The young man stared into the distance, his eyes flashing with a light that should not have appeared at his age.
This young man was the Little Demon King that Xiahou Yuan gnashed his teeth at. He was also the uncle that Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun had mentioned.
His real name was Xiahou Yu, the thirteenth grandson of Xiahou Ying, the founding father of the Western Han Dynasty. His status was very noble.
However, he was a posthumous child. His biological father died before he was born, and his mother died in less than a year.
However, even though his parents died, they left Xiahou Yu a considerable estate.
How much property would he leave behind?
Even if Xiahou Yu didn't learn well and stayed in brothels every day, gargling his mouth with bird's nest and eating delicacies, he would still be old and young when he lived to 80.
What everyone did not know was that Xiahou Yu still had an unknown secret, and that was that he came from the future more than a thousand years ago.
As a transmigrator, Xiahou Yu naturally understood the principle that an innocent man would be punished if he held a treasure.
If he was in Glory World, he might still be able to live a stable life as a rich man and laze around.
However, this era coincided with the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. This was an era of cannibalism. He could not keep the so-called billions of assets.
Not to mention others, even his nephew Cao Cao (Cao Cao's father's surname was Xiahou) might be swallowed by him.
Therefore, one must have a backer in troubled times.
No one dared to say that Cao Mengde was the strongest among the Three Kingdoms.
Thus, Xiahou Yu chose Cao Cao as his backer and prepared to cling onto him.
However, he couldn't just stick it on rashly. That would be too embarrassing.
After careful consideration, he began to prepare his plan a year ago.
He used his foresight to set a trap, a trap that could definitely scare Cao Cao.
Indeed, one year later, Cao Cao personally came to visit.
Xiahou Yu gazed at the blue sky in the distance and thought,"
"It's not business to rush up. Cao Aman, if I follow you out of the mountain easily, I'm sure you won't value me!”
Thinking of this, his eyes turned and he said to the person beside him,"Steward Liu, when my nephew Cao Cao comes to visit, tell him that I'm going out to visit a friend and will be back in three days!”
"Hmm?"
Hearing Xiahou Yu's words, Butler Liu was stunned.
"Young Master, how did you know that Cao Cao would be visiting?”
Xiahou Yu smiled and said,""Don't just stand there. Go to the gatehouse and wait. Otherwise, if people spill the beans, there will be gaps in the future!”
"Yes, Young Master!"
Butler Liu quickly agreed and walked out doubtfully.
Xiahou Yu looked at Butler Liu's departing back and muttered to himself,""Village Zhuge, I'm sorry. The thatched cottage belongs to me now!”
However, when he looked up and saw the incomparably luxurious mansion, he spat and said,"Damn it, that place looks like a thatched cottage. It's clearly a mansion. Why does the Sangu Mansion look like a nouveau riche!”
……
Outside the door, Butler Liu looked into the distance suspiciously. He could not believe what his little master had just said.
At this moment, a group of soldiers galloped over, led by Cao Cao and the Xiahou brothers.
Just last year, Cao Cao had brought the Xiahou brothers back to their hometown to pay respects to their ancestors. Housekeeper Liu recognized the three of them.
Far away from the gate, Cao Cao took the lead and dismounted to show his respect. The others did not dare to be negligent and jumped off their horses.
Butler Liu couldn't care less about the surprise in his heart and quickly went up to her.
Cao Cao had a good memory and remembered Housekeeper Liu. He beat him to it and said,"Housekeeper Liu, please bring me to report to my uncle that Cao Cao is here!“
"Lord Cao, it's unfortunate that my young master is out visiting a friend. He's not at home at the moment." Butler Liu bowed.”
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment before he asked,"When will uncle return?"”
"According to my usual habits, I'll be back in three days."”
Cao Cao nodded and said,"Alright, I will come back to visit you in three days."”
With that, he turned and left with the Xiahou brothers.
……
Three days later, Cao Cao came again.
Butler Liu looked apologetic and said," Lord Cao, I'm really sorry. My young master sent a message yesterday. He's currently admiring the snow on East Mountain. He'll only be home in a few days!"”
Cao Cao nodded slightly and said,"Sorry to trouble you, Steward Liu. I will come to visit you in three days!"”
After saying that, he jumped onto his horse and turned to leave.
Xiahou Yuan was furious that he had been rejected twice in a row.
He muttered softly,"What ability does the little devil have to actually make the lord run away empty-handed twice!" It's really infuriating!"
Cao Cao turned around and glared at Xiahou Yuan when he realized that Xiahou Yuan had called Xiahou Yu the Little Demon King. Xiahou Yuan trembled in fear.
Xiahou Dun was also a little angry and said to Cao Cao,"
"My lord, although there are rumors that my uncle is intelligent, he is not even ten years old yet. How can he be compared to Jiang Shang and Zhang Liang?
Moreover, the battle against Dong is imminent. Should we come back another time?”
Hearing Xiahou Dun's words, Cao Cao reined in his horse and said seriously,"
"Yuan Rang (Xiahou Dun), the wisdom of my uncle is not something you can imagine.
If he could obtain his assistance, there would be no need to worry about success or the world not being peaceful.
There's no need to say anything more. This time, we must invite uncle to come out of the mountain!”
