"It can't be anything."
Yang Ling smiled, waved her hand, and drank the wine in the glass with great satisfaction.
As soon as the eunuch came to visit, he knew what Cao Pi had planned.
The situation in Jingnan must have deteriorated, and Cao Pi wanted to get Yang Ling out of the mountain.
Sorry, Yang Ling couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Cao Pi's attitude of using people first and not using people later.
"I think the eldest brother did the right thing. Third brother, you should worry less."
Xu Chu chuckled, raised his glass,
"Come on, let's drink!"
…
Let's talk about Cao Ren, Sima Yi and others in Jiangling City. After receiving Cao Pi's order, their scalps immediately went numb.
After the defeat of Jiangxia, Cao's army suffered heavy losses and its morale was extremely low.
It may be difficult to defend Jiangling.
However, Cao Pi ordered them to take the initiative to stabilize the four counties in Jingnan. Isn't this difficult for someone to do?
But this is the emperor's will after all. No matter how difficult it is, Cao Ren and Sima Yi can only bite the bullet and send troops from Jiangling to support the four counties in Jingnan!
As a result, as soon as Cao's army set off from Jiangling, the Sun and Liu coalition forces over there received the news.
They first mobilized warships and made a gesture of attacking Jiangling.
After Cao Ren received the news, he immediately panicked and quickly changed direction and prepared to retreat to Jiangling.
Zhou Yu used the waterway again, detoured to the rear, and set up an ambush halfway.
As a result, Cao Ren was killed and his army was defeated, and he fled back to Jiangling City in embarrassment.
At this point, Cao Jun was no longer able to intervene in Jingnan.
The coalition forces of Sun and Liu sent troops brazenly and captured the four counties of Jingnan in one fell swoop.
Gong Zhi, the new governor of Wuling County, died in battle. Zhao Fan, the governor of Guiyang County, saw that the situation was not good and fled in advance. Only then was he lucky enough to escape with his life.
After this battle, the world was shocked!
Zhang Lu, who was located in Hanzhong County, took the opportunity to contact the Qiang Di and other Hu people in Liangzhou with the intention of starting an uprising.
Fortunately, Ma Teng had been wary of this and sent troops to suppress it in time, so no trouble was caused.
At the same time, news came from Xian Yufu, the governor of Youzhou, that Gongsun Kang, the governor of Liaodong, was ready to take action after hearing that Cao Wei was defeated in Jingzhou.
He is secretly gathering troops and horses, and seems to intend to invade Youzhou!
In addition, the Xianbei people also took the opportunity to go south many times and harass Bingzhou on the border of Cao Wei!
…
Looking at the official documents sent from Liangzhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou and other places, Cao Pi felt a headache!
If he had known that the situation would deteriorate like this, he would not have urged Sima Yi to send troops!
Seeing Cao Pi's irritable look, Chen Qun on the side hesitated for a moment and said cautiously,
"Your Majesty, if it doesn't work out, let's ask the general to come out. He is the only one who can calm the situation right now."
Cao Pi looked uncertain.
Of course he knew that Chen Qun's suggestion was the most appropriate.
But the problem was that he really couldn't lose face and went to see Yang Ling!
Chen Qun had known Cao Pi for a long time, and when he saw that he remained silent, he understood what he was thinking.
"The late emperor was so wise and powerful, but he was also able to treat the virtuous and corporal. He just recruited the princes, generals and others under his command."
"Why can't Your Majesty follow the example of the late Emperor?"
After listening to Chen Qun's words, Cao Pi took a long breath, nodded and said,
"Zhang Wen is right! If you come, prepare a generous gift immediately. I want to visit the general in person!"
…
The General's Mansion.
"Two!"
"Do you want it? If you don't want Wang Zha, I only have one card left!"
Yang Ling held the cards and smiled proudly.
Seeing him reveal the last mistress, Dian Wei and Xu Chu threw the cards in their hands on the table angrily.
"No more fun, it's boring."
"Brother is here to defraud us of our salaries again."
Yang Ling said seriously,
"How can a scholar's affairs be considered a lie? This is called a willingness to gamble and admit defeat!"
Zhao Yun couldn't help but shook his head and said with a smile,
"The more you fight, the more courageous you become, and the more courageous you are, the more you lose. Aren't you just money-spreading boys?"
While the brothers were laughing, Zhou Cang suddenly ran over in a hurry.
"General Qi, your Majesty has brought someone here, saying he wants to visit you!"
Yang Ling was startled, quickly dropped the cards in his hand, and walked towards the room.
Although Cao Pi should be well aware of the fact that he was pretending to be ill.
But in order for both of them not to be embarrassed, Yang Ling still acted.
As soon as Yang Ling lay down here, he heard the voices of Dian and Wei coming from outside.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
"Excuse me, I wonder where the general is?"
Cao Pi's voice also sounded.
"Reporting to your Majesty, the general has contracted the cold and is resting in bed in his room."
Dian Wei replied.
"Please take me in."
As soon as Cao Pi finished speaking, he heard the door creak and be pushed open from the outside.
He followed Cao Pi into the room, followed by Chen Qun, Han Hao and others.
"Why is Your Majesty here..."
Yang Ling pretended to be weak and managed to straighten up.
He lay in front of the bed and applied the white powder Cao Qing used for makeup on his face.
Therefore, he looks pale, and coupled with his realistic acting skills, he really looks like he is seriously ill!
"My brother-in-law has made great contributions to Cao Wei. I heard that my brother-in-law was sick, so I came here to visit him!"
"Come here, bring up all the tiger whip, deer antlers and other great tonic things I prepared for my brother-in-law."
Cao Pi hurriedly stepped forward and held Yang Ling's hand, with a look of concern on his face.
The eunuch behind him also quickly put the prepared gifts aside.
Seeing Yang Ling's weak appearance, Cao Pi couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Yang Ling was really sick?
At this moment, his eyes inadvertently fell on the client beside him.
I saw a wine jug with wine on it, and there was still unfinished wine in the wine cup.
The smile on Cao Pi's face suddenly froze.
Noticing Cao Pi's gaze, Dian Wei's heart tightened and he quickly kicked Zhao Yun gently.
Zhao Yun reacted first, walked forward without leaving a trace, blocked the wine on the table behind him, and said in a sad tone,
"Your Majesty doesn't know something. The general is always worried about state affairs and works too hard, which is why he gets sick."
Damn your motherfucker!
If he was really seriously ill, could he still drink wine?
Cao Pi cursed secretly in his heart, but on the surface he looked moved.
"It is my blessing and the great Wei's blessing that my brother-in-law has such thoughts!"
"Your Majesty is serious, this is my duty!"
Yang Ling said with a moved expression.
The two people, who had evil intentions, also worked hard to cooperate with each other's performance.
It can be said that life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills!
"Hey, although my brother-in-law is seriously ill in bed, I should be considerate."
Cao Pi let out a long sigh,
"It's just that the situation in Jingzhou has taken a turn for the worse. Only my brother-in-law can stabilize the situation!"
"Your Majesty has given orders, and I should obey them. But Your Majesty has also seen that my body is really..."
Before Yang Ling could finish speaking, he started coughing violently again, as if he might die at any time!
When Cao Pi saw this, he was so angry that he felt itchy.
My posture was so low, but this guy still refused to let go!
