Chapter 821: The Gentleman and Emperor Wen

Cao's army was defeated and retreated, and the Central Plains, which Cao Cao had painstakingly managed for nearly ten years, would forever be out of Cao's control and become the land of the Han court represented by pottery merchants.

The taxation and policies of the Central Plains will also be reformed, and the same as Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Hebei and other places, carry out unified policy planning, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and make the people's livelihood rich.

But even if Cao Cao escaped, the potter did not intend to let him go easily.

Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself, and this troubled era has been maintained for many years, and the pace of unification must be accelerated.

The potter also wants to live a peaceful life as soon as possible, after all, it is not so easy to see blood and blood every day.

Creating a great cause is creating a great cause, but it is not a normal life that a person really idealizes.

After Cao's army fled, Xiahou Yuan, Pang De, Wen Chou, Yan Xing, Li Wei and other fierce generals stayed behind, while the pottery merchants sent LΓΌ Bu, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and other fierce generals to pursue, striving to give Cao's army the greatest blow in the case of winning the battle.

The fierce generals from all walks of life led their troops to pursue, and the potters led the rest of the generals to patrol around the captured Cao camp, counting supplies and so on.

The potter walked on the path, observing the camp left by Cao Cao, and couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic in his heart.

More than ten years ago, he and Cao Cao entered the alliance army to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and he had also seen the style of Cao's army at that time, although it was also very powerful, but it was not as neat as it is now, and Cao Cao's camp was not as well-arranged as it is now.

Over the years, his ability has been improving, and on the contrary, Cao Cao's ability has also improved.

Time flies, he is already in his thirties, and Cao Cao is only afraid that he is a person who is fifty, right?

Thinking of this, the potter couldn't help but smile helplessly.

I don't know what the final outcome of him and Cao Cao will be.

If one day, he pursued Cao Cao westward to Guanzhong, defeated Luoyang and Chang'an and captured him, how should he and he face each other? What will he do against him?

Kill him?

The potter looked up at the sky and fell into deep thought.

At this time, I saw Xu Chu pressing a young man to walk in front of the potter from a distance.

"Prime Minister, capture a prisoner of Cao Jun." Xu Chu said to Tao Shang in a humble voice.

The potter turned to look at the young man.

The man was not very old, as if he was fourteen or fifteen years old, and he seemed to be a little familiar with each other between his eyebrows, as if he had seen them somewhere.

But if you think about it, you don't seem to know such a person.

So why does it feel familiar?

The potter squinted carefully at the young man, looked at it seriously for a while, and finally came to his senses.

No wonder!

Does this kid look very similar to his old acquaintance?

It should be his son.

But why did he stay here?

"Who are you?" The potter asked the boy with a smile.

Looking at the handsome and graceful figure in front of him dressed in silver armor, Cao Pi naturally guessed his identity at once.

There is nothing more worrying than falling into his hands.

But Cao Pi is still harboring luck in his heart, hoping to fool the past.

His throat moved, swallowed a mouthful of spit, and said in a low voice: "The villain's name is Bian Er, he is a guard under General Xiahou Yuan's account, he serves General Xiahou Yuan on weekdays, the villain is just a small person, this time the army is defeated and can't escape, please send kindness to the prime minister and spare the villain's life!" ”

When the potter heard this, his smile deepened.

"This name of yours is well-intentioned."

Cao Pi was stunned when he heard this, and his heart was shocked, could he have heard something flawed?

He looked cautiously at the potter, only to see the potter showing a mouthful of white teeth and looking at him with a smile.

"Tell me, how did you know I was the prime minister?"

Ah!

Cao Pi hated to be able to pump his two mouths, he was still young, why was his mouth still so unreliable when he was doing things.

At this time, I heard Tao Shang say: "Your father left you here alone, don't you have any thoughts in your heart?" Cao Ergongzi? ”

When Cao Pi heard this, his heart was cold.

"Do you know who I am?"

The potter smiled and said: "Xun Yu came to serve under me, I naturally know the twists and turns, especially for Cao Ergongzi, frankly speaking, if it weren't for your help, I might not be able to take Xun Yu, let alone Xuchang." ”

Cao Pi's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, and he didn't know whether he was ashamed or angry.

This surnamed Tao relies on his old age, squeezes people with words, and bullies children!

Seeing that Cao Pi was tied with a rope, the potter asked Xu Chu: "After all, this is also the second son of the Cao family, and he is not a beast, why bother tying it?" ”

Xu Chu grinned and smiled: "The prime minister misunderstood, this rope was not tied by a certain family, and when he was found, he was like this." ”

The potter frowned when he heard this, and suddenly understood why Cao Pi was caught by Xu Chu.

It must be because of the death of Cao Zhi who framed him last time, this kid was imprisoned by Cao Cao, but he caught up with Cao Cao's head wind disease, and when the three armies were defeated, no one could take care of him, so it led to the end of being captured alive by himself.

"I heard, you killed your own brother?" The potter lowered his head and squinted his eyes and looked at Cao Pi carefully: "He is not very old, but he is quite vicious." ”

Cao Pi shook his head vigorously and said, "No! I was wronged, I didn't kill my fourth brother, I was framed and framed! ”

"Oh? Is it? The potter smiled: "But you killed your fourth brother, Hou Cheng under my command saw it with his own eyes." ”

"I can confront Hou Cheng and let him stop planting!" Cao Pi was anxious and tried his best to defend himself.

The potter was silent for a while, and suddenly said to Xu Chu: "Untie him." ”

Xu Chu stretched out his hand and drew his sword and cut the rope on Cao Pi's body.

"Whether you tell the truth or a lie, but now you have no way back, your father Cao Cao thinks that you have stabbed your brother, and everyone in the Cao clan knows about this matter, there is no place for you in the Cao clan, I just let you go now, what are you going to do?"

Cao Pi was stunned when he heard this, he stood in place in a daze, not knowing what to do.

The potter didn't care about him, but just led a group of men to explore other places, leaving Cao Pi standing in place in a daze.

Xu Chu looked at him with contempt from the side.

After a while, Cao Pi reacted too strongly, he hurriedly turned around, came to the pottery merchant's side, knelt down and said: "Prime Minister, Pi is willing to surrender to the Prime Minister, willing to return to the imperial court, and serve the imperial court from now on!" ”

The potter turned his head, looked at Cao Pi, and said strangely: "Brother Cao, you have thought about it, you have surrendered to me, although it is attached to the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, but from now on, you will be completely expelled from the door of the Cao family, are you really willing?" ”

Cao Pi said: "Even if I go back now, my family and father can't tolerate me, I'm no longer a member of the Cao family, so why care about anything else?" ”
