Chapter Seventy-Five: Looking for Cao Lin and Winning the Scheme
Bai Yu said a word, and Cao Pi clenched his fists when he heard it. Although Cao Pi didn't want to admit that Bai Yu liked Chai Xuan, he couldn't turn a blind eye.
Looking at Cao Pi's sullen expression, Bai Yu smiled lightly, "It's not because of you. It's because someone once told me that Chai Xuan doesn't belong to our world, and she has to leave here one day, otherwise she will ......"
"Otherwise what!" Cao Pi's face sank, and his eyes were full of nervousness.
Bai Yu's eyes sank, and his tone was choked, "Otherwise, you will die." ”
Such an ending, he didn't want to believe it, but he had to believe it. He really couldn't gamble with Chai Xuan's life.
Hearing this, Cao Pi was also shocked. I was stunned for a long time, but my fists clenched. "Bai Yu, what are you talking about?" The eyes were cold, and the murderous aura was suddenly born.
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you should ask your nobles, so why do you need to question your ministers here." Bai Yu's eyes glanced at him, and the corners of his mouth were half-hooked. It seems that Cao Pi is suspecting that he is lying to him.
Cao Pi was dumbfounded, his eyes down and silent. What he expects is that Chai Xuan is always there, and God really wants to make such a joke with him.
"It's okay, it's okay......" Cao Pi sighed in the sky, forcibly suppressing the tears from the corners of his eyes. Swallow all the bitter scriptures back into your stomach.
If God really wants to take her away, then he will go with her to that so-called other world. Dead or alive, he would definitely let her go so easily.
"Bai Yu listened. From now on, you will be made a captain of the forbidden army. In these days when I went on the expedition, I was in charge of the movement of the forbidden army in the palace. The only condition is that you have to make sure that Chai Xuan is safe and sound before I come back. Cao Pi turned around and said fiercely.
"Your Majesty, you ......"
The sudden order caught Bai Yu off guard. Didn't Cao Pi doubt himself and Chai Xuan, why did he make such a decision.
"In this palace, I don't have anyone to trust. No one will really protect her except you. So, Bai Yu, if anything happens to Chai Xuan during my absence, I won't be the first to spare you! His eyes were slight, but they were full of true feelings.
Facing such a gaze, Bai Yu finally knew why Chai Xuan was willing to stay by Cao Pi's side. Cao Pi hurriedly called out that everyone had doubts, but only for Chai Xuan, there was always only trust and concern. Perhaps, these are the only ones that are enough to love with all their hearts.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, even if the minister fights for this life, he will definitely protect the nobles." Bai Yu took half a step back and knelt on the ground to receive the order.

The cold wind is dashing, the war horses are roaring, and the heaven and earth are empty and separated by one side; I was worried about the wild goose, but I had no choice but to bow my head.
"I heard that His Majesty has made a southern expedition from Xudu, and several roads are advancing side by side, and the momentum is like a bamboo. Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu and other generals defeated Sun Sheng, broke Lu Fan, and burned Zhuge Jin ......"
What Xiaoman said was that his mouth was like a river, and he didn't stumble at all. But Chai Xuan could wrinkle her eyebrows when she heard it. I really couldn't pretend anymore, so I directly interrupted it: "Okay, okay, Xiaoman said something I don't know?" All this information was from the previous month, is there any other news about Your Majesty? ”
For several days, no news of the battle came back. Chai Xuan couldn't help but regret why she didn't know more about Chai Xuan's attack on Wu in the first place. Maybe you can speculate when Cao Pi will come back.
There was no news that Chai Xuan wanted, and Xiaoman was also very helpless. But no matter how urgent it is, it won't help. After all, this Luoyang is hundreds of miles away from the battlefield, how can there be new news every day.
"Noble ......" Xiao Man rolled the corners of his mouth helplessly and shook his head.
Seeing Xiaoman like this, he also realized that he was a little worried too much. After all, this is Cao Pi's first time attacking Wu, and nothing will happen if he doesn't triumph.
"Well, let's not talk about him. Then let's talk about you, in the past few days, Han Xuan has changed. Chai Xuan changed the subject and asked.
These days, Chai Xuan has been burning Xiaoman, as a younger sister, to send food and clothes to Han Xuan every day, plus regular sending to ask for warmth.
"In the past few days, my brother's smile has become more, and his speech is not as blunt as before." Xiaoman is really talking about Han Xuan as her brother now, and every time she cares, it comes from the bottom of her heart, not acting.
"But nobleman, why did you let me say that I was secretly stolen? And only let me ask him about what happened when he was a child, not about that day? Xiao Man looked at Chai Xuan with a questioning face.
"Isn't this helping you to reminisce, if he is really your brother, wouldn't everyone be happy?"
It is said that this is both soft and hard, but once Han Xuan's iron bone is covered, it is estimated that even if he is killed, he will not say half a word. However, this soft plan is not necessarily.
First confuse his mind with sweet words like Xiaoman, and then when he believes in Xiaoman, he will wait for the opportunity to extract the information from his mouth. When the time comes, Han Xuan will definitely bow down to his subordinates without any resistance and tell the truth obediently.
Quack, I'm so smart.
Looking at Chai Xuan with a weird smile on her face, Xiao Man couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body. "Noble?" Xiao Man poked Chai Xuan's shoulder uneasily, for fear that she would laugh and go away.
