The situation in Shangyong County could not be spread, not only because Wei Yan moved too fast, but also because the location of Shangyong County was very special.
Wei Yan's troops were so fast that he captured the three Shangyong counties before the Shangyong war was completely over.
The terrain of Shangyong is steep and surrounded by mountains and rivers, and there are only three ways to get in and out.
One leads to Hanzhong, the other leads to Yidu, and the last one leads to Nanyang.
At this time, Wei Yan and Liu Chan came from Hanzhong and one from Yidu, which originally made it impossible for Shangyong and Cao Pi to communicate, and Cao Pi was now fighting Sun Quan in Xiaoling.
Therefore, it would take more than half a month for Shangyong's battle report to fall into Cao Pi's hands.
At this time, the first battle report "Shen Yi reports that Meng Da wants to rebel" is still on the way, not to mention the news of Shangyong's fall.
"It is indeed not easy to hide the fall of Shangyong from Nanyang, unless His Highness does not join Wei Yan, enters Nanyang directly from Shangyong, and attacks Wancheng directly.
When Wancheng was massacred, neither Tian Yu nor Yang Jun were able to bring Wancheng back to life, nor did they move the people in. In addition, the newly appointed Nanyang County Governor Guo Yong was regarded as a relative.
Ability... I have never heard of it. If His Highness had not been so unlucky, there would have been no accident. "
In the bamboo forest outside Jinzhu City, Zheng Du was used to seeing Zhuge Kongming who came to visit every day. While taking the battle report, he also looked at the map in front of him to analyze the current war.
But when it came to the key point, Zheng Du couldn't help but glance at Zhuge Kongming.
“Your strategy is excellent, and the first problem seems to have been solved.
But this second one... do you really think that His Highness can hold Nanyang County after taking it?
Although the rear of Cao Pi is empty, but... this is Nanyang County, the place connecting Wanluo. Once His Highness appears in Wancheng, Luoyang's soldiers and horses will immediately pass by.
And Cao Pi will also return to the army..."
When Zheng Du said this, there was a hint of contemplation on his face, and at the same time, the look he looked at Zhuge Kongming became more and more strange.
"How do you plan to break the situation?"
"The break... is still with Cao Pi!"
"Cao Pi..." Zheng Du also sneered silently after hearing this sentence, "He was taken care of by you Zhuge Kongming, that's really his good luck!"
The news of Shangyong has not spread yet, and Nanyang County knows nothing about it. The new Nanyang County Governor is still thinking about how to deal with the powerful Nanyang people around him and the people who are afraid of the Cao family.
He didn't even know that he was in trouble.
However, the Cao family was not very quiet at this time either.
Especially...in that city of Luoyang.
"Weishuo, since you have finished this matter, why are you still lingering in this mansion?
Is it possible that there is something else in this small mansion that you can't forget? "
In Luoyang City, Cao Wei's Tingwei Zhong Yao was looking helplessly at Liu Yan in front of him in his noble residence.
As an old minister of Cao Wei, he is also a famous person in the world.
Zhong Yao, who is over seventy years old, has really seen through many things. Even though he was a Tingwei in these years, he has not done anything extraordinary or outstanding.
Even when Liu Yan came to ask for his help in buying Luo Tong's biological mother, he just smiled and then invited the person to be handed over to Liu Yan.
By the way, he expressed his generosity very calmly.
“I am now in my seventies, and I don’t know when the late emperor will call me, so I can continue to accompany the late emperor under the Nine Springs.
This woman... Although she was very beautiful back then, what really made Na Hua Xin value her was her gentle personality.
In fact, Hua Xin has lost the same impulse toward her over the years. If nothing unexpected happens in the future, he will be martyred.
Since you brought it up today.
Of course, Hua Xin will not deny me this face.
As for the woman...it's not a matter of redemption or not, it's just to let him return home.
Take it away quickly! "
Liu Yan and Zhong Yao are both famous people, and they were both considered famous people in Yuzhou back then. They are not very familiar with them, but they have some understanding of them.
In addition, this time Liu Yan first went to Nanyang to visit Cao Pi before coming here to find him, but Zhong Yao had no intention of shirk.
What is a concubine?
Just be a good person.
As for what he wanted this woman to do... Zhong Yao didn't bother to ask, but she was just such a woman who had been a concubine for her whole life.
It won't have any big effect.
Zhong Yao is convinced of this.
But what Zhong Yao didn't expect was that Zhong Yao had already asked for his return, packed up all his things and took them away, and the deed of sale was also given to Liu Yan.
But...he Liu Yan won't leave!
I greeted him politely here every day, and then told myself that I was about to say goodbye every day, but I just refused to leave.
Liu Yan was a famous person, and Zhong Yao also wanted to have face. Seeing Liu Yan like this, even if Zhong Yao felt a little bad, he couldn't just let the servant guards drive him away.
In the past half month, Zhong Yao had tried many times to remind him that Liu Yan should go back earlier.
Luoyang is not the place he should stay.
But Liu Yan was unmoved, as if he couldn't hear the hint in Zhong Yao's mouth, and he was extremely polite to Zhong Yao every time.
Zhong Yao had no place to vent his anger.
As time passed, he felt that his short life span might have been shortened by several days!
But if you ignore Liu Yan and just leave him alone...
"Weisuo, I don't mean that you have any objections to Weishuo, but the rice in the house is quite rich.
But...but Wei Shuo, you also know that you are Liu Xuande's confidant.
I followed Duke Cao back then, but now as a Wei official, I have no friendship with you.
You are always in my mansion, which will not be good for your future in the future. "
After more than half a month, Zhong Yao finally couldn't bear it anymore and almost said it directly, wanting Liu Yan to know the rules and leave on his own.
But...Zhong Yao still underestimated Liu Yan's face.
He was sure that Liu Yan must have understood it, but so what if he understood it?
Liu Yan just smiled lightly at Zhong Yao, thanked Zhong Yao for caring about him, and then continued to look at Zhong Yao's collection of books.
I have no intention of leaving at all.
In the end, the servant next to him showed an awkward smile to Zhong Yao, as if he felt a little embarrassed because his master looked like this...
Looking at this scene, Zhong Yao could only walk away in the end!
But what he didn't know was that Liu Yan was in Zhong Yao's study, taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, and asked the servants beside him.
"How is the contact with the person named Shanyang Cao Wei that His Highness spoke of?"
