Chapter 36: The Shape of Power

  Chapter 1 The Crown Prince

  However, since Jia Xu being the junior tutor of the crown prince did no harm. Cao Cao also stopped worrying about this doubt. After all, the matter of the crown prince was too trivial.

  Sesame and green beans, that's all.

  Even if it were the Son of Heaven, in Cao Cao's eyes, he would still be nothing more than a turtle in a jar.

  "Someone come, go and bring Jia Yu back."

  After thinking for a long time, Cao Cao raised his head and said to the outside of the door.

  "Agreed."

  The guard outside the door nodded and immediately went down.

  Cao Cao then turned to Chen Ken in front of him and said, "You go back first, pay close attention to the crown prince, if there's any wind or grass movement, report it to me."

  "Agreed."

  Chen Ken nodded in agreement and bid farewell before leaving.

  Jia Wenhe.

  After Chen Kun left, Cao Cao fell into deep thought again. As for Jia Xu, Cao Cao didn't have any particularly bad feelings towards him, even though it was Jia Xu who had joined forces with Zhang Yang to kill his eldest son Cao Ang.

  Although he was the one who lost the Han Dynasty's rivers and mountains.

  Because Jia Xu lost the Han Dynasty's rivers and mountains, he also gave Cao's family an opportunity to rise. Only then did today's glory appear. It can be said that Jia Xu indirectly forged the Cao family.

  There was no bad feeling, of course, nor was there a good one. However, Cao Cao still admired Jia Xu's ability and often kept him by his side as an advisor.

  However, that's all. Jia Xu's identity as the governor of Ji Province is a nominal position. After all, Ji Province was still under Yuan Shao's control, and as for the Golden Guard, it also overlapped with the duties of the Wei General.

  Jia Xian had no real power except for a few bodyguards around him.

  So, it's just a curtain staff. Also has plenty of time to teach the crown prince to learn. That is to be the Crown Prince Shao Fu.

  "Your humble servant pays his respects." Just then, Jia Xu walked in from outside and greeted him.

  Jia Yu was over thirty years old, with a slender and refined figure, somewhat elegant. Possibly due to his birth in the northwest, his skin tone was slightly darker, and he had a small beard on his chin.

  Jia Xu was originally thinking in the government office, and when he heard that Cao Cao had summoned him, he came.

  As for the reason for thinking, it is naturally the imperial edict of the crown prince's Shao Fu. At this moment, Jia Yu can be said to have a kind of inexplicable feeling of being shot while lying down.

  It's really strange for him to be made the Crown Prince's tutor.

  "Wen He is here." Cao Cao woke up from his deep thought and said with a smile.

  "Thank you, sir."

  Jia Xian bowed and thanked him.

  Immediately, under Cao Cao's order, Jia Xu sat opposite Cao Cao. As soon as he was seated, Cao Cao asked: "Can Wenhe guess why I have summoned you?"

  Jia Yu said, "As the young prince's junior guardian."

  "It is indeed the Crown Prince's Junior Guardian." Cao Cao nodded and said, pausing for a moment before continuing: "I wonder what Wenhe thinks about this matter?"

  "It's too sudden, I don't have a bottom in my heart." Jia Yu said honestly. Really can't figure out what's going on.

  "What about the position of Crown Prince's Junior Tutor?" Cao Cao heard this and showed a hint of disappointment, but he couldn't think of why either. He had already prepared himself for Jia Xu's answer, so he quickly asked again.

  "It's entirely up to you, Master Ming." Jia Yu said immediately.

  It can be seen from this that Jia Xu's approach to dealing with people is to kick all the balls to Cao Cao. Letting Cao Cao take charge of everything will not lead to mistakes and will not invite suspicion.

  This was Jia Xu's self-preserving tactic, who considered himself not an old minister but deeply understood the art of hiding one's capabilities.

  He couldn't get a clear answer, and instead pushed the matter of the Crown Prince's tutor back to him. When Cao Cao faced Jia Xu, he always had a feeling of having caught a fish that was slipping away from his grasp.

  Cao Cao felt quite helpless in his heart, but on the surface he said: "Since it's an imperial edict, then Wenhe will go and take up the position of Crown Prince's Junior Tutor."

  "Agreed."

  Jia Xu nodded in agreement, his expression unchanged, clearly Cao Cao's words had not caught him off guard.

  Things have been settled, and Jia Yu should also go back to prepare for the work that the young master's tutor should do. Therefore, he bid farewell and left soon after.

  Jia Xian

  In the study, Cao Cao looked in the direction that Jia Xu had left and shook his head. He immediately put this matter behind him, since things had already been decided, there would be no further changes.

  …………

  The Crown Prince's Palace, inside the main hall.

  Liu Feng knelt on the upper seat, while Zhao Yun stood solemnly below. At this moment, Zhao Yun was wearing a suit of silver-white armor, bestowed by the Emperor himself.

  The sword at his waist was given by Liu Feng.

  With an upright posture, his armor shining brightly, his gaze was piercing. The aura of a great general had already begun to emanate from Zhao Yun's body.

  "This suit of armor suits Zi Long perfectly, it's like the finishing touch to a painting, making one's eyes light up." Liu Feng looked Zhao Yun up and down, smiling quite comfortably.

  "Your Excellency is overpraising." Liu Feng's lavish praise made Zhao Yun feel a bit embarrassed, and he bowed his fist in response.

  He himself was also quite delighted. This armor was bestowed by the Emperor, not only beautiful but also of high quality. The three treasures that a military general loves most are:

  The first is war horse, the second is armor, and the third is weapon.

  All three are important and cannot be ranked. In the past, although Zhao Yun was also a small general under Gongsun Zan's account, he was not treated well either.

  Now that he has just entered the palace, he already has a high-grade imperial horse as his mount and this set of armor. Even Zhao Yun would feel delighted.

  At the same time, he also attaches more importance to his own responsibilities and guards the safety of the person in front of him.

  Zhao Yun raised his head and looked at Liu Feng, who was young but extraordinary, with a very determined mind.

  "Afterwards, you will have to live in the palace and guard my left and right. Today, I'll let you go home and reunite with your family, and come back tomorrow." Liu Feng said after a moment of consideration.

  "Thank you, Your Highness." Zhao Yun heard this and thanked him with a bow.

  When he first arrived, he was also a little worried about his family. Therefore, Zhao Yun was also quite delighted with Liu Feng's consideration.

  Then, with Liu Feng's consent, Zhao Yun bid farewell and left.

  "Zhao Yun guards the convoy."

  Xun Yu was a high-ranking official.

  Jia Yu plans for his master.

  "General of Chariots and Cavalry Dong Cheng, a seasoned general with military power in his hands."

  "Fu Wan, a great-grandfather. A person of high virtue and prestige respected by all within the four seas."

  "Wang Fu, General Zhaoxin."

  "Zong Zhi, Long Shui Xiao Wei."

  "and the five thousand soldiers under Dong Cheng's command."

  "These are the forces in our hands. Compared to Cao Cao's large number of civil and military officials, tens of thousands of elite soldiers, we are a bit weaker. But at least we have some capital now."

  After Zhao Yun left, Liu Feng carefully thought about the current combat strength in his hands and couldn't help but feel delighted.

  The rest are all historical figures, originally existed. However, Zhao Yun, Xun Yu and Jia Xu were all won over by him. It can be said that he deviated from the track of history.

  Man can conquer nature.

  This is a spiritual stimulus for Liu Feng's plan to get rid of Cao Cao and control Xudu. In short, it can boost Liu Feng's confidence.

  Go ahead and continue with the plan below.

  "Perhaps it's time for Liu Feng to take action."
