After reading the information sent by the single, Diao Chan's eyebrows were tightly locked for a long time.

After the battle of Puyang, Cao Cao recovered the counties like a shark. It can be said that Ma Chao's plan to enter Xuzhou this time not only did not achieve the expected purpose, but even caused the worst result!

Moreover, in terms of intelligence, after Diao Chan saw the news of Lu Bu's death, her frowning eyebrows were even more difficult to calm down: she knew Ma Chao best, and such a blow was undoubtedly much more serious for Ma Chao, who had extremely heavy feelings in his heart, than the loss of the entire Yanzhou!

Diao Chan couldn't imagine what kind of decision Ma Chao would make after returning to Chang'an. Fortunately, she knew that the Ma family still had a large number of far-reaching foxes, and they would have a way to persuade Ma Chao.

It's just that these days, Cao Cao's actions are too lightning: the entire Yanzhou, except for Zhang Miao in Chenliu County, almost responded to Cao Cao's return within five days.

And the latest intelligence shows that the situation on Zhang Miao's side is not good. Yu Ban, Xiahou Yuan, and Cao Ren were both virtual and real, and they continued to attack Yongqiu, which was guarded by Zhang Miao's younger brother Zhang Chao, and the battle situation was extremely fierce. However, the ending is already doomed - after all, Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao are not famous generals in the world, and they can survive these few days, which is already very impressive. It is estimated that Cao Cao, who has already won the hearts of the people, will completely recover Yanzhou in a very short time.

Not only that, but parts of Yuzhou and Xuzhou are now under Cao Cao's control. Moreover, he also officially took the position of Sikong and concurrently led the pastor of Yanzhou, so justifiably, Cao Cao's rule over Yanzhou will be more smooth. What worries Diao Chan even more is that Cao Cao, who is already forty years old, has entered the age of not being confused, and after experiencing such a series of dangerous and turbulent events, he will have a broader vision in politics.

At least, he praised Yuan Shao heavily, asked Emperor Xian to make Yuan Shao the Marquis of Ji, gave Puyang as a fief to Yuan Shao, and actively offered a book to submit to Yuan Shao's posture, which really made Yuan Shao's good-faced guy happy. Let Diao Chan see that Cao Cao is already a master of manipulating people's hearts.

All kinds of troubles were piled up in front of Diao Chan, so that Diao Chan didn't even feel a little sleepy. Only in the face of the cold night sky, look at the brightest one in the sky: that battle star, at this time, should also return, right?

Thinking of him, Diao Chan unnaturally stroked her bulging lower abdomen with her hand, and her face couldn't help but reveal a holy brilliance that only a mother has. And when she saw the stars in the sky blinking her eyes, the corners of Diao Chan's mouth suddenly smiled: when she thought of him, although it was difficult, she would always show a knowing smile, so that the flowers were willing to wither in shame.

As the night wore on, Diao Chan got up and went back to her inner room to get ready for bed, leaving all her worries to be dealt with to-morrow: for she remembered that the man had said that she was in a bad mood, that she was too worried, and that it was not good for the fetus in her womb.......

Thinking of these warm words, Diao Chan's steps became a little lighter, but after all, her body was getting heavier, and she didn't walk fast. However, the moment she pushed open the door, she almost exclaimed: under the dim light of an oil lamp, Ma Chao's majestic figure sat quietly aside, the silent breathing and his angular face, in such an environment, actually made him have a cold aura like a sculpture.

In an instant, Diao Chan's heart was filled with a huge surprise. However, when she saw the obscure, even cold and hard look on Ma Chao's face, she stopped the smile on her face that she wanted to bloom, and then said nothing, pretending not to see Ma Chao, and walked into the house as usual.

"Lu Bu is dead........"

Ma Chao's first sentence was like this.

"yes, I know." Diao Chan still looked calm and calm, without the slightest joy of reunion after a long absence, nor did she have such a low and gloomy comfort and pity for Ma Chao, just as usual, after looking around the house casually, she said: "When did the husband return, why didn't the concubine receive any news?" ”

"I'll be back in time." Ma Chao didn't seem to mean to talk deliberately, and after Diao Chan deliberately changed the topic, he quickly answered.

It's just that such an answer made Diao Chan's figure slightly shocked: At this time, it was already the middle of the year, that is to say, since Ma Chao returned, he has been meditating in his room for four hours!

Such a reaction can't help but be worried. But like her wise and virtuous wife, she knows that the more serious the situation, the more she must look at and observe it with the most ordinary heart.

"You know, I'm coming back from Weifu. When I came back, I saw that Chang'an was richer, and the smiles on the faces of the people were happier. Especially after returning here, I have remembered how lucky and wonderful it is to be with you in this life........"

"However, cicadas, do you know that as long as you leave Chang'an, there is only one pass to block it, and Guanzhong and Kanto are two completely different worlds. There is even a person who brought hell to Guanzhong, and he was buried in the hell he brought! ”

"I know." Diao Chan sat quietly on a rocking chair, about three steps away from Ma Chao, which could not only make Ma Chao feel her existence, but also did not infringe on the scope of Ma Chao's thoughts: "The person that the husband said should be Feng Xiangong, right?" ”

"Yes, that's him." Ma Chao stood up, sitting for a long time made him a little unfamiliar with standing, and his body was numb and stiff a lot: "It's just that everyone doesn't know that the hell brought by Feng Xiangong is me!" It was I who secretly manipulated everything, and I also caused Feng Xiangong to finally die in my conspiracy! ”

"What are you going to do?"

"I don't know, I'm here to come up with a solution."

"Did you think of it?"

"Not yet."

At this point in the conversation, there was an eerie silence in the room. Ma Chao and Diao Chan were lying and standing, staring at each other, their faces calm and their eyes changing. It was as if the whole room was flowing with a wordless thought, communicating, murmuring. It's just that both thoughts are cautious, and neither dares to be the first to touch the other's hearts.

And the one who broke this silence was still Diao Chan.

"Husband, the concubine can't figure it out, why is the final outcome of the matter like this?"

"I don't know, it's like everything is out of control. I underestimated Yuan Shao, underestimated Liu Bei, underestimated Cao Cao, and underestimated Liu Xie! ”

"But as far as the concubines know, the husband has rarely underestimated the ........ of the enemy"

"Yes!" Speaking of this, Ma Chao finally had a trace of emotional fluctuations, he couldn't help but take a step forward, and said with a little excitement: "I didn't expect that they would dare!" ........ Liu Xie actually dared to take over Cao Cao's control of Yuzhou; Cao Cao actually dared to bite Yuan Shao firmly when Yuan Shao was jealous of him; And Yuan Shao dared to take the lead in breaking the unspoken rules of the two families and marching into Yanzhou; What's even more odious is that Liu Bei, who is just a Xuzhou pastor, actually threw away the olive branch I personally threw to him at the last moment! ”

"Why didn't that husband think that there would be so many variables in this?!" Diao Chan got up slightly and looked up at Ma Chao. Just a short sentence deeply angered Ma Chao!

Ma Chao, who was looking eagerly at Diao Chan's eyes, suddenly turned to the side after hearing Diao Chan's unreasonable words, and a trace of unreasonableness and hideousness suddenly flashed on his face. However, Diao Chan stared at Ma Chao so brightly, so that even Ma Chao, who had twisted his face, could feel Diao Chan's burning eyes!

The reunion between the two after a long absence, it seems that in one sentence, it will turn into an unhappy parting. However, suddenly, Ma Chao's expression was relaxed and defeated, because after he was suppressed by anger, he suddenly felt: Diao Chan's words are very reasonable!

Yourself, why can't you think of this?
