Lu Budou doesn't know a few words, and he wants to talk about teaching the scriptures, which is simply nonsense, but no matter what others say, he is also the first military general in the Three Kingdoms period, and his martial arts talent naturally does not need to be said.

Lu Bu told Cao Xing the world that martial arts are divided into ten levels, but with Cao Xing's current level, the tenth layer can be ignored, just look at the previous ninefolds, each of which is divided into three realms of consummation in the early and late stages, and now Cao Xing's martial arts aura has reached the level of the late fivefold martial arts stage.

With each additional weight, the combat power can be doubled, so the current Cao Xing only needs to use the breathing method well and constantly increase his martial arts.

Cao Xing nodded when he heard this, but he was still quite curious, since Lu Bu said that the martial arts in the world are divided into ten levels, what would the tenth martial arts look like? However, Lu Bu was silent for a long time, and then looked at Cao Xuan solemnly and said.

"Tenth Martial Path, even I haven't reached that realm!"

Hearing this, Cao Xing was a little surprised, since the martial arts in the world have been divided, he didn't expect that Lu Bu, the number one martial artist in the world, has not yet stood on the commanding heights of this martial arts.

"The tenth level of martial arts is called the heart of martial arts, this definition is relatively broad, including all your understanding of martial arts, before you can practice, although now I have a comprehension of my own martial arts, but I have never practiced my own ultimate martial arts, let alone comprehend the so-called heart of martial arts!"

The ultimate martial arts that Lu Bu said are a bit like their own mastery, which requires practice to make perfect, and to refine into steel, in order to practice their own ultimate martial arts.

After listening to Lu Bu's explanation, Cao Xing also understood, nodded, and finally went back the next day.

After going back, life went as usual, Zou Man took care of Cao Xing's daily life, which was equivalent to a maid by Cao Xing's side, and Che Wu continued to manage the army, but Cao Xing handed over all the things about reviewing military affairs to Xu Shu.

At the beginning, there were still many people who were a little worried, Xu Shu used to be just a ranger in the rivers and lakes, although he knew a few words, but not many, and even the most preliminary literacy and hyphenation had not been reached, wouldn't it be chaotic to ask him to review military affairs? After hearing these voices, Cao Xing also looked for Xu Shu and had a special conversation, and after Cao Xing and Xu Shu talked, Cao Xuan stopped talking and continued to let Xu Shu review military affairs.

At first, many people were very puzzled about Cao Xing, why he was so relieved of Xu Shu, but as time went by, those who still had doubts looked at Xu Shu differently.

Indeed, Xu Shu was originally just an ordinary ranger, thinking that with the three-foot Qingfeng in his hand, he could kill all the evils in the world, but after experiencing Zhou Yin's incident, Xu Shu finally realized how stupid he was before, and if he wanted to create the fair world in his heart, he could only have a chance by studying.

So every night, you can see that Xu Shu's room is still brightly lit, and he is constantly reading and practicing calligraphy day and night.

What is surprising is that it seems that it only took a week for Xu Shu to be able to read and break words, and the review of military affairs, except for a slight lack of experience, there is no big problem with others, many people are very surprised that Xu Shu's talent for reading is so high, and he has completed other people's things for a year or even a few years in a week, which can indeed be said to be a good genius.

Cao Xing is now completely idle, anyway, whether it is military affairs or government affairs, he doesn't have to take the initiative, so he keeps studying his martial arts every day, until one day the thing that should come finally comes.

On this day, Zou Man was serving by Cao Xing's side, and Cao Xing was tirelessly studying Sun Tzu's Art of War, but at this moment, Che Wu ran in, and then said to Cao Xing.

"Lord, the military merits I made half a month ago have finally been approved, but the person who came to reply to me said that the enemy you killed in Yingchuan this time is to be discussed, and I ask you to go to the Taiwei Mansion in person to show justice!"

Cao Xing, the general, should logically belong to the jurisdiction of the general, but now that the general He Jin is dead, the imperial court has not elected a new general, so all military affairs are basically handed over to the captain.

Taiwei is subordinate to the three dukes, and nominally all the soldiers and horses in the world have to listen to Taiwei's orders, but this is just talking, and he will only be a famous and powerless official position in peacetime.

Now that the general is dead, these things will naturally fall into the hands of the captain.

"Who is the Imperial Lieutenant, have you heard? Who is the one who questioned my military merits? Cao Xuan asked Che Wu.

"As a lieutenant, it is Ma Riyan, as far as I know, his personality is quite fair, the reason why he will question your military exploits, as far as I know, someone is responsible for it!"

"Who!"

"Yuan Shu, it seems that he is engaged in the Taiwei Mansion!"

