"Your Majesty, I've seen Your Majesty."

The next day, Xi Zhicai came to Liu Bian's big tent again and saluted Liu Bian.

"Zhicai, you're here, but what's the matter?" When Liu Wei saw that Xi Zhicai was coming, he asked him to get up.

"I don't think you look good? Could it be that you are not feeling well? ”

After Xi Zhicai sat down, Liu Wei looked at Xi Zhicai and said, feeling that Xi Zhicai's face was a little paler than yesterday.

"Is there one? I'm afraid I didn't have a break last night. Xi Zhicai smiled and said, looking like I didn't feel anything.

"Could it be that Zhicai didn't rest well for Sima Yi's business?" Liu Wei didn't think much about it after listening to Xi Zhicai's words, but looked at Xi Zhicai and said.

"Probably, thank you for your concern, the minister is fine." Xi Zhicai hurriedly spoke.

"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and Sima Yi's talent is not under you." Liu Wei looked at Xi Zhicai and comforted.

"If you may be obsessed with winning, I will worry that you will be too extreme and counterproductive."

"Your Majesty rest assured, the minister knows."

Xi Zhicai immediately replied after listening to Liu Wei's words, but he was relieved in his heart.

It seems that His Majesty did not find out about his injury, and the fur he learned from Zhang Zhongjing is still very useful.

However, Xi Zhicai also knows that he can't last long, otherwise he will not be able to hold on for a long time.

"Your Majesty, after General Huang Zhong transported the grain and grass this time, Zhicai hopes that His Majesty can evacuate Guandu."

Xi Zhicai looked at Liu Wei and said, his tone was also very solemn.

"Evacuate?" Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, and then frowned, "Is the situation already so critical?" ”

In his opinion, although the situation is not optimistic, it is far from the point where he wants to admit defeat and retreat.

After listening to Liu Bian's words, Xi Zhicai knew that Liu Bian had misunderstood, so he immediately shook his head, "No, I asked Your Majesty to evacuate Guandu and march from Baima to Chenliu, so as to take Xuchang." ”

"In this way, Xuchang will be shaken, and Your Majesty will take the opportunity to take Yuzhou, and then the Cao army will inevitably retreat."

After Liu Wei heard Xi Zhicai's words, he was also shocked, this is a dangerous move.

Once the plan does not go well and Yuzhou cannot be taken, the battle of Guandu itself will be completely defeated.

And there must be a lot of soldiers and horses to send troops to Yuzhou, and there are many soldiers and horses, and it will be easy to be discovered by Cao Cao's men and horses when the time comes.

Once discovered, it will inevitably be wasted, and even directly lead to the rout of the Battle of Guandu.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I have my own arrangements, and we can use grain and grass as bait when the time comes." Xi Zhicai seemed to understand Liu Wei's worries, and then spoke.

"Your Majesty, you will promise the minister, and the minister assures you that this time it will not be a matter of will."

Xi Zhicai saw that Liu Wei was still a little hesitant, and immediately knelt down and watched Liu Wei ask for his life.

"Zhicai, what are you doing, between you and me, why do you need to be like this."

Liu Wei also didn't expect that Xi Zhicai would plead with him so solemnly.

Looking at Xi Zhicai's eyes, Liu Wei finally nodded, "You get up and say, I promise you, but you need to make a good plan." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Zhicai will live up to Your Majesty's expectations." After listening to Liu Wei's words, Xi Zhicai got up and said.

Liu Wei nodded, "Although victory or defeat is important, it is not the most important thing, Zhicai, do you understand?" ”

Liu Wei was still a little uneasy, he knew that whether it was Xi Zhicai or Guo Jia, or everyone had their own arrogance in their hearts.

So he was afraid that Xi Zhicai wanted to win Sima Yi too much, but he lost his sense of proportion, and said uneasily.

"Your Majesty rest assured, Zhi will understand." Xi Zhicai replied again.

Liu Wei saw that Xi Zhi was like this, so he didn't continue to speak.

"Your Majesty, after General Huang Zhong escorts the grain and grass to arrive, the minister will inform Your Majesty of the plan." After Xi Zhicai finished speaking, he couldn't help coughing twice, and his face naturally looked even worse.

"Well, you go down and rest first." Liu Wei listened to Xi Zhicai's words and spoke.

"Then the minister stepped back for the time being." Xi Zhicai is also not hypocritical, if he continues to stay by Liu Bian's side and support it, he will be discovered sooner or later.

