Xuchang is located in the central part of Henan, with convenient transportation and good water resources. The modern Xuchang City is the tobacco distribution center of the surrounding areas, and the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway Line runs through Xuchang City in a north-south direction, with wheat and corn as the main crops, and tobacco as the main cash crops. Places of interest and historic sites, there are small West Lake, civilization temple tower, Spring and Autumn Tower, Baling Bridge and so on.

However, at this point in time, Lu Ren is far from the modern Xuchang City. To be precise, Xu County in the late Han Dynasty could only be regarded as a relatively wealthy county, and its county seat was just a relatively better county. If you really want to compare with big cities like Luoyang and Chang'an, the county seat of Xuxian County is not a little worse.

The main reason why it was later included in the list of large towns was the expansion of Xu County by Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty after the relocation of the capital. As the capital of an empire, it can't be said that it doesn't look like a capital city, right? Besides, Xu County is the military, political and economic center selected by Cao Cao during this period, what kind of work can you do well?

Lu Ren led the team at that time deliberately slowed down, but Cao Ren and Cao Hong had to rush to Xu County day and night after taking over, so Lu Ren and Cao Ang's group failed to catch up with Cao Ren and Cao Hong's team, and then the more than 100 horsemen went directly to Xu County.

Before entering the county seat, Lu Ren found that there were many craftsmen outside the city who were surveying the foundation, and they seemed very busy. Lu Ren understood that this was Cao Cao doing the work of expanding the county seat of Xuxian. If you ask someone again, you will know that Cao Cao is only in Xu County, where he arrived with Emperor Han Xian more than ten days ago. Lu Ren and Cao Cao are just front and back.

The imperial palace is not something that can be built, so Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is now temporarily residing in Cao Cao's garden in Xu County. The so-called Xingyuan, to put it bluntly, is a more advanced post house, if it is put on the modern society, it is just the level of a three-star hotel, and the presidential suite is not to think about it.

However, for Emperor Han Xian, who has been displaced for a long time, it is already quite good to have such an environment, in other words, it is like a person named Huazi suddenly lived in a big hotel, how can there be anything dissatisfied? However, it seems that in modern society, there are really many beggars who call flowers on the street during the day and stay in big hotels at night......

Cao Cao gave his garden to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and some good houses in the county town were also given to the officials of the Han court. It's just that this matter is of course indifferent to Cao Cao, who has lived frugally all his life and is often in the army, but Lu Ren was a little difficult after receiving the news. It's nothing else, now Lu Ren can follow Cai Yan by his side.

It should be nice to have a beautiful woman around, but it depends on what the situation is. If it was Wan'er who was following Lu Ren now, Lu Ren could find a place to set up camp at will, but it would be really inconvenient to follow Cai Yan. Who is Cai Yan? Cai Yong is an orphan, and his identity and name are very sensitive, and the relationship between Lu Ren and Cai Yan is also very delicate and embarrassing.

If it's just that his team of people arrived in the wilderness, but it was really difficult to settle down when they got to the ground, then Lu Ren would be sprayed to death by other people's saliva in the future, not to mention that Xu County is now full of Han court officials, and these people have the ability to find trouble when they are full, Lu Ren knows how powerful they are just by looking at those historical records.

Therefore, Lu Ren planned to find Cao Cao as soon as he arrived in Xu County, and then threw Cai Yan to Cao Cao, and he hurried back to Puyang to continue to be his Puyang order, so as not to cause himself some unnecessary trouble. As a man, it would be false to say that Lu Ren didn't want to engage in Cai Yan, but his own safety is definitely much more important than that of women.

Want to engage Cai Yan? Yes! But the first is not to be known by others, and the second is that after doing it, you have to kill people and kill people, otherwise it will leak out...... Hmph, according to the current situation, Lu Ren can know what his fate will be even if he thinks with his toes.

Therefore, although he was a little reluctant and felt a little pity, Lu Ren still felt that it was a wiser choice to throw Cai Da Beauty to Cao Cao now. Maybe Cao Cao will mess with Cai Yan, but that's much better than throwing Cai Yan to the Huns, right? Moreover, although Cao Cao is lustful, few people will notice that Cao Cao is a person who respects women, and he has never been upset in his life, and Mrs. Ding is an example.

Although in this matter, there are reasons why Cao Cao feels that he owes Mrs. Ding, but a peerless traitor can do this, at least it shows that Cao Cao still has some humanity in these matters. So for Cai Yan, Cai Yong's orphan, no matter how you say it, it won't be any worse. Compared with Cai Yan's fate in the original history, Lu Ren always felt that this was worthy of Cai Yan.

But now that Cao Cao is living in the barracks, Lu Ren always feels that this taste is a little wrong when he takes Cai Yan over. But when I arrived in Xu County, I couldn't say it if I didn't go to see Cao Cao. After thinking about it back and forth, Lu Ren discussed with Cao Ang, planning to place Cai Yan in which post house first, and then go to see Cao Cao.

But now the post house in the county seat of Xu County is really not so easy to find. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty brought such a large group of people over, either officials or Qing, Cao Cao had to go to live in the military camp, so the situation in the county seat of Xu County can be imagined.

