In any case, the potter can be regarded as doing Cao Cao a favor, even if this favor is not authentic and fake, it is also a help, and Cao Cao has to admit this favor no matter what he says.

But this favor is really awkward, and it makes people feel unhappy.

Cao Cao glanced at the potter with his eyes, forcibly suppressed his anger, and said: "Since it is what Taifu said, it must be true, Han Mengdang was indeed beheaded by Ang'er." ”

The pottery merchant nodded solemnly and said: "It is true, although Zixiu Gongzi has had it, but his feelings are pitiful, and since he has already made great contributions, please ask Sikong to allow him to make meritorious contributions." And in front of the two armies, it is a sensitive season, and it is useless to kill without permission, Brother Meng De thought about it carefully. ”

The stone in Cao Cao's heart fell, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and he nodded to the potter: "Since it is Taifu who is willing to vouch for this bastard boy, alas! Anyway, then Cao will open the net and spare the life of this rebel. ”

When Cao Jun heard this, he was relieved.

Cao Ang has had it, but he can't be punished by a doctor, let alone beheaded before the battle?

Cao Ang was also relieved.

Cao Cao said lightly: "But the death penalty can be avoided, the living crime cannot be escaped, Cao Ang violated military law and must be punished!" If no punishment is imposed, it may not be enough to deter the three armies...... Left and right, push him down, take him to the school grounds, and punish him with fifty battles! ”

When everyone heard this, they all felt that it was a bit heavy, and fifty blows were enough to kill Cao Ang under normal circumstances.

But Cao Cao had already spared Cao Ang after all, and everyone didn't have much to say.

Moreover, the soldiers who performed the battle were all Cao Cao's close attendants, and those people were all discerning, and they had the weight under their hands, so it must not be a big deal, just to make a superficial article for the soldiers of the three armies to see.

After Cao Ang was taken down, Cao Cao immediately announced the dissolution of the account, but after everyone left, the potter and Zhao Yun obviously had no intention of moving the place.

As soon as he saw that the potter was not leaving, Cao Cao's right eyelid jumped.

What he said excitedly at the right time, Cao Cao now wants to regret it a little.

Who knows what kind of moth this kid will come out of.

He coughed softly, pretended not to see the potter, and got up to slip out of the tent.

The potter didn't give him a chance.

"Brother Meng De, where are you going in such a hurry? Don't you see Tao still sitting here? ”

Cao Cao greeted the female compatriots of the pottery merchant's ancestors one by one in his heart, and then he smiled hard, turned his head to the pottery merchant's forehead and said, "Brother Tao, what else do you have to advise?" If you are willing to sit here, then feel free, you can sit for as long as you want, Cao still has something to do, there are a lot of chores in the barracks, and they need to be dealt with, I am very busy......"

The potter smiled when he heard this, and said, "If Brother Meng De is busy, please go by yourself, in fact, I don't have any big deals...... It's just that I suddenly remembered that Han Meng seemed to have been killed by Zhao Yun. ”

Cao Cao's steps to walk out suddenly stopped, he took a deep breath, revealing a gentle expression, looking tired of a person.

"Brother Tao just now seemed to say that there was something to ask Cao to help, hey, you see my brother's memory, I forgot everything when I got busy, and that's it when I'm older, no younger than my brother...... What's going on? ”

The potter smiled and said, "Thanks to Brother Meng De, I almost forgot just now, won't I cause you trouble?" ”

Cao Cao turned back, smiled and waved his hand: "No trouble, no trouble, what Brother Tao said, you have to be cautious about what you say as a brother, besides, you help me keep Xuchang, and Cao should be a little grateful." ”

"Really not bothersome?" The potter reconfirmed.

"It's really not a hassle." Cao Cao was sure.

"If it's inconvenient, Brother Meng De must tell me."

"If you have any fart, let it go quickly, don't ink it, don't ......"

The potter said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal, but if after defeating Yuan Shao, when our army returns to Xuzhou, I want to take a detour to Yingchuan Yangzhai and his party, I don't know if Brother Meng De will allow it?" ”

Cao Cao was stunned when he heard this, he thought that the potter was either asking for money or the city.

It turned out to be a detour.

It's not a big deal, but I'm afraid it's not that simple.

Cao Cao still looked smiling on the surface, but a thousand thoughts had already turned in his heart.

The potter looked at Cao Cao with a smile and said, "Brother Meng De, is this matter feasible?" ”

Cao Cao only thought about it for a moment, but immediately reacted.

He smiled, stroked his beard and asked Tao Shangdao: "It's not a big deal, but Cao still has to ask, why did the prince of Taiping act like this?" Yang Zhai is not very close to your Peicheng. ”

The potter sighed and said: "Back then, Kong Ling of Yingchuan had the grace of supporting me, although he is now dead, but the grace of the old man is not expected, I want to take this opportunity to go to the old place to worship him, which can be regarded as the full love of the old man back then." ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he secretly said in his heart!

Still worship Kong Ling? Why don't you say worship Confucius?

In his heart, he was extremely disdainful of Tao Shang's words, but Cao Cao still smiled and said: "Brother Tao is really a person who values love and righteousness, and people like you, if they can be friends, it is really a great fortune in life." ”

Tao Shang smiled and said: "Brother Meng De has praised it, if there is a chance in the future, Tao will do the same thing to his brother." ”

When Cao Cao heard this, it was quite beautiful at first, but later he thought about it and thought about it.

It's like cursing me to death.

Suppressing the anger in his chest, Cao Cao said lightly to Tao Shang: "Since Brother Tao attaches so much importance to love and righteousness, then what does it matter if Cao fulfills you?" It's just that how can you be so confident that we can win against Yuan Shao, if Yuan Shao wins the two of us in the future, don't say that you go to Yangzhai to pay tribute to Kong Ling, I'm afraid that Yuan Shao will have to pay tribute to you and me at that time.

Tao Shang said with a smile: "With Brother Meng De sitting here to arrange scheduling, Tao is extremely confident in defeating Yuan Shao...... Follow Brother Cao, everything will happen. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help laughing.

After the matter was settled, the potter and Cao Cao exchanged a few more polite words, and then took their leave.

As soon as the potter left, Cao Cao immediately sent someone to find Xi Zhicai.

Cao Cao described the potter's request to Xi Zhicai, and said: "The potter seems to be a gentleman and kind, but in fact he is cunning like a fox, and he has always been quite meaningful.

Although Xi Zhicai is known for his strategic design, he didn't figure out such a weird and strange request for a while.

When he was young, Fang heard him say slowly: "If it is said that the potter thinks of Kong Ling and goes to his hometown to worship him, I don't believe it, even if the relationship between him and Kong Ling is really good to such a point, it is enough to set up a mourning hall in Xuzhou, this move is indeed strange, but it doesn't matter, we don't necessarily have to know what the potter wants to do, we just need to know the movements of the other army, and then design it."

When Cao Cao heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and said: "The intention of the king is not to take advantage of the opportunity of the potter to go to Yangzhai, design to cut off his way back, and then ......."

As he said this, Cao Cao stretched out his hand and made a decapitation motion.