Liu Wei looked at Xi Zhicai and retreated his back, sighed, and then asked Gan Ning to come over.

"Your Majesty, are you looking for the last general?" Gan Ning soon came to Liu Wei's big tent.

"Hmm." Liu Wei nodded when he saw Gan Ning coming.

"I have something to ask you." Liu Wei looked at Gan Ning and didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly.

"Your Majesty, please general, the last general will definitely know everything." After Gan Ning heard Liu Wei's words, he sighed in his heart and immediately spoke.

"Regarding the escort of Cheng Yu, when you returned to Liyang to fight with Sima Yi, was the military advisor injured? Or something else? ”

After listening to Gan Ning's words, Liu Wei asked directly.

"The minister didn't notice anything unusual, and he didn't see the military advisor injured, why did Your Majesty ask so much, could it be that Your Majesty noticed something?" Gan Ning looked at Liu Wei and replied.

"Is that true?" Liu Wei looked at Gan Ning again and confirmed, "Today, I saw that his face was pale, so I asked this question." ”

"I see, but please rest assured, your majesty is safe." Gan Ning looked at Liu Wei and replied again.

Liu Wei looked at Gan Ning, and when he saw Gan Ning swearing so much, he was also a little puzzled.

Is it really just a matter of thinking about it?

"It's okay, you go down first." Liu Wei then raised his hand and signaled.

After Gan Ning left, he quickly returned to his big tent, and after about half an hour, he got up and went to Xi Zhicai's tent.

"General Gan is here, sit down." Xi Zhicai was not surprised at all when he saw Gan Ning coming, and looked at Gan Ning a little weakly and said.

"Strategist, you're welcome, I'll just sit by myself."

"Your Majesty is looking for you today, but you are asking me about it?" After Xi Zhicai sat down with Gan Ning, he looked at Gan Ning and asked.

Although it is an inquiry, it is also an affirmative tone.

"Hmm." Gan Ning didn't hide it and nodded, "Everything is as the military advisor said." ”

"Then have you divulged my injury to Your Majesty?"

"Nope." Gan Ning shook his head, "Since I promised the military advisor, I will definitely not say more, but I don't understand, why the military advisor is unwilling to tell Your Majesty?" ”

"Didn't I tell you, I can't distract Your Majesty, I have already begun to plan to take Yuzhou, if Your Majesty knows that I am injured, I will definitely not agree."

"But..."After listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Gan Ning wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xi Zhicai before he could finish speaking.

"Xingba, I rarely ask for people in my life, just when I beg you, is it okay to keep a secret for me?" Xi Zhicai looked at Gan Ning and said solemnly.

"Alas, the matter has come to this, don't worry, military advisor, but if you really can't hold on, I will definitely tell Your Majesty."

Gan Ning saw that Xi Zhi was like this, and sighed and spoke.

"Don't worry, when the battle of Guandu is over, I will take care of my injuries, and I will definitely not hold on."

After listening to Gan Ning's words, Xi Zhi said with a smile, but with his somewhat pale face, this smile didn't show any joy.

Gan Ning was wondering whether what he was doing was right or wrong.

But when he saw Xi Zhicai, he thought that he had promised him, so he could only sigh.

"Xingba, I still need you to help me." After a while, Xi Zhi looked at Gan Ning and said.

Now that he knows that he is injured, except for Sima Yi, there is only Gan Ning, so there are some things that must be helped by Gan Ning so that he will not be exposed.

"It's okay for the military advisor to say it directly."

Since he has already chosen to help Xi Zhi conceal it, it doesn't hurt that as long as he can do other things without violating his morality.

"After General Huang Zhong arrives, His Majesty will lead the army to attack Xuchang, and when the time comes, I hope you can stay with me, if you change someone else, you will inevitably be discovered."

Xi Zhicai looked at Gan Ning and said, now that everything has been planned, he just needs to wait for Huang Zhong's arrival.

And what worries him the most is naturally that Liu Wei found out about his physical condition in the process.

Xi Zhicai believed that if Liu Wei found out, he would definitely not follow his plan.

This kind of thing will never be allowed by Xi Zhi.

Gan Ning was not surprised after listening to Xi Zhicai's words, and nodded.

"Zhicai, thank you General." Xi Zhicai looked at Gan Ning and saluted.

Sima Yi, this time I will use my life to bet on you to lose.
