The Three Kingdoms Began with the Abduction of Luoshen

His eyes swept across the table full of dishes, and Cao Cao's expression changed slightly.

Without hesitation, he turned around and left the side hall.

Xun Yu and Xu Chu were waiting outside the hall, both of them were a little puzzled:

Why is the Prime Minister so procrastinating?

Are you doing something unsightly...

Thinking of this, Xun Yu and Xu Chu's eyes narrowed slightly, if Cheng was really eating alone, it would be too much.

Before he could think about it, Cao Cao had already walked to the main hall.

I saw him beckoning and shouting:

"Lingjun, Zhongkang, why are you here?"

Xun Yu looked solemn and said in a deep voice:

"Report to the Prime Minister, Wei Chen is here for Nanpi and Yuan Tan, and I hope the Prime Minister will make an early decision."

Cao Cao frowned slightly, a little puzzled.

Could it be that these two people have important things, and they are not greedy for words, and they are too preoccupied with each other?

If so, you can breathe a sigh of relief.

Nanpi is the border city of Jizhou, which was occupied by Yuan Tan's army after Cao Cao's attack on Yecheng.

Earlier, in order to fight for the throne, Yuan Tan chose to join Cao Cao to fight Yuan Shang, and finally turned against the water again.

Let Yuan Tan separate Nanpi, of course not.

If Cao Cao wants to attack Youzhou and Bingzhou, he must clear Jizhou to ensure that the rear is safe.

Otherwise, if the army is exhausted, Jizhou will be empty and difficult to defend, and it will be a bit ridiculous to be picked by others.

So Cao Cao nodded and said in a deep voice:

"Ling-jun is here at the right time. I have decided to use troops next month to retake the territory of Nanpi in one fell swoop."

After thinking about it again, Cao Cao asked Xu Chu:

"You have something important to do, Zhongkang, why are you here?"

The corners of Xu Chu's mouth twitched slightly, secretly saying that it is not good:

I am afraid that Lingjun was already prepared, but he did not say anything to remind him. This move is really not interesting.

But he soon got an idea, and said with his hands:

"Report to the Prime Minister, the last will be here to ask to be a pioneer."

Cao Cao was a little puzzled, frowned and said:

"I haven't reorganized my troops yet. What does this have to do with you? Did your majesty tell you?"

Xu Chu looked indifferent and replied:

"Prime Minister Mingjian, the last general has already discussed it with Lingjun."

Xun Yu snorted and did not respond.

I didn't expect that this silly man was quite witty, his mind turned so fast, and he threw the pot directly on him.

After Cao Cao considered it, he agreed:

"Ling-jun really has foresight, Yuan Tan is Yuan Shao's eldest son, and has a very high prestige in Jizhou.

Although the forces under his command are not as great as before, they should not be taken lightly, and the generals should rush to kill the enemy. "

Hearing this, Xu Chu couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved.

Can this also praise Xun Yu?

Now that he talked about serious matters, Cao Cao forgot about the hot pot and talked freely to the two:

"The two of you are my confidants, and after Yuan Tan has been slain, the army will go north to beg Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang.

As long as You and Erzhou are pacified, and the situation in the northern part of Dahan is stable, we can start preparing for the south. "

However, Xun Yu shook his head and reminded:

"The prime minister hasn't thought about it yet. The Yuan clan has always been friendly with foreigners, such as the Wuhuan and other frontier enemies, as well as Gongsun Kang, who is entrenched in Liaodong. If the Yuan clan brothers defect, what should they do?"

Cao Cao was stunned, and then said:

"Lingjun reminds me that I almost miscalculated."

…

The mansion behind the government office.

Cao Pi sat on the bed, his face haggard and pale. He looked at the dishes on the table and said angrily:

"Oh, what are these things, it's hard to swallow!"

Since his return from Qingyun Village, Cao Pi has been in a bad mood.

