Chapter 790: Attack Xuchang and save Xun Yu
Facing Cao Pi's questioning, Xun Yu was stunned at first.
But he stabilized his mind in an instant, and replied calmly: "It's my brother Xun Chen." ”
As soon as these words came out, Cao Hong's eyes were a little unkind at that time.
Looking at his expression, he had the posture of jumping up and beating Xun Yu.
What is this not internal and external collusion?
Cao Pi smiled and nodded suddenly: "I heard that Wen Ruogong and Brother Ling have been talking for a long time in their mansion...... After this conversation, there was a question of Your Excellency going out of the city to meet the potter? ”
Xun Yu took a deep breath, he felt that he couldn't wash himself by jumping into the Yellow River now.
But he still maintained his calmness and demeanor.
"Second son, this matter is a trick of the potter, I think Sikong also understands it in his heart...... After meeting with my brother Xun Chen that day, I wrote a resignation letter to resign Da Situ, and then planned to hand it over to my brother personally, but I didn't want to meet the potter, this matter is that the other party has been planning for a long time, and wants to frame me! ”
Cao Pi raised his eyebrows and said, "That's what I said, but since Duke Xun knows that there is fraud in the middle, why do you want to risk going out of the city?" It doesn't make sense to say that. ”
Xun Yu's face turned red and white, and his body trembled slightly.
"The rules of the court are like this, if you don't accept the edict, you must write your resignation report by hand, otherwise it won't be a big rebellion......"
Cao Hong snorted heavily: "What court?" That's just a puppet dynasty controlled by potters! Wen Ruogong, are you using this to deceive a three-year-old child? What is Cao Mou! ”
Xun Yu took a deep breath and said, "I didn't lie to you, no matter who is in control of the imperial court, but the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, and the Han family is the Han family!" That has never changed. ”
Cao Pi glanced at Xun Yu deeply and said, "In this way, in the eyes of Wen Ruogong, the dignity of the imperial court is more important than the safety of my Cao family?" ”
A hint of anger instantly appeared on Xun Yu's face.
What is the matter?
How do you compare yourself with the Han family, and is this comparable?
The heart of disobedience is obvious.
"Yes!"
He replied categorically.
"It's the other way around! Fucking it's reversed! Cao Hong jumped like thunder, and he drew his sword and was about to go up to cut Xun Yu.
But he saw Cao Pi raise his hand to stop him, and said: "Uncle Zilian, you can't, you still need to be arrested and put in prison, interrogated carefully, and take the confession before you can be executed." ”
Killing Xun Yu is not a trivial matter!
Cao Hongqiang held back his anger and put the sword back into the scabbard, but his face was still full of anger.
At this time, the lion and tiger warrior who was in charge of searching Xun Mansion took a tablet engraved with the first emperor of the Han Dynasty, walked in front of Cao Hong and Cao Pi, and whispered a few words in their ears.
Cao Pi nodded with satisfaction, took the tablet from the lion and tiger warrior's hand, shook it at Xun Yu, and said, "Wen Ruogong is really loyal to the Han family, and the family still provides this?" ”
Xun Yu doesn't seem to be too lazy to look at Cao Hong and Cao Pi at the moment.
The spirit card of the first emperor of the Han Dynasty, he actually dangled it in his hand.
For Xun Yu, this is simply a rebellious act, and he really has nothing to say to such a person.
"What? Could it be that the spiritual seat of the first emperor can't enter the eyes of the two? Xun Yu said lightly.
Cao Hong was furious: "Xun Yu, you have committed a crime that is heavenly, and you don't know it?" How dare you talk nonsense? ”
Xun Yu looked at him coldly and said, "I thought that if Sikong could calm the world and govern the court, he would be able to restore peace in the world, justice to the people, and authority of the Han family...... It's a pity that I just thought of Sikong, but I didn't count the next generation of the Cao family, even though Sikong is wise and martial and loyal to the Han family, but after a hundred years, how can he stop you jackals? Alas, miscalculated, miscalculated! ”
At this time, I saw Cao Zhang, who was behind Cao Pi, stepped forward and punched
Hit Xun Yu's cheek!
