During the banquet, Cao Cao kept persuading everyone to drink.

It didn't take long for him to get a little drunk.

Standing up, Cao Cao drew his long sword.

He first pointed at everyone with drunken eyes, and then danced his sword in public.

While dancing the sword, he also sang loudly: "When you sing about wine, life is geometric." For example, the morning dew is bitter in the past. Be generous and unforgettable. How to solve the worries, only Du Kang ......"

Cao Cao danced his sword and chanted poems in public, and everyone's eyes fell on his face.

When he recited "The black magpie flies south, three turns around the tree", one person frowned slightly.

This person's surname is Liu Mingfu, the character Yuanying, he used to be the assassin of Yangzhou, and when Cao Shuo took over the history of Yangzhou assassination, he changed to another official position.

Now that Cao Shuo has handed over Yangzhou to Pang Tong to take care of, he has no chance to get involved.

After reciting this "Short Song Xing", Cao Cao looked around at everyone and asked, "How is my recitation?" ”

Everyone praised each other, but Liu Fu stood up, clasped his fists and bowed to Cao Cao and said: "In Cao Gong's poem just now, the black magpie flying south and circling the tree three turns seems inappropriate at first glance, but when I think about it carefully, I find that this sentence is supreme and exquisite. ”

Cao Cao, who was already drunk, laughed and asked Liu Fu, "What's wrong, and why is it subtle?" ”

"The black magpie is also the crow, and it is an ominous bird." Liu Fu said: "Cao Gong used this bird in the poem, which is inappropriate. ”

As soon as he said this, Cao Cao's face instantly became a little ugly.

However, Liu Fu then said: "Think about it carefully, the black magpie that Cao Gong said is flying around on the head of Jiangdong, and it is precisely in response to Gongzi's attack on the Jiangdong Navy and the Sun family in the future." Isn't it subtle to preach good luck with an unlucky bird? ”

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "What Yuan Ying said is very much in line with me, wait until Zirong breaks through Jiangdong, and let him find you a good errand, it is better than doing that nominal assassin history." ”

"Thank you, Gong Cao." Liu Fu hurriedly bowed down and thanked him.

If Cao Shuo was here at this time, he would definitely pinch a cold sweat for Liu Fu.

According to the normal development, Liu Fu should have had his head cut off by Cao Cao for this "Short Song Xing".

But for some reason, not only did he not anger Cao Cao at this time, but also because the sycophants were just right, which made Cao Cao feel happy.

At the same time as Cao Cao's romance guests, Cao Shuo sat in the handsome tent, looking at the silk he had picked up in the small village with an oil lamp.

The words on the silk are fresh and refined, and each stroke is strong and powerful, which must not be written by ordinary people.

was watching, Sima Yi's voice came from outside the tent: "Has the son slept?" ”

"Not yet." Cao Shuo replied and put the silk silk on the table.

After entering the handsome tent, Sima Yi and Cao Shuo greeted each other.

Cao Shuo asked, "Is there anything important that Zhongda came to me so late?" ”

"Exactly." Sima Yi replied: "I came here to ask Gongzi, when will you launch an attack on Jiangdong?" ”

"Does Zhongda also think it's time to attack?" Cao Shuo asked.

"It's not." Sima Yi said: "What I want to say is to ask Gongzi not to rush to cross the river, first spend it here and Jiangdong, smash their defense line with boulders every day, and then attack in a few days." ”

"Although you think the same way as I do, I would like to hear your opinion." Cao Shuo asked, "Why does Zhongda think that now is not the time to attack Jiangdong?" ”

"The Sun family in Jiangdong has been in business for several years, and now the place is rich, and they can send warships over at any time." Sima Yi said: "Gongzi rashly attacked at this time, once the Jiangdong warships arrived, our army would definitely suffer huge losses. I was worried that there would be too many people asking my son for war, so I came here to speak. ”

"There are indeed a lot of people who ask for war, and even Ziwen has looked for me." Cao Shuo said: "Breaking the Jiangdong Naval Army, the morale of our army is like a rainbow, and according to the art of war, it is time to attack." However, the crowd is not as long-term as Zhong Da and I met, and it is really not the right time to attack at this time. ”

He picked up the silk silk on the table and said to Sima Yi: "You came just in time, I saw a dark shadow in a village in Jiangdong a few days ago, and I sent people to search everywhere but couldn't find it, but I found this thing. There are two sentences written on it, and I can't understand it. Zhong Da came to explain my doubts. ”

Unfolding the silk, Sima Yi saw that there were indeed two sentences written on it-grass day song, outside the sky. Jin Shengle, Shejiping.

Seeing these two sentences, Sima Yi was stunned, and hurriedly asked Cao Shuo: "Childe really didn't find the person who left this thing?" ”

"Nope." Cao Shuo said: "It's strange here, the guards around me are all warriors on the battlefield, and it is not difficult for them to search for individuals, but they haven't found it." What's even stranger is that no one in the village has ever seen this thing, let alone the dark shadow I saw. ”

"It's a nursery rhyme." Sima Yi said: "Nursery rhymes have always had the meaning of foreshadowing, and this nursery rhyme indicates that Gongzi will be able to win the world in the future and replace the Han court." ”

Cao Shuo didn't believe this, he frowned, and asked Sima Yi, "Can Zhongda explain to me the meaning of the nursery rhyme?" ”

"Caori Song is a Cao character." Sima Yi said: "Jin Shengle is the name of the son. ”

As soon as he explained this, Cao Shuo thought about it carefully, and it was really like that.

"Shejiping, of course, means that Gongzi can calm the world." Sima Yi continued: "What really doesn't make me understand is precisely the three words Tianwaiyin. ”

"What's wrong with those three words?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Outside the sky, it is nothing more than outside the sky." Sima Yi frowned and said, "This sentence means that Gongzi does not belong here......"

Speaking of this, Sima Yi smiled and shook his head: "How is it possible, the son is the son of the Cao family, and if he doesn't belong here, where else can he belong." ”

"That's it." Cao Shuo grinned and said, "Maybe this thing was done by someone maliciously, and maybe you want to get any benefits from it." ”

"That's what Childe said." Sima Yi responded.

Although he said this, Cao Shuo was muttering in his heart.

Sima Yi didn't understand this sentence, of course he completely understood.

He didn't belong to this era in the first place, and he was pulled over by some force for some reason.

If it was simply a nursery rhyme, without this sentence, Cao Shuo would really think that the nursery rhyme was just made up by someone.

But he really doesn't belong to this era, and there is another sentence in the nursery rhyme that directly points out this, so he can't help but doubt that this nursery rhyme does portend something.

"I'll put it here first." Cao Shuo said to Sima Yi: "After the Jiangdong is broken, I will let people investigate, once I find out who is making trouble with me, I will definitely not spare him." ”

"It's getting late, I won't delay my son's rest." Sima Yi clenched his fists and bowed down to Cao Shuo to retire.
