Chapter 68: Upstairs at the White Gate

Liu Yong sighed lightly, "Cheng is high and powerful, and there is nothing missing." The prime minister www.biquge.info was afraid that he was going to enter the city, so Liu Yong took his leave first! ”

Diao Chan was terrified in his heart, "Childe is going well, Diao Chan is waiting for Childe's good news." ”

Liu Yong said goodbye, thinking for a while, how to intercede with Cao Cao. Now Cao Cao is the son of heaven to order the princes, what do you want? According to his own understanding, Cao Cao's favorite thing is name and color. Liu Yong suddenly had a thought in his heart, with Cao Cao being so lustful, why did he confiscate Diao Chan after killing Lu Bu? Is it because Diao Chan is too famous to be contaminated?

Liu Yong didn't dare to think about it anymore, and after going out, he explained a few words to Dong Xi and went straight to the south gate. The south gate is also called the white gate, and there is a city tower on it that is the white gate tower. Soon after Liu Yong and other generals waited here, Cao Cao entered the city with a group of civil and military generals.

Cao Cao laughed when he saw Liu Yong, "Chongru." Taking down Pi is the first achievement. ”

Liu Yong bowed his hand and thanked him: "Thanks to the prestige of the prime minister, Liu Yong has this merit." Generals Song Xian and Wei Xuer fought bloodily and captured Lu Bu; Hou Cheng stole horses and sacrificed horses; Hao Meng collected and surrendered troops, restrained his subordinates, and took over the warehouse, so the people in the city were stable, and his contribution was not small. Song Xian and the others listened to Liu Yong's request for credit for themselves, and they were both happy and grateful.

Cao Cao saw that Liu Yong was not proud of his merits, and he liked it even more, and said: "The merits of the generals have been remembered in their hearts, and they will be rewarded for their merits." Chongru, you strategize, personally involved in danger, and make great contributions, and you must not shirk. ”

"Prime Minister Xie compliments." Liu Yong bowed and saluted, and said, "The little self of the Lu Bu family has been carefully guarded, and I am waiting for the prime minister's fate." ”

"Well, that's good." Cao Cao saw that Liu Yong was thoughtful, and he was even more satisfied, and said to everyone, "Everyone, follow me upstairs." ”

Cao Cao sat down under the White Gate Tower, waited for the civil and military forces on both sides to stand still, and ordered: "Escort Lu Bu and the others up." ”

Song Xian and Wei Xu pushed Lu Bu up, and as soon as Lu Bu saw Cao Cao, he shouted: "Prime Minister, the bundle is too tight, can you loosen it a little?" ”

Cao Cao twisted his beard in his hand and said with a smile: "How can you not tie a tiger tightly?" ”

Lu Bu turned his head to Song Xian and Wei continued: "Two, Lu Bu treats you well on weekdays, why do you want to turn your back on the Lord and seek glory?" ”

Song Xian pointed at Lu Bu with his hand and said sarcastically: "Since you retreated to Xiapi, the public platform has even offered a few suggestions, but you don't accept it, you listen to the woman's words, and you have repeatedly missed opportunities." And when the situation is critical, you only know how to drink and have fun all day long, and never let us live and die; The war horse in the army was stolen, and General Hou Cheng tried his best to recover it, but you were indiscriminate, and you wanted to kill the heroes, and you also treated us well? These few words made Lu Bu speechless.

At this time, his subordinates pushed Gao Shun. Liu Yong's impression of Gao Shun is actually good, and he can be regarded as loyal to Lu Bu, even more than Zhang Liao, and belongs to the kind of person who dies as a confidant. It's a pity that Cao Cao didn't feel cold to Gao Shun at all, he only glanced at it and ordered: "Pull it down and kill." That Gao Shun was hard-hearted, and he didn't beg for mercy, and he was killed with his head held high, which made Liu Yong feel deeply pity.

