Chapter 194: What do you mean to talk about the old things, and the hearts of the heroes and the ministers
Bai said that when Qin Xu Fu entered Chen Liucheng, Cao ** still looked like he was ignoring Qin Xu, and after hastily welcoming Qin Xu and others in, he put it aside and ignored it, and wanted to dry this kid who made Yanzhou hate him to the bone and was helpless; But he didn't think that after the assassination on the street, Cao ** seemed to have suddenly changed his attitude, not only did he arrive in time after Cao Ren, but even his attitude changed greatly, which really made Cao Ren, who was reprimanded by Cao ** in vain, unable to figure out what his lord and brother were thinking.
"Qin encountered some trivial things, but it was just that General Zixiao said that there was a villain seeking revenge, but it alarmed General Yanzhou Mu Cao to come in person, Qin was really flattered!" Seeing that Dian Wei and Lu Lingqi were quite disdainful of Cao **'s arrival, as if they were muttering that Cao ** was playing this kind of thief's trick of shouting and catching thieves, Qin Xu smiled lightly, looked directly at Wei Wu, who had been infamous for thousands of years, and said pointedly.
"Zhong Ming's sharp mouth! Cao is really not as good as it! Zhong Ming rest assured, this incident happened in Chen Liu, no matter what, Cao will definitely give Zhong Ming a satisfactory explanation, now that Cao has set up a banquet in the mansion, how about the right to shock Zhong Ming? "Cao ** is also worthy of the evaluation of a capable minister who rules the world and a hero in troubled times, at least in terms of this pampered and humiliating face, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. At this moment, it seemed that he didn't take Qin Xu's sarcastic words to heart at all, but like an ordinary elder appeasing the frightened juniors, his smile was extremely sincere, he dismounted and took a few steps forward to hold Qin Xu's arm, and the invitation was very affectionate, if it weren't for everyone present who knew that Cao ** had suffered several big losses in Qin Xu's hands, his name had already been recorded by Cao ** at the bottom of the robe, and he couldn't sleep at night, and he couldn't wait to kill him soon, maybe he would really misunderstand the intimate friendship between the two.
"Since General Cao is so kind, Qin is disrespectful!" As early as the beginning of the attack, Qin Xu had already guessed that this matter had nothing to do with Cao **, although Cao **'s character was not good, but he still had this bit of open-mindedness, and now he saw Cao ** softened, and promised to find out the mastermind of the assassin, which can be regarded as giving Qin Xu enough face, after all, in a series of plans for Chang'an in Qingzhou, Yanzhou Cao ** is indeed a very important part, so he borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and instructed Lu Lingqi, who saved Qin Xu's life this time, to return to the camp and wait, and took Dian Wei to Cao **'s carriage.
"Zhong Ming seems to have to be loved by Feng Xian, so now the two guards around him, if they are placed on the battle array, they are also a general, but now they are willing to protect Zhong Ming's side, which shows the ability of Feng Xian and Zhong Ming! I remember that the strong man accompanying him seems to be a warrior under Meng Zhuo back then, right? "Although Cao ** is suspicious, but he also has a little bit of kung fu, when he did the assassination of the eunuch, he also waved his halberd to kill a bloody way to escape, and he didn't have a little defense against Qin Xu, a young man who couldn't lift his hand and couldn't pick his shoulder, and he was also kind to walking in the same car, but in his eyes, whether it was for the tall Dian Wei or the departed Lu Lingqi, they all showed a bit of envy.
"General Cao really remembers! Yes, Dian Wei was once the commander of a hundred people under Zhang Taishou, and after being discovered by Qin, he asked Zhang Taishou to come over, and now he is already the deputy commander of the pro-guard battalion. "Anything that can make Cao ** unhappy, Qin Xu is very happy. Anyway, although Zhang Miao is still nominally Yanzhou Chen Liutaishou, like Zhang Yang, the original Hanoi Taishou, was "seconded" by Zang Hong to act in the Linzi Mansion to act in Qingzhou political affairs, if it weren't for Zhang Miao's family in Puyang and his brother Zhang Chao, Lu Bu would dare to use it directly for his own use.
