Everyone bowed to Cao Cao and Xun Yu one after another, then left Cao Cao's mansion, and then returned directly to their own family.

After everyone returned to the family, they summoned all the high-level personnel of the family, even those who were following Cao Cao as officials, were also summoned.

In a family, everyone has already arrived, and then the head of the family started to say:

"The reason for letting everyone here this time is because the lord has given us a family who are loyal to the lord a mission."

Everyone only knew that their Patriarch was hurriedly called by the Lord, but they didn't know why. Since the Patriarch said that the Lord had given a mission, everyone was very curious, so they stood up and one person was sent by the Patriarch to follow Cao Cao children.

After the man stood up, he bowed his hands to the elders and said:

"Uncle, I don't know what mission the lord asked you to go this time?"

The person sitting at the top saw that it was his nephew asking, so he stopped talking and said directly:

"My lord asked me to go there this time to let our family move to Jizhou and join Yuan Shao."

Everyone present panicked when they heard what the head of the family said, just like when the heads of the family heard what Cao Cao said.

The person who asked the question just now was shocked when he heard it. Could it be that the lord doesn't trust me to wait for the family?Drive us out of Yanzhou?So he hurriedly asked:

"Uncle, why did my lord ask me to move to Jizhou to join Yuan Shao? I, Yanzhou, and Yuan Shao are life and death enemies now, don't you want us to die?"

When the Patriarch heard what his nephew said, he smiled and said:

"You don't need to panic. My lord let us go to Jizhou this time to pretend to join Yuan Shao. It means that we will join hands with the families in Jizhou to force Yuan Shao to send troops and let Yuan Shao go to war with Liaodong."

"If this strategy can be successful, the lord has said that it will only be a matter of time before the world is unified. As long as they both lose, the lord will lead his troops to kill them. As long as the lord destroys Jizhou and Liaodong, there will be no way to unify the world." What can hinder the lord."

"At that time, our aristocratic family will be the ministers of the lord, and the children of the family will also be reused by the lord, and their status will rise to a terrible height by then."

All the people present nodded their heads when they heard the words of the head of the family. They felt that such a strategy was feasible, so someone said:

"Patriarch, since this is the case, when shall we set off for Jizhou?"

The Patriarch said directly:

"We still have to wait for the Lord's order. We need to pack up our things now, and leave some important clan members in Yanzhou to continue to help the Lord complete his great cause. Pack up the rest as soon as possible. Only one family member will be left in the shop."

"All the rest have to go to Jizhou, and they have to play a play with the lord, that is, to spread the news that the ancestral house was forcibly taken away by the lord."

When everyone heard this, some nodded their heads to express their understanding, but some still felt that something was wrong, so some people asked:

"Patriarch, isn't this a little risky? If the lord really wants to take away our ancestral house in the name of pretending, what should we do?"

The Patriarch heard it, smiled, and said:

"There is no need to worry about this. The lord has personally promised that it is just acting. Moreover, we still left some people in Yanzhou. The ancestral house was taken away by the lord in name, but in fact it is still in our hands."

Hearing this, those people silently nodded in agreement with their Patriarch's meaning, so the Patriarch said again:

"After a few days, after receiving the order from the lord, we will set off. Let's go back and pack our things."

After the patriarch finished speaking, he called out the names of many people, and asked those who got the names to stay in Yanzhou, and those who didn't get the names followed to Jizhou.

And he also explained that this news is only for those present, and no one is allowed to tell it. If anyone asks, tell them.

This is for the sake of the family, Yuan Shao is powerful, and only by relying on Yuan Shao can the family be preserved.

These things were clearly arranged by the Patriarch, and he was afraid that the news would be leaked and Cao Cao's plan would fail.

At the same time, the same thing happened in several aristocratic families in Yanzhou, but the news was well hidden, only waiting for a letter from the aristocratic family in Jizhou.

After more than ten days, many aristocratic families have been fully prepared. Just today, all the aristocratic families in Yanzhou, no matter whether they are first-rate or second-rate aristocratic families, have received letters from Jizhou aristocratic families.

The letter stated that they were asked to come to Jizhou to seek refuge with Yuan Shao, and also said how powerful Yuan Shao was, and they were also supported by Kong Rong and many families in Qingzhou.

Moreover, he also promised many benefits to the aristocratic families in Yanzhou, which made some aristocratic families see hope and began to move around.

They had long been dissatisfied with Cao Cao, because of the soldiers and horses in Cao Cao's hands, so they dared to confront Cao Cao, but Cao Cao couldn't do anything to them.

If Cao Cao takes action against these aristocratic families, some aristocratic families will not dare to take refuge in Cao Cao easily, and will no longer dare to come to Yanzhou.

So this is why Cao Cao clearly knew that some aristocratic families in Yanzhou were unwilling to surrender to him sincerely, and he didn't use force to force these aristocratic families to take refuge in him.

Just after all the aristocratic families in Yanzhou received letters from the aristocratic families in Jizhou, some people have already begun to move around and quietly sell the shops and fields in their hands.

However, what these aristocratic families did not expect was that none of the aristocratic families like them usually came out to buy these shops, and they were all secretly selling these shops and properties.

So Cao Cao began to order those aristocratic families who let him stay, and began to purchase these shops and land properties in large quantities.

But those who finally got Cao Cao were just pretending to sell, and the shops and land were still in their hands.

They got news from Cao Cao and allowed them to secretly buy some shops and land properties, also to compensate them.

But those aristocratic families who were about to move were out of luck. When they just received the letter from the Jizhou aristocratic family, they were already targeted by the spies sent by Cao Cao.

Of course, there are still some aristocratic families, although they didn't say they would submit to Cao Cao, nor did they intend to take refuge in Yuan Shao, which made these aristocratic families buy shops and land properties.

Cao Cao didn't care about these aristocratic families, he let them buy them, and he didn't care, he just sent someone to watch them, and reported to him in time if there was any news.
