It seemed that he was too excited.
Xun Yu picked Lu Yu up.
"Little fellow, uncle will take you to Chenliu County. Uncle will take you to see the Duke of Cao.”
Chenliu County, Yanzhou's capital was Juancheng, but the wealthiest city was Chenliu County!
Cao Cao was Cao Cao, the herdsman of Yanzhou elected by the officials…
Everyone was shocked.
What was Xun Yu doing here? Everyone's hearts were clear.
He would choose a young man with wisdom and intelligence, and Cao Cao and Xun Yu would personally nurture him…so that he could become a useful adviser in the future.
But now…he actually proposed to bring a five-year-old little Lu Yu to meet Cao Cao.
There was a profound meaning to this.
Many of Cao Ren's deputies could not help but feel envious.
He was thinking in his heart, how lucky this child was to be favored by Xun Yu and nurtured by Cao Cao!
However…
"I'm not going…I don't want to go to Chen Liu. I don't want to see Cao Gong. I want to follow my sister. Put me down, put me down…"
Resist…
The five-year-old Lu Yu seemed to be very resistant. Even though he was being hugged by Xun Yu, he struggled desperately.
"Advisor Jun, put him down first. He…he is still a child after all.”"Even if you want to train him, we have to get Miss Cai Yan's permission!" Cao Ren advised.”
Uh…Xun Yu realized that he was too rash.
Because of his desire for talent, he actually scared the little fellow.
After all…he was only five years old.
"Right, right, right. General Cao Ren, where is Miss Cai Yan? I have to pay a proper visit to this talented woman.”
"In the military camp." Cao Ren waved his hand and ordered the deputy general. " The two of you, quickly go and invite Miss Cai Yan…" After giving these instructions, he called Xun Yu and Xun You," The two military strategists, please go to the tent first. We will wait for a moment…"
Just like that, they carefully held Little Lu Yu's hand and walked into the tent.
At this moment, Lu Yu's lips curled up.
A faint smile appeared on his face. He looked at the back of the deputy general and muttered in his heart,"Sister Zhao Ji, our bitter days are about to end!”
……
……
In the military camp.
In a simple tent.
A woman was gently plucking the strings of a zither. Her clear and bright eyes, curved eyebrows, and fair skin revealed a determined expression.
She was not very old, only seventeen or eighteen years old, but her face seemed to have been baptized by time…
She didn't have the delicate, cute, and moving look of her age, but she had the unique charm of a mature woman.
Her name was Cai Zhaoji.
A few years ago, he picked up a swaddled baby in the suburbs of Luoyang. There was a sign around his neck with the orphan's name on it-Lu Yu.
She called this little brother Lu Yu.
When Dong Zhuo was in chaos, she ignored her father Cai Yong's objection and insisted on bringing Lu Yu's younger brother to the south to find his family.
Naturally, they couldn't find his family.
However, he had also escaped the disputes between Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun, and Lu Bu in the court, and escaped the plunder of the South Xiongnu's King Zuoxian.
She had also escaped the fate of a talented girl being kidnapped by the South Xiongnu!
Now, his father Cai Yong had died tragically under Wang Yun's blade.
She was living alone with her brother, Lu Yu.
Luckily, under Lu Yu's younger brother's childish suggestion, she went to Cao Cao.
He found a quiet place in the military camp in Yanzhou.
" Brother Lu Yu, you're still so young." Cai Zhaoji sighed. "No matter what, I will definitely bring you up and let you start a family…"
As she said this, Cai Zhaoji looked around the tent and saw many bamboo slips.
He muttered," Sell these ancient books…and make some money. Perhaps, Brother Lu Yu can get a good evaluation in the monthly evaluation. Then, he can go to the Imperial College and be elected as a filial and honest…local official…"
These bamboo slips were ancient books written by Cai Zhaoji from her father Cai Yong's collection. There were hundreds of volumes in her account, and she had been writing them for more than a year…
Thinking of this, the bitterness on Cai Zhaoji's face was swept away.
He slowly walked away from the zither and opened the bamboo scroll…
He continued to write down the documents in his memory.
The more he wrote, the more money he could earn. Lu Yu's younger brother would have a higher chance of getting good reviews.
Unfortunately, this was a chaotic world, and ancient literature and books were not easy to sell. After all, it was an extravagant hope for the common people to even have enough to eat. This kind of spiritual food…had no market.
"Sigh…"
Cai Zhaoji sighed again.
" Brother Lu Yu has to take a famous person as his master…Also, he is five years old and is growing. He has to eat meat once a month…Sigh, he can't live without money…"
Looking at the few five baht coins in her pocket, Cai Zhaoji couldn't help but sigh.
In this chaotic world, it was not easy for a woman, especially a talented woman with integrity, to earn money.
Cao Cao had taken them in, but that didn't mean that they could live comfortably.
Faced with the Yellow Turban remnants who were wreaking havoc everywhere in Yanzhou, Cao Cao, who could not even take care of himself, obviously did not have the extra energy to care about Cai Zhaoji and her brother.
"Lady Zhao Ji…Lady Zhao Ji…are you there? Are you there?"
"Lady Zhao Ji…where are you?"
Shouts came from outside the tent.
This rough voice came from the vice-general in the military camp. Cai Zhaoji was slightly stunned and seemed a little nervous…
"Call? Call me? Why did you call me?"
Cai Zhaoji raised her head as she muttered softly.
However, she saw four to five deputies barging into her camp.
Cai Zhaoji recognized the leader. He was Cao Ren's younger brother, Cao Chun. In this camp, his status was second only to General Cao Ren.
"General Cao, men and women shouldn't touch each other…You broke into my barracks? This is…"
"Lady Zhao Ji…quickly come with us.”
"Leave? But…"
" There aren't that many buts…" Cao Chun appeared very anxious. "It's Xun Yu, the military advisor beside Cao Gong. He wants to see you.”
Oh…the military advisor beside Cao Gong? Cai Zhaoji was shocked.
She had been in Cao Cao's camp for more than a year, but the number of times she had seen Cao Cao was only once or twice…
Even the people around Cao Cao rarely paid attention to her, the daughter of an old friend.
" Alright…Alright…" Cai Zhaoji agreed and quickly followed Cao Chun.
