Section 145: Wang Fen's scheme

Guan Yan gasped, isn't this expedition going to Jizhou? If Wang Fen suddenly turns against the water, then he will have to face the two enemies of Zhang Yan and Wang Fen, and at that time, the word "death without a place to be buried" may have to describe himself.

Guan Yan held up the letter and shook it in front of Cao Cao, and hurriedly said: "Meng De, you and I will quickly go to the palace to meet the saint and report this matter to the emperor!" ”

As he spoke, Guan Yan took Cao Cao's arm and was about to go to the palace.

Cao Cao pulled Guan Yan's hand back, frowned and said, "Wende, don't!" ”

Guan Yan turned around and wondered: "Why not?" ”

"The Han Dynasty decided that if this matter is reported to the Holy Lord, I am afraid that Jizhou will be chaotic and the world will be chaotic! At that time, not only will Zhang Yan, the thief in Jizhou, be even more unscrupulous, but I am afraid that the Hu people in the north will take advantage of the chaos and drive straight down and disturb the hinterland of our Central Plains! ”

Guan Yan patted Cao Cao on the shoulder and smiled bitterly: "Does Meng De know that I went on this expedition to exterminate Zhang Yan in Jizhou?" ”

"Some-and-so!"

Looking at Cao Cao's unhurried appearance, Guan Yan hurriedly said: "If Wang Fen turns against the water and colludes with Zhang Yan, then I will definitely die if I go!" Does Meng De want to put me to death? ”

Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "Wende is not in a hurry, I mean to stabilize Wang Fen first, and when Zhang Yan is calm, it is not too late to make plans!" ”

Saying that, Cao Cao took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Guan Yan: "This is the letter I am going to return to Wang Fen, Wende, take a look." ”

Guan Yan glanced at Cao Cao, and Zhan Xin read it.

"My brother Wenzu:

The abolition of the establishment is ominous in the world! Balance success or failure, calculate the severity, and the one who succeeds, only Yiyin and Huo Guangye!

Yi Yin, with the sincerity of the most loyal heart, also occupies the position of the prime minister, ranking above the hundred officials, and is a matter of abolition.

Huo Guangzhi, entrusted by the first emperor to the country, is also a royal family relative, with the power of the queen mother's government, and the general trend of the concentricity of the ministers outside, and the succession of the king of Changyi is still shallow, there are no noble ministers inside, and there are no concentric officials outside, so Huo Guang destroys the withering and decaying, and quickly abolishes the establishment.

You only saw the ease of success of the ancients, but did not understand the difficulties of the present. The princes should think quietly: What is the difference between you and the 'Rebellion of the Seven Kings'?

This is a dangerous thing, I hope my brother will think twice, don't act recklessly!

Brother Mengde, worship! ”

After Guan Yan finished reading it, he looked at Cao Cao with a solemn face and said, "Meng De is sure that Wang Fen can temporarily calm down the intention of rebellion when he sees this letter?" ”

Cao Cao smiled confidently: "Wang Wenzu is sparse but not martial, but Zhiyuan is talentless. If he sees this letter, he will not dare to rebel again in three months! I came to you to tell you to come back quickly, and I am afraid of change! ”

Looking at Cao Cao's confident and slow appearance, Guan Yan remembered that this person was Cao Cao who was "unpredictable and slightly unworldly"! Such a character said that it was okay, what else should I worry about?

Relieved in his heart, Guan Yan instantly relaxed: "That is the case, according to what Meng De said!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, patted Guan Yan on the shoulder and said, "Wende will have a good journey tomorrow!" ”

Looking at Cao Cao's sincere appearance, Guan Yan was a little moved in his heart, is this still Cao Cao, who was called "traitor in troubled times" by later generations? Is it still the Cao Cao who "would rather me bear the people of the world than the people of the world bear me"?

At least not yet, the current Cao Cao can be said to be Guan Yan's best friend, who has been in trouble together, drunk together, and beaten people together......