"Hmm...... Master Qin's book really has good eyesight! "Cao **'s love is as good as his life, and Cao **'s ability is now known, including the rumors that Dian Wei's force is on par with Lu Bu from Qingzhou, and it makes Cao ** angry when he thinks of it.
"General Cao praised it falsely! Speaking of Qingzhou or Yanzhou, they are both Dahan Prefecture, you and my lord, General Lu, are both ministers of the Han Dynasty, and they both serve the imperial court, so how can they distinguish each other? Qin Xu had already expected that Cao ** would have something to say when he was invited to the frame by Cao **, and Bacheng had already guessed his intention. Otherwise, no matter how high Qin Xu's prestige in the Qingzhou Army is, and how close his relationship with Lu Bu is, in addition to making Cao **'s killing intent stronger, there is no reason for Cao ** to treat a person who can't be recruited so kindly. On the one hand, Cao **, who is over forty years old and has made a big career, has become the lord of a state, and is trying to expand his territory, but on the other hand, he is a small master of the official mansion and a rank of no more than 600 stones.
"Hanchen? Hanchen! Cao ** seemed to hear what Qin Xu said, this familiar but unfamiliar title at the moment, he was a little distracted for a while, and he muttered and repeated it a few times, showing a somewhat bitter smile on his face, but it made Qin Xu, who had been paying attention to the change in Cao **'s expression, a little more embarrassed. is still the same sentence, although Lao Cao himself is not very good, but among the great masters in the history of the Three Kingdoms, he is the only one who has not been called the emperor. **Decide your brain, compared to the self-proclaimed authentic big-eared Liu and the green-eyed grandson who guards the sky, although Lao Cao has power, but in the face of such a position that can be obtained by stretching out his hand, he can hold back the supreme ** in hesitation, and he has regarded himself as Hanchen all his life, and he has to say that he is also an extremely complex character.
"Chang'an fell into the hands of thieves, causing the Son of Heaven to be covered with dust, Cao Mou was distracted, and he lost his temper for no reason, but it made Zhong Ming smile!" Cao ** is Cao ** after all, although Qin Xu's words touched a certain heartstring for a while, but he quickly recovered, and the smile on his face was restored, and his narrow eyes stared at Qin Xu for a long time, but he did not put on a look of relying on the old and selling the old as before, and said quite solemnly: "Although there are many misunderstandings between Qingyan and the two states, but Feng Xian was the first minister of Zhu Dong after all, and he was also close to the Son of Heaven when he was in Chang'an. ”
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from General Cao!" Seeing that Cao ** deliberately lowered his identity and put the place where the two talked in this private space, Qin Xu also understood that Cao ** must have vaguely felt that something was not quite right in the direction of Chang'an, and it was almost time to throw out the bomb, so he pretended to sigh and made a big salute in the car: "General Cao also knows that when my father-in-law Lu Qingzhou had no choice but to run out of Chang'an, he always thought about killing back to Chang'an and saving the Son of Heaven from danger. But regardless of the emergency at that time, it was to save the Son of Heaven, Chang'an is small, and it is not a place to live for a long time, but the old ones have been burned, and the Yuan family, who is the head of the Kwantung princes, is also interested in setting up another Son of Heaven in order to follow the dragon's work, and there is almost nothing in the world to entrust the Hanchen of the Son of Heaven, relying on the power of General Lu alone, Qingzhou's tired state, after all, can not keep the Son of Heaven safe, so it has been delayed until now, deliberately looking for an opportunity, in order to find someone who can be entrusted to fight the royal family. However, it was said that the news that General Lu stayed in Chang'an at the beginning of the secret agent who died was sent back, but someone actually used the name of the Qing monarch to do the thing that coerced the Son of Heaven to make the princes, General Lu was worried, but because Qingzhou was quite far away from Chang'an, although Qingyan and the two states were allies, they had a deep misunderstanding, coupled with the frequent disasters in Qingzhou, and they had to take the opportunity to return to General Cao's father and son, and ordered Qin to hold the state pastoral festival and ask General Cao for help! General Wangcao read in the face of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, the virtue of the princes of Guanzhong was the first time before, and everything was watched on the wall! In this way, General Lu is very lucky, Qingzhou is very lucky, and the world is very lucky! ”
