Xiahou Dun closed his eyes, as if he was suffering death calmly. Immediately, a lot of blood spurted onto Xiahou Dun's face.
It is the blood of many of his soldiers.
It was like raindrops falling on my face, giving me a salty feeling.
Xi Yu didn't waste any time and immediately ended Xiahou Dun's life.
Xiahou Dun immediately lay down and died without closing his eyes.
The sun shone on his face, and blood flowed from his neck.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the entire venue became particularly quiet.
Many of Xiahou Dun's soldiers chose to surrender.
"Very good. I don't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Since you have surrendered, I will naturally be generous and merciful."
The soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.
Xi Yu asked the soldiers to start cleaning up the mess.
At the same time, spread the word.
In this way, Youzhou can be regarded as its own territory.
Then set up camp.
Xi Yu specifically asked the soldiers to escort Guan Yu to him.
Guan Yu's red face still showed an angry look.
"Xiahou Dun is dead, will Guan be the next to die?"
Xi Yu looked at his face and found it ridiculous with the angry expression.
"Guan Yu, please sit down."
But the seven-foot-tall man snorted from his nose and refused to sit down.
One soldier was very angry.
"Guan Yu, you simply don't know how to praise me. The Marquis loves you very much."
Guan Yu glared at the soldiers and looked at the ground again.
"If you want to kill or behead me, Guan won't frown. Don't stay here, mother-in-law and mother-in-law."
Xi Yu was also very angry, but she also knew that Guan Yu was not an ordinary person.
It is a good thing to have pride, and it is much better than being groveling and flattering.
"Okay, you all step back, and I'll talk to General Guan about what's on your mind."
Xi Yu waved his hand and told the soldiers to retreat.
After that, Xi Yu stood up and pressed Guan Yu's arm forcefully, making him sit down.
"Guan Yu, sooner or later I will let you know that I am a hundred times stronger than Liu Bei."
Xi Yu knew that these words would touch Guan Yu's nerves.
Sure enough, Guan Yu was furious and the veins on his face burst out.
"Don't get angry first. Listen to what I have to say. Getting angry casually will hurt your liver."
Guan Yu snorted again and stopped making any sound.
I thought, if that's the case, let me hear you finish and see what you can say.
"General Guan, first of all, I admire you because you are not the kind of person who is groveling. It would be much better if everyone could be like you."
Guan Yu felt that Xi Yu was really disgusting to say such words.
"General Guan, I know what you are thinking. You must think I am hypocritical, right? Anyway, there is a fact. The reason why I am telling you so much now is that I think you are a talent."
"This victory actually has something to do with you, because everyone regards you as a Guan Sage and a Martial Sage, so everyone can move forward bravely and finally kill Xiahou Dun."
But Guan Yu's face turned even redder this time.
This is not a blush of complexion, but a bit of shame.
What did you actually do?
Although he hated Xi Yu, he had to admit that Xi Yu commanded well.
And there is a powerful secret guard organization, so we invited experts to assist.
"Stop treating me poorly. What does this matter have to do with me?"
"No, the relationship is huge. You are the embodiment of loyalty and courage."
Xi Yu walked around Guan Yu.
After that, he continued to laugh.
"I appreciate how loyal you are to Liu Xuande. If you were a duplicitous person, I wouldn't have told you so much. But your foolish loyalty has been restricted, that is, only to you three brothers.
If you do that, you should be paying attention to the people all over the world."
Xi Yu knew that Guan Yu's status would not be that high, so he had to teach him a good lesson.
In fact, Xi Yu really wanted to say bad things about Liu Bei.
But he knew that it was counterproductive.
"What I am doing now is not for my personal benefit, but for the people. Whenever I see the people suffering, my heart is as sharp as a knife."
He then told the story of his meeting with the old woman and his nephew and niece.
"If I lied to you, I would be struck by lightning."
At the same time, he gave some examples.