"Alright, alright. I asked Qiu Ling to play chess, so I won't say much. You remember to go see your brother later. Chai Xuan got up with a smile, patted Xiaoman's face jokingly, and flew out of the door.
Looking at Chai Xuan's back, Xiao Man shook his head helplessly. Obviously, he was worried just now, but why did he change his face in a blink of an eye, is this really worried or fake worried. Moreover, she Chai Xuan can't play chess, what kind of game is this.
Xiao Man was about to pack up and go out, but caught a glimpse of the letter on the corner of the table. Only then did I remember that the letter seemed to mention that Cao Pi was probably going to come back in the next few days. It's just that this letter arrived a few days ago, and I've been busy with things like this, and I forgot about it when I came and went.
Xiao Man stepped forward to re-tell the letter and picked it up to take a look, and the payment on it was actually Zihuan. Mom, it seems that this is Cao Pi's letter again, why is he so careless, he didn't even show it to Chai Xuan.
With that, he put down the letter and walked out the door. She has to call Chai Xuan back quickly, in case Cao Pi returns today, then she will have a big deal.
*
Let's talk about the battle of Wei and Wu, Sun Quan refused to defend Linjiang, and several fronts were defeated, and only Zhu Ran won. Cao Pi originally had the chance to win, but unexpectedly encountered an epidemic, and Cao Pi had no choice but to withdraw from the army.
Now that the war has been decided, Cao Pi's heart has already flown to Luoyang. wrote a letter early, sent someone to Chai Xuan quickly, and said that he would go back in a few days. He and the soldiers and horses were quick to whip up, and rushed back day and night.
All the soldiers felt strange. I didn't lose any battles, why did Your Majesty withdraw in such a hurry. On the contrary, it is a rest and recuperation of the army all the way, and a cure of the sick.
But they don't know that their son of heaven is tied in his heart, and his heart is like an arrow.
*
It is said that Chai Xuan held the chess pieces and went to Qiu Ling excitedly to ask her to play chess. First, it is to pass the time, and secondly, when Cao Pi comes back, he can also play chess with him.
Turning around the garden, I saw a little girl in pink squatting in a corner of the garden. Chai Xuan's eyebrows tightened, and that enthusiasm suddenly surged up again.
"What are you crying about?" Chai Xuan stepped forward, tilted her head to look at the crying maid who beat her chest, and asked.
The maid rubbed her teary eyes, saw that the person who appeared in front of her was Chai Xuan, and hurriedly knelt down and cried: "Nobleman, the slave maid is the maid who takes care of Lin Gongzi." But just now, Lin Gongzi said that he was thirsty, and the slave maid went to help find water. I thought to myself, just for a while, there must be nothing. But when the slave and maid returned, they were gone......"
Cao Lin, isn't he Qiu Ling's son? This son is lost, he must be in a hurry. Chai Xuan directly threw away the chess pieces in her arms and pulled up the crying little girl in the dark.
"You say, where might Cao Lin go to play?" Chai Xuan said worriedly.
This Qiu Ling is the only friend in her palace, and she has to help find her son if she loses herself, otherwise with her temperament, she will definitely worry about it.
"Lin Gongzi's favorite, hiding at the back of the garden, maybe there." The maid pondered for a moment, and then said, "In this way, the nobleman will find one side, and the slave and maid will find the other, and I may be able to find it sooner." ”
"Oak, no problem." After that, Chai Xuan made a gesture and pulled the little girl away from the garden.
Let's say that Chai Xuan turned around the garden several times, her throat was almost hoarse, and she didn't see Cao Lin's figure, and when she passed by a courtyard, she suddenly heard a sound in the room. I went in to see if Cao Lin was playing here.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the yard, I heard a chaotic sound of bells in the house. Chai Xuan's heart tightened: It's bad, Cao Lin's kid won't be playing big!
Thinking about it, I rushed into the house, but saw a man covering his clothes, bumping into him headlessly. Out of kindness, Chai Xuan stepped forward and pulled it. The eyes were immediately stunned.
"Hongxuan, why are you here?"
Chai Xuan was surprised to lift the shirt, twisting her eyebrows and staring at the white feather whose clothes were a little messy. Looking for a child by himself, how did he find Bai Yu instead.
It was Chai Xuan who appeared before the meeting, and Bai Yu was even more surprised. "Chai Xuan, I just want to ask you. What are you doing in such a place? ”
"I heard a maid say that Lin'er came here. I'm worried that something will happen to him, so I'll take a look! Chai Xuan frowned slightly and explained.
is also looking for a child, and he and Chai Xuan appeared in the same place at the same time, which is too much of a coincidence! Bai Yu's heart was suddenly shocked, and his face turned blue instantly, "It's not good, we have been tricked!" ”
"Medium?" Chai Xuan listened to Bai Yu's speculation in a daze, and felt faintly uneasy in her heart.
The two of them, who reacted that something was wrong, hurriedly rushed out of the door, but saw a pair of people pouring into the courtyard, led by the Empress Dowager Bian. The two of them looked shocked, and they saluted and greeted. However, it seems that it is too late.
Bian's thin eyebrows tightened, looking at the embarrassed white feather, and his face suddenly sank: "What's going on?" ”
"Back to the Queen Mother, the minister heard a servant girl say during the search that Gongzi Lin was missing and wanted the minister to help find it, so the minister would come here." Bai Yu replied on his knees, but his face was really ugly.
