    "When the subordinates left, Princess Hejian once said to the subordinates that if the Prime Minister was unwilling to pay the money, she could pay for it on his behalf." Jiang Ji finally said this.

    "What does she mean?"

    Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, but soon he understood. He shouted angrily: "Is that girl trying to win Zi Lian's favor?"

    Jiang Ji stopped talking. He believed that Cao Cao would make a decision soon.

    Just as Jiang Ji thought, after Cao Cao knew that even Liu Jing was plotting against Cao Hong, he couldn't calm down. After thinking for a long time, Cao Cao had to say: "Send someone to tell Liu Zhe, please wait a little longer."  I will collect enough money and food, and hope that he will keep his promise, and when the time comes, he will release Zilian as promised."

    Ten thousand taels of gold and one hundred thousand hu of grain and grass are not a small amount, and we are not in Xudu now. Cao Cao will need some time to raise them.

    "yes!"

    Jiang Ji accepted the order, and then asked: "Prime Minister, what about Sun Cheng?"

    " Redeeming Cao Hong is only a secondary goal. For Cao Cao, the main concern is Liu Zhe and his hundreds of thousands of troops.

    "Look again."

    Cao Cao did not make a decision so quickly. Until the last moment, Cao Cao did not want to hand over Sun Cheng.

    It can be said that bowing to Liu Zhe and paying the ransom to redeem Cao Hong was to save his subordinates, and he bowed to Liu Zhe at the expense of his own reputation.

    Doing so will make many people feel that Cao Cao values ??friendship, and will also impress his subordinates and make them more loyal to him.

    But if Sun Cheng is handed over, the impact will be great, and Cao Cao's reputation may be ruined.

    Will others dare to believe him, Cao Cao, in the future?  Do you still dare to hang out with him, Cao Cao?  This chain reaction was huge, and Cao Cao couldn't stand it. He had to think about it again.

    A few days later, the ransom had been raised to 7788, some of which was shipped directly from Chenliu, Xudu. Jiang Ji went to tell Cao Cao and asked Cao Cao when to hand over the ransom to Liu Zhe.

    But just when Jiang Ji found Cao Cao and before he could speak, Kuai Yue reported: "Prime Minister, the angel has arrived."

    The imperial edict that Cao Cao asked Xu Du to ask the emperor to write finally came.

    "Hmm, are you here?"

    Cao Cao was not very excited. After all, he didn't have much hope that the imperial edict would defeat the enemy. He was just treating a dead horse as a living horse.

    "Let him in."

    Cao Cao said calmly, he had no intention of getting up to greet him, so what about the emperor's special envoy?  He doesn't even respect the emperor, let alone someone sent by the emperor.

    "Meet the Prime Minister."

    Soon, people with the emperor's imperial edict came in.

    "Uncle Ping, why is it you?" Cao Cao couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw the special envoy himself.

    The visitor turned out to be He Yan, the grandson of General He Jin.  He Yan and Cao Cao had a close relationship. He Yan's father died young, and Cao Cao, a good wife, took He Yan's mother as his concubine, so He Yan became Cao Cao's adopted son.

    Later, He Yan moved out when he became an adult. He now serves as a servant in the imperial court. Although he is Cao Cao's adopted son, he does not have much power.

    He Yan¡¯s skin is very white, whiter than some women¡¯s skin. After he came in, everyone felt that they were much darker.

    "Returning to the Prime Minister, it was Situ who suggested that his subordinates come with the emperor's decree." He Yan said why he appeared here.

    "Huh, old guy."

    Cao Cao couldn't help but snorted coldly, and cursed Wang Yun as an old fox in his heart.

    Cao Cao knew what Wang Yun was up to. It was unrealistic to use the imperial edict to force Liu Zhe to retreat, and he would offend Liu Zhe instead.  And He Yan is Cao Cao's man, and it will be Cao Cao who offends Li Zu when the time comes, and it has nothing to do with Wang Yun or the emperor.

    "Now that you're here, feel free to stay here." Cao Cao said to He Yan.

    He did not pay attention to the imperial edict brought by He Yan. After talking to He Yan for a few words, he turned his attention to Jiang Ji and asked, "Zitong, what's the matter?"

    "Prime Minister, this" Jiang Ji glanced at He Yan who was still beside him, as if he was worried that He Yan would find out.

    "Don't worry, Uncle Ping is not an outsider, there is no need to worry." Cao Cao said.

    Although He Yan¡¯s surname is He, he is still considered Cao Cao¡¯s adopted son, and he is destined to be on Cao Cao¡¯s side.

    "The ransom is almost ready. Prime Minister, when do you think it will be handed over to Liu Zhe?" Jiang Jidao.

    "Prime Minister, what's the ransom?" He Yan asked confused.

    He thought heComing here in accordance with the imperial edict will get Cao Cao's attention, but Cao Cao's lukewarm attitude towards him disappointed him, so he urgently wanted to know what was going on.

    "Alien, talk to him."

    Cao Cao said to Kuai Yue: "Since Uncle Ping asked, let him know what's going on."

    Kuai Yue nodded and quickly told He Yan what happened these days.

    After hearing this, He Yan laughed heartily and said to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, this matter is simple, why do you need to bow to Liu Zhe?"

    "oh?"

    When Cao Cao heard this, he immediately became energetic and asked: "Uncle Ping, what do you mean by this?"

    "Prime Minister, doesn't Liu Zhe claim to be a loyal minister?"

    A smile appeared on He Yan's frighteningly white face, but this smile made other people feel uncomfortable when they saw it. He said: "This subordinate's identity is an angel, a special envoy sent by the emperor. If he dares to resist the order, he is treason.  You can let everyone in the world know Liu Zhe¡¯s true face.¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