At that time, although I was locked in a small dark room, I ate deliciously every day. How could it be like this?

The table full of delicacies from the mountains and seas is not as good as a mouthful of braised pork.

Thinking of this, Cao Pi couldn't help but regret.

If I had been thicker-skinned and ordered more food from the villagers, I wouldn't have been so obsessed with it now.

At this moment, Cao Pi suddenly smelled a fragrance.

"Where does the taste come from, it is so fragrant, is it a new dish researched by the back kitchen?"

Thoughts turned slightly, Cao Pi couldn't help being a little excited.

Although I have eaten food these days, I don't feel happy, and my life is full of loneliness.

But the scent was different, and it easily aroused Cao Pi's appetite, making him impatient.

"No, I have to go and see."

Although he didn't know the specific situation, Cao Pi's thirst for food prompted him to take the initiative to look for it.

When he came to the door, Cao Pi took a deep breath, and then he wondered:

"There...isn't the father's office?"

Shaking his head lightly, Cao Pi suddenly realized:

"Could it be a surprise specially prepared by my father!"

The smell became more and more impulsive, and the more I smelled it, the more I wanted to eat it. Cao Pi stomped his feet and hurried over.

When he arrived at the scene, he found that both Mrs. Bian and Cao Zhi were there, and his expression suddenly became a little embarrassed.

"Mother, fourth brother, how are you!"

Cao Pi said hello first.

Mrs. Bian was calm, smiled and said:

"It's okay, your brothers sit first, and when your father comes, you'll know what it's doing."

The three looked at the boiling thick soup, fresh vegetables and raw meat, and seemed a little helpless.

Cao Pi had never eaten hot pot, nor did he know how to eat hot pot.

At this moment, the three have two questions in their minds:

Why is this soup so delicious?

Why is this dish raw?

Just when the three were stunned, the atmosphere in the hall was a little weird.

When Xun Yu and Cao Cao were negotiating, Xu Chu had nowhere to intervene.

He just felt bored, and suddenly smelled a scent, that familiar and charming taste, isn't it hot pot?

Immediately afterwards, Xun Yu also smelled it, and his eyes flashed...

Cao Cao choked violently. He only focused on dealing with Xun Yu and the two of them, but he forgot that his fire was still burning.

At this moment, the fragrance is everywhere, and it is obvious that it cannot be concealed.

In this case, Cao Cao stood up immediately and said:

"I just heard the report from the guards, and knowing that you are here, I specially prepared hot pot.

It should be almost cooked by now. Lingjun and Zhongkang will follow me to taste it. "

Having said that, Cao Cao felt a little helpless.

Unlike Qingyun Village, after all, he only has three packs of base ingredients in total, and it can be said that he eats one less time.

Now there are two more, which is really a heavy loss.

Xun Yu and Xu Chu had nothing to say. Cao Cao gave face like this, and of course they happily agreed.

When Cao Cao came to the side hall again and saw three people sitting among them, his face was instantly embarrassed.

"Madam, Pi'er, Zhi'er, why are you all here?"

Mrs. Bian led her two sons to salute and said:

"We smelled the strange fragrance here, so I came here to see, husband, what are you doing?"

Cao Cao coughed twice and said:

"Cough, since we're here, let's eat together!"

Mrs. Bian stared at the soup base and pondered:

"Husband, do you mean drinking soup?"

Cao Cao had given up the struggle, explaining:

"This thing is called hot pot. It boils raw meat and vegetables, and it's really delicious."

Mrs. Bian suddenly realized that if Cao Cao was a little later, I am afraid that the three of them would have a bowl of soup.

After all, this taste is really tempting, how can you resist it?

Cao Cao waved his hand and said:

"Hotpot needs a lot of people to be delicious. Lingjun and Zhongkang, you should also take your seats. Don't be polite."

For some reason, Cao Cao's remarks seemed to be biting his teeth.

But this is secondary, delicious and tempting!
