Second Young Master is young, so it's not surprising that some things are unexpected."

Cao Cao wondered, "Pi'er didn't expect anything?"

Cheng Yu said: "I heard that the emperor thinks that the dishes made by our military cooks are not tasty, so he changed the dishes."

Cao Cao said: "Your Majesty is spoiled, it's normal that he can't eat the crude food in the barracks, at worst, when he leaves Shouchun on the road in the future, just take his favorite cooks with him."

Cheng Yu said: "My lord, it's a trivial matter to bring the cook, but...you can't take the fish, shrimp, seasonal fruits and vegetables, etc. here in Yangzhou!"

Cao Cao smiled and looked out the window.

Spring is here, and everything is new. The flowers are red, the willows are green, and the flowers and trees are so beautiful. There are many more kinds of flowers and trees in the courtyard outside than those in Yanzhou.

Cao Cao still smiled, and after looking around, the corners of his mouth did not drop.

Finally, he said: "That kid is clever, and Pi'er only rewarded him with two taels of money, which is unavoidably stingy, lest people think that my Cao Cao's son is stingy - in this way, his family is still in prison, right? Let him go, let him go out, and his family Together, go wherever you like, and find another one to fill the emperor's vacancy."

Cheng Yu said: "My lord is magnanimous! The child's family must be grateful for my lord's kindness."

Cao Cao waved his hand, Cheng Yu retreated to the door, Cao Cao suddenly said: "Go and tell the cook who prepares the meals, the vegetables bought outside are not tampered with by others, and you should try to use the ones in the house as much as possible. Isn't it easy to order?"

Cheng Yu complied, and Cao Cao put away the smiling face that had hung on for a while.

After Lu Xun got the two slings of money, someone came to tell him that Cao Cao was happy and rewarded him and his family with freedom.

Lu Xun was overjoyed and wanted to leave immediately. Cao Pi said, "You seem to be polite. Why do you break the rules when you are happy?"

Lu Xun was startled and hurriedly knelt down.

Cao Pi said: "You have served the emperor, shouldn't you pay your respects?"

When Lu Xun heard this, he became happy again: "Thank you, Mr. Pi! I will go pay my respects to the emperor right now! Thank you, Mr. Pi!"

Cao Pi nodded, Lu Xun got up, and trotted back to the courtyard where Liu Xie lived.

Liu Xie was still sleeping, so Lu Xun patiently waited for Liu Xie to take a nap, and happily kowtowed three times to Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, Sir Sikong heard that I did a good job, so the Emperor paid more attention to me." Meals, let me and my family be free! I'm here to pay my respects to the emperor."

Liu Xie narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, then asked, "Cao Pi let you out?"

Lu Xun said: "It's not Young Master Pi, it's Lord Sikong."

Lu Xun was especially afraid that Liu Xie would not let him go, so he specifically pronounced the words "Lord Sikong" very clearly.

The strange thing is that Liu Xie looked like he couldn't figure out something on his face, and Lu Xun asked anxiously, "Your Majesty?"

Liu Xie turned his face and said with a smile: "I can't bear to part with you, but since Da Sikong said it, you can go!"

Lu Xun kowtowed again, and Liu Xie took a pendant from his belt—two pieces of jade pendant, Yuhuang and Yuhuan, and handed it over: "Your grandfather has passed away, and you and your younger brother are the only ones who can't make a living outside. Take this away. , you are a smart person, with this you don’t have to worry about making a living.”

Lu Xun hurriedly kowtowed again: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

He picked it up and backed out, ignoring the envious and jealous eyes of the other boys, and went out with the jade to go to the prison to fetch his brother.

After Lu Xun left, Cao Pi came back after an hour, sweating all over, and didn't ask anyone to wait on him. He ran into the bathroom by himself, closed the door and scrubbed.

Liu Xie looked at the lampstand that caused the trouble on the table, motioned the boys to stand still, and tiptoed to the bathroom door, hesitated for a while, and pushed the door in.

The small bean bag is quite solid without the bean skin, and the cloth towel is twisted to reach the place on the back.

After Liu Xie entered, he put his hands in his sleeves, trying to look dignified and dignified, and said, "The doctor doesn't allow you to touch water on your back, and you still wipe it?"

Cao Pi hurriedly stood up: "Your Majesty, why did you come in?"

Liu Xie said arrogantly: "Where am I going, I have to ask you before I can go?"

Cao Pi looked at Liu Xie stupidly, and didn't know how to speak up, so he went over stupidly again.

The finger in Liu Xie's sleeve was scratching - Lu Xun... Cao Pi didn't take it away, right?Such a stay, how could he make his father do things for him.

It's just that it's too coincidental that Lu Xun left in the afternoon because Cao Pi was unhappy only at lunch.

"Ah!"

Cao Pi, who was half naked, sneezed.

Liu Xie said: "Forget it, I just want to say something, don't wet the gauze on Zihuan's back, nothing else."

Turning around and pulling the door, Cao Pi suddenly ran two steps over, grabbed Liu Xie's hand with wet hands, and asked with a very happy face, "Did the emperor come in specially to give orders?"

Liu Xie waved his hand: "Let go, or do you think I came in to watch you take a bath?"

Cao Pi was thrown away, still looking happy, and his dark eyes were shining.

Liu Xie deliberately looked at the top of Cao Pi's head with disdain, and opened the door to go out.

This glance is very useful. In order to grow taller, Cao Pi played chess standing up, ate while standing up, and fell asleep standing up.

