As soon as the banquet requested by Xu Chu was opened, the side courtyard where Yuan Yun of the palace lived was suddenly very lively, except for Xu Chu, Xiahoudun, and Cheng Yu, soon generals such as Le Jin and Cao Zhen rushed over after hearing the news.

So this banquet immediately began to sublimate, halfway through the process, Xu Chu even instructed his entourage to call the singer of the largest green building in the city, so that the banquet was even more lively at the back, the singer and the dancing girl kept shuttling in the courtyard, Xu Chu These generals in addition to their own come, but also brought a lot of partial generals and deputies, causing this partial courtyard to immediately appear a lot narrower.

Yuan Yun didn't expect that there would be such a big pomp, almost all the military leaders and faces have appeared now, and under the influence of Cheng Yu, some civilian strategists also ran over, so that the people of both the civil and military sides gathered in one courtyard, which is also a rare scene.

Seeing Xu Chu jumping on the table and singing loudly, and then shouting at his subordinates to follow suit, and then seeing Cheng Yu and a green-robed scribe tasting wine and arguing, Yuan Yun not only smiled at the corner of his mouth, but also felt warm in his heart, because these people in front of him came to him to have fun, but they were just sending a signal, that is, they all supported Yuan Yun very much.

And the reason why he behaved like this was because in this world celebration ceremony, his Yuan Yun's fame was all erased, and he was still a marquis, and this result was exactly what Yuan Yun himself requested, but these people in front of him didn't understand, they just thought in their hearts that Yuan Yun was treated unfairly.

This banquet went straight until midnight, and I don't know how much food such as wine and meat was delivered, which caused Cao Cao, the cooks in the palace, to be almost busy here.

A banquet of this scale naturally can't escape Cao Cao, so after the sky gradually darkened, this Yuan Yun's old man finally appeared, followed by Cao Ang, as for Sima Yi, who Yuan Yun wanted to see, he didn't appear, thinking that he still had some self-knowledge, knowing that if he appeared at this time, he would only be pinched to death by those military generals who supported Yuan Yun, after all, if you want a person like Xu Chu, if you are impulsive, it is a slap in the face, and you can understand people like Sima Yi.

After Cao Cao came, the banquet immediately turned lively and quiet, even Xu Chu was not too embarrassed to continue to dance his magic dance on the table, and Cheng Yu and some other scribes also sat up and stood on one side.

Yuan Yun greeted him directly to the door, and he was constantly thinking about how to explain to this old man, but what he didn't expect was that Cao Cao seemed to be very happy, and after giving an order, he took the lead in entering the side courtyard, and then naturally sat at Xu Chu's table, without a little shelf at all, so soon the banquet was lively again.

Cao Ang had been with Yuan Yun at this time, and when Cao Cao went to Xu Chu's table, he smiled bitterly at Yuan Yun: "These uncles and uncles seem to think that we treat Brother Yun poorly. ”

Yuan Yun smiled and said: "During the Southern Expedition, I was indeed very willful in many aspects, and all my merits were cancelled, which can be regarded as deserved, and I also took a big advantage, so as not to assign me some things to do, but I will be tired to death." ”

Cao Ang also followed Yuan Yun and smiled, and said: "Brother Yun is just too lazy, in fact, after the victory of this Southern Expedition, even if you are crowned a duke, it is enough, but you don't like it, and now it makes these people unhappy." ”

Yuan Yun heard Cao Ang say this, shook his head and said: "Don't be a duke, I think the marquis is enough, no matter how you say it, you are a nobleman, and then I can't sit still, so the prince doesn't need to comfort me, I really don't want those credits, and now I just want to eat in Luoyang and wait for death." ”

Cao Ang saw that Yuan Yun didn't look like he was lying at all, and he had this kind of character in the past, and it was not the first time that he had said the idea of eating and waiting for death.

"Father is most dissatisfied with your idea of eating and waiting for death, so don't talk nonsense when you meet you, I can't save you if you are punished." Cao Ang said another word, then walked aside, and then greeted Cheng Yu, Cao Ang preferred to sit with these scribes rather than military generals.

Yuan Yun became a person again at this time, and was about to find a table to sit down casually, when he saw that Cao Cao was already waving at him, looking at this old man with a kind face at the moment, Yuan Yun could only sigh secretly, and then walked over hard.

Cao Cao saw Yuan Yun arrive at the table, so he pointed at Yuan Yun, and then smiled at the subordinates around him, and said: "You see, this is already a national candidate, but it still doesn't pay attention to etiquette at all, this courtyard is full of tables, but there is no priority at all, there is not even a main seat, it looks like those barbarians outside the fortress." ”

Cao Cao's voice fell, and he heard Xu Chu smile and said: "It's so lively, and no one would have thought that the lord would come today, so he is so unparticular, if Yuan Xiaozi puts on a score to make a main seat, I Xu Chu doesn't want to sit in his lower position." ”

Cao Cao heard Xu Chu say this, so he could only nod and said: "Since the tiger idiot said so, then let's make a scene, come here, go and dig out the osmanthus brew hidden by the old man, how can we have a good time today." ”

Cao Cao's words came out, Xu Chu and the others immediately shouted loudly, looking very happy, only Yuan Yun pursed his lips, because those osmanthus brews were snatched by Cao Cao from Yuan's mansion back then, but now they are taken out as favors, and they are unlucky.

Originally, he thought that Cao Cao would come to the banquet and would definitely find himself for a private chat, but Yuan Yun's idea was just an idea in the end, Cao Cao didn't say anything, and after the banquet dispersed at midnight, he also returned to his bedroom.

It wasn't until dawn the next day that Yuan Yun received the news that he was free to leave and didn't need to stay in the palace any longer.

