Chapter 171 Liu Bei, who can't be calm

As Gao Shun expected, Cao Cao learned that Xu You was killed, and did not make any substantive punishment for Dian Wei, but just pretended to cry bitterly, and then reprimanded Dian Wei with a strong voice, and it was over.

With Boss Cao's superb acting skills, it is no problem to squeeze out a few tears.

Cao Cao didn't kill Xu You before, on the one hand, because he was afraid of others gossiping, but he had enough gossip on his back, and he wouldn't care too much about one more. The main reason is that Cao Cao is worried that the heroes of the world will think that he is good at killing heroes, so he is unwilling to come to serve, which is a little unacceptable to Cao Cao, who is thirsty for talent.

However, now that Xu Yu is dead, these concerns don't matter.

Anyway, people can't be resurrected after death, how can others think and say what they love, can they still manage it?

Of course, Xu You was killed by Dian Wei, and he didn't know about it in advance. But when this kind of thing is said, someone must believe it, Dian Wei is your subordinate, if you dare to kill a hero casually without your order?

At this point, there is no point in punishing Dian Wei, even if you want to punish him, what can you do, beat him with dozens of military sticks? At that time, people will still think that you are just acting, and maybe you will leave the world with the impression of being mean and unkind: "Look, Dian Wei was ordered by Cao Cao to kill Xu Yu on the front foot, but Cao Cao beat Dian Wei on the back foot in order to clear up the relationship with this matter." ”

So, forget it.

If you want to really let the world understand that Xu Yu's death really has nothing to do with you, unless you cut Dian Wei. Acting will not be done like this, if Dian Wei pays for Xu You's life, others will know that this is really Dian Wei's audacity and killing Xu You on his own initiative. At that time, people will not only not say that Cao Cao is ruthless and unrighteous, but may praise his selflessness.

But is Cao Cao willing to do it? For the sake of a mere Xu Yu to kill the love general? No way!

What's more, Xu Yu is extremely arrogant and has no dignity and humility, and he deserves to die!

Cao Cao is reluctant to let Dian Wei lose his life, and the cane can't easily change the misunderstanding of the world, since this is the case, it is better to pretend to be generous, just don't punish Dian Wei, and scold two sentences verbally.

It can be said that since the moment Dian Wei said that he had killed Xu You, Cao Cao had already taken over the matter.

Before Dian Wei came, he had already made a plan to exchange his life for his life, even if Cao Cao didn't kill himself, it is estimated that dozens of military sticks would not run. As a result, I didn't want Cao Cao to end up just scolding himself a few words, so he stopped pursuing it at all, which made Dian Wei can't help but have a feeling of escaping death.

Since it was a narrow escape from death, Dian Wei was in a good mood at the moment, and without saying a word, he took Gao Shun to drink. Although half of the training time has passed at this time, it stands to reason that Gao Shun is going to return to the barracks immediately, but considering that there is still Hao Zhao leading the team in the barracks, it will be forgotten. Although Hao Zhao is still young, his ability is not bad, and there should be nothing wrong with him in charge. Moreover, I really haven't been in touch with this big brother for a long time, and it's not easy to save his face at the moment, so the two found a restaurant with good specifications and drank heartily.

————————————————————————————————

Chuyang City, in the palace of General Zuo.

Liu Bei's face was not good, he had been unable to think for many days and nights.

In the first battle of Pi that day, the second brother and the third brother lost their news, and the third brother Zhang Fei has not been traced yet, but there is news of the second brother Guan Yu.

It's just that this news is not good news for Liu Bei.

It is rumored that his second brother Guan Yu has now joined Cao Cao's account, and he was still in the battle of Guandu before, dragging Yuan Shao's army with his own strength, and buying time for Cao Cao, who was at a disadvantage, to regroup.

In the current time and space, Guan Yu's reputation is much worse than the original historical period, and this battle has almost made his reputation increase several times overnight.

And the deeds of his official crossing the Savior also quickly spread all over the country.

Even if Liu Bei can disguise himself on weekdays, when he hears the news, it is obviously impossible for him to be calm.

How close the relationship between the three Taoyuan brothers is, outsiders may not understand, but Liu Bei himself is very clear.

Living and dying together is easier said than done, but Liu Bei is sure that the three brothers can really fulfill the promise of living and dying together.

Liu Bei may have deceived many people in his life, but in front of his two younger brothers, he has always been sincere and has never been hypocritical for a moment.

And now, his second brother Guan Yu is actually serving Cao Cao, how can this make him not feel disheartened.

At first, Liu Bei thought that this was fake news spread by Cao Cao, and sent many people to verify it, but the answer that everyone brought back was the same - Guan Yu alone delayed Yuan Shao's army and bought Cao Cao a lot of time.

Liu Bei began to despair, even Guan Yu could betray him, is there anyone in this world who can be trusted?

It stands to reason that after learning the news that Guan Yu is still alive, Liu Bei should be happy. But the problem is, he took refuge in his number one enemy Cao Cao!

No, no, the second brother will definitely not turn his back on me, he is committed to Cao Ying, there must be some last resort.

On the one hand, he was worried about whether Guan Yu had really betrayed him, and on the other hand, he hoped that Guan Yu would temporarily succumb to Cao Ying because of his own hardships, these two thoughts were repeatedly entangled in Liu Bei's mind, making him feel conflicted. In the past few days, Liu Bei has been unable to sleep and eat.

"Lord...... Chen Gong came to discuss things with Liu Bei, but as soon as he entered the door, Chen Gong found that Liu Bei looked decadent again, and his eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly.

"My lord? Oh, what kind of lord am I now? Liu Bei smiled slightly bitterly and said self-deprecatingly.

In terms of military generals, after Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are not around, the generals he can use now are Mi Fang and the like, not even second-rate; Thesis minister, only Chen Gong is the only one under his command who is outstanding; In terms of troops, only 10,000 soldiers and horses can be commanded by himself now. In other words, in the whole world, there is that lord who deserves to be so aggrieved as himself?

"How can the lord be so arrogant, as long as the lord's ambition is still there, even if he sends people under the fence for a while, there will be a dragon for nine days in the future!" Seeing that Liu Bei was actually depressed, Chen Gong couldn't help but reprimand.

The lord chosen by my Chen Gongtai can be as schemless as Lu Bu, but he must not lose his ambition to dominate the world!

"Dragon Nine Days?" When Liu Bei heard this, he couldn't help but show a bitter smile again, "The third brother has no news, the second brother lives in Cao Ying, and I have lost both my hands and feet, how can I have a dragon time?" ”
