Chapter 538 Cao Cao can see Xu Gongming
Sima Yi also wanted to see how Wang Yi would ask for him after he politely rejected Wang Yi. As for Wang Yi's absence from begging him again? In Sima Yi's eyes, this was impossible. Wang Yi still knew a little bit. He usually would not give up what he wanted to do, even if there was only a little possibility, so everything was still in his own control.
Sure enough, Wang Yi stood up at this time, bowed to Sima Yi, and said, "I would like to ask the sir to go to Luoyang for the sake of the people in his hometown in Hanoi! Yi is very grateful for this!"
There is nothing I can do at this time, I can only play the emotional card. After all, Sima Yi is from Wen County, Hanoi, and Hanoi is his hometown.
For Wang Yi, what could he give Sima Yi? Let him be an official? People are not interested in those, so what else is there? He knows that he really has nothing to like. So he can only "understand reason and move it with emotion". Otherwise, what else can he do? Even if he abandons this old face, he has to let Sima Yi go to Luoyang for a trip.
After Sima Yi saw this, he knew that it was almost enough. He didn't mean to ask Wang Yi for whatever, but at this time he said, "Since the prefect is like this, Yi can't refuse anymore, so he left this matter to Yi! It's just that Cao Mengde's place in Luoyang..."
When Wang Yi saw Sima Yi, he finally let go. He was extremely happy and hurriedly said, "I understand that as long as the sir can go, Yi will be grateful! As for the others, it can only depend on God's will!"
Although Wang Yi was somewhat confident in Sima Yi, he also knew that this matter could not be 100% sure, so he naturally understood what Sima Yi meant, so he directly dispelled Sima Yi's concerns. That meaning, "It depends on people's plan, and it depends on heaven's success." Whether things can be accomplished can only depend on God's will.
Seeing that Wang Yi said this, Sima Yi also understood it, so he said: "In this way, please write a letter from the prefect and bring it to Luoyang from Yi. Please rest assured to the prefect!"
Wang Yi smiled, "Okay. Please sir!"
Sima Yi smiled and said nothing more. Wang Yi borrowed paper and pen from Sima Yi, wrote a letter of help from him, and handed it to Sima Yi.
After that, not long after, a crack was opened in the east city gate of Huai County, and a man came out of it and rode out. This man was Sima Yi. After he looked at Huai County, he set foot on the way to Luoyang.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sima Yi left Huai County and went to Luoyang. Ma Chao's scout really didn't find him. Of course, he couldn't know that Ma Chao, at least he didn't know for the time being. Sima Yi had been in Huai County before. If he had known this news, then he would have taken this place more seriously and would not be so in a hurry to take down the city.
So this is a situation where the enemy is dark and we are bright. Then, from night to day, Ma Chao continued to let the Liangzhou soldiers attack the city. I don’t know if it was because Wang Yi was in a clear mind or because of what. Anyway, he led the troops today to cause a lot of trouble to Ma Chao’s Liangzhou army. Ma Chao didn’t know what the situation was like in Wang Yi. It was not so fierce before, why did it explode at once? He really didn’t know much about this. Ma Chao really wouldn’t think of Sima Yi’s variable no matter what.

Xu Huang was brought back to Luoyang by Xiahou Dun and others. The five of them returned victoriously and came to serve Cao Cao.
The five people came to see Cao Cao, and Cheng Yu was there. When Cao Cao saw the expressions of several people, he smiled and said, "Hahaha, Yuan asked you all to come back, okay, okay. Let's sit down. It seems that you have gained a lot this time!"
After the five of them sat down, Xiahou Dun also smiled, "Lord, that's natural. Xu Gongming has been captured by us!"
Upon hearing this, Cao Cao's eyes shone brightly, "Hahaha, OK, so good. Thank you for your hard work! Come on, bring Xu Huang with you!"
"No!" The soldiers agreed and quickly brought Xu Huang over.
"Kneel down!"
The soldier shouted to Xu Huang, but Xu Huang had no reaction. The soldier was about to move at this time, but he was stopped by Cao Cao with a wave of his hand, "No need, retreat!"
"No!" The soldiers retreated.
Cao Cao glanced at Cheng Yu, and Cheng Yu nodded slightly to his lord, and Cao Cao would be impressed at once.
At this time, he stood up and pulled out his sword, Yitian Sword from the side, and then came to Xu Huang's approach. Xu Huang didn't understand what Cao Cao meant. Of course, he didn't think Cao Cao was going to kill him. If Cao Mengde wanted to kill him, would he still be brought back to Luoyang by Xiahou Dun and the others? But Cao Mengde, he is going to...
