Chapter 287 Angelica Hidden Mountain Forest

"Hmm?"

Hearing Ma Yu's words, Xun Wenruo's face was silent. If one day Cao Cao really wanted to force the emperor to give up his seat, how should he choose? Will he be as indifferent as he is today?

This problem suddenly puzzled Xun Wenruo. Xun Wenruo frowned and bowed his head and meditated. At this time, he really didn't know what he would do one day. Is it against Cao Cao Cao's will like today, or stand up against Cao Cao.

Over the years, he has been telling himself that when Cao Cao really helped the emperor unify the world, Cao Cao may return the power in his hand to the emperor. It is also the same idea to support him to work diligently. Today, when he suddenly heard Ma Yan's inquiry, Xun Wenruo was in a trance. It was not until then that he found that he had fallen so deeply that he couldn't help it.

At this time, he could not say that Cao Cao would return the power of the emperor, because that was a fluke in his heart. According to what Cao Cao has done now, Cao Cao will not return the power of the emperor in the future.

The emperor and Cao Cao are already in the same situation, and they can't tolerate each other at all.

Xun Wenruo looked up and looked at the horse that had stopped eating and drinking. He looked at his horse and meditated, "If it's true that one day, I will go back to the mountains and forests and don't care about the world."

"Oh, Mr. Wen Ruo really thinks that he can still be able to retire on that day. Mr. Wen Ruo should know exactly what kind of personality Cao Mengde is. How can such a person make him return to the mountains, and the whole Xu is not only Mr. Xu who thinks so. How should Cao Mengde deal with him at that time? "Are you guys?" Ma Yu shook his head.

The authorities are fascinated by the onlookers. Xun Wenruo's situation at this time, even if he sees it clearly, there are not a few officials who have such thoughts. These people are not that they do not help the emperor, but that the current power of the emperor is too weak, and even Cao Cao is not qualified to fight. Ma Wei believes that if the emperor has a little strength to fight against Cao Cao, at least nearly half of the officials in Xudu will choose to support the emperor.

Now these people work for Cao Cao, whether it is for self-insurre protection, for the interests of the family, or for the fluke in their hearts. This will only get deeper and deeper. How can Cao Cao's suspicious personality leave these people's control?

For the current situation in Xudu, although Ma Wei did not see it very clearly, Pang Degong could see it clearly. A large part of Cao Cao's so many officials went for the name of the emperor. Since he entered the door of Pound, Pang De did not teach Ma Qian the art of war at the beginning, but taught him to observe the situation first. It is useless to be able to see the situation clearly even if he is familiar with the art of war.

"This..." Xun Wenruo hesitated and smiled bitterly. He knew that Ma Qian was right. Once Cao Cao was really powerful, he couldn't help him.

Thinking of Xun Wenruo looked at Ma Wei in surprise, although Xu Du's situation was not complicated and difficult to distinguish, the teenager in front of him was just a teenager more than ten years old, and he was still in Xiangyang, which was thousands of miles away. How did he know the situation of Xu Du.

"Ha ha, this is the teacher's analysis, and the juniors don't have this ability." Seeing that Xun Wenruo's eyes were puzzled, Ma Qian hurriedly shook his head. These things are what he usually said when he heard Pound and others talking, not what he thought of.

"Ha ha, it's a little early to talk about these things. Don't say anything. The deputy envoy didn't come to my house today for this matter, did he? Xun Wenruo smiled and knew in his heart that Xu Du's situation could not be hidden from Pang Degong and others, but he didn't believe that Ma Qian came to say these words to him today.

"Mr. Wen Ruo is right. I came here today to use the opposite plan to alienate the relationship between Mr. Wen Ruo and Cao Mengde. Before that, I went to Langzhong Yang Xiu's house first. Just now, Langzhong Yang Xiu rolled and crawled to Cao Cao's house." Ma Yu hummed as he delivered food to his mouth.

"Hahaha..." Xun Wenruo laughed. There was no one who came to use the alienation method like Ma Jian.

Seeing that Xun Wenruo was like this, Ma Yan shook his head and did not say anything. He had no intention to come to alienate Xun Wenruo. According to Xun Wenruo's intelligence, how could he easily fall into his scheme? Moreover, Cao Cao's trust in Xun Wenruo and others is not good at all that these small means can be separated.

Whether it is Guo Jia or Xun Wenruo, he has a very high status in Cao Cao's heart. Even if he uses the method in Yang Xiu's mansion, it has no effect at all.

Half an hour later, Ma Qian left Xun Wenruo's house full of wine and food, and at the same time, the people sent by Cao Cao immediately invited Xun Wenruo to Cao Cao's house.

When Cao Cao received the news that Ma Yan went to Xun Wenruo's house, he immediately affirmed that Ma Yan was a method of alienation, and even his previous suspicion of Yang Xiu had eased a lot. However, in spite of this, he still wanted to know what happened when Ma Yan went to Xun Wenruo's house, and whether he would send a bamboo slip without any handwriting, just like going to Yang Xiu's house.

