After Liu Xie heard Cao Cao's voice, he hurriedly turned around and said, "Cao Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, come and sit down." In the face of Liu Xie's great change, Cao Cao sat directly on Liu Xie's side and smiled without saying a word.

"Over the years, my Han foundation has been developed thanks to Cao Aiqing's assistance, and I have thanked the prime minister here." After Liu Xie finished speaking, he really bowed to Cao Cao gently, Cao Cao didn't care about it, so he sat there and enjoyed today's thanks.

For some people, Cao Cao will naturally play with him, but for the puppet emperor in front of him, Cao Cao really doesn't need to be like this, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty came to find Meng De this time, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as saying thank you, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly." ”

"As a prime minister, you can see the secret in my heart at a glance." After Liu Xie finished speaking, he fell into a deep immersion, and only came back to his senses after half a ring, as if he was making a final decision, and met Cao Cao's gaze and said: "Prime Minister, I came to you this time to ask the Prime Minister to help me quell the rebellion of the princes in various places and unify the world of my Han Dynasty." ”

Liu Xie's words hit Cao Cao's heart, but Cao Cao was not a fool and continued: "Please forgive Meng De for being stupid and not understanding His Majesty's words, and I hope Your Majesty will make it clear." ”

Cao Cao is shrewd, but Liu Xie is not stupid, and naturally understands that Cao Cao wants to say it himself. In order for himself to be able to live, and in order not to become another Liu Wei, Liu Xie had no choice but to be ruthless and said word by word: "I implore the prime minister to remove all obstacles for me, including... Zhao Wang Zhao Yu. ”

Cao Cao, who had always been happy and suspicious, could not believe Liu Xie's words so easily, and asked again and again: "Why does Your Majesty suddenly want the other party, King Zhao?" Could it be that he was looking for Meng De to be happy. ”

"I will never make fun of the prime minister, after so many years, I have seen through everything, looking at my Han world, the only true loyal and virtuous minister in the world is Cao Gong. In the eyes of other people, all they care about is power, only I am a big Han country, and every one of them is eyeing my Han family, and no one can care about my Han family, my Han family's safety, and my Han family's safety like the prime minister... I'm the son of heaven of this big man. ”

After Liu Xie finished speaking, there was a sad look in his eyes, this look Liu Xie thought that he was well hidden, but he could not escape Cao Cao's eagle eyes.

I saw Cao Cao open his mouth and say: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, as long as I, Cao Mengde, am alive for a day, I will never let one person trample on my Han country, and I will never let one person slander the prestige of the Son of Heaven." ”

"Thank you, Prime Minister."

"It's not difficult to keep Your Majesty's country, or to get rid of that Zhao Yu. It's just that the power of the ministers is still a little short, and this requires the assistance of His Majesty to give it a try, but I don't know if His Majesty is willing or not? After Cao Cao finished speaking, he looked at Liu Xie with a smile, and his eyes seemed to be meaningful.

Liu Xie heard that a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and said seriously: "It's okay, as long as you can get rid of Zhao Yu, if there is anything to do, the prime minister just speaks, I will definitely agree." ”

Seeing Liu Xie's fierce face because of Zhao Yu's matter, Cao Cao was overjoyed in his heart, and said softly: "Meng De will not bother Your Majesty to do anything, but only ask Your Majesty to do one thing." ”

"What did you say, Prime Minister?"

Cao Cao said confidently: "I want Your Majesty to draw up a holy decree to summon Zhao Yu to come, and Meng De will send his subordinates a net of heaven and earth, and let him have three heads and six arms, even if he has three heads and six arms, it will be difficult to fly." ”

Liu Xie shook his head and sighed: "Could it be that the prime minister wants to use the trick of trapping Ma Teng to lay a trap to lure Zhao Yu to come?" But with Zhao Yu's cleverness, let alone me drafting a holy decree, even if I draft three or five holy decrees, it will be difficult to lure them into the city of Xudu? ”

Cao Cao said without thinking: "This... Since it is impossible to lure him to Xuchang, then tempt him to other places, as long as he can be lured out of Jizhou City, there is a way. ”

Liu Xie was curious: "Lured to other places? What is the Prime Minister referring to? ”

Cao Cao said: "Of course it's Jingzhou, Liu Biao is also a royal body, and the Cai clan in Jingzhou is allied with Zhao Yu, if you lure him to Jingzhou, there will be no suspicions." ”

Liu Xiezhi said with a puzzled face: "Although Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao is mediocre and does not want to forge ahead, but his Jingzhou soldiers are by no means the army of ants, if Zhao Yu is shallow in Jingzhou, I am afraid it will be like a tiger with wings, wouldn't it be even more difficult to deal with?" ”

Cao Cao smiled slightly and said: "Although the Jingzhou soldiers are not weak, but the Jingzhou soldiers who follow Liu Biao belong to the flow of ants, as long as Your Majesty recruits Zhao Yu to Jingzhou to participate in the talks under the pretense of the Holy Decree and Imperial Book, you are not allowed to enter with a large army." At that time, as long as Zhao Yu is captured, the other soldiers of the Zhao army will surrender without a fight, and the rest will not bother His Majesty to worry about the rest. However, for the sake of safety, Meng De will inevitably start to prepare other ways to prevent this tiger from escaping. ”

The corners of Liu Xie's mouth lifted and said: "I seem to understand what the prime minister means, let me think about it carefully and draw up a holy decree, and afterwards Prime Minister Lao will send it to you." ”

"That's the best, Meng Dejing is waiting for His Highness's good news."

