"Mister Zhong Da, why do you say that?"
Sima Yi's face looked a little gloomy under the light, but the corners of his lips curled up."
"Second Young Master, if something happens to Cao Gong, you have to be prepared to inherit the Cao family's foundation!”
Hearing this, Cao Pi's eyes gradually lit up. He immediately raised his hands.
"Thank you for your advice, Mister!"
Sima Yi nodded and did not say anything.
Cao Pi could not hide the smile on his face.
"Father, oh father, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too soft-hearted. Back then, I gave you a reason to get rid of Cao Biao, but you just let him escape.”
"But don't worry father, after I rule the Cao family, I will definitely help you take revenge. I will take Cao Biao's dog head and send it to your grave to drink!”
As he spoke, Cao Pi subconsciously looked at his legs and gritted his teeth.""And these legs of mine, I will make Cao Biao return them tenfold…"
Jingzhou, Longzhong.
"Kaka."
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man in white was holding a feather fan in his hand so tightly that it made faint sounds.
"What did you say? Cao Biao massacred more than half of Xuzhou's aristocrats?”
"Yes, Mr. Zhuge!"
Hearing this, the young Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed with an unprecedented ferocity.
He was originally from Langya County in Xu Province. When Cao Cao attacked Xu Province, he slaughtered Langya County in the name of avenging his father. This caused the local villagers to lose their homes and become refugees.
At that time, he was still young. Together with his younger brother, he followed his uncle to Yuzhang and then moved to Jingzhou. His elder brother Zhuge Jin stayed behind in Sangzi.
Cao Cao's massacre in Langya County had caused the Zhuge Clan to lose their homeland. Because of Cao Cao, the clan had never regained its former glory. To the young Zhuge Liang, this was not only a humiliation, but also a hatred that he had to take revenge on.
He did not expect that the old grudges had not been settled, but new grudges had arrived!
"Cao Biao!"
Zhuge Liang gritted his teeth and spat out,"
"You're treacherous and tyrannical, even more so than your father. If I don't get rid of you, you'll definitely bring disaster to the world in the future. Who knows how many people will die under your butcher knife!”
"Third brother, quickly go get a brush and ink!"
Zhuge Jun was stunned for a moment and asked,""Second brother, why do you need a brush and ink at this time?”
"I originally lived in seclusion in Longzhong and wanted to wait for a wise ruler, but Cao Biao suddenly appeared. I'm afraid I can't wait any longer.”
Zhuge Liang took the brush and ink, wrote a long letter, and handed it to Zhuge Jun.
"Help me send a letter to Liu Xuande, who is still in Yuan Shao's camp. Tell him that a mediocre ruler like Yuan Shao will definitely lose to Cao Biao. Tell him to come to Jingzhou quickly. I will help him pacify the world!”
……
Xiapi.
Guo Jia was busy for the whole day and finally returned to the dungeon.
When he returned, Cao Cao and Xu Chu were still lying in the straw. He did not know if they had fallen asleep or something else.
Guo Jia sighed helplessly. He glanced around and his eyes suddenly lit up.
The leftovers that he had left untouched in the morning had now disappeared without a trace, leaving only a wine bottle.
Guo Jia tiptoed over and shook the bottle.
As expected, not a single drop was left.
When he turned around, Cao Cao, Xu Chu, and the others had already sat up and were looking at him.
Guo Jia's face twitched, revealing a trace of embarrassment. He hurriedly said,""My lord…"
"Ahem."
Cao Cao cleared his throat, but he still said hoarsely,""Fengxiao, have you eaten?"
"Ah?"
It was an extremely ordinary question, but it made Guo Jia's expression stiffen, and cold sweat trickled down his back.
"Ah…eat, eat…"
"Ahem."
Cao Cao cleared his throat again, trying his best to make his voice sound normal.
"Oh, I ate it, then…"
Guo Jia's mouth twitched as he scratched his head.""Um, that, that…I thought, oh no, I forgot…"
As soon as he finished speaking, the dungeon fell into a strange silence.
Gulp!
Cao Cao's disappointing stomach broke the silence.
The others subconsciously looked at Cao Cao, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward. Cao Cao secretly dug his toes into the ground to keep his expression unchanged.
Cao Cao suppressed the protest in his stomach and his expression darkened. He changed the topic and said,
"Fengxiao, how was the test of Qu Yuanli today?”
"Good, good, very good!"
Speaking of Qu Yuanli, Guo Jia finally secretly heaved a sigh of relief. His eyes lit up."My lord, you don't know, but that Qu Yuan Li is simply a work of art that excels nature. Young Master Cao Biao is truly a genius, this is an epoch-making design!”
"It only needs a ding and an ox to increase the speed by more than five times. It saves a lot of manpower and livestock's strength, and it's very agile! It could also adapt to the different needs of deep or shallow ploughing!”
"It's really as young master Cao Biao said, no, it's even more powerful!”
The more Guo Jia spoke, the more excited he became. His eyes seemed to be filled with blood.
Cao Cao suddenly stood up, as if he had forgotten about his hunger. He said excitedly,"Really?"
Guo Jia nodded heavily.
Food was a problem for every feudal lord, and Cao Cao had always wanted to get rid of his dependence on the aristocratic families. That was why he had come up with the garrison system, using soldiers and landless farmers to reclaim wasteland. Although the effect was good, it was still not enough to get rid of his dependence on the aristocratic families.
If he really had this kind of farming ability, then he would no longer be afraid of those aristocratic families!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao's mood suddenly improved. He asked,""Fengxiao, have you copied the blueprint?”
Guo Jia took out a piece of linen and handed it to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao shook his sleeves and solemnly took the linen cloth. After looking at it for a while, he carefully put it away.
Guo Jia thought for a moment and said,"My lord, young master Cao Biao is really a rare genius. Why don't you lower your head and give in to him and have a calm chat with him? Perhaps the conflict will be resolved and he will return to Xuchang with us tomorrow.”
Cao Cao was silent for a while before he slowly said,"
"Fengxiao, why do you always think that I'm the one who lowered my head and admitted my mistake first? That unfilial son was suspected of poisoning Cao Chong and deposing Cao Pi. Shouldn't he be punished? Did I do something wrong?"
"My lord is right." Guo Jia shook his head.”
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes.!”
"I…"
Guo Jia was stunned. He quickly shook his head and said,"No, I never thought so.”
"Humph!"
Cao Cao gave a heavy humph and retreated back into the straw pile. He turned his body sideways, and for some reason, he felt a sense of grievance that he had not felt for a long time.
It was worse than losing a battle, and he couldn't vent it out. He could only tightly purse his trembling lips.
Guo Jia opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Cao Ren and Xu Chu looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly…
Suddenly.
Xu Chu shifted his body and quietly approached Guo Jia. He lowered his voice and said,
"Sir, remember to bring wine tomorrow.”
Cao Ren gulped when he heard that.
Cao Cao turned his head to the side and secretly watched. His face twitched.
After a while.
He finally turned his face to the cold wall and closed his eyes. However, the muscles on his face still twitched from time to time.
The dignified Tiger Marquis was actually reduced to asking for wine from that unfilial son?
Cao Cao's stomach growled again when he thought of the word 'wine'.
This made him clench his fists so tightly that they made cracking sounds…
In the dark dungeon, a lone lamp was swaying, reflecting the shrinking figures of the few of them, making them look even more desolate...
