After the night, when Zhuge Liang entered the study in the morning, Yuan Yun immediately laughed, because looking at the other party's complexion, he knew that things were done perfectly.

Zhuge Liang was not polite, he directly chose a position to sit down, and then shook his feather fan and said: "More than 800 thieves, more than 300 were arrested, most of the dead and wounded who escaped, and the most important thing is that we caught Sima Chong on the spot, and at this time, Gongzi Cao Zhang happened to arrive with some clan elders and witnessed everything the whole process." ”

Yuan Yun laughed and said, "I'm afraid Sima Yi is going to be unlucky, I really want to see what his expression is like now?" ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm afraid the lord will be disappointed at this point." ”

Yuan Yun was stunned and wondered: "Could it be that something happened again?" ”

Zhuge Liang replied: "After Sima Yi left yesterday, he immediately packed his luggage, and then withdrew from Yecheng, and walked very quickly, and the documents for customs clearance had already been issued. ”

Yuan Yun instantly frowned and said, "Have our people caught up?" ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and sighed: "Deng Ai's subordinates followed up with five people, but they were all solved by Sima Yi's manpower, and there are still many masters around Sima Yi, otherwise they can deal with Deng Ai's special soldiers."

The place where we found the body was forty miles north of Yecheng, and it seems that Sima Yi fled directly back to Xudu, presumably to seek refuge in Cao Pi. ”

Yuan Yun sneered when he heard this, and said: "This time, Cao Pi can't save Sima Yi, after all, it is Cao Ren who died, and Prime Minister Cao Cheng will not treat him mercifully." ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head again and said: "This is also our mistake, the captured Sima Chong still refuses to recruit anything, which is very tough, and those three hundred thieves who were caught are being rhythmized by Chen Qun at this moment, or the order of Prime Minister Cao Cheng himself, so the evidence for the murder of Cao Ren is still not grasped." ”

Yuan Yun was stunned for a moment, then laughed in an instant, and said, "Let's let go of this matter and don't get involved in it again." ”

Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "The lord is wise, since Prime Minister Cao Cheng has intervened and sent Chen Qun to take over the captured thief army, it proves that he doesn't want to expose this matter, after all, Cao Ren is dead, and Chen Qun is the main strategist of the southern expedition, so he can only close his eyes at this time." ”

Yuan Yun suddenly sneered at this time and said: "Chen Qun's days are not long, I can be very sure of this, Prime Minister Cao Cheng is suppressing this matter now, but it does not mean that it has been revealed, once the southern expedition is successful, Chen Qun's fate will be extremely miserable."

As for Cao Pi, no matter how he tosses in the future, he will have no chance, without the support of Prime Minister Cao Cheng, what will he do to compete with our Luoyang, it seems that we are a great success in Yecheng, and then as long as we marry Cao Jie, we will immediately fight Luoyang. ”

Xiao Liu served the tea at this time, and immediately asked when he heard the words, "Then what should Sima Chong do?" ”

Yuan Yun replied without thinking: "Cut off his two ears and send them to Xu Du to Cao Pi, what Sima Yi did in Yecheng this time, if there is no support from him, it may unfold there, and now Sima Chong's handle is equivalent to falling into our hands, so when to give them a fatal blow, it is up to us to decide."

In addition, send someone to Xu Du Cao Ren's mansion, write down the before and after of this time in detail, and hand it over to his family, with this stubble, I am looking forward to how Cao Pi will get along with Cao Ren's family, Xu Du should be very lively. ”

After explaining this, Yuan Yun happened to see Yang Aruo come in with Qiaoya.

After Yang Aruo hurriedly saluted, he immediately said: "We are going to leave tomorrow to return to Hanzhong Xia Village, so we have come to say goodbye to Yuan Hou." ”

Yuan Yun immediately shook his hand when he heard this: "You have to return with us, after arriving in Luoyang, I will arrange for you to return to Hanzhong through Wancheng, now you go on the road alone, it will definitely not be safe, Sima Yi has lost all the chips this time, and the dog will bite if he is forced to be anxious, not to mention the big living people, so Ah Ruo and the second sister are still safer with us, after all, a thousand gunpowder sergeants, plus Deng Ai's special forces, there is no one in this world who wants to sneak attack us." ”

Yang Aruo was a little stunned when he heard Yuan Yun say this, and only after listening to Zhuge Liang's explanation did he know what had happened in the past two days, so he no longer insisted and decided to return with Yuan Yun.

Yang Aruo's decision must not be for himself, there must be no problem with his high martial arts, the reason why he agreed to Yuan Yun's arrangement is completely for Qiaoya's consideration, so Yuan Yun is also very happy, because Yang Aruo really cares about Qiaoya very much.

The matter of Yecheng was basically settled at this point, and a few days later, Yuan Yun received Deng Ai's information, and the more than 300 captives who were captured were all completely killed because of the fire in the prison.

Hearing this news, Yuan Yun smiled even more happily, because these captives were burned to death, which is equivalent to confirming the fact that they assassinated Cao Ren, how could a demon god-level figure like Cao Cao not know the truth, but from Chen Qun's point of view, he has to treat it like this now, because once interrogated, more than 300 people will definitely be cowardly and will reveal the sneak attack on Cao Ren, so there is no way to set up a killer.

