Cao Cao said to Cao Bao, who was at a loss: "Why did General Cao come to Pengcheng for you, and why didn't Liu Beijun come?" ”

"Lord Cao, this Pengcheng is my place in Xuzhou, so Tao Xuzhou asked me to deal with the aftermath!" Cao Bao said aggrievedly. The heart said: I knew that Cao Jun was ambushed here, and I didn't come to kill me! I really shouldn't have put myself in danger for a little profit, and I don't know if Cao Biao and the others ran away.

"Oh! I have no enmity with Xuzhou, but my father was killed by your people in Xuzhou, I avenge my father and hope that General Cao can understand! Cao Cao spoke again.

"Understood! Understand! Cao Bao hurriedly replied.

"Well, then the general said how Tao Xuzhou is going to compensate Yu Wu?"

"I don't know from Lord Zhou, my Cao family is willing to give a thousand taels of gold and 10,000 quintals of grain to redeem my life! I beg you to spare my life! Cao Bao pleaded.

When Cao Cao heard this, he said that this Cao Bao was quite valuable, and immediately said with a straight face: "Ten thousand taels of gold, one hundred thousand quintals of grain!" You can fix a book, and you can leave the day the thing is delivered! ”

Cao Bao felt a pain in his heart when he heard this, but he couldn't care about anything else in order to survive, so he wrote a letter at the moment.

Next, Cao Cao asked a lot of questions about Liu Beijun, but Cao Bao didn't know anything, Cao Cao saw that there was no useful information, so he asked Cao Bao to take him down to entertain him.

After Cao Bao left, Guo Jia, who was sitting next to Cao Cao, spoke: "It seems that Han Fei already knows my plan, he must have stopped Liu Bei from coming." ”

"Didn't Cao Bao say that Tao Qian sent him?" Cheng Yu frowned on the side.

"If I were Tao Qian, I wouldn't easily send such a pig-like person, I'm afraid that Liu Bei is unwilling to come, so I can only retreat!" Guo Jia said with a smile. It's just that they didn't expect that this trip was Cao Bao himself.

Cao Cao nodded after hearing this: "This time Liu Bei is lucky, next time I will definitely have a good competition with him." By the way, I received an urgent report from Chang'an yesterday, Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Fan Chou sent troops together to occupy Chang'an City, drove Lu Bu out of Chang'an, and Situ Wang Yun was martyred.

Guo Jia frowned after hearing this: "Lu Bu was driven out of Chang'an City? When did this happen, my lord? ”

"At the speed at which the news arrived, I'm afraid it was ten days ago. What's wrong with how to be filial piety? Cao Cao asked.

"My lord, maybe I'm too careful, I always feel that you should remind Wen Ruo to be careful of Lu Bu!" Guo Jia suggested.

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed. "Feng Xiao is too worried, then Lu Bu will not come to Yanzhou, Luoyang has Xu Huang in him and he can't pass at all, unless he can fly over with wings. Hahaha! ”

Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao, who was laughing, his brows furrowed, and he always felt as if he had ignored something. However, seeing that Cao Cao was so sure that Yanzhou was fine, he was also a little relieved.

It is said that Tao Qian feels a lot better today, perhaps because Cao Jun is in a good mood after retiring. In short, he was very happy today, so he ordered his subordinates to hold a banquet in the garden, and he wanted to drink and feast in the garden with Liu Bei. Although it is a cold winter, there are several red plums blooming in a corner of the garden, and drinking and appreciating plums is really a great joy in life.

When Liu Bei heard that Tao Qian had sent someone to invite him to a banquet, he couldn't help frowning. "Zicong, when will this one feast a day or two feasts a day end?" Liu Bei said to Han Fei, who was sitting on the side.

Han Fei had been stunned since just now, because he had also received the news that Chang'an City was broken. Although there is a discrepancy with the original history, the wheel of history has indeed turned back. Will the development be the same as before?

At this time, he suddenly heard Liu Bei calling him, so Han Fei raised his head and asked, "Lord, what are you calling me for?" ”

"Hey, Brother Gongzu invited me to drink and enjoy the plums! I don't know when I will be able to return to Qingzhou? Liu Bei sighed and said.

Han Fei said with a smile: "Count the days, then Cao Bao should have been captured by Cao Cao, and the days of the lord's rest assured and idle are coming to an end!" ”

"Will Cao Jun really ambush in Pengcheng?"

"Nine times out of ten, and this plan must be from Guo Jia's handiwork!" Han Fei said affirmatively.

"In that case, it's time for the Shadows to focus on this person!" Liu Bei muttered. As he spoke, he stood up and said, "Zicong, come with me to the banquet!" ”

"Ahh Don't you, my lord! Han Fei refused.

"What do you want, hurry up! Yesterday you excused yourself not to go, and today you will never be able to escape! Liu Bei said ruthlessly. Han Fei couldn't dodge it, so he had to listlessly follow Liu Bei to the state pastor's mansion.

Tables and chairs have been set up in the garden, and the three of them are seated, Tao Qian pointed to the red plum blossoms in full bloom in the corner of the wall and said, "Brother Xuande, please look, it is difficult to see red plums blooming in the north!" ”

"Yes, if it weren't for my brother, it's really hard to see such a beautiful red plum!" Liu Bei said with a smile.

"Haha! Recently, I feel that my body is a lot lighter, and I think I must have stayed with the virtuous brother for a long time, and I have been contaminated with the blessing of the virtuous brother! Come, you and I will drink this cup full. Tao Qian said happily.

After a toast with Liu Bei, Tao Qian suddenly said loudly: "How can there be no poetry for such a pleasant thing as drinking and appreciating plums, why don't you give a poem to Brother Xuande!" ”

Liu Bei sweated profusely when he heard this, and said in his heart that although I am okay with my literary style, this poem is still a lot worse, doesn't this make me ugly? was hesitating, and suddenly saw Han Fei sitting beside him, his eyes lit up and said, "Zicong, I order you to write a poem!" Thou hast come soon! ”

"What? Poetry? What the heck! Liu Bei successfully transferred the contradiction, and his mood suddenly improved, and he raised a glass to Tao Qian to drink. Han Fei was not in a beautiful mood, but after all, he was an elite who had gone through nine years of compulsory education, and after a little contemplation, he remembered a poem.

At this time, Liu Bei and Tao Qian drank the wine in the toast, and Han Fei coughed lightly and said, "Lord, there is a Yongmei poem below, and if you don't do it well, don't blame the lord." ”

"Oh, Zicong already has a poem? Come on! Liu Bei didn't expect Han Fei to be able to compose poems, so he felt that he had a lot of face and urged him to say it quickly.

Han Fei cleared his throat and said, "There are a few plums in the corner, and Ling Han opens them alone." I know that it is not snow, but there is a dark fragrance. There are four sentences in the whole poem, and they are easy to understand. However, after Han Fei finished singing, he found that Liu Bei and Tao Qian were both looking at him with an eager look, as if they were their prey.

Han Fei unconsciously shuddered and said, "Why does the lord look at me like this, but there is something wrong with the poems I made?" ”

"Ahh Zicong is talented, and he never found out that Zicong could write poetry in the past! ”

"Brother Xian, your military advisor is amazing, once this Yongmei poem comes out, it will be passed down through the ages!" Tao Qian said with emotion. Then Liu Bei and Tao Qian praised Han Fei together for a while, which made Han Fei blush, and made up his mind that he would never pretend to be B next time!
