That night.
After the two of them had fun, Cai Yu, with pink face and red lips, panted slightly and leaned into Yang Ling's arms.
"Husband, why don't you let me go back to Xudu with you?"
Cai Yu lit a cigarette and handed it to Yang Ling obediently.
Now the fighting in Jingzhou has gradually subsided and the situation has succumbed to stability.
In addition, Liu Cong was old, so Cai Yu decided to delegate power to him and accompany Yang Ling herself.
But as soon as she put forward her idea, she was rejected by Yang Ling.
There is a saying that if you smoke a cigarette afterwards, you will live like a race to the gods.
Yang Ling puffed away the smoke, touched her smooth back, and said with a smile,
"It's not that I don't think about my husband, it's just that if you stay in Jingzhou, you can prepare for a rainy day."
Cai Yu is a woman with an exquisite mind. When she heard Yang Ling's words, she reacted instantly.
"Husband, are you on guard against... King Wei?"
"That's right. Don't forget that although King Wei is now placing great emphasis on my father, we had quite a grudge before."
Yang Ling's eyes flashed and he said slowly,
"If one day King Wei and I fall out, and you, Yu'er, are in charge of Jingzhou, I won't have no place to live."
"Please don't worry, husband. If King Wei doesn't know what's good, Yu'er will risk her life to vent her anger on her husband!"
Cai Yu's tone was coquettish, but her beautiful eyes were extremely firm.
"It is truly a blessing for a husband to have Yu'er as his wife."
Yang Ling laughed and took her into his arms.
"I just don't understand. King Wei treats my husband so badly, why doesn't my husband..."
Although Cai Yu didn't finish her words, Yang Ling understood her thoughts.
He sighed slightly,
"The late king was as kind as a mountain to my husband. How can I be sorry to him?"
Although Cai Yu is smart, she is still a woman with a somewhat narrow vision.
Now that the Gaoping Ling Incident has not happened, and the old thief Sima has not pointed his finger at Luoshui, people in the world still value kindness very much.
Yang Ling fulfilled his duty of loyalty to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao treated him with courtesy.
Not only did he reward high-ranking officials with generous salaries, but he also married his four daughters.
Such kindness can definitely be considered as a mountain of kindness.
If Yang Ling betrayed without any reason, not only would he be accused of being disloyal and unjust, but even Gan Ning and others who admired his reputation would have a bad feeling towards him.
"My husband is truly a man. No matter what he does, I will support him!"
Cai Yu's beautiful eyes were full of brilliance, and she even took the initiative to give her a sweet kiss!
“Words are better than words of support!”
Yang Ling smiled evilly and turned over to bully him.
…
Early the next morning, Yang Ling bid farewell to Cai Yu and Liu Cong, and embarked on the road to Xudu again.
Jiang Wei and Deng Ai handed over the farming affairs to others and went with Yang Ling.
The journey was extremely smooth. After several days of journey, Yang Ling and his party finally arrived in Xudu.
"My husband is back!"
When they saw Yang Ling returning, they had already received the news, and the Yingying Yanyans waiting in the hall came to greet him one after another.
"Ladies, you have worked hard during my husband's absence."
Yang Ling smiled and greeted them one by one.
"These must be Sisters Fan, Sister Guan, and Sister Gan, right?"
As the mistress, Cao Qing was not jealous, but greeted the three girls openly.
"I've met all of you sisters."
The three women did not dare to neglect and responded quickly.
"We will be a family from now on, so we don't need to be so polite."
Cao Qing held their hands with a smile.
"Yin...Sister Yinping..."
When Zhang Xingcai saw Guan Yinping, his fair face was both excited and a little embarrassed.
She thought they would never meet again, but she didn't expect that they would meet again under such circumstances!
"Sister Xingcai, didn't you just listen to what Sister Cao said? We are all a family and we should serve our husband well together."
Guan Yinping took the initiative to hold Zhang Xingcai's hand.
"That's what my sister said."
Zhang Xingcai nodded.
The barrier between the two women disappeared at this time.
Seeing this situation, Yang Ling smiled.
Now that the two sisters are back together, it seems that the matter of sisterhood can be put on the agenda.
Before Yang Ling could take a breath when she returned to her house, she heard a servant coming to report that Zhu Shuo was waiting in the front hall.
Zhu Shuo was Cao Pi's close friend and his trusted minister.
Since he came to visit, it meant that Cao Pi was looking for something.
Yang Ling didn't waste any time, and after telling Cao Qing to take good care of Guan Yinping's three daughters, he got up and went to the front hall.
"I've seen General Zhengnan!"
Zhu Shuo saluted Yang Ling and said calmly,
"The King of Wei has something important to discuss with the general. I hope the general will pay a visit to the palace."
Yang Ling nodded and did not refuse.
He took Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, and several soldiers, and followed Zhu Shuo to the Palace of the Prince of Wei.
Cao Pi was sitting in the lobby, talking with Sima Yi, Chen Qun and others.
Seeing Yang Ling arriving, he quickly stood up and came forward to greet him, laughing and saying,
"My brother-in-law used his troops like a god in the battles of Jiangling, Chibi, and the campaign against the four counties in Jingnan. He defeated Sun Quan, Liu Bei, and others like they were running away!"
If Yang Ling wasn't familiar with Cao Pi's personality, he would have been fooled by his affectionate attitude.
"King Wei is so polite. All this is thanks to King Wei sitting in the rear."
Yang Ling said perfunctorily.
After everyone sat down again, Yang Ling stopped talking nonsense to Cao Pi and said bluntly,
"The military situation ahead is urgent. I wonder why the King of Wei called his subordinates back?"
Cao Pi, Sima Yi, Chen Qun and others looked at each other and then said,
"Gu Ye knows that the war is urgent, but this matter is crucial. We must ask my brother-in-law to come back and come up with an idea!"
Seeing his pretentious attitude, Yang Ling became more and more certain that this boy wanted to ascend the throne and become emperor.
"Please also ask King Wei to make it clear."
Yang Ling said calmly.
"The thing is like this. Recently, hundreds of officials have been writing to the emperor, saying that I have the appearance of Yao and Shun, the efforts of Boyu, the strategy of Yin Tang, and the wisdom of Zhou Wu."
"I must persuade the emperor to imitate Yao and Shun and pass on the throne to Gu."
"I feel so scared inside, but I don't know how to reject the officials."
"That's why I specially asked my brother-in-law to come back and think of a way for Gu."
Cao Pi acted coyly and authentically.
Still feeling scared?
I see you are very happy, right?
Yang Ling disagreed in her heart, but said calmly on the surface,
"This is easy to say, as long as King Wei arrests the leader and punishes him severely."
"Your Majesty will give an order again. Anyone who dares to talk about abdication will be killed without mercy!"
"In this way, no one will dare to mention this matter!"
Hearing Yang Ling's words, Cao Pi almost lost his temper.
I am being humble, that’s why I say that.
Do you really think that you don’t want to be the emperor?
Is this Yang Ling deliberately pretending to be crazy?
He was a little annoyed, but he couldn't help it, so he could only wink at Sima Yi.
Sima Yi coughed lightly and said softly,
"What King Wei means is that all the officials have good intentions, and even His Majesty intends to abdicate."
