Xu Du.

Shang Shutai.

Xun Yu was looking at a piece of paper in a daze.

This document was passed down by the current Xu Duling Du Ji.

Du Ji, a native of Jingzhao, is a good friend of Geng Ji in the service.

Geng Ji, a descendant of Geng Yi, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, is a person who is very loyal to the Son of Heaven.

Geng Ji's mansion is next door to Xun Yu's house.

Once, Du Ji left Jingzhao and rushed to Geng Ji, and the two often talked all night, and their voices were very loud.

Xun Yu heard it once in a while, and felt that Du Ji was young and had extraordinary knowledge, so he recommended him and asked him to be a Shangshulang in Shangshutai temporarily.

Originally, Xun Yu wanted to recommend Du Yi to Sikong Cao Cao.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao had already decided to abandon the Central Plains and leave.

After Cao Cao sent Guo Jia to take away the Son of Heaven and Xu Duling's full favor, Xun Yu enabled Du Ji and let Du Ji take over Xu Duling to ensure the continued operation of the entire imperial court, which looked exactly like Cao Cao was when he was there.

At this time, Du Yi reported in the document that after the families of the ministers that Cao Cao had taken away had left, many people had begun to suspect that these family members had left.

Although Xun Yu had already arranged for people to take over the mansions of Cao Cao's ministers, making them look like normal.

However, paper can't contain fire after all.

If you see things get more intense, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Nowadays, there is almost no defense in Xudu and other places, and there are only some scattered city defense troops.

Once there is a rebellion, the Central Plains will be ruined again.

In addition, Xun Yu also got a piece of information late last night, which made him restless.

That is, an urgent battle report came from Tongguan, and the army led by Cao Cao was defeated by Ma Chao and more than 10,000 soldiers were killed.

Among them, the general Cao Hong was also killed.

Cao Cao himself was forced by Ma Chao to cut his beard and abandon his robe.

If it weren't for the reinforcement of the Wancheng Jiangdong army, Cao Cao might have been wiped out in this battle.

At this moment, looking at Du Yi's documents, Xun Yu kept reviewing the bits and pieces of Cao Cao over the years.

I didn't expect that one day, I would go to such a field with him.

I think that at the beginning, the reason why I took refuge in him was because he might be the only powerful and conscientious minister in the Han Dynasty.

Over the years, how much effort have you put in to help him grow step by step?

After all, at this moment, the dream also woke up.

Xun Yu put Du Ji's documents on the desk, and he was about to return the book to Du Ji.

But I saw a sound of footsteps.

A figure stopped at the door of Shangshutai and said with a smile: "Xun Aiqing, are you still busy?" ”

Xun Yu raised his head.

I saw a young man with a weak crown, who looked a little thin, wearing a black robe, and walked in.

Xun Yu hurriedly stood up and greeted him, and saluted: "Your Majesty! ”

The young man was Liu Xie, the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Xie hurriedly helped Xun Yu up, and said with a smile: "Xun Aiqing, please get up quickly!" ”

Xun Yu got up.

Liu Xie glanced around.

Xun Yu knew that Liu Xie was worried about others, and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, you have all gone home." ”

Liu Xie nodded and said excitedly: "The information you gave me, I read it, I am so excited!" ”

"Cao Cao, a traitor, really deserves it!"

"In the past few years, I'm about to be driven crazy by him!"

"I really want to stab him a dozen times!"

"Ma Chao is really good."

"It's a pity that I am now a 'fake' Son of Heaven, otherwise, I would have sent a messenger to reward Ma Chao!"

"What's even more a pity is that Cao Cao, the traitor, didn't die!"

"It's all to blame on the Wancheng Jiangdong Army, if they don't rush to help, how good it would be for Cao Cao, a traitor, to die!"

Xun Yu sighed.

Liu Xie laughed and said to Xun Yu: "I know that Xun Aiqing has also worked with Cao Cao, a traitor, and has some feelings. But Cao Cao, a traitor, was fierce and cruel, and even killed my concubine and slaughtered those loyal ministers. ”

"Now that he's abandoned us, we're looking for a chance to make a comeback!"

"I came here today just to ask Xun Aiqing, now that Cao Cao was defeated in Tongguan but did not retreat, it seems that he doesn't want to come back. In that case, shouldn't we recruit soldiers and prepare to resist Yuan Shao, who may go south, and Jiangdong, who may go north? ”

Xun Yu looked up at Liu Xie, and felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

Resist Yuan Shao going south?

Koto in the north?

This day, he is still dreaming of such a spring and autumn season!

Although he saved the Son of Heaven, it was not because he felt that the Son of Heaven had the possibility of recovering the Han Dynasty.

It's because he wants to leave the last drop of blood for Dahan.

Moreover, he didn't know how powerful Yuan Shao and Jiangdong were!

In the past few years, if it weren't for Cao Cao's support, the Central Plains would have been annexed by one of these two!

At this moment, facing Liu Xie's somewhat innocent eyes, Xun Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, do you really think that these people in our hands can make a difference in this troubled world?" ”

"Your Majesty, over the years, we have been able to live in peace, not because of how powerful we are, not because of how many people with lofty ideals in the world are worried about the glory of the Han Dynasty, but because Cao Cao is protecting us!"

"Has Your Majesty really forgotten that before Cao Cao, Your Majesty was held hostage by Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Guo Ci and others?"

"At that time, among the heroes of the world, who was the king?"

"It's not these hundred officials in the court today."

"Who of these hundred officials can really succeed?"