As a result, Cao Cao stroked the Yitian Sword on Xu Huang's tied rope, and the rope broke suddenly.
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Hahaha! I'm neglecting Gongming, please don't blame me!"
Xu Huang saw what was going on? Could it be that Cao Mengde wanted to let me go? But it wouldn't be like this. If this were the case, he would ask Xiahou Dun and the others to take me back to Luoyang to do something.
Xu Huang glanced at Cao Cao with his eyes and said angrily: "Cao Mengde, don't act like this, but you can't hide your tricks from me! You untied my rope, but I, Xu Gongming, don't appreciate it!"
When Xiahou Dun, who had already sat down, stood up and shouted, "Xu Gongming, you are so ungrateful! My lord is so courteous to you, but you are not only very rude, but you are so kind of attitude. I thought you, Xu Gongming, was a character before. But when I saw it, it was just like this, hahaha, it was ridiculous!"
Xiahou Dun was blunt and said whatever he thought. Xiahou Yuan next to him and Cao Ren opposite Xiahou Dun, after hearing his words, they understood Xiahou Dun's intention. Although Xiahou Dun's words were obviously talking about Xu Huang, of course, this is indeed the case, because his temper was not enough to easily endure Xu Huang's rudeness. However, Xiahou Dun's meaning was not just about Xu Huang's words, but in fact, it was more important to provoke Xu Huang.
This is the main purpose, and Cao Cao and Cheng Yu naturally understood it, and they both agreed in their hearts.
Although Xu Huang could hear what Xiahou Dun said clearly, he did not say anything to Xiahou Dun. Xiahou Dun's aggressive general seemed to have no effect on him. At this time, he just glanced at Cao Cao who was still in front of him, and then he smiled, "Aren't you afraid that I will hold you hostage and break out of the enemy camp?"
As a result, after Xu Huang finished speaking, Cao Cao, Cheng Yu, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren and others did not make any moves, but Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong and Cao Chun, all three of them stood up.
Cao Cao still laughed loudly and waved his hands to Xiahou Dun and others, "Gongming won't do this, don't worry, everyone! I don't know what I said right?"
The previous sentence was naturally said to Xiahou Dun and the others, and the last sentence was of course for Xu Huang. When Xu Huang heard it, he really had nothing to say for the time being. No matter what Cao Cao thought, Xu Huang could see that Cao Cao and Mengde really had the intention to gather himself in his tent. Regardless of whether the person was sincere or false, at least he did it, and he had untied his own rope first, which was said to trust himself, but he was actually satisfied.
Xu Huang glanced at Cao Cao without saying much. At this time, Cao Cao returned to his seat and said to Xu Huang: "Please sit down, don't be polite! Hahaha!" After that, he also sat down.
Xu Huang was not polite, so he found a place to sit down. Cao Cao looked at Xu Huang with a smile, and was indeed very satisfied.
Cao Cao asked, "I don't know what Gongming plans for the future?"
When Xu Huang heard this, he said, "What else can you do? If Cao Gong can let go, then he should be going back to his hometown to work hard!"
When Cao Cao and the others heard this, Cao Cao thought, do you Xu Gongming believe what he said? Go back to your hometown to work hard? Thank you Xu Gongming, you can think of it. If you Xu Gongming can always do this, then you have to admire you.
Cao Cao's face showed an expression of great regret, and he said, "How can Gongming be like this! Will Gongming be so burying this ability in the future? Is there really no other plan?"
When Xu Huang heard this, he shook his head slowly, thinking it was possible? He didn't want to do this, but what else can he do now? He works for the wise master. Is that wise master Cao Mengde? Maybe. Xu Huang hasn't considered Cao Cao, but it's just that many reasons that made it impossible for him to just listen to Cao Cao's words, and he bowed his head and worshipped his lord. He felt that he had not reached that level, and he was even more captured by Xiahou Dun and others, and he was still holding his breath.
At this time, Cao Cao looked at Cheng Yu and said, "You can say a few words." At this time, it's time to use his trump card, and he can't hide it anymore."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In fact, in Cheng Yu's thoughts, if Xu Gongming really couldn't surrender to his lord, then he could completely resolutely reject his lord, and directly said that he was not going to stay in Sili anymore, so why bother to say more about it here. So although Xu Gongming's attitude now seems a bit unfriendly, it doesn't mean that he was completely blocked by the other party, saying that it is impossible to serve his lord, but to say that the other party is not that firm attitude.
