After Cao Pi and Xiahou Yuan separated, they returned to Cao's Mansion with Dianman, Yuan Tan was defeated, Cao Cao was about to return to the army, and the old ministers who returned to the east couldn't make any waves, and Cao Pi was finally able to return to his pepper room and sleep well.

This sleep from noon to dinner, Cao Pi got up and washed up and went to the main hall for dinner, and after eating, he was about to ask Hui'er to go to the kitchen to order jasmine wine to warm up, but someone came to report: Xiahou Yuan is visiting.

This really made Cao Pi feel a little surprised, you must know that Xiahou Yuan is a person who pays attention to the rules, although he, like Xiahou Yuan, is very valued by Cao Cao. But he never called Cao Cao Mengde. And he kept some distance from anyone, and when he met him on the road today, he returned to Xu Capital together, just out of politeness, and he didn't see any intention to please him from his words and demeanor, so he came to visit in person, and on the premise that Cao Cao was no longer there, the chance was similar to seeing the sun at night.

Accident is unexpected, Cao Pi still personally went out to welcome Xiahou Yuan to his yard, and entertained him with jasmine wine in the main hall, Xiahou Yuan was also very direct, and said as soon as he sat down: "This time I went back to Xudu, I heard that Gongzi is proficient in the way of chess, especially in the ten endgames obtained in the dream is even more wonderful, although the official chess strength is not good, but I love to watch chess the most, and now there is just one chess master in the official Hanshe, I originally wanted to bring that everyone over, but although this official position is not high, but in the final analysis, it is still a relative of the emperor, It's a bit rude to ask him to move, so I want to ask Childe to move over and play a game with that everyone, so that the lower official can enjoy it on the side. ”

Cao Pi was stunned when he heard this, a relative of the emperor who has a low official position? Liu Bei? Just thought of Liu Bei, and then denied this answer, first of all, Chen Chen mentioned to him before, Liu Bei has been sealed Yuzhou Thorn History, Thorn History can be said to be the highest official in charge of the affairs of the counties and counties in the state (provided that there is no state pastor in this place), of course, the current leader of Yuzhou is not Yuzhou Thorn Shi Liu Bei, but Sikong Cao Cao, but if you talk about the official rank, Xiahou Yuan, the Yingchuan Taishou in Yuzhou, is definitely Liu Bei's subordinate, and the relationship is like the governor and the mayor. And Chen Chen also said that Liu Bei and Chen Qun's father and son are no longer allowed to be capital, and according to the historical process, Liu Bei should be driven by Lu Bu to a county called Xiaopei.

Excluding Liu Bei's answer, Cao Pi couldn't guess who it was, but he didn't plan to refuse Xiahou Yuan, firstly, Xiahou Yuan was a heavy general of Cao's army, and secondly, there was no entertainment at night, and it was good to play chess. So Cao Pi readily agreed to Xiahou Yuan's invitation.

After a while, Cao Pi and Dianman had followed Xiahou Yuan out of Cao's mansion, at this time there was already a carriage waiting outside the door, there were two horses on the side of the carriage that no one was riding, led by a sergeant wearing armor, there was a chauffeur in sackcloth on the carriage, Xiahou Yuan asked Cao Pi to get on the car and followed Dianman on each horse, and the sergeant got into the carriage and sat next to the charioteer, and then the group rode in the other direction of the outer city of Xudu.

Xu Ducheng is not big, and several people have carriages and horses, the most high-end means of transportation in the contemporary era, and soon arrived at the destination, Xiahou Yuan's house gate is not very magnificent, because of the carriage, Cao Pi does not know where this house is in the city, but feels that the wall of this house is quite long, and the area should not be small.

Xiahou Yuan asked the sergeant to call the door, and as soon as he shouted, the door opened, and a man in sackcloth who was stuffed opened the door and saluted Xiahou Yuan: "Master." The man was followed by a person, this person wore a virtuous crown on his head, the hat was the same as Chen Chen's, and a beam was carved on his head, indicating that this person's official rank was the same as Chen Chen's.

Looking at this person's clothes, there is no robe on his body, but several layers of white deep clothes on the inside, and a thick linen robe with a good texture on the outside, in addition to the fur in winter, the thick linen robe is the highest grade of warm clothing, and there are only two kinds of people who make silk coats in winter: those who are not afraid of the cold and those who seek death.

This person is very young, estimated to be only twenty years old, the beard on his mouth is not only slender, but also short, and his body is relatively thin, his stature is relatively short compared to Xiahou Yuanlai, but it is considered tall compared to Cao Cao, estimated to be about 175 cm. When the man saw Xiahou Yuan, he immediately smiled and said, "General Miaocai is hard. ”

Xiahou Yuan arched his hand and said to Cao Pi: "Childe, this is the chess master, the descendant of King Fuling, the son of my Chaoguangwu, Liu Ziyang of Jiujiang." As soon as the incumbent Sikong Cang Cao Peng was introduced, Cao Pi knew who the young man in front of him was, this person's name was Liu Ye, and later he was one of the great Honglu in the official to Jiuqing, not only scheming, but also proficient in the study of things, and was a very important strategist for Cao Cao. Sikong Cang Cao Peng is different from Chen Chen's Sikong Peng, Sikong Peng is more about dealing with clerical work, while Cang Cao Peng is in charge of Sikong Mansion's canggu affairs, not only in charge of materials, but also responsible for the wages of all the errand workers in Sikong Mansion, although the level is the same as Chen Chen, but the function is much more important than Chen Chen.

But he saw Liu Ye waving his hand again and again, and said: "The general is serious, everyone is just interested in the way of chess, as for who will be the descendants, Hugh Ti Huti." Then he made a big bow to Cao Pi: "Son, the officials are polite." ”

Cao Pi heard this person mentioned by the doctoral supervisor of the Department of History in his previous life, and the doctoral supervisor gave him the evaluation of "not taking the usual path." "There are three reasons, first, Liu Ye's mother was seriously ill when he was young, and when he was critically ill, he told Liu Ye that there was a subordinate in the family who had a backbone on his head, and if he didn't kill him, the family would be in chaos. Liu Ye really killed that person when he was thirteen years old. Second, there were bullies in the land of Jiujiang where Liu Ye lived at that time, and everyone was afraid of them, but Liu Ye designed to get that person drunk and kill him. Third, although Liu Ye is a relative of the emperor, he is also very famous in Jiujiang, and his family power is not small, but he did not think about supporting the army and self-respect, but first took refuge in Lujiang Taishou Liu Xun, and Liu Xun was defeated by Sun Ce and immediately took refuge in Cao Cao.

To put it bluntly, this person is very self-aware, and he also knows people, and he understands very well what it means to choose a good bird to perch on a tree, and will not blindly stand on his own mountain, often this kind of person is very long-lived.

There is also a legend that Cao Jun's late Megatron thunderbolt was also invented by this person.

Now, Liu Ye, who is not taking the usual path, is saluting Cao Pi, and Cao Pi is not in the same mood when he sees him as he sees others, because people like Liu Ye are what Cao Pi needs most in this era, and the ideal person who Cao Pi can contact in the short term is only Liu Ye.

So at this time, Cao Pi's mood can be described in four words: "I am happy to see the hunt." ”
