—184 A.D.——

Luoyang, Cao Fu.

"Found evil?"

"No, I didn't."

"Master promised to go with us?"

"Not either."

"Then why are you laughing?"

“……”

Seeing that Cai Wan touched the corners of his mouth, his face instantly sank, and Cao Cao slightly regretted why he asked this sentence.

"No, it's nothing," Cai Wan said, "just met a person with a bad look—"

"Handsome little brother!" Cai Yan beside her rushed to answer.

Oops, Zhenji's face is even darker, she didn't hit people with that "assembled Konghou", right......

————

The Konghou was developed at the suggestion of Cai Wan after the "technology" of Jinan developed to a certain height, taking into account the beauty, sturdiness, easy to carry and assemble, as well as the structural stability after encountering impacts.

As for the playing effects, the pitch and the timbre...... Because it is an attribute that needs to be cared about when it is customized for Cai Yan, everyone invariably ignores it.

In order to avoid the family being affected, Cao Cao quietly returned to Luoyang with Yuan Shao and Cai Wan, intending to take Cao Song, Cai Yong, Yuan Feng and other elders to Jinan, even if it doesn't work, they must persuade them to leave Luoyang, a place where chaos will inevitably occur in the future, after all, the foundation of the Yuan clan in Runan and the Cao clan in Qiaoxian County are in Yuzhou, unlike the Hongnong Yang clan in Sili, and they can't run away.

Due to the instability of Qingzhou, this trip to Luoyang, Cao Cao, in addition to the Cai sisters and Yuan Shao, only brought Dian Wei as a guard and Xi Zhicai, who could give advice, although Xu Chu also wanted to follow, but his physique was too eye-catching to carry out camouflage and stealth operations, and he also needed a person who could suppress Tai Shi Ci by force to guard in Jinan - not to suspect him, but if he was threatened by his mother, this Tai Shi filial son probably wouldn't even hesitate when he turned up.

The Xiahou brothers and Cao Chun had to train the tiger and leopard riders, while Li Dian and Le Jin had to continue to recruit ordinary troops, and Zhang Jue had to quietly recruit the Taiping Dao people who could not appear on the bright side at this time to join the Qingzhou army.

After actually coming to Luoyang, everyone was dumbfounded.

According to the Han system, the three dukes are: Taiwei, Situ, Sikong, and there are also Taifu, Da Sima and Da General, who are known as the "Three Princes".

At this time, the incumbents were, Taiwei Cao Song, Situ Cai Yong, Sikong Yuan Feng, Taifu Yuan Kui, Da Sima Lu Zhi, and General He Jin.

Great, the Yuan family is now not the fourth and third dukes but the fifth dukes.

Although the position of the three dukes is given at will, and the change is also diligent, but the two three dukes of the Yuan family will not give up easily, and Cai Yong was awarded the title of the three dukes because of the revision of the "Xiping Stone Scripture", most of them think that it is glory, in contrast, it is the least difficult to persuade Cao Song to give up the Taiwei who was obviously donated with the money he saved when he was a big farmer.

However, the result of the separate persuasion was that none of them were persuaded.

Regarding what Cao Cao said, Luoyang and even the world will be in turmoil, Yuan Kui and Yuan Feng said that they have never seen anything in the fourth world and three dukes, while Cai Yong claimed that this should be the time to serve the imperial court, as for Cao Song, he said that as long as the others are willing to leave, he will also resign immediately, and the implication is likely to be "This Taiwei has not been in office for a long time, and then let his father have a good time."

The elders refused to leave, even if Xi Zhicai was full of wisdom, there was no way to force it, so he had to try to collect the evidence of the ten permanent servants everywhere in Luoyang, but the emperor knew it but completely ignored the evidence, if he could dispel Cai Yong's idea of "serving the imperial court" and persuade him, it would be easier for others who had an example to persuade him.

The "disappeared" Dian Wei actually carried out such a covert operation according to Xi Zhicai's assignment, but unexpectedly, Xiao Wenji, who has always been well-behaved, would cry from time to time because of this, and Cai Wan had to take her to see Cai Yong from time to time - maybe he could speed up and persuade him to leave?

"[It's no show]," the "stand-in" once commented: "[Even if the ten permanent servants die violently now, and the whole world celebrates, the teacher will sigh for the contributions they have made to the Han.] 】”

Yes, of course, the "stand-in" also came to Luoyang, and if there is any emergency military situation, he has to rely on him to dispatch back and forth between Luoyang and Jinan.

The "stand-in" seems to have "evolved" again, specifically it can hold items without "assimilating" them, but the difference in voice compared to Cao Cao himself can be detected by listening a little closely.

Cao Cao was quite skeptical, if one day the "stand-in" completely became another person, could he still be called a "stand-in"?

————

"Handsome little brother......" Cao Cao would not be bored with himself and say to Cai Yan What adults talk to children Don't interject, that will only be cleaned up by Cai Wan, who protects the calf: "Let me guess, is he dressed in silver and white armor, holding a silver gun, and wearing a cloth belt on his forehead?" ”

"It's not a cloth belt," Cai Yan corrected seriously: "It's a shiny forehead guard." ”

[Sure enough, it's Zhao Yun! Kidnap him back! The "stand-in" was suddenly excited.

