PS: I highly recommend a good-looking Three Kingdoms novel - "The Call of the Three Kingdoms", there are links in the relevant volumes of the work, and there are links in the through train. You can also look for it on the list of new history books. It must be pretty.

Seeing Yuan Mai's reluctant look, Dong Zhao hurriedly revealed his original intention: "Son, don't be careful, the gift that Duke Cao wants is insignificant to you, the previous prince captured the county prince Ren Jun when he used troops in Hedong." This time, the two families are married, and the son will release Ren Taishou, right? ”

Yuan Mai thought for a while, and finally nodded and agreed to Dong Zhao's request. This Ren Jun is an average soldier, but he is a talent in governing the place, and he has a very hard backbone, and he has always refused to surrender. Since it's useless to keep it, let him go back to sell his favor, and Ren Jun has a lot of prestige among the people, and releasing him can also give him back a reputation of benevolence and righteousness.

"Since Cao Gong has already bought his daughter, I should also show a little affection. That Ren Jun has been imprisoned in Hanoi, and since Cao Gong proposed it, I will repair a letter and send it to Hanoi, and it will not be a few days before he can return to Xuchang. ”

Dong Zhao was overjoyed, hugged his wrist and thanked: "Thank you for your kindness, gentleman, I hope you don't break your word." ”

Yuan Mai stroked his beard and smiled: "Although Gongren can rest assured, a certain is the lord of a state, and his command will be hundreds of people, with 100,000 armor, and millions of people under his rule, how can he go back on his word?" You can go back to Xuchang with confidence. ”

Under the mediation of Dong Zhao, the marriage between Yuan Cao and the two families was successful. After the wine feast, Dong Zhao resigned and returned to Xuchang, but Yuan Mai did not stay, and Dong Zhao repeatedly told Yuan Mai when he left. Don't forget to release Ren Jun, Yuan Mai immediately took up a pen to repair a book, and sent an envoy to Hedong in front of Dong Zhao. Dong Zhao was relieved, took the guards, and returned to Xuchang on horseback.

After Dong Zhao left, Yuan Mai summoned all the civil and military forces and said: "Since Cao Cao is seeking peace, we should take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make every effort to pacify the three states of Hebei, Qing and Youzhou, and after the rear is pacified, there will be no worries." He will be able to compete with Cao Cao for hegemony in the world with all his might. ”

"I am willing to be dispatched from the Lord!" The civil and military staff headed by Xu Shu and Zhao Yun surrendered their orders together.

Yuan Mai immediately passed down the order. Divide the army into three routes, and attack the plains in turn, day and night. Zhang He and Lü Kuang were on the right side, and Zhao Yun and Zhang Xun were on the left side, each leading 15,000 men and horses to take turns attacking the city. He led Xu Shu, Wang Shuang, Zhou Cang, Zhu Gongdao and others to attack the city from the front. The defenders of the city must not be at peace.

Zhao Yun and Zhang He got orders. Each of them set up 10,000 horses. He went to the south and north of the plain to set up camp, followed the art of war in the corner of the siege, and left the north gate to Er Yuan to flee for his life.

Considering that Cao Cao's main army had already gone south to crusade against Liu Bei. Yuan Mai repaired another book and sent a fast horse to Hedong to inform Gao Shun, ordering him to lead the trapped camp under his command, plus 5,000 garrisons to come to the plain to help in the war. It is necessary to inflict heavy losses on the main forces of the Hebei Youth Alliance at all costs, so that they lose the ability to counterattack.

After the envoy to Hedong left, Yuan Mai wrote another letter to Zhang Liao in Hanoi, asking him to send a partial general to be stationed at the junction of Hedong and Hanoi, instead of Gao Shun to patrol and control the situation in Hedong, and in case of a disturbance, he would lead the army into Hedong to defend. There is Jia Kui stationed in Hedong, and Zhang Liao, Fu Zhu, and Tian Chou are in Hanoi, and under the situation of marriage with Cao Jun, it is expected that nothing will happen.

After everything was done, the night was already dark, and Yuan Mai stretched his muscles and went back to his back tent to rest.

"Husband, are you back?" Seeing that Yuan bought it back, Cao Wan, who had been waiting, quickly got up and stepped forward to give her man a wide coat, "You have been busy all day, you must be very tired, let the concubine wait for you to rest." ”

"Coming all the way from the Central Plains to Hebei, I thought you would be homesick and sad, it's rare for you to be so cheerful, and I am relieved." Yuan Mai took off his robe outside, took the towel handed by Cao Wan, wiped his cheeks, and said.