A few days later, the Bian family suddenly invited Yuan Yun to the palace for a banquet, this time not only some relatives of the Cao family participated, but even some nobles around Yecheng, after Sima Chong's incident, these nobles were not stupid, they probably understood what they had experienced, and these people were obviously smart people, for the Cao family's succession, even if some relatives died in the family, they could only choose to keep silent.

Now these nobles already know the general situation, and understand the cause and effect under Cao Zhang's explanation, so the target of hatred has turned to Cao Pi in Xudu, and attending the banquet in the palace on this day is actually to make amends to Yuan Yun in disguise.

After all, they surrounded the Yuan Mansion before, and wronged Yuan Yun as a murderer, which is equivalent to forming a beam, and everyone knows that Yuan Yun is a stingy character, and it is commonplace to repay him, so if you don't come to the trick now, who dares to guarantee that you can withstand the other party's retaliation in the future.

Yuan Yun looked at those gray-haired old men at the banquet, and kept giving him dowries, smiling straight at the tooth and without seeing his eyes, these aristocratic old officials are really a big family, and the treasures they give out are definitely not simple, just the tall coral received two, not to mention countless other horseshoe gold, as well as various colors of silk and satin.

"These people are going to die on weekdays, why do they treat Lang Jun so favorably, my father raised armaments before, and they were never so generous." Cao Jie is now very comfortable pronouncing the word 'Lang Jun', but his face still retains a little redness.

Yuan Yun sat in the huge courtyard of the palace, looking at the mountains of goods piled up in front of him, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but fly, and then suddenly hugged Cao Jie in his arms, and then smiled: "They are afraid, it seems that you can't be too upright and gentlemanly, you see your father in front of them, in order to prove his selflessness and legitimacy, so many things adopt a gentle policy, as a result, these people kick their noses and faces, looking at your brother-in-law...... Uh, look at you and me, I have the title of a wicked person who likes to persecute the clan on weekdays, but these people dare not offend me. ”

Syllable!

Before Yuan Yun could speak, he felt a gust of wind sweep across the back of his head, and as a result, he was slapped hard, and when he turned around, he found that Cao Cao was standing there without anger and self-authority, and the expression on his face was like a real demon king.

After Cao Jie saw his father, his cheeks immediately hung a lot of red glow, shook off Yuan Yun's arms, and ran out of the yard with a smoke, as if he was running.

After Cao Jie ran away, Cao Cao actually gave up the shelf, sat on the steps where Yuan Yun was sitting, and then pointed to a pile of goods in front of him and said, "Do you really think that these nobles are afraid of you?" They just know that you Luoyang is powerful, and almost all the good things in the world are produced there, so they show you like this just to have a better time with Luoyang in the future. ”

Yuan Yun was already on one side at the moment, and after listening to Cao Cao's words, he quickly nodded and said, "What my father-in-law said is that the son-in-law is too proud." ”

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and glanced at Yuan Yun, and then snorted and said: "Don't perform this set with the old man, you don't know how to scold the old man behind your back, now you are pretending to be polite and polite, don't stick there with a pestle, come and sit down next to the old man." ”

Yuan Yun was slightly embarrassed, but he still sat on Cao Cao's side honestly, but he didn't dare to exhale, because he really couldn't guess why Cao Cao came here at this time.

Cao Cao tidied up his robe a little, and saw that Yuan Yun had already sat down, so he continued: "Go back and let Cao Ang pay more attention to his body, as for other things, you don't have to worry too much, as long as you concentrate on dealing with Yizhou and Jingzhou, when the world is unified, after the old man returns to heaven, he can do whatever he wants." ”

Hearing Cao Cao say this, Yuan Yun still trembled involuntarily, and blurted out: "Isn't Uncle Yue planning to ...... on behalf of the sky?"

"Don't say more, although everyone in the world scolds the old man for being a thief, but the old man himself has always claimed to be a Han Chen, and he is still a great loyal minister." Cao Cao said this, suddenly smiled, and then continued: "The old man just wants to make everyone guess, they must think that the old man must have the ambition to stand on his own, and the old man just doesn't do it, and when the old man dies, he is just the identity of Hanchen, which is equivalent to slapping those bastards in the face." ”

Looking at Cao Cao's smug face, it was like a child after a successful prank, Yuan Yun couldn't believe it, because in his understanding, the reason why Cao Cao did not replace Han Tianzi in the original history was entirely because the north and the south were not unified, but at the moment, the possibility of the unification of the north and the south was very high, and as a result, this demon god actually made such a statement.

Cao Cao was very strange that night, he didn't say anything important to Yuan Yun, and he didn't say a word about Luoyang's strategy for Yizhou and Jingzhou, and he was just talking about Cao Jie's marriage throughout the whole process, and he repeatedly explained that once Cao Jie had a child, he had to move his family to live in Yecheng for a long time.

Although Yuan Yun was full of questions, he didn't dare to ask directly, so he could only chat with this old man, and when he talked straight to the bottom of the night, even when Yuan Yun returned to the mansion, he still felt very incredible, because Cao Cao tonight was too much like an ordinary old man.
