Chapter 185: An awkward situation

Zhong Yao and Chen Qun are both important ministers under Cao Cao now, and they were "talents" personally recommended by Xun Yu back then.

They still maintain a close relationship with Xun Yu and Xun You, playing together, climbing high to compose poems, and chatting freely about the world.

For these things, they had frequent interactions on a daily basis.

But this is just a friendship between friends, laughing and chatting has nothing to do with life or death.

When it comes to the future of the Xun family and changes in the political situation, they may just be a cold observer.

And people like Dong Zhao may even add fuel to the flames.

After all, compared to their future and fame, the existence of the Xun family is nothing more than a "stepping stone."

The future of the Xun family must be in the hands of the Xun family.

The current head of the Xun family is none other than Xun Yu.

But he was already planning to fight to the death with Cao Cao, and naturally he couldn't take care of the Xun family.

Suddenly, Xun Yu sighed helplessly.

He said seriously: "Gongda, you are wrong. I have to fight for this matter, but you don't!"

He is the spokesperson of the Xun family and the "initiator" who contributed to Cao Cao's current power.

Now that Cao Cao is unwilling to follow his original ideal path to the end, he is the only one who should be responsible for this matter.

And Xun You, as the most prestigious Xun family member in the court and family besides Xun Yu, must shoulder the responsibility of passing on and prospering the Xun family.

As soon as Xun Yu's words came out of his mouth, Xun You understood what he meant. He was already preparing for the last fight, and before this fight, he had to hand over the responsibility on his shoulders to Xun You's shoulders.

Xun You said: "Fourth uncle, I have something to say, I don't know whether I should say it or not."

He looked hesitant and didn't want to say anything anymore, but he finally said this.

Xun Yu suddenly smiled and said, "Now, is there anything we can't say between you and me?"

Xun You also smiled, but there was a hint of bitterness in his smile.

He said: "Actually, Fourth Uncle, have you ever thought about whether today's big man is really worth fighting for?"

Since Dong Zhuo entered the capital, the authority of the Han Dynasty was gradually emptied out, and in the hands of Cao Cao, it was completely emptied.

What's left is just an empty shell!

Xun Yu smiled bitterly and said: "Think about it, when Emperor Zhongzong succeeded to the throne, the authority of the imperial court was not in the hands of the emperor. However, the Han Dynasty was finally revived. Now, if Cao Gong had not changed his mind, why could the Emperor Xuan's revival not be repeated?

?”

When he first found Cao Cao, he valued Cao Cao's ability to unify the world. In addition, Cao Cao was dedicated to reforming the current situation when he was young and wanted to restore the authority of the Han Dynasty. He was simply his ideal partner.

It's just that he didn't expect that his partner who was more in love than Jin Jian at the time would eventually change his heart.

Xun You said: "My fourth uncle compared the current situation to that of the time of Emperor Xuan, but I don't think so. During the time of Emperor Xuan, the world was peaceful. Although Huo Guang dared to abolish the establishment, he did not dare to overstep it. But now, all the heroes in the world have risen together, and the world is in chaos.

If it weren't for Duke Cao's conquests in all directions, I don't know how many people in the world would be crowned kings and how many would be crowned emperors."

When he said this, he carefully observed Xun Yu's expression, and then said: "Now that Mr. Cao is an old general, he wants to benefit the world so that future generations will have no worries. It is really human nature..."

He originally had another sentence, "You shouldn't be too harsh", but before he could say this, Xun Yu interrupted him.

"Others may be able to do these words and these things, but Mr. Cao cannot!"

At this time, Xun Yu still called Cao Cao Duke Cao instead of calling him by his first name.

When Xun You heard this, he immediately kept silent.

This is the difference between him and Xun Yu. Xun Yu was upright and full of idealism.

But he is good at disguise and good at seeing through things without telling them.

This is also the reason why Xun Yu gave Xun You the important task of protecting the Xun family.

Having said that, Xun You and Xun Yu have nothing more to say.

Xun You didn't stay any longer and quietly left.



The night has not gone, but the silence has quietly passed away.

On the street, a fierce chase once again started.

The person being chased was still Qu Feng, but the number of people chasing him changed from two to five.

This time, Qu Feng felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.

He suddenly realized that this time, it seemed a little difficult for him to escape.

However, he still ran as hard as he could, looking for ways to confuse his pursuers.

After crossing three streets, he suddenly had an idea and ducked into a small alley.

He was not from Yecheng, so he hid in the alley just to find an opportunity to jump into a house, and then hid in a series of houses, waiting for an opportunity to escape.

It's dark now, and it's not easy to find a person in a crowd of private houses.

And when it's daytime, he can even take off his night clothes, wear ordinary people's clothes, and walk on the street with swagger.

It's really easy to get past someone without being seen through.

With this idea in mind, he entered the alley, then ran into a branch road, spotted an ordinary house, and jumped in.

The walls of these private houses were much shorter than the walls of Cao Zhi's mansion, so Qu Feng could easily gain a foothold within the walls.

But this time, he didn't have the same luck as before. Just as he was about to move forward to find a safe hiding place, he couldn't help but stop and didn't even dare to move.

Because there was already a sword on his neck, a sword that was full of chills under the moonlight.

"Now, I'll give you a chance to get out from where you came! Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be another dead soul under this sword."

The man holding the sword spoke very calmly, as if killing someone was a very common thing for him.

Qu Feng's mood suddenly fell to the extreme. He did not expect that he seemed to have chosen a dead end unintentionally.

He didn't expect that at such a late night, there would be someone still awake, and this person was so bored that he was standing in the courtyard with a sword.

What made him even more speechless was that the place where he landed happened to be right in front of this person.

He doesn't even have a way to deal with it now.

"Okay, I hope you keep your promise!"

Now he has no choice. In order to survive, he can only choose to agree.

However, just as he was about to turn around and exit, he suddenly heard a conversation coming from outside the wall.

"Brother! I don't have any here!"

"Lao San, where are you?"

"Brother, I searched the street and found no sign of that person!"

"Hell, can he still have wings and fly?"

"Brother, could he climb over the wall and enter a private house?"

"Fourth, you are still smart, why didn't I think of it! You guys guard the alley, I'll call for the city patrol. This time, we must not let him escape!"

"Brother, don't worry!"

As the four people answered in unison, Qu Feng's stopped steps felt as if he had been nailed to the ground and could not be lifted up.

"Apart from this, do I have any other options?"
