So in the end, a slight sly look flashed between Cao Cao's eyes, and then he turned his heart sideways and said categorically to Xun You and Cheng Yu: "I think clearly, this time we must not agree to Lu Fengxian's request, although Chen Gongtai is a very rare talent, but the time is extremely immature, if we want to get Chen Gongtai to join, then the best way is to find a way to defeat Lu Fengxian, and then capture Chen Gongtai."

However, at present, the Cao family army urgently needs a period of stability and cultivation, because in the process of conquering and merging states, we have used troops somewhat excessively, and it is not appropriate to continue to use troops to go out now, so we must wait until after the autumn harvest before we can act, if at that time, then Lu Fengxian is still in Pingyuan County, we will go to exterminate him, and whether we can get Chen Gongtai at that time depends on God's will. ”
Cao Cao made up his mind, and then sent someone to blast Lu Bu's envoy out, and severely reprimanded Lu Bu.
Lu Bu's envoy was scolded by Cao Cao, and he was naturally very annoyed in his heart, so he returned to Pingyuan County with a stomach full of anger and grievances, and retold Cao Cao's bad attitude towards him again in the original version.
What kind of person is Lu Bu? After listening to the envoy's exaggerated description, Lu Bu couldn't help but be furious, so he immediately raised his troops and waved his army to attack Cao Cao.
Or is it said that Lu Bu is a brave and unscrupulous person? After being angry, the only thing he thought of was to seek revenge, without thinking about whether he had the strength himself, or whether he did it in a fit of anger, and in the end, what was the result?
Fortunately, Chen Gong came quickly, otherwise Lu Bu would have made a big mistake again, and Chen Gong stopped Lu Bu back to the county government in anger.
Like a wronged child, Lu Bu said his grievances and anger to Chen Gong one by one, and scolded Cao Cao angrily: "Cao Apu is really not a thing, is there such a burying person?" I, Lu Bu, respect you as a hero, respect you as a hero, and I respect you as a hero, so I will choose you.
I really didn't expect you to be so narrow-minded, beating and scolding my messenger, you are really in vain to call the name of a generation of heroes, I, Lu Bu, will get this breath back sooner or later, I want to fight Sizhou City with my own hands and capture Cao Apu alive with my own hands! ”
Chen Gong was not surprised by Cao Cao's treatment of Lu Bu, because, according to Chen Gong's understanding of Cao Cao, Cao Cao was a careful and suspicious person, and he naturally wouldn't buy a character like Lu Bu easily, and besides, the strategists under Cao Cao's account were not dry food.
Dealing with a person like Lu Bu who is often rebellious and unrestrained and unpredictable, no wise strategist will easily advise him to accept him, so Cao Cao's rejection of Lu Bu is also reasonable in Chen Gong's opinion.
However, then again, it was precisely because of Cao Cao's attitude towards Lu Bu that Chen Gong just gave Chen Gong an opportunity to persuade Lu Bu to surrender to Liu Jing.
Because Chen Gong's understanding of Cao Cao is mostly based on word of mouth, in contrast, Chen Gong's understanding of Liu Jing is much deeper than Cao Cao's, besides, according to Liu Jing's way of dealing with the world, he must have a way to control Lu Bu.
Because, it can be seen from Liu Jing's handling of Gongsun Zhan's affairs that Liu Jing is quite skillful, and there is also a great sage Zhuge Liang by Liu Jing's side, these two together, it can be said that they are a perfect combination, a team of monarchs and ministers made in heaven, with the two of them joining forces, it seems that there is no extremely difficult problem to solve in this world.
Chen Gong comforted Lu Bu for a while, and waited for the anger in Lu Bu's heart to decrease slightly, and then Chen Gong said slowly to Lu Bu: "General, the most critical issue at the moment is not to take revenge on Cao Mengde, there will be such opportunities in the future, we don't need to be in a hurry."
The most important thing for us at the moment is to find a way to protect ourselves, because the current situation is complex and changeable, we still have to take precautions, since Cao Mengde's road is blocked, then we only have one way to go! ”
Lu Bu calmed down the mania in his heart, and a trace of calm was restored in his eyes, he looked at Chen Gong, and then said casually: "What the public platform said is extremely true, I was also blinded by anger at this time, and it was a big mistake to check the order, but fortunately, there is a public platform to persuade me, hey!" I'm just angry with him Cao Mengde.
Since things have come to this point, it's useless to just be angry, since Cao Mengde's road doesn't work, I expect that Liu Xuande's road seems to be very hanging, Gongtai, I can be described as very chaotic in my heart now, you talk about it, Liu Xuande's side, do we still use it to try? Is this still necessary? ”
After Lu Bu said this, he leaned back and smashed the chair, his eyes closed, as if his heart was occupied by sorrow, as if he could no longer see hope.
Seeing Lu Bu's haggard appearance, Chen Gong's heart also rose with a sense of sympathy, but no matter how Chen Gong felt, his mind was still calm, and he saw that Chen Gong was not in a hurry and said slowly: "General, don't be discouraged for this failure, there are ways that are different, and they don't conspire with each other."
Cao Mengde expelled the general's envoy, it was because Cao Mengde could not tolerate such a talent as the general, in fact, it was also a loss for him Cao Mengde, and Liu Xuande's side and Cao Mengde's side were not in the same camp, and as far as I know, Liu Xuande is a broad-minded, benevolent and benevolent person, I expect that he will definitely know and employ people better than Cao Mengde! ”
Lu Bu was lying there, although he looked extremely weak and unconscious, but every word of Chen Gong, Lu Bu listened to it in his heart, and when he heard Chen Gong's praise for Liu Jing, Lu Bu also tried his best to remind himself of some of Liu Jing's images.
Because, when Liu Jing and Cao Cao entered Beijing, Lu Bu had a relationship with the two of them, and Lu Bu knew more or less about the two of them.
Chen Gong's words are right, compared to Cao Cao, Liu Jing does have a lot of patience and mind, which can be seen from the time when Lu Bu met them in Luoyang, and then just before, when Liu Jing incorporated Gongsun Zhan, it also showed Liu Jing's great tolerance and generosity.
After reminiscing about it again and again in Lu Bu's heart, he gradually developed a sense of identity with Liu Jing in his heart, and he also had a little bit of a good impression of Liu Jing.
Then, Lu Bu opened his eyes all of a sudden, and suddenly erected his body, Lu Bu sat up straight, and then looked at Chen Gong with bright eyes, and said with a trace of expectation and excitement: "Gongtai, in your opinion, will Liu Xuande really accept me?" ”
