Chapter 363 Lu Bu's wife and Guo Huai's sister! Another person has their eyes on Su Yu!
Ye City
Yuan Tan opened his eyes and began to curse.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, Dian Wei stuffed a chicken leg into it and shut him up.
Suddenly, Dian Wei scratched his head, snatched the chicken leg back, and put on a pair of smelly socks that he had found somewhere.
"puff!"
The stench was overwhelming, and Yuan Tan was successfully knocked unconscious by Dian Wei, falling into a coma once again.
"Looks like I messed it up..."
Dian Wei shook his head and continued eating the other chicken legs on the table.
As for the original one, it ended up in Yuan Tan's mouth. Dian Wei was a little reluctant to throw it away, but after thinking about it, he decided to let it go.
Suddenly, Xu Chu's son, Xu Yi, also walked in from outside.
Then, we saw Dian Wei eating chicken legs with Xu Yi.
The two of them ate while watching Yuan Tan get knocked out by the fumes.
Fortunately, Guo Tu, who had already surrendered, ran in and revived Yuan Tan.
"Oh my god..."
"You Cao Cao's camp, you bastards are not human!"
Yuan Tan weakly pointed at Dian Wei and Xu Yi.
Guo Tu's eyes were filled with tears:
"My lord... no, young master, who can argue with that?"
"That Cao Cao's camp, waah waah waah, they're all a bunch of bastards!"
Yuan Tan wasn't stupid. Hearing the change in how Guo Tu addressed him, he quickly scrambled out of Guo Tu's arms and questioned him:
"Gongze, could it be that even you have betrayed me?"
Guo Tu stammered:
"People have to live, young master."
"you!!!"
Yuan Tan was furious.
He has now realized that leading his army to Ye City is simply handing Cao Cao his head!
If it weren't for Guo Tu's persistent deception, Yuan Tan probably wouldn't have believed such a lousy plan!
"wrong!"
"Guo Tu, you wouldn't happen to be a spy in Cao Cao's camp, would you?"
Yuan Tan looked at Guo Tu with suspicion.
For a time, Yuan Tan was filled with suspicion towards Guo Tu.
If this guy really is a traitor within Cao Cao's camp, then that makes a lot of sense...
Unexpectedly, Guo Tu panicked!
He waved his hands repeatedly and said:
"Young Master, I didn't!"
"My feelings for you are absolutely genuine!"
Yuan Tan still did not believe Guo Tu.
If Guo Tu isn't an undercover agent... good heavens! That's even more terrifying!
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Tan's door was pushed open by Chunyu Qiong and Xu You.
Under their advice, Yuan Tan sighed deeply, his face showing helplessness.
"Besides this, Mr. Yuan has no other choice, does he?"
Xu You also sighed:
"In fact, Mengde has already done more than enough."
“If you, young master, are captured by Yuan Shang, he will certainly not let you go.”
Yuan Tan smiled wryly:
"Never mind, I just hope that Uncle Mengde can let me go and pay my respects on the anniversaries of my father's and mother's deaths every year."
Chunyu Qiong and Xu You exchanged a smile and nodded in unison:
"That's the way it is."
Thus, Yuan Tan gave up the struggle and chose to follow Cao Cao back to Xuchang after the war to live a wealthy life.
Although Yuan Tan couldn't let go of everything for the time being.
However, the disparity in strength was too great, and all the civil and military officials under his command had already surrendered.
Being a wealthy man is already the best arrangement.
Of course, this was done to consider Yuan Tan's feelings.
Cao Ang still treated him "as an elder brother".
This allowed Yuan Tan to experience a brotherhood he had never felt with Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang.
Later, Yuan Tan's lineage became the direct line of the Yuan family.
Even after the establishment of the Great Wei Dynasty, many of its sons still served as officials, and some even rose to high positions in the court.
If Yuan Shao were alive today, he would surely find no fault with this arrangement.
After all, this is much better than the original fate of the Yuan family's direct line dying out.

In the council chamber
Hearing the report from his subordinate, Wang Ling's expression turned grim.
"Is that Gao Gan still unwilling to surrender?"
Wang Ling is an indecisive person.
He desperately wanted to get rid of Gao Gan, but he didn't know how Cao Cao would view him.
Therefore, after much deliberation, he decided to send an envoy to Huguan to persuade Gao Gan to surrender with him.
But right now, the high-ranking official's refusal has clearly left Wang Ling somewhat panicked, unsure of what to do next.
"My lord, in my opinion, you don't need to care about the life or death of that high-ranking official."
"You are the patriarch of the Wang family of Jinyang, and you are about to lead the entire Bingzhou to surrender to Cao Cao. How could Cao Cao not value you?"
The envoy patiently analyzed the situation for Wang Ling.
Wang Ling shook his head:
"Boji, Cao Cao is cunning by nature."
"My Wang family cannot find a suitable candidate to marry Su Ziyi, so that Su Ziyi can protect my Wang family."
"What if Cao Cao promotes me in name only after I surrender, wouldn't that be the end of me?"
As a member of the Wang family of Jinyang, Wang Ling knew all too well what "card table thinking" meant.
The times have changed.
To be precise, the old era ended the moment Ju Shou died.
Within the four prefectures of Hebei, no, it should be said that throughout the entire world, within the circles of aristocratic families, there is no one else who can be compared to Ju Shou.
Even members of the Wang family of Jinyang, if they fail to enter Cao Cao's inner circle after surrendering, are destined for decline.
However, the number of positions in the inner circle is limited.
There were no women in the direct line of the Wang family who were exceptionally beautiful enough to capture Su Yu's heart.
Seeing Wang Ling's anxiety, the young man called "Boji" laughed:
"My lord, if you trust me, you might as well take my sister as your adopted sister and have her marry Su Yu."
"In addition, your cousin, the daughter of Wang Situ, who is also the wife of Lü Bu, can be sent to Cao Cao."
"I'm sure Cao Cao will gladly accept it!"
Suddenly, a look of joy appeared in Wang Ling's eyes.
The messenger, whose courtesy name was Boji, was none other than Guo Huai!
Historically, Guo Huai moved between Wang Ling and Sima Yi, establishing kinship ties with both of them.
Born into the Guo family of Jinyang, he is currently Wang Ling's younger brother.
But soon, he will transform into Su Yu's man.
This is why Guo Huai suggested to Wang Ling earlier that Wang Ling take his sister as his sworn sister.
His younger sister, named Guo Yun, was a stunning beauty.
Wang Ling's cousin, Lü Bu's wife, was Wang Yun's daughter, Wang Ruohua.
Although Wang Ruohua isn't particularly beautiful, as long as her attributes are appealing, sending her to Cao Cao would be a bonus!
For a while.
Wang Ling absolutely adores Guo Huai!
His anxiety was resolved by Guo Huai in no time.
But before Wang Ling could say anything to Guo Huai...
Suddenly, a guard rushed up to him and reported:
"Your Honor!"
"Urgent report has arrived from near Yanmen Pass!"
"The Southern Xiongnu launched a large-scale invasion. Chanyu Huchuquan and Zuo Xianwang Liu Bao personally led troops to the south, with a total force suspected to exceed 150,000!"
