Cao Cao didn't have much communication with Li Zhong, but he knew that Li Zhong had a relatively stable temper. Now he rushed straight to his inner courtyard without waiting for notification. He looked so anxious, and there was no doubt that something big had happened.
Hu Sanniang quickly stood up and sat aside.
Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "Brother Li Zhong, please don't panic. Please tell me slowly how the two of them will cause a big disaster."
Li Zhong calmed down and said: "A wealthy businessman came to Laizhou recently and bought treasures from the sea. He spent money like running water. He only wanted to be rare and rare, regardless of the price. Later, the news came out that it was Cai Jing who was begging for his fourth son Cai Ji. The emperor agreed to marry Emperor Kangfu on the spot, so he went around to buy rare treasures as betrothal gifts, and he will marry Emperor Kangfu in half a year."
When he said this, Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat and he secretly cried out.
In order to move Zongze away, Cao Cao made a big fuss in the capital. On the way, Shi Xiu met a girl at an apricot cheese shop and fell in love with her at first sight. Cao Cao sent Shi Qian to follow her and found out that she was the fifth daughter of the emperor, Emperor Kangfu. .
If Shi Xiu had unrequited love, that would be fine, but the woman was obviously also interested in Shi Xiu. She gave her a purse she had embroidered by herself and the amulet she had asked for. This was a sign of mutual love.
Shi Xiu has a beautiful nature, is generous and righteous, and is willing to risk his life to fight for the injustice of passers-by. Now that he is shocked to hear that the woman he loves is marrying someone else, how can he give up?
Cao Cao frowned, but heard Li Zhong say again: "When brother Shi Xiu heard about this, he immediately got angry and said, 'Who dares to snatch Shi's woman?' He was about to pack his bags and go to Bianjing, but he hadn't set off yet. Ten assassins came that night, all with extraordinary skills. The three of me fought hard and killed six of them, while four others escaped!"
Cao Cao was greatly surprised when he heard this and raised his eyebrows: "Assassin? Assassin coming to assassinate Shi Xiu?"
But she heard Li Shishi clapped her hands - she had just arrived with Pan Jinlian and happened to hear Li Zhong talking. At this time, she said: "Husband, have you forgotten that Shi Xiu once met the Emperor Ji in the palace? Shi Xiu must have talked about him in Laizhou The emperor heard that she was going to marry someone else, so she gave it to the emperor. I don’t know whether it was Zhao Ji or Cai Jing who sent the assassin."
Cao Cao nodded repeatedly after hearing this, thinking that this must be the case. If the emperor asked Shi Xiu where his name came from, would Shi Xiu say: I am a strong man in the world?
It is only human nature to choose a good identity. The only good identity he could tell was that he was the Laizhou Military and Horse Supervisor who had just acquired him at that time.
"It's not the emperor." Cao Cao shook his head: "If the emperor did it, why use assassins? It must be Cai Jing. In his opinion, this matter is just a low-level military attache who got lucky and met the princess on the street. As long as If you kill me quietly and report your death as a result of illness, who will be able to hold you accountable?"
Speaking of this, he suddenly became happy: "Di Ji is willing to tell the origin of Shi Xiu, so she must be begging her father to marry Shi Xiu! Hey, Di Ji is such a loving and righteous woman, she deserves my brother's love."
Li Zhong said: "My brother and my third sister-in-law guessed it right. Brother Shi Xiu also had the same idea. He cried and laughed alone all night. Yesterday morning he packed up his clothes and horses and told me that we should survive and defend the foundation of Laizhou." , Don’t miss your brother’s great cause, but as for him, he can’t help his brother and can no longer be by your side, he is going to Bianjing to snatch out the Emperor Ji!”
Pan Jinlian exclaimed after hearing this: "Oh, this man is so, so, so bold. If he goes to the palace alone to rob people, won't he die in vain?"
Li Zhongdao: "My younger brother is also persuading me in this way, but my brother Shi Xiu is so heartbroken that he is willing to die in Bianjing."
Hu Sanniang and Li Shishi are both female-born, heroic and courageous women. After hearing this, they cheered in unison: "What a hard-working man! He is really a good man with love and righteousness!"
Cao Cao had no expression on his face and only frowned slightly: "Let's continue, why did Ou Peng get involved again?"
Li Zhong said: "Brother Shi Xiu said these words at that time. Ou Peng suddenly turned red with anger and said, since you and I are brothers, how can we see you die? That's all, let Li Zhong guard the Mizhou cause, and all my colleagues will go." Bianjing, if you rob the emperor's concubine, Ou will break up with you. If you can't get the emperor's concubine, Ou will collect the body with you. Shi Xiujian couldn't stand him, so they drank a few drinks and went away hand in hand. , I couldn’t help but urged my horse to gallop all day and all night, so I came here to tell my brother.”
When Cao Cao took a look, Li Zhong's eyes were indeed bloodshot and he looked haggard.
