Cao Cao, who went out of Chang'an, finally had to give up and return because Xu Zisheng gave up attacking Jingzhou and collected his troops and returned, anyway, the goal has been achieved.

As soon as he walked halfway, he got the news from Yu Ban, Cao Cao ordered the team to return to Xuchang on his own, and rushed back to Xuchang City with a small team of cronies alone.

"Thank you for everything you have done for me." Mo Shuyan thanked him.

"It's all right, it's all as it should be."

Cao Cao didn't feel too much joy when he received this gift, and there was still a little indebtedness on his face, and he said in a deep voice: "But Mr. wants to forgive me for giving Cai Yan to Zhao Yun in marriage." ”

Hearing this, Mo Shuyan shook his head, as if he had thought of Cai Yan's current life, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "Maybe the current life is what Zhao Ji wants, at least every day without worrying, you can live a peaceful and stable life." ”

"This is also the reason why I didn't send Zilong with me, Mrs. Zhao is pregnant, so it's better to let Zilong take care of her in the house." Cao Cao said softly.

Hearing this, Mo Shuyan secretly looked at Cao Cao, he didn't expect his lord to be so hearted, and he didn't care about that self-righteous generation of heroes, at least for his subordinates, Cao Cao still cared about it very much, no wonder today, none of the eight generals have any objections, and it is estimated that they all have some approval of Cao Cao, as long as Cao Cao is not the emperor, the eight generals will not have too many objections.

"This trip, there are no results, right?" Mo Shuyan asked.

Seeing that Cao Cao returned so quickly, Mo Shuyan expected that Xu Zisheng was afraid again, since the last time Yuan Shu's soldiers made a dangerous move and broke through Chang'an, Xu Zisheng's courage was much smaller, and he paid more attention to protecting himself than taking risks.

"At the moment, there is a slight stalemate, and it is difficult to get results, which is also deserved."

Cao Cao was very calm, it seemed that these were all in his expectation, and the curiosity in his eyes was also because of Mo Shuyan, and then Cao Cao asked with interest: "I heard Wen Ze say that what Liu Xuande did last time was planned by Mr.?" ”

"I didn't want Xu Zisheng to dominate." Mo Shuyan sneered.

"But after all, it did me a great favor unintentionally."

Cao Cao's eyes lit up slightly, and he couldn't help laughing, between such a mistake, it seemed that Mo Shuyan was still giving him advice, if there was no Mo Shuyan's help, maybe Xuchang would be destroyed in an instant, and the best result would be to pay a heavy price and shift his position.

"I wonder what Mr. is planning to do recently?" Cao Cao asked suddenly.

Compared with the past, Cao Cao is more concerned about what Mo Shuyan will do in the future, just following the direction of Xuchang City, Yu Ban has already told Cao Cao about the general situation, now Mo Shuyan is on the side, and he is mainly engaged in medical skills, it is very likely that he will go into hiding, and maybe, this must be determined first.

Since the last time Xun Yu concealed the letter and did not report the letter, Cao Cao has been wary of Xun Yu, basically did not take Xun Yu out to fight, and only Cheng Yu is available in his hand, and it is always a little difficult to make a decision when encountering things, and now that Mo Shuyan has returned, Cao Cao's mind is naturally active.

"Xu Zisheng is not dead, I will never go into hiding."

Mo Shuyan's eyes flashed with cold light, Xu Zisheng's actions have touched Mo Shuyan's bottom line, not to mention that Xu Zisheng's influence on this era is too great, Mo Shuyan can't jump Xu Zisheng what he wants to do, so he must completely eradicate Xu Zisheng in order to do the great cause of unification that Mo Shuyan needs in his heart.

Thousands of years of history have proved that only the unification of the world can reduce wars and restore peace, and when the world falls apart, it is the beginning of the misery of the people, and if you want to end the war in the Three Kingdoms era, you must try to find ways to achieve the current pattern of partition.

"Mr. is righteous, I would like to ask Mr. to take the post of Metropolitan Governor, personally lead the three armies, and conquer Xu Zisheng." Cao Cao said ecstatically.

"No, I don't want to get into infighting anymore." Mo Shuyan did not hesitate to reject Cao Cao's proposal.

"Why?"

Cao Cao was immediately anxious, and asked eagerly: "Could it be that Mr. still cares about the past and doesn't want to help me?" ”

"Definitely."

Mo Shuyan denied this statement, and then said solemnly: "Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, I have suffered many lessons in the past, and now, I am more inclined to hide in the shadows and give advice, not to mention, it is not yet the time to let Xu Zisheng know that I am still alive." ”

Hearing Mo Shuyan say this, Cao Cao will be much more relieved, the bright and dark places are not far behind, as long as Mo Shuyan is willing to help.

Seeing Cao Cao's happy face, Mo Shuyan mentioned in a timely manner: "If Xun Wenruo is also a usable talent, the lord must not use it because of me, and waste a talented person in vain, isn't it a pity?" ”

From the time when Yu Ban told Xun Yu that he was in Xuchang City, Mo Shuyan knew that Xun Yu had been suspicious of Cao Cao because of the letter and could not be reused.

Hearing this, Cao Cao was a little surprised, he didn't expect Mo Shuyan to be more open than him, and suddenly said with a smile: "Since Mr. doesn't care, if I abandon it again, wouldn't it be a small belly?" ”

"The lord understands the righteousness, even if I don't say it, one day, I will reuse it."

"Perhaps."

Cao Cao couldn't deny that he would have this idea in his heart, and when no one was available, he would still think of Xun Yu, but he also wanted to ban it, and was curious about how Mo Shuyan persuaded Xun Yu, so he couldn't help but ask: "What did Mr. and Wen Ruo talk about?" So much so that they had a great conversation. ”

Yu Ban also pricked up his ears, expecting that Mo Shuyan would tell Cao Cao if he didn't tell him, but now he could solve the doubts in his heart.

However, what I didn't expect was that Mo Shuyan still came: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed." ”

Immediately, Cao Cao and Mo Shuyan looked at each other and smiled, and then talked about the recent situation of various forces, as well as the current situation in Xuchang City.

After the conversation, it was already night inadvertently, taking advantage of the night, Cao Cao said goodbye to Mo Shuyan, and returned to Xuchang City with Yu Ban, and soon, the army was going to return, and Cao Cao, as the prime minister, naturally wanted to return to Xuchang City and preside over the overall situation.

Now that everything has been said, Cao Cao is not in a hurry, and in a short time, there will be no battle, so naturally there is no need to trouble Mo Shuyan, after all, Mo Shuyan has decided to hide in the shadows now, and he can't go to Mo Shuyan to discuss anything.

Therefore, Cao Cao agreed with Mo Shuyan that only for major events, Cao Cao would come to Mo Shuyan to discuss, and the rest of the time, he would try to disturb Mo Shuyan as little as possible, after all, Mo Shuyan is also a family person now, and he still needs some space to live, which is also Mo Shuyan's neutralization method, so as not to snub Huayan and Qiao Wan.

As for Xun Yu, Cao Cao returned to Xuchang City, so he reinstated him as an official, and once again became Cao Cao's right-hand man, helping Cao Cao deal with all affairs, secretly, Cao Cao also revealed to Xun Yu that this was the result of Mo Shuyan's intercession for him, since Xun Yu was a little grateful to Mo Shuyan, and there was no longer the slightest jealousy.