That is, in Xiapi, many people live and work in peace and contentment.
Guan Yu was silent.
Regarding the work that Xi Yu did, Liu Xuande really couldn't do it.
Have you always been arrogant?
Have you really confined yourself to a small circle all this time?
Now after listening to Xi Yu's words, he felt deeply.
And the expression on his face also changed slightly.
Although he didn't say anything anymore, Xi Yu knew that his words finally moved him.
"So General Guan, this Youzhou has become my territory. I hope to keep you here to protect Youzhou in the future."
Guan Yu's eyes were extremely wide.
There is such a thing?
He himself is not from the Xiyu camp.
Xi Yu actually wants to value himself so highly?
"Don't think too much, it's just because you are a talent. You can also think that I can win people's hearts, but you have to understand that only if you have the qualifications and the capital are you worthy of being bought by me, are you right?"
Xi Yu also knew that Guo Jia, Zhou Yu and others would definitely object to this decision.
But that's what he decided.
"Guan is just a martial artist. He doesn't know how to manage. I hope you can take back your life."
Guan Yu finally respectfully clasped his fists at Xi Yu.
"If I say you can do it, then you can do it, so don't refuse."
Xi Yu didn't seem to be discussing with him, but giving orders. At the same time, he gave some examples.
That is, in Xiapi, many people live and work in peace and contentment.
Guan Yu hesitated even more.
"You now need a strong psychological quality to convince yourself. You are just in a hurdle, thinking that a loyal minister cannot protect the two masters. I have already said that you are thinking about the people of the world."
At the same time, Xi Yu said that no third person knew about this matter yet.
Let Guan Yu go back and think about it carefully.
It’s not too late to reply to myself in a few days.
Because now that I have just taken over Youzhou, everything is waiting to be done.
"Okay, General Guan, please retreat first."
Guan Yu left Xi Yu's side, and he felt particularly heavy in his heart.
On the other side, Sima Yi, who was eating, asked the old man to quickly plug Scarface's mouth with a cloth to prevent him from yelling any more.
He wasn't worried, Scarface's men went back to move troops.
Because as long as Scarface is here, they won't act rashly.
In order to thank him, the old man decided to give him a free meal today.
But the old man was worried about a problem.
This guest will always leave. What if he takes revenge in the future?
It doesn't matter to me, but I still have my granddaughter.
The girl also expressed her gratitude to Sima Yi and apologized to him.
At first, I thought he was a bad person.
Sima Yi smiled: "I look more vicious."
Seeing the old man sighing constantly, Sima Yi felt like a mirror. Of course he knew what the old man was worried about.
Suddenly, he saw Scarface's dagger on the table.
His heart skipped a beat, he picked up the dagger and stabbed the scarred face suddenly.
Until Scarface is killed.
The old man and his granddaughter were both shocked, especially the girl who threw herself directly into the old man's arms.
Sima Yi turned around and said, "Why don't you just stop doing it and move?"
He also said that he was a little impulsive today.
Just to save the little girl, without thinking too much about the consequences.
The old man sighed when he saw that Scarface was dead.
His eyes looked at his granddaughter.
"Cui Cui, there is something that grandpa has hidden from you."
Only then did Sima Yi find out that this girl was called Cuicui.
"Grandpa, what were you talking about just now? What were you hiding from me?"
The old man sighed. In fact, he had already been diagnosed with a serious illness.
This disease is extremely difficult and there is no cure at all.
So he has had enough life and is just worried about Cuicui.
Since he is like this now, why not just find a place to spend the rest of his life and let Cuicui follow Sima Yi.
Although in terms of age, Sima Yi is a bit older.
But he is also a heroic man.
Cuicui was surprised.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?"
She grabbed the place's arm with both hands.
"Don't ask any more questions. I, Ouyang Lin, have already made money by living to such an old age."
After that, he looked at Sima Yi.
"Will you take my granddaughter with you?"
