That night, Guan Yu and Chen Zhen were both drunk.

The next day, Guan Yu still wrote a letter to Chen Zhen and asked him to take it back to Sun Gan, as for Yuan Shao, he didn't bother to reply to the letter, because Chen Zhen didn't plan to go back to see Yuan Shao, he only needed to write to Sun Qian and bring it back to Liu Bei.

In the letter, Guan Yu did not say anything to Liu Bei, nor did he give any explanation for his vote for Cao Cao. Because he doesn't think it's important anymore. The important thing is that Guan Yu just wants to be loyal to Liu Bei to the fullest, send his sister-in-law Liang Lan back to Liu Bei, and then explain to Liu Bei that their respective philosophies are different, and they do not conspire with each other, and from then on, he and Liu Bei no longer have any relationship.

Guan Yu's current situation, Chen Zhen didn't have any strategies to teach Guan Yu, he could only let Guan Yu take good care, carry Guan Yu's reply, and leave Xu Du to find Sun Qian.

However, after Chen Zhen left, Guan Yu thought about the news that Chen Zhen revealed to him, and he thought that Yuan and Cao were about to fight, and this war was together, and he didn't know when Lu Dao would fight. At that time, there were Cao and Yuan's armies on both sides of the Yellow River, and the Yellow River was not passable, so how could he send his sister-in-law across the north bank of the Yellow River to deliver it to Liu Bei? Also, if Yuan Shao wins the battle and defeats Cao Cao, it is easy to say, but if Cao Cao defeats Yuan Shao, when the time comes, I don't know what will happen to the eldest brother Liu Bei. In case Liu Bei had an accident, or if he didn't know where he went, how could he send his sister-in-law back to Liu Bei?

He thought that it was really not a way for him to protect his sister-in-law like this, could it be that if he didn't send his sister-in-law back to Liu Bei, he wouldn't be able to do anything?

I can't go on like this.

Guan Yu acted. Above board, he remembered the three chapters of the covenant with Cao Cao, and felt that since there was already an appointment. If you want to leave, you should also inform Cao Cao. Now, although Guan Yu knew that Cao Cao had sent many people to watch him, he probably didn't want to let him go. However, if you don't try it, how can you know that Cao Cao is not keeping his promise? If he went to ask Cao Cao for his resignation, but Cao Cao didn't allow it, then Guan Yu himself could leave openly. It was Cao Cao who did not keep his promise first, and it is no wonder that he will not return to this court in the future.

Even if Guan Yu said that he wanted to return to Han, he did not explain to Cao Cao which Han it was. However, Guan Yu didn't want others to criticize him, and felt that he should still be right to himself and act according to his own heart.

So. Guan Yu decided. Take your sister-in-law and leave immediately.

After talking to her sister-in-law Liang Lan, Liang Lan also saw that Guan Yu was indeed a little anxious, although her feelings for Guan Yu were subtle, but the more she had a good impression of Guan Yu, the more she felt that she couldn't drag Guan Yu down. If Guan Yu can leave with him and send himself back to Liu Bei, then Guan Yu can go about his own business. In this way, no matter how miserable his fate is. is a little comforted in her heart, at least, she doesn't have to drag down this second uncle, who can be called a real hero.

Liang Lan agreed with Guan Yu's opinion, secretly packed up some softness, and was ready to leave with Guan Yu at any time. Of course, she also knew in her heart that this trip might not be too smooth, and there would definitely be dangers, so she was ready in her heart, if Cao Cao blocked it more, it would be unfavorable to the second uncle, then she would end herself herself, so that the second uncle would not have to worry about her.

However, what made Guan Yu a little helpless was that he wanted to ask Cao Cao for his resignation, but he didn't see Cao Cao. He went to the Prime Minister's Mansion several times to meet him, but he never saw Cao Cao again, and even wanted to find Zhang Liao, who had a little friendship with him, but even Zhang Liao couldn't find him. Other Cao generals, who could still speak two sentences with Guan Yu, did not meet Guan Yu.

In this way, Guan Yu knew that Cao Cao might have known his true intentions, and now he was deliberately avoiding himself.

Indeed, all Guan Yu's movements in Xu Du could not be concealed from Cao Cao.

