Chapter 837: Reclaiming Military Power

When he returned home, he ordered his servants to keep anyone from visiting.

But as soon as he sat down in the house, a servant reported outside the door: "Qi Fu Gong, Cao Gong is invited." ”

Anyone Fu Wan said, of course, did not include Cao Cao.

just came back from the palace, and with his identity, it was easy to arouse Cao Cao's suspicion.

If Cao Cao summons him, he doesn't go, not to mention that Queen Fu invited him to go because she planned to kill Cao Cao, even if there was nothing at all, it would cause a lot of trouble.

Knowing that it was Cao Cao who invited him, Fu Wan hurriedly walked out of the room.

The person waiting outside was none other than Xu Chu.

Seeing Fu Wan, Xu Chu arched his hand and said, "Fu Gong, Cao Gong invites you to go over and talk!" ”

After returning the salute, he asked Xu Chu: "I don't know if Gong Cao asked me to go, what's the matter?" ”

"Cao Gong's recent handling of military affairs is all military affairs." Xu Chu said: "Let me invite Fu Gong, of course there is something important. Could it be that Fu Gong thinks Cao Gong is very idle? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Fu Wan hurriedly said, "I'll go with the general." ”

After leading the ambush, Xu Chu did not speak all the way.

I had the heart to ask him about something, but I didn't know how to open my mouth after I finished it, so I had to shut up and don't ask more.

Cao Cao did not wait for him in the front hall, but asked Xu Chu to take him to the study.

entered the backyard of Cao's house and learned that he was going to see Cao Cao in the study, and he was relieved.

If Cao Cao planned to kill him, he would definitely meet him in the front hall, and then ask a few staff members and generals to give circumstantial evidence.

Invite him to the study, what he has to say should not be a big deal.

Coming to the door of the study, Xu Chu stepped forward to report, and waited on the side after the end.

After receiving Cao Cao's response, Xu Chu said to Fu Wan: "Fu Gong, please." ”

Xiang Xu Chu hugged his fist and entered the study after finishing his work.

Cao Cao was poring over a map made of sheepskin.

"I've seen Cao Gong!" Bow down and salute.

Looking up at him, Cao Cao smiled and said, "I heard that you went to the palace just now?" ”

"Yes, the queen asked the palace maid to ask me to go." Fu Wan replied: "It's just about the relationship between father and daughter, and it's nothing particularly important." ”

"At the beginning, Dong Guigui and Dong Cheng, but it was because of the relationship between father and daughter that they had an edict." Cao Cao still said with a smile on his face: "Of course, I believe that you are not a scheming person like Dong Cheng. ”

"Cao Gong's words are heavy." Fu Wan said: "Dong Cheng is a thief and a thief, he dares to try against Cao Gong behind His Majesty's back, if it weren't for Cao Gong to kill him, I would definitely spit on his face." ”

"It's better to listen to Fu Gong's words." Cao Cao laughed and said to Fu Wan: "I invited you to come, but not for this matter. ”

"Cao Gong just commands, and I will do my best." After finishing the bow, he hugged his fists and bowed in response.

"Lend me all your soldiers." Cao Cao said: "Yuan Shao asked Chen Lin to write an article about Cao Wei, although I haven't seen it yet, I know his thoughts. Hebei soldiers and horses are strong, and relying only on my Tiger Guard Army may not be Yuan Shao's opponent, so I must gather all the soldiers and horses under my command together to resist Yuan Shao with all my might. ”

"My soldiers are not all Cao Gong's soldiers." Fu Wan said: "What does Cao Gong say to borrow, if you want military power, just take it, I can be at ease." ”

"You can still see it!" Gently patting Fu Wan's shoulder, Cao Cao sighed: "There are not a few old ministers left now, I don't want to see you in a different place because of something." To deal with Yuan Shao, you don't have to go, let the younger generals lead the troops. ”

"I was about to mention this matter to Cao Gong, but I didn't expect Cao Gong to say it first." Fu Wan said: "Cao Gong doesn't have to return the soldiers and horses to me after taking them back, I'm getting older and older, and it's no longer suitable to march and fight, even if I give me more soldiers and horses, I can't share the worries for Cao Gong and His Majesty, it's better to hand over the military power and take an idle post, and I should be old-fashioned!" ”

Fu Wan offered to hand over all the military power, which was really a bit unexpected by Cao Cao.

After staring at Fu Wan for a long time, Cao Cao suddenly laughed.

"Cao Gong thinks what I said is wrong?" Fu Wan asked.

"When I was in the prime of life, I was going to shirk my responsibility." Cao Cao nodded at the tip of his nose and said, "You old slippery head!" ”

"There are many capable people under Cao Gong's command, and I am only a shallow learner and I am also old." Fu shook his head and said, "It's too much to use." ”

"When it comes to this, I don't embarrass you." Cao Cao said: "Get a spare job, it's okay to enjoy the flowers and birds in the back garden at home." ”

"Thank you Cao Gongcheng." Cao Cao relieved, and hurriedly hugged his fists and bowed down to thank him.

The two chatted for a while, and then retreated.

Seeing him go away, Xu Chu said to Cao Cao: "Cao Gong really believes that he didn't do anything in the palace? ”

"Him?" Cao Cao shook his head and smiled, and said to Xu Chu: "Fu Wan is an old fox, he is different from Dong Cheng. Dong Cheng has always been ambitious, but he has not. There must be something going to the palace for him this time, but he just won't do it. ”

"Do you want to look it up?" Xu Chu asked.

"I've already taken his military power, what else can he do?" Cao Cao said: "There is no need to check further, since he has no intention of being unfavorable to me, I will let him live until he dies of old age." ”

"Cao Gong is benevolent." Xu Chu said: "Knowing that someone is not good for him, he actually doesn't investigate it deeply. ”

"A lot of things can't be solved by digging deeper." Cao Cao said: "If you kill one Dong Cheng, there will always be other Dong Cheng jumping out." He didn't intend to do anything bad to me, so why should I kill him? ”

"You go and inform Xiahoudun and let him take over the soldiers and horses that have been ambushed." Cao Shuo instructed Xu Chu: "Except for leaving him more than ten guards, the rest of the men and horses are all under the command of Xiahoudun." ”

Xu Chu responded with a fist and exited Cao Cao's study.

"Cao Gong!" Not long after Xu Chu left, Xun Yu came again.

As soon as he entered the door, he said to Cao Cao: "Yuan Shao's crusade against Cao Gong is here. ”

"Yuan Shao has already mobilized his troops and horses?" Cao Cao asked.

"Not yet." Xun Yu said: "It was stolen from Hebei by Huo Wu, the eldest son, and it was sent to Xu Du for Cao Gong to see." ”

"Zirong's subordinates really have some capable people." Cao Cao asked, "Who stole it from Fire Dance?" Where is he now? ”

"It's Chen Wu, the captain of the Fire Dance Battalion." Xun Yu said: "Send the text, Chen Wu has returned to Shouchun. ”

"Just after arriving in Xudu, he will return to Shouchun, it seems that he has more important things to tell Zirong." Cao Cao said: "First bring me the text to me." ”

Xun Yu took out a silk silk full of small characters written on it from his arms, held it in both hands and handed it to Cao Cao.

After taking the silk, Cao Cao glanced at it, and his brows immediately furrowed.

"What a Chen Lin!" After reading the text, Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said: "Scolding me is dripping with joy, as if I picked up his ancestral grave." ”