Suddenly, he saw blood on Xun Yu's face popping out of his nostrils, he rolled his eyes, and passed out directly.
Seeing this, Cao Pi suddenly became anxious: "Third brother, don't be reckless!" ”
Cao Zhang squeezed his fist with a "rattle" sound.
"You're just a watchdog of my Cao family, how dare you make such a wild statement?" Cao Zhang looked at Xun Yu coldly, and then said to Cao Pi: "Second brother, this person is so disdainful of the Cao family, it is light to give him a punch!" ”
Cao Pi sighed helplessly, and said, "Your move is too much, if you leave a scar on his face, how can you explain it to your father in the future?" ”
Cao Hong pointed to Xun Yu on the ground and said, "Come on, pull it down, and take it in!" ”
The lion tiger stepped forward and carried Xun Yu who had fainted away.
And the entire Xun Mansion was also blocked by Cao Hong's troops.
After doing all this, Cao Hong immediately consulted with Cao Pi: "Virtuous nephew, how should I deal with the next thing?" ”
Cao Pi said lightly: "First interrogated Xun Yu overnight, got a confession, and confirmed his crime of colluding with the potters, and then consolidated the city defense, strengthened the defense, and summoned the people of the Shi clan in the city to prepare materials and assist in the defense." ”
Cao Zhang was anxious when he heard this: "Second brother, the eldest brother sent troops to ask for help, why don't we go to help him?" ”
The reason for searching Xun Yu's mansion was just because of the "Cao Ang" letter for help, and now Xun Yu has been arrested, but he did not send troops to save Cao Ang, but stuck to the city, which made Cao Zhang very incomprehensible.
Cao Pi was a little weak at the moment.
He encouraged Cao Hong to come here, in fact, mainly to be able to catch Xun Yu and punish him, and use it as capital to achieve his fame.
As for really sending troops from Xuchang to save Cao Ang, he didn't think about it in his heart.
Cao Pi even had dark thoughts in his heart, and he vaguely longed for Cao Ang to have an accident in this war......
It's better to have a bigger accident, such as an accidental death.
Seeing that Cao Hong also looked at him, Cao Pi turned his mind and said: "Actually, I have also thought about this matter, but now I think that if Xun Yu is imprisoned, then the eldest brother will be safe, and the danger may be our Xuchang City." ”
Cao Hong said puzzledly: "Why do you say this? ”
Cao Pi explained: "On that day, I saw that Xun Yu had a great relationship with the potters in the city, perhaps in the hearts of the potters, Xun Yu was the guarantee for him to take Xuchang, which is why he only cared about attacking Puyang recently, ignoring Xuchang...... Now that Xun Yu is in prison, if he really colludes with the potters, the potters will inevitably concentrate their forces and come to attack our Xuchang City...... But if you send troops, I am afraid that Xuchang City will not be protected. ”
Cao Hong suddenly patted his head and said, "I see, I see!" ”
Cao Zhang said with a smile: "This is an opportunity to test Xun Yu and the potter, if the potter really sends troops to attack Xuchang, then his charge of colluding with the potters will be confirmed!" ”
Cao Pi secretly praised Cao Zhang in his heart for being really able to cooperate with him, and said with a smile: "That's exactly the reason." ”
……
Xun Yu was imprisoned, and the news that Xuchang City was making every effort to strengthen the city defense soon reached the ears of the potter.
"It seems that in Xuchang City, it seems that someone is making a bad move for Cao Hong." The potter put down the information in his hand and said to Chen Deng with a smile.
Chen Deng stroked his beard and said, "Xun Yu has been imprisoned, then we can attack Puyang with peace of mind, and when Puyang City is broken, we can turn around and attack Xuchang." ”
"Nope." The potter shook his head: "On this side of Puyang City, leave the soldiers and horses to continue to surround and feint, and I will personally lead the troops to attack Xuchang." ”
Chen Deng said suspiciously: "Puyang City is about to be captured, it would be a pity to give up now, right?" ”
The potter smiled: "It is precisely because of giving up Puyang City, which is about to be defeated, to save Xun Yu, that the beautiful friendship between us can be more demonstrated, in Xuchang City, since someone is so cooperative with us, they want to push Xun Yu to my side, how can I not respond?" ”