"What!?" I don't know if Qin Xu's sneering attitude was too successful, chasing the Oscars in later generations, or if this news just hit the secret room that Cao ** had been planning for a long time in his heart, when Qin Xu said "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes", Cao ** was greatly moved, and even Qin Xu's words about the frequent catastrophes in Qingzhou were also deaf ears, and Cao **, who has always been very good at hiding his emotions, exclaimed unexpectedly, which immediately caused the soldiers who were driving with him to suddenly draw their knives and want to come forward to check, Just now because of carelessness to underestimate the enemy, if it weren't for Lu Lingqi's sudden strength, Qin Xu was almost killed by the enemy, and Dian Wei, who had been on guard this time, also reacted in a timely manner, with a pair of tiger eyes with a strong sense of vigilance, staring at the Cao soldiers around the carriage, looking for the best time to strike, just wait for Qin Xu's voice to start, and he could attack in response.
"A certain and Qin Master Book hit it off at first sight, talking about the past and the present, just talking about the prosperity, don't panic, retreat quickly! No one is allowed to come within ten steps of the carriage! Violators will be killed! Hearing the sound outside, Cao ** woke up from his surprise, looked at Qin Xu with a complicated look on his face full of "sincerity", and suddenly said, listening to the gradual silence outside the car, it was Dian Wei who also retreated because of Qin Xu's cough, Cao ** pondered for a moment, and said to Qin Xu: "What the Qin master book said Cao will definitely go to verify, but since General Lu has this mind, if he wants to go to Chang'an to rescue the Son of Heaven, it is not a big problem, he only needs to send a general, with the assistance of the Qin master book, and go through Yanzhou, it is not necessary, Why do you want to give this great work to Cao for nothing? ”
"Ahem, this is my lord, General Lu, is afraid that General Cao is busy with Yanzhou, and it is inconvenient to borrow the way, so he has no other intentions!" Cao **'s words were subtle, and Qin Xu's answer was also tactful, but it was a rare flash of embarrassment for Cao **. But isn't it, last time, Boss Lu took advantage of Yanzhou and sent such a large cart of jewelry and coins to your Lao Cao to pay for the journey, but as a result, if it weren't for Qin Xu, a latecomer, who cheated, he would have been hacked by your Lao Cao at the junction of Jibei and Puyang. With this lesson from the past, who would dare to borrow from you?
"This is no longer necessary to mention the previous misunderstanding. Zhong Ming is good friends with Ang'er, since he returned home, he has been talking about taking care of Zhong Ming in Qingzhou, and now Cao Mou has prepared a family banquet, one to pick up the wind for Zhong Ming, and the other to thank Zhong Ming for taking care of Ang'er, and Cao's old father will personally thank Zhong Ming for his rescue, please hurry! "When it was talked about, even a person like Cao ** who was as cheeky as Chen Liu's city wall couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, and said with a haha. Cao ** went to see Qin Xu in person before, and called Qin Xu into the carriage, making a heartfelt appearance, originally just wanted to see what Qingzhou was trying to do with such a big battle this time, but he didn't expect that not only did the assassination of Qin Xu happen before he arrived, but Cao Ren's actions also had to make people think that he was also mixed in, and after Qin Xu got into the carriage, he said that someone in Chang'an acted with Cao **, Mao Jue, Xun You and other close ministers who had been discussing and preparing for the major event that was seven or eight points the same. It also made Cao ** suspicious, before he got the exact news, as if he had just heard what Qin Xu said, he was not moved at all, seeing that the mansion was coming, he said a few words lightly, and returned to his previous hospitable face, and even became a little more intimate.