Many times, Cao Cao really can't figure out what life is for? High-ranking officials are generous, and they respond to every call? He can give it, gold, silver and jewelry, feudal marquis and generals, and beautiful mansions, all of which have been given to Guan Yu, as long as Guan Yu is willing to call himself a lord and sincerely serve himself, all his military horses, he is willing to hand them over to Guan Yu to command, let him become a real general, lead the army to fight in the south and the north for himself, and pacify the world.

However, why didn't this Guan Yu move for himself? Could it be that there is anything in this world that attracts Guan Yu more than what he gave Guan Yu?

Is it because he married Liu Bei as brothers? Do you have to go back to Liu Bei's side?

Cao Cao was dismissive of this. Because, he thinks, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei are just meeting in Pingshui, it turns out that no one knows anyone, and they are together after the marriage, how long can such a brotherhood last? Could it be that such brotherhood is more important than high-ranking officials? Is it more important than money beauty?

In fact, the matter of becoming brothers is not only Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei. In this world, there are many people who meet opponents in the sea, and many people who become brothers on impulse also go to the sea. Why don't you see that others can abandon everything for the sake of their brothers?

If nothing else, let's just say that he Cao Cao himself, when he was a teenager, it can be said that he grew up with Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others. Mixed with each other, and used to call each other brothers, but what about now? Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, brothers who are related by blood, can also turn against each other, and now, Yuan Shu is dead, and Yuan Shao has become an enemy with him.

Therefore, Cao Cao has always believed that the so-called brotherhood is the most reliable thing, and these so-called affection are really not worth mentioning compared to high-ranking officials and money beauties.

Therefore, Cao Cao always thought that Guan Yu was probably just for fame and fortune. Now, give Guan Yu everything you have, see if Guan Yu still has to go, and see if Guan Yu still has to follow that brother Liu Bei, who has nothing.

Cao Cao avoided Guan Yu, and planned to let Guan Yu calm down in Xu Du, let him enjoy these things he gave Guan Yu, and let him feel the benefits brought to him by high-ranking officials.

Cao Cao always believed that no man could refuse these things. After a while, Cao Cao planned to talk to Guan Yu again, as long as Guan Yu could enjoy the things he had given. Cao Cao felt that the opportunity was ripe and he could persuade Guan Yu to sincerely serve himself.

The best thing is that Guan Yu has feelings for the beauties he sent. In this way, when the time comes, I'm afraid Guan Yu will be reluctant to leave.

It's a pity that Cao Cao miscalculated Guan Yu's character, and the people who stared at Guan Yu reported that Guan Yu had never touched the belongings sent by Cao Cao, and he had never slept with the women he gave to Guan Yu. The reason why Guan Yu wanted to accept the gift was to make his sister-in-law live better.

In the General's Palace. Usually, unless there are guests visiting, otherwise, Guan Yu just eats and drinks with his subordinates. I won't even enjoy the better food.

Through these reports, Cao Cao knew that Guan Yu really couldn't use the mentality of ordinary people to spend it. Guan Yu frequently came to see him. This is Guan Yu's rare initiative move, Cao Cao has a feeling that if he really meets Guan Yu, it may be the time for Guan Yu to have a showdown with himself. Under such circumstances, Cao Cao felt that he couldn't see Guan Yu.

But Cao Cao miscalculated Guan Yu's determination to leave.

On this day, Guan Yu felt that if he stayed any longer, Cao and Yuan would fight together, and he was afraid that it would be more difficult for him to leave. What you think. Waiting for Cao Cao to fight with Yuan Shao before leaving, it seems even more whimsical. Cao Cao is still like this in Xuchang. If Cao Cao is not there, those who guard him will not be able to speak easily, and once he has the intention of leaving, I am afraid that those people will take action against him.

That's it, since Cao Cao avoided himself, then he had no choice but to say goodbye without saying goodbye, and fortunately, when he said in the third chapter of the law, if he knew the whereabouts of his brother Liu Bei, he could say goodbye without saying goodbye.

Guan Yu thought about it and wrote a letter. He explained his determination to leave to Cao Cao, and then asked him to send the letter to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Then, Guan Yu sealed all the gold and silver money given by Cao Cao in the warehouse of the General's Mansion, and then hung the gold Hanshou Pavilion Hou Yin and the general's seal on the hall beams, and all the appointment letters were also placed on the main case of the hall. All the slaves and beauties in the family, Guan Yu also ordered them to wait in front of the hall of the General's Mansion, so that they could not move, and wait for Prime Minister Hou to send someone to deal with it.