Hearing the name Yuan Shu, Cao Xing's eyes flashed with a touch of uncertainty, now Cao Xuan is in the maelstrom of Luoyang, and if he wants to save his life, the news channel has become extremely critical, so from the first moment he arrived, Cao Xuan gave Che Wu enough money and asked Che Wu to establish an intelligence network that belongs to him.

Cao Xing had been at odds with Yuan Shao before, and even slapped Yuan Shao, Cao Xing estimated that Yuan Shao had hated him to death at the moment, but Cao Xing knew that Yuan Shao's brother Yuan Shu was not a good stubble, and it was estimated that this time the incident was really caused by Yuan Shu, thinking of this, the corners of Cao Xing's mouth curled up with a sneer.

The next morning, Cao Xing got up early in the morning, then walked out on the street alone, and finally came to the front of the Taiwei Mansion.

After all, the Taiwei is in charge of the military aspect, so the defense of the Taiwei Mansion is relatively tight, there are two rows of guards standing guard at the door, Cao Xuan told these guards his intention, these guards did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to report, and after a while, three people walked to Cao Xing's side, and the officer who was the leader said to Cao Xing.

"The Captain is already waiting for you in the lobby, go quickly!"

"Hehe, it's really the general of Lao, I'll go if you let me go, but why do you keep bringing people behind me!" Cao Xuan looked at the officer and asked with a smile.

"Hehe, what do you think this place is? This is the Taiwei Mansion, we are following you, not afraid that you will mess around, in addition, you immediately hand over all the weapons on your body now, this is also for the sake of safety! ”

This officer spoke to Cao Xing quite vigorously, after all, Cao Xing was just a small partial general, and he was engaged in the Tai Lieutenant's Mansion, so he naturally had a sense of superiority, looking at the appearance of this sergeant, and then looked at the expressions of the two rows of guards next to him, Cao Xuan smiled and threw the sword on his waist directly into the officer's hand, and then strode towards the direction of the hall.

As soon as Cao Xuan walked into the Taiwei Mansion, he saw that both sides of the place were already full of people, mostly some military personnel. On the main seat sat an old man in his fifties, needless to say, he was the Taifu Ma Riyan of the dynasty.

Cao Xuan walked to the middle and directly clenched his fist to Ma Riyan: "Lord Taiwei, under Cao Xuan, I am ordered to come!" ”

Ma Riyan looked Cao Xing up and down, and then nodded, and then got to the point.

"Cao Xing, I have read the military report that Yingchuan Taishou Zhou Yin came up with, it says that you Cao Xing took the lead in this battle, and won a total of more than 10,000 heads of the Yellow Turban Army and captured more than 3,000 people of the Yellow Turban Army, which is really not a small credit, but the content written on this military newspaper is slightly different from what we actually know!"

"Oh, why did Lord Taiwei say this, it was really a battle between me and Yingchuan Taishou Zhou Yin, if you have any doubts about my combat exploits, you can personally send someone to ask Lord Zhou Yin, or bring him directly and confront him face to face, so that all doubts will be solved!"

As soon as Cao Xing finished speaking, Ma Riyan touched his beard and before he could speak, a loud shout came from the side.

"Cao Xing, you are so bold, you don't learn anything, you have to learn from Dong Zhuo's dog thief's actions, you actually kill the good and take the risk, it is simply intolerable, and the crime is unforgivable!"

Cao Xuan glanced at Yuan Shu next to him, and found that Yuan Shu's expression was quite excited at the moment, as if he was worried, so he really did something angry and heinous.

However, in the face of Yuan Shu's anger, Cao Xuan showed a hint of a smile, and it could even be said that he smiled very brightly.

If Cao Xuan hadn't met Xu Shu when he was in Yingchuan, maybe Cao Xing thought that Zhou Yin's case was a ghost made by other families, in order to target Zhou Yin, the Taishou, but after meeting Xu Shu, Cao Xing found that things didn't seem to be as simple as he imagined, and this incident was definitely caused by his arrival Cao Xing, and it was clearly aimed at her Cao Xing.

Seeing Cao Xuan smiling so brightly at himself, Yuan Shu's face gradually sank, and he even had some panic in his heart, he shouted again: "Cao Xing, you make it clear to me, now that you are in the Taiwei Mansion, we are interrogating you as a person from the Taiwei Mansion, you had better explain honestly!" ”

"Hehe, didn't I already say it? You go and find Zhou Yin for me, if you have anything to ask him directly face to face, I believe that with his personality and their family's reputation, he will definitely not lie! ”

"Don't think I don't know, you're just a so-called delaying tactic, today we want you to explain the truth, if you are still here to block and refuse to confess, then don't blame me for the punishment!" A hideous look rose on Yuan Shu's face.

Hearing this, Cao Xing laughed twice, and looked at Ma Riyan on the main seat, and Ma Riyan's face was more or less entangled at this moment.
