Zhou Budian nodded." That should be the case. Then, let's pack up and prepare to set off. We don't have much time left."”
Huang Zhong laughed out loud and lost interest in talking to Liu Bei." Wait for me to go see my son."”
He turned around and went into the room. He saw that his son was no longer coughing blood and his face was much ruddy. Although he was still weak, he did not look as painful as before.
"My son, how do you feel?"
He went to the bed and held his son's hand as he asked softly.
"Zhenai, a child prodigy."
Huang Xu only said this one sentence, then the corners of his mouth curled up, and his expression became much gentler.
"Father, he just made me a bowl of soup and added some herbs called ginger and brown sugar. After I drank it, I felt much better.”
" In addition, I heard him say that this time, he wants you to escort him to Xu Capital. It's all for the sake of not having a war in Jing State. I think you should go, and not disobey for me... cough cough..." He coughed twice again, but it was much more relaxed than before.
? Huang Zhong was overjoyed. It was indeed effective. It seemed like he had underestimated this child.
He indeed had abilities that others could not match, otherwise, Cao Cao would not have been concerned about him and sent an envoy to bring him to Xudu.
"Alright, Father will do as you say, but you have to come with me. The Little Lord said that this illness can be cured, but it will take a long time.”
A faint smile appeared on Huang Xu's handsome face.""Very good. I can repay Little Daren. If I can get better, I can help him plan or be a general.”
Huang Zhong rolled his eyes at him, then smiled bitterly and said,""Let's talk about it when we're better."
He was indeed very satisfied with his son and loved him very much.
He had read a lot of books since he was young, and by the time he was five or six, he had already finished reading a few classic Confucian books.
The Analects of Confucius, The Great Learning, The Book of Songs, etc. He had also read many military books, so his thinking and knowledge from a young age were not something that ordinary people could compare to.
Because of the cold, he was weak and sickly, so Huang Zhong forced him to learn martial arts. After many years of teaching, his skills were not bad, but because of the illness, it was difficult to show it.
"Oh, since that's the case, you and I have already made up our minds. Let's follow the Little Lord into the Xu Capital and not delay any further.”
Huang Zhong called his wives and concubines over and gave them a few instructions. Then, he asked the servants to pack up their luggage and travel expenses. In less than the time for an incense stick to burn, his laughter resounded in the courtyard.
Zhou Buyi and Yang Xiu were sitting opposite each other, chatting about the local customs of Xu Du and the wonders of the mountains and rivers.
You have listened to Yang Xiu's show off. Mentality 1, Knowledge 1, Vision 1.
Alright, it was amazing that he could increase his attributes.
Talking to people, especially listening to them represent
Liu Bei was drinking water at the side and could not interrupt. When he heard the laughter, the three of them stood up in unison.
Huang Zhong walked straight to Zhou Buyi and knelt on one knee. He cupped his fists and said in a clear voice,""Little Lord, Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng will follow you from now on.”
"Good!" Liu Bei immediately clapped his hands." As expected of my unsuspecting nephew. You've cured Old General Huang's illness. With this, I can rest assured.”
Huang Zhong laughed dryly and was helped up by Zhou Buyi.
"Uncle Huang Zhong, I'll leave my guards in your hands in the future. They're all generals who haven't made a name for themselves in the Jing State, but we're going to Xu City to make contributions to the Great Han Dynasty, so there's no need to feel that our future is bleak.”
" Hahaha!" "Am I someone who admires fame and fortune?" Huang Zhong laughed. I'm just protecting you for the rest of your life. As long as I, Huang Zhong, am alive, no one can hurt you!”
Zhou Buyi smiled in satisfaction and was led out of the door by Yang Xiu.
After half an hour, they gathered outside the city without delay.
At this time, Yang Xiu's hanging heart could finally be considered to have been put at ease. He originally thought that it would take quite a long time to persuade Huang Zhong's heart, but who knew that it was so easy and fast. In less than half a day, he had already set off with Zhou Buyi with all his heart.
In this way, there was no need to rush. He just needed to speed up.
"Then farewell, Imperial Uncle Liu. We will meet again sooner or later.”
Yang Xiu cupped his fists at Liu Bei before escorting Zhou Buyi into the carriage.
Liu Bei watched them leave with a fake smile. Behind him were over a hundred cavalrymen and his two sworn brothers.
Guan Yu stroked his beard and said coldly,""It's a pity that he's a future heaven-defying person. This child is truly a heaven-bestowed talent.”
"Big brother, where are we going next?”
Liu Bei narrowed his eyes and thought of the leader of the Five Tigers of Jing State that Zhou Buyi had once mentioned. He sighed and said,""Let's go to Lingling and then return to Jing State.”
"Alright!"
……
Xu City, a month later.
During last year's spring planting, the soldiers had gathered at Baima and Guandu. They could only use the people to open up wasteland, increasing the burden. As a result, by the end of the Battle of Guandu, they did not have enough food and grass.
The harvest had been reduced by more than half, and now that it was time for spring planting, a large number of strategists would gather at Cao Cao's residence almost every day to discuss.
"If the soldiers start farming, we will have to give up on attacking Liyang in the north. As a result, our victory at Guandu will naturally be lost.”
A middle-aged Confucian scholar with a serious expression spoke. His eyes were bright, and he didn't smile. His words were firm and decisive, leaving no room for negotiation.
He rejected the suggestions of the advisors.
This person was Cao Cao's number one minister of internal affairs, Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo, whom Cao Cao called " my wife."
The great talent of the Xun family in Yingchuan.
The bearded man sitting on the high platform with his hands on the table and a smile on his face was Cao Cao.
He liked to see the strategists argue endlessly, from which he could learn the strengths of various schools of thought.
"If you have any other ideas, just say them. Don't hide them from me.”
Cao Cao stood up and scanned the crowd.
But no one said anything.
While they were silent, a soldier walked in from outside the hall. He knelt down and cupped his fists."Lord Sikong, Official Yang has returned and brought Zhou Buyi from the Jing state.”
"Oh, Dezu is back!"
Cao Cao waved his hand," Alright, if you guys don't want to tell me, then let that kid tell me. I want to see if he has the ability to call himself a prodigy, haha!”
