Hearing Cheng Yu's voice seemed very anxious, Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat, and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground.

"Is it that Liu Zhe came here?" Cao Cao thought in shock.

Cao Cao had this idea. Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan had been back from Youzhou for almost a month. Everything they saw and heard in Youzhou told Cao Cao. This made Cao Cao feel a headache.

For nothing else, because from Xiahou Yuan and the others, Liu Zhe has many masters under him, and even people like Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun cannot make it to the top four.

Cao Cao knew the strength of Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun and Cao Hong. He sent these people to the martial arts competition in the hope that they could win the championship and then beat Liu Zhe in the face so that Liu Zhe could not get out of the stage. However, the result was that Cao Cao could not sleep at night.

It is easy to get a general in three armies, and these words are not just talk. In war, in addition to ordinary soldiers, there are also generals. If ordinary soldiers are not large enough, they just need to go around the villages and towns below and circle around to recruit enough soldiers. But if the general is not as good as a sheep, you can't get it by just a matter of just a circle.

A qualified general is the most basic thing to be able to fight. If you go to the battlefield, you won’t talk about anything else for the time being, at least you can lead the soldiers to charge into the battle.

Cao Cao has not many generals under his command, and even fewer ones with superb martial arts skills.

From what Xiahou Yuan and the others learned that Liu Zhe had countless generals under him, and more than half of the top 300 people were Liu Zhe's subordinates.

When Cao Cao thought of the number of generals under Liu Zhe, he couldn't sleep and felt sad and had a headache.

So in recent times, Cao Cao was in a bad mood, which made the Prime Minister's Mansion feel like he was pressed by a dark cloud, making everyone's heart heavy.

Moreover, Cao Cao had had nightmares for several nights. In the dream, Liu Zhe led countless generals to march southward to cross the Yellow River, rushing straight to Xudu, and grab him and jerk him up.

So today when he heard Cheng Yu's voice, he seemed very anxious, so he was worried that the nightmare he had had would come true. Liu Zhe really brought people to kill the Yellow River and was about to catch him alive.

However, when Cheng Yu appeared in front of Cao Cao, Cao Cao's heart relaxed because Cheng Yu had a smile on his face.

If Liu Zhe crossed the Yellow River, Cheng Yu would never be able to laugh.

"call..."

Cao Cao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, exclaimed a long time, and then quietly kicked the chopsticks that fell on the ground to his feet, covering it to avoid Cheng Yu's sight.

Cheng Yu came in and saw the chopsticks that were half exposed at first sight. He was so active that he immediately guessed what was going on.

But he just took a look, then looked away when he couldn't see it.

"Zhongde."

Cao Cao said to Cheng Yu in a calm tone: "Why have you been here long ago?"

"Yes, Prime Minister, there is something..." Cheng Yu wanted to report his purpose for coming here, but he was interrupted by Cao Cao.

"No hurry, have you had breakfast?"

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Come and eat with me."

The word breakfast was also passed from Youzhou. Cao Cao and his team usually ate two meals, but later they found that the three meals a day advocated by Liu Zhe in Youzhou were indeed very good, so Cao Cao learned without blushing.

"In this way, then I'm not polite."

Cheng Yu was not polite. He vaguely guessed why Cao Cao asked him to have breakfast together, so he cooperated.

The leader invites him to dinner. If he dares to eat too much, he will make the leader unhappy. What's more, Cao Cao is not really going to invite Cheng Yu to breakfast now, so Cheng Yu stopped eating after eating two bites.

"What, isn't it for your appetite?" Cao Cao also put down his chopsticks and asked with a smile.

"I am already full." Cheng Yu replied.

"Well, since that's the case, then let's talk about the serious matter."

Cao Cao had no intention of having breakfast anymore. He just ate breakfast just now just like a show of cooking.

"Wait, let's go to the hall to talk."

When Cheng Yu was about to speak and report, Cao Cao said this, he wanted to go to the office to speak.

Cao Cao was named Prime Minister and opened the office. The Prime Minister's Mansion was not only the place where Cao Cao lived, but also the place where office was, and an administrative office.

Cao Cao wanted to go to Cheng Yu to talk to him about things. If he didn't talk about it here, it was actually a deliberate attitude. Cao Cao was covering up his shocked behavior just now.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

The chopsticks were no longer under his feet, Cao Cao didn't feel that shameful in his heart, his waist straightened up all of a sudden, Cao Cao returned to his usual majestic aura, and asked Cheng Yu what was wrong with him coming early in the morning?

"Prime Minister," Cheng Yu said, "Gongsun Zan's son was attacked in Jizhou and was seriously injured."

"ha?"

Cao Cao didn't react for a moment. His mind was full of Liu Zhe just now. Gongsun Zan suddenly appeared and could not remember who this was.

However, Cao Cao was Cao Cao and he quickly realized it.
