Fearing that his lord might impulsively attack Yanmen Pass, Chen Qun quickly explained on Lü Bu's behalf: "My lord has misunderstood. Perhaps Lü Bu truly cannot make decisions for his own daughter."
Chapter 864 The Clever Lü Lingqi
He told Cao Cao about the situation of Lü Lingqi that he had learned in Jiuyuan, and casually mentioned Lin Zhu and the Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River.
Cao Cao was also very interested in the beautiful writing. As he put the rice back into his bowl, he said, "There is someone whose literary talent surpasses that of my son." He turned to Cao Zhi and said, "Zijian, read it to me."
Cao Zhi accepted the order and recited the entire Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River.
Cao Cao listened with rapt attention. "Hmm, I feel like I've heard this somewhere before." He thought for a moment, his mind working overtime.
"Ugh~" His head started to ache from overworking his brain. 'No, I can't think too much, my headache is acting up again.'
"Father!" Cao Zhi rushed forward to express his concern.
Cao Cao reached out his hand and said, "It's nothing, just an old ailment." He then asked, "Did you copy the article down?"
He knew that his son had a photographic memory and would never miss a good article.
Cao Zhi was slightly embarrassed, but he still took out the brocade and handed it over, saying, "Please take a look, Father."
Cao Cao took it, examined it carefully for a moment, and then said, "It is quite similar to your style, Zijian."
Cao Zhi said, "But it was not written by me."
"I know." Cao Cao nodded. After reading it through completely, his headache was relieved a lot. Then he said, "This man's talent is no less than that of Kong Zhang. Have you met this man?"
Cao Zhi replied, "I have seen you."
Cao Cao continued, "How is it?"
Cao Zhi paused for a moment, considered his words, and then said, "He is astonishingly handsome."
"Oh!" Cao Cao's interest was piqued. "What proof do you have?"
After pondering deeply, Cao Zhi pointed to the "Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River" in Cao Cao's hand and said, "This ode can serve as proof."
"It was actually written by a woman." Cao Cao's interest grew even stronger.
Cao Zhi shook his head, "He is not a woman, but a handsome man."
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Such a strange thing has happened." He looked at Chen Qun and Yang Xiu.
Chen Qun said, "What you say is absolutely correct, young master."
Yang Xiu added, "This person lives in Lü Bu's house and has a close relationship with Lü Lingqi."
Cao Cao frowned and asked, "Does Lü Bu know about this?"
Chen Qun shook his head and said, "This subordinate does not know."
Cao Zhi added, "I believe that Marquis Wen should know this."
Cao Cao glanced at Cao Zhi, "That seems to be the case, but how do we reclaim Yanmen Pass?"
The three remained silent.
Cao Cao didn't expect them to answer, and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, you can go back now."
On the other hand, after being reprimanded by Lin Zhu, Lü Lingqi took three days to recover before daring to come out and meet people.
Then he was teased by the two Qiaos.
Xiao Qiao asked, "Lingqi, what exactly happened that night?"
Lu Lingqi blushed and said, "How about I take you to the little bamboo house tonight so you can experience it too?"
Xiao Qiao blushed, but didn't say anything in refusal.
This surprised Lü Lingqi. "No, you actually took me seriously? Dream on."
Xiao Qiao became embarrassed and annoyed, and said to Da Qiao beside her, "Sister, help me catch her."
"Tch, just the two of you? I'll give you a handicap."
Lu Lingqi looked disdainful and started playfully fighting with the two Qiaos in the room.
After playing around, she found Lin Zhu and said, "Little Zhu, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. I have to go and teach Cao Cao a lesson."
Lin Zhu reached out and touched Lü Lingqi's forehead. "You don't have a fever, so why did you go looking for trouble with Cao Cao?"
Lu Lingqi snorted coldly, "If he wants to take Yanmen Pass, let him take it. Why make Cao Zhi come and propose marriage? Doesn't Cao Cao like Yan Ying? You can transform into Yan Ying's appearance to meet him, and then... hehehe!"
She had a mischievous grin on her face.
"You're crazy." Lin Zhu tapped Lü Lingqi on the head. "How could you even come up with such a terrible idea?"
"Just agree already." Lü Lingqi grabbed Lin Zhu's arm and shook it violently, making the ground tremble.
But Lin Zhu was no longer the naive man she once was. This little bit of effort couldn't sway him. She withdrew her hand and said, "You're overthinking it. How could I possibly do something like this?"
"You really won't help?" Lü Lingqi's expression changed.
Lin Zhu shook his head. "No way."
Lu Lingqi threatened, "Then I'll talk about what happened that night in the group chat."
"Whatever." Lin Zhu was like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
Lu Lingqi looked at Lin Zhu for a while, and seeing that he showed no sign of backing down, she could only compromise and said, "Then why don't you try to mess with Cao Cao in another way? Anyway, he has already caused trouble for us, so it won't hurt for us to teach him a lesson. Don't you really want to mess with him?"
To be honest, Lin Zhu was a little tempted.
"Then let's play a trick on him."
Life is about finding some fun.
