Chapter 106 - Xuzhou Changes Hands (I)

Cao Cao received Liu Bei's instrument, but he just glanced at it, and saw that he was full of praise for his assassination of Dong and the failure of the assassination of Dong, and the release of the document contributed to the matter of the princes of the Eighteenth Road to discuss Dong, and he couldn't help but be happy.

After all, people like to listen to flattery words.

It's just that Cao Cao couldn't see Liu Bei's intentions, but he guessed that after seeing this table, he would never give it to the Son of Heaven to know, and sure enough, in order to befriend himself, he couldn't stop praising himself.

With a cold snort, Cao Cao put down the watch in his hand, rubbed his forehead, and said to himself: "Liu Da'er, don't think I don't know what you think in your heart!" ”

"If it weren't for me coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, I'm afraid you would have been eager to go to the table, angrily reprimanding me, wanting to show off in front of the Son of Heaven, so that the Son of Heaven would remember you as a weaver and a peddler!"

"Everyone in the world says that I, Cao Mengde, am the hero of the world, but why are you Liu Da'er not a hero?"

After muttering for a while, Cao Cao always felt that Liu Da'er would be his henchman on the road to pacifying the world.

In order to remove Liu Bei's possible obstacle in the future, Cao Cao ordered someone to set up a banquet hall and convene everyone to discuss countermeasures.

After everyone came to the back hall, Cao Cao looked at everyone and asked: "Liu Bei is in Xuzhou, and he is in charge of state affairs. What's the best way to do it? ”

After listening to Cao Cao's words, Xu Chu opened his mouth and preemptively said: "I am willing to borrow 50,000 elite soldiers, behead Liu Bei and Lu Bu, and dedicate them to the lord!" ”

Xun Yu on the side shook his head and said slowly to Xu Zhu: "The general is brave, but he doesn't know how to use it. Today, it is a new decision, and troops cannot be used lightly. ”

"Yu has a plan, called the plan of the two tigers to compete for food! Although Liu Bei led Xuzhou today, he never received the edict of the Son of Heaven. The Duke of Ming can ask the Son of Heaven to grant Liu Bei the pastor of Xuzhou, and at the same time he can secretly leave a letter of resignation and let him kill Lu Bu. ”

"If it is done, Liu Bei will no longer have a warrior as a supplement, and he will gradually be able to make a profit; If it doesn't work, Lu Bu will kill Liu Bei! ”

Looking at Xun Yu, who was calmly twisting his beard, Cao Cao only thought about it slightly, that is, he listened to his words, and soon asked the Son of Heaven to summon him, sent a messenger to Xuzhou, and named Liu Bei as the general of Zhengdong, the Marquis of Yicheng Pavilion, and led the Xuzhou pastor, and attached a secret book.

Liu Bei has been restless since the above table, always thinking about how to minimize his sense of existence.

But suddenly someone came, and the messenger of the Son of Heaven arrived.

Liu Bei, who learned the news, hurriedly tidied up his clothes, and quickly ran out of the mansion and went out of the city to welcome him in.

The envoy of the Son of Heaven read out the edict of the Son of Heaven in front of Liu Bei, and Liu Bei couldn't help but be a little shocked when he heard that his official worshiped General Zhengdong.

At the same time, he also wondered why the Son of Heaven suddenly issued an edict, recognized his identity as a pastor of Xuzhou, and at the same time added an official to the knighthood.

Could it be that Cao Cao handed over his watch to the Son of Heaven?

When the messenger of the Son of Heaven saw Liu Bei lose his mind, he couldn't help coughing lightly to remind Liu Bei of his gratitude.

Liu Bei heard the coughing sound of the messenger of the Son of Heaven, came back to his senses, and knew that this was the messenger of the Son of Heaven reminding him, that is, he stepped forward to accept the order.

After receiving the edict, Liu Bei sent someone back to the house to set up a banquet in order to receive the envoys.

