"Everyone, please say something... People say that meeting is fate, and we met twice, and this fate is amazing. [... We have exposed the previous grudges and decided that."

Under the strange eyes of the Black Feather Crows, Cao Cao was so verbally speaking that they had no temper at all.

In fact, there was no hatred between Cao Cao and the Black Feather Crows. Even Cao Cao had a bag of jerky affection for the Black Feather Crows. The bad thing was that Cao Cao was a man with a bad nature. Even if he was kind, he would not give him kindness, and insisted on finding some awkwardness for the other party. So, he was "hateful" by the Black Feather Crows. When he thought of Cao Cao laughing in the Mercedes-Benz carriage and mocking them as idiots, the black feather crows were so angry that they were itchy.

However, on the other hand, it can be seen from this that Cao Cao is still quite a bachelor's work. Seeing that he could not escape, he simply took the initiative to come to Zhang Huang and others to visit him. Then he said a lot of good words, and the black-feathered crows who wanted to give Cao Cao some color could not speak.

"Come on, let's do it." Seeing Cao Cao, the future overlord of the Central Plains, smiling and pleasing, Zhang Huang was amused, and shook his head to stop Cao Cao from continuing to hype. Seeing Zhang Huang's statement like this, the other black-feathered crows naturally couldn't mention the things that happened a few days ago. After snorting hard at Cao Cao, the matter was revealed.

"Didn't Brother Cao go to Chenliu? Why did he come here? He is still with King Chen?" After a joke, Zhang Huang finally asked about the doubts in his heart.

Cao Cao did not answer Zhang Huang at the first time, but glanced at the powerful and powerful man Xiahou Dun beside him with a strange expression. This handsome Xiahou family, who was probably even full of muscles, greeted Li Tong, Chen Dao, Zang Ba and Taishi Ci in a friendly manner, and then stood beside Cao Cao again, as if nothing had happened.

"Yuan Rang, go to Meng Zhuo." Cao Cao waved at Xiahou Dun, and Meng Zhuo in his mouth pointed to Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, and Zhang Mengzhuo.

Xiahou Dun seemed not to understand Cao Cao's profound meaning, and he looked confused and said in a silly voice, "Of course I followed Meng De, what should I do with Zhang Mengzhuo?"

[This stupid guy!]

Cao Cao felt itchy in his heart, but his face showed a bit of solemnity, and he said in a deep voice, "Yuan Rang, you have to know that the world is not very stable today. With His Highness King Chen and Prefect Zhang there, you naturally have to put the overall situation first... Be obedient, go and protect His Highness King Chen and Prefect Zhang."

"I won't go!" Xiahou Dun looked at the expression of "King Chen and Zhang Miao's life and death."

Cao Cao was so angry that he knew the reason and moved him with emotion. After a long time of persuasion, he persuaded Xiahou Dun a little.

"Then...what should you do here Mengde?"

Seeing that Xiahou Dun finally let go, Cao Cao hugged Zhang Huang's shoulder and said with a smile, "There are brothers Zhang, Li Tong, Chen Dao and other brothers of the Black Feather Crow here. Isn't it enough to protect Cao? In contrast, whether it is King Chen or Zhang Mengzhuo, even if one of them is damaged, it will cause storms in my Yuzhou. Even the reputation of my Cao family and Xiahou family will be damaged... Others will say that it is not the Cao family and Xiahou family that follow? Why would His Highness Chen and Zhang Taishou take risks?" In the end, Cao Cao almost looked worried about the reputation of the family. Xiahou Dun was stunned.

"This...then, then I'm going." After entrusting Cao Cao to Zhang Huang and others, Xiahou Dun hurried to Liu Chong, King Chen and Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu.

Looking at Xiahou Dun's departure back, Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief with relief. The sorrow on his original face suddenly disappeared.

"Brother Cao is so unkind that he bullies honest people like this..." Even though Zhang Huang knew the relationship between Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun, he couldn't help but shout for Xiahou Dun.

"Brother Zhang would not understand the pain in Cao's heart!" Cao Cao shook his head and sighed, "With such a foolish guy following him, that would be a great deal... Alas! Oh, Brother Zhang just called Cao Mengde's name."

Because he had seen Xiahou Dun reveal Cao Cao's "shorts" in front of outsiders, Zhang Huang could understand it and nodded out of sympathy.

