"Afu, you are still so kind-hearted."

Dian Wei couldn't help but let out a sigh.

He knew very well what Zhou Bujie had done in the past two years.

He repeatedly slandered Cao Peng and Hu Zhao, and was extremely arrogant... However, during this period of time, this boy was quite honest and did not cause any problems. But in Dian Wei's eyes, Zhou Buyi was definitely not a good person. He even heard that

He was poisoned and was somewhat gloating about his misfortune.

"Light the brazier and let someone boil water in the kitchen.

Mr. Hua and the others will come over soon, maybe it will be useful."

Cao Peng didn't answer Dian Wei. He glanced around the room and landed on a gray package next to the wooden pillows of the bed. He walked up and opened the package. Dian Wei came over with a torch to illuminate him. Inside the package were some

Clothes, a few volumes of books, a dry food bag, and a money bag. The money bag contained about three copper coins, not a lot.

Picking up the scroll, Cao Peng was startled.

"Eight Hundred Character Classic", "Three Character Classic", and a volume of rubbings of "Thirty-Six Strategies".

Cao Peng's "Thirty-Six Strategies" has just been completed. It has not been printed into a book, and it has not been widely circulated in the market. Except for a few people, no one even knows that he has written such a military book. Among these few people, except Cao Peng,

In addition to Peng Jia, Pang De, Pang Tong, Xia Houlan, Gan Ning and other tribes, there are also Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Chen Qun and Xun Yu. Zhou Buyi actually has "Thirty-Six Strategies" which he just completed less than three months ago?

But after thinking about it, it doesn't seem strange. Cao Chong must have this book. Zhou Buyi and Cao Chong have such a good relationship, it is normal to have a rubbing copy. Just look at Zhou Buyi's posture... Cao Peng frowned

, couldn't help but frown.

"What's wrong?"

"This child is afraid that he will leave."

"Then how did he..."

"It's probably because he wanted to leave that he encountered this disaster."

At this time, Tongtuo Alley was completely boiling.

General Wei Xiahou Dun led his troops and horses to attack the entire Xudu, and many people gathered in Tongtuo Lane.

The man who led the troops was none other than Xiahou Shang, the Sima of the City Gate Division, who was also Xiahou Zhen’s brother and Cao Peng’s brother-in-law.

He hurriedly ran in, saw Cao Peng and Dian Wei, and quickly raised his hands and said: "Dian Zhonglang, I have been ordered by General Wei to investigate."

Cao Peng turned around and said, "Mr. Hua, are they here?"

Before he finished speaking, someone outside the door said: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, I'm here."

Hua Tuo walked in, took a breath, and raised his hand to Cao Peng, "Sir, I'm here... I wonder what your orders are?"

"This kid is poisoned!"

Cao Peng pointed at Zhou Buyi and then stepped aside.

Hua Tuo quickly stepped forward, leaned over his bed, and checked Zhou Buyi.

"Viola?"

"ah?"

"A poisonous weed, very poisonous.

There will be a very unique sweet smell in the mouth and nose of the poisoned person... However, this kind of grass is easy to identify, so it is often mixed with meat. However, in this way, the toxicity of cordyceps is weak, and the relative toxicity is

It will weaken... Well, the toxicity hasn't penetrated into the heart yet, and it can still be saved. But after being revived, I'm afraid there will be sequelae. The specific situation varies from person to person, and I can't say for sure."

"Please sir, please use your holy hands to save him."

"That's nature, that's nature."

Hua Tuo didn't hesitate and immediately started to rescue.

Cao Peng took Dian Wei and Xia Houshang out of the side room, leaving only Hua Tuo and his two disciples busy in the room. After a while, Zhang Ji also came. I heard that Hua Tuo was doing something inside.

He was not polite to save him, and took his apprentice Ma Zhen to join him.

"The two holy hands are working together to save us. If it still fails, I'm afraid there is nothing we can do."

Cao Peng took a deep breath and stepped down the porch.

"Boren."

"Um?"

"Can you please send someone to Sikong Mansion to report to my lord that Zhou Buyi had nothing to do with this matter, but now he has been poisoned and is being rescued. We don't know the result yet."

"It has nothing to do with him?"

Cao Peng smiled bitterly and carried Zhou Buyi's package.

"This kid looks like he's ready to go home, why bother doing such a thing?"

"maybe……"

Xia Houshang wanted to say that he might have fled out of fear of crime. But if he absconded out of fear of crime, he wouldn't have poisoned himself to death, right? He thought for a while, nodded in agreement, and immediately ordered people to return.

"Afu, shall I go back first?"

"Well, the current situation in Sikong Mansion is unclear. There is one dead soldier, but there is no guarantee that there will not be a second dead soldier.

My uncle should still go back to protect Sikong, and at the same time remind Sikong to be careful about the safety of Lu's Han envoys. Some people will not feel at ease unless something happens."

Cao Peng thought for a while, then suddenly turned around and walked out.

"Afu, where are you going?"

Cao Peng did not answer, but turned around and said to Xiahou Shang: "Bo Ren, you don't need to leave too many troops here. I'll go out for a while and I'll be back later."

After saying that, he rushed out the door.

Cao Peng asked a soldier for a horse. Cao Peng turned over and sat on the horse, hit the horse and drove away.

When Xiahou Shang ran out, Cao Peng had already left. He quickly asked a group of soldiers to follow him, and then stood in the courtyard, a little at a loss.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Cao Peng rushed out of Tongtuo Lane and headed straight for Yuxiu Street.

In a short time, he arrived at the door of a big house on Yuxiu Street. He jumped off his horse, and Cao Peng ran up the doorstep, grabbed the door knocker, and slapped it continuously. The small door on the main door opened.

There was a crack, and a head poked out from inside.

"Who!"

Without further ado, Cao Peng raised his hand to hold the small door and exerted force suddenly.

The small door was suddenly pushed open, and the door inside was knocked out by a huge force. He fell to the ground and fell unconscious.

Cao Peng stepped forward and walked into the gate.

The servants in this mansion also heard the noise coming from the door, and they all poked their heads out to check.

"There's an assassin!"

A servant pulled his neck and shouted.

But before he could finish shouting, Cao Peng raised his hand and turned his wrist, and a steel crossbow flew out, hitting the door frame next to him.
