Chapter 232 Traveling Far Away

Xia Zi's explanation surprised everyone present. The three major tribes of Xianbei summoned envoys from all tribes to form an alliance.This is a huge matter, and if it is not done properly, it will affect the status of the Han Dynasty in the frontier!
The Han Dynasty was at the peak of its prosperity and its mountains and rivers were beautiful. Since Emperor Xiaowu Liu Che, it has always been the leader among the tribes of the tribes outside the Great Wall. Due to the huge strength and large population of the Han Dynasty, its influence was far-reaching and even It can interfere with the position of Shanyu who canonize the tribes. All the tribes in Fanbang make offerings every year and pay homage every year. Even any conflicts between the tribes are all brought to the ruler of the Han Dynasty for resolution.Therefore, in this era of Asian land, the Han Dynasty is the leader of all ethnic groups and tribes!To be honest, the status is superb.

But that was all in the past after all. Today's Han Dynasty, due to the civil wars of various princes, was seriously exhausted and had no time to take care of the various ethnic groups outside the Great Wall. One ebb and flow, in recent years, the Xianbei and the Xiongnu who are close to Bingzhou have gradually appeared. Even so, because Cao Cao in the Central Plains supported Emperor Han and stabilized the interior, and the two great heroes of the North, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, were in the town of Merger and You, forming a check on the various ministries. Dare to act rashly.

However, in recent years, drastic changes have taken place in the north of the Han Dynasty. First, Gongsun Zanke died and changed the capital, and then Yuan Shao died. Coupled with the constant struggle between Hebei and the Central Plains, the ambitions of the tribes outside the Great Wall have been reduced. Unknowingly, it showed signs of resurgence again.

The most important evidence is the news brought by the Wuhuan envoy: The three major tribes of Xianbei have invited all the tribes to form an alliance. This kind of thing was almost unheard of before!
Yuan Shang's face turned blue. He has been in this era for some years, and he is very sensitive to the vibrations of these high-level officials. Inside the Central Plains, there will be an immeasurable threat!
He bowed his head and thought carefully for a long time, but Yuan Shang turned his head to Sima Yi and said, "Zhong Da, what do you think about this matter?"

Sima Yi's complexion was also very ugly, he swept away his indecisive expression in the past, and after thinking for a long time, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "My lord, now my land and land are divided among various lords, and the feudal lords are fighting each other. It is also reasonable to be unable to control these alien races in the northern border. However, people outside the Great Wall are warlike and use less tactics. They have no natural principles and are bloodthirsty. , have been attacking each other all year round, how can they suddenly unite and call the League? There must be something strange in it."

"What's so strange?" Yuan Shang didn't agree or disagree, but just continued to ask Sima Yi quietly.

Sima Yi thought about it for a while, and said, "This is also my self-deprecation. Yi suspects that this matter is probably related to a certain prince from the Central Plains, who provoked border disputes and undermined the stability of our northern border, so that he can profit from it." , to get a good chance!"

Yuan Shang sighed deeply when he heard the words, nodded and said: "I also thought of this, and this is what I am most afraid of. Alien barbarians are not scary, what is scary is that some forces from Middle Earth are mixed in, and I always feel that the challenge The forces responsible for this incident, as well as the one who assassinated Gongsun Xu and blamed the Yuan family last time, all came from one person!"

Sima Yi nodded lightly, and sighed: "It's very possible. My lord thinks, who would instigate these things?"

Yuan Shang and Sima Yi looked at each other faintly, and then said the same name in unison.

"Cao Cao!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Beside Yuan Shang, Xia Zi was so anxious that he almost jumped up from the spot.

At this time, Xia Zi was completely sure of Yuan Shang's identity, he came and went in and out of the prefect's mansion at will, and was called the lord by the city lord of Linrong City, and he was also a person who reported himself as Yuan San!

By this time, if Xia Zi still doesn't know that the person in front of him is the majestic head of the Yuan family, Hebei Zhixiong, then he is really a complete fool.

God's will is unpredictable!Unexpectedly, when I ran away from home, I would meet this legendary young overlord. Could this be the so-called providence?

But whether it was God's will or not, Xia Zi felt that his father Cao Cao would never do anything to collude with foreigners and deal with people inside the dynasty!

That's right, the word Xia Zi is Cao Zhi's pseudonym.

No matter what the world said about his father, whether he was a traitor or a traitor, he never believed that his father would do such a thing to corrupt his family!
no way!

Seeing Cao Zhi whose face was flushed with excitement, Sima Yi couldn't help being curious. He looked Cao Zhi up and down strangely, and said in a hoarse voice, "Why are you so anxious to speak for Cao Cao? Cao Cao is your father." ah!"

Xia Zi's face suddenly turned red.

