Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

"My lord, please speak." Chen Gong felt Cao Ang's solemn expression and had a bad premonition in his heart.

Cao Ang said in a deep voice: "Zang Ba, the governor of Yanzhou, has a close personal relationship with Dong Zhuo.

When Dong Zhuo was alive, he doted on him. I guess Zang Ba is likely to collude with Cao Cao.

I am worried that after you go to Yanzhou, you will be attacked by Zang Ba and Cao Cao.

Therefore, I want you to bring some elite soldiers with you to secretly protect you."

Chen Gong's expression changed slightly as Zang Ba and Dong Zhuo approached.

Cao Ang's worries were not unfounded. Zang Ba was already ambitious. Now that he had the opportunity to control the entire Yanzhou, wouldn't he rebel?
But Chen Gong didn't know why Cao Ang reminded him of this matter. Chen Gong thought for a moment and said seriously: "Thank you for your reminder, my lord. I know what to do now."

Although Chen Gong was very curious about why Cao Ang did this, he knew that he should do as Cao Ang said, otherwise Cao Ang would definitely not forgive him.

Chen Gong understood that Cao Ang was giving him a warning.

Cao Ang smiled and said, "That's great!"

After that, Cao Ang chatted with Chen Gong for a while and then asked Chen Gong to leave.

Xu Shu and the other three saw that Cao Ang and Chen Gong talked for a few words and then let Chen Gong go. They were surprised that Cao Ang and Chen Gong seemed to have a close relationship.

"The lord and Lord Chen have a very good relationship." Dian Wei said honestly.

Huang Zhong showed a meaningful expression, as if he had discovered something.

"Han Sheng, what do you think of the relationship between the lord and Lord Chen?" Xu Shu said to Huang Zhong.

"I don't know!" Huang Zhong shook his head. Chen Gong had a high prestige in the court, so Huang Zhong didn't dare to make any rash judgment.

Xu Shu sighed. He didn't expect Huang Zhong to give such an answer. Could it be that he didn't notice anything at all?

"Han Sheng, you have followed the lord for so long, can't you see that the lord likes Lord Chen?" Xu Shu asked tentatively.

Huang Zhong's face changed, and he said hurriedly: "Yuan Zhi, be careful with your words!"

Huang Zhong felt a little frightened.

Xu Shu said helplessly: "Han Sheng, you and I are ministers in the same palace, I don't want to harm you.

I see that the lord admires Lord Chen very much, and he also has other intentions.

As subordinates, it is best for us not to speculate on the king's thoughts."

Huang Zhong could tell that Xu Shu had good intentions, but he didn't want to be misunderstood. After all, he was a military general, and loyalty was the most important thing for him.

Huang Zhong thought for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "Yuanzhi, I know I was wrong."

"It's good that you can figure it out. The lord sent you to Yanzhou this time to stabilize Cao Cao, not to target Lord Chen.

You must be careful on your way. If you encounter any danger or difficulty, you must report it to the lord, and don't be stubborn. "

Xu Shu warned.

Huang Zhong nodded to indicate that he remembered.

"Okay, go pack up and set off tonight." Xu Shu said.

"Yes, I'll take my leave!" Huang Zhong took the order and left.

As soon as Huang Zhong left, Lu Bu rushed in from outside.

"Fengxiao, Yuanhao, why are you here? Did the lord summon you for something?" Lu Bu asked puzzledly.

"Fengxian, you're here just in time." Xu Shu briefly explained the situation: "Go find Gongtai and Boxuan. They are probably packing their bags now. We also need to rush to Yanzhou as soon as possible."

Without saying a word, Lu Bu turned around and ran out, finding Ju Shou and Xun You.

Ju Shou and Xun You had already packed up. When they saw Lü Bu coming, they asked, "Fengxian, what is the lord's will?"

"Zifang, Gongtai, the lord asks you two to set off for Yanzhou today, just in case." Lu Bu said lightly.

Ju Shou and Xun You were both stunned. What was going on?