Sima Yi suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Ouyang Cuicui is so petite and cute, so a man would naturally like her.
"Old man, we have to see if Cuicui is willing."
Ouyang Lin quickly asked Ouyang Cuicui, Ouyang Cuicui's tears were already flowing down.
"Grandpa, I believe someone must cure your illness. If you are worried about this beast's men retaliating against us, we can just move now."
"Child, grandpa is not joking with you. This is true. I hope you can follow him."
And the old man has a reason. Sima Yi is also a weak scholar and he doesn't know martial arts at all.
But he can be so brave at critical moments, so there is absolutely no harm in letting his granddaughter follow him.
Seeing that her grandfather had made up his mind, Ouyang Cuicui had no choice but to agree.
However, she immediately leaned towards Sima Yifu.
"In this case, the little girl will always be sir's maid from now on. I don't know what to call him?"
Sima Yi was stunned.
I didn't expect this girl to think so.
So, he also told his real name.
However, the grandfather and grandson had no idea what the symbol Sima Yi represented.
Next, Ouyang Lin began to pack his things.
Ouyang Cuicui is still a little reluctant to let go.
"Grandpa, okay. Grandpa is planning to run away from home in a few days. He doesn't want you to see him dead. Now I can tell you the truth. Grandpa is relieved."
The three eventually parted ways.
Sima Yi took Ouyang Cuicui and left.
Many of the gifts he bought are now carried by Cuicui.
Cuicui asked him, what did he do in Hanzhong and where did he live?
Sima Yi then told Ouyang Cuicui his true identity.
"Today, there is great chaos, and many people want to make contributions, but Cao Gong is a hero, so I am willing to follow him."
In fact, Ouyang Cuicui wants to live an ordinary life.
But he knew that this wish seemed to be unsuccessful.
On the other side, in Youzhou.
Many officials here were so frightened that they ran away quickly.
Because they know that there is no sand in Xi Yu's eyes.
They may be blamed for corruption and bribery.
Of course Xi Yu also understood this truth and did not let his men pursue him again.
But many people have heard the news, and they are also very happy.
As long as the actor is here, it seems that they can live a good life from now on.
And that night, Xi Yu once again asked Guan Yu if he had already thought about it.
Guan Yu really thought about it for a long time.
He finally held his fist and said: "Since the actor trusts me so much, then Guan will agree to it."
Xiyu was very happy.
The next day, I told the generals about this matter.
As expected, Zhou Yu and others were extremely opposed.
They think Guan Yu's heart is not with Xi Yu yet.
"You don't have to worry about this issue. Don't trust the people you employ, and don't trust the people you doubt. If he really feels sorry for me, I will naturally not keep him."
Many people saw his persistence and stopped saying anything.
I was having a meeting when suddenly a flying pigeon came over.
It turned out to be Lu Su's flying pigeon message.
It is said that Sun Ce once sent a letter to Lu Su, hoping that he could make great achievements.
Now that I am idle, I will soon become a useless person.
But at the same time, he said that he just wanted to do something and had absolutely no ambitions.
I hope Xiyu can rest assured.
Xiyu burst out laughing after reading the letter.
"That's right. It's a good idea to have this idea."
He immediately revised a letter and sent it directly to Sun Ce, asking him to wait and then leave it to him if there was something suitable to do.
A few days later, Sun Ce received the letter and finally felt more at ease.
In recent times, he and Sun Quan have been together often.
The relationship between the two people is becoming more and more harmonious.
When Wu Guotai learned about this situation, he was naturally very happy.
At first, Sun Shangxiang became Xi Yu's wife, and Wu Guotai was forced to do so.
After all, there are still obstacles in my heart that I can't overcome.
But with the passage of time, she is now gradually able to accept it.
When Cao Pi received the news from Xiahou Dun, it was already a few days later.
