Gao Yi actually did not go to Wu County, he and Cao Cao set off from Hanshui by boat before they reached the Yangtze River, and they got Pei Yuanshao's flying pigeon biography, not only Chen said the situation in Luoyang, but also brought a reliable news, that is, Wang Yun, the assassin of Yuzhou, learned last year that the Ten Standing Servants were going to send assassins to Wu County to assassinate Cai Yong, so he sent people to Wu County in advance to pick up Cai Yong's father and daughter, but did not take back Wang Yun's ruling place in Yuzhou, but secretly sent Wang Yun to a house in Liang County, Henan Province to settle down.

Since last year's Yellow Turban Incident, the Yellow Turban Army attacked and killed the assassins in various places, and Yuzhou was naturally no exception 's evaluation, quickly recruited troops in Yuzhou, calmed down the chaos, blocked the confluence of the Jizhou Yellow Turban and the Jingzhou Yellow Turban, and the credit was no less than that of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, but the ten permanent servants were originally greasy with the Yellow Turban, and naturally could not allow anyone in He Jin's camp to be reused, so he sowed discord and pressed Wang Yun's credit.

However, Wang Yun doesn't care about these people of fame, fortune, honor and disgrace, he continues to do his Yuzhou assassination history, eliminate the Yellow Turban forces in Yuzhou, Huang Shao, He Yi, Zhou Cang, Gong Du have all suffered from Wang Yun, and even participated in the siege of Nanyang Kong Rong, which was originally Wang Yun's engagement, Wang Yun was assigned by He Jin and sent to Yuan Shu, speaking of which Gao Yi also thanked Wang Yun, because Wang Yun is a strange temper, that is, he refused to surrender, otherwise the Yellow Turban Army in Yuzhou would not have been able to come to Gao Yi so soon.

Gao Yi traveled this time, there was no one else to accompany him, only Cao Cao together, after all, Nanyang is busy now, and the generals and strategists have no time to get out, considering that Cao Cao and Cai Yong are old friends, so Gao Yi took Cao Cao away from the construction site of supervising the construction of Wancheng New City, and exchanged this drudgery to the hard-working Zhao Yun to do.

But he didn't expect that Wang Yun did a good thing for him, and let Gao Yi Province run a way, otherwise this time and again, he couldn't do it without two months of hard work, Gao Yi was also a person who didn't want to muddy the waters in the political field, and he even did a good job of visiting the Cai family in Jingzhou, the Kuai family, and several major families in Jiangdong along the way, including collecting those famous generals and strategists in history in Eastern Wu.

On the way to Liang County, Gao Yi also saw Gao Jiajun protecting the people of Jizhou who went to Nanyang one after another, knowing that Pei Yuanshao and Wen Chou had already started to arrange their own matters, and couldn't help but be very happy, Cao Cao saw all this in his eyes, and expressed infinite envy, jealousy and hatred, he felt that he was really inferior to his junior brother now.

"Mingyang, you are now full of talents, the military is very prosperous, and Nanyang is the basis, and there are ten permanent servants to receive money and food for you, and now you are recruiting hundreds of people, it can be said that the scenery is infinite, and there is no other for a while, you are really envious of others!"

In Pei Yuanshao's barracks, Cao Cao said to Gao Yi with emotion.

Gao Yi took the secret report on the case in the camp and looked at it carefully, and said to Cao Cao: "This is the advantage of being a magistrate, in the capital, even if you achieve the position of the third prince and nine secretaries, if Your Majesty does not listen to your advice at all, then what is the use of suggesting that it is better? Senior Brother Meng De has been an official for ten years, this Taoist ideal must be clearer than mine!"

Cao Cao smiled, the past ten years in the mind one by one reappeared, at the age of twenty, in Luoyang as the northern lieutenant, set up a five-color stick, violating the ban will be punished, at that time the Son of Heaven in front of the red man Jian Shuo's uncle with a knife at night, was Cao Cao held, without saying a word, directly killed, Cao Cao and Jian Shuo also formed a bond.

Later, in Dunqiu as a county order, Cao Cao also got rid of the customs, got the love of the people, but also caused the panic of the local wealthy families, they sent countless benefits to Cao Cao, but they were all sternly refused, they didn't know what Cao Cao wanted, so they bought through the ten permanent servants, and strongly recommended Cao Cao to be the Taishou of Dongjun, which seemed to be a promotion, but in fact, he didn't want Cao Cao to touch their fundamental interests.

Cao Cao didn't know about the conspiracy of these people at that time, but the edict of the imperial court had been issued, and he couldn't resist the decree and disrespect, so he rode into Beijing and connected a few twists and turns, asking to get rid of the ten permanent servants, but he didn't expect that those twists and turns could not reach the emperor's hands at all, but were all used by Zhang Rang as firewood for cooking in the kitchen of his mansion.

Cao Cao, who understood that he could not change the status quo by himself, became disheartened, and it happened that Cai Yong was also degraded and exiled because of his words and deeds, that night, Cao Cao thought that Cai Yong was the last time to meet, they were in the post station, drinking heartily, fighting poems and singing, hating that he was born at the wrong time, and could not be born one hundred and fifty years early, like Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor, there was a group of capable people and tiger ministers under his hands, cleaning up the old mountains and rivers, making meritorious contributions, and leaving a name in history.

