On the way to Cai Yong's residence, Yuan Shao secretly asked the system elf,""Help me check Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan's fourth dimension?”
" Ding-dong. Please wait a moment. Checking…Xiahou Dun Commander: 91 Force: 91 Intelligence: 63 Political: 65. Xiahou Yuan Commander: 90 Force: 90 Intelligence: 65 Political: 64. The System detected Xiahou Dun's special skill, Godly Speed. People with this attribute can run 1000 miles in the day and 800 miles at night. They can also lead their generals and soldiers to increase their fighting spirit and strength. In addition, Xiahou Yuan's attribute of 'Good Se' was detected: The most skilled archer uses a bow to ambush an enemy general. When this attribute is triggered, strength 2.”
"Is that so? It fits." The thoughts in his heart flashed through his mind quickly. On a closer look, Xiahou Dun was eight feet tall and had a fierce expression. He looked left and right from time to time and looked like a hot-tempered person. He looked at Xiahou Yuan, who was 7 feet 8 inches tall and carried an iron bow on his back. Although he didn't know how strong the bow was, his eyes were sharp and his right hand was always on the hilt.
While Yuan Shao was watching the Xiahou brothers, Cao Cao and the other two were also watching Yuan Shao from time to time. It should be said that Dian Wei, who was riding a snow green horse behind Yuan Shao, did not speak, and the atmosphere became much colder.
In a trance, the Cai Mansion arrived. Yuan Shao looked up and saw that someone had written the Cai Mansion in official script. The pen tip was pointed and the strokes seemed to be done in one go.
"Phew!" Yuan Shao dismounted and before he could say anything, Cao Cao walked up and knocked on the door, shouting,""I'm Cao Mengde, and I'm here to visit Teacher.”
The door slowly opened, and an old man in his forties with a white beard walked out. He was dressed in a deep robe and bowed to Cao Cao."Lord Cao, my master has been waiting for a long time. Please come this way…Isn't this Lord Yuan? Why are you here?" The butler turned his body to the side and found Yuan Shao. He knew a little about the most outstanding son of Runan's Yuan family and the influential figures in Luoyang.
"Meng De invited me. If it's inconvenient, I'll take my leave.”Yuan Shao pretended to turn around and leave when he heard that.
"Hey! We're already here. If we don't go in to pay a visit, Teacher will have objections, right?”Seeing this, Cao Cao immediately stepped forward and grabbed Yuan Shao's arm, trying to persuade him.
Cao Mengde! He dared to threaten me, but what he said was right. Cai Yong is a great scholar of the present age. Once my disrespectful behavior gets out, my reputation will be ruined!
"Then I'll respectfully obey. Please, Brother Meng De!”Although he was displeased, Yuan Shao still wore a smile on his face. He slightly bowed, placed his left hand on his waist, and stretched out his right hand to make a gesture of invitation.
"Benchu, you and I will travel together." Cao Cao thought," This is bad. I'm angry. After all, I've been friends with Yuan Benchu for so many years. I, Cao Mengde, know Yuan Benchu best."
Yuan Shao followed Cao Cao's words and followed him. The Cai Residence was not big, and it was only a hundred steps from the main gate to the main hall. After entering the main hall, Yuan Shao sat on the right side, while Cao Cao sat on the left side.
Soon, Cai Yong arrived. Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and saw a plain Confucian robe and a sage crown on his head. He was simple and unadorned, but his beard was long and his face was like jade. He emitted an elegant and pure aura, making people know that he was a well-read and elegant person.
"Yuan Benchu greets Grand Scholar Cai.”Yuan Shao stood up and bowed to Cai Yong, who was sitting on the main seat, with a respectful and natural expression.
"Meng De. At the beginning, you came to imitate my humble home, and I didn't welcome you far away. I hope you can forgive me.”Cai Yong said with a smile, tugging his long beard.
"Student Cai is a great scholar of the world. I wanted to come and visit you a long time ago, but I was busy with work and couldn't get away.”After Yuan Shao finished speaking, he even raised his sleeves to cover the corners of his eyes and wiped away his unwarranted tears.
"Hey! Nephew, you don't have to be like this. Besides, this old man is also guilty. If it weren't for His Majesty's kindness, I…Sigh!”Cai Yong sighed helplessly.
"Teacher, you need to advise the Emperor to stay away from the Ten Attendants when you return to the capital this time.”Cao Cao held the long lock with his hand, his face full of hatred.
"Ever since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has been deceived by the delusions and has killed countless loyal and loyal people. Now, the Ten Attendants of the Eternal had wreaked havoc in the government and the people, causing them to be in dire straits. We have enjoyed the salary of the Han Dynasty for generations. We should uproot this nonsense for the country of the Han Dynasty. What do you think of Meng De and Benchu?”Cai Yong said with a worried expression.
" It's not difficult to get rid of the Ten Attendants of the Imperial Court. All we need is a jailer, but the key is the person behind the Ten Attendants of the Imperial Court…" Cao Cao paused.
"Hey! Meng De, let's not talk about state affairs today. Let's just talk about romance. What do you think?”Yuan Shao changed the topic.
"This…Alright, I wonder if this nephew has any good works?”Cai Yong didn't mention it anymore.
"Recently, I have been deeply moved. I have a poem that I hope Grand Scholar Cai can enlighten me.”
Yuan Shao slowly stood up, holding a bronze wine cup in his hand. He walked to the center with wobbly steps and slowly walked over with his head raised."I advise you to get drunk tonight and not talk about tomorrow's matters in front of the wine cup. Cherish the host's heart, wine deep affection. Worry about the shortage of spring water, do not complain about the full cup. How long can life be?”
