After Zhao Xu was crowned marquis, the lord was in the liehou marquis, and therefore many civil and military generals in the court came to tie up, although there were many before, but Zhao Xu was mostly in the military camp, and there was no way to tie the knot, but after this marquis, it was different, because of the title status, after all, it was usually necessary to entertain visitors, and it was necessary to go to court every day.

sealed Zhao Xu and others, so that they would be grateful to themselves, and they would inevitably serve the Han with all their hearts, and moreover, they sold Liu Bei's affection, why not! Liu Xie is still very open to the visit of the ministers of the court and the central government to Zhao Xu, no wonder, after all, Liu Xie's kid is still young and not proficient in thinking, but the princes in the world don't know, and now the government can be said to be basically in Liu Bei's hands, and the Son of Heaven has changed the princes!

Wang Yun and Yang Biao and other old ministers are mostly shrewd people, otherwise they will not be able to mix with the high positions in the court, and occasionally hear rumors, it is inevitable that they are a little worried, but they think that Liu Bei is the uncle of the Han Emperor, and they will not have any dissenting intentions, so they just think about it in their hearts.

On this day, just after the morning court, Zhao Xu stretched his waist, walked home slowly, and muttered: "Damn, the last court was also troublesome, like going to school in the later world, especially those Wenchen, trivial things were also reported one by one, and Rory was so rambling that it dragged on all morning." Fortunately, it was right that I didn't choose to be the emperor when I came here, if we are all so tired, no wonder the emperor has always had a short life......"

As soon as he walked to an alley that was still being renovated, suddenly, Zhao Xu's eyes flashed coldly, and he shouted coldly: "Dare to ask where your friend came from?" I guess it's been a long time! It's fun to have friends from afar! I'll see you here, and please report it! ”

As soon as Zhao Xu's words fell, he heard two sounds of breaking the air, and the secret was not good, so he hurriedly went to the ground for a somersault, and when he looked back, there were two arrows stuck in the ground. When he was busy looking around, he suddenly saw a black shadow flashing on the houses next to the street, and two black-clothed people jumped down and were holding crossbows, pointing at Zhao Xu! Looking at this posture, you can see at a glance that it is Lianjiazi, an assassin! Zhao Xu reacted immediately.

At this moment, two crossbow arrows shot towards Zhao Xu, Zhao Xu was taken aback, fortunately, his brother is not a vegetarian, his eyes are fast, and he kicked the stool on the ground up at the moment, "Bang" The two arrows at the moment frightened more than ten people in the distance and shouted and fled, at this moment, I saw four more people jumping out of the roof, holding machetes, jumping straight to Zhao Xu, Zhao Xu shouted, jumped up, stepped on the wall and jumped directly to the two black-clothed men holding crossbow arrows, the two black-clothed men were about to reload the crossbow arrows, and suddenly saw Zhao Xu jumping, Ju was taken aback, and before he could react, Zhao Xu had already kicked two feet, and directly kicked one person several meters away.

Obviously, these assassins didn't expect Zhao Xu to have such a swift skill, and another assassin hurriedly threw the crossbow at Zhao Xu, and immediately drew his knife to face each other, Zhao Xu flashed the flying crossbow, saw the assassin slash over, flashed to the side, grabbed his arm, and kicked the man to the ground with a "pounce". Hey! Fortunately, Lao Tzu has also learned to grab the white blade empty-handed, otherwise I am afraid that I would have asked for your Tao today.

Several other assassins saw that Zhao Xu had lost two people in a row, and they were not very panicked, they still rushed over, in the face of these assassins who wanted their own lives, Zhao Xu naturally had no polite reason, he held the knife in one hand, and rushed to an assassin like lightning to slash the door in front of him, and cut one, and the others did not give up, still killing Zhao Xu.

"Look for death!" Zhao Xu scolded angrily, I have to say that the skills of these assassins are really not ordinary soldiers, but it is a pity that the people they want to assassinate are the martial arts taught by the martial arts of later generations of soldiers and peerless generals such as Zhao Yun, although neither of them is perfect, but it is more than enough to deal with these characters! In the face of the killing of the three people, Zhao Xu roared angrily, rose up to his might, immediately counterattacked, fought for two rounds, kicked an assassin to the ground, and then made up a knife to hack to death, another assassin was taken aback, stunned, only to see a flash of white light, couldn't help but slow down half a beat, and the head had already landed.

