Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 576 The bright moon He Jiaojiao, according to me

Cao Ang finally ended his protracted journey to western Liaoning.

After the Battle of White Wolf Mountain, Wuhuan's main army was destroyed, and Cao Ang, Zhang Liao and others will carry out a new round of attacks on the remnants!

This time was protracted, and it took more than a year...

Today, Cao Ang returned in triumph.

At the gate of the city, countless officials lined up to greet him, surrounded by crowds. Cao Angao sat on his horse. He tried his best to find his master Lu Yu and his father Cao Cao among the officials, but they were not here.

At this moment...a few luxurious oil-painted carts behind Cao Ang slowly opened the curtains, revealing the beautiful faces of orchid beauties among them. They watched the whole Luoyang with unfamiliar timidity.

Even more imaginative... in the future, life here?

In fact, most of them will give meritorious ministers as concubines!Hu Han has been fighting for hundreds of years, and the rules have always been written by the victors.

Winners and losers have been like this since ancient times!
Cao Ang got off his horse and saluted Xun Yu.

Xun Yu returned the salute, and immediately said in a soft voice: "Young master came back just in time. The king of Wei summoned his brothers and heirs in the palace to discuss an important matter. Young master Ang rushed there immediately, there should be still time."

As soon as this remark came out, Cao Ang didn't dare to neglect, and hurried to the Wei Palace.

...

...

The autumn cicadas screamed, and a leaf fell to the ground, and the ground was bleak.

Lu Yu sat on his knees in the study room, eyes closed, as if he was in meditation. From time to time, he used his fingers to draw water drops on the desk case.

It is a line made of three points.

like a map...

Lu Yu said with emotion: "Three points and one line, this trip is not easy!"

Princess Wannian was also in the study room. She was going to grind for Lu Yu, but... the grind was so lonely, the husband didn't even paint, just painted with water droplets.

"This is?"

Blocking the three points and one line on the table, Liu Xue asked.

"These three points are Wancheng, Xinye, and Xiangyang!" Lu Yu opened his mouth and said, "If you want to get from Wancheng to Xiangyang, even if you fly, you need to pass through Xinye!"

"Husband, is he going to fly there?" Liu Xue didn't know about hot air balloons, but Lu Yu's tone was not quite right.

"Oh!" Lu Yu sighed. "I didn't expect, why... is he so courageous?"

"My concubine can't understand what your husband is saying." Liu Xue blinked her big eyes... She couldn't understand what her husband was melancholy at all.

But Lu Yu clicked his mouth "baji", thinking about it in his heart.

Old Cao, old Cao...

In the past, I really underestimated you, thinking that you would rather betray the people of the world than dare to be affectionate... You are also absolutely perfect for women!
Besides, Lu Yu knocked on his forehead. "Am I worthy of your trust?"

he asked talking to himself.

Apparently, because Cao Cao was going to go to Xiangyang City in a hot air balloon this time, Lu Yu felt...Cao Cao's trust in him...was so weird to the point of perversion!
This is simply counterintuitive!
...

...

The Palace of Wei is holding a banquet. There are Cao Cao, Xiahou Dun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Cao Zhang and other Qiaopei brothers and sons.

When Cao Ang came, it was time for the wine to be exchanged.

Cao Cao took Cao Ang with one hand, led him to his side, raised his glass and said, "For more than a year, Ziyou led troops to wipe out western Liaoning, and now the land of western Liaoning has also been incorporated into our territory! It’s a joy, but the greater joy is not here.”

Xiahoudun said: "Ziyou set Wuhuan in the north, and my younger brother Yuxian used Wushi powder to control Xianbei, Southern Huns and other places. Since then, there have been no rebellions among the people on the border. My elder brother said, what is there to be happy about? this!"

On the contrary, Cao Hong rolled his eyes, stood up and said, "Could it be that the eldest brother is going to make a son? Now that we are all in the Kingdom of Wei, the son should indeed be made!"

"Hahaha…"

Hearing this, Cao Cao laughed out loud. "Zi Lian is right. Gu really intends to establish a son, so that the hearts of my great Wei monarchs and ministers will be at ease! However, I originally wanted to announce the candidate for the son on the On the Bronze Sparrow Terrace! Zihuan? How long will it take for these three platforms to be completed?"

