My Son Returns: Resolving Conflict and Meeting Old Friends

Sima Yi rushed to Zhao Rui's side and asked what happened. Zhao Rui hurriedly hid behind Sima Yi and pointed at the tall and burly general in front of him and whispered that he intended to tease him. After hearing this, Sima Yi suspected that he had heard it wrong:

"What did you say?"

When Cao Hong saw this young boy who suddenly appeared, he disagreed and snorted coldly and said:

"Who are you? Don't meddle in other people's business and go to the side!"

But while Cao Hong rebuked him coldly, Sima Yi found that he looked very familiar. Soon he recalled the general who pretended to be Cao Cao in Liyang City to accept surrender.

Although he did not completely believe Zhao Rui's words, he did not take Cao Hong, who was taller than him seriously, so he blocked Zhao Rui behind him and faced Cao Hong with fierce eyes directly, and was not showing any weakness to his eyes:

"Double to the side? You don't seem to have any right to order me to do this..."

At this moment, Cao Hong also felt that Sima Yi in front of him was quite kind-faced, but it was hard to remember who he was just a quick glance at Li Yang when he surrendered. However, Sima Yi's rude words and deeds still angered Cao Hong. He slowly placed his right hand on the hilt of the sharp sword at his waist.

This move was noticed keenly by Sima Yi. He stretched out his right hand and signaled Zhao Rui not to move forward. Then he slowly took two steps back, ready to dodge Cao Hong's sword blade that would fall on him at any time.

Suddenly, Cao Hong quickly pulled out the sword at his waist with lightning speed and swung it towards Sima Yi's right shoulder. Sima Yi was calm and leaned back slightly. The Wuyu meteor in his sleeve slid down on his hand. He saw Cao Hong's right hand holding the sword, and while dodging, he aimed the Wuyu meteor's launch port at his right shoulder and pressed the mechanism button...

Just as Sima Yi was about to press the mechanism, the black shadow suddenly rushed to his eyes and pressed his right hand holding Wuyu Meteor with his hand, causing Sima Yi to miss the Wuyu Meteor because of this sudden scene, and changed direction to skip through Cao Hong's ear...

Almost at the same time, the crisp metal sound of swords and swords collided came from the middle between Sima Yi and Cao Hong. Only then did the onlookers find that Gu Yuejue holding a short knife in his back hand happened to appear behind the person holding Sima Yi's right hand tightly, and used the short knife in her hand to hold the long sword in Cao Hong's hand.

Realizing that someone seemed to be unfavorable to Sima Yi, she quickly pulled out another short knife from the leggings on her thigh and stabbed at the person behind her. At the same time, the man let go of Sima Yi's hand and dodged Gu Yuejue's attack. Then Gu Yuejue suddenly found that due to this person's dodging, his short knife stabbed directly at Sima Yi, who was far away. It was too late to hold it at this moment...

At the critical moment, Sima Yi was pulled aside by the hand that came from somewhere and avoided the attack range of the short sword.

What surprised Sima Yi and Gu Yuejue was:

The person who rescued Sima Yi was the man who stopped him from shooting Cao Hong with a featherless meteor...

Just as everyone was surprised that the young man should be Cao Hong's helper, and was surprised by his behavior of saving Sima Yi, he walked to Cao Hong with a calm expression, put his hand on Cao Hong's shoulder and said:

"Stop it here, uncle. It would be awesome if the lord knew about it."

Cao Hong glanced at the young man, hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth, glared fiercely at Gu Yuejue and Sima Yi confronted him, and took the sword in his hand back into the sheath, looking at the young man beside him with a puzzled look:

"Zi Dan, aren't you sending Liu Xuande to the east gate with your lord? Why are you here?"

It turned out that the man who suddenly appeared was Cao Cao's adopted son Cao Zhen. His father Cao Gui had been following Cao Cao to fight all directions and was deeply trusted by Cao Cao. Later, when he attacked Dong Zhuo, he was killed by Huang Wan, the governor of Yuzhou, leaving only three sons and one daughter.

Cao Cao felt deeply guilty of Cao Gui's death and adopted the children he left behind.

Especially when he spent a lot of energy to cultivate Cao Zhen and let him be his companionship with Cao Pi, Cao Zhen did not disappoint him. There was no mistake in guarding Yanzhou when he welcomed the emperor.

The emperor moved to Xu County. He went to Xu County with Cao Cao's order to go to Xu County to report his work with Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan.

"Because I'm coming to meet my old friend..."

Before Cao Zhen could answer him, two people appeared on the east side of the road and walked towards them. Cao Hong saw the two of them clearly and did not dare to neglect them. He put away his violent aura just now and bowed to them:

"Cao Hong has met Fengxiao Military Advisor, Mr. Yuan Chang."

"General, don't be too polite. General Zidan is one of our old friends whom Zhong Yao and I invited us to welcome us first. I didn't expect you to be here too."

Guo Jia gently stretched out his palm and picked Cao Hong's fists upwards. Then he looked at Sima Yi, Gu Yuejue and Hu Zhao who were standing opposite him, but he was not aware of Zhao Rui behind Sima Yi, and couldn't help but be surprised:

"You didn't say there was another person with you, Brother Kongming."

Hu Zhao replied coldly: "I am only responsible for protecting this kid from here safely, and I don't care about anything else."

His usual cold attitude of tone made Guo Jia feel much more at ease, thinking that since Hu Zhao found Sima Yi, he should have been very smooth along the way. At this time, he looked at Gu Yuejue beside Sima Yi and said with tender eyes:

"Thank you for your hard work, you seem to be much more haggard..."

Gu Yuejue, who seemed to be avoiding something, kept his head down and not looking at Guo Jia. Instead, he secretly glanced at Sima Yi. This made Guo Jia feel something was strange. He seemed to have noticed something and did not continue to pursue the problem.

He turned to Sima Yi, who had been away for a long time, took a few steps to walk to him, spread his fingers and pressed the top of his head, rubbed his hair and looked him up and down:

"I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to have gained a lot of weight. Is it because the food from Zhang Zhongjing is so good, or...?"

He deliberately looked at Gu Yuejue with a very strange look: "Is it because someone is taking good care of him along the way?"

Sima Yi was very tired of Guo Jia's greeting method of holding his head over his head every time he met. He reached out to block Guo Jia's hand and rolled his eyes and replied coldly: "Yes, it's been a long time since I saw you. I didn't expect you have become Cao Cao's chief adviser."

"Hahaha..." Guo Jia was stunned at first after hearing this, then raised his head and laughed:

"Indeed, things are impermanent. Maybe one day you will take my seat as the chief counselor."

Similarly, Sima Yi was also not very adapted to Guo Jia's cynical attitude:

"It doesn't matter if you want to curse yourself for a short life, but I don't have much interest in the chief adviser."

Looking at Guo Jia's eyes, Sima Yi made him joking and was quite serious. Guo Jia shook his finger:

"Didn't I say that things in the world are unpredictable..."
