The first thousand and seventy chapters big account harvest
After Xu Chu led his people to clear the place in advance, Cao Zhi, surrounded by everyone, walked into the Yangwu tent. After entering, Cao Zhi took a quick look inside the tent and couldn't help but be a little surprised: the furnishings of Yuan Shao's tent were luxurious and elegant.
It's even better than Cao Zhi imagined. The gilt kneeling Yong'an palace lantern, the bronze feathered figure, the animal-shaped Boshan furnace, the open-carved four-dragon lacquer screen, the large bronze pot with a forbidden chain, the hollowed-out copper statue with the Taotie pattern...
Everything was packed away spotlessly and neatly, giving the impression that the owner of these utensils had not gone far, but had just gone for a walk and would be back soon.
Cao Zhi and the others looked around at all the objects in the big tent, and unknowingly slowed down because of the surprise and amazement.
Cao Zhi slowly stopped behind a gold, silver and bronze dragon and phoenix table. On the table was a guqin with tightly stretched strings.
Cao Zhi fiddled with the strings casually, and the strings made a dull sound, as if Cao Zhi was sighing why Yuan Shao came to fight with these things!
This sound and sigh awakened everyone who walked into this big tent to take a warning. Everyone could see that Yuan Shao, carrying such attire and valuables, was destined to fail.
When Cao Zhi couldn't believe why Yuan Shao brought these things, he casually sat down on the couch that should have belonged to Yuan Shao. Then he looked at the several twenty-eight blue dragon and white tiger lacquered wooden boxes next to the couch. Cao Zhi was curious and opened them casually.
From the nearest box, the brilliance inside could no longer be concealed and shot out.
The box was filled with all kinds of rare treasures, some of which Cao Zhi had known before. After careful identification, Cao Zhi immediately determined that these treasures were from the Yuan family and were given to them by the emperors of the past dynasties.
things.
Why did Yuan Shao bring everyone from this family here?
After Cao Zhi once again felt that Yuan Shao's behavior was unbelievable, he opened several other boxes one after another, and found some treasures, household registers and several volumes of atlases of the four states of Hebei, Qing, and You.
Cao Zhi, who was a household registration police officer, immediately grabbed a few of the books with his eyes lit up, sat back behind the desk where the piano was playing, and began to read through them.
These things are the most valuable to Cao Zhi. Not only is Cao Zhi very interested in this box because of his professional habits in his previous life, but it also provides Cao Zhi with better preparations for the future all-out attack, occupation, and takeover of the four northern states of Yuan Shao.
References and help.
"Ziyuan, Wenhe, help me sort out these household registers. If necessary, send them back to Xudu immediately and hand them over to Xunyu. If they are not urgent, they should keep them safe... Xiahou, Cao Hong, and Xu Chu took these treasures
Register it and prepare it as a trophy to be transported back to Xudu..."
"Yes! Yes!"
The civil servants and generals whose names were called by Cao Zhi all responded to the call and began to operate.
"I wonder how the battle is going?" Cao Zhi looked at Yuan Shao's camp and turned his attention to the battle that was not over yet.
Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun immediately turned around and left.
Before further reports on the results of the battle were reported, Cao Zhi was ready to wait in Yangwu's tent. Cao Ren was responsible for the command and coordination of the various troops and horses, and Xun You had full authority to handle it outside.
Most of the people around him were soldiers who had returned from Wuchao with him.
In fact, Cao Zhi and these people were very tired, and they had to hold on to the last bit of energy to finish the battle and rush all the way to Yuan Shao's tent in Yangwu.
Sitting on the particularly comfortable soft couch, Cao Zhi habitually put his hands on the table in front of him, looked at each other with Xu Chu and Cao Hong who were laughing and carrying the trophies, and let out a long sigh of relief.
He leaned back on the cushion behind his back, slowly closed his eyes, and began to close his eyes for a short period of time to relax.
A sudden exclamation interrupted Cao Zhi's just-opened eyes. When Cao Zhi opened his eyes again, he saw Jia Xu, who was sorting out household registers and books on the other side, holding a wooden letter in the shape of a double carp and reading it.
What was revealed made the real drug addict next to Cao Zhi scream out in shock.
Jia Xu also knew that he had lost his composure, and when he quickly wanted to close the wooden letter, Cao Zhi had already noticed him.
"Wen He, is that a letter from Yuan Shao? What's written on it? Bring it over and let me take a look..."
"oh……"
Jia Xu hesitated, and Cao Zhi called him. But what surprised everyone was that Jia Xu did not quickly step up to the throne and hand the wooden letter in his hand to Cao Zhi for viewing. Instead, he held the wooden letter tightly.
After sealing the wooden letter, cold sweat began to break out on his forehead, and his expression gradually became painful.
"What's wrong, Mr. Jia? The lord is calling you!" Xu You, who was holding a household registration book, was the first to notice Jia Xu's strangeness, so he approached Jia Xu with "kindness" and reminded Jia Xu that Cao Zhi was calling.
At the same time, his eyes kept looking at the wooden letter in Jia Xu's hand.
