Zhang He bowed and smiled, raising to a standing position. Cao Cao was a feared ruler, but a just one and graceful. His words only excited him and Zhang He wanted nothing more than to prove his strength on the battlefield. "Of course my lord. Consider your enemies eviscerated." he bowed once more before backing away and turning completely. Zhang He knew he had chosen wisely as soon as she set his eyes upon Lord Cao Cao, now it was time to prove his worth and strength in battle.

A smallish man wearing moderately fine robes and rather nice-looking hat approached the gates of the palace of Chen Liu. He was a man on a mission. He was Guo Tu, esteemed adviser to Yuan Shao and widely-renowned sketchball. He nodded his head at the guards as he addressed them.
"I am Guo Tu, a servant of Yuan Shao. I seek an audience with Lord Cao Cao. I bring a request from my master."

After waiting vainly for a response, Guo Tu sighed.
"My apologies, but I must return to my master. Please send my regards to lord Cao." He gave a bow, turned, and walked away.

Xian growled as he made his way into the Palace of Chen Liu, annoyed with guards asking him "what his purpose was" every ten feet. After telling the first ten that He was here to see Lord Cao Cao, It was getting a tad annoying. He sighed as he saw another one moving towards him, his hands twitching towards his back, before stopping infront of the guard. "Halt! State your reason for being here." Xian nearly smacked himself, Could they even say anything else? "I'm hear to see my cousin, Lord Cao Cao. Either announce me, so I don't have to deal with you moronic guards, or get out of my way so I can track him down myself." The guard took a half-step back, before recovering and nodding, muttering a silent insult at Xian before motioning for him to follow. After a few minutes of walking, Xian was shown into the audience room and told to wait for Lord Cao Cao.

Growling to himself as he paced, You could barely make out the frown on his face threw his mask as Xian "waited" for Cao Cao. Getting fed up, He told the guard that his time was precious and left, cursing every guard he passed as he left. Exiting the Palace, Xian roughly took the reins of his horse from the handler and made his way out of Chen Liu, He'd heard of a man similar to himself in Cheng Du. Perhaps there he wouldn't be ignored!

Cao Cao had been informed that his cousin was leaving. He smiled to himself, "just like Xiahou Dun" he said to himself. Xian shared the great name of Xiahou and was Cao Cao's cousin, he made the man wait a while to see if he was anything like his relatives, Yuan and Dun. Both men lacked the possession of patience, but both men were great warriors. The other Xiahou's who had patience were poor warriors maybe this was a sign that a great warrior was about to enter his employ. Cao Cao walked out of his palace with his two cousins, Yuan and Dun. They escorted him out of the palace and to the stables where all 3 men mounted a horse and rode out of Chen Liu after their impatient relative. They had caught up to the man who was making his way to somewhere else. "Xian." Cao Cao called. "You have passed my test young man. Your older cousins like you possess no patience and neither do I, this may work in your favour as history states a Xiahou with no patience is a great warrior. Please ride with me back to Chen Liu cousin and we can discuss things more openly."
