Fuji [Four Beauties]

Chapter 70 Ghostwriting

Cao Cao sent someone to take Cai Wenji to Xu County.Cai Wenji and Song Ci are old acquaintances with deep feelings.Cao Cao had a close relationship with Cai Yong, Cai Wenji's father.After Cai Wenji arrived in Yanzhou, Cao Cao took good care of her.Therefore, Cao Cao wanted Cai Wenji to investigate Song Ci's situation.

At the same time, Xun Yu also came to Xu County.After the emperor arrived in Xu County, he gave great rewards to the court officials, and Xu County became the temporary capital of the Han Dynasty and was renamed Xu Du.Xun Yu was granted the title of Shang Shuling, responsible for various internal affairs, so he naturally had to follow him to Xudu.

After welcoming the emperor to Xudu, Cao Cao still has things to do in Xudu.His base camp was originally in Juancheng, which was too far away from Luoyang and too close to enemies such as Xuzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou, and there was no danger to defend.Cao Cao listened to Dong Zhao's suggestion, and then decided to welcome the emperor to Xudu.

Now that the Son of Heaven has come, there cannot be two centers in the world.Cao Cao was faced with a problem, whether to move his political center to Xudu, or continue to operate in Juancheng.

This is a very sensitive and important issue.

Juancheng is the seat of Yanzhou. Cao Cao has been operating in Juancheng for a long time and has just gained a firm foothold.Many of his confidants have deep roots in Juancheng.If we rashly move the center to Xudu, I'm afraid it will cause opposition from everyone in Juancheng.

At the same time, there were not a few court ministers who followed the emperor to Xudu.Compared with the officials in Cao Cao's hands, their weight is far inferior to those.Now those ministers are not afraid of untold hardships, following the emperor to Xudu, each of them is naturally a meritorious minister.If they want to reuse them, Cao Cao has doubts in his heart.If you want to replace these people with your own men, I am afraid that these ministers will rise up and resist.

All these kinds are too numerous to enumerate.Cao Cao, who had too many things to do, naturally couldn't just focus on the unknown jade seal of the Chuan Kingdom and the whereabouts of the treasure.Therefore, he entrusted the investigation of Song Ci to his subordinates.

Now, Cao Cao still has very difficult problems to deal with.He managed to snatch the emperor among many princes. Although his momentum grew a lot in a short while, it also buried countless problems.Those princes who did not get the emperor resented him and refused to let it go.They united one after another and sent troops to attack Cao Cao and snatch the emperor back.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Cao Cao to stay leisurely in Xudu, waiting for others to hit him.After hastily settled the emperor and ministers, Cao Cao hurriedly took his men to resist the enemies who came to attack him.

Xun Yu stayed in Xudu as usual to handle various tasks.Because Xun You was seriously ill, he also stayed in Xudu to recuperate.

After Cai Wenji arrived in Xudu, she also heard many rumors about Song Ci.Among these people, Cai Wenji has the deepest understanding of Song Ci.After combining the rumors she had heard, Cai Wenji also roughly understood the reason why Cao Cao brought her to Xudu.

In this regard, Cai Wenji has only one principle, which is to pretend to be stupid.Cao Cao asked her to see Song Ci, so she went.Cao Cao asked her to use this to test Song Ci, so she did.On the surface, he said some tentative words, but in fact he used this to hint at Song Ci.

When Cao Cao sent someone to ask her the result, Cai Wenji, based on what Song Ci had said to her before, repeatedly stated that she and Song Ci did not know the basics, and could not ask why.After a long time, Cao Cao also knew where Cai Wenji was, but he couldn't find anything.It's just that he couldn't take care of himself now, and was suppressed and beaten by Yuan Shu, Tao Qian, Lu Bu and others.He didn't have time to care about Song Ci, so he put the matter aside for the time being.

These things are enough for Cao Cao to have a headache.Another thing happened to this incident, which just made Cao Cao fall into a major crisis.His childhood playmate, former comrade-in-arms, and now titular protagonist Yuan Shao came to make trouble.

Only now did Yuan Shao come back to his senses.He thinks the emperor is a good thing, and it is very useful to hold it in his hands.So he sent someone to Cao Cao, asking him to transfer the emperor to Yecheng, his headquarters.Of course, what Yuan Shao's envoy said nominally was that Xudu was too small and the city was not strong enough to be the capital of a country.Please ask the emperor to move to Yecheng, so as to protect the safety of the emperor.

Yuan Shao is now very powerful in the north, although there is still a very powerful Gongsun Zan, who has been fighting against him to keep him in check.But with Yuan Shao's strength, it's no problem to take care of Cao Cao.Yuan Shao came to ask for the emperor, but Cao Cao refused to give it.When he was angry, he might send troops to attack Cao Cao.

At that time, Cao Cao will be defeated on several occasions, and he will never recover.However, the weight of the Son of Heaven and the benefits it brings are difficult to estimate.If Cao Cao were to be like this, handing over to Yuan Shao the Son of Heaven, whom he had so hard to grab, he would really be reconciled.

To give or not to give, for a while, Cao Cao fell into a dilemma.

After Cao Cao left Xudu, he took a considerable part of his troops with him.Now the people staying in Xudu seem to be many, but in fact they are not monolithic.Xun Yu, who stayed in Xudu, knew very well that the defense of Xudu is weak now, if someone comes to attack, it may be difficult to defend.

Therefore, as soon as Cao Cao left, Xun Yu sent people to build deep trenches and high fortifications, build high walls, accumulate food and grass, and strictly defend.

