"What did you say? Say it again!”
Zhuge Liang grabbed Xu Shu and asked excitedly.
Xu Shu's face was filled with tears as he recounted what Cao Shuo had done at the Shui Jing Academy in detail.
Zhuge Liang clenched his fists tightly. Veins could be seen on his face and his eyes were bloodshot.
In the blink of an eye, the engagement banquet turned into a funeral.
Brother-in-law Kuai Qi, good friend Cui Zhouping, teacher Sima Hui, all died.
Even his fiancée had been kidnapped.
The culprit behind all of this was Cao Shuo!
The unfilial son of Cao Cao who saw through his plan in Xinye.
"Cao Shuo, you cruel dog thief!"
"I, Zhuge Liang, swear that I will not rest until you die!”
Zhuge Liang finally exploded, and he let out a furious roar.
Xu Shu wiped away his tears and pulled Zhuge Liang.
"Kong Ming, let's hurry to Xiangyang and ask Liu Jingzhou to send troops to avenge our teacher and help you take back the daughter of the Huang family!”
"It's useless!"
Zhuge Liang shook his head." Liu Biao is a man of self-defense. He has been beaten by Cao Shuo and will not dare to send troops to fight him again."”
"But Cao Shuo killed Liu Qi, so he has a grudge against him for killing his son!”
Xu Shu did not believe that Liu Biao would be so cowardly.
Zhuge Liang snorted coldly," If Liu Biao is really brave, he wouldn't have had 100,000 armored soldiers, hiding in a corner of Jingzhou and not daring to go north to fight Cao Cao!”
Xu Shu was speechless.
"If Liu Biao doesn't want to send troops, how can Second Brother avenge Mister Shui Jing and take back Sister-in-law?”
Zhuge Jun was extremely anxious.
"If she falls into Cao Shuo's hands, her innocence will be lost. What's the point of saving her?”
Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed with bitterness.
Zhuge Jun was stunned. He sighed again." Even if we don't save the daughter of the Huang Family, if Liu Jingzhou didn't send troops, how could we avenge Mister Shui Jing?"”
Zhuge Liang raised his feather fan and closed his eyes.
He suddenly opened his eyes.
"Third brother, return to the thatched hut and pack your luggage. We'll set off immediately." Zhuge Liang said resolutely.”
"Set off? Where are we going?"
"Xu Prefecture!"
Zhuge Jun rolled his eyes and suddenly understood Zhuge Liang's intention.
His elder brother was going to Xu Prefecture to seek refuge with Liu Bei.
"Kong Ming, you finally escaped from Xu Prefecture to Jing Prefecture, why do you have to go back?”
Xu Shu was puzzled.
"Cao Shuo is a traitor who wants to usurp the Han Dynasty.”
"Liu Xuande is a member of the royal family of the Han Dynasty, and his goal is to help the Han Dynasty. The two of them are natural enemies.”
"Cao Shuo is cruel and tyrannical, while Liu Xuande loves the people with benevolence and righteousness. The two of them are good and evil to each other, and they swear to be irreconcilable.”
"I'm going back to Xu Prefecture to assist Liu Xuande in destroying Cao Shuo.”
"I want to help the Han Dynasty and take revenge!”
Zhuge Liang was impassioned as he explained his motives.
Xu Shu came to a sudden realization. After pondering for a moment, he said resolutely,"In that case, I'll go with you!”
…
On the official road west of Xinye City.
Cao Cao was riding his horse.
Guo Jia was accompanying him, and Cao Zhen's shadow guards were protecting him.
Along the way, Guo Jia described how Cao Shuo saw through Liu Qi's plan and defeated the Jingzhou army.
"Forcing us to abandon the new wilderness, secretly hiding kerosene and firewood, and then attacking at night. Yes, this is indeed a wonderful poison plan.”
Cao Cao nodded slightly, but he asked suspiciously,"
"Fengxiao, tell me honestly. Shuo 'er really saw through this plan.”
Guo Jia looked ashamed and said," I'm ashamed. I didn't see through this vicious trick. Fortunately, Second Young Master is meticulous and saved the day."”
The doubt on Cao Cao's face disappeared.
"First, there was Bowang Slope, then there was Xinye City. He easily saw through both schemes.”
"Looks like this child is indeed both wise and brave. As expected of my son…"
Cao Cao stroked his thin beard and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
At this moment.
Cao Zhen sensed that something was wrong and pointed behind him."Godfather, there seems to be our troops approaching from behind.”
Cao Cao and Guo Jia turned around and saw a group of people rushing over.
"Not good, Second Young Master is back!”
Guo Jia had sharp eyes and recognized Cao Shuo at a glance.
Cao Cao's expression changed slightly and he wanted to avoid the scene.
It was just that the surroundings were empty, and there was no village in front or shop behind, so there was no way to avoid it.
"There's no time to hide. Sikong, put on this mask first to cover yourself.”
Guo Jia was meticulous and prepared for any accidents. He took out the mask that he had prepared for Cao Cao.
Cao Cao didn't have time to think and hurriedly put it on, covering half of his face below the bridge of his nose.
"Jia greets Sikong!"
Guo Jia dismounted and bowed.
"I have to bow to my son. What is this…"
Cao Cao grumbled in his heart, but he could only unwillingly dismount and bow to welcome his son.
"So it's Fengxiao. What a coincidence."
Cao Shuo reined in the Fire Dragon Colt.
Guo Jia raised his head and saw a young and beautiful woman in Cao Shuo's arms. He couldn't help but be stunned.
"Sikong, this is…"
"Fengxiao, who is the masked man beside you?”
Cao Shuo asked before Guo Jiaxiang could ask.
Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat. He was afraid that Guo Jia had made a mistake in his response and let his son see through it.
"He is…"
Guo Jia's eyes darted around, and a set of lies instantly formed in his mind.
"He is Jia's uncle, Guo Ji, also known as De Gang.”
"Uncle's face was burned by a fire in his early years, leaving a scar. He was ashamed to show his true face, so he wore a mask all year round to cover it.”
"Uncle is here to seek refuge with Jia and seek a job to serve the Imperial Court and Sikong.”
Guo Jia's reaction was quick as well, instantly creating an impeccable identity for Cao Cao.
"So it's your uncle who's in charge of filial piety.”
"Then I'll give him the official position of a secretary and make him your subordinate. He'll follow you around the tent.”
Not only did Cao Shuo not suspect anything, he even gave Cao Cao an official position on the spot.
Guo Jia's forehead was covered in sweat as he turned around awkwardly and glanced at Cao Cao.
Cao Cao smiled bitterly in his heart.
He bowed to his son first, and then was conferred an official position by his son. As a father, he was really aggrieved.
Cao Shuo saw that Cao Cao didn't react and said unhappily,""What, Degang, do you think the position I gave you is too small?”
"Cough cough, uncle, hurry up and thank Si Kong!”
Guo Jia coughed a few times and reminded him with his eyes.
Cao Cao sighed.
In order to continue observing his son in secret, he could only swallow this loss.
"Thank you Sikong for your grace!"
Cao Cao reluctantly cupped his hands and thanked Cao Shuo.
"Don't think it's a small position. As long as you can prove your talent, I, Cao Shuo, will give you a high position and a generous salary.”
"Guo Degang, do your best!"
Cao Shuo patted Cao Cao's shoulder, his face full of encouragement.
Then, he laughed loudly and rode away with Huang Yueying in his arms.