Yuan Mai's words aroused Cao Wan's homesickness, and Chu Chu sighed pitifully: "Marrying a chicken and marrying a dog is a dog, born in troubled times, and the red face is destined to die." Since my father chose to marry me to Hebei, my fate has been sealed, I was abandoned by the Cao family, whether I live or die, they will no longer take it as the same thing. ”

Seeing Cao Wan's pitiful appearance, he immediately aroused Yuan Mai's heart of pity and cherishing jade, hugged Cao Wan in his arms, stroked her hair, and comforted: "Although Cao is relieved, since you have been promised to be a concubine to me, you will be my woman from now on." As long as you don't get involved in politics and don't get involved in the fight between the two families, I, Yuan Mai, will treat you sincerely and will never treat you as the daughter of an enemy. ”

When Cao Wan heard this, she burst into tears: "If you can get such a promise from your husband, even if the concubine is dead, she will be blind." Although the husband can rest assured, since the concubine is married to the husband as a concubine, she will be your woman from now on, and she will think about her husband at any time, let alone participate in politics. ”

"Seeing that you Bingxue is smart, I believe that you will not make stupid and wrong things." Yuan Mai smiled and reached out to wipe away Cao Wan's tears, "Don't be sad, I will send someone to send you back to Yecheng tomorrow, at this moment my concubines are estimated to have arrived, they are all kind people, and they will not embarrass you." ”

Cao Wanyan smiled, pouted and said, "Who said that the concubine was sad, and what people shed were tears of happiness." ”

"Tears of happiness, how do you say that?" Yuan Mai asked with interest.

"When the two strongest princes today, one is my husband and the other is my father, shouldn't the concubine feel happy?" Cao Wan smiled refreshingly, revealing a row of white and neat teeth.

After hearing this, Yuan Mai couldn't help but give Cao Wan a thumbs up: "What the concubine said is reasonable, according to the general trend of the world, it is very likely that the one who can win the title of Sheji is between me and Cao Agui." ”

Cao Wan suddenly stopped doing it, and pouted with a seductive little mouth in protest: "Hmph, what Cao A's secret, even if the husband doesn't call his father, he should also call Prime Minister Cao, right?" Although I was abandoned by the Cao family, I can't forget the nurturing grace of my parents, right? ”

Yuan Mai knew that he was speechless, and said with a smile: "Hehe...... What the concubine said was very true, but my husband and I lost my words. ”

Cao Wan smiled at this time, looking like an adult who didn't remember the villain's mistakes: "Forget it, forget it...... Thinking that the husband is a first-time offender, the concubine body will not care about you. I also know that the Yuan family and our Cao family have been fighting for several years, and if you call your father, your husband will never be able to shout. But my father and Yuan Gong used to be friends, so it's not too much for you to call Uncle Cao, right? If you can't shout this, then it's better to call Prime Minister Cao Cheng, anyway, your father's nickname must not be called. ”

Yuan Mai was very amused by this cute cute girl, and found that he actually liked her a little. Yuan Mai's harem has the amorous Du Yueniang, the heroic Lu Lingqi, the exotic He Lanzhi, the dusty Zhen Luoshen, the small jasper Zhao Zhi, and a talented Cai Zhaoji, but she lacks a lively and lovely cute girl. Now that Cao Wan has been supplemented, it can be regarded as everything in various personalities.

"Okay, okay...... Listen to Madame, I call Cao Cheng Xiang. Yuan Mai agreed with a smile.

Cao Wan nodded: "My husband still has to promise me one thing, I know that my husband is a good man, you won't refuse a concubine, right?" ”

"Oh...... Tell me what do you want your husband to promise you? Yuan Mai frowned slightly and asked.

Cao Wan said eloquently: "If the husband defeats his father one day, I hope you can let him live and give him a pavilion of land, so that he can live for the rest of his life." ”

"So that's what you're talking about?" Yuan Mai was relieved, it was really human nature to make such a request for his children, and it showed that Cao Wan was a tolerant and generous woman, and she did not feel resentful because she was used as a political victim by her father.

Without waiting for Yuan Mai to speak, Cao Wan continued to swear a packed ticket: "In the same way, if my husband loses to my father, I will also beg him to spare my husband's life." Give us a piece of land where our family can enjoy themselves. ”

The corners of Yuan Mai's mouth curled slightly, and he said confidently: "Don't worry, I will never lose!" The final winner must be me, Yuan Xianyong! ”

Cao Wanyan smiled: "The concubine is not a rainy day, for example." ”

As he spoke, he poured the water in the bucket into the wooden basin, stretched out his hand to test the temperature of the water, and then said to Yuan Mai shyly: "Husband take off your clothes and let the concubine bathe you, right?" (To be continued......)