Finally, Lu Ren finally found a private inn that was okay, and he could settle Cai Yan for a while. It's just that when Lu Ren just threw Cai Yan into the guest room and was about to go to see Cao Cao, Cai Yan called Lu Ren and asked with a complicated mood: "You, where are you going?" ”

Cai Yan has been hiding in the carriage all the way and has not said a word to anyone. Why is it like this, of course Lu Ren knows it in his heart, so he is very interested and knowledgeable and never bothered Cai Yan again. Now seeing that Cai Yan finally spoke to himself, but with such a demeanor, Lu Ren could only sigh lightly and said: "Originally, I was going back to Puyang, but now I have arrived in Xu County, of course I have to go to meet Cao Gong and explain the reason for this." By the way, you have to really settle down. ”

Cai Yan lowered his head and was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Don't be so troublesome. Just send me back to Chenliu when it's almost time......"

Probably remembering what happened before, Cai Yan hurriedly raised his head and explained to Lu Ren: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that before. I mean, my Cai clan is in Chenliu, you can send me ** to the middle school when the time is right. ”

Lu Renfu sighed again and shook his head again: "Miss Cai, you are really deep in the boudoir and don't know what is going on outside the window. You may not believe what I say, so you might as well go out and find someone to ask what Chen Liu's current appearance is. ”

Cai Yan was stunned and asked urgently, "How is Chen Liu?" ”

Lu Ren said: "When I entered the city, I inquired, Yang Feng, that bastard, led the Huns into the Central Plains, burned and looted everywhere around Liangdi, and the people of the clans in the surrounding areas were already scattered and fled. If your Chen Liucai clan has a foundation, can you defeat thousands of Hun thieves and thieves? To put it too far, Chen Liu is probably already a scorched earth now. ”

This is not Lu Ren's nonsense, it is really the news that Lu Ren heard after entering the county seat of Xu County. And Cai Yan was stunned after hearing the news, because for Cai Yan, it was basically equivalent to her family was ruined and she had no place to stay.

Seeing that Cai Yan was staying there, Lu Ren sighed again and said, "So I have to go and find a place for you to rely on." But don't worry, now that the Son of Heaven has promised, there are many old people with Ling Zun among the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and there will always be someone who will be willing to take care of you. ”

Cai Yan nodded blankly, and watched Lu Ren leave. Several times, Cai Yan wanted to call Lu Ren again, but after all, he still didn't speak, and his gaze at Lu Ren was extremely complicated.

――――――――――――――――――――

In the military camp outside the county seat of Xu County.

"Yoshiho? Zixiu? Shouldn't you turn back to Puyang? Why did you come to Xu County again? ”

At this time, Cao Cao was dressed in civilian clothes, and he was discussing what to do next with a group of staff members in the big tent of the Chinese army, when he suddenly heard a report that Lu Ren and Cao Ang had arrived in Xu County, which was somewhat unexpected.

And after Lu Ren and Cao Ang confessed their crimes, they told them what happened when they passed through Chen Liu, and Cao Cao couldn't blame these two for this. After all, from the situation at that time, they ran into the Hun soldiers from Yang Feng and had no way to cross the river, and they belonged to Xu County, which was forced by the situation. Taking a step back, they originally wanted to send grain and grass to Xu County, but after the handover, they wanted to go back to Puyang in advance, and their own tasks had been completed.

Moreover, no matter how Cao Cao is, he will have a little mind to protect Cao Ang, a little calf, and now seeing that the two of them are not at fault, he hurriedly slapped the table and changed the topic: "Yang Fengzhuzi!" actually colluded with the Huns, intending to hijack the Son of Heaven! Destroy it! ”

Lu Renxin said that it's strange that your old Cao will not beat Yang Feng! According to the original history, Cao Cao went to fight Yang Feng in October of the first year of Jian'an, and according to the current situation, your old Cao may immediately send troops over, after all, Chen Liu has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, and now it is your old Cao's territory, how can you not ask?

At this time, Cao Cao's gaze drifted to Lu Ren again, and he nodded lightly and said, "After the Son of Heaven has promised to be revived, it is the time to employ people." Yihao, now that you have arrived, you don't have to go back to Puyang. After discussing with the ministers in the past few days, Gu is planning to transfer you from Puyang to Xu County. ”

Lu Renxin said, it seems that he can't run away from the matter of Xuchang Tuntian. And Xuchang Tuntian is a formal and large-scale Tuntian in the real sense, and Lu Ren is a little weak in his heart. It's just that the current situation is a typical "arrow on the string, I have to send it", and Lu Ren didn't have the courage to excuse himself, so he simply broke the jar and broke it, bowed to Cao Cao and said: "Cao Gong has a life, how dare Lu Ren disobey?" But listen to Cao Gong's dispatch. ”

Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction: "So good!" Yihao, Xu will build a new city outline to meet the needs of the new capital, and the matter of this new city outline will be entrusted to you. ”

“！！！” Lu Ren raised his head suddenly, and his astonishment overflowed: "New, built, city, outline!?" No kidding, right? What's going on? How could you hand me such a task!? I've never done good architecture, right!? ”