"Among them, the Ice Well and the Golden Tiger Tower have already been repaired, and the Tongque Terrace can be erected within half a year."

Because it is related to the position of the son of the world, Cao Pi appears to be extremely active.

Indeed... he is also the one who has a chance!

"Half a year?"

Hearing this, Cao Cao shook his head. "I'm afraid that there will be some accidents in the past six months, so I specially made an edict to establish the son, and hung it under the plaque in the palace of King Wei."

"If there is any accident in Gu Gu, then...you are all members of my clan, you should uncover it together, and attach to him according to the person selected, I am a big man!"

This is out of the way...

Xia Houyuan heard something different, he was one of the few clansmen who knew Lu Yu's true identity.

If you think about it again.

Recently... this big brother and his son-in-law have a certain plan, so... this edict seems to have a lot of meaning.

"Come on, let's drink!" Cao Cao raised his glass again and invited everyone to drink together.

Everyone also raised their glasses one after another, but their eyes were looking behind the plaque in the Palace of Wei... Who is the so-called son in the imperial edict hidden there?
Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang are also full of fantasies.

Especially Cao Pi, his eyes narrowed slightly, showing some seriousness in his eyes, if it was Brother Chong...then...

After the wine was gone, Xia Houyuan accompanied Cao Cao to leave Wei Palace.

While walking, he said softly: "Brother left this imperial edict, but are you worried about the hot air balloon?"

"No!" Cao Cao waved his hand. "Gu trust Yu'er!"

Just these five words have a lot of meaning!
It is true that Cao Cao believed in Lu Yu, but... just in case, Cao Cao saved his hand to ensure that Yu'er could become the prince of Wei!Can hold up the sky of Great Wei, lead Great Wei, and lead these good brothers to rule the country!
Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were going to see Cao Cao off.

But Cao Cao signaled that only Xia Houyuan would be with him...

The two young masters stood at the door not knowing, looking at the bright moon above their heads, feeling melancholy.

"Second brother..." Cao Zhi opened his mouth: "Do you want to be the prince?"

This…

Cao Pi remained silent, neither saying he wanted it nor saying he didn't want it!
Cao Zhi shook his head. "If the eldest son chosen by the father is younger brother Chong, will the second elder brother fight with him? Will he not miss brotherhood?"

After blurting out these words, Cao Pi's eyes looked at Cao Zhi, seeing that his expression was hazy and intoxicated.

"Fourth brother is drunk!"

"Father's favorite is Brother Chong!" Cao Zhi softly groaned...

"Father also likes you!" Cao Pi patted Cao Zhi on the shoulder, "Anyway, the candidate has been decided, and you and my brother will know when the construction of Tongque Terrace is completed!"

Speaking of this, Cao Pi paused. "Whether it's you, me, brother Chong, or brother Zhang, as long as it's someone my father recognizes, we should all swear allegiance to the death, shouldn't we?"

call…

Cao Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the sky again, he seemed to have an ominous premonition in his heart.

—— "The bright moon is so bright, it shines on my bed and curtain, I go out of the house and wander alone, who should I tell my worries?"

For a while, Cao Zhi sighed to the corner.

"Second brother will take you back!" Cao Pi helped Cao Zhi up.

Cao Zhi was still humming. "Going out of the house and wandering alone, who should I sue for my worries? Second brother... I heard that you ordered someone to buy some poisonous rats from the Western Regions!"

call out…

As soon as this remark came out, Cao Pi was taken aback, and hurriedly covered Cao Zhi's mouth.

"Who did you hear that from? Second brother has never bought these!"

"I can't say, I can't say..." Cao Zhi just waved his hand...

...

...

Nanyang, Wancheng!
Since Zhang Xiu surrendered to Cao Cao in the past, Wancheng has become a major military county connecting Jingzhou to Nanyang.

In fact, Runan, which is further down, is closer to Xinye City in a straight line, but because of the many mountains, Zhuge Jun and Liu Ye still chose this place.

Today, a plain on the outskirts of the city is heavily guarded...

No one knows what's going on here.

No one will see the flying ball in the sky that floats into the clouds.

Cao Cao wants to take a hot air balloon, this is not a joke, for this reason... Liu Ye and Zhuge Jun have been busy for half a month, flying from Wancheng to Xiangyang City, and then flying back... It can be said that they have flown no less than ten Second-rate!
The whole airspace is very familiar!

