    Wang Lang was originally the governor of Kuaiji, but he disobeyed Liu Ke and was expelled. He turned to Cao Cao and paid homage to the officials.

    He is very low-key in Cao Cao's camp. He is in charge of prisons, often forgives criminals when handling affairs, and gives light punishments when there are doubts about the charges. He gradually accumulates his reputation.

    Although he has been away from Yangzhou for many years, Wang Lang's power is still there, so it is most suitable to send him to recruit Zuo Rong.

    "Good." Cao Cao agreed.

    Sima Yi elaborated on some details and improved his plan, and Cao Cao nodded frequently.

    "In this way, I will have the face to meet Zhicai."

    When he said this, I didn¡¯t know how Cao Cao felt.

    ¡­¡­

    On the same day, Zhuge Liang was watching the stars at night and found a comet streaking across the sky. He couldn't help but feel a little sad.

    "Kong Ming, what did you find?" Liu Ke asked curiously.

    "A famous figure in the Central Plains has fallen." Zhuge Liang said.

    The next day, Liu Ke received news that Xi Zhicai, an important counselor of Cao Cao's army, died of illness.

    "What a pity." Liu Kedao said.

    There are many celebrities in Yingchuan, and Xi Zhicai is one of them.

    But unlike others, Xi Zhicai came from a poor family and had no identity background. Cao Cao took a liking to him at a glance.

    The Xun family of Yingchuan was the head of the scholars within Cao Cao's group and had a huge influence.  Its intricate relationship with the Yingchuan Zhong family, Hanoi Sima family and other aristocratic families made it a powerful force second only to the Xiahou Cao who was in charge of the army.

    If Xun Yu had not advocated "serving the emperor" and separated from Cao Cao, I am afraid that the Xun family would have gone one step further.

    The people of the aristocratic family are too complicated!

    Xun Yu defected to Cao Cao, but Xun You served in Yangzhou. Xun Yu's son-in-law Chen Qun was also an important minister in Yangzhou.

    How can this reassure Cao Cao?

    The appearance of Xi Zhicai made Cao Cao's eyes light up and he wished he could sleep on the same bed with him.

    ¡°It¡¯s a pity that Xi Zhicai passed away at a young age.

    For this reason, Cao Cao held a grand funeral.

    "Xi Zhicai is a contemporary celebrity, do we want to express our gratitude?" Liu Kedao.

    "My lord, just send someone to express condolences." Zhuge Liang said.

    With Liu Ke¡¯s current level, there is really no need to go to war.  Xi Zhicai's ability is good, but that's all, and he has no great achievements.

    "Well, let Zhou Buji go there on my behalf and learn about the situation in Xuchang." Liu Kedao.

    Xi Zhicai fell, and someone must have taken over. It was a huge blow to Yingchuan's forces.

    Liu Ke needs to know what changes will happen to Xuchang as a result.

    "Zhou Buyi is young and arrogant. My lord may as well send another official to accompany him." Zhuge Liang said.

    Liu Ke thought about it and said, "Xin Pi is quite free recently, let him go with us."

    Xinpi also comes from Yingchuan, just like going home.

    So, Zhou Buyi and Xin Pi walked westward and arrived in Runan, where they stayed for a while.

    Xin Pi was puzzled and said: "My lord ordered us to rush to Xuchang immediately without making any mistakes. Why should we stop?"

    "You don't know this, right? Xuchang is in enemy territory. We rush into it rashly. How can we do it without any protection?" Zhou Buyi said.

    "What kind of protection do you need?" Xin Pi asked.

    Soon Xinpi understood, because he saw a large number of cavalry, led by Gao Shun.

    After Gao Shun stopped, Zhou Buyi hurried over to lead the horse and shouted kindly:

    "Uncle Gao."

    The corner of Xinpi's mouth twitched, this clever guy actually found a backer!

    Liu Ke sent Zhang Liao and Gao Shun to command a hundred thousand troops to garrison in Runan, just to keep an eye on Xuchang's every move.

