There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

After Cao Pi no longer concealed anything, he told Cao Hong everything from the envoy from Xuzhou who granted Xun Yu the title of situ, to the incident when Xun Yu was in Xuchang City, hanging shoulder to shoulder with pottery merchants.

Of course, Cao Pi's current behavior is purely for his own selfish desires, and there is inevitably some embellishment.

Cao Pi's words filled Cao Hong with righteous indignation, his face flushed, wishing he could go back and strangle Xun Yu to death now.

"I never thought that Old Xun would be so shameless, and Sikong would treat him so kindly, yet he would act like this, nephew, this time, you have to help me whatever you say!"

Chapter 788 Cao Pi's official career

For Cao Pi now, his greatest wish is to become an official as soon as possible.

After all, his eldest brother Cao Ang has entered the core range of Cao Cao's forces, which made Cao Pi jealous to some extent.

They were all sons of the Cao family, and he felt that his father favored his elder brother a bit more.

It's no wonder that Cao Ang was trained by Cao Cao as his successor, so the treatment of his younger brothers is naturally different.

But Cao Pi was not a person who was willing to accept his fate. He had a strong mentality of comparison since he was born.

Although on the surface he has always pretended to be humble and filial, but that is just the surface.

To a certain extent, he is more like Cao Cao than the heroic and generous Cao Ang, such as his suspicious personality.

But Cao Pi's age made them not as capable as Cao Cao, and they were able to suppress their own weakness of character very well.After all, he is young, and young people are very impulsive.

It's not scary to be suspicious, and you can't let go of jealousy, let alone be impulsive. But a suspicious, jealous, and impulsive person, plus this child is very good at pretending, is a bit dangerous.

Cao Cao has not given Cao Pi the opportunity to become an official now, so Cao Pi will find it by himself.

Cao Hong's invitation is obviously a good opportunity.

But Cao Pi sighed and said, "Uncle Zilian, it's not that my nephew won't help you, it's just that my nephew is a white man, and at most he has the name of Mr. Sikong. What can I do to help you, Uncle Zilian? "

Cao Hong patted his chest, and said boldly: "It's a trivial matter, what's the point? Cao was ordered by your father to guard Xuchang City, and the military and political affairs of Xuchang City are controlled by Cao! I will appoint How about you assist Cao to join the army?"

After hearing this, Cao Pi immediately became elated.

If he can take advantage of Cao Hong's opportunity to join the army and make great contributions in Xuchang City, how can he not look at him with admiration when his father comes back in the future?

Undoubtedly, my status will far surpass that of my elder brother Cao Ang!

As for what is the great contribution to the sky, what contribution can be greater than finding out the biggest traitor in the city?

Whatever you say about this matter has to fall on that Xun Yu's head!

Cao Pi stood up, cupped his hands to Cao Hong, and said, "My uncle trusts me so much, and my younger brother is duty-bound. For Xuchang, and for my father's foundation, my nephew will do my best to help my uncle."

Cao Hong nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Okay! It's rare that you have such a heart! In the days to come, it's up to you, my uncle and nephew."

Cao Pi was appointed by Cao Hong, and he went back very excitedly to report to Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Bian.

The two women didn't say much, they just told Cao Pi not to disappoint Cao Cao's foundation and Cao Hong's trust.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Pi went to find his two younger brothers.

Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi.

These two people are younger, especially Cao Zhi, who has just turned ten years old.

But even so, they are considered precocious among their peers. Cao Pi has no one to talk about on weekdays, so he turned to their two brothers.

As soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he saw Cao Zhang, who was only 13 years old, holding a big tripod, step by step in the courtyard with difficulty, sweating like rain.

Cao Pi grinned when he saw it.

Although this boy is only 13 years old, his burly body is already different from his peers, a little taller than his elder brother, and this kid is born with supernatural power, and he doesn't know who to follow.

Cao Pi's psychology is very dark. Sometimes he even speculates secretly, suspecting that his third brother was born by his Aunt Bian who stole the man and Dian Wei.

On the steps not far away, sat a thin child, who was seriously reading a book in his hand.

There is no doubt that it is Cao Pi's fourth brother Cao Zhi.

"Second Brother, are you back? What did Uncle Zilian tell you?" Seeing Cao Pi coming in, Cao Zhi hurriedly got up to greet him.

Cao Zhang also made a "bang", and threw the tripod in his hand on the ground, almost smashing a big hole in the ground of the mansion.

"Second brother! What happened?"

Cao Pi looked at the two of them back and forth, and said, "Uncle Zi Lian appointed me to join the army for him to help him deal with all the affairs in Xuchang City."

"Oh?"

The two younger brothers look at me and I look at you, and then they clasped their hands together and said, "Congratulations, second brother!"

Cao Pi waved his hand and said, "What congratulations are there? Now that foreign enemies have entered the country and the Jinling Army has set off a storm in the state, it is not a good thing to be entrusted with important tasks at this time, and Xuchang City may be breached at any time. As a young brother, the burden on this body is heavy!"

Cao Zhang laughed, and said with a big grin: "It's just a little thing. When the pottery merchant led his troops to conquer Dong Zhuo, he was 17 years old. The elder brother is two years younger than when he first became an official. If something big happens, the prestige is set above the pottery, and there are two of us to help you, right?"

Cao Pi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he said, "You two younger brothers, are you willing to help me?"

Cao Zhang patted his chest and said, "That's natural, we are brothers! If we don't help you, who will help you?"

Cao Zhi also nodded vigorously: "My younger brother is too young and has no other skills, but it is still possible to play ink. Second elder brother joined the army, so I will leave it to my younger brother to write official documents, and I will definitely do my best. "

Cao Zhang said, "I'll be your second brother's bodyguard, so I can take care of you."

With these two younger brothers, especially Cao Zhang, Cao Pi's heart can be regarded as letting go.

At least this can be regarded as having two helpers.

Although these two are young, Wu Yuan is very human, especially Cao Zhang, who already has the strength comparable to tigers and leopards.

In this way, he can safely collect evidence of Xun Yu's rebellion.

At the same time, Tao Shang ordered the army under his command to block the siege of Puyang City, and sent troops to attack every day, which made Cao Ang miserable.

Even Hao Zhao, facing such an offensive, was devastated and hadn't had a good night's sleep in the past few days.

After the city of Puyang was besieged, the potters began to order people to imitate Cao Ang to write letters for help according to the words on the volume of books that Cao Ang had left for him.

After several deliberations between him and Chen Deng, the letter finally took shape.

Then the potter asked You Lvzi to find an extremely capable spy in the school office, pretending to be a general who broke out of the city, and went to Xuchang City for help.

Drenched in blood, Xi Zuo galloped to Xuchang City.
