"Who is Zhen Yi?"
Cao Shuo looked at Guo Jia.
"The Zhen Clan of Ji Prefecture is the head of the three tycoons in the world.”
"This Zhen Yi is the head of the Zhen family.”
"Yuan Shao is able to sit firmly in Jizhou because Zhen Yi's backing is indispensable.”
"According to what Jia knows, the Zhen family is in charge of the supply of rations for Yuan's army.”
"This Zhen Yi should be transporting rations to Li Yang and was coincidentally caught by us.”
Guo Jia explained Zhen Yi's background.
"The world's tycoons, huh…"
Cao Shuo waved his hand,"Call him in."”
A moment later, a middle-aged man entered the tent and bowed respectfully.
"Zhen Yi, what do you want to say?”
Cao Shuo asked coldly.
Zhen Yi cupped his hands and said," I have some money in my family. I want to make a deal with Sikong Cao. What do you think?"”
"You want to make a deal with me? Interesting.”
"Tell me, what kind of deal do you want to make with me?"”
"I want to exchange 100 million for the freedom of me and the Second Young Master of the Yuan Family." Zhen Yi smiled.”
As expected, Zhen Yi wanted to use the money to redeem Yuan Xi for Yuan Shao.
"You sure are generous."
"I really want to know, why did you spend so much money to redeem Yuan Xi?”
Cao Shuo asked calmly.
"Ahem, it's like this."
"I have a daughter named Zhen Mi. She was engaged to Second Young Master and was supposed to be married next month.”
"Who knew that Second Young Master unintentionally offended Sikong Cao and was captured by Sikong.”
"I had no choice. For the sake of my daughter's marriage, I dared to ask Sikong Cao to redeem Second Young Master.”
Zhen Yi revealed the reason with a bitter expression.
Cao Shuo sneered.
Everything about his daughter's marriage was just a high-sounding excuse.
Zhen Yi wanted to marry his daughter to Yuan Xi because he wanted to climb up the social ladder and get close to the Yuan family.
Now that Yuan Xi had fallen into his hands, Zhen Yi's wishful thinking was in danger of being destroyed. Of course, he was burning with anxiety and wanted to exchange a huge sum of money for Yuan Xi.
At this moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.
"Ding! Host, please use the skill of recruiting beauties on Zhen Mi to obtain tyrant points.”
Cao Shuo's eyes flashed.
Zhen Mi, the legendary Goddess Luo, a beauty whose name had shaken the world.
"Yuan Shao, I will be a good person to the end. Since I killed your son, how can I not accept your daughter-in-law?”
Cao Shuo sneered and said,""In that case, take Yuan Xi away.”
Zhen Yi was secretly delighted and quickly cupped his hands."Thank you for your kindness, Sikong Cao. May I know where Second Young Master is?”
"Isn't he right beside you?"
Cao Shuo pointed at the bloody corpse on the ground.
Only then did Zhen Yi notice that there was a corpse lying on the ground.
He turned his head shakily and took a closer look at the face. His expression suddenly changed in horror.
Yuan Xi!
The corpse on the ground was Yuan Xi!
Zhen Yi screamed in fear and staggered three steps back before falling to the ground.
"Sikong Cao, this-"
Zhen Yi pointed at Yuan Xi's corpse, his face filled with horror.
"Isn't he Yuan Xi?"
Cao Shuo sneered mockingly.
"This Cao Shuo is so cruel that he killed Second Young Master?”
"Isn't he afraid that Deacon Yuan will use an all-out army to take revenge in his rage?”
Zhen Yi raised his head, trembling, and looked at Cao Shuo in horror.
Cao Shuo said coldly,"I've given you the person, but I don't want money. I want someone from you."”
"Alone?"
"I wonder who Sikong Cao wants?" Zhen Yi asked with a trembling voice.”
"It's your daughter, Zhen Mi!"
Cao Shuo smiled coldly.
When Cao Cao heard this, he shook his head and sighed.
"So this child is thinking about the Zhen family's daughter. He is indeed my son.”
"Could it be that like father, like son…"
Cao Cao muttered to himself with a complicated expression on his face.
Zhen Yi was stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.
How could there be such a domineering person in this world?
It was fine if he killed his son-in-law.
He actually wanted him to exchange his daughter for his son-in-law's corpse!
This was too much, too much!
Zhen Yi secretly gritted his teeth, but he did not dare to flare up. He could only say with a bitter face,
"My daughter is in Ye City. Now that Sikong Cao has killed Second Young Master Yuan, how can Deacon Yuan let this commoner send my daughter to Sikong Cao?”
"I really can't do anything about Sikong Cao's condition.”
Cao Shuo's eyes were filled with disdain." Just prepare your daughter," he said arrogantly." I'll flatten Ye City and personally retrieve her!"”
Zhen Yi gasped.
Good fellow, it wasn't enough to sneak attack Li Yang and kill Yuan Xi, he actually wanted to take Ye City.
Arrogant!
Zhen Yi was shocked.
"That…that commoner is in Ye City, waiting for Sikong Cao!”
Zhen Mi didn't dare to stay any longer. She hurriedly took Yuan Xi's body and fled.
"Yuan Shao still has 10,000 soldiers stationed in Ye City. I heard that his son Yuan Shang is quite talented and has Shen Pei, Ju Yi, and others to assist him.”
"Sikong Cao, forgive me for being blunt, but it might not be as easy as Li Yang to flatten Ye City.”
Cao Cao couldn't help but remind.
"Why bother so much? Let's kill our way to Ye City first!”
Cao Shuo waved his hand." Pass down my order. The soldiers of the three armies will have their fill of wine and meat tonight. Tomorrow, we will immediately head north and follow me straight to Yuan Shao's lair!"”
After the reward, the cheers of Cao Cao's soldiers could be heard outside the city gate tower.
"This child is as arrogant and conceited as ever.”
"Father wants to see what ability you have to quickly break Ye City before Yuan Shao returns!”
Cao Cao stroked his thin beard and looked at his son expectantly.
After a night of revelry, the Wei army from the south bank crossed the river to meet up.
The next morning, the 40,000 Cao troops rolled north and headed straight for Ye City.
P.S.: I'm begging for a flower evaluation vote. I'll only have the motivation to write crazily if I have some confidence!