It is said that he was so angry that he became seriously ill and blamed Xi Zhicai. He should have stopped Xiahou Dun when he went there.
Early that morning, Sima Yi formally went to see Zhang Lu with gifts.
Soon, he was stopped by soldiers.
Sima Yi was also very polite, saying that he represented Cao Pi and hoped to meet Zhang Lu.
Moreover, Duke Cao was very concerned about Zhang Lu and said a lot of high-sounding words.
The soldier immediately told Zhang Lu the news.
Zhang Lu began to think deeply, why did Cao Pi send people to find him?
Is it possible that he wants to send troops to assist him?
But it seems like it shouldn't be possible.
Now in troubled times, he just hopes to occupy Sichuan, Shu and Hanzhong.
As long as you can live your own peaceful life.
It would be impossible without ambition, but he knew that it would not be the time to become ambitious.
He must see the right moment.
And once you get in touch with Cao Pi, won't you be able to protect yourself wisely?
"Who did Cao Pi send?"
"The man calls himself Sima Yi, and he has a girl with him, who seems to be his servant."
"Sima Yi, this name seems familiar."
Zhang Lu said while stroking his beard.
But no matter what, if you are a guest from afar, it is better to meet him.
Just meeting someone doesn't necessarily mean you agree to someone else's request.
Sima Yi and Ouyang Cuicui finally met Zhang Lu.
After delivering the gift, Sima Yi still spoke some high-sounding mandarin.
Looking at Ouyang Cuicui's trembling look, he asked, "What's going on with this girl?"
"She is a girl I met on the road. Her background is very poor, so I took her as a servant. She has never seen the world, so I hope you won't be offended, General Zhang."
Ouyang Cuicui had indeed never seen such a scene, so she quickly apologized.
"It's okay, he's just a country bumpkin."
When Zhang Lu was about to speak, a soldier suddenly came and spoke a few words into his ear.
"What? There is such a thing?"
Zhang Lu was so angry that he immediately stood up and walked out without even saying hello to Sima Yi.
Sima Yi felt very angry and rude.
Even if something happens, you should at least say something before leaving.
Is he rude or does he look down on himself?
But how can a person not bow his head when he is under the eaves?
Now he is asking for help from others.
Zhang Lu went there for a long time but never came.
Time passed by little by little.
Both Sima Yi and Ouyang Cuicui felt a little hungry, and no one came to entertain them.
Sima Yi comforted him: "Okay, Cuicui, I believe she will be here soon."
Sure enough, Zhang Lu came back after a while, with a very angry expression on his face.
Sima Yi even wondered whether Zhang Lu was acting to hide himself from him?
Or is it a hint to find a reason to leave quickly?
But today I just want to stay here shamelessly.
If Cao Pi couldn't accomplish what he wanted, how could he leave so casually?
Once I leave today, it may not be so easy to see Zhang Lu again.
"I wonder what on earth makes General Zhang so angry?"
He thought to himself, could there be some kind of situation in the military? Could someone be planning a sneak attack on Hanzhong?
"Don't mention it. It was my brother-in-law who was killed. I was worried that my wife would quarrel with me, but my brother-in-law did deserve to die. He did all kinds of evil all day long."
Zhang Lu yawned and said, "Okay, don't talk about these troublesome things. Since Mr. Sima has come to Hanzhong, why don't you let me accompany you for a walk and see the spring scenery of Hanzhong."
When Sima Yi still wanted to speak, Zhang Lu waved his hand. "It's rare for us to meet. Let's just talk about the romance and nothing else."
He immediately blocked Sima Yi's mouth.
But Sima Yi knew that a little impatience would ruin a big plan.
Sooner or later he will have a chance to speak.
Zhang Lu took the two of them for a walk around here.
Although Hanzhong is located in a remote location, the people here are simple and the scenery is very beautiful.
"What do you think, Mr. Sima?"
Sima Yi had no choice but to fight too.
"Yes, it's really very enviable."