"Anyway, anyway, I don't think Cao Cao would do such a thing!" Xia Zi waved his hands excitedly, a little angry but a little shy and said: "As far as I know, Cao Cao was born in a filial piety, and he walked step by step. Today's position as Sikong in the Han Dynasty was beyond his expectation. His original ambition was to engrave the tomb of Caohou, the general of the Han Dynasty who conquered the West, on his tomb after his death. The one he admired most was Changping. Hou Weiqing and the champion Hou Huo Qubing, hope to follow their example, wipe out the world, wipe out the outside world, and promote the prestige of the country! Even if you die, you will have no regrets!"

When Sima Yi heard the words, he snorted coldly with disdain, and said, "The world is just making up rumors, and the words are not true. Do you believe this kind of lying to children?"

Xia Ziqi's lips trembled, and he said tremblingly: "I believe it! Why don't I believe it! This is not a rumor, it must be true!"

Sima Yi pointed at Xia Zi, and asked Yuan Shangyan curiously, "My lord, where did you find such a fool? You can be really stupid."

"Okay!" Yuan Shang waved his hand lightly, and said to Sima Yi indifferently: "Who is behind the scenes, we are just speculating here, I think, we might as well take a trip to Saibei this time. , find a way to get involved in this so-called alliance of alien races, and see what's going on here. If the races outside the Great Wall really have dissent towards my northern border, I'll come back immediately and dispatch troops to wipe them all out, by the way Bring out the one who stabbed the knife in the back!"

Xia Zi was taken aback when he heard the words, blinked his eyes and looked at Yuan Shang quietly for a long time, then suddenly said: "I want to go with you too!"

"You?" Yuan Shang turned his head and stared at him: "You come with me? Do you know who I am?"

Xia Zi glanced at his nose, without opening it, and said: "In the world, there is no one in the world who can be so young, so powerful, so powerful, and so respected in the north, except for the Hebei Master Yuan Gong, I really can't think of a second candidate."

"You are not too stupid!" Yuan Shang smiled lightly and said: "But since you can guess my identity, you should also know that my trip to Mobei is of great importance, and the people I bring with me, They must all be brave or wise, there will never be anyone who is slowing down, besides, you have only known me for a day, why do you let me take you there?"

"Just because...just because" Xia Zi hesitated for a long time, and finally slapped his thigh fiercely, and suddenly said: "Just because I am also a Han, I hope I can contribute to the stability and prosperity of my great Han Dynasty! "

Yuan Shang looked Xia Zi up and down a few times, and said with a smile: "Your intention is very admirable, but with your small body, if I were you, staying here honestly and not causing trouble would be a disservice to my big Han Dynasty." greatest contribution."

"You..." Xia Zi pointed at Yuan Shang angrily, shivered for a long time with his mouth curled up, then suddenly came to his senses, and said: "I have studied a lot of foreign languages ​​since I was a child, so I can be your interpreter here, thinking that I can take care of you! This way the head office right?"

Yuan Shang woke up after hearing the words, stared at Xia Zi closely for a long while, and finally nodded slowly.

Xia Zi's heart widened, and deep waves appeared in his thoughts.

He wanted to go to Mobei with Yuan Shang this time, not because of a whim, but because Sima Yi's just words deeply stimulated him.

For his father Cao Cao, for his father's reputation, to prove that the father he knows in his heart is the real him!He, Cao Zhi, must go and see for himself!Go and see if my father has become a villain who does everything he can, and still maintains the original glory of thinking about the country.

************************
Central Plains Xudu, Sikong Mansion.

"My lord, my lord! Good news, good news!" Xu Chu rushed into Cao Cao's study with an excited look on his face, and his every move contained endless joy.

Cao Cao looked haggard, and was sitting on the main seat rubbing his temples to rest his mind. Hearing this, he hurriedly looked up and saw Xu Chu coming in. He hurriedly asked, "What good news, but Zhi'er was found?"

Xu Chu was stunned, shook his head heavily, and said, "The news about the Fourth Young Master is still under investigation, and the good news from my subordinates came from Hebei! My lord, that boy Yuan Shang is in trouble!"

"Oh?" Cao Cao was refreshed when he heard the words, and said, "What's going on?"

Xu Chu then presented a pair of bamboo slips in his hand, Cao Cao quickly grabbed them, unfolded them, and began to read them carefully. Unexpectedly, after reading, his complexion became darker and darker, and his eyes became brighter.

Xu Chu was unaware of the change in Cao Cao's face, and he said to himself excitedly: "This disturbance among the tribes in Mobei will inevitably cause chaos on the border of the North, and there must be an omission in the border of the Yuan family, so we must mobilize our troops." Competing with different tribes, now that two tigers are fighting, it is our time to gain. My lord, even I can see that this is a godsend opportunity. We only need to gather troops at the border, assess the situation, and be ready to fight at any time. Just wait until Yuan Shang and the alien barbarians in Saibei are in an inextricable fight, then they can take advantage of the chaos and attack directly to Yecheng."

"fart!"

Before he finished speaking, he listened to Cao Cao scolding him all his life, but saw the bamboo slips that had been reported flew out of his hands, and hit Xu Chu's spirit with a "clang".
