They left the Imperial Secretary's residence.
Xu Shou turned around and entered the Rong Manor.
"General Xu!"
Xi Zhicai nodded slightly.
Although Xu Shou was only a pawn, he was a Tiger Guard and Xiao Bei's personal guard.
At this moment, the person who had rushed back from the Yingchuan battlefield represented Xiao Bei, the head of the Rong Manor.
"Sir!"
Xu Shou bowed slightly and said in a deep voice," After Yingyang was broken, we were ordered by Marshal Xiao to return to Xuchang. Firstly, we were to gather officials to go to Yingyang. Secondly, we were to order Mr. Zhicai to lead Xuchang's logistics army to Dingling to transport grain for Runan's battlefield. At the same time, we were to guard against Wancheng's Zhang Xiu's attack!”
"Dingling Mausoleum?"
Xi Zhicai frowned and said,"It seems that Dingling has the Yellow Turban Marshal He Man guarding it!"”
Xu Shou shook his head and said helplessly," This is absolutely what Marshal Xiao said. Perhaps the Yellow Turban Army of Dingling has been wiped out by now!"”
"Yes!"
Xi Zhicai nodded." I understand. I'll lead the troops to Dingling tomorrow!"”
"Here!"
Xu Shou bowed and left the hall.
A great victory in Yingchuan.
The news spread throughout Xuchang in a short time.
That night, countless people couldn't sleep, staring at the dark circles under their eyes as they went to court.
At the court meeting.
Xun Yu reported to the emperor and recommended Cao Ang as the magistrate of Yingyang.
This news shocked Fu Wan, Dong Cheng, and the others.
The matter of Xi Zhicai requesting the army to guard Dingling made the atmosphere in the court even more strange.
The meeting ended.
The court officials left Sima Gate.
Xun Yu frowned." Zhicai, Xinzhi said that he would only use the first battalion before the expedition. Why did he send you to Dingling? Could it be that the two armies are in a stalemate, so he wants you to lead the logistics army as a surprise attack?"”
Xi Zhicai shook his head and frowned."I have a feeling that Xin Zhi is plotting something big. It might be related to the changes in the court!”
"Hey!"
Xun Yu sighed." Yingyang has just won, so I transferred you out of Xuchang. Zixiao and the others can't help, so I'm the only one left in the court. I'm afraid the officials in the court will make a move again!"”
"Hmm?"
Xi Zhicai's pupils constricted.
Xun Yu also woke up abruptly and said with a chill,""Gongqing?"
"Not bad!"
Xi Zhicai felt a chill run down his spine." Wen Ruo, before Xinzhi and the lord return to the army, it's best that you don't come into contact with the second young master and the other officials. No wonder you want to ask for a title for the eldest young master. It seems that Xinzhi is going to make a move on some people!"”
"What a monster!"
Xun Yu smiled bitterly.
Not long after.
Outside Xuchang City, in a courtyard.
Cao Pi, Yang Xiu, Wang Zifu, and the others gathered together.
"Second Young Master!"
"Xiao Bei won a great victory in Yingchuan. Eldest Young Master has already been promoted to Yingyang Order!”
"However, he dispatched Xi Zhicai to Dingling Mausoleum. I'm afraid the war has reached a stalemate!”
"Even if we can defeat the Yellow Turbans, it's only by borrowing the power of the opera talent. We don't have such great achievements!”
"If we can destroy his grain seeds this time, the lord will definitely not trust him anymore and will also ignore the eldest young master. However, if we let them grow and let the eldest young master hone himself outside for two years, no one will be able to compete for the position of heir when he returns!”Yang Xiu suggested.
"Think again!"
Cao Pi's eyes were filled with worry.
He was still a child, not the vicious Emperor of the Wei Dynasty from his previous life.
To destroy the grain seeds that could produce an astonishing amount of grain per mu was a huge disadvantage to Cao Cao, the entire imperial court, and Yanzhou!
"Young Master!"
Wang Zifu gritted his teeth and said," We will handle this matter ourselves. If we need the Young Master's Token, please borrow it once. Even if something happens, we will bear the responsibility!"”
"Not bad!"
Changshui Lieutenant Zhong Ji said with a dark gaze.
Cao Pi nodded." This has nothing to do with me. If I become the heir in the future, we will be allies!"”
"Good!"
Yang Xiu and the others echoed.
"Let's go!"
"Mother has been keeping a close eye on him these past few days. I can't stay any longer!" Cao Pi sighed.”
"Farewell, Young Master!"
Everyone bowed and watched Cao Pi leave.
"Dezu!"
Prince Fu took a deep breath and said excitedly,""The great matter is done. As long as we sow discord between Cao Mengde and Xiao Xinzhi and mess up his Congrong Mansion, we can lure the Xu Prefecture Overseer to help the king. It is said that the Xu Prefecture Overseer is the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan and is extremely benevolent!”
"Yes!"
Yang Xiu nodded.
He didn't want to compete with Cao Cao's subordinates.
However, in front of the Xingyi General's residence, Xiao Bei had slashed off two of Yang Biao's fingers with his sword, causing Cao Cao to strip him of his position.
As his son, how could he not take revenge for humiliating his father?
"What should we do?"
Zhong Ji asked expectantly.
Yang Xiu rubbed his chin and said with a cold smile,""The Xiao Manor is in the inner city and doesn't have a large water source to water the crops. Every five days, they hire commoners to pull a cart of water from the Ying River. We mix poison wine into the water.”
"This!"
Wang Zifu's eyes were filled with worry.
Yang Xiu waved his hand and said with a faint smile," They hired the same batch of people. We bribed them with the name of Second Young Master. Under coercion and temptation, they will naturally obey our arrangements. However, we can't add too much poison at once. It's easy for something to happen!"”
"Good!"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Zhong Ji laughed." What Chen Liu and Xiao Bei? I think Dezu's nephew is more talented than him. After this retreat, if Cao Mengde doesn't support him, I'd like to see how long he can last!"”
"Haha!"
Wu Zilan, Wang Zifu, and the others laughed.
Only Yang Xiu had a kind of uneasiness in his heart. Their plan was too smooth. It was as if someone was pushing them to act!
