That night, Cao Shuo chatted at Guo Jia's residence until late at night before leaving.

As soon as it was dawn, he walked out of Yuan Fang's room.

Sending him to the door, Yuan Fang sorted out his clothes and armor for him: "Husband, come back early, don't delay after breaking Wuhuan, we are all waiting at home for the news of victory." ”

"You're not worried about your two brothers at all?" Cao Shuo asked.

"What's the use of worrying?" Yuan Fang said: "The number of lives is like this, don't say it's me, even my husband can't save them." ”

"If only you could be compassionate." Cao Shuo put his arm around her waist: "When I come back, I will pamper you a few more times." ”

Yuan Fang rolled his eyes: "Husband, don't make trouble, you are out on the battlefield, and you are not bringing your own soldiers." I really miss a woman, and the dancer or something can make do with it. As long as no woman brings it home, the sisters don't care. ”

"I'm still a picky eater." Cao Shuo smiled: "When I come back, I will definitely save a lot." When the time comes, I'll give you all of them, and I'm sure I'll be able to conceive a child. ”

"Then I'll wait for my husband to come back." Yuan Fang pursed her lips and smiled, and helped Cao Shuo straighten her collar.

When he came to the front yard, Cao Shuo saw that Ding Yi was already waiting there.

"Childe is going to Yecheng this time, how many people do you plan to bring?" Ding Yi asked.

"My father wouldn't let me lead the army." Cao Shuo said: "I'll just take the dragon pattern to ride forward." ”

"Childe, please!" Ding Yi stepped aside and said to Cao Shuo.

Of course, Cao Shuo would not excuse him, and walked directly to the main entrance.

When he arrived at the door, Chen Zhi had already led the dragon pattern rider to wait there.

Seeing Cao Shuo coming out, Chen Zhi ran over.

He clasped his fists and saluted, "Childe, the dragon pattern ride has been prepared." ”

"Come with me to Yecheng." Cao Shuo greeted and turned over on the war horse that the guards had brought him.

Ding Yi also turned over and got on the horse.

Cao Shuo said to him: "Duke Ding, we are all cavalry, we can speed up the road to Yecheng." ”

"With Childe." Ding Yi responded.

When they left the city, some people who knew that Cao Shuo was going to go on an expedition came to both sides of the road.

They saluted Cao Shuo one after another, shouting in their mouths: "I wish Gongzi a victory." ”

Leaving Shouchun City, Ding Yi said to Cao Shuo: "Gongzi's prestige in Shouchun is really high. ”

"I have the people in my heart, and of course the people have me in their hearts." Cao Shuo said: "They don't really have too many requirements, they just want to live well." I let them live, and they are living quite nourishingly, and most people must be grateful for my benefits. ”

"How does Childe say that most people?" Ding Yi said: "I think the people of the entire Shouchun love Gongzi very much. ”

"The whole Shouchun?" Cao Shuo said with a smile: "It's an exaggeration for Ding Gong to say this, although I do have a status in the eyes of most people, after all, there are still some people who don't like me." I'm a very practical person and definitely don't think everyone likes me. ”

"That's what Childe said." Ding Yi said to Cao Shuo: "The son returned to Shouchun last time, and the second son was also called by the second son. ”

"I had already guessed that Zihuan was going." Cao Shuo said: "It's also a good thing, he was defeated in Hanzhong, and he can also have some experience if he goes to Wuhuan with him." ”

"Childe really thinks it's a good thing that the second son went?" Ding Yi asked.

"Don't you think it's a good thing?" Cao Shuo asked rhetorically.

"Of course it's not a good thing." Ding Yi said: "The son is the son of the Cao family, the second son has always been ambitious, and the Cao family is well known. Cao Gong has the heart to support him, although he cannot be stronger than Gongzi's power, but he is a big problem for Gongzi after all. ”

Smiling slightly, Cao Shuo said: "There are good things in this world, everyone grabs them, I have a treasure, if others don't come to grab it, how can I see that it is a treasure?" It doesn't matter if someone robs it, what matters is whether someone else can grab it. ”

Ding Yi said: "The second son is not simple, although he is not as good as the son on the battlefield, but the methods he secretly uses, the son still has to be careful." ”

"Why did Ding Gong tell me this?" Cao Shuo asked Ding Yi.

"I say this just because I don't like the second son's personality." Ding Yi said: "If the second son gets the Cao family, not only will the Cao family brothers not be at peace, but those of us who do things will probably not have a good life." ”

"It seems that Ding Gong knows Zihuan very well." Cao Shuo lowered his voice and said: "I'm not in Yecheng, Zihuan now occupies Yuzhou, and he is closer to his father." Many times I have indeed suffered a lot, I don't know how Ding Gong thinks this matter should be resolved? ”

"Does Childe have any plans?" Ding Yi asked.

"What does Ding Gong think of Cao Zhi?" Cao Shuo asked in a low voice.

"Zhi Gongzi is a kind person, obsessed with words, and does not know how to fight inside and outside." Ding Yi said: "To be honest, I don't think he can achieve great things. It's just that compared to the second son, he is easier to get close to. ”

"Since that's the case, Ding Gong can help him more in the future." Cao Shuo smiled slightly and said to Ding Yi: "If my father wants to support Zihuan, I will support Zijian, they were born to the same mother, and there should be a way back between them." ”

"The eldest son plans to support the fourth son?" Ding Yi was stunned and asked, "Isn't the eldest son planning to fight?" ”

"Fight?" Cao Shuo said with a smile: "Sometimes fighting is not fighting, and not fighting is fighting." ”

didn't understand what Cao Shuo meant, Ding Yi stared at him for a long time, and didn't want to ask any questions.

Cao Shuo asked him, "If you had to choose between Zihuan and me, who would Duke Ding choose?" ”

"Of course, it's to choose a son." Ding Yi said: "I already said just now, I can't get used to the second son's personality, and when he takes the Cao family, I'm afraid few of us will be able to survive." ”

"That's not going to happen." Cao Shuo said: "Although Zihuan is a bit fierce, he will not kill indiscriminately. After all, those who have achieved great things cannot achieve much by virtue of indiscriminate killing. ”

"Even so, I'm still willing to choose Childe." Ding Yi said: "The son is pure and good, which can be seen from being loved by the people. ”

"If Ding Gong really chooses me, he will support Zijian after returning to Yecheng." Cao Shuo said: "As long as someone is messing with Zihuan behind his back, he doesn't have the heart to bother me." I don't want to dwell too much with him right now, after all, my territory is not fully secured, and there are many things I have to do. ”

"I finally understand what Childe means." Ding Yi said: "It is to support the fourth son, in order to stabilize his position, the second son can only solve him first, and then come back to fight with the eldest son." ”

"Yes!" The corners of Cao Shuo's mouth twitched slightly: "If it were me, I would start with the easy to deal with, wait until everything is safe, and then entangle with the difficult ones." ”
