    "Why?"

    Cao Ang didn't understand. Recalling what happened before, Cao Ang became even more confused and asked: "I hope my uncle will explain why he let Yuan Shu escape, why it would be best for Yuan Shu to die in the hands of Gongsun Zan, and why we can't capture or kill him."  Got Yuan Shu?"

    "Would it be good for you to kill Yuan Shu?" Xiahou Dun asked Cao Ang.

    "Why is there no benefit?" Cao Ang also asked Xiahou Dun, "He is a traitor, and everyone will kill him. If we kill him, we can increase our father's prestige."

    Cao Ang¡¯s idea is very simple. Yuan Shu has established himself as emperor. No matter how famous he was before, he is just a rebel now. As Cao Cao¡¯s son, if he kills Yuan Shu, he will make Cao Cao look good.

    "Increase prestige?" Xiahou Dun looked at Cao Ang and asked, "I don't think it's enough to kill the prime minister."

    "What?" Cao Ang's eyes widened, "Why did uncle say that?"

    "Who is Yuan Shu?" Xiahou Dun asked him.

    Who is Yuan Shu?  When mentioning Yuan Shu, the first thing people think of is the Yuan family of the Four Generations and Three Dukes. It can be said that the Yuan family was the largest family in the world before, with disciples and former officials all over the world.  At that time, no other family could compare with the Yuan family.

    With the Yuan family¡¯s reputation, the people of the Yuan family can be domineering everywhere, and no one dares to provoke them.  At that time, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were the dominant players in Luoyang.

    With the decline of the imperial court, everyone in the Yuan family can participate in the struggle for the throne.  Dong Zhuo entered the capital, and Yuan Shao was elected as the leader of the alliance to deal with Dong Zhuo.

    At that time, the imperial court was in decline, but the reputation of the Yuan family was still unmatched.

    Yuan Shao could even use the name of the Yuan family to gather countless heroes in the Bohai Sea, annex Qingzhou and Jizhou, and become the overlord of one side.

    However, after Yuan Shao was defeated by Liu Zhe and beheaded in public, the Yuan family's reputation plummeted.

    Then, Yuan Shu became the new head of the Yuan family.

    Although Yuan Shao was defeated by Liu Zhe and the Yuan family's reputation finally declined, the skinny camel was bigger than a horse, and the Yuan family's aura was still very impressive.  The good people who missed the Yuan family gathered under Yuan Shu's command again, which made Yuan Shu's strength suddenly increase. Yuan Shu dared to proclaim himself emperor in Shouchun in large part because of the large number of talents under his command and his increased strength.

    "Yuan Shu is just a traitor now." Cao Ang thought about what Yuan Shu did and said nonchalantly.

    "Although he is a traitor, don't forget that he is the head of the Yuan family." Xiahou Dun not only has strong martial arts skills, but also has a high political level. In addition, Cao Cao had already had an affair with him before he set off, so Xiahou Dun understood  What are you doing?

    "The disciples of the Yuan family are all over the world. Even though Yuan Shu claimed to be emperor and became a traitor, many people still miss the Yuan family. Together they are a big force. If Yuan Shu is killed, they will definitely be punished.  Holding a grudge is not a good thing for the prime minister." Xiahou Dun said to Cao Ang.

    Suddenly hearing such a statement, Cao Ang's eyes widened, which shocked Cao Ang greatly.

    Cao Ang is only in his twenties now. He is very young. He cannot see or think of these things.

    "Really, really?" Cao Ang asked.

    "Why else would I let you do this?" Xiahou Dun said.

    "But," Cao Ang asked after being confused for a while, "Uncle, although Yuan Shu did not die in our hands, we were the ones who captured Xuyi and drove him away. This way we are not afraid of those who are loyal to Yuan Shu."  Does the family hold grudges?"

    "It is certain to hold grudges, but the main hatred is on Gongsun Zan." Xiahou Dun said.

    "That's it." Cao Ang immediately understood that this was to let Gongsun Zan attract most of the hatred for Cao Cao.

    "Do you understand?" Xiahou Dun asked.

    "My nephew understands." Cao Ang nodded and said to Xiahou Dun, "My nephew, thank you for your uncle's teaching."

    "Uncle," after Cao Ang nodded, he suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Is this the reason why Gongsun Zan did something on the water and then destroyed the corpse?"

    "It's possible." Xiahou Dun said.

    "So, the first thing to do now is to report this matter to the Prime Minister and let the Prime Minister make it public and let the world know who killed Yuan Shu."

    "I'll leave this matter to you," Xiahou Dun said to Cao Ang.

    "Yes, my nephew understands." Cao Ang accepted the order. He already understood the reason, so he had no jealousy in his heart. He felt that it would be best to give this credit to Gongsun Zan. At the same time, he also felt a little regretful. Gongsun Zan was still too cunning to refuse.  Let Yuan Shu go to his territory and start again.

    &nbsp"It's useless even if you want to hide it." Cao Ang thought proudly, and then personally arranged for someone to pass the news back to Xudu.

    The news soon spread back to Xudu. After receiving the news, even Cao Cao couldn't help laughing.

    Yuan Shu died, and the fourth generation and the third Duke, the formerly powerful Yuan family, completely declined. Huainan fell into his hands, and his territory expanded. More importantly, he was not responsible for the crime of killing Yuan Shu.

    "Come here!" Cao Cao shouted, he wanted to help Gongsun Zan.

    "Gongsun Zan has made great achievements in eliminating thieves, and the court should reward him heavily" Cao Cao wanted to ask for credit for Gongsun Zan.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
