Chapter 123: Liu Bei's Rebellion (I)
Holding the baby in his arms, Gao Shun's face was filled with a happy smile.
Cao Ming successfully gave birth to a son for himself a year ago, and Gao Shun named him Gao Hong, and his nickname was Unyielding. Gao Shun hopes that he will grow up with great ambitions and a future, and have the will and courage to move forward with perseverance and courage.
It is said that when Gao Hong was born, Cao Cao wanted to name his nephew on a whim, and it is said that even the words he took when he became an adult had been thought of more than ten years in advance. Regarding this matter, Gao Shun insisted on not allowing it and resolutely resisted, even if the other party was his uncle and boss, he must not give up the naming rights of his eldest son to him. In the end, after some fighting, the two sides could only take a step back and reach a compromise. If Cao Ming gave birth to a second son for Gao Shun, then Cao Cao named him.
Three months ago, Guo Cui also gave birth to a daughter, and Gao Shun was naturally overjoyed and named her Gao Qian.
And now Gao Shun is holding his daughter Gao Qian in his arms.
"Xiao Qian'er, be good, call Dad." Gao Shun only felt that at this moment, he was about to overflow with fatherly love, and he saw that all he had on his face was an amiable smile.
"Wow——!" Unexpectedly, the little girl pouted and cried loudly.
"Look at you, you're scared of the kids!" Guo Cui, who was on the side, saw her daughter crying, and hurriedly hugged her from Gao Shun's arms.
Gao Shun only felt very innocent, obviously he didn't do anything, is his face so scary?
"Also, what did Dad mean just now, don't teach your children something inexplicable." Guo Cui coaxed his daughter in his arms while continuing to complain to Gao Shun.
Gao Shun scratched his head, yes, it seems that there is no such thing as dad at this time, they are all called daddy. However, this seems to be a bit troublesome to explain, Gao Shun laughed twice, and stopped fighting with Guo Cui.
Although Guo Cui is now a mother, her personality has not changed much, and she is still as arrogant as a girl.
I saw Guo Cui coaxed for a while, but Gao Qian still cried non-stop.
"Could it be that you're hungry?" After raising a child for three months, Guo Cui still has some experience.
"Then let's breastfeed." Gao Shun said casually.
"Ah, then you should avoid it." Guo Cui said with a red face.
"No need, it's all old husbands and wives, what's the shame."
"Get out!"
Under Guo Cui's tough attitude, Gao Shun finally stepped out of Guo Cui's room.
Cut, leave if you leave, you don't want me, I still have Ah Ming and Hong'er.
Gao Shun comforted himself a few words, and then walked towards Cao Ming's room.
On the way to Cao Ming's room, Gao Shun and Diao Chan meet. Diao Chan gestured to Gao Shun, and then left on his own.
Gao Shun pursed his lips, although Diao Chan's attitude towards himself was still ignorant of him, but it was much better than always deliberately avoiding himself a year ago. After all, living under the same roof, it is impossible to not say a word or touch each other once. Now Diao Chan meets him again, although he does not behave kindly, but at least he is not as cold as he was at the beginning.
————————————————————————————————
The war between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao was on the verge of breaking out, but before that, there was a small episode.
After Yuan Shao became the duke, he sent a letter to Yuan Shu's office, asking him to go north to join him in order to strengthen his strength. The brothers Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao were originally at odds because of the dispute between their concubines, but Yuan Shu has been miserable recently, not to mention being repeatedly bullied by Cao Cao, and he also folded the general Ji Ling, and his strength is not as good as before. After thinking about it again, Yuan Shu still agreed to Yuan Shao's request, sent troops north, and went to Yecheng to rely on the other party.
If Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are allowed to meet, then Yuan Shao's strength will undoubtedly go to the next level. Cao Cao then made a decision that Yuan Shu's army must be intercepted.
At this time, Liu Bei, who had been living in Xuchang City last year and had never moved, suddenly took the initiative to ask for help, expressing his willingness to take on the task of blocking Yuan Shu.
Gao Shun's arrival can be said to have added many changes, such as Yuan Shao's reversal. And Gao Shun's crossing also made many of the original historical events not happen, such as the edict that should have appeared after Xu Tian's hunting, and the subsequent cooking wine on heroes, these two plots have not happened so far, Dong Cheng and other Hanchen are still living well in the world, and there is not so much nonsense about dragons and heroes between Cao Cao and Liu Bei.
After Yuan Shao became the duke, making the Han Emperor realize that he could only rely on Cao Cao now, no matter how dissatisfied he was in his heart in the future, it is estimated that he would not issue an edict such as eradicating Cao Cao. As for Liu Bei, after asking Cao Cao for Diao Chan last time, Cao Cao's impression of him has dropped a notch, and naturally he will not bother to invite him to come to cook wine and talk about heroes.
Therefore, Liu Bei's initiative to request to attack Yuan Shu this time was also slightly unexpected by Cao Cao. However, at present, his main energy is focused on Yuan Shao, and he really doesn't have much time to pay attention to Yuan Shu, since he Liu Bei has the leisure to deal with Yuan Shu, why should he refuse?
After Liu Bei got Cao Cao's promise, without saying a word, he took Guan, Zhang, Chen Gong and others, ordered 20,000 horses, and went straight to Yuan Shu's place. It is said that most of the 25,000 soldiers and horses are Liu Bei's old troops in Xuzhou City, and only a small part are Cao Cao's men and horses used to monitor Liu Bei's movements.
It is said that after Guo Jia learned that Cao Cao agreed to Liu Bei and ordered him to send troops to fight against Yuan Shu, he was in a hurry and hurriedly went to meet Cao Cao.
"The lord let Liu Bei lead the army out, but he returned to the mountain. Today, Liu Xuande's army is mostly his old Xuzhou department, if his heart changes, it will be too late to regret! When Guo Jia stated to Cao Cao the danger of Liu Bei's troops, he also secretly regretted it in his heart. In the past, Liu Bei begged Cao Cao for Diao Chan, and his plot was to make Cao Cao despise him, which Guo Jia saw through. Since then, Guo Jia has also vaguely revealed to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao didn't pay much attention to it at that time, and Liu Bei has not taken action since then, and over time, Guo Jia no longer pays more attention to Liu Bei.
Unexpectedly, Liu Bei was so well disguised, he didn't show the slightest ambition for a whole year, and even those who were as cunning as Guo Jia relaxed their vigilance under his disguise. However, when the opportunity came, Liu Bei did not hesitate and quickly made a move to get out of Cao Cao's control.
"Not really." After listening to Guo Jia's words, Cao Cao's face was a little solemn, as if he didn't believe it, and he seemed to be shocked.
"I have ordered Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao to accompany the army to monitor Liu Bei. Among Liu Bei's 20,000 people, 8,000 were from Zhu Ling and Lu Zhao. With the two of them supervising the army, Liu Bei will not have any dissenting intentions. Besides, it has been less than a day since I sent Liu Bei to send troops, how can I retract the preface so quickly? Holding his cheeks and pondering for a while, Cao Cao finally decided that Liu Bei would not betray him.
Guo Jia sighed lightly, I have to say that Liu Bei's camouflage and deception are too strong.
