Unless a miracle happens, he is an outsider, there is no relatives and no reason here, no one intercedes for him, and there is only a dead end.

Just as the messenger was being guarded by the Tiger Army to the camp gate, Guo Jia finally spoke.

"Slow down."

After hearing Guo Jia speak, Cao Cao said to the Tiger Ben Army guards, "Wait a minute. ”

Then, Cao Cao turned his head to look at Guo Jia and asked, "What does Feng Xiao have to say?" ”

Guo Jia said: "My lord, the two armies are fighting, and they have never beheaded them, and besides, they ......."

Guo Jia said, approaching Cao Cao, and whispered in his ear: "If we kill the messenger, Tao Qian will be on guard, we can't attack him unprepared, it's better to ......"

Guo Jia's words became quieter and quieter, and when he said the back, the messenger could no longer hear clearly.

I saw that after Cao Cao listened to Guo Jia's words, his originally cold face gradually showed joy, and in the end, Cao Cao was already smiling and nodding.

Guo Jia and Cao Cao were talking happily, and suddenly found that the messenger was looking at them, so Cao Cao suddenly glared at him with a fierce look, and the messenger was so frightened that he immediately lowered his head and did not dare to look at them again.

After Guo Jia finished speaking, Cao Cao ordered the Tiger Army guards, "Let go of this messenger." ”

When the Tiger Guards received the order, they immediately let go of the hand holding the messenger, and the messenger was no longer standing, and sat down on the ground.

"Sit down to the messenger!"

Cao Cao changed his attitude, from the murderous face just now, to the amiable now, and asked people to take a seat for this messenger to sit on.

The Courier was flattered, for a moment before his life was hanging by a thread, and now, not only had things taken a turn for the worse, but there was a good chance that he would survive.

"The villain doesn't dare!"

The messenger naturally didn't dare to sit down, after all, not long ago, one of his feet had already stepped into the ghost gate, and he saw him lying on the ground, with his head on the ground, not daring to look at Cao Cao.

Before the messenger came here, he had heard that Cao Cao was a moody, murderous demon who did not blink an eye, hundreds of thousands of people in Xuzhou were implicated in the tragic death because of the death of Cao Cao's father, such a cruel and cruel king, naturally everyone was extremely afraid, and no one was willing to send a letter to this tyrannical king

, but unfortunately, in the end, he was chosen as the messenger, and in desperation, this person could only send a letter to Cao Cao, hoping that he could escape by luck.

But after seeing Cao Cao, it didn't take more than half a moment, he ordered to behead himself, and the messenger believed that the rumors were true, this Cao Cao was really murderous, and they had just met not long ago, and the messenger's life was almost gone.

However, when he saw that he was about to be beheaded, a handsome and dashing scribe beside Cao Cao suddenly stopped the execution and said something to Cao Cao, which made this brutal man change his mind and change his mind about killing him.

However, judging by their appearance and the content of their conversations, the Messenger sensed that they had a plan.

But he himself is now just a fish on someone's chopping board, and he may lose his life at any time, so even if he has doubts, he doesn't dare to talk nonsense, he just wants to save his little life and return to Xuzhou City to see his family again.

Cao Cao didn't talk nonsense with him, only heard Cao Cao say to the person next to him: "Take my pen, I want to reply to that Xuande Gong!" ”

Cao Cao's men answered, and then brought paper and pen and ink for Cao Cao.

The messenger kept his head down and didn't dare to look, but he also knew that Cao Cao was writing a letter when he heard the voice, and seemed to be planning to reply to Liu Bei.

After a while, Cao Cao finished writing the letter, and then said to the messenger: "Cao Mou has been offended, please don't be surprised, here is a little heart, it should be Cao Mou to apologize to Your Excellency!" ”

The messenger trembled, thinking that he had misheard, that cruel Cao Cao would actually apologize to a lowly subordinate to himself?

The messenger raised his head slightly, looked cautiously at the opposite side, and saw that two people were walking towards him at this time, and in front of him was the handsome scribe who pleaded with Cao Cao on his behalf, and behind him was a young and handsome young man.

The handsome scribe walked up to him, helped the messenger up, and said with a smile: "It was a misunderstanding just now, my lord felt that the killing karma was too heavy, and he was remorseful, and he was unwilling to let the soldiers on both sides shed blood and sacrifice, so my lord agreed to Xuande Gong's proposal, and the two sides should stop fighting and make peace, and never fight again!" ”

Then the young man behind the scribe stepped up and placed the plate in his hand in front of the messenger.

The messenger saw that the fine silver plate was filled with many jewels of gold and silver, and it was dazzling to shine brightly.

The messenger had lived so long, and he had never seen so much gold, silver, and jewelry, let alone a whole plate, and any of the things of value on this plate were enough for him to eat and wear for the rest of his life, so when he heard that these things were to be given to him, the messenger was so surprised that he couldn't believe it was true.

Seeing that the messenger of Xuzhou was dumbfounded and stunned, Guo Jia said humorously: "Why, do you think these things are not enough?" ”

Guo Jia's words woke up the messenger, and he hurriedly said: "Enough, enough, completely enough, thank you for the reward of Gong Cao!" ”

The messenger said, kowtowing incessantly in thanksgiving.

At this time, Guo Jia took out the letter written by Cao Cao, handed it to the messenger, and said: "Then next, I have to trouble the messenger to hand over this letter to Tao Qiangong, it is a matter of harmony between the two families, and the messenger must reach it!" ”

The messenger deeply felt Guo Jia's life-saving grace, and got so much gold, silver and jewelry, he had long been grateful to Dade, Guo Jia asked him to do something, he naturally nodded again and again, eager to throw his head out.

After Guo Jia handed over the letter written by Cao Cao to the messenger, Cao Cao instructed the guards of the Tiger Ben Army: "Escort the messenger out of the camp, and send a fast horse to the messenger, be sure to protect the messenger to return to the city safely, and then come to report to me!" ”

"Yes!"

The two Tiger Guards replied loudly, and then stretched out their hands and asked the messenger to leave the camp.

The Xuzhou messenger couldn't help but thank him, and then left the Cao army camp with the tiger army guards.

After they left, Xiahoudun asked, "Meng De, just let him go, is it okay?" ”

Cao Cao and Guo Jia glanced at each other, smiling without saying a word.

That night, the Tiger Ben Army escorted the Xuzhou messenger to Xuzhou City, and after seeing Xuzhou City in front of them, the Tiger Ben Army guard stopped and said to the Xuzhou messenger: "The front is Xuzhou City, we can only send it here, the messenger takes care of himself!" ”

The messenger was afraid that they would rebel and bring him back, and at the same time, he was afraid that the two tiger guards would see the fortune and kill him on the way, kill him, and rob him of all the gold, silver and jewels that Cao Cao had given him.