After dealing with these, Guan Yu invited his sister-in-law Liang Lan from the back house.

Her sister-in-law Liang Lan did not carry any valuables given by Cao Cao, she only took a few changes of clothes, as well as some money that was originally hers.

Guan Yu asked her sister-in-law Liang Lan to get into a simple carriage, and then put on her armor and carried a knife on the horse.

This time, Guan Yu will never be too simple, so Guan Yu must be ready to fight at any time. If Cao Cao's people don't stop him, if he really stops him from leaving with his sister-in-law, he will also decide to fight his way.

In this way, Guan Yu rode a red rabbit horse, holding the Qinglong Moon Knife in one hand and the reins of the carriage in the other, and slowly walked out of the General's Mansion.

In fact, when Guan Yu hung the seal and sealed the gold, the people who were staring at Guan Yu had already noticed that something was wrong with Guan Yu, and someone had already flown to report to Cao Cao, and at the same time, some Cao Bing, who was watching the house, wanted to stop Guan Yu first.

However, Guan Yu looked at him angrily and shouted at those Cao soldiers who wanted to stop him, and those Cao soldiers were so frightened that they retreated and did not really come forward to intercept them.

To know Lu Dao, Guan Yu's single-handedly recaptured Runan City has already spread in Xudu, and the general Cao soldiers all know the bravery of Lu Dao Guan Yu, like them, these little soldiers, if they want to stop Guan Yu, they are really looking for death. What's more, although Cao Cao ordered them to keep an eye on Guan Yu's daily moves, he didn't let them really do anything to Guan Yu. Well, in fact, in the backyard, there are also Cao Bing guarding Liang Lan, but, under Guan Yu's tough attitude, they don't dare to take Liang Lan seriously, because they all believe that if they really dare to be unfavorable to Guan Yu's sister-in-law Liang Lan, they will definitely be the first to die, and in front of Guan Yu, they really dare not be presumptuous.

When he got to the street, Guan Yu pondered for a while, knowing that if he left like this, Cao Cao might send someone to intercept him, instead of hiding it, it was better to leave directly from the north gate, so that Cao Cao knew that he was going to take his sister-in-law to Hebei to see Liu Bei now.

When he arrived on the street, Guan Yu sped up slightly, and soon arrived at the gate in the north of the city.

The guards at the city gate also recognized Guan Yu's beautiful hair, and when they saw Guan Yu riding a car like this and wanted to get out of the city, they were a little embarrassed, and they didn't know if they wanted to let Guan Yu go out of the city. Because they have not received Cao Cao's order for the time being, whether to let Guan Yu go.

But. Guan Yu stepped forward and said to them: "Brothers, don't be embarrassed, Guan Yu and Prime Minister Cao Cheng have an appointment in advance." If Guan knows where his brother Liu Bei is, he can protect his sister-in-law and send it back to Liu Bei at will, not to mention, Guan Mou's departure has already asked people to send Guan's letter of farewell to the prime minister, and all the things that Cao Cao rewarded Guan Mou are sealed in the General's Mansion. Guan left at this moment, except for the red rabbit horse, nothing else took a stitch from the prime minister. Now you get out of the way. Let Guan out of the city, if your prime minister has another order not to let Guan leave, you can also come to chase after him. If you want to stop it now, then Guan can only say sorry. ”

Guan Yu finished speaking. His eyes swept coldly at the Cao soldiers who were guarding the city gate.

These Cao soldiers. was intimidated by Guan Yu's momentum, and dodged away in shock.

Well, Guan Yu's meaning is also obvious, if they dare to stop him, he will dare to kill people and break in. After hearing about Guan Yu's martial arts, these soldiers really didn't dare to stop Guan Yu's edge.

After Cao Bing got out of the way, Guan Yu led the carriage and went directly to the official road outside the city. Look north.

At this moment, Cao Cao had already received the letter. I just finished reading the thank you letter sent by Guan Yu.

After reading it, Cao Cao suddenly said: "Yun Chang is gone!" ”

For a while, Cao Cao's mood was really complicated, especially when Guan Yu had already sealed the gold and returned everything he had given to himself. In Guan Yu's letter, it was very clear that Cao Cao really shouldn't think about it for a while when he thought of Guan Yu's affection.