As soon as Liu Xie was happy, Lu Xun's matter was left behind.

After a few days, the spies sent by Cao Cao did not come back, and Xun Yu arrived in Shouchun.

When Cao Cao heard that Xun Yu had come and was eating, he ran out with the bowl in his hand, until all the grains of rice in the bowl spilled out, and some of it got on his beard, and the servants who served the meal had to chase after him.

Seeing Xun Yu, Cao Cao laughed so much that his beard shook. He was about to help Xun Yu, who was going to worship, only to find that he still had a job bowl in his hand, and hurriedly handed it to someone else.

He helped Xun Yu up and wanted to speak, but he choked on the food in his mouth, so choked that he couldn't speak a word, and his face turned red from choking.

Cheng Yu hurriedly patted Cao Cao on the back, Cao Ren rushed to pour water and handed it over, Xun Yu also hurriedly stroked Cao Cao's chest, in a hurry, Cao Cao finally swallowed what was in his throat, took a sip of water, and said with a smile: "Hahaha! It's nothing to lose Yangquan, as long as Xun Yu is fine, losing a hundred Yangquan camps is nothing to worry about!"

Xun Yu's eyes turned red, and he bowed down again: "My lord..."

Even the voice choked up.

Cao Cao took Xun Yu's hand and said, "Don't talk for a while. You've suffered so much! Just in time, I'm eating, and you come too. We'll talk after we eat!"

Seeing that Cao Cao's eyes were also a little red, Xun Yu was afraid of making Cao Cao upset, so he nodded quickly and followed Cao Cao into the room.

When the mood calms down, the meal is over.

Xun Yu said: "Lü Bu has taken Yangquan, and the soldiers and horses that Yuan Shu gave Li Dian to guard Yangquan have also been taken by Lv Bu. I think Lv Bu now has no less than 5 people. Although my lord has successfully received the emperor here, Yuan Shao is one step ahead, but we will go to The road back to Xudu in the west was cut off, and I couldn't go through it. When I was in Yangquan, I didn't see Xiahou Dun coming to help. I'm afraid Yuzhou has been lost, but I don't know who did it."

Cheng Yu said, "Could it be that Liu Biao and Lu Bu joined forces?"

Cao Cao shook his head: "Liu Biao? He only dared to do it after living in his house, like Sun Jian, but if Liu Biao went out to beat someone, it would be absolutely impossible!"

Cheng Yu was puzzled: "Who else is there? It can't be Ma Teng from Xiliang, right?"

Xun Yu said, "There is one person!"

Cao Cao nodded, already thinking of it: "Liu Bei!"

"I heard that he left Yuan Shao and went to Jingzhou. Liu Biao even gave him Xinye."

Cao Ren asked from the side: "Xinye? What kind of place is that?"

Xun Yu said: "A small city, much smaller than Yangquan, with a population of less than [-]."

Cao Rendao: "The Xinye is so small, how can Liu Bei get the troops to attack Yuzhou? Xiahou Dun has 8 people!"

Cao Cao spat: "Xiahoudun is smarter than you! I shouldn't have let the two of you retreat!"

Cao Ren was so frightened that he knelt down again.

Xun Yu said: "Cao Ren is right. There are few people in Xinye. If Liu Bei has no soldiers, he will be a good minister. Xiahou Dun is brave but not resourceful. If the opponent uses tricks, Xiahou Dun is by no means an opponent."

Cao Cao nodded: "Don't settle accounts with them for now, we'll talk about it later, do you have a plan to send the emperor back to Xudu?"

Cheng Yu shook his head, worried, and the other generals looked at each other in blank dismay.

Cao Cao looked around, but he didn't get angry, he patted his legs, and looked at Xun Yu with a relaxed expression: "Wen Ruo, I know you have a way, don't hold back."

Xun Yu had an inscrutable look on his face, but when he heard Cao Cao's words, he laughed, "I can't hide it from my lord!"

Cao Cao was not sure at first, what if Xun Yu couldn't do anything?Hearing this sentence, he laughed loudly: "I just said, Xun Wenruo alone is worth a hundred thousand troops!"

Now send a messenger to Qingzhou.

Hearing the news of Yuan Shu's death, Ji Ling and Qiao Rui surrendered Yuan Shao one by one, and fled the other. Zhongli's barrier was finally opened. Yuan Shao led his army to chase for several days, but stopped at a place twenty miles away from Shouchun.

Early this morning, Liu Xie was called up and changed into his court clothes. Cao Cao came to invite him, then boarded the car and left the mansion, stopping outside the east gate of Shouchun.

Cao Cao, who was leaving the city, waited until noon from the moment of Chenshi to invite Yuan Shao.

During the time when Cao Cao went to invite Yuan Shao, Cheng Yu explained several times beside the chariot that although Da Sikong was the first to rescue him, he deserved the first credit, but the first credit cannot be given to Cao Cao, but to Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao met Yuan Shao, and the troops approached the east gate. Cheng Yu ordered his servants to help Liu Xie out of the chariot and stand under the canopy.

Liu Xie was already exhausted, knowing that he would have nothing to do after the play, so he got up and stood up straight.

Next to Cao Cao was a tall, strong and slightly fat man. A hundred paces away, he saw the emperor's guard of honor and the figure of the emperor under the canopy. The man got off his horse and trotted towards Liu Xie.

This is Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao got off his horse, Cao Cao hurriedly rolled off his horse, and the others got off their horses too, and hurriedly followed Yuan Shao.