"Where did you say just now?" As soon as Xiahou Dun left, no one came to reveal Cao Cao's shortcomings of "shortness". Cao Cao smiled brightly, touching the short beard on his chin and smiled, "Just Brother Zhang asked Cao why he came here just now, right? That's it. A few days ago, Cao's friend, Lord Zhang Miao, was appointed as the prefect of Chenliu by the court and sent a letter to inform Cao. Therefore, Cao took Yuan Rang to Chenliu and celebrated Meng Zhuojun."

"Well." Zhang Huang nodded because they met on Cao Cao's way to Chenliu.

"After arriving at Chenliu, Cao found out that the princes of Chen State, His Highness Liu Chong, King Chen, was also in Chenliu..."

"His Highness Chen personally congratulated the prefect Zhang?" Zhang Huang felt a little incredible when he heard this. After all, no matter how Zhang Miao was, he was only the prefect of Chenliu County, but only a minister. King Chen Liu Chong was a child of the royal family of Liu and a prince of Chen State. He was the identity of a "half-jun". It was impossible for Liu Chong to congratulate Zhang Miao in person? At most, he could send someone to bring some gifts to congratulate him and it would be over.

Unless Zhang Miao has a close relationship with King Chen and Liu Chong.

Thinking of this, Zhang Huang asked curiously, "Director Zhang and His Highness Chen?"

As if seeing through Zhang Huang's thoughts, Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand and explained, "Brother Zhang misunderstood. His Highness Chen didn't know that Brother Meng Zhuo was the new prefect of Chenliu, but he just happened to meet him... Brother Zhang knew that His Highness Chen always loved hunting?"

Zhang Huang shook his head and said truthfully: "Although I passed by the State of Chen a few days ago, I know very little about His Highness Chen."

Cao Cao nodded, and then showed a hint of admiration in his eyes, and introduced to Zhang Huang, "His Royal Highness Liu Chong, King Chen, is good at riding horses and shooting arrows, and is a bold and upright person. He is the best hero in Yuzhou..."

"Good at bows and arrows, you can hit every shot?" Taishi Ci showed an incredible look. You should know that his archery skills have always been praised by Li Tong and others, but even so, he still couldn't hit every shot. Taishi Ci didn't believe that a prince who was pampered and had such superb archery skills.

Cao Cao didn't care about being interrupted by Taishi Ci. On the contrary, he seemed to see something faintly from Taishi Ci's unconvinced eyes and laughed in a low voice. "Just the day before yesterday, Cao saw His Highness Chen pulling a three-stone iron-body strong bow and shooting a harrier with three hundred steps away, all hitting ten arrows." (Harrier, the ancient name for the target.)

"..." Taishi Ci was full of disbelief when she heard this. Although he could barely pull out the three-stone strong bow, he had to use this strong bow to shoot a target three hundred steps away, and even scored ten arrows. Taishi Ci obviously could not do such an incredible result, at least he could not do it in front of him.

Seeing that Taishi Ci was shocked, Cao Cao didn't care. After all, he was also shocked by the magical skills of King Chen and Liu Chong at that time.

"His Royal Highness Chen is different from the general pampered and noble family. He is good at martial arts by nature and always loves hunting. A few days ago, His Royal Highness Chen led his confidant, Luo Jun and Luo Xiaoyuan, and went out to hunt with more than a dozen guards. But he didn't expect that the weather would not be good. When His Royal Highness Chen chased a deer, it was snowing heavily and the wind blew. When the weather improved a little, His Royal Highness Chen realized that he had accidentally arrived in Chenliu County. After thinking about it,

His Highness Chen decided to visit Chenliu and his group of people. First, because the things brought by His Highness Chen and his group were all pulled at the hunting station, without money and food in their belly. Second, according to the criminal law of our Han Dynasty, the princes and kings were not allowed to leave their fiefdom without authorization... At this time, Brother Meng Zhuo first ascended the position of prefect, and the aristocratic families in the county came to congratulate him. He heard that His Highness Chen came to visit. Brother Meng Zhuo welcomed His Highness Chen into the residence..."

[So it was a coincidence...]

Zhang Huang nodded relievedly and asked in surprise, "Why are you here in Yingchuan Academy again?"

"It's because I learned that the students of Xiangyang Academy came to challenge Yingchuan Academy." Cao Cao said with a smile. "Although Yingchuan Academy is the family business of the Xun family, it cannot be denied that it is the pride of my Yuzhou. How can I put my pride in front of outsiders?... Among the children of the gentry who went to congratulate Brother Meng Zhuo on this matter, one of them learned about this. During the banquet, he accidentally mentioned it. After hearing this, His Highness Chen and Brother Meng Zhuo put down their glasses and rushed over, saying that they wanted to stand up for Yingchuan Academy to cheer!"

