Chapter 573 The bright moon He Jiaojiao, according to my bedclothes
Cao Ang finally ended his protracted trip to western Liaoning.
Since the Battle of Bailang Mountain, Wuhuan's main force has been destroyed, and next is Cao Ang, Zhang Liao and others launching a new round of attacks on the remnants!
This time lasted for a long time and took it for more than a year...
Today, Cao Ang returned in triumph.
At the gate of the city, countless officials lined up to greet him, watching like a blockage. Cao Anggao sat on the horse. He tried hard to find his master Lu Yu and his father Cao Cao among the officials, but they were not here.
At this time... several luxurious oil-walled cars behind Cao Ang slowly opened the curtains, revealing the beautiful face of the beauties in it. They watched the whole of Luoyang with strange timidity.
I even imagined... life here in the future?
In fact, they will most likely give it to meritorious ministers as concubines! The rules of the Hu Han Dynasty have always been written by the victors throughout hundreds of years of struggle.
The success of the king and the defeat of the enemy has been like this since ancient times!
Cao Ang turned over and dismounted to salute Xun Yu.
Xun Yu returned the gift and immediately said softly: "Young Master is coming back just in time. The King of Wei summoned brothers and descendants in the clan in the palace and was discussing a major event. Young Master Ang rushed there immediately, it should be still time."
As soon as this statement was made, Cao Ang did not dare to be negligent and hurried to the Wei Palace.
…
…
The autumn cicadas chirped sadly, and a leaf fell to the ground and was bleak.
Lu Yu knelt in the study, closing his eyes, as if he was meditating. From time to time, he pointed at the water droplets and drawing something on the table with his fingers.
That is a line formed by three points.
Like a map...
Lu Yu sighed: "Three points and one line, this trip is not easy!"
Princess Wannian was also in the study. She wanted to grind Lu Yu, but... the grinding was so lonely that her husband didn't even start writing, but just painted with water drops.
"This is?"
Liu Xue asked, blocking the three points and one line on the table.
"These three points are Wancheng, Xinye, and Xiangyang!" Lu Yu opened his mouth and said, "To get from Wancheng to Xiangyang, even if you use flying, you need to pass Xinye!"
"Would you want to fly over?" Liu Xue didn't know the hot air balloon, but Lu Yu's tone was not right.
"Oh!" Lu Yu sighed. "I didn't expect that why he... was so brave?"
"I can't understand what my husband said." Liu Xue blinked her big eyes... She couldn't understand what my husband was feeling sad about.
Lu Yu slapped his mouth, thinking in his mind.
Old Cao, Old Cao...
I really underestimated you in the past, thinking that you would rather let the world down, and it turns out... you are also absolutely amazing to women!
In addition, Lu Yu knocked on the forehead. "Do I deserve your trust?"
He asked to himself.
It seems that because Cao Cao was going to take a hot air balloon to Xiangyang City this time, Lu Yu felt that Cao Cao's trust in him was so strange that he was a bit perverted!
This is simply contrary to common sense!
…
…
The Palace of Wei is holding a banquet, and the brothers and sons of Qiao Pei clans, including Cao Cao, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Cao Zhang.
When Cao Ang arrived, it was time to drink and chat.
Cao Cao pulled Cao Ang with one hand, led him to his side, and raised his glass and said, "For more than a year, Ziyou has led his troops to clear the western Liaoning. Now the western Liaoning has also been incorporated into the territory of our Great Wei! Although this is the case,
It’s a joy, but the bigger joy is not here.”
Xiahou Dun said: "Zi You Ding Wuhuan in the north, my brother Yu, also used Wu Shisan to control Xianbei, the Southern Xiongnu and other places. From then on, the people on the border will not rebel. Brother, what else is there to be happy?
this!"
However, Cao Hong's eyes turned and he stood up and said, "Is it because the eldest brother is going to make a prince? Now that we are all in the Great Wei Kingdom, the prince should make a prince!"