I thought, Cao Cao raised an eyebrow.

Because the Ten Constant servants relied on the emperor's order in their hands and sent their subordinates to do mischief in Luoyang, many rangers secretly confronted them, but both sides knew that their actions could not be exposed, so most of them chose to act in inaccessible places or after nightfall, and wore clothes that could hide their faces or dark colors.

Only this young general, who has had several faces, did the opposite, with silver guns and silver armor, and acted in a high-profile manner, if he was given a white horse, he could completely serve as the leader of the white horse of the Gongsun family.

But unfortunately, no one can catch him, and any tracking is in vain, including the "stand-in" that is almost impossible to discover.

Combined with the strange way he appeared when he came to meet Cao Cao, it is clear that he is not just invisible like a "stand-in", but there is really a "world" to hide, but I don't know how big it is.

"That little brother is called 'Zhao Yun'," Cao Cao said to Cai Yan with Cai Wan's murderous gaze, "If you see him again in the future, remember to bring him back to play." ”

"Uh-huh!" The little girl nodded repeatedly.

He had explored many people's ambitions, development potential, and governing philosophy, but still did not work for any specific side, indicating that everyone was not very satisfied with him, at this time, he could consider off-the-market moves, such as ...... "beauty plan"?

It seems that he probably took the crying little girl Zhen Ji as the legendary "Diao Chan" person and shot out, and then was beaten away by the angry Zhen Ji, here, judging from his upright personality, here should be owed an apology to Zhen Ji and Wen Ji, so you can see him at least once in the future, as long as you use it well...... The little beauty is also a beauty.

Boom! I don't know when the assembled gonghou smashed on the coffee table in Cao Cao's hand.

"Slippery hands." Cai Wan picked it up with grace.

Never mind...... Originally, he didn't expect to be able to hide it from her, Cao Cao pretended to be stupid and said: "There is no hurry to persuade the teacher, as long as the evil comes to find enough evidence, with the wisdom of the teacher, it will not sink with a ship that is destined to capsize." ”

"Woo...... A Dian ...... "Cai Yan, who hadn't seen Dian Wei for several days, heard the word "evil", and looked like he wanted to cry or not, but because this thought was diluted a lot by Zhao Yun's appearance, he just whimpered in his mouth and did not shed tears.

Cai Wan didn't comfort his sister very abnormally, just stared at Cao Cao with Konghou in his arms.

"[I guess she is saying, 'The old lady is very angry now, you are responsible for coaxing Wen Ji, coaxing you to look at it'. The "stand-in" gloated on the sidelines.

If "......" is not a "stand-in", it is up to him to decide whether to appear or not, Cao Cao must have thrown him out to make Zhen Ji angry.

"Mengde! Look what I've brought back! Before Cao Cao thought of a countermeasure, Yuan Shao's excited voice came from outside the door.

The fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, oh, it's the fifth duke now, so Yuan Shao is no different from going home in Luoyang, huh...... At least don't worry about him getting lost.

It is said that because he "does not seek progress", the resources of the Yuan family began to tilt towards his younger brother Yuan Shu, but Yuan Shao didn't care about it, and ran to encourage Yuan Shu to work hard, which completely made those who stepped on the low and praised the high unable to start.

The most important thing is that although Yuan Shu himself does not like to see Yuan Shao very much, and always speaks ill of him, if he hears others say bad things about Yuan Shao, he is the first to teach him a lesson, probably "The stupidity of the Yuan family can only be laughed at by his own people"?

Hearing Yuan Shao's noise, Cao Cao immediately thought of why he ran to Yuan's house this time - because Cai Yan couldn't find Dian Wei and always cried, he claimed to go to the house to find some cute animals to play with the girl and left.

"Wen Ji don't cry," Cao Cao persuaded Cai Yan, "Your original uncle brought you back a cute little animal, guess what, is it a foal, a lamb, or a puppy?" Kitten? Maybe a pretty bird? ”

"Hmm...... I like fluffy, fluffy, and nice sounds. Cai Yan was really attracted to attention, sobbing and looking at the main door of the living room.

......The "stand-in" beside Cao Cao disappeared for a moment, and then reappeared with a face full of words.

"Haha! Mende, look! I've never seen such a funny animal! Yuan Shao laughed and walked in from outside the door.

He was followed by an animal covered with white fluff, with straight hooves, a long neck, eyes as shiny as black beans, a mouth that was chewing on something, and a pinch of fluffy white hair on its forehead, which looked like a sheep but was similar in shape to a horse.

"This horse...... What's going on? Cao Cao was stunned for a long time, and he didn't know what to call it.

The animal looked around at the people in the room, and finally its gaze stopped on Cai Yan, it walked over and lowered its body, opened its mouth and shouted: "Chirp~Chirp~"

"Hehe~" Cai Yan burst into tears and laughed, directly hugged the animal's neck, turned over and rode up: "Let's go, let's go find Adian!" ”

Cai Wan didn't hold it, the animal had already rushed out of the door with the little girl, and could only stretch out his hands in a daze.

Cao Cao threw Yuan Shao a look of self-seeking blessing and chased him out with a "stand-in".

"Look, how fast it runs—whew!"
