Chapter 1,105 Your Majesty, Please Take Your Place
How should I put it? The impact that Yi Xiaotian's arrival brought to Yang Xiu and Ding Yi was no less than that of Cao Cao's personal presence.
The key is that the information revealed by Yi Xiaotian in just a few words made Yang Xiuru sit on pins and needles. He no longer had the same ambition as yesterday.
"Dezu...what...what should we do?"
"First... let's follow up and take a look... We need to know first what the Prime Minister said to Mr. - if... if Mr. really wants to get involved in this battle to establish an heir, then all the situations and plans will change...
"
"The main thing I don't understand is why Sir came to see the Fourth Young Master personally... Zhengli, do you have any way to inquire about the Prime Minister's whereabouts in the past few days? Sir, you have gone out personally, and maybe the Prime Minister has sent other people to go out.
"
Ding Yi was thinking about countermeasures and weighing the difficulty - and finally gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement:
"Okay! Keep it with me, Dezu, hurry up and see where Mr. Yi is taking the lord... I... I have a bad feeling..."
Ding Yi shrank his neck, recalling his first meeting with Yi Xiaotian. The erratic temperament of the other person made it extremely uncomfortable for a person like him who really likes to explore secrets.
Not being able to see through a person... This is definitely a big deal for Ding Yi.
Yang Xiu also nodded solemnly, and after saying goodbye to Ding Yi, he quickly rushed towards the direction where Yi Xiaotian and Cao Zhi left.
As soon as they arrived outside the house, they found that the two of them had already boarded a carriage and drove towards the south of the city. This made Yang Xiu confused.
But... Yang Xiu definitely wouldn't give up until he figured out where they were going.
——
At the same time, Cao Pi, who was still living in seclusion in Qili, was planning to go out and consult Cui Yan with part of the strategy he had just formulated.
After a night of planning, several precautions put forward by Cui Yan deeply awakened Cao Pi.
It also made Cao Pi realize how much knowledge his cheap teacher actually had. With such a person assisting him, and Sima Yi who always came up with crooked ideas, Cao Pi always felt that his future was a bright one.
magnanimous.
However…
Just when he was about to go out, there was a knock on the door outside the house.
"Who is outside the door?"
"Xun came here uninvited. I hope the second young master won't be surprised."
"Xun..."
As soon as Cao Pi heard the other party's voice, he was so frightened that he quickly hid the letter in his hand.
I don't know what happened. Maybe Sima Yi didn't lock them up when they left at night. Xun Yu actually broke in while he was in a hurry.
The two looked at each other, and soon Xun Yu glanced at the letter that Cao Pi had not put in his arms, smiled slightly, and said nothing more.
"Xun...Xun Lingjun, what kind of wind brought you here today?"
"No...no...how did you know that I live here..."
Cao Pi suddenly realized something big, and his eyes when he looked at Xun Yu immediately changed from frightened to panicked.
"Well, it's up to you, Second Young Master, to explore for yourself. Mr. Xun just followed the instructions and came to look for Second Young Master to go somewhere. I hope Second Young Master will not refuse-"
When he said this, Xun Yu took out a jade pendant from his arms and waved it in front of Cao Pi's eyes, which made Cao Pi tremble all over.
"It's father..."
"Shhh - the walls have ears. Second Young Master, all you have to do is come with me."
Xun Yu interrupted Cao Pi mysteriously, not allowing him to question at all, and left without looking back.
Cao Pi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't dare to show any signs of neglect and quickly followed.
The alley in Qili was relatively spacious. The two of them walked to the entrance of the alley and boarded the carriage. They seemed not to notice a man in black who had been crouching under the banyan tree in the distance of the alley.
When the carriage gradually moved away, the man in black finally came out and lifted his hood. The face under the shadow was Cui Yan.
Cui Yan stared at the direction the carriage was leaving, narrowed his eyes slightly, and murmured to himself:
"Xun Lingjun? Why him?"
——
Someone who also encountered similar things was Cao Ang, who was still diligently supervising farming in Liang State.
Early in the morning, Cao Ang was planning to go to the fields outside the city to take a look at the results of yesterday's plowing by the soldiers. As a result, before he could walk out of the city gate, a group of cavalry came to him from a distance outside the city.
forward.
When Cao Ang saw the identity of the person, he was a little confused for a moment:
"Second uncle? Why are you here?"
The person whom Cao Ang called his second uncle was Cao Ren's younger brother Cao Chun. Cao Chun, who was supposed to hold many positions in Xudu, now arrived in Liangguo County alone. It was inevitable that Cao Ang would be confused.
The key...as soon as the opponent saw Cao Ang, without saying a word, he directly pulled him onto the horse beside him.
"Second uncle, what are you..."
Cao Ang was naturally surprised and suspicious. He wanted to stop Cao Chun first, but he saw Cao Chun pointing at his nose and saying:
"You kid is living a comfortable life in this remote country. You don't have to worry about anything that happens in Yecheng, right?"
"No...actually...I am myself..."
Just as Cao Ang wanted to explain something, he was interrupted again by Cao Chun:
"Okay, I'm not here to scold you this time. Someone will take over for you after noon. You can quickly follow me to Yecheng -"
"Ah? Back to Yecheng? What's going on?"
Cao Chun didn't explain much. He took out Cao Cao's jade pendant and gave it to Cao Ang to take a look.
When he saw his father's jade pendant, Cao Ang immediately lost his opinion.
Seeing how obedient Cao Ang was, Cao Chun smiled and patted his shoulder and whispered to him:
"Don't lose the face of those people like you, Uncle Er!"
"drive!"
Hearing Cao Chun's loud shout, the horse ran towards the outside of the city like an arrow from its string.
Cao Ang didn't have time to think about the meaning of Cao Chun's words just now, so he could only follow him immediately.
——
At the same moment, three powerful heirs were summoned at the same time. Such a transfer was naturally inseparable from the conversation between Yi Xiaotian and Cao Cao and others.
At this moment, Cao Cao returned to his study as usual and looked through the documents calmly. However, he was not as calm as he appeared on the surface. He was actually quite nervous inside -
"After today, the assessment will completely kick off. I don't know how Cao Ang and the others will perform in this pre-test."
Having said that, Jia Xu, who was opposite, looked at Cao Cao's raised lips and naturally murmured in his heart:
"You are not worried. You obviously just want to see them make a joke."
"A joke? I just don't want to see my future heir be the type of person who is motivated by sex and causes big things to happen."
Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said - the fact is that since the battle of Chibi, Yi Xiaotian reminded him that Cao Cao has almost never been close to a woman again.
During the period after Red Cliff ended, Cao Cao reflected deeply on himself every day, and Yi Xiaotian gave him a hand later, so that he would not sink completely.
With the experience of that period, Cao Cao naturally knew what his future heir should look like and what he should not look like.