"Let's go, let's take Lady Yuegui with us this time. I heard that Cao Cao is preparing to march south now, so it will be harder to cause trouble once he's in the military camp."
Lu Lingqi couldn't wait any longer, so she grabbed Lin Zhu's hand and went to find Yuegui.
Upon hearing this, Yuegui immediately agreed. She was also the kind of person who thrived on chaos, saying, "Let's hurry up and go."
This time, they didn't bring Chang'e with them, only Lin Zhu, Lü Lingqi, and Yuegui. After arriving at the South Heavenly Gate, they were directly teleported to Xuchang.
Standing on the main street of Xuchang, Lü Lingqi suddenly had a whimsical idea: "Why don't we send Liu Xie to my father's place?"
Lin Zhu was stunned for a moment, "You really are your father's good daughter!"
This is no longer just playing a trick; it's about to tear the sky out of the Han Dynasty!
If Liu Xie were to disappear, Cao Cao would indeed be in a panic, but Lü Bu would be in an even greater panic.
“I think Lingqi’s idea is great, why don’t we give it a try?” Yuegui bounced on Linzhu’s shoulder.
Lin Zhu shook his head, "The consequences are too great; Lü Bu cannot bear them."
"It's alright, we can just send it back to Cao Cao later. We're not going to kill him, so I'll take responsibility for any problems." Yuegui was very expectant.
"Little Bamboo, you're not chickening out, are you?" Lu Lingqi looked at Lin Zhu with a strange expression.
Lin Zhu said, "Goading won't work. But since you want to play this big, I'll play along."
That very night, Lin Zhu found a loophole in the imperial city's array, sneaked inside, and found Liu Xie, who was feeling melancholy.
Liu Xie was quite surprised by Lin Zhu's appearance. "Who are you, and why are you here?"
Under the moonlight, Liu Xie saw the appearances of Lin Zhu and Lü Lingqi, but only stared blankly for a moment.
His greatest desire now is to seize power back from Cao Cao; he has little interest in personal matters.
Lu Lingqi said, "We're here to take you away. So, do you want to leave this awful place?"
Liu Xie said, "You were sent by Prime Minister Cao to test me, weren't you?" He sneered, "Don't waste your time. If you want my life, come and take it."
Lu Lingqi looked at Lin Zhu and said, "What if he's a little slow-witted?"
"You came up with the idea, so you can do it yourself. I'm just responsible for taking you to the palace. Luckily, it's not in Luoyang, so the pressure of the auspicious energy is much less here."
Chapter 865 Liu Xie's Request
Lin Zhu looked up and saw the red dragon hovering in the air, now appearing extremely small.
A large portion of this fortune was diverted to the south.
The red dragon in Xuchang is being suppressed by a yellow coiled dragon, which is the condensation of Cao Cao's fortune.
Upon hearing Lin Zhu's words, Liu Xie exclaimed in surprise, "Are you immortals?"
Lü Lingqi snorted, "You're only just realizing it?"
Liu Xie snorted coldly, "I do not need your help." He was very wary of immortals, but for some reason.
“That’s not up to you,” Lü Lingqi said. “Little Bamboo, use the Hidden Universe in Your Sleeve to take him away.”
Lin Zhu shook her head. "He's already pitiful enough. You're making things difficult for him."
Lu Lingqi thought about it and realized that it was true; she had been being unreasonable. Then, looking at Liu Xie apologetically, she said, "I'm sorry, I didn't consider your feelings."
Liu Xie was taken aback. These three immortals seemed a bit different; they weren't as aloof as he thought.
But when he heard them say that he was pitiful, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "I am indeed a pitiful person. Although this place is called the Imperial Palace, it is a birdcage, and I am the bird in the cage."
Yuegui looked at him and said, "Why don't we take you to Liu Bei? He should treat you very well."
"Imperial Uncle?" Liu Xie thought for a moment. "He is indeed a good person, but his condition is not very good at the moment. I should not be a burden to him. Perhaps he is the hope for the future of our Han Dynasty."
“Your judgment is quite accurate.” Lin Zhu smiled. “We have no connection with Cao Cao.” He pointed to Lü Lingqi. “This is Lü Bu’s daughter. Cao Cao offended her before, so she wanted to play a trick on him. She came up with a bad idea to take you to Yanmen Pass to make Cao Cao anxious. Now it seems that this is a bit disrespectful to you.”
"Sorry!" Lü Lingqi apologized again, then glared at Lin Zhu.
Liu Xie chuckled, "Miss Lü is indeed naive and romantic; I envy you. Sometimes I think that perhaps being born into an ordinary family would be a blessing."
"Tch!" Laurel sneered, "Then I'll show you what a typical family's situation is like?"
A mysterious mirror appeared before Liu Xie. Whether it was Dongsheng Shenzhou, Nanzhanbuzhou, Xiniuhezhou or Beijuluzhou, most people lived a precarious existence.
Although there is enough food, there is no sense of security; people don't know when they will die.
This left Liu Xie completely stunned.
"If you had been born into an ordinary family, I don't know if you would have lived to this age."
Laurel's words were piercing to the heart.
