Chapter 219: Headaches (2nd Update)
Cao Cao sat behind the handsome case with a serious expression, because what was going to be discussed next was a very serious issue.
"How should Liu Bei be arranged, I have been hesitating for the past two days, whether to let him enter the city?"
In fact, Guo Xuncheng and the three of them have all considered this problem, but they don't know what Cao Cao thinks, but at this time, they haven't let Liu Bei enter the city, obviously they don't want him to enter the city, and they haven't driven him away until now, obviously they still want him to enter the city a little.
People are really conflicted sometimes, especially when they encounter big things, how to choose, is undoubtedly a very headache, because the decisions you make next are likely to affect your life.
Xun Yu blinked, ready to speak, he didn't like Liu Bei very much, he heard that Liu Bei was eating and drinking everywhere, he looked down on him, Xun Yu was after Xunzi, and it was inevitable that he would look down on others after the famous family.
Xun Zizun is the king, domineering, he agrees with the original evil of human nature, I don't know if Xun Yu was affected by Xunzi's thoughts, but in any case, from Xun Yu's attitude towards things, he was still affected, he was still in favor of killing Liu Bei, so he said: "Lord, Liu Bei, this person, the ambition is not small, it can be seen from his acceptance of Xuzhou, I feel that I can't raise a tiger for trouble, and I should cut the grass and eradicate the roots early." ”
Cao Cao took a long breath, had his own thoughts in his heart, and fell his eyes on Cheng Yu, and said, "Zhongde, what do you think?" ”
Cheng Yu arched his hand and said: "Lord, I feel that although Lu Bu was defeated, he retreated to Xiapi, we can also use Liu Bei, and after Lu Bu is destroyed, it is not too late to kill." ”
Cao Cao took another breath, looked at Guo Jia, and said, "Fengxiao, what do you think?" ”
Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "Lord, I think that Liu Bei can't be killed, Liu Bei is a loyal minister of the court, and he has sent troops to fight Yuan Shu, if he is killed, how will the candidates in the world feel?" Besides, even if Liu Bei is ambitious, it is difficult for him to become a climate, and now he can't even eat enough, so why talk about anything else? After all Xuzhou is captured, Liu Bei should be defended, but he will not be given military power, and a henchman will be sent to control Liu Bei, so that the hearts of all the people in the world can be calmed. ”
Cao Cao listened to Guo Jia's words, his face was full of sorrow, and said: "It's not a secret, Cao's method coincides with Fengxiao, Liu Bei has always boasted of benevolence and righteousness, he is a well-known good man in people's minds, kill him, won't I Cao Cao become a sinner?" ”
Cao Cao said, called left and right, and immediately let Liu Bei enter the city.
Liu Bei has been eating for several days relying on the food relieved by Cao Cao, Qian Huai has always been in charge of the distribution of food, and food, although he cooks deliciously, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, no matter how good his cooking skills are, it is useless, in just a few days, he has lost a lot of weight, not to mention how bitter he is.
Liu Bei called Qian Huai to ask, there was not much food, there were two days at most, considering that it would take a few days to defect to others, he suggested that he should lead the troops to set off immediately.
Liu Bei looked at the direction of Xuzhou by the river, was looking at the eyes, hated to look at the blind eyes, just when he was desperate to leave, finally saw a horse gradually rushing, and after a while he arrived in front of him, this person came to the front, immediately clasped his hands into fists, knelt down on one knee, and said: "General Liu, don't go, Lord Sikong, please enter the city." ”
When Liu Bei heard this, the stone in his heart was put down, and everyone was so happy that they almost jumped up, and they could finally go into the city to eat a full meal, and everyone didn't think about anything else, just to eat a full meal, that's all.
Liu Bei returned to Xuzhou with the remnants of the defeated army, everything was arranged, and he brought important people to meet Cao Cao, Qian Huai felt that he couldn't hang on his face, so he simply didn't come, he was afraid that after seeing Cao Cao, Cao Cao would sneer at him, he felt that his face was dull, so he simply avoided it, and Liu Bei did not force him.
Everyone knelt down to worship Cao Cao, even Liu Bei also worshipped, if you don't worship, you can't do it, people are commonplace, and the official is a big one, and the official is several levels old, so that's it.
Cao Cao waited for Liu Bei to kneel, then ran down from above, grabbed Liu Bei's arm, and said, "Oh, Brother Xuande, why be polite, we are all old acquaintances, and we don't have to kneel when we see Cao in the future." ”
Zhang Fei saw Cao Cao playing hypocrisy, his mouth was almost reaching the back of his head, he had never seen such a shameless person as Cao Cao, people knelt down, he said this kind of cool words, why didn't he say kneel in advance when he didn't kneel?
Everyone saw it in their eyes, and their hearts were like mirrors, knowing Cao Cao's hypocrisy, but they couldn't stretch him or flatten him.
Liu Bei felt that Cao Cao was hypocritical, but he still said with a smile: "It should be so, it should be so." ”
Cao Cao smiled and made the others stand up as well.
Cao Cao said: "Xuande, you have lost weight in the past few days, is it that the food Cao gave you is not enough to eat?" ”
Liu Bei smiled and said, "Enough, enough." ”
Now that I'm in the city, it's easy to say anything.
Zhang Fei looked at Cao Cao and asked this, and wanted to come up and shout, Cao Cao, what the hell are you doing? Now I ask if there is enough food, why did I go early, and I left us to dry by the river for a few days, and we didn't eat well or sleep well, what did it mean?
Cao Cao didn't care about other people's expressions, and continued: "Xuande, you also know that the city has just been stable in the past few days, and there are too many things to deal with, so I forgot about you. ”
Liu Bei knew that Cao Cao was lying, and he couldn't say anything, so he could only say: "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Cao Cao continued: "Brother Xuande, to be honest, for Xuzhou, I am not as familiar with you, Lu Bu has fled to Xiapi now, how is the city of Xiapi, how much food is in the city, you should know all of this, right?" ”
Liu Beicheng said with trepidation: "Lord Hui Sikong, when I was in charge of Xuzhou in Xia, I knew a little bit about it, but recently I was under the command of Lu Bu, and I didn't know it in Xia, but Xiapi City was extremely strong, and I was afraid that it would not be easy to attack hard." ”
Cao Cao gasped after hearing this, and said: "Hey, I'm afraid that the city is strong, to be honest, attacking the city is the next strategy, Brother Xuande doesn't know what tricks can break Lu Bu?" ”
Liu Bei lowered his head and said: "I'm ashamed, if you talk about resourcefulness, you can't compare to one thousandth of Lord Sikong, and I can't think of any countermeasures for the time being, and I hope Lord Sikong will forgive me." ”
When Zhang Fei heard this, he immediately said: "Lord Sikong, I think Lao Zhang can attack the city directly, anyway, Lord Sikong has strong soldiers and horses, and there are 100,000 soldiers and horses, and it is effortless to set foot in a Xiapi County." ”
Cao Cao listened to Zhang Fei's words, and he didn't care, but said: "Yide is a good plan." ”