It's different from their mood of walking on eggshells.Since arriving in Xudu, Liu Xie's mood has gradually become happier.It is not accurate to say that it is happy, and it should be more appropriate to use such words as relief, surviving after a catastrophe, and no extreme happiness.After all, since Liu Xie can remember, most of what he has experienced is not good.

First, the mother was poisoned to death by Queen He, and the father died.His grandmother, Empress Dowager Dong, was kicked out of the palace by Empress He, his elder brother was killed by Dong Zhuo, and he was kidnapped by Dong Zhuo and others and fled around.It has been reduced to the point where there is no one to eat and no one to sleep on.Regardless of the many emperors in ancient and modern times, I am afraid that none of them can be more miserable than him.

Now he can finally settle down, and the Cao Cao wooden sign also looks like a loyal minister of the Khan.He no longer had to be forcibly led around.This is already very rare for Liu Xie, who had a hard time living a peaceful life.No matter what happens in the future, at least for now, Liu Xie is very grateful to Cao Cao.

After Xu Du settled down, Liu Xie began to add officials and ranks to the ministers who had been with him all the way.Although he can't offer too many substantive rewards now, this does not prevent him from promoting the ministers.

After awarding court officials, Liu Xie thought of Song Ci again.Thinking of her many cares for him, he also thought of his sister, Princess Wannian.For a moment, Liu Xie's mood was mixed with sadness and joy.After calming down, he wanted to give Song Ci something.Cao Cao had asked Song Ci for a reward before, but Song Ci insisted on not wanting it.Liu Xie thought, maybe Song Ci doesn't like this.So he began to think about what to do so that Song Ci could accept it happily.

Liu Xie grew up in the deep palace since he was a child, and the favorite things of the women in the harem are nothing more than gold and silver jewellery, clothing, jewelry and other property.However, I don't like these Song Ci.But apart from these, Liu Xie really didn't understand what women would like.

Liu Xie didn't understand it himself, so he was going to ask others for advice.He heard that Xun Yu, the new minister, was well-rounded and elegant, and was very popular among women.Presumably, to be so popular with women, he must know how to please women.Liu Xie, who is still too young now, doesn't understand that some people are liked by others, not because he knows how to please others, but because those people are very pleasing regardless of their appearance, behavior and personality.

Therefore, when Liu Xie solemnly stepped forward to ask Xun Yu, who was playing for him, Xun Yu was quite surprised.

Looking at the immature but serious face of the emperor in front of him.Xun Lingjun, who is not only liked by women, but also by men, was speechless for a while.How to explain to the Son of Heaven, who is not well versed in the Tao, is a question,

Liu Xie waited for a long time, but still did not see Xun Yu answering.Liu Xie became anxious, and said, "Why don't you speak?"

Xun Yu hesitated for a moment, then said hesitantly: "Your Majesty's question, I need to calm down and meditate, I hope your Majesty will answer it at another time."

Hearing this answer, Liu Xie blinked, a little confused.Could it be that this question is so difficult that even a famous person like Xun Yu has to think twice before answering?

It is better to answer another day than no answer, so Liu Xie agreed.

Liu Xie didn't know that this question stumped Xun Yu, who was almost decathlon.After returning to the residence, Xun Yu retreated to the left and right, thinking hard for a long time, but still couldn't think of an answer.In desperation, he had no choice but to ask Xun You for advice.

Xun Yu is Xun You's uncle, there is not much difference in age between the two, and Xun Yu is six years younger than Xun You.The two have always had a deep relationship, Xun You also knows the inside story about Xun You and Cai Wenji.Compared to himself, Xun You must understand women's hearts better.So he went to Xun You with the question of the emperor.

Hearing Xun Yu's question, Xun You, who was drinking medicine and was always very steady, almost spit out the medicine.He looked Xun Yu up and down, his eyes revealed that you also have the meaning of today, looking at Xun Yu is very uncomfortable.

After a long time, Xun You restrained his expression, and replied seriously: "I don't know why Wen Ruo has such a question?"

On the outside, Xun You called Xun Yu his elders, but in private, he would call him Xun Yu's cousin.

The emperor asked Xun Yu about this matter in private. Even if the relationship was as close as Xun You, Xun Yu could not disclose the emperor's private affairs without authorization.He couldn't explain it clearly, so he had to vaguely bring it over.

Seeing him like this, Xun You had many guesses in his heart, and he couldn't pursue it on the surface, so he said: "If that woman doesn't like foreign things, she is a person with high aspirations. She may like poems with beautiful words, The sound of the piano with lofty and profound meaning, the calligraphy and painting that are as natural as nature."

Hearing Xun You's words, Xun You was thoughtful.He thought of Cai Wenji, Cai Wenji herself was a talented woman who was proficient in poetry, calligraphy, and good at rhythm.What Gongda said is probably what she likes, maybe this is what all such women like.

After careful consideration, Xun Yu relayed these words to Liu Xie.

When Liu Xie heard this, he felt a little embarrassed.What Xun Yu said made sense, but he didn't understand these things.No matter how reasonable it is, it's useless if he can't do it.Liu Xie thought about it again, it doesn't matter if he can't do it, he can find someone to do it.These things are the same as Qianbo jewelry, it doesn't matter if they are not made by themselves.

Therefore, Liu Xie, who felt logical and well-founded, handed over the matter to Xun Yu.Who told him to be a well-known and well-known talent?

As for what to give, Liu Xie also thought hard.Calligraphy is too mysterious, first-class rhythm is too short, and painting comes too slowly.Since Xun Yu is the minister, wouldn't it be appropriate to ask him to write a poem or a fu to praise him?

Thinking so, Liu Xie, a genius of logic, entrusted this arduous task to Xun Yu.
