Chapter 15: Goodbye Cao Cao
In Xudu, Zhang Quan is also a small person with a face, although the official position is not very big, but the size is also a general, in this troubled world, who knows which cloud will rain, maybe one day there will be creation, one step to the sky, so, there are many people who come and go with Zhang Quan...
In the past few days, Zhang Quan's mansion can be regarded as a good city, as soon as the news of Xu Tian's engagement walks out, it will naturally attract the attention of most people, and they have come to congratulate him, Zhang Quan has been busy with Xu Tian for the past few days, Xu Tian is also very happy, even if he knows that these people who came are not for him at all, he doesn't care about these, all he cares about is Murong Hanyan...
On this day, the people who came to give gifts escorted by two teams of soldiers carried three large boxes in front of them, followed by five slightly smaller boxes, and the people who carried the boxes plus the soldiers who escorted them, there were also twenty or thirty people, this scene directly caused the side eyes of the people around, and they all started to discuss.
"This team seems to be very special, and the origin must be not small."
"Yes, you see, there are guards to escort you. General Zhang seems to be very valued by the above..."
"Well, yes, it must be someone from above, General Zhang has a bright future..."
……………
There was a lot of discussion around, Zhang Quan and Xu Tian were also attracted by the lively sound here, and also saw the formation of gifts, although Zhang Quan was suspicious, I don't know which adult above gave it, but for the discussion around him, and obviously to his own congratulatory voice very enjoyable, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face...
I saw that among the salute teams that came, a person who was obviously the leader stepped forward a few steps, clasped his fists and said:
"May I ask who is Mr. Xu Tian?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of discussion around, and they all looked at the people next to Zhang Quan, Xu Tian was also stunned, and then hugged his fists and saluted back:
"In Xia Xu Tian, may I ask the general..."
"On the orders of the prime minister, I came to congratulate Mr. Xu on his engagement on behalf of the prime minister, these are the prime minister's congratulatory gifts, please take a look at Mr. Xu!"
The visitor pointed to the boxes with ceremonial flowers in the back and said.
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar all around, and everyone who came around knew that this was Zhang Quan's friend's engagement joy, and the woman was Zhang Quan's sister, and the reason why they came was entirely because of Zhang Quan, even if the guards escorted the salute team, everyone should think that this was Zhang Quan's face, but what the person said just now was given to Xu Tian, and it was the meaning of the prime minister, what does this mean, it goes without saying, everyone turned their eyes to Xu Tian, and their eyes were full of kindness and deep envy...
Maybe all this happened a little fast, so that Zhang Quan didn't react a little, at this time his face was slightly gloomy, but he instantly recovered to the original, full of smiles, but he had indescribable emotions for Xu Tian in his heart, I don't know whether it was envy, jealousy, or hatred...
Xu Tian was also quite surprised at first, but then he thought clearly about the cause and effect, the failure of this expedition confirmed his original opinion, Cao Cao must be quite interested in himself, sent someone to give gifts, I am afraid that there is another meaning, let the gift giver say his intention in public, and told everyone that he was favored by the prime minister, to give himself enough face, and the prime minister gave gifts, as a subordinate, out of courtesy, he must thank him for the gift, so he has won over himself, and he has to see him by himself, politely and gracefully, killing two birds with one stone, Xu Tian sighed secretly, he admired Cao Cao very much, Xu Tian sometimes wondered if he could become a person like Cao Cao...
"Please also ask Mr. Xu to take an inventory to confirm that it is correct, and it is better to go back to his life in the future!"
The person came and said, clasping his fists.
"No need. I also asked the general to tell the prime minister that he would go to thank him tomorrow. ”
After sending off the gift team, Xu Tian also lost no time in giving the leader some gold and silver, after coming here, Xu Tian also learned a lot, many times, money is more useful than many things, after the gift team, the later time seems a little dull. After a busy day, Xu Tian returned to his room early, originally planning to go to Murong Hanyan after he was busy, but now he has to think about it and go to see Cao Cao...
The next day, Xu Tian went out early, because of the experience of going to the Prime Minister's Mansion for the first time, Xu Tian came here again with a familiar car, and there was a young man in a green cloth at the door, who seemed to be waiting for him. Before he could speak, the man asked respectfully:
"Mr. Xu, the little one has been waiting for a long time, please come with me!"
Xu Tian followed this person, walked all the way, and entered the slightly familiar third courtyard, the young man did not enter, but respectfully retreated at the door, and just a few steps away, Xu Tian saw Cao Cao walking towards him, brushed his hands and laughed:
"Mr. Xu is here, hey, look at you, last time Mr. persuaded me, I didn't listen to Mr. to have the current situation, Mr. is talented, don't blame me."
Xu Tian was very emotional, what a character Cao Cao was, he would say such things so generously, attributing all the mistakes to himself and the benefits to others, worthy of being a great hero of this era. Xu Tian said very sincerely:
"The prime minister's words are serious, things on the battlefield are changing rapidly, but it is not a villain who can be swayed by a few words, and the villain is ashamed."
Cao Cao laughed, took Xu Tian's hand and walked into the house, the two sat facing each other, Xu Tian looked a little cramped, after all, the status difference between the two was too big, so there would naturally be a lot of pressure, but Cao Cao seemed very calm. said to Xu Tian with a smile:
"Mr. will not have to live in Zhang Quan's house in the future, I have already arranged it, Mr. will be brought over to the residence later, if you need anything, just say it, you don't have to be polite. I neglected Mr. before, it was my fault, in short, in the future, with me, I won't let Mr. suffer!! ”
Along the way, Xu Tian thought a lot, he knew that Cao Cao would win him over, and he was also ready to take refuge in Cao Cao, because Cao Cao was his best choice, but he didn't expect that Cao Cao valued himself so much, Xu Tian took a deep breath, stood up and bowed deeply to Cao Cao.
"Meet my lord..."