"Fengxian, did the lord give a specific reason?" Ju Shou couldn't help asking. "I don't know the specific reason. But the lord said that Lord Chen might conspire with Yuan Shao to rebel." Lu Bu said honestly.

Ju Shou and Xun You gasped. Yuan Shao and Cao Cao had joined forces, and Liu Xie was in trouble this time.

"Gongtai, Wenruo, pack your bags quickly and leave Xuchang immediately. My lord specifically told me to ensure your safety," Lu Bu urged.

"Okay, I understand." Ju Shou and Xun You didn't expect Cao Ang to look at this matter in this way.

After packing up their luggage, Ju Shou and Xun You hurriedly left the palace.

Lu Bu also packed his luggage and left.

Chen Gong was also packing his luggage. He was also about to set off for Yanzhou. He planned to secretly lurk in Yanzhou and wait for an opportunity to assassinate Cao Cao, buying more time for Sun Ce and Jiangdong.

Xu Shu also left the palace quietly.

After leaving the palace, Chen Gong went straight to Cao Cao's residence. Cao Cao and Liu Bei were discussing the situation in Yanzhou in the meeting room.

After learning that Chen Gong wanted to see him, the two immediately asked the housekeeper to take Chen Gong to the living room.

After Chen Gong entered the meeting room of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, he bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings to my lord, and to Lord Xuande!"

"Gongtai, you are here." Liu Bei eagerly invited Chen Gong to sit down, and then asked, "I wonder what brings you here, Gongtai?"

Chen Gong said calmly: "The lord has ordered us to go to war immediately."

Cao Cao and Liu Bei looked at each other. They were already prepared and were just waiting for Cao Ang's order.

"Then let's send troops." Cao Cao said decisively.

Liu Bei also nodded and agreed: "The morale of our army is low, and we need war to recover."

Chen Gong saw that the two were determined and said, "If that's the case, let's get going now."

"Gongtai, what is your mission?" Cao Cao suddenly asked.

Chen Gong had expected something like this to happen: "I am responsible for supervising the army to prevent anyone from cheating. If anyone is found delaying, he will be beheaded immediately."

"Good." Cao Cao praised. What he was most worried about was that Chen Gong would stop him from attacking Yanzhou.

Cao Cao and Liu Bei led their officials and troops to advance towards Yanzhou.

After Cao Cao and the others left, Cao Ang said to Dian Wei: "E Lai, you go to Beihai State immediately and tell Meng Yan to dispatch troops to Yanzhou for support as soon as possible."

"Yes!" Dian Wei agreed and quickly left the palace on his Red Hare.

Although Chen Gong knew that what Cao Ang did was right, he still felt a little guilty.

"Gongtai, why are you looking at me like that?" Cao Ang noticed something was wrong with Chen Gong and said with a chuckle.

Chen Gong sighed, "My Lord, you think too highly of me. If you ask me to leave the palace so soon, I am afraid that it will affect your great cause."

Cao Ang waved his hand: "I have more important things to do now."

Chen Gong raised his eyebrows. Cao Ang had something more important to say, which was almost the same as what Chen Gong said.

"My lord, is your target Yuan Tan?" Chen Gong asked tentatively.

"Well. I not only want to get rid of Yuan Tan, but also Yuan Shu. As for Jizhou, I will not consider it for the time being." Cao Ang said coldly.

Chen Gong understood why Cao Ang was like this; Yuan Shu had already become enemies with Cao Ang.

In addition, the current situation does not allow Yuan Shu to stay. Cao Ang does not want Yuan Shu to become his enemy.

"My lord, I understand." Chen Gong said with a bow.

"I have something to deal with now. You can leave first." Cao Ang said.

"I'm leaving." Chen Gong knew that Cao Ang had important things to do, so he didn't want to waste Cao Ang's time here.

After watching Chen Gong disappear, Cao Ang smiled and said to himself, "I really hope you can return to Luoyang as soon as possible.

By then, you will know my intention." (End of this chapter)
