Chapter 14: The Marriage Contract
Three months later, Cao Cao decided to withdraw the army, within three months, as Xu Tian and Xun Yu expected, the three brothers of the Yuan family united, the two armies confronted, and they couldn't hold each other, Cao Cao came on an expedition, naturally he couldn't afford to consume, his heart had been almost consumed, this expedition, he felt very weird, every battle was like a punch on cotton, and he couldn't use it. This made Cao Cao puzzled, so he decided to retreat first and then look for an opportunity. Stage a comeback...
In the Cao Ying barracks, in Zhang Quan's tent, Zhang Quan was holding a secret letter from Yuan Ying in his hand at this moment, there were only four words in it, "Happy cooperation" The corner of Zhang Quan's mouth showed a sneer. In the past few months, there has been a lot of news from Zhang Quan, so that Cao Cao can't make a sense of the source, Zhang Quan has made a lot of efforts. Although he is just a miscellaneous general and has no access to core secrets, all kinds of clues are enough for Yuan Jun to analyze intelligence...
Zhang Quan is a person who is very deep in the city, he likes to grasp the direction of things, just like this time, Cao Cao and the Yuan family do not distinguish between victory and defeat, which is what he hopes the most, he doesn't like to put his eggs in one basket, he doesn't want to rely only on Cao Cao, and at the same time, he doesn't want to rely only on the three brothers of the Yuan family, he doesn't believe in anyone, only believes in himself, at this time, he thinks of Xu Tian, including Xu Tian, he also has control methods and preventive measures, he likes this feeling that everything is under control...
This time back to Xudu, Cao Cao did not punish anyone for returning from defeat, but rewarded a group of people, as he said, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, perhaps it is properly controlled, this matter did not set off a storm of public opinion. Everything seems to be quiet in the past, calm and calm...
Zhang Quan returned home, and learned from his wife Wang that Xu Tian and Murong Hanyan seemed to be more intimate, and he smiled with satisfaction, and became more convinced of his thoughts, and on this day, he came to Xu Tianfang.
"How is it, Mu Lin, during the time that the eldest brother left, he had a good time, did he bully Hanyan?!"
Zhang Quan looked at Xu Tian with a smile and said.
"Where would I bully Miss Hanyan, by the way, this expedition doesn't seem to be going well, is the big brother okay?"
"You're reluctant."
Zhang Quan didn't answer Xu Tian's question, avoided this topic, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said to Xu Tian:
"By the way, what do you think of Hanyan? How about being my brother and sister, of course, if you don't like it, don't say it because of the eldest brother! ”
Xu Tian was stunned, remembered what Zhang Quan said when he left, and his heartbeat accelerated slightly.
"No, no, no. Miss Hanyan is very nice, I... Loved it!! ”
The last three words, Xu Tian said very seriously. Zhang Quanyi slapped the table and stood up.
"Okay, then it's decided, Hanyan's parents handed her over to me, then I'll make a decision, I'll hand her over to you, don't let down your eldest brother."
didn't wait for Xu Tian to speak. Zhang Quan continued:
"Your sister-in-law and I will find a day to find a fortune teller. Look at the date and make a wedding appointment. In this way, you and my eldest brother are kissing each other, and we will soar in the future, but don't disown me as a big brother! ”
Xu Tian was very excited, after listening to Zhang Quan's words, he felt that Zhang Quan was being polite to himself, and he dealt with a few words casually, and in his heart, there was only that touch of pink...
Night. Xu Tian lay on the bed and did not fall asleep. He thought about what he had been doing for a while, since he met Zhang Quan. followed him to Xudu, and he was smooth sailing. In this troubled world, life is like a fish in water. Now, I will return with a beautiful woman. All this was given by Zhang Quan. Xu Tian was full of gratitude and trust in Zhang Quan's heart, he promised in his heart that if he had the opportunity, he would definitely repay Zhang Quan, he also thought that all this he had experienced seemed to be too smooth, but this was just a fleeting thought, at this time, Xu Tian's heart was full of gratitude to Zhang Quan, the expectation of the newlywed, the admiration for Murong Hanyan, and even, he thought of his parents, he was thinking, if his parents knew that he was about to get married, how happy he would be...
At this time, in the Prime Minister's Mansion of Xu Du, Xu Chu. Cao Cao and Xun Yu were sitting together, Cao Cao leaned on a back cushion, looked at Xun Yu and said:
"This has been the case in the past few months, I believe my feelings will not be wrong, I underestimated the three little cubs of the Yuan family, but I won't be so embarrassed."
Xun Yu frowned and thought for a long time, and said with some uncertainty:
"The prime minister's use of troops has always been careful and weird. No one can guess what the prime minister wants to do next, if no matter how it is arranged, the other party can be on a par with himself and deal with it freely, then there is only one possibility, the prime minister's arrangement has long been known by the Yuan family!! ”
Cao Cao sneered and didn't speak, with Xun Yu's high mind, he had already guessed that Cao Cao had already thought of this, so Xun Yu looked at Xu Chu.
"General Xu, when you were in Guandu, the prime minister once asked you to secretly investigate the people who colluded with Yuan Shao among the generals, although the prime minister did not pursue it. However, I'm afraid the general has a list there! ”
Xu Chu grinned and didn't answer, Xu Chu is a rough person and won't hide his emotions, Xun Yu saw the mystery at a glance, sent away the frowning brows, and arched his hand at Cao Cao.
"Prime Minister, this is easy to do, check it, the people who were on the list at the beginning, and the people who followed this time, if I didn't miscalculate, there should be very few people, and there will be results soon..."
Cao Cao laughed, got up and walked into the house, and after he left, a sentence floated faintly:
"Those who know me, Xun Yu is also!"
Xun Yu smiled. Xu Chu scratched his head on the side, as if he wanted to understand something, but he didn't seem to understand, Xun Yu looked at the burly Xu Chu, smiled again, and took him to arrest those people...
At this time, Zhang's house is bustling...