He couldn't help but praise: "Brother, your coming here shows your loyalty. His two lives depend entirely on you..."
Halfway through the conversation, a maid reported that Xu Guanzhong, Lu Junyi, and Yan Qing came to the house. Cao Cao was overjoyed and asked Yan Qing to summon all the brothers who had no jobs.
After everyone had told Cao Cao about Shi Xiu's incident, Xu Guanzhong said: "Laizhou is located between Qingzhou and Dengzhou. Li Zhong worked tirelessly to report the news. Shi Xiu and Ou Peng should be behind him. Brother, please send someone." Stop the two of them on the road and start arguing."
Cao Cao nodded and asked everyone: "If you have any other opinions, please tell them."
Yan Qing said: "It's easy to stop him, but this brother is very affectionate. If the Emperor Ji marries someone else, I'm afraid he will be depressed from now on."
Lu Junyi wondered: "It's just a woman, why should she be depressed? I'll naturally forget about it after I have a few more drinks with him."
Hu Sanniang and the three of them rolled their eyes at the same time, and they all secretly said: "My husband, my brother, we should ask them to have less contact with each other in the future."
Shi Qian thought for a while, then suddenly stood up and introduced himself: "Brother, how can Shi Xiu have the ability to snatch someone away? Wouldn't it be easier for me to go to Bianjing and find a way to steal the Emperor Ji?"
After hearing this, Zhou Tong shook the four pheasant feathers on his head and cheered for Shi Qian: "Brother Shi Qian is so proud! My younger brother is also going with you. If any powerful master comes after me, my younger brother will cut off your heir apparent!"
Jiao Ting shook his head and said, "What you're capable of is not real. I'll cut it off."
Shi Wengong laughed loudly, looked at Cao Cao and said: "Since we are called brothers, we should share the joys and sorrows with wealth and wealth. It is fine for my brother Qiangang to be arbitrary in this matter, and I will have brothers who will follow me to the death!"
"Okay!" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and slammed the table: "Shi Xiu refused to tell me that he went to the dead end alone because he was afraid of getting me involved. It's just me, Wu. If I'm afraid of getting involved, why should I?" Are you calling me brother? I think that Di Ji, since she has my brother in her heart, how can I, as the brother, be willing to see her marry someone else and make my brother frustrated and sad?"
He pointed at Su Ding: "Brother Su, you are mature and steady. Please go back to Laizhou with Li Zhong to help him stabilize the army."
This arrangement is because although Li Zhong is a good person, his abilities are limited after all. Without two powerful people, Shi Xiu and Ou Peng, he is afraid that he will not be able to control his subordinates, so he sends a master to help.
"As for the other brothers!" Cao Cao looked at everyone and smiled: "Let's all pack our bags. We will gather at the south gate of Qingzhou in a quarter of an hour."
Everyone clasped their fists together, shouted to take orders, and left in a galloping way.
Cao Cao looked at them, sighed, and looked back at Sanniang apologetically: "I just said I would accompany you to give birth..."
Sanniang stretched out her jade hand, pressed his lips, and said softly: "Do you think I am an ignorant woman? Since so many good men worship you as their brother, there are naturally some things that you cannot control on your own. Anyway, be careful and come back early. .”
Cao Cao nodded, hugged Sanniang, then hugged Jinlian and Shishi one after another: "Don't worry, everyone, this matter must be dealt with with surprise troops, and we will be back in a month at most."
Seeing that he had just returned home for a day and was about to leave again, Shishi and Jin Lian burst into tears and hurriedly packed his packages and clothes.
Hu Sanniang went to the horse gallery to fetch a horse with her belly full - but it was she who rode the "Rouge Tiger" herself.
"There are days when you don't dare to ride it. Let it accompany you to Bianjing. You can go smoothly and come back safely."
Cao Cao looked into the beautiful lady's affectionate eyes, nodded with a smile, tied up the parcel and armor, hung the big tree on Shengsheng's hook, jumped on the horse, and said to the three women: "You should take good care of each other, as husbands!"
Outside the south gate of Qingzhou, the heroes were already ready to go, and they all looked at Cao Cao with a smile.
Cao Cao waved his hand: "First go to the road that must be passed and stop these two brainless idiots, and then we will argue."
Youfenjiao: Why are ruthless brothers? Only with righteousness can we call ourselves brothers. The rich and the poor join hands to cross the border, and the world is illuminated by two bright candles.
Dead.
I used to write at night, and my work and rest were very messy. Recently, I took Chinese medicine to regulate myself, went to bed early and got up early, and changed to writing during the day. I was a little uncomfortable for a while, so the frequency of posting was messy, which affected my reading experience. I am very sorry.
I will definitely adjust this within this week, and I will try my best to make two updates at 7:8 and 10 every day, and add updates from time to time, and strive to get into a stable state of three updates.
Thank you for all the recommendation votes, monthly votes and support. The longer I go on this road, the more I feel that readers are really the light of the author.
