Everyone retreated, Cao Cao covered his forehead, he had a serious head wind in the past few days, he didn't get sick early, he didn't get sick late, but he had to wait until this time to get sick, could this be a chance for Yuan Shao.

Cao Pi walked in with a cup of hot tea, put him on the case in front of Cao Cao, and said softly: "Father, this is the ginseng tea that my mother made for you, I hope you drink it while it's hot!" ”

Cao Cao didn't raise his head, and his words were even colder: "Put it down!" ”

There was a short silence, it was always difficult to talk between father and son, Cao Pi didn't know why, it seemed that since he was born, Cao Cao didn't like himself, he could like Zijian, he could like Cao Zhang, he could like Chong'er, but it was impossible to like him Cao Pi anyway.

"Something?" Cao Cao saw that his son couldn't leave for a long time, so he put down the bamboo slip in his hand and asked softly.

Cao Pi asked in disbelief: "Father, there is something unknown about my son, if you go to Hebei, Lingjun is definitely the most suitable person to guard Xudu, why do you want to take him?" ”

"What did you find?" Cao Cao smiled, since Cao Pi could say such a thing, it showed that he was aware of the affairs of the imperial court, and it was not in vain Xun Yu's cultivation.

Cao Pi thought about it again and again, he was guessing what Cao Cao's purpose was in asking such a question, Cao Pi knew that his father hated others speculating about his chest the most, but there were some things that Cao Pi couldn't help but ask.

"My son thinks that the dark tide of Xu Ducheng is surging, and many changes in the court and China today are related to the ministers of the Han Dynasty in the court, these people are very dishonest, but the father can't kill them, just like Yang Biao, the son has long noticed that he has already moved, and now, Yang Xiu's difficult and vicious side is gradually revealed, why do you still take him to Hebei?"

Cao Cao said unhurriedly: "Then Gu will teach you what is the reason, if you understand Xuchang City, there is indeed no one more suitable for defending the city than Ling Jun, but if Ling Jun stays, those ministers of Xiang Han will not dare to act rashly, Ling Jun has always acted carefully, how can they be given a chance, and I left Li Dian to see if Yang Biao and Sima Fang, the two useless old guys, dare to come out and make waves, if they don't even have such courage, then Gu also looks up to them too much." ”

"What about Yang Xiu, is this person really worthy of his father's reuse? Now that his father has transferred him to Zijian's mansion again, will this harm Zijian? Cao Pi asked again, indeed, he only saw the surface of one thing, but did not see the root of this matter.

Cao Cao simply stood up, looked at Cao Pi and let out a sneer, and said faintly: "No matter how cunning Yang Xiu is, can he still deceive Lonely?" There is a tiger marquis by his side, he wants to assassinate, but he has no chance, I took Yang Xiu, not to let him give advice in front of me, I have Guo Fengxiao, Cheng Zhongde, Xun Lingjun, Xun Gongda, I don't have to rely on such a scheming teenager! ”

Cao Pi took a deep breath, stood up and said: "My son understands, Yang Xiu's role is to contain Yang Biao, and my father took Ling Jun to Hebei to let Sima Fang and others do it, this is a big game of chess, as long as they dare to move, my father will have a reason to kill them!" ”

Originally, Cao Cao thought that Cao Pi's scheming was not very deep, but today's words moved him a little, this is indeed Cao Cao's thoughts, even after hearing Cao Pi say this, Cao Cao still can't be happy.

Cao Cao still didn't drink that bowl of tea, Cao Pi frowned, a little repulsive to this son, suddenly, a guard outside the door hurriedly walked in, knelt down and said: "Qi Qi Sikong, Master Yang asks to see!" ”

Cao Cao smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Sure enough, there are still people who can't sit still, but I didn't expect this person to be Yang Xiu, let him in!" ”

After the guards went down, Cao Cao looked at Cao Pi and said, "You go down too!" ”

"Yes!"

Cao Cao didn't want Cao Pi to hear his conversation with Yang Xiu, after all, Yang Xiu was a courtier of Cao Zhi's mansion, and it was very unfair to Cao Zhi to do so, and he repeatedly emphasized that his sons must compete fairly and never engage in those conspiracies.

After a while, Yang Xiu walked in and said, "Minister Yang Xiu, I've seen Sikong!" ”

"Master Yang, please get up!" Cao Cao waved his hand and motioned for Yang Xiu to stand up and speak.

Yang Xiu was indifferent, and said in a panic: "Please be the minister!" ”

Cao Cao was surprised, Yang Xiu was the official of Sikong Mansion, would he be wronged?

"The master bookkeeper made it clear, who made the master book wronged!"

"Yesterday, the minister was in Xuchang City, and I saw someone following me, and the minister felt that it was someone from the Sima family, and at night, someone actually came out to assassinate Yu Chen, if it weren't for Guo Junshi's school affairs to arrive in time, I am afraid that the minister would have been unable to see Sikong for a long time!"

Yang Xiu cried extremely sincerely, and the pear blossoms brought rain, so that Cao Cao had to believe it!

"Did the master ever see the man's face?" Cao Cao asked.

Yang Xiu said: "I haven't seen it clearly! ”

If you can't be sure that the person is from Sima's family, you will slander it out of thin air, and you can't find evidence, even if you arrest Sima Fang, what if you arrest it?

"Then this matter is difficult to do, it's not that Lone doesn't call the shots for you, there is no real evidence, and Lone can't kill the loyal ministers of the court... But if it's really as the master book says, why should the people of the Sima family kill you? ”

Yang Xiu is waiting for this question, the purpose of his coming is very simple, he followed Cao Sikong to Hebei, but no one from the Sima family followed, is this thing normal?

Of course it's not normal, if his father's heart is towards the big man, then Sima Fang doesn't have such thoughts? Sima Yi has always been very deep in the city, if during his absence, his father's affairs happened, Sima Fang and Sima Yi pushed the matter on his father's body, then the Yang family would be over!

Anyway, it's all going to hell, it's better to pull a cushion back, isn't Sima Yi amazing, he actually broke his legs in order to escape Sikong's conquest, then he Yang Xiu wants to see if these legs are really useless, or Sima Yi is pretending to be sick, and I don't know how long Sima Yi can pretend!

"This minister is not very clear, but he probably thinks that the minister has seen through Sima Yi's suspicion of pretending to be sick!"

"Are you saying that Sima Yi's leg is fine, and he is pretending to be sick?" Cao Cao's expression was gloomy, thinking that this matter was interesting, before he went to Hebei, the sons of the two old guys fought, well, since they wanted to fight, then they couldn't be disappointed!

"It's possible!" Yang Xiu paused slightly, Sikong seemed to have begun to become suspicious!

"Then according to Master Yang's thoughts, how should Lone do this?" Cao Cao deliberately showed an evil smile and said lightly.

Yang Xiu was overjoyed in his heart, and admonished: "Sikong can let Sima Yi come to Sikong Mansion and let people check it, if the illness is pretended, then ask Sikong to punish the crime, if it is really sick, Sikong can also be relieved!" ”