"So that's it..." After Cao Cao's explanation, Zhang Huang finally understood why King Chen Liu Chong and Chen Liu's prefect Zhang Miao would bring a large group of people to Yingchuan Academy to mobilize a large number of people, and they were cheering for Yingchuan Academy. Thinking about it, it was true that Chen Liu, Yingchuan and the third brother of Chen State were already close together. Under the same hatred of the enemy, they would never allow the students of Xiangyang Academy to show off their power here.

Of course, this is the idea of ​​King Chen Liu Chong, Zhang Miao, Cao Cao and others. In Zhang Huang's opinion, Xiangyang Academy is probably not the opponent of Yingchuan Academy in this competition. To be honest, it is actually the same whether Cao Cao and others come or not.

"Are those guests from Lord Zhang's mansion?" Zhang Huang pointed to the four great men who were receiving Xun Yu, Xun Chen, Xun Yue and Xun Yan in the distance and asked, "Is it famous?"

Cao Cao looked at Zhang Huang strangely, and then he remembered that Zhang Huang was not from the county, so he patiently introduced, "Did you see those two brothers? They are the Shu family members of Chenliukao City. The brother is Shu He, the courtesy name is Boying, the younger brother is Shu Shao, and the courtesy name is Zhongying. They are both well-educated people. The two brothers are in harmony and revitalizing the Shu family's foundation together has become a local talk."

[Not impression...]

Zhang Huang smacked his lips. He had no idea that the two brothers had served as chiefs of the land under Yuan Shu in history.

"Look at that." Cao Cao pointed to a burly man with a big and pursy look among the guests in the distance and whispered, "See? This person is Wei Zi. Don't look like he is big and thick, he is comparable to that guy Yuan Rang, but in fact, this person is a rich man in Xiangyi County, Chenliu County, and is not much inferior to the Cao family... Cao has been tight these days and is considering whether to contact this person, haha..."

(Weizi is the one who spent all his family to support him when Cao Cao raised his army. Later, he defected to Zhang Miao and died when Zhang Miao and Cao Cao fought with Dong Zhuo's army in Xingyang. There was a son named Wei Zhen, who Cao Cao regarded as a parent-child. He served as an official in Cao Wei and went to Sikong and Situ. After his death, he was posthumously named Taiwei.)

Zhang Huang looked at Cao Cao in surprise and said strangely, "You are the eldest son of the Cao family, and are you still short of money?"

Cao Cao showed a hint of embarrassment on his face and said embarrassedly, "That's Brother Zhang, I don't know the inside story of my Cao family. If my father is there, Cao will definitely not be short of money in his hands, but if my father is not there..."

Zhang Huang was moved when he heard this. Only then did he remember that when Cao Cao was in the Cao family, he was actually not valued by his elders. The reason was that this guy's behavior was too absurd. For example, the son of a minister in the court got married. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu and other young playboys from aristocratic families were idle and climbed the walls to the house at night just to see if the bride was beautiful and charming.

Of course, this is just a story recorded in unofficial history and cannot be used as a basis. However, with the character of Cao Cao and Cao Mengde in front of Zhang Huang, Zhang Huang is really hard to say whether this future overlord of the Central Plains really did such an embarrassing thing when he was young.

[Do you want to ask the person involved?]

After looking at Cao Cao, Zhang Huang couldn't help but feel moved. But then he gave up the idea. After all, from Xiahou Dun's incident, it can be seen that Cao Cao is more concerned about face. It would be fine if he didn't step on a landmine, but if he stepped on a landmine, it would be unworthy if he stepped on a landmine, because of such a small thing, Zhang Huang would feel that it would be unworthy no matter how he thought about it.

Cao Cao did not think as much as Zhang Huang thought, and he still happily introduced the guests to Zhang Huang: "The tall and thin one, standing alone by the side, do you see? This person is called Gao Jing. Because Cao had not told him yet, he did not know his name. However, this person is from Chenliu County... Don't look at the tall and thin "Gourd". He seems to be weak, but according to Yuan Rang, this person has good martial arts skills and literary talent. He can be called a talent with both civil and military skills, but he doesn't like to talk."

[Stupid gourd…]

Zhang Huang looked at Cao Cao in surprise, and then saw a young scholar who didn't speak not far beside Gao Jing. He asked curiously, "Who is that?"