The other three assassins saw it and hurriedly left, and Zhao Xu was trying to chase after him. "Phew! Where to go. Before the words fell, I saw a man dressed in white kicking over the two of them, it was Zhao Yun. The other person was startled and was about to run, only to see two strong men, one black and one yellow, jumping out from both sides, holding down the assassin, and suddenly unable to move, needless to say, these two people were Zhou Cang and Wang Yong. They were followed by a few people who quickly grabbed the Assassins.

"Big brother, are you okay?" Before Zhao Xu could speak, Zhao Yun had already asked.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, huh! Good guy, you want to kill me, eh! Leave a living mouth and take it back to torture to extract a confession. Zhao Xu shouted. suffered an assassination, and no one would be in a good mood if they were replaced.

"No! Checkmate. Zhou Cang waited, and then escorted several assassins back.

"Huh! By the way, Zilong, didn't you go back first? How did you get here? After Zhao Xu finished ordering, he asked.

"Oh! Brother, you didn't go back, sister-in-law asked us to come to you back for dinner, but I didn't expect to just walk here, I saw many people shouting 'help', I asked, I heard that it was the eldest brother you were assassinated, so I hurried over. Zhao Yun obviously also had a false alarm, and said relaxedly.

"Hey! It's strange that someone came to assassinate me. Zhao Xu frowned and said suspiciously.

"Big brother, could it be that Cao Cao, you forgot, last time we were attacked by a large army when we were in Bowangpo, didn't you say that it was very likely that Cao Cao and Yuan Shu joined forces?"

"I said so last time, but this time it's different, if Cao Cao wants to assassinate me, he will definitely not only send such a few wastes, if Yuan Shu, such a big and far away send six people to kill me, he doesn't have that IQ, huh...... I'll have to think about it. Zhao Xu's face was solemn and fell into thought.

However, he said that after Cao Cao met Yanzhou, he thought that Liu Bei was gaining power, and it was absolutely impossible for him to gain the upper hand politically, and he could only confront Liu Bei if he went abroad to expand his territory.

Just when Cao Cao was preparing to show his talents, the heavens were not beautiful, and one of Cao Cao's most important strategists, Xi Zhicai, died of serious illness this year. Seeing Cao Cao crying sadly, Xun Yu couldn't bear it, so he recommended his friend Guo Jia to Cao Cao. For Xun Yu's words, Cao Cao also trusted more, so he summoned Guo Jia to try Guo Jia's ability, after some discussion, Cao Cao was deeply impressed by his strategy, and immediately shouted: "The person who can help Cao achieve a great cause is you Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao!" ”

At Guo Jia's suggestion, Cao Cao gave heavy gifts, allied with Han Sui in the west, and established a good relationship.

On this day, Zhao Xu heard the report of his subordinate sentry that the Son of Heaven had crowned Zhao Xu as a liege, and his status was similar to his own, so he couldn't help but be angry and worried.

"Lord, please don't be anxious" Guo Jia twisted his beard in his hand, seeing Cao Cao so anxious, he also sighed, the lord is a person with outstanding strategy, and he can be called one of the best in the world, but he thinks too much about things, although it is good, but it is not a good thing in terms of big strategy. Seeing that the lord is so troubled, and the person who is a confidant dies, I will do my best to assist him! "Lord, there is no need to worry so much about this matter, although Zhao Xu is a marquis, Liu Bei is powerful, will he definitely be able to control the world?"

When Cao Cao heard this, he said in surprise: "What does Feng Xiao mean by this?" Isn't it, although there is a big chaos today, but the people still have their hearts towards Han, Liu Bei has the Son of Heaven, this is a big help, and Zhao Xu broke Lu Bu in Xuzhou and occupied Xuzhou, and now it can be said that he owns half of the country, and his subordinates Zhao Xu and others are all marquis, and their prestige is far and wide, and their time and place are favorable, so how can they not worry? ”