"Hahaha…"
Hearing this, Cao Cao laughed out loud. "Zi Lian was right. I really intended to establish a prince to calm my heart as the monarch and ministers of the Great Wei Dynasty! But I wanted to wait for the three "Bronze Que Platform, Ice Well Platform, and Golden Tiger Platform"
After the construction of the platform is completed, the candidate for this prince will be announced on the Tongque Platform! Zihuan? How long will it take to complete these three platforms?"
"The two ice wells and Golden Tiger have been built, and the bronze bird platform can also be erected within half a year."
Because it is related to the position of the prince, Cao Pi seems extremely active.
Indeed... he also has the chance!
"Half a year?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Cao shook his head. "I was afraid of something unexpected in the past six months, so I specially issued an edict to establish the crown prince, which was hung under the plaque of the palace of the King of Wei."
"If there is any accident among Gu, then... you are all my tribe members. You should unveil it and attach it to him according to the candidates. What a great man!"
Blind these words...
Xiahou Yuan heard a different feeling. He was one of the few tribesmen who knew Lu Yu’s true identity.
If you think of it again.
Recently...the big brother and his son-in-law have a plan, so...this edict seems meaningful.
"Come on, continue to drink!" Cao Cao raised his cup again and invited everyone to drink together.
Everyone also raised their cups, but their eyes looked at the plaque of the Wei Palace... In the edict hidden there, who was the so-called prince?
Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang also had thoughts.
Especially Cao Pi, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a little bit of sternness appeared in his eyes. If it were Brother Chong... Then...
When the wine ended, the people left, and Xiahou Yuan accompanied Cao Cao to leave the Wei Palace.
While walking, he whispered: "Brother, I'm leaving this imperial edict for the prince, but are you worried about the hot air balloon?"
"No!" Cao Cao waved his hand. "I believe in Yu'er!"
Just five words, meaningful!
Indeed, Cao Cao believed in Lu Yu, but... in case of prevention, Cao Cao still kept a hand to ensure that Yu'er could become the prince of the Great Wei! He could support the heavens of the Great Wei, lead the Great Wei, and lead these good brothers to unify the mountains and rivers.
!
Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were going to send Cao Cao.
But Cao Cao signaled that Xiahou Yuan would only accompany him...
The two young men stood at the door and didn't understand. They looked at the bright moon above their heads, feeling sad and melancholy.
"Second brother..." Cao Zhi opened his mouth: "Do you want to be the prince?"
this…
Cao Pi remained silent, neither saying he wanted nor saying he didn't want him!
Cao Zhi shook his head. "If the prince chosen by the father is Chong's brother, will the second brother compete with him? Wouldn't he be in the brotherhood?"
When Cao Pi blurted out these words, he looked at Cao Zhi with his eyes, looking at him with a hazy and intoxicated look.
"The fourth brother is drunk!"
"What my father likes the most is Brother Chong!" Cao Zhi sang lightly...
"Father likes you too!" Cao Pi patted Cao Zhi on the shoulder, "Anyway, the candidate has been decided. After the construction of the Tongque Tower is completed, you, my brother will know!"
Speaking of this, Cao Pi paused. "No matter you, me, Chong, or Zhang, as long as you are someone your father recognizes, we should all be loyal to you, right?"
call…
Cao Zhi let out a light breath and looked up at the sky again. He seemed to have an ominous premonition in his heart.
"How bright the moon is shining on my bed, I am wandering alone when I go out of the house, so who should I tell you about my sorrow?"
For a moment, Cao Zhi sighed to the corner.
"Second brother sent you back!" Cao Pi helped Cao Zhi up.
Cao Zhi was still humming. "Who should I tell you when I go out and wander, and I will tell you about 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 said, Cao Pi was startled and hurriedly covered Cao Zhi's mouth.
"Who did you hear? Second brother has never bought these!"
"I can't say it, I can't say it..." Cao Zhi just waved his hand...
…
…
Nanyang, Wancheng!
Since Zhang Xiu surrendered to Cao Cao in the past, Wancheng has become the main military county connecting Jingzhou to Nanyang.
In fact, Runan, further down, is closer to Xinye City, but because of the many mountains, Zhuge Jun and Liu Ye still chose this place.
