In the quiet room, the sandalwood brewed in the incense burner wafted around the house for a long time.

Mo Shuyan put his hands under the back of his head, his back was facing the sky, lying on the kang bed, his eyes wandering on the top of the gauze tent, but with a trace of worry, he lay quietly like this, without movement.

This is already the eighth day of returning to Chen Liu, and Cao Cao and the others are busy with conscription training, so they don't have time to deal with Mo Shuyan.

In the first few days, Mo Shuyan, who had a sense of freshness, could still go to the barracks to wander around and see how to train soldiers, and after a few days, the freshness was gone, and he began to live in the room day and night.

However, since yesterday, the feeling of uneasiness in Mo Shuyan's heart has begun to get worse and worse, as if a big mountain is constantly pressing down, and Mo Shuyan almost feels unable to breathe, fortunately, it appears occasionally, otherwise I am afraid that I will not even be able to sleep well.

For Mo Shuyan, most of the changes in the Three Kingdoms period have been well understood, and now that Yuan Shao has lost power, there are many princes, and there will be no war for the time being, and Dong Zhuo has also been sharpened by the princes, and there should be no more action for a while.

With a sigh, Mo Shuyan roughly thought of the reason why he was uneasy, that is, Xu Zisheng, a variable, suddenly joined Dong Zhuo's camp, which caught Mo Shuyan quite off guard, and wanted to deal with Xu Zisheng, but he instantly became out of reach.

Now, not hearing any news about Xu Zisheng is almost equivalent to letting Xu Zisheng melt into the darkness, and he may come out at any time to cause harm to Cao Cao and Mo Shuyan, which Mo Shuyan can't bear.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock at the door, followed by Cao Cao's thick and gentle voice: "Cao has arrived." ”

Hearing this, Mo Shuyan was like a rabbit, jumped up, walked quickly to the door, exhaled lightly, calmed down a little, and then opened the door and welcomed Cao Cao in, and the two walked to the kang mat and sat opposite each other.

Looking at Mo Shuyan's slightly pale face, Cao Cao cast a concerned gaze and asked softly: "Is Yunyi sick and his face is so pale, how about Cao ask the doctor to come and help you diagnose and treat you?" ”

Mo Shuyan was slightly stunned, his heart warmed slightly, and he replied with a smile: "It's not in the way, it's just that I haven't rested well." ”

"That's the best." Cao Cao nodded slightly, thought about it for a while, and asked again: "I don't know why Yunyi invited me to come?" ”

Hearing this, Mo Shuyan did not answer immediately, but picked up the tea, poured it for Cao Cao first, and then poured it for himself, picked up the teaglass, saluted Cao Cao slightly, and raised his head to drink it all.

Then facing Cao Cao's gaze, Mo Shuyan straightened his body and said with a firm look: "Yunyi wants to go to Chang'an, and I hope that the lord will approve it." ”

As soon as the words fell, Cao Cao's hand holding the tea in the air suddenly stopped, splashed a little, and dripped on the desk, and then Cao Cao recovered, took a sip of tea, gently put the tea cup on the desk, stared at Mo Shuyan solemnly, and said nothing.

The two sat opposite each other, motionless, like two statues, and the air seemed to become heavy, and if it weren't for the eyes of the two of them, they would blink slightly from time to time, almost like dead people.

After a long time, Cao Cao took the lead and couldn't help it, sighed deeply, looked at Mo Shuyan with a worried face and said: "The trip to Chang'an is very dangerous, and now I can't send someone to accompany Yunyi to Chang'an, how can I bear to send you to the land of no return!" ”

Hearing this, although Mo Shuyan said that his heart was warm, he still understood that this was because he was extremely important to Cao Cao, but in this era, there is nothing to complain about.

Thinking of this, Mo Shuyan hurriedly got off the kang seat, bowed his head to Cao Cao and said in a deep voice: "If Yunyi doesn't go to Chang'an, I'm afraid it will always be difficult to settle down in my heart, Xu Zisheng's person, the lord should know that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, and sooner or later it will all be destroyed in the hands of Xu Zisheng!" ”

When it comes to Xu Zisheng, Mo Shuyan doesn't believe that Cao Cao will be indifferent, this is Mo Shuyan's hole card that he wants to convince Cao Cao, and he was deeply harmed by Xu Zisheng once, and Cao Cao can't rest assured.

Sure enough, after hearing Xu Zisheng's name, Cao Cao's eyes suddenly became worried, as if confidence was instantly withdrawn from his body.

After sighing for a while, Cao Cao's gaze when he looked at Mo Shuyan again had changed, and he didn't seem to have the intention of stopping Mo Shuyan anymore, he took another sip of tea, and Cao Cao asked softly: "Yunyi, do you really want to go to Chang'an?" ”

"Seriously." Mo Shuyan replied without hesitation.

Hearing this, Cao Cao glanced at Mo Shuyan deeply, did not answer, got up directly and bypassed Mo Shuyan, and left straight away, until his back foot stepped out of the door, and Cao Cao's heavy voice came.

"Yunyi, you go, I will send Zhang Lie to escort you to the vicinity of Chang'an, and the rest is up to you, you must come back safely."

In the room, Mo Shuyan listened to Cao Cao's footsteps in the distance, his eyes were somehow slightly moistened, and his steps seemed to be like lead, unable to move.

For a long time, Mo Shuyan stood in place, looked in the direction of Cao Cao's departure, nodded lightly, and said silently in his heart:

"I'll come back alive!"
