Xuchang, Cao Cao's mansion.
Today, he returned to the inner courtyard early and slept soundly on the bed.
There had been a lot of things happening in the court recently, and the officials were quite disgusted by some of Cao Cao's actions.
As expected, they still needed a great victory to calm their minds.
To avoid disturbing the court.
"Father."
At this moment, Cao Ang walked in from the courtyard. He had just finished patrolling the camp today, and he looked rather dusty.
"Ang 'er is back!"
"Haha…did anything unusual happen today?”
" Nothing unusual. As usual, the morale of the soldiers is high, but..."
Cao Ang hesitated.
"But what? Just say it."
Cao Cao put down the book and looked up at him.
This child had never been bashful. It seemed that something had happened today.
" Mm." Cao Ang was fair, handsome, and modest. He was very similar to Cao Cao, so he had a good reputation in the military camp.
In the future, everyone said that they might pass on this great undertaking to him.
"I heard that Father put Chancellor Guo's younger brother in an important position as a farmer. Many soldiers found it unbelievable. Some people even asked if you had any relationship with Chancellor Guo.”
Cao Cao was stunned.
The book in his hand almost fell to the ground.
Where did this come from?
Am I that kind of person?
"Haha…they don't understand. Guo Yu isn't simple.”
Cao Ang leaned back.
From the various evaluations I've heard, this person should be quite simple. If he really is a hermit, then he has hidden himself too deeply.
"However, Mister Cheng Yu and Mister Xun You are also dissatisfied with this. Lord Zhong Yao has kept a low profile and has not said much…Now that Father's decree is still widely circulated, I'm afraid many people will not dare to come again because of this.”
"How could that be?"
Cao Cao smiled calmly.
"You really don't understand. Forget it, it's useless to explain it to you. Just wait and see. This Guo Yu should be able to solve the spring plowing problem.”
"Here."
Cao Ang bowed deeply and slowly left the room.
Then, he did not return to his side courtyard. Instead, he left the government office and walked to the main street of the inner city. After a while, a few scholars walked over.
With Cheng Yu as the leader.
"Eldest Young Master, how is it?"
Cheng Yu's beard was half white, and his face looked very honest and rather thin. He jogged over and asked anxiously.
Indeed, he, Zhong Yao, and Xun You were puzzled by this question.
Why did the lord treat Guo Yu so well?
Was it because he looked handsome?
If that was the case, Xun You couldn't understand. My Uncle Xun Yu was also very handsome.
" There's no other way." Cao Ang shook his head." Gentlemen, my father is quite magnanimous about this. This is his kindness to all the Confucian scholars in the world. If there are talents, he will patiently cultivate them. His kindness is as great as a mountain. As for the matter of persuading my father not to favor Guo Fengyi so much, don't mention it again in the future.”
"Moreover, father said himself that Guo Yu is a great talent. It's just that you can't see it.”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
A few middle-aged men scratched their ears and cheeks.
"Tsk, what nonsense! What talent did he have? Was he deliberately mystifying things?”
Cheng Yu stroked his beard, his head buzzing.
"My lord wants this person to help Lord Xun stabilize the rear and then attack Wan City in the south. This way, he will have the energy to deal with Yuan Shu and Lu Bu.”
"But it can't be…Could it be that Guo Yu really has real talent and is more outstanding than Guo Fengxiao?”
"Impossible!" Xun You immediately waved his hand." I've visited him and made friends with him. He doesn't have much talent except for his tea making skills, let alone writing ancient articles or world-shaking strategies.”
"Of course, it can't be so absolute. What if he managed to deceive me?”
Tsk…
Cheng Yu and Zhong Yao rolled their eyes at him.
What nonsense.
Zhong Yao coughed lightly. He was the oldest of the three, so he stood up straight and said,""I really don't know why I came here with you. I might as well go back and practice my calligraphy.”
With that, he left.
Seeing this, Xun You didn't have much meaning. He cupped his hands together with Cheng Yu and planned to return to the residence.
Even Cheng Yu still had Cao Cao's praise for Guo Yu in his heart.
He felt uncomfortable if he didn't get to the bottom of it. Besides, Guo Jia hadn't visited him since he came to Xuchang.
He might as well take this opportunity to take a look…
……
As he left, Cao Cao summoned Xun Yu from the government office.
The two of them sat opposite each other.
"My lord, why did you call me here?"
"Wen Ruo, what do you think of Liu Bei?”
Xun Yu took a deep breath, his eyes dark as he pondered.
"Are you saying that Xu Prefecture is now given to him, but he is unwilling to sincerely submit to us?”
Cao Cao nodded.
Che Zhou was in charge of the various tribes of Xu Prefecture, but Liu Bei had occupied Xiaopei and other places. In reality, there were two forces in Xu Prefecture.
The people Cao Cao sent were on the same side as Cao Bao's Scarlet Yang Sect.
Liu Bei's Shu Ren faction was one of them.
As for Chen Gui and Chen Deng, the father and son pair, they were still rather ambiguous.
The situation in Xuzhou was not good. Outside, Lu Bu was watching covetously. After Yuan Shu became the emperor, although he was attacked by the world, in fact, it was impossible to completely swallow him within a year or two.
All of these things added up were things that he had to be wary of this year.
Xun Yu thought for a moment and said," Liu Bei cannot stay for long. His ambition had already begun to show when he attacked Dong. But now, we really cannot touch him. The land of Xu Prefecture…"
"Sigh…"
At this point, Xun Yu hesitated.
It seemed that some words could not be said clearly.
Cao Cao understood, so he remained silent.
This was the trouble.
"Eh? But…"
Cao Cao suddenly thought of Guo Yu.
I wonder if that kid has any other ideas?
"Wenruo, come with me to Fengxiao Mansion.”
Xun Yu was stunned for a moment and asked with a frown,""Why didn't you summon him?"
Why did you call me here? You didn't come to find me personally!
Damn it! When can I stand up?
"Aiya, stand up, let's go…We don't have to stick to these things.”
My lord!
Let's just stick to it for a while!
Xun Yu roared in his heart, but he still had a calm smile on his face.
