"After the diplomatic mission entered the city, did they have any contact with anyone?”

After Cao Cao was done with his administrative work, he finally found time to care about this matter.

There were two emperors in Xu County, and Liu Xie was the emperor.

Back then, Yuan Shao hesitated because he was worried that such a thing would happen.

To welcome the emperor, who will the ministers listen to?

Should he listen to the emperor or Yuan Shao?

Listening to Yuan Shao was 'disloyal' to the Emperor. If he listened to the emperor, would Yuan Shao have invited back an ancestor?

If one's heart was not black enough, one would welcome the trouble of the emperor!

Right now, Cao Cao still had a certain degree of " tolerance " towards the Imperial Court. When he raised his butcher knife, it would truly be a turmoil.

"The diplomatic mission has never come into contact with other officials of the imperial court. They will only send people to Sikong Manor and Xun Lingjun Manor.”Cheng Yu replied.

"Xiang Linyuan, right? What an interesting person." Cao Cao praised, a hint of worry hidden between his brows.

The imperial physician said that Xi Zhicai might not be able to hold on any longer and could leave at any time.

This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Cao Cao, whose career was flourishing day by day.

"Where's Dong Cheng?"

"Dong Cheng has been very quiet recently. He hasn't taken any action.”Cheng Yu said in a low voice.

"Send someone to spread the news that Sun Ce's envoy from River East has arrived. Let's see if this old fellow can keep his cool.”

Cao Cao's eyes were deep as a murderous aura gushed out.

One day, he would flatten the court.

"I'm afraid Dong Cheng has already received the news, but he's just keeping a low profile.”Cheng Yu speculated.

A diplomatic mission of two hundred people entering the city was not small.

How could Dong Cheng not notice?

"Hmm?"

Cao Cao's eyes were cold and murderous.

"He is waiting, waiting for the diplomatic mission to contact him. However, he did not expect that the Jiangdong diplomatic mission would rather stroll around the city than take any action.”Cheng Yu reported.

"Xiang Linyuan is wandering around again?" Cao Cao was shocked.

"That's right. He walked around the market in the city and asked about the price of grain and cloth.”Cheng Yu explained.

Food again!

Cao Cao felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

"This person cannot be underestimated."

Cao Cao's heart tightened as he revealed a fearful expression.

What would an ordinary messenger do?

Of course, he would seek the help of the civil and military officials.

As long as they introduced him, he would still be able to meet the Emperor.

Cao Cao had just welcomed the Emperor, so he couldn't stop him from doing anything. The shackles would only tighten.

Xiangyu put on an indifferent expression as if he did not care about his "master's orders".

Instead, it aroused Cao Cao's suspicion.

"Keep a close watch on the Jiangdong diplomatic mission. Report any situation.”

"Yes, sir." Cheng Yu said respectfully.

Time flew by, and another day passed.

Qin Song went to Sikong Fu as usual to deliver a visiting card and was told that Sikong Cao Cao had gone to visit the opera talent.

Then, he turned to Xun Yu, but Xun Yu refused.

As a minister, Xun Yu could not meet the envoy privately.

He used this as an excuse to reject Qin Song.

Qin Song returned dejectedly and muttered,""Joining the army is not easy.”

"What's the rush?"

"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move. Continue to wait for the turn of events."

Xiang Yu's mind was calm as a rock.

Soon, the mysterious person sent another letter.

"Your Majesty, you're going east to inspect the capital. You've pulled out a dangerous place and your life is new.”

Such an expression was much clearer.

Xiang Yu was certain that the person behind this was Dong Cheng!

The diplomatic mission had repeatedly run into obstacles in Cao Cao's hands, and most people would complain.

Wasn't Zhang Song like this in history?

Now, Dong Cheng felt that the opportunity to win over the Jiangdong diplomatic mission had come, so he expressed it even more boldly.

Continue probing!

Xiang Yu continued to burn the letter without leaving any flaws.

It was as if this had never happened.

Such an indifferent response completely stunned Dong Cheng.

He couldn't probe the Jiangdong diplomatic mission's thoughts at all. Were they loyal to the Han Dynasty?

The current situation in Xudu was treacherous.

No one could believe it.

Dong Cheng didn't dare to bet everything on this.

However, he did not have time to delay any longer. He invited Xiang Yu to attend in the name of holding a birthday banquet.

If he didn't go, he wouldn't be giving face to his uncle's invitation!

When Qin Song received the invitation, he was completely stunned.

"Dong Cheng holds a high position. Why would he invite us to his birthday banquet?”

Suddenly.

He thought of a possibility.

There is no good feast.

If Xiang Yu did not go, he would definitely offend the courtiers.

Could Sun Ce's request for a title be successful?

Xiang Yu did not expect Dong Cheng to be so bold. He asked,"Did Dong Cheng invite people from Cao Cao's camp?”

"This subordinate will immediately go and investigate."

Very soon, Qin Song sent back news that Dong Cheng had only invited a few officials.

Zhong Ji, Wu Shuo, etc.

Xiang Yu did not know any of them!

A huge net had already enveloped them.

Xiang Yu weighed his options and decided to go deep into the tiger's den.

"Only by doing so can I attract Cao Cao's attention and successfully meet him.”