After that, Cao Cao resigned and returned to his hometown in Qian County, did not ask about the world, built a fine house in the mountains, studied in autumn and summer, hunted in winter and spring, and talked about piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and poetry with his good friends Bao Xin, Xu You, Fu Zhu, Liu Xun, and Le Yin talked about the philosophy of life, and Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan tried martial arts, archery, equestrianism, and instructed his youngest son Cao Ang to write and paint, and he was also very happy.

But even so, the ten permanent servants still refused to let Cao Cao go, and Cao Cao was also blacklisted for the second party disaster, but Xiahou Yuan stepped forward and went to prison for Cao Cao to atone for his crimes, and from that time on, Cao Cao treated Xiahou Yuan as if he were his own brother.

"I understand what Mingyang means, sometimes, a small county magistrate can benefit the people more than the three dukes and the general!" Cao Cao came back to his senses from his memories and saw that Gao Yi had finished reading those secret reports, and was looking up at him, and couldn't help but say aloud.

Gao Yi's expression became serious: "But local officials, may benefit the people of one side, or they may harm the people of the other, what kind of person will I be, and what kind of person will Senior Brother Meng De be?"

Before Cao Cao could answer, Pei Yuanshao came in from outside, saluted Cao Cao first, and then said to Gao Yi: "Lord Qi, the last general has heard about Wang Tingshi's house in Liang County, Cai Gong and his two little daughters are inside, and the last general has quietly sent someone to protect him, does the lord want to meet him?"

Hearing this news, Gao Yi was naturally overjoyed: "See, naturally I want to see, the master has nothing to do, prepare the horse, Senior Brother Mengde, let's go together!"

Cao Cao was also a little excited, and smiled with relief: "It is really a great blessing in my life to be able to meet Bo Jiaogong again!"

Gao Yi instructed Pei Yuanshao: "Be optimistic about that He Jin, don't let anyone approach, he is very valuable now, and our Gao Jiajun will rely on this hostage for food and clothing in the future!"

Pei Yuanshao didn't dare to slack off: "The last general will obey orders!"

At this time, the actual ruling power of Liang County was in the hands of Gao Yi, and the 20,000 guerrilla army had already guarded various key roads and checkpoints, Gao Yi and Cao Cao dressed as civilians, and only brought a few retinues, and according to the route given by Pei Yuanshao, it was easy to find Cai Yong's residence.

Gao Yi looked at it, and saw that this house was ordinary, no different from the ordinary people's homes, an earthen wall was full of cracks, and the paint at the gate was also mottled, if it wasn't for Pei Yuanshao's ability, Gao Yi would have suspected that he had gone to the wrong person.

However, Gao Yi had not yet entered the gate, but there was a sudden murderous aura in front of his head, his instinct flashed, a stone almost pressed against his cheek, and the strong wind blew Gao Yi's face painfully, he couldn't help but be shocked, didn't Pei Yuanshao slap someone's hand to protect Cai Yong? Could it be that these people are blind and don't know that their lord is coming?

Or are these people all killed by some more powerful master?

Cao Cao was also vigilant and said to Gao Yi: "The other party doesn't seem to be an idle person!"

Several entourages also dispersed, ready to fight, they are all the best martial artists under Pei Yuanshao, if Gao Yi injured half a hair here today, even if Pei Yuanshao didn't say anything, they would also commit suicide in shame.

Although Gao Yi was a little depressed in his heart, his current level was not the kung fu of a three-legged cat, not to mention that in front of so many subordinates, especially in front of Cao Cao, if he confessed, it would be too embarrassing, even if the sword mountain and sea of fire in front of him, he would have to face it!

Thinking like this in his heart, Gao Yi turned over and dismounted, clasped his fists and saluted in the direction of the door: "I was introduced by Wang Yun, the assassin of Yuzhou, to meet Mr. Cai Yong, there is no malice, I hope Your Excellency will not be embarrassed!"

"Hmph, there are more people who want to see Mr. every day, how do I know, are you a bad person?"

To Gao Yi's surprise, the person who spoke was actually a woman, who was soft and charming, and Gao Yi knew just by listening to this voice-

Well, it must be a big beauty who is captivating and beautiful!

It must be Cai Yan, the famous talented woman in history, a Gone with the Wind who inherited Cai Yong's talent but lived a miserable life, Gao Yi thought secretly in his mind, but after thinking about it, it was not right, what did Cai Yan do afterwards? And Cai Yan was obviously born in 178, and now he is only seven or eight years old, but listening to the voice of this talking woman, she is at least fifteen or sixteen years old.

At this time, Cao Cao said loudly: "The girl misunderstood, in Xia Cao Cao, she is a friend of Mr. Cai Yong, this is Gao Yi, a senior disciple of Mr. Cai Yong, but the girl refuses to see people, could it be that the enemy sent a fine work, which has already harmed Mr. Cai Yong?"

He said it slowly, but he had a majesty that made people look sideways, and even Gao Yi was surprised by Cao Cao's indifference at the moment.

"Cao Cao?"

With a somewhat surprised tone, a girl in a crimson close-fitting dress pushed the door out, her eyes like cutting water revealed the aura of a fairy, her eyebrows swept lightly, and her jade-like nose fluttered, and when she saw Gao Yi and Cao Cao outside the door, her slender body like a weak willow was slightly stunned, and then she opened her lips lightly, and her tone changed to a different look:

"The little woman's name is Diao Chan, she is the adopted daughter of Lord Wang Yun of Yuzhou Thorn History, and she is here to take care of Mr. Cai Yong's living on the orders of her father, I don't know that the two are Lord Cao Cao and Gao Yi's son, please forgive me!"