But Jia Xu covered the wooden letter so tightly that Xu You could only glance at the words Yuan Benchu personally signed it.
"Why does this note look so familiar!"
When Xu You was surprised, Jia Xu may have noticed Xu You's "good intentions" in approaching him. At this time, Jia Xu could only choose to start walking towards Cao Zhi's main case, and stared at Cao Zhi for a long time with cold sweat.
"My lord, I think... I think you should stop looking at these things..."
"Are you hot?"
Cao Zhi, who had already noticed Jia Xu's strangeness, looked at Jia Xu. He noticed that Jia Xu's hands were trembling at this time, so he asked about Jia Xu's cold sweat without answering.
"lay down!"
After Cao Zhi's tone was obviously full of denial, Jia Xu could only slowly put down the wooden letter.
Cao Zhi glanced at Jia Xu one last time, spread out the wooden letter, moved his eyes to it, read it in a hurry, frowned, and tried to control the surprise in his heart.
Similarly, Cao Zhi's strangeness could not be hidden from the people closest to him in the hall. They all slowed down, relaxed their movements, and began to guess the contents of the wooden letter.
But while everyone was just guessing what content on the wooden letter could move Cao Zhidu, Xu You, who was quick-thinking, turned his attention to other places.
"This wooden letter couldn't have been brought by Jia Xu himself. It must have been found in the pile of documents. So when did Jia Xu go look through the wooden box just now?"
Xu You, who quickly discovered the crux of the problem, immediately moved softly to a Fusan Gothic lacquered wooden box, hurriedly squatted down, pulled out a large number of wooden letters and letters inside, and read through them while squatting.
"Wow!"
This was Xu You's sigh after reading thirteen letters. Of course, Xu You's sigh did not attract much attention in the tent at this time, because they were all attracted by Cao Zhi's increasingly bad expression, which made the atmosphere highly tense.
Xu You, who was not being noticed, was not lost. He continued to read through it with interest. These letters turned out to be handwritten letters to Yuan Shao from officials in the areas controlled by Cao Zhi, and most of them were from Xu Du officials.
The dates are obviously during the period of the confrontation between Cao Zhi and Yuan Shao at Guandu.
"This is highly confidential. Even I, the military advisor who served beside Yuan Shao, have never heard of it. No wonder Cao Zhi and Jia Xu were surprised. It turns out that so many people in the so-called most united Cao family group do not think highly of Cao Zhi and Yuan Shao.
During the Guandu duel, he secretly exchanged letters with Yuan Shao in private, creating a way out for himself..."
"You villain, a traitor, how can I trust him so much..."
Cao Zhi, who had been slapped with a few cases, picked up the wooden letter that Jia Xu handed over to him, lost his temper and roared.
Everyone in the tent immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at Cao Zhi in surprise, who was already excited and had a bad look on his face. They all knew that the problem lay in the wooden letter, but until now, no one except Jia Xu had peeked at it.
content.
But just when Xiahou Mou, Cao Hong and others were about to go up to visit the contents of the wooden letter, Jia Xu took the lead in leaning down, picked up the wooden letter, and quickly put it away.
"Lord, please listen to me..."
When Jia Xu did not speak for the first time, he turned around and knelt down towards Cao Zhi, who had already turned his back on the main seat, in order to stop the coming bloody storm.
"Wow!" A large pile of letters and wooden letters were placed on Cao Zhi's case.
"Lord, please read these letters again!"
When he saw the jealous Xu You, Jia Xu, who was explaining, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat and sank to the bottom of his heart. Although Jia Xu was known for his vicious methods, he absolutely did not want to see Cao Zhigang face the opportunity to unify the Central Plains, because
This possible internal purge and massacre will bring about the collapse of the political system, team, and career.
But just as Jia Xu closed her eyes slightly due to her anxiety, Cao Zhi obeyed Xu You's reminder and wishes, turned around, sat down again, and began to open the tall pile of letters.
The more worried he was about something, the more things would develop. Jia Xu glared at Xu You who was very proud of himself. Then when he looked at Cao Zhi who was on the main case, he saw that Cao Zhi was no longer as focused as before.
Instead of reading the content of the letter, I kept looking at the letter and the final signature in the letter.
Seeing the carp-shaped bottoms and covers, the ropes were roughly removed one by one, and when they were opened, familiar names clearly appeared in Cao Zhi's eyes one after another. Cao Zhi's anger finally reached its peak. "They are all a group of people.
Villains, traitors, these people are simply committing shameful adultery... Wow..."
The furious Cao Zhi said as he pushed down all the letters that Xu You had piled on several cases. The letters and wooden letters were scattered all over the floor. Many of them were even scattered directly at the feet of Jia Xu, Cao Hong and others.
This time, it was too late for Jia Xu to accept it. Cao Hong and others even picked up the letter at their feet unceremoniously, looked through it curiously and hastily read it. Soon they were shocked by the letter and its contents.
"My lord, why don't you write down and compile a list of these? General Mo will take his people back to the capital immediately and capture these people to hold them accountable!"