Gao Shun was taken down here, and the soldiers over there pushed another person. When Cao Cao saw it, he couldn't help but stand up. It turned out that this person was the Chen Palace who caught Cao and released Cao in Zhongmu County. Cao Cao clenched his fists and arched his hands: "Don't come to the public platform to be harmed?" ”

Chen Gong glanced at Cao Cao, and "hummed" in his mouth, but did not speak. Cao Cao said again: "Since the public platform saved me, why did you abandon me again." ”

Chen Gong's eyebrows were upside down, his eyes were wide, and he sneered: "Cao Cao, if you are not right, how can I not abandon you?" ”

Cao Cao smiled: "Gongtai, you say that my Cao Cao's heart is not right, then Lu Bu is capricious, faithless and unrighteous, and his heart is right?" How can you protect him? ”

Chen Gong glanced at Lu Bu and said to Cao Cao: "Although Lu Bu is brave and treacherous, he is stronger than you, a treacherous person!" ”

"Gongtai, you think you are resourceful and don't take Cao in your eyes, but today you are not the same as being captured by Cao?"

Chen Gong sighed, looked at Lu Bu, and said hatefully: "I only hate that this person doesn't listen to Chen Gong's words, otherwise he may not be captured." ”

Cao Cao nodded, and said, "If you are captured today, what are the plans of the public platform?" ”

Chen Gong raised his head and said proudly: "Since he was captured, he only died, why did Ming Gong ask again?" ”

Cao Cao leaned forward and asked, "Gongtai, it is easy for you to die, but what about your mother, wife, and children?" Cao Cao knew that Chen Gong was a dutiful son, and wanted to use this to move Chen Gong to surrender.

Chen Gong raised his head and said: "Chen Gong has heard, 'Those who rule the world with filial piety do not harm people's relatives; Those who govern the world benevolently will not be worshipped. 'It is Ming Gong who decides the life and death of my old mother, wife and children, not me. ”

Cao Cao not only took pity on Chen Gong's talent, but also had the grace of life not to be repaid, so he looked back left and right and asked, "Do you have any ideas to keep the public platform for Lonely?" ”

Chen Gong said proudly: "My mind has been decided, and it is as solid as a rock." Ming Gong still didn't do this useless act, and let Chen Gong be killed as soon as possible. "When the strategists saw that Chen Gong was iron-clad, and knew that he hated Cao Cao to the bone, he would not rush to surrender, if he went to persuade him to surrender, he would definitely bring humiliation on himself, so they all lowered their heads and did not say a word.

Cao Cao was very unhappy when he saw that all the strategists were silent, and turned his head to Liu Yong and said, "If you have a good plan to keep the public platform." ”

Liu Yong was in trouble in his heart, this Chen Palace is not as good as Guan Yu, not only anti-Cao, but also does not have much affection for the Han court, words like "descending to Han and not descending to Cao" have no effect, and after a few turns in his mind, Fang cautiously replied: "The prime minister can put the public platform first, and then slowly think of a way." ”

Cao Cao was a little strange: "It's easy to put the public platform, but I'm afraid that he will raise troops again." ”

Chen Gong also said: "If Ming Gong lets me go today, I will not be grateful, and I will still be an enemy of Cao Gong." ”

Liu Yongyan said: "Dare to ask the prime minister, if he is released from the public stage, who can he vote for?" Although the world is big, the only one who can obey the public station is Lu Bu. ”

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, "Chongru is reasonable. ”

"If you want to vote for the public platform, you must be a person who has a gap with the prime minister, but although the world is big, there are only a few people. Zhang Xiu's strength is weak, and Liu Biao is a person who is safe, these two people only know how to defend the land and protect themselves, and they are not afraid; Yuan Shu is about to die, just lingering, not to mention it, and now the only one who can compete with the prime minister is Yuan Shao of Hebei. But this person is stubborn and self-serving, jealous and jealous, and his account is full of talents, and if the public platform is invested, it must not be reused. Besides, those strategists have their own ghosts, form parties for personal gain, and are suspicious of each other, how can they stand out from the crowd and dominate the crowd from the public platform. As the saying goes, there are clouds, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Therefore, Liu Yong thinks that there is nothing to invest in the public station, and the prime minister can relax. ”