Nowadays, a plain area on the outskirts of the city is heavily guarded...
No one knows what is being done here.
No one will see the flying ball floating into the clouds in the sky.
Cao Cao was going to ride a hot air balloon, this was not a joke, for this... Liu Ye and Zhuge were both busy for half a month, flying from Wancheng to Xiangyang City, and then flying back... It can be said that they had already flown by no less than ten.
Second-rate!
The entire airspace is very familiar!
At this moment... more than 300 outstanding warriors selected from Long Xiao Camp and the workshop were already ready to go. Of course... only 20 or 30 of them had the experience of flying back and forth between Xiangyang!
Every morning, they would fly one after another, lift the hot air balloons into the clouds, and then try to go south, pass Xinye City, pass Jingshui, and finally land 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 richest flight experience!
He trained every selected flying ball soldier himself, and even... according to Lu Yu's proposal, he had to fly safely for more than thirty hours before he could stand alone!
This day...
A low-key carriage was parked here.
Cao Cao and Lu Yu slowly walked out of the carriage.
Liu Ye immediately presented the map, which was a map produced by looking down at the earth from the air. He took the initiative to say, "King of Wei, Baimahou, the southwest wind is suitable for flying these days, and the materials consumed are the least. If you want to fly to Xiangyang,
Missing today... I really missed it!"
Cao Cao looked at the hot air balloons ready to go around.
“Are you ready?”
"Dry food and weapons, you can take off at any time when you are ready!" Liu Ye said truthfully.
Hearing this, Lu Yu interrupted, "The King of Wei must think clearly. Even if it is flying, the place where it flies is hostile Jingzhou! It is better..."
Before Lu Yu could finish his words.
Cao Cao waved his hand immediately. "I believe in Uncle Liu, Long Xiaoying, and the son-in-law Zhuge!"
Speaking of this, Cao Cao pressed his hand on Lu Yu's shoulder. "I believe in you even more!"
After saying a word, Cao Cao waved his arm.
"Set off!"
In an instant, five or six hot air balloons entered a tight state.
The order has been conveyed.
This time, four hot air balloons were operated by Liu Ye, another two of which would escort to Jinghe and wait for the reception there... and Cao Cao's ship was operated by "old driver" Liu Ye himself.
Zhuge Jun was also involved and was one of the operators!
It's afternoon now, no wind...
When you take off and fly to Xiangyang City, Jingzhou, it happens to be dark... This is conducive to hiding and acting!
Cao Cao jumped into the vine basket and waved to Lu Yu. The second time he made a hot air balloon, he was no longer as nervous as the first time.
Under Liu Ye's instructions, the hot air balloons had untied their ropes and began to fly.
Liu Ye gave Cao Cao a special purpose-protecting mirror developed in the workshop, and then the two tacitly covered their legs with the cup... It was quite cold in the sky.
Xu Chu also lives in the same vine 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 through the siege with him on his back!
Losing the ground, pulling the rope, the hot air balloon quickly flew into the air.
While speaking, the hot air balloon flew to the designated airflow layer.
The flying ball starts flying south...
Xu Chu was standing at first, as if this could keep his burly posture, but he couldn't resist his hair being suffocated by the strong wind, and his face was unkempt for a moment, and he looked particularly embarrassed. Xu Chu couldn't sit down and lay down in the quilt.
"Zhongkang, there is no need to be alert in this air."
Cao Cao seemed to be extremely brave, so he handed some dried yellow croaker to Xu Chu. "Eat some, Zhongkang's favorite big yellow croaker to preserve his energy. There is still a tough battle tonight."
Xu Chu touched the big knife behind his waist, as if... his feet were off the ground, and only by placing his hands on the knife could he gain a long-lost sense of security.
Cao Cao asked Liu Ye with great interest.
"Uncle Liu, Gu has only heard of 'Aihuo ordered the chicken to fly' before. What spell did you use to make this ball fly people."
"This..." Liu Ye shook his head. "If it comes to credit, he must be the first in Baimahou, the Prime Minister's Zhuge's son-in-law is second, and I can be considered third at most! Haha..."
