Cao Shuo was talking with Ding Yao, and Ding Yao's personal maid walked in.

"Madam, Duke Cao sent someone to invite the son." The maid said.

"Zirong is here with me, he can find it?" Ding Yao said: "I'm really looking for it urgently. ”

"The guards who came said that General Xu couldn't find Gongzi anywhere, and sent many people to look around, so someone would come here." The maid replied, "Duke Cao asked Gongzi to go to the study to see him immediately." ”

"He must be looking for you for something." Ding Yao said: "Don't delay with me, go see your father quickly." ”

"Dong Cheng and the others have been ambushed, and my father has also gone to the palace." Cao Shuo said: "Dong Guiren must have died at this time, and my father came to me for Liu Xuande. ”

"I heard that you persuaded him to kill Liu Xuande a long time ago." Ding Yao said: "It's a pity that he always refused to listen, so Liu Xuande turned out of Xu Du." Your father has the power to rule the world, but he has a big problem. ”

"Mother is saying that father often sees through things after they have happened?" Cao Shuo asked with a smile.

"It's good to know, what to say and do?" Ding Yao snorted angrily: "Let him hear it?" ”

"Mother admonishes me." Cao Shuo said: "I leave Xu Du this time, I don't know when I will be able to come back, my mother must cherish it." If something doesn't go your way, don't be angry with your father, say hello to him and go to live in Huainan for a few days, and the child will be filial to his mother. ”

"I know you are filial!" Ding Yao smiled slightly and gently pushed him: "Don't go quickly, don't let your father wait in a hurry." ”

"Since my mother drove me away, then I will retire first!" Cao Shuo saluted and said.

Ding Yao rolled his eyes: "I haven't been serious all day long, and it's the same when I talk to my mother, I don't know what it's like to get along with people outside." ”

"Whatever I say, my mother can forgive." Cao Shuo said: "When talking to outsiders, I won't do this. The second son of the Cao family is not an incompetent person in other families! ”

"You'll say it!" Ding Yao said: "Your father said a few days ago that from now on you will be the son of the Cao family, and you can no longer call yourself the second son in the future." ”

"The boy wrote it down." Cao Shuo responded.

Leaving Ding Yao's residence, as soon as he arrived at the door, Cao Shuo saw Xu Chu coming over.

"Brother Zhongkang, why are you here?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Gong Cao and the other sons are in a hurry, I heard that the sons are here, so I specially ordered me to come to greet them." Xu Chu replied.

"Dong Guiren has been killed?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Killed!" Xu Chu replied, and then asked Cao Shuo in surprise: "Childe doesn't doubt that Cao Gong is not bad for His Majesty?" ”

"Don't even think about it, my father won't!" Cao Shuo said: "I told my father earlier that this matter has nothing to do with Your Majesty. In fact, even if it is related, for the sake of Xu Du's stability, my father will not do anything to His Majesty. Once His Majesty is killed, although Xu Du is in the hands of his father, the heroes from all over the country will immediately use troops against Xu Du. ”

"It's still a childe who can see through." Xu Chu said: "Gong Cao invited his son to go, in fact, he wanted to ask Liu Xuande where he would go. ”

"Xuzhou." Cao Shuo said without thinking about it: "He is familiar with Xuzhou, where the Cao family has little influence, once Liu Xuande arrives in Xuzhou, he will definitely be able to recruit soldiers and horses to be enemies of the Cao family." If I were Liu Xuande, the first thing I would think of when I entered Xuzhou was not to oppose the Cao family, but to advance the army Huainan. ”

"What does Childe mean ......" Xu Chu asked, "Will Liu Xuande use troops against Childe?" ”

"That's for sure." Cao Shuo said: "But I'm just waiting for him to use troops, Shouchun City has three battalions of dragon pattern, flying bear, and broken formation, and soon Huo Wu will also go to Shouchun with me." There are tens of thousands of reclamation troops outside the city, and soldiers and horses can be recruited at any time, Liu Xuande dares to use troops against me, and I dare to let him leave no chickens and dogs! ”

Cao Shuo said this, and Xu Chu did not have any doubts at all.

When the same words came out of someone else's mouth, Xu Chu would definitely think that person was a madman.

Even Cao Cao was put on the hook by Liu Bei, and if others wanted to deal with Liu Bei, it would not be so simple.

However, when the words came out of Cao Shuo's mouth, Xu Chu didn't know why, but there was an inexplicable belief in his heart.

Coming to the door of Cao Cao's study, Xu Chu stepped forward and said, "Qi Cao Gong, the eldest son is here!" ”

When Xu Chu said the words "eldest son", Cao Shuo subconsciously looked at him.

Cao Cao's voice came from inside the house: "Let him in." ”

When Cao Shuo entered the house, he asked Xu Chu in a low voice, "What did Brother Zhongkang call me just now?" ”

"The eldest son." Xu Chu replied in the same small voice: "It was Gong Cao who ordered us to call it that. ”

Xu Chu's answer made Cao Shuo instantly understand that deep in Cao Cao's heart, he had become the rightful heir of the Cao family.

As long as there are no mistakes in the future, the Cao family will be his sooner or later!

Entering the room, Cao Shuo saluted Cao Cao and asked, "Father asked me to come over, is there something important to order?" ”

"Dong Guiren has been killed by me." Cao Cao said lightly.

"There are pros and cons to my father's doing." Cao Shuo said: "For so many years, my father has done his best for the Han family, just because of this incident, his image in the hearts of the people of the world must be greatly reduced. However, killing Dong Guiren is also a deterrent to His Majesty, so that he can be more stable in the future and will not cause more trouble. ”

Cao Cao nodded and said to Cao Shuo: "The matter of the edict has been properly resolved, and the top priority is to deal with Liu Xuande." ”

"I mentioned this to Zhong Kang just now." Cao Shuo said: "When Liu Xuande leaves Xudu, he will definitely go to Xuzhou. Xuzhou is adjacent to Hebei, and after sitting there, he will try his best to contact the Yuan family, and use the momentum of the Yuan family to make enemies of his father. ”

"I should have listened to you a long time ago and killed Liu Xuande!" Cao Cao said: "Now that he is allowed to run, it will be endless troubles." ”

"In fact, when he was in Xudu, I thought of many ways to provoke." Cao Shuo said: "If you were someone else, I don't know how many times I have died." However, Liu Xuande handled things steadily and steadily, and never lost his proportions because of my provocations. That's when I was sure that this man was going to be killed! ”

"How is Lu Bu now?" Cao Cao asked.

Cao Shuo smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said to Cao Cao: "When Liu Xuande goes to Xuzhou, I just want Lu Bu to lead the army to fight." ”

"The enemies are very red when they see each other." Cao Cao said: "Once Lu Bu has the upper hand, he will definitely not leave Liu Xuande with any way to live." ”

"My father can see through that Liu Xuande arrived in Xuzhou, even if a large number of soldiers and horses were recruited, most of the soldiers under his command were new recruits, and they did not have the strength to fight." Cao Shuo said: "It's not difficult to defeat him, what really makes me feel a little difficult is to capture him or kill him." ”
