The sun is rising, the air is not yet hot, in the cool morning breeze, people come and go, and then they run to the eaves of the street, the second floor of the wine shop and restaurant is also full of people looking at the direction of the north gate, and a horse team of more than 1,000 people enters the city with heavy hooves.

The streets and the entrance to the North Market were crowded, and the people who could not be seen in the rear stood on tiptoe and tried to stretch their necks to look over there, and the Cao soldiers in the city held spears to push back the surging human walls, and there were also messengers who struck gongs at other interfaces to let the people who were still rushing back, so as not to ram the cavalry entering the city.

The sudden news that the northland cavalry entered Xudu has spread rapidly in the city, and the concealment was too good before, when the team arrived in the city for more than fifty miles, it was only known, and at this time, there were also many eyes of various families in the crowd of people watching, and the two sides should have been in a state of war, and suddenly entered Xudu with such a little manpower, and many people still did not react to this kind of news.

A moment later, Iron Hoof stepped into the street.

Several white wolf flags waved, with two columns of marching guard wolves riding on their waists and carrying double knives, after entering the city gate, their eyes have been staring at everyone in the surrounding buildings, and the five hundred white wolves behind them are riding on the side of guns and horses, holding the reins in one hand and pressing the knife in the other, just like their generals, their faces are serious and indifferent, and the afterglow also spreads over the whispering crowd on both sides, and countless eyes are focused on the white wolf flag.

"That's the Governor of the Northlands......"

"The last time I saw ....., my old hair wasn't gray...... I didn't expect so many years to pass in a flash. ”

"What does this governor want to do this time? Isn't it a war with the prime minister? ”

“.…… Who can say clearly, these feudal officials fight today, tomorrow and tomorrow, isn't it the norm, it's not worth it, it's not worth it, I heard that there are tens of thousands of displaced people in Jizhou, and when it comes to winter, if these people don't have the help of the government, most of them will die in the wilderness......"

"What do you know, such a talent is majestic!"

In the midst of the small words, the people watched the long procession go far into the streets, turn the direction at the end of the market, and then the crowd dispersed in whispered conversations, and some of them rushed back to the lord's house with what they had seen with their own eyes. On the other side, the team is still moving forward, the crowd on both sides of the market is still not small, Gongsun Zhi is riding on horseback, for the whispers around him, just buzzing and noisy, and he doesn't care, at the moment he is thinking about to see Cao Cao who is sick on the couch, for the prime minister, he has some complicated emotions in his heart.

For the two of them, if Gongsun Zhi hadn't decided to go south to chase Lu Bu's bad luck, he would not have robbed his current wife, slashed Ren Hongchang, and even met Cao Cao, who was beaten by Xu Rong and almost killed him...... There would be no Northland today.

"Chief, the front is here." Cao Chun's voice sounded beside him.

When his thoughts stopped, Gongsun stopped his voice, raised his head and glanced at the door plaque with the word Cao Fu, turned over and dismounted silently, and then whispered: "Follow me into the house." He walked up the stone steps.

At the same time, there is a sword hidden between the words in the backyard of the house.

"Zijian! Tell me, what is written on this bamboo slip—"

A roll of bamboo slips fell in the courtyard, scattered and splashed, Cao Pi stood on the steps under the eaves, staring at Cao Zhi in the courtyard with bloodshot eyes, dressed in light blue and dark clothes, the latter was stunned, watching a piece of bamboo slips roll to the side of his steps, his white cheeks suddenly flushed a little red, and he lowered his head slightly and did not dare to respond.

"Roselle..... Roselle Mi Concubine...... Hahaha-" Cao Pi walked down step by step, raised one of the pieces of bamboo on the ground in his hand and raised it towards the younger brother opposite, and the spit flew out with laughter, "....... you are my own brother, look at what is written on this!" ”

Compared with his brother's madness and indignation, Cao Zhi was still younger, and he knew that he had done something wrong, his emotions were complicated and low, and in the afterglow that hung slightly, the woman who was haunted by the dream was standing under the eaves of the corridor opposite, looking at him according to the pillars, her face was even redder, and she lowered her voice: "Brother...... Wrong planting...... In the future, I will move out of the backyard and go to the outer courtyard to sit, my father is seriously ill now, don't tell him......"

