Chapter 398

"The essence and blood of my father and mother, I cannot abandon it!"

Xia Hou Dun roared sternly.

Like a mad beast, he put the eyeball into his mouth and swallowed it.

He even chewed it a few times, eating it with relish.

Those soldiers surrounding Xia Hou Dun had long been scared into a daze by this scene.

Heaven have mercy!

Growing up, this was the first time they had seen such a fierce person.

However.

Xia Hou Dun was, in the end, not the protagonist of this book.

As the male lead, Gu Yi, how could he let him continue to act cool?

Gu Yi was seen raising his hand.

Great generals like Huang Zhong, Zhang Xiu, Hua Xiong, Fan Chou, Pang De, and Yan Xing all swarmed toward Xia Hou Dun!

Although Xia Hou Dun in an explosive state was very strong.

But...

Facing the siege of so many fierce generals.

This even included a top fierce general like Huang Zhong.

With such a lineup, even someone as strong as Lü Bu would only be beaten up!

Let alone Xia Hou Dun?

Supporting for less than a minute, Xia Hou Dun was hit in the back by Pang De's blade and fell straight down from his warhorse.

However.

The order Gu Yi gave was "capture Xia Hou Dun alive."

Huang Zhong and Yan Xing hurriedly raised their hands, catching Xia Hou Dun, who was about to fall to the ground, firmly.

Subsequently, Xia Hou Dun was tied up and officially became a prisoner.

Accompanied by Xia Hou Dun's defeat.

The few remaining garrison troops on the city walls instantly scattered like birds and beasts.

Gu Yi, under the escort of several fierce generals, walked into this seat of Yanzhou.

"Report to the Prime Minister, Cao Cao's favored concubine, Lady Bian, as well as Xia Houyuan's niece, Xia Houjuan, have been successfully captured by our army!"

Zhang He came to Gu Yi's side with a grin, reporting this "fruitful battle result" to Gu Yi.

"Junyi, well done."

"After going back, I will enfeoff you as a Marquis again."

Gu Yi patted Zhang He on the shoulder and encouraged him with a smile.

Before entering the city, he was still wondering where this kid Zhang He had run off to.

It turned out that Zhang He had always been thinking about Xia Houjuan and Lady Bian that Gu Yi had mentioned before!

As one of the first few generals to follow Gu Yi, Zhang He naturally enjoyed Gu Yi's trust.

And at the same time, Zhang He also knew the hobbies of Prime Minister Gu like the back of his hand.

What was the use of capturing Xia Hou Dun?

Mere Xia Hou Dun, how could he be as valuable as Cao Cao's favored concubine Lady Bian and Xia Houyuan's niece Xia Houjuan?

Seeing Zhang He's "small man getting his way" look.

Huang Zhong, Yan Xing, Pang De, and others all glared at him indignantly.

Immediately after.

Gu Yi led the generals to collect the battle results.

Although Xun Yu, Cao Ang, the Ding clan, and others had escaped.

But even Cao Cao's old nest, Chen Liu, had been breached by Gu Yi.

Even if those few people escaped, they couldn't change any situation.

What's more.

After this battle.

Due to the loss of Cao Cao's old nest.

The Yingchuan faction led by Xun Yu would suffer a cliff-like blow on the original basis.

In other words.

The Yingchuan faction, the big wet nurse behind Cao Cao, would fall into a predicament of "blue bar cleared, no blue available."

After entering the City Lord's Mansion.

Gu Yi called for someone to bring Lady Bian and Xia Houjuan over.

Although Lady Bian had already given birth to several children for Cao Cao.

She still retained her charm, possessing a unique beauty belonging to a mature woman.

And Lady Bian was not a woman with a big chest and no brain.

Her background was actually not high; initially, she was just a dancing girl in a brothel in Luoyang.

Later, because of her beauty, she was favored by Cao Cao and married into his home to become a favored concubine.

But after becoming a favored concubine, Lady Bian still respected Cao Cao's legitimate wife, Lady Ding, very much.

Because Lady Bian understood in her heart.

Lady Ding, as an aristocratic family, could bring considerable political power to Cao Cao behind her back.

Moreover.

Although Lady Ding had not given birth to any offspring for Cao Cao.

But Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang, because his biological mother had passed away, had always been raised by Lady Ding by her side since he was small.

Not born of her, but better than born of her.

With Cao Ang and the Ding family there.

No matter how much Lady Bian, this favored concubine, was favored by Cao Cao.

It was impossible to replace Lady Ding's status as the legitimate wife.

It was exactly the same in original history.

Until the death of Cao Ang, when the relationship between Lady Ding and Cao Cao developed a crack, did everything begin to change.

But what was even more outrageous was that Lady Ding even wanted to divorce her husband Cao Cao in the status of a legitimate wife!

In ancient times, there was only the husband divorcing the wife, where was there a wife divorcing the husband?

But Lady Ding really did it!

Although Cao Cao didn't pay attention to her, he also never abolished her status as the legitimate wife.

Until his later years, after Lady Ding passed away, did Cao Cao promote the favored concubine Lady Bian.

In this, it seemed Lady Bian did nothing.

But precisely because of the gentleness and understanding she displayed.

Did she increasingly gain Cao Cao's favor.

Standing out among Cao Cao's many concubines.

From this, it could be seen.

Lady Bian's IQ and EQ were not low.

And she was quite adept at how to grasp a man's heart.

At this moment, she understood that in this life, there was a high probability that she would never have the chance to return to Cao Cao's side again.

And the Gu Yi before her eyes was her destination for the rest of her life.

Moreover.

Her several children, Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, and Cao Xiong, had already escaped with Cao Ang and Lady Ding.

In this way, she couldn't be considered to have failed Cao Cao.

Therefore.

Lady Bian didn't show any resistance to Gu Yi, but instead actively catered to him.

Soon, she let Gu Yi experience what was called the happiness from a mature woman.

As for Xia Houjuan.
