    "By the way, I have sent servants here several times. Uncle, are you really not going?" Xun You asked cautiously.

    "If I say I won't go, I won't go. Didn't I tell you that I felt unwell when I came back from the court today and couldn't get out of bed or leave the house." Xun Yu waved his hand impatiently.  [bsp; "Even if my uncle's health is really bad, let my nephew have something to talk about."

    "Just say that I caught a cold or fell off my horse. It's up to you." Xun Yu said unhappily as he walked to the desk, picked up a few military newspapers newly sent by the prime minister's office from the table, and flipped through them.  Turned over.

    "Yuan Shao has recently assembled tens of thousands of troops and horses in Hebei, and is actively hoarding food and grass, and building weapons and armor. It seems that he is preparing to go south soon."

    "Although Yuan Shao has many soldiers, their military discipline is not good, and his subordinates are just a bunch of losers. Tian Feng is just a gangster, Xu You is greedy and does not rule.  They are scheming with each other." Xun Yu said nonchalantly, "As for Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Zha and others, they are only as brave as ordinary men"

    Xun Yu was stunned for a moment. The voice just now was not Xun You's. He looked up from the military report and saw that Xun You had already knelt down, with his head on the ground and did not dare to raise it.  Cao Cao didn't know when he was already standing in the hall. At this time, he took off his red cloak and hung it on the clothes hanger by the door.

    "When the eighteen princes were fighting against Dong, Yuan Shao once told me that he wanted to occupy the Yellow River in the south, block the Yan and Dai in the north, and join forces with the Rong and Di, and go south to fight for the world. Now he is far away from realizing his dream.  There is only one step away, but I happen to be a stumbling block on his way forward, which sounds a bit ironic." As Cao Cao spoke, he walked to sit across from Xun Yu and said with a smile, "Wen Ruo's tea has always been  The best, with the longest aftertaste, why, aren¡¯t Wenruo going to treat me to a few drinks?¡±

    Xun You felt uneasy, so he got up from the ground in a panic, took two cups and placed them in front of Xun Yu and Cao Cao. He also took out the wooden box containing tea at home, brewed a pot of rich tea, and filled it for the two of them.

    Xun Yu frowned: "Wouldn't it be a waste if you brewed such good tea like this?" After saying that, he stood up and took down a wooden box containing a complete set of tea sets from the wooden shelf.  The filtered water was poured into the small purple clay pot, and it started to boil, and a misty fragrance of tea gradually spread.

    Cao Cao picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He frowned and said, "Why is the taste not as pure as before?"

    Xun Yu took the tea cup from Cao Cao, poured out the tea in the cup, rinsed the cup with boiling water, poured another cup of tea, and handed it to Cao Cao.  Cao Cao tasted the fragrance of the tea carefully and said with a smile: "I'm right this time. It turns out that the old tea in the cup was not poured out completely."

    Xun Yu looked at the clear tea in the cup silently, as if looking at his own reflection inside.  After a long time, Xun Yu finally said: "My lord, you didn't come here just to have tea with me today. If it's just to drink tea, my lord, I'm sick and can't accompany you anymore." There was a hint of expelling the guest in his words.

    Xun You¡¯s heart beat fiercely, his whole body began to feel weak, and he almost knelt down.

    Cao Cao was unusually calm and asked, "Does Wen Ruo blame me for being too rude to His Majesty in the court today?"

    "You come to ask me if you know?" Xun Yu turned sideways and did not look at Cao Cao.

    "I'm just guessing. If you don't tell me, how would I know?" Cao Cao shook the tea cup in his hand and watched the tea inside swinging around. For a while, there was no sound in the hall.  Cao Cao sighed lowly, turned around and waved to Xun You, saying: "Gongda, come and sit down too. Your uncle has the talent of a king and his words are very reasonable. He can be said to be my son-in-law."  .¡±

    Xun Yu raised his head and stared at Cao Cao fiercely: "My lord, are you comparing yourself to Emperor Gaozu? It doesn't matter if I compare myself to Marquis Liu (Zhang Liang), but it is disrespectful to compare myself to Emperor Gaozu!"  He knocked the tea cup on the table, raised his eyebrows, and continued: "Today, so many ministers in the court were watching. My lord asked your majesty to add a seal and seal to the edict that he had written. He was afraid that the people in the world would not know that my lord was holding the emperor hostage.  To order the princes? Are you afraid that Master Yuan Shao will be unknown? What is the difference between my lord doing this and Dong Zhuo back then?"