Cao Cao looked up as Zhang Huang pointed, snorted, and said lightly, "Oh, Brother Zhang is talking about that person. The man is called Bian Rang, whose name is Wenli. He once visited Guo Tai and Guo Linzong with a boy named Xie Zhen in Runan, which is what we call "Guo Youdao", which is half of Master Guo's disciple."

Seeing Cao Cao's expression disapproval, Zhang Huang asked in confusion, "Brother Meng De seems to have some opinions about this person?"

"Hmph!" Cao Cao sneered and said lightly, "The opinion is not enough. He just thinks that 'it's hard to be qualified under the reputation'... I thought it was Jingwei and Zuoguo's talent, but he didn't want to only understand the verses and fu. It was really useless to waste his reputation!"

Zhang Huang was stunned, but he had never heard of Bian Rang anyway, and he had no friendship with him, so he was too lazy to pay attention to Cao Cao's sneering and sneering.

Cao Cao introduced dozens of guests with great reputation in Chenliu to Zhang Huang one by one. Some Zhang Huang had an impression, while others had no impression. When Cao Cao finished introducing one by one, the students of Xiangyang Academy and Yingchuan Academy on the stage also selected the victory or defeat in the competition of "rituals" in the competition, but there was no victory or defeat, and the draw was a draw.

[This is considered to give Xiangyang Academy a face?]

Zhang Huang pondered with malicious intentions, after all, he hadn't looked at the students on the stage carefully. But then again, even if he looked carefully, he might not be able to distinguish between the advantages and disadvantages.

But it wasn't that bad. The boring competition of "Li" finally passed. Xun Yu appeared on the stage again and told everyone next to the stand that they would wait for lunch to compete in the afternoon. Incredible that King Chen and Liu Chong became the chief examiner of this competition. In addition, the afternoon's "Shooting" competition is no longer limited to one student. Anyone who wants to join can sign up. It is said that the final winner can also get a special professor from King Chen and Liu Chong.

[That prince thinks that the competition with only a few people is not lively enough?]

When Zhang Huang learned about it, he was quite amused and crying. Suddenly, he seemed to have noticed something and turned to Li Tong, "Where is Ziyi?"

"I've signed up." Li Tonghun replied indifferently.

Zhang Huang was stunned for a while and said in surprise, "He is not from Yingchuan Academy, what name should I go to sign up?"

"Then what the prince said, anyone can sign up, and then Ziyi will sign up." Chen Dao shrugged and said.

Seeing Li Tong and Chen Dao with no concern for their expressions, Zhang Huang had a vague premonition, thinking that if Taishi Ci finally got the first name in the afternoon's "shooting" field, what should Yingchuan Academy and Xiangyang Academy do? After all, Zhang Huang still trusted Taishi Ci's archery skills very much.

"Suddenly there was a headache..." Zhang Huang sighed helplessly, attracting the laughter of Cao Cao beside him. At this time, Cao Cao understood why when he was embarrassed by the stupid Xiahou Dun, Zhang Huang would look at him with such a sympathetic look that seemed to have a deep understanding.

"This is fate... People should not fight against fate!" Cao Cao patted Zhang Huang on the shoulder, taking it as a comfort, but unfortunately Zhang Huang did not appreciate it at all.

The afternoon's 'shooting' field was much more formal than the morning's 'ceremonial' field. When Zhang Huang, Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and others went to have dinner, the servants of the Xun family had already erected a group of harriers, namely arching targets, in the open space on the east side of the high platform in front of the Confucius Temple.

In order to take care of the students' weak arm strength, the bow used in the competition was an ordinary bow of one stone, and the distance was only eighty steps. In Zhang Huang's opinion, Taishi Ci could win this level of competition with his eyes closed.

"In the first round, Baiya......the candidates lined up to prepare." Xun Yu's shout interrupted Zhang Huang's thoughts.

After taking a look at Taishi Ci, the only tall young man who stood out among the candidates in the row of "shot" fields, Zhang Huang sighed secretly, thinking in his heart how Zhang Huang should explain to Yingchuan Academy after Taishi Ci won. Think about it, how could they, who were originally a guest at Yingchuan Academy, do such a thing as a soldier to seize the leader?

However, to Zhang Huang's surprise, Taishi Ci lost in the first round of the 'shot' field, and lost completely, with a full five points that didn't even get a single point.

"How is that possible?!"

Zhang Huang couldn't hide his shock and shouted. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