"See Lord." Xun Wenruo's face was as usual, and he was not surprised at all about Cao Cao's behavior. Cao Cao was extremely suspicious. Even if it was a clue, he would doubt it, not to mention that Ma Qian had stayed in his house for a long time. Such a long time is enough for Cao Cao to have some doubts in his heart.

"I heard that the deputy envoy of Jingzhou went to your house?" Cao Cao asked directly.

"Yes, Ma Yu, the deputy envoy of Jingzhou, went to the lower house and used food in the house before leaving." Xun Wenruo did not hide it. With Cao Cao's eyes and ears, the whole Xu was under his surveillance, which would only make him more suspicious.

"Has the horse ever left bamboo slips?" Cao Cao asked.

"Bamboo slips? I have never seen any bamboo slips. The horse just stayed in the house for a period of time and left, leaving no bamboo slips. Xun Wenruo said doubtfully.

"Oh? Didn't you leave any bamboo slips?" This time, Cao Cao was a little surprised. Could it be that the horse forgot that he left bamboo slips in Yang Xiu's house, but there was nothing left in Xun Wenruo's house, which really made him unable to figure it out.

At this time, Cao Cao thought of Yang Xiu's expression when he came in with bamboo slips. He didn't know what to do. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that Yang Xiu was lying.

"Lord, did Ma Qian leave bamboo slips in Yang Langzhong's house?" Xun Wenruo couldn't help asking when he thought that Ma Yan said that he had just come out of Yang Xiu's house.

"Huh? How do you know that? Cao Cao asked with a frown. Has the power of the Xun clan developed to this extent? The whole Xudu is under the supervision of the Xun family.

"Ha ha, the lord forgot that as soon as the horse came out of Yang Langzhong's mansion, he went to his mansion." Xun Wenruo smiled and said.

"Hmm. Ma Yan left a blank bamboo slip in Yang Xiu's house. Do you think Yang Xiu's value is not to believe it? Is this Ma Yan's alienation plan? Cao Cao didn't care. Ma Yu's whereabouts are not a secret in Xu. After all, Ma Yu's identity is special, and the family with a little strength will pay close attention to the movements of the three people.

"It's not easy to judge at this time, but Yang Langzhong has never been in contact with Jingzhou. How can he do anything to collude with Jingzhou? This is probably Jingzhou's alienation plan, but it is not sure that Yang Langzhong really has nothing to do with this matter. The lord can order someone to monitor his behavior, and it is natural to put him idle."

Although he knew that Yang Xiu was wronged, and Ma Yan did use the method of alienation, since Cao Cao had doubts in his heart, no matter how he defended Yang Xiu, he could not rule out Cao Cao's suspicion in his heart, and even it may be self-defeating, and even he himself may become the object of Cao Cao's suspicion.

"Well, the three people of Song Zhongzi are really not worry-free. Not only did Ma Yan visit Yang Langzhong and you, but also Xin Chang visited several people one after another. Although Xin Chang visited the official position is not big, the impact will be great if there is a mistake." With that, Cao Cao handed the bamboo slip on the table to Xun Wenruo. What was recorded on the bamboo slip was the situation of Xin Chang and the people visited by Ma Yu.

Xun Wenruo took over the bamboo slips, and his face became solemn just by looking at them. Except for him and Yang Xiu, the other people above are people with small official positions, but they have certain privileges in their hands.

It's like the official who manages the cell. If he opens the cell and releases the prisoners in the prison when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are fighting, the impact will be not small, and even the whole Xu may fall into a short-term turmoil. The weapons made by the blacksmith are usually sent to the army. If all these weapons are tamped, they will be cut off at the time of the battle, and lightly shake the heart of the army. The heavy ones may even affect the victory or defeat of the battle.

Moreover, Xun Wenruo also found that Xin Chang and Ma Wei seemed to have discussed it for a long time. The people Ma Wei visited were people with some status and power in Xu Du. Zhu Jian recorded that after Ma Wei left his mansion, he went to the residence of his son-in-law Du Xi. However, Xin Chang visited all the junior officials with low official positions.

"I have ordered people to look at the several officials visited by Xin Chang, but Xin Chang and Ma Yan obviously want to make trouble in Xudu. If they go on, whether it's true or false, maybe they will really make some trouble for them. If there is any way?" Cao Cao shook his head.

Hearing that Cao Cao had looked at the people on the bamboo slips, Xun Wenruo's heart sank. Cao Cao did this exactly what Ma Yu and others thought.

"Since the lord has decided to seal Liu Qi's fief in Hanzhong, why didn't Song Zhongzi and others leave Xudu and return to Jingzhou as soon as possible? Although the situation in Xudu is calm, it is secretly surging. If Ma Yan and others are allowed to make such trouble, won't the officials in Xudu be even more popular? Move."

Some officials in Xu Du secretly told about Yuan Shao. If Xun Wen had also heard about it, if Jingzhou intervened, Cao Cao's situation would be more difficult.

[Today's defense, everyone should wish me not to be scolded by the teacher!]