Guan Yu's intention to go has been decided, and Cao Cao knows that Guan Yu may never stay because of his own retention. Guan Yu doesn't stay, how will he stay? Kill Guan Yu?

Thinking of killing Guan Yu, Cao Cao's heart was even more irritable, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

Suddenly, another north gate guard reported that Guan Yu had left Xu Du and left from the north gate.

When Cao Cao heard this, he was shocked and said, "Guan Yu is in such a hurry? ”

"Prime Minister, I am willing to lead three thousand iron horses, go to capture Guan Yu alive and come back, and dedicate myself to the Prime Minister."

All of Cao Cao's generals are here, but when they look, they are General Cai Yang.

This Cai Yang is also a general under Cao Cao's account, with strong martial arts, great strength, and unstoppable bravery.

Well, don't doubt it, in fact, Cai Yang's martial arts are really ranked first under Cao Cao's account, and he can compete with Xu Huang, Zhang Liao and other generals without falling behind. Moreover, he is also a master of making long knives, like Guan Yu and Zhang Liao, they are all good at using long-handled broadswords, and the generals who have fought with him all know that Cai Yang's knife skills are superb and extremely powerful.

Therefore, at this moment, when Cai Yang stood up and said that he would lead three thousand iron horsemen to capture Guan Yu and come back, the Cao generals did not suspect that Cai Yang could not do it, he himself was so powerful, and with the help of three thousand iron horsemen, it was expected that Guan Yu would not be able to escape.

However, according to the official history, Cai Yang was not killed by Guan Yu when he was riding alone for thousands of miles, but died at the hands of Liu Bei. In addition, there is also an account that Cai Yang was originally a general of Runan, but he was defeated by the Yellow Turban thieves in Runan and lost Runan. Some people say that Cai Yang can't even beat Liu Pi, Gong Du and the like, and An dares to be called a master?

Well, no matter what the historical facts are, but Cai Yang in front of him is indeed a real first-class master, he has long been famous in the Runan area, and everyone knows him. The reason why he lost Runan City was not at the hands of Liu Pi and Gong Du, but at the hands of the masked thief, that is, Zhang Fei. Therefore, the defeat of Runan City does not mean that Cai Yang's ability is fake.

However, now in front of Cao Cao, there are so many generals, and none of them jumped out to say that they want to capture Guan Yu, why is it Cai Yang?

In fact, it is mainly Cai Yang's unconvincing relationship.

At present, in the army of Xu Du, Guan Yu's martial arts are all rumored, and everyone talks about it, especially Guan Yu's recovery of Runan City from the hands of the Yellow Turban thieves. These things, in the eyes of others, are at most some drunken conversations, which are nothing, but in Cai Yang's eyes, it is not a taste in his heart.

Others say that Guan Yu is even more powerful, which is equivalent to saying that he Cai Yang is even more incompetent. Runan City was lost from his hands, but it was easily recaptured by Guan Yu. Doesn't this just show his Cai Yang's incompetence?

These things are bothering Cai Yang all the time, but Cai Yang does not have a way to justify his name.

But now, Guan Yu's departure makes him feel that this is a great opportunity to make a name for himself. He thinks that as long as he can defeat Guan Yu, then this proves that he is not worse than Guan Yu, and losing Runan is a crime of non-war, not that he Cai Yang is incompetent.

Therefore, among the generals under Cao Cao's account, even Xu Huang admires Guan Yu quite a lot, and no one disrespects Guan Yu, but only Cai Yang, he is a little unconvinced by Guan Yu. If it weren't for the fact that Cao Cao attached great importance to Guan Yu, he wouldn't dare to make a mistake, these days, he was afraid that he would have to challenge Guan Yu a long time ago.

It's just that when Cai Yang asked for battle, Cao Cao hadn't made up his mind for a while, and waved his hand to Cai Yang: "What are you doing when you come back to capture Guan Yu?" The letters just now have been made very clear, he voted for Han not me Cao Cao, and Cao and Guan Yu agreed on three chapters, Guan Yu left at this moment, there is nothing wrong, but it is a pity that Cao Mou is such a member of the fierce general can not be used by Cao. Like Guan Yu, he understands that his true husband should follow suit and be loyal and trustworthy. ”

After speaking, Cai Yang was ordered to retreat and not to chase after him. (To be continued......)