"The lord is wrong with this!" Guo Jia smiled slightly and said: "Lord, this Zhao Xu and others broke Lu Bu and received the title of the marquis, it is a yang scheme, although for all the princes, it should be Liu Bei's plan, but in fact, it is the intention of the Son of Heaven!" The Son of Heaven is Liu Bei as the emperor's uncle, relying on him everywhere, I really don't know that Liu Bei's ambitions are not small, and the position of the Son of Heaven has existed in name only, in this case, why don't we make mistakes, since Liu Bei sits in the north, he also wants to use the power of the Son of Heaven to command the world; We can first pretend to be obedient, send gold and silver to make friends with Liu Bei, secretly expand our territory, recuperate, and wait for our wings to be full, before we can compete with Liu Bei. Cao Cao has always been suspicious, so he always retreated from his entourage when discussing important matters, and ordered Xu Chu to guard the surroundings. Cao Cao privately summoned Guo Jia to discuss, and Guo Jia didn't have to pay too much attention to anything.

Cao Cao carefully summed it up, it was indeed good, "Having said that, but now that Xuzhou has been returned to Liu Bei, we only have ......"

Guo Jia also knew that Cao Cao liked to fight dumb fans, so he shook his head helplessly, but he could only cater to him: "There is no way out of the north and east, it is better to go to the south, west, Han Sui in the west, attack Liu Biao in the south, and then map Xichuan and Jiangdong, and then fight with Liu Bei!" ”

"Haha, Feng Xiao knows my heart well, and I am really a ghost! Ha ha! If you are filial, God will help me succeed, and it is really like a tiger with wings! If you had known Fengxiao earlier, Liu Bei would never have taken the lead, so that there is now a situation! Hey, hateful, hateful Cao and Feng Xiao met too late! Cao Cao's strategists, only Xun Yu really knows his heart, but Xun Yu is mostly smart in government affairs, and he is not so powerful in this military affairs, fortunately he recommended Guo Jia as a military genius, Cao Cao was also extremely happy in his heart, and stepped forward with a big laugh, grabbed Guo Jia's hands, and sighed.

The lord is also right, if I Guo Jia was here in the early years, I coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, how could I let that Liu Bei occupy it! Seeing Cao Cao praising himself so much, Guo Jia was also moved by his true feelings, and he was very grateful, and said emotionally: "Jia has won the grace of the lord so well, even if he dies, it is difficult to repay one or two, but if the lord does not give up, Jiading will use what he has learned in his life to help the lord achieve hegemony!" ”

"Haha! If you can help each other with filial piety, why worry about the great cause! It's just that Liu Bei's subordinate Zhao Xu used soldiers like a god, but Liu Bei relied on it, and a certain and Yuan Shu jointly attacked and killed Zhao Xu before, but they still failed to kill him, and injured many generals in vain, alas! Zhao Xu is not dead, and there is no place to live! "When I thought of my own strategy, what I had thought of was taken by Zhao Xu everywhere, as if living in Zhao Xu's shadow, the arrogant Cao Cao would be willing!

"Lord, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, Zhao Xu and his people just look at his achievements, he knows that this person is extraordinary, extremely difficult to deal with, not to mention that Zhao Xu is now in full swing, the Son of Heaven and Liu Bei trust him very much, it is not feasible to assassinate him rashly by ordinary means, it is better to wait for the opportunity!" If you want to kill Zhao Xu now, I'm afraid I'm crazy! Not to mention that Zhao Xu himself is strong in martial arts, and he once defeated Lu Bu, not to mention that his soldiers are strong and strong, and his brother Zhao Yunzhi's martial arts, the lord You have also seen it before, and the loss of Bowangpo in the bloody battle is not big enough?

"Indeed, it is indeed difficult to deal with Zhao Xu, not to mention that he himself is both civil and military, just his younger brother Zhao Yun is strong in martial arts and invincible heroes; and his wife, who is not only talented and beautiful, but also strong in martial arts, alas! I hope God can help me get rid of Zhao Xu! Cao Cao thought about it, and couldn't help but think of Zhao Xue's beauty, and couldn't help but think crookedly.

Guo Jia saw that Cao Cao's mind was drifting, so he hurriedly pulled the topic back, leaned closer and said: "If the lord wants to deal with Zhao Xu, there is a good opportunity now, as long as his teammates give him, he can kill people with a knife, no matter whether he succeeds or fails, he doesn't know who instructs him!" ”
