There are two theories about Cao Cao's death.

Doctor Hua said that Cao Cao's old illness has not gone, and a new illness has been added, so there is this result.

And the world's number one scholar said that Cao Cao lost his last qi because of the defeat in the battle, so he died.

Liu He didn't know who was right, although judging from the results, both of them could be said to be in the same sentence, but Liu He preferred to believe the first statement.

No one is willing to take the responsibility on their shoulders, Liu He smiled self-deprecatingly, and slowly walked away in the night of Chengdu.

The next day, Liu He made a decision that was difficult for everyone in the Tianji Camp to accept.

Re-enter Xuchang.

The first time he entered Xuchang, he made a big battle to kill 100,000 defenders in front of the imperial city, but that time it was for Qin Shuang, and no one could say anything.

The second time I entered Xuchang, I followed the unreliable world's first god thief to steal the dragon map, and for the sake of rescuing the divine doctor Hua Tuo, the big guy endured it.

The second time I entered Xuchang, it was to promote a tripartite battle, and I still went to do business, and the risk was a little risky, but it was reasonable.

But this time when he re-entered Xuchang, everyone couldn't think of any convincing reasons Liu He could give.

Of course, Liu He won't tell others, he wants to see Cao Cao's illness with his own eyes, and even Liu He is a little uneasy, Cao Pi, who has coveted his father's position for a long time, maybe Cao Cao's illness has something to do with Cao Pi.

Liu He couldn't say the reason, and the brothers naturally wouldn't let Liu He go easily, and several people discussed it, took turns on duty, and watched Liu He's every move day and night, and they must not let him go to Xuchang.

Han Yi also transferred the most elite troops of the 1,000-day machine battalion and surrounded the Tianji Mansion, so that the onlookers thought that there had been a mutiny.

It's a pity that no matter what tricks you come up with, you still can't keep that Mr. Tianji who is full of ideas, as if you can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.

At the critical moment, he still made a great contribution to Liu He's loyal mouse, and walked into Tianji Mansion with a group of Qinglou women.

In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the big mouse also deliberately chose the day when Li Qin was on duty, he had already calculated it, first, Li Qin was on duty, and the others were very relieved, even if they brought a large group of Qinglou women in and out of Tianji Mansion, no one would care too much.

Moreover, Li Qin is a well-known honest person, and when he saw those Qinglou women, he blushed with shame, how could he go forward to check one by one, and Liu He could take advantage of this to get out.

Speaking of this strategy, even Liu He has to admire, the big mouse is not very bright in serious matters, but there are really few thieves in Chengdu who are more thief than him in this crooked and evil way.

Out of Chengdu City, Liu He changed into a casual suit prepared for him in advance by the big mouse, and after categorically rejecting the good idea of the big mouse to accompany him on the road, Liu He waved goodbye to the reluctant to cry the big mouse, and embarked on the road to Xuchang alone.

This time he went to Xuchang, Liu He didn't know if he could catch up with Cao Cao for the last time, so he was non-stop all the way, day and night.

Re-entering Xuchang, Liu He's state of mind was completely different from the previous three times.

Walking on the streets of Xuchang, Liu He didn't know whether this feeling should be called strange or familiar, for this city that was obviously in the same country, but could not enter and exit at will, Liu He always had an indescribable feeling.

I have to admit that under Cao Cao's governance, Xuchang is indeed much more prosperous than other places, and it has some of the majesty of the imperial city, compared with the comfort and tranquility of Chengdu, each has its own merits.

Liu He is a reluctant character, so he naturally likes Chengdu more, at least walking on the street, there will be no officers and soldiers who suddenly block your way and ask questions.

In order not to reveal his identity, Liu He did not stay on the street for a long time, found a tavern, asked for a pot of wine, a few plates of side dishes with wine, and poured himself a drink.

This small shop can be said to be of good quality and low price, but in this flowery Xuchang City, it really seems a little shabby, and finally came to Liu He, a guest who is quite generous, and the shopkeeper is also extremely attentive and enthusiastic.

It seems that the shopkeeper is also a person who loves to chat, and after a few words, the two chatted together, and there were no other customers in the store, so Liu He beckoned the shopkeeper to sit down and have a drink together.

The shopkeeper hesitated for a long time, and finally sat opposite Liu He, but looking at the full glass of wine handed by Liu He, he waved his hand again and again, "The small one is the shopkeeper here, and you sit at the same table with the guest officer, it is already rude, how can you drink your wine again." ”

Liu He smiled, but he didn't insist, there are rules in a place, if the shopkeeper drinks this glass of wine, how can he be embarrassed to accept the wine money for a while?

Liu He drank a glass by himself, put the wine glass down, and asked: "Shopkeeper, I am from a foreign country, and I am not very familiar with this place, why are there so many officers and soldiers patrolling this Xuchang City?" ”

The shopkeeper looked around vigilantly, leaned over and whispered, "You don't know yet, guest officer?" Prime Minister Cao Cheng is seriously ill, and I heard that it has been only a few days. ”

Liu He was a little surprised, the shopkeeper of a tavern knew so clearly about this matter, he thought about it, deliberately made a disdainful look, and said: "No matter how you say it, he Cao Cao is just a prime minister, he is dead, and the prime minister's seat is not the turn of his sons to sit, such a big battle, how can it seem that the emperor is going to die." ”

The shopkeeper was shocked when he heard this, and immediately pounced, wanting to reach out to cover Liu He's mouth, but he didn't dare to make a move, and said again and again: "This guest officer, the little one, please, be quiet, if the officers and soldiers hear it, the life of the little family will be gone!" ”

Liu He took out a gold bar from his arms, handed it to the shopkeeper, and said with a smile: "Can I say it now?" ”

The shopkeeper held the gold bar in his hand, his eyes were straight, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the gold bar was extremely hot, and he was embarrassed for a long time, so he put the gold bar into his arms, "Yes, you can say whatever you like, but the small one please, but you must be quiet, otherwise this gold bar, the small one has a life to take and has no life to spend." ”

Liu He nodded with a smile and said softly: "I want to know, who are these officers and soldiers under their orders, is it Cao Cao, or is it his son Cao Pi?" ”

"No, it's a soldier under the third prince."

Liu He frowned when he heard this, "Third son? Cao Zhang? Isn't he in Xuchang? ”