At this moment... more than 30 outstanding fighters and craftsmen selected from the Longxiao Camp and workshops have long been gearing up. Of course... there are only [-] to [-] of them who really have the experience of flying to and from Xiangyang!

Every morning, they will fly one by one, lift the hot air balloon into the sky, plunge into the clouds, and then try to go south, passing Xinye City, passing Jingshui, and finally landing in the sky above Xiangyang City.

even…

In recent times, I have chosen a quiet place in the suburbs of Xiangyang, and landed here...

Liu Ye is the one with the most flying experience!
He personally practiced every flying ball soldier he selected, and even...according to Lu Yu's proposal, he had to fly safely for more than [-] hours before he could be alone!
this day...

A low-key carriage parked here at the school grounds.

Cao Cao and Lu Yu walked out of the carriage slowly.

Liu Ye immediately presented the map, which was created by overlooking the earth from the sky, he said on his own initiative. "King Wei, Marquis Baima, the southwest wind is suitable for flying these few days, and the material consumption is the least. If you want to fly to Xiangyang, if you miss today... you will really miss it!"

Cao Cao looked around at the hot air balloons ready to go.

"Are you all ready?"

"Dry rations and weapons are ready, and they can take off at any time!" Liu Ye said truthfully.

Hearing this, Lu Yu interjected: "Wei Wang must think clearly, even if he flies, the place he flies to is the hostile Jingzhou! How about..."

Before Lu Yu could finish speaking.

Cao Cao immediately waved his hand. "I believe in Uncle Liu Huang, I believe in Long Xiaoying, I believe in that Zhuge's son-in-law!"

Speaking of this, Cao Cao put his hand on Lu Yu's shoulder. "Gu believes in you more!"

After finishing his sentence, Cao Cao waved his arms.

"set off!"

In an instant, five or six hot air balloons entered a tense state.

The order has been communicated.

This time there are four hot air balloons, and two more will be escorted to Jinghe, where they will wait for pick-up... Cao Cao's ship is operated by "old driver" Liu Ye himself.

Zhuge Jun also participated in it and was the operator of one of them!
It's afternoon, no wind...

It took off at this time, and when it flew to Xiangyang City in Jingzhou, it happened to be dark... This is good for hiding and action!
Cao Cao jumped into the rattan basket, and did not forget to wave to Lu Yu. The second time he made a hot air balloon, he was not as nervous as the first time.

Under Liu Ye's order, the hot air balloons had already untied their ropes and began to fly.

Liu Ye handed Cao Cao a special protective goggle mirror developed by the workshop, and the two tacitly covered their legs with the cup... It was quite cold in the sky.

Xu Chu was in the same rattan basket as Liu Ye and Cao Cao.

This is also Cao Cao's reliance, as long as he can land safely, even if he is discovered, Xu Chu is there...he has no doubt that Xu Chu can break out of the encirclement behind his back!
Losing the pull of the rope on the ground, the hot air balloon quickly vacated.

While speaking, the hot air balloon flew to the designated airflow layer.

The flyball started flying south...

Xu Chu was standing at first, as if this could maintain his burly posture, but his hair couldn't be prevented from being blown up by the strong wind, and he was unkempt for a while, looking extremely embarrassed, so Xu Chu had no choice but to sit down and lie down under the quilt.

"Zhongkang, there is no need to be on guard in the air."

Cao Cao seemed very courageous, he handed some dried large yellow croakers to Xu Chu. "Eat some, Zhongkang's favorite big yellow croaker, save your energy, there is still a tough battle tonight."

Xu Chu touched the big knife on the back of his waist, it seemed... as soon as his feet were off the ground, only by putting his hands on the knife could he gain the long-lost sense of security.

Cao Cao asked Liu Ye with great interest.

"Uncle Liu Huang, Gu has only heard of 'Ai Huo makes chickens fly' before, what kind of magic did you use to make this ball fly people?"

"This..." Liu Ye shook his head. "In terms of merit, the Marquis of the White Horse must be number one, the Prime Minister's son-in-law Zhuge is the second, and I can be the third at most! Haha..."

Liu Ye maintains an inherent humility.