The envoy of the Son of Heaven secretly approached Liu Bei's side and whispered in his ear: "The prince can get this grace, it is really the power of Cao Sikong's sponsorship in front of the emperor. ”

Liu Bei listened to the words of the messenger of the Son of Heaven, and was a little incomprehensible to Cao Cao's behavior in his heart.

After thanking him, the messenger of the Son of Heaven took out the secret letter and secretly handed it to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei took the secret letter from the messenger of the Son of Heaven, and after reading it, his brows couldn't help frowning: "This matter is still up for discussion." ”

After the banquet dispersed and the messenger of the Son of Heaven rested in the pavilion, Liu Bei discussed the matter with the public overnight.

After listening to Liu Bei's words, Zhang Fei said: "Big brother, that Lu Bu is an unrighteous person, what's the problem of killing him, not to mention that we have a secret edict from the Son of Heaven!" ”

Chen Deng, who was on the side, heard Zhang Fei's words and shook his head: "The three generals are wrong, this secret edict is not issued by the Son of Heaven, I am afraid that Cao Cao wrote it in the name of the Son of Heaven!" ”

Liu Bei nodded and agreed with what Chen Deng said: "I think so too, if it is really Cao Cao who is pretending to be the Son of Heaven, then the content of this secret edict is questionable." And that Lu Bu came to me in poverty, and if I kill him today, it will be unjust. ”

Zhang Fei glanced at Chen Deng angrily, in his mind, Liu Bei didn't kill Lu Bu because he listened to Chen Deng's words, and snorted coldly: "It's hard to be a good person!" ”

The next day, Lu Bu came to congratulate, and after Liu Bei heard about it, he invited him in.

When Lu Bu saw Liu Bei, he couldn't help laughing at Liu Bei and said, "Wen Gong was ordered by the imperial court, and Bute came to congratulate him." ”

Liu Bei humbly thanked him, and before he could reply, he saw Zhang Fei pulling his sword and going up to the hall, wanting to kill Lu Bu.

Seeing this scene, Liu Bei was shocked, and hurriedly stopped Zhang Fei.

Lu Bu looked at the sword in Zhang Fei's hand and exclaimed, "Why does Yide want to kill me? ”

Zhang Fei snorted, pointed at Lu Bu, and shouted: "Then Cao Cao said that you are an unrighteous person, ask my brother to kill you!" ”

As soon as Zhang Fei's words came out, Liu Bei was shocked, and immediately shouted him back.

Originally, Liu Bei's plan was to take advantage of Lu Bu's coming to congratulate and relax his mind to poison and assassinate Lu Bu.

It's just that Zhang Fei made it like this, Lu Bu naturally raised his vigilance, and there was no chance to start.

After thinking about it quickly, Liu Bei changed his original thoughts, pretended to be benevolent and righteous, led Lu Bu into the back hall, informed him of the reason, and handed over the secret book sent by Cao Cao to Lu Bu for viewing.

After reading it, Lu Bu deeply felt Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness, and cried to him: "This is Cao Thief's desire to make the two of us discordant!" ”

Liu Bei waved his hand and said to Lu Bu: "Don't worry, brother, don't swear not to do anything unrighteous for this." ”

Lu Bu thanked him repeatedly, and Liu Bei took this opportunity to leave Lu Bu to drink and return at night, but there was no chance to poison him.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei send Lu Bu out of the mansion and returned, and asked puzzledly: "Why didn't my brother kill Lu Bu?" ”

Liu Bei sighed and said to the two: "This is because Cao Mengde is afraid that I will conspire with Lu Bu to kill him, so he used this plan to make the two of us annex each other, but he is profiting from it, why should I listen to his orders?" ”

After listening to Liu Bei's explanation, Guan Yu also understood Cao Cao's intentions in his heart, and nodded yes, but Zhang Fei was still unwilling: "I just need to kill this thief to prevent future troubles!" ”

Liu Bei glanced at Zhang Fei and scolded loudly: "Nonsense, this is not what the big husband does!" ”
