Originally, Liu Zhang didn't care much about Cao Pi and the four of them. Whether he could catch them or not depended on God's will.
If he was asked to waste manpower and material resources to catch it, he would probably not agree.
However, when he heard the news that Tian Yu was coming with Cao Chong, he couldn't help it.
Putting everything aside, being able to seize without paying any price is better than letting it go.
Even if it’s just to meet him, it would be great.
After all, in history, one was the emperor of the Wei State, the other was a contemporary talented scholar, and the other was also known as a supernatural power.
In other words, there is almost no curiosity about Cao Zhang.
At the Chang'an Martial Arts Tournament, Liu Zhang had fully seen Cao Zhang's style.
Through Cao Zhang's outstanding performance, it can also be reflected that Cao Pi and others are by no means ordinary people.
Anyway, it would be nice to meet him.
"Reporting to the King of Han, Governor Tian brought Cao Chong, Cao Cao's son, to pay homage."
After receiving the messenger's confirmation, Liu Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Cao Chong? How did Tian Yu find Cao Chong?"
The messenger did not dare to hide anything and quickly told the truth.
Before coming, Tian Yu had fully explained everything and had no intention of hiding anything.
With Liu Zhang's methods, there are countless ways to get to the truth of the matter.
Therefore, there is no point in concealing it.
Rather than hiding something, it's better to confess it in advance.
After all, Tian Yu didn't do anything ulterior.
If Liu Zhang was disgusted by hiding this little thing in the end, there would be no place to cry.
"King Han, this is what happened..."
The envoy described everything in detail to Liu Zhang, starting from when Cao Pi and the four went to Jixian County in Youzhou, to leaving Jixian County and going to Youbeiping.
Although there are some concealments, exaggerations, and embellishments, they are all innocuous.
This is something that will not be pursued and will definitely not be investigated.
However, because the envoy was timid and not a capable person, he could not remain calm when facing Liu Zhang, King of Han Dynasty.
When you know something is wrong in your mind, you will inevitably hesitate and hesitate.
Fortunately, Liu Zhang didn't pay too much attention.
Rather than saying that he didn't care, it was better that Liu Zhang focused his attention on Cao Pi and others.
Xun You, on the other hand, frowned frequently and looked strangely from time to time.
Maybe it’s because there’s no reason that’s too egregious and there’s no way to expose it.
In the end, the messenger finished everything without any danger.
"I didn't expect so many things to happen in Youzhou."
Liu Zhang murmured.
Although this story is not thrilling, it is quite rough.
Especially the series of arrangements and the ambitions of Cao Pi and others.
"It's a pity Tian Yu. If he hadn't been careless, all four of Cao Pi and Cao Pi would have become prisoners, right?"
Upon hearing this, the envoy was sweating profusely.
In fact, Tian Yu himself covered up this matter without restriction, almost burying the truth.
He was afraid of angering Liu Zhang and complaining about his incompetence.
Unexpectedly, I was guessed right.
"The King of Han forgives me, but Governor Tian also has his own reasons."
"If an encirclement is launched immediately, it is very likely that Cao Pi and several others will die in the chaos."
"At that time, Governor Tian specially brought 10,000 fine cavalry in order to capture Cao Pi and others alive!"
"I just didn't expect that 10,000 fine cavalry could not catch up with Cao Pi and three others. It's really... ugh!"
The messenger excused Tian Yu, but he was also very helpless.
Who would have thought that ten thousand cavalry could not catch up with three men?
Without personal experience, who can believe it?
"Okay, that's okay."
Contrary to the envoy's expectation, Liu Zhang's tone changed and he became indifferent.
The reason is also very simple, Liu Zhang knows it himself!
It goes without saying that those three horses are coming to help.
The spoils of the Chang'an contest.
No matter how strong the Youzhou war horse is, how can it be compared with the Dawan horse.
It's normal to not be able to run.
But when these words were heard by the messenger, they were no less than a thunderbolt.
Of course, it was a surprise.
"Thank you, King Han, for your kindness!"
"Tian Governor said that even if he digs three feet into the ground, Cao Pi and the others must dig it out and hand it over to the King of Han!"
Liu Zhang smiled and nodded.
"Well, Tian Yu is interested, and I know it."
"However, Tian Yu doesn't need to worry about this matter. Being able to catch Cao Chong is also a great achievement!"
The messenger was even more delighted.
This was the first time that Tian Yu negotiated surrender with Liu Zhang, and Tian Yu did not ask the envoy to do anything.
As for getting the word "great merit" from Liu Zhang, I didn't even think about it.
The messenger has overfulfilled his mission.
After returning, there will also be a reward for him.
"Young man, I would like to thank the King of Han. I would also like to express my gratitude to the King of Han for the sake of the governor of Tian!"
"Okay, you go back first."
Liu Zhang waved his hand and issued an order to expel the guests.
"Tell Tian Yu to come as soon as possible, and tell him that he will be waiting for him in Nanpi."
"As you command!"
The envoy was so excited that he couldn't express it in words. After making a solid guarantee, he bowed deeply and left.
It can be seen from the side that the corners of his eyes are shining with tears.
The word "excited" could no longer express his feelings.
After the messenger left, Xun You slowly stepped forward.
"King Han, I didn't expect this Governor Tian to be quite interesting."
Liu Zhang glanced at Xun You.
"What, Gongda has an opinion?"
Xun You didn't hide it and nodded.
"Avoid the important and focus on the light. Everything that is beneficial to him will be described in emphasis, and everything that is not beneficial to him will be brushed off."
"How can anyone tell the story like this? The veteran expected that the matter between Cao Pi and Tian Yu would not be that simple."
"hehe..."
Liu Zhang chuckled and nodded.
"Yes, I think so too."
"It's just that it doesn't matter. Tian Yu returns and surrenders, there is absolutely no possibility of fraud."
"oh?"
Xun You let out a little surprise.
In fact, he thought so too, but he didn't expect that Liu Zhang was far more confident than him.
Couldn't help but ask.
"How can the King of Han see this?"
