Chapter 229: Refusal
Xuchang, in a remote courtyard.
Hua Tuo helped Zhao Yun to sit down on the stone bench in the courtyard, although Zhao Yun woke up from a coma, his body was still a little weak, and he could only barely walk with the help of others, and his face was not too much blood because of excessive blood loss.
Now Zhao Yun still needs to recuperate, so Cao Cao also arranged for him to live in a remote courtyard here, and Hua Tuo will take care of him day and night.
However, when he heard that Zhao Yun could already go to the ground, Cao Cao had already sent news that he was about to come to meet Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun, who learned the news, asked Hua Tuo to help him come to the courtyard and wait.
"Thank you to Dr. Hua for taking care of me these days, I haven't thanked Dr. Hua for saving me, and I hope Dr. Hua will kneel down to me today."
Enduring the weakness of his body, Zhao Yun wanted to get up and kneel on one knee, but was pulled by Hua Tuo and pressed back to the stone bench.
"The body is weak like this, what is strong, wait for the wound to open, and it won't trouble me again."
Hua Tuo angrily reprimanded Zhao Yunlai, and then comforted: "Although I was forced by that Cao Mengde to come to treat you, I have also known you Zhao Zilong with other people these days, which is very suitable for my temper, so I am willing to rescue, I don't need to be too grateful, and recuperating my injuries is the greatest help for me." ”
"I will fully cooperate with Dr. Huashen's diagnosis and treatment." Zhao Yun smiled gratefully.
"You kid, even if you have a big life, otherwise even I won't be able to return to the sky." Doctor Hua Shen sighed quite seriously.
"Maybe I'm going to die."
"Hard-hitting? If it weren't for me, look at how hard your life is. ”
"Ahahahaha." Zhao Yun laughed a little bewildered.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, it turned out that Cao Cao came with Ma Chao and Xu Huang, as soon as he entered the courtyard, Cao Cao smiled and quipped: "It seems that General Zhao Zilong is recovering well, and the laughter containing vitality can be heard from afar." ”
"The general is coming, and Shu Zilong is far away."
As Zhao Yun spoke, he wanted to get up and salute, but Cao Cao hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said softly: "The injury has not healed, it is better to move less, these false courtesies, you don't have to take them to heart." ”
"Thank you for your understanding."
Zhao Yun always had some resistance to Cao Cao in his heart, after all, after hearing what Hua Tuo said, the current Cao Cao is also in power, as if he was coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, which is almost no different from Xu Zisheng, but the current situation does not allow Zhao Yun to leave, so he can only stay here temporarily to recuperate.
"Zilong is a little out of sight like this, Meng Qi and Gongming, when they heard that you were able to get up, they were all in a hurry to come to see you, so I brought them over, hoping that it didn't disturb your recuperation." Cao Cao introduced Ma Chao and Xu Huang, and he stood aside.
"It turned out to be you."
Zhao Yun saw Ma Chao and Xu Huang, his eyes were full of gratitude, and he said with some joy: "If it weren't for the two rescuers, maybe Zilong would have died in the battle, if there is a need for Zilong in the future, as long as it doesn't go against his heart, he will definitely try his best to help." ”
"That's enough."
Ma Chao stepped forward with a smile and patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder, then looked at Xu Huang and said: "Gongming and I, we are still waiting for you to recover, and then we will fight with you. ”
"Then I won't keep my hand." Zhao Yun said seriously.
"Gongming, we have been underestimated, do you want to clean up?" Ma Chao asked angrily.
"Do it now." Xu Huang replied in a muffled voice.
"You won't take advantage of others." Zhao Yun said with a smile.
Hearing this, everyone laughed, as if they were infected by this atmosphere, and a heartfelt smile also appeared on Zhao Yun's sick face.
"Okay, I want to make an appointment, wait for Zilong to recover, you guys stand down for the time being, I want to talk to Zilong." Cao Cao commanded.
"No."
Ma Chao and Xu Huang nodded at Zhao Yun and turned around to leave directly, Hua Tuo glanced at Zhao Yun and followed Ma Chao and the two left, but Hua Tuo stayed outside the courtyard, after all, Hua Tuo also lived in this courtyard, and he still needed to take care of Zhao Yun, so he couldn't leave at all, so he could only avoid it for the time being.
After the others left, Cao Cao sat down very casually, looked at Zhao Yun with a smile on his face and said, "I heard that you are dissatisfied with Xu Zisheng's lack of willingness to support the Han family, so you asked to leave." ”
Hearing this, Zhao Yun's face became a little gloomy, and Cao Cao hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean to investigate you, after all, you were also Xu Zisheng's subordinate, and when you came here, you still have to know about it." ”
"I understand." Zhao Yun nodded back.
"That's good."
Cao Cao's smile was even worse, staring at Zhao Yun's eyes, and asked solemnly: "I don't know if Zilong thinks that I am superior to Xu Zisheng?" ”
"The general has something to say, why should he insinuate the old master." Zhao Yun said calmly.
"But I was reckless."
Cao Cao, who was apologetic, no longer beat around the bush, and said bluntly: "If Zi is on the side today, the responsibility of reviving the Han family is to press on himself, I want Zilong to help me, I don't know if it's possible?" ”
"Then do I respect the Son of Heaven as the Lord, or do I respect the Great General as the Lord?" Zhao Yun replied indifferently.
As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao's face suddenly became cloudy, but soon returned to normal, and then Cao Cao said with a smile: "Naturally, we respect the Son of Heaven as the Lord, and we are all Hanchen, how can we dominate the guests?" ”
Hearing this, Zhao Yun stared at Cao Cao for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking, and finally said plainly: "I am willing to help the general, but I have no plans for the time being, and I hope the general will forgive me." ”
"It's okay, it's not easy to have Zilong to help, and I hope Zilong can recuperate with peace of mind, come back as soon as possible, and help the Han family." Cao Cao's face did not change and responded.
"Thank you for your understanding, General."
Cao Cao nodded, didn't plan to say anything more, asked Zhao Yun again, and after letting Zhao Yun recover from his injuries, he said goodbye and left, and Zhao Yun didn't stay.
After Cao Cao left, Hua Tuo walked in again, shook his head and said, "I see Cao Mengde's face is different, it seems that he didn't get the result he wanted. ”
"Now I can't see Cao Cao's true face, I have been wrong once, this time, I want to find a master, do my best." Zhao Yun sighed lightly.
"Lord Ming?"
Hua Tuo shook his head again, and said with some emotion: "The world is changeable, and it is difficult to find the master, who knows, after getting the power, will the master still be able to stick to his heart?" ”
"People's hearts are unpredictable after all, and it is enough to be yourself."
"Maybe."
