Half a month later, Xu Tian and his entourage arrived in Xudu.

Under Cao Cao's special arrangement, they lived in a heavily guarded post house.

Xu Tian knew that these people were ostensibly here to protect themselves, but in fact, they were just eyeliner and guards.

However, despite this, Cao Cao did not restrict their freedom.

"Abide by the rules, Zhou Yi, you will spread the news of my arrival as discussed before, and the more people who know, the better!"

As soon as he entered the room, Xu Tian said to Shen Du and the others.

"Understood!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Shen Du immediately went forward and opened the door.

I saw a person walking in with a smile on his face, followed by the young scholar.

"You are?" Shen Du looked at the visitor vigilantly and asked in a low voice.

"Abide by the rules, Zhou Yi, you go out first!" Xu Tian saw the person who came and said to the two.

Without the slightest hesitation, Shen Du and Zhou Yi turned around and left.

"Wu Zhen, you should go out too!" The visitor smiled and spoke.

The young scholar bowed to Xu Tian with a fist, showed reverence on his face, and turned to leave.

"Sir hasn't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed?!"

"Thanks to the second son's concern, Xu Tian is grateful!" Xu Tian stepped forward and clenched his fists and said,

The person who came was Cao Pi.

"My father is busy with official business, and he is old, so let me come to receive Mr. first, I hope Mr. will not blame!"

Cao Pi showed his gentle smile and said sincerely.

After a polite greeting, the two sat across from each other, with a pot of wine on the table.

This is what Zhou Yi took out just now, wanting to take the opportunity to curry favor with Xu Tian.

Since being reused by Xu Tian, Zhou Yi has carried forward his own set, always thinking about how to please Xu Tian.

Cao Pi personally picked up the wine jug, poured a full bottle for Xu Tian, and delivered it to him.

Xu Tian looked at all this lightly, he knew very well in his heart what this Cao Pi wanted to do.

Sure enough, a moment later, Cao Pi said straight to the point.

"Sir, do you remember what I said a few years ago?"

After speaking, he didn't wait for Xu Tian to answer, so he continued.

"Now, what I want to tell my husband is that those words are still valid.

As long as my husband can really help me, all the conditions are easy to say! ”

Now that the other party has already made it clear, Xu Tian doesn't plan to hide it.

"Childe's meaning, I understand it below, and I promise Childe that I will do my best to realize what Childe wants.

And, it will definitely work. ”

After speaking, Xu Tian sneered inwardly.

This Cao Pi is nothing more than trying to win over some of his own forces, so as to make full preparations for becoming the prince.

As for the result, of course Xu Tian knows, but for the current Cao Pi, everything is still difficult to say.

Therefore, when Cao Cao asked him to receive Xu Tian, his excitement was beyond words.

After getting the news that Xu Tian was coming, he was still worried about how to approach Xu Tian without showing a trace.

It just so happened that with this opportunity, he didn't intend to hint around the bush again.

What has come so far is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Instead of guessing, it's better to get straight to the point and explain the words.

What made Cao Pi even more excited was that Xu Tian understood his intentions at a glance.

And almost explicitly told him that he already knew what he was thinking.

"Then thank you, sir..."

The two chatted late, and it wasn't until late at night that Cao Pi left satisfied...

…

Three days later, Xu Tian and his entourage, who had been placed in the post house, finally received a summons.

It's just that what Cao Cao wants to see is only Xu Tian.

So, Xu Tian was alone, followed the guards, and walked into the Wei Palace.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or a deliberate design, when Xu Tian arrived, it was when Cao Cao met with Wenwu.

So, Xu Tian stood alone outside the hall and waited silently.

In fact, he knew in his heart that this was Cao Cao's design, and the other party also loved to do this kind of thing.

But all this just confirms Xu Tian's thoughts.

The corners of Xu Tian's mouth rose slightly, and his play was about to start.

After nearly half an hour, the meeting in the hall was over.

One by one, the officials with a slightly dignified face walked out slowly.

Due to Shen Du and Zhou Yi's deliberate dissemination, almost everyone now knows that Xu Tian, the demon who destroyed the Wang family, has returned.

In this way, many people moved secretly, and for the Shi clan, Xu Tian was the existence that everyone could get and be punished.

Of all the officials who came out, almost no one was looking at Xu Tian.

They walked past him one after another, and from time to time they spoke without discipline, showing their disdain.

Some people have even secretly decided to teach this Xu Tian a lesson.

For this kind of scene, Xu Tian could have ignored it a long time ago.

After waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, a guard came running and clenched his fists.

"Wei Yan is invited!"

…

"Do you think I'm deliberately trying to embarrass you?"

Cao Cao personally took some tribute snacks for Xu Tian, who had just sat down.

"Taste this..."Cao Cao smiled and handed it over, and said.

"Everyone will think that I have called you to kill you to get rid of the trouble.

I'm afraid, even you don't believe it, do you? ”

As he spoke, Cao Cao smiled and looked at Xu Tian.

What Cao Cao said is indeed the truth, his own character is that he doesn't want others to control him.

What everybody thinks he won't do, he's going to do.

And vice versa.

He just wanted to tell everyone that he was Cao Cao, and no one could guess his mind.

Just like now, everyone thought that he would kill Xu Tian.

I'm afraid that Liu Bei and Sun Quan, who are thousands of miles away, think the same way.

The more this is the case, the less he will do it. That's what he is.

It's just that he doesn't know all this, which is exactly what Xu Tian wants to see.

Because he understands what Cao Cao's so-called suspicion is.

"Then does King Wei want to do something below?"

With a slight sigh of relief in his heart, Xu Tian said slowly.

"There's one thing, very important, and I want to hear from you.

Who should sit on the throne of the world? ”

Cao Cao said lightly, as if he was talking about someone else's family.

"This..."Xu Tian pretended to be panicked, and he didn't dare to say anything.

"You can say at will, it's just you and me here, and you have nothing to do with the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

So whatever you say, out of your mouth and into my ears, no one will know! ”

Xu Tian was silent for a long time, but Cao Cao didn't seem to be displeased, but was thinking about something very seriously.

"From ancient times to the present, there is almost no good ending."

As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as he knew what he was calling Xu Tian for.

He is paving the way for Cao Pi, and if he can win over, he will win over, if he can't, or if he will pose a threat to him, almost all of them are gone.

And Xu Tian only reacted just now, it turned out that the real crisis was in the problem just now.

Cao Cao's thoughts, sure enough, no one could figure it out, Xu Tian sighed deeply...