"King Wei, sometimes I will have a lot of doubts! How many things are hidden in Baimahou's mind... He can make the thunderbolt chariot a hundred times more powerful, he can make the wooden cow and horse move by itself, and he can also create that shaved car. A fine steel halberd that is as iron as mud, plus this hot air balloon!"

Speaking of this, Liu Ye paused. "To tell you the truth, King Wei, I, Liu Ye, think highly of myself when it comes to all kinds of crafts, but... when I met Lu Ziyu, I realized that I couldn't see Mount Tai!"

Ah…

Hearing this, Cao Cao laughed. He likes to hear others praise his son, no... not his son, but the prince of Wei!

"It's such a one-leaf blinder who can't see Mount Tai! After so many years, why didn't Gu feel this way?"

Inside the wicker basket…

Cao Cao and Liu Ye chatted gradually, and outside the rattan basket, under the blowing of the southwest wind and the blessing of power, the hot air balloon quickly flew towards Jingzhou!

...

...

Jingzhou, Xiangyang City...

It was almost dusk in a garden, but Mrs. Cai appeared here. She searched left and right, but saw Zhao Yun walking out from behind the flowers and trees.

He was wearing casual clothes, a cape, and a hat.

Quickly taking off the bamboo hat, Zhao Yun walked to Madam Cai, and the eyes of the two met.

"Unexpectedly, the person who brought me the message was actually General Zhao Zilong under Liu Shijun?"

Mrs. Cai opened her mouth and said...

Zhao Yunyu's air pressure was low.

"Since the madam is here, I probably know about it. Both my lord and the military adviser know about the madam's actions."

"And then?" Mrs. Cai took the initiative to ask.

As if... Because of Yang Xiu's reminder, she had expected that Liu Bei would send someone to talk to him.

only…

I didn't expect it to be so fast.

"If madam welcomes the eldest son back and encourages the eldest son to become the master of Jingzhou, then my lord and military adviser will definitely protect Jingzhou, protect madam, and prevent madam from any harm!"

"What if Madam Ben refuses?" Madam Cai's tone was cold. "Then... Your lord and military advisor are planning to fight this lady to the death, right?"

"Liu Shijun and the military adviser don't want to go this far!" Zhao Yun's tone was decisive.

"Hmph..." Mrs. Cai said coldly: "No wonder the newspapers sent back from the northern border listed many unknown 'stories' of your lord? Looking at it today, Liu Shijun is really what the newspapers told—— hypocrisy!"

"Madam, please make a decision." Zhao Yun did not take Madam Cai's words, but said coldly.

"I need some time!" Mrs. Cai seemed to compromise... "Ten days, go back and tell your master, after ten days, I will give him the answer!"

Speaking of this, Madam Cai slowly exited the garden and boarded the carriage again.

Zhao Yun, on the other hand, remained motionless, only seeing Mrs. Cai go away.

at this time…

"rustle…"

There was a slight sound behind the flowers and trees, and a man came out of it.

"Gongyou, you heard it too!"

Zhao Yun groaned.

The Gongyou he was talking about was Sun Gan, a staff member under Liu Bei's tent.

Speaking of which, he was recommended by his master Zheng Xuan to join Xuzhou in the past. When Liu Bei led Xuzhou pastor, Sun Qian was engaged.

Of course, the relationship between the two is not simple.

You know, Zheng Xuan and Lu Zhi are both disciples of the great Confucian Ma Rong, Liu Bei is Lu Zhi's disciple, and Sun Qian is Zheng Xuan's disciple. Calculated in this way, both of them are the fourth generation disciples of Confucian classics.

Liu Bei is the master, so he can be called the "fourth generation head", and Sun Qian is the follower, so... when Liu Bei loses again and again, he will never leave!

"Zilong, I'll go back and report your conversation with Mrs. Cai to Liu Shijun and the military advisor!"

"It's work!"

Zhao Yun and Sun Qian bowed to each other.

With a sound of "De De De", Sun Gan had already walked away, while Zhao Yun narrowed his eyes... staring at the sky obsessively.

In his opinion…

——There is not much time left for Lu Ziyu!

But at this moment, under the dusk, among the clouds, Zhao Yun suddenly saw something!
球…

A round sphere is falling from top to bottom!
