Chapter 32 What is the Heavenly Rule?
And beyond the reach of ordinary people, and beyond the reach of ordinary people, the capable ministers who govern the world are also...
- Cao Cao
"Princess, the prince of the emperor is a peerless young handsome, how many rich and noble daughters, day and night want to see each other, princess, this is going to paint a portrait, give it to him!" The beautiful palace maid said guessingly.
The beautiful girl admired the painting of the three seriously, and finally said with some disappointment: "No... I still feel like something is missing, I always feel that no matter how hard I try to paint, I can't draw a work comparable to that of the demon painter, alas..."
"Childe has always wanted to find a demon painter, and since he was a child, he has wanted to break through himself, but... Now I am very conflicted, I want to know the true identity of the demon painter as soon as possible, but I don't want him to surface too early, because once his identity is revealed, there will be no place for him in the world, and he will definitely die! ”
The beautiful palace maid looked at the tangled girl, she seemed to only pay attention to the painting on the canvas, and said again: "The princess, do you plan to give this painting to the emperor?" ”
"Alas, don't send it yet, put it away, it's also ridiculed to give it to him..."The beautiful girl in white, put down the three-person painting, picked up the cyan brush, and said in the lower right corner: Give Changming one hundred and eight pairs!
"Oh..." The beautiful palace maid showed hesitation, and withdrew from the attic without saying anything, and sighed: "Whose heart is the princess?" ”
"My lord, here, here..." A high-pitched voice shouted from the city wall of Luoyang, and the young official's closed eyes suddenly opened, only to see a neat group of armor soldiers in the distance, wearing exquisite armor, coming towards Luoyang with an indifferent face.
The young official covered his eyebrows with his right hand and looked into the distance, and said with admiration on his face: "The ink is outside, the soldiers are inside, and the eight directions outside it have the taste of Qimen Dunjia, and the inner square circle array improves the defense, and the fish scale array improves the attack, so that the inside and outside are connected, it would have been full of flaws, but Lu Zhi personally led countless assassins and warriors to make up for the flaws, and it became the most dangerous place, the battle within the array!" It's really extraordinary..."
"No wonder, the army has gone all the way, without the slightest damage, just this formation, has scared away countless ill-intentioned people, the name of General Lu is not a wasted name, Jian Yong's strategy is not a false appearance, so in such a situation, what are you thinking?"
"Report! Captain Ride has arrived! A signal soldier shouted, and the young officer immediately showed a smile on his face, and clenched his fists towards the dusty carriageway: "Humble position, see Lord Cavalry!" ”
I saw a young man riding a tall horse in front of a carriage, he was more than seven feet long, with long beards in his thin eyes, and he was very young... It was Cao Cao, the newly appointed cavalry captain, who glanced at the young officials, and said with appreciation: "Well done, the surrounding people are dismissed, those who should be arrested have been caught, the city wall guards are unified with veterans for more than three years, and the enemy wants to sneak in, but it is also a miscalculation, so there is only this little distance left, if you can pass safely, you will be rewarded!" ”
"Master Xie Cao!" When the young official heard the reward, he showed great joy, and then the joy dissipated, and he spoke cautiously and cautiously.
Cao Cao frowned and looked at the army in the distance, and thought of something: "Shangjiu, Kang Long has regrets..."
Cao Cao didn't answer, and said with a sad face: "Shangjiu, Kanglong has regrets." The surplus will not last long, and the disaster of poverty will also be..."
The young official still looked puzzled and said, "Why are you sad? Cao Cao looked at him and said, "I don't know why? This situation reminds me of this sentence, and a sense of sadness gushes out, but it is actually difficult to be patient! ”
The young official seemed to think of something, and said tentatively: "Are you feeling guilty for today's massacre? ”
"So lowly and courageous, please be happy!" The young official clenched his fists deeply and said with admiration.
"Oh? How can you say that you are overjoyed..."Cao Cao's expression moved, his sadness disappeared, and he said with some interest.
The young official bowed deeply to his fists, and still admired and said: "If it weren't for the fact that the adults had insight into the enemy's situation, they had expected that Ma Yuanyi's subordinates would carry out a sneak attack in the Tiger Prison Pass, and now I am afraid that there will be a river of blood, and those innocent people are not one in ten, but the adults ordered their subordinates to kill one person for every ten people, so the traitors were in chaos, and they did not dare to make a mistake, and the people fled one after another, so ten people killed one person, and ten people could be protected..."
"Your Excellency should not blame yourself now, but rejoice, because of you! Tens of thousands of lives have been saved..."
Cao Cao's face showed a hint of helplessness and said: "That is, you know my mind, in the world, I don't know how many people have begun to abuse Cao as a butcher, an executioner, and a miserable minister..."
The young official said disapprovingly: "The adult's means can be called the ability to govern the world, how can some stupid people understand it, so please don't mind!" ”
"The powerful minister who rules the world is also..."
Cao Cao showed a thoughtful look, and finally the sadness on his face appeared again: "The soldiers have clouds, and the preparation of the week is slack; Common is not undoubted. Yin is within the yang, not in the yang pair. The sun is too cloudy. It means that when you are well prepared, you are more likely to be careless; What we are accustomed to is often unguarded. Secrets are often hidden in things that are public, not outside of things that are exposed. When things that are exposed to the public are taken to the extreme, they form the most secret state of latent state. ”
A hint of discoloration flashed in the young official's eyes, and he clenched his fists and retreated: "I don't understand..."Cao Cao suddenly laughed and said, "I don't understand either... What is the rule of heaven? ”
"Stop!" A loud scream appeared, tens of thousands of armor soldiers stopped suddenly, indifferently looked at the ancient city of Luoyang located in front of them, and then a group of cavalry appeared, forming a wandering trend, surrounding Lu Zhi and Jian Yong, as well as Ma Yuanyi in the carriage, plus some black-clothed guards, quickly towards the Luoyang City Gate.
Cao Cao greeted him from a distance, hugged his fists and laughed and admired: "Old General Lu is hard! The method of flying around the city is really exquisite, and it is dazzling to look at, and I don't see the gist of it! ”
Lu Zhi also showed admiration towards Cao Cao and said: "Ten people kill one person, protect ten thousand... Let the old man admire, but also let this guy next to me, all the way to praise you, especially when you enter the tiger prison and don't see a person or a thing, you can come to Luoyang so quickly, you... Lots of credit! ”
Cao Cao politely hugged his fists towards Jian Yong, and finally looked at Ma Yuanyi in the cage, his expression became solemn and said: "This way, we are extremely cautious, even if we have absolute strength and the strongest sergeant in the world, we still dare not be careless, now that we are about to enter the city, we must not relax, and the next road is the most important!" ”