Now afraid that Guan Yan will be in trouble, Cao Cao deliberately searched all over Luoyang City at night, just to remind Guan Yan that this rare friendship really moved Guan Yan.

Guan Yan nodded, stretched out his right hand and said in a deep voice: "Take care, Meng De!" ”

"Take care!"

The two of them clasped their hands together and held them tightly.

The next morning, the rising sun casts its first rays of sunlight on a tiger-faced iron helmet. Under the iron helmet, a pair of squinting eyes were looking at the mountains not far ahead.

Guan Yan is on the march!

Behind Guan Yan, the three thousand tiger Benlang walked forward in an orderly manner. From time to time, there was the sound of the strong wind tearing the flag and the neighing of the war horse, all of which Guan Yan's ears were a little accustomed to.

Chen Deng, Xi Zhicai, Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Pang De, Zang Ba, Zhou Cang and Ji Ling urged Ma to follow behind Guan Yan. Ma Chao was the youngest, and his heart was full of excitement, and from time to time he urged the horse to take a few steps forward and stay close behind Guan Yan.

But Guan Yan sat down as a treasure horse from the Western Regions sent by Cao Cao, and he was a horse king in any horse herd; And Ma Chao just rode an ordinary yellow Puma, whenever Ma Chao urged the horse to approach, Guan Yan would snort heavily when he sat down, as if he was giving a piece of advice to the horses behind: Don't get too close to me!

Ma Teng is a general, although Guan Yan values him very much, but Ma Teng does not dare to be too presumptuous. I saw Ma Chao stumbling behind Guan Yan's buttocks, whistling and shouting, making a lot of noise. Ma Teng frowned and shouted: "Meng Qi, Hugh is presumptuous!" Can't get it yet? ”

Ma Chao is a fierce general, but after all, he is still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child, as soon as he heard Ma Teng's words, Ma Chao muttered and replied, then drooped his head and prepared to return to Ma Teng's side.

Guan Yan, who twisted his head, saw everything in his eyes, and smiled disapprenously: "Meng Qi, come to me!" ”

Ma Chao was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Ma Teng and asked for permission.

Ma Teng smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "Go, go, go!" ”

"Drive!" Ma Chao waved his horsewhip heroically and came to Guan Yan's side.

Guan Yan looked at the beloved general beside him with a smile, and began to talk slowly, the two of them sometimes whispered, sometimes laughed, and were very happy.

The army had already left Luoyang for seventy miles, and a vast plain appeared in front of them. Ma Chao closed his eyes and took a long breath: "Lord, this place is really like my hometown Fufeng." I remember when I was a child, I liked to gallop in this kind of place, it was called a pleasant! ”

Guan Yan's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Meng Qi, this place is still far from Jizhou, you can run on your horse!" ”

Ma Chao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you, lord! ”

As he spoke, Ma Chao shouted loudly, waved the whip back in his hand, and galloped away.

Behind him, Ma Teng saw Ma Chao suddenly galloping wildly, hurriedly stepped forward to Guan Yan's side, and said worriedly: "Lord, ...... child"

Guan Yan interrupted Ma Teng with a wave of his hand: "Shoucheng, you see how superb Meng Qi's riding skills are!" ”

At this time, Ma Chao in the distance played a trick: the horse was galloping, Ma Chao suddenly turned sideways, and it was vaguely visible that Ma Chao's whole person was under the horse's belly! Ma Chao struggled to hold the horse's back with only his hands and legs, so that he would not fall under the bumps. After galloping for a while, Ma Chao flipped onto the horse from the other side as if by magic.

Guan Yan couldn't help but shout loudly: "Good riding skills!" ”

A trace of pride flashed on Ma Teng's face: "Meng Qi grew up on horseback, it is not surprising that he has this riding skill, which makes the lord smile!" ”

Guan Yan's eyes never left Ma Chao's galloping figure, just nodded, and said meaningfully: "Meng Qi is really a thousand miles away!" ”