Half a month later, a visitor from the capital suddenly appeared in Jizhou City, if ordinary people were in Jizhou, they would be buried in the market like ordinary people. However, this visitor from the capital appeared in Jizhou with the Zodiac Decree in his hand, and for a time, all the civil and military officials in Jizhou City gathered in front of Zhao Yu's mansion to kneel down to welcome the Decree. This person Zhao Yu is not a stranger, I remember that the last time we met was when I got married, this person came to congratulate him with the father-in-law Li who was killed by himself, if I remember correctly, this person should be called Xiao Liuzi, and he can be regarded as the confidant darling of the Son of Heaven.

"King Zhao took the order."

"Your Ministers welcome the Divine Decree." Although Zhao Yu is the king of Zhao, he still faces the holy decree as if he met the son of today, and the military generals under his command are different, and when they see the holy decree, they need to bow down and worship like the Son of Heaven.

At the request of the ministers of Jingzhou, Liu Cong, the son of Liu Biao, was specially appointed to inherit his throne and lead Jingzhou Mu. I knew that King Zhao and Liu Cong were allies, so I invited King Zhao to Jingzhou to celebrate the newly appointed Jingzhou pastor, hoping that King Zhao would not disappoint my kindness and give him. ”

"Zhao Yu obeys." After speaking, Zhao Yu stepped forward to take the holy decree and instructed his subordinates: "Quickly let people reward." ”

"Little Liu, thank you King Zhao." In the face of Zhao Yu's reward, Xiao Liuzi did not intend to refuse, but said with a smile.

Zhao Yu took the opportunity to say: "Little Liuzi, Zhao Yu has something to consult, and I hope you can tell the truth." ”

"King Zhao has something to say, please speak up, Xiao Liuzi will definitely tell the truth."

Zhao Yu took it to the house, and asked Zhao Yun to guard the door of the room so that no one could approach, and then he couldn't help but express the question in his heart to the little sixth son: "Is this holy decree really written by His Majesty himself?" ”

I saw that the little sixth son was sorry with both hands, and said very respectfully: "Please rest assured King Zhao, this is naturally written by His Majesty himself, and many years have passed, His Majesty's thoughts about King Zhao have not decreased, but are increasing day by day." So I want to take this opportunity to meet with King Zhao to catch up with the old days, and by the way, to get together the strength of Jingzhou for King Zhao, isn't King Zhao old with Jingzhou? It is said that it is a friend of the alliance, and in addition, His Majesty also said that it was thanks to the strategy of King Zhao with the help of his wife and King Zhao's daughter that he was able to keep the concubine and the child in his womb, so if he could, he also asked King Zhao to lead his wife and daughter to go together, so that His Majesty could thank him. ”

Zhao Yu swore and said: "Your Majesty has worked hard, I understand, this trip has worked hard for you, you go back and tell Your Majesty that I will definitely arrive in Jingzhou to meet him as scheduled." ”

After Zhao Yu finished speaking, the little sixth son actually seemed a little distracted, with Zhao Yu's mind, how could he not guess that he had something in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "You have something in your heart, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Xiao Liuzi arched his hand slightly and said, "Your Majesty has a secret decree for me to give to King Zhao." ”

Zhao Yu couldn't wait to hear this: "Oh? Whatever the secret is, bring it quickly. ”

Xiao Liuzi hurriedly said: "Don't blame King Zhao, because the stakes are very high, for the sake of insurance, this secret decree is not to write a holy decree, but to pass on the oral decree of His Majesty himself." ”

Zhao Yu said even more eagerly: "Oh, Your Majesty will tell you something." ”

Xiao Liuzi said slowly: "Your Majesty's dictation is to order King Zhao to use this Jingzhou to worship Liu Biao, together with Uncle Liu Huang and Jiangdong Sun Quan, to kill Cao Thief. ”

Zhao Yu rushed forward and grabbed the other party's collar and asked, "What?" Is this really His Majesty's dictation? ”

Xiao Liuzi hurriedly explained: "King Zhao, don't be surprised, even if you have the courage to tamper with the Son of Heaven's holy decree, Your Majesty said that this matter is too serious, and I am afraid of the edict back then." I'm afraid that this time there is some clue to be Cao Cheng... The Cao thief found out, so he used an oracle to act as a holy decree, presumably Uncle Liu Huang and Sun Taishou had already received the oracle. ”

Zhao Yu couldn't help but be shocked by the other party's words, his little brother, who had been afraid of anything since he was a child and didn't dare to make decisions, dared to secretly order an edict at this moment, inviting himself and the other two heroes to gather in Jingzhou and murder the big Han hero Cao Cao.

His decision is definitely not smaller than his decision to murder Dong Zhuo back then, this kid is not simple, he grows up quickly, no matter what, this time is a good opportunity for himself, and it is also a good opportunity to get rid of Cao Cao.

As long as it succeeds, the power of Cao's army will collapse in an instant, and he and the Son of Heaven will lead the Han court together, and those ministers who are dependent on Cao Cao will not be able to immediately become grass on the wall, perhaps in this case, he will be a generation of heroes who will rule the country again for the Han Dynasty.

"I already know the matter, you go back and tell Your Majesty, I will definitely go, but before I arrive, I hope Your Majesty will not act rashly."

Xiao Liuzi suddenly arched his hands and said respectfully: "The little one will definitely tell Your Majesty the truth, presumably Your Majesty will be very happy when he knows it." "Because Xiao Liuzi secretly presented the holy decree to Zhao Yu, so after conveying the holy decree, he urgently needed to return, and when Xiao Liuzi just left, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others immediately came to meet Zhao Yu.
