The book is picked up again.

Three days later.

"Brother Xingxian, there are many risks here, please take care." Cao Cao looked at Li Zhi, who was already ready to go, and said with concern on his face.

"It's dangerous!" Hearing this, Li Zhiyan nodded with a serious face, and said, "Or... Don't go down there, right? ”

"Ahem......" After Cao Cao heard Li Zhi's words, he coughed dryly twice.

Then, he immediately changed the topic, "Okay, it's not early, let's hurry up and get on the road." ”

"On the road......" Although Li Zhi knew that Cao Cao didn't mean anything else, how could he hear this so awkwardly?

Cao Cao's words made people feel that Li Zhi's trip was not to fight against Zhang Yan, but to send him to death!

However, the arrow had to be sent on the string, and Li Zhi was ready now, how could he regret it, so after he glanced at Cao Cao, he got into his carriage.

That's right, it's the carriage!

If it was in other seasons, then Li Zhi would still be willing to ride a horse, but now......

This ghost weather is so cold, won't riding a horse freeze to death?

Therefore, Li Zhi once again picked up his identity as a strategist and sat in the carriage with peace of mind.

After Li Zhi got into the carriage, Cao Cao looked at the carriage in a daze for a while.

Then, he turned around and instructed Xiahou Dun, who was standing beside him, "Yuan Rang, you remember, you must protect the safety of the virtuous brother of Xingzhi!"

Even if this trip doesn't go well and you can't achieve your goal, you must ensure that the virtuous brother returns safely, do you hear?! ”

Xiahou Dun, who knew how important Li Zhi was to Cao Cao, after hearing Cao Cao's words, he hugged his fists and saluted, and assured with a solemn face: "Please rest assured, if there is still a breath left in his subordinates, he will never let anyone get close to Mr. Xingzhi!" ”

Although Xiahou Dun also knew that Li Zhi's skills were better than him, Xiahou Dun still regarded Li Zhi as a powerless strategist.

Because he knew that Li Zhi needed to do a lot of thinking on this trip, and he would definitely be stunned at times.

If someone tried to assassinate Li Zhi, it would be easy to succeed!

Therefore, if there is no one to escort him, Li Zhi is afraid that the boat will capsize in the gutter!

And it was precisely because he understood this truth that Cao Cao sent Xiahou Dun to Li Zhi.

Of course, Cao Cao originally wanted to send Xiahou Yuan, because he felt that Xiahou Yuan's heart was more detailed.

And the reason why he changed his mind was because this was Li Zhi's own request.

Although Li Zhi believed that Cao Cao did not

He will be suspicious, but there are some things he still needs to prepare for in advance.

That's why he chose Xiahou Dun, Cao Cao's brother, as his protector.

He just wanted to use this move to show Cao Cao that he had no ambitions.

Cao Cao also understood Li Zhi's thoughts, so he pushed the boat down the river and agreed with Xiahou Dun to protect Li Zhi.

This does not mean that Cao Cao does not believe in Li Zhi, he does this for the sake of Li Zhi's heart,

This is equivalent to telling Li Zhi, "Brother Wei knows what you think, and Brother Wei will no longer doubt you after sending Xiahou Dun to look at you." ”

In fact, Li Zhi did this, Cao Cao was quite happy, because Li Zhi's practice was a minister's self-preservation method in the face of the monarch, and it was also the way of the minister.

In other words, Li Zhi now regarded Cao Cao as a monarch, how could this make him unhappy?

"That's it! How long will you have to delay? Let's go, go early and come back early! After waiting in the carriage for a long time, Li Zhi didn't see Xiahou Dun coming, so he yelled impatiently.

After hearing Li Zhi's roar, Cao Cao smiled bitterly and nodded at Xiahou Dun, "Go ahead, you must ensure his safety." ”

"That being the case, the subordinates are enough to retreat, please take care of the lord." After finishing speaking, Xiahou Dun turned over his horse and walked towards the army in front of him.

After coming to the front of the army, Xiahoudun waved the big knife in his hand, "Let's go!" ”

"Drive!" After shouting, Xiahou Dun took the lead and walked forward.

"Gu Lulu ......" Yang Ying, who drove the carriage for Li Zhi, saw this. I immediately followed.

At this time, Li Zhi was surrounded by hundreds of cavalry, and it was Xiahou Dun who led the way, while Yang Ying drove the carriage for him.

At this time, these cavalrymen were very interesting, because it was winter, so they were wrapped in more than ten layers of animal skins, and they looked very bloated, like big fat people.

Not only that, but the horses under them were also wrapped in several layers of animal skins.

After all, the weather is too cold now, and if the horses freeze and break, then they won't be able to leave.

If someone used a bow and arrow against these cavalrymen now, he would be dumbfounded.

Because, the several layers of hard animal skins on these cavalry alone are more defensive than ordinary steel armor, and ordinary arrows really can't shoot through them!

Inside the carriage.

"Zheng'er, why do you think my father insists on asking Xiahou Dun to wait with me?"

That's right, Li Zhi also has Li Zheng in his carriage.

Li Zhizai

When he knew that he was going to Yanzhou, he immediately took Li Zheng with him.

Because Li Zheng is his eldest son, he will inevitably inherit his inheritance in the future, so he wants to take this opportunity to teach Li Zheng well.

After Li Zheng heard his father's words, he frowned and thought for a while before he replied, "Father is doing this to avoid suspicion? ”

"Avoiding suspicion?" After Li Zhi heard Li Zheng's words, he frowned and said, "Although the meaning is correct, this word is not accurate.

As a father, you must not only avoid suspicion, but also convey a message to your Uncle Cao. ”

"Information? What's the information? After Li Zheng heard Li Zhi's words, he asked puzzled.

"Huh......" After a long exhale, Li Zhi said, "My father wants to tell him that my father has regarded him as an emperor." ”

"......" Li Zheng heard this, pursed his lips and hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't help it, and asked: "Father, the child really can't understand, why are you doing this?"

Supposedly, with your relationship with Uncle Cao, you don't need to use such a small means to appease Uncle Cao at all, right?

The child believes that Uncle Cao will not suspect you, so why are you so cautious? ”

This is exactly what Li Zheng has always questioned.

In his opinion, as far as the relationship between Cao Cao and Li Zhi is almost able to wear a pair of pants, even if Li Zhi makes any more excessive moves, Cao Cao will not doubt him.

In that case, why is Li Zhi so cautious?

"Zheng'er......" After Li Zhi touched Li Zheng's head, he said meaningfully: "You must remember that your Uncle Cao and the future emperor are not alone!"

You can treat your Uncle Cao as your own person, and you can tell him anything.

But ......"

He stared at his son earnestly and admonished, "But you can't treat the future emperor as your Uncle Cao!" ”

"Uh......" After Li Zheng heard Li Zhi's series of tongue-twisting words, he thought for a long time before he sorted out his clue and asked, "What does my father mean... The current Uncle Cao is indeed credible, but after Uncle Cao becomes the emperor, he will not be credible? ”

"That's right" Li Zhi saw that his son finally understood, nodded with relief, and said: "If it is too presumptuous to be a father, the current Brother Meng De will indeed not suspect being a father."

But what about the future?

When he becomes the emperor and recalls this, will he suspect that he is his father?

Although it is unlikely, the father has to guard against it! ”

"I see, the child remembers, and he must be cautious in the future."