"You still know in your heart that your father is seriously ill!" Cao Pi walked into him, pursed his lips and snorted, and after a while, his tone softened: "The eldest brother has not been here for many years, you are the third brother, and I have to take care of you for my brother...... Forget about this matter, and you and I won't mention it in the future. ”

Cao Zhi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Zhi thanked my brother." ”

"But ......"

When the sky shone down, Cao Pi got close to the past and whispered in the other party's ear: "Don't show off your literary talent in front of your father in the future......" He stuffed the bamboo piece with the words 'Feeling Zhen Fu' in his hand into Cao Zhi's hand, "...... stay at home and drink a little wine and write articles, and the Cao family will be different in the future." ”

After speaking, he laughed again, turned around and walked to the corridor in high spirits, took Zhen Mi over, and raised his hand: "Let's go, remember what I said for my brother...... In the future, put more thought on the article, you wrote well! ”

Cao Pi hugged his wife and left here in high spirits, and was about to go to his side yard, in front of the covered bridge of the link, there was a commotion from the outer courtyard, he stopped and was about to call a nearby guard to see what was going on, and a servant had already hurriedly ran over from the front yard: "The second son's ..... is not good, it is the Gongsun Zhi who kills people inconspicuously......

"Gongsun Zhi's army has killed Xudu?" Cao Pi hurriedly let go of his wife, "When?" ”

The servant hurriedly waved his hand, and was about to bite his tongue in a hurry: "No, it was Gongsun Zhi who entered the city with more than 1,000 people, and now everyone has entered the mansion and is coming over this way, and a group of people from Commander Cao and Xun are accompanying him." ”

The 'Zhen Mi' next to him lit up his eyes, the corners of his mouth were imperceptibly hooked into a smile, and he didn't speak, quietly watching how the husband next to him coped, but before Cao Pi could make a countermeasure, the corridor linking the front yard had already sounded footsteps, and the guards of the Cao Mansion around him were nervous at this moment.

"Come here—" Cao Pi finally shouted.

Dozens of guards, as well as a team of soldiers who happened to patrol over, came up to form an array, blocking the exit of the covered bridge and corridor, and listened to the sound of heavy footsteps mixed with the sound .....of iron pieces on the armor shaking closer and closer, two groups of armor soldiers with knives rushed over, and when they saw the Cao Fu soldiers who were assembled in formation, they suddenly drew their swords together, and a murderous aura in the battlefield conquest suddenly spread.

Cao Pi, who was shocked, couldn't help but take a step back.

"Stop!" Cao Chun and Xun Yu spoke at the same time, "Put away all the weapons, the governor of Gongsun came to Xu Du at the invitation of the lord, and if you want to mess around, you will retreat!" ”

Waving back the Cao soldiers around him, Cao Pi hurriedly walked up, his eyes firmly fixed on the ironclad man who opened the road opposite, "Uncle, why did they come to Xudu?" What the hell is going on? ”

"This is what your father meant, the second son will come with us." Cao Chun responded to him, and the armor soldier who opened the way behind also neatly retracted his sword and continued to move forward in the movement of the huge burly man who came over raising his hand.

In front of the door of Cao Cao's sick dormitory for a moment, Gongsun Zhi was dressed in armor, and walked past a group of armor soldiers with Li Ke and Zhao Yuncai, and appeared in front of Cao Pi.

"Cao Pi?"

Gongsun Zhi, who came from Long Yuehu, stopped in front of the door, his eyes slanted slightly to look at him, and there was no expression on his face. That Cao Pi was as tall as his ear, and when he heard the indifferent inquiry, he arched his hand, and was about to say the words "It is Pi ......", Gongsun Zhi had already retracted his gaze, reached over and pushed the door, while untying the saber from his waist and throwing it abruptly.

The hand that was arching was hurriedly spread out, Cao Pi held the seven-star knife thrown in his arms, his expression was stunned for a moment, and he heard the figure who stepped into the threshold, turned his face sideways, and the voice sounded.

"My knife is heavy, hold it well, stand outside and wait....... remember to call uncle first when we meet in the future!"

Then the door slammed shut.
