After moving to Changyi, Cao Cao hastily dealt with the affairs and dragged Xi Zhicai along to visit the great sage. He even insisted on dragging Cao Yu along.
Considering that Yuzhou was Yuan Shu's territory, it would not be surprising if this ambitious fellow did anything. Therefore, Cao Yu brought the Black Tiger Guards and followed Cao Cao to Yingchuan.
The Xun family had moved to Jizhou to avoid the war. This time, only a few people returned to their former residence, and Xun Yu was one of them.
Arriving in front of the Xun Residence, Cao Cao tidied himself up, not even letting go of a small crease on his sleeve. He still felt that it was not enough!
"Quickly help me take a look. Is there anything rude?”
Xi Zhicai could not help but sigh at Cao Cao's thirst for talents. This was a true wise ruler. If Xun Yu did not come out of the mountain, he would break off all ties with him!
Cao Yu was speechless." Eldest Brother, appearance is not important. You have to use your inner self to convince the other party and make him willingly follow you!"”
Looking at the tall and handsome Liulang, Cao Cao really wanted to slap him. Wasn't it just his capital? You always show off in front of me. If I had such a good skin like you, would I still have to worry?
This is a world where looks matter. I feel inferior!
He sighed." It's my fortune to get it, but it's my fate to lose it. Let's go!"”
Cao Cao really did have an inferiority complex. In the original history, when foreign envoys came to visit him, he knew that the foreigners were all tall and mighty. He was worried that he would be looked down upon, so he let the tall and handsome Cui Yan replace him while he stood by the side to accompany them.
His many years of being in a position of power had nurtured his aura. Even if he was disguised as a servant, as long as he stood there, he would be the most beautiful boy in the crowd and would be recognized at a glance.
After knocking on the door, he handed over a visiting card and a servant boy went to report.
Just the name of the Prefecture Overseer was enough to make Xun Yu open his doors to welcome guests, let alone Cao Cao himself.
A handsome and refined young man led the way and walked out with a large group of people.
"This commoner Xun Yu greets the Prefecture Overseer!”
Cao Cao didn't dare to be arrogant and quickly helped him up.
"Mister, please stand up quickly. It's this Cao who came uninvited and disturbed your residence!”
"Lord Prefecture Overseer is too polite!"
With Xun Yu's intelligence, he naturally understood the meaning of Cao Cao's visit, not to mention that there was a talented actor beside him who was winking at him.
"Sir, please come in!"
The group of people came to the living room. After serving tea, Xun Yu waved his hand to dismiss the servants. However, there were still two people beside him.
One of them was in his early thirties and had a dignified appearance, while the other was in his twenties and had a carefree demeanor. Both of them had extraordinary auras and calm expressions. They did not reveal any fluctuations because of Cao Cao's arrival.
"Prefecture Overseer…"
Xun Yu was interrupted by Cao Cao.
"Mister, you don't need to be so formal. Just call me by my name. Besides, I'm not afraid of Mister laughing at me, but I'm still a self-proclaimed Prefecture Overseer.”
As soon as he said this, the three of them smiled, and their good impression of Cao Cao increased.
Xun Yu smiled.”
From the moment he entered the door until now, Xi Zhicai had not said a word. He believed that with his lord's charisma, he would definitely be able to convince the three people in front of him.
"Allow me to introduce two friends to Lord Cao!”
He pointed at a middle-aged man in his early thirties.”
Cao Cao cupped his fists and said,"Cao Cao and Gongda used to work together under the Great General. It's been a year since we last met. How have you been?"”
To be able to meet Xun You was a big surprise for Cao Cao. He could not let such a talent go.
Xun You returned the gesture."Thank you for your concern. I've traveled through most of the country at ease.”
At this moment, Xun Yu pointed at the young man and said,""This is my good friend, Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao.”
Daxian's good friend? They were definitely great sages. Since they had encountered them, they could not let any of them go.
Just as Cao Cao was about to greet him, Guo Jia waved his hand and said,"Humble scholar, down-and-out scholar, I can't accept the Prefecture Overseer's bow. Please ignore me.”
Cao Cao was stunned, Xun Yu and Xun You were helpless. The actor was furious and glared at Guo Jia. Unfortunately, Guo Jia ignored him.
Xun Yu hurriedly bowed and apologized." My good friend is a wanderer, but he is like this by nature. He did not mean to target Cao Gong. I hereby apologize!"”
Cao Cao wasn't someone ordinary people could compare to. He put away his awkwardness and said nonchalantly,"No matter, no matter. King Wen invited the Great Grandfather to come out of the mountain and he was willing to lower his status. Cao Cao wants to achieve great things. How dare he not be pious and righteous to wait for the great sage?”
They were moved by Cao Cao's sincerity.
Guo Jia bowed to the end.”
"Sir, please get up!"
Cao Cao's actions convinced everyone present. Xi Zhicai even glanced at the three people opposite him with a smug expression.
The three of them rolled their eyes.
After a round of probing, Cao Cao won completely, leaving a deep impression in their hearts.
Next, it was time to get to the main topic!
Cao Cao said seriously," Although I was lucky enough to obtain a state, the world is in chaos and the people are in dire straits. Although I am not talented, I have ambitions in all directions. However, my wisdom is lacking. You are all talented in governing the world. Why are you sitting at home? I would like to ask the three of you to come out of the mountains and help me bring peace to the world!”
This was a formal employment and a necessary process.
Xun Yu was about to speak but was stopped by Guo Jia.
He looked at Cao Yu and said,"This general is frowning. I'm afraid he has other ideas in his mind!" Jia was curious. If we don't agree, what will you do?”
The few of them looked at Cao Yu, and Cao Cao kept winking at him.
Liulang, your brother's success is right in front of you. You can't make trouble!
Cao Yu grinned." Simple. Pack it up and take it away. It's nothing more than three ropes."”
They didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Was this person a bandit? So domineering!
"Liu Lang, don't be rude!"”
Guo Jia laughed out loud." As expected of the world-renowned General of Divine Might. His way of thinking is indeed different."”
Then, he became interested again and continued to ask,"What happened after you kidnapped him? You must know that the few of us aren't people who yield so easily. Are you planning to support us?”
