Chapter 168 Choice

In the barracks, Cao Cao frowned and walked on the wooden couch, rubbing his temples from time to time, as if he had been seriously ill.

"My lord, I'll slow down the battle beforehand, your illness is important." Guo Jia, who was standing on the side, saw that Cao Cao had a physical problem, and hoped that the other party could return to Xu Du to recuperate.

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and said, "It's easy to say, the decisive battle with Yuan Shu is imminent, how can you withdraw the army." ”

Guo Jia shook his head and said: "Lord, Yuan Shu has already betrayed his relatives and left, and he will definitely be defeated without a fight, why should you put your life into it for some territory." ”

Cao Cao didn't know that fate was the first place: "The emperor is waiting for good news, once I choose to retreat, I will lose his trust, and there is still a person waiting to share the meat in Jiangdong." ”

Guo Jia knew Cao Cao's thoughts, and retreating at this time was tantamount to handing over the fruits of victory to others, and that person was Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong.

Cao Cao's situation was very embarrassing, after the burden on his body increased, diseases from all sides followed, and now it was wartime, and he couldn't retreat.

At this time, a herald broke in from outside the tent: "Report to the lord!" The queen said she wanted to see you. ”

"This girl, let her in." Cao Cao hadn't seen Cao Ming for a long time, and he missed her very much.

After a while, the herald led Cao Ming in, and Guo Jia exited the camp with interest, leaving the father and daughter a private space.

Cao Cao spoke first: "I heard that you went to Yuan Shao to make trouble, and provoked him to send troops to fight Yanzhou." ”

Cao Ming was not afraid that Yuan Shao would send troops: "It's better to tear your face now than to keep pretending, and besides, with the Huns holding him back, we have nothing to worry about." ”

Cao Cao saw that Cao Ming had something on his mind, and even his speech was more serious than usual, as if he had changed a person.

Cao Ming continued: "Actually, I came to hope that you can withdraw from the army, and it will not benefit anyone if you continue to fight." ”

Cao Cao's body has problems, and he should go back to Xu Du to recuperate, otherwise once there is a bad pool, the entire court will be in crisis.

Cao Cao was silent for a long time, and sighed: "I don't want to hide it from you, there is one condition that if it can be achieved, the withdrawal of troops can be realized." ”

Cao Ming's pupils shrank: "Words count, as long as you can withdraw your troops, no matter what the conditions, I will do my part." ”

Cao Cao nodded and said, "I think about it, you are the only one who can do this." ”

"I don't quite understand what my father means." Cao Ming tried to restrain her emotions, although she had guessed what was going on, she was still unwilling to face it.

"If Sun Ce dies, things will be much easier." After Cao Cao finished speaking, he closed his eyes and rested, waiting for Cao Ming's answer to him.

Cao Ming felt a pain in her heart, and it seemed that she was going to make a choice after all: "You are going to use a knife to insert me in the heart." ”

Cao Cao opened his eyes and said, "Ming'er, I won't force you, even if I withdraw now, I will send troops to fight Sun Ce in the future." ”

Cao Ming nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do this thing, but I have a request, I hope you can allow it." ”

"Speak!" Cao Cao was curious about Cao Ming's request, what was there that the queen couldn't do, but he could use it.

Cao Ming almost gritted her teeth and said: "I don't want to be a queen, I just want to be an ordinary person." ”

"You say it again!" Cao Cao's face was very ugly, and he even forgot the pain on his body.

Cao Ming repeated: "I don't like the emperor at all, it's better to cut it off with a knife than to act for others every day." ”

Cao Cao stood up and pulled out his sword, pointed at Cao Ming and said, "You unfilial girl, you want to be angry with me!" ”

"My lord!" Guo Jia heard the dispute in the tent and immediately rushed in to grab Cao Cao.

Cao Ming said fearlessly: "I am not your personal belongings, and I have the right to decide my own life." ”

Guo Jia persuaded and said: "Niangniang, you don't say a few words, the lord can't bear it physically." ”

Cao Ming snorted coldly: "I won't say more, this is my condition, and the choice is yours." ”

"Ming'er, do you think you can talk about conditions?" Cao Cao didn't want the relationship between the two to be stiff, but the conditions proposed by the other party really couldn't be done.

Cao Ming hit the nail on the head and said: "Father, don't forget one thing, you brought up the matter of marriage at the beginning." ”

"I brought it up, so what!" Cao Cao's voice lowered, obviously being said by Cao Ming.

Cao Ming clenched his fists and said, "You could accept him as a son-in-law at the beginning, but now you want to get rid of him quickly." ”

Cao Cao knew that he was at a loss, and immediately threw his sword to the ground: "Come on, tie her up for me, and then send her to Xuchang." ”

Dozens of armor soldiers rushed in from outside the tent, but because of Cao Ming's identity, they didn't do it for a long time.

Cao Ming pulled out half of her sword and said, "Father, don't forget, I'm not a weak woman. ”

Cao Cao glared at Cao Ming and said, "I don't care what you think, anyway, you have to be the queen." ”

"Sorry, I can't do it." Cao Ming looked around at the armor soldiers around him, and he could read the signal from their eyes, so he should not be embarrassed by himself.

Cao Cao repeated the order again: "Hurry up and tie her up, haven't you heard my order." ”

The armorers suddenly moved out of the way, apparently preparing to disobey the order, after all, neither could afford to offend.

Guo Jia arched his hand and said to Cao Ming: "Niangniang, you can go whatever you want, and I will persuade the lord here." ”

"Thank you." Cao Ming quickly left the camp, she knew that this meeting with Cao Cao was probably the last.

"Bonghyo, why are you helping her?" Cao Cao didn't expect Guo Jia to say this, he should support himself.

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Lord, Niangniang can actually decide for herself, and the reason why I came here to tell you is just to respect you." ”

Guo Jia feels that this is the best result, Cao Ming is a master who does not eat hard, and tough treatment will only lead to greater contradictions.

Cao Cao felt a faint pain in his head: "Hmph, when she returns to Xuchang, I will clean her up." ”

At the gate of the barracks, a carriage was parked nearby, and Yan Ying was sitting in the carriage observing the situation.

Cao Ming walked out of the barracks with red eyes, and then got into the lane: "Now let's go and kill someone." ”

"Murder? Kill whom? Yan Ying didn't understand what Cao Ming meant, she shouldn't have persuaded Cao Cao to withdraw from the army, why did she suddenly become a murderer again.

Cao Ming's voice trembled slightly: "Go and kill Sun Ce, and then my mission will be over." ”

Yan Ying said with a look of disbelief: "We are here to save General Sun, and you are going to kill him now." ”

In the face of Cao Ming, who has a huge contrast, Yan Ying's brain really can't turn a corner, does it have to be solved by force.

Cao Ming smiled bitterly: "No way, my father and General Sun are not people who can make peace, so I can only choose one of them." ”

Cao Ming can't make a decision now, so he can only go to Sun Ce to try first, maybe the other party will consider surrendering.

Yan Ying made a helpless expression: "I think what you said is angry, and I won't believe it if you kill you, you can kill General Sun." (To be continued.) )