Liu Ye maintains his inherent humility.
"King of Wei, sometimes, I will have a lot of doubts! How much is hidden in Baimahou's mind?... He can increase the power of the Thunderbolt car a hundred times, he can make the wooden ox and flowing horse move by himself, he can also create the cut
The iron-like steel halberd, plus this hot air balloon!”
Speaking of this, Liu Ye paused. "To be honest, I, Liu Ye, regard myself as a person of all responsibilities, but... when I met Lu Ziyu, I realized that it was me who could not see Mount Tai!"
Oh…
Hearing this, Cao Cao laughed. He liked to hear others praise his son. No... it is not his son, but the prince of the Great Wei!
"What a blind eye to one leaf, you can't see Mount Tai! For many times, how could I never feel like this?"
Inside the rattan basket...
Cao Cao and Liu Ye were getting better and better. Outside the vine basket, under the southwest wind and under the blessing of power, the hot air balloon quickly flew towards Jingzhou!
…
…
Jingzhou, Xiangyang City…
A garden was almost dusk, 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, cloak, and a hat.
He quickly took off his hat and Zhao Yun walked to Mrs. Cai, and the eyes of the two met.
"I didn't expect that the person who brought me the message was General Zhao Zilong, who was under Liu Enjun?"
Mrs. Cai said...
Zhao Yun's tone was low.
"Since the lady is here, most of them know that my lord and military advisor both know about the wife's behavior."
"What then?" Mrs. Cai asked on his own initiative.
It was like... because of Yang Xiu's reminder, she had expected that Liu Bei would send someone to talk to him in the morning.
only…
I didn't expect it to be so fast.
"If the wife welcomes the eldest son back and encourages the eldest son to become the lord of Jingzhou, then my lord and military advisor will definitely protect Jingzhou and protect the wife, so as not to let the wife suffer any harm!"
"What if? My wife refuses?" Mrs. Cai's tone was cold. "Then... your lord and military advisor are planning to fight the tyrant with me?"
"Envoy Liu and the military advisor didn't want to get to this point!" Zhao Yun's tone was resolute.
"Hmph..." Mrs. Cai said coldly: "No wonder the newspapers sent back to the Northland include many unknown stories of your lord? When I saw it today, Liu Jun was really as lie as the newspaper told! ”
"Please make a decision by Madam." Zhao Yun did not take Mrs. Cai's words, but just said coldly.
"I need some time!" Mrs. Cai seemed to compromise... "Ten days, go back and tell your master. In ten days, I will give him the answer!"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Cai slowly left the garden and boarded the carriage again.
However, Zhao Yun did not move at all, but only witnessed Mrs. Cai walking away.
Just then...
"rustle…"
A slight sound came from behind the flowers and trees, and a man walked out of it.
"Gongyou, you heard it too!"
Zhao Yun murmured.
The Gongyou he mentioned was Sun Gan, a staff member under Liu Bei.
Speaking of which, in the past, he was recommended to Xuzhou by his master Zheng Xuan, and when Liu Bei was in charge of the governor of Xuzhou, Sun Gan was engaged in it.
Of course, the relationship between the two is not simple.
You should know that Zheng Xuan and Lu Zhi are both disciples of the great scholar Ma Rong, Liu Bei is Lu Zhi's disciple, and Sun Gan is Zheng Xuan's disciple. In this way, both of them are the fourth generation of disciples of the Confucianism.
Liu Bei was the main one, and could be called the "Four Generations" and Sun Gan followed, so... he never left him when Liu Bei was defeated again and again!
"Zilong, I'll go back now and report your conversation with Mrs. Cai to Liu Enjun and the military advisor!"
"Have you been working!"
Zhao Yun and Sun Gan bowed to each other.
With the sound of "Get De" horses, Sun Gan had already walked away, while Zhao Yunze narrowed his eyes slightly... he looked at the sky in a daze.
In his opinion...
There is not much time left for Lu Ziyu!
But at this moment, under dusk, in the clouds, Zhao Yun suddenly saw something!
ball…
There is a round sphere falling from top to bottom!
