    No matter what, Cao Cao had to face the fact that Cao Song died tragically in Xuzhou.

    He locked himself in his room without eating or drinking until the headache broke out again.

    Hearing Cao Cao's wailing, the guards rushed in and called for the imperial doctor.

    Not long after, Cao Cao woke up slowly, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Cao Pi's somewhat childish face.

    "Zihuan" Cao Cao called softly.

    "Father, the child is here, the child is here!" Cao Pi held Cao Cao's hand tightly.

    "Unknowingly, you have grown up." Cao Cao said with emotion.

    Cao Pi heard the implication. When he grew up, wouldn't his grandfather Cao Song be even older?

    "Father, don't be angry." Cao Pi advised. After all, the imperial doctor had given an explanation.

    "Okay, my father is not so fragile. You go to Chenliu now and bring back your grandfather's body." Cao Cao said.

    "Butfather." Cao Pi hesitated.

    "This little illness can kill me!" Cao Cao suddenly said angrily.

    "Father, calm down, the child will leave immediately." Cao Pi hurriedly walked.

    Looking at Cao Pi walking away, Cao Cao finally sighed.

    The ministers outside the door rushed in and greeted Cao Cao.

    Is Cao Cao the kind of person who needs comfort?  He was unwilling to show his vulnerable side in front of the ministers, so he said a few innocuous words and kicked them out.

    Only Sima Lang was left.  Xi Zhicai was sent to Xiliang to find out the details of Xiliang.

    "Miaocai, Yuan Rang, you two guard the door." Cao Cao ordered.

    Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun retreated, saying before leaving: "If my lord is feeling unwell, please call out."

    Cao Cao waved his hand and stopped talking.

    "My lord, my condolences and my condolences!" Sima Lang bowed.

    Sima Lang¡¯s identity will not be explained much. He was born in the Sima family in Hanoi and was Sima Yi¡¯s elder brother.

    As for Xun Yu, he has been gradually alienated by Cao Cao because he wavered between Xian Emperor and Cao Cao.  To be precise, he should be a Hanchen.

    Therefore, small and trivial matters were left to Xun Yu to handle. Cao Cao rarely asked his opinion on big policies.

    "Boda, what do you think I should do?" Cao Cao said urgently.

    "My lord, if you didn't say anything, I would have known that you wanted to raise an army to avenge Cao Gong." Sima Lang said.

    "My father's hatred is irreconcilable. If this hatred is not avenged, how can I, Cao Mengde, have the face to gain a foothold among the princes!" Cao Cao said excitedly.

    "A small impatience will ruin a big plan. In the past, Dongyang Marquis scolded Liu Yan with a document, and Liu Yan was so angry that he died. In order to seek peace, his son Liu Zhang donated the wealth of Shu, and Yizhou was preserved." Sima Lang advised.

    "Humph, Liu Zhang is no more than a rat." Cao Cao said disdainfully.

    "Rat people also have great wisdom and have a way of protecting themselves." Sima Lang said.

    "How do you say this?" Cao Cao asked puzzled.

    "My lord also knows that there are constant disputes in the world, and the Dongyang Hou family is the dominant one. Yuan Shao sharpened his sword and plotted in Hebei, just to have the power to fight Dongyang Hou. If our army raises troops at this time, wouldn't it be fulfilling his wish?"  Sima Lang analyzed, "Are you willing to hold back the Marquis of Dongyang for Yuan Shao?"

    Cao Cao couldn't help but clenched his fist and said: "I am not as good as Dongyang Marquis, but Liu Xuande will always have to pay the price!"

    "Liu Xuande is just a turtle in a urn, and he will die sooner or later under the sword of Marquis Dongyang!" Sima Lang said.

    "But, you can't kill your enemies with your hands The hatred in my heart has nowhere to put it." Cao Cao said.

    "This is the second thing I want to say." Sima Lang said unhurriedly.

    "What can Boda teach me?" Cao Cao said.

    "The Marquis of Dongyang has always done things according to rules. Has my lord ever thought about preserving Yanzhou?" Sima Lang asked rhetorically.

    Cao Cao is ready to give up Yanzhou completely, but no matter what, Yanzhou is a big state, how can he give up just because he just wants to?

    ? Among them, great perseverance is required.

    If he can keep Yanzhou, he will be willing to do whatever Cao Cao is asked to do.

    Sima Lang had already seen the answer in Cao Cao's eyes, and he continued: "When the Marquis of Dongyang breaks Xuzhou, he will definitely threaten Yanzhou. Because the lord is the leader of the allied forces, and he must pay the price for defeat. Even if there is an armistice agreement, there is no way to protect it.  He will not become the target of Dongyang Hou."

    "Continue." Cao Cao was fascinated.

      "When Dongyang Hou's army approaches Yanzhou, our army will hang white scarves on the city wall. Dongyang Hou will definitely feel guilty when he sees it, and Yanzhou will be fine by then." Sima Lang said.

    ¡°In the final analysis, this was just an accidental injury.

    Cao Cao fell silent for a moment. In the final analysis, he was just sacrificing his reputation for a while.

    However, the problem has not been solved

    "Lord, I know this will make you feel wronged, but for the sake of the world, what does this grievance mean?" Sima Lang said, "As long as our army takes Xiliang and expands to the Western Region, it will not be without the strength to fight.  "

    Cao Cao closed his eyes, seeming to be thinking and making a decision.

    "Even if you raise an army, your sacrifice will be in vain." Sima Lang pointed out Cao Cao's weakness.

    "Okay, I'll just wait!" Cao Cao said. He set a small goal for himself, to pacify Xiliang within three years.

    After Cao Pi rushed to Chenliu in a hurry, he put on his mourning clothes and rushed all the way to Chang'an.

    At this time, he didn¡¯t know what to say, but he was very sad.

    Not only because of the death of my grandfather, but also because of the relationship between my father and my husband.

    Cao Cao personally went out to Hanguguan to greet Cao Song's coffin without disturbing anyone.  He suppressed the matter and only prepared it at home.

    The funeral has always been very low-key. Cao Cao did not notify any ministers. Even if there were flatterers who came uninvited, they were kicked out by Cao Cao.

    "Zihuan, after the funeral is over, you can rush to Yangzhou and continue your studies." Cao Cao said.

    Cao Pi felt the aura of indifference and couldn't help but said: "Father, I want to keep my filial piety!"

    But Cao Cao said firmly: "No, leave this matter to Zijian."

    "The second brother is just a five-year-old child" Cao Pi argued, but seeing the unquestionable look in Cao Cao's eyes, Cao Pi gave in.

    Now, Cao Cao wants to preserve Yanzhou, and then he will have the capital to make a comeback.

    By mastering the three states of Sizhou, Yanzhou and Liangzhou, Cao Cao will not fall behind too far.  If he can control the Western Region, Cao Cao will have the capital to pursue the world.

    Therefore, Yanzhou is still very important.

    Today, there are only three forces that can threaten Yanzhou.  One is the Marquis of Dongyang. Cao Cao has a three-pronged approach. According to the nature of the Marquis of Dongyang, he will definitely not attack Yanzhou.

    The second force is Yuan Shao. Now that Yuan Shao is focused on Hebei, and Yanzhou borders the forces of Dongyang Marquis, Yuan Shao definitely has no intention.

    The third one is Yuan Shu. It¡¯s not that Cao Cao looks down on him, but Yuan Shu really doesn¡¯t have the ability to attack Yanzhou.

    Therefore, Cao Song¡¯s funeral can only be handled in a low-key manner.

    "One day, I, Cao Mengde, will return as the king!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