Chen Gong listened to Liu Yong's words, first disdainful, then discouraged, this Liu Yong said it reasonably. The world is so big, is there no one who understands me except Cao Cao? Chen Gong raised his head, looked at Liu Yong deeply, his face was like ashes, and he hugged his fists and said: "Liu Yong, what you said is very reasonable, the old man has never admired a few people in his life, you are counted as one." But the old man won't do what you want. ”

"Not good!" Liu Yong knew that it was going to be bad when he heard Chen Gong say this, and shouted urgently, "Quickly hold the public platform." ”

Chen Gong didn't wait for the left and right to react, he used all his strength to break free from the restraints, and slammed into the city wall, with a "bang", blood splashed everywhere, and his brains collapsed, and he was immediately lifeless. Liu Yong was sad from the heart, blamed himself, and said secretly, "Liu Yong, Liu Yong, you are too self-righteous. Chen Gong was killed by you. ”

Cao Cao snatched it over, looking at Chen Gong's corpse, he was also sentimental.

"Prime Minister, Liu Yong is incompetent, forcing the public platform to death, and please punish the Prime Minister."

Cao Cao had tears in his eyes, waved his hand, and sighed: "The public platform sees through the world, there is no concern, Chongru does not have to blame himself." Come on, bury Chen Gong and send it to Xu Du for burial. Send the old mother, wife and children of the public station to Xu Du to be carefully fed, and those who neglect will be killed! ”

Lu Bu saw that Gao Shun and Chen Gong were dead, how would Cao Cao punish me? Turning his head to see Liu Bei sitting on Cao Cao's guest of honor, Lu Bu thought to himself, I am Liu Bei's life-saving benefactor, just let him repay his favor, so he said to Liu Bei: "Liu Yuanjun is now a guest on the Prime Minister's seat, can you say a few words for Lu Bu and ask the Prime Minister to spare my life?" Liu Bei nodded slightly at Lu Bu, and Lu Buton felt relieved.

Cao Cao returned to his seat and sat down, and Lu Bu said, "Prime Minister, isn't what you're worried about is me Lu Bu?" Now I would like to submit to the Prime Minister with all my heart. In the future, he will be killed, attacking the city and plundering the land, and he will be driven by the prime minister. With Lu Bu's ability, he will help the prime minister to level the four seas and dominate the world, just around the corner! ”

Cao Cao was a little moved when he heard these words, Cao Cao already loves talents, and Lu Bu is the best in the world in martial arts, no one can beat him, if he can be subdued for his own use, he will definitely be able to add wings to the tiger.

Cao Cao hesitated for a long time, his face was cloudy, and when he turned his face, he saw Liu Bei and asked, "Xuande, what should you do with your appearance?" ”

Liu Bei arched his hand and replied: "Prime Minister, do you remember Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo?" ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he was furious and said: "Liu Bei, it turns out that you are the most untrustworthy person in this world!" ”

As soon as Liu Bei's words came out, Liu Yong knew that it was not good. Liu Bei's words cost people's lives! Cao Cao is a smart man, how could he not understand the deep meaning? Liu Yong searched his stomach and thought about how to save Lu Bu's life, but his mind was chaotic, and he just thought, "Didn't Liu Bei promise me to save Lu Bu, why did he suddenly change his hexagram again?" ”

Cao Cao listened to Liu Bei's words and immediately understood. Lu Bu can kill his father-in-law Ding Yuan for the sake of glory and wealth, and worship Dong Zhuo as his father-in-law; For the sake of the beautiful Diao Chan, Dong Zhuo can be killed again, will he kill me again in the future? Although Lu Bu is brave, he has many generals under him, and it is not necessary. What's more, Lu Bu is arrogant, capricious, and difficult to ensure that he is not raising tigers. So Cao Cao ruthlessly said to the sergeant: "Come on, push Lu Bu down and hang him on the White Gate Tower." ”

The knife and axe hand pushed Lu Bu down, and Lu Bu turned around and scolded: "Liu Bei, you ungrateful big-eared thief!" Have you forgotten to shoot me and save your life? ”

At this moment, another person was pushed from below. This person sneered coldly: "Lu Bu, the eldest husband stands up to the sky and the earth, let him die, why bother begging for mercy?" ”