    Gao Shun dismounted and patted Zhou Buji¡¯s shoulder, which was very firm.

    "Boy, your martial arts skills haven't slackened recently. It's clear that the master doesn't care about you anymore."

    "What do you mean you don't care about me? No, the teacher can think of me even in Yecheng. He asks me to run errands every day, which makes me exhausted." Zhou Buji showed off.

    "I am on military duty, so I am making an exception for coming out to see you this time. Don't worry, send someone to notify me if anything happens. If you are in danger, I will save you even if I take Xuchang, haha!" Gao Shun said cheerfully!  smiled.

    "Thank you, Uncle Gao!" Zhou Buji said, clasping his fists.

    After Gao Shun rode away, Zhou Buji ordered the team to continue moving forward.

    ????????????????????????????????With his thumb removed, he has gradually integrated into Yangzhou by relying on Yingchuan's signature, but he is still far behind Zhou Buyi.

    Although he did not have any position, Zhou Buyi was able to prosper in Yangzhou by relying on his connections as a student of Dongyang Hou.

    "This is called worshiping the top of the mountain. In Xuchang now, who wouldn't give face to General Gao Da?" Zhou Busu said proudly.

    Xinpi curled his lips, disdainful on the surface, but envious in his heart.

    Is this the feeling of having a backer?

    When Xin Pi was in Jizhou, he was doing well, but compared with Zhou Buyi, he was nothing compared to Zhou Buyi.

    When they entered the boundary of Xuchang, Zhou Buyi ordered Gao Shun's military flag to be hung.

    This is a small gift that Gao Shun left for Zhou Buyi before he left.

    The envoy team, which originally consisted of dozens of people, immediately became majestic after hanging this flag.

    Cao Cao's army scouts quickly reported to the police. After Cao Hong learned about it, he sent a thousand-man cavalry team to escort Zhou Buji.

    Nothing can happen to Zhou Bujie!

    "The Marquis of Dongyang has no good intentions. Xuchang finally stabilized." Cao Cao sighed after listening to Cao Hong's report.

    The last time Dongyang Hou was assassinated in Xuchang, Xuchang was in a state of panic.

    This time, although he did not come in person, he sent his disciple Zhou Buji.

    Zhou Buyi also has status in Yangzhou.

    "My lord, I'm afraid there is something fishy about this matter. Zhicai died of illness, so the Marquis of Dongyang has no reason to care." Sima Yi said.

    "Humph, he just wants to isolate me. He is calling the shots in the Tongque Tower and attracting talents from all over the world. But I have lost my ambition"

    Having said this, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel sad.

    "My lord, my condolences." Sima Yi said.

    "Didn't Zihuan come back from Bingzhou? Let him receive this senior brother and find out what Zhou Busuo's purpose is this time." Cao Cao ordered.

    Sima Yi resigned. It was because of Cao Pi that he surrendered to Cao again.

    Time is not forgiving!

    Cao Cao's sons have gradually grown up, and both Cao Pi and Cao Zhi have the opportunity to become the heir apparent.

    Sima Yi is Cao Pi¡¯s staunchest supporter, and Cao Zhi, with the help of brothers Yang Xiu and Ding Yi, is quite powerful. The reason why the conflict did not break out is because of the existence of foreign aggression.

    Whoever makes an attack at this time will become Cao Cao's enemy, so Cao Pi and Cao Zhi exercised restraint.

    However, they do not lack ways to fight.

    Cao Zhi was good at poetry and prose, and was deeply loved by Cao Cao. Cao Cao often praised Cao Zhi in front of his ministers.

    Cao Pi also had literary talent, but after all, he was not as good as the genius among geniuses.  When there was a locust plague in Bingzhou, Sima Yi suggested that Cao Pi should deal with it and show his performance, and the result was relatively successful.

    Now receiving Zhou Buyi is also a job!

    Sima Yi decided to talk to Cao Pi and come up with a favorable plan to make Zhou Buyi feel more at ease.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