    "Yes." Cao Cao responded in a low voice, "Wen Ruo, you are right. I also know that I am going too far towards the emperor. Could it be that what Wen Ruo can see, can't I? I do this  , has its own difficulties."

    "The difficulty? What difficulty?" Xun Yu laughed coldly.

    Cao Cao shook his head: "Yuan Shao's army has already assembled by the Yellow River. If it is not what I expected, he will definitely form an alliance with Liu Bei behind him. Liu Bei is a royal family member. If Yuan Shao puts on him the great banner of Kuangjun Fuguo,  Hat, even if Liu Da'er doesn't want to send troops, there's nothing he can do. I nowAlthough I hold the territory of the Three States, my strength is far inferior to that of Yuan Shao and Liu Bei who have joined forces, and the veterans in the court regard me as a national traitor. Once we fight Yuan Shao on the Yellow River, there will probably be a fire in the backyard, and we will die by then.  Burial place.  "

    "Just like this, my lord wants to threaten the emperor in court?" Xun Yu's tone softened, "But what's the use?"

    "I have to do it." Cao Cao said in a low voice, "And didn't I teach the emperor before that if you are dissatisfied with me and want to attack me, you have to write a secret edict in blood."

    Xun Yu looked at Cao Cao blankly, and Cao Cao continued: "Just after he came to court, the emperor ordered his uncle Dong Cheng to come in, and went with him to the Hall of Heroes to worship, and also gave him a brocade robe and jade belt. I rushed there in a hurry,  Intercepted Dong Cheng. The brocade robe given by the emperor was of ordinary style, nothing weird, but the purple brocade lining of the jade belt was very interesting. It was not a little bit thicker than the ordinary jade belt. If my guess is correct, there must be  The secret edict is included!"

    Xun Yu suddenly sat upright. He raised his head and saw Cao Cao looking at him intently.  The two looked at each other, and Xun Yu's lips trembled: "My Lord, you want to take this opportunity to kill the king"

    Cao Cao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and smiled: "Where did Wen Ruo go? With you here, how dare I do such a rebellious thing. I have already returned the robe and belt to Dong Cheng and asked him to put it back on." Cao Cao  After taking a sip of tea, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "I have been in the world for so many years, and I have almost lost my life so many times. How can I be afraid? But if you ask me to kill the emperor, I will  I don¡¯t have such courage, nor would I do such a stupid thing. At this time, the decisive battle between me and Yuan Shao is already imminent. No one knows whether this will be the last battle of my life. I just hope that this stop will not let me stay.  It¡¯s a pity. So before the war begins, I must solve all the worries in my own rear. I will kill anyone who dares to disrupt my position!"

    "This is life." Cao Cao gritted his teeth, "This is life."

    Xun Yu looked at Cao Cao's slightly ferocious face quietly, and said nothing for a long time. Finally, Xun Yu stood up and bowed down: "My lord, I am willing to go through fire and water for you, no matter what!"

    "Okay, Wen Ruo, okay!" Cao Cao grabbed Xun Yu's arms and lifted him up.  Cao Cao didn't realize that his hands were inadvertently exerting force, clenching Xun Yu's arms until they hurt.  Cao Cao said to himself: "I have sent people to monitor Dong Cheng. The spy came just now to report that Wang Zifu and others have taken the bait. However, Ma Teng, the governor of Xiliang, has also joined in. This is a bit tricky."

    Xun Yu pondered for a while and said: "Since the death of Dong Zhuo, Li Guo and others, Xiliang's heavy troops have been in the hands of Ma Teng and Han Sui. The two are sworn brothers from Jinlan. If we capture and kill Ma Teng,  Han Sui will definitely raise troops to avenge him. With the strength of our army, there is really no way to extend the battle line so long now, so we have to wait for Ma Teng to leave before taking action."

    Cao Cao tilted his head and looked at Xun Yu, with a worried look on his face.

    Xun Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, my lord, Zhong Yao is guarding the west. Within one year, I guarantee that Xiliang soldiers will not be able to attack Xuchang."

    Cao Cao stared: "Only one year!?"

    Xun Yu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Does my lord think that the final battle between Yuan Shao and us can be delayed for a year?"
