Chapter 113: Meet Cao Zhi
Hearing Xu Shu say such a thing, Pang Tong and Liu Feng both looked at each other, both of them were not very familiar with Cao Cao, but they all knew that Cao Cao was a big hero in the world, and now he was called a strange person by Xu Shu, how could the two not be surprised.
"Cao Cao was very fond of Cao Chong, the son born to his concubine in his early years, that Cao Chong was also very smart since he was a child, but the fate of heaven is unpredictable, Cao Chong did not know what kind of strange disease he suffered from before he was ten years old, and he died with a whimper, in addition to Cao Chong, Cao Cao still has many children, but the eldest son Cao Ang was killed by Zhang Xiu's troops as early as Wancheng, and the rest of them can be of great use, only Cao Pi, Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi were born to his wife, and the three of them ......"
Xu Shu said that at this time, Liu Feng couldn't help but ask: "People say that Cao Pi is a person who is both civil and military, and he has a bit of Cao Cao's early style, why didn't Cao Cao entrust Cao Pi with important tasks, but he couldn't let go of Cao Zhi?" ”
Xu Shu heard this: "The strange thing that Shu said before is this, Cao Pi is older, and Wen Tao Wu has some gains, but his scheming is also a little deep, Cao Cao himself is a scheming person, Cao Pi every time in front of Cao Cao to scheming, Cao Cao is a little disliked, but Cao Zhi this person, young and frivolous, good at poetry and writing, the mind is quite smart, but not good at governing the country, Cao Cao somehow, just want Cao Zhi to inherit his mantle, so every time the war will take Cao Zhi by his side, in order to let the subordinate generals and generals are familiar with Cao Zhi, In the future, I will be able to help you with good life. ”
After hearing this, Liu Feng pondered for a moment and asked, "Based on what Yuan Zhi has seen in Cao Cao's array these days, how is Cao Zhi a person?" ”
As soon as Xu Shu heard Liu Feng ask about Cao Zhi's personality, his heart moved, he thought for a moment, and replied: "Cao Zhi is indeed a talented person, and he is not as scheming as Cao Pi, but according to his opinion, I am afraid that he is not suitable to inherit Cao Cao's position. ”
"If Cao Zhi is really such a person, then it is very much in line with me!" When Liu Feng heard this, he turned out to be happy, and said to himself.
"Ziwei doesn't want to ......" Xu Shu and Pang Tong glanced at each other, swallowed back halfway through the words, the two of them immediately knew what Liu Feng was thinking, and also knew how shocked the other party was, Liu Feng was just Liu Bei's son at this time, and Liu Bei's generals were just such a bold idea in their hearts, how could they not be shocked.
"Yes, as early as learning that Cao Zhi followed Cao Cao to go to Chibi this time, Feng had some vague ideas in his heart, but when he really saw Cao Zhi in Cao Cao's array, Feng Cai finally made up his mind, seeing that Cao Cao's beard was already gray at this time, even if he was dominating the Central Plains, how long would he have? This general trend of the world must be in our generation, so Feng Cai temporarily decided not to cut off Cao Cao's head, but to temporarily detain Cao Zhi here. ”
"That Cao Zhi is very arrogant, even in Cao Cao's array, he is only good friends with Yang Xiu, the main book, because Yang Xiu and Cao Zhi are general, they are both rare talents, Ziwei is a military general, Cao Zhi is quite a little unable to look down on ordinary generals, so he wants to use Cao Zhi to restrain Cao Caoyi, if you want to control Cao Zhi for my use, it is difficult to ......" Since Xu Shu knew Liu Feng's plan in his heart, he couldn't help but whisper advice.
"It doesn't matter, I see that Cao Zhi can eat and sleep in Jiangling, and his mood doesn't seem to have changed much, I see him today, if it can really be used by us, talk to him over there, if not, I'm afraid Cao Zhi will probably die in the hands of Zhuge Liang this time."
"Ziwei can think about it so far, it is excellent, even if Cao Zhi can't be used by us, we can't let him return to Cao Cao, and counting this matter on Zhuge Liang's head is really a wonderful move!" Pang Tong saw that Liu Feng had already figured out the way back, and couldn't help but admire.
Liu Feng was not ambiguous at the moment, knowing that if he couldn't take advantage of these days to persuade Cao Zhi to be a little free, once Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei targeted Cao Zhi in the future, it would be quite troublesome, so after a brief discussion with the two, he came to the house where Cao Zhi was detained alone.
If Cao Zhi wanted to get out of the house, Liu Feng would send several capable soldiers to accompany him, Cao Zhi was not a martial artist, but a literati scholar, and did not think about escaping, but only sneered at Liu Feng's behavior.
"Brother Zijian, has he adapted to the city in the past two days? If there is anything difficult to do, just tell Feng! As soon as Liu Feng arrived at Cao Zhi's house, he saw Cao Zhi holding a book and studying, as if he hadn't seen Liu Feng, but Liu Feng didn't care, smiled to himself, and sat beside Cao Zhi and said.
Cao Zhi saw that Liu Feng was approaching and had to talk to him, so he slowly put down the book in his hand, stood up and saluted Liu Feng with a fist, and said in his mouth: "I don't know that General Ziwei is coming, it is really a long way to welcome, I don't know if General Ziwei is going to send me to Nafankou and teach Uncle Liu Huang to behead the heart of the Zhiwei army?" ”
Seeing that Cao Zhi's tone was a little resentful, Liu Feng hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "What did Brother Zijian say, Feng left Zijian here, just to keep himself safe, and he definitely has no intention of harming Brother Zijian, Zijian and Feng are both of the same age, how can Feng bear to send Zijian to Fankou?" ”
"General Ziwei don't want to make fun of me, I listened to the people under my father's command secretly talk about it as early as in Xuchang, General Ziwei is like Yama on the battlefield, and killing the sergeants under my father's command is also like slaughtering pigs and dogs. How dare you compare it with General Ziwei? ”
Liu Feng saw that Cao Zhi's tongue was very powerful, so he didn't say more, his eyes were blazing for a while, and he saw that although he was already in prison at this time and his future was uncertain, his face remained unchanged and he was very calm, and he couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart.
"Zijian knows why Feng detained you back to Jiangling alone, and not others?" Liu Feng suddenly changed to a solemn expression and asked.
"I am the son of Prime Minister Cao Cheng, so I can enter the eyes of General Ziwei." Cao Zhi smiled indifferently and replied in a low voice.
"Actually, it's not, if you change someone else, most of you will kill Prime Minister Cao Cheng on the spot, Prime Minister Cao Cheng can save the day this time, thanks to Zijian."
"Why is that?" Cao Zhi's eyes widened and he asked.
"The cause and effect is that I have already learned that Prime Minister Cao Cheng loves Zijian very much in his heart, if there is no accident, Zijian can take over the mantle of Prime Minister Cao Cheng, unify the Central Plains in the future, and become a hegemon!"