Silence! Silence! Cao Cao and Cai Yong narrowed their eyes and savored the taste. For Dian Wei, who was illiterate, it was like playing the lute to a cow.
"Good! Although this is neither a poem nor an ode, if you read it carefully, it has a different charm of life, don't you think? Meng De." Cai Yong couldn't help but nod in praise.
"Benchu, I have known you since young, but I didn't expect you to have such literary talent. Admirable! I admire you!" Cao Cao asked in disbelief.
"This…Oh right, Uncle told me to do something important today? I'll take my leave first. There's no need to send me off. Dian Wei, let's go." Cold sweat broke out on Yuan Shao's forehead. He was afraid that Cao Mengde would find out that he was an impostor, so he quickly got up and left.
"Yes! My lord!" Dian Wei responded honestly and followed him.
"This…Nephew Benchu, take care. I won't send you off.”Seeing Yuan Shao so determined, Cai Yong did not decline.
After leaving the Cai Residence, Yuan Shao waved his horsewhip. The horse was whipped fiercely, and it galloped forward in pain.
"Jia, Dian Wei, follow me back to the residence!"
"Yes!"
In Sikong Manor, Yuan Shao had just dismounted when Uncle Fu ran out anxiously, panting,"First…Duke…Son, the angel is here. Master wants you to get ready.”
How could he be so fast! Angels were all eunuchs. They represented the Emperor! Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel anxious. He suddenly saw Uncle Fu and immediately thought of an idea. He pulled Uncle Fu and whispered,"Barkley, you go first. Help me stall the angel. Just say that I'm taking a bath and changing my clothes, burning incense and praying. If necessary, you can offer gold and silver. Listen to me first. This group of eunuchs won't give up until they see a rabbit. If we go back and tell Zhang Rang and the others, then Zhang Rang will smear the Emperor. It's a small loss of official position, but it might affect my father's official fortune.”Then, he patted Barkley on the shoulder.
"Alright, Young Master, I understand.”Barkley turned around and left.
Hurriedly returning to his room, with the help of Madam Yang and Xiao Hong, Yuan Shao quickly took a bath and changed into a clean inner shirt. He then put on a pitch-black long robe with a curved skirt. Yuan Shao looked exceptionally energetic.
"I'll go out first. The angel is still waiting for me.”Yuan Shao adjusted his collar and said to Madam Yang.
"Then husband, be careful ~ Ah!" Madam Yang was like a wife waiting for her husband to return home. She stretched out her fair and delicate hand and gently helped Yuan Shao smooth out the wrinkles on his skirt.
"Wait for me to come back!" Yuan Shao didn't dare to look into Madam Yang's beautiful eyes, afraid that he would sink. He could only harden his heart and not look at her, turning around and leaving.
Madam Yang looked at Yuan Shao's gradually receding back and muttered something in a low voice,""Liu, although you gave birth to three sons for your husband, you didn't capture his heart. The position of the wife will definitely be mine. Let's wait and see.”
Then, Madam Yang walked back to her room with a twist of her small waist.
Unfortunately, Yuan Shao didn't know about this at all. Of course, he didn't want to know.
When Yuan Shao walked into the hall, Xu Da. Su Lie. Fang Xuanling and the others had been waiting for a long time. Yuan Shao gave them a meaningful glance before turning to the beardless, fair-skinned man who was about sixteen or seventeen years old. He bowed and said with a smile,"I am Yuan Shao. I was overjoyed when I heard that the angel had rushed over, so I took a bath and changed my clothes. I was delayed for some time.”
"Lord Yuan, no, I should call you Si Li Lieutenant. My surname is Zhang. I came today to announce the imperial edict.”Then, he took out an orange scroll from his sleeve and raised it up high.
"Pa!" Yuan Shao's face was serious as he knelt on the ground with his hands raised, palms facing up, and said,""I, Yuan Shao, accept the decree. May my emperor live forever!”
" In accordance with the will of the heavens, the Emperor issued an edict saying: The former West Garden Central Army Lieutenant Yuan Benchu sympathized with his subordinates during his term of office. He was conscientious and diligent in his work. When he was young, he had been filial to his father for six years. Such a person with both ability and virtue is the pillar of our Darkhan Dynasty. It is now decided to grant Yuan Shao the title of Si Li Colonel, hoping that he will continue to work hard and respect this position.”After the eunuch finished speaking, he handed the imperial edict to Yuan Shao.
"Long live my Emperor, long live my Emperor, long live my Emperor. I, Yuan Shao, will do my best to shed my last drop of blood for my Great Han.”After saying that, he took the imperial edict and stood up to hand it to Fang Xuanling.
"I know that you must be extremely tired after coming all the way here. I, Yuan, am not talented, so I have prepared some small items. They are all insignificant items. I hope you will not decline. Barkley, bring it up!" Without giving the eunuch a chance to respond, he shouted at the door.
"Hey! Coming." Barkley ran all the way with a wooden box in his hand. He came to the eunuch and opened the box. The golden light almost blinded everyone's eyes.
"Lord Yuan, this…then I will respectfully obey. When I return, I will put in a few good words for uncle.”The young eunuch focused his gaze and saw that there were ten of them. Greed flashed across his eyes and he immediately reached out to grab the wooden box, as if he was afraid that he would run away.
"Then please put in a good word for me, Angel.”Yuan Shao's attitude was very humble because he knew in his heart that the King of Hell was easy to see. The reason why little ghosts were difficult to deal with.
"I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first. Lord Yuan, I won't send you off.”
"Angel, please take care!"
