The alliance team sent by Cao Cao came to Wancheng in a mighty way. There were two riders walking side by side in front of dozens of carriages. One of them turned out to be a boy with a childish face.

This young man is Cao Pi. Cao Pi learned to shoot archery at the age of six and ride horses at the age of eight. Since he was ten, he has followed his father to fight north and south. After nearly two years of hardship, his mind has matured, as if he is adults.

Moreover, this is not the first time he has come to Nanyang. The last time he came to Nanyang was when he followed his father to fight for Zhang Xiu in the south. Zhang Xiu surrendered first and then rebelled, and his brothers Cao Ang and Cao Anmin were both broken here, and Dian Wei also died at the hands of Zhang Xiu. Cao Pi, who was only ten years old, took advantage of the chaos to escape on a horse and saved his life by chance.

Cao Pi walked on the official road and saw a group of children flying kites on the ridge of the field. The adults at home were cleaning weeds in the fields. Several of them seemed to be hungry. They squatted among the fields and ate mixed noodles and watched the children play with a smile.

Looking at Nanyang County, which had already changed greatly, Cao Pi sighed: "Mr. Wen Ruo, under Chen Mang's rule, it seems that he is much better than us."

Xun Yu whistled and said, "It's not just that much better than us, but even before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Yu had never seen such a prosperous scene. When it comes to people's livelihood, I'm afraid there is no one in the world who can compare with Chen Farao."

Upon hearing this, Cao Pi frowned and said, "I don't know if it's a blessing or a disaster when he formed an alliance with Chen Mang this time."

Xun Yu smiled and said, "Young Master, don't worry. Chen Mang is far away from Hebei. Even if we distribute the city we captured from Yuan Shao to him, he is alone and the food and grass are cut off? How can he defend it? In the end, it is just a thing in the lord's bag."

Cao Pi was still frowning? He said, "If we can think of this, then Chen Mang must have thought of it too? Will he form an alliance with us?"

Xun Yu said: "Now Yuan Shao is powerful? If we are defeated, Yuan Shao will own half of the land of the Han Dynasty? Then he will bring up a million troops, and there will be no one in the world. There will be no end to the collapse of the nest? Chen Mang will not understand this principle."

"Please rest assured, young master? The alliance is absolutely sure. The main purpose of our trip is to try our best to win the interests of the lord, and don't let Chen Mang ask for a price all the time."

Cao Pi suddenly realized it and bowed, "So? I rely on the sir."

Xun Yu shook his feather fan in his chest and led the team to Wancheng. After passing through the city gate, he was taken to a palace to meet Chen Mang.

On the hall? Chen Mang sat upright on the sofa, playing with a blue and white porcelain wine glass that had just been successfully fired the day before yesterday? Zhuge Liang stood by shaking his feather fan, and two hundred knives and axe soldiers were standing on both sides of the hall. The big knife in his hand flashed coldly, and the murderous intent in the hall was awe-inspiring.

After Cao Pi came in, his scalp suddenly became numb. He looked at Xun Yu with a look of surprise and suspicion.

Is this what you said to be foolproof?!

Xun Yu also felt cold on his back? He looked incredible and said to Chen Mang in panic: "Chen, Mr. Chen, what is this? The two countries are fighting troops but not killing the envoys, let alone we are coming to form an alliance!"

Looking at Xun Yu and Cao Pi who were approaching, Chen Mang played with the porcelain wine glass in his hand and said, "It's nothing else. I just want to practice throwing the cup as a sign. When the wine glass in my hand lands, two hundred knives and axes will rush forward to see if it can cut you into meat paste."

Zhuge Liang said helplessly: "Lord, your exercise is simply not feasible. It takes thousands of knives to chop a piece of pork into meat paste, let alone two living people?"

Chen Mang said to Xun Yu: "What do you think?"

Xun Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Kong Ming is right, Mr. Chen should not joke."

Chen Mang glanced at him lightly, then looked at Cao Pi and said, "That's not to let my two hundred swords and axes come in vain. This is how I heard that Cao Mengde is famous for his poetry. Cao Pi is influenced by you, and I must be able to recite poetry."

"I will limit you to write a poem within seven steps. If you can't write it, I will throw the cup as a horn and let the swords and axe players rush forward. If you can write it, we will continue to discuss the alliance."

Xun Yu looked at Chen Mang who was not playing according to common sense, and was sweating profusely and said to Cao Pi: "Young Master, Xun Yu's fortune and life, and lord's grand career, are all about you!"

Cao Pi nodded with his teeth, looked at Chen Mang, who held the wine glass on the sofa with a grief and anger, and took a step forward, who could throw the glass at any time.

After three steps, Cao Pi opened his mouth and recited a poem: "There are floating clouds in the northwest, like a car hood. Unfortunately, I didn't meet them at the time, so I met the wind. I went southeast and went to Nanyang. Nanyang is not my hometown, so how can I stay for a long time? I will not leave it again. I will always fear others."

After seven steps, Cao Pi just finished reciting a poem.

Seeing that he had actually written a poem, Chen Mang was stunned and said to Zhuge Liang: "What does this poem mean? Your lord, I am a little scholar. Kong Ming, please explain it."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Lord, this poem says that he lives in a foreign land as a guest and is afraid of being bullied."

Chen Mang stood up with anger and picked up the wine glass and threw it on the ground: "Who is so bold that he dares to bully my nephew Cao Pi! Let me know that he must have skinned him!"

With a sound of collision, the blue and white porcelain wine glass shattered all over the ground. Seeing this, the two hundred swords and axes immediately rushed forward and rushed towards Cao Pi and Xun Yu!

Cao Pi widened his eyes, looked at the knife and axe driver who was rushing towards him, and closed his eyes in despair.

In an instant, Cao Pi and Xun Yu were covered in great men...

After a while, Chen Mang personally pulled Cao Pi, who was rolling his eyes from the crowd, smiled and gave him a seat, while saying, "My subordinates are too stupid, don't mind. But a nephew is very talented. I think you are still young and shouldn't have a word yet. How about my uncle picking you up one?"

Cao Pi took a few breaths and finally recovered. He smiled and said, "The elders give me, I dare not refuse..."

Chen Mang thought for a moment and spoke solemnly: "Your father lives in the court and becomes the prime minister. In the future, you will call Cao Zhongchu."

Cao Pi stood up and said, "I thank Mr. Chen for giving me the name! Mr. Chen, you and my family have formed an alliance to fight against Yuan..."

Chen Mang smiled and said, "Then Yuan Shao is a traitor, a traitor, an old thief. Even if Meng De doesn't mention this matter, his family will be incompatible with the Yuan thief! But Mang and the Yuan thief are separated from the mountains and seas, even if they are willing to help each other, they can only sigh."

Xun Yu got up from the ground in disheveled clothes and gasped, "Don't make things difficult for you, Prime Minister Cao has something to say first... You can use Qingzhou to aisle with Chen Gong and send troops from the East China Sea... to fight against Yuan's thieves! In addition, Prime Minister Cao has requested an order and appointed Duke Chen as the Grand Governor of Henan Road, and in charge of Nanyang, Jiangxia, Huainan, Xuzhou and other places."
