Hearing this, Cao Cao once again mounted his horse and said, "There is no time to lose. Please, the prefect, show me the way."
As the governor of a county, if you don’t know how to get around in some places in the county, you will be a failure.
Obviously, the Langya County Magistrate would not go to that extent.
Under his leadership, Cao Cao and his entourage soon arrived at Wolonggang.
We also found the place where Zhuge Liang lived.
In front of the few thatched houses that look simple but are clean is the endless countryside.
Many people are working in the fields.
Backed by green mountains and surrounded by streams, it is a rare place for leisure.
Cao Cao looked around and said subconsciously: "No wonder such a great talent can be born here. This place is a good place for people."
Although he didn't understand Feng Shui, he knew at a glance that the Feng Shui of Wolonggang was definitely not bad.
When he arrived at the thatched cottage where Zhuge Liang lived, the county magistrate wanted to call out Zhuge Liang's name directly, but was stopped by Cao Cao.
Everyone saw him bow deeply and say, "I am Cao Cao, the Minister of War, and I would like to see Mr. Zhuge."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Everyone gasped.
ask to see?
My goodness, this is the King of Wei!
Everyone couldn't help but be curious about what the talented person that King Wei wanted to see looked like.
However, a long time after Cao Cao finished speaking, there was still no response from anyone in the thatched hut.
Seeing this, Cao Cao had no choice but to continue, "I am Cao Cao, and I, with the Empress's imperial decree, request an audience with Mr. Zhuge."
However, this time, after waiting for a long time, there was still no response.
Is he not at home?
Since you are not at home, why is the door of this thatched cottage not locked?
After a while.
A servant boy came from the fields and looked at the officials in front of the house. He did not feel excited or afraid. Instead, he bowed slightly to everyone as usual and said:
"What can I do for you all?"
The person in front of me is Zhuge Liang?
Everyone couldn't help but feel confused.
Cao Cao clasped his fists and returned the greeting, "I am Cao Cao, and I would like to see Mr. Zhuge."
The servant said, "So you want to see my master. You are late. My master is out for a walk with his wife today."
"When will you return?"
Cao Cao asked hurriedly.
He can't afford to wait for ten days or half a month.
The servant boy said frankly, "Probably one or two days, maybe a little longer, it depends on the master's interest."
Hearing the sound, Cao Cao became extremely anxious.
There are still many unfinished business in the court. How can he just waste time here waiting for Zhuge Liang?
After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and made a decision. He handed the prepared visiting card to the servant and said gently:
"When Mr. Zhuge comes back, please be sure to hand this visiting card to him. I will come to visit you again soon."
As the King of Wei and a high-ranking official in the court, he always called Zhuge Liang "your subordinate", which actually gave Zhuge Liang enough face.
But Cao Cao thought it was worth it even if he had to call himself "I'm your subordinate" for the rest of his life as long as he could bring this great talent to the country.
In this way, Cao Cao and others who came in a hurry did not see Zhuge Liang and had to return disappointed.
They planned to stay in the city temporarily and go to Wollongong after two days.
