Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

If Cao Cao really regarded Xia Houyuan as a brother, he would not have done this, but would have revenged desperately.

They just wanted Ma Chao to die, but Cao Cao let Ma Chao live, which is so ironic.

They could only leave the palace with a feeling of displeasure in their hearts. When they returned home, Xia Houba remembered the past and said, "It would be great if the general was still here! He will definitely make decisions for us."

Xia Houheng said: "If the general is in Xiangyang, he will definitely not let Ma Chao go."

Xia Houba suddenly had a new idea, and hurriedly said, "Brother, how about we kill Ma Chao and then leave Xiangyang to find the general, what do you think?"

Now Ma Chao doesn't know if he is dead, but if he can be taken down for treatment, there is a high probability that he will survive. This is not the result they want.

After serious consideration for a long time, Xia Houheng shook his head and said, "We can do this, but we are not the only ones in Xiahou's family, there are other brothers and elders. It's okay to kill Ma Chao, but it will hurt them?"

"If it's just the two of us, it's okay, we should be able to escape, I'm afraid His Majesty will blame them who stayed in Xiangyang."

Their Xiahou family is so big, it doesn't mean that they can leave if they want to, and they are not Chen Yang, so they can't take so many people away.

"It doesn't work like this, it doesn't work like that, what are we going to do?"

Xia Houba said irritably.

"It may be difficult to leave now. How about we try first, arrange the family members outside the city in batches, and then find a way to kill Ma Chao, so that we can leave without any worries."

Xia Houheng thought for a while and said: "As long as Ma Chao can be killed at that time, it doesn't matter whether our brothers can live or not. The revenge will be avenged. As long as the other family members can, it will be enough. They will go to Chang'an to find the general, and everything will be fine." no problem."

Xia Houba felt that it was feasible to do so, and quickly said: "We have to make arrangements quickly."

Ma Chao was taken down for treatment. Although his injuries were not fatal, they were still serious. It took him more than two days to stay on the bed. During this time, of course, he had to plan what to do next.

Being able to live was within Ma Chao's expectation.

But after surviving, how to implement the plan is the most important thing. For these things, he has put in so much effort and even sacrificed so much, so he must not waste it in vain.

"Meng Qi, how do you feel?"

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Cao Pi walked in first.

During this period of time, only Cao Pi often came to see him, but Ma Chao couldn't figure out why Cao Pi did this.

"Lucky to be alive!"

Ma Chao responded politely.

"Does Meng Qi know, why should I help you?"

Cao Pi asked.

"Why?"

Ma Chao really couldn't understand this.

"Because I want to win over a group of people who belong to me."

Cao Pi said indifferently: "You just came to Xiangyang, so you may not know our internal affairs. Although my elder brother is not in power now and has been imprisoned, his prestige in the country is still very high. People like Dian Wei, Cao Ren, etc. , all turned towards him, as long as something happened, he would be the first person to think of."

This caused Cao Pi's heart to be very unbalanced, and his thoughts became deformed.

Hearing what he said, Ma Chao suddenly understood that it was probably a matter of their internal power seizure.

Because Cao Cao has not established a prince until now, according to normal reasoning, Cao Ang is the prince, but Cao Cao has not responded for a long time, which is tantamount to giving Cao Pi hope that he can make a move.

Cao Pi continued: "You should have thought, I want to fight with Cao Ang, right?"

Ma Chao nodded and said, "I can probably think of it, but the second son can't compete with the eldest son, so he wants to use some means, right?"

Cao Pi didn't hide anything, just nodded and said: "That's right, my elder brother has such a high prestige, it's hard for me to win him. As long as he is willing, most generals in the Wei Kingdom can follow his orders, so I will Looking for an ally."

"Meng Qi, you are a capable person. You were with Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang back then, but they didn't know how to employ people, and they followed the wrong people. In the future, you follow me, and I guarantee that your wish will be fulfilled, because I also want Chen Yang to die. ,how?"

He looked at Ma Chao expectantly.

"In Wei State, so many people hate me because I killed General Xiahou."

Ma Chao took a long sigh and said, "As I am now, no one will treat me well except Second Young Master. If I don't take refuge in Second Young Master, I will be ungrateful."

"it is good!"

Cao Pi clapped his hands directly and said: "When I win all these in the future, I will never forget Meng Qi."

Ma Chao secretly laughed in his heart, Cao Pi won all this?

He thinks it is almost impossible, not to say that he is here to cause sabotage, but to say that with Cao Pi's character and ability, it is tantamount to a fool's dream.

Of course, he won't say these things, as long as the internal chaos in Da Wei is more severe, the benefits will be greater for him.

For the next time, Ma Chao was waiting for an opportunity for Cao Cao to meet him. If not, there were many things that he would not be able to do.

-

Chen Yang returned to Chang'an and brought Mi Zhu back with him.

"Brother, why are you here?"

Mi Zhen was very happy to see her elder brother coming to Chang'an, and happily walked over to meet them.

"Where's my niece Shu'er? Bring it here for me to see."

Mi Zhu felt that his uncle had failed very well, and he hadn't gone back to see how Shu'er was doing for such a long time.

Hearing his shout, Shu'er ran out obediently, and said sweetly: "Uncle, long time no see."

Mi Zhu smiled and said, "So Shu'er is already so big, I almost can't recognize her, come on! This is a gift from uncle to Shu'er."

He took out a jade pendant carved from Hetian jade and handed it to Shu'er.

"Thank you uncle!"

Mi Zhen tapped the little girl's forehead.

Shu'er said happily, "Thank you uncle!"

"Uncle Zizhong, I want it too!"

Xiao'er didn't know when to run out, raised her little head, and said expectantly.

"Xiaoer, don't be rude!"

Guo Huan said reproachfully: "How did I teach you? Be polite, do you understand?"

"understood!"

Xiao'er lowered his head with a cute face.

"Ma'am, you don't need to be like this, kid, it's normal to be a little naughty."

Mi Zhu laughed, and said: "Xiao'er, hurry up and get Ru'er and Pian'er out, I have gifts for you."

Xiao'er didn't dare to be casual now, and looked at his mother.

"Go!"

Guo Huan patted his little head, and said: "Zizhong, you will spoil those children."

Xiao'er cheered and ran in.

Chen Yang also said: "Those brats are the easiest to be spoiled."

Mi Zhu laughed and said: "It's better for them to be naughty, run more now, so that they can grow taller quickly in the future."

After a while, all the brats in the room ran out, begging for gifts around Mizhu.
