Ailang led the army back to Xuzhou, and asked Jia Xu very depressedly, "It's really strange? Is Cao Cao a ghost? He actually found an ambush! It's so fucking ghost!"

Jia Xu thought, "Maybe the arrangement on the Xiaopei city wall caused the other party's suspicion. We shouldn't be so relaxed, we should be on guard, and then maybe Cao Cao would plunge in."

Ailang asked angrily: "What's the reason? Don't you know that we are prepared if you are ready?"

"Otherwise, Cao Cao, Guo Jia and others are foxes with a slight orifice and ambition. If they judge others by themselves, they will think that we should not believe them completely. Therefore, if the army really goes south, they will definitely bluff on Xiaopei City, thinking that the suspicion of the army will make them dare not act rashly. On the contrary, it means that there is no ambush around the surroundings."

Ailang rolled his eyes and said angrily: "What is your brain? It can really be circumvented!" Jia Xu smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your praise!"

The conspiracy planned by Cao Cao was discovered by Jia Xu and finally returned to the mansion without success. As soon as he entered the door, a very beautiful but angry girl rushed towards him. She didn't politely when she saw Cao Cao and shouted angrily: "Dad, I have heard of it! You have to grasp the old man Lu Bu!" It turned out that this girl was not someone else, but the object of Ai Lang's proposal. Cao Cao's youngest daughter Cao Ying, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others bowed to her, lowering their heads and didn't say anything.

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Although Lu Bu is not much younger than your father, he is extremely heroic. Why is he an old man!"

Cao Ying said angrily: "All are about the same age as Dad, aren't you still an old man? I won't marry!"

Cao Cao pretended to be angry and said, "As you said, Daddy has become an old man?"

Cao Ying said angrily: "That's different!" Then he grabbed his father's hand and said coquettishly: "Dad, can you cancel this marriage?" Seeing that his father didn't say anything, he shook his father's hand vigorously, "Is that okay?"

Seeing her acting cute, Cao Cao felt so cute. His worries disappeared immediately and said with a smile: "Little baby, why is Dad willing to marry you to Lu Bu! Daddy was lying to him!" Cao Ying was overjoyed, "Really?" Cao Cao touched her hair and smiled: "What Daddy said is naturally true!" Cao Ying immediately cheered, hugged his father's arm and said, "I knew, Daddy is the best!" Cao Cao laughed and walked towards the backyard with Cao Ying's slender hands.

By the way, Yuan Shu received the news and said that Cao Cao and Lu Bu fought near Xiaopei. He suddenly became excited and felt that her chance had come. However, soon another news came, saying that Cao Cao and Lu Bu shook hands and made peace, but they did not really fight. There were rumors that Lu Bu proposed marriage to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao had agreed.

The following news not only disappointed Yuan Shu, but also shocked him very much. Now this area is a situation where Yuan Shu and Cao Cao and Lu Bu are strong, and neither of them has absolute advantages. But if Cao Cao and Lu Bu become in-laws, wouldn’t he be alone and die sooner or later?

Just when Yuan Shu didn't know what to do, Lu Bu's envoy came and brought generous gifts.

Yuan Shu was surprised and wanted to take the opportunity to understand the situation between Cao Cao and Lu Bu, so he immediately met the envoy in the hall-like hall of the palace.

The envoy respectfully worshiped Yuan Shu and said, "The chief clerk under General Lu Bu met with Duke Yuan. At the same time, I will also pay homage to Duke Yuan on behalf of my lord." Chen Gong's behavior immediately made Yuan Shu feel good. The original disgust towards Lu Bu instantly disappeared. He smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Gongtai to come in person! I wonder what happened to Mr. Feng Xianshu?" Chen Gong said respectfully: "My general said that he and Mr. Yuan had no grudges in the past, and he should not have met each other recently. He hoped that the two families would live peacefully and stop the war." Yuan Shu thought for a while and said, "I think so too, I am afraid that Mr. Gong Xianshu will not be sincere! Unless Mr. Feng first returns to Xia Cai and other places!"

Chen Gong said, "My general has had this intention for a long time, but he is worried that Mr. Yuan will not be willing to make peace with him, so he has not put it into practice. My lord often said that Mr. Yuan is the dragon among the people, and now he has the jade seal in his hand. That is God's will to promote Yuan to the Nine Five. How dare he compete with Mr. Yuan!" Yuan Shu had long been determined to be emperor since he got the jade seal given to him by Sun Jian. When he heard Chen Gong's words, he could be said to be in his heart. He couldn't help but look happy and said, "It's rare that Feng Xian has such insight!"

Chen Gong continued: "My general dared not compete with Mr. Yuan. He is willing to help Mr. Yuan accomplish great things. He is afraid that Mr. Yuan will not accept it and will take the opportunity to annex him, so he hesitated!"

Yuan Shu hurriedly said, "If Fengxian was willing to come and vote, how could I treat him badly!"

At this time, General Yang suddenly said, "I heard that Lu Bu is preparing to marry Cao Cao, but I wonder if he can do this?"

Chen Gong said: "This is true. However, the reason why my general is like this is just to seek refuge in the court. After all, the general is the Yulin General enthroned by the emperor! Alas, I didn't expect that Cao Cao entrusted the name of Han Prime Minister as a Han thief. Your Majesty and the court have now become a toy in Cao Cao's hands. My general is willing to serve the court but has no way to serve. Then Cao Cao deliberately used marriage as bait to try to take the opportunity to plot against Xuzhou. If it were not for God's will, Xuzhou would have fallen into the hands of Cao's thief! Cao's thief is so treacherous that my general is incompatible with his power!"

Yuan Shu was filled with joy when he heard his words.

General Yang said: "It's not impossible for Lu Bu to surrender to my lord, but how can we make us believe him? Lu Bu is a trustless person. Unless he returns to Xia Cai first, my lord will believe that he is indeed sincere."

Yuan Shu nodded immediately and said, "Yes, yes! Lu Bu must return Xia Cai first, so I believe he is indeed sincere! Only then can you talk about surrender!"

Chen Gong said: "I can repay Mr. Yuan's request to his lord. But there is something that needs to be informed. After Cao Cao's conspiracy failed, in order to stabilize my general and not let my general surrender to Mr. Yuan, he had decided to really marry my general. Jia Xu was also working hard to make this matter happen, but I strongly opposed it. When Mr. Yuan hesitated, I was afraid that Jia Xu would finally make a marriage with Cao Cao. At that time, Cao Cao and my general were in-laws, and the situation would be irreversible! I wonder what Mr. Yuan had plans at that time?"

Yuan Shu widened his eyes and couldn't speak for a long time. The situation Chen Gong said was the one he least wanted to see.

General Yang said angrily: "Didn't you say that Lu Bu admired my lord's intention to be effective? How dare you say such threatening words?"