And today is the day of the celebration ceremony, the whole Yecheng has become extremely lively, almost everyone has poured into the streets, ready to watch a grand performance, everyone knows very well, what the world Taiping represents, so even the street scoundrels, have put down the two or three things in their hands, and then go to the army that is entering the city to be reviewed.

Yuan Yun didn't want to go to the street at this time, he didn't have much interest in this grand ceremony, now he just wanted to end the matter in Yecheng quickly, and then return to Luoyang as soon as possible, and then go to enjoy his life as a marquis.

When Yuan Yun was about to pack up and leave Cao Cao's palace, he suddenly received a message from the Bian family, only saying that he wanted to see him in the back house, for this request, Yuan Yun seemed a little embarrassed, after all, Cao Cao is now the king, and his mansion has also become a palace, and the palace naturally has the rules of the palace, and it is no longer like the Cao Mansion in the past, you can let yourself go in and out.

When Yuan Yun was entangled and hesitating, Bian's personal maid appeared, and then led the young marquis to start walking towards the inner house, without giving Yuan Yun a chance to refuse.

When he arrived at the courtyard of the Bian family in the inner courtyard of the palace, Yuan Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief, perhaps because the Bian family often had to take care of Cao Cao in official business, so his courtyard was next to Cao Cao's study, that is, Cao Cao's usual enemy who handled government affairs, and at this moment, a large number of officials were queuing up around the courtyard to prepare for Cao Cao's reception, so even if Yuan Yun appeared here, he didn't feel anything wrong.

When Bian saw Yuan Yun, he just nodded, and then said weakly: "My tone has always been bad lately, and it seems that I won't live long." ”

When Yuan Yun heard Bian's words, he could only smile bitterly, then shook his head and sighed: "If Aunt Bian has anything to say, just say it directly, you must live a long life, so the topic of what life span is exempt." ”

Bian glared at Yuan Yun very unhappily, feeling that she was still a little unhappy to be exposed in person, but immediately she was suddenly happy, and then ordered Yuan Yun to sit down, and then said: "You keep Cao Pi safe and return to Yecheng, Aunt Bian owes you a favor, but although this person is saved, how will you deal with it in the future?" I don't believe you and Cao Ang haven't discussed this matter, what do you plan to do with Pi'er in the future? ”

Yuan Yun said in his heart, Bian's family is in disguise, I hope that he Yuan Yun will give a guarantee to ensure Cao Pi's comfort in the future, and now Cao Ang's succession to the throne is a sure thing, so as Cao Pi's biological mother, there is no reason to worry that her son will be harmed.

sighed deeply again, and Yuan Yun replied: "As long as Cao Pi gives up his ambitions, he will enjoy himself from now on, and promise that nothing will happen, which Aunt Bian should also know very well." ”

Bian's brows furrowed when he heard this, and he stared at Yuan Yun and said, "I hope that our Yuan Hou will give a guarantee." ”

Yuan Yun heard Bian say this, so he could only shake his head again and sigh: "Aunt Bian, you should also know very well that I myself am also suspicious of Prime Minister Cao Cheng, even if I can protect myself, even if I am very satisfied, where can I have the ability to take care of Cao Pi?" ”

Bian seemed to have a different opinion, so he smiled mysteriously and said: "Do you think that Prime Minister Cao Cheng has been targeting you and tell you, if it is decided today, the person that Prime Minister Cao Cheng wants to watch is not only you Yuan Yun, if you really suspect you, I am afraid that your Yuan family would have been unlucky a long time ago, and now it is just the most normal means to be so dike, do you know what Prime Minister Cao Cheng said to Cao Ang a few days ago?" ”

Yuan Yun was immediately interested when he heard this, but now was not the time to answer, so he continued to remain silent and waited for Bian to continue.

Seeing Yuan Yun looking at him and knowing that the other party was interested, Bian nodded with satisfaction and said: "Prime Minister Cao Cheng told Cao Ang that once he is a hundred years later, he can completely follow Cao Ang's own decision on what to do in this world, and at that time he will inevitably be subject to certain resistance, and to eliminate these resistances, the only one who can rely on you Yuan Yun is alone, and if you change anyone else, there will be more or less scraping of family and interests, only you Yuan Yun is the most independent, plus you and Cao's many bonds, you are naturally Cao Ang's right-hand man." ”

When Yuan Yun heard this, the whole person was not good, since Cao Cao trusted him Yuan Yun so much, why did he have to be embankment everywhere? It's simply a contradiction inside and out.

Seeing that Yuan Yun was puzzled, Bian Shi didn't explain much, but continued to say lightly: "Prime Minister Cao is like this, he can not only use people without suspicion, but also guard against people everywhere, which may seem very contradictory, but it is also the key to your Cao Cheng Prime Minister being undefeated now."

In short, you Yuan Yun will inevitably be reused by Cao Ang in the future, so I will ask you for a guarantee, that is, to ensure that Cao Pi can live his life in peace in the days to come, and he will definitely not be harmed in any way. ”

Yuan Yun was still in a half-understanding, and he was even more confused about Cao Cao's personality, and when he heard Bian's mention of Cao Pi again, he could only give up his hand and say: "If Cao Pi puts down his ambition and waits for death with peace of mind, I, Yuan Yun, will naturally try my best to ensure his safety, this is the biggest guarantee I can make, is Aunt Bian satisfied?" ”

Bian naturally knew that many things could not be decided by Yuan Yun alone, and he was actually satisfied to get such a guarantee at this moment, so he quickly accepted it.

When Yuan Yun was about to say goodbye and leave, Bian said again: "After I am a hundred years old, I hope that Cao Pi can move to Luoyang to live, and Yuan Hou will definitely take care of him at that time." ”

Yuan Yun began to have a headache again.
