Zhao Yun escorted Yuan Shu out of Shouchun.

Deng Zhan stayed near the city gate and waited for Cao Shuo.

It wasn't until it was dark that he saw Cao Shuo and the others come back.

Riding a horse to greet him, Deng Zhan said: "I have been waiting for Gongzi here for a long time, and Gongzi can be regarded as back!" ”

"What's wrong?" Zhao Yun asked, "Isn't Zilong still taking Yuan Shu away?" ”

"General Zhao has been gone for a long time." Deng Zhan said: "I deliberately stayed to wait for my son. ”

"Could it be that there is something that matters?" Cao Shuo asked.

"When General Zhao escorted Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu planned to buy him." Deng Zhan said: "Yuan Shu said that there was not much treasure in the palace at all, and he hid the treasure elsewhere. ”

Cao Shuo and Sima Yi glanced at each other.

Only then did he realize that Yuan Shu was not without treasure at all, but hidden in another place.

"Did Yuan Shu say where he was hiding?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Nope!" Deng Zhan said: "I don't know what Gongzi's plan is, General Zhao didn't dare to agree easily. ”

"And ask me what I'm going to do." Cao Shuo said: "We are now short of money, no matter what, get his treasure first!" ”

"What does Childe mean ......," Deng Zhan asked.

"Yes, of course." Cao Shuo said: "We are short of money, there is such a good thing, how can we miss it?" ”

"Childe plans to let Yuan Shu go?" Deng Zhan asked.

"How is that possible?" Cao Shuo said: "It is a great merit to give Yuan Shu to my father, but the treasure he hid is a great wealth. I'm not greedy, but I can't stand the temptation. I want the treasure, and I want the credit! ”

"Promised Yuan Shu, get the treasure and then escort him to see Cao Gong, wouldn't General Zhao break his trust Yuan Shu?" Deng Zhan said: "General Zhao didn't agree immediately, he should have such concerns. ”

"Tell Zilong that when you find the treasure, let him refuse with too few amounts." Cao Shuo said: "As long as Zilong doesn't go to get the treasure back, it won't be considered a breach of trust!" ”

Deng Zhan was stunned.

Cao Shuo grinned: "If you know where the treasure is, I will let others take it, and you can just take Yuan Shu to Xiapi!" ”

"Childe is right." Sima Yi said on the side: "General Deng doesn't have to worry anymore, just act according to Gongzi's military orders." ”

"I'm going to chase General Zhao!" Knowing what Cao Shuo meant, Deng Zhan responded and rode his horse to chase after Zhao Yun.

Seeing Deng Zhan walk away, Cao Shuo said to Sima Yi: "I said that Yuan Shu left so little treasure, and thought that he was used on the soldiers of the three armies, but now it doesn't seem like that." ”

"If there are really many treasures as Yuan Shu said, even if Huainan grains are not harvested, they can support some more days." Sima Yi said: "Childe was about to sleep, but Yuan Shu sent a pillow. ”

"When you say that, I also think Yuan Shu is empathetic." Cao Shuo grinned: "To be honest, I can't bear to give him to my father!" ”

Knowing that Cao Shuo was joking, Sima Yi smiled: "It's not early, the son should rest early." ”

"Tell Uncle Chen to let him lead the dragon pattern rider to pay close attention to Zilong's movements." Cao Shuo said: "Wait until Yuan Shu leads Zilong to find the treasure, and then let him lead the dragon pattern cavalry soldiers to transport the treasure to Shouchun." ”

"Don't worry, Childe, I will arrange it properly." Sima Yi responded.

Zhao Yun escorted Yuan Shu to leave Shouchun, and they didn't go fast along the way, and they didn't come to Xia Cai until evening.

"General, are you stationed in Xia Cai City tonight, or outside the city?" A Flying Bear Battalion lieutenant asked.

"Into town." Zhao Yun said: "Send someone to open the city gate." ”

The lieutenant answered, and ordered one of the Flying Bear Battalion soldiers behind him, "Go and open the city gate." ”

"General Zhao!" The soldiers left, and Yuan Shu in the prisoner car shouted to Zhao Yun: "If you walk past Xia Cai, what I told the general will be gone!" ”

Glancing back at Yuan Shu, Zhao Yun didn't say anything.

The soldiers who had gone to call the city gate had not yet returned, and the sound of horses' hooves came from behind.

"General Zhao!" Deng Zhan's voice came from behind.

Zhao Yun turned his head and rode his horse to meet him.

Glancing back at Yuan Shu in the prisoner car, Zhao Yun whispered to Deng Zhan and asked, "General Deng, what did Gongzi say?" ”

"Childe means to promise him first." Deng Zhan whispered: "When he takes us to find the treasure, the general will escort him away on the grounds that the treasure is too little, and someone will go to take the treasure later." ”

Zhao Yun shook his head and smiled: "Gongzi can still think of my name, so I will go to answer him." ”

"General Zhao can't!" Deng Zhan hurriedly said: "Wait for Yuan Shu to agree when he speaks again, otherwise he will definitely have doubts in his heart." ”

"It's good!" Zhao Yun said: "You will tell me in a moment that the scouts sent have been probing around, and no one has seen anyone planning to intercept the prisoner car. ”

"I know." Deng Zhan responded.

The two rode forward together, and Deng Zhan and Zhao Yun talked about how to beware of someone intercepting Yuan Shu along the way.

In the prisoner car, Yuan Shu saw the two approaching, and when he heard them say that the scouts sent out did not find anything abnormal, he hurriedly shouted: "General Zhao, what happened to that matter?" ”

Hearing his shout, Zhao Yun came to him, lowered his voice and said, "What I want is not three taels of copper coins." ”

"How is that possible!" Hearing the turn from Zhao Yun's words, Yuan Shu hurriedly said: "If the general sees it, he will definitely be satisfied." ”

Staring at Yuan Shu, before Zhao Yun could say anything, the soldiers who went to Xia Cai to call the city gate walked back.

"General Qiyu, the gate of Xia Cai City has been opened." The soldier said with his fists clenched.

"Let them close the gates first, we have more important things to do." Zhao Yun gave an order to the soldiers.

The soldier was stunned for a moment, but still responded.

When the soldiers left, Zhao Yun whispered to Deng Zhan and asked, "What are your plans?" ”

"The general is the chief general, and I am only the deputy general." Deng Zhan said: "I listen to the general. ”

"Since General Deng said so, let's go and see?" Zhao Yun asked.

"It's good for the general to call the shots!" Deng Zhan clenched his fists and said.

"General Zhao agreed?" Hearing the two of them say this, Yuan Shu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"I didn't say yes." Zhao Yun said: "There is only one thing I can tell Yuan Gong, which can make me tempted, and I must have enough money to distribute to the soldiers." ”

He approached Yuan Shu, and said in a low voice: "You must know that the soldiers under my command are loyal to the son, and I don't dare to do this kind of thing easily if I don't have enough treasure to buy them." ”

"General Zhao rest assured!" Yuan Shu hurriedly said: "Don't talk about such a few people, even if it is ten times or a hundred times more, it is enough for the generals to distribute it to the soldiers." ”

"So what are you waiting for?" Zhao Yun said: "Please lead the way!" ”