"If you want to stand firm in troubled times, you can't rely on these officials in the court to quote the classics to succeed!"

"We need generals who can fight well and command one side!"

"We need a strategist who can deter these generals!"

"Of these hundred officials in the court, none of them are so talented."

Liu Xie's face changed suddenly.

There was a look of disbelief in his eyes.

He has always firmly believed that Xun Yu is a talented countryman, and he also has a loyalty to the Han Dynasty.

didn't expect Xun Yu to say such a thing!

Liu Xie's face was a little angry, and he suppressed his roar: "Xun Aiqing's intention, without him Cao Cao, I can only be in the wilderness?" ”

"Without Cao Cao, these hundred officials can only be useless?"

"Laughing to death!"

"Kong Rong can't do it?"

"Kong Rong has also been a Beihai phase!"

"Geng Ji can't do it?"

"Geng Jizu is Geng Yi, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, a family of generals!"

Xun Yu suppressed his impatience and said bitterly: "Your Majesty, these people can't do it. Although Kong Rong has been the minister of the North Sea, he does not know how to lead troops to fight at all. ”

"Although Geng Ji is both civil and military, it is a soldier on paper, and he is brave."

"To lead troops to fight, these are not at all, but to be able to command thousands of troops, order prohibitions, order the whole army, and let the soldiers die for it!"

"It's not just a matter of reading a few books and dancing a few swords."

"It's not like you can just look at the war book."

"The talent of civil and military officials, how can the minister not know?"

"If they really have this talent, the minister would have arranged for them to the right position!"

"Besides, Li Dao, Guo Ci and the like, how could they understand this? But, they—"

"Enough!" With a roar, Liu Xietong looked at Xun Yu with red eyes, as if he was going to kill someone, "In the end, you still think that I can't do it, and you think that Cao Cao is a traitor." So, you don't want to recruit people for me. ”

"You are so optimistic about Cao Cao, a traitor, why don't you leave with him?"

"I don't believe it, without him Cao Cao, I really can't achieve anything!"

After speaking, he threw down his sleeves and walked away quickly.

Xun Yu looked at the back of Liu Xie leaving, and let out a long sigh.

This is the son of heaven, there is ambition.

Unfortunately, he didn't have the ability to sustain this ambition.

If it continues, I'm afraid there will be another disaster.

Returning to his seat with a tired body and kneeling down, Xun Yu hesitated, but still picked up the brush and wrote on a blank piece of paper.

Although it is still the same as usual.

However, he felt that the rod was like a thousand pounds.

On the paper, neat words appeared: "Tell Wu Hou."

I can't take care of Cao Cao anymore.

Now, in this Central Plains, we can only hope for Jiangdong Wuhou.

Perhaps, he will be another Cao Cao, but at least this big man can survive for a few decades, and the Son of Heaven can still survive.

Otherwise, whether the Son of Heaven tosses it himself or attracts Yuan Shao, it will be a catastrophe.

Finally finished writing the letter, Xun Yu blew dry the ink stains, then put the letter into a bamboo tube, found a small official, and asked him to send it to Wu County, Wu County, Jiangdong urgently.

The little official took the letter, glanced at Xun Yu, left quickly, left the palace, and rushed to the post station.

However, instead of handing the letter to the post officer, he hid in a corner, opened it quickly, and glanced at it.

His face was full of shock.

The letter was quickly folded again, and the little official hurriedly rushed to Geng Ji's mansion.

Geng Ji was eating.

Hearing that the servant arrived, he greeted him with a smile.

This little official has always been Xun Yu's confidant.

It took him a lot of effort to buy him.

He must have something important to find this time.

The little official stuffed the letter into Geng Ji's hand and said in a low voice: "Act quickly!" ”

After saying that, he rushed away.

Geng Ji took the letter and hurriedly returned to the bedroom and opened it.

Inside is a letter written by Xun Yu to Lu Yi, the Marquis of Wu, Jiangdong.

Geng Ji squinted his eyes, and his face was full of murderous aura.

This Xun Yu is simply a wall grass!

I always thought that he had the style of a countryman and was loyal to the court, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.

This Cao Cao left.

This Xun Yu actually wanted to introduce Jiangdong Lu Yi.

It's just disgusting!

What is the difference between this Jiangdong Lu Yi and Cao Cao?

As soon as he arrived, he was the second Cao Cao!

Now that Cao Cao's army has withdrawn, the entire Central Plains is the territory of the Han Dynasty.

At this time, instead of taking the opportunity to recruit soldiers to resist the possible attacks of Yuan Shao and Jiangdong, so as to restore the glory of the Han Dynasty, he thought of luring thieves to come, and his heart could be punished!

Geng Ji tucked the letter into his sleeve, quickly walked out of the bedroom, left the mansion, and rode straight to the palace.

I want to show this letter to His Majesty, so that he can make a decision as soon as possible.

This Xun Yu, although it is a pity, but he can't be used by me and become a thief, so he can't be left!

Geng Ji rushed to the palace and showed the letter to Liu Xie, the son of heaven.

Liu Xie looked at the letter and trembled with anger.

Geng Ji said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you can't wait!" These days, the reason why he hasn't done anything is not because he is worried about Cao Cao's return, but because he wants to introduce Jiangdong! ”

"Kill him immediately, and then reveal the fact of Cao Cao's departure to the world, recruit the soldiers of the Central Plains, and restore the glory of the Han Dynasty!"

Liu Xie clenched his fists and closed his eyes.
