"Oh, forget it if you haven't heard of it…"
Cao Cao waved his hand, as if he was getting drunk. The main reason was that he had been forced to drink a few bowls of wine by Guo Yu.
She would never drink with him again.
Guo Jia, Guo Yu, Xun Yu, and the nearby guards followed Cao Cao to the government office.
Vaguely, Guo Yu seemed to see a tall and mighty person hiding in the dark and secretly watching.
Although it was just a glance, he could feel the pressure.
It must be Dian Wei.
He was about 1.9 meters tall, had round arms, and was very big. As expected of someone who could wear two sets of armor to fight.
On the surface, Cao Cao went there with one or two people.
In fact, there were hundreds of them in the dark…
So this is what a big shot looks like? I'm so envious.
Hmm? Hmph hmph…now you know the joy of being a master!
You can't imagine the joy of being a lord, Fengyi.
But forget it. The vanity of the mortal world is just floating clouds. White clouds and gray dogs are like Buddha's life. I'm an immortal king who has descended into the world. I'll soon be able to live a carefree life. At that time, the emperor is just an ant.
Cao Cao was speechless.
This child was smart and talented.
This was a paranoia. Why was he like those emperors who pursued immortality…crazy?
Was this a genius?
……
At night, Guo Jia and Guo Yu went back to sleep.
Cao Cao left Xun Yu behind.
The two of them drank some tea and chatted for a while before Cao Cao changed the topic to Cheng Yu.
"Zhong De was originally the acting prefect. Although his salary was high, his reputation was not great. Back then, he guarded Yanzhou with you, almost protecting the last territory for me. Otherwise, I, Cao Cao, would have become a stray dog…"
As he said this, a look of disappointment appeared on Cao Cao's face.
Life was like this. If it wasn't for Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, he would have been a skeleton in a coffin.
"Yeah…"
Speaking of this, Xun Yu could not help but be shocked. That time, he was really scared out of his wits.
Even though they were defending to the death, they still lost most of their cities. More than half of Yanzhou fell into Lu Bu's hands.
Chen Gong and Zhang Miao were both trusted aides of Cao Cao. He had even given his wife and children to Zhang Miao.
Such a friendship was backstabbed.
"Yes, he went to visit Feng Xiao today, which can be considered as reminding me…I want to ask for the position of Minister for him to accompany me often.”
"What do you think?"
Xun Yu's eyes lit up and he immediately bowed deeply.
"Lord, it is our blessing to have both kindness and power.”
But in reality, he was rather surprised. Cheng Yu was considered lucky.
Although the prefect was only a 2000-dan official, he was the prefect sent out. Currently, most of the talents in Yanzhou were with the lord.
If he really reached 2000 dan, he might stop here and not be able to achieve much.
Of course, for most Confucian scholars, it was already considered glorious for them to be able to achieve this level after entering the official career. However, Cheng Yu was obviously not just that.
He still had to be conferred the title of Marquis.
But because he paid a visit to Guo Fengxiao, he got such good luck. This was really…
Xun Yu even began to wonder what Feng Xiao and his lord were doing in the military tent when they first met.
" Mm…" Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction.
……
That night, Xun Yu did not return to the mansion at all. Instead, he went to Cheng Yu's residence.
After the servant reported, they entered the inner courtyard. Cheng Yu was already waiting for them with tea.
"Lord Xun, why have you come so late at night?”
" Tear down this building." Xun Yu was expressionless, but he still cupped his hands politely.
"Why?"
Cheng Yu's heart skipped a beat. Did I offend you?
"Today, did you go to visit Guo Fengxiao and not see him? You left after knowing that the lord was here.”
"Not bad!"
Cheng Yu's body trembled, and he instantly felt wronged.
"This one is just following etiquette and meeting this Yingchuan celebrity, why not!”
"Lord Xun, am I not allowed to see Guo Fengxiao?! My lord still blames me for visiting him privately? Or did I not respect etiquette and did not go in to salute?!”
The more Cheng Yu spoke, the more agitated he became. He even felt a little uncomfortable.
"Sir, you and I defended Yanzhou to the death, defended Juancheng for the lord, and supported Xiahou Yuanrang. That's why we have Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou today. Although they're not complete, they're no longer the same as before.”
"But now, Guo Fengxiao has come, and we meritorious officials have been abandoned like worn-out shoes! He didn't even have the right to meet her?!”
"If that's the case, my lord, I naturally don't dare to abandon him. I'm just angry in my heart! Tonight, I will spit it out. Tomorrow, I will return to Chen Liu and only care about the lord's orders. If you let me return to the mountains, I, Cheng Yu, will have no regrets!”
"But if the lord continues to favor the two brothers for no reason! He lost his virtue! It's nothing to chill the hearts of others, to chill the hearts of me, Cheng Yu! What I'm afraid of is chilling the hearts of the scholars in the world…"
When Cheng Yu said this, he let out a long sigh.
" My lord has sent me to inform you that you have made great contributions today when you went to give gifts," Xun Yu said doubtfully." He wants to ask His Majesty to appoint you as a minister. When Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou are pacified, you will be conferred the title of marquis…"
"Since you want to return to Chen Liu-"
"I'm just joking."
"I was wrong."
Cheng Yu suddenly grabbed Xun Yu's hand. Although his old face was very red, his expression was still unusually serious.
"Don't be like this, Wen Ruo, I was just talking in my sleep.”
